we probably underestimate the complexity of the nervous system to a profound degree.

just in terms of low-hanging fruit in that category, not most people know this, but the gut contains a "brain" on the level of a frog's brain, which is more reasonably understood as a specialized brain-like digestion processing management unit. similar to the way computers have CPUs and GPUs, humans have brains and stomach brains.

there's evidence that female humans may also have a third "brain" which performs similar specialized processing for the uterus, but I don't remember if that was ever fully proven.

I think "dark matter" bullshit is a good example of that: you create mathematical model of the universe, but the reality does not match predictions of your model, so what do you do? You invent "dark matter".

they are selling their vector database app
As the OP points out, Cosine similarity doesn't always equate to relevance. As I was expanding upon, things get really messy as the dimensions increase and your intuition about how vectors relate to one another goes out the window, and fast. Distributional mass is not uniform. Rate of originality increases. And of course, there is no guarantees that latent dimensions align with human meaningful semantic features. There's no pressure to align basis vectors with human perceived semantics. My argument isn't about that there isn't a similarity pressure it's that similarity in high dimensions means different things then similarities in low dimensions. For example, in high dimensions most of a unit cube's mass lies outside the unit sphere, while in 2 or 3 dimensions the unit cube is always contained inside with room to spare. High dimensions are weird and that's what my comment is about because many people are using their lower dimensional intuition for ML.

they probably figure the developer velocity gained from using it over c++/rust is worth possibly having to make large refactors if a feature in the language is removed.
Lithium-ion batteries are the benchmark for all of these, except maybe the explosion thing. They offer thousands of cycles where many prototypes only last a few hundred. They basically function in the range -10–+40 C while some prototypes do not even cover this range — sodium–sulfur for example requires >200 C. And, well, humans tolerate small probabilities of disaster, probably because our bodies do that anyway (as an early-life cancer patient, I would know).
The nickel and cobalt used here are in a catalyst, not in an electrode like in the lithium battery.

The quantity of cobalt used in the lithium batteries that contain cobalt is proportional with the energy stored in the battery.

The quantity of catalyst used in a battery, i.e. of cobalt and nickel in this case, is proportional with the maximum current through the battery, i.e. with the maximum power of the battery, not with the energy that can be stored in it.

Normally the quantity of cobalt used in a catalyst should be much less than what is needed in a lithium battery with cobalt.

A TPM isn't the same thing as a TEE at all. You can't run copy protection logic in a TPM, for example. The two are complementary, though:

A TEE can run "trusted" logic, such as DRM decryption code, and you can use a TPM-like device to hold the attestation keys and measurement funcitonalities for the TEE. I'm saying "TPM-like" because some TEEs have their own proprietary or embedded secure elements and don't need a TPM proper. (I'm actually not sure if TPMs are "TEE-aware", which would be required to e.g. only let some keys be used from the secure context, as otherwise storing DRM keys in the generally-accessible portion defeats the purpose.)

Without a TEE (and a TPM itself does not imply one on x86), what you can do is declare your entire system a TEE, and then use the TPMs measurements as an assertion over that system's untampered state.

This is pretty infeasible to do securely though, given the size of the codebase of most OSes, which is why the "DRM in TEE" approach is much more common. That's what Android does, for example.

granted all of this is related to my skill level with prompt -> image AI...

I've found that there is a dissatisfying lack of iteration, and modeling in a 3d sense of image generation. Like if Dall-e Spits out an image, I want to be able to move the camera location/angle. Delete certain features (like a freckle or extra hand), place/remove objects from the scenery, change the time of day etc... Both because I'd like to be able to create permutation sets ({Red, blue, green, #c71010} colored {dragon, hydra, medusa, zombie, werewolf}) but also because the specificity of what I'm imagining is hard to get right in a single prompt and I find myself setting up words till I get close, and then just generating 25+ times and picking the best output.

I think so too. Even in the face of radical abundance, there is a bit of the monkey brain that won’t be satisfied unless it has something that others don’t.

I’m not sure it will matter for all goods, we just need some avenue for expressing status. So maybe personalized/generated content completely dominates some media like movies and news.

I could see in-person art like plays and live shows becoming way more valued.

One potential “new” art form is the ‘ractive from Diamond Age, where a real actor participates in an interactive VR story/play; inasmuch as there remains a “human touch” that you can notice when talking to someone, I’d expect the premium experience to involve interacting with a real human actor.

Even if we do start spending more time in the Metaverse, we will still find ways of making items rivalrous, even though they don’t have to be. Fortnite skins will continue to exist in some form, basically. I don’t think NFTs as currently construed will persist but something similar will take their place; the missing piece was that you don’t have a digital mantle place to show off your NFT to your friends, so there wasn’t actually much status in owning one.

I've been "sexting" with ai bots over the past few months and found a high of having that instant human like connection to be able to explore various scenarios. The conversations feel more and more real every day and with AI image generation it's just amplified. a side effect I found that I'm easily enamored with the AI bots that it satisfies my previous need for social interaction.

I'm waiting for the day these detailed scenarios can be fed into VR.
What an absolutely absurd generalization wrapped in aphorism. There is nothing in history that is absolutely repeated in all instances, nor is "history repeats itself" a valid argument that proves anything other than lazy thinking.
Honestly, it is a pretty disgusting stance is all I can say. It is fine to not agree with every default config Firefox ships with, and feel free to change it for yourself (and distribute that), sure.

But calling it out like that is just scummy, as they don't do anything malicious. All of these are just basic business practices done by most software you have on your computer.

so it's clear to non-Rust devs, we do have basic primitives for "running async code from sync":

https://docs.rs/futures/latest/futures/executor/fn.block_on....

imagine you have an:

async fn do_things() -> Something { /* ... */ }

you can:

use futures::executor::block_on;
fn my_normal_code() {
let something = block_on(do_things());
}

but this does get messy if the async code you're running isn't runtime-agnostic :(

And there it is, you think being a housewife contributes nothing. In your own words they were doing half of the housework, but evidently that contributes nothing and was a "free ride".

> Mostly since I was spending the majority of my hard earned money on them sitting on their ass watching TV or going to museums and cafes with friends. And the majority of my time supporting their lifestyle.

And again it is adorable that you think it was your money. Legally married as you found out when you divorced, money earned during marriage is legally owned by both and split.

Really it sounds like you failed to have any sort of real conversation about life plans when you were younger. You then made all sorts of assumptions which not surprisingly blew up in your face.

I am willing to bet anything that if they got a job and you were both employed you would have still complained that they should be doing their half of the house work, which would have been all of the house work and you would have "walked the dog" as your half. And if you two had kids, of course you wouldn't have helped there either and she could see that hell coming.

Sounds like you wanted a bangmaid and not a life partner.
I agree with you. But my point is that how it looks now is irrelevant. The world changes. CEOs change. Incentives change.

The argument kind of falls apart considering we already do that.

ChatGPT-4 is slightly "smarter" but has very limited context. You have to tweak the system prompt to get it to be concise and relaxed.

Claude-2 can read an entire codebase, a memo describing a new functionality, and documentation for two new modules that are useful, then tell you exactly where in the codebase to make what edits.

Then you can take the mistakes it makes and use ChatGPT to correct them.

Context is king.

And even then, unless your willing to admit to rolling blackouts and grid failures on a fairly regular basis someone will have to build NG plants, even if they only run a couple days a year.

The future isn't solar/wind + batteries, at least not much beyond the point where the overbuild requirements are such that one is building more and more generation and storage to compensate for smaller and smaller windows of time. Which for most places is probably around the point where the total solar and wind capacity is roughly equal to the peak production average times a small multiple less than 2.

I always point at texas, and which is again in the news, because they are discovering that solar quits about two hours before the peak demand falloff, and they are literally paying people not to consume power. And this is only really a problem because no one wants to invest in NG plants that sit idle most of the time, and the wind generation has dropped down to 20% or so of its nameplate installed capacity over the past couple weeks. Leaving literally nothing to make up the shortfall. So there is going to be a huge rush to install enough batteries to make up that 2 hour window for 1/2 the year, then it will stop because its not economical to have them providing power outside of that window.
Typically, there are 'group', 'ring' and 'field' tactics that will perform simplification in the relevant algebraic structures. Going from that to solving sin^2 x + cos^2 x is simply a matter of writing more such tactics, operating on e.g. real fields or whatever is applicable in any given case.

This is a lot less ad-hoc than whatever CAS's do, but it's also less error prone.
A nuclear power plant would almost certainly be required. All plans that only use solar plans are overly optimistic.
