Just gotta market it right. Maybe section off by length of marriage and dissolved by death or divorce.

A 60 year marriage, ended by death of one spouse shouldn't be unlucky. Especially if it was actually the death of both spouses in some tragically romantical way.

Ah, very interesting.
One thing with using graphic tablets for handwriting and drawing in practice is you really want your stylus to be thin, lightweight (15-20g), and have either neutral center of gravity or balanced towards the tip slightly. Also preferably battery-free (non-Wacom tablets were forced to use batteries due to patents, not anymore).

Until it's solved, the better practical use for this is probably a controller for VR or 3D software.

Not in my experience. Reputable chipmakers are as important as they ever have been. "Westernized" supply chains are a selling point to investors.

Regardless, Nordic leads the space because their firmware libraries are best-in-class, and their documentation and support are least-terrible-in-class. The hardware has never been the most sophisticated (or the cheapest) in the segment. ex: until the nRF5340 came out, SiLabs blew them out of the water architecturally, but SiLabs' development tools are a tire fire so it doesn't matter.
If a large part of the size is essentially the trained weights of a model, how can one reduce the size by orders of magnitude (without losing any accuracy)?
Haha, yes indeed. It'll be the free-range eggs equivalent for buying jewelry. Ethically farmed from happy wedded couples.
Usually, the VP pick shores up support among a specific coalition. E.g. Trump picking Pence to shore up support among traditional evangelicals. But Biden was already far more popular than Harris among black voters. The campaign seems to have expected “first black woman VP” to carry weight, even though Harris had little pull among actual black voters. It’s quite distinct from traditional vice presidential box checking.

To map that to the movie analogy—Marvel isn’t making a big deal about the first Muslim super hero to make the movie popular among the 1% of the country that’s Muslim.

I'm not sure about Italy, but capitalism is alive and well in the US for better or worse. Our political, economic, and social systems are all largely driven by an end goal of creating and hoarding capital for the sake of capital.

We may not have free markets anymore, but we have capitalism in spades.
Giving third party shops official parts would still preclude the ability to enforce anti-theft unless you also gave them the software to pair it, and then you’ve once again precluded any ability to enforce anti-theft.

Apple needs to know what hardware is going into a particular phone to implement the killswitches, which means it can’t be handled as bulk inventory. They will sell you hardware that has been paired to a specific phone, but they’re not going to not have pairing (which is legally mandated for anti theft, over the objections of hardware vendors at the time) and they’re not going to hand out the ability to bypass the anti theft by signing your own keys.

Could they come up with some license-based model where the cpu wants to see apple attestation that the part is not stolen etc, perhaps, but, it’s not a trivial problem either.

> apple do this to sell you phones instead of phone parts. if any of what you're saying was true it's simply a happy accident.

Apple literally will sell you the parts though. How does that fit into your supposed “plot to force you to buy whole phones instead of parts”?

People are silly. About apple and nvidia and a couple of other companies in particular - there is a real thing with negative parasocial attachment to these brands, people love to hate them.

The LW version of the phrase is the idea that oftentimes a seeming solution fails because it hasn't been tried hard enough; by doing it even harder it becomes effective.
Comic book movies seem to be dethroning themselves. Super Mario coincidentally being #2 at the box office would be the sort of tipping point for the studios to hungrily eye an alternate source of IP to adapt. (https://www.boxofficemojo.com/year/world/2023/ - I will concede that FNAF is all the way at #18, which isn't very impressive).

I mean, they're already greenlighting nearly twenty Mattel based projects just because of Barbie (https://www.insider.com/all-upcoming-movies-mattel-toys-barb...), it seems like Hollywood hasn't come a long way from the video's intro anecdote about how the original Batman movie ushered in a wave of adaptations of retro pulp heroes, rather than the more naturally lucrative choice of comic book adaptations. So who's to say they won't look at the similar success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie and mine video game IP for adaptations?

At the same time, I think that other than for Daniel Kaluuya's 'A24-Type' Barney movie, most of the Mattel projects are not even going to see the light of day. It's a much more limited IP vein and once there's a box office bomb or two, the studios will quickly put the kibosh on the outlandish idea. Battleship, for instance, didn't exactly unleash a huge trend of board game movies.

Outside of the theaters, The Last of Us being a huge hit and a critical darling would seem to indicate that after decades, we might finally be seeing the end of the video game adaptation curse. The fact that there are any quality video game adaptations now, let alone successful ones, is itself a sea change. And as the video theorizes, maybe this isn't 2008 so much as it's the early '00s when the original X-Men and Spider-Man adaptations came out. A sign of the shift that is to come. But I firmly do believe it so to come. There are far more video games than there are Marvel/DC superhero properties. More genres, even.
I’ve lived here nearly 50 years, and even had a Lake Shore Drive address for a few years. LSD isn’t very common at all in my experience. Cabbies in particular all say “Lakeshore” or “Should I take Lakeshore?”. Same with traffic reports on WBBM etc. Everyone who lived in my building said “<numbers> Lakeshore” when asked where they lived.

My wife and I had a pretty expensive wedding. You could buy a nice car for that amount. It wasn't supposed to be that way.

But we were living in Europe at the time, and the wedding was going to be in Maryland, so we had to get a wedding coordinator to make it go well. And she introduced us to florists, chefs, photographers, etc....

She helped make that wedding the best it could possibly be, and I don't regret any of the money we spent. Nor does my wife. That was one of the best events we have ever participated in, and over the decades we still get positive comments from our friends who were present there.

So, yeah. It was a lot of money. But we feel it was money well spent.

That's the whole idea. There is no secondary market for diamonds - it's not a scarce resource. Scarcity is completely artificial, combined with decades of marketing campaigns.

"Diamonds are forever". Yeah, they are - because once you buy it, you can't really sell it to break even, let alone make a profit. Gold has natural market price fluctuations at least.
I must say that as far as I'm concerned, Nix is very much emblematic of simpler technology. Nix tries to solve problems (such as build impurities) very much by trying to fix things at the source (and contributing back to upstream!), rather than slapping things that work on top of each other, mindlessly using magic like containers. That's one of the reasons why I adore nixpkgs, that they have heroically attempted to fix problems in packages at their sources, and have very much succeeded.

> Quality of the findings is orthogonal to asking for compensation

This is a terrible take. Orthogonal to having a reputation, sure. Orthogonal to having a particular certification or credential, absolutely. But quality is absolutely non-negotiable. If your work is bad and nobody asked you to do it then you’re not a professional, you’re a charity.
Capitalism is dead, long live Uber-Capitalism

It has been distilled into a more pure form and thus is another step removed from its base ideology and has become its own justification.

ie. Question: Why? Answer: Because capitalism

Where it used to be:

Question: Why capitalism? Answer: Because incentive structure to maintain a society

eg. The prevalence of overt user hostile function and design choices. These are in servitude of capital, not in servitude of customers or function. Capital as the ends justfying any means.
So that means we need a Capitalism: The Good Parts to teach us to stay away from the bad parts!
Nobody can tell a lab grown diamond vs real by eye. They are the same. With the right lab equipment you might be able to tell the difference through some fluorescence or other very hard to perceive property. Honestly, what gives away lab grown diamonds is probably the lack of inclusions which mean they are "too" perfect.

No, this invites emotional manipulation and abuse: "do/don't do this or you'll make me unhappy".
Since software is not patentable in the EU [1], I assume programmers and software companies in the EU can safely ignore this patent pool?

[1] The European Patent Convention [..] excludes from patentability [..] programs for computers [as such]. If a program running on a generic, off-the-shelf computer, with no special hardware, is not excluded, then those words are wholly without meaning - "programs for computers" could be deleted from the text of the law, and its meaning would not change. Given that it was surely not the intention of the legislators to include meaningless text in the law, the only remotely reasonable conclusion is that software, and these codecs, are not patentable in the EU.

A variation is when the community limits its growth (such as by being invite-only), and eventually transitions directly from stage 1 to stage 5.

In one real-world example of 1->5, I thought that the transition to stage 5 was because growth was limited too much: that stage 5 happens when insufficient new people keep joining.

But I haven't seen enough examples to generalize that much.
I have pretty extensive personal experience that this is not true.

Any time the resume actually matters (i.e it’s not just a formality during a personal reference application), resumes that are formatted in a standard and machine readable way, don’t use columns, don’t rely on graphics, and hit on the required keywords that match up in ATS systems that’s matching against the job description are going to immediately filter to the top. After that, font sizes and formatting choices that make your resume human scannable and easily referenced help. Even giving your screener margins and space in your resume to write notes or annotate your resume can help a lot. The “in your own words” then finally comes into play once somebody actually reads it after it’s passed 5 prior filtering events.

Playing the game matters a lot when you’re competing with hundreds of other resumes, recruiters and hiring managers are going to spend a few seconds on each one before rejecting it 90% of the time. Getting your resume read is the real challenge.

"So “single antibiotics don’t work for chronic Lyme but cocktails do and this wasn’t realized for decades” isn’t an unprecedented story. It could turn out that way."

Also, properly, multi-drug therapy for HIV is less "More Dakka" in the way of some other examples, and more "Different Dakka". Massive doses of any given antiretroviral don't solve your problem.

"This didn't work, have we tried more of a drug, or just more drugs" are two different treatment approaches.
capitalism will live forever as a component of whatever it is the chinese do
He's indicting the Chicago school and rightly so because the academic priesthood condoning vampiric, unrestrained, hyperindividualist capitalism sleepwalking civilization into existential threats of collapse is broken. Strong regulation, collective bargaining, employee ownership, and more nonprofit social ventures in lieu of for-profit so-called "public private partnerships" are some of the paths that must replace unrestrained, unregulated externalities being dumped on others because it's more profitable than doing the right thing™.

One of the most pressing problems is private equity with too much money and too much power buying up everything and anything in order to rent it back to us for more money because they can and because of said too much money and too much power and nowhere else to park it.
I don't think you can reduce size without losing accuracy (though I think quantized GGUFs are great). But the 2 MB size here is a reference to the program size not including a model. It looks like it's a way to run llama.cpp with wasm + a rust server that runs llama.cpp.

I like the tiny llama.cpp/examples/server and embed it in FreeChat, but always happy for more tooling options.

Edit: Just checked, the arm64/x86 executable I embed is currently 4.2 MB. FreeChat is 12.1 MB but the default model is ~3 GB so I'm not really losing sleep over 2 MB.

> People with wives should tie their own happiness to their wife's, shouldn't they?

I think it's more that the expectation that husbands exist to serve their wives is harmful.

Be honest, do you really think a phrase meaning "keeping your husband happy and satisfied would make your life better" is not harmful?
What should matter is how many lives are lost and how many are saved.

But the trolley problem shows that in practice we care more about whether we were the one to throw a switch than the cost in human lives of our decision.
> Approximately 80% of the income of traditional capitalist conglomerates go to salaries and wages, according to Varoufakis, while Big Tech’s workers, in contrast, collect “less than 1% of their firms’ revenues”.

This doesn't sound right to me, but if it is Varoufakis has a point.

Our contract, such as it is, with traditional capitalists is they employ many, produce some sort of value and keep as much profit as they can manage after labor and expenses.

If the Amazons and Googles of the world can generate their enormous revenues (and profits) without dispensing much of it to labor, essentially just collecting large rents in perpetuity, both traditional capitalists and workers are in serious trouble. That is a big shift.

Every so often Apple does something I don't like, or else I take a look at current iPhone prices, and I toy with the idea of switching to a Pixel for my next phone.

But inevitably, within a week or two, Google will do something that makes me uncomfortable relying on them for any piece of hardware that I'm likely to keep for 3+ years.
I was always under that assumption, how else is it supposed to work without storing things? Why would it delete your phone book and message log every time you disconnect? The way you delete it on basically every infotainment system ever is by removing the device from the pairing menu.

Basically, the lawsuit found that this is exactly the same concept as syncing your phone's messages to your laptop or a personal device like that, all on local storage. The fact that the car doesn't protect the data isn't all that alarming: plenty of people have unprotected data sitting on their laptops and flash drives. Again, this isn't cloud storage or Internet-connected services here, this is old world Bluetooth phone calls and texts infotainment.

> The class-action complaint contended that "text message and call log data copied onto the vehicle can be, and is, transmitted to users of Berla's equipment without requiring any kind of password, biometric, or other security measure." The complaint pointed to a 2017 CyberScoop report that quoted Berla CEO and founder Ben LeMere as saying his firm was working with carmakers to educate them on securing private data, but only "when it's part of an agreement that they will allow law enforcement in."

> A Ford court filing said that making a vehicle containing an infotainment system does not create liability under the state law "any more than selling computers and smartphones to purchasers who make and record calls and store texts on their devices. Any recording in this case was done by Plaintiffs, or by the system itself, which resides in a vehicle they own or use."
You've still created a tangible product, that someone gets utility value out of, and they could potebtially resell if needed.

The good itself is produced by employees, has material inputs from suppliers, contributes to the economy in other ways.

By comparison, thefts of Samsung products increased 51 percent in the first five months of 2014, compared with the same period a year ago, the report said.

The Amazon case in this article seems to fall flat in the same way the Apple as Monopoly argument does. It works only if you ignore the fact of categorical choice (Android in the case of Apple). No seller is forced to sell on Amazon, as demonstrated by the thousands of Shopify and Etsy-hosted sellers out there. Yes, within the world of Amazon, Amazon sets the rules, but if the users leave, so will the sellers.

Shopify, Instagram, TikTok, Magento and the dozens of other ways to sell goods online offer an alternate path, and while Amazon may dominate today, tomorrow is never certain.

Pretty much this, capitalism seems to have won out most everywhere. Not sure we really had free markets, free ish maybe. It's the ish that causes warping such that countries tends to put in place control levers.

why is this so absolutely normalized? every single android user seems to have this dripping hatred for half of the population, and only waits for the perceived “proper company” to let the mask drop. Why is that so utterly normalized for android users?

Obviously the fact that it’s normalized is self-reinforcing, people do it because they see other people doing it and it’s routinely allowed and tolerated. I will probably get my knuckles rapped more for saying this than you are for open bigotry.

Over, I remind you, a fucking cellphone. You’re a bigot because other people chose a different cellular telephone. What a silly thing.

Every single phone discussion has to have someone doing the “brainless apple sheep” or “people just buy for blue bubbles!” or “mindless apple sycophants!” routines. Every one. Even on hacker news of all places, where absolutely everyone has a very technical interest in this stuff, and good reasons for picking the things they do.
