Well, text is political. You're not going to say "Tiananmen Square" without a political sentiment, so your only option would be to censor it.

LLMs are text tokenizers, if the majority of it's training material leans liberal or conservative then the output should reflect that. I think a better idea is to avoid relying on glorified autocorrect for anything related to political drama.

I don't see the issue unless the fuel-powered cars are able to reduce carbon emissions at a faster pace than the energy grid can, which seems doubtful.
I think you also have to recognize not everyone shares your dedication to the study of the blade.
You’re getting caught up in the “I do everything, they do nothing” comparisons. Yes, it’s unfair, yes, you are justified in being annoyed by that. It won’t change your predicament though.

You might balk at this, but since you’re at the cofounder/lead level, you already have the power to make real change. Lead this other person, support them, don’t do their job for them. You likely need to “teach them to fish” so to speak.

There are some tough conversations and boundary setting you likely need to do. It’s going to be hard, because the other party is used to the way things are. If you hang in there, stay patient, and focus on maintaining a positive, growing relationship, to have a good chance of succeeding though.

This weakness you perceive in your peer is an opportunity for growth if you look at it the right way.

Ignoring that cultivated meats should be generally indistinguishable from their host, there are many ways that cultivated meats will be better for humanity

Animals tend to be parasitic hosts, which is where lots of our cooking temperature guidelines come from

Animal / human viral crossovers can make more deadly virus variants, so reducing that exposure is probably better for us

Cultivated meats should ultimately result in lower emissions, so if you’re anywhere near a coal fired plant, that will directly result in lower cancer rates

This should similarly have a positive impact on climate change
But that still doesn't give you free will, because you don't control the chaos.
> Where do you think this monorail proclivity comes from (assuming it wasn't "predetermined")?

I am not a History of Ideas guy (or any guy). But,

1. Some people get very afraid of certain ideas because of the tenuous so-called implications. See Mindfulness (already mentioned): this is very bad according to some because if you believe in it then you necessarily (the monorail) stop fighting any kind of injustice against yourself and others. Because it is apparently impossible to both practice mindfulness as well as to not be a complete doormat to Circumstance.

2. Western thought is very ideas-oriented, to the point of becoming afraid of ideas as primary agents in themselves (what causes things (not as in intentional agents))

3. Western thought absolutely abhors contradiction. Or apparent contradiction. It can’t live with it. It can’t just say “ah, this is impossible for me to explain but it seems that this box can be green and orange at the same time”—nope

4. Related: One often mistakes “contradiction” with “there’s a gap here I can’t explain...” (see next point). This is equally insufferable. Many would rather “resolve” the apparent contradiction by way of some absolutely naive and idiotic theory rather than having to live with this gap of understanding or comprehension. See the popularity and interpretation of what the Turing Test is: Many would apparently rather believe that intelligence is a sufficiently advanced computer program even though they have absolutely no knowledge about the subject of intelligence whatsoever because simply not-knowing is too uncomfortable

5. I hate the “Death of God” idea but it is true now that it is harder to hide behind the God of the Gaps in a secular age; thus in turn apparent contradictions become harder to live with

6. Eventually you end up with very totalizing ideas like Determinism because you are a physicist or a biologist or something; you understand the “substrate” of everything important to humans and everything that seems “extra” to that is just complete idiotic, human-invented nonsense.
Where do you think the term autopilot came from? ;)

Smaller planes means more crowded airspace. I bet the permits will be the biggest obstacle. How would you price these? It would be hilarious if small planes took over instead of high speed rail. I could see cheaper helicopters being popular.
> The absolute floor for wages should at least meet a person's non-discretionary expenses plus a bit of discretionary spending if they're working close to full time. If it doesn't meet that minimum level, then the employee is unable to work that job. They simply can't.

You are over-simplifying. That isn’t how it plays out in reality. People will accept a non-livable wage under many circumstances.

Here’s a few:

* working extra hours at two different minimum wage jobs

* living costs subsidized in some way, e.g. living with friends or family

* college student or high-school student who doesn’t yet have to pay for all of their expenses

* homeless or partially homeless

* relying on savings to cover the gap

* retired person who doesn’t need to earn enough to cover all of their expenses

And so on…
To maximize revenue you need to maximize the number of ads people see. To maximize the number of ads people see, you maximize the amount of time people spend on the platform. To maximize the time people spend on the platform you need highly engaging content. The cheapest form of highly engaging content is mostly composted of clickbaits, polarizing news, disinformation, conspiracy theories, etc. And when people spend most of their time with this kind of content, they tend to lose the ability to engage with serious, thoughtful, reasoned, informed, and nuanced content, first because it's hard to find and second because it requires genuine effort to consume.
Do we know for sure these are shorter? I got an impression that he struggled with it, not that he intentionally created woman avatars to avoid inviting women. Assuming the latter for a conference organizer isn't less weird. If that's true, that is very undercover inclusivity sabotage on the verge of conspiracy. Simple desperation to get people there at all and to avoid going bankrupt in case he fails is much more plausible reason.

Edit: I'm not sharing particular opinions itt if that matters. It's just the whole issue and these social requirements feel odd to me. By "got what they wanted" I meant exactly that: you put an artificial barrier that makes little sense and people will work around it under the best sense they can make of it.

To pre-clarify on what "makes little sense", I think that the rules of these big speakers should be "X must be inclusive by advertising these criteria: <criteria>" instead of "X must have women".

Quoting the linked HN thread up there:

> we always struggled to get women from outside of Drupal to submit to that track, despite Drupal itself having a relatively large female population. We actively reached out to women both in the PHP community and local to the event and still sometimes had no submissions from women

Seems you were saying "shorter lengths" with too much confidence.
Vegans look like cancer patients and are slowly dying, and vegan celebrities are lying. These are some bold takes.

A simple Google search will tell you vegans actually have a longer life expectancy (among other health benefits). Although it's not totally clear why this is.
So maybe the vegans who look like cancer patients to you are in fact old healthy vegans ;-)

Just walk into any significant veg(an) restaurant at a busy hour and look around you. You' might even find the opposite of what you are made to believe to be true.

But no matter what, I'm afraid you will convince yourself you don't have the obligation to adjust any corrupted views, but do the opposite because you can't handle the reality. And sadly you're far from alone.

And actually I get it. It's not easy to open your eyes and acknowledge your part in the (largely unnecessary) immense suffering we bring to billions of animals each year, and the destruction that comes with animal agriculture.

But please don't make it harder for the people who are trying to change things a bit, and stop spreading your made up stuff and ancient myths.

For me all this BS is the only actually difficult part of being a vegan.

There is slight optimization. You don’t need 3D printed parts for your reacher grabber data collection stick. Just use $5 iPhone microscope mount to attach the phone securely to your stick.

It’d be nice also to think of some common format that includes depth, calibration, trajectory and doesn’t require nonstandard software on an iPhone. Standard camera app/cinematic format could be one example, I think.

An infinite stream of numbers does not -by necessity- contain every possible permutation.

Therefore it is not automatically proven that pi becomes sentient after some particular digit [1]

Hybrids are much more complicated, and thus will be more expensive all things being equal. Once EVs break out of their current weird artificial premium only market segment, and are available at their natural price points like the cheap Chinese EVs, then they should be much cheaper than hybrids.
I suspect all these range anxiety and geographic arguments will be proven irrelevant for most people, once the cars are cheaper.
Yes it is true. The force needed is pretty high.
Sorry, I love Rails, but because something can scale (which I never thought it couldn't) doesn't make it a high performance system. That's totally fine, Rails makes other tradeoffs that IMO are more universally useful, even though some people seem to not be able to understand that server cost for most companies is tiny compared to developer cost
Why do you "have to" work with them?

Uber gets a lot of flack but there is no doubt that they are forced the taxi industry to finally innovate and improve customer experience. Getting rid of hailing a cab (in inclement conditions), having cabs ignore you because you fit the wrong stereotype, messing around with the right change to give, awkwardness at tipping etc. We have Uber to thank for so strongly challenging incumbency, ultimately resulting in better service for the people
When I bought my house recently. I documented everything! I had everything in this blog! It was great, found an open source app to organize it. Very wiki-like.

I was so impressed with my accomplishment. Then I'm not sure what happened. The database wouldn't open anymore. None of my backups would work neither. Super confusing. 100% sure those backups ought to open but super wierd.

Worse yet, it should have been plain text disk storage... it wasnt anymore? There isn't any encryption or passwords for this simple app.

My tip: Make sure you use an app your familiar with.
You don't want to be "less efficient with money" or "make your life worse". Factors like that don't come into it. Neither does "making society better," "reforming the guilty party," or deterrence. And "inflicting more punishment" isn't the goal either -- that's just cruelty.

The basic point is simple. If a person commits a crime, they should be punished in proportion to the crime. Full stop. Within that simple framework, efficiency is fine, but it shouldn't be the goal.
> You just get the rail that mounts at the front of the bed, take the front wheel off ...

> It is the version of Effective Altruism that has gone beyond that to "we need to focus on AI safety" and "we need to fly to mars" that people are calling bananas.

There's been more of a move towards longtermism (and existential risk) in the last couple of years, but this is still not the majority of what the Effective Altruism community is about. I also don't think flying to Mars has ever been on their radar.

MIDI is absolutely horrible for ML. It lacks very necessary information such as articulation etc which are important to make sense of music. It's popular because it's simple but there is no way to understand music by just looking at MIDI.

I'm a hobbyist in this space (am a composer myself as well a software engineer) and currently all tools are very poor. MusicXML is better than MIDI. MEI [1] is better than MusicXML etc.

The problem is there is miniscule amount of effort and money spent into this field because music overall makes peanuts. It really doesn't justify training expensive ML algorithms which is unfortunate.

Engels-style Marxist ideology weaponizes our typical in-group / out-group social dynamics to define those groups solely in terms of oppressor and oppressed. Only the oppressed, the victims, are part of the in-group.

It is visceral, effective, compelling, and utterly destructive to civil society. But that's the point: To construct an us-and-them narrative to excuse any evils done to "them" in the name of righteousness. Radicalization operates on the same pattern that gave us the Crusades, that gives us jihad, and that still drives people to full-throated defense of political purges.

Defense of the individual, divorced from group dynamics, was the clear, shining achievement of classical liberalism. Personal rights, privileges, and equal treatment under the law regardless of which group you belonged to, or what your status in society is. Our school systems are vigorously working to pull that apart.

Agreed - Bentham is a hero.
This is bland advice and only applies in trivial situations where the colleague has bad habits, quirks, etc., which is really most people. Everyone can be annoying if you look for that perspective, but most people are…fine. If someone is actually manipulative or abusive, this advice is tantamount to “chill out, and let them walk all over you.” Actual shitty people don’t usually think they are being shitty and/or they have very powerful rationalization engines and/or short memories. For these actual shitty people, showing respect or “finding a connection” won’t stop their shitty behavior, so what’s the point? Maybe if taking the high road makes you feel better, but really if you find yourself stuck working with one of these people, you should GTFO. That is the critical missing piece from this article.
Two points. First, the training accuracy rates are still very low. Nor are the finance benchmarks spectacular for practical applications. Second, many of the "socio-technical harms and risks" could have been easily avoided merely by exclusion of some of the training datasets (namely, 2, 5, 6, 7, 11, and 13). If more open data is available in the future, say from national archives, I wonder whether those sources would be even needed (or whether they're even needed now, sans open source code). That said, some of the harms and risks can never be remedied, I think.
No, you are missing options.

A) Pay 9.99. No tracking.

B) Ads. No tracking.

C) Ads. Tracking. For that consent is required.

The point is that consent needs to be voluntary to be valid. That is the huge legal difference. Pretty simple concept, but unpopular with advertisers.

So the comparison with A) is a red herring to distract from the lack of consent.
I find these applications intriguing for VR/AR/XR, but there are also the privacy concerns. I can see internet providers and big tech really wanting to leverage this data for profit

Thanks, that's good feedback — will add that to the to-do list.

Just to give you a quick response: look into MusicXML's concept of a "cursor". Parsing a MusicXML document requires you to keep an internal state of a "position", which increments for every note (well, careful, not every note -- not the ones that contain a "chord" subelement!) and can be explicitly moved via the "backup" and "forward" elements: https://w3c.github.io/musicxml/musicxml-reference/elements/f...

For music with multiple voices, this gets easy to mess up. It's also prone to fractional errors in music with tuplets, because sometimes software chooses to use MusicXML position numbers that aren't evenly divisible into the rhythms used in a particular piece of music. That can result in a situation where the MusicXML cursor gets to a state that doesn't actually align with any of the music.
The ATS won't judge a resume, but it will parse it and display in an easier format for the recruiter to browse through.

If your resume does not parse well (for example, a PDF with two columns can sometimes mean the right column text ends up above the left column text) the recruiter will have outdated / wrong information in front of them when they make the decision to do a screening call or not

I know because my cv had two columns for the longest time, and I kept getting recruiters call me "how's it going at <company I left 6 years ago>" and they had my latest cv

FYI TuxGuitar is a FOSS player that can load/play/edit PowerTab and GuitarPro files. Multiplatform too. It's not completely 100% bug-free, but it's good enough to load and play most tabs flawlessly.

Or for a more robust piece of software (especially if you do tabbing/composing yourself or you want to generate/edit a tab from a MIDI file), MuseScore is also FOSS and can import GuitarPro files no problem. With its recent UI overhauls it's really become top-notch IMO.
