First, I wonder how you got access to the article? It is behind a
paywall and not yet uploaded to the sites I usually find paywalled
articles on.

Second, there is no need to compare brains to neural networks
because brains are neural networks. Neurons form vertices and axons
edges connecting the aforementioned. What you are perhaps thinking of
are artificial neural networks - most of which are very dissimilar
to brains. But even then you are wrong. Artificial Izhikevich and
Hodgkin-Huxley neural networks attempts to closely mimic the behavior
of real neurons.

While deep, hierarchical artificial neural networks have been more
successful than biologically plausible ones, that may be because the
technology isn't ready yet. After all, the perceptron was invented in
the 1950's but didn't become prominent until the 2010's (or
so). Perhaps we need new memories that better map to (real) neural
network topologies, or perhaps 3d chips that can pack transistors in
the same way brains pack neurons.

> However, the Zimaboard specs claim to be using Realtek 8111H. Maybe they changed the design recently?

D'oh! You are absolutely right, I am not sure from where I got Broadcom for ZimaBoard. Probably because I conflate BCM and RTL as both being "bleh" quality (OK for light in-band management, but no serious workloads)? Weak excuse for the inaccuracy, though.

I OTOH, took a dump in the woods and noticed the entire top of the pile was fresh blood. Freaked out. Started paying attention and saw some evidence in the toilet a couple times. Called bunch of drs the following monday, setup an apt with digestive dr, took 4 weeks to see him, and another two before the colonoscopy and a bunch of tests. By then, nothing no idea where it came from, no evidence of anything.

"Probably hemorrhoids" and $1200 out of pocket after insurance.

And people wonder why no one goes to the Dr in the USA before they are 1/2 dead.
Most university math curriculums have a clear demarcation between the early computation-oriented classes (calculus, some diff eq.) and later proof-oriented classes. Traditionally, either linear algebra or abstract algebra is used as the first proof-oriented course, but making that transition to proof-based math at the same time as digesting a lot of new subject matter can be brutal, so many schools now have a dedicated transition course (often covering a fair bit of discrete mathematics). But there's still demand for textbooks for a linear algebra course that can serve double-duty of teaching engineering students a bag of tricks and give math students a reasonably thorough treatment of the subject.
Thanks for that - never heard of Ennigaldi-Nanna's museum before. Amazing to think that ~2,500 years ago, they had artifacts on exhibit that were already ~1,500 years old at that time. And labels in three different languages - all they were missing was the audio guide!
Seeing it emulated shows you how amazing the art direction is - it scales extremely well and it's indisputable how beautiful it looks.

One the hugest misses of Nintendo to be honest. The art styles they develop are designed to scale down to their hardware, but they also scale way up and they never provide you an official way to take advantage, even on future hardware. The art team is being done a bit dirty in this respect.

This is the reason I won't pay for youtube red. It doesn't do what it says. It says "ad-free" but only filters some of the ads. It's literally false advertising. It's doubly frustrating because youtube can easily fix it if they want. They would just like the extra money.

> A particular case I have is where there is a draft bill put out for industry/community consultation. Quickly diffing the releases is the goal but for now usually relies on one (preferably two) subject matter experts to read the whole thing top to bottom to build an understanding. I don't think these would be available via the means you've secured. They are usually hosted on a relevant government entities website as PDFs

It's possible that they're in my database. I have included the as made version of all bills on the Federal Register of Legislation. However, if they haven't had a first reading yet, then probably not.

For processing PDFs, I recommend using `pdfplumber`, which is what I used to build the Corpus. Happy to discuss further if you'd like.

> One last question/comment, have you considered adding some additional reference info like the federal list of entities?

Do mean adding additional metadata? At the moment, I've kept the number of metadata attributes as low as possible. Every attribute added equates to more work to keep it standardised across all the jurisdictions and document types. My plan is to slowly add more attributes as I have time. I'd really like to associate a date with documents but even that is a hurdle. I have to decide what date should be the date of a document (is it the time it was issued, the time it was published, the time it came into force, the time the latest version was issued, etc... and what happens when a document doesn't have a date? should I extract it from its citation? how do I preserve time zone information? etc...).
Not really. Tbh I like to gut these people. Most of those who belittle-berate others are weak people, they compensate for something. Once I give them some treatment, 99% percent backs off, because they don't like the barrage of insults/whatever.

I never said we are entitled for anything. I don't like that oss developers get paid nothing and have to - seemingly - beg for sponsorhip/money. But the open source model was ugly from the get go. You build something up, decide to abandon it, and people fork it, expropriate it, and the original dev is forgotten. They get nothing. The actual guy, who maintains it might get something in the future, but who created the foundation - since he left the project - gets nothing. Ridiculous.

The open source movement/idea is flawed and needs to be changed, that's all.
Google does not sell your data. Your data is their most valuable weapon, they use it to target ads. They wouldn't sell it for anything, it's more valuable to them to hold it.
A vacuum tube in an amplifier is more of an electron attenuator than it is an accelerator. The electrons don't actually gain any energy in these vacuum tubes past the energy they have when emitted. They still travel at the same "speed" that they normally would around an atom, the only difference is that they are freed from the atom. Acceleration is not part of what an amplifier tube does.
This is Crack-Babies 2: Fentanyl Boogaloo

“Six individuals born after pregnancies complicated by multiple drug exposures, including fentanyl shared physical and facial features suggestive of a novel syndrome. “

So in other words, it could be fentanyl…

Or possibly the other drugs…

Or possibly the combination of drug exposure…

Or a contraindicated drug reaction between the non-prescription drugs…

Or and just stay with me now… possibly because of some unknown chemical used to “cut” the non-prescription drugs they were talking… because in case anyone hasn’t picked up on it… this one of the polite clinical ways of saying without calling them criminals… that these mothers acquired one or more drugs illegally for their own purposes be they pain relief or recreational getting high.

I’ll say it again, this is some sloppy “crack baby” shit, and they should be extremely careful about what they are saying due to current fentanyl related psychogenic hysteria and not writing up their research in such a way that it unethically fans the flames of inappropriate public health outcomes when they have a cherry picked sample size of fucking 10 and nothing more certain than self reported drug use histories.

The overwhelming majority of game reviews address the content of the games, but there are reviewers that concentrate specifically on graphics performance because the difference between a low end and high end gaming PC can easily be $3k+, and half that is in the GPU nowadays. People use articles like this to decide what to buy to get the optimal experience in games they want to play, not which games they want to play in the first place.

Alan Wake 2 merits specific consideration on this front because its system requirements seemed to suggest it wouldn't even be playable on a lot of popular configurations.
Not impossible, you gotta spice it up. Don't just say "I love Barbie" say "I love Barbie for its loud, brash feminist message and absolutely masterful set props to portray the Barbie world". There, you still watch Netflix but you show you think deeply about the media around you and get out your political philosophy without making it sound like you only think in politics.

You should probably pick up other hobbies, but a lot of everything in life is all about presentation. You kinda need to do the opposite for tech a lot of the time unless you are specifically going for a tech oriented partner; don't describe your job as you would to a co-worker ("I'm a software engineer who works on the pathfinding algorithms in Google maps"), but give a quick elevator pitch ("I work at Google and I help figure out your destination"... and sure insert some zinger if you're clever).
A good lesson for employees with these kinds of deals to have the signing bonus agreement reviewed by their own counsel to point out these potential scenarios. Something like "fired if you don't perform" should be spelled out unambiguously in the contract and not be subject to being defined later.

Any contract for $100k is probably worth a few hours of a lawyer's time to review it.

I think that what previous poster is pointing is that technical documents as epub are often difficult where they're no textual contents. Images may be the easiest case. Things are a bit more clunky when code source are involved and it's weird with complex formulas.
At a certain scale, you can no longer say "it's just business".

YouTube is where people go to post and upload videos. YouTube has a dominant place in the market and in people's minds.

Does it cost money to run? Yes. Does Google deserve to have those costs covered? Yes. Should Google be entitled to abuse their dominant position? Certainly not.

I do feel bad for who high-quality creators are not able to make ends meet, but I have zero sympathy for a business the size of Google.
Color me too unsympathetic, Frankly I've been stream ripping them with yt-dlp for quite a while now. I'm motivated to do more of that now.

It's one thing if Google were demanding I watch their ads to get the free video in exchange, but it is not an honest broker, because it doesn't vet the people it allows to advertise with it thoroughly enough to prevent scams and everything else from slipping through.

And frankly i'm taking a moral stand as well by blocking their ads, I refuse to allow Google to profit off of scammers in my or my families name.

ackphtttt with those typos. btw. fixed.
This feels like such a dogwhistle for blaming women for getting educated and wanting more.

Sheryl Sandberg criticized women in her book, Lean In to not pick a career based on if it would be good for having children when you weren’t even in a relationship. But so few of us can afford outside help and we can see that for most het couples that work is gonna fall squarely on the woman.

There are many people that want children or more children but doesn’t have the resources for them. Why not pay every parent 10k per child until the child is 10 years old? Subsidize fertility treatment? Work to make the corporate world more family friendly?

I know the author claims that those with the best quality of life still have low birth rates, but what are those societies pushing?

You're picking and choosing facts to verify your confirmation bias and literally stating that.

> As for Al-Ahli bombing, I don't trust IDF on that one.

The IDF provided multiple different sources one of which were obtained by al-jazeera. It included recorded calls, missile and bombing information. Pictures from the ground that showed the impact. This was then reviewed by both foreign press (not just NYT, also CNN and other sources) and by the USAs defense department. All concluded that Israel told the truth.

Israeli bombs are accurate. Israel would have no motivation to bomb a hospital and doesn't bomb a hospital where it KNOWS the Hamas is headquartered.

The fact that you explicitly still choose not to believe the facts shows that you made that deep choice. I suggest you re-evaluate that.

Yes. Israeli settlements are terrible. Israel did do a lot of bad things in the past too. But there are no settlements in Gaza. In this particular point in time Israel isn't perfect, but you shouldn't let past biases dictate the current situation.

> As for my argument around Gaza destruction, that's refering to the final state (not the current one).

So besides judging Israel in general, you also judge it for crimes it will commit in the future?

Are you reading what you're saying???

Not a single word included anything against how terrible the Hamas really is. How it places its own people in danger, how it treats its own civilians in times of "peace". Nothing?

Israel did and probably will do bad things. Blaming it for stuff it didn't do damages the cause of protecting the Palestinian people. Facts matter, it's a fact that the Hamas is a racist, murderous organization. The IDF has its faults, but it is ultimately accountable for its actions and usually does provide well documented information that complies with international law.

Wasn’t a similar but worse version of this common in laptops 15ish years ago? You often had the option of running two batteries instead of 1 and a CD drive because they had interchangeable slots.
The hexagonal metric at the end uses pi in its definition - is this our value of pi, or the value of 3 that that metric provides?
What I was pointing out was that you can actually see the fact that the hard drives are designed to be replaced as a positive rather than a negative. It means that the data can be moved from drive to drive without much hassle.

> Intel NICs have had similar problems. One of my circa 2010 servers had the NIC lock up in such a way that passthru traffic to the IPMI was blocked preventing remote management access. I drove 3.5 hours to the data center to power cycle the system. Investigation eventually turned up an errata for exactly that issue. Suffice it to say that I decommissioned that server as soon as I could.

In the past life of being a SysAdmin, we strove for independent OOB NICs whenever possible specifically for this sort of edge case. And then used switched type PDUs (instead of just metered) so that remote power-cycling was possible for the eventuality that the IPMI controller had an OOM and no incantation of `ipmitool` would suffice (<caugh> iDRAC <caugh>).

Sounds like you weren't able to get all those nice things. Unfortunate. Been there.

Ask HN: Do you watch adult content on your corp laptop/phone?
This topics came up at a party and I was kind of shocked to learn a bunch of friends who work for the fruit computer company all said they regularly watched adult content on their corp machines. Not at work of course (although I didn't ask that) but at home/travel, etc...

I was throughly surprised. I'm wondering if anyone is willing to answer and I don't know the answer for the employees at the company I work at but still, it's kind of shocking to me. Maybe it shouldn't be? Maybe it should be ok to watch adult content on corp equipment?

I'm not against adult content in any way. Rather, I'd prefer my company not have a record of what I watched and I'd prefer it not to be in my browser cache etc, ready to be discovered.

thoughts?
Prime Video will still have an ad free tier. Having a cheaper tier that is subsidized with ads allows for more people to be able to afford it.

You're welcome to include full sources, or not-tied-to-git directions to acquire them, with your release binaries.

Regardless, whether or not you do that is a discussion of distribution format, not binary reproducibility. Your distribution can contain as much (or as little) additional material as you like along with your release binaries.
You're talking sense, but this is due diligence for a developer, not for an operating system or a package manager.

You're free to map your package definitions to the commits they contain and verify any signatures that you find there, but that process will have nothing to do with whether other people have signed the instructions that your machine follows to fetch and build the contents of that commit.
We have solutions for those problems on Earth, the difficulty is implementing the solutions. And that's a political and sociological problem, not an engineering and logistics problem. The engineers and logistics people can work on Mars while the politicians and sociologists work on Earth.

(Not to mention that solving Mars problems are likely to yield novel solutions to Earth problems, ones which we might never discover without thinking about things with an unusual perspective.)
While I agree to an extent, to me the larger issue is that Youtube has become the default video hosting platform with no real competition.

I adblock everything but I am sympathetic to the idea that video hosting costs money. But I watch, on average, less than 1 hour of Youtube videos a month, so paying for Youtube makes no sense. Plus I have issues with privacy (part of the reason I've never created a Youtube account). The videos I do watch on Youtube are short ones for a specific need: e.g., a company showing me how to install their product in an easy way (I'd prefer a write up, but sometimes those are so bad you need to rely on a video), or a simple how-to on changing the battery in X model of car. So when I do need to go to Youtube for something, often its because the video is nowhere else. People don't even think of hosting it elsewhere. I don't watch any long form stuff there, don't listen to music there, etc., so paying for premium makes no sense.

I wish there was a free and open video platform that had a funding model like Wikipedia, where people could upload things that they had no intention of "monetizing".

That seems pretty implausible. Some people have low fertility and others have high. Over time low fertility sub-populations will become less common and high fertility groups will become more common. That's just evolution. It's normal for a population to vary up and down a bit.

The future will look like Africa and South America becoming more populous and sending people to North and South America to work taking care of the elderly low fertility folks who have no children to take care of them. I don't know the details about Asia, but probably a similar pattern.

That type of thing plus MAID to get rid of the elderly that we can't care for - I highly doubt population will decrease. That's just not what evolution does.

"They are free to ignore any request I shout at them"

I don't have any opinion on, nor care about their latest announcement to do with their hardware as they please. Their announcements are theirs and of no concern of mine. It's just a random website the has content duplicates available at a hundred more places. Bing video search has fifty times more results than youtube for example for any item I search.

Given that, of course, they're always going to show me their videos, because about a day after whatever change they make, software (that runs on my computer against my data) will catch up. They've made changes like this many times over many years. For about a week awhile ago the ads were not blocked and I stopped clicking youtube videos and just typed the title into bing and in 5 seconds played the same video from another source. Worked 100% of the time.

Sorry if that's not the gotcha you were going for.
Oh good. So you do admit that there are useful parallels between signal processing, statistical processing, and the brain.

Gold can be easily melted to combine larger and smaller portions together or split them up. It is "inert" meaning does not easily react with anything else so you don't lose it too easily. It is a great store of value.

And think why does Bitcoin cost so much? Because of its scarcity.
