That's why "quality" radio can be so powerful: it's not uncommon for DJs to curate a set based on "songs with the same musician" or "original song and remakes/samples from the original" and the like.

Not that it's guaranteed to be "good" stuff but at least unique and more memorable in my experience

Mine didn't have 4WD at all - don't need it where I live. My use case was hauling stuff in the bed and towing a boat. When I purchased the truck, it was one of the cheapest trucks with the towing capacity required for my boat.
Or you can, but the nipple will magically become covered by a leaf falling down, or a lens flare, or subject's hand, or any other kind of context-appropriate generative modification to the photo.

> Why would it do any damage?

Sigh. Because roads with turn lanes CAN NOT be converted into straight roads without forcing cars to take long detours through slow streets.

This will inevitably slow down the traffic, which is the goal of these propaganda outlets. They WANT traffic to become untenable. Just read their suggestions on "improving" roads with turn lanes.
> fully-featured GUI program when today similarly powerful software is orders of magnitude larger in size?

That's because the "fully featured" of the 90s would be barely usable today. Or to rephrase: the frameworks and programs of today are not "similarly powerful" to the ones from the mid 90s, even if you just recompiled the app from 25 years ago with the current version of your framework (theoretically ;), it would gain support for unicode (codepages where just...), internationalization, accessability, support for networks (who still knows Novell?),... . Except for SAP, they somehow succeeded at combining the user-hostileness of the 90's UIs with the resource consumption of contemporary programs ;).

Turbo Pascal had been the language I used after BASIC, with which I started.
The infinite sum of powers of 2 indeed diverges in the real numbers. However, in the 2-adic numbers, it does actually equal -1.

No, the topic of that thread is to prevent such bug's in the first place.

And i think that OP is right, development speed is really a bit too fast atm for a filestystem. Maybe a codereview ala openbsd could do the job?
It actually doesn't matter. For my cases, I found Mathpix to be much more reliable than Nougat, for example. So, when you have hundreds of documents to convert a year and little time for manual labor on the results, paying a yearly "pro" subscription fee is worth it. However, it will really hit your pocket when you need to prepare datasets from thousands of PDFs... That's what you can't afford without a budget allocation from your project.
no because Forge funds framework development
There is a slight issue: French officials likely often exchange with their colleagues from other EU countries (or the EU itself in Brussels).

Using what then? will they go back to using pigeons or will President Macron force Olvid upon all European administrations?
These companies operate in the UK. It's the same authority that the EU or China has. The deal is that you can adhere to their laws or leave the market.
Next time somebody here will be bashing other manufacturers like say Samsung for clarifying 50x zoom moon shots (like most of HN did when this was a topic for a day or two few months ago), remember kids that this is what all manufacturers do.

>>In Europe cars are not allowed to drive through the crossing on the "walk" signal.

That's not true - in Poland you get a green right turn arrow even on red, and you can legally drive over a crossing even when the pedestrians have a green light to cross. It is absolutely your responsibility to make sure that it is safe to do so.

> Photographs are not and never have been anything but an unrepresentative slice of a likeness of a moment in time,

This is a complete absurdity

Photos are used daily to find suspects of crimes

to convict people to prison

to establish the level of devastation in a war

To find launch site for rocket attacks

To make scientific measurements of distance,size, etc. in architecture and war

By scientists to determine position of things in the sky, meteors, etc.

>What's wrong with sprawl?

It gives the commons the freedom of movement, it's hard to control them when they live and work where they please. Controlling the commons becomes much easier when they are densely packed into singular locations.

That was sarcasm, if it wasn't obvious; though I'm fairly sure a number of the people with anti-car agendas actually believe this.
Local municipalities are so poorly run that I cannot help but wonder if the mundanities of a RLHF-aligned model is at all bad for the state from a pure legislative perspective.

Couple more thoughts:

1. It's not certain that what this world needs is a greater tangle of convoluted laws – ChatGPT inflating legislators' output seems like a net loss. The naive model-UN piece of me thinks that LLMs could help recontextualize political views and help lawmakers cross partisan divides.

2. LLMs are ironic in their utility in that their killer use case is summarization and, yet, they are incapable of critical reduction, ie "which laws should we get rid of?"
When i hear fly-by-wire i think of wire rope going from the flaps the cockpit
> Finegold said by phone on Wednesday that ChatGPT can help with some of the more tedious elements of the lawmaking process, including correctly and quickly searching and citing laws already on the books.

You'd really hope they double check the results, famously unlike the legal people who didn't a few months ago to bad effect.

You can 'represent' the process of summing an infinite number of positive powers of x as a formula. That formula corresponds 1:1 to the process only for -1 < x < 1. However, when you plug 2 into that formula you essentially jump past the discontinuity at x = 1 and land on a finite value of -1. This 'makes sense' and is useful in certain applications.
A Few of the Ideas About How to Fix Human Behavior Rest on Pretty Shaky Science
> I can’t make a Google search without getting back a pile of garbage.

I think SEO / Spammer share lots of that guilt. Not sure how to attribute them correctly.
In the UK, where this kind of behaviour is the default, we just learn it from a young age, possibly at school.
This happens more and more, I guess it's an unholy mix of "better compression as long as you don't actually look at the image" and "ai improvement"..

A few weeks ago, I took a really lovely picture of my son, composition, facial expression, focus, light, it was _PERFECT_ except..

The algorithms in my phone had decided that it'd be better to scrape off his fucking skin and replace it with the texture of the wall behind him!

Of course it must be my fault for buying such a cheap phone, it only a Galaxy 22 Ultra, I'm sure the 23 Ultra is better... But it was not out when I changed phones..

Wtf^wtf..

So I go turn on RAW so I can at least salvage picture in the future, except RAW only works in the "pro" camera mode which is inconvenient to use and sometimes it silently falls back to non-pro..

In the end I gave up and installed a third party camera application, I guess I just have to trust Mark, at least he hasn't actively messed up my photos. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforg...
Presumably they make a network request to get the options. So it makes sense to have a loading spinner just in case it takes a long time, even if it's usually near-instant.
“ Over the past forty years, I've been loaded on booze, coke, acid, Quaaludes, glue, cough mixture, heroin, Rohypnol, Klonopin, Vicodin, and too many other heavy-duty substances to list in this footnote. On more than a few occasions I was on all of those at the same time.” - Ozzy Osbourne

I get the same feeling from other such organisations and people.

They seem to be focused on aspects that are typically less important to the rest of society.

The most head-scratching example of this that I've seen was a guy saying that people should move to Chicago because it's underrated and has a decent transportation network.

Y-yeah. But that's not the only thing that people consider when they move and let's just say the city itself has a reputation.

In my corner of the world there's a lot of putting the cart before the horse in this regard - typically via closing streets for traffic without improving public transport.

Net effect is just more congestion because people have places to go regardless how much you reduce "induced demand".
Reference-counted smart pointers might not be what we usually mean by a "garbage collector", but they certainly are a form of garbage collection.

Well, the only thing we can say is that we can eliminate Apple phones and their software from our enquiries!
It always feel like they are changing something different, but I am not entirely sure if it actually will work or make my life better. And this is as European.

At same time. I'm pretty sure sprawl would be better with more mixed zoning. Ofc, with buffers to oil refineries... If some idiots starts that argument.
> If you're fine with Apple deciding what the subject of pictures should be and how they should look that's fine, but I expect a lot of people wont be.

The majority dont care, as the majority are not photographers, nor is it meant to be a product for photographers. Average joe just wants a good photo of that moment, which it does exceptionally well.

The tech 'taking control from you' is its exact purpose, as again, not everyone is a photographer. The whole point is to allow 'normal people' to get a good photo at the press of a button, it'd be incredibly foolish and unreasonable to expect them to faff about with a bunch of camera settings so it does it for you.

The demo looks pretty nice! I'll be trying this out over the weekend and report any issues. Thanks for building this!
Roads are all fine, I just want them to be gravel or dirt ;). While we're dreaming that is.

I grew up in rural California and dirt roads were quite common not far out of town, it's a different way of driving and one that'll make you wonder why you aren't using a mountain bike, if you aren't hauling a bunch of kids or gear.

This all said I am beyond biased, I escaped the bay area to London at least partially because I don't want driving to be a part of my daily life. But I understand opinions vary and people back home love their cars and TV ;)
So op use this point turn back to support the opinion that readability is more important.

Luckily most people have finally tired of this endless whinery and realized that summertime really isn’t a big deal and we have bigger fish to fry.
This wouldn't have worked for ICE cars, because in order to have a reasonable range of up-and-down movement the gear ratio needs to be quite high (ie, the pinion gear has to be much smaller than the ring gear). It's 6.2:1 in the article, about 2x what's appropriate for the top gear on an ICE car.
It still looks to me as if the cybertruck originally was Teslas secret project for the military but then got rebranded as some kind of Madmax SUV. Ukraine could probably make good use of them.
I was surprised to vote for GPT-4-Turbo more often than any of the others.

How do you define “better” though? The reason I ask, is because I always voted for the model that was easier to prompt into making inappropriate responses. I assume in some people’s opinions that would be worse not better.

thanks for the reply. never been to houston. been to salt lake city, it's too spread out for me but surprisingly it feels walkable, even in 100°+ heat. probably because it's super flat. I enjoyed the people there.

do you ever wonder why dense cities are dense though? we're all fooled? slaves? red pilled or whatever color the saying is
It's not that great. I would know, I work there. The marketing is the shit though. It makes all the tech look like it's the greatest thing ever. The mentality here at this company is hack hack hack and the quality of the product reflect this. Don't expect German engineered precision. Expect products with poor quality, poor reliability and a failure rate that is very very high.

What is good about this company is that we build things fast and there's not of lot of slacking going on that you see in most of the defense industry. We make things fast and cheap, but they're very poor quality.

To give one example take a look at our counter UAS:

https://www.anduril.com/capability/counter-uas/

Watch the video it will give you chills. What the video won't show is how ineffective this product is. The enemy sends one drone, maybe it will work. If the enemy sends 3 or 4 we're done. This shit barely works, I wouldn't trust my life with it at all. All tests and demonstrations showed utter failure and STILL even though we failed on all the tests we STILL got a contract from the government. There's for sure money changing hands behind the scenes.

It also doesn't show you how crappy the UI is. You think we have a custom UI device to control this thing? No. It's react running in chrome on windows. It's also really poorly designed. The initial UI was made by some kid straight out of school and it was just poorly optimized. And despite this... The government still bought it, simply because a crap product is the only available option.

And to be real with you, we can't beat China tech. In terms of the quality, price and speed ratio, China dominates anduril by a landslide. The US can dominate on quality, but we we give up speed and price as a result. And if you want quality, anduril is not at the forefront of this at all.
I just want to say that you can do checksums on...I mean under xfs/ext etc on linux with dm_integrity, I've talked to many admins who have never heard of this device mapper.
The complaint wasn't that they used an off-the-shelf controller, it's the fact that it was a no-name aliexpress special (and wireless to boot). They didn't even bother to use a well-respected brand like the wired xbox 360 controller, which has been used in all kinds of similar applications (they also didn't have a spare). It was obvious even to a relative layman that this was emblamatic of a cowboy attitude, compared to the carbon fibre hull which is much harder to evaluate.
I have suspicion that it was jus skimmed by readers. Would by nice to get original document.
Who said anything about frequency? For that explanation to make sense, the designer has to deliberately forget that you can put the delay after the cycle.
Every other day I read some fascinating HP adventure. I've done some questing myself, cant really tell if I did well, are they new multiple issues or the good old same?

Your comment had me wonder if a kickstarter for an rpg game called HP printers would take off. The potential fan base is HUGE, I imagine even people who would never play a game would want to see it.

Let the GUI be like little computer people (only an office)

https://youtu.be/SkTgX1mGmDg?t=17

Then the player has to go though rituals depending on the HP printer type, swap old for new then new for old then old for new ink cartridges after finding the instant ink package in storage, if any spawned of course.

If you try to go to fast the hero starts destroying the office, starting with the printer. Then a new different model is delivered. Ready for setup.... or maybe not?

In some laps of consciousness I purchase one more some years ago. The hours of configuring it made me feel dumber than the wrath of the HP dungeon master.

The ISP has a wifi router fixed on channel 11, half the neighborhood sits on channel 11, range is about 4 meters, the printer doesn't reconnect unless unplugged first. But there is wifi direct, this doesn't have 50 cm of range, it wants to use channel 11.

in the game our hero at least at first doesn't know about channels. The next printer arrives: Something seems off, there is no usb cable in the box? Do you want to A) order a cable B) we will use wifi! Of course if you order the cable the boss will complaint that it takes to long to set up the printer but when you eventually get the cable the boss wants to print from his phone...

I agree for select ad hoc cases but a chatbot seems unreliable enough to not be, at current, sustainable or scalable for this purpose.

The article mentions "dangerous precedent" along with

> It may not always be able to account for the nuances and complexities of the law. Because ChatGPT is a machine learning system, it may not have the same level of understanding and judgment as a human lawyer when it comes to interpreting legal principles and precedent. This could lead to problems in situations where a more in-depth legal analysis is required

which seem fair at present moment.
Yes, very weak is probably a better description. I haven't learnt the theory behind AI opponents properly yet, so this bot is essentially a weighted random choice.
I find it incredibly irritating that they don't let you configure your security options to remove those checks. A strong password by itself is still perfectly adequate.
What I mean is that this is perfectly valid code:

uint64_t x=0;
uint8_t * p = (uint8_t*)&x;
uint64_t y = *(uint64_t*)p;

It is not the casting that is the problem, it is the dereferencing. And as long as that matches the dynamic type, it is ok.
I'd hardly call these innovators, adventurers, (also in some cases profiteers) and dreamers idiots. They may be making all kinds of mistaken assumptions and "overindulging" in optimism, but they're not stupid. They just dream of bigger things and wider horizons with what's at least feasibly reachable, even if right now, some of us, particularly those with a scarcity of imagination, can't conceive the same without dismissing them as stupid.

What a miserly way to look at the world when you yourself live in it benefiting from centuries of similarly flexible-minded people working towards similarly extreme ideas for their time.

There's nothing innately wrong with the idea of colonizing these worlds. It's just a hard thing to do for the time being, like so much else was that's now not only accepted but so routine as to be a fundamental part of daily civilization.
In fairness, there were extraordinary breakthroughs in technology between when the article was written and when SpaceX started constellation building.

This was one of the first games I was inspired to implement when I was getting into programming, around 15 years ago. My version was "Liights Out!"[0], a homebrew game for the Wii which used the devKitPro toolchain.

They might have benchmarked a set of loads they care about and seen that on average leaving that set was better. But they are all conjectures.
You are overblowing things, 99% of the photographers out there and 99% of the professionals out of those don't have this sentiment, since its primitive emotional one and detrimental to any actual work. Maybe few loud people desperate for attention make different impression on you about the state of affairs, but these days for any topic internet discussions can easily twist perception of reality and give very wrong impression.

You simply have to be practical, use the best took for the job you need. If you ever actually listened to photo artists talking among their peers about their art (ie Saudek), they practically never talk about technical details of cameras or lenses, its just a tool. If they go for analog photography its because they want to achieve something thats easier for them like that maybe due to previous decades of experience, not some elitist Luddites mindset. Lightning of the scene, composition, following the rules and then breaking them cleverly, capturing/creating the mood etc are what interests them.
Google researchers report critical zero-days in Chrome and all Apple OSes
Thanks. I build something similar (didn't know it was called RAG) about 6 months ago. I found the most difficult part was interfacing with the existing systems and extracting the documentation out of those. Google docs, Notion, Slack. Do you have any advice on easier ways to do this? Are there any libraries around that make this task a bit lighter?
So many comments, not a single one pointing out that someone will go to prison over this 'photo', when it shows something that never actually happened.
