Erf that pricing is cooked. Straight into the basket of unobtanium along with the 3000 bucks for adult diagnosis. Cheers but no thanks.

Man I'm glad I don't live in the US. Healthcare for a profit is gross. Go get some government funding and release your service for more accessible prices.
One approach I’ve used in the past is to offer an API which takes threads or a worker pool as a parameter, and a separate API which does that for you and calls the first one.

Then in your Python wrapper you can use the wrapper, but your users who care can provide the pool they’ve already created.

Bonus points if it’s an interface or trait that the user can adapt their own scheduler to, if they don’t use rayon. But, I can see how that could be tricky if the design of your library is tightly coupled with the threading solution.

One way to frame it is that thread creation is a significant side effect.
Using SHA256 I was able to prove mathematically, that files you upload to google drive are the same after you download them again. You could also plug an external drive into a raspberry pi (or any computer really) and run samba on it. You would have to do some research to find a good samba client for iOS as I am not an iphone user. You could make all the media on your samba server available to all the devices on your LAN.
Just use KDE connect
Definitely, and we hear you. We're excited for our upcoming pilot with more rigorous study. Also, as mentioned in a different thread, we're definitely not a medical service nor replacement for medical service. If members are looking to "save money" from an alternative, the alternative this person would be comparing us to would be another ADHD coaching service (likely an individual or small group of coaches)—in this case, that service likely will not have pilot data at scale either.
I have a 64 GB M1 Max MBP, and I'd say unless you really have some academic interest towards messing with open models, for now accessing SOTA models via a REST API has better latency for a given quality.

Claude 1.2 instant is as fast as 3.5, follows instructions at a quality closer to 4, and has a 100k context window. Hard to compete with that with an open source model right now.

That is an interesting thought experiment. IANAL, but I'm pretty sure putting something on your head to essentially coerce information would be a violation of the right to remain silent. I don't know whether it would fall in the fingerprint vs spoken password space in terms of subject-to-search-warrant.

Fortunately this tech is currently very person-specific and have to be trained to the person. So to thwart it you'd just have to think applesauce over and over.
As well as keeping up with the latest front end framework(s) which rather like the expanding universe accelerates over time, it may be worth learning a speciality like security or performance or testability. Are you interested in management?
no - this is not conceptually related to lie detection. Yes it uses ML to decode something, but that's where the similarity ends. This is decoding the patterns of brain activity used to generate speech.
Same, actually. Perhaps some of it is due to the naming convention. For instance, in the Lisp interpreter, he tends to use "parms". Which I assume is short for "parameters".

That makes me think of parmesan cheese -- "params" would be a better fit.

When playing beat saber, I always assumed the Apple Watch over-estimates calorie burn if only because the watch is on the part of your body that's the most mobile (your wrist). So, getting 300kcal for a 30 minute session felt like cheating.

But, there's at least "more legit than an Apple Watch" evidence that the calorie burn is that high; 6-8kcal per minute on Expert difficult [1], and some of the Expert+ tracks could easily burn more than that (and, I weigh much more than their Standard Reference Person).

I'm not the most fit person, but I've seen surprisingly little hard evidence that the Apple Watch grossly under or over-estimates calories burned. I imagine it starts getting worse at the extremes, and nothing is perfect, and everyone is different; its an area where more research would have unbelievably high leverage (Apple has sold, hundreds, of millions, of watches) (in fact: I'm sure they've done some of this research themselves).

I don't think primitive is a good description of the go gc. It's definitely got different design constraints (Vs the various java gc, for example), particularly around the philosophy of minimising knobs, but within those constraints it's pretty highly optimised.

Chromium. I don't know how it looks right now, but several years ago lots of its parts were really good. Modular, with a lot of extensibility points, easy to read. (That may have changed, so another opinion would be useful). It was quite different from Firefox code, that looked surprisingly convoluted.
Statistically, the under-25 set tends to be pretty poor at risk assessment and judgement. Of course, that doesn't mean all people under 25. There's a huge amount of variability and a whole lot of extremely responsible and capable young adults.

The process you need to go through to get a pilot's license -- especially a commercial one -- is pretty rigorous and I would have confidence that anyone, of any age, who does it is qualified.

The process you need to go through to get a driver's license is very far from rigorous, and I don't assume that just because someone has one, at any age, that means they're good at it. So the statistics are more relevant. There's a very good reason why car insurance premiums are higher for people under 25.
Someone who knows the VC industry should chime in on this - but AFAIK, companies don't get all their money from investor at once.

Especially due to animal agriculture (80% of agricultural lands).

Animal ag is the leading driver of biodiversity loss, deforestation, droughts, water usage, eutrophication etc.

We could switch to plant-based diets, reforest the pastures (the size of both Americas) and stop climate change (together with phase-out of fossil fuels) and store enough carbon in those forests to cause new little ice age and reverse the warming.
There seems to often be an idea that the models "contain" the training images. Aren't they far too small for that? A point of having a model (LLM, whatever) is that the model is abstracted from the training data. And then, except coincidence that doesn't really matter, the model cannot regenerate exactly a person's source image.

It can generate a likeness and that will be enough for people to complain about; and likeness is already actionable in narrow circumstances in current law if there was some intent. But otherwise, likeness, even very close likeness is safe in current law.

One current problem is that copyright covers "derived" works. And it will have to be sorted out whether model training means everything that follows is "derived". I sure hope for not but who knows. Music law certainly goes pretty extreme on "derived". While elsewhere we are actually pretty free for our inspiration.

The question of tools that are capable of generating illegal content is pretty safe currently. Not illegal. But there's no doubt that some large copyright owners will go after that sooner or later. It's tradition.

I think not all deaf people have the same mapping of words and their precise phoneme to the typical expected muscle movements. If this mapping differed from a regular person this system would not be that useful on the interpreting speech side. I think we've had pretty good gesture recognition for a while, on the other hand. I bet it's possible to decode individual signs right now but sign language also has a different grammar from typical spoken English and a lot of meaning is context based so it might be tricky in that way, more of a translation problem.

It's not at all comparable lol. Not in scale or function.
Exactly and it would be extremely stupid for them not to take advantage of their current market position. It's a now or never situation IMO.
The word "discrimination" also appears on this page 22 times: https://www.dol.gov/newsroom/releases/ofccp . This is only a precisely targeted case if we ignore all other cases like it, of which there are many.
Correct, it might, someday, become part of Java SE. If that ever happens I would expect it working on every platform Java supports would be a prerequisite for that.

Right now it's primarily useful for reducing start up times in AWS Lambdas and auto-scaling workloads.
We definitely are not trying to pass as a medical service. However, we do our due diligence to make sure we have medical staff on board to advise us on our protocols, services, train our staff, supervise our staff, and to stand in if there is any escalation needed. We hope it's clear Dr. Anil himself is not coaching and very happy to make things more clear by adding his title to the front of the card.
Studies have shown that just giving people resources with no strings attached produces really positive results. It also keeps our welfare systems simple, less expensive to run, and less prone to moralistic posturing. ("How dare these people buy raw salmon when there's canned tuna available?") Personally, I'm happy if there's 9 people using EBT to get what they need without trouble for every crab leg lady.

As for perception, the Republican dogma is starving the beast. "Welfare queens" are just an excuse: any remotely plausible reason will be used to defund social programs, crab legs or no.

> This is a textbook situation that would be perfect for a competitor to come in and undercut.

Do you have any idea how much R&D it takes to make a GPU, let alone something that could possibly compete with NVIDIA?

This is not something a dozen people in a large garage are going to do.

> However not only is that not happening, nobody is even trying.

AMD has been trying to compete for years. If you're a gamer that doesn't care about getting the top performance and just wants to optimize price/performance, their offerings aren't bad.

> The reality is that private equity does not actually want to compete with large global brands.

Because the barrier of entry into the GPU market is probably at least a couple billion dollars.
Surprised not to see this answer yet:

To put a web interface on a rust program. Suppose you have a program that does something very much non web related but well suited for rust, like embedded, or heavy CPU calculations, high speed control, etc. And suppose you want to add a UI or API or RPC or Prometheus metrics or monitoring or etc to a program, HTTP is often a convenient way to do it.
Yeah, that's annoying that you can't edit quotas. But they are functionally different to a partition because the quota just limits the maximum size of the volume. If it's not filled to its quota, any unused space is still available for other volumes to use.
Consistency in Crisis: Why Flexing Your Standards Too Much Can Backfire
It's interesting to see how new religions are born after old religions are found wanting. Whereas earlier we had a God overseeing Earth, we now have Teleological Universe that ordains capitalism. But just like old religion, the new religion too works purely out of wishful thinking and not on evidence.

In a Universe that favors capitalism, you would think there would be plenty of evidence of a few entities exploiting the rest to drive entropy maximization. Instead what we see is that life is scarce, so scarce that we can't even be sure that there is other life in the Universe. Where are the Universe's capitalistic overlords who can make us pee in bottles lest we waste precious time maximizing entropy generation?
> I just ask that you and others don't assume for a second that someone trying to make others laugh is doing it for "internet points." Some people genuinely like trying to bring a smile to the faces of others.

Spot on!! I personally couldn’t care less about these brownie points, my whole life been (and still) using alt/nicknames accounts and mostly in sites/chats where the whole upvote system isn’t there, when I help someone in something or make a joke, because it makes me feel better to know I helped someone or brought some smile, I don’t care about your fake coins or whatever, but some people are so fixated about it for some reason, and that’s why I don’t like “influencers” culture in general, they are usually slaves to these thumbs up!
It sounds like a good idea until you realize that the doctor standing next to the woman is subjected to a lot of g-forces in their career. Probably will develop hemorrhoids like fighter pilots and F1 drivers ;)
> > Why would a major league team owner ever agree to the risk of relegation, which would destroy the value of their investment?

Because they are supposedly an expert in the field and could build a portfolio of clubs so that even if one gets relegated, then others might come up and viceversa.

Their skills would be then measured much more 'on the stuff' and less on the politics such as the political manouvers to get the league to agree to an expansion team in the geography of preference.

Wouldn't it be much easier to create a soccer club in Vegas and inject capital into it to make it reach the MLS? Or an NFL franchise in Austin, again inject capital and see it rise to the NFL?

The state of the art requires the businessmen who want to set up shop in such cities to politic their way into having the league accept an expansion team, wheres the natural order of things would be via the promotion/relegation system, so that Vegas could replace Commerce City, CO as the city represented in the MLS and Austin could replace Buffalo, NY in the NFL.

And the best thing is that it would not be definitive in any way, as circumstances change then Buffalo could once again rise to the top tier once again and viceversa
I think you are wrong here. Clear majority prefers to never see a surgeon.

I’ll take this opportunity to mention our research scaling StyleGAN 2 to larger datasets (using LAION) on food images, leveraging free TPU compute through the TRC program.

We were hopeful GANs would beat diffusion models when trained on specific domains. But we’ve now switched to Stable Diffusion and Dreambooth training which has proven more much efficient for this purpose.

I still have hopes for GANs! I miss their insane inference speed.

Well, they have property tax control as well so it isn’t surprising. But ya, rent control sucks in that it picks a few winners to the detriment of everyone else. Great for stability if you win it, but getting in is super hard. California still could stand to lose a few million people, maybe that’s their intention.
That suggestion about upvoting might work. It has less of a human element than a typed/written reply though (instead of someone typing text to express positive intent, it's someone incrementing a number to express positive intent), and it does sound more desolate/lonely from that perspective. Although I don't know how much it matters.

Here's an exchange from a book I thought of while typing this comment, to illustrate my meaning.

`But he could not resist the temptation to speak and to awaken a little human warmth around him. “A pity for the car,” he said. “Foreign cars cost quite a bit of gold, and after half a year on our roads they are finished.” “There you are quite right. Our roads are very backward,” said the old official. By his tone Rubashov realized that he had understood his helplessness. He felt like a dog to whom one had just thrown a bone; he decided not to speak again.`
It is kind of interesting to look at some of the differences in GC approach in the JVM vs Go - the different goals, different tradeoffs, different approaches, etc. Go's is definitely simpler in that there is a single implementation, it doesn't have nearly as many tuning knobs, and it is focused on one things vs the JVM GC implementations that give you a lot of control (whether that is good or not..) over tuning knobs and it is a pretty explicit goal to support the different GC-related use cases (ie, low-latency vs long-running jobs where you only care about throughput).

One of the things I really like about Go is that a lot of the designs and decisions, along with their rationales, are pretty well documented. Here are the GC docs, for example - https://go.dev/doc/gc-guide.

For example, Go doesn't move data on the heap around so to combat fragmentation, it breaks the heap up into a bunch of different arenas based on fixed sizes. So a 900 byte object goes into the 1K arena, etc. This wastes some heap space, but saves the overhead and complexity with moving data around.

3. Get all your bills on auto-pay against your credit card. This will also make sure you are never late on your bills.

It's still using Firefox extensions, this is for people switching from Chrome to Firefox (or those who want to use both browsers with the same extensions.) From the article:

"Mozilla decided to create a list of extension pairs for extensions that are available on the Chrome Web Store and the Mozilla Add-ons Store. Instead of importing the Chrome extension directly, Firefox is installing the Firefox version of the extension from Mozilla's own extension store."

So far they have 73 pairs, but should increase overtime and likely cover the most commonly used extensions.

Thanks for this comment—you've nailed it. The service we're providing in it's very nature is not medical and instead encompasses support functions like accountability, celebration of the member, helping the member feel "seen and heard", etc. Many of our members have not got that from their doctors, nor do they expect it given the doctors role. We advocate for layering the services you need together (e.g. I have a doctor, psychiatrist, coach, right now.) and our coaches work hard to communicate the role of a coach and the boundaries.

I feel the opposite. I hate discussions that show comments in a flat list in the order they were posted. I much prefer the tree structure that reddit and hacker news uses.

Examples:

The Ars Technica comments. People that want to reply to a comment have to quote the other comment, which makes following a discussion more trouble than it is worth.

The Steam forums are usually worse than a game's subreddit. Although that is also caused by poor moderation.
Comments sections do hold attention for a finite amount of time per person, and having a low-effort, negative, or trollish comment suck the air out of the virtual room is bad.

"don't feed the trolls", "downvote and move on" are valid pieces of advice.
