Y'all need to hold onto this for fighting combustion generation in your area, both coal and natural gas and colocation of industrial land uses, like distribution centers. Think PM2.5 from diesel emissions. Air pollution kills: strokes, heart attacks, asthma, etc.
I have a P6P and the general brightness is awful. My old P5 is brighter, which I still own.

The Android 14 I just installed on the P6P massively improved the dark light performance of the camera though. Not tried it on the P5

That said it's not worth me upgrading - I'll wait til the P9P.
Donna Strickland won the Physics prize for the first paper she published as a grad student. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0030401885...)

She was an associate professor when she got it, because she'd never bothered to apply for full professor.

(I remember one of my CS professors proudly declaring he'd become a full professor in class once; I looked him up recently and he'd moved to be a director at Google Cloud, so I guess it's not that great in the end.)
Those would be the overload sets
The first step in any legal fight would be to root cause it to determine liability.

Arguably the best people to figure that out are those intimately familiar with the design of the vehicle - like those who designed and built it in the first place.

And true there some pressure to "sweep it under the rug" - but that's what government safety agencies are for. And they'll probably ask the designers to help figure out what happened anyway, but they (should) have the power to counter that pressure and provide oversight. I suspect the first step of any retained lawyer would be to report it to that exact agency.

This wouldn't end up being some personal lawsuit about an issue where "Don't speak to your opponent at all" is often good advice, as the courts are simply not equipped to make a ruling on such a thing. This isn't some disagreement on some contract interpretation, but a material statement of "Is this design unsafe according to the law". So those agencies that define that will need to be involved anyway, and end up taking point on any legal process too, and the process would likely look very different to "Making your personal argument in front of a jury" that some people seem to think is the end result of any such process.

Most countries have mandated reporting of safety issues already for exactly this purpose, and again they should have the teeth to enact heavy penalties if their rules are found to have been circumvented. They would look extremely poorly on any attempt by the company to strongarm the one who reported a safety issue into dropping it.
I'm guessing this is tuned for software engineering roles?

I'm an elementary school teacher, and the bot basically made fun of the fact that I have to deal with children all day. Like... yes... that's why I became an elementary school teacher.
There are a lot more full-time DINK households these days (in my own circle of family/acquaintances, at least a third of them would qualify, despite them all being 40+), and they're often competing against households with kids that might have at best 1.5 incomes for not just housing but any number of goods (cars, appliances etc.). As soon as there are supply constraints of any sort (and there's been a number recently) it's going to drive prices up to the detriment of households with smaller total incomes, making the "choice" to remain a single-income household not a very realistic/attractive one.
It certainly can't hurt, and you'll probably learn a lot while doing so :)
And the (Android) phone from five years ago won't be getting OS or security updates. Granted, your current phone that needs the new battery probably isn't getting them either. In which case, why not just pay $80 to get the battery replaced in your current phone?

Null reference errors are examples of errors that can be caught before runtime by a static type system. The fact that static type systems like Java don't catch this is evidence that static vs. dynamic is not a binary - some static type systems are better than others.
> That means that sellers can't offer their goods more cheaply than they do on Amazon – even if it costs them (lots) less to sell in Target or direct from their websites.

Is there a way to get around this by having the list price higher than Amazon but run specials for most weeks of the year that undercut Amazon? Could that only be a viable strategy if Target is the final merchant but not on the manufacturer's website?
Not much from what I’ve seen. Even the Green party in the UK is reluctant to admit that we can’t solve this without behaviour change.

They were forced to redouble on MIPS because Itanium was so late anyway. And even after Itanium came out making products around it took a while.

And I'm not saying not reacting to Itanium means go all in on your existing ISA and your existing business model. That wasn't my argument.

My argument was don't go all out on everything that currently makes you money and your costumers expect for a totally unproven architecture that even if it works out means that you are just gone be a commodity provider with commodity software. Something totally outside of the whole history of Silicon graphics.

Oooh. I clicked through your PCB there. I would highly recommend you read a couple books on circuit design. You have a 2 layer PCB with no ground plane and you aren't routing ground, signals passing parallel with each other on adjacent layers, you have mixed analog and digital domain, massively long traces where they could be shortened with a small jumpers.

Worst offender is you aren't using a ground plane or routing a return path. You might be under the impression that your signal travels on the copper you routed for the signal - it does not. It travels mostly in a magnetic field between your copper signal and the closest signal of largest difference. Which in your case is only sometimes going to be your ground trace.

Short version... I would not use this as any sort of example for RF performance, at all anywhere, ever, and I'm being a nice as possible on that. I bet if you made a quick loop with an oscilloscope it would off the charts in reality. This would never pass FCC background.

EDIT: I see this was 7 years ago, but I would not use that as an example. At a very minimum if you are still making circuits... Watch every Phil's Lab video from 1 to 100. But somewhere in 50s is a good one on stack ups and signal returns.

EDIT2: While I'm picking you apart, which you implictitly asked for, your board is HUGE. So who cares how large L1 and C12 are? On that note, I could almost not find L1 at all, the schematic is a bit of a mess. KiCad is great and now allows for global and bussed component blocks I would recommend. Again, there is a Phil's lab video on that.
"The positive thing is recognizing how much more is being accomplished."

Is it? Are you spending more time with your loved ones? Have more time to enjoy nature? Spend more time on hobbies? Get out of bed later, take more time for breakfast, have fewer or shorter working days?

Compared to people a century ago, the answer is probably "yes!". Tech has made most people's lives more comfortable.

But compared to say, 20..30y ago? Maybe. Much recent progress has been funneled into producing an ever-increasing stream of movies, gadgets, kitchen appliances, bigger cars & houses, nicer clothes, roads, shopping malls, etc, etc.

Do we need those things to be happy? No. Do they make our lives easier? Sometimes. But also more complex to manage at the same time.

Capitalism's marketing machine has become extremely good at selling us things. In many cases, things we really don't need, don't improve our lives, perhaps not even wanted.

So a lot of that "accomplished more" is producing things of questionable utility. While under-estimating what we lose in exchange.

But hey: profit! (well... for some people)
The idea that copyright in its existing form will survive into the AI era is troubling. There is this expectation that the future will somehow be this knowable extension of the past, but with thinking computers.

Recently, and in the spirit of this farce (and the law) the US copyright office laughably declared that copyright can only be given to something that is substantively attributed when its creation involves a human.

The reason this is dumb is simple: we are creating digital intelligences that will evolve consciousness at some point. Sentience in the machine.

AI is not close to being sentient at the moment, and the closest thing we have to it now is the constant drone of anthropomorphic tendency in its reviewers, but it will eventually get there, probably in the next few decades (but remember how far off our current AI systems were predicted to be just in 2018).

The social values will change at that time and they will change mightily. Social values and ultimately the legal system that supports it. Part of that prediction is in the fact that our existing legal system will be profoundly disrupted by AI, which is already at expert level when it’s not hallucinating (of course, to be fair, I’ve met some attorneys who might reliably have that in common with modern AI).

I know it’s some asmovian futurism but we have clearly turned the corner in this direction, and the existing system, which desperately seeks to reinforce itself, is doomed.
I am biased, as I've had every pro/xl but the Pixel6 and the google nexus phone's prior to that.

With that being said i've only had questionable build quality on 2 occasions. The Huawei 6p which was covered under a recall, and the Panda Pixel 2XL where there was some lamination issues.

That being said, the build quality and materials (mostly) really stepped up initially in the Pixel 4, and then noticeably again in the P7. They are quite nice. I don't really find them lacking in quality, fit, or finish these days.
Nor, perhaps, to the same audiences.
I wonder if that can be accounted for by the fact that the software of today is more taxing than it was four years ago. You're probably using more battery charge every day today than you were four years ago to do the same things. That increases wear on the battery and will reduce its lifetime.
Every code out there on the real world is full of baindaids and duct tape. Yet, the actual amount varies a lot, as does the centrality of the patched things.
Making the contact is easy (the interference you hear doesn't exist at the receiver), hearing the other end is hard. Most of my indoor QSOs are people running 1500W FT8 which is ... an unnecessary amount of power. (Meanwhile, I'm sitting here transmitting at 3W.)

I often look at the automated reports and look sadly at the 99% of stations that can hear me but that I can't hear.

The basic problem here is that people prefer to hear positive news.

"It's a hoax" is a lot more palatable than "It's a serious problem that requires major action to be taken." Denying the problem is much easier and they'll do some substantial mental gymnastics to avoid having to take the hard path.
As others have correctly pointed out, to make a vector search or recommendation application requires a lot more than similarity alone. We have seen the HNSW become commoditised and the real value lies elsewhere. Just because a database has vector functionality doesn’t mean it will actually service anything beyond “hello world” type semantic search applications. IMHO these have questionable value, much like the simple Q and A RAG applications that have proliferated. The elephant in the room with these systems is that if you are relying on machine learning models to produce the vectors you are going to need to invest heavily in the ML components of the system. Domain specific models are a must if you want to be a serious contender to an existing search system and all the usual considerations still apply regarding frequent retraining and monitoring of the models. Currently this is left as an exercise to the reader - and a very large one at that. We (https://github.com/marqo-ai/marqo, I am a co-founder) are investing heavily into making the ML production worthy and continuous learning from feedback of the models as part of the system. Lots of other things to think about in how you represent documents with multiple vectors, multimodality, late interactions, the interplay between embedding quality and HNSW graph quality (i.e. recall) and much more.
Right, and that's part of what I was getting at.

Though you might also consider that landing from the ISS, in low-Earth orbit, takes at least hours presently. This Dragon X capsule landing initiated at 11:05 GMT on 3 September 2023, and was scheduled to splash down at 04:17 GMT on the 4th, over 17 hours later.

With transporters, script writers can bounce characters between locations in seconds.

Regarding the FX challenges: It's common to re-use stock or standard footage for such segments, which already occurs with many spaceflight sequences in Star Trek and related series. With the ability to swap in different backgrounds (using mattes or rear projection in the pre-CGI era) this gains more flexibility. Establishing shots are the equivalent for contemporary or historical terrestrially-based plots, programmes, series, etc.

Viewing television productions with an eye to scene, set, and location cost helps one realise why so many scenes are shot in low-rent locations: car parks, warehouses, docks, drainage canals, desert, etc. (Also typically proximate to major film studio locations as with Hollywood or elsewhere.)
If there is a life after death, then why would you care about the world? Wouldn't it make more sense to care for the one world that exists?

And on a less hypothetical note, I'll point out that in the US at least, the Republican party is both the party of Christianity and global warming denial, so it seems like those two go together just fine.
We're specifically talking about the kinds of people who will spend $700+ on a new phone. Those people can surely afford $89 to replace the battery a couple years down the line.

One part of PPL training is soft/rough field takeoffs. Usually you go through the motions on a paved runway but maybe you're flying off a grass runway. Anyhow, use flaps to increase lift, apply back pressure to reduce the load on the nose wheel, rotate early, and use ground effect to accelerate. Maybe they'll stick bigger tires on it or use a JATO rocket to help with the acceleration.
Pretty sure 'CrayLink' was actually developed by SGI and just branded 'Cray'.
> If you break off Costco's chicken selling business from the rest of the store,

It sure seems like that, but in the real world we do have many counter-examples where a singular company does do the loss leader thing for a long while, going into the red year after year. Often, it's never clear why or how they could think this was a winning business model.

The chicken-selling business might do the same, and their justifications for doing that might never be sound, they might not even be the reasons why they're doing it, but just some post hoc rationalization to themselves and the real reason is poorly understood by all involved.

If the rest of Costco sees this happening, are they going to step in and sabotage the chicken-sellers? Lord knows it drives some traffic to their stores (they might be unwilling to study that and write reports, as it could then be used against them if the FTC comes after them again, but they'd still notice). If they can subtly act to somehow ease the pressure, or make that worthwhile to the chicken-sellers without leaving a paper trail, they'd be fools not to do it right?

Of course, without exotic economic principles, that can't last forever. But unless you're claiming that there are business units for AWS are deep into loss-leading, your analogy only applies very generally and it's difficult to see how they could fall into similar snags.
That would definitely help. An art shop I use has modern versions of them in their gravel lot. They're made for large wheels such as those of ground vehicles and possibly aircraft, but not so nice for smaller wheels such as for a bicycle or scooter.

Incidentally, my grandfather was a radio and cryptographic technician who was primarily forward deployed to such minimally-prepared, temporary fields while graders were still leveling the ground.
Coincidentally, yesterday I had a chat with a friend that told me this very same case as yours.

- to replicate the whole layout of existing theme from scratch
- produce the exact functional behavior of previous theme
- on finish, he will simply going to get rid of the unnecessary plugins

It can be a bit intimidating, but if you know what you are doing, it will be worth the effort.
I'm actually not entirely convinced I do produce useful/robust software faster now than I did 10 or 20 years ago, mainly because the problem domains seem to have become a lot more complex. But I assume for any given set of requirements (including the exact platform(s) it would run on) I'd be able to write the necessary code faster now than I could in the past.
For real. Openly bragging about exploiting security flaws to scrape out data en-masse, which undoubtedly put massive strain on back-end systems, is a far cry from what is considered legal (politely scraping public information).
>I think I don’t understand what you are trying to say. Yes, FLOPs per token is the number we care about. Adding ~10x FLOPs and saying “look it’s better” seems odd.

You don't have to use 10. That's just what they found optimal for a particular benchmark. For others it was lower.

>What’s worse, memory use is quadratic in sequence length so adding 10x tokens is just not very smart.

Everyone uses flash attention these days. Memory is no longer quadratic in scaling.
> the practice of having very high prices that are steeply discounted for most customers is often an artifact of having the US government as one of your customers

That's one of the main cases of sticker shock in the healthcare industrial complex. Price a cancer treatment that would still be profitable at $10k/month at $125k/mo and offer sweetheart discounts to insurance companies (and treat self-pay patients as charity case writeoffs).
Perhaps, only because the sky is blue we perceive blue as blue. If the sky were red we would perhaps perceive all red like we do blue.

Our perception of the important colors (sky blue, ocean blue, vegetation green, …) probably evolved along with our physical needs.

You can have multiple sections of the same course. At the university I went to, there were about ~150 CS students per year. The very largest classes were 50 students each, with 3 sections of the same course, sometimes taught by the same professor, sometimes taught by different professors. As you progressed through the program, the number of "every CS major takes this course" courses reduced, and most classes were 20-something students.
