Yes, it's to gather even more data. Ad agencies have figured out how to glorify this. Dell in the UK is running an ad telling the viewer that the tourists photographing and filming coral reefs are helping the scientists help preserve nature.
> Findings: In this retrospective study of prospectively collected data of 49 841 adults participating in the UK Biobank, more time spent in sedentary behaviors (determined through a machine learning–based analysis of wrist-worn accelerometer data) was significantly associated with higher risk of incident dementia.

I don't think this comes as a big surprise to anyone, but nice to have a large study reinforcing it.
Assuming you believe technological advancements are a good thing, there's a balance to be struck between depriving authors of revenue they wouldn't have had in the first place (when you write a book in 2010, do you actually do so with the intent that you'd get paid by companies developing an AI with that data?), and stifling technological progress because there's new money to be made and we haven't figured how to divide the pie. (Yes, I believe they should be paid, but I don't think authors should morally be allowed to hold their works for ransom in the 'a million dollars per book, take it or leave it' sense. There should be some more reasonable thing here.)

We're all members of society, it's not like you want to live in an authoritarian environment where only Big Brother has the rights to make that decision. Mind you, according to your logic, even the authors of the books themselves would not have the right to make a general decision, only that of their own works. But they wouldn't have any insight at all to how allowing the data be trained on models will advance our understanding of AI tech.
It would result in PHD mills, wouldn’t it?
It's my Wi-Fi hotspots, gateway, and network servers. I've got more powerful machines but it can route packets, serve http requests, manage dhcp, simple things like that without problem.

I use a USB 3.0 Ethernet cable for the second port. It can keep up just fine.
Actually metaphors literally are literal. That's why dictionaries can change the meaning of literally to mean figuratively, instead of understanding figurative language.

Copyright is a deal with society. One might just as well ask why an author has any say over transactions between two independent third parties. The answer is because it has been deemed useful for the encouragement of creative works to provide for that say. It's not immutable and the rules can easily be changed if society thinks they should be.

> The second period of subway building began in the 1960s. The downsides of the car and the infrastructure it required were becoming apparent, and some cities turned to subways to address the problems of traffic congestion. Metros built in this period include Atlanta’s MARTA in 1979, San Francisco’s BART, and Los Angeles’ Metro Rail.

Miami's Metrorail deserves a mention:

I'm sure there's some obscure reason why |& isn't the one people suggest first but when I learned about it recently it was hugely useful.

Disney’s password-sharing crackdown has begun
In some cases, yes. I know we had a temp desalination running here for a while, and they just mixed the brine with sewerage outflow.

Obviously it depends on the location of the sewerage outflow relative to the location of the plant.

Of course this only matters at scale. For the suitcase sized device mentioned in the article the amount of brine generated is negligible.
They even officially want to sell you a cooling fan. So I'm assuming the A76 is going to overheat more than the A72 in the 4?
TBH the thing I hate most about this category of SBC is the reliance on SD cards. They are both too unreliable to trust and so slow that they often bottleneck the SBC. Buying them is often a crap shoot too, I've purchased cards batches of cards from the supposed reputable manufacturers that were all over the board when benchmarked, and rarely did they hit the claimed speed spec. I would love if there was an alternative that was not as much as a jump as those SSD flash drives or NVME drive. Maybe OS grade eMMC M.2 drives the size of those wifi cards?

I promise you I wasn’t. This exactly what I meant. You are in favor of censoring not only the “nasty”, but also what doesn’t go along the narrative you believe in. Nothing by different between that and the church in Middle Ages.

But I’m glad we got to the point where you show your true self :) for what it’s worth, I support your right to say and disagree, tho I think you need to find a better way to express yourself.

Have a nice day!
This is absolutely amazing! Highlighting the hieroglyphs and explaining what they mean is amazing. Having been to the tombs, it was a bit annoying not knowing what anything meant. Lots of picture taking and then looking stuff up later + asking our guide. For those unaware, guides aren't allowed into the tombs in the Valley of the Kings/Queens.

I couldn't help but think that some AR glasses that could overlay some explanations in the tombs would be absolutely amazing. This is a close second, I'm not sure if it's my brain filling in some gaps, but I really feel like I'm there again.
Ecaudor's current government is fully supported by the current U.S. administration as they are leftists that lick Washington's boots while making all the right noises to secure support.

“Ecuador has emerged as a model in Latin America and the Caribbean for its ongoing efforts to strengthen democratic governance and human rights,” Senator Bob Menendez,

"We admire the strong voice for democracy that you have shared with the Ecuadorian people, but also for people throughout our hemisphere”, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said during his visit to Ecuador in October last year.

“You and I are united not only in our values but in our vision of the future, one that’s both free and democratic”, President Joe Biden said after meeting the Ecuadorian president in December.

'Foreign' aka U.S. intervention will only happen if Lasso pisses off Washington - like Libya's Gadaffi did. But he knows whose feet to keep massaging to stay in power. Doesn't matter how many mayors or candidates get assassinated as long as he hops to Washington D.C.
Author was at Stanford's department of computer science at 2020.

A twitter thread from a random graduate student shows nothing.
And the medical articles you're linking are related to a patient that was misdiagnosed in Canada; a proper diagnosis was made and a subsequent publication was made.

Thanks for the feedback. I took the dust out and reworked the render pipeline a bit -- and fixed some other things so you can't escape the same way in the Netherworld scenes.
It didn't exist until "recently", but my mnemonic for 2>&1 is two goes to one, but not just one, but to the same place as one, so you have to dereference it with an ampersand.

I was pleased to learn a new word: 'floruit', meaning the time at which an historical person or place was at the most productive.
So in order to form an informed opinion we have to figure out the relative costs and benefits of various options. Lets start by examining assumptions. Here we have

Fractures among children: incidence and impact on daily activities

https://injuryprevention.bmj.com/content/4/3/194

wherein we discover that kids 0-12 break bones at an incidence of 128 per 10,000. Over 12 years that's more like 1536 or about 15% of kids if injuries were evenly distributed, although they probably aren't. Still in the right ballpark.

So serious injuries among kids are incredibly common.

If we launch investigations and get it right 95% of the time we will none the less fuck up millions of kids lives. We would probably be better off selectively investigating when there is at least some reason to believe something is afoot instead of every injury.
I hope not.

It only feels like recently that you can pick up a RPi 4 used for the price they should've been new. Otherwise, scalped listings on eBay or Amazon have took over. I still want my first RPi but I already have associated them with being hard to buy and way more expensive than makes sense.
> That tension seems to inevitably lead to obvious features missing or functionality/knowledge that's needed to operate at any scale coistered away as closed source so the sponsoring entity can make some money.

This is not inevitable at all. You're right that there's a tension there, but there are companies that manage to do this right, and please both OSS and commercial users.

The fact many companies don't is not an indication that this business model doesn't work, but that it's very hard to do correctly.
Excellent comparison because the implementation details of free speech are far from obvious and have been constantly tuned and tweaked over the centuries. (“Liberty” isn’t any specific right.)

It’s easy to pick an example that you consider benevolent and harmless. But have you considered that authors simply may not want their work included in a Simpsons meme generator?

Samuel Beckett dictated the set design for his plays to every last detail. Because of long copyright, you still can’t perform your own version of “En attendant Godot” today. I don’t think that’s necessarily a good thing. But I have to respect Beckett’s obsessive creative vision and that the law doesn’t let me (or Disney) make our own versions of Godot yet.

Re: your edit —

You wouldn’t have written the books I’m selling on Kindle in your name. So by the same logic that there’s no harm to authors when Meta and Google and OpenAI sell products derived from pirated books, there’s no harm to you when I use your name for my own ventures.

Sillysaurusx created a database whose only appeal is that it contains works by famous authors. This is not fundamentally different from me writing a book in your name.

This device has a PCIe 2.0 x1 connector now, so NVMe drives should be usable now.

The Compute Module 4 series have been able to support eMMC chips, so I don't see why they wouldn't continue with the 5 if/when it shows up
Not necessarily with some proper regulations for accreditation etc. Getting a PhD in STEM in the US is not trivial.
I tried Flutter for the first time for a hackathon and was able to make a pretty nice looking app with it, complete with a custom audio player UI talking to an API, in around 24 hours. Never tried Dart before that. My code wasn't pretty but I'd also say the learning curve is not too steep, especially because the hot reload is so good you can easily iterate and try things.

Agreed. I recently had the rather unpleasant discovery that when samsung called their SD cards “high endurance”, they actually meant 3-6 months, and that half of the video on my dashcam was missing.
The Raspberry Pi 5 is finally here
What do you mean with vague information? There is an entire blog post describing the product: https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/introducing-raspberry-pi-5/
I think you are referring to the future perfect tense.

Did you read the blog post? :)

"Raspberry Pi 5 consumes significantly less power, and runs significantly cooler, than Raspberry Pi 4 when running an identical workload. However, the much higher performance ceiling means that for the most intensive workloads, and in particular for pathological “power virus” workloads, peak power consumption increases to around 12W, versus 8W for Raspberry Pi 4."
Yikes. Suicide by gun isn't guaranteed, at all. You would think it would be, but that's not the case. Last second flinch and now you're a stoic veggie from here on out.

Suicide bags. Those are the way to go for a painless death with better odds of success.
That wonky carousel breaks the whole page: https://i.imgur.com/TkTKE06.png
I wonder how many more millions of $ and megabytes of frameworks it would take to just make a decent web page which isn't broken.
It's complicated as there were many different claims made against Microsoft in the lawsuit, some were upheld on appeal and some were overturned. But the specific claim I was replying to (that bundling Internet Explorer with Windows violated antitrust law) was one of the ones overturned by the appeals court.
That's shifting the goalposts. They're totally different things.

I know the comments I post here are probably going to end up in more than a dozen web scrape databases, and I'm personally fine with that. I'm not fine with somebody impersonate me and steal my identity.

Are there any allegations at all that the books3 database misrepresents any works of any authors? Not even the generative models do that -- if it was obvious that the models had a tendency to misattribute authorship of works, they'd have been sued for that (among other things) already.

You don't get to respond to "why would anyone focus on the fact that no harm has been caused when we could be talking about theoretical harms that we can’t describe or quantify??" by making up more fictional harms that you have no evidence happened.
Did you read the blog post? :)

"One of the most exciting additions to the Raspberry Pi 5 feature set is the single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface. Intended to support fast peripherals, it is exposed on a 16-pin, 0.5mm pitch FPC connector on the left-hand side of the board.

From early 2024, we will be offering a pair of mechanical adapter boards which convert between this connector and a subset of the M.2 standard, allowing users to attach NVMe SSDs and other M.2-format accessories."
The copy feels like they hired ex Apple marketing guys to produce that launch page.
It’s pretty horrifying. I never thought about the raw number, but millions of animals tortured and killed every day is astounding. Hundreds of millions. Future generations are going to look back in horror.
Cling has been largely upstreamed as `clang-repl`. All distributions of clang+tools has it now, and unlike Cling this supports the latest Clang features. However Cling still has some special features for GPGPU that `clang-repl` doesn't.
At the moment the product page is just a list of specs, but the blog post goes into much more detail, including describing the new RP1 I/O controller:

https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/introducing-raspberry-pi-5/

On pre-ordering:

> We’re also giving every print subscriber to The MagPi and HackSpace magazines a single-use code, giving them priority access to Raspberry Pi 5 hardware.

A subscription is US$43 and up, and gets you a priority code to use at PiShop or The Pi Hut. You pay full price for the RPi 5, but it ships to you first.
That's how copyright works. To create a derivative work, you need a license.

It's no more derivative than the works the authors produce, publicize and sell on their open source software platforms. Are they also going to be charged for every book released that has in some way contributed to their cultural hinterland?

We're talking about building a cultural context en-masse - not taking individual books to enjoy for free and plagiarise.

That single vs mass use of the books makes a significant ethical difference.
Loved your previous book, will the new book "Practical Math for Programmers" will be released this year?
Open Core is a really risky bet. Any dedicated developer can fork your project and add the Premium feature they like the most, and then there's nothing your company can do about it.

When people use an open source project, they usually expect everything in the project to be open source and will go to great lengths to not pay you, including sabotaging any of your efforts to try to get paid.
The LKML is all the proof the OP needs to show he contributed and precisely in what way. This post is way over the top and even if Michael Ellerman could have handled this better so could the OP.
Pi5 is already on Geekbench. Speed seemed to be on the ballpark of a mobile Intel i5 dual core 4xxx IIRC.
When I look at Twitter, I think first about the business model, and then I think about the app. I think, today, it's a lot easier to build Twitter the user facing app, even at scale.

Where I see your engineering headcount blow up is in moderation, legal and advertising; which I think everyone skips over when doing their mental math. Campaign management, targeting, reporting, and optimization on such a large corpus of data is where I struggle to see even a team of 5 building that in a couple of weekends.
In most dysfunctional systems its functionally impossible for individual actors to fix any part of the overarching system and MUST necessarily choose between dysfunctional options with an eye on least bad outcomes.
I don't agree it is continually, I see Chrome as already in the 'extinguish' phase. Chrome was able to make the improvements faster than competitors because - without an bottomless money engine in the form of a search monopoly - they weren't competitors at all. The price we pay for a few years of higher performance may be many more years of reduced innovation from competition.
Why is the micro sd a problem? It was there on the early pi (as a normal sized SD slot) since it was cheap, easy to implement and widely available. And the chips could not boot off usb so there was that. These days I guess it is mostly for legacy purposes and the pi can boot of usb anyway if you don't want to bother with it.
Knowing and reflecting upon what you know are two different things. And even then the outcomes may be different than what you would expect.
Interestingly the Pi 5 has moved most I/O like Ethernet, USB, MIPI and GPIO into a custom I/O controller chip called the RP1. It talks to the main CPU over 4-lane PCIe. They also have a custom PMIC (Dialog DA9091) with a built-in RTC and support for external backup battery. Everything else seems pretty standard.
Indeed, it's especially problematic in the public sector. Since there's generally no reward for successful risk management, yet severe consequences for misjudgments, it fosters a culture of risk aversion. Another example is at the FDA, where an overemphasis on caution can inadvertently lead to more harm than good by delaying or preventing the approval of beneficial treatments.

Agree. And the hilarity of selling this as "being in the moment"...

Urgh.
Compiling diffs - but if the user experience is REPL-ish and it can help some people learn the _basics_ of the language, what's wrong with that?

(Wrong as in "murdering puppies" wrong, not as in "here are the downsides of X" which I believe exist for every X.)
Right, but only if you know what to look for, and are actively looking.
For this case I would assume it's the security concerns that go with a publicly-accessible subway line directly under the building.

The odd part is that this is not just for fun. For many physicists when I was at CERN, a C++ REPL was a commonly used tool to interactively debug analyses to such a degree that many never compiled their code. Back then, I believe, it was some custom implementation included in ROOT (https://root.cern/). I even went out of my way to write C++ code compatible to it just so it could run in that custom C++ REPL implementation, otherwise some colleagues weren't interested in collaborating at all.
Yeah I was wondering how come every sunglasses cost north of EUR 150, and then learned about Luxottica.

Overwhelmingly Yes, and perhaps no.

Yes it's crazy hard to do it non-destructively for many smartphones as a normal user. The same way it's just hell to replace the batteries sometimes (still remember the 52 steps process for the previous gen iPad pros).

No in that normal users should also not store a trove of past smartphones (or any electronic device) if they can't remove the battery, so the only people that should have this problem are iFixit grade tinkerers, for whom 50+ steps of disassembly should be fine.

That could be another angle on "why should I care about battery accessibility in my phone" ?

It’s not about features, it’s about their algorithms.

Think about TikTok: It’s essentially just an app that lets you scroll through videos, yet it became breathtakingly popular just due to the fact that they seem to know exactly which videos you may want to see.
