They're talking about the speed of the internal engine, not the display. So the display could still only be showing 60 frames to the user each second (or 120, or anything) but the internal engine is running at 6000fps.

Plenty (maybe nearly all?) of games do this because modern engines decouple the engine speed from the display speed. In older systems where you knew the engine was only going to run for a specific game on specific hardware (e.g. a SNES or GameCube or PlayStation), and you knew you were always going to be targeting 30fps, no more no less, you could pretty safely assume the game would _always_ run at 30fps and could use a "frame" as a unit of time. So if you want some in-game action like a melee attack to take 1 second, you could just count 30 frames and you would know it was 1 second long. But if somehow this game was later run at 60fps, that same attack would now only take .5 seconds, since there were twice as many frames in a second now.

So if you took a game like this meant for 30fps and ran it at 60, everything would just run twice as fast. You wouldn't actually be able to play the original game at anything higher than the original frame rate.

What they're saying here is that they decoupled the two, where originally they were coupled. So now the game can run at high fps and feel smoother than the original lower fps rate, but the gameplay is still at the original intended speed.
Marketing Firm Klaviyo Files for IPO Disclosing Profitability
Sure, though that really began with the abacus. A skilled abacus user can perform calculations faster than most people can with a calculator. They practice until it's all muscle memory. I think this demonstrates that there's actually very little intelligence involved in arithmetic.
Yeah this is where I'm at. I feel powerless and unable to actually make change. I care deeply, I'm just hopeful that Signal, WhatsApp and Apple stick to their principals and don't break encryption. Using Android I could hopefully sideload Signal anyway?

The worst part of it is that I'm not even convinced the Tories are going to lose the next election. People have such short memories or choose to forget the scandals come election time.
DC will kill you also, but more in the "having a hot electric knife pushed into you" way instead of the "shakes you so fast you blackout and die" way that AC does.
A lot of discussion around has been people disingenuously calling their software open source when it isn't.

I have a less of a problem with people openly restricting their software to non-commercial usage only.
Terraform was (and I assume currently, OpenTF) under an MPL license, which is not currently compatible with the approved licenses that the CNCF supports: https://github.com/cncf/foundation/blob/main/allowed-third-p...

For them to get accepted into the CNCF would require relicensing a large amount of MPL work. What's always been confusing to me about Hashicorp's change and any subsequent relicense of OpenTF is that I know for a fact not everyone who contributed code to Terraform signed the CLA and allowed permission to relicense.

I suspect if OpenTF tries to relicense to a more permissive license like Apache 2 (rather than less in the case of BSL) license we might see some fireworks.
Japan also has its own nuclear industry; they are likely a few months from constructing a nuclear weapon if need be. Their constitution limits their military to self-defense though, so they don't have a doctrinal need to build nukes.
Sorry to say, the ideas in your comment are false. It's engineering hubris at its worst.

Primarily, this idea that we've written it all down so we'll never forget it, is not true. Advanced technology requires industrial infrastructure and gobs of tacit knowledge that absolutely can be unlearned at a societal level. It would be quite easy for us to forget how to build a nuclear weapon (much less a nuclear reactor) or a microprocessor. Sure you can learn the conceptual framework and think you know how to do it, but when it comes time to actually pull it off, you're going to have to figure out a lot of the secret sauce again--and that process looks like redevelopment, not just filling in some gaps.

And as that development process will require the coordination of millions of people to set up and maintain the supply chain of materials and logistics, it won't be possible in an unstable society that doesn't have the natural endowment
of cheap energy that we've had for the past 100 years.

For one paper that explores this, see "Tacit Knowledge, Weapons Design, and the Uninvention of Nuclear Weapons" (1995): https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/230699
I'll pray for you.

(Consensus protocols are your most bizarre example because they're one of the definitional things that needs to keep working no matter how hard or fast a non-quorum of members dies.)
The phrase "improve our thinking" appears, which can be understood as the article author's clarification about what "make us smarter" refers to.
> People are upset that they can't profit off your labor without a license?

No, open source licenses are, in fact, licenses.
"But your honor, it's obvious that we can't actually provide what we said we'd provide, so they should have assumed we would do less than that."

No. It's not on the customer to decide what a reasonable interpretation of the company's offering is. It's up to the business to inform the customer clearly.
Why Starting Your Investor Updates with “Cash on Hand” Information Is a Major R
I don't think you made your point any better.

You're talking about unwritten AND unverbalized social contracts.

Entering a restaurant that has salt on the table is nothing like me entering into a written agreement for unlimited salt from a salt distributor.
Same here and I've thought about this, but the cost savings of doing less winter laundry for example are in the end miniscule. We pay way more for water than for sewer.
Awesome to see how enthusiastic this community is! We at the LF are excited to work with the wider community to bring them under neutral governance like our many other foundations/projects. On the CNCF side, we welcome an application through the official processes when they are a bit further along with establishing their initial governance here: https://github.com/cncf/sandbox
Does it do that because it can check it’s own reasoning? Or is it just doing so because OpenAI programmed it to not show alternative answers if the probability of the current answer being right is significantly higher than the alternatives?
What are some Paramo jackets available in the US? This brand is unheard of here but I've seen it mentioned in Scottish winter climbing.
That sounds right. I appreciate the added detail.

I learned what little I know on this from John McWorther's book "The Power of Babel: A Natural History of Language":

I largely agree with this (and especially your first and last points!)

I'm intruiged by your second bullet. What have you seen in the way of test frameworks and test data that's been beneficial? I will admit, a lot of my iteration has fallen into the "tweak till the demos look good" camp...

On LangChain, I'd say it slightly differently. It is a fantastic tool for getting up and running with something quickly, and for giving a high-level overview of the pattern and components you will need. That said, it is pretty awful for scaling or customizing. I (and many other people I have talked to) benefited greatly from starting a project with LangChain, but then eventually re-wrote ~everything in the stack piece-by-piece, as needed. As I mentioned in the post, the LangChain loaders are the most valuable piece for me, if not for direct use, at least as a starting point of working code to build various integrations.
What It's Like Living in the Coldest Town on Earth
> people always howl that "its no longer open source"

That's a legit complaint, particularly if someone contributed to it, gave feedback, was part of the user community, depended on it etc and would have chosen differently it they knew it wasn't open source. You changed the terms from "everyone can profit from this" to "only I can profit from this" which is a pretty big change. It's your right, but it shouldn't be surprising people don't like it.
Then take a look at GnuStep or WindowMaker.
Just don’t go fast and chip your teeth.

From experience
HIPAA doesn't even completely accomplish that. It it pretty narrow in the types of businesses it covers. There are a lot of retailers, tech companies, and health-adjacent businesses that aren't covered under HIPAA.
Yeah, this won't be much of a trigger to action, if the various shenanigans around public protests and continuing oil exploration hasn't.
Great video - thank you for this!!

I wonder if we could build a huge floating "island of plants" in the great pacific garbage patch?
>We’ve observed that customers like these frequently consume thousands of times more storage than our genuine business customers

There's something abrasive about implying that customers paying and using capabilities of their highest tier as non-genuine.

Conversely, Dropbox never sold this plan as being available forever, and the transition plan seems reasonable overall I suppose.
Is GPL vs. MIT even relevant in this case? GPL only requires providing sources with the distributed binary, but for server-side code you don't distribute the binary so don't have to publish sources. The whole point behind the AGPL is to close this loophole.

Further I don't think the change to GPL even fixed the author's original concern of something like AWS taking it and standing up a service on it. The GPL wouldn't prevent that because again, no binary distribution.

I don't doubt that the author was told this by Sid at OCV, but it seems like a misunderstanding on both their parts of what the licenses actually require and don't require.
Money looks like a perfectly good reason to me.
"I often found myself wishing I could have longer underground belts in Factorio."

I hate to beat the modding horse in to the ground, but, yeah, I'm pretty sure there are mods for this. Try searching for "belts" on the mod portal and you'll probably find a bunch that do what you want.

In my experience, whenever I've wondered if there might be a mod for something I wanted, the answer has been "yes, there already is one, and more."

It actually takes some serious creativity to come up with an interesting idea which hasn't already been turned in to a mod in Factorio.
What this, and the article leaves out, is the US is a collection of 50 states. With 50 separate legislatures and 50 separate law enforcement mechanisms. That's why our republic isn't "worse than it is," we're not bound by waiting for the federal government to solve problems, and probably shouldn't examine the situation through that lens either.

Furthermore, I'm not sad because they don't understand, I'm sad because they weren't _taught_ these subjects in school. If the purpose of public education is to produce public citizens, then we've failed miserably. Meandering articles castigating unfounded notions of "corruption" are looking in entirely the wrong direction.
No I meant this is under BSD, and they aren’t even selling it.
I don't know how the US treasury and the Fed can pump that much money into the economy and you don't think demand changed at all. You know the basic definition of inflation is having more money than goods and services?

Another one of those fertility looks that doesn't even attempt to correct for the birth age move even though it brings it up at some point.

Basically, none of studies attempt to calculate fertility rates while we are in the middle of birthing age moving up. If looked simplistically, if people suddenly decided to have kids at 40 after they used to have them at 25, you get 15 years of significantly reduced fertility. It's not as clear cut today, but the figures are probably somewhere in between.
Are the Labour party even against this though?
Nah, most people would probably not think of unseen frames being generated unless you're into studying your graphics performance.

It also technically does make a difference in some games. Even if the frames don't make it to the screen, if your mouse polls at 1000hz then you can get more precise input tracking by rendering up to 1000fps. It's something only really noticeable to professional gamers. But pro CSGO players are positive they can feel an improvement when running at fps more than double their monitor rate.
Several versions ago, there was a mod (maybe called "homeworld") that had a sink of you sending various resources through a portal back "home". It started simple with N iron plates, but then they wanted 10N oil barrels, and eventually red circuits. It also added some farming resources (which were affected by local pollution, so you had to plan where to put them). It was fun to have little goals, but I don't know that it's been updated recently.
are tea bags even necessary? people managed drinking tea before plastic was invented
Tea bags used to be made of fabrics such as cotton, silk, etc, it's not like we don't know how to make them without plastic.
Decades, most likely.

With that, the length it currently takes for an Indian national to obtain a green card is ridiculous.
The thought process behind being compelled to provide a password is that you can be compelled to provide it to (indiscriminate) computer; which is currently thought of similarly to being summoned, as opposing this would be contempt of court or obstruction of justice.

Forcing someone to do something without payment and to their own detriment should run afoul of both the 13th and 5th amendment respectively; but if it was already reasonably and obviously known that an encrypted drive contained CSAM or national security secrets, and you have already been duly convicted of that, then it would not apply ("except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted," ), and you can be coerced into the "labor" of decryption - although double jeopardy would seem to apply, so you cannot be further charged for anything found, once decrypted.

I suggest making your passwords themselves incriminating, just to throw in another constitutional hiccup.

Not that any of this would matter in practice, but it is quite a legal thought experiment.
We've been over the data so many times that there isn't really anything new to say about it. Insisting on revisiting old arguments is itself a rhetorical tactic that superficially resembles argumentation but is really just a time-waster.

One could simply refuse to engage, but that cedes the field to the people using in the easiest talking points. That "field" consists of people whose opinions matter, because they vote, but continue to consider the situation "unproven" despite scientific evidence overwhelmingly on one side. It becomes entirely a matter of persuasion, almost completely divorced from the actual data, since anybody capable of being persuaded by the data already has been.
I haven’t used textual so I’m not sure if these are exactly the same type of thing, but for Go clis it is worth checking out the libraries that the folks at https://charm.sh/ have created.
Counter-cultures aren't counter to whatever was mainstream 20-30 years ago, they're counter to whatever is mainstream today. Actual socialism is not and will never be well represented by corporate media, but is actually fairly common in the general population. On the other hand, those who are called (but do not call themselves) 'TERFs' seem like the perfect example of a counter-culture.
Salesforce – Artificial Intelligence Acceptable Use Policy [pdf]
Im a student and have been slowly messing with other note taking strategies for class. I switched first to joplin for md and html which was jeads and shoulders above google docs for speed and organization. This semester im giving obsidian a shot for its links and an automatic flashcard plugin, hoping it helps me review quicker and gets me to think about how these topics connect instead of just copying information from start to end. But admittedly i was convinced by one of those "my second brain changed my life forever and cured cancer" videos

So far its been good and an improvement, thanks to md im taking great notes fast and efficiently and im putting more thought into connections. But all the videos and posts claiming its changed their lives or something is a bit much. I cant imagine it being that much more useful outside of school.

On a side note, any other useful programs/techniques feel free to share.
Yeah it's funny, after what feels like at least a solid decade of on-demand audio I'm finding myself seeking out more live audio wherever I can find it. Miss the feeling of at least passively participating in something. I think the isolation of the pandemic kicked some of that into gear.
Google tells me Jim Davis (the creator of Garfield) has a net worth of $500 billion. That's the kind of money Watterson turned his back on.

And so, we'll never get to see the live action Calvin and Hobbes starting MacCauley Culkin and Jim Carrey as a wise-cracking tiger, nor any of it's sequels.
In my book, mirroring what a friend recently told me about instruments: Learn Python. Ignore everything else for 1-3 years.

The main drawback is: You won't be able to write 10^3 - 10^5 events per second throughput services. That's where you need Go, (weird) Java and C++. But I don't think these are your current main problem.

However, Python exposes you to a lot of very valuable concepts in the programming language space. If you know Python well, you easily know 80% of the language fundamentals of Java, 70% of Go or Ruby and like half of Haskell or C++. And the other half of those languages is mystical wonderous ponderous voodoo magic.
The CNCF has made exceptions on their license policy before, specifically for MPL based software. It'll probably be easier for OpenTF to go through that process than to relicense (which is likely not even possible for anyone other than Hashicorp).

I am not sure I understand what they (the business behing "authentik") hope to gain from having their Open/Libre variant available under MIT instead of under GPLv3, when they do have a fully proprietary ("you may look at the source" or not, meh) alternative that they are trying to sell INSTEAD of the free variant? Is it because they hope that MIT-licensed software is more readily adopted by businesses, and they hope to get their foot in more doors for their proprietary "premium" version that way? Or is there something else/in addition to that that I cannot see?
This sounds like the equivalent of a gas station attendant calling themselves a petrol product distribution technician.
Indeed, I don't understand it, especially when it's a back-end service they're running, not even something they are modifying and reselling. The GPL is completely safe for that.
Totally agreed -- and thank you for bringing up Hudson, which I have been concerned is being broadly forgotten!
Thanks for posting the exact questions. I apologize if it came across as what the quotes means quoting from their questions. I was making a point with an example, which stands, that the answer to the latter question requires much more knowledge and deliberation than knowing a simple fact.
I use it to generate repeating code patterns (like parse this list of numbers into this sum type). Or generate an FFI for something. Or ask general questions about things related to programming, which gives me directions to look further. Or I use it as rubber duck. But most programming is just done without LLM assistance.
I've always thought FERPA's main utility is in protecting professors from having to field phone calls from helicopter parents.
In this post, we explore problems involved in LLM deployment, from GPU shortages to bottlenecks in model performance. These problems have inspired recent developments in distributed training frameworks commonly used to train LLMs, notably ZeRO-Offload. Here we give an overview of ZeRO-Offload, and in future posts we describe its benefits in depth.
Ah, OK. That doesn't really count as "privacy-preserving" in my book, but I understand what you're saying.

If we could get this kind of energy invested into shared libraries...
1) If they're only using on disk indices, it'll be slower to look up any one record than it would be if the index was in memory (particularly true if a good chunk of the data was in memory also)

2) The operation of retrieving a full row of data is more expensive in a column based db than in a row based db, because in row based the data for the row is contiguous on disk. So row based is likely optimal if your data size works with that architecture. (And, to be clear, row based _can_ work with billions of rows, if you're thoughtful about what kind of querying you'll be doing against such tables, and how you maintain them.)
"How am I supposed to do that?"

"Well, I've got these hostages here, so I suppose the 'how' is up to you."
There just needs to be a gamemode which makes the game more about base defense and resource usage in defending the base. Currently you can just spam lasers and win no problem.

Imagine something like 7 days of constant biter attacks on all fronts, with biters much stronger as well. A relentless strain on the economy of your base more than anything, with there being a real need for repair bots to fully repair and remake certain sections of the perimeter as it gets destroyed by perhaps some special baneling-esque biter.

Add to this the idea that things get infinitely more and more difficult over time, and you instead compete for places on a leaderboard of like "survived 400 days and 14 hours".

The idea of the microVM is to isolate the build system from the host. Your question is beyond the scope of the original problem.
My issue at that point in DSP is that performance severely degrades (and save files get huge too).

You're penalized for building big dyson spheres (and even more penalized if you have graphics turned on for them).

You're penalized for building on more planets/system (and rewarded for cleaning up old structures, even if they're no longer actually doing anything).

I hope the combat patch comes with a lot of performance enhancements for existing content...
Methane from food waste contributes to climate change
They're different technologies. Maybe there could be a "ammunition holding feature" superclass that both belongs. Clips don't have springs, and are used to tidy ammunition, and to aid loading magazines. Old rifles and some revolvers had clip compatibility to aid loading internal magazine. At some point the military stopped using old rifles and some revolvers, making removable magazines far more common.

But that is not even remotely relevant to the topic. The original article don't even use the word "silencer", nor "suppressor", let alone "clip".

Most of the fear of cotton is from its use as a base layer, not as an outer layer. Militaries around the world still use cotton heavily, but layered over wool (in WW2) or polypropylene (modern) for colder weather.
Protip: For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software.
