>The go-to for a lot of the "take a look at that" procedures is a biopsy

It's not, sounds like you're not familiar at all with any of this.

There's some road to cover from imaging -> biopsy. Blood tests, more detailed imaging, even keeping an eye on it for some time, etc...

Have you heard of Pap tests? A lot of them come out find signs which could be indicative of a developing cervical cancer. Do all these women get their cervix removed the next week? No, not at all. Most of the time the symptoms go away in a few weeks, after some care and treatment.

Pap tests are done for a reason. Pap tests are the single thing that completely obliterate the "screening everyone is bad" argument.

How many examples and anecdotes about degradation are actually scientific side-by-side studies? I see absurd articles online about ChatGPT usage going down the drain by kids, completely failing to consider even the most basic fact of seasonality and how school is out for the summer!

Literally zooming out to see India and China wouldn't work, as TEMPO is on the Intelsat 40e geostationary satellite and the field of view doesn't include India or China. [1]

That said, TEMPO is part of the same polution monitoring project as GEMS [2], which was launched a few years ago and covers China.

And of course, TEMPO/GEMS/Sentinel-4 is not the only satellite-based pollution monitoring project. If you actually want to look at global pollution data from satellite-based instruments, NASA's EOSDIS Worldview site is a pretty interesting place to start, e.g. this may be of interest: [3]

> What do you, as an eager but uneducated layman, use to decide that?

Is this a trick question? I use my doctor's expertise and advice, obviously. Just like I do for any other nontrivial medical question.

This has happened to me a number of times throughout my life. I have some problem, my doctor requests a scan (or x-ray or ultrasound or...), it turns up some anomalies, and my doctor has to evaluate them to decide if they are relevant to anything. For many of them the answer is, no, they're not. Now I know that I have a cyst here and some slightly misaligned vertebræ there and ... that's fine. They weren't causing the problem I had and they're probably not causing any other problems either.

The argument that we must not look at ourselves because if we do, we'll be compelled by some mysterious force to take dangerous interventions is silly and just seems like an excuse for medical incompetence or laziness.
@dang Title filtering may have stripped out the CVE number, which is important context in the original title: "CVE-2020-19909 is everything that is wrong with CVEs"
I was today years old when I heard you can put an iOS app on a Mac.
Same here, that was in 2018 and I was using the Editorial app. Great app for its time BTW. Although, once I got to the publishing part, I found it lacking and switched to my Windows(At the time) now I use PopOS. But that was before Obsidian. I discovered Obsidian on Hackernews BTW. Thanks guys. Obsidian was exactly what I needed as a drop it replacement for the power of the Editorial App on MacOS.
> Bytecode encoding an interpreted language is only superficially similar to compilation.

No, its literally compilation, not something superficially similar to it.

> After all you can’t perform meaningful optimizations when the environment your code is running completely defines what the code does.

The environment your code is running on completely defines what the code does in all cases, and yet, meaningful optimization is possible, and bytecode for abstract/virtual machines are common for both things both for things that are commonly called scripting languages and things that generally are not. (Sometimes, the implementation of an abstract/virtual machine may involve another, JIT, compiler to some other – maybe native, maybe not – target.)

It’s true a lot of the languages called “scripting” languages have semantics that are structurally very difficult to optimize, but that has nothing to do with “interpreted vs. compiled”.
This is actually a feature I'd love OpenTF to have and am quite passionate about, personally. My plan is to submit it once we have the RFC process in place.

BIMI looks to be exactly as broken as EV, in that it assumes that company names and logos are unique - which they are not. It also suffers from the vast majority of legitimate emails not having it.

The only people who benefit from BIMI are the ones selling the quite expensive certificates.
But, if we were more intelligent, we might have raped the earth much faster and much harder too?

I see this too often, more intelligence = positive outcomes, but no, some of the smartest people ever put their intellect towards stupid causes, such as oil exploration and AI to capture peoples attention.

I hope you're right though and I'm wrong ;)
Mathematicians are almost always working on things without immediate applications.

It's true. A lot of people live in social poverty through no fault of their own. We all experienced it during covid.

Meditation likely lowers stress levels which reduces cortisol levels which improves immune function/response to cancer. That’s a guess as to a mechanism.
I used the original 34B last night with 4 bit through accelerate and I was absolutely blown away. I got goosebumps because it finally felt like we have models we can run on consumer hardware (single 3090 in this case) and did not feel like a toy. I purposely broke some functions, it fixed it. I asked some complex questions and it answered it well. I’m excited for what’s to come. I wish there was a Phind instruct model for me to play with. Text completion hasn’t really been all that useful for my use case.

>it would be so expensive that funding for other health programs would need to be reduced

But that's a different thing. I'm sorry, I will not talk about that.
You can, but it requires a strong authoritarian hand. China used to be rife with corruption and organized crime, now corruption has been significantly reduced and organized crime is essentially nonexistent. Singapore is broadly considered one of the least corrupt countries on the planet. Mandatory death penalty for drug trafficking and people will simply go around your city.

You may think those punishments are unreasonably harsh, but then again you’re probably not a drug trafficker. And it’s not like the American punishments (decades in dangerous prisons) are much better.
They can afford it. And they are able to pay for anything medical their doc recommends.

I am curious but not willing to spend $5-20k in scans and tests. Especially since they can be done annually. Why not? There’s no medical guidelines for what period has higher positive impact.

My doctor has mentioned tests that cost thousands and have a low probability of useful information. I say no. If I was rich, I’d probably do any test if the only downside was cost.
If the entire point of verification is verifying one's identity, I do not see why requiring a photograph and government identification is a problem. That's the only reasonable way of proving someone's identity.

The question of whether the use of "Israeli software" (whatever it is specifically; too broad to make any useful comment) is appropriate is up for debate, but the fundamental act of verifying identity based off government identification is reasonable.

Besides, if you don't like it you don't have to get verified nor use the service for that matter.

It's sad, I think people wanting to learn a language represents some kind of hope, and 10 years ago we were overall bullish on increased international collaboration. Now things have become way more insular, a future of international collaboration between superpowers seems way less likely. It's really sad.
It takes like 2-3 experiences of receiving a confidently wrong answer to downgrade your usage. If you use a refactoring tool to rename and it misses one, you won’t use it again.

This is such a biased title. "Failed"? The diagram this website pulled from pew doesn't have this term. It says "the US does not have...".
Funny—i'm very productive on macOS and feel the exact same as you do about pc interfaces (including all linux and bsd environments). I don't even know how i'd go about "fixing" (in my head) the horrifically bad keybindings that make these environments so hard to use.

"Any" is an existential quantification (what you mean by existential statement). "All" is a universal quantification. It can be vacuously true.

If this is controversial to any one at all, refer them to an introduction to logic course.
Here's the Illinois state statute:

720 ILCS 5/16-30)

Sec. 16-30. Identity theft; aggravated identity theft.

(a) A person commits identity theft when he or she knowingly:

(1) uses any personal identifying information or personal identification document of another person to fraudulently obtain credit, money, goods, services, or other property;

I've known dozens of people who went to jail for this, but only when they obtained money, not for services, but the statute is clear.
This is a good resource looking at the energy capacity of france: https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profil...

This resource describes France's nuclear sector as aging: https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=55259.

Between those two, it's not obvious to me that France could enable more nuclear capacity to account for the rest of their energy needs.

I'm not sure I would even agree that GHG neutral is even a thing. Just because a person plants 1000 trees to account for emitting 10 tons of carbon today, the 10 tons of carbon were still emitted today while those trees need decades to even get close to break-even (and in the meantime they can burn, contribute to mono-cultures, possible not grow at all, be double sold as offsets, etc..)

More concretely, I think it's like calling a Geothermal plant GHG neutral if it powers a facility that pulls down as much carbon as the thermal plant emits. As an aggregate, there is actually a true net zero there, but the thermal plant is still a positive contributor to emissions.*

The first resource linked earlier states it pretty well:

"As a result of the 1974 decision, France now claims a substantial level of energy independence and an extremely low level of carbon dioxide emissions per capita from electricity generation, since over 80% of its electricity is from nuclear or hydro."

"an extremely low level of carbon dioxide emissions per capita" is AFAIK as good as it gets.

I'm not sure why/where the energy vs electricity different really matters here. Perhaps you can help me out?

Googling for some other numbers, it looks like France's total emissions are 270M tons, with an energy sector emitting 40M tons, even if that energy sector were zero'd out - France would still emit 230M tons of GHG.

*Low carbon != zero carbon output. This resource shows nuclear as being a very low carbon source of electricity, akin to wind and solar (and even less than geothermal, all quite surprising to me): https://world-nuclear.org/nuclear-essentials/how-can-nuclear...

I think I might be extra sensitive to the phrase "GHG neutral", I believe that phrase is very often 100% PR and 0% reality.
How magnanimous of you to do everyone a service by ignoring all reasonable disagreement as conspiracy theories. Clearly we need more of your kind to prevent us mere mortals from talking about something that might be wrong.
If you find a naked painting of yourself and tissues in the floor in your friend's house please report back on exactly how that made you feel and exactly how you decided to proceed with the friendship.

>"people will die because of the absence of private options"

Private options are available for Canadians. Just cross the border. Problem is that your generic Joe Six Pack can not afford it. If they open private in Canada the Janes and Joes still would not be able to pay for it.

The general idea would fit in with the overarching California initiatives - particularly the California’s Density Bonus Law/Builder's Remedy that recently has been in the news.

The general idea is instead of assuming this new city will always be a sleepy suburban residential until eternity - assume from the get go that it will have the same "where are we going to stick all the 5 story towers" hot potato problem that San Jose/Santa Clara are having right now.

By laying out the future high density area zones on a 30 year zoning map, buyers can know a priori that if they buy the single family house on this street, their grandkids can potentially either expect to stubbornly live there in the shadows of a 5 story condo complex with low income components or cash out for tens of millions to a RE developer.

I think why this hasn't happened before is because it always seems silly when you just look at 500 acres of farmland to throw down BART access right of ways.

But in reality given California's historical growth patterns, its probably realistic if looking at a 25-50 year time horizons.
> It's really a slow return to how TV advertising and etc worked.

TV advertising is the opposite of targeted. Literally every person picking up a broadcast signal sees the same ads.

My neighbors having my name and address in the phone book doesn't bother me the way Google tracking every damn thing I see on the internet does. People don't notice it, but the latter is far more invasive.
Soft power matters. "Cool" matters. China will always struggle against freer and more open societies that bring people into their culture, music, art, and other forms of expression. The comparison to what Japan and South Korea have done should be a wake up call for these places. Even Russia doesn't have the cultural cachet it did during the Cold War.
Reputable simply means of good repute. Having good reputation. I.E. being credible and having credibility. In the context of tech savvy users, it wouldn't refer to the 'pop' articles you refer to.
There's a couple of things here:

1. I'm not saying we have to wait until GPT-5, we just need an apples-to-apples comparison where contamination is taken into account

2. GPT-4 does not seem to have improved on real-world coding tasks since March, so it's unclear where any purported HumanEval gains could've come from

3. I've personally noticed degradation anecdotally in the GPT-4 June update vs. the original March release
They do seem to have shared the source code with some of the more prominent modders in the past, but it is not generally available.
Fortunately this is mostly done for defense. A company isn't going to sue you for violating a 12 page contract you walked by, but they might ask you to leave and not come back. They probably won't mention the contract until you sue them for illegal discrimination, at which point they will refer to the contract and argue they were only enforcing their own posted rules and not illegally discriminating.
"All" as the way it is _because_ it's an implementation of the following logical statement:

It's not arbitrary, and understanding formal logic and the history of formal logic is a good basis for understanding a great many things in computer science.
What would the hardware requirement for fine-tuning a Llama 2 ?

Here’s a real Gettier question from my actual life:

In college, my future ex-wife rented a video from the video store called “Kama Sutra” on my card and returned it late. The late fee was sent to my parents’ house. My dad discreetly told me later that it was not a problem that we got a late fee, which means he read the letter and thinks we had watched a porno together and was trying to let me know and be cool about it.

However, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kama_Sutra:_A_Tale_of_Love is a “historical erotic romance film” and not a porno. But my ex-wife and I did in fact see a different porno together.

So then, does my dad know that we saw a porno together?
It's likely just a typo. LR5 "civilisation"/"civilization" brings up nothing on google. I don't know why you would an LLM to know more.

Most men diagnosed with prostate cancer will die with it rather than from it.
So you 1. paid a couple thousand dollars, 2. got a biopsy 3. it was nothing 4. probably are going to get a biopsy in the future because you wan to "keep an eye on it".

Ah, I see what you mean. Well, the way things are going you'll have your wish as all HTTP-only sites will get a warning eventually.
Correlation?

There seems to be a correlation with large metroplexes that use the A/C a lot.

Which is typically southern US states.

Eg SF/Seattle/Chicago are large metroplexes but you don’t need the A/C as much as say Dallas.

Is that an accurate correlation?

EDIT: why the downvotes for me asking a question?
Some people slept that way in pre industrial society. Doesn't mean everyone did.

yeah, order volume is flat but ad business is growing significantly, and it seems that their primary competitor (doordash) is growing at the expense of shipt and/or amazon, not instacart; and, a lot of the YoY flatness is explained away in the S-1 (up to you if you agree with their logic).

Formatted:

* Learn to live without electricity or water for a week or two.

* Grow a garden.

* Move away from masses of unprepared people.

* Learn to hunt (legally,) and fill your freezer with wild game.

* Learn to shoot and learn to carry a gun legally where you live. If guns are "illegal," get a license. If you refuse to do that, learn to carry a knife. If all else fails, learn to carry a stick. Read "Stick Combatives" by Massad Ayoob, and practice. Then take a fencing class; that will help you with stick fighting.

* Learn to repair things around your home yourself.

* Keep extra food in the pantry, keep cases of bottled water.

* Prepare go-bags, and test them on a camping trip, after you learn to camp.

* Earn a Ham Radio license and learn to talk to your friends without Internet or phones.

* Store data in such a way that you only need USB power to get access to it.

* Rely on your vehicle when the power is out. Even the silliest little combustion powered econocar can recharge a ton of electronic devices if you have a low battery cutoff and devices with the right chargers. Most car chargers never get used, so most car chargers you buy will not last more than half a charge.

* Test your gear. If you have something you have not tested, test it or throw it away.
> But that's a different thing. I'm sorry, I will not talk about that.

For people setting policies (and that includes doctors) cost is absolutely not a different thing.

Facebook has had an AI research lab for the better half of a decade now. Their open release model worked well in the past and it seems to be working well with Llama too. That looks like the extent of it.
