Cool to see Russ Tedrakes recent work! His online course Underactuated Robotics is a very good course to get a grasp on the complexities faced in robotics.

It's exciting to see someone with a bit more deeper knowledge than "Flex tape slap LLM on robotics" featured here, which is majority of Robot Learning work upvoted on HN.

There's more to it than just language learning to be solved before we can have proper embodied agents in the chaotic real world.
Business administrators are needed, even in a worker-owned socialist business, even if just to enforce the worker decisions.

Hard eyeroll. How many proprietary soft drinks did different pharmacies and restaurants provide across the nation in 1886? The concept of the soft drink business is so pervasive that in the US, the lemonade stand is the most basic business we teach kids. So a lot, probably. Somehow common sense logic and business basics should have turned any of them into a $2Tn empire, 150 years later (oh and $66mm in seed money in today's terms with no time restriction from the investor). I haven't seen hindsight applied with such conviction since I hung out with the last super successful investor who fell pray to applying his expertise in one domain to another where it doesn't belong. Whatever Mr Munger did for Mr Buffet, writing insights of this type was not it.

Until now I had never even heard of the North American Council for Freight Efficiency. Can you elaborate on what makes them crooks?
Personally nowhere. It’s delivered via web, RSS, and email. If other people with blogs find it interesting it might get posted by them on their websites.

And at times people post my content here on HN but I’d never do it myself.
"Our computer program which digests massive amounts of data works kinda-sorta vaguely like a human brain" is just irrelevant. It's a computer program, and we're nowhere near the point of having serious ethical debates about science fiction AGI.

The law just doesn't particularly care about the details of your ML model, OpenAI is still processing massive amounts of copyrighted work without which their software would be nearly useless. That's the interesting legal question.
True, but with some tweaks this is a representative model.

You can just carry any non-100% gain/loss "swimlane" as a game still-in-progress. Eventually on larger time scale, puchasing power adjusted or not, a swimlane of an investment will certainly hit one of those outcomes.

The outcome is a function of time but a large number of swimlanes guarantees that you can sample any time and observe the same distribution of settled outcomes. You can reasonably assume that the probability of transition from unsettled to settled state at any time is constant. You could model it as markov process. In fact there are many economic agent models doing something like this (OLG models where generations of economic agents overlap in time as child/worker/retiree). Even though these models make sense only on generational scale, with enough agents you can see the micro-structure being consistent in smaller time scales by "ticking" or sampling at smaller time steps the markov process.

The spending power issue could be ignored as "without loss of generality" in most cases or the thesis could be restated in terms of something that preserves purchasing power as part of the coin toss game.

Investment returns mean-revert only if allowed to by policy. Policy can override economic forces for very long generational time scales, thus making it still relevant for individuals.

And I personally don't agree with (or don't understand) these models being used for micro-structure analysis, but I think macro-level interpretations such as wealth distribution may be valid.

Also, it reinforces that fact that everyone should pronounce SQL as 'squeal'.

That is a strawman, and you could make the same argument about any combination of clubs you belong to, as long as they don't include the whole planet.

I simply have no interest in a club that explicitly excludes half of the population. A men only club in my mind is just as appealing as a "white people only" club. I.e. not at all.

That makes sense. I've probably been thinking more about remote network protocols, where the time it takes for a message to reach its destination will be so large that the overhead for a few extra bytes per message is negligible; for a protocol used solely within a given local system, there would be a much lower threshold of acceptable overhead.

>Border cops are the worst.

You used to be able to re-enter the US with just your birth certificate and a driver's license, ~18+ years ago or so. I was 19 and driving back into the US just north of Bellingham, WA, and this rule was set to change later on in the year, but it was still legal to use this method at my time of travel. The border patrol agent literally said to me, "You know, I have half a mind to not let you in right now with these, because that's what's going to happen to you in a few months if you try this shit again."

Like... what? He let me in, but that statement was bizarre.
> a scam NGO for nepotism and transfers of wealth

I thought you might be exaggerating, but if the wikipedia entry is to believed it seems like a pretty obvious case of laundering bribes:

"In 2003, Buyer created The Frontier Foundation, whose stated purpose is educational funding for college students ... Buyer's daughter Colleen was the president ... His son Ryan, in 2009, was director ... the foundation shared an office with Buyer's campaign office ... annual fundraising golf outings had raised more than $880,000 for the foundation. Almost all the contributions were from 20 companies and trade organizations that had interests before the House Energy and Commerce Committee, of which Buyer is a member ... In 2018, the Frontier Foundation was closed by Buyer, the only listed officer, without ever having funded a scholarship."

Reminds my of when I tried to resurrect and old DJI drone with an out of date iPad mini for a controller. I turn on drone, launch the app and try several times to take off and fail. Try one last time assuming failure and it starts to take off! But then...

Just as the drone starts to drift towards me, several notifications pop up within the app/iOS preventing control and sending me into a panic.

Drone hits the house shredding a few blades, starts to careen and then before it hits me, a brave family member grabs the landing strut and keeps it in a death grip until I can dismiss the warnings and "land".
> Four decades of the internet (accelerated by COVID) has given us trillions of tokens’ worth of training data.

I said nothing of your character. I only commented on the action itself. We are human and we make mistakes, but we're not defined by those mistakes.

Advertising is unethical. I would encourage you to start with considering that position, read some opinions on this topic, and spend time considering the harm that advertising causes not only directly on the human, but also the incentives and ecosystems and structures of capitalism that advertising enables and perpetuates that also harms humans.

It is possible you simply don't hold the same values as me and many other people. Namely that people should not be harmed, capitalism perpetuates a lot of harm, people have rights to protect themselves from harm, and whether the means justify the ends.

I wish you well regardless.

Maybe you meant "and possibly", since otherwise the 'or' there detracts from the point I think you're trying to make (that ludicrous amounts of wealth requires luck regardless of what talent, skill, or determination you bring).
Wow, I wish you all the best with this product, but your view of what apple intends with the vision pro is either intentionally naive or wishful thinking.

This kind of seems like a sci-fi scenario, not something that is likely to happen.

If lawn-care companies wanted to do targeted advertising based on how your lawn is looking, they can already use satellite imagery for that. They don't need drone cameras.

These drones also aren't going to fly by your window. They fly above the height of houses, trees, etc. - and they are too small ads you could see from that height
Speeding up Floyd-Steinberg dithering: an optimization exercise
That just doesn't match my reality. Maybe I run in the wrong circles, but I've never heard any leftists I know discuss societal issues with sympathy towards men in general. There's sympathy for individuals facing their problems, but nothing like the article.

What discourse I've seen that focuses on men's issues from the left tends to not really get it. If they just tsk tsk harder at Jordan Peterson and criticize toxic masculinity harder, surely the incels will realize the error of their ways. Meanwhile, other groups are offering a sense of purpose in life that doesn't require feeling ashamed of yourself. Even if that purpose is not a good one, don't be surprised that people sign up for it.

It's hard to think that even centrists are interested in fixing the problem when there's headlines like this:

> Biden criticizes ‘white man’s culture’ as he talks violence against women

https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/27/politics/joe-biden-white-mans...

That's just a random example. The article adds a bit more color, but not much. Do you think rhetoric like that will draw in any white men that don't have a shame kink? I don't, and a few weak hand-wringing articles here and there don't make up for it.

Right now it supports a custom brand color, logo, optional separate logo for dark backgrounds, and icon. (There’s some fun code for determining where and how to use the brand color to maintain sufficient color contrast).

Interesting, I wonder if I’m experiencing something a little bit similar that Comcast can’t seem to debug.

Almost every day, in the heat of summer, I get one to five 10-minute outages as soon as the temp gets over about 80F. More when it’s hotter, usually. Usually it results in a modem reset, so it’s hard to tell how long the actual outage is.

Been happening for going on 5 years. They replaced the under-street cable from our house to the junction box across the street to no effect. I suspect it’s that junction box, but afaict, none of my neighbors that share that junction box have the same issue. Not very fun to have your WFH day collapse unexpectedly in the middle of the afternoon.

Strangely, for the last month we’ve had several days of 80+ temps with no sign of outage. So fun.

Edit: yes of course multiple modem replacements and inside cable checks, to no avail.

I don't see how sending a bad length could cause a memory issue in this case; if a message has a length that's much longer than expected, the receiving side could just discard any future messages from that destination (or even immediately close the connection). If the message is much shorter than the data received, the bytes following it would be treated as the start of a new message, and the same logic would apply.

Yeah, it's really strange how hard they make it to manage, download, and get full prompts for your images on all these platforms. I made this discord bot for midjourney which with some easy configuration can download and annotate all your images, including as much info as I could grab about version, etc. https://github.com/ernop/social-ai/tree/main/SocialAI

Even then it's not perfect since I'm getting info off of the command you send, which may have fallen into whatever the defaults were at the time, and so when interpreted today, not easily possible to reconstruct the version/seed/etc. from that point in the past, if you didn't include it in the prompt. But still, I just like having a folder of 30k images that I can never lose, with at least the prompt, so I can go through and re-run them later (even manually) to get comparisons over time.
Yes. There are so many details in the story that are unbelievable. I will possibly believe that there was some original true story with some subset of these circumstanced but it got rearranged and exaggerated for effect.

I will never believe that GM sent an engineer to troubleshoot this problem. Maybe in a small town a local dealer's mechanic spent some time troubleshooting but he probably figured out it was based on the short shut off time. Then he speculated that it took less time to get Vanilla than the other flavors? I doubt that is true - most likely it was random. It is amazing how often a random sequence will have an extended sequence that our brains won't believe is random.

Not sure I even believe there was any genuine observation of correlation from the owner. These type of apocryphal technical support stories are almost always formed backward from a problem and someone tries to think of the most insane way it could have manifested. But people love to believe them.

A friend works in environmental science and his advice when it comes to cars and climate is to keep your car for as long as possible, regardless of gas vs. electric. Obviously YMMV but generally speaking the emissions "cost" of manufacturing and delivering the car in the first place is huge, and the way the numbers work out, it's better to amortize that over as long a time as you can than it is to frequently buy a replacement, even if it's electric.
