Ya i think i got that part (Like the areow in FedEx, right?). Ill upvote you (try/stop me) but that doesn't really help anything, no?
Presumably 1:1 is the minimum acceptable.
Whether the actual ratio is predictable or calculable is another matter.
What is the benefit over using containers, as in Docker? Whether you use a container runtime or an actual hypervisor comes down to pretty much the same thing, operationally. Both keep your self-contained services alive and distributed. From the application perspective, a container also contains only those parts of an OS the app actually needs, and defers everything else to the host. The only caveat about MirageOS seems to be that your applications need to be written in OCaml, which is a neat language and all, but certainly not mainstream…

I don't really know why cars are allowed to be sold to go such ludicrous speeds in the first place. Sure, there's no speed limit on the Autobahn, but there aren't many countries where you can legally drive that fast anywhere.

Short bursts of acceleration may be required for evasion sometimes, even at high speeds, but you don't need to drive 160 km/h for more than a minute, and you won't be hitting the Autobahn if your car is sold in South America.

There's a reason police don't just camp outside of restaurants that serve alcohol and arrest every single person that comes out and starts their car's engine.

I doubt this mandate will survive the court of public opinion once this becomes adequately known.

https://www.summarize.tech/www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMsbl22gQ...>> In this recent video titled "Salt & Blood Pressure: How Shady Science Sold America a Lie", the speaker touches on a controversial topic in the field of nutrition science: the relationship between salt, blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. The speaker asserts that the shady science supporting the idea that high salt intake equals high blood pressure has been perpetuated in American culture through flawed classification systems and biased public health policies that advocate for low-salt diets. While reducing sodium intake has been shown to lower blood pressure in individuals with hypertension, the speaker raises questions about the benefits of a salt-restricted diet for the general population. They argue that high-sodium intensity may not be the only reason for cardiovascular disease, and that other factors may play a role. Moreover, the speaker calls attention to the limitations of current methods for measuring sodium intake and the challenges of establishing a specific amount of sodium that is adequate or insufficient for overall health. The speaker suggests that more nuanced understandings of the relationship between sodium and blood pressure are necessary, and that the food industry has a role to play in improving our relationship with salt. Overall, the speaker encourages the viewer to question the assumptions surrounding the "salt saga" in nutrition science and exercise skepticism when making dietary decisions.

> Until electric isn’t dependent on gas, I don’t see the benefit.

There is a benefit as soon as the CO2 emissions per kilometer are lower.

Let's say the carbon intensity of electricity production here in Belgium is 100 gram/kWh right now. (This number varies throughout the day, depending on how much is being produced by "green" sources versus fossil fuels. Not just in Belgium, but also in the countries we import from. You can track those numbers on electricity maps[1].)

I can drive more than 5km with one kilowatt-hour, so that means the carbon intensity of my driving is (100 gram/kWh)/(5km/kWh) = 20 gram/km.

The typical emissions of a gasoline car is somewhere between 100 and 200 gram/km. So even though the grid here is not perfectly "green", I am reducing the emissions per km significantly by driving an EV.

Those numbers, and the conclusion, may vary depending on your car and grid. In places where a lot of inefficient coal plants are used, the carbon intensity of electricity production can be extremely high at times. Examples include Poland, India and some US states. In those places it may be better to drive a (very efficient) gasoline car instead of an EV, unless you are careful about when you charge.

Liked this view always (look for Hutter prize rationale), but I think it needs to be accomodated in a general perception/action loop that optimizes a lower level fitness/utility/reward (for instance an inner sense of pleasure/pain).
Importantly the precision means the orbit of JWST needed less fuel to correct, leaving more for future corrections and extending the lifetime.

> The launch was described by NASA as "flawless" and "perfect".[4] A NASA systems engineer said “the efficiency or the accuracy with which Ariane put us on orbit and our accuracy and effectiveness in implementing our mid-course corrections” meant that there is “quite a bit of fuel margin ... roughly speaking, it’s around 20 years of propellant.”[16][17]

When you have many satellites and want it cheap, go with SpaceX. If you have one priceless irreplaceable satellite hundreds of people spent decades building, go with Ariane. There is market for both.

Yeah, if it's a genuinely novel question do not expect people to put work to find out an answer. It will mostly linger and get some random votes. Alas, some people are annoyed by hard questions and they will decide to downvote/bury and they will even come up with good-sounding reasons for it, afterwards.

But as a newbie, you never know beforehand whether your question is novel or trite. Give it a try!
For the insurer: If you're the kind of person who won't blink at paying out $100 you've got better things to do with your time than collecting $10.

For the insured: It's not going to take the sting out of bad news if the payout comes from a loved one anyway. Why would I want to transfer my misfortune to Grandma?
Not true, but you still need a pretty big one. In order to resolve a 50cm object 238k miles away (average Moon distance) at visible light wavelengths you need a telescope with a diameter of 500 meters. In order to resolve some details on such object, say have 10 distinct pixels on it, you need 10 times as much.
Since resolving power only depends on the distance between the two extreme viewpoints, you could get away with two separate telescopes separated by 5km. But optical interferometry is extremely hard and, to this day, not very successfull.

Regardless, "the other guy is even worse" is a very poor defence. In fact, it's not a defence at all!

And since Google is obviously DDG's main competitor, it's not too strange they're mainly focused on Google/Android.
I mean.. is it not more helpful if those people wait on the side of the road for 10-15 minutes till an ambulance/helicopter is there? If they are driving like a drunk driver I would assume the same risks are included...
That's going to be a tiny percentage of the lives that are currently lost each day due to distracted and impaired drivers.

Not that I think a kill-switch is a good idea as it's a technological solution to a law enforcement issue - that rarely works out well, especially when the tech is in the hands of the consumer.

Unfortunately, there's a huge public bias towards driving and whenever there's discussion of limiters, people often come out with rare edge cases and ignore the very large numbers of problems that comes with unlimited vehicles. Personally, I think the problems are best solved with standard law enforcement procedures - a cop sees someone speeding, so they pull them over and get them fined.
So, potentially, we can synthesise this SLIT2 and inject people with a bunch of it?
When I read comments to posts like this, what amazes me is the level of denial people have about huge corporations. It's just not possible to do a rework like that, there is no one who can decide on that, no one who knows exactly what strings have to be pushed (all the platforms, all the teams, all the application layers, all the documentation/PR/support layers), no one who has time in daily work to see it all through, no one who can take responsibility if revenue slightly dips, no one who can approve this and take responsibility if the guy who has the plan in mind quits, etc. Sure, some high-level manager has formal power to force this, but how will he or she make sure it happens exactly?
Haha, I love his a bit unprofessional tone. :D

So much pent up anger - and I understand! Darktable has a strange approach to evolving their software. They somehow keep everything old and bad as they add improved versions and you end up with tons of ways to do very similar things, and to add to this mess, Darktable often uses its own nomenclature, or a very very technical one. If you're coming from Lightroom or Capture One, you feel like taking your first steps on a new planet. For no reason!

So, I'm sold! I'll definitely take a look at this. He gets it!
In the limit of perfect knowledge being transferred to your insurer, will an insurance stop being one, instead turning into an obligation to pay a middleman for all your claims?
Over the last few years it's been moving away from providing maps. Seems like management only want to provide advertising, and follow-my-directions ... It feels like "do what I tell you and buy what I tell you", not what I want from a map!

There is no point to nationalize a financial company. They serve a purpose, to chase and 'fix' market inefficiencies (not sure how useful it is in the modern world), but they do not have much, if any, effect on production.
Actually this is not that common. Instead you get a variable interest rate and nobody wants to get into that either. Business loans are even worse. Banks can recall the loan at any time without a reason. They've caused the bankruptcy of a lot of companies in the past.
That "pregnant wife in backseat" argument is so stupid, and is always being used to excuse all kinds of dangerous driving. The amount of lives saved by someone speeding with a pregnant wife is minuscule compared to the amount of lives being saved by not making driving like a lunatic possible.

> How exactly does this violate your privacy, assuming the data is analysed inside the car itself?

There is almost no remaining device-local data in consumer products, since everything that’s collected is usually exfiltrated or “shared with our partners to improve your experience”.

It’s not strange that people assume device-local info doesn’t exist anymore. It’s a reasonable simplification that almost always turns out to be accurate, sadly.

I worry we’re never gonna turn this around. Say gen Z, who have grown up after the compulsive data hoarding started. They won’t care because they don’t even remember another time..
But that doesn't mean it invades the driver's privacy.

OTOH, perhaps we should not expect a right to privacy regarding our sobriety when getting in a car.
> But you can just take your car and blast 150+ down a residential street if you'd like. Just insane. It's a solved problem, just need enforcement.

There are already a solutions, it is called police, speed traps, fines, and license revocation. Not everything has to be done with preventative measures by a nanny state.

Note that an approach similar to Arianespace has worked quite well in the past, you have probably heard of it: Airbus. Imagine a world without SpaceX: Arianespace would be considered quite successful. I wouldn't say that Arianespace is weak (relative to the rest of the competition) - it's just that SpaceX is very strong.

Note that they are with... some? success trying to greatly reduce costs as a response to SpaceX. Have you heard of any other launcher company trying that recently?
On private road you can drive whatever vehicle you want. This law wouldn't limit you.
Strangely, spacex also pushed nasa to just pay for launches rather than doing the cost-plus thing the US government usually does for development. Either they wanted to show off, or dramatically increase the number of launches and become even more competitive with economies of scale.

Fine tuning in what respect? With large datasets? Or little ones. Makes a huge difference as far as training time and costs.

Look into qLoRA or 8bit quantization. You won't need a lot of memory if you do it locally with a small model and don't merge the weights. You can also use Modal Labs, RunPod, or Replicate.com. They have Serverless and per second billing which is great for testing inference.

Amazon Sagemaker training jobs can also work. Just be careful not to leave an inference endpoint on if you use Amazon for that too. You can easily go broke.
If it’s being driven on private roads your vehicle doesn’t need to be registered and so doesn’t need to respect any regulations being discussed
I can think of a number of conditions where people appear to drive impaired, but aren't. They're probably running for their lives... or the lives of their passengers.

The stronger version of this definition is "capable of meeting or beating human experts at all tasks".

If and when there exists software close to this capability, I think all reasonable people would agree that AGI has been accomplished.
This is an extremely simplified explanation but basically it just multiplies the floats with each other (plus some conditional logic) and that's that, the numbers that it ends up with are translated to letters*

It's surprisingly similar to how human brain neurons work, and it's not something you can translate into "hard logic". That was the old school style of doing AI and it's fallen pretty flat on it's face. Old chess AIs like Stockfish are the sort where you could examine it's logic and see how it's reasoning. These new AIs are more like a mush of mathematical operations that have been fine-tuned until the mush starts to produce viable results. That mush isn't something a human can understand by looking at it, it's just random looking numbers for miles and miles.

Some states have constitutional ammendments that bills be single topic. Sounds like a good idea at the federal level too.
You're joking, right?

How can you in one paragraph say it's not a violation of privacy for your car to decide you're too drunk to drive as long as that information stays local, then in the very next paragraph decry car manufacturers allowing too much information to be remotely accessible?

Do you really think it's going to be a priority of car manufacturers to protect the privacy of their customers who they are, by federal mandate, already forced to (if not willingly) spy on?
Yes, but I would start with C lang and avoid JavaScript entirely until I no longer needed it for employment. In the world of corporate JavaScript employment the least competent and most insecure people dictate candidate selection, how to write code, and quality of output. If this only just resulted in wasted time it would just be slightly annoying.

I still wouldn't invest time in Java. That would greatly increase my employment mobility, but I have seen too many bad practices and failed business applications come out of corporate Java. If I really wanted this kind of self-punishment I still think I would prefer Java or JavaScript because even though I like the JavaScript language so much better the Java ecosystem more than makes up for it with more mature coworkers.
I doubt achieving the same with SpaceX, especially given the amount of prep that went into this launch is somehow impossible. Perhaps has more to do that the launch vehicle was chosen before Falcon 9 has made its maiden flight.
Then you could also drive a non-road-legal car on those roads and don't care about rules for cars used on public roads. I.e. I don't see how the existence of private roads is relevant to this issue.
I think you're right, but I'm wondering whether cars will be designed with this feature for that happens.

The article does a decent job of showing how "Fact Checkers" failed to spread knowledge, probably due to individual biases and a lack of diligence.
Surely this hypothetical is not actually any worse than the same robber clobbering you with said bottle to achieve the exact same outcome today?

> Like one of them seems to just be some gyroid infill with walls and roofs set to zero.

That works only for existing infill patterns. The idea is that if you wanted to create a completely new infill pattern,you could first prototype it using FullControl before implementing it in a slicer.

> or couldn't be banged out in five minutes in Notepad in raw gcode.

That's the point this just a slightly more convenient method for generating gcode.

Manual typing in notepad has it's limitation, as there is only so much text you can type. So you will want some kind of scripting language supporting loops and expression evaluation, so that repetitive parts can be described more easily. Some more advanced gcode interpreters even have extensions that allow you to do loops and calculations directly within the GCODE. But I don't think any of widely used 3d printer firmwares have that or support it too well. There are a couple of benefits doing it on computer in a general purpose language:

* GCODE wasn't exactly designed as general purpose scripting language so for more complex stuff syntax isn't that great compared to python

* performance and ability to plan ahead. If 3d printer evaluated and executed each gcode instruction independently it would result in very choppy movement as the tool accelerated and stopped for each of them. Most modern 3d printer firmwares will plan the movement acceleration across the multiple gcode instructions. That's not easily doable if the future gcode instructions depend arbitrary logic. It's simpler to split it into two parts so that 3d printer only needs to care about linear sequence of instructions with no loops, branching or complicated calculations.

* People always make mistakes. Pregenerating the sequence of gcode on computer, allows you to simulate and verify it on computer before running on actual device.

You could also just generate the GCode directly as plaintext from scripting language of your choice. But again this is just a bit of convenience allowing you to skip of the boilerplate for most common actions and transformations.

> There's not much in those screenshots that doesn't look like it was done with a normal slicer o

From what I see those pictures:

* gyroid like looking thing -> already explained before

* surface texture patterns -> some slicers have builtin functionality, but again it doesn't help if you are prototyping new surface texture pattern

* complex single wall thickness shapes -> there is vase mode but it only works for external contour, and attempting to slice single wall thickness model without vase mode wouldn't work well either

* grid of lines on build plate -> probably some kind of test pattern for finetuning one of the printing parameters

* single extrusion thick tower with bridging

* very thick extrusion beads forming a braid like pattern

* more single extrusion thick latices

* non planar movement

* spool shaped object -> 90 degree overhangs
I am a creative independent and I certainly don't work 40h a week...more like 10, but I'm very happy with creating things and I would be very sad if AI took my job away. I hope AI burns.
The whole universe runs on decay & arise of the new. From stars through chemical compounds through cells to us humans.

If the rotating cloud of gas and dust stayed forever, there would be no Earth. If the chemical compounds would be super stable, there would be no life. And so on. Systems are kept in equilibrium by this, otherwise they became unstable.

Making space for the next, better entity is a cosmological principle.

If you can't make peace with that, I am sad for you.
> That just opens the door to the driving version of "your grandma had cancer, so you won't get health insurance".

I think that highlights the stupidity of a privatised health insurance system. Not wanting to know about health problems due to a financial disincentive is not a sensible way of managing a populations' health, when typically prevention is much cheaper and more effective than waiting until obvious symptoms show up. I suppose it depends on whether profit is more important than the population's health.
A big difference in my opinion is that projects like Mirage does not try to reimplement the same hardware drivers as the host system and instead implements much simpler drivers for virtual hardware.

For example, how do you write to a block device? You make a hypercall with a "handle", offset into the block device, the number of blocks to write and a pointer to memory to be written. There's no pretending it's a spinny disk with sectors and heads or what have you.
