Thanks for pointing that out. I knew LineageOS and /e/ already had the Android 13 builds for the Fairphone 4. First time I'm hearing about CalyxOS, and the official webpage isn't in-depth enough to point how much different they are from LineageOS. Their own two bundled apps look interesting (the backup and outbound connection control ones) based on the one/two sentences I've found, but overall seems like a smaller community than LineageOS.

Might give them a go.
If you’re building a ZFS based storage server, FreeBSD is a great choice for this reason.
Your analogy just escapes all reason. Twitter is an entertainment platform that obviously millions of people find enjoyable, and certainly astronomical amounts of good come out of it to certain individuals. I bet there are many experiences of people getting their name out there, or some insignificant thing no one would notice. You want to tell me someone who's life changed for the better is going to agree with that headline? Not only "that person" but EVERY PERSON on twitter who likes it? Get the fuck out of here.

The bubonic plague killed millions of people.

"We dont need __some tech thing__" is definitely not a statement of fact. There's literally no universe where this is true.

"Twitter when analyzed in X way, appears sentiment trends towards the negative" is much more a statement of fact, but won't be preferred because its not clickbait paternalistic garbage

This is such an American reply and one that as a European, I find mildly amusing.

Everywhere will have different risk factors, the American attitude seems to be ‘I won’t pay for anyone else, even if it means I ultimately will have to pay more’.
Yes, I mean all advertisement, with exceptions like being able advertise on a business's own premises or upon explicit request like signing up for a newsletter (on purpose, not due to dark pattern fuckery).

My first thought was this sounded like Tasker. From that link it looks like a similar concept with workflows focused around insulin pumps.
If you have a variable speed well pump, it is very likely to contain a three-phase motor. What it doesn’t have is direct wiring from the motor windings to incoming power. It likely has a variable-frequency drive consisting of an AC/DC converter (for which there would be a small but nonzero benefit if the supply were three-phase supply) and three inverter outputs connected to the windings. And hopefully either the VFD is in or very close to the motor (Grundfos will sell you a VFD/motor/pump combo like this) or has proper filtering to reduce high harmonics and properly shielded wiring to the motor.
We are those tests, observing the code from inside :)
what kind of question is that? what user does not care that the OS is not respecting his choice of Browser? It greatly impacts the daily work. You are logged in into services in your browser of choice, you have autofills in your default browser, you have your preferences (language, cookie settings etc) set in your default browser and just because a link is opened from somewhere inside windows you find yourself in another browser where you are not logged in in your services, you don't have saved passwords, you don't have bookmarks or the extensions you use etc, so you have to copy the URL and paste into your browser.

Are you telling me you really don't care about this disruption that happens tens of times per day or just that you are not impacted and so noone else should care?
Non or this makes much sense tbh. The thing about this is that when you commission an artist, the artist is not actually given copyright, but the person who paid the artist is given the copyright. Why is it not the same for promoting?
So, the blender project was just used to create the game (set up each decision tree, and the position of all images), from there I compile everything into complex ligatures in the GSUB table. The wasm binary feature wasn’t around when I made fontemon, but it looks like it would have made development a lot easier!

You can convert OSM into Sqlite3 and query on it.
I build an example with SQLite to convert from coordinates to address.

Then I had to find closest addresses up to a limit.

https://github.com/punnerud/rgcosm

Some some also build on it with parameters:
https://github.com/BlackCatDevel0per/rgcosm
A design with limit switches instead of counting turns seems like it would be much more reliable. e.g. https://www.floweringelbow.org/automated-door-from-an-old-wi...

That way the software can be nearly stateless:

1. Check time and determine desired state (open or closed)
2. Compare desired state against limit switches and run motor until the limit switch is hit (or it times out which is an error)

On the other hand, a turn-counting strategy can lose power in the middle of opening or closing and "forget" where it is in the process.
Could Nature speculate any more lately?
"you wouldn't be willing to have ten guilty men reoffending to prevent that one innocent man being jailed."

You want accuracy. We can just ignore this false dichotomy about letting guilty people go to protect the innocent. If you are jailing the innocent, then you still have guilty parties going free anyways since the wrong person is convicted.
The point of the Deno project is not being a replacement for Node. It's actually being a holistic dx to web dev. They provide the runtime, the hosting, and the full stack framework (Fresh).
For me the main concern is it not breaking if it's in my pocket while I'm out in the rain - that was a failure mode for my FP1 and has not been great for my FP2, I think.
Seeing fb at no 7 is interesting. I would love to have a search engine that is able to crawl and index fb, since the site has an extremely poor search, while having tons of seemingly 'public' data that is not properly indexed on any search engines. I always use fb as an example to explain the concept of the deep web: trying to access anything (including event announcements) on the site without logging in is a PiTA at best or impossible at worst.
Sure, you could do that. But that sounds mostly useful for psychology or brain research. The number of institutions that would even consider doing that is dwarfed by the number of simcity players. In a theoretical future where simulating a world in sufficient detail is viable on a smallish hardware budget, you are much more likely to be in a simulation than in a research lab.

The problem with Kremlins ("ardent haters of the West") is that they are

a) In for money or because it is a part of their job description.

b) Not too Russian. It's a distinct ethno-political subgroup.

The latter would be apparent from reading the "Early Life" section of Wikipedia, or any source of the same effect.

A Russian will not want to harm Europe unless it's kill or be killed situation - because Russia is a part of Europe and is not viable without it. A Russian will also not want to hurt Russian people or the country. Kremlins talk about the former and do the latter, all the time.

> I do not see on what grounds you can classify in this case Linux as a victim and NVIDIA as an attacker.

The linux kernel is respecting it's user's rights to know what code they run, and to be able to modify it.

nvidia is not extending that courtesy to their users, even though the linux kernel's possibly-legally-enforceable copyright insists that nvidia has to extend such a right. nvidia can release their source code as GPL if they want to use the GPL parts of the kernel.

Are you just as mad at nvidia for having a proprietary driver but not letting users apply patches to the driver? I assure you, the license nvidia distributes its drivers under is much more restrictive than linux's GPL license.

Like, if you're mad that the linux developers are making it harder for nvidia to violate linux's license and make a derivative work of the linux kernel, surely you're even madder that nvidia's developers have made it even harder for anyone to make a derivative work of nvidia's proprietary driver blobs, right?

The problem is that the more people buy Steam Decks, the less understanding the average Linux gamer will be of bugs.

For every hardcore Linux gamer who would leave a negative review on a game because it's not available on their platform, there will be several regular gamers who would leave a negative review because it doesn't work well on the Steam Deck. Enabling Linux support without actually working at supporting it for real is a risk that game studios rightly avoid.

Steam could probably help with this by giving you a way to bypass the publisher's recommendation with lots of warnings (and maybe disabling negative reviews if you do), but that that doesn't exist is on Steam, not the publisher.
It looks like that is going in the right direction but it seems like "cost disease" for everything except XXL bathrooms in McMansions in Arizona is a reason why we can't have nice things in America.
The problem of "n" does not completely go away even in a much improved legal system. Assuming you can identify the killer 99.99% correctly with absolute certainty, you will still have that one in ten thousand case where the killer is not precisely known, but there is 50%, 90%, 99% probability it's them, that is, you risk to convict one innocent man for every n = 1, 10, 100 guilty persons in those rare cases.

So the efficiency of the criminal system and the problem of "n" are somewhat orthogonal: the first is an issue of effective governance, the second is a political choice faced by any practical (thus, imperfect) system of governance.

I think that unless (until?) OpenAI releases information about the model itself and the inference engine it runs on, everything is just speculation. Clearly, there's impressive ML and systems engineering at play with GPT-3.5-turbo given how capable, fast, and scalable to their customer base it is.
As I said: I was by no means saying it didn’t happen. But that wasn’t the argument being made that I was responding to.
Interesting, I thought GPT-3.5 was considered GPT-3 + InstructGPT-style RLHF on a large scale, whereas GPT-4 is considered to be an MoE model.
I hope it does keep basically working, but they are quite categorical about it! "The device will cease to function" (reliance on network and cloud services for unrelated functionality is by itself a fatal flaw, and something that also has been all too common in recent years).
I have to be honest, it doesn't change my answer.

Advertising is a multi-billion dollar industry who spends millions yearly on figuring out how to manipulate us into buying things we don't need. The average person has no chance against this manipulation.

So yes, burn it all to the ground.
I run a zfs array on a home server. The server's off most of the time, so I don't have any fancy services running from it.

When my phone gets low on space, I move my photos and videos across via plain old USB.

Same when I reformat a machine: I gather all the files I want to keep into a single folder, then move it to the server.

I used to run zfs with one redundant drive. I had a drive failure, bought a replacement drive, swapped it in, and had zero loss to my knowledge.

I later read that drives tend to die around the same age, and doing a drive replacement is a very strenuous activity, so you shouldn't just have one redundant drive. So now I have two.

> Beam doesn't have anything to do with supervisors that's an OTP thing.

The key VM feature you're missing is process isolation. Without it, supervisors are not really possible - you can implement something that vaguely looks like them, but it won't provide the fault tolerance guarantees.

Imagine for example an Erlang process that leaks files. At some point it hits an EMFILE, gets killed, and the supervisor restarts it. The system will then go back to operating normally.

Now imagine a Goroutine doing the same. It hits EMFILE, exits, and the supervisor restarts it. This doesn't help anything: it just hits the same error and the system is unusable. There's no way for the VM to guarantee cleanup when a Goroutine exits, because it doesn't isolate Goroutines and track which one owns which resources.

Links and monitors are tools to extend the same behavior to user-managed resources like DB connections and so on. The responsibility for cleanup if a process crashes while holding a DB connection falls on the DB connection library, not on the error handling inside the crashing process.

Protests and revolutions happen in non-Western countries quite frequently. Let’s not absolve Russians for their apathy and subservience in this respect.
Yes, of course it begs the question: that's the whole point of science. To explore and provide hypotheses which can be studied and potentially eventually proven when we can gain enough evidence at a later time.

The problem with the universe is that, right now, we operate entirely within its confines and we know we don't even fully understand its physics, let alone any sort of 'physics' which may operate outside of it--should there be something outside of it.

Unless something changes in our view of the universe, this will very likely remain a philosophical question, likely for our entire existence and the existence of whatever intelligent life forms replace the human race several times over in the coming billions of years of this planet.
It is a complicated subject with no clear resolution, IMO. Train people on a bunch of books from a local library and noone has an issue. Train a generalized AI on the same thing, and the legal result should be the same.

But what about an imaginary specialized AI that really just focuses on reproducing its input training material in a nearly verbatim way?

The current reality is somewhere in between these two extremes, and defining the boundaries sounds difficult.
Is this a side effect of low interest rates not allowing the traditional investment returns expected for the risk? Largely these folks held commercial real estate and bonds.

I keep thinking the near zero interest rates messed up a lot of things, and we’ll continue to see them pop up for the next few years.
...and this is why it's mostly a good thing that the fee %'s are capped in the EU
It’s frustrating that the article didn’t say how much the fees would be going up.
I think this is the smart way to see it. Tax avoidance is another example. Being angry with Amazon for not paying tax is like being angry at the sea for sinking your ship. The absolute best case scenario is that boycotting Amazon leads to Amazon paying marginaly more taxes, and every other company and billionaire on earth continues to avoid it.

Instead, it makes more sense to direct your energy towards the government that's letting them get away with it.

Same with monopolies; it's absolutely fundamental to their nature that we don't have any leverage over them as consumers. We can either cry impotently about Google and MS being bad guys or we can actually demand our governments do something about it. It's bizarre how often people choose the former!

I think the copyright of the training material should be propagated, and such a system can not be allowed to compete in the market without attributing and recompensating the authors. ;)
This article is pretty light on details. What exactly are the new fees? In what situations do they apply? Is there some specific reason why Visa & Mastercard are doing this at almost the same time (beyond regular greed)?
I think I am paying 3500/year now, up from 2800. My house is on the larger side (4 bedrooms), so far, I've had 2 roofs (one on my prior smaller house) in 20+ years. For me it's been 1 roof every 10 years. But I know someone who got a roof replaced and it was immediately destroyed again by a second storm. I on the other hand, fought with State Farm for 6 months about some dumb piece of metal that was dented. So, while we got hit by the second storm and likely sustained more damage, it didn't matter.

It's becoming more difficult to find a place to live that does not have some potential issue, be it water, weather, heat, cold, earthquakes.... supervolcanos :)
That's not an AI, that's a database.

The output should certainly not be copyrightable if it does not produce an existing copyrighted work or if fair use is in play, which is why many people seem to be attacking the training set itself, an argument which is also complicated but has little merit.
