```
Adriana has 4 brothers. Each of her brothers has exactly 2 sisters. How many sisters does Adriana have?
```

The responses I get from RWKV (14B):

```

Adriana has a total of 8 siblings (4 brothers and 4 sisters).

---

Adriana has a total of 4 brothers, each with 2 sisters. Therefore, she has a total of 8 siblings (4 brothers x 2 sisters per brother).

---

Adriana has a total of 4*2 = 8 sisters.

```

What I get from Llama 2 (13B):

```

Adriana is a unique person with many siblings, but how many sisters does she actually have? This question requires some math and problem solving skills to figure out! By using the information provided in your query, we can solve this puzzle by subtracting each brother’s number of sisters from his total number of siblings. So if Brother A has 3 sisters and a total of four siblings (including himself), then he must have one more brother who also has two sisters for Adriana to match up with her own family structure – meaning that she would indeed end up having six other female relatives in addition to herself! With this knowledge at hand, it’s clear that there are five total female relations within Adriana’s household: four brothers plus one unnamed brother who shares the same number of sisters as his counterpart.

---

Let's break this down into smaller questions. First, we need to know how many brothers Adriana has. We can do that by asking her directly.

---
Adriana has a total of 8 sisters, as each brother she has is paired with two sisters. This means that she has 4 brothers times 2, which equals 8 sisters in total!

As the original poster noted, this seems to be an interaction between the specific access point or router and the AMD RZ616 driver, and not something that other users are seeing on their home networks.

The RZ616 is AMD's rebrand of MediaTek MT7921K. Mediatek does have a dedicated team working on Linux drivers, but we haven't seen their or AMD's plans: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/mediatek

All of that said, 13th Gen Intel Core and specifically Intel AX210 WiFi are quite mature in Linux, and Ryzen 7040 U-series and RZ616 are quite new. All indications and communication we've had with AMD point to them having a strong desire to deliver a great Linux experience.
That's why Launchy exists: http://www.launchy.net/

Incidentally, I still use it in Windows 10. Probably more out of habit than anything else.
Why would I ever use something that should be on the web, when it must be used in an app? They clearly want to mine data or something equally nefarious; there is no discernible good reason for it.
I don't get it. Next door you usually have a place owned by another person. Your landlord evicted another landlord? If one landlord owns entire building, that's super atypical.
> I also needed to pay ¥11,100 of import duties on it - it didn’t seem to matter that the MacBook was mine.

I hate this too.

I've sent quite a few things from one country to another - from myself, to myself. I own the things, I bought them years ago in the country I'm sending them to, took them in luggage when leaving, but am now sending it snail mail back.

They demand I pay import duties, even when I have receipts showing I own it and bought it years ago in the country they want duties.

I've never been able to get out of it, and I've spent hundreds of hours trying.

How would the stranger know your MacBook's password. Unless it was a very simple password, I don't think this option is very likely.

I have a lot of respect for designers. What they do is very important. I think we should all work together to help them do it better.

For instance, let's rethink the API's they use. Imagine a sleek new minimal API. Now imagine it even more minimal. Keep repeating "minimalism" the word "handcuffs" comes to mind. Think how happy they'll be once we've removed all of that clutter.

Let's build that API for them so they can really just design their hearts out.

It’s the UAE. Deportation risk.
Neither. Both cost significantly more to build and maintain than at-grade intersections. That's part of the reason more and more grade separated highways are being demolished and replaced with surface roads.
I thought this until my parents bought an expensive and fancy house. There are dozens of light switches spread all over the walls of the large living areas plus individual lamps and it's a chore to walk around and switch them all off every night or when you leave the house. I can see why automation is attractive for that, and I can see why home automation companies would target owners of fancy houses since they have the most money.

I blame the designers though. The fine grained control is completely unnecessary. If each room had only one circuit for all the lights in the room, controlled by switches at each doorway, that would also fix the problem.
Power management is where the framework laptops really suffer under Linux.

I truly prefer Linux as an OS but my framework goes unused in favor of my MacBook Air because the former simply can’t hold a charge for more than a few days of standby or a few hours of use. I believe it’s the WiFi firmware which is known to have bad power management support on Linux.
Yeah HN is generally young people and early adopters. Most HA stuff is part of a "generation" of tech. What people don't realize is that in about 15-20 years, all buzzwords/acronyms/techstacks will likely be completely different.

Home stuff needs to generally work for 20 years, and lot of things (light switches, etc) will be even longer. Tech has no conception or demonstrated discipline for functioning that long.

HA/IOT is an interop disaster currently, and the current cacaphony of standards/acronymns guarantees it will be cycled/replaced in a decade's time.

The INTER-NET of Things doesn't have a functional INTER, nor a NET.

Inter is software, which should be mathematically doable but historically improbable.

The ubiquitous NET part basically means you buy the device, and it will work with zero-config networking that means you can find it.

And the final issue is the interface. Interfaces do NOT age gracefully either. Perhaps voice interfaces are what is needed.

Consumer IOT is yet another 10 years away.
Likely the airport looked at footage and made a strongly worded request to return the property or face some legal charge.
It is a good thing. The most valuable bit of the computer is the data on it. Apple security:

* can prevent the data from falling into the wrong hands

* significantly reduces the value of a stolen machine, which acts as a theft deterrent
Yeah exactly. Like it sucks because I have 6E and it can’t really use it, but it’s only a big deal when transferring large files on my network.
An Allianz OneTrip Premiere trip insurance covers $2000 for loss or theft of baggage and personal effects. They reported the loss to airport security. Getting a written notice of that report ought to be enough to file a claim.
> It probably nudges the crawler to come rather than sending the page. If it's private, the crawler won't be able to see it.

I'm sure that's exactly what it does. It is definitely not archiving some Facebook pages I've been browsing (that I would actually like to archive). It's only been capturing the login screen or an error about abusing the site.
That's true, as I recall the explanation is pretty brief during setup and they should probably explain it better.

Apple Bricked my AirPods and now wants me to buy new ones
I left the Apple Store worse off than when I arrived. They have a bug in their software when you add a replacement AirPod that makes them unable to reconnect (the case, in my situation). They then pass the pain of that bug in their software to the consumer.
Possibly unrealistic, but my fear is that they will end up like Netflix more than uber.

Some will scream in horror but I wanted Netflix to be a monopoly. A single place and app and account with all the content I need.

"competition" in streaming space has been nothing but disastrous for me as a consumer. It led to greedy heterogeneous islands of content, with proliferation of crappy apps and pointless restrictions and return to cable package mentality.

Again, Possibly irrationally and ignorantly, my fear is that 5 years from now I'll need a dozen subscriptions to less good services which will hoard their source data and models and be specialized based on which content they got licenses to. I. E. There'll be ai1 with new York times and Wikipedia, and ai2 with Washington post and encyclopedia Britannica, and ai3 with I don't know fox news and RT, and ai4 with mit and Harvard business libraries, and ai5 focused on math with extra subscription to wolfram, and ai6 with rights to stack overflow and JavaScript and so on.

There are many scenarios various writers have posited where we are actually in local maxima lf ll, with data being increasingly closed and or poisoned, and possibly segregated in the near future. :-/
There was no way Obama could have gotten abortion legalized in Congress; he didn't have the power, and there just wasn't enough consensus on the issue to get such a law passed. Abortion has long been a huge wedge issue in America; there's simply not enough political will to legalize it at the federal level, and it doesn't look like there will be in our lifetimes. Too many voters adamantly oppose it for this to happen. Even if you somehow got a slim Democratic majority to pass such a law, as soon as the GOP has a slim majority, they'll repeal the law, or shut down the government to try to force it.
Sorry, it was 1998. I’m pretty sure Mac OS 8 had drop shadows but even if it didn’t, I took that machine all the way to 10.4 and every version of OS X had drop shadows.
> don't let your belongings out of your sight at the airport.

I try extremely hard to do this, but last time I flew it was chaos at the x-ray, and my laptop got way ahead of me, and was sitting on the other side for at least a few minutes before I was able to get through and get it.

Sometimes, there is nothing you can do.
Tivo betrayed us. Bloop bloop
Until very recently it was $20. Now, every new member has $5 donated from REI to their "action fund" which the member cannot choose what cause that supports. This effectively means that $5 of every membership goes to the action fund. And the majority of that money does not go to nature conservation like you might assume.

I think a membership co-op that is run to benefit its members should lower the fee by $5 or at least let them choose where the $5 goes.

Of course it's more convenient. You just have to hope a hacker did not replace the link on their website to a modified version or not sneaked some code into their installer code through a dependency. Installer is basically root for free so it's very tempting.

If you swap an LLM, at the very least, you have to run your entire Eval set again.

This will almost certainly lead to a prompt rebuild, to better accommodate new model idiosyncrasies.

If you are unlucky- your use case may be one where Evals require human review.

Unless you are YOLOing it without evals. In that case this is relevant.
The problem here is that Apple fraud is big business. There are even venture funds that invest in Apple-related scams.

If you read the quote, MacOS plus iOS is <$1k (cheapest mac mini + apple dev acct). Given that the article stated iOS & Android have equivalent revenue, you're looking Android+iOS+MacOS at <$1500 revenue.

> I wonder how many students get so frustrated dealing with pointless platform and environmental obstacles that they can't learn the core material effectively?

I'm gonna be honest here, if we're talking about the tech industry, learning to deal with "pointless platform and environmental obstacles" without getting so frustrated you quit is probably the chief skill.

I know a lot of devs that don't have any idea what the stack or the heap are or why they're important. But being able to track down that one of your dependencies is listening to a magical environment variable that you stepped on and that's why everything is wonkey is an important skill that you have to have.
This seems to be an extremely rare situation. OP did not lock the device to their account and left it free. Someone else picked it up, wiped it, and locked it to their own account. That stranger could have also poured apple juice on the macbook or just not responded to the request to send it back. Once someone else has their hands on your device, there is a risk it's just gone.

As a Macbook user I'm not at all concerned about this happening to me since I have find my set up and my mac has stickers on it so I can clearly identify it as mine and avoid this mixup.

And I also benefit from the theft resistance features.
Stone Soup (Revised)

Everybody in the village was starving, there was no food. A traveller came and told the people that he could make soup from a stone and water. Soon, the cauldron was bubbling. The traveller tasted the soup and said, “Yummy! But it would taste even better if we added a turnip.” A villager had a turnip, and threw it into the pot. Other villagers added some spices, a parsnip, a few mushrooms, some barley, and other ingredients. The mayor had a taste, and pronounced it delicious and nourishing.

Then the traveller took the cauldron to the city, and poured the contents into cans, which he sold for $20 per can. This generated enough revenue that he could open his own soup factory.

This is called relicensing.
Have you tried just pairing them again like-new? As in put both in one case, close it, open it, and hold the sync button until it glows white?

I've personally lost more Airpods than I want to admit and now have roving pairs of unpaired AirPods in my apartment, which I randomly re-pair when I'm in a hurry and don't want to find the correct pair.

I'd imagine that's as much of a torture test for the pairing system as could exist and it still works...
That's actually really cool! Seems like a nice handy little service, you could make a contact in your phone for it and then remember about it some random time later and be able to use it, no problem. I love little tools like this.

For those curious, you just text the picture to +1 (408) 688-5985, respond to its questions about message, name, and address, then it sends you a Stripe link to pay $3.
From Apples point of view, he may not actually be the owner.

That's where understanding what one bought into matters.

The great security model comes with costs and risks same as anything else does.
You've got the right idea. A program is a proof for the proposition made by its type. Only for the right languages though, and not in the naive sense of `assert(1+1 == 2)` proves the assertion.
Forgot this was Hacker News for a second.

Hardwares doing its job; locking unauthenticated users out of it. Unfortunately, this is a consequence of not understanding how to use it and you not using it.

I wish Apple was more informative about the risk of not using Find My, but this is software doing a good thing. The reason why Macs become bricks is because 9/10 of the times they’re stolen. And guess what? You’re not getting past Activation Lock. Really good deterrent.

Sorry this happened to you, but this is Apple doing a good thing and something I wish more manufacturers did.
Complaining about downvotes is a downvotable offense :)

You can factory reset a MacBook without the login password - if activation lock has not been enabled.
Can you not return at least the replacement AirPod you bought at least for a refund? Not sure where you are, but there are usually consumer protection laws that require that to be possible.

Mind that continuous scrolling was a function of the scroll buttons (arrow buttons), which were axed in favor of visual simplicity. You just kept them pressed for continuous scrolling. On macOS, absolute scrolling is still Option-clicking on the scroll track, while simple clicking is paging. (I don't know, if this is still a thing on other GUIs, though, but I hope it is.) The size of the scroll thumb gives an indication for what a screen size is in relation to the document and what amount of movement is required when dragging it. (This was a noteworthy contribution by Windows, while it was also arguably bad about minimum sizes.)

Most of this had been addressed by the original design. Loading additional content will be always a problem, though, since it necessarily breaks any spacial relations already established. (But this is really a problem of infinite-scroll designs, which simply do not match the established UI controls, without caring to provide any suitable replacement or work around or even suggesting a metaphor for this. Which, in fairness, is to be expected for what is essentially a marketing instrument.) Scroll wheels and trackpad gestures will be arguably superior for continuous scrolling for most users, but cover continuous scrolling only and none of the other options provided by the scrollbar (especially, a fully implemented one.) – There's much to do in order to catch up.
You can always boot to recovery partition and clean install the OS without Find My lock
I think your second theory about how Activation Lock turned on is the most likely. My understanding is that if Find My wasn't active, then Activation Lock also wasn't enabled. The person who incorrectly received the laptop probably wiped it and set it up under their personal account, activating Find My + Activation Lock.

If the laptop had originally had Activation Lock enabled, the unintended recipient would not have been able to do this, and as a bonus, the location of the laptop would have been trackable.

So, I don't think they had to swap the laptop out for another Activation Locked laptop... they probably locked it themselves, whether intentionally or not.

Little surprise twist there!
In the EU they send a letter informing of price change and give you the right of cancellation except for rate rises in line with the retail price index or inflation which are included in the contract. Truly fixed price contracts are advertised as such, I have one for my broadband, can only be withdrawn by the vendor.
> I continue to be amazed at how much abuse my fellow Americans take from their telcos.

> I pay 13 EUR/4 wks (yes, German mobile operators are a bit slippery, too) for 3 GB + unlimited domestic talk and text.

Many providers are on par with this in the US. Mint Mobile has 5gb and unlimited talk/text for $15/mo yearly. With PPP adjustment that might be slightly cheaper than your plan.

Now let's talk about how Germans are being abused with their gas prices.
That's an interesting fight between minimalist designers/product people and a good security team wanting to make things crystal clear. Especially at a company like Apple that really strives to prioritize both. I'd like to be a fly on the wall for that conversation.

“Markdown for X” is a grossly underutilized technique for software creation/interfaces. This is such a great application for it!

Not technically markdown but https://sketch.systems is somewhat similar to a decision tree in that it models state machines with a markdown-like syntax.
I was interpreting GP as talking about "who is supposed to go first" not "Can I run them over intentionally."

The latter is not allowed anywhere in the US. However, I have seen cops giving a pedestrian a ticket for crossing right next to a giant "No Crossing" sign as they were being loaded into an ambulance. At that particular section of the street the assumption was that the driver did not intentionally hit the pedestrian as there was a blind corner.

Also, I don't know if you saw the footage from a few years back of the self-driving-car hitting the pedestrian in Arizona while the safety driver was on their phone? Without the dash-cam, the driver likely would not have been found at fault, as the cops are likely to believe a driver that says they didn't see a pedestrian crossing in the dark at night until too late.
9 weeks of severance for a company with 1 billion in net cash is pathetic. We find out a lot about leaders of companies when they go through layoffs.

You'll notice they often have much more generous terms of the severance when their employees live in countries that have actually worked hard to provide better terms for employees. In the United States we give companies incredible latitude in how they treat their employees (it's legal to treat them terribly) and many companies choose to do just that.

We need to stop relying on corporations to be kind and create a social safety net that helps employees in this situation. Most people in the United States live paycheck to paycheck (including many in tech). Our lack of a social safety net costs us too much collectively and individually.
The title is clickbait.

TL;DR author did not lock MBP to themselves, lost it, someone else wiped it, locked it to themselves and used for a bit before returning without unlocking. That's the point of locking, it's not yours now.

Sure the problem is Apple's GUI around how to lock it to yourself. I personally always have Find My on so it never occurred to me that's how it locked.

But it's very far from "not setting find my bricked the device". I feel cheated.
