What's the evolutionary explanation for the child wanting to throw the cat?

Also what's the evolutionary explanation for you trying to save the cat?

Personally I think it's genetic drift. In safe environments natural selection by definition is much less strict and thus all kinds of random mutations pass the bar of survival.

Among all the countries in Europe, I expected Ireland to be the last to harbour anti-Muslim, anti-refugee sentiment with all their very vocal support for Palestine.
You are probably referring to how governments bailed out the Uniper situation?

I'm not talking about that. There are a lot of energy subsidies, to the electricity companies and to energy intensive companies.

Plus it keeps them sane. Being locked in a flat 24/7 is not good for a cat..
Of all things my dad got cats to fetch celephane wrappers fairly easily. All of our cats were strays or barn cats originally.
Well, since the people in one of those flows will likely cease to exist through utter annihilation, they're probably going to end up "missing-presumed-dead" and not actually reported as dead, since there won't be a body.

But you are missing the forest for the trees. The point is, was this implemented, every single one of those people driving away would be dead (due to the traffic jam created by just one or two of these cars)... so, it's actually really hard to tell what the impact will be because you prevent what was once easy (evacuation using both sides of the road in hurricanes/volcanoes/etc), into impossible or probably impossible.

There simply isn't a way to predict how bad this will be.
Apparently "assistant" is the new name for a system prompt.

Based on what? Are you asserting that data determining the decision, isn't in any way guided by law or regulation?
The most memorable Zelda games are 3D though. Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask, Wind Waker, Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, Twilight Princess etc…

It bends just fine. There's tons of fiber cables for "ordinary users" including HDMI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, VR link cables, and, of course, toslink. You just end up with the extra cost and complexity of having transceivers built into the cable which is a waste especially at these speeds where copper is clearly a limitation.
I thought Dojo was custom chips.

Can you elaborate? I was personally so happy with Pixel4 that I've decided to buy a new version when my phone lost support.

I still use Android, but the lifespan of every Android device I've ever owned is two years or less. They just don't survive that long. Whether it was the old Nexus 7 tablet that hit a boot loop issue, or charging issues that I've run into on most Pixel phones. My previous pixel even had to be repaired (thankfully under warranty) because of the charge port failing. But again it died 6 months later right around the 2 year mark.

The only saving grace is that I'm usually spending around $300 for the Pixel phones, so it's still likely cheaper than if a bought a higher end Samsung that lasted longer.

Funnily enough, the longest lasting "Google" device I've owned is a ChromeOS Lenovo Duet that I purchased back in 2020. The tablet is decidely sluggish these days, so I don't really use it anymore, but at least it still functions.
I wasn't referring to that.

Why is this surprising? Should a service be forced to keep accounts running in perpetuity? I think this is pretty standard TOS language applicable to pretty much every service in existence (including those that don't explicitly state it).
I don't think "that" means "cats are just like Bluetooth speakers". The same way that "who" doesn't imply all humans are the same.
Yep. In pretty much every team I was in, devs would always push for "their own version of Scrum" that differed from the PO, which always ended up being much closer to vanilla Scrum than whatever some crazy PO or Scrum Master wanted.

Also funny: when the PM is is actually good, you barely have to discuss "the process". Almost any shit just fucking works. Who knew.
Sorry but I disagree.

Too much control and influence for an American company I expect.

Japanese companies have some behaviour that may seem odd, naive or lacking the best of capitalism, but they are what they are.

Nintendo regularly get this sort of criticism.

The game is also a data collection tool for Niantic, rather that to be a great game. Someone would have to give up control to change it all.

OpenAI's 'superintelligence' breakthrough so big it nearly destroyed the company
The C abstract machine is basically an overgrown PDP-11 at this point and most modern hardware is designed with that in mind with GPU and vector hardware being notable exceptions — and notably not being especially amenable to programming in C.

It’s actually been an unfortunate and pernicious codependence IMHO.
And critically, those deterministic, predictable, mechanical responses still give rise to conscious experience of self (Which for me brings into doubt the possibility of p zombies).
Tom's Hardware and Tech Radar belong to the same company. If you consider this to be blog spam, almost any news website these days would be blog spam.
If not "the most" data, they may have the most access to data that's exclusively available to them.
It might be better to ask the inverse. Which "AI Safety" experts are worth listening too. I have found very few, and the ones that I've found worth listening to are much more concerned about practical issues that impact systems today, as opposed to the ones that are just author fiction.
USB is still (as far as I know) a mess and that sucks.

But DisplayPort has great optical cables available! I was early in & they were very cheap then (no one trusted them yet), 50m v1.4 for $60. Turns out to be vastly longer than I needed, & got a 20m cable for gaming from the roof. There's even DP 2.1 cables now.

A USB4 with optical transport would be divine.
Usually "the people that," is referring to a role that some people fulfill, like "the people that make the laws." Whereas if you're referring to a category of people with a shared behavior, it feels more natural to say "people who bicycle to work" rather than "people that cycle to work."

I'm not sure there is any grammatical rule for this, though. And besides, nobody likes people that nitpick ;)
In isolation, perhaps we could choose to not develop such large models, but the globe shrinks every day. If one country declines to create such a beast, other countries still will create their own beast. From what I've seen so far, it's mostly a brute force issue now, not a specialized knowledge issue. Perhaps if all the rumors spilling out of OpenAI about Q* are true, then other countries can be blocked due to lack of the required knowledge, but I have doubts that such secrets would be secret for long.
FFTs can be useful when constructing CNN pipelines in unsupervised domain adaptation too. Fourier domain adaptation (FDA) uses the calculated amplitude of a target set to modify the source (train) set. Cool and quick to implement.
That is adorable! All my cats were always consistent shoulder riders in their kittenhood, but the physics of balancing a 7kg feline stretching almost a meter in length on a lanky guy’s shoulder(s) are a lot more challenging than placing a tiny ball of fluff in that same spot and walking around.
Yeah, I saw that, but I also saw instructions for building on Mac and CI scripts for doing it so I got hopeful :(

I think it's reasonable to assume a very low rate of false positives given that the manufacturers have a very strong incentive to prefer false negatives over false positives.

A manufacturer that makes their detector too aggressive won't sell any cars, while there are no penalties in the law for making the detector too weak.
Popular chat-bot LLMs weren't trained to do math, they were trained to predict the next token in a conversational setting. The fact that they can do any math at all is a miracle considering that they have absolutely no thought process; they're just predicting the next token, one after the other, until some threshold is met and they stop producing output.

Framing it another way, it's sort of like if you asked your calculator to have a conversation with you and it actually had a fairly decent go of it. Sure, it wasn't grammatically correct a lot of the time and it struggled quite a bit. But it wasn't at all designed to speak conversationally, so the fact that it could respond at all should be rather impressive.

Ask HN: Getting Started with DAW?
So, I saw the other day the release of the ep-133, and it happens that I want to get started doing that kind of stuff (e.g., creating simple beats). I have zero knowledge about DAW/sampling and music in general (my background is in soft. engineering), so the first thing that I searched on Google was "open source daw" and I found LMMS (https://lmms.io/). Installed it, played a little bit with it and right now I'm going through the documentation. Feels like a lot to process (I don't know almost all of the terminology used).

Do you know which kind of books/articles/blogs I can follow to get started in this world of DAW? I would like to get the fundamentals first and then start experimenting (e.g., not sure if the analogy is correct, but "it's like I don't want to learn JavaScript, but I want to learn data structures, algorithms and programming in general").

I know there's stuff like Ableton, but I would like to first learn the fundamentals (which I hope one can learn with simple open source DAWs like LMMS).

I'm not sure HN points mean much other than something like frequency of visits and participation.
Definitely kids. My sons will always ask me to throw them on the bed, on the couch, in a bounce house, drop them on the floor, and just love it. I imagine a high trust relationship with a cat could also develop to that point as well.
Which can happen for a million reasons.

What happened to their custom hardware training stack Dojo? They had some interesting ideas there. The last I heard, they had one of those tiles "working" in the lab. Pretty far from a production setup.

I can imagine they either underestimated the software effort needed to squeeze as much performance as possible out of those things, or they underestimated the pace at which Nvidia scales FLOPS/$, or both.
I don't know but my wife used to play mahjong in SF Chinatown and almost no one spoke English, including some people who had been in the US for over 30 years. It was a bit surprising.

> I have no idea what has gone wrong with American appliances,

TBF i'm in the EU and they're not always great either unless you buy the big expensive brands.

A good explanation I have seen is that due to inflation appliances today are just far far cheaper made.

People complaining about the build quality of a 300 euro(equivalent price ) appliance from 30 years ago and a 300 euro appliance today are basically unintentionally comparing a low end product with a high end product.

When the United State deregulated media to essentially eliminate the public service component of media, we created a race to the bottom that we're now realizing in the public space.

The generation of people in their 30s and 40s running the country spent summers listening to Rush Limbaugh over lunch with grandpa, grew up to consume news and comment from message boards and later social media, entered adulthood in the middle of an endless cycle of warfare, and came into their own in this era of propaganda and information warfare. Mainline protestantism has been displaced by Pastor Bob and prosperity gospel. We're replacing the craven boomers with nihlists.

The underlying trope of most propagandistic media is always to discredit the most powerful entity in the room - the government. Why? The money people behind faux-grassroots media are almost always reactionaries who often build their empires on the government teat and don't appreciate the irony. Particularly true of extractive capitalists in the petroleum and materials industries. The US Government giveth, and is the only entity that can taketh. So "rule of law" for me, and "freedumb" for thee.
My point was that it seems you are critiquing the design of the page as if it's purpose is to display sales data, and I was suggesting that it's purpose is not to display sales data, but actually to simply advertise Stripe. When judged by this outcome, the design is (arguably, it seems) more successful.

Regardless, I find no joy or purpose in talking to someone that tells me I'm incorrect when I tell them my motivations for doing something. It betrays a certain ignorance on your part. I think let's just leave the thread there. Have a good rest of your day.
Texas officials warn of rolling blackouts to ease strain on power grid
Yes, afaik, direct air capture currently is miniscule and when it is happening the co2 is sold on the market, where it replaces waste-product-co2, so in the end no co2 is actually removed from the atmosphere.

It's currently in research phase, marketing it as "you can offset your carbon emissions here" is lies.

We currently can't both consume like this and improve the outcome of global warming. The whole idea of black friday goes against such efforts. Attempts to market it otherwise, even if they were credible are greenwashing.
I think this topic is not important. We slaughter self aware animals and eat their flesh. That's the biggest sin we commit and I don't even care. Why should I care about this grammatical politeness?

It's pretty inhuman in the ways it messes up. For example try asking GPT-4 to write you a non-rhyming poem. It gives you a rhyming poem instead. Complain about the rhyming and ask it to try again, gives you another rhyming poem after apologizing about the inadvertent rhymes. It clearly understands what rhyming is and its apologies sound sincere, yet it's incapable of writing a poem that doesn't rhyme. That's pretty inhuman.

Also the way and context that it gets logic puzzles wrong is pretty inhuman. First of all, it's capable of doing some pretty hard puzzles that would stump most people. Yet if you change the wording of it a bit so that it no longer appears in training data, it's suddenly wrong. Humans are frequently wrong of course, but the way they're wrong is that they give vague solutions, then muddle through an answer while forgetting important pieces. This is contrary to GPT-4 which will walk you through the solution piece by piece while confidently saying things that make no sense.
A well-intended interpretation is: the parent comment advocates for a society where there is substantial language diversity even within smaller geographic regions.
This makes sense from many perspectives, because forcing people to speak the same language no matter the context is not only hostile to immigrants but also to native minorities. E.g., in the North of Scandinavia (where I reside), many people don't like that the language that has to be spoken is traditionally (less now than historically) dictated by the South.
I view it similarly, but differently. I think at some point a developer should aspire to level up to being a general problem solver.

The language, the stack, etc.. are just details. Given a problem - they can tackle it.
Interesting. Firefox on Android handles it just fine for me.
I’d consider refactoring that large table into separate sections.
> "thus keeping the entire revision and verification of reported data."

What does that mean?

The entire point of KPIs is to better solve the "subjective measures allow politicial employees to dominate less-so ones" problem, by converting it into a "defining KPIs such that gaming them produces outcomes beneficial to the company" problem.

KPIs aren't objective, but they're certainly more objective than manager opinions.
Is motivation self-start or kick-start?
I believe that motivation only starts itself the first time.

After that you have to kickstart it most of the time with your objectives, missions or goals.

Before a certain school presentation I moved all the power point files into the windows startup folder and turned off the machine. The shenanigans that ensued had my friends and I laughing for two hours straight.
My best prank was loosening the plug for my buddy's keyboard. It was perfect because:

- The guy was always making fun of everybody else

- I did it while talking with him in his desk so the others could see what I was doing

- I just loosened it, not unplugged it, so the keyboard stopped working after a while, when I was already back on my seat

- Everybody was LOL and he had no idea why, just complaining the damn computer hanged
A future, or an insurance, are typically commodities with great exchange values and low (or rather, unknown) use value. The opposite of the food the farmer sells.

[edit] > those categories I think are either too imprecise to describe reality[...]

I agree signal/sign value and exchange value are imprecise and would benefit being more divided (I really like the notion of sign value as I think it is useful to explain 90% of modern western society). I disagree on their uselessness. Value can mean a lot of things and having more words to describe those things is always useful. A reverse 1984 if you will.
