Not sure why they're being so circumspect here: it's gay-bi men. STIs have skyrocketed in the gay community because condom use has gone way down, a fact that probably also contributed to the recent monkeypox scare.

Having grown up while the AIDS epidemic was in full swing, this seems like madness to me. I've always considered myself supportive of the LGBT community, but if someone is into being sexually promiscuous then the risks of contracting a disease are just higher, and one owes it to oneself and one's partners to minimize that risk. I do not understand the mentality of preferring retroactive use of a pill over prophylaxis.

In 2015, gold was approximately $1250 per oz.

Perhaps someone who has a gold Rolex can correct me, but it seems unlikely that there is more than 3/4 lb (362 grams) of gold in it, even counting the band. That would probably be very tiring to wear.

This would be similar to spam and blocklists. I know people have tried to sue blocklists (maps and spamhaus) but from memory they were not successful in the end. That included blocking email , sometimes with larger blocks with ip ranges not directly involved but in a similar range. Malware being flagged on an anti virus would be similar but in those case the user has an option to exclude the block. Google and Firefox block domains for phishing regularly as well.
Having a more organized system, where people can apply and receive residency and the chance for citizenship if they prove various skills and income and housing abilities, seems very reasonable to me. And then the illegal immigrants get deported immediately. This sounds very possible to me, and far more fair to legal immigrants.

Not every problem can be solved by throwing money at it.

The US spends more per student than essentially every other country in the world (besides the few statistical anomalies like Luxembourg), and most of the areas with poor-performing schools are funded at an equivalent level to nearby schools that are high-performing, thanks to large state and Federal subsidies to make up for lower local taxes.
The way math education has evolved is the same way software development has evolved. Infinite naïve abstraction and checklist-ification that obscures the necessarily complexly defined cognitive work essential to real improvement. I think it would improve in either case that more time was dedicated for respectively teachers and engineers to set their own agendas rather than such being under control by managers/institutional hires.
Huggingface has a strategic partnership with AWS.

1. AWS is far behind Azure and GCP in AI, so they gotta partner up to gain credibility.

2. Huggingface probably does face insane bills compared to github. But AWS can probably develop some optimizations to save bandwidth costs. There's 100% some sort of generalized differential storage method being developed for AI models.
For better or worse the rewind CEO seems to have a huge chip on his shoulder, that's probably good for the company near term, but it is funny and could cause strategic missteps if he thinks they need to "win" on too many fronts. He muted Avi's response on his announcement then went to multiple threads Avi was in and posted his product (mockup) as a response. Just the other day he went from publicly sharing his deck and talking about how open he is because they build so well or something to complaining about copycats.

I think that they are fighting a battle on too many fronts for a very new company, and getting into hardware tends to be a death knell, so we'll see if it matters. I'm just hoping Mac can basically do what they do but built in to the OS without requiring a 3rd party, seems doable.

They're also the same company that touts privacy so much that people don't realize their queries and context for those queries go to openai.

It's the best we have for large scale comparison I think. But the major problem is that the tests are public and you can easily cheat by including them in your training set and increase your score an arbitrary amount. You might even be able to do it in a way that would be difficult to detect. And it can happen by accident as well. There are already many cases of intentional and disclosed contamination in the leaderboard.

What's really needed is a leaderboard based on some private test sets, where you can submit a model to be judged and some entity will run it on their own machines without disclosing the tests to you. Even that could be vulnerable to cheating if the submission process is automated and you can submit many times, as you could use the score as feedback to disclose information about the contents of the private test set. So it would take some care to run such a service, even beyond normal security concerns like securing the sandbox that submitted code runs in, etc.

Very rarely actually and I don't have kids. I live in a small city and bicycles are the better mode vehicle for daily transportation. There are many reasons for someone to have a car: travel, heat waves, kids, etc. But the number 1 reason is because it is a symbol of status.

People will buy a car because otherwise they would be a low status male and they want to f#. Note that cars are expensive, I live in a poor country with absurd interest rates, so many are making debts that they will need a decade to get rid of, if ever, just so they can constitute a family.

Here at least car culture is squeezing the middle class into indebtedness and poverty and overcrowding the streets with cars and idiots, not a causal relation but a dangerous combination. Cars are great tools but f# car culture.
Whoops, my apologies. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Hello! Yes, when compared to Mixamo, our pipeline is not procedural nor static. We built an end-to-end ML pipeline that analyses the mesh/texture you upload and generate unique rigs and animations for your 3D model.

Different from Mixamo, we support all kinds of 3D object categories (animals, insects, vehicles, humanoids, etc) while Mixamo only provides a static gallery of already animated humanoids.

> This deserves a separate discussion. I doubt many English speakers (let alone those who don't live in a particular anglophone country) care to distinguish between English dialects. To us presence of a huge number of these (don't forget en-AU, en-TT, en-ZW etc - there are more!) in the options lists brings only annoyance, especially when one chooses some non-US one and this opens another can of worms.

I definitely do. The biggest difference, as everyone else, has pointed out is the US vs UK spellings.

Realistically, though, beyond that country is a poor indicator for everything else. I want to use DD/MM/YYYY date format in English, but DD.MM.YYYY date format in German. I want to use $1,000 in English, but 1.000 $ in German. This isn't dependent on the country I live in, this is dependant on a combination of a country and language - that could be the country I'm living in, or the country I grew up in (mostly US date format vs not), and it's either the language I'm actively typing in, or the language of the document I'm reading, or the language I'm thinking in (but a computer can't exactly handle that).

Trying to guess the correct combination is tricky, especially if a document is in two languages (e.g., a quotation), and users are lazy and won't switch their IME unless they have to.

What this means in slightly more practical terms is that setting a single "locale" for my device doesn't make sense, but rather I should be able to choose a locale per language (or possibly spelling preferences by language and formatting options by language as separate choices). I'd then pick a language to use the device in, and it would use that languages locale, and tell apps that this language is the preferred language. If an app doesn't provide my preferred language, pull the preferred locale from settings for a language it does support, otherwise use the default set by developers. For some apps, it's a bit more complex, particularly if I'm creating content. GMail or Office would be two good examples, where the UI language might be in English, but the emails or documents are in German, or a combination of German and English.

Even then, I'm sure there are people who need something even more flexible than that.

At the moment, if I set my language to English but my Country to Germany on my iPhone, for example, things occasionally get confused. My UK banking app, for example, pulled the decimal separator from my locale settings for a while and then refused to work because "£9,79" (or whatever it was) isn't a valid amount of money, and I couldn't see a way to fix that without switching my Country in the phone settings. I imagine they fixed it by ignoring my configured locale and always using en-GB, thus defeating the whole point of a locale in the first place.

So yeah, these days it's fairly common to not have a single "locale" that you work in - it's quite possible to want to use two or more but nothing is really set up to handle that well.
that's interesting, because for the small amount of exposure I have had to common core math that has been pushed federally was actually the opposite. it seems to eschew the simpler methods to "just get the right answer" in favor of more long-hand methods that help with understanding of the concepts.

Maybe this raises the floor of math education? The majority of US high school graduates are not rated as proficient in math and a small minority are actually ready for college level math. That's been true for a very long time now.

It appears that there's a belief among educators (or whoever comes up with the curriculum decisions), that it's better for society to raise the floor than the ceiling on math. Given how poorly math education outcomes have been for a long time now, I'm all for them trying something new (it would be insane to continue to do what clearly hasn't been working for a long time now). That said, I'm pretty conflicted on it meaning that more gifted students lose out on access to learning anything more than the floor level. I don't understand why they need to make that tradeoff at the expense of those who have above average mathematical aptitudes during their school years.

You would think so, but when I brought the information pamphlet to my GP (who does blood work in office and took 2 vials for other tests at the same visit) and told her I am happy to pay the $1k out of pocket, she took a couple of weeks to research it, but couldn't find a way to prescribe it in the hospital system. Since it is a prestigious research hospital, she even found clinical trials ongoing and tried to get me included but I was too young for any of their subject groups.

2 years later, I still haven't found a way to take this test and have it's results be meaningful to any actionable health outcomes.

I believe the only thing I can do is find a sketchy online doctor willing to prescribe it, and then roll the dice on whether any related testing or care based upon the results would be covered by insurance (my doctors biggest concern)
