> How is this different to the current process, other than feedback is slower (if forthcoming at all) and less specific?

Let me rephrase your question: "how is it different to the current process, other than <the fact that it is different>?" :-). I would say that the answer lies in the question.
I hate this argument. Business owners don't say "40% taxable gains? Guess I will never make money again" It may surprise you but no matter the restrictions put on size of profit, people will still attempt to make a buck. All that changes is the strategies used and the amount of time REQUIRED to strategize. All of these things sound so horrible, but when most people all over the world won't ever be in a position to think about it, I'm less sympathetic.
WeWork goes from $47B valuation to ‘substantial doubts’ about its future
It is a very versatile piece of software indeed. The minimal mode window is a great pop-up calculator that can do a lot, including conversions and working with physical units.

Highly recommend!
As we don't yet, so far as I know, have a testable hypotheses for the necessary and sufficient conditions for qualia, I think we can neither confirm that any given AI (or animal, including both cattle and other humans) does or does not have it.
Bit of a generalisation there, how many of us in the west were against and protested against the various wars we’ve been involved in and been basically just ignored because the government just does what it wants?
I think the parent posts meant that whoever reviews your banks 2FA should say "that is good" would also look at the SMS system and say "that is good".

If they are only doing it to tick compliance boxes then there is probably not much motivation to do it better. Those systems are security theatre.
> However wars should never been seen in a totally negative light

Ya of course! War is great, it pushed also industrial output and plenty of investments in researches. Plus it gets rid of the weak too! (This paragraph is sarcastic, I've to write it because many probably won't understand)

You should have a word or two with the families of those that lost their relatives in the plenty wars that lacerated this planet recently

or maybe finance yourself a trip to Iraq, Afghanistan or Syria to see how well established these countries are.

> some would argue that wars today are more todo with bringing areas of the planet up to date

Nobody argues that you're the only one. Also because it's clearly a false statement and a total misinterpretation of the war.

Have you ever had a look at other wars or you're taking Ukraine as example only because is the only one that you know about?

Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Congo, Libya. They're just a small list of countries that have been victim of wars recently. None of them is an example of how to rebuild things (or bringing them "up to date", also because they don't benefit the plenty billions of dollars that the US is sending to Ukraine.

but if your theory is really correct, why don't you move to Afghanistan and enjoy the western style of living that was brought there thanks to 20 years of war?
Not sure this one is actually valid. You can't infer a type. Maybe in C++40 where types are so 30s?
That is a single-blind test unless your wife consistently made two portions with labels, randomized which one you got, tracked your migraines against a blinded list of the labels and examined the data afterward.
Isn't that kind of true ? East-Asians have a minority contribution from Denisovans and Europeans from Neanderthals.

More like 'secondarily' descended from local hominids, but there was mixing for sure.

Yes. Can someone please write an LLM that can translate shell scripts to Python, for those cases when my shell script starts exceeding a screenful of lines.
Thank you, this was my first thought too, crazy that this doesn't seem to be the case.
I am speechless; I can think of a dozen or so glib responses to put down this line of reasoning in a combative way.

I will do my best to go against that instinct and instead say;

1) I don't believe necessarily that Crimeans are "Russian"

2) I don't believe that we can talk about a countries people as being homogeneous.

3) I don't believe we should be deciding what liberty people should be entitled to, that feels decidedly totalitarian to me, it would be very easy to decide that you dear reader are not entitled to liberty either, since you implicitly support *gestures broadly*.
I go to one about once a week to get out of the house (paying the ad-hoc rate), and they make it impossible to get a membership or even talk about how much a single person office would be (guessing out of my price range, but I actually have money to spend on it so I'd like to talk). Maybe if you could give them money they wouldn't be in trouble.
I'm glad to hear your friend is doing well now. You're a good friend for helping him in his time of need like that.
understandable, as each interviewing systems effectively selects people good at passing that system.

if your interviewing system is heavy on personality tests, you'll get people that are strong at gaming personality tests.

if your interviewing system is heavy on technology, you'll get people that are strong at gaming technology.

if what you get is not what you want then most likely this means that middle management and upper management are somewhat disconnected from the actual work that has to be performed.
Their dedicated office space is just absurdly expensive. I'd pay $2000/month for a 10sqm office when I can get a 20sqm office from the market for $1000/month. Of course the locations are not equivalent, but it's just not really relevant for those of us working remote anyway.

I keep notes in markdown in a local folder and sync across machines with git. I tend to use VS Code to edit/read because I like the way its search feature works, but really any text editor would work fine. I sync with a private github repo, but any git remote would be equivalent.

Git history and did tracking is obviously more useful for text-based formats like md than it would be for PDFs, but there's no reason you couldn't include PDFs or other small binary files alongside your notes in the repo.
It will likely be up to the EU to step up again.
those two are huge though, and part of any multilayered approach to security. I doubt if most people think "VPN and done"
You're assuming that they:

a) have long term leases

b) paid a reasonable amount for them

c) those leases can be traded

d) those leases are actually worth enough to be useful.
Nanoseconds since epoch, which means eventually it does loop around, so at the very least it's not possible to generate a specific wallet by knowing when it was first used.

Thank you for your remark. We try to address the issue in the Methodology section but it's a complex question. Roughly speaking, GDPR was passed to prevent merchants from contacting potential consumers without their consent. Well, we don't have anything to sell, we don't collect phone numbers or email addresses and we will never contact anybody.
Also good point. However, while commercial spaces in general are (as you say) underutilized, my gut feel (non-empirical here) from being in large cities is that there is somewhat of a boon for hot-desking / blurred-work-life-balance "office leisure spaces".

Without having your experience of breaking a commercial lease, I would imagine one avenue to explore would be trying to offload some of these leases to emerging companies doing what I refer to above.
Maybe reread the comment and ask yourself whether they may have meant humans are not descended from monkeys or any other primate living today.

We do share a common ape ancestor with chimpanzees. It lived between 8 and 6 million years ago.
It requires the final function to have a numerically reasonable finite difference gradient, which is somewhat different from what is commonly referred to as "differentiable" - eg. the insides of that function could still use non-differentiable/non-analytic functions.

It seems to be based on numeric.js, which is based on the classic Fortran UNCMIN [1] optimizer.

That would be funny if it were true.
I also got upset when I had to implement geoip tracking to block specific countries and thought about the people that wouldn't have access to the free service we were providing, which I thought could help someone bootstrapping their small business and potentially improve their lives.

That being said, many people consider sanctions as an act of war[0] and if you think of them like that, well obviously it sucks, it's war and war-like consequences always suck for the people on the ground.

Just make sure when your boss asks you to implement geoblock bans for sanctions, do what you need to do and not more like trying to block VPN users or other shenanigans. Don't break the law but don't make it harder for people on the ground to use their right to internet access.

I got 3 month for free with WeWork just before covid (hotdesking only). I went there 2-3 times and found it to be a significantly worse working environment than even a starbucks. The chairs were extremely uncomfortable, the acoustics of the room made it noisy. Really didn't see the point and can't imagine how they can get people to use them.

It might be different in other locations but at least the two locations I've visited in Hong Kong were really not great.
the reason the uk wants an encryption backdoor is because it's expensive to do statistical analysis of encrypted traffic. there's ways to make it more difficult, but if you own the certificate that a tls endpoint uses you can just open it and reencrypt it for the destination. this is called break and inspect. if a vpn uses different certificates and is built well, there would have to be a flaw (spyware, vulnerability, etc) on one of the endpoints for anyone other than you and the vpn to read the encrypted data.
We're talking about a dedicated gaming system here, iGPUs are pretty much irrelevant in that context. Things would be different in the context of a browser or word processor.

Besides, counting "1 Intel CPU sale = 1 Intel GPU" is misguided since that would count everyone using an Intel CPU with a dGPU as an Intel GPU customer, even if the iGPU sits idle 100% of the time.

Looking at a more representative demographic, the Steam users[0], Intel has a 9% market share, vs AMD's 15% and Nvidia's 85%. I don't know whether this also overcounts hybrid-GPU users (Optimus/DSG) into the iGPU bucket as well.

It feels older to me, too. It definitely gained a lot of momentum recently around Reddit's recent API pricing changes, but Google Trends shows it having a lot of interest in 2004 and then sporadic interest over the years.

https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=e...

I don't use Google Trends enough to know how to interpret that data, so maybe there's some quirk of Google Trends that makes it look more significant back then.

It would be awesome if some service had a similar feature to Google Ngram Viewer, but for content on the internet instead of books. Search interest isn't quite the same as how much it's being written in content.
> bad for their future profit/utility/quality of life.

Even EV's suffer this - it's a bore to have to plan your whole life around your EV's battery - detouring to charge up, remembering to precondition and charge up to 100% before you leave, telling the kids not to open the windows because it drains the battery like crazy, if you're travelling with another car, you can't stop in the same place because different cars need different chargers and charge at different rates, etc.

Heat pumps seem to suffer the same - arrive home from work at an unusual time, and a gas boiler will bring the whole house up to temp in 45 mins. Whereas a heat pump will take 6 hours to do the same. Worse quality of life.
As somebody who intimately saw on my closest ones and everybody else various horrible things that communism does to society and every single individual in it, and how the legacy of it can't be shed easily even after decades and multiple generations, you don't need to demonize communism a slightest bit .

Just point out well known facts, in balanced manner, and that's more than enough.
Remind me, why do we need a computer program that gets it wrong 49% of the time and has to be run 10,000 times to get it right almost half the time, and in questions that can be answered correctly 100% of the time with a different program? And taking into account the 49%-wrong program costs millions to train and requires gigantic amounts of data and 100+ person teams to create, which alternative programs don't.

What, at the end of the day, is the use of a computer stripped of computer-like precision and recall (as in the ability to retrieve facts from memory)?

Why are people so excited about a piece of software that works only for some people, some of the time, like homeopathy or astrology?

And what does all that have to do with science?
Joking aside, any acquisition of this size would take well over a year to complete. During that time, expect productivity loss from both sides. Still a decent chance that it gets blocked.

As a parent of two kids in the US public education system, I just don't view our system as being good in general. I will get around to your question in a moment.

Long before covid, we were doing "irreparable" harm to our children by continuing to educate our children under the current system. Way worse than Covid lockdowns ever did. We have all the science to show our education system is pretty much horrible. We have examples of exactly how to improve it but we don't have any stomach to do it.

So yes, I don't see the 6 month covid impact on education being a big deal when the whole system is screwed. We are doing the exact opposite of what good countries are doing to educate their population (e.g. Finland).

As to the comparison to LC. LC still doesn't have an underlying mechanism that can be pointed to. So saying people will recover isn't correct. My wife has an autoimmune disease, could she spontaneous go into remission? Sure I guess. Same with LC folks. But we don't know the mechanisms at work here.

We have all the science to get almost every kid back on track and ahead of where they should be if we had the appetite to fix it. The US just has no political will to make the education changes we need. But that has nothing to do with Covid
if you want privacy on the internet you have options. VPNs give you privacy from your local network and ISP and a little bit from the destination service, and that's it.

Working space. You can rent a single desk or multiple, and they charge you money every month. Bog standard stuff, has been done a million times all over the world.

The problem for WeWork is that they chose to grow incredibly fast, positioned themselves a a very high-end premium type of service, and funded it all with lots of debt and VC (mostly SoftBank) investments, despite nearly every financial professional warning them that they were over-exposed and any small disruption to their earnings would cause huge troubles for the company.

Then COVID happened, interest rates started rising and the demand for expensive rented offices dried up. Now they have a ton of bills and not enough paying customers to cover them all.
"Neumann’s ability to negotiate such rich terms was helped by the fact that his shareholdings controlled 10 times the votes of a normal shareholder, and he was able to argue for a higher price to cede control."

Correctly or, more likely, not - it seems the payoff was made in early 2021 at a time when valuations were soaring and there was a renewed push for an IPO. Neumann could have blocked that.

If I'm parsing a quick read of the data correctly, they backdoored an IPO in October 2021 at an $8bn valuation - and shares jumped 13% (so + $1Bn). A snapshot at that time could be used to argue they paid Neumann $x00 million to realise a multi-Billion dollar valuation and $1Bn+ growth in market cap.

Could they have forecast the rapid decline thereafter? Maybe some of those investors didn't care, as long as they got some return? If Neumann had dragged the battle out for another year, into 2022 when the markets went South, it probably would have cost WeWork a lot more on paper than whatever they paid him.

> No, because the government doesn't need to demonize communism to make it sound dumb

true, because the citizens of these countries are already uninformed enough about communism that they are indeed the one that make it sound dumb
Do you really think that they haven’t spent at least as much time thinking about this? The question would be whether those devices are replaced in less than the time it takes for natural degradation to cause problems, and both of your “not very green” dismissals sound entirely too pat. The entire reason we’re talking about this is that the industry has a huge problem with things having a service life measured in single digit years and a landfill life measured in centuries – making those easier to recycle would be a huge win because there’s no way that the current model is going to get the service life significantly closer to that kind of timeframe.
Oh really? Could you elaborate or point me in the direction of more information on this please?
A terrifying side-effect of AI is that everything is now potential "training data" and there's financial incentive to vacuum up any and all possible data. The situation on Windows is much worse than Chrome extensions (which have been attempting this for awhile) because of the near non-existent permission limits on Windows. I was shocked to learn just yesterday that Nvidia drivers were doing this. It feels extremely gross, like someone has broken into your home.
why would self host be better? Do you have a list of VPS that are better than mullvad?
Yes? The world is nowhere near perfect, but those mafia guys are probably actually going to protect "their" money from other gangs, and Google's obsession with your data means they have even more incentive to protect said data from other actors. In addition, of course, to the more general incentive to build features that can make more people (or in this case, organizations) choose Android.
> It'll be really hard to compete for AMD Radeon cards and nVidia itself against Intel if they aggresively price dump their GPUs and use typical megacorporation tactics to push out and destroy competition.

AMD's market cap has been higher than Intel's for the last year, and NVIDIA is more than seven times higher. Apple is twice again as big. Surely this logic goes the other way. It's Intel and AMD and ARM Ltd. that are at the mercy of the big players dumping their way to dominance.

But obviously that's not happening. The competitive landscape in this industry is just fine. More products means more innovation and lower prices and bigger markets. That's just capitalism 101, really.

> Where does this love for megaconglomerates consolidating whole markets come from?

Nowhere, because that's just a strawman. I'm sure people here would love to see a GPU startup launch a product. But we're talking about Arc in this thread, and that seems like a good product too.
There is a difference between a statistical analysis of a text to categorize by certain words or word groups and training an AI model to generate texts on the data used for training.

The later creates massive competition to human writers, the former is just an information for potential readers.

Credit where credit's due. Google moves against our best interests very often but this is not one of those times. Let's accept this improvement graciously. Other Android-based operating systems like LineageOS and GrapheneOS will also benefit.
I think it must be bizarre for why people want original artwork, and do not value replicas. You folks, _bizarrely_ fail to understand what is _historical value _ and what is _period-correct_ _substitute_.

First of all neither FPGA's nor MCU are not going to "react the same way to electric signals", cause contrary to what many think, FPGA's are not tabula rasa you can put any digital design to - there are limitations to what can be synthesized. Secondly, 6526 to 8251 is not only period correct, but also a change made by manufacturer themselves, therefore has almost zero historical impact.

There is no way a new design, with almost everything replaced by FPGA's can be called Commodore 64, as much as a Ford-T with a brushless electric motor and lithium baterries can be called Ford-T. You can call it replica, and sell it to those who to pretend they own a historical car, but for everyone who truly understand value of old and antique, that would be laughable.
