Notably, you're omitting anything about the role that intelligence collection and Parallel Construction play in prosecuting Americans for crimes which have nothing at all to do with national security, and which they have no possible way to defend themselves against the use of that information.
The model card also has prompt formats for context aware document Q/A and multi-CoT, using those correctly improves performance at such tasks significantly.
I guess that’s one way of looking at it but if you can only profit in a record bull market with historically unprecedentedly-low interest rates it’s probably a sign that you don’t have a viable business concept.
I've built out literally millions of square feet of commercial and healthcare sqft. (SFGH, El Camino, UCSF, Salesforce, Namco, Lucas, Gene, FB, Goog) (those are on my personal CV -- but the design firms I worked for built out pretty much every single tech site in SF, and the other cities for thes companies (LA, NYC,SF, CHI, and international sites)

I have ALWAYS been dumbfounded by how much per sf $

This scenario should be the posterchild for real-estate greed - NONE of these properties should cost this much - even if your lobby desks are built from 85,000$ Koa Wood Desks from hawaii that is illegal to harvest - and you have one of these in most of your reception lobbies on your MANY MANY floors (Salesforce)...

but here is the thing - all the businesses that died on Market and FiDi in SF - where high-end condos are all around, and other apartment buildings - there will be no walkability score for many of the apartments in those areas, and thus their prices should come down.

However, you'll notice that the building dropped 66% -- but any commercial (or residential) rental rates will certainly not decrease by that much (hedgies want to dump buildings (hence Park 55 and Hilton... with more to come)

-

Walkability is based on the ability to walk from residence to commercial, retail, grocery, entertainment, work, etc...

So if the first two levels of entire blocks of san francisco's market steet are all shuttered, non-interesting/iconic - why would you want to live anywhere near such an area.

Look at how lame the TwiXXXter building is now - all the shops that would have supported the employees are shuttered.

crappy vid, but informative of the number of shuttered places along market that just shows how depressing it is

Given that the plasma is several million degrees, it will radiate a lot of energy and heat up the walls even if it does not directly touch them. Just cooling the walls can heat up the cooling fluid enough to later produce steam with. AFAIK the Wendelstein machine is not configured for electricity production though, so the cooling is just cooling atm.
> you can only deliberately lose the domain

Or your can be me. For some convoluted reasons I had the contract email set to my company mail and the domain was paid for 10 years. I left the company in May and in September the registrar started to send reminders which were of course bounced.

Then around Christmas I realized something is wrong, tried to get the domain back but it was too late.

This was an unfortunate set of circumstances, all my fault, but "deliberate" is a bit too masochist :)
> A recent examination of US Tax filings (posted on YNews IIR) show that +1 million adults in the USA have the financial ability to purchase a home, and have not done so.

That doesn't seem like a good measure. There are a lot of people with means who would rather rent a space downtown that own a SFH in the suburbs. Those people would/should not be considered "regular homeowners".

To clarify, there are two separate notions of division-as-multiplication discussed here.

Modular division is straightforward to convert to a multiplication; however this is mainly for specialized applications, like cryptography and number theory. It's uncommon to want divide-by-2 to make the value larger.

Ordinary flooring division can also be converted to a multiplication problem when the dividend is bounded. This uses the "magic number" approach where you multiply by a rounded scaled reciprocal, and then do some work to correct the error from rounding.
I mean they weren't quiet, just drowned out.

There's this mindset of trusting dreams/drama/personalities more than verifiable processes, and as communities like HN have shown, even people in fields associated with better logic clearly are willing to discard all the caution they'd normally use because they'd like it to be true and someone is saying it is.

I feel like SBF actually represents this flaw wonderfully. A person who just does what he wants and has mostly been well enough off to dodge any sort of real consequences. He probably still thought he was doing nothing wrong and still does because the idea that he could be wrong is just not possible because he knows so much.

Honestly my already low opinion of groups like WHO/SEC has dropped tremendously with recent events and how they were handled on drama/media reporting rather than actual evidence and science. This rush to the story is hellishly toxic to doing things right, and the vitriol people will spew if you conflict with them on it is gross.
They currently run a bad-ass heatsink (which is one of the main challenges of this project, i.e., how to cool it), but eventually you will use that heat to convert it into electricity, yes.

For the German-speaking crowd here, the Alternativlos podcast guys were there twice and had lengtly conversations with the researchers there. Like, between nerds. Really cool, if you understand the language.

all fair points, but to be fair I don't necessary think this makes the most sense for an existing project for the reasons you state. I do think for a new project would best be able to design around the access patterns in a way that eliminate most of the downsides.
Is there a minimum viable size for a fusion reactor? If it scaled down ennough, they could just launch prototypes into space, and see if they explode.
The impression I've gotten talking to tech folks in Israel is that this is very serious, possibly an issue of survival for major tech firms. It's like having your entire manufacturing business based on China when there's serious talk of war.

Extrapolating a bit (and this is just me speculating), my guess is that the moves are happening early due to fear of a last-mover disadvantage. If you sit tight while everyone else heads for the exit, the door might be closed when you get there.
If I had no other way to navigate somewhere (which is possible!), I would rather pay for a dedicated satnav than put up with the downsides of a smartphone.
To be fair, prosecutors were trying hard to keep him out of it.
I think NI is the outlier here. I am almost certain that if there was a multi-decade conflict where police officers were _directly targeted_ for assassination, there would be limits on access to this data in the US as well.
It's not branchless if there are are any Jcc other than JMP because that's an opportunity for a branch prediction miss and a pipeline stall.
Hennessy and Patterson's Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach is the definitive textbook. They also have a 2nd textbook Computer Organization and Design. The former is more focused on people who might go after a Computer Engineering degree while the latter is more an exploration of microprocessor architecture relevant to a wide audience of programmers.

Previous editions are available free online and just as good for learning the big picture imo. Actually the older editions might be better for learning microarchitecture specifically because the more recent editions have cut some material on that in order to cover mobile and cloud computing.
> Members of the press, including counsel for The New York Times and the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, had filed letters objecting to Bankman-Fried’s detention, citing free speech concerns.

> The final straw, according to prosecutors, was Bankman-Fried leaking private diary entries of his ex-girlfriend, Caroline Ellison, to the New York Times. Ellison pleaded guilty to federal charges in Dec. 2022.

It seems someone at The NY Times is very sympathetic to him.
A governance body isn't the right solution. The right solution is what the Linux kernel did: copyleft with no CLA and tons of external contributors.
My best friend works for them in diagnostic sub-systems development. The product is still a long way off delivery with many systems being actively designed and refined. Basically it’s busy but will still be quite a while (3-5+ years at least).
yes, this is a fair point. there's no free lunch after all. without knowing more about what happened with Grab I'd say you could mitigate some of that with good management and access patterns, though.
Sadly, I don't think he was joking.
Amusing thing I remember in the aftermath of the Savings and Loan crisis. They over built commercial real estate in the South Bay. And after prices per sqft dropped dramatically. You could rent small office space for 60 cents/sqft.

Good time to be a small business. Bad time to be a landlord. Landlords don't create value, small/medial/large businesses create value. And excess rents are a real impediment to actual productive businesses.

So rents in SF/Bay Area dropping would be very beneficial to San Francisco.
Judge Orders Sam Bankman-Fried Back to Jail for Violating Bail Conditions
Great points. I too saw it as very sus that, instead of addressing the content of leaks from WikiLeaks and Snowden, et al, the United States went on an offensive, because apparently it's more important to cover up embarrassing things than it is to get one's ship in proper working order.

I have nothing but respect for individuals that put countries on blast. We all know they are corrupt in their dealings. You don't seize control of a territory and 300 million people by dotting your i's and crossing your Ts.

Like it or not, every sovereign government had to engage in terrorism and one-sided treaties against natives to "build its country". They are not moral actors.

I’m reminded of one of my favorite sayings:

You go to war with the army you have, not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time.

You may want to ignore that this this comes from Donald Rumsfeld (he has some great ones though: “unknown unknowns …”, etc.)

I think about this a lot when working on teams. Everyone is not perfectly agreeable or has the same understanding or collective goals. Some may be suboptimal or prone to doing things you don’t prefer. But having a team is better than no team, so find the best way to accomplish goals with the one you have.

It applies to systems well too.
The people saying that were presumably making predictions about whether or not he'd be found guilty with a jail sentence (which hasn't yet happened), not that if he does something as stupid as witness tampering he wouldn't have his bail revoked (which is what has happened).

Personally I always thought it extremely likely he would get a prison sentence, but I think you're being premature to act like people who didn't think that have already been proven wrong.
It isn't Chesterton's fence though. We removed the fence (wolves in your example) and have now discovered why the fence was there, and have now stepped in to build a new fence.

Also removing native species and sending the balance out of whack is different to removing a non native species that has sent the balance out of whack.
You last point there is nonsense. We can reduce division to multiplication, so we can say division is O(M(n)), where M(n) is the complexity of multiplication, even if we don't know what M(n) is. Note that big-O is an upper asymptotic bound, not an exact asymptotic bound (that's big-Theta).

In fact, one can also show that M(n) is O(D(n)) (where D(n) is the time needed to divide n bit numbers). So they really are big-theta of each other.

Ask HN: What's a good podcast or newsletter for tech leadership?
It's almost as if hard physical jobs, that are also technical, and customer-facing in weather extremes have a higher bar than coding. who wpuld have thought? About time the pay went up. These are demanding positions.
Okay, but he was, so.... this comment is pretty empty. And even if he wasn't, he made this music in collaboration with First Nations musicians. I don't think there's a taboo against people working with each other who aren't of the same ethnic background. Cultural appropriation accusations usually come up when someone who has nothing to do with a certain ethnic background starts drawing on it for something - and even then those accusations are often pretty empty.

How exactly is that calculated?
I think it's still pretty big worldwide. There might be fewer people at the games but it's still a massive industry.
This is a very common architectural smell, when you have uservices and "no-one knows how they all work". The whole point is that no-one can or should know how they all work; the fact that someone does in order to fix or modify the system is a strong signal that you've violated some of the rules - like single responsibility, and proper abstraction through API. But, in my experience, this is extremely common - debugging a pipeline of N microservices often requires running and building all N services locally. This is, strictly speaking, a monolith + network partitions + (infinite) build/deploy variation. An extremely challenging work environment that is ultimately beyond any mortal programmer's ability, IMO.
For a few billion USD you could build a real power plant of this type. Sounds expensive, but consider how much money nuclear fission did cost initially, and how much money we burn on other stuff, then it's not unthinkable to have somebody rich chip in and make it happen. (Germany just gave $10bn subsidies for a domestic Intel factory.)

I'd love to see them make a fork of the last FOSS version, just like Amazon forked ElasticSearch into OpenSearch.
If you know the divisor x ahead of time you can pre-compute 1/x at compile time, so that your actual compiled code never does the division--only your compiler does. Your actual compiled code just does the multiplication by a pre-computed constant (and the compiled code doesn't have to know that that constant was pre-computed as the reciprocal of x).
By "non-trivial word sizes," I presume you mean larger than a single word of most computers? My understanding is that modern BDD/ZDD techniques have gone a long way to showing how to do the entire operation in a single pass for most sized numbers. Such that propagating the carry information isn't really how it is done, anymore. (This is a genuine question, btw. I have been a long way from my VLSI classes back in college.)
Can confirm. Gave up a smartphone in 2020 as part of a re-evaluation of my relationship with and dependence on technology, and the immediate peace was incredible.
True, the networking causes trouble. I usually rely on a communication layer that addresses those troubles. A good message queue makes the two paradigms quite similar. Or something like Dask (https://www.dask.org/). Having your single-machine development environment able to reproduce nearly all the bugs that arise in production is a wonderful thing.
> extremely predictable if you follow the court with even passing interest.

:shrug: Sometimes I get surprised. But certainly if you are going to make a prediction, that prediction is not going to be "we'll do a 180 on our typical rulings on the 1st Amendment." That would not be extreme consistency or predictability. Most court precedent in this area is against this kind of restriction; me refusing to make a prediction is being charitable, it's leaving open the option that the justices might decide to do something weird.

If you really believe they're going to be predictable, then the situation I'm looking at is that the current Supreme Court (Conservatives included) hasn't exactly been kind to Internet regulation and has issued extremely broad rulings reinforcing the 1st Amendment. I'm not sure that not liking porn means that's going to go out the window; this is the same Supreme Court that recently ruled unanimously that Twitter wasn't liable for ISIS content on the platform -- even though I would hazard a guess that the Liberal and Conservative members of the court both don't love ISIS. There's a general trend here with how the court is approaching Internet regulation.

> These laws poll over a majority with Democrats.

I can find one source for this and it's a Conservative super pac specifically dedicated to "family values". I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just having a hard time finding any quality polling. Regardless, it still is not clear that the overall Republican party would broadly support ID verification online if it became a hot-button issue. Lots of things poll well in abstract before they become reality.

And I can't stress this enough, the Supreme Court does not simply parrot Conservative views. The members have their own definitions of what Conservatism means and their rulings bias towards their own definitions.

Checking a box while logged in is unequivocally superior to e-signature. What are you actually solving with e-signature? What bank requires you to Docusign anything to create an account or authorize a transaction? Do you e-sign when you read the Apple terms of service? You could literally stop using Docusign and replace it with nothing. It's there for old-school lawyers to feel secure and not have to worry about precedent which stopped being relevant years ago. Clicking "accept" on a little popup is legally enforceable for GDPR.

If you're doing contracts, how about a webform where you ask the signatories to answer 5 questions to prove they understand the terms then click submit? That is miles more legally defensible than an e-signature.
For flooring integer division with a bounded dividend and known constant, the idea is to multiply by a scaled reciprocal. For example with 32 bit division by 3, you might precompute 2^32 / 3, multiply by that, and then flooring-divide by 2*32 (right shift).

It gets tricky because 2^32/3 is not an integer, so you must round it. This introduces error; the idea is to show that the error is wiped out by the flooring divide. I did the monster math here:

GitHub’s Hardcore Plan to Roll Out Mandatory Two-Factor
Apple wouldn’t even tell me they refuse to ship a replacement AirPod (I have to make a repair appointment) until I went through their trouble shooting process.

The worst part is if they can fix my airpod, they will charge me $69 for the fix. If they can't, they will charge me $69 to replace the airpod. If I say its “lost”, they’ll make me go through “find my” and then charge $69 for the replacement. I’m considering putting it in a blender to speed things up.

In fact arguably that's the biggest thing missing from current AI models - you can't readily/reliably teach them new skills just by demonstration and explanation, only by uploading new massive training datasets (for which there's no straightforward way of knowing whether they contain enough data for the skills/knowledge to be absorbed).
> I don't believe any Google nor Chrome ad had self-righteous BS about privacy, "improving the web" or similar

I constantly see Chrome ads about privacy and security. Your argument also isn't consistent. Your complaint is that Mozilla has "failed" to achieve their stated goals. The quotes because they've definitely made progress towards that, but just not to your expectations. That is fine to have higher expectations, but you're literally discouraging Mozilla from working in that direction, where others aren't making those moves __at all__. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.

And can we stop copy pasting that line? You're starting to sound like a bot.

How has the United States protected its people in the past, what, 30 years?

They couldn't protect the World Trade Centers from a couple of cult members stealing planes.

They couldn't protect us from the water problems in Flint, MI.

They barely gave aid during Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters.

They let children die in schools every year, the biggest one Uvalde, TX.

By all means let's see the truth, but from my vantage point, America is not capable (or interested in) protecting her people.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make about LK99 other than feeling smug for some weird reason?

Maybe I was looking in the wrong place about people discussing LK99, but I've seen a lot of comments/tweets/articles/etc about it, and while there've been lots of optimistic discussions about how amazing a discovery it will be if proven true, and lots of people guessing whether it's more likely to be true, or fraud, or not-fraud but a mistake, I've seen practically nobody confidentially saying "this must be true". Have you? And even if you have, it hasn't yet been proven to not be true.

So... what's the point of your snide comment?
It is remarkable how easy they've made it to cleanly pirate Windows recently. You don't even need to run your own KMS thing, there are several public servers, and you just type in three terminal commands.

Totally different from the Vista/7/8 era where activation required real cracking software. It's an explicit signal that they don't really care about consumer licensing.

We need all crypto executives to begin sizing up jumpsuits for their role in creating unregulated crypto companies that do nothing other than scam people.
