> Indeed, the declaration (written by British crown subjects) makes it clear: “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights”.

Three problems:

1. The Declaration is not the law of the land, nor does it grant "constitutional protections."

2. None of the inalienable rights it lists are protection against warrantless wiretaps.

3. Some of the rights clearly don't apply to foreigners because the Constitution, which is the law of the land, provides for warmaking.

> The constitution doesn’t grant the rights, it merely recognizes the existing ones... but you already know this.

The Constitution says how the government works. A society can decide to require court orders for surveillance or not. The US government requires them, while the British government does not.

> We have also learned, again and again, that it affects US citizens, too, in violation of the law. The IC doesn’t care that much beyond keeping up appearances that they comply with the law.

We've learned exactly the opposite from both recent leaks and from oversight reports. They try to follow the law closely.
FL Studio groups everything into patterns, and then the patterns are arranged to form a song. Traditional DAWS just place audio/MIDI data directly into the song, without abstracting those pieces away.

If you're making something like hip hop or EDM, where there's a lot of repetition, then this functionality in FL Studio can be helpful. But it also has a lot of weak areas compared to other DAWs.

Don't do a microbenchmark, test the entire application under expected usage with and without the LUT. If it's supposed to tolerate a DoS, test that as well. A LUT is a drop-in replacement; there's no need to rely on some synthetic benchmark that may not be representative when you can test on the real thing.
Wait, hold up, you're saying that the DoJ, which is definitely "some in government" (because congress is not government, it's just one part of the government, there are many more parts) don't use the law as their benchmark?

Because that would be literally the opposite of reality O_o

The question is around whether the DoJ can make things stick, and the DoJ doesn't waste its time, and doesn't burn its budget, on cases they know they can't make stick.
Having no swap was no panacea, because all of the code sections of your running programs that are memory-mapped in effectively count as "available" clean pages that can be evicted when memory is tight, and they'll cause thrashing just as much as swap would. The solution is to OOM-kill processes before that happens.
Any advice for trying to implement this in my project over at https://github.com/agi-merge/waggle-dance

Currently I am creating different agent types for planned subtasks using langchain, so perhaps implementing a custom AgentExecutor? Or would I need to lift it up higher in the logic stack? I am not sure that I understand how the graph search and thought-action-reflection selection process is deciding when and how to reflect if a branch fails, and how it backpropogates the failure to other nodes?
Ya, basically just a file you dump things at in incrementing indexes and a index file to quickly look up keys.

Your other comments are the kinds of thoughts I approach this with. I'm hoping for the final (simple fab) CPU @100MHz and at least a few MiB of RAM (I think about 1990's tech).

I did the pre-work in thinking about the CPU and hardware to convince myself of what features were needed. Eventually I'll get to building the CPU itself. I first want the OS it will target :)

Not exactly. Twitter / X has a mechanism in flagging this with community notes which hints at posts that show such false information even if it spreads or goes viral on the platform.

It would be a problem if there was no such mechanism that exists. So I hardly see how this is a problem given such content gets flagged by hundreds of thousands of Twitter / X users.

Not a big assumption at all. Gravity is believed to be a property of space as opposed to a property of matter. That is, a satellite orbiting around the Earth is really going in a straight line but space is curved.

Seen that way it’s just insane that any kind of matter could fall up. See

I'm 14months into my 6month break from work. Idk about pm, but as as an engineer it's been rough and stressful trying to get a job right now.

Is your printer an IoT device? Is your Echo an IoT device?

I'd say yes to both, and so the problem would persist.

One way to solve this would be to put every single device on a separate vlan (like some public networks do). Just like NAT, that approach certainly has its advantages for the average user from a security perspective, but forces centralization and usage of third-party servers where it shouldn't be required.

Maybe what we need is a "network administration protocol" that would give you pop-ups on your phone when devices tried to discover what's on your network.
Another option is to do this outside the browser using a forward proxy. The very reason that using Nitter becomes necessary is because of the annoynaces and hazards introduced by the browser that runs remote, obfuscated code (Javascript) automatically and indiscriminantly, and is controlled by an advertising-suported entity. Thus using an extension/add-on to this program as a "solution" is not something that occurs to me as a wise choice. The advertising-sponsored browser is itself part of the problem. Whereas the proxy is a much, much, much smaller program, not supported by advertising, that can be quickly and easily compiled, edited and re-compiled by the user.
I have to admit I missed a few hundred out of about 18k PDFs. I didn't keep track of which ones I archived on my initial pass, so I need to rerun the whole script which takes about a week with Web Archive's rate limit, so I've just been putting it off. I was also thinking people who visit them can click the "archive" button in cases it's not yet archived to crowdsource the effort, like you seem to have done.

I've reformatted 1GB files with a Vim macro in the past, weeks ago I processed 3-4GB JSON files, it's not that unusual nowadays if you work with a bit of data.

Though note that in many cases long lines are also important to consider - many editors struggle hard and become near unusable if the line on screen is e.g. 1MB long (which again isn't as uncommon as you'd think).
> USB-C has been out for years now and neither of these predictions have come to pass. Your comment aged poorly before you even finished writing it.

Number 1 absolutely has. I've been somewhat in the market for a tester that I can plug both ends of a USB-C cable into and see what voltage, speed, and other specs it supports since most of my cables have zero markings on them.
Usually this is called a "leave of absence" in which the employer grants unpaid time off, but the position is still reserved for the employee when they return. I have only seen a few employees request these in the past, though employers are probably open to other terms if they are willing to entertain this type of request in the first place
Defold, the engine by King that powers Candy Crush, is a solid free contender for 2D mobile games.
On the contrary, it's worse on systems with lots of memory, because those are the systems that are trying to do more.

About 8 years ago I got a work machine with 384GB of RAM, and I installed early_oom on it to make the OOM killer work a whole load earlier, otherwise the system would just become completely unresponsive for hours if one of my students/colleagues accidentally ran something that would make it run out of RAM.
Given the price of bits these days a single bit flag with 'non notable' would suffice and then they could keep these and allow people to see 'full' or 'just notable'. That should satisfy all parties. Of course there is then also the cost of the bits of the articles themselves but that too would be manageable.
Sales tax can't really exclude people based on ability to pay though. I've never heard of a means-tested sales tax, it's not practical. You can exclude basics, in the UK our VAT which is similar to a sales tax is not applied to most groceries, kids clothing, etc. It's easier to just have an income/property/land/inheritance tax, things that target wealth or income, vs things that target spending. Those with less money tend to spend a higher proportion of their money, so taxing spending targets them.

Nobody was defending anything. I just told that I don't remember having any issues with the Linux OOM killer, and guessed a potential reason.

I haven't really used any Windows version later than 2000 for anything except gaming, so I don't know how things work there these days. I mostly use macOS and Linux, and I've had far more trouble with pathological memory management behavior in macOS. Basically, macOS lets individual processes allocate and use far more memory than is physically available. When I'm running something with unpredictable memory requirements, I have to babysit the computer and kill the process manually if necessary, or the system may become slow and poorly responsive.

Anyone bitching about USB does not remember the horrors of serial ports. My favorite cables were the ones where the connector housing metal was so soft it was actually indeed possible to plug them in upside down and bend all your pins. Spent lots of time in the 90s with tweezers straightening pins.

All he had to do was make one side of the connector rounded. But still a vast improvement.

I can sleep 6~7 hours most nights and never wake up rested and energized. Usually I attribute this to getting older, but then once every couple months I wake up feeling like a young guy, full of energy... and can't really trace that back to diet or caffeine intake easily. Next thing I plan to try is some kind of optimism... I'm naturally a melancholic, a pessimist, like always thinking about the worst case kind of person and wonder how much all that worry (health, kids, savings, job...) affects the sleep.
That is a great solution. I found that I can go to http://IPAddress/net/net/sntp.html and disable SNTP. I also scrambled the Primary SNTP Server Address, and put the synchronization interval to as high as it would go; 100 hours.

Additionally, the switch is a hop, skip, and a jump away from being the same hardware as a Tegra Shield that the L4T images initially targeted. Like even down to the same exact model of DRAM chips which should have been more of a commodity and a reflection of the manufacturer's vendor relationships.

It's as close to an officially supported Linux distro for Nintendo hardware as we've ever gotten.

That's why Linux does keep a certain amount of RAM actually-free, so that it can hand over some pages immediately. If the amount of actually-free RAM goes below a certain amount, then it will pre-emptively evict a load of cache pages.

Yep, I've got USB-C cables that only operate at USB 2.0 speeds, drives me nuts. Though USB-A suffered from this same issue, even once we got USB 3.0 it was hard to tell what speeds it supported (3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.2 gen 2).

The thing is, you can still buy a metal can opener and they really don't cost a ton of money either. You can still produce stuff cheaply en masse with metal parts. I have some wood and bamboo kitchen implements, again about as cheap as the plastic equivalents. Its just probably a few cents cheaper to use plastic that is probably good profit when you are moving thousands of units, all else be damned.
I'm so grateful to John Riccitiello, without his pricing changes, not as many indie devs would have jumped on Godot.
DIY-ing or learning how to build a southbridge is like the most obvious & great use for an FPGA, but of course the whole mid-range of FPGAs has been AWOL for most of a decade now & has unusable closed software systems.

AMD is talking about how they are going to catch up with CUDA & make a "moat-less" competition in GPUs, but ideally they'd be singing the same tune for FPGAs and trying to make good open ecosystem tools. Vivado is AMD's CUDA, for hardware. Also their entry point is quite high: 16nm Artix UltraScale+ starts at $200, the AU10P with 96k cells. You have to get to the Kinetix line to get >1 embedded PCIe controller. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Xilinx/XCAU10P-1FFVB676...

Anyhow, fun seeing the whole right side of their dev board loaded with power configuration. That, I guess, is how you migrate from manufacturer provided PMIC to DIY.

> You are incredibly confused about terminology here.

Perhaps, but I doubt it.

> You have a balance. And then you let Autopay pay it off in full by the due date, which is after the balance appears on your statement and after the balance is reported to credit bureaus. You still don't carry a balance.

I don't use Autopay. I pay my card off (usually in full every month) when I review the online statement. If I review my statement early and I know that I have upcoming charges then I'll pre-pay to avoid interest charges. Some months end up with effectively a zero balance for the month.

> What you are describing (having zero balance reported) is called cycling the credit limit.

No, I am absolutely not. Cycling your credit is where you charge close to your credit limit, then pay it off, and repeat that several times in a single cycle. Cycling your credit once might mean that you had some big expenses. Doing it repeatedly (eg several months in a row) means that something about you is suspicious and warrants an account review. Maybe you lied about your income, or need a credit limit increase, or you're gaming some rewards system, or you're using a personal account for business, or something that's even more unusual.

>As a foreigner, it may make sense to short the Egyptian pound versus a stronger currency like the USD and potentially get rich in the same way George Soros did.

Who are you going to borrow egyptian pounds from to pull this off? The egyptian central bank certainly won't do it, and any third party is going to charge you the black market rate (ie. the true market rate), which wipes out any profits you might make.

>Usually when there’s a currency arbitrage opportunity, locals will circularly exploit the currency arbitrage (potentially by exchanging pounds with an Egyptian bank for 10% more USD or perhaps another way)

Usually you can't pull that off because the central bank won't sell foreign currency to just anyone. You have to have a valid reason, or be well connected.
Not at scale. Currently we do some extraction for metadata, but pretty simple. Doing LLM based pre-processing of each chunk like this can be quite expensive especially with billions of them. Summarizing each document before ingestion could cost thousands of dollars when you have billions.

We have been experimenting with semantic chunking (https://www.neum.ai/post/contextually-splitting-documents) and semantic selectors (https://www.neum.ai/post/semantic-selectors-for-structured-d...) but from a scale perspective. For example, if we have 1 millions docs, but we know they are generally similar in format / template, then we can bypass having to use an LLM to analyze them one by one and simply help create scripts to extract the right info.

We think there are clever approaches like this that can help improve RAG while still being scalable.
And consider that the Space Shuttle was used extensively late in its life to help build the ISS. We have nothing similar to help build another one. I'm sure there's good reasons to do it (hopefully not just budgetary ones), but it's unfortunate that we're deorbiting it at all. The cost of maintaining/upgrading the one we already have probably pales in comparison to the cost of ever building another one.

That does make sense for now.

Surely though we’re going to see a fairly exponential increase in these requirements though?

The cheaper the compute gets/scales the more sense it makes to hammer problems with more agents/tries so scale of needed agent memory also goes up.

I made a few small contributions to this a long time ago. Nice to see that the website is still up!

Probably the most interesting feature of this project was how it handled memory. The DS only has 4mb of ram. And there is no MMU, so swap isn't an option. But the gameboy cartridge port has 32mb of address space mapped to the bus. And there are homebrew/piracy cartridges that fill that space with 32mb of ram. Which is great, except that the DS can only write to the cartridge port on 16-bit aligned addresses. And almost all software will assume that 8-bit aligned writes will work. To make use of the expansion memory the developers ended up creating a patched GCC that would convert any writes to unaligned locations to an appropriate read, 16-bit write, and set of shift operations.
