It's actually not very difficult to distinguish who nazis are.

I see all these arguments waxing poetic about how dangerous it is to... I don't know, give anyone power? As if we haven't had these debates before. We have concrete examples of policies and behaviors that are harmful on fascist/Communist (big C is important) levels. We can compare someone's rhetoric and actions to those of people who have done the kinds of harm we want to prevent. We can use reasoning to parse their arguments instead of reacting emotionally. People do this every single day.

If it's really your concern that we can't define what dangerous ideologies are, then educate yourself, because we can.
> McDonald's ice cream machines, is the holy grail of the right to repair movement.

This is not true though.

Even with Right to Repair laws, McDonald's can and will force franchisees to use the approved machines, contract the approved repair vendor, and use approved parts.

It's McDonald's decision, whether we agree with it or not. It's their reputation, and ultimately their wallet at stake. They can, and will contractually force franchisees to do what they want. That's how franchises are run.

The reality is this is not a Right to Repair issue. This is a franchise contract issue.
It’s got a good ring to it, but it sounds incredibly boneheaded.

In any business endeavor there is no leader or follower, there are a number of stakeholders with varying interests and proficiencies. Is “lead follow or get out of the way” something you would be embarrassed to tell a customer? An investor? Because customers and investors are stakeholders as well. The real world doesn’t look like an infantry boot camp.

You're kinda skipping past a whole lot to just equivocate that the human mind is comparable to an AI model
My worry with this approach has been that infusion sites (both for insulin and glucagon) can become occluded, pulled out, etc. to suddenly render them completely ineffective, and that automated detection of these scenarios is not great.

You need to move forward, and therefore must occasionally have a foot on the gas (insulin). The gas pedal failing, causing you to stop moving forward, is not urgently dangerous (hyperglycemia). However, if your brakes (glucagon) can sometimes fail completely, that could cause you to die almost immediately if you're moving too fast toward danger (extreme hypoglycemia). Given this situation where brakes are unreliable, do you want your automated control system to rely on them and push you to dangerous speeds?
Honda is a very Japanese company internally - they have their 30 year vision (all electric fleet) and they take slow incremental steps to achieve it.

The reality is they’re a fairly small automaker and 99% of their current sales are IC cars. They believe they will do more for the environment to keep spending a large portion of their R&D budget getting gains out of their existing cars than completely pivoting to something people aren’t currently buying. In the meantime, a lot of the fundamental issues with EV cars will iron themselves out.

Westerners want results tomorrows but the Japanese will take incremental steps that maximize the chance of success over an incredibly long time horizon. Very different mindsets.

T-Mobile no longer provides an autopay discount unless you switch to ACH from credit card payment.
Great point. WSL has always been a wolf in sheeps clothing, in my eyes.

I'm not saying it's not useful. It certainly fills a role people clearly wanted filled. But you'd be naive to think Microsoft isn't taking on an "embrace, extend, extinguish" mentality. Again.
Y'all are insufferable good lord. People know how the words fit together. Everyone speaks fine.

Not everyone needs to be a big gas etymology nerd about it and in fact nerdly insistence on what a word "actually" means contra its everyday use is an extremely common error. One that wouldn't be made by someone with even the slightest interest in the domain of linguistics, rather than just feeling smarter than people.
I did this in the Raspberry Pi 1 era.

* Pi for timing/wifi/status/webserver.

* Opened at 8am, closed at civil twilight. Or whenever I hit the button on the webserver, or the switch board.

* Limit switches.

* Mechanical swing lock for raccoon protection

* Electric drill + rope for the vertical sliding door

* Relay for direction, power mosfet for the drive controller.

* Intermediate board between the 3.3v controller and the 12V power board.

* Lead acid battery + charger for the power.

The door was pretty hefty, and was _solid_. 1/2 or 3/4 ply IIRC. The drill wound up being a mistake, because the power was too high, managed to fry some relays before I got everything worked out. The limit switches were generally pretty good, but they were also pretty well protected by the door design.

The best bug was that the wifi worked really well during the day, but not at night. Turns out that the LOS between the wifi dongle and the AP went through the roost, and chickens absorb enough wifi signal to drop it off the net. So one 3m usb cable later, and the dongle was on the other side of the roost. Solid networking from then on.

Sadly I left it in the coop when moving out.
> The filesystem is super slow, and git commands take multiple seconds.

Ugh, this is a known issue in WSL if you try to use git on the host operating system (/mnt/c/Users/path/to/repo)... there are cross-system file system virtualization issues in WSL2 when reading from the Windows hosts.

Workaround is to have your git repos within WSL itself (~/my-git-repo) to have native performance.
Thanks for the correction. I always assumed those banners were to comply with the regulations. Nice to know the companies are being annoying for no reason.
This is an accurate assessment, on the other hand things like tinder actually have more reach in Asia mostly due to cultural differences.
To be quite frank, McDonalds seems to hire a lower grade of worker than the rest, or at least their workers perform worse than the rest because they're paid poorly and overworked, or for some other reason...

Point is, they can't even get "no pickles" right.
A generous interpretation is that they don't want to worry about the resources used by internal OS components being compatible across infinite variety of browser vendors, versions, add-ons (and those versions), etc.
The love of money may kill the open web?

What if we use AI to generate 1,000,000x more nonsense on the web to make crawling ineffective instead?

Could the dead internet theory put into practice be the solution?
Humorous observation: amw.ai sounds like an LLM MLM. ... "Can I be an Amwai distributor?"
Yea please let me pay $30 in fees for a $10 purchase instead of $0.27. Afterward I can sit in the waiting area for 45 minutes while they wait for my transaction to be finalized.
Oh, they can self-host. They just have to go the long way around to get their message to anybody because the internet is a network. They can send paper letters and provide dialup BBS.

Networks always imply at least two parties. What they don't have the privilege of is access to a carrier willing to devote their privately-owned bandwidth to transceiving the message.

The fact you're publishing a paper doesn't imply that paperboys will carry it for free. Or that they'll even take your money to carry it.

Now, the notion they can self-publish (via mail) and self-host (via BBS) does rely on common-carrier protections (and mail anonymity). One can make the case (as EFF does) that by extrapolation we should give the same general-use protections to the Internet.

I'm not inclined to agree-by-extrapolation. The Internet is far more powerful and far harder to regulate. I think the burden is on those who think it should be a common-carrier system to justify why that's societally beneficial (over the status quo of "it's a federated network of peers, with service provision balanced between people's freedom to carry or not carry traffic and the incentives to get paid to carry").
My Caste
It's pure laziness. One should have raised prices first and then a week or month later, the other should have followed. At least pretend you are competing with each other. Look at coke and pepsi. One has a sale this week. And then next week the other has a sale. They alternate.

In a society that doesn't allow monopolies, I guess we are destined to get cooperating duopolies.
>it really sounds like something a science writer, without the proper education, could have written.

It just flew past your head didn't it? You remarked on the similarities between an AI and a human in order to prove the triviality of AI.

Getting AI to the ability of a science fiction writer was an impossible feat just 3 or 4 years ago.
There's a right mix of density/weight that can push things in favor of solid state. For example, if they need less or no cooling and have LFP like lifecycles, then you could see really interesting things in terms of the range. All the sudden a 50kWh solid state battery might compete in range with a 80kWh LFP due to the massively reduced weight.

This all remains to be seen though. CATL I think is one of the only manufactures signalling mass production of solid state batteries but it's sort of a "believe it when I see it" situation. (Ditto with sodium batteries).
Except there's no "staging Internet" to test such equipment, and even if there was it would still sometimes not translate to the real open network. I'm sorry, were they inconvinienced with the world at large?

I paid 390 USD (excluding taxes) in 2019 for my phone - Xiaomi Mi9T Pro, I'm from relatively poor country, so i personally wouldn't pay 700 for a phone, it's a pretty high price for me.
What is more interesting actually, is that Fairphone 5's SOC have the same performance as Snapdragon 855 in my at this point 4 years old phone, which is also cheaper. Accoring to GsmArena performance of Qualcomm QCM 6490 used in Fairphone 5 comparable to the Snapdragon 778G which has the same score in GeekBench 5 and Antutu 9 as Snapdragon 855 [1]. At least it has 2 more GB of RAM (my phone has 6)

Maybe it's a bit sad that there isn't that much progress lately (compared to early to mid 2010s), but it also means that i will be able to continue to use my phone for several more years without much problems (Except for Android updates, but I already have custom ROM installed).

There’s a difference between “can’t” and “won’t”. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it being up front that an attempt to answer a question is inherently impossible for it to answer. Information like estimating X in Y may or may not be possible from the underlying training data depending on X and Y.
It's fine, no worries.

We really should come up with something in reverse. "The arrogant coasts," perhaps ;)

Costco switched who they partner with close to a decade ago. Pre-2015, they were American Express only. Now they are apparently Visa only in the US, while here in Canada they are Mastercard only
Or, they take a plea deal that doesn't result in incarceration (or the crime/sentencing didnt assign imprisonment), but all the other negatives. Still in the pipeline, but they just aren't in those stats since they aren't incarcerated.
If I wanted to use my stove, microwave or dishwasher (all flat buttons), I might try to put a little Sugru on the surface to outline the important ones like the +30 seconds button.
> :class="alert" is strictly worse than ((class . "alert")) or any other variation that actually leverages s-expressions instead of merging key and value into the same symbol. Ew.

I hear you, but I wasn't aiming for leveraging the power of macros. Using `((class . "alert"))` does not provide any benefits over :class="alert".

> Not a fan of the bare words instead of strings either, which means this cannot be naively evaluated by a Lisp.

I traded off ergonomics against "Evaluation by a Lisp processor".Instead of

(div "My first " (b "hello") (em " world"))

I'd rather do

(div My first (b hello) (em world))

Thank you for your input.
Also I believe LFP chemistry is friendlier to staying pegged at 100% SoC.

There are small 'subcompact' crossover SUVs that get the best of both of those worlds. I've owned a Nissan Kicks and Honda HR-V. Both are marketed as SUVs but really function as roomy hatchbacks (lightweight, tight handling, front-wheel drive), along with others in the category. Very practical compromise between cost/efficiency and size/utility. Generally the only thing that cars in this class don't do is tow.
Im totally unqualified to judge the science going on in this paper, but a quick summary of the control: "The spherules, significantly concentrated along the expected meteor path, were retrieved from seafloor depths ranging between..." "with control areas north and south of that path."
I didn't see the author expect a damned thing. He said he's personally seen the light and thinks that others would benefit from occasionally putting down the technology and having immersive real-world experiences.

Learn an instrument, make your own music; read a map, navigate for yourself; don't call people, talk to the people you're with; don't pay for shit, you've got enough of it already. Doing this one day a week sounds like an excellent idea to me, and if it sounds like a hardship to you, perhaps the author made a point.
This has always been one of the selling points of CockroachDB, the ability to seamlessly run multi-cloud redundancy.
I'd imagine a EV minivan would use a heat pump instead of a resistive heater. That'd have a much smaller toll on the winter range.
Yeah, the results of search engines these days is so poor. They seem to only want to send people to the most profitable page instead of the most useful page.
“The wars of the future will not be fought on the battlefield or at sea. They will be fought in space, or possibly on top of a very tall mountain. In either case, most of the actual fighting will be done by small robots. And as you go forth today remember always your duty is clear: To build and maintain those robots.”
i understand that, and it would actually support my argument which implies that in less mountainous areas more people could be living away from the city.

however turns out that this is not necessarily the case: https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/249029/umfrag...

surprisingly despite its mountains austria appears to be at the lower end of urbanization
If you wanted to go down that line of thinking, you should be able to use a hash function to uniformly shuffle the keys within a larger space, and then apply your sort to that. No need to store the randomized keys.

Probably performance wouldn't be as good as the OP article though.

Just curious, why would you swap out a live link unless it is malicious or disingenuously reposting content from another source? Isn’t there value in a diversity of information sources and/or narrative dialog etc., even if sometimes some other source has a more detailed or better written article? Wouldn’t the better response be to post the other article and let that one win on merit?
Minivans seem like a great fit for PHEV. Short trips could be all-electric, and the longer ones powered by an ICE running efficiently at highway speeds.
Transactions on the Lightning Network are near instant and cost about ~$0.04, or 1000x cheaper than Visa or MC.
Hi HN,

Tiny-dream is designed to be embedded on larger codebases (host programs) with an easy to use C++ API.

The project github is located at: https://github.com/symisc/tiny-dream
The C++ API documentation is located at: https://pixlab.io/tiny-dream#cpp-api

The current tensor engine is backed by ncnn with planned transition to ggml in the short period. Nevertheless, in our experimental ggml port, we found out that ggml doesn't quantize well, and is better suited for LLMs than heavy computer vision tasks. You can refer to the roadmap page at https://pixlab.io/tiny-dream#roadmap for more information.
Exactly my thought. Sounds like a costly convenience.
We just need to line the fuselage (or make it out of) batteries.

Can you provide examples of shell companies they've used? As far as I'm aware, Kiwi Farms only had a single LLC which is based in the US.
> How anyone reasonable could consider this a bad thing, I don't know.

Because it's completely unproven. Their theory is that 'free speech advances the goals of [others whose views are contrary to our values]' but that's not proven, that's just their theory.

It's held for ages that free speech works as it allows for the 'disinfectant of sunlight' i.e. that ideas stand and fall on their merits with all relevant parties allowed to discuss freely.

They _posit_ that this theory no longer holds true but they never seem to actually explain how they came to that conclusion. You, similarly, just say that is 'is right' but... how did you get there? What's your proof of concept? Do you have examples?

It seems very much to me like they've just turned around and said 'yeah actually free speech is bad because it helps the bad guys more than the good guys, trust us, it's no good' and left it at that.

> reasoning has always been sound

They've done a complete 180 on this position. By definition either their reasoning before was unsound or their reasoning today is unsound. Pick one.

Exactly. And a market in general wouldn't ever create those programs themselves if they don't provide any direct or indirect profits. So these would be state directed.
I am not sure we have any disagreement anywhere. :)
Interesting, yeah I buy that, thanks. Building my intuition with this stuff. Anyone seen a good open-source implementation of MoE with Llama yet?

We looked at the Pacifica hybrid when we bought ours, but that year (2017) it was brand new and the mechanic recommended against it until Chrysler had a chance to work out the kinks in their hybrid technology.

If I had to get a new van today, I'd consider it (or their all-electric next year).
As one who has used only Linux on all desktops and laptops for more than two decades, I am pretty sure that Linux does not have a written license that enumerates what a Linux user can do with the computer on which Linux is installed, e.g. whether they may use NVIDIA GPUs.

The GPL is not that kind of license.

While GPL includes some use restrictions, they are logically contradictory.

GPL says:

"This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the unmodified Program."

So anyone can run the Linux kernel without any restrictions imposed by GPL.

The GPL then has a convoluted specification of how it should forbid a GPL program to be combined with other programs, so that copies of the combination would be transferred to others.

However those restrictions do not apply to kernel modules like those distributed by NVIDIA, which are not "combined" with the GPL Linux kernel until the end user loads the NVIDIA kernel module.

Because the GPL cannot be applied to such kernel modules, the anti-NVIDIA kernel developers take advantage of the fact that when a kernel module is loaded dynamically, in order to work, it must discover the entry addresses for the kernel symbols, exactly like a user-mode executable must discover the entry addresses for the libc shared library.

So they attempt to make difficult for the NVIDIA module to obtain the addresses for the kernel symbols that it needs. This is exactly like if in user space the libc shared library would attempt to not provide e.g. the entry address of "printf", if it would not like the name of the executable file from which "printf" is invoked.

If anyone breaks the GPL, these kernel developers break it, because instead of providing "unlimited permission to run", which means "unlimited permission to" invoke any of the interfaces provided by the kernel, they attempt to hide many of the interfaces when they discover that the Linux users own NVIDIA GPUs, with the purpose of crippling the performance of such GPUs.
As mentioned above, the USK cannot "censor" games, it is responsible for deciding which games (or other pieces of media) are considered "harmful for the youth" (and by the way, it is a public-private partnership, not a government body). Games considered "harmful for the youth" (i.e. games that are, colloquially, "auf dem Index") may by law not be distributed or advertised to minors. They may still be imported, sold, and otherwise distributed, as long as care is taken that they are only distributed to people of age.

Because it's essentially impossible to ensure that any particular advertisement will only be seen by adults, this however means that games not approved by the USK may practically not be publicly advertised at all. Because game publishing companies have a strong incentive to be allowed to advertise their games, they will often self-censor to ensure USK approval. This is done for commercial, not legal reasons; if the companies didn't want to advertise their games, they wouldn't have to abide by USK guidelines.

It is also illegal to advertise tobacco in Germany, and it is also illegal to sell tobacco to minors. Unless you believe that this constitutes a "tobacco ban" in Germany, it is hard to argue that video games are "banned" under this law.

That said, the 2018 change in USK policy that allows video games showing anti-constitutional symbolism to still be approved as long as the message is clearly anti-nazi is still perfectly reasonable, and probably a good development, as it aligns USK policy in this regard with policy that it previously took on other media.
I bought a Tuxedo with one of the first Gen3 AMD processors available, and even though the machine it's mostly OK, the build quality and the battery are terrible. I have a Thinkpad P14s for work which is miles ahead on those fronts.
