I have a couple of Tile fobs from before Apple moved into the space. They're still good enough for checked bag tracking while flying (at least to confirm the bag has made it to the terminal). Tracking is pretty limited without the subscription, but enough to sanity check. It would also work as a "last seen" location, which might be enough for your example (you don't need the network unless your device moves).

Find My should also give you a push notification if you leave a device somewhere? But you'll get false positives if you turn off Bluetooth.

For humanity, really? So he cares about humans? Human rights? He values life?

He seems to care for future humans, current humans can suffer, it doesn’t matter because everything will be so great in 100 years. But wait, maybe it won’t be so great because another great leader will disregard current humans, for humanity?

As soon as I landed my family member couldn’t see the AirTag I carry anymore, nor my phone.
Find My is great. I hid an AirTag in my bike, which got promptly stolen (as bikes tend to be in London): I had near-zero hope but police _actually_ was keen to retrieve it, it evolved into a multi-week adventure where they tried to retrieve it several times but the thief just rode away. Ended up finding it in a shady bike shop, with a fresh new coat of bright silver paint.

I was skeptical when I bought the airtag, I thought I'd just lose a bike _and_ an airtag, but now I can't recommend it enough!
Drive-by response:

I’d ask two questions — how possible is it to isolate the code which is proprietary? …is there a third option which allows not blowing your budget, but remaining generic?

Naively, isolating the proprietary interface in a wrapper in your code minimizes changes should you need to move — and blowing your budget isn’t a long term solution.

So does it come down to the proprietary option or fail?
AFAIR that was loss of some features and some data.

It is rather concerning that these channels get blocked. For people to get a good perspective on the conflict, people should be able to see what is communicated.
Good article as a rebuttal. One caveat: the comparison between high-speed and conventional rail is overshadowing the privatization/market forces of the operators themselves. HSR will be invariably more expensive to run because the energy costs are much higher, but a lot of that price tag is — I assume — the profit margin of the private company. Public rail can run at cost, but private can’t.

> That's already the case for most of history. Many events were only written down centuries after the fact by biased historians. Even further back in time we can really only make vague guesses from archeological evidence.

And that's assuming you spent significant effort learning history on your own, acquiring knowledge from contemporary and past historians. If you're relying just on history lessons from schools, then that has an extra layer of political and cultural bias on top.

That extra layer is fortunately the easiest one to deal with - it peels off once you start diffing your history books with equivalent ones from a different country (or even from your own country, but couple decades earlier). But it still requires some investment (time, knowing another language), and hardly anyone tries it.
Computing in the actual storage banks seems a bit over-the-top to me, but I always wondered about computing in the "currently open row". It seems like an obvious optimization candidate for fast memset() and memcpy(), by setting that row from another source than the storage bank, selectively loading or storing it, and shifting its contents around.
But isn’t that their point? That their new neural network needs less prompt crafting because it is part better at reading intent and meaning of words and part less likely to hallucinate?

Sure, I also think GPT-4 can be brute forced with a very precise prompt into generating correct answers but that’s not how you would describe the problem to a human, and I assume the humans performing well in this test weren’t either, but given a fairly informal description of the exercise.

I'm always happy to see OSS contributions but I don't quite understand why this model is so remarkable. As the leaderboard suggests it's ranking lower than OpenAI embeddings, while 14 other contributions are even better than that. Many of which feature a comparable or lower dimensionality than 768.

The 8k context window is new, but isn't the 512 token limitation a soft limit anyway? I'm pretty sure I can stuff bigger documents into BGE for example.

Furthermore, I think that most (all?) benchmarks in the MTEB leaderboard deal with very small documents. So there is nothing here that validates how well this model does on larger documents. If anything, I'd pick a higher ranking model because I put little trust in one that only ranks 17th on small documents. Should I expect it to magically get better when the documents get larger?

Plus, you can expect that this model was designed to perform well on the datasets in MTEB while the OpenAI model probably wasn't.

Many also stated that a 8k context embeddings will not be very useful in list situations.

When would anyone use this model?
Maybe one of these ones?

Free runtime check of what? The point is that if nulls don't exist, there is no need for a "check". Runtime or otherwise. If I write a type that models Foo, I want it to model Foo and not "Foo or null". If I want to model "Foo or no data" then I use a separate type that makes my intention clear (in Rust spelled `Option<Foo>`). Languages where nothing is precisely Foo and everything is "oh by the way this is only possibly Foo" are deeply, deeply flawed.
I have seen two cars but we have an extraordinarily amount of roundabouts so plenty of samples. Those two was in a roundabout that is a bit straighter than normal roundabout so it is possible to turn the wrong way without too much hassle but you still have to be pretty unused to roundabouts to manage it.
It's just the default. Can't users change it? It's only "effectively a monopoly" because there's no interest among users in changing it.
Or just an engine explosion. These happen more often than you'd think, but they are usually contained; engines are built to try their best to withstand such events.

A notable recent exception was QF32. This incident came very close to ruining Qantas' zero-passenger-fatalities-on-a-jet-aircraft-ever streak. It started as an oil leak in engine #2, due to an oil pipe that was manufactured incorrectly. This then lead to an engine fire, and shortly after that, a turbine disc explosively disintegrated, launching three high-velocity fragments radially outward from the engine, severely damaging the aircraft, before the crew could even react to the fire.
Btw, that was 1998. Bill was ahead of his time.
I find that interesting because I've not run into a single scenario where I can't keep Ruby, so I'm curious where that's an issue for you. I suspect part of it is a different level of tolerance for wrapping tools instead of switching to their native languages. E.g. faced with "having" to use a Python project I'd be more inclined to wrap it in Ruby than writing Python.

As for concurrency, my default assumption in any language is to go multi process unless there is a measurable reason why that is too costly, because it means I can then generally scale seamlessly to multiple physical servers too when needed with nothing more than fork(), spawn(), and DrB or TcpServer once you want to farm it out across machines.

I used to render map tiles in Ruby that way, for example, and it scaled effortlessly to hundreds of cores.

Or to take another example: My text editor is fully concurrent and in Ruby - the buffers reside in a separate process and multiple concurrent processes, be it viewers/editors or utility scripts can simultaneously operate on the same buffer via DrB.
My own curiosity, what did they view so different? While I have read a number of translated texts I was unfortunately never exposed to stark differences.

You just have to realise that given enough scale everything turns proprietary anyway.

> OAuth also uses an “explicit grant type,” which is similar to “implicit grant type” but the server (randomsite.com) receives a code instead of a token and needs to make an additional request to Facebook to exchange it for a token. We’re using the implicit grant type example here because it is easier to understand and relevant to this post.

Are the first two attacks possible with explicit grant ? Wouldn't the auth server return an error if the client tried to request the access token with their secret and the code from another client ?
I was in Perth recently and walked to a cafe to get some lunch, and in this particular area, there were no footpaths at all.

I'm downvoted, but why? I'm simply making the obvious observation - that the river got this low 2000 years ago, but today the drop is blamed on climate change.

> the pictured carvings are on collapsed rock shelves, presumeably these were above normal river level when carved and in a two thousand year period the river has undercut the rock shelf and they've colapsed to below the usual river level.

You presume something that is not expressed in the article. There's nothing about the river undercutting the rock shelf and causing a collapse - that's an act of imagination on your part.

If you simply take out the political, environmental slant (out of the article, and your mind) and just look at what is stated, the most obvious conclusion is that every so often this river drops lower than usual. And that droughts, floods, etc have always been part of life on earth.

This story resonates with me so much. An avid cloud platforms user in the past, now I just use Dockerfile + fly.io combo. Dockerfile gives you a total freedom without vendor lock-ins and forceful deprecations. I have never been calmer and happier before that switch. Now, only I decide when to upgrade - and usually it is as easy as editing a text file pointing to a new package version.

IMHO, the only thing cloud providers are genuinely useful for is a bottomless data storage. But even that aspect is now isolated by Rclone in all my apps since migrating off the cloud. Apps just talk with the file system, which is then abstracted to a cloud storage of choice by Rclone.
Can't believe I missed that, especially for how off it seemed in the latter form. Thank you.
Ironic that it's an IT company doing this.
> The bonus of doing it manually for a while is that I found a lot of edge cases I would have missed otherwise. The initial release of the finished feature was rock solid thanks to what I learned.

This is one of the great benefits of doing things that don't scale. Reality has a surprising amount of detail, so to write code for a process you need to be an expert at that process. How do you become an expert at anything? You have to do it for yourself.
> They have no reasons other than budget induced apathy

I'm not sure that's the case - the UK police are rigorously judged on the amount of cases they solve. If it was a slam dunk they would have done it.
This would only come from someone who has never done or managed a migration at scale.

There are so many moving pieces doing any migration at scale, your code is the least of the problems.

I have seen it take nearly a year to migrate hundreds of generic VMs with VM hosted databases from on prem to cloud. You can’t get more generic than that.

Yes, this was with AWS Professional Services (where I use to work) doing much of the work.
A few years ago I worked at a company that lacked any form of CI/DF.
I set up TeamCity in a few hours and it was up and running, but
it did not see much adoption.

Then they had a super long internal project on how to improve
their development processes.

The code base was more than 90% .Net code on the back end.

The company decided they wanted to avoid vendor lock and
thus, they would not use Azure, and decided that AWS was the
best candidate.

My team was assigned to configure and set up the CI/CD pipeline.
After quite a lot of time, months, we had to admit that we
had failed.

The company hired an AWS expert who didn't get much done.
That person was soon gone.

At least a quarter has passed since it began.

The company hired 2 "elite", "top of the line" AWS experts.
They got it done, but it took them well over a month.

Afterwards it mostly worked.
I dont want to know the total cost but it was enormous.

Since they were a Microsoft shop, going with Azure would
have saved them a s*load of money, as well as time.

Since Azure integrates pretty with Visual Studio configurations
and solutions we would have it done in less than a month without
external help.

I set it up at a different shop and I spent a lot less than a month.

I can't make a judgement that Azure is technically better,
perhaps when it gets up and running it is a superior
solution, but for a .Net shop I would choose Azure again
the next time around.
> So in this case, would you want most internet traffick to be sock puppets that increase visibility for companies?

I might if it were only for the first few weeks/months of a totally new internet almost nobody except sock puppets was logging into. If there's nothing on the new internet, anyone who does log in will log out once they see they can't find anything.

> So if we do not want to have the entire internet be fake content pretending to be organic users, we should not want it for Reddit either

No one wants the entirety of reddit to be fake content, and thankfully it isn't because the founders could back off once they got momentum. Of course there are still sockpuppets on reddit, and the internet as a whole, but that doesn't mean there's never a time, a place, duration, or proportion at which they're acceptable.

It's kind of like saying: "You should never ever eat ice cream because of how terrible it would be if everyone on the entire planet ate nothing at all but ice cream for every single meal. We'd all get sick so clearly eating ice cream at any point for any length of time must be inherently wrong!"

Did you go buy a bunch of lottery tickets afterwards? Cops doing their job when you give them the entire breadcrumb trail is incredibly rare. I have many stories from friends and that I’ve seen online of the cops refusing to do anything even when you can guide them directly to the location of your stolen property.

I’ve personally experienced their lack of competency when they refused to follow up on stalking/harassment of a friend. They said there was nothing they could do even after I’d tracked down what free texting service was being used and gave them the abuse email address for law enforcement to use. They just straight up refused to do anything. Finally I was able to get my friend’s number blacklisted from the free text message service’s side to stop the abuse (the scumbag would change phone numbers every time he was blocked so we couldn’t just block the number). We even knew who was behind it and they wouldn’t do anything. And before you think this was mild he was sending 100’s of texts a day and calling multiple times. He also keyed the victim’s car but again, cops wouldn’t do anything about it.

Today the transliteration of names is standardised, yes. You can ask for a different transliteration on your passport if you really want, but there is one official (sadly lossy) conversion table used for everything government-related, from people's names to street names. Street names in particular can get silly when we have a street named after a foreigner whose name is spelled phonetically in Cyrillic, but then is transliterated back into Latin, e.g. various things named after James David Bourchier are re-latinised as "Dzhejms Baucher"; "Dzheyms Bautcher"; or "James Boucher". Technically the first one is "standard". At least the boulevard bearing his name is now "James Bourchier" in Google Maps. Maybe one of these days they'll also support our addresses properly...
You can't just declare yourself a "successor state". Also, generally speaking, the generally recognized successor states to the Joseon dynasty are North and South Korea.

Your designs are probably far better than ours in Australia. In Australia pedestrians have no right of way at roundabouts and pedestrian crossings aren't normally provided. Basically you cross at your own risk, and it's pretty risky at higher speed, multi-lane roundabouts.

This can all be easily be fixed by designing roundabouts with pedestrians in mind. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case in Australia.
