I'm originally from a quaint city in Brazil, where I developed a profound love for cooking. But, like many of you, I often found myself staring into the fridge, struggling to whip up something with the few ingredients on hand.

Fast forward to college life in the US, and oh boy, the struggle got real. Fewer ingredients, tight budget, and the classic student's conundrum: wanting to eat well without resorting to instant noodles every other day (not that there's anything wrong with a good old ramen night, but diversity is the spice of life, right?).

That's when the idea for Cookii sparked. Think of it as a pocket AI chef that crafts recipes based on whatever's lying around in your fridge. Yep, no more food wastage, no more repetitive meals, just delicious, AI-generated recipes tailored for your kitchen.

I'm super excited to share that Cookii is now in OPEN BETA! So, if you've ever faced the "what to cook with these random ingredients" dilemma, this one's for you.

Give it a try here: https://cookii.io and let's redefine our cooking adventures together. Your feedback is golden, and I can't wait to hear your Cookii-crafted meal stories!

Stay hungry (for innovation) and happy cooking!
>but because the mechanism by which they were generated would result in whole large classes of broken curves that academic cryptography and mathematics would have caught by now

I have a recent XPS 15 with nvidia graphics, 64gb of ram and 2tb ssd. That cost me about $1,500 including upgraded drives myself. But spec out a 14" Macbook Pro this way and it's easily 3,800-4,000. I don't need something second hand cheap, but I don't want to pay $4,000 either.
That’s par for the course for the Long Now. It’s basically a bunch of rich folks circle jerking themselves as a hobby.

Don’t get me wrong: love the goal. Practically tho it’s basically just nerd hobby projects
And this is just something you've decided is true or...? One sensor with determinate output based on an input from a finite set, sure I won't argue with you, but in any domain with indeterminate outputs coming from inputs that are of an infinite set, there is no meaningful notion of reaction time, there are imperfect decisions made with incomplete information at a moment during the dangerous spiral of number of possible responses shrinking and information completeness growing, (should I react now or wait until I have more information about how effective each of the dwindling number of path s available to me are shrinking) too name just one complexity.

I believe that we will get there and sooner than skeptics believe, but we are so far away from machines having driving skill equal to that of the average human driver, who happens to be driving while distracted 99% of the time.
It’s not an appropriate treatment for allergies though.

Additional Notification of 23andMe DNA Relatives Security Breach
We are following up on an email that we sent earlier this month regarding our ongoing security investigation. We learned that certain profile information – which a customer creates and chooses to share with their genetic relatives in the DNA Relatives feature – was accessed from individual 23andMe.com accounts without the account users’ authorization. While our investigation is ongoing, we believe the threat actor was able to access certain accounts in instances where the usernames and passwords that were used on 23andMe.com were the same as those used on other websites that had been previously compromised or otherwise available.

How does this impact you?
After further review, we have identified your DNA Relatives profile as one that was impacted in this incident. Specifically, there was unauthorized access to one or more 23andMe accounts that were connected to you through DNA Relatives. As a result, the DNA Relatives profile information you provided in this feature was exposed to the threat actor. You can see a full list of the types of information that you may have included in your profile here. You can view what information is currently included in your DNA Relatives profile and make changes here.

Based on our investigation so far, we believe only your DNA Relatives profile attributes were exposed.

What is 23andMe doing about this?
We are working with third-party forensic experts on this investigation, as well as federal law enforcement. We have also required all customers to reset their passwords.

Security and privacy are the highest priorities at 23andMe. We exceed industry data protection standards and have achieved three different ISO certifications to demonstrate the strength of our security program. We actively and routinely monitor and audit our systems to ensure that your data is protected. When we receive information through those processes or from other sources claiming customer data has been accessed by unauthorized individuals, we immediately investigate to validate whether this information is accurate. Beginning in 2019, we’ve offered and encouraged users to use multi-factor authentication (MFA), which provides an extra layer of security and can prevent bad actors from accessing an account through recycled passwords.

What should I do?
We encourage you to take additional action to keep your account and password secure. This includes the following steps:
Make sure your 23andMe password is not used for other accounts, meaning it’s unique to your 23andMe account.
Enable multi-factor authentification (MFA) on your 23andMe account: Adding 2-Step Verification To Your 23andMe Account.
23andMe is here to support you. Please contact Customer Care at customercare@23andme.com if you need assistance. You can refer to our blog post for future updates on this investigation.
Cruise vehicles have sufficient sensor payloads to produce a 'milimeter-level scanning of SF' with many fewer hours than they've been on the road there. I doubt that provides the biggest difference. It's all down the software at this point. Especially because they're not trying to do anything crazy like vision only.
I think they are using the LLM as few shot learner then using that to label the rest of the training data and finally using the now fully labeled data to train a more traditional supervised classifier like DistilBert.
His movies have really gone downhill since Next Friday-- I guess melting 2m/minute of snowpack has a different audience?

Right, that trend is worrying. Yet, everything is still made of atoms.

The people who complain about, Coded parts are people who don’t actually do any repairs. They just swap parts and they are having the issue of parts refusing to work.

Instead of replacing modules, you can repair parts.

Beneath the abstractions, everything is very simple and obeys the laws of physics.

You can’t actually encrypt glass, what’s manufacturers can do is just putting some chip to the components.
For many it does indirectly since it relieves sinus pressure.
And you can absolutely buy meth in a private sale without doing a background check. Now, the whole buying meth part isn’t legal - but the lack of background check is.

I wonder if there are any states where you can buy Sudafed privately from someone without an ID. Probably.
My favorite, 1 pound of honey is supposed to require 55k miles of bee flight.
If "Calories in, Calories out" is a myth then the Law of Conservation of Energy is repealed.

Wheee! Let's all start making those mythical Perpetual Motion Machines!

Obviously, the human body is designed (evolved!) to run on as little energy as possible when food is scarce. It does that by reducing (NOT eliminating!) its energy requirements.

That's why reducing your food intake doesn't necessarily produce a loss in weight: As long as you're taking in more energy than your body's minimum energy requirement, you won't see any weight loss because your body's reduced energy requirement has kept pace with the reduction in energy available.
I encourage you to commute daily via BART for 5+ years and come away with the impression that I am "exaggerat[ing] how often it happens".
>That's it. It's just slower, lower frequency.

Yes, a good perception (yours).

As a beekeeper, I "feel" these things differently.
It takes a while to start up though.
Have you heard of the DOS port of MicroPython?
It exists, but doesnt have the stdlib.
I have built a binary of python3.11 for DOS, but it will not work, because it cannot import the encodings module which is truncated because of 8.3, that issue is also present in rustpython-nofreeze.exe, but rustpython will still run.
I think it would acquire more usage if it was part of mainline Linux distros. As far as I can tell people must feel like this is some kind of optional, nonstandard thing.

It works well with openbsd because its standard, and most if not all openbsd packages make use of it

Though maybe I'm misunderstanding how Linux pledge works. I'm only familiar with the openbsd usage of it
Well, then, you can just read my comment again. Particularity & a third party outside of law enforcement would be two great places to start.
It takes time, education, and nuance to understand the horrors of the world. Exposing a mind to those horrors without any preparation cannot be healthy, ya?

Oddly enough they got rid of both Uber Pool and Lyft Shared in most cities. Definitely Boston, but also half a dozen other cities I've visited. It may still exist somewhere.

I wish they hadn't, because my commuter card works with the shared rides. So even if a shared ride was the same price as a normal Uber/Lyft (or even more) I'd do it just to be able to use the commuter card.
PPP is a stupid metric, especially in a country like China, with tofu dreg buildings, gutter oil, fake food, gym membership that could expire overnight with business and gym equipments disappearing overnight, electric cars that catch on fire and explode, etc.

Yes, all these things are real and googleable
One under appreciated benefit they have is the "eyes" on a Waymo car are mounted at the corners and high above the roof, giving it a much better vantage point that just sitting in the driver seat.
Not necessarily. You can't just build a high-powered microscope out of twigs and leaves. You need sophisticated manufacturing tools. Mineral resources. Where are we going to encode the knowledge of how to build or acquire these things, if already having them is a prerequisite for accessing any of our records? Either you can read it—i.e. it is intact and you have the means to access the information stored inside—or you can't.
> it's still available without a prescription, last I checked, it was just behind the counter/required an ID

Yes, which effectively makes it the same as needing a prescription because you can only get it if the pharmacy counter is open. Which is more restricted hours than the drugstore or grocery store itself.
What "older and larger" company do you have in mind? What ever you do, never choose CGM! They wouldn't even be able to spell "test" if their live depended on it! Nothing new ever works, like at all. Everything older needs at least one or two server restarts a day!
The City And The City (China Mieville). Two nations, occupying the same physical area, and occupants of either nation have been trained/socialized since birth not to see or interact with the other nation. If they do accidentally, for example with car accident that breaches the psychosocial barrier between them, they must 'unsee' it lest they risk an illegal breach themselves.

Sounds like the OP was in the United States of Silicon whereas pooping man was in the Democratic Republic of the Tenderloin. His g/f breached instead of unseeing it like any natural citizen of the US would have done.
You guys voted me to negative last week, when I suggested it's dumb that $1,000 Macbook Air consistently gets the faster chips six months before their really expensive models and people posting claimed chips always trickle up with semiconductors.

Now it turns out Apple agrees with me. I think they should upgrade the Studio as well though if they are going to upgrade the MBP's.
> If you legally have the same rights you are no longer an immigrant. You are "one of them".

Almost the same rights but not quite. You are also confining this issue to a purely legal standpoint -- my ability to travel the EU freely does not mean that I am Italian, for example.

edit: after rereading your comment, perhaps this passage refers to after I hypothetically take my citizenship. To answer that, I would consider myself then both German and an immigrant.

The point is, I do not identify as German, and Germans do not think I am German. I am influenced by German culture of course, having lived here long enough, but I am not strongly enough influenced to call myself German. I have younger siblings who are born here and have no memories of our family's homeland. I think of them as German, since they are in every way so -- they speak German, have German mannerisms and ideas, and do not understand a single bit of the culture of where I was born. They do not have German citizenship, but that doesn't matter at all since it's just who they are.

I hope this clears up my feelings on this topic.
It's a weird intersection of the War on Drugs, security theater and pharmaceutical regulation that brings out the worst of all three.
> We knew we had to fix joi to prevent this but given the scale of this issue, we had to do it in a way that will put a fix out without drawing too much attention to it — without making it too easy to exploit — at least for a few days until most systems received the update.

> Sneaking a fix isn't the hardest thing to accomplish. If you combine it with an otherwise purposeless refactor of the code, and throw in a few unrelated bug fixes and maybe a cool new feature, you can publish a new version without drawing attention to the real issue being fixed.

Jesus. That is not how vulnerability disclosure and zero-day management work in most projects for very, very good reasons.

If you're considering "sneaking out" a fix as part of a larger bundle of redactors, don't. Notify your users and prominent dependent projects, agree (with adults in the room) on how and where you'll perform coordinated disclosure, and take your lumps. To do otherwise is to basically guarantee that larger numbers of bad actors will be exploiting your issue earlier and in worse ways than you could imagine.
The title is very true and very often forgotten. Other advice is helpful too.

I've been part of interviews on company / hiring side for a decade now,and had hiring authority and lead interviews for half that time. Less than 10% of people ask any meaningful questions,and I'm not sure anybody ever came as prepared as the author suggests (while some interviews have indubitably been practice / uninvested ones, that's a given percentage only). At least for last 3-r years I've been actively inviting questions at multiple opportunities. At this point, asking good question at an interview is a meaningful data point to me because even will all of this advice, few people do it :-/
Ah yes, the "SEP field" from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, which makes things invisible (Someone Else's Problem)
For my curiosity, why "access_type=offline" as well as "scope=submit" for connecting accounts? I got the impression from your description that it just allowed "claiming" the user-id on portal.alien.top but your scopes seem to imply you're going to submit any content from portal.alien.top back into reddit as me
The adults in these childrens lives don't have the same level of access to these kids as the people on social media. Parents are only human, they can only be 'on' so many hours of the day. The phone and the neverending stream of toxicity is always there waiting for every free moment.
What insurance money is being locked? If a patient has severe symptoms then insurers will pay claims that meet medical necessity criteria for symptomatic treatment regardless of whether the patient has been formally diagnosed with "long COVID" or whatever.
Thanks for digging in and providing sources. The Vice article seems to have been updated to include that Cruise is contesting the narrative where they withheld the full video. It seems like this story is still playing out.

> In a statement, Cruise spokesperson Hannah Lindow disputed that Cruise failed to provide the full video during the first meeting with the DMV. “I can confirm that Cruise showed the full video to the DMV on October 3rd, and played it multiple times,” Lindow told Motherboard in a statement.
It's like in English the sound represented by "ś" in Polish "ściągać" and "sz" in Polish "szumieć" are the same sound (usually written "sh") :).
If I recall correctly, it was the resulting cash flow that needed to be laundered, and the potential of those operations to eventually result in the funding of terrorism, that was the alleged concern.
DO NOT CLICK this link! It contains Leonard Nimoy singing a horrible song about Bilbo Baggins, accompanied by an even worse music video. It's like the "Fichtl's Lied" video, if it ruined your entire childhood and everything you hold dear.
I dunno, a Hobbes cuddly toy sounds pretty cool to me. I'm not convinced a refusal to market at all is a good thing.
No, fears that leaving it available OTC would result in lots of people using it to make meth. Which, as far as I can tell, was a fantasy: yes, lots of people were using meth, but there was no real evidence that they were using OTC pseudoephedrine to do it. (And, as others have pointed out elsewhere in this discussion, there is no need to go through all the work of making it from pseudoephedrine when the Mexican drug cartels can provide it cheaper anyway.) Which makes the government's position rather like the old joke about the man who claimed to have invented anti-tiger dust:

Look at this wonderful anti-tiger dust I've invented?

But this is the USA, there are no wild tigers within thousands of miles of here.

See how effective my dust is?
In that case, probably a lot of external consultants. Plus that is just inherently a gigantic project with a million stakeholders etc.
This is on par with their history of competing with A-series: they’ve always been promising that their next-year flagship will be as fast as the last year’s Apple chip.

But even the “old” M1 is still amazing, so if this pans out it will be awesome. But so far Qualcomm has been in the business of quantity over quality, so they’ve always cut some corners that made their chips less than high-end. Are they’re serious this time?
My favorite design is the reverse of the current $2 bill.
Does Uber not fill this need today?
I would argue that your discernment angle is literally just that in a similar sense with how critical theory folks approach works from various sociological and literary angles to the extent you could say those are component to the same work rather than ever possibly definitive or representative, much less appraisable objectively as implicitly superior. Like dividing by zero. Its not answerable and also discernment seemingly is axiomatic to the point its basically no different from religion or palate/taste.
Because it's a lazy quippy one-word comment that doesn't really add anything to the discussion.
> There's no way to have E2E encryption that's strong against government overreach that doesn't also facilitate crime full stop

> There's no way to have cash that doesn't also facilitate crime full stop

Life is not black and white. You can have freedom enabling technologies like cash but you acquiesce to cash controls, maximum transaction amounts, personal searches if there is reasonable suspicion and so on. Same applies to e2e encryption or anything else. To think otherwise just in this case is a nonce move, you have not refuted my points in the slightest.
Yea I refuse to use libraries which use(d) the old typescript decorators.
> This is where all the complaints that it's too restrictive fall apart. When you do the math, there is room to stockpile and STILL take it daily...

And yet innocent people still get arrested and have their lives upended and/or ruined because they accidentally violated pseudoephedrine regulations.

When that's happening, it's because the regulations are too restrictive.
Yes, they are. Virtually every consequential interaction you have with the government ends up as part of the public record. You don’t have to do that via email, and if email is convenient then having two email addresses is not that difficult. There are well–known exceptions, such as library borrowing records, which are exempt and have been since long before email addresses were invented.
I know IP laws like copyright and trademarks are vilified because of how companies like Disney and Nintendo weaponized them but I appreciate how the spirit of the law is still kept intact when protecting things like Calvin and Hobbes.

Our alpha release is this week! We have pretty much everything in place for us to cut the tag and publish the first binaries. The next thing is to kick its tires a bit, we have some test repositories in mind for that. I reckon gittuf should be beta-ready after said tire-kicking for the workflows we're considering in gittuf's design, but we also want to learn more about folks' non-traditional Git workflows. We're always on the lookout for those, so if you have something like that in mind, please let us know!

Good video from Waymo covering these same points here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-Qu6HNZu8g
It’s probably exacerbated here by lack of walkable cities. Public spaces for teens. Etc
I can kinda understand the bad call on inflation; after all, inflation hasn't been a problem during the professional lives of virtually all policymakers today.

But how could anybody could have thought that the economy would tank, once we all got out from the Covid shutdown, plus the fact that the Biden stimulus bills just pumped $3 trillion into areas of the economy (like creating Solar Farms or building Fabs) which would immediately start creating jobs?
Well ... Now I want a "Calvin and Hobbits" cartoon strip!
