Pokemon Red isn't a huge game if you have access to the state (not just pixels) and prune it properly. The RL algorithm used here is so sample inefficient that it's pretty much just a stupid search over the space. You can likely solve the game easier using traditional search algorithms. This shows how to use the wrong tool for the job. It would've been more interesting to use algorithms optimized for this kind of problem, not some off-the-shelf PPO that's just inappropriate.
I've made this, but I have also used burnt honey as an adjunct in making imperial stouts.

It adds a toasted marshmallow note that goes very well with the roasted barley flavour.

One thing interesting thing is that boiling and burning honey attracts bees; I took to doing so at night and still bees would get into the house. These were African honey bees so may be a species thing, as they have a different temperament than other honey bees.

I remember that one university in my previous home town cross-bred Italian and African honeybees in an attempt to make a more docile bee.
Pretty sure Elon Musk is on record as saying that people working from home are only pretending to work.

I commend the author's commitment to reducing co2 footprint, but also the planes continue to fly, regardless.

Unless this movement can reach a critical mass of equally conscientious souls, how will things change in the broader landscape? Humanity is.. complex.

The ford f150 was popular for conversion kits from multiple companies. One of the easiest platforms to convert, lots of room for batteries and engine swap. Google and you can find multiple companies offering a swap.

Also ford going to offer a conversion kits with Mach-E crate motors, but appears the supply shortage and rising prices put a pause on it.

40 months! Silly me, I've been on the ten year plan.

I just refreshed my hardware as my old gaming rig (top of the line at the time) couldn't run LLM engines or diffusers without overloading the power supply and shutting down in the middle of a run.

I switched to Linux in the process (no Win 11 for me). The only reason for not going Mac desktop is that Nvidia is still the king of the hill for ML workloads.
I agree with the trendline for PV prices in Wright's law (cumulative production) terms, and the idea that electricity storage has its own Wright's Law curve.

Handmer glosses over a few things, though. First Amdahl's law, and thus any estimate of how long it will take to get to his promised land. Ramping up panel prodution might as well be instantaneous, and ramping up stoage production nearly so. But those are not the only things that need to change. As I read it, I thought "yeah, by 2125 maybe", "yeah, by 2200 maybe", "yeah, by 2300 maybe", and so on.

Legislation, vested interests, culture and institutions take a long time to change. How long will it take Greenpeace to accept that pumping water into the headwwters of the Colorado is a good idea, for instance?

In the mean time there are going to be a host of other issues that could add friction. Fertility collapse, for one.

Variation in governance ability, motivation and incentives across countries and regions, and internally within countries is going to be another source of friction.

Secondly the historical decrease in energy intensity may be there not because of high energy prices, but because of exogenous changes. Moving up Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, in a way.

180 years ago the big items in household budgets were food, fuel, and to a lesser extent clothing. Today, the big items in household budgets are education, healthcare, security (insurances of various kinds; services which we think of as security services; and the component of taxes that pays for police and border control defense forces), and housing itself.

It is not obvious how reducing energy costs to near-zero makes these dramatically cheaper, so it is also not obvious that welfare would increase as much as Handmer claims. Somewhat cheaper in the case of housing, yes. The others, not so much.

The response function may be logarithmic or less. It's highly likely to be sublinear.
Years ago heard some airports used to use Powerpoint and DDE for flight info displays. Data was coming from ?? probably a mainframe. Haven't looked into it even though I have a use case similar to what fast-food outfits use to coordinate order assembly. Imagine it's not real-time. Might be reasonably fast.
> and force them to fire me, so I can collect unemployment

Good luck with that. If your employer directs you to show up at a location to work and you choose to not show up, you are intentionally subordinate and in all likelihood your employer will dispute your unemployment claim.
That's good to know, thanks.

My tinc usage was far less demanding. Just a handful of nodes and light traffic, so I didn't experience any issues.

Well, except for all the nonsense about ESP and the like. Stewart Brand and friends were ahead of the world in a lot of ways, such as realizing the need to reduce our ecological footprint and so on, but they were also unfortunately suckers for "paranormal" con-artists and other "New Age" nonsense that the 60s counterculture also was intrigued by.
Conspiracy theorists didn't know about any of those conspiracies beforehand, most if not all were revealed by mainstream media (or, in the case of MKUltra, by accidental declassification) and conspiracy theorists claimed credit for them after the fact.

Epstein is a particular howler because the QAnon set loudly proclaiming triumph about that was entirely focused on phantom satanic pedophile cults with the Democratic Party while Epstein was never even on their radar.

Yes, they just got lucky a bunch.

I typed my original comment on my phone and now I read it it seems a bit unclear what I was trying to say.

Yes recent case law says GPL can be a contract, I don't think there's any doubt about that. This fact flies in the face of FSF's assertions about GPL not being a contract. I wonder whether the reason provided in the article, i.e. "gentlemanly rapier of copyright—the elegant weapon of a more civilized age" is really the sole motivation why the FSF decided to stick to this now-proven-false narrative. It feels like there's more to the story than trying to be "gentleman" or an aversion against using the same mechanism as EULAs... (I think most FSF people generally aren't fond of software copyrights, just that they decided to fight copyright with copy"left"?)
I was responding to the parent comment. The parent comment was likely just making an observation in general, not necessarily about the NRLB complaint.

If that blind person has $2,200 to spend on two appliances, sure.

The Anova Precision Oven [0] is $700

The Control Freak [1] is $1,500

It's a ton of money to spend on what are essentially gadgets. But, then again, if you find cooking difficult it could be worthwhile.

Aside: I own the Anova oven and it is quite nice! Much more convenient than traditional sous-vide.

We’re not talking about ancient history that recedes into mythology here. The Arabs conquered a whole bunch of land during a specific period of time that’s well documented in written history. When the Jews came back to their ancestral homeland, it wasn’t the Romans or Babylonians they found there. That matter fact is directly related to that former fact.

It's an interesting blog. Their whole idea is that you should focus less on beautiful code, computer science stuff, and superficial things like code formatting; you accomplish more when you focus on the problem domain, and try to accomplish what it is you set out to accomplish, even if it means ugly and repetitive code, or hacking something together sometimes.
Explaining the downpour of hurricane season is always fun. I legit don't think people believe the stories.

To be fair, it reminds me of the videos people have of throwing water in the air and it freezing before it lands. That sounds fake just typing it. :)
Depends on the source you read, but maintaining cruise at highway speeds only takes low double digits in horsepower.

Having more mainly comes in handy for ascents and acceleration, though electrical loads are a bit more constant.

(Another gripe of mine is how big engine sizes are in North America, it's not like Europe has low speed limits and no mountains)
Thanks for this write up. Your comment clears up a lot of the confusion I've had around these time series transformers.

How does lagged features for an MLP compare to longer sequence lengths for attention in Transformers? Are you able to lag 128 time steps in a feed forward network and get good results?
I'm wondering how to interpret this statement: "Long duration bonds have endured their worst drawdown in history." Is she saying something more than "interest rates went up?" Didn't they go up more when Volcker did it in the 1980's?

The graph in the article starts in 2010 and shows prices for an ETF for long-duration treasuries. It seems this is usually charted as market yield, and here's a graph from FRED of 20-year treasury market yields going back to 1953:

Instead of picking it up at the store, especially if it's more than 2 items, it'd literally be more convenient to pull out my phone and buy the items. If there's a line of even a few people, it's likely even faster.

Xamarin forms only supported GTK, gnome is built in GTK. That would be considered good enough by pretty much everyone Chrome and Edge don't have different builds for KDE and Gnome etc. It's a cup out.

I mean windows has had a bunch of different UI surfaces and paradigms that have been started and abandoned over the years. MAUI isn't targeting them all, is it?

In Linux they only needed to pick one. Hell even a browser surface like tauri with web based rendering would have been better than nothing, which is what Linux got.

First, each Blake version was written by a totally different authors AFAICT so while each version is faster, making a faster construction was a totally different team. I don't see why you're putting so much confidence that the original SHA-2 team could come up with a faster hash function.

FWIW, SHA-3 is slower than SHA-2 although of course SHA-3 is a totally different construction from SHA-2 by design.
Honestly I love Home Assistant and rely on it daily.

I guess it doesn’t do any harm but does that really need to be spelled out? Under what circumstances could a license be enforced if it wasn’t a contract?

Further, if Vizio are claiming to not have a contract, then they don’t have a license, which means they are admitting in court to have wilfully and knowingly committed copyright infringement.
Most of the discussion here is fairly constructive or supportive. There are snarky and sarcastic ass holes everywhere on the internet, and especially on hackernews. The best thing you can do as a creator is learn to take the constructive feedback and ignore the noise of sad people just trying to take a pot shot at your expense. I don't think we need to explicitly call that out here.

The author mentioned in another comment that he was designing the language to use what he likes from other languages and for writing his own game engine. That's a really cool project, and I think he would get a more positive response to his language if he was up front about that on his website. The joy of programming is pretty subjective and the use cases he presents are basically possible to do in any turing complete language.

I saw another language project on hacker news about neo haskell that was some random guy trying to become the benevolent dictator for life of the haskell ecosystem without really talking to anyone in that community. I think stuff like that makes people jaded and cynical (and rightly so in some cases) when folks make overbroad claims about tools that have well established alternatives or existing communities. Not trying to excuse the behavior but that might be part of why people are biased to be negative in cases like these.

Right, I guess I'm asking why anyone puts up with the idea of a state standard to begin with when it only benefits the state.
Not to my knowledge, at least in the US.

All aircraft in the US have a manufacturer-decided, and FAA-approved max amount of time between overhauls, and such overhauls are so thorough as to make the aircraft new again. (Sometimes, they even change enough things that the aircraft has to go through airworthiness tests again.)

These overhauls would definitely replace the Jesus nut if there's any hint of problems.

I am interested. You seem to be espousing a belief (that I hope I don't get wrong): "driving above 20mph in a city environment gives significant economic benefits, and should not be curtailed".

In roads, between cities, the benefits are obvious (or at least, I agree with you that they are substantial). So I expressed the belief you seem to hold with an added hypothesis of 'city environment'.

Do you agree with the belief as I quoted? Was I fair?

If so, why do you think so? I just tried some different paths in my city (currently with very low traffic) in google maps. The greatest average speed I was able to find was 26 mph. The city seems to work fine and have good economic development.

I used
>>> distance_in_km/((time_in_minutes)/60) * 0.62
(is this wrong? I don't think so)

Might be the case that I just lack intuition, but the advantages of much higher speeds inside the city limits do not seem obvious from an economic standpoint.
I would indeed hesitate if I believe that this would have any significant economic cost. A small reduction in productivity can be very costly in human suffering.

As to 'my side', I am not saying only that I want to reduce accidents. I am saying that I want to reduce accidents while increasing the amount of time people can safely spend outdoors and while increasing the activities that they can do outdoors.

The idea that a significant part of our cities must be (or simply is) high speed road is a choice, and I think it merits discussion.
There is a method that might make this even easier / safer for visually impaired persons. I don't remember where I got it from, and mind you, it sounds a bit off-putting, but it actually works. I don't use it often as it's not worth the hassle for me, but has it's advantages.

The trick is to add a cup of water to your ground beef, and mix it in thoroughly. Put that on the stove on high heat. Oil is optional as the fat from the meat will have melted by the time water evaporates. The ground beef will separate perfectly with very little effort. Cook it until it starts sizzling, then let it brown as needed. No hot oil, no clumps, no raw meat.

For any dish with a thick sauce (chilli, bolognese, etc) it tastes the same, would just avoid it when going for drier results like taco meat as the texture is different.
I mean, there weren't "statistics". We had a school of 300 kids and I could nearly name every one of them. After shit went down, everyone calmed the hell down. I don't know how to prove it or anything, but when people really needed to fight or something, they took it WAAAY off base.
I think the challenge will be for the employee to try and show that workplace conditions vs, WFH are so much worse to warrant organizing mass subordination as a way to improve it.

Seattle is more 'grey' than rainy. Which means things don't dry out, and it's really rough on Vitamin D levels. But not necessarily a lot of actual precipitation.

The Olympic or Cascade Mountain Ranges that roughly bracket Seattle get most of the actual precipitation. Even Snoqualmie which is right next to Seattle but a little higher gets ~ double the actual precipitation. Snoqualmie Pass (only ~ 3000 ft) nearby gets ~ 100 inches of precipitation, and 400 inches of snow on an average year.
Inkscape is purely an SVG editor, yes you can also view SVG images using inkscape but that is not its primary function. MathJaX’s primary function on the other hand is to find mathexpressions on a web page and then use javascript to turn them into HTML+CSS rendered equation.

If you want to write LaTeX and include the equivalent MathML in your webpage, then something like Temml is a lot better choice, as that is it’s primary function.

By spelling it out, a good judge would give summary judgment (read "judgment without expensive litigation") that the license is a contract and that the plaintiff (SFC in this case) has a right to sue.

I'm also fully unqualified, but short of the person that authentified the device coming up and detailing how they're the current owner, I still think a person with physical and proof of purchase should be prioritized.

If for instance the device had been sold to a different owner, that owner should have the receipt and be contactable (they have the email address and probably other info). And if the owner declared theft, we're out of Apple's field and it should be an official claim.

I see the passing down to a family member situation in the same light: if it was an informal transaction, the official owner is a still the same, and getting back the device unbricked and wiped out shouldn't be an ethical connundrum.

The thing that gives me the most pause is that Apple keeping a hard line on refusing to unbrick the device means they get an additional purchase from someone who's already heavily invested in the ecosystem. From their POV, bricking more devices has no counter incentives.
So does The Meta.
There is something unreasonably funny to me about the idea of someone getting carted off to jail for illegally downloading a ROM of a 27 year old game.

The person is timid about doing it, but everyone online was saying to just do it since everyone does and what is the worst that could happen. And then despite all of the very real crimes going on in the world, the police show up at this person's door.
MathML was designed to be an easy target for other authoring tools. This includes graphical editor (just like inkscape is for SVG) or libraries (just like D3 is to SVG).

I actually don’t like writing MathML, and I actually wrote a library my self that targets MathML.
There are certainly things you can reverse-engineer with relation to MacOS and Mac hardware. Not everything is reversible though, and even third-party projects like Asahi still have to run the Apple-engineered Boot ROM and device firmware. In the fictional, expressly non-real world where Apple deliberately compromises their hardware for intelligence agencies, you are a fish in a barrel. No amount of "adversarial maneuvering" will meaningfully save you.

Companies like Apple, Intel and AMD are proving to the world that the only secure hardware stack is a fully open one. God only knows what the second Snowden leak will reveal once current geopolitical tensions boil over...

Honestly if it's just the two messages they listed where she:

> Tweeted: “Don’t resign, let him fire you. You gain literally nothing out of resignation.”

> posted on Slack: “Don’t, be fired. Seriously.”

This just reads like someone giving advice to workers so they can get more $$. Without some more context this sounds like some hard spin by NRLB as if she was "organizing" workers against a "workplace issue". But I guess forcing a company to fire people is a expression of labour rights or something.

Bayes Theorem is universal. It’s one of the most fundamental results in probability.

Bayesian statistics is not. Most basic intro courses go the frequentist routes for historical reasons, but really both methods have their pros and cons.
