I cannot fathom how someone has the attention to analyze these shows to note the chairs being used. Frankly, the Stokke Globe Garden is so far in the background of the Lower Decks screen capture that I can't understand how someone picked up on it.

Absolutely not, when we are discussing the philosophical basis of that worldview.

Those arguments are not simply "linked in Marinetti's head". they are parts of a broader ser of views that would organize the world in a certain manner.

This is brought up due to an apparent endorsement of the author to Marinetti's ideas. Commenters pointing that out is absolutely not an Ad Hominem when those very ideas are being discussed.

I don't remember if there's an informal fallacy of falsely claiming an informal fallacy, but calling this an Ad Hominem is a great example of such.
Humans are in general not aligned, not to each other, and not to the survival of their species, not to all the other life on earth, and often not even to themselves individually. alignment in the broad sense isn't really about "morals" or "values". a man is murdered because his desire to live is misaligned with the perpetrator's desire to kill. The man that was killed could well be hitler.

If you as a manager had the ability to align any employee to your wants completely, that human would never be socially engineered.

It's fair to call the issue social engineering yes. That's not the point i was getting at. The point in essence is that solving prompt injection holds the same gravitas solving social engineering would, i.e a way to completely align intelligence.

Where is the Jamas government in all this ? Why doesn’t Israel ask for their extradition? Also is Israel still collecting taxes for them in Gaza ?
The worst offenders in that regard are probably public transit ticketing machines. In addition to every system being different, in some locations, you now have lines of possibly jet-lagged tourists who may not be native speakers of the default language fumbling with machines and nbot quite sure what to do with whatever pieces of paper the machine spits out.

> R&D and the map-making are substantial costs.

But that's largely a sunk cost that (in SF anyway) has already been spent, right? It's not like that cost goes up on a per-ride basis.

For places where that's already done, you only need to account for the cost of sensors/compute/maintenance of the vehicle themselves, which seem (intuitively) like they would be lower than the expense to users. Which would mean that a ride is net positive.

Maybe it's the case that configuring and maintaining the cars is incredibly expensive. That would be the only way I could envision actually losing money on a "per ride" basis.
I realize this peaked with old hardware, but I wonder, do visual artists that want to use the latest hardware for similar art not count as part of the demoscene? Why not? I imagine these hackers liked the technical challenge but also the aesthetics.

I don't think it's a matter of leaders on either side. Especially not on the Palestinian side. In the end, the only voice that has any influence in the West is that of Israel. Palestinians are ignored or blamed. Even the fact that the major human rights organisations agree that Israel is practicing apartheid (an accusation that is one of the gravest) has simply failed to produce a dent in the support of Western countries for Israel's government.

I think Israelis really need to ask themselves if they're sincere in their support for the creation of a Palestinian state. Which entails removing settlements, establishing and respecting an international border, and accepting that they will have to give up land and never, ever, expand Israel by another square centimetre. I saw the huge protests against Netanyahu in the last months- they have been saluted in the West as the proof of the civil conscience of democratic Israelis. However, I have not seen such huge protests, not even much smaller ones, to stop what human rights organisations call apartheid- which is incommensurably worse than a law to limit the powers of the Supreme Court. What is a Supreme Court that allows apartheid worth anyway?

My experience has been the opposite: I was trying to get it to read an image of a data table with header and the usual excel table color palette . It could not read most of the data. Then I tried similar read experiment with Enterprise architecture diagrams saved as png files ... same issue as it missed most of the data.

There's a noticeable difference between self-checkout stations, for example:

The stations at my local Harris teeter are unable to handle the user quickly scanning+placing products in the bagging area. I imagine this has to do with how the software translates changes in the bagging-area weight to a count of items. When this happens you have to wait around for the system to decide you aren't, in-fact, stealing.

These same stations also prevent further item scanning once an age restricted item (e.g. alcohol) is scanned, forcing you the wait around for the attendant before you can continue with your items.

Contrasted to the self-checkout stations at my local food-lion, which have none of these issues, the lack of UX is frustrating.

To top off with some non-content: You'd really think more people would have learned how to reliably scan barcodes after observing others do it hundreds, if not thousands, of times.
I'm in the US, and my local Stop & Shop location does this; however, they also have a robot loaded with cameras and sensors that patrols the store "checking for spills" (and can theoretically also monitor for theft, and was also rolled out amidst a strike). It's also somewhat unsettling, despite the googly eyes (it always makes my kid upset).

Also, that flag enables only unreliable detection of the issue. It won't catch it 100% of the time. :D It also interferes with other flags and checkers like Valgrind and adds bloat to the executable as a bonus.
You don't buy card numbers individually. You buy lists of them, of varying quantity, quality and price and you just cycle the numbers until you find ones that work.

Costs per card about $5 bucks, and will get cycled into a multi-merchant hit to extract the most value from each card. A $1 Twitter charge, $50 bucks in digital gift cards, a "maybe it will work" hit for hundreds in electronics, or clothes, etc.

If nothing else, Twitter just made itself a GREAT place to test stolen numbers, since a $1 charge isn't likely to raise any flags and get the card shut down.
I played an arcade strategy game that used arrow keys to navigate through pie menus which I thought was a pretty interesting concept. It's akin to learning arcade "combos." The sequence eventually becomes muscle memory, but it's very self-revealing before then, too.

As much as I would love to have a huge modular rack in my house, I am happy with a blend of physical and digital stuff. My first purchase was an Arturia Microbrute, which is just excellent for learning basic, monophonic synthesis. It's a knob-per-function device so there's nothing better than just twisting knobs and stumbling onto an amazing sound.

I send that through a cheap echo-delay pedal, then a reverb pedal, so I have a lot of control over the dynamics of whatever sound I'm making. I tend to use the Brute for basslines but it's super versatile.

From there, it depends on what I'm trying to make or play with, but I've had a great time using the Brute as both sound and MIDI input to get some nice layered input. VSTs are totally preferential of course, but I have the Arturia Jupiter 8 VST for when I want to get REALLY deep into analog synths without spending $25k on a working physical model.

Otherwise, I also have an Arturia Beatstep Pro (I'm an Arturia fanboi for sure, but their stuff is affordable and fun) which I can control the Brute with via CV in case I want to have it play a loop while I twist some knobs. I also have a profile set up in Ableton that allows me to use all the Beatstep Pro knobs to control various knobs/sliders on the Jupiter 8 VST, which has opened me up for a lot of possibilities. Beyond that, the Brute has a "mod panel" which allows for some fun stuff like jumping the LFO to the sub bass knob - the Brute is monophonic but has an overtone generator you can tune anywhere from -8 to +5.

It sounds like modular or custom synthesis are what you are looking for, but for my level of skill/time/hobby it's nice to have a setup that can fit entirely on an old Yamaha keyboard :)

The demo scene was so formative. Like many others of a certain age in the 3D industry, I was first a demo scene coder, because what else was one to do if you were good at math and computer science but still stuck in high school?

My 1997-era renderer did reflections, bump, color textures, etc all in 16 bit using x86 assembler rasterizers, no floating point, with 256 color palette - source can be found from this link: https://twitter.com/benhouston3d/status/1260346800176877571

Ask HN: AI Mind Cloning, Are We There Yet?
Our phones are constantly with us, silently recording patterns from our habits to our emotions.

Think about it: a device that knows when we eat, sleep, or even feel stressed.

Now imagine an AI tool that uses this data, stored privately, to understand and predict our well-being.

Could AI soon "clone" our minds to guide us towards happiness? How close are we to this reality?

with the latest wearable devices I am starting to see how we might get there

I'm not sure where that view comes from. Vitalik has pushed back a against price speculation, called out scams, and refused to accept free money from people who were attempting to use an association with Vitalik as a way to scam others.he even has the famous quote of "have we earned it?"

When I look at people in the blockchain space, Vitalik is as far from "cryptobro" as you can get. Just because he created Ethereum doesn't mean he supports what many scammers use it for. He has no power to stop them beyond what he's already doing.

See how paid actors and shills quickly jump in push the "it was not a lab leak" concerning a virus that was deliberately engineered with the additional benefit of creating profit from patented cures.

Very early on after the virus genome was released a group of Indian researchers quickly noted that the virus had been deliberately engineered and they were quickly shut down,

then one Peter Daszak who was financing GoF research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology got a group of scientists to publish a paper saying it was not engineered and the Chinese were not involved in any such thing.

I've self-published a number of novels that got organic 4-5 stars and positive reviews on Amazon, and unfortunately in my tries Amazon ads for books had negative ROI. On the other hand, Facebook ads had a very positive affect on sales, until some bizarre incorrect algorithmic decisions by Facebook made it too much of a pain in the ass to deal with their ad manager and I gave up on it.

In any case, if you're really interested in advertising you should give Facebook a try. As long as they work, their algorithms somehow magically find people who will actually buy your book.
It's unfortunately an expensive device, but we like to argue that "first in kind" devices are often very expensive[1] before economies of scale and other efficiencies can drive them down. The Apple Vision Pro is set to retail for $3,500 (vs. our base unit at $2,700 right now).

Monkeemath is set up to scrape comments across Reddit and Stocktwits that include a stock ticker. It then uses ChatGPT to determine whether the comment is bullish or bearish on the outlook of the ticker. This data is then presented via charts and tables across the site.

Features:
-A daily leaderboard displaying the top mentioned symbols as well as the sentiment with which the ticker is being mentioned. The leaderboard can be filtered allowing you to sort by mention count or sentiment, you can also filter on date to check out the leaderboard on previous days.

-A raw comment feed that allows you to see the raw comments and the sentiment that ChatGPT assigned to the comment. You can filter the raw comments by source, sentiment and symbol

-A graphing page that allows you to see the price movement of stocks mapped over their respective mention counts and mention sentiment’s.

-An API that allows you to programmatically access all of my mention data

-An insight page that allows you to see how the sentiment of a stock on any given day affects its price the next day. This page will show you what has happened historically when the sentiment matches the sentiment of the previous day.

-A prediction game where users can make accounts and make predictions for how a certain stock will perform by a certain date.

- User profiles where other users can visit your page and see your past and current predictions, they can also leave a comment on your profile wall.
Grocery needs a little more tech to be perfectly convenient. Best I've seen are handheld scanners with electronic scales in the produce area to let you get barcodes for all your produce. The handheld scanner to let you scan and pack away from the checkout area. When you get to the checkout area, you generate a barcode that loads all the items into the self-checkout and pay.
Prepare for viewport resize behavior changes coming to Chrome on Android (2022)
It seems like not all Android-based browsers have switched to resize the visual viewport like iOS does. I'm sure that Android browsers had their reasons to default into completely redoing the layout when a keyboard comes up, but I'm not sure what advantages it brings (or what the disadvantages are of the iOS way). Maybe it wasn't considered?

Don't get me wrong: the iOS way is better, since the browser isn't recalculating the entire page's layout on every frame (so animations are smoother), and not potentially triggering different media queries.
Since a single inference is limited by context length, a multiple agents model is able to process more context at each steps of the reasoning chain, which might improve the overall quality. However, given how easy it is getting to fine tune models, it's likely that multi-agent models will make a lot of sense to split the workload and assign each part to a specialized agent.
I see a lot of comments that disagree with the article. Where I live in the US, the only grocery store near me has four self-checkout machines and only one other cashier on duty. This results in lines through the entire length of the store at all hours. People with $200 worth of groceries are checking themselves out and taking at least 20 minutes to complete the process. The people who have 12 items or less have to wait for a long time to leave the store.

I’m all for self-checkout if it is limited to 12 items or less because it is significantly slower to scan and bag groceries yourself than to have two people who are trained at this.

The process is so slow that we drive an additional 15 minutes away just to avoid that grocery store.

I had this discussion with a friend who wants to buy whatever Apples new VR offering is, I believe it’s around £3,500. He swore it would increase his productivity because it offers virtual screens so he can have as many as he wants. It ‘suits the way he works’

He’s just got his first junior dev role, and loves going into the office as much as he can, and thinks that this bit of kit will be better than the monitors on his desk, which are the Apple Studio Displays.

I’ll let him make his own decisions on what hardware to buy, but I am very tempted to apply for my old role back just to witness some muppet sat at his assigned desk wearing a VR headset to code. What a time to be alive.
