I honestly find it absurd that we have a perfectly good solution for gaming in the form of online streaming services like geforce now, but they somehow just haven't gained much adoption. Games not being available for a platform should be a thing of the past already.
Nobody knows everything in this field and anybody telling you otherwise is full of it!
Which `ls`?
Don't blame developers Apple clearly never gave a shit about supporting a gaming friendly ecosystem. It's their way or the highway.
No, I don't think that detail makes it any easier. I know that but I still really can't accept the correctness of the Monty Hall strategy (I have to basically just take it on faith and stop trying to understand it). I was trying to put my finger on why, and I think it's this.

After Monty eliminates one of the three doors, then the prize is behind one of the two. If someone were to come in this point, with no prior knowledge whatsoever, their chance of picking the correct door at random is 1/2. And that is still true even if they pick the door which our contestant is being asked whether or not to switch from! This is a real mind fuck to try to accept, that the same state of what's behind each door leads to different odds of making a correct random choice, depending on when you make the choice.

I honestly don't think I'll ever be able to "get" the Monty Hall strategy. I think I get why it works (choosing to switch means you're going from a 1/3 probability to 1/2), but it makes no sense at all. It seems like even if you choose to stay on the same door, your probability is 1/2 (the same as if Joe came in off the street and chose the same door as you). Like I said, I just have to take it on faith.
Maybe they're under a different name, but I don't see any Xiaomi phones on the REL, so I'd guess the ‘secret spat’ is lack of RF certification.
We could have prevented the replay/amplification dos attacks that use DNS by making DNS use TCP.

In practice though the only way to "fix" DNS that would've worked in the 80s would've probably been to require the request be padded to larger than the response...

But you didn't.

How?
The Canadian government “secret spat” doesn’t seem so secret. Xiaomi stuff is laced with various levels of spyware.

There’s also tech relations issues due to huawei shenanigans and back doors.
I don’t know how much stock I’d put in roads before the automobile was popularized, however the transcontinental railroad, the most impressive piece of transportation infrastructure in the world at the time, was built without Federal income taxes.
Considering how hard it is to actually fix any accidental damage to brain cells and nerves, and the far-reaching consequences of such damage, I am always amazed to see how many are eager to just plug something into it and let some arbitrary code send electric shocks through their brain.

I get the unfathomable potential of the thing, and the appeal of said potential. But that’s a product I won’t be an early-adopter of.
For the website or for the use of the botnet?
Half Life Alyx didn't support Linux on release and I had to play it via proton
Are you suggesting that we didn't need HTTP2? What's the real alternative here?
For some reason whenever I'm on my work's VPN, Apple Music lets me play 1 album and then the next time I try to start a song it will tell me I'm not logged in and I'll have to force quit and relaunch (frequently a few times) before it will let me play another album.

Apple Music is the only app that has this problem.
I understand the reasoning and am all for mitigating pollution. It may be frustrating for consumers when these systems have potential to decrease economy, performance, and reliability while increasing cost and maintenance.
Massive housing crisis means few people born after 1985 or so will ever afford a home. Add to that the ultra centralisation on Dublin and you have a recipe for a bad quality of life.

The darkness and the rain doesn’t help either.
Or the corollary: that there's really no such thing as anthropomorphic. There's inputs and outputs, and an observer's opinion on how well the outputs relate to the inputs. Thing producing the outputs, and the observer, can be human or not human. Same difference.

> That's just it – there isn't.

Well, the next time I find myself in a melee battle within a castle and am deciding whether I should fight my way up the stairs, I'm going to draw a distinction between: "Is absolutely false", and "We don't know whether it was true or false", and I'm going to let someone else go up the stairs first...
Another reminder that acronyms are pretty terrible for communication. Every time I onboard with a new org there’s a whole new set of acronyms to learn that’s barely faster than typing out the unabbreviated version. Nice to save a couple seconds when the cost is only a bunch of people not able to follow along when people are communicating.

To be clear: not ragging on OP in particular at all but more at the widespread practice at a company level.

I saw that and that comment unfortunately doesn’t add anything to what is already discussed in the thread I linked. It has comments from Mozilla people too.
Disagree - everything novel has been done already. Technology at its basic form is moving/transforming data. Too many engineers fall into the trap of chasing what's new.
iCloud is unfortunately impossible to adequately secure for that use case.

If you shoulder-surf somebody's phone unlock PIN and grab their phone, you have everything you need to take over their iCloud account, including their passkeys and the capability of locking out all of the victim's other trusted Apple devices and changing their iCloud password.

This was very surprising for me to witness first hand – fortunately not in the identity theft scenario, but only when observing a relative regaining access to their iCloud account using only their iPad they were logged in on.
Can anyone corroborate this anecdotally? I.e. has anyone actually looked at the output of the two models side-by-side for common tasks? There's lots of talks these days about academic benchmarks being pretty "broken" for modern LMs, and not really properly showcasing the differences between models. I wonder if that's the case here or if the model is genuinely better.
Lol just saw the creator I assume.
We're trying to advocate for greater flexibility in cross-component styling. One proposal is "open styleable shadow-roots" which would be an opt-in to let styles from above a component to apply to it's shadow root. I think this would help migration in situations where app teams are currently using global stylesheets.

Feedback and support of the need for something like this would help a lot: https://github.com/WICG/webcomponents/issues/909
Sounds like a lot of trouble when it would evidently have been enough to just wait a little more!
You mustn’t play CS if you think cloud gaming services are anywhere near suitable for this game. Milliseconds matter, and streaming your game sets a hard cap on how quickly you can respond; a cap much much higher than most players will tolerate.
Nothing to me, for the same reason you gave. I'd love to see them making a comeback.

My guess is they won't come back because modern connectors are so thin that if you made them equally narrow, they'd break/bend easily. (And yes, 3.5mm really is too thick to be a standard size, e.g. in wearables. The outer thickness of the USB-C socket is 3.3mm.)
> The government needs to provide urgent regulation to ensure that AI does not provide incorrect or damaging information and protect vulnerable people and the public.

Capital idea. The root problem here isn't unstable people acquiring killing weapons, or astonishingly inadequate mental healthcare! Don't expect that angle from...the founder of a mental health charity.

Is there a term for the embarrassingly large cohort of folks hellbent on forcing the state into everyone's personal lives to sand down every sharp corner? The opposite extremum seems to be the hardcore gun people. I disagree with them, but at least I understand them. The information/free thought antagonists I don't understand. I don't get their angle. And I don't believe their intentions are all conspiratorial.
I honestly don’t get this rationale though. Why is this different from Linux? It’s like blaming Linux users for using Linux and they should have used Windows instead if you really want to game.
Nothing in their comment claims that, there's no need to bring absurd strawmen into the discussion.
Seems like chain of thought.. except instead of giving the llm an explicit set of instructions and having the llm step through a series of problems, you give it a simple instruction and it hallucinates an analogous series of steps that are statistically relevant.

Could be interesting. Some of the best innovations in human history were basically highdeas cooked up in the shower by associating a hard problem with something else.

Are you the same user who got some flak for posting the abstract of a paper without quotations recently? Keep on truckin'.
Failing obviously and universally is better than failing subtly in edge cases

Sure when you have unlimited time and unlimited resources why accept anything that is even a hair's width not quite like what you intended—perfection?

Meanwhile we have Unicode with all its flaws. Sick!
I agree, we aren't "assuming they are highly correlated," as you said.

> The argument that piracy drives box office sales would surprise me

Me too! It would be interesting if it did however; I can imagine a case where a user of an unlicensed site learned about a movie there and wanted to see it on the big screen.

If you read the study they don't argue that however.
Yeah, I can see how that can end up messy, but filtering by url also doesn't always work. To give one example: I may open google docs in different containers because I have several accounts (personal and work). So, if I receive a link to a doc that was shared to me, and open it from the mail client... it won't necessarily end up in the right container. It can end up working fine when you use the menu to open in another container, but on many sites, the original url is redirected to a login page or whatever and opening in another container is not going to be helpful at all because you've now lost the original link you needed to open.

Shadow DOM is what enables interoperable composition. Without it you don't get <slot>s and without that you can't put children into a component without some very ad-hoc hacks.
Why? It's also disconnected at the device's socket until fully seated?
It is relevant to Apple customers that care about playing games and don't need to care Valve exists at all.
Apple: Understanding iPhone 12 and SAR testing in France
I'm personally not a fan, but still am hesitating to point out that Scheme was, in fact, chosen as the language for styling and transforming SGML (DSSSL, still available as OpenJade), and I believe also Brendan Eich's first choice, presumably because of the DSSSL precedent. But then supposedly his bosses told him it has to be more like Java, at least in name.

I'm not a big believer in syntax (and think LISPy language will always remain niche, which is part of its appeal), but one thing I'd imagine is that LISP/Scheme could've helped to prevent the syntax excess that is CSS, simply because there were already plausible styling examples for eg. classic stateful recto/verso print formatting, and LISP's homoiconicity would've make CSS syntax look kindof gross.

Actually faster here to dial the non-emergency. I once called 911 because a 7 year old child approached me at a gas station asking for money. I was put on hold. When I called the non-emergency I got through right away. The cherry on top was when I received a callback from 911 dispatch over an hour later to check if I was okay.
> AI hype is really problematic in Enterprise.

This only appears so because we here have some insight into the domain. But there have always been hype cycles. We just didn't notice them so readily.

The speed with which this happens makes me suspect there is a hidden "generic hype army" that was already in place, presumably hyping the last thing, and ready to jump on this thing.
safer for whom? My windows only rattle after the motorcycle has driven past, they don't project the noise ahead of you nearly as much as you think they do.
I'm don't know the specifics of how passkeys with Google work, but don't they usually require multiple synced devices?
Could ad blockers make $1000B annual profits?

Well, I already googled, now internet ads market WHOLE is about $300B, and predicted to become more than $1000B in 2027.

So they are not candidate to pay ALL capex for AI. Nearest time only possible 1/10th share at most. Who will pay other 9/10?
I keep waiting for the O’Reilly book “Agile: Managing Mediocrity”.
It's not my point, the significance is listed under Conclusions.
Imagine playing CS on an streaming service! People are chasing more FPS and better hardware to see their opponent a millisecond sooner, talking about tick and subtick impact on the game.

Playing single player games on a streaming service is fine, but competitive games? I don't think that's gonna get too much traction.
Right, who needs an SQL `join` when you can do all your `join`s in Ruby, JS, Python whatever? What? SQL?

We are at a point of craziness where people are accusing each other of being Nazis. The only constructive thing that can happen is to remove the public education system at this point because it generates mindless robots.
It is undemocratic for democratic governments to argue against encryption in any capacity. They are effectively using their citizens own money to weaken their security against unlawful search.
There can be harm, as piracy can theoretically reduce demand for the premium non-pirated products

Reduced demand leads to reduced income/revenue. If someone did some action that directly definitively reduced your income, bringing you from say 130k to 110k, that would 100% qualify as "harm or deprivation".
A fee for doing nothing? That is illegal.

I backup to a local drive using Time Machine and I use "normal" copy to backup to another local drive. Time Machine is more convenient when it works, which it usually does, but I have the regular backup in case it doesn't.

Outlier Weighed Layerwise Sparsity: A Missing Secret Sauce for Pruning LLMs
City council meetings are for this. They typically have a citizen comments section at the end of the meeting.

Where I live, these citizen comments are beloved by wingnuts who hate their neighbors and are trying to convince the city to harass them. So - you know - try not to come off as one of those.
Paper abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs), renowned for their remarkable performance across diverse domains, present a challenge due to their colossal model size when it comes to practical deployment. In response to this challenge, efforts have been directed toward the application of traditional network pruning techniques to LLMs, uncovering a massive number of parameters can be pruned in one-shot without hurting performance. Building upon insights gained from pre-LLM models, particularly BERT-level language models, prevailing LLM pruning strategies have consistently adhered to the practice of uniformly pruning all layers at equivalent sparsity levels, resulting in robust performance. However, this observation stands in contrast to the prevailing trends observed in the field of vision models, where non-uniform layerwise sparsity typically yields substantially improved results. To elucidate the underlying reasons for this disparity, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of the distribution of token features within LLMs. In doing so, we discover a strong correlation with the emergence of outliers, defined as features exhibiting significantly greater magnitudes compared to their counterparts in feature dimen- sions. Inspired by this finding, we introduce a novel LLM pruning methodology that incorporates a tailored set of non-uniform layerwise sparsity ratios specif- ically designed for LLM pruning, termed as Outlier Weighed Layerwise sparsity (OWL). The sparsity ratio of OWL is directly proportional to the outlier ratio observed within each layer, facilitating a more effective alignment between layer- wise weight sparsity and outlier ratios. Our empirical evaluation, conducted across the LLaMA-V1 family and OPT, spanning various benchmarks, demonstrates the distinct advantages offered by OWL over previous methods. For instance, our approach exhibits a remarkable performance gain, surpassing the state-of-the-art Wanda and SparseGPT by 61.22 and 6.80 perplexity at a high sparsity level of 70%, respectively. Codes are available at https://github.com/luuyin/OWL.
I found that I learned a lot when trying to write a logical decoding plugin. So I guess if you are a user of Postgres and there’s some small friction you could reduce by writing a plugin, it’s a good way to get started. Scratch your own itch, you don’t have to publish the results :-)
Where is the information on how you built it?
Famous last words of this Irish-American Astronaut

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Collins_(astronaut)
>Weather is regional. You could very easily have calm air in an entire region of the country for an extended period of time. Even if you had long-distance transmission, where do you get the capacity?

You use the gas or battery storage that you have created locally close to where you are. Since it's cheap even at small scale. People with solar panels and some modern EV's with V2G can already go 24/7 (for a day or so anyway).

I think you underestimate the power in small scale in large numbers. Solar power in Germany increased by the equivalent of one nuclear reactor in just one year. By comparison, the latest nuclear reactor built in Europe took 14 years.

It seems overwhelmingly likely that local battery storage will develop similarly, meaning that nations will get several TWh of storage from companies and individuals adding batteries to their homes and businesses. Modern EV's can power a home for at least 24 hours already.

>To actually do this you would have to massively overbuild generating capacity of the type opposite what that region is suited for,

Certainly not - every region has their own storage and can overprovision whatever makes the most sense where they are.

"You might get locked out of your account" is the updated version of the old "Your hard drive will crash."

It isn't a matter of if, it's just a matter of when. Backups and a thorough disaster recovery plan is absolutely mandatory for anyone who cares about their data. Some company is going to mess something up due to no fault of your own. It is inevitable.

Unfortunately, there aren't good disaster recovery options for some aspects of lost accounts, but having multiple accounts and avoiding single-points of failure help some.
1Password enabled PassKey support recently and I was "surprised" to learn that there is no way of exporting them out of 1Password. They're not included in the 1PUX format export, nor in the CSV.

That means that they're literally impossible to back up. If 1Password goes down, or the company stops operating, or anything else like that, your Passkeys are just... gone. Absolutely no way to recover them.
And it's a hassle to keep it in sync. If you decide to update your password you need to remember to print out a copy and store it in the safe, oh and throw out the old one.

I just glanced, they still want about 500 bucks for the 13" screen and half of that for the board to drive it. While I have no clue what making the screen at a low scale might cost, the board cannot possibly be five times more expensive than a Raspberry Pi, can it?
Indeed, the technical implementation doesn't matter for the context that it helps to strenghen Windows market position among game studios.
Moved on to PUBG and then Warzone which one may argue was a downgrade to PUBG, but I still stick with it for social gaming.
