Breaking DRM to rip physical media isn't legal in basically any mainstream country in the world (since membership of the WTO requires you to pass an anti-circumvention law).

Heck, in major nations (like the UK) ripping unencrypted media isn't legal.
The most fundamental proposition of Haskell was essentially the research question, "how lazy can we make a programming language?", it's the standout feature, so that'd seem kind of weird.

It must depend on the person, how memories weigh. I watched a man who was basically my adoptive grandfather go through chemo and die of cancer in a hospital bed set up in our living room, but the memories of all our beach and forest excursions are much more prominent to me now, and its a bittersweet memory to me to think of the old westerns we watched (his favorite genre) when he was stuck in bed.

I guess I would try to figure out, based on the people around me, how I could make them happiest long term (which I think is the same thing you're saying)

Italian and New York hospitals were overwhelmed because a) both places put sick elderly into old age homes. (42% of US COVID19 deaths in 2020 occurred in old age homes!) b) Like elsewhere early on, doctors put everyone serious onto ventilators in a mistaken belief that they should treat patients like they do ARDS cases based on blood oxygen levels. This damaged healthy lung sacs and caused long-term dependence on mechanical respiration that doctors found almost impossible to wean patients from, and other side effects like deep vein thrombosis; Nick Cordero is an example. (This article from April 2020 <https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/08/doctors-say-ventilators-...> was completely vindicated in retrospect.) Neither happened after the first few months.

And no, none of those field hospitals built in parking lots and stadiums everywhere were used, either. In Wales, for example, Millennium Stadium was converted into a temporary field hospital with 300 beds and capacity to expand to 2000 beds. It was such a big deal that a public contest was held to name it Dragon's Heart Hospital <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon%27s_Heart_Hospital>. However, said hospital never had more than 46 patients at one time, and was closed in six weeks for lack of use!

Even in NYC, which really did see overloaded hospitals briefly in March-April 2020, USNS Comfort treated a total of 179 patients. USNS Mercy treated a total of 77 patients in LA.
> It doesn't really matter how dense you make housing in highly desirable areas, there'll always be more people who want to live there than houses available.

A land area with a 40 mile radius and the population density of Manhattan would contain the entire population of the United States.

The only way to do this is to build more housing. You can't fix it with mass transit because the existing housing is low density and mass transit requires high density.
I watched my grandpa die of cancer, not being able to eat for few weeks among other worse things and think it's a bit weird to think of it as something you'd put others through.

Yes it's difficult to support someone in their last days, and it's never pretty, but it's not their fault. It also didn't make forget all the other years I had with my grandpa.

Hello,
I am a french software engineer with 3 years of experience and I am looking for opportunities to work in a fast-growing tech environment. The two things that make me proud of my job are delivering products of great quality and overcoming technical challenges. I love to interact with users to understand their requests and deliver the functionalities they need even when it sounds difficult. I am willing to relocate to Amsterdam.
Not a word about the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, of course. When two criminals fall out with each other after a joint robbery and murder, one ordinarily does not overly mourn the one whom the other shoots in a dispute over the spoils, nor do we call the one shot a hero for surviving the attack and turning on the shooter.

Hopefully, one of the good things that will come out of the Russia-Ukraine War is the eternal shattering of the "Ha ha smug Americans, everyone knows that it's the Soviets that beat the Nazis" notion that this article is based on. Setting aside the total complicity of the Soviets in helping the Germans to dismember Poland in 1939 and attack themselves in 1941, without massive American and British aid Moscow would have fallen in 1941 and the Soviets would have sued for peace in 1942.

As an aside, I wonder how we as a community can force the hands of these 'utility companies' (MS, Google et al) in the coming years. I'm just repeating our common woes of course, but...

Here I feel we could insist on a compromise somehow, 'Automated bans must be reviewed and responded to within 1 business day by a human, with no templated responses allowed. A clear path to account reinstatement must be provided'.

We can't vote with our wallets, it wouldn't move the needle.
We can't act maliciously or illegally.
We could possibly raise awareness on mass and organise petitions (I'm sceptical).
We could use our networks to pester individuals.
We could shame specific people (I notice such a disconnect in some faang employees. E.g. Facebook employees seem blind to Myanmar interference).

The irony of how much power we ostensibly have at our fingertips, contrasted with how little power we have in practice.

Currently, we rely on the teeth of the EU. And nothing else significant occurs from my pov, the troubles just worsen.

The global custom shoes market is expected to reach USD 2.3 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period. Custom shoes are footwear that is designed and manufactured to meet the specific needs and preferences of the wearer. They can be made from a variety of materials, including leather, suede, canvas, and synthetic materials. Custom shoes can be tailored to fit any foot size and shape, and they can be decorated with a variety of colors, patterns, and designs.
As I told the anesthesiologist shortly before one of my many general anesthesia experiences:
The only way I'm going to know whether I died in this room is when I wake up. There is no difference between anesthesia and death.
I suspect the opposite since winner-take-all-dynamics are partly driven by gatekeeping. A famous scientist (like Francesca Gino) gains a following _because_ she is anointed by journals and institutions, which causes positive reinforcement via better jobs / grants / book opportunities etc. If top journals reject a researcher, they languish until they get lucky or the value of their work becomes unquestionable (like Katalin Karikó).

In my utopia, publication success would be driven by interest within a field which means lesser known researchers who haven't had breaks in high impact journals are more likely to break through, because the community acts as the gatekeepers, not a small group of journal editors.
Average person still needs someone with the camera around. Clicks, flash, posing are all part of the ceremony. Besides, you have to choose the time and angle, arrange people for a good shot, and so on. AI makes your post processing easier and results more impressive if you want. But just AI is soulless fake. Also, you can add a small drone to your toolset or cooperate with a pilot. This way you can take shots and videos which were impossible before.
It seems to me the course of Western civilization has thoroughly disproved Reich's theories. For decades now, as society has become more sexually liberal, neurosis and depression have been growing.

Hi there, I'm a Software Engineer with 2+ years of experience with a can-do approach to life and I'm looking for opportunities to grow further. I went through a whole lot (professionally) for the past two years, a way from my first internship up to being a team leader and trying to guide others. As I was growing more and more I understood that I need a change of environment to optimize this process, mainly because I feel like I need to work with people that are a lot more experienced than me.
Well, I thought it was fun.

Hi! I'm Rishabh, I'm a Master of Data Science student at UC Irvine. I'm looking to intern Summer 2024 with a team of data scientists, ML engineers, data engineers, or really any bunch that's data-focused and full of ICs. I'm used to wearing many hats, all the way from data collection/QA, to statistical model development, to software engineering/model deployment in prod.
I had the same experience. Eventually I started writing jailbreak tweaks myself and that's what really got me into programming.
Thanks, this looks quite promising! As noted in other threads, both a version for the plain NEON instructions would be good (and the intermediate extensions, rdm, dotprod, i8mm etc), and also SVE2 instructions.

Edit: Oh, I see this does have SVE2 as well - that's great!

The ARM ARM is quite heavy to browse; for baseline NEON, I've used the "ARMv8 Instruction Set Overview" [1] which comes in a a neat 115 pages, which is great for easy browsing and finding what's available. But for anything newer than the baseline, one pretty much has to refer to the ARM ARM right now.

[1] It used to be available from ARM themselves, but I can't seem to find it these days. I've found one copy online at https://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/spr19/cos217/re... though.
Election tampering was an application, not the science. You cannot tamper successfully in an election without having a good understanding the electorate. And if you have that good an understanding of the electorate, you could put it to all kinds of other uses.

Well, as a rule, you don't come to the academia for money. I am a software engineer who now works as a researcher in the university for 3x less salary, because I just can't stand bigtech anymore (and probably unfit for corporate life in general).

Another thing is that software engineers are extremely highly paid only in United States, and even there perhaps only in a few highly concentrated places. Everywhere else the difference is not that dramatic (and not everyone in the world with the skills can move to Bay Area).

Hard to believe that "Loss of consortium" is really still a thing in 2023.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_of_consortium

Loss of consortium arising from personal injuries was recognized under the English common law. In 1349, the Statute of Labourers made legal provision to prevent servants changing employers, and to prevent prospective employers enticing servants away from other employers. Common law developed on the basis of this statute, such that the law extended from covering servants to covering family members. Since some family relationships were seen as analogous to property relationships (e.g. fathers owned their children and husbands owned their wives), harm done to family members could be seen as deprivation of benefits to the family member with legal control over them.
You started with

> I've got friends, relatives, and acquaintances all over the country and of all age groups, and I don't know a single person who would even remotely qualify. That's at least a hundred people.

that basis is what I objected to. I never made a claim to the actual numbers. There I'd tentatively agree with you, in that I'd suspect, that it is less than 10% of the population that goes to church on a weekly basis. But that's a "if you force me to pick" statement not something that I'd put high stakes in. Especially since the link that you reacted to is for data from 2008 to 2017. And... back in 2008 I'd not be surprised _at all_ if >10% would have gone to church weekly.. And yes we can quibble about whether missing church a couple of weeks per year should still allow yourself to count as "goes to church weekly" and whatever.
I really don't care about the particular number. I care (or really was triggered momentarily and hit the reply button ;)) about your assertion that the 10% number _must_ be wrong, _because_ you yourself don't know "a single person that _remotely_ qualifies". (which given your place of origin I also doubt, but whatever)

What you are talking about is possible to do in regular SQL dbs with extensions. However, when it comes to scaling traditional DBs don't have the necessary tools to do so automatically. Most extensions provide support for an underlying ANN algorithm it implements and there's that and nothing more. Everything else you'll have to hand roll yourself.

Clustering, load balancing, aggregating queries etc are quite different for a vector database in comparison to traditional OLTP databases.

It's the same as difference between OLAP vs OLTP. Both have different underlying architectural differences which make it incompatible for both to run in an integrated fashion.

For instance, in a traditional DB the index is maintained and rebuilt alongside data storage and for scaling you can separate it into read/write nodes. The write nodes typically only focus on building indexes while the read nodes for querying eventually consistent indexes (eventual consistency is achieved by broadcasting only the changed rows rather than sending entire index).

Now it's similar in vector dbs too. You can seperate the indexer from query nodes (which access eventually consistent index). However, the load is way higher than a regular db as the index is humongous/takes a long time to build and sharing the index with query nodes is also more time consuming and resource/network intensive, as you won't be sharing few rows but the entire index itself. It requires a totally different strategy to get all query nodes to be eventually consistent.

The only advantage of traditional DBs also implementing vector extensions is familiarity for the end user. If you are already familiar with postgres you wouldn't want to leave your comfort zone. However, scaling a traditional DB is different from scaling a vector DB and you'll encounter those pain points only in production and will be forced to switch to proper vector databases anyways.

> First of all, it's come from no one's pockets until you sell. Until then it's just a hypothetical, theoretical gain on paper.

It comes from their pockets when they pay rent. Meanwhile you, as a property owner, receive thousands of dollars a month in imputed rent by owning a place to live.

You also have the ability to spend the money without selling the property by borrowing against the equity, as many people do.

> Second of all, when you do sell it, the money will come from the pockets of your willing buyer

People "willingly" subscribe to Comcast. Not because they prefer doing business with Comcast or believe themselves to be getting a fair deal.

The people celebrating the increase in housing costs because they own housing should feel bad about it. Especially the ones who caused it by lobbying for zoning restrictions.

> But that's why we created the universal land value tax and used it to replace all other taxes! (Hello from the year 2078!)

This doesn't actually fix housing shortages created by restrictive zoning -- which you could conceivably still have with a land value tax and a government that keeps the restrictive zoning to maximize land values and therefore tax revenue. (Land is worth a lot more if you need it proportionally to build housing instead of just buying one piece of land to build an arbitrarily large amount of housing by building an arbitrarily tall building.)
