Got an unrelated question: Why do we need to decompress the files?
How did you come up with any of these numbers?

For example, how did you determine that he’d get about half of a 20 year sentence? Particularly given federal crimes require a minimum of 85% time served.

Is this just your feelings disguised as fact or is backed by anything concrete?
First, best work =/= more work. There are middling returns but you will do more work with more time, at least if you are in execution mode.

Second, creatives have to consider the long term as well. Burnout and writer's block are real phenomenon.

Lastly, yes. Some people are just built different. Maybe you min max exercise and diet and can operate longer than an equally skilled peer. Maybe you have less family responsibilities and truly enjoy your work. These factors tend to target the average, not the top.
Uh, so why would I choose to own that?
Sent! It’s growing a lot in the last few days, so there are some bugs… but it’s like old Twitter, kinda.
This would be basically impossible for Amazon to implement without painting a giant target on their back. The FTC would easily consider this deceptive/unfair pricing unless Amazon clearly discloses to the customer how the quoted prices are determined.
This is looking at effects, not causes.

Addiction is made worse by social and economic stresses. So is anti-social behaviour.

If you want to fix addiction and personal violence, start by removing systemic political and economic violence and assembling a reliable social contract.

Start modelling and dramatising pro-social behaviours in the media - which can be done in a gritty and relatable way, not a saccharine and patronising way.

This won't end addiction, violence, and mental illness, but it will make these problems less prevalent and easier to target and manage.
I'm sorry this happened to you but why on earth did you take on so much risk?
I have the same feeling. There are fewer events and lower turn out across the board
You seem to get downvoted but this is true, I've only ever had a trial sub once, after which it's been pure pirating. I have a friend who is very wealthy by most standards, he's still too cheap to get a subscription and instead just pirates...

> Historically only the winners are adopted. Look at the AES competition

Often, yes. But also consider the SHA-3 competition.

BLAKE2 seems more widely used than what was chosen for SHA-3 (Keccak). What was submitted for the SHA-3 competition was BLAKE1 (it didn't have a number back then but I think this is clearer) so it's not like NIST said that Keccak is better than BLAKE2, they only said it's better than BLAKE1 (per their requirements, which are unlikely to align with your requirements because of the heavy weighing of speed-in-hardware), but still this is an example of a widely used algorithm that is not standardized.

> how often do you see Serpent being mentioned, despite it having a larger security margin than Rijndael

The goal of an encryption algorithm is not only to be secure. Sure, that has to be a given: nobody is going to use a broken algorithm when given a choice. But when you have two secure options, the more efficient one is the one to choose. You could use a 32k RSA key just to be sure, or a 4k RSA key which (to the best of my knowledge) everyone considers safe until quantum. (After quantum, you need something like a 1TB key, as djb humorously proposed.)

Wikipedia article on Serpent: "The 32 rounds mean that Serpent has a higher security margin than Rijndael; however, Rijndael with 10 rounds is faster and easier to implement for small blocks."

I don't know that nobody talks about Serpent solely because it was not chosen as winner. It may just be that Rijndael with 256-bit keys is universally considered secure and is more efficient at doing its job.
Novavax approved as Covid 19 booster- how do choose?
Hi, having feature parity with cuPy is a daunting task, especially for a C++ library. At this point we feel we have a good foundation for all kinds of basic and advanced tensor manipulations, and have a growing number of library-based functions on top of that. The low-hanging fruit was wrapping the CUDA math libraries, so that has the most progress.

Since MatX was originally intended for streaming/real-time processing the focus has been on making C++ for CUDA easier to use for those kinds of applications.

There are also a lot of things in cuPy and sciPy that don't make a lot of sense to do on the GPU, like offline tasks such as filter design in signal processing.

Also, since C++ users typically are writing in that language for maximum performance, we've put a large focus on making sure we are as close to writing optimized CUDA as possible. In general, most workloads we've tested are about 3-4x faster than the cuPy counterpart due to better fusion and language overhead.

We have discussed supporting cusparse as well, but cusparse typically requires a different input type like a CSR matrix. This is not something you'd typically want to detect/convert, so we're still discussing ways of getting this integrated cleanly.

We do have several versions of SVD, including one that calls cuSolver.

Feedback is always appreciated!
Sorry to hear that. If it's for the role in my link or another product eng role let me know and I can have someone look in to it for you. If not the recruiter you're talking to is likely your best bet.
This reminds me: some years ago, someone noticed that some translation engine, maybe Google's (vague enough for you?) advertised a whole lot of obscure languages but didn't work all that well for some of them: if you translated from English to whatever and back, you'd get mostly gibberish with a lot of oddly Biblical turns of phrase embedded in it.

I got to thinking about that, and I came up with a theory: Machine translation of course requires a corpus of texts that exist in at least two languages, a Rosetta Stone. The Bible is the most translated book on Earth. For tiny or dying languages, the kind with some thousands of speakers at most, the Bible may be the only written work that's ever been translated into or out of that language. So the Bible is their entire training corpus, and it's not enough.
Meetup's problem is that charging the people organising free events is a poor business to be in. Even if they're better than facebook, are they better by enough to be worth paying for?

The headline made me think either Erowid or The Hive until I read a bit more and Erowid made more sense. I had forgotten how much I missed reading through and contributing to Erowid many years ago.
Should we be even spending our resources here? 2279 firearm homicides for this group. Diabetes seems like a better place to spend our energy and resources.

283,000 children and adolescents younger than age 20 years—or 35 per 10,000 US youths—had diagnosed diabetes. This includes 244,000 with type 1 diabetes.

Like everything, 20% of the population are responsible for 80% of the crime.

That's true in the US, that's true in Europe, Asia, etc. That's even true in healthcare, where 20% of the people make up 80% of the spend.

There are people who just don't obey the law and/or excel at making bad decisions.

They don't need to "predict" that they'll commit a crime, they just need to predict "when."

I’m expecting them to give me $25k tax free to devote space in my home for the purpose of working during my work hours. I retain ownership of the property itself, but not the equipment; I would also reserve the right to use the space as I please outside of work hours, because it’s located in my home.

Those are my WFH terms. Companies can take those or provide me an office.
Technically the origins of the Gnostic demiurge as a concept comes remarkably close to the modern trend of AI.

A lot of the imagery was inspired by the Orphic Phanes, a dual gendered being of creation and light that gestated in the cosmic egg of the universe.

There were groups that combined the idea of an eventual creator with naturalism such that you had the idea of an original dual gendered primordial 'man' which then brought forth a 'son of man' that ended up creating us in the images of that original.

They allegedly patterned this on the Phrygian mysteries of a spontaneous original being that was likened to a tumor springing into existence.

They even tied this all into concepts around the dependence of the soul on the body, suggesting an original physical world and a non-physical replica created by the demiurge where death was functionally escapable.

The later influence of Neoplatonism flips it all back to a perfect form original and corrupted physical incarnation - the version of Gnosticism most well known today.

But for a tiny slice of time in antiquity you had people talking about the ideas of a naturally occurring man in a physical world giving rise to a creator of light which then recreated the physical original man in a non-physical twin of the cosmos in order to effectively allow them to escape death.

Which is a pretty wild set of beliefs for the time, but less so in an age where we are moving towards humanity bringing forth AI literally in light (optoelectronics is a likely next hardware shift), creating digital twins of the world around us, and increasingly making that world inhospitable to our continued existence.

Some of the nuances of what they were thinking about are pretty wild to consider in modern contexts.

However I would note actually many people have chosen to do exactly this and our abundance sustains them sufficiently. But the enshitification of literally reality itself makes it impossible for most people to see beyond the human hamster wheels we’ve built for ourselves.
Tangential, but people interested in trying psychedelics should read about HPPD: Hallucinogen-(Induced) Persisting Perception Disorder. It is a potentially debilitating and long-lasting side effect of using hallucinogenic drugs which can cause changes to your vision, or depersonalisation/derealisation disorder at the extreme end. It may increase your side effects from using psychiatric medications in the future.

It is often caused by using LSD for the first time. Drug mixing makes it more likely to happen.

Personally, I'm avoiding psychedelics so that I don't get it. [Edit] The downvoters are shameless and reckless, and potentially responsible for ruining lives. Stop acting like a cult.
Compared to cable? Worth every cent. They can go up to $50 for their basic plan and still come out winning in my opinion. The only real obstacle is prime and others keeping a lower price. I predict other platforms will slowly raise their prices too and then Netflix will keep jacking it up.

No ads! Binge any time, as much as you want, any content they have! People still pay hundreds of dollars to xfinity, dish and directtv. I wouldn't be too shocked if netflix merged or got bought out by someone else.
Did you only read about that? Or experienced some of the things described there?

Let me try to articulate how I think about that.

It's just another means and description of the phenomenon known as awakening the Kundalini Chakra by way of meditation, tantric massage, or whatever.

What this does, if applied successfully, is elevating you to another level of existence, and giving you glimpses of even higer levels of existence, in similar gravity to what is often told here about various psychedelic drugs.

I think similar things could be said of that part of Satanism, if it wouldn't be abused to degrade and harm other people so much.

There are levels of orgasm/sexual energy/orgasmic potency/however you want to call this, which will meld your 'field/aura/spirit/mind' with your partner and vice versa, giving you the most intense intimacy imaginable.

Insert: While being melded together, what happens 'down there' as seen from above in some sort of out-of-body experience (Yes. I really mean that.) is almost unimportant, like some far echo from below. Happening automatically, maybe interupted by some synchronous 'Oh, that must have been good? Again!', giggling detached, and surfing the waves up there, whereever that is.
/endinsert

But that is not all.

They can also give you slightly superhuman abilities regarding physical fitness.

For a time.

Then there are things which can only be called supernatural, like precognition for example. For other people there may be different supernatural phenomena.

I write this, because I experienced this only once in this full intensity in the summer of 1988, giving me insight to several overlapping timelines, and their probabilities, showing me events up to the summer of 2023.

And now I'm blind. S..T! Well, not really, there are more, but rather discrete, not continous and vague, clustered around somewhere 2045 to 2050, and personal, not telling much about world events, or science & technology. And they 'feel' censored, because everything is looking normal, but I can't get one look at the sky. Isn't that strange?

Anyways, too much personal stuff. What I want to say and repeat is that things can happen during sex between 'initiated/like-minded/loving/trusting' partners, which simply aren't possible with just sex, especially under the constraints of stress due to safer sex practices, hormonal imbalance, fear, physical unfitness, and the general pressure most people seem to feel.

It's really hard to describe, the same way psychonauts can't describe their rides on a heroes dose, or something. One can try, but it can only be a pale shadow of the real experience.

Edit: I realize that this could be interpreted as rambling "Good sex is good!", but that is not what I mean. It's just that there are different levels, and I'm thinking most of you haven't experienced them. So even if you are satisfied, you can't know what you have missed, so far.

>Raising prices then checking if so-called "competitors" follow is the illegal part - that's automated collusion, definitively illegal.

This is completely false.

Collusion, legally, requires an agreement between competitors. Tacit collusion is *not* illegal, see Brooke Grp. Ltd. v. Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp. (1993).

Amazon can raise and lower their prices all day, algorithmically or not, as long as they aren't calling up their competitors and telling them to raise their prices too.
Latin is tricky though. Google translate is notoriously bad at latin grammar, much worse than most living languages.

Not exactly sure why, maybe small corpus, maybe because it's a pro-drop language without fixed word order and an very complex set of conjugation rules.

I finally ditched my cable bundle (internet, TV, voice which I never used) from Spectrum to just internet. Bill went from $300 to $100.

This was while always having Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Max, and Apple+.

Slashing that $200 feels incredible.
Because the NSA has equally well funded adversaries that would love to find a back door to the NIST standards the whole of the US government uses. Even if the highest levels of the military and government use secret squirrel super cryptography the rest is using NIST standards. It's all the boring parts of government that deposits paychecks and runs the badge readers to their offices.

People would take the CPUs out of other devices and use them. A consumer grade router has most of the hardware you need to make a general purpose computer.
NB: A centrifugal artificial-gravity environment need not be a ring. It could be a tethered object spinning around a centre of mass, consisting either of two opposed habitable pods or a single pod and a counterweight.

A sufficiently large pod would have an arc-of-circle structure, and multiple independent pods might be arranged in a spoke-like pattern.

Given tensile strengths of various cables, this should be generally attainable. Dynamic effects within a tensile-cable structure could however be problematic: shimmies, twists, or other movements, particularly if they are somehow amplified with time.
> I can't for the life of me understand why anyone thinks the CEO is more likely to act in the best interest of employees or society than the shareholders are.

Probably because shareholders can just care about money in the immediate term and don't need to actually care about any one company or its long term success. They may never know or even interact with the employees of that company on any meaningful level, and may have investments in several other companies including direct competitors so that if any one company tanks they'll still have other investments making them money hand over fist.

A CEO, particularly when they're a founder, might actually care about the company doing well and may personally know the people working for the company. They might care a lot more about the employees they work closely with on a daily basis as opposed to a shareholder who just watches numbers go up and down while deciding when best to sell. The CEO's day to day will change drastically if their company fails. A shareholder whose company does poorly just adjusts what they buys/sell the same as any other day.

> I must admit I'm having trouble relating to the strong desire to have a phone that's more repairable than an iPhone.

It's about control. You're fine being in a walled garden and letting the company handle every aspect of the device for you.

Others don't like being locked in and appreciate the freedom to fix or change things on their own.

Hi, besides an (subjectively) easier syntax, the performance should be higher compared to libtorch. Every operator expression (think of it as an arithmetic expression) is evaluated at compile-time and is often fused into a single GPU kernel. This also removes the need for JITing. If there's a specific workflow you're curious about comparing libtorch vs MatX please let us know and we can try it out.

The massive wealth inequality has a role to play. People are willing to accept people having more money than them but 10 people owning 50% of the wealth while the rest are literally suffering through multiple jobs and still live paycheck to paycheck, that’s when people think of revolting. What we’re seeing now is the initial stages of a soft revolution where ideas are introduced to the larger public and reactions are gauged. Things aren’t bad enough for an actual revolution but these are the first signs of the growing discontent.

hahaha, read this comment before viewing the article, saw the URL is a Fox News domain .. burst out laughing. It basically _was_ written for two-year-olds!

Seriously though, the writing is shockingly poor, informal, and reads as if it's some kind of Dr. Seuss book. "And when the clerks inside try to stop it - they can’t." "if they see a big backup at a pump, or someone hanging around a little too long, they’ll call cops to check it out." .. It's like it was run through one of those scripts that changes all words to be within the top 100-200 most commonly-used words in the language.

Also, "Some gas station owners are falling victim to a sophisticated scam. " .. It's not a scam. No one is being scammed.
