Not sure what you mean.

If all research is funded to support the idea that 1 + 1 = 4, where funding, profit and political power are centered around this being found to be true, you are not engaging in research at all. When powerful forces can --and will-- take you from being a funded researcher to being an Uber driver or stacking boxes at the hardware store, well, lots of people will find ways to find justification for 1 + 1 being equal to 4.

This happens in other domains as well. A pyramid sales scheme is one where early participants are aligned with the fraud because they need to both recover their investment and continue making money. My point is: People, under various types of pressures, will do such things.

When it comes to the range of matters generally wrapped around the "if we don't save the planet" fear mongering machinery, 100% of research funding is focused on promoting "1 + 1 = 4" ideas. Again, any researcher sticking their neck too far away from "The answer is 4" knows full-well they will suffer career/professional decapitation. You cannot say "Wait a minute, this stuff isn't right. We are nowhere near 4!". Well, you can. And then you are done.

This is conclusions-by-fear, science-by-fear, financial coercion, etc. Pick a name. They all apply in one sense or another.

Nearly everything being pushed today under the "save the planet" banner are lies. And the things we are being made to do and are planning to do under this manufactured narrative are between futile and down-right dangerous on many fronts.

The problem with the idea of scientific dissidents is that it isn't any different from someone going against a brutal totalitarian regime: Nobody speaks up because they know their life will be over when they do. The relative cost of speaking-up, when compared to praising the invisible clothes, is tremendously high. If you praise the emperor for the invisible clothes you get to keep your head and live whatever life you might be able to live.

That's the problem.
Why trust an entity that has historically been proven to be untrustworthy?

That's like getting punched by your bouncer and still expecting him to be on your side.
As many other have pointed out, that seems bonkers. We’ve spent $1,128 in the past 30 days for 6 people and that includes back-to-school supplies, some sports equipment for fall sports. We buy mostly organic fruits and vegetables, milk, beef, and chicken and have a meat protein in every meal. Even that seems absurd. We use Costco for everything we can, a weekly trip to Walmart to fill out the smaller things, and Sprouts for veggies and fruit.

If you’re paying that much for groceries, one trip to Costco or Sam’s Club will probably pay for the membership.
No person shall manufacture, import, offer to the public, provide, or otherwise traffic in any technology, product, service, device, component, or part thereof, that—

(A) is primarily designed or produced for the purpose of circumventing a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title;

(B) has only limited commercially significant purpose or use other than to circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title; or
(C) is marketed by that person or another acting in concert with that person with that person’s knowledge for use in circumventing a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title.

I'm not a lawyer but how does youtube-dl fit any one of these criteria? despite the name, it's not "primarily designed to circumvent copyright", nor is copyright circumvention its only use (though "commercial significance" seems to be doing a lot of work here).
Is there a consensus on how correct browser market share calculations are?

It’s just $10 quintillion. Not sure what they wrote it out like that…
There shouldn't be any issues catting the real initramfs with microcode into another file. I do that, as does another ZBM developer. What do you see when you try it?

I started ZBM years ago by hacking on the same grub script, then progressed to what it is now!
I spent some time this morning failing to solve this via an algebraic relationship between the orange and blue rectangles. I came home just now, opened my computer, and your insight above jumped out at me immediately. Brains are funny.
> Isolated skills and experience with bespoke, idiosyncratic ecosystems.

Sounds like a good tagline for my Resume.
I totally agree. All the frameworks that are “popping off” are mainly for marketing / blogs / e-commerce. None of them are a fit for SPAs or “web apps.”

Vite, an API service of your choice, and a static hosting platform is pretty much all you need for web apps.

It’s actually a big reason why I’m building https://pgs.sh — to cut through all the fat of publishing web apps. This doesn’t have to be anymore complicated than adding a public ssh key for production features.
On the other hand, the small team were taking a cut from every monetized server. Literally profiting millions of off Rockstar's work. If servers don't charge for entry, they charge for extra content R* developed for and sells in GTA:O.

They call it "donations", but it's not donations; they just copied the microtransaction model from GTA:O without actually making the content themselves.
Mostly agree with what you said, looks like you also got downvotes though. The current sentiment is robbing kids of being able to accomplish things and be proud of themselves.

Like many things, extremes are easy and the lazy advocate for one extreme or the other but what is best is a healthy balance.

At the core I think a lot of adults grew up believing success or failure is their identity, it's who they are. Instead of overcoming that false belief, they twisted reality so that failure is as good as success. Their and their child's identity is still the outcome if their efforts except they dilluted reality and made a negative to be the equal of a positive.
Xournal++ does the job, with a recognizably 90s interface. It stores a separate file with the overlay you create, and can produce a new PDF which combines the original file with your overlay. I use it any time I need to do something official.
I really like how the "Results" section immediately follows the introduction. It neatly accommodates the recommended reading order for scientific papers.
The open office trend happened before millennials started having careers, open offices are always an economic choice. It's cheaper to cram more people into less space.
It doesn’t stop with are these partials the same as other partials on a different note.

The ratio of the partials creates waves of differing complexity and periodicity.

This makes the wave easier or harder to comprehend by the auditory system.
This is fantastic, and seems like a great way for someone (me) to learn DS&A better. I can explain how a B+tree works, but if you asked me to code it, I’d freeze up.

I love databases and Python, so this was really interesting to walk through. Thanks for the post.
It’s most documented in the US, because in China and in Russia you can go to prison for documenting their activities.

Each of my children started hating school once the teachers started talking about the importance of having a 'growth mindset'. Some teachers prefer to moralize rather than teach, and the growth mindset unfortunately gives them the perfect outlet for that.
>the largest single spike in deaths of despair in human history

1990s Eastern Europe was bad but this is extreme revisionism and exaggeration.

The despair and famines caused by Stalin, Hitler, Mao all caused far more deaths.
> Canon, another printer manufacturer that sells all-in-one devices, was sued in 2021 for the exact same reasons as Freund and McMath's suit against HP - that Canon all-in-ones disabled non-printing functions when ink was low. That case was settled late last year for an undisclosed sum.

They should not allow settlements in cases like this. There should be a ruling and one that forces companies to not continue these bad practices.
Not true if I recall correctly, since around iOS 4 multiple processes can play audio simultaneously- it is only if a process requests exclusivity that playback from other backgrounded apps is stopped.
The point she is making is nonetheless correct. Nobody wants to associate themselves with Arabic/Muslim identities in today's Europe (except for those who have no choice), because of the many negative connotations.

I don't know exactly where it all went wrong, but in the post-WWII period Europe decided they were going to import millions of Muslims, some Turkish, some Arabic, a few even Iranian, and then somehow turned them into the new enemy.
That is not theft. It's communication. You can't "steal" ideas, information or facts [footnote]. To "steal" means to physically take someone's property without their consent.

Instead, you seem to mean a violation of copyright. Copyright exists "to stimulate artistic creativity for the general public good." "The main purpose of the Copyright Act is the public good of use and access to works of art, even if such a public good comes at the expense of the author of the work." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twentieth_Century_Music_Corp._...).

And then my opinion: In this age, copyright fails at that. It even has the opposite effect of resulting in less use and less access to works of art. I think it would benefit the public if copyright were abolished (or at least shortened to 20 years, similar to the amount of years that a person gets from a patent to exclusively produce and sell their invention before anyone may do that). I do think however that it should be a duty to mention the source or original author when sharing a work.

[footnote]: but you can neglect to mention the source, or uncover and share information someone wants to keep private

Current rate in the last three months is around 75%. (which demands LC or take home)
AWS and Azure is a much more niche skill set.

E.g., there's probably three orders of magnitude more engineers familiar with Postgres out there in the world than with DynamoDB.
I don’t think that’s a strong argument. It’s just function overloading that some languages enable, others don’t. Not a categorical difference.
Ehh, you're never supposed to drain an old school lead-acid battery below 50% either. And car engine controllers won't let you give it more gas to go past the redline.

The evil here is purely "pay monthly to unlock a configuration option", not the existence of such wear limiters. And that part is new.
Music scientist Phillip Dorrell has argued for the existence of currently hypothetical "strong music," a class of musical stimuli presumably discoverable by strong AI.

Any property, in this case the rewarding effect of acoustic stimuli in humans, can be powerfully maximized. There must exist patterns in music-space that would have profoundly greater impact on human minds than those our low-wattage brains can find. So through a really powerful search and optimization process that can more efficiently explore remote, undiscovered regions of music-space, we could get musical stimuli more intense than anything previously imagined.

What these songs would sound like is the real mystery. Would they sound anything like the music we're familiar with? Would they lead to musical wireheading?

It also seems a bad idea to measure musical goodness by, say, how many times humans will replay a certain audio file. If you use this measure, I don't think you'll end up with what you want at all.
Very=every.
Posted this three years ago, but its still relevant: My nothing to hide argument;

Nothing to hide is an incomplete sentence. Nothing to hide from who? Surely you want to hide your children from abusers and predators? Don't you want to hide your banking details from con artists and fraudsters? Your identity from identity thieves.. Your location from burglars, your car keys from car thieves or your blood type from rich mobsters with kidney problems..

we don't know who are any of these things. So we should protect ourselves from all of them, in effect we have everything to hide from someone, and no idea who someone is.

edit; let me just add the obvious, that the government and police, Google and Facebook, are made up of many someones.

It looks like this ranks things like freedom to invest, trade, etc., none of which are incompatible with socialism.
Driving to a Staples to print a recipe or some travel information every week or two sounds incredibly painful and inefficient (admittedly we're not talking months). (But I admit I don't like to be dependent on information on my phone for everything.) A laser printer connected to my computer at home is essentially free.

I don't know anything about Gonzalo, but are you insinuating that it's okay for people to be locked up because they are accused of being pro-Putin?
You're missing an obvious real estate incentive: where people live. Often in very nice school districts, which they don't want to see depreciate in value due to an outflow of people to different communities. People moving into rust belt cities and revitalizing them is great for the nation, but may come at the expense of someone who's highly leveraged into a $6m 3 bedroom in the Bay Area.

If productivity were the goal, then open plan offices would have been abandoned a decade ago after the nth study showing how poor they are for worker health, happiness, and productivity.
Why, the 1990s were the time when Communism finally fell, and something closely resembling a Western system (if you squint just right) was being built.

Also, times of tumult like the 1990s are always times of opportunity for those who has the energy and connections. Huge businesses have been built in Russia during 1990s, and many of them were built honestly, so to say, not by plundering some Soviet-era resources. Some obvious examples familiar for the IT crowd would be Yandex, Kaspersky, ABBYY.

I have an EEE 1005HA laptop with N270, 2 GB RAM and an old SSD. I'm running the latest Debian (it is the last version to support x86-32) with Xfce and I'm using it to read books in fbreader and Okular, play podcasts and SD videos with MPV, read IRC (via SSH). Actually it is completely useful except web browsers -- even simple pages which have not changed much since the laptop was new (such as this site or Wikipedie) are pretty slow in modern Chromium/Firefox; "modern" webpages are almost unusable. You can use links2 -g (in graphics mode) or Dillo, they are fast, but the usability is lacking.
Or offer a shorter warranty to people who enable the feature.
I'm not sure you realize how proprietary LLMs are being built on.

No one is doing secret math in the backend people are building on. The OpenAI API allows you to call functions now, but even that is just a formalized way of passing tokens into the "raw LLM".

All the features in the comment you replied to only apply to the web interface, and here you're being given an open interface you can introspect.
>People with ADHD struggle to focus and procrastinate often.
>But everyone experiences this.

Living in a "modern" society, complex, fast, competitive-driven, with 24hr news and fake-news feeds, etc etc etc.. who can really avoid this "problem"?
I suspect so many "mental problems" are in reality others kind of problems, diguised as mental, and many solutions are a cure for symptoms but not a remedy for -real- true causes, clearly with enough of a stress or situation sure even the psiche will suffer.

Well personally I'm cutting out as much consumption as possible, how is inflation not resulting in big drops in people spending?

You know what causes a downward spiral? People stop buying things, sales drops, layoffs / cuts, people buy less, etc.

I see companies freak out over 1-2% drops in sales, how is inflation not causing people to drop consumption by 10%? I don't travel, I'm eating out WAY less, I am price/bargain hunting far more. I never buy gas without gas price map checking. I'm holding back on as much purchases as possible. I don't even think about buying any clothes not on sale. Hell, I basically don't buy clothes unless absolutely needed.
Quality and depth of particular types of training data is one difference. Another difference is inference tracking mechanisms within and between single-turn interactions (e.g., what does the human user "mean" with their prompt, what is the "correct" response, and how best can I return the "correct" response for this context; how much information do I cache from the previous turns, and how much if any of it is relevant to this current turn interaction).
p.s., Rather than downvoting it would be more productive to supply evidence of contrary views. I'm happy to be proven wrong. It happens constantly.
Russia's sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss is worrisome. What can bring some hope for the future? I mean Russia is not going to become a western style democracy anytime soon, but some kind of normalization would be welcome. Maybe after the current generation of the KGB guard Putin/Patrushev/Bortnikov... retire? They're all in their 70s ...
Or even fill the forms of the existing PDFs... I'm struggling with many PDF forms, usually from various government agencies. They all seem to require Adobe Reader and can't open them anywhere else. And the few that I can open and input the values have broken field calculation (for example they won't add values from field A and B into field C).
I guess if it works for you but I do not see the appeal to this at all
I'm 34. I was diagnosed with ADHD at 2. Also, I was diagnosed with Asperger's at around 12. I ended up in alternate schools 2nd half of 8th grade. I went to a specialized autism spectrum disorder school starting 10th grade. I've been disabled and I collect SSI since I graduated. My meds are free with Medicaid.

With all that out of the way, I find it silly when someone making 100k a year or whatever in tech all of a sudden is following trends without knowing it and during the pandemic "finds out" they "can't focus" and therefore has ADHD. They need expensive Lisdexamfetamine to get that raise or acknowledgement at work... while I'm here struggling to function in my day to day life let alone take on the responsibilities of a job which the thought of absolutely destroys my brain.

If your executive function isn't impaired and you have no issue just "doing things" then I'll say you don't have ADHD to the point of requiring medication. You might, you very well might... but it's extremely hard as an observer to all of this to feel we share the same struggles.

People with ADHD focus on EVERYTHING. They don't procrastinate in that "oh I'll just put this off" care free kind of way. They do it in a "I'm overwhelmed and I can't, I just can't... oh shit I put it off for too long now I HAVE TO!" kinda way. You'll notice that a person who has been diagnosed with ADHD very early and has had therapy and been on and off medication (vacations) multiple times will be extremely aware of things and very self aware but they still under some extreme situations (personal and variable) they still can't "do" some things just because this disorder is a physiological difference.

Imagine having the motivation, the ability to simply do things, as a depressed person. Okay? But you aren't depressed. But everyone tells you that you are because that is how society sees your symptoms... but it's ADHD, it's your defective fuel tank. Some days, out of the blue, your tank is working because you found an angle that tricks your brain to do stuff. Other days you need to try what feels like 500x harder than other people to do simple stuff.

Yes, you could of covered this up and masked it your entire life. You might of had the ability to "suck it up" as it were. And then as soon as you had free time to introspect you have doubts to the amount of effort you had to expend to get where you are...

BTW, I can't stand articles that are like "how to use your ADHD as a super power". It's not, it's fucking not. I feel like most of those are written by people entranced by their new found medication hyperfocus and don't have the self awareness to know when they are just opening themselves up to exploitation. I refuse to be exploited just because I can get tons of deep work done all day without a break without realizing the passage of time. That is not a super power, that is literal mental disorder and time blindness. I want to be told I don't have to do that and to take care of myself to not burn myself out.
Honest question: how are you monetizing? I don’t see a single ad on the website, but I have not tried to use it to edit any document. Are they being injected at the time of edit?

Yes, it's mentioned in the site guidelines:

Please don't pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Find something interesting to respond to instead.

The comment picks a word out, then claims the book is 'framed as' that (it's not) and then pirouettes to exactly the sort of culture flamewar rehearsed talking point it wrongly accuses the book of engaging in, complete with the URL barrage such comments often include. Absolutely none of it has anything to do with Islamic architecture's influence in Europe - the topic of the book. As a first comment, it successfully kills any chance we'd get an interesting thread.

The people who flagged it were right and the people who vouched for it were mistaken.
