I wouldn't hold my breath too much. Before even talking about software and backward compatibility which is quite important for windows users (at least the one who are going to buy at high price/margins) it must be competitive from a performance standpoint.

If we look at what Apple has done with their ARM chips, outside of power consumption they rarely win on performance. It is mostly software optimized to use their specialized hardware compute block that get any advantage from Apple Silicon. Their ARM CPU are not that special, especially since they make it hard to sort CPU from GPU and other hardware co-processor. When you go look in detail in the various benchmark numbers you realize the CPU part performs at most like a mid-range laptop CPU.
And their GPU (that gets used to "win" some CPU benchmark) is weak when you consider the price but admittedly that is not going to be a problem for NVidia.

People say Apple successfully transitioned but it is mostly because they leave no choice to their customers. In other words, they do not have to compete. I doubt they would have sold much Apple Silicon desktop if those were to compete with equivalent Intel + dGPU machines; particularly considering the price premium.
Compared to the golden iMac era, it seems like they do not sell much of them in the first place, and it sort of makes my argument.

NVidia will not have this luxury that Apple has. They will have to compete on both performance and price. Apple did not really succeed; I doubt they will. But maybe their chip designers are so much better than Apple's or less focus on power consumption will allow them to unlock more performance from ARM.
But this is old history, and it seems to just repeat itself. Apple just went back to their Motorola "G" days where they pretend that they are competitive but in fact when you do run software that exists cross platform and is not unfairly optimized for the Apple platform it is rarely true.
NVidia won't be able to create a marketing spin around this and still sell their stuff at a massive premium. It is unlikely that PCs will switch to ARM because there are not that many benefits but quite a bit of hassle and cost involved.

It is like the rotary engine that has some advantages over traditional piston engines but in the end are very rarely worth the tradeoffs which is why it is stuck in niche applications (at best, mostly unused actually).
With all due respect to Warhol and friends, IMHO a tin of soup is a tin of soup. A cereal box featuring C&H is something we can all live without.

This is particularly true for comics, which have historically been seen as fodder for other industries in the US and need all the attention they can get as an art-form in their own right.
probably some subtle technical details

like "just" WASM as a target doesn't have many of the APIs build in without non trivial "magic" trics

and for WASI might be tricky to get the exact form of determinism they choose right

like they might need to provide a custom standard library which is viable but not very convenient to use and even less convenient to maintain (if it's just about custom build flags for the "upstream" standard library it's on the other hand quite easy but likely not good enough)

through that's purely speculative

but they might be lucky there is quite a bit of benefit for rust to have a deterministic wasm build target (for wasm based derives which if combined with cryptographic hashing of inputs form a potential building block for having a shared (potential public) derive binary artifact cache speeding up CI systems and similar and allowing more complicated/advanced derive usage without having to worry about the derive compliation time adding to the initial build time)

That is a potential problem Because at this point the user will still need good HTML/Selenium/coding knowledge to debug. We ran into the same issue using chatgpt generated scripts for ui.vision. Once a QA person has to figure out why some generated code does not work, it becomes a hassle and removes any initial advantage over the classic record & replay approach.

Sorry, I thought you were trying to get me to convert to some version of Christianity with your "Jesus forgives all if you ask" statement.

I'm actually of the opinion that Christianity held back humanity's development for at least a thousand years.
First of all, why don't you take a look at the median rather than the average.

Second -- if you're 65 your savings have got to last you for the next 20-30 years. Including often expensive nursing home care. Suddenly even a million bucks... isn't that much.

So no -- in general, they can't spare an entire twelfth of an investment. But more importantly, even if they want to, it should be up to them. Not somebody deciding for them.

The House of Lords has no capacity to stop legislation that the House of Commons is determined to pass. Only the capacity to delay it.

That's why an appointed chamber works. They have no mandate and no legitimacy to do anything other than suggest.

And which then stops the stalemate you get in other systems with multiple conflicting mandates.

The solution I see working (I live it) is separate bus lanes and regular commuter trains. Because I can work just fine (laptop and phone) sitting in that seat, what I cannot do in my car regardless of the noise/temperature/mates. But yes, I know people who drive to work because they enjoy driving. I instead enjoy my time gains (working while commuting is a significant time gain).

Like Christianity, I think there are a lot of important ideas in Ayurvedic wisdom, but I'm not convinced everything they have a word for exists. Enlightenment is another one.
The US has lists of random bad things, too, that seems like a very poor argument against using PPP.

It’s not a novel idea. At minimum, prior art is:

- Temporal / Cadence

- Amazon SWF

- Azure Durable Functions

Not even the web assembly part is novel - Temporal does that for several languages.

This seems to be a new implementation of an existing idea, and may end up being cleaner - that part is to be seen since there’s no actual product or code visible yet.
Great idea, thanks. Will do it.
This is amazing! to figure out the website apis has always been a huge pita. With our dlt library project we can turn the openapi spec into pipelines and have the data pushed somewhere https://www.loom.com/share/2806b873ba1c4e0ea382eb3b4fbaf808?...
Online tracking. Everyone knows, noone understands
There is a huge problem with tracking and online privacy. I personally think that we face a big social problem.

I have been trying to convenience my friends and colleagues for years... and still no one sees the problem with this intrusion. Maybe it is because people simply do not understand.

Today I found interesting short video about the topic. Never seen more clear approach to the topic than here:

https://youtube.com/shorts/oilFSaNurEc?si=EbwEiSLsoJy9H8rI
Just to clarify, Dagger is both declarative and imperative. Yes, you can use multiple programming languages which exposes an imperative API, but your pipeline DAG has to be defined using Dagger's SDKs which is has a declarative form.

I find the VCS way for notes to have too much friction for little benefit.

You could explore the Fossil's Forum or Wiki way for the notes. This offers the built in editor and some versioning too all without the need to do 'add/remove'.
We have to decide. It is the least bad system.

Far better we are all involved, even if just notionally, than have it handed down by self-appointed betters.

no way thats true, especially for strength training. it takes about 2 weeks of not training to feel like a packet of jelly. at least if you're like me and sit on the computer most of the day
My opinion: if it was this easy to make interviews completely pointless then they were completely pointless before AI.

Why would a random skill assessment be able to tell if you are going to be a good employee?
Your value isn't tied to you knowing a bunch of
random facts. We have the vastness of the Internet for that.

All AI has done is point out how useless our current interview process is.
To be honest I think the prestiege and the CV line item is the main motivation for the kids that solve these problems (beyond it just being an interesting problem of course). The existence of the cash prize probably works more as cheap PR, making sure news of the competition reaches them.

(I'm saying "$10k to your favourite charity" would work almost as well as "$10k for you").
When I was in college in the 90s, my friends and I would occasionally watch old Gumby reruns just for laughs, and we were frequently floored by how surreal it was. Gumby definitely had a weird vibe, and the animators weren't afraid to experiment. I can imagine it making some strong impressions on a child's mind.

TBH, a1111's SDXL support is still not very good.

You should be using Fooocus (which IMO has the best out-of-the-box quality), InvokeAI or ComfyUI for it instead.

> oobabooga rolls out support for new llama models

ooba is kinda different than a1111 under the hood. Its a big bundle of different LLM backends with as much common code hacked in as possible, while a1111 is the single, original SAI backend with a ton of features globbed on.

Technically ooba doesn't have to "support" any new models at a low level, thats typically the job of the backends. What it adds are new features and integrations.
I've been to Switzerland and it was _great_. Only had to grab an Uber a handful of times. However, Switzerland is like the size of the Houston metroplex. Getting to the corners of Switzerland seems like a problem on a different scale from the US.

I have 3 base passwords --- easy, moderate and difficult.

Easy is for junk I don't really care about. Moderate is for stuff I do care about but doesn't contain any personal info. Difficult is for things that involve personal info.

Here is the fun part --- I have a 4th category called "critical" for extra security. In these cases, I combine the difficult base with one of the other two and then add a special context character at the end to indicate type. For example, with banking/money related stuff, I'll add [$]. Also, the easy password can be spelled either forwards or backwards.

All together, I have about 40 different passwords that I use but I really only remember the 3 bases. Even when I am not sure, I can usually guess the correct one within 3 tries based on context --- the objective being to avoid getting locked out.

For example, if it is a banking website, I know from the context that it ends with "$" and it contains the "difficult" base.

Obviously not perfect but where security is concerned, nothing ever is.
The Generative AI Security Scoping Matrix
I will share one story from my life.

Last year I decided to lose weight (I lost 35kg / 70 pounds in 9 months). During that time, I also decided to start running. This year, once my weight stabilised, I started getting huge improvements in running performance (probably from not being on huge calorie deficit anymore). Little did I know, I completely outpaced my body's ability to strengthen tendons and got pretty serious injury in my foot.

I could not run for almost 2 months. Once I could walk (but not yet run) I started doing A LOT of walking. I got up to 2-3.5h of brisk walk (about 27k steps / 22km) every day and stayed there for a month.

When I started running again, I have noticed not only I did not lose any of my improvements, I actually was way ahead of where I would be if I kept running. It was as if my running performance kept steadily improving at a fast pace even with me doing no running.

I now use walking as part of my regular training and I regularly trade some walking volume into running or back, depending on situation. I had enormous running performance improvement (as measured by my ability to run fast and long at a specific low heart rate) and I attribute it to a large degree to high volume of walks (averaged 29k steps for the past 6 months, this includes running).

**

As to the topic of the submission, it is no wonder that walking offsets bad effects of sitting. For example, bad effects of sitting on our health include things like increased insulin resistance (this happens when you spend a long time not moving after a meal). When you go for a walk after a meal your muscles start consuming way more energy than when you are at your basal metabolic rate, not moving. This additional requirement for energy helps remove sugar from your bloodstream. This for your body is as if it was more sensitive to insulin -- it needs less insulin for a shorter time to achieve the same effect. And in fact muscle working IS more sensitive to insulin as it opens itself up to receive much needed energy sources.

Also training at low intensity (brisk walk for most people) is what athletes use to improve their mitochondria to improve their aerobic capacity. VO2.max has been found to correlate with longevity much more than even diabetes, smoking or even some cancers. It seems if you want to live long and healthy life you should strive to improve your mitochondrial health, aerobic capacity and low intensity aerobic activity that involves large parts of your body that you can do consistently every day, like walking, is the best way to achieve it.

I am now helping couple obese people help lose their weight. I asked them, rather than start running to just spend as much time as they can walking at a brisk pace. It carries much less injury risk. It is much easier to do consistently. It has much less overhead (you just walk out the door, no need to drive to gym). It is much more enjoyable and thus easier to stick to. It does not leave people in pain afterwards. And it has some additional utility -- you can walk places.

Learn of the dangers of online tracking at a Google website?
No. This is in the EU, and specifically Belgium. The claimant's name probably uses characters that are used in French as French uses diacritics and is an official language of Belgium.

So I suspect that the ruling really is that the bank should use a system that allows to correctly write the country's official languages, which seems quite reasonable.

Now under EU laws this would probably extend to EU languages, with the likely caveat that, I think, different alphabets are expected to be transliterated into the local one. E.g. Greek names are expected to be transliterated into the latin alphabet in Western Europe.

I am pretty sure that there is no expectation that people can use their names written in, say, Chinese characters as that is not reasonably legible.
Where's "disagreeing"? I'm not disagreeing with the authors of Dtl on anything...
CHD's also represent optical media, not just HDD's. For example the SEGA NAOMI arcade hardware was based on the Dreamcast. As such, GD-ROM was one medium for games. the GD-ROMs are dumped as CHD's.
When I started taking my daughter to daycare(1300 metres and ~15min with the stroller one way) I noticed a positive change - but it was mostly about loosening up my shoulder muscles and lubricating my joints - stuff that previously made all other activities surprisingly energy-consuming.

Cycling 2+ hours weekly on top of that was the real bump in fitness. It's still the bare minimum a person should be doing, but it's nice to finally be able to sit comfortably after all these years.

First weeks were rough though - it felt as if I was morphing into something else - something with a higher lung capacity.

Ok but I remember a few occasions where people have got off easy for being ignorant of the law.

I don’t want to be partisan but the most striking example I remember was when Comey weighed in on Secretary Clinton’s email server saying “there was no criminal intent”

If you’re ignorant of the law, you cannot have a criminal intent, or am I missing something?
Besides the obvious difference in execution engine which is explained in the link, I noticed the same thing and after doing some research, I found out that Temporal cofounder Samar Abbas was the creator of Amazon Flow Framework in 2009 and then the creator of the Azure Durable Task Framework in 2014, then moved on to Uber and co-created Candence with Maxim Fateev before they both eventually founded Temporal in 2019. https://www.temporal.io/about
I'm not working with any paint brand at the moment.
The reason for using real paint brands is that the app relies on the RGB encoded paint colors. Each branch has different names of similar paints and even paints with the same name have different RGB values. Thus, letting users to choose predefined paints looks like a solution.
I will add acrylic paints in the future. Didn't want to delay the launch of the app.
Free doesn’t seem like a great name for situations in which profit is extracted from a user in a sort of nebulous fashion.

> Not the original radio show buy a german language production, would be interesting to see where on the spectrum between original show and "radiofication" of the books those episodes were, I don't think they made that show before the books became a radiant success.

Wikipedia claims the German audio version was based on first six episodes of the UK radios series, and I do remember noticing that some plot points differed somewhat from the books (and then when I finally listened to the original radio series, I somewhat recognised those differing plot points again).

I hope that stories like this make people realise the rights that they have given up and start campaigning and voting to get them back again.

Terrorism laws are so obviously hugely disproportionate to what they allegedly protect against at this point.

Governments should balance two kinds of freedom. "freedom to (do as we please)" and "freedom from (others harming us)".

If these terrorism laws were really about protecting "freedom from" then they would also have a blanket ban on cars, guns, knives, alcohol and tobacco, all of which cause orders of magnitude more harm. Of course bans like that have been historically attempted and populations very clearly told Governments attempting to enforce them in which direction to fuck off to.

But these kind of abuses are a lot easier for people to ignore when they always happen to "someone else" but "probably will never happen to me".

I use the /proc file system all the time. Often containers don't have ps or several other tools installed, so you can use /proc to find out how a process started, open file descriptors, open sockets, and a bunch of other information. In fact, many user-space tools like netstat are just purpose-built readers of things in /proc.
I feel as if this kind of reporting is a bit daft.

For the most part people know what's healthy, it's somewhere in between being a marathon runner or powerlifter and being obese.

I feel that someone who seeks to optimise their exercise in this way is kind of missing the point. The healthiest older people I know don't metricise everything, they just incorporate things like hikes, generally walking, eating proper food etc into their lives.
