Like yes, but also no? The aristocracy no easier to organize than the peasantry. They, through individual self-interest, graze on the commons of wealth and power and are subject to its tragedies just the same.
This tech from Google seems similar, but doesn't have a fancy demo: https://blog.research.google/2023/12/unsupervised-speech-to-...

That looks like it's SwitchBoard, not iOS. Users do not have access to the internal Apple test software.

As for Rhapsody, that looked decent, it had a similar vibe to A/UX where it looks like Mac OS Classic but runs Unix.

Perhaps you are referring to Kodiak or Cheetah, but those were pretty GUI-consistent at that time. Granted, up to Panther it was just Aqua and getting it to work consistently and performant, but I don't think it was ever in the state that this RavynOS is. That's mostly because NeXTStep as a foundation already had an existing GUI that was consistent.

RavynOS is having a bad presentation because it looks like some sort of odd partially-done theme based on CDE/Motif.
These don't even have the (more interesting, IMO) part though - the HUD.

Glass was obviously an early experimental design with loads of shortcomings, but at least in concept, a personal HUD was fairly interesting. I didn't care about the camera and found it disappointing that it was the only part people seemed to focus on. Isn't this just the camera/mic bit without the cool part, tied to a Facebook/Meta account instead of a Google one?

I agree $1500 was a bit steep for something barely above prototype level, but this is basically an earbud/mic that allows me to take hands-free photos - something I do maybe a few times per year.

I'm a software engineer with 10 years of experience in software development. I've designed and built solutions as an entrepreneur, as a consultant, IC and lead engineer in companies big and small. I have a knack for backend development and strong product management intuition.
Apparently at CZI, L4 engineers reported to make less than L3 engineers. Seems like some data quality issues here
By "samples" do you mean examples on the marketing/landing page? It sure looks like the model supports many major Indian languages like Telugu, Tamil & Kannada. https://huggingface.co/facebook/seamless-m4t-v2-large

Yeah, I kinda agree with the spirit of your comment; it sure would be nice to see a major Indian language like Telugu on their landing page for sure. But that's just my Indian-person bias speaking.
The problem with GCP is the same problem with Google overall — arrogance and lack of knowing how to deal with real people.

You have to respect your customer, the work they did and organizational constraints when you are coming in to a large company.
Great comment. I would encourage all PhD students to bomb-proof their thesis topic and build it on as solid a foundation as possible. I chose perhaps a less flashy, relevant, and lucrative topic for this reason but I would rather finish than be staring down the barrel of a "my entire work has been based off a lie"...
Not a Ruby guy, but Scala uses that syntax for all method declarations:

// type annotations are optional, if the compiler can infer them
def foo = 42

def bar(x: Int): String = {
// stuff
}

It works fine IMO. Scala 3 introduced Python-style syntax, in which {} is optional:

def bar(x: Int): String =
// stuff
end bar // end is optional
One alternative explanation is that the expansion of the universe is slowing down.
Let's see...

> pip3: command not found

Okay. I'll need to install it? What package might that be in, hmm. Moving on, I already know it's python.

> /usr not writeable

Guess I'll use sudo...

= = =

Obviously I know better than to do this, but very few people would. This is not 'dead simple'! It's only simple for Python programmers who are already familiar with the ecosystem.

Now, fortunately the actual documentation does say to use venv. That's still not 'dead simple'; you still need to understand the commands involved. There's definitely space for a prepackaged binary.
Hybrids doesn't make sense to me. If you need a car that runs on gas then make it a proper ICE car. Why put two engines into one? Seems super wasteful.
Thanks! Macroexpanded:

Explicit communication is harder as you don't get feedback about what people don't understand. A conversation means you see the blank look on the other's face and know to slow down, or see they got it already so you can go faster. Without that feedback you have to carefully go into extreme detail about everything because you can't be sure the other understood any other way and that is a lot more effort - most of that effort is wasted because the other would get it with much less, if only you knew that.
If we had a social norm against pretending abstract research would "enable the creation of new materials, advance quantum computing, and enhance the security of your bank account" the agencies would learn to fund it anyway, because they would realize you run out of applied directions in the absence of basic research. Right now it's all laundered, so they think they can fund far more applied research than is available.
Railway | Full-stack Engineering (Product), Platform Engineering (Infra) | REMOTE | https://railway.app/careers

Tired of trying to beat kube into shape? Does writing YAML to ship code fill you with utter dread? Dream of a future where deploying software is simple, and you don't need an army of infrastructure engineers to build that perfect janky bash script™ to make life easy?

We're Railway, and we think infrastructure can be better. So far we've built out a platform loved by hundreds of thousands of users who simply tell us "Give me Postgres", "Deploy this repo", and we make it happen

Fair warning! The problems are complex: home-rolled hypervisors, cut-above container orchestration, over/under/whateverlay networks, virtio device drivers, edge proxies, IAM that doesn't suck, kitchen sinks - we need to build it and we're looking for likeminded individuals who think this stuff is fun.

If that sounds like you, please apply at railway.app/careers. We have a number of roles, but are prioritizing the following two roles:

+Full-stack Engineer

+Infrastructure Engineer

See you soon, and happy shipping.
On the flip side, what behavior would you prefer? The pump to not always deliver the amount you confirm?

I mean, this is clearly a bug, but under normal operation it would be much much worse if the system silently overrode a user dose. People's insulin sensitivity varies a lot. A 350lb person may regularly dose 10 units for a single meal, whereas that dose would kill a small child. If you are 350lbs, and your BG is 400, in DKA, and you're dosing 15 or 20u as a correction, you do not want an automatic early termination of the dose.

You can always cancel a bolus in progress. The override/cancel bolus is likely the highest priority task in the entire system. In the worst case, you can physically disconnect.
It won’t replace it, but it’s very likely to supplant it, just about destroying the segment by reducing demand by being good enough and so much cheaper, especially as people get more used to it.

Typesetting. Music engraving. Bookbinding. The quality of all these fields have been materially harmed by advancements.

Computer typesetting has, by and large, been a significant regression, though the gap has largely been made up now if you make the right choices.

Published music scores used to be set by experts. Now they’re set by novices using software that is mechanical in method and generally quite insipid. Most are atrocious compared to the old masters, and mediocre at best compared to the typical published scores from a hundred years ago; and very few popular scores are really good (… and if they are, there’s a reasonably high chance they’ve used GNU LilyPond, which has focused on this problem). But the barrier for entry is so much lower, and people have got used to the inferior results, so I don’t know if anyone engraves music the old way, and even people that know better largely just shrug and make do with the new. Like with computer typesetting, there is hope because things have slowly improved. But most will continue to be mediocre.

Books used to be bound with cold glue. It takes time to set, but the results are very good, supple and long-lasting. Then along came hot-melt glue, and it’s just so much friendlier for cheap manufacturing because books are finished within a few minutes instead of a day or two, that I don’t think anyone produces books the old way any more, even though the results are abysmal in comparison (compare the binding and reading experience of a paperback from the ’40s or ’50s with one from the turn of the century; no one after tasting the old will desire the new; for he says, the old is good). But they’re just (barely) good enough. Unlike the other two, I don’t think there’s any hope here—the regressive advancement crowded out the superior but dearer option so that no place was found for it.
This reminds me of the time I used Drupal for a hobby project of mine (10+ years ago).
I wanted to upgrade it to a new Drupal version, and one of the first steps was "Backup your database".
It'll be fine I thought.
After the upgrade I was presented with a brand new, empty system.
One of the final steps was: now get your backup and load the system with it.
Fun times. Also my last adventure with Drupal.
I worked at a company in a market with similar purchasing dynamics, but we focused exclusively on the users. We committed to a "product-led growth strategy," which meant no salespeople. Product focused entirely on the user experience. The problem was, we weren't selling to users. We were selling to people in the users' organizations who purchased software. These people did not have the same job as the users, and they had no first-hand experience with the product.

It was a doomed approach. We needed salespeople to get inside the heads of the purchasers, learn how to explain the benefit to them, and coach the users on explaining the benefits to other people in their organization. We needed salespeople to bridge the chasm between the users and the purchasers.
Isn't the upsizing of vehicles because of consumer demand, though?

They can sell crossovers and trucks into the consumer base at such volume and margin that it is worthwhile to simply stop making sedans.

There are people like me who just want an electric honda fit but it seems like there aren't enough of us to be worth the effort.
A terrifying accusation. I've had both OpenZFS and Btrfs eat my data, luckily I had backups but did lose a few files. XFS is probably the best bet on Linux, it was beautifully designed and implemented by SGI back in the day. Hopefully the ChatGPT generation don't start modifying that code too much.
Before you complain that a comment is a tactless description of history that distorts the truth, you should perhaps try learning some of the facts about said history. Such a habit will serve you well, I promise :)
It is not like Uber eats is instant. Cooking yourself is probably quicker for most meals.

> that means thousands of people read them?

It doesn't, but that's counter-intuitive.

With relatively new, relatively small citation counts, the numbers are probably indicative of the number of actual readers.

But well established, high citation number papers often take on a "shorthand" role. You'll often see them in introductory sections or other supporting text with statements like "previous authors have X", "common approaches such as Y", etc. Here they often have little to do with the core of the paper, they are providing context.

Now really people should have read them, but sometimes Jones, et. al. 1998 just becomes a collective shorthand for a set of ideas. As such people will quote it just because the papers they did read quoted it, etc.

Often, over time, a single paper becomes the landmark for a set of ideas, and just gets cited to pull those in by reference. In theory this is the paper that "invented" those ideas, but in reality it's more complicated. Overall it's not a terrible practice, as a way to frame things, but can be error prone.
This seems to be what is happening in Europe (and perhaps more generally across the globe), with English being the common tongue.

Question is, what will happen to the tribal / local languages? Will they survive?
I'm using AI for training videos for my startup. Never going back to voice actors outside of primary marketing videos. tThe sheer convenience of write/listen/tweak cycle on scripts is insane. In minutes you can do a voiceover which would have have taken hours + days delay prior.

Sure the final result sounds slighty robotic. 99% of people wouldn't care, and you can get more training videos done, faster for a fraction of the cost.

[Edit] And I'll add the difference from 6 months ago is noticeable to today. I imagine every 6 months we can just re-download updated voiceovers and every 6 months will sound just slightly more polished..

Entropy in Biology [pdf]
Administrative borders are arbitrary and rarely have anything to do with the actual borders of the city.

Population density figures should be reported as averages over people rather than averages over land. They are usually not, because it's difficult to calculate them that way. If you have a residential area with 20k people in a square mile next to an undeveloped square mile, the population density is usually reported as 10k people / square mile. But from the perspective of the people living there, as well as for the purposes of infrastructure construction, the actual population density is closer to 20k people / square mile.
using CRT filters on emulators also count ;)
Still feels hacky to me, but I definitely rescind my earlier comments then. To be sure though, you're saying ReVanced patches out/around the builtin Google auth and uses GmsCore? So the user is presumably authing through microG? That actually seems... really reasonable, and makes me feel bad about the way I portrayed it.
it was designed this way, so you can run your rj11 cat3 phone system over your in wall rj45 cat5e cabling
That's why I'm not big on using word "hallucination" for this. It is really our subjective experience. Our 'view' of the outside world is constructed in the brain from the senses, like what is 'hot', or 'pressure', or 'blue', these don't exist in the world, we build them internally. Some people call it a 'hallucination', others 'subjective reality', or 'mental map'.

The problem is, our brain is constructing reality, it can 'make things up', this has been shown in countless studies. And now that we have AI doing it too, it seems like easy association to make.
Was expecting this to be a visualization of the data.

> Helen Toner, a director at the Center for Security and Emerging Technology, at Georgetown University, for co-writing a paper that seemingly criticized OpenAI for “stoking the flames of AI hype.” Toner had defended herself (though she later apologized to the board for not anticipating how the paper might be perceived)

Wait, what? Apologise for doing your job or did the board fail to read Helens current job description? Or is Helens position on the board of openai meant to prevent criticism of openai?
Don't skimp on RAM.
Maybe a bit harsh, but I'm not sure science would get more trustworthy if we'd get more people who choose to optimize clicks just because it pays better.

It's really easy to do "shortcuts" in academia that gets one better salary if that's what they want. As seen in this post.
There are more interesting ideas when you compare "winning the war" vs "winning the peace"

For the US context, you can look at WtW in Iraq, Afghanistan vs WtP in Germany, Korea, Vietnam

Ukraine needs to win the peace more than they need to win the war. There will most likely mean they need to make concessions and join the EU & NATO

Here's a good rule to use, only applies in the extreme.

When your cpp file is so large that you begin losing debug info in upstream tools like Sentry, you should probably split it.

Related, when your functions are so large that they fail to compile under higher debug modes for emscripten (too many locals!), you should probably split it.

> Like seriously, would you desire to go back in time to 1890? Okay, have fun if you're not white

The ancestors of the people living in Gaza were much better off than their descendants today, being bombed while the US Navy sits off shore to enable the massacre (coming via bombs made in the USA). Same is true of many in the world. Hunter gatherers in the Amazon were not being massacred by mining companies back then to the extent they are now.
Economic class mobility is higher in most of those socialist countries. Maybe new business wealth specifically is more difficult, but I'd rather people have multiple routes to building wealth and more success overall than to solely focus on risky entrepreneurship.
I always thought of salad fingers as like one of those weird flash videos but as a YouTube series. Anybody remember albinoblacksheep.com? I'm sure there were others too, maybe ebaumsworld but I'm not sure if those were as weird
Choosing companies by compensation is so 2019. In 2023, it's about your commitment to and track-record on remote employment.
Equity data usually represents a big part of compensation and is basically impossible to value objectively as there are too many factors at play.
Not sure what you mean. People like me (40+ male) are a huge segment and plausibly spend much more time in games than movies and music.

By revenue games are possibly bigger than movies and music combined (global revenue).

Not everyone needs to like games buy many do and the industry revenue is quite massive compared to any other entertainment.
