ADA sham lawsuits have been a staple of corrupt lawyers since it’s inception. The civil enforcement mechanism is the biggest failure of the ADA. The taint has long been there.
Some car dealers have installed private car washes. Come in for a free wash, any time, as long as you own the car and are displaying the dealer plate. So at least in that case they're "paying" for the advertising.
People don't scale. Every human endeavor tends toward a Tower of Babel.

This is both universally true and surprisingly surprising to people.

Why should an internet site defy social gravity?
There's something uniquely social-media-y about a person posting a list of websites they don't enjoy the contents of or discussion around, and then posting that they've filtered them out in a way that only impacts them, and then that person getting questioned and challenged on their filtering.
What’s wrong with Google’s auto fill for Chrome? Seems extremely trivial.

> The point is that the primitives that you work with on GPUs are non-deterministic by design.

This is just blatantly wrong. There are _some_ operations that can be non-deterministic in some scenarios but they are not necessary.

GPUs are deterministic. If you ask them to add a million floats in order, you get the same result every time. If you ask them to add a million floats in some arbitrary order, then you may get different results every time. The distinction is that someone had to ask the GPU to do that. It's a choice.

> I mostly take issue with you phrasing it as a bug and using it to insult the authors.

It's a bug, whether it insults the authors or not is irrelevant. It's most definitely a bug.

I was worried about the 1000 search limit, and it has so far (since beta) proven not to be a problem. I use Kagi for all my searches on all machines and my phone and average 800 or so a month. I haven’t modified my behavior at all, and consider myself a heavy search engine user.

I have a theory that I would actually need to do twice as many searches with Google or DuckDuckGo or whatever, since the SEO spam would force me to do more term refinement. With far less of that (and a tiny tiny bit of settings tuning) I get better results much quicker. I’d test it but I have a job to do and can’t swallow the idea of going back to how bad the other viable options really are.

You can do that with terraform...
Even with netns you'll need to run some parts as root, so you'll need to use privsep. Network namespaces are a really cool Linux feature, they're great for using multiple VPNs for different things. But for the average user, I'm not sure if netns has great integration with common desktop environments and it's on the user to make sure they don't accidentally run their program in the wrong/default network namespace.

Tried out a few searches that I’ve recently struggled with on both DDG and Google, very impressed. Seems worth it, especially if I can get a license through work.

I wonder how they will keep their results shielded from SEO spam if they hit a critical mass.

Presumably Google would love to have useful results beneath all their ads, but can’t seem to win over all of the “organic” blogs.
Just anecdotal but, some of the 8-10 year olds I know are way into Roblox. When I mentioned I make computers do things some of them jump right to: can you make a game in Roblox. So there's the spark right?

- In the event that you are working with different cloud providers, Terraform is one thing to learn that then applies to all of them, as opposed to learning each provider's bespoke infra-as-code offering. Most companies stick to one PaaS/IaaS, but individual personnel ain't necessarily as limited over the courses of their careers.

- Not all cloud providers have an infra-as-code offering of their own in the first place (especially true with traditional server hosts), whereas pretty much every provider with some sort of API most likely has a Terraform provider implemented for it.

- Terraform providers include more than just PaaS/IaaS providers / server hosts; for example, my current job includes provisioning Datadog metrics and PagerDuty alerts alongside applications' AWS infra in the same per-app Terraform codebase, and a previous job entailed configuring Keycloak instances/realms/roles/etc. via Terraform.

On reason that Reddit is valuable is that it often contains information that, as far as I can tell, literally doesn't exist anywhere else. This is especially true for product category research. Other than Reddit posts, any product that is even vaguely not mainstream, the only information other than Reddit will be obvious marketing blog spam that doesn't actually help differentiate anything. Generally, I'll check wirecutter, and if Wirecutter doesn't have an article about it, then Reddit is the only other useful option. If it's the only option, the presentation doesn't really matter, although I disagree with you on how bad it is. I still quite like old.reddit on desktop. Although admittedly my mobile experience has been severely degraded since my old preferred app got killed.
> If you’re looking for a way to have peer-to-peer multiplayer without setting up your own server, have a look at Steam’s Networking API which also has a Godot integration via GodotSteam, or have a look at the Epic’s NAT P2P API. Both provide NAT hole punching support with relay services as a fallback.

Steam used to work this way iirc, but they now always use a relay. This is user friendly, because with normal peer to peer your IP address is given to other players. DDOSing, bringing down Twitch streams, and all sorts of unfun things can result from that. Of course, this does give steam your users' IP addresses.

Sure, because inhalers aren't just drugs, they are drug-device combinations.

If someone wants to make a generic, not only does the drug patent need to expire, but also the device patent.

But nothing stops a company from developing their own device. The issue is that it won't be a generic - it will be a new inhaler.

That's expensive to do.

The truth is thought by some to be defined by the winning side of an argument. If you can just defeat your opponents and declare victory, you get to say what's true and what isn't. This works in some areas, but physics remains stubbornly materialistic, at least when it comes to experimentation.

You don't need to be doing research to read an ML paper. With some general knowledge in AI you should be able to understand most papers.

And even then, sometimes you don't understand or care about their procedures, and you just want to look at the pretty results (check out this song they generated using AI!). There's even a very popular YouTube channel that focuses on this (two minute papers).

Finally, you usually hear about these cool papers via Twitter / X

Sociocracy (from the Quakers) provides an interesting framework: consent-based decision-making instead of consensus or authority-based hierarchies.

To call hierarchical authority "human nature" is to ignore not only theoretical viability, but also demonstrated present-day viability as well as modern anthropological and archaeological understandings of realities explored in our pasts.

Sadly most of us have bosses or subject others to it, and we bind ourselves to these structures by legal contract and risk being identified as insubordinate if we try to do better.

The punch line will be totally forgotten and the expose will seem cruel and vindictive. Just another terrible illustration of how AI imagery and fancy sounding research is just pure lies and nonsense.

No matter how cool and sexy sounding stuff like fusion energy or self cooling beer could be, the story is so unbelievable that even if it is true I can do nothing but wonder. Perhaps tech jumped the shark over a decade ago when a few MIT misfits thought to teach those guys a lesson with completely fake papers.

They were just saddened that they had to confess for the sake of the lesson which was never really learned.

You've moved the goal posts. You're conflating CUDA with GPUs. From Wikipedia:

> CUDA (or Compute Unified Device Architecture) is a proprietary and closed source parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) that allows software to use certain types of graphics processing units (GPUs) for general purpose processing, an approach called general-purpose computing on GPUs (GPGPU). CUDA is a software layer that gives direct access to the GPU's virtual instruction set and parallel computational elements, for the execution of compute kernels.

Is the issue we're discussing because of the GPU or is it because of choices made in software libraries?

The parent is right, there is a deterministic, reproducible way to solve these problems, so if determinism is a desired or expected property, then this is a bug. It's not an inherent problem like you make it out to be. The fact that "workarounds" are given in what you link prove this.
Sounds like a bad Citrix or RDP implementation.

Yes, it is never as good as native, but it's not that bad if done properly.

As a math major, I found computation unhelpful without intuition. Without intuition, what is the point of math? Why prove facts no one understands?
It looks quite powerful. I would focus on adoption and usability over adding any more features. I feel like there's a lot of value there already, but I'm not exactly sure how I'd integrate it into my workflow.

The CI integration sounds like the most interesting part to me, since I usually let things fail in CI then go back and fix them.

It's kind of in an interesting spot because it's not instant feedback like a linter/type checker, but only running it in CI feels like a waste of potential.

I hope it becomes a successful product!
Zig is very pedantic about how you're using your pointers and arrays, which c desperately needed.
I got a Samsung clp-320 color laser printer about a decade ago for $150 and, same as you, it's given me no issues both USB and network (local only). It even works from phones on my wifi which is nice.
That's true. It is something I'm observing with kids around me: they don't learn from books, they hate to read, but they consume video like there is no tomorrow, wherever and whenever they can. Inane stuff, but also really bad stuff as well as good stuff. Getting them to be selective is hard, but it is far less hard than to try to get them to read.

I really struggle with this, I would love to get my kids to read more (they are the ones I can influence the easiest) but it's very much an uphill battle. Their peer group is just like them, and 'reading is for old people' is pretty much how that whole generation sees it. They may well be right and I'm probably tilting at windmills but I'll keep trying. I wouldn't know how to get through life or run a business without my literacy and ability to write, it's what allows me to absorb knowledge far faster than I could do from any other means of communication. Video, in comparison, sucks. It is so low in information density that unless the subject is something where video actually enhances the information it is a distraction and bloat.

I am somewhat adjacent to businesses that sell superconductors. I get tired with every premature take I see, including Nature's. However, I am quite optimistic with LK-99. It has had a different scent from the beginning than prior STP SC claims. More than optimistic, I am excited because of this scent of legitimacy. The level of conspiracy necessary at this point to make LK-99 a nothingburger is a bit big for my taste. It's too soon to say exactly what we have on our hands here, but it is exciting. Anyone denying that without a novel argument has a suspect agenda imo. It needs further replication and methods development and it's only been a week.

I asked GPT to explain this:

>In the MoE approach, different "experts" or portions of the model are selected for different parts of the input data. The selection of which experts to use can be influenced by several factors, including the specific content of the input data, the order in which data is processed in a batch, and possibly even minor variations in the internal state of the model.

>This "expert selection" process introduces a level of stochasticity, or randomness, into the model's operation. For example, if you process the same input data twice in slightly different contexts (e.g., as part of different batches), you might end up consulting slightly different sets of experts, leading to slightly different outputs.
I've been shouting for years how google should know by now, if there is a relevant wikipedia page, it should be at the top of the results -- not number 2 or 3, number 1. Every time.

Likewise IMDB (not that I'm fond of the site, if there were an alternative I'd switch in a heartbeat) -- if I search for "bogart bacall" then the top six results should be IMDB and Wikipedia for The Big Sleep, To Have and Have Not, and Key Largo.

How google hasn't figured that out in the past fifteen years is a mystery.
