With the above premise, where do you draw the line? For example, are you complicit if you use that electricity (or buy that cell phone made from unsavory practices)? From a legal standpoint, should you be charged because you materially benefitted from a criminal action?

It may not be perfect, but it’s pretty darn good - as especially visible when comparing to this effort presented here. There’s a lot of detail and polish in MacOS interface design and UX people don’t realise until it’s missing.
Yea, that's fair. Antithetical, these 'boats' are likely well served by not feeling as much

I'd appreciate more feel in something basic like an Altima. Not even for remotely high performance situations

I can already hear the road, I might as well feel it /s

More importantly, how my tires are reacting to it. For something so underpowered they spin in the wet from a complete stop, something awful.
I'm super stoked on this technology development.
Advances in AI are making the connection between embodiment and cognition into a pressing question.

But the idea that bodily sensations entirely precede emotions seems absurd. If someone does something to make me mad, I "feel" it in my brain immediately, and it takes a while to get to, say, my hear.

Makes sense. All financial newspapers are usually located in same downtown where financial or other firms are occupying huge buildings. And so are city halls and other utils. So CEOs and real estate firms would be giving far more interviews to WSJ and FT about virtues of coming to office.

> Maybe we don’t make Einsteins anymore because we don’t make Max Talmuds anymore.

I think the influence of Max Talmud on Albert Einstein is overstated here. It seems that Einstein pushed himself rather than getting pushed by Talmud. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein "Einstein excelled at physics and mathematics from an early age, and soon acquired the mathematical expertise normally only found in a child several years his senior. He began teaching himself algebra, calculus and Euclidean geometry when he was twelve; he made such rapid progress that he discovered an original proof of the Pythagorean theorem before his thirteenth birthday. A family tutor, Max Talmud, said that only a short time after he had given the twelve year old Einstein a geometry textbook, the boy "had worked through the whole book. He thereupon devoted himself to higher mathematics ... Soon the flight of his mathematical genius was so high I could not follow."
FWIW Spotify's latest big banner in their web/desktop app (something about christmas playlists) takes 100% CPU. I started noticing it after a while when my laptop got really hot and the Spotify Helper Process was stuck at 100%. Navigating away into an album display fixed it..

I don't, because the set sum of population of people who will buy selfie cameras if marketed heavily, and artistic photographers, is orders of magnitude larger than people who proactively know an image recorder could come in handy. And, as tech is one of the prime examples, if the sector can identify and separate out a specific niche, it can... tell it to go fuck itself, and optimize it away so the mass-market product is more shiny and more profitable.

> Chinese credit card is not allowed for OpenAI API.

A lot of online services don't accept Chinese credit cards, hosting providers for instance, so I don't think that is specific to OpenAI. The reason usually given for this is excessive chargebacks of (in the case of hosting) TOS violations like sending junk mail (followed by a charge-back when this is blocked). It sounds a like collective punishment a little: while I don't doubt that there are a lot of problem users coming from China, with such a large population that doesn't indicate that any majority of users from the region are a problem. I can see the commercial PoV though: if the majority of charge-back issues and related problems come from a particular region and you get very few genuine costumers from there¹ then blocking the area is a net gain despite potentially losing customers.

It seems like you completely misunderstood what I said and decided to take it out of context and throw in a jab on top because none of that contradicts my point. What kind of guy does that make you? ;) You are failing to account for how many photos have been used to implicate someone of a crime they did not commit, how many photos have been used to exaggerate or mislead the effects of war (a couple of the most famous photos in all of history were staged war photos), and how many photos suggested measurements and scientific outcomes that turned out to be wrong. Scientists, unlike the general public, are generally aware of all the distortions in time, space, color, etc., and they still misinterpret the results all the time.

The context here is what the parent was talking about, about the meaning and truth in casual photography, and your comment has made incorrect assumptions and ignored that context. I wasn’t referring at all to the physical process, I was referring to the interpretation of a photo, because that’s what the parent comment was referring to. Interpretation is not contained in the photo, it’s a process of making assumptions about the image, just like the assumptions you made. Sometimes those assumptions are wrong, even when the photo is nothing more than captured photons.
Reminds me of a game (MMO) I play on the weekends. Any time someone new joins, they always ask how come frame rates are so low. Then we begin the ”set your graphic settings to high” conversation. They immediately say we are full of shit. It’s already set to low and getting 10 fps.

Eventually, someone explains: “just try it, or stop complaining.”

30s later, they exclaim: “holy ** I’m getting 60 fps now!”

Sometimes, what looks like misinformation isn’t misinformation.

TL;DR: this game switches to a software rendering pipeline on “medium” or lower. You have to set it on “high” to switch to the hardware rendering pipeline.

We don't need a new OS, much less one trying to compete with Mac (lol, no chance).

What we need is for the popular ones to continuously improve.

To me it's the album Rum, Sodomy, & the Lash. It was produced by Elvis Costello and his goal was to capture the Pogues in their live glory, which I think he succeeded at doing in spades. That's really classic Pogues at the peak of their powers. If I Should Fall from Grace with God is also a great album and is the sound of them cresting the wave. After that I'm afraid it was all downhill, mostly because of a lot of problems involving substance abuse and alcoholism.

It’s not going to intercept a hypersonic missile, and I doubt it can reliably intercept a supersonic missile. Subsonic stealthy targets it should have a chance against, since its seeker is EO/IR based, not radar.

I think the primary use for the armed variant will be anti-drone, with decent capability against subsonic manned platforms. That said, it would probably also work well against unarmored ground targets…
We shouldn't have any one scientist able to manipulate results like this

When it comes to trials where the results matter (ie. for approving a medecine), the blinding process should blind the scientists doing the trial.

There should be a third party who will mix up the placebo and real vials of treatments. The treatments should stay in a sealed bags until used, and when used there should be two people in the room recording anything that happens.

For treatments involving "inject this drug", the scientists, investors, and anyone else with a horse in the race shouldn't even be present.

To make a separation between many tribes/states of Rus/Ruthenian/East slavic people and Muscovites. As in people who support war in Ukraine.

Duchy of Moscow took over many other Rus states which were much closer to West/democracy/whatever you want to call them. While Muscovites themselves stuck to tactics they learned while being occupied by Golden horde. What happened in Bucha and elsewhere in Ukraine was the usual Muscovite tactics 500 years ago and it still is. Some things seem to never change.

The app and firmware for the Tandem T-Slim were updated last year or so to allow dosage from the phone app. People on Twitter and reddit were very excited - finally! How convenient! My thought was wow, that is something I really don’t want at all, from a standpoint of possible bugs, security risk and accidental dosage. I don’t want someone who hacks my phone or insulin pump to be able to kill me. Of course, nobody on reddit took my opinion seriously.
Stories like this make me a smidge more sympathetic towards people who were against coerced COVID vaccinations.

I.e., this supports the suspicion that policy makers who claim "the science" supports certain policies are drawing on bad information / compromised experts.

Note: I'm personally very pro-vaccine. I'm suggesting that we treat academic misconduct according to the harm it could cause.
I don't understand why there has to be such a divide. There can be a world where some companies are remote and it's a competitive advantage (ability to recruit from a wider pool of people) and other companies that are in-person and that's a competitive advantage (better social dynamics among employees, easier collaboration in certain ways). I personally like working in person. And I completely understand people who like working remote. I think it's great that we've gotten to a point where people can pick and choose what is best for them!

Like the taillight that cost $5600 in repairs when water got in?

https://hackaday.com/2023/09/09/when-tail-lights-lose-touch-...

snip:

The problem with the vehicle was simple enough, indeed it’s one we’ve had in the past ourselves. Water got into a tail light, and corroded some connectors. The difference with this Ford though was that such a simple fault took out the whole car, and that the fix for a simple tail light cost $5600. The first was due to a vehicle-wide CAN bus going down due to the electrical short, and the second was due to the assembly containing an assortment of wiring and modules which couldn’t be replaced separately. These included some form of side-facing parking radar, a component unnecessary for operation of the light itself.
I know right? haha
Yep. I actually am a co-author of a paper that has been published and while I was working on it, I realized how easy it would have been to make the data agree or disagree with the hypothesis. Based on the feedback of reviewers, you see they don't dig into how you get your data and it seems as if its based on "good faith."

I could have made a mistake, or I could have been malicious. I don't think they would have caught it because it would have involved hours and hours of work on their part.

Show HN: Pet Booth – Create AI pet portraits and photos of your cat or dog
Hey HN!

I've been working with a friend on a neat side project – Pet Booth (https://petbooth.app). It's a fun app for creating AI pet portraits and photos of your cat or dog. (Yes, we know how slow we were and the train left the station)

We mainly did this project as a learning experience as neither of us has ever launched anything before.

Quick rundown of how it works:

Upload 10-20 pics of your furry friend.
Choose 10 themes - pick from 80+ themes we’ve crafted.
Receive an email with 100 unique AI images, in both photo-realistic and artistic styles.
Ideal for anyone looking to spice up their pet’s Instagram, create some cool gifts, print on canvas, or just have a neat wallpaper.

What did we learn?

It's tough to launch a real product, even something as simple as this - especially while moonlighting.
As developers, on top of playing whack-a-mole with stable diffusion, we've had to learn the business side of things, marketing, SEO, etc. and still have a lot to learn.

We didn’t expect how tough it would be to get the word out. It's not as simple as just posting about it everywhere. It’s our first joint project, and man, has it been a learning curve.

Curious if others have faced similar hurdles? Do these things get easier?

If you’ve got a moment, check out Pet Booth, throw us some feedback, or just share your pet art experiences.

Cheers!
Drew

Brandon helped me solve an interesting problem during my PhD. I was building a sun-tracking sensor for a solar-powered lunar rover, and I needed to calculate the vector from the robot to the sun.

Brandon showed me how to use skyfield to solve the problem for a robot on Earth, and then he went back and forth via email to show me how to solve the problem on the moon.

In the end, we used skyfield to generate lookup tables for the places and times that we cared about, and it worked out great!

I agree that one should take a step back at that point but how exactly is this the fundamentally wrong approach to the problem?

Re-using the existing code where possible is the fundamentally right approach to the problem. It just so happens that in this case, there were edge cases that prevented this, so another approach had to be taken.
Yup.

The primary driver of RTO is the massive overhang in corporate real estate. Not only was it overbuilt, it is now also redundant (and not in a good way). Notice one of the primary drivers is Jamie Dimon, Charimand & CEO of JPMorgan Chase, who will be a huge loser in a office real-estate crash, as are many of the other drivers.

Meanwhile, most workers have seen that daily commuting is an absurdly wasteful anachronism, and astute managers have noticed (as IBM did decades ago), that remote work slashes Capital Expenditures for real estate, and has gives a massive talent advantage, since your available talent pool is national or global, instead of only a small radius around each office.

They can keep trying to make RTO happen, but it won't. RTO has flatlined, and remote will only grow. It'll probably stay stable as current office leases continue to run, but on expiration, any smart company will reevaluate if they really need so much office space.
All the valuable collaboration and ideas on the internet occur in git. The rest is entertainment.
Upton Sinclair said, "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it."

This applies to multiple levels in the publication game. Lab grants would likely dry up if the size of the problem was revealed to be massive. Publications would lose credibility, prestige, and money if the problem proved large. It can be recognized as a problem by those who's salaries don't depend on it, but still remain unchanged because those in the best position to change it have salaries that do.

I'm not sure about this unit, but with my Tandem there is a maximum dose setting on the unit. I don't use the app to dose, so I have no idea if the app obeys that.

Even with the maximum dose setting there is a massive range of doses some people need, especially if they have resistance and don't manage carbs well. As others have mentioned in thread they use a 30u max dose setting, which for me would be around 1/3rd of the total daily intake.
