Your purchasing folks and CXX people are doing it for other reasons, like a convenient scapegoat, liability shift, etc, if things go wrong. "We experienced a day-long outage due to a problem with a third party vendor". Or plain old job security...it's hard for them to accept a process where something gets selected without their input.
But using +/÷≢ to mean average isn't like using AddReduceDivideTally, it's like +/÷≢. With substantial array programming experience I do read this as a single word and pronounce it "average"; why should the fact that each symbol has its own meaning prevent me from processing them as a group? It's purely a benefit in that I can (more slowly) recognize something like +/÷⊢/⍤≢ as a variant of average, in this case to average each row of an array.

My opinion on the overall question, which I've written about at [0], is that it's very widely acknowledged that both symbols and words are useful in programming. This is why languages from PHP to Coq to PL/I all have built-in symbols for arithmetic, and usually a few other things, and built-in and user-defined words. The APL family adds symbols for array operations, and often function manipulation. Perhaps not for everyone, but, well, it's kind of weird to see a proof that a language I use to understand algorithms more deeply couldn't possibly do this!

Seems like we could also just add it to the other places where water is flowing into the ocean. Do we not disrupt the ocean ecosystem with our fresh water runoff?
I think if you did it at that scale it might flood the market and push the price down. You might be able to trade it to areas with a legitimate need, but you'd be competing against the people who just scoop it from ancient seabeds with a bulldozer.
That doesn't seem to be line-wrapped correctly either. How about this one?

You are absolutely try. No I haven't worked for company like this. Also, I don't even know how these massive companies sell their product in a hyper competitive enterprise market.
This is probably the intended behavior of github, but correctly maintaining that invariant is exactly the sort of functionality middle management and project managers tend to deprioritize.

Outside the edit window: I just realized that I missed the mention of the timescale. The apnea/hypopnea index is measured in terms of events per hour, and my doctors never discussed it in any other terms, so I automatically interpreted those numbers as per hour.

I sure hope nobody's getting a job based on a single patch.
So to your point, I do think it would be nice to have an AI assistant suggest to make changes to the view mode of an application. For instance, if I navigate to a certain area the AI might suggest that I make that option visible in my menu. I might say no, because I prefer to use the hotkey. Aside from that, I'm going to have to absolutely side with the parent commenter on this one - When I'm doing serious work I want a familiar interface that I know how to move around efficiently in. I don't want any surprises.

Suggestions to improve workflow sound great. But nullifying hard earned knowledge of an interface... I can't see that helping me.

The shining example in my mind is audio/video/graphics applications, where there are good reasons to routinely switch between different views. Knowing your way around those views (which might be custom, but still static), and being able to navigate through them quickly is very valuable.

Sometimes broot feels a little busy or complex to me, though. I'm interested in your tool's UI as well.
This sounds cool, but every page just says "Loading..." on Firefox Mobile
"This change is closely based on a well-considered patch from A. U. Thor <author@example.com>, who also originated the bug report."

A. U. Thor can point to that 10 years later and say he or she fixed that; nobody cares if the maintainer changed a few things.
I think you are not the target customer that the holding companies is looking for. I would try to see an out and look for another vendor, tool or alternative.
I would say that for most people I know well, their life is their work, at least in very large part. The ones who "work to live" are mostly doing non-creative task or service-type jobs. Anyone doing anything creative or impactful seems to identify as their job in a pretty significant way. It will be one of the first things they start talking about, other than maybe telling you their name.

There is some variation between age groups. The older people I know are very much wrapped up in their work. The younger ones not always so much.
I wonder who in audience was cheering for Horizon Worlds getting more features. There are hardly any useful experiences in there. Mostly it's obscenity screaming people, alarmingly often sounding very young.
This is a really cool project. I wish I was better at doing electronics construction, wish I could just buy one too. 40 hours of life on a coin battery is pretty impressive.
Not even remotely close. OW2 introduced a battle pass riddled with dark patterns, removed all passive cosmetics collection while focusing on pushing cosmetics, changed gameplay balanced haphazardly for the worse to justify the "2" in the name, and the playerbase saw these hostile actions for what they are.

CS2 does exactly none of these things and instead keeps the gameplay and social contract largely unchanged. Gameplay issues with smokes have finally been addressed, the game renderer has been modernized, and the playerbase reaction is overwhelmingly positive.
It's not really an analogy though. The US is really behind in consumer rights compared to the EU.

The SEC's existence doesn't change that. It's like saying we have a EPA and a ATF. But those aren't consumer protection agencies either.
I agree with you, Python packaging is in a rough state.
I have it running on my Mac using ollama now; Does it say anywhere what quantization scheme is being used? ollama seems a bit opaque here.

When it downloaded the model it only downloaded about 4GB. Which, for a 7.3B parameter model implies that it's 4-bit quantized. But I don't see that listed anywhere (or an option to use, say, Q8 instead)

If this is the case I'm pretty impressed with a quick tinker, it feels pretty coherent for a 7B @ Q4.
Yes. Domestic use is a tiny fraction of all water usage. However, as you point out it is necessary to incorporate the food water to determine actual water independence.

600 AUD/ML is ~400 USD/ML. The Sorek B plant in Israel is profitably contracted at ~0.40 USD/m^3 [1] which is comparable. That is one of the largest plants with cutting edge technology and one of the cheapest prices I have seen in my research. A quote of 600 AUD/ML for desalinated water right now in Australia seems a tad questionable, but not outside of what is possible. 2-3x that number is almost certainly believable (though they almost certainly do not have bulk scale) and would only increase the costs to 1.5% of GDP.

the whole argument is about whether a sentence like "Hypatia was a first-rank mathematician" is accurate. Obviously that hinges on the definition of "first-rank" since no one is disputing her actual accomplishments or claiming that they really compare to all-time greats like Gauss or Archimedes.

It was the person I'm replying to who used "first-rate" actually. I don't think there's a big difference in meaning between the two.

Usage examples show nuance in the meaning of a word that are not captured in the definition.
Same thing. MC was made to emulate NC. And of course there are actually countless filesystem browsers. Even xtree was probably not the first since that was on ms-dos, and I bet there were some on the 8-bit machines before that.

But this one's aim seems to be a bit specific and not simply to be a filesystem browser (file manager) but specifically to try to be an "interactive ls". IE somehow feel like ls. Though I don't know why. It doesn't seem more useful than a normal file manager. I think it's just down to a very fine point of aesthetics, which is fair enough.
Based on figmert’s comment, you might want to update the incorrect title too.
It is not, yet, a full replacement. You can use Swift UI for some kinds of apps but there are UIs that are still harder in it. Apple acknolwedges that some people still need to use Appkit. It’s clear that their long term plan is to build out Swift UI to be enough to fully replace the older libraries.
So the engineers that built this edited this release directly? Or did they write code that built this?
Eventually everyone in the trades is going to have to wear these things.
The only way I've found to keep everyone playing nice is to have them keep having them (video) meet from time to time.

That awkwardness of people meeting after having talked to each other by text in the typical tech tantrum snarky speak that typifies the industry, is gold. Then you see them trying to walk all sorts back to try and clear that awkwardness.

They remember that feeling next time they consider texting like that.

Not really doable in open source though.
Google refuses to open up the Android RCS API to third party developers. To me this seems like an attempt to lock in users into their own messaging app, unlike SMS which does support third party apps like Textra.

Hot take: I don't think that people should even use queues any more. It's like using raw HTTP2, or managing threads.

Use a workflow engine which abstracts queues for you so you can "just write code" without managing jobs/schedules/state/retries.

No idea about anything automated for it but my understanding is that you really can't prevent the problems. I think I read that 70% is more ideal thoguh, because it will keep a charge longer in the better range for the chemistry. The real problem is that the chemistry itaelf of the batteries will slowly and irreversibly break down over time whixh is why once it discharges past a certain point it may not be safe ever again to charge the battery without reprocessing the materials into a new battery. The safest way is really to remove the battery entirely and replace it once you're wanting to use it again. This might also make it easier to keep the battery at a safe charge level if you can find something else to handle it.
I've always called this "cognitive dissonance", but it is the same thing that http://www.paulgraham.com/identity.html talks about. Once something becomes associated with your identity, you take threats to it as an existential attack on you. And immediately rationality goes out of the window. But we're not AWARE of ourselves being irrational - everything that we say seems obvious, natural, and right.

Our inability to judge extends to others.

It certainly deserves a better name.
> For most organizations, this behavior is incidental to their incentives. For unions, it's a primary motivation.

For unions, it has only ever been a means to an end (with that end being things like having days off, and safe working conditions) Corporations on the other hand throw human lives away because it makes them money, and making money is all they care about. That's why the bodies of children were being mangled in the machinery of the industrial revolution and it's why children are still dying in garment factory disasters today.

“Many” seconds per day strikes me as an overstatement.

This is about interop. I'm not interested in iMessage. I do, however, want to be able to have group chats that don't suck and images that don't compress to death when I message friends with iPhones. Unsurprisingly, my friends with iPhones want the same thing when they message me.

So when Google Glass came out, people using them were "Glassholes" because of the ability to record surreptitiously, albeit for a very short period. And there was no mistaking Glass. Meta's look normal and I doubt the LED indicator will draw enough attention this time around. Plus as others have noted, by the time you notice it's already too late and anyway the onus is on you to ask the wearer to stop. And this is worse, as it streams directly to social media. There should be some (legal) way to jam these devices within a certain proximity radius.
Not in my case, it works just fine. (Always using Firefox Mobile)
ZIRP was keeping moral high. That ride is over for now.
+- 2 seconds per day is their worst case specifications (watches being stored in weird orientation, with high temperature etc.). It is common for standard usage watch to be within 10 secs monthly.
> In most rural and suburban USA towns, cars are the only thing that enables connection to others.

I mean I suppose this is technically true. But as someone who was raised across a smatter of rural and sparse suburb and who now lives in/near dense urban areas - the urban areas are the ones having much more trouble feeling a sense of connection.

In all of the rural areas, everyone knew each other by first name, greeted each other, dropped by with baked goods. Were they dependent on cars? Yeah I guess. Feels like we missed the elephant in the room though
That is some source. That is not the source behind what built the 14GB model.

Most deserts are inhabited by endangered or threatened species. There aren't actually a lot of deserts so lifeless that you could avoid environmental activists getting in the way, at least not in the US.
I’ve seen many “applied” category theory posts and books but it’s important to remember that pure mathematicians’ definition of “applied” is way different than and more boring than you’d think. I still have to see some insights that CT gave us about a real world application that wouldn’t have been discovered without CT. Most of CT to me seems like definitions on top of definitions.

It is easy to think bad things of others that you know to be true of yourself.

Are you in the US? Do you report that revenue as personal income on your taxes? If yes, then I think it’s fair to call it profit (since you’re also presumably deducting expenses).
I check the VAC history of my matchmaking player history every once in a while. Not a single cheater in nearly a decade. There are two plausible explanations.

1. Cheating is not at all common.

2. Cheaters have low trust factor and you never see them if you don't have a low trust factor.

In either case I'm not very bothered. Don't put malware on my computer because some players haven't spent enough time in the game yet.

CFPB Review Panel Proposals Re: Data Brokers Rulemaking [pdf]
I didn't say anything about government, but it should be clear that the involvement of organization is inevitable. The industrialists ensured that by organizing the firm. To say that after that point we should just let the market decide is to say that only the industrialists are allowed to organize. This is folly.

It has been tried with different goals. Part of the problem is that we are not smart enough to design for the full complexity of society in a city and end up with cities that only partially work. Naturally evolved cities tend to handle that kind of complexity and flexibility better.

When InstallShield was founded in 1987 all companies were making their own installers.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/InstallShield

MSFT released MSI 1.0 in 1999.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Installer

Post 2008 or so, there was a very good question of why anyone would use anything other than *.msi on windows. But most Installshield users by then were building those packages with InstallShield by then.

These days, lightweight apps and dev tools are still preferred to use *.msi or *.exe based formats instead of windows store apps. Partly because it is quick and dirty to do so, and cheap using things like WIX and NSIS. But InstallShield still has a legacy base among less sophisticated users; it is easier than WIX and more robust than NSIS and the like.

Windows Store package formats are superior in most ways.

The advent of LED lights being so cheap to keep on I imagine some places just decide to leave them in all night.

"The support contracts are often disappointing too, like you are paying $200,000+ a year for the stupid thing and they won't even fix your problems? "That product is not our current area of focus". So frustrating.
"

Isn't the next part of this where the vendor receives an angry letter that contains the words "notice of default" and "filing suit to compel specific performance". If a vendor takes your money and says "JK we don't feel like doing that" and your contract let's them do that you need to fire you attorney (or who ever signed that contract)
Run it on a fixed model (Llama2, so repeatable) then create a big fat vector including “username embeddings” into a linear regression to score.

Looking at the paper and then these websites they don't look that aligned to me. The paper's images are much more saturated and cutesy (which to be clear i dont consider better).

Regardless, does it matter. I would assume you could chose any aethetic you like. The interesting bit is the training process not the aesthetic chosen.
The main difference here is that GPT4 is truly multimodal, and so the model itself understands images and doesn't require a preprocessor to tell it what's in the image. As you show, that's a viable approach – but it has limitations. Mainly, things get lost in translation.

It's like the difference between you telling me what's outside the window and then asking me questions about it – versus me being able to look out the window myself.
