My assumption is that banning them outright will make it super obvious you can’t run adblock on chrome. With Manifest V3 limiting their capabilities but not getting rid of them, the layman user will still feel like they have adblock and aren’t likely to know it’s not as powerful as it was before.

In addition you're attempting to recycle space junk ("bullets") when you're quite literally standing on planet packed to rafters with junk. The energy required to harvest the material in orbit makes it extremely hard to make a case that it is economical.
That would get them a lot of bad press and many people would leave. It might even get AGs attention. If they just do ambiguous annoying things, that's safer for them.

The Java I encountered at work didn't even use Java 8's features. People balked when I suggested using vavr to get some functional programming goodness.

The culture around Java is conservative; it has a lot of inertia. That's why I support Kotlin; it forces project contributors to leave their dated habits behind. Java libraries still work, of course.
Not only does Google take a long time to review extension updates, but Chrome pulls extension updates infrequently. So even if you manage to get an update pushed to the store in 24 hours, it may take another day or more before your users actually get the update.

All of this put together means you really shouldn't trust Chrome extensions for anything important. If there's a security vulnerability in something like your password manager, the update is going to take days to reach your system.
The stereotype on suicides is not as true as it once was. Japan now has a lower suicide rate than the US. Its suicide rate is currently barely in the top 50.

Kinda. The magnetic field is the curl of the vector potential. If the vector potential is nonzero but curl-less then you get zero magnetic field, but the particles’ wavefunctions still feel the vector potential.

(Specifically, the phase of the wavefunction is affected; obviously nothing observable about a single wavefunction could be affected in the absence of a field, via the correspondence principle. But when you have two electrons, that phase difference does show up in their interference pattern.)
Sorry about the confusion - the 30X is comparing QLora with QLora - all benchmarking is QLoRa bsz=2, ga=4
But Figure 4F kinda suggests it's really unlikely for one to survive past ~300yrs or so? So, yes, not fixed but there is a survival curve (assuming their models are generalizable, which they very well might not be).

The two examples given are an Italian company and an Australian company that are operating from US shipyards while remaining non US owned companies.

They do operate via US registered wholly owned subsidiaries which is a matter of bookkeeping.

In both instances the US Navy has sourced knowledge and skills from non US companies and paid them to provide service via shipyards on US soil .. with oversight from existing established home soil operations eg: Austral Marine Division in Australia.
Logo ...

Then, I am very sad after learning multi-agent model using xlisp-stat then to find out that xlisp-stat is gone (and the authors go to develop R). At that time I searched and test Logo (networked or NetLogo i.e. https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/computer-science/multia...) version would be an option to implement a multi-agent model. Both this and there is another (using objective C or https://www.santafe.edu/research/results/working-papers/the-...) are not as easy as the lisp version.
I've also had luck with grocery stores. Especially the produce boxes: they have thick walls and are good for moving dishes.

From their side, they are saving the hassle of breaking down and disposing boxes. So for best results, ask them the preferred pick up time and stick to it. (there's a fine line between "less work disposing of boxes" and "tripping over stuff taking up space all day". If people feel appreciated, they can be remarkably kind.)

Oftentimes, deliveries come on specific days- for any store you ask, plan ahead slightly to work with their schedule. Not every store has the room or space to help, but some will try if they can. (Trader Joe's, for example, tends not to waste space on frivolities like storage. Or parking.)

Moving to a new place is a lot! I hope you find good friends and neighbors when you get there. Taking time to build roots before the new job gets hectic can make a big difference to quality of life later.
Why is greater-than-2x playback such a popular feature? Seems kind of useless compared to audio boosting (to make YouTube videos play at the same volume as all other apps for Android) and 1.1x/1.2x/1.3x playback. 1.25x and 1.5x are often too fast for some videos.
What is the motivation behind open sourcing code at all if you're not going to open source it all? I don't mean this to be an asshole, as I truly want to understand the motivation.

Quaint. Australia already has, it's all VoIP, mobile or web. A lot of the larger web-focused corporations don't have public phone numbers anymore. If you want a home phone in Australia, you are required to get VoIP which runs over the NBN, though I haven't had a home phone line connected for about a decade (outside of DSL, though the line is so degraded I eventually got a Starlink). POTS is dead.

That recent Optus outage was a reminder that fallbacks are very necessary for any communications system, however.

Bonus Facts: Advised several successful startups on growth and strategy. Worked on HN (yes, here). Not looking for specific comp, more interested in the project than the money. If you're a small project and have no money, hit me up anyways, I'll help you out.
The first "accelerated" video card I bought (I don't remember what it was) included drivers and some "multimedia" demo stuff on a CDROM, including Rejected as a .MPG file or some such.

It hadn't occurred to me until just now, to wonder if that CD is still around, and if anyone ever archived it. I'll probably see my folks for the holidays and I'll try to remember to take a usb cd drive in case I can lay hands on the disc.

Later, Rejected showed up in Spike & Mike's animation festival, but I think I'd seen it passed around online by that time, and actually most of the stuff in the festival that year (probably 97?) was familiar. IRC Fservs were huge by then and they basically demolished the novelty of in-person festivals.
Once upon a time you could have made the same argument about roads. Guess what? Privatized roads are now the exception, not the rule, and road maintenance is a societal thing, not an individual road user thing. Because we've recognized that roads are a requirement for society to function. If youtube is the only way that is left to access educational material, government messages, important news, product information and so on then it is no longer the province of private enterprise but the province of society as a means of communication. Guess what is regulated in almost every country?
I agree fully - what do you suggest then? OSS the entire code base and using AGPL3? I tried that with https://github.com/danielhanchen/hyperlearn to no avail - we couldn't even monetize it at all, so I just OSSed everything.

I listed all the research articles and methods in Hyperlearn which in the end were gobbled up by other packages.

We still have to cover life expenses and stuff sadly as a startup.

Do you have any suggestions how we could go about this? We thought maybe an actual training / inference platform, and not even OSSing any code, but we decided against this, so we OSSed some code.

Any suggestions are welcome!

The exposed/wetted area of a soldered joint is pretty damn small and I’d expect those 40 year old joints have reached an acceptable steady state by now.

That’s not an excuse to use leaded solder on supply pipes as plumbing with lead-free solder is perfectly easy, but I don’t sweat* the old copper pipes in my 1920s home.

So if the user owns all their own data, their "data view" is their data set. A To-Do system, a personal finance app, any kind of note-taking or personal record keeping fits this model.

You create a database per user and the auth and sync are all self contained within that database. This system is multi-master, which means that any change on a client or on the server will be replicated to every other. There is no "authority" which trumps the others. The server is simply a central hub that requires the right authentication to allow the sync process to happen.

When you want to create a set of data that crosses user boundaries, it gets complicated. It's possible to do, but you're not on the easy train anymore.

Creating a system that's both easy to use, and scopes the right data view out of the system wide tables and rows we usually think of databases, is not the CouchDB nor SQLSync model.
Sorry about 1080 Ti - sadly Triton and Xformers support Cuda 7.0, so unless if OpenAI and Meta makes it support Cuda 6.0, we sadly don't support it.

It seems like removal of lead pipes is overkill? Typically lead pipes develop a layer of deposits that pacify the metal, stop corrosion and prevent lead from leeching out.

The Flint water crisis was a cock-up by the water utility that resulted in loss of pacification and leeching of lead, but that a mistake that can be prevented.

Seems like regular water testing (already done) is a reasonable solution. I could see decommissioning of lead pipes (i.e. an work done needs to replace them) but a wholesale "removal all lead pipe whether or not they contribute to lead exposure" seems like overkill.
Since it's already Christmas shopping season, lots of big box retailers (electronic stores, hardware stores, etc.) probably have had a lot of new products come in, so they might have boxes too.
Interesting! I did have some chats from interested people who have say 2 or 4 or 8 GPUs who are willing to somehow buy the Pro plan - the issue is now how do we price it, do we make a training platform? etc
PEX (and polyethylene in general) is one of the least concerning plastics, it’s not worth worrying about on that front. (I wouldn’t want to drink out of PVC though since it often contains phthalates as a plasticiser).
Almost certainly, though most of the problematic plasticizers (anecdotally) probably work themselves out in the first couple years. We likely won't see any real studies on it for awhile though, but [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S00489...] is concerning.

"In the US, PEX pipe manufacturers often request a pipe to be certified in accordance with the NSF International/ANSI 61 Standard leaching procedure (NSF International, 1988). However, the results are not made public and the water that contacts the pipe for its first 90 days is discarded and not tested. Therefore, there is a general lack of available data to be used for an LCA on US PEX pipe products."

Water in plastic pipes is pretty stanky at first, especially the first couple months/weeks.

PEX has issues with permeability - it's highly oxygen and chemical permeable. Also contaminants from manufacture working themselves out.

PVC has a lot of plasticizers and stabilizers, and warmer temps make it leach faster. Many of them endocrine disruptors.

That said, no such thing as a free lunch. And as long as the water is kept moving, chances are it's fine after awhile. Avoid the 'stanky water fountain' effect by letting the water run a bit before drinking/using it if you're worried.
It’s refreshing to see the EPA seemingly doing it’s job.
non-zero harm but it's necessarily a lot less than making the whole thing out of lead. think about the difference between a square inch of lead exposed per joint versus many square feet. not a one-to-one comparison since the shear stress at a joint will be higher, but such a relatively smaller area it will have a relatively tiny impact.
> If this drug costs $1000/month does it really put money in people's pockets that they will use to buy other things that end up boosting the economy?

How much does being obese cost the average person in healthcare?

I'd be surprised if it was A LOT less.
Those pesky backends are so annoying, so why don't we just put a backend on every client?
In a way, it seems to have similar problems to those of unstructured programming (i.e. rampant use of goto instead of procedures and loops), just to a lesser degree (since jumps that always return are still easier to understand than ones that don't). It's hard to understand the code when the control flow jumps everywhere, even when all the jumps are subroutine or method calls. A method having a good name doesn't necessarily mean it provides a better abstraction than writing the code inline, just like having well-named labels doesn't necessarily make the code easier to understand.
Some of y’all brave posting real numbers. Good luck out there
> But what you said was that without Youtube you'd be at a disadvantage in "academic topics". That seems ridiculous on its face, unless you are somehow unable to read. My point is that I am in no way at such a disadvantage, nor would you be.

I too am from the generation that prefers to read. But my kids prefer videos, and it's not for want of me working with them to read more, they simply don't like reading and they pick up a fairly incredible amount of stuff from watching videos. Unfortunately their gullible little brains are also wide open to advertiser.

> You keep implying all over this thread that ad-free access to funny Youtube videos is something like a human right. This is absurd. Your logic would result in my tax dollars paying for your funny Youtube videos. I don't want that.

You are not arguing in a serious manner. Funny Youtube videos are your strawman and nobody wants to use your tax dollars to support funny youtube videos. But there is plenty of higher quality content on youtube and google shouldn't be the gatekeeper to that content over the heads of the creators and the consumers alike. Economies of scale and network effects translate into users no longer having a free choice in this. And that is precisely where regulation kicks in.

“Aging” is a bit misleading here - it’s about the society’s age, not the people in it.

I wonder if there is some selection bias. Many potential “civilisations” might not appear in the historical record, if they die too young. That could explain the lower risk of death for the first 200 years.
When did the rights of advertisers trump the rights of individuals? Why should I be forced to consume advertising? This is my brain, my eyeballs, I and only I decide what goes in. It's like forcing someone to breathe poison gas just because they also need your oxygen and you happen to be the only oxygen provider in town.
I can provide links that say the earth is flat or that JFK is returning to Dallas or any other topic. Those links don't make it true, or isn't just extremely stretched interpretation of some concept. Are any of the links you provided actual respected resources, or a collection of self published content? I'm unfamiliar with any of the names I saw in the URLs, and I come from a highly skeptical grounding about random links on the internet
> NVIDIA’s main target on Linux is data center cards

Linux has been supported before their were data center cards. Before GPU compute was a thing there was workstations which are in fact still a thing.

> Monitor power management and related display parts of the driver break constantly,

In 20 years of usage this appears to be inaccurate. I'm not even 100% sure what your GPU has to do with monitor power management fails which historically consist wholly and only of distros/desktops setting the sleep threshold way to short and whatever half assed hack is being used to keep their machine from turning the monitor off in the middle of their youtube video fails to work properly. The solution as with a lot of over-complicated things is simplicity. Set the threshold far higher and if you actually want the monitor to shut off do so. In any case it again has little to do with your GPU

> X11 and display support is provided at the barely minimum level which doesn’t piss off the people.

Not sure where this is coming from at all. X11 support has pretty much always been great. The most reasonable thing to suppose is that the Linux desktop ecosystem has been historically somewhat fragile especially if you insist on the latest and greatest and that Nvidia due to open source unfriendliness seems to catch a greater than average share of the blame.

Someone will post a random thread on a entirely unrelated matter without even mentioning nvidia and somewhere down thread someone will be blaming Nvidia.

> Well recently my cat got the mange...

>> Are you running NVIDIA? It's known to cause that.

>>> Oh ya I installed NVIDIA recently and my cat is 100% dead!

>>>> My neighbor installed NVIDIA and my cat is now a dog

Look at this singular thread where NVIDIA is assigned the blame for flaky wifi, bluetooth, and display power management.

If it's important, you don't want to just write it to a hard drive and chuck it in a closet.
This is, I believe, part of the Y Combinator playbook. You want to get as much growth as possible using any means you can think of then flip the pricing (or tracking) on as soon as it peaks. Alternatively you can sell your company or go public.

The company here does seem less sinister however - don't think they've accepted VC investment yet? Could be wrong.
No method today is a panacea. RAG naturally isn’t the approach you would take if you’re trying to summarize a large body of text, as in your example. That doesn’t make sense. That is not what it is for.

What it’s awesome for is asking a somewhat specific question about some thing in a book if it can be answered by reviewing a paragraph or a few across the entire book.

So to answer your question: Start by using the right tool for the job. The problem with this is: Some tools are prohibitively expensive, challenging, or very time-consuming to use.
Does moving the main partition like that have potential weirdness with some filesystems, or does this gparted approach rewrite the entire partition to a new (offset) location?

1.5~2x is my normal speed, but sometimes someone just talks slow and I'll go up to 2.25 or even 2.5x.

Other times it's a video I've seen before and I'm just trying to find a particular spot - then I might go as high to 3x.

I'm not sure about audio boosting, but I know it does let you customize the speeds in the playback list. I got rid of everything below 1x, and you could add your 1.1/1.2/1.3 options.
No, YT does not produce content. That's a very important distinguishing part of their existence. They cannot be held responsible for the content.

Very bad advice.

Some forks have clear advantages, are well maintained and trustworthy.

There are numerous reasons to maintain a user.js file also, not just performance reasons.

> Manifest V3 will stop this by limiting what Google describes "remotely hosted code." All updates, even to benign things like a filtering list, will need to happen through full extension updates through the Chrome Web Store. They will all be subject to Chrome Web Store reviews process, and that comes with a significant time delay.

So the author can't think of any other reason for this change other than to "slow down ad blocker updates"

Well how about stuff like this: https://github.com/extesy/hoverzoom/discussions/670

Where an extension dev details offers to "monetize" his extension and basically perform a bait and switch and make it malicious.

Pretending that V3 is all about ad blockers is more than a little disingenuous.
