I agree, and disappointed, that we don't really know how different gravity levels affect human body. We could make experiments of that kind on a space station - free-flying if needed - but chose not to up to now. We'll have to wait for something like a private station to test that.

Maybe Moon is quite enough. Maybe Mars is not enough. We don't really know, and we'd better find out.
Instead of banning cashless businesses because it's discriminatory to the unbanked perhaps they should focus on reducing discrimination in the banking sector and providing a publicly run electronic payment system.
i was in there for two hours. no problem falling asleep at all.
Ridiculous.

Why not also then force cash only businesses into taking card and mobile payments also?
Yes there are citrus groves in Georgia. I don't think it's that they hadn't previously been able to so much as the agricultural dynamics makes it more reasonable now. It may be short lived though as the solar farms seem to be the fastest growing land usage now.

> I'm wondering whether a Mac Mini M2 Pro or a Mac Studio with M2 Max would still pale in comparison to a Windows based box with an NVIDIA GPU.

Mostly it will. The one advantage a M2 MAX has is with really large LLM inference with llama.cpp, as you have to compromise quality severely to fit 70B in 24GB of RAM.... but do anything else, especially finetuning, and you want desktop GPUs with as much VRAM as you can get.

That's Axios for you. I'm sure it appeals to some people.
For me it makes it harder to read. I think it's because my skimming muscles are so tuned to both bold and first-sentence text that when presented such a stark opportunity, I naturally try to jump from one bold title to the next. But the bolded "titles" contain no substantive information, so I have to fight that urge, which means I can't skim at all, even though my attention reeeeally wants to jump.
Yes 100%. This is definitely planned.

My thinking with delaying it was this the following:

- Launch with only private channels and get a decent sized user base recording content.

- Once the app has a decent size of active users allow public channels/ episodes. Then their will be people who will record & post daily.

BUT I'm learning that most people would rather consume content than create it - which makes sense so I need to come up with a better way or partnership to get creators to create the public content.

My biggest "fear" is having a public feed that rarely is updated because no one is posting haha.
Kagi, a paid search engine.

I accepted paying for it after the trial because every other search engine just sucks or isn't customizable enough in comparison. Not to mention ads and tracking.

Kagi results are really, really great. I find it better than Google for technical queries and better than DuckDuckGo for localized queries. Unfortunately, it's not 100% SEO-trash proof, but I can permanently block those domains from results in one click - a refreshing experience. The AI quick answer is on par with Bing's (more accurate than Google's), but the best feature is the possibility of banning/re-ranking websites (such as those SEO-spam ones).

This feature is probably the one any family member will find useful: prioritising websites they like the most and blocking/down-ranking those they dislike. For example, I hate Pinterest and have banned it. My girlfriend, on the other hand, loves it and gave a better ranking. Guess that's what customisation is for...

The lenses are probably also family-worthy, since you can quickly create personalised results pages for good sources for homework research, safe online games for children, trustworthy news for your grandma, etc. But I've never used it extensively yet.

There's also some minor features (auto-login link for anonymous tabs, bangs, news, etc) that you pretty much expect from a search engine nowadays, too. IMO, the most complete and efficient search engine I've used so far.
I'm in a (paid) Discord server that notifies people when Amazon / etc. prices hit a certain discount from the mean. I got a 65' 4K HDR TV for $300, when the list price was $3000. I always assumed these were marketplace sellers fudging a number when updating a listing, but we experienced some of these "death spirals" another comment was talking about in real time. Walmart was notorious for price matching other sites and you'd be able to get some electronics for a steal for a weekend before an employee caught it. The typical fulfillment rate was around 50%, with most orders being refunded within 24 hours.
The lack of free will should mean punishment is more appropriate, because then a person's actions are a product of their nature and nurture. And punishment tips the scales of nurture toward "don't do that again."

In that position, the government would inevitably try to meddle. Look up Operation Choke Point back in the Obama years, when the government pressured banks to cut off a variety of "undesirable" businesses, such as payday lenders, gun dealers, and so on.

Cash serves an important purpose. It is a safety valve in case of such extrajudicial overreach. Yeah, because it's private, it also enables some bad stuff (tax dodging, drug trade), but the same can be said about not requiring ID verification to use the internet.
Why not both? I would hope the government could do two things at once. There's no reason the post office couldn't also function as a basic bank, the same way it does in many other countries, while eliminating a discriminatory business practice.
There is a humanity aspect to things. Sure maybe if you make the crime 10 years in prison the infraction rates will go way down, but also you are using the state to enact very harsh sentences on vulnerable people, which is inhumane, and moreover you are spending loads of money locking people up to solve a crime which arguably is harmless. You could as an alternative build supportive/subsidized housing so that the people sleeping on benches can get a real bed, and provide medical and mental health services and job training. In this case instead of spending all your money on buildings to house these people which take away their rights (prisons) you spend the money on supportive services which help the people get on their feet.

You are still spending money, but one solves the root problem and the other solves only one specific crime.

Wherever you have hyper ambitious people, there will be a decent amount of them that are amoral. I'd argue most people (average or not) given a chance to do a nebulous wrong thing will do it.
I have no dog in this fight as I rarely deal with cash and do not run a retail business. However from a conceptual point of view I really have a viscerally negative reaction to not accepting cash. It is a societal acceptance of the rent seeking behavior of the credit processing networks. I already have to pay a sales tax to ${TAX_ENTITIES.length} different government entities, I don't love that I also have a 3% tax going to VISA/Mastercard/Amex/...
Probably because the state has limited ability to compel business relationships, thank God, and taking card effectively means enforcing a business relationship with a duopoly.

Every culture has positive and negative aspects.

Several positive aspects of US culture belong to non conservative areas: NYC, Hollywood, NASA, Silicon Valley, etc. Culture is not just ancient low tech practice.

American culture is so globally ubiquitous we don’t even recognize it when we do it.

E.g, despite animosity between China/US, Chinese citizens are fond of US culture (and vice-versa):

Pulsifer v. United States, a case that turns on a federal law’s use of “and”
Card payments are done through a middleman (Visa, MasterCard) and therefore require a surcharge that's going to a private company. They charge much more than it actually costs them, even including chargebacks etc, which is how they're able to offer things like credit card rewards. In my opinion it was justifiable back when it was new and not heavily used, but now that the economy revolves around it it's just parasitism, and governments should either cap their fees like the EU does, or, if they want a cashless society, provide their own EFTPOS system that doesn't charge fees to do business.
Just curious, for Amazon specifically does this service capture price changes that don't appear on https://camelcamelcamel.com?

I tried Kagi for the free trial and I do not share your enthusiasm or positive experiences.

I really wanted it to be great, but for the things I search (I am searching mostly extremely technical, and domain specific things), I found myself doing the same search on Google by prefixing !g, and Google nailed it so much more a lot of times. So much so that I didn't even finish the free trial, but went back to Google as my default in the browser.

Maybe I'll give it another go in a few months, but for now it's not for me.
I agree that the state should do more to alleviate the situation of being unbanked, but this is a major win for the unbanked that will offer immediate relief and comes with a number of other benefits for all different kinds of stakeholders.

I'm replying again to you as I can't edit my previous reply. I forgot to mention that the iteration count in the linked site is set by default to only 200. That's the number of iterations of the formula (for the mandelbrot it's z=z*2+c where z and c are complex) is calculated to determine whether a given value of c (coordinate on the complex plane) diverges or not (the mandelbrot is the set of all values of c where it doesn't diverge. z starts at 0).

Thus you can increase the iteration count, but again more calculations.

All other things equal, more zoom leads to more precision and more iterations.

Yes a postal savings system would be a way to provide a government run electronic payments system.

The point is that there are many benefits for businesses to not accepting cash payments, especially if they're maintaining the service for a decreasing portion of their customers.

Also, if customers had access to a government run cashless payment system (the same privilege that private banks enjoy) then they might find themselves less interested in carrying cash in the first place.

It's a great question. But note that Google Translate is also trained on "predict the missing token": https://blog.research.google/2022/05/24-new-languages-google... / https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.03983 (search the blog post around “Surprisingly, this simple procedure produces high quality zero-shot translations.”)

This was in May 2022, as part of Google Translate adding support for several low-resource languages (including Sanskrit). I was already very surprised that simply training on predicting tokens does translation so well — then a few months later ChatGPT came out, trained (roughly) the same way and doing a lot of things besides translation.

This is great in principle but in practice cars will just drive straight at you even when you are crossing on a walk signal.

> If police don't want to make drug busts in wealthy neighborhoods, they don't need models to justify that.

They may not need models to justify it, but that doesn't mean that it wouldn't be helpful for them to avoid accountability. I obviously can't say for sure whether or not the police are actively trying to avoid policing any given wealthy area, but it doesn't seem like a stretch that if that was a goal, then obfuscating the source of that decision would be helpful, even if it might not be required.

> There is no jurisdiction in America where discretion has been ceded to statistical models.

That's not at all what I said. My point is that someone who wants to influence _perception_ of where decisions were coming from could make use of ML to make their decisions seem to be the result of "objective" data rather than personal bias.

The “force merge” process in an Elastic vector index took as long as 18 hours in one test. That’s a lot longer than a few hops across the network.

This is not even a dig at Elastic. The problem is deeper than that… It’s an issue with the underlying vector index they (and many others) chose to bolt on, HNSW, which was not designed with frequent live updates in mind.

Most of them (see above) are massively under-researched and many available substances are not at all pure, so there is always a non-trivial danger associated.
> "democratically" is absolutely meaningless in this context

No, it isn't. When a law / regulation / policy is made all stakeholders are consulted and their views sought on it. Consumers are one of the stakeholders in context of what we are talking about. Politicians than work out a compromise that balances everyone's concerns. That's basically democracy at work.
