Haven't had any issues w/ using VSCode connected to a remote dev environment tbh and we're full remote (Airbnb).

You can always develop locally if you're on the plane or w/e. In our case local builds try to use a remote runner if available if not they happen locally.
The seller won't be 6% richer. It's unlikely they'll capture the entire fee. Still, the seller and the buyer splitting 6% is a lot of money.

I believe it's it's humans (for RLHF and other things) and data. If it were just power and chips, the current front-runner would be a corporate behemoth or a state, not OpenAI. (They might become a corporate behemoth soon enough but they aren't so far.)
There are many errors here. A core one is this:

> As you'd guess, this only becomes a problem when people run the bank and the bank needs to sell those Treasuries to meet deposit requirements.

Go through a though process:

- If you can deposit your money into a bank with 5% returns and with 0.1% returns, where will you put it?

- If a bank is locked into a long-term investment with subpar yields, what kinds of interest rates can it offer?

- If other banks can trivially give higher yields, where will money go?

BOA is holding securities with (1) a lower resale value if sold now (2) lower yields if held to maturity. It's almost the same thing.

If I buy a 30-year bond with a 1% yield /on the expectation of being able to offer deposits at a 0.5% yield/, and suddenly /depositors expect a 5% yield/, I'm in deep trouble.
Having in in machine readable form that runs really keeps things running.
The “mixture of experts” concept in LLMs is a way of training a single model, it’s not based on training many different models (although that was the idea when the term was originally coined).
Massive in terms of the changes going into it rather than the time required. Commits will be batched together while the previous CI/CD job runs, then each deploy will have a bunch of stuff on it. A single failure will halt the deploy for every change, and someone will need to go find and revert whatever caused it. Microservices split up the management across services, which ideally means each team only has to fix its own broken builds.

I want to be clear that I don't think microservices are a good idea for most companies. I just disagree with "Micro-anything is the philosophy based in the presumption that your engineers will not respect softer walls and modules and therefore strong ones must be constructed." It's not about the walls, it's about the independence of development and deployment. There are easier ways to enforce walls without such ridiculous operational and technological overhead.
> THIRTY percent of revenue

What is a reasonable percentage?

> ...a legal mandate to allow third party app stores.

My proposal is a bit more, um, simple:

Apple's App Store must be spun off and operated as an entirely separate entity. Maybe even run as a nonprofit org.

I cannot abide by markets also competing with their own vendors. Apple cannot both run the App Store and sell its own apps on it. They must pick a lane and stick to it.

Ditto Amazon, Walmart, Google, etc. Amazon can be an e-commerce site or sell Amazon Basic (etc), but not both.

Said another way: No vertically integrated monopolies. Dominate one market, by default or by design, fine (sort of). But using that domination to enter and dominate other markets, adjacent or otherwise, is not allowed.
It's especially frustrating because so many projects only ship with helm chart documentation for their containers.

If you're not doing a unicorn style deployment (100% of users) then you're SOL.

K8s is probably the best/closest thing we have to a workable service "package manager" for server environments. It's a fairly reasonable way of packaging and deploying random stuff to random servers in a sustainable and secure fashion when all you're trying to manage is a small dev pipeline or a prototype/homelab type setup. Instead it feels like the community is trying to skip right over some of the most beneficial use cases for the tech and go straight to nonsense unicorn land.
i'm doubtful of this being causation. But, if it is, isn't this basically a clickbait-y way of saying you are trying to create "sunk cost"?

I'm assuming this thread is non-programming related since that's like everything else on this website

Probably Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit. And it didn't impact me in a way where I agreed with it, it was more the opposite. It sort of made me realize "oh, this is what bullshit looks like" and I was able to take that and apply it elsewhere

I'll give an example... Hegel sort of works like this: person X says A, person Y says B, there's a disagreement, they both fight to the death and person X enslaves person Y, then person Y goes crazy, turns to religion (I'm not bullshitting here either, he introduces the priest at this point in the master slave dialectic [0]), then person Y affirms their own slavery both physically and mentally. This is the basic process on which "history" happens

Think about this for a second, all of those people who died in the 20th century because of this guy's bullshit. I read his garbage cover to cover, lesson learned: bullshit is dangerous. There's a reason why Hegel doesn't like math. After I read this guy, it made me realize something: non-technical non-fiction is fiction

[0] "As a separate, independent extreme, it rejects the essence of its will, and casts upon the mediator or minister [priest] its own freedom of decision, and herewith the responsibility for its own action. This mediator, having a direct relationship with the unchangeable Being, ministers by giving advice on what is right." (para 228)

The Better Angels of Our Nature by Steven Pinker.

Not because of the actual topic, although that's important too; but because of the first 150 or so pages, where Pinker starts by saying something like: you won't believe me about how violence has declined unless I first disabuse you of the notion that the past was nice. He then describes how truly awful pretty much everyone and everything was in the past. It was an eye-opener.

Those who romanticize the past (which is most people) do themselves a grave disservice.
this is going to be something of a disaster :) People travel together and like to sit next to each other, it's just going to be so confusing for some parties, and so many people are going to try to cheat, mayhem.

I have come to appreciate downloadable apps that work out of the box. This immediate gratification lowers friction because users can walk away if it’s not right for them. Don’t waste your user’s time.

I made a decision early on with my electron app (Label LIVE, to design and print labels from excel/CSV) to make it fully functional on first start. The only catch is the print has a randomly placed watermark. If it works for the user, they can signup for a free trial to remove the watermark for 14 days. If after two weeks they have found value in the product they can purchase a perpetual or subscription license.

I think the strictest laws in the US require a total of two rear-facing mirrors. (Some states allow vehicles with only one mirror) So, two side mirrors count. Back in the early 90s you could buy new cars that came with only a driver side mirror and an interior rear-view mirror -- the passenger side mirror was an option!

DRM-free e-books are a big deal (2019)
I get most of the books I read from the public library. Sometimes I want to buy and gift books to friends. Only a few publishers (Tor, and other sci-fi publishers, as noted in this article) have determined that it's better to not bother with digital rights management.
I haven't yet found as a DRM-free epub the book I want to gift, and I may end up not buying it at all because of that.
In addition to whatever discussion this URL might bring about, here's an Ask: What can I do, in addition to not buy books (quietly speaking with my wallet?), to promote DRM-free epub sales?

I'm pretty sure Samsung does a fake-out like this to display your 80% charge as 100. (Samsung.tablet at least)
I don't think there's a way to manually limit it to 80% within Pixel's settings. If you turn on Adaptive Charging, it'll charge it to 80% overnight and bump it to 100% just before you unplug your phone in the morning.

Police then get warrants for users' electronic devices

But that’s not what happened. I don’t practice in Colorado, but my guess is that a judge would deny such a warrant without something more, e.g. the person has a prior conviction for arson, or there’s a personal connection with the victims. If you’re just the Amazon delivery guy, I don’t see it happening.
That sounds much more expensive operationally, to save minutes of aircraft downtime.

i was thinking of silicones because silanes are unstable even at room temperature, let alone at undersea-vent temperatures, while silicones can be stable up to lava temperatures if you don't require them to be organic (the alkali silicates i mentioned upthread, which gradually shade into the kinds of organic-functionalized silane surfactants used to enable organics to bond to phyllosilicate functional fillers). maybe silanes, dissolved in liquid ammonia, could work at low temperatures, but i doubt it

my thought with the undersea vents is that, if there was a diverse hadean or archean ecosystem of non-carbon-based life, some of it should have survived in the parts of the vents that are too hot for carbon-based life. maybe the cells that froze to death in boiling water would become food for carbon-based extremophiles, but the cells in the hotter parts of the rock should be safe

but we don't observe that, and i think that the most likely explanation is that there wasn't any silicone-based life in the hadean

nucleic acids are definitely not a requirement for all forms of life

On my 13 mini, I just set a shortcut to turn on power save mode when power save mode is turned off.

I also set a geofence around the cell dead spot at my house to enable airplane mode.

The latter spams notifications due to an (anti-stalking?) “feature” of shortcuts that doesn’t let you disable geofence notifications.

That bug can then be fixed by exploiting another bug by enabling screen time, the creating a custom app shortcut that produces a notification. Run the custom app a bunch and screen time will decide it is spam, and force-enable the “disable notifications” toggle for the shortcuts app. (Apparently this doesn’t work on some of the newer/higher end iPhones. My guess is they copy pasted the policy logic for each model, and forgot to backport a bugfix).

The above greatly increased battery life and did so transparently.

Now, all I need to do is buy a smart plug and have it toggle the power on a low-speed charger when the iPhone battery is above 80% or below 60%.

After that, I’ll do the same for my watch and iPad.

Couldn’t be simpler.

Hello. I'm the head of product for Actions. Thank you for the comments and we take all customer feedback seriously. I wanted to let you know that we are working on the "you cannot view logs of ongoing jobs" issue.

That to me is one of the most interesting aspects. Somehow, these people who were deeply spiritual, also were adepts of science, and while we can’t say any of them got it exactly right, the paths intersected enough that their contributions were in some ways foundational.

Psychology and psychiatry are two other fields that traveled the path of spirituality and occultism before becoming what we now term modern.

I always assumed the bottleneck was readying the plane so it doesn’t really matter how quickly you board. And people would prefer to not sit on the plane waiting around. I have no idea if this is true.
Unlikely. Virtually all lithium batteries display similar characteristics with respect to charging.

Charging faster is something that can be variable between chemistries, but typically batteries are fine with charging quite quickly in the first 80% regardless, and can be made to tolerate fast charging (though usually you sacrifice a little bit of lifespan or total capacity to increase that tolerance)
Look at the leadership’s connection with google and this becomes easier to understand.

Then again we walk about touching things, leaving convenient DNA samples for anyone to collect throughout the day. It’s only because sequencing is relatively high cost at present that we have the illusion of privacy. Once we go in equivalent terms from mainframes to single board computers in the DNA world, then anyone can pretty much have at your personal genome.

Would love to see how the criminal forensic science guys adapt their narrative to this impending reality.
The article mentions retention rate down 30% but makes no mention of conversion rate. Was it up by the same amount? Was it up by more? Did the MRR change? There's not enough information here to make any kind of conclusion.

They also seemed to give up very quickly on the low-friction version. Maybe they could have iterated to reduce time-to-value, by pre-populating some example dummy data or something.
Priority Boarding

This always fails because half the plane consists of business travelers with priority boarding due to status.

This is something that Southwest got right by not having assigned seats. And as a result, they turn planes faster than any other airline.

I saw the Cydia store, I see the Google Play store, I see the Microsoft Windows store, I see the internet outside the stores and all the software offerings on the web and on GitHub and Sourceforge and all the rest. What makes you think there's some secret buried treasure of high quality apps and not an overwhelming noise of 99% crud? And no, one example of a good program doesn't refute this, this is not a claim that there are zero good programs outside the app store (or even that there are 100% good programs inside it), this is a claim that removing moderation would be like removing the walls of your house in winter - how dare you try to keep the heat in and the cold out when I know of some warm places outside; the majority of places outside are cold.

This is like wishing for unmoderated blog comments; I like this blog[1] but see how long the scrollbar is, scroll down until the original sensible comments turn into spam. Yes there may be a good comment lost in anti-spam moderation systems, but getting rid of them is worse.

What kind of 2fa? TOTP?

Check the clock on your device.
Watched a debate on major media channels where people were arguing that pictures of killed children were AI pictures (and the opposite side refusing it)

What kind of a world we have devolved into, where technological progress makes us less human, on average.

I am saddened by the changes brought about by AI, be it generative art or LLMs, where, because of it, on a global scale, no one knows what truth is, even in pictures and videos.

And we have the perfect tinderbox of siloed wells on social media, with tools to generate authentic looking content that can be disseminated at essentially 0 cost, automated at 0 effort and be used to indoctrinate people at 0 consequences from governments.

It does not matter if people are caught after the fact, the mind that has been indoctrinated, cannot be reverted with the same ease.

And we are generating a bunch of children now, who will be adults later, who will essentially reject reality, reject the need for empathy because what they see may or may not be the truth.

It used to be that 10 years before, if one saw the pictures of carnage or destruction or dead children, a spark of empathy may be generated, enough to ignite change, no matter how small. In the near future, that may not be the case because that photo or video or content has the probability of being AI generated and that spark of empathy will die without a chance to ignite change.

And now we have billions of dollars being invested by the very governments that will feel the effects of these short sighted decisions to unleash technology seldom understood and have no clue as to its long term effects.

Plus, carry-on luggage:

The problem in practice with boarding people in back first is that:

1. They tend to put their carry-on in the first bin they find in the front of the airplane. So people sitting in the front have to put theirs in the back. This is a disaster later in the boarding process because there isn't enough room for people to circulate back up to the front after they stow their carry-on.

2. Frequent fliers and people who purchased premium economy seats expect to be able to bring a carry-on. They tend to sit in the front the plane, so the problem for #1 affects them more.

This is relevant to United's new policy because boarding people with windows in the back board before people with aisles in the front.

unless initial property is start of dynamic operation, in which case, holding almost anywhere begins at the first operation after the start of the dynamic operation. process / lambda / epsilon calculi is just symbolic math. address 0 static, everything else dynamic.

per math, dimension N is static, to be able to "change things up" in dimension N, need to to be almost everywhere higher than dimension n. Edge cases are weird in any dimension. Guess why logicians just do the equivalent of C's !0

(cast boolean logic) B=0

C statement !(!B == A) hold everywhere and almost everywhere depends on how read C spec to interpret A & B.
