> Are you asserting that data determining the decision, isn't in any way guided by law or regulation?

Of course not. Airbags and when they deploy are also guided by law and regulation. That doesn't mean that the government can suddenly deploy all the airbags in Arizona like the parent is claiming this mechanism could be used for.
On the surface, sure. It hasn't gone anywhere. The ideas derived from classical educations (read: not as career scholars, but initiated into that frame of understanding) are what define the shape of power.

Hell, Putin has a chaos magician (Dugin—shades of Rasputin) leading the shape of his global politics...
Some of those are obvious, but in a strange "and yet I haven't thought of it that way" way. Some are reasonable advice.

"You can dissect a cadaver" was genuinely unexpected.

Nothing against specific professional help, like personal trainer, but I think "Hire a coach" belongs more in the "Things to not waste your money on" list.

And last, but not least: "Follow up many times. You won’t make people mad if you’re polite" is just wrong, I'm usually mentally cursing persistent recruiters by the time they follow up for the third (and, thankfully, usually, last) time. I'll report as spam in every conceivable way anyone that goes further than that.
That seems like a good reason for them to do this. I wonder how much non-public stuff they have, or it's just meant to incorporate a specific kind of information.
Some people may prefer that to “oh no, Steam did rm -rf $typo/“
Don't assume their vocal support for Palestine is actual support for Palestine.

The Irish are very, very good at PR (and being highly defensive when being criticised). It's the only place I've lived or visited that I've experienced real xenophobia, and homophobic attacks (yet they bang on about legalising gay marriage and opinion polls on the support of it - this is my point exactly).

Also with their housing crisis, the tides have turned, and they're not so pro-immigration/pro-refugee now.
There's already a social/legal contract in terms of seat belts that a certain demographic already bitches endlessly about. You'll be in good, voluminous (if scumbaggy) company :(

Sorry, with all due respect, i could not care less about your convenience. If you can't already appreciate the convenience over that whicb came before and you're really that selfish fundamentally, I'm not going to spend more time sitting with you trying to teach you to do what Jesus would do (if you're religious or just being a good world neighbour in general, its pointless anyway. At the end of the day, theres a disconnect between people who do what fails and doesn't work (using the criminal justice system where its just not an effective tool) and want to punish their way out of everything, or there's people like Einstein who suggest when something isnt working its insane to continue thusly, and to find a new approach. Not my finest example but you get the point. I'm washingmy hands of this lol

Its not always about just your convenience respectfully and obviously the tech has to be refined to reduce that absolutely, its def some bullshit but we need to find a lateral solution to this stupid persisten issue and punishing often sick people protestant style clearly isnt working, sorry

Sorry again, I know how much everyone likes to be dismissive of a rational and balanced discussion and use `sorry` as a glib silver bullet to escape scrutiny and resonance but here we find ourselves. I care about you in any case but this selfish and lack of collegiality or desire to problem-solve is a cancer and I will pull every stop to quarantine and stifle it :(

Nothing personal, its just my selfish conceit that I have to prioritize above your feelings in turn. At least we can speak the same language temporarily :/
It is alchemy then.

> There is one good way to solve climate issues: consume less. Instead, kurzg says "we could consume, but someone will solve our issues with new great tech, like carbon capture".

No, kurzgesagt says that given that people won't be willing to consume less to the required degree novel tech will also have to play a role. It's disingenuous to run around and say that 'consume less' is the solution knowing that people won't do it. At least not if they aren't forced to. Do you want to argue for forcing people? Then say it. Don't hide behind "oh, just consume less, it's the only thing that works".
Whenever I see Europeans railing about the destruction of their cultures by small number of immigrants, I want to point to California and be like “you’re doing it wrong.” Pretty much within one generation, everyone here is bilingual, fully integrated, we all enjoy each others company, culture and food etc.

Except governments don’t currently go do war on behalf of the citizens or for protection of the “homeland.” They go to war “overseas” on behalf of the corporations that employ citizens that vote certain ways, in order to maintain the current global structure of US political dominion.

I know because I served as an officer in one of those wars on behalf of the United States (among other things that were also not beneficial to citizens). That had absolutely nothing to do with protecting US citizens directly.

It was chiefly about maintaining petro-dollar power and reinforcing the financial-corporate-govt collusion that maintains the current capitalist structures.

The structure of an organized body politic is not the problem.

The problem is that the body politic has been beaten into submission by those same corporate-government oligarchs to such an extent that most people just “go with the flow” because fighting it is exhausting and seemingly impossible.
You're overstating human difference.

We appear to have a capacity for substantially greater sophsitication in those domains, but none are unique to us except when we artificially define them to be. Remember that words like "language", "logic", "art", etc are cultural inventions with a fuzzy and fluid relationship to whatever real-word "stuff" they refer to, not natural kinds that themselves have sharp and perennial definitions.

Unless you choose to define the word as that which only humans can acheive, a spider's web elegently reflects "mathematics" just as much as some beautiful proof in set theory; a conflicted bird debating itself over which stem to use in its nest reflects artistic attention just as as a painter choosing their next color; a cat chirping or mewing or yowling reflects language just as me writing this comment.

The sophistication doesn't go as far, by our eye at least, in any of these animal examples, and so we don't expect the spider to confirm Fermat's Last Theorem or the bird to feature their nest in a gallery (actually...) or a cat to compose formal poetry, but the essential bits that we extend with our sophistication are all ancient and widespread throughout nature.

It's still astonishing that any life can do so many of the things it but I guess that's apparently what billions of years of "pretraining" on unfathomably efficient machines gets you.

Incidentally, it's wild to see people believe that a stream of fmults pushing through a trillion transistors would get you even close to the sophistication of any of life's intelligence. For current-AI-skeptical materialists, it's usually not a doubt about whether silicon and software might conceivably be intelligent, but it can just seem absurd to believe the grossly crude and narrow innovations of recent years are even close. You need to have a very shallow, narrow, almost willfully blinded, appreciation of the "intelligence" exhibited throughout all biological life to think that you unlocked the silicon version of it all in a pretty-good chatbot running on Azure.

From the article:

USB 3.1 Gen 1 is 5 Gbps, not 10 Gbps.

To which propaganda? Hamas shoots rockets on civilian cities and murdered hundreds on 7/10 and keep hostages – this is true, and many of us know it for sure. I know it because my relatives live there, and one of them was on that damn rave party.

We saw these video when Gaza celebrated 7/10 murders – is it "Israeli propaganda"? Or maybe elimination of Israel in Hamas charter is?

Americans not "falling for propaganda", we just can differentiate between good and evil.

The difference between a government and a corporation is the ability to use violence. A government is just a corporation with a monopoly on violence (police, military, jails...). The structure of how people are organized is more significant. Are we talking about a dictatorship or a functioning democracy? Are we discussing a non-profit or a publicly listed company?
Hard disagree. Language doesn't matter. Only communication and intent matters and language is only a servant to communication and intent.

If the intent and meaning came across and the intention wasn't to offend and the meaning is clear there is zero and I mean zero need to pretend to be offended. The cat doesn't even care and clearly no body here thinks of cats as Bluetooth speakers... what practical purpose does any of this serve? None.

It's all part of that pronoun thing started by transgender people. The desire to be recognized as a certain gender in language codified into a "law" and that law is now being taken to logical extremes in such a way that we have to use the correct term for cats. The next step is to teach cats English so they can actually be offended.
To emphasize your second point: I have learned that cats are much more “obedient” - but really, much less inclined to suddenly just not give a damn - as kittens than when they get older.

I had an extremely bright kitten that learned his name in a week, would come running no matter where he was in the (fairly large) house when I called his name, even if he was asleep, etc and would perfectly play fetch, up to and including bringing the toy all the way back to my hand/lap.

He didn’t forget his name or how to play a year later. He just realized he doesn’t have to get up from his comfortable spot just because I felt like calling his name. Likewise he figured if he just makes a half-ditch effort to bring a fetch toy back, perhaps picking it up a few paces only, I’ll still pick it back up and play fetch with him again.

They’re creatures that (who) have mastered the art of doing the bare minimum to get by.
A lot of great food diversity follows as grocers cater to the demographic.

Yeah. I wish I had saved the quote, but someone said something along the lines of "the rich get new technologies when they are expensive and sucky; the rest of us get them when the kinks have been ironed out."

If you're worried about the rich getting things unfairly, focus on tax policy and closing all the thousands of loopholes. That's a lifetime's work.
>The whole point of...

there are many things that in theory have a particular point but that when put in practice most often do not have any point at all - in such cases opinion seems to divide between those who complain that the people who put things in practice do so incorrectly and those who feel that if the practice when implemented tends to be wrong then it is the fault of the theory itself.

I personally hold with the latter view.
I understand that the H100 is NVidia's leading edge chip, but can someone let me know if 10K is considered to be a big cluster?

I've never worked inside one of the leading edge AI companies like OpenAI, Google, Microsoft or Meta.

Is this comparable to what they would work with?

My first guess is that it seems much smaller. And if you are running many parallel training jobs then you are getting about 1,000 chips at most to work with.

Or is this about what the leading competitors are working with?

Azure, for one, seems to have orders of magnitude more chips at their disposal.

In the McDonalds analogy, developers are not the teenagers working at the machines, we're the engineers that designed the machines. In the McDonalds analogy, the computer is the teenager.

Programming isn't work, it's meta work, you come up with a list of instructions once, and then the computer does the work 24/7 indefinitely. Meanwhile you go on to write another set of instructions for something else. If you ever write the same set of instructions more than once, you're basically doing it wrong. So it's hard to know how long things will take, because you're always doing something new. You never do something more than once.
De facto it does

De jure, Wales does

Cambridge Dictionary defines official language as:

> I can't believe they thought this was a good idea

I don't think they originally intended to make players minmax entire teams, but to give an edge to those who spent some time training and breeding the right way.

Anyway, most people I've met who played at tournaments either admitted (privately) to using hacked Pokémon or denied it while blatantly using a full perfect IV team with some shiny. (I've think they're cracking down on hacked teams harder now, though.) So I think anyone still grinding for their dream team is actually doing it for fun.
If I remember correctly DQLearning is using discrete action space, limited number of possible actions which makes it possible to simply take the argmax_i(qvalue(state, action_i))
The game was such a technical mess I couldn't get passed it, even though I thought the new gameplay was decent.
None of what you're saying is an absolute truth. It applies in many environments, and in many others there is definitely space for commodification and MBA-style management gimmicks. It all depends on scale, technical complexity & maturity of the product, centrality of the software in question to the core product, etc.
It doesn’t really specify anything. It is very vague, and interpretation is left to the regulator.

If the AI or whatever determines that you are impaired is offloaded to the cloud, then it can send a stop command remotely, and will almost certainly be abused by malicious actors (and some governments). If it is onboard, then it is still likely going to be a closed source software or hardware module that can send a stop command to the car.

In any case it creates a mechanism within cars for disabling it outside the control of the owner or operator
And the original tweet is very much kool-aid heavy, with "20x performance", "30x performance" claims about the switch from one card to the next.
The next town over from me have a large Vietnamese community, the older generation frequently only speak Vietnamese, relying on their children and grandchildren to help them navigate in society, doctors appointments, interacting with the government and all those things. I'm continuously surprised that someone would refuse to learn the language of a country they lived in for almost 50 years... Like WHY?

Seems rather rude in some sense.
I'm not sure what the parent post meant exactly, but I do agree there is tons of grunt work -- I've seen big name SV companies where large parts of their work flow include parts like "and then just every hour you need to do something in a slow UI that can't be automated" to keep vital systems working. I would say that's really grunt work, and there are even persons in such companies where their only task is doing such grunt work. Truly I've been told by clients I work with they have entire double-digit sized teams where the members only responsibility is to reboot VMs that breach specific resource thresholds -- easily automated and even built into most hypervisors, but for whatever reason these tech giants opted for a human to do it -- the only semi-reasonable explanation I got from one client was that their infrastructure team got outsourced and they laid off the only people who knew how to use the automation tooling. It's a dumb reason for sure, but at least I can understand why they opted for the manual grunt work.

Similarly, keep in mind a lot of this grunt work is just to satisfy some reporting requirement from somewhere -- some person(s) in the company want to see at least X% of uptime or Y LOC every day, so you get people trying to write a lot of yak shaving code that basically does nothing except satisfy the metrics or ensure that uptime % always looks good (i.e., they don't fix the cause of the downtime entirely, they just get the endpoint that is checked to determine update working well enough so it reports to the monitoring system and they leave it at that)
I bet guns kill computers too.
Ah yeah, this sounds like such a great thing, state of the art unreleased tech + 1 trillion parameters based by data accessed by the patriot act.

Such a wholesome thing. I don't want to hear 2 years from now how China is evil for using "AI" when the government is attempting to weaponize AI, of course other governments will start doing it as well.
I don't think that explains it at all. There are plenty of rewarding behaviors that cats don't give two shits about. And it also doesn't explain why some do it and others don't. Plus, cats have individual personalities. Not everything is driven by instinct.
One of the things that makes America (and the American economy) so great and so large is the fact that the type of economic participants changes rapidly. When the types of participants change, the types of businesses change, leading to continuous change and innovation.

As an example, my state was majority Italians (including many bilingual families). Since the 2000, the demographics have been moving towards Spanish (of the latin American kind) and Portuguese (of the Portugal kind). This shows in the types of new restaurants, businesses and activities popping up.
> Am I reading correctly that non-destructive editing, advanced colourspace support, and reliable hidpi display support are all unlikey to make it into 3.0…?

GIMP 2.99 already handles color spaces better than 2.10. E.g. you already have late binding for CMYK (but not early binding, that's post-3.0 stuff).

There's no telling if layer filters will make it to 3.0, I guess we'll see how much is done at feature freeze time. So I wouldn't be too fast to jump at conclusions, Even if it's missing in 3.0.0, 3.0.2 would have it.

As for HiDPI, the three way switch for canvas zooming suggested by Jehan here — https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/5206 — is something I hope they will reconsider. There should be a better way to handle it.

> Does anybody know what is expected to make it into 3.0?

Everything you see in 2.10 point releases (much was backported from 2.99) plus some extras like GTK3 port, multi-layer selection, complete rewrite of linked layers concept, Lua and JS bindings, and various other things. Because of backporting, separating 3.0-specific changes from the rest is not an easy task.
