The problem is not the company per se but the fact that the government is allowed to get away with having an "expert witness" testify in court with no supporting evidence about something like this. The government should be required to produce, and keep up to date, positive evidence about the accuracy of such systems, collected independently of the manufacturer.
It just seems like an insane way to set things up. I must be missing something because Apple is not usually a crazy company.
I think you misread the parent. They didn't have an outstanding warrant, the driver did.
The mixing of snake_case and camelCase is solved by Nim by ignoring capitalization and underscores. This feature is often controversial when talked about on HN, but I love it. I like camelCase, but I understand why a python user would be more comfortable with snake_case. Of course one codebase should set its internal style to prevent faults in control-f.
I messed up in the OP. I think $0.005-$0.01 per minute of video is about right for cleaning up the transcripts. Summaries are actually a bit cheaper. (Output tokens cost more than input, and summaries save a lot on output tokens.) Should be the right order of magnitude though. If you open the devtools and look at the console, it actually prints the cost haha. I've noticed the cost per minute varies a lot depending on the video.

I'd guess those free online services don't use GPT-4-turbo. I've tried using GPT-3 instead, which is quite a bit cheaper, but the quality is a lot worse. Otherwise I don't see how they'd get around the cost.

>So the legal argument would be that, because Apple allows for a single messaging app, and interacting with that app requires an iphone, they're effectively preventing messaging app competition.

That is weapons-grade horseshit. You can put WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Signal on your iPhone and message to your heart's content. (I know, because I've had the first two on my phone before and they did not get killed in their sleep by Apple's native messaging app).
It’s the same thing. There is no reason for Apple to buy Beeper except to make them stop.

Apple doesn’t do that. It has lawyers to use.
Seems like their business management was of the same quality as their game development.
Basically nobody's goal is to "write a performant web server" either, it's to serve data to customers quickly and efficiently. And that highlights why it may not be worth optimizing the Python web ecosystem. There are so many newer alternatives for that overall goal - Firebase, Amazon Lambda, ditching webapps for native mobile, etc - that it may not make sense to try to optimize an application server unless you work for Google or Amazon, because very few people setup a standalone webserver on bare-metal hardware anymore, and those that do probably aren't going to try a new and untested alternative.
You can't really turn Javascript into WASM without also compiling the whole Javascript runtime to WASM because of Javascript's highly dynamic nature.

You could use a more restrictive Typescript subset like https://www.assemblyscript.org/ though.

Also languages like C, C++ or Rust let you exactly define the layout of data on the heap, which is crucial for performance (look up data-oriented-design), and WASM preserves this in-memory layout (since it uses a simple linear heap, like C, C++, Rust, etc... but unlike Javascript, C# or Java). Achieving something similar in a high level language like Javascript would involve mapping all application data into a single ArrayBuffer "pseudo heap", and at that point, it's easier and more maintainable to do the same thing in C (or C++ or Rust).

Having said all that: modern Javascript engines can perform surprisingly well (in general I'm seeing that Javascript performance is underrated, and WASM performance is often overrated - sane Javascript, WASM and native code can all be in the same performance ballpark, but native code usually has the most "optimization potential").

WebKit went multiprocess with the release of WebKit2 around 14 years ago, with the difference being that the multiprocess architecture is part of WebKit itself and thus easily reusable — just embed a WebView in your app and you have it. This contrasts to the Chromium implementation where multiprocess is handled by Chromium rather than Blink, meaning to get multiprocess you have to ship the whole of Chromium and can’t just embed Blink.

That said this really only relevant for Apple platforms and Linux/Android, unfortunately. WebKit for Windows is somewhat in a state of disrepair.

I don't drink coffee because I need the caffeine. I drink coffee because I like the taste. There is an addiction component. I've given it up in the past and had the two week headache that wouldn't go away. But if good coffee isn't available, I will go without.
That's exactly what I thought FOSS would lead to (at least when I was naive and young). I thought the freedom that comes with FOSS would result in it tailor made software for people and businesses that are modified in just the right way to suit their usage. I knew it was a long shot but I had a lot of hope. "Webservices"/the internet changed the trajectory quite a bit. I'm not talking about the likes of businesses like Amazon, but rather apps like GMail, that very easily outpaced what you can do in a measly desktop computer - not to mention the issues of saving, syncing and backing up data that was never figured out/made easy on the desktop.

The closest I got to enjoy this was the various Greasemonkey scripts.
Start with Burroughs Large Machines from 1961, do a stop at Xerox PARC, visit ETHZ, Bell Labs, Amsterdam University, Caltech, Tao Group, UCSD, IBM and Unisys mainframes, Microsoft R&D, and already there are several bytecodes to look into.

The hype around WebAssembly is also not very interesting for those of us that have read hundreds of papers on those bytecodes, but hey there is VC money to burn.
I think most people think school is like pokemon training, where X minutes = Y XP, and more minutes in class = more XP, thus leading to higher-level students.

I remember when I was in school we missed a few extra days from snowstorms, so they added several minutes onto the school day to "make up for the missed time". It was so obviously stupid then, but no school administrator listened to me, because what does a high school kid know?
I always liked the saying "the meek shall inherit the earth, the rest of us are going to space." While those in space will probably be closer to Total Recall style bases vs Star Trek clean and shiny, I feel like those on earth will be closer to Mad Max. Humans are why we can't have nice things
So I gave this a go for my canvas library[1]. The results are better than I expected, especially as (I assume) everything beyond the readme is being generated from my library's (handwritten) .d.ts file!

One question I do have: are there annotations and/or additional details that I could be adding to the file, or library, which could make the output more useful for anyone wanting to use this as a reference to the library? Also: how permanent is the output - is it going to regenerate every time someone hits that endpoint or is it robust enough for me to add a link to it from the library's website?

> Expert witnesses are inherently adversarial

In the UK, expert witnesses are "servants of the court". Sure, they're paid by one side or the other; but they're witnesses, and they're required to give true, unbiased testimony, on pain of a perjury charge. Is it not the same inthe USA?
This looks like scenario B from this paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1902.04935.pdf

Mission E-DSM-E-J-6SR-1I (15.3 km/s of delta v required):

(2030-06-09) Launch from Earth
(2031-11-05) Deep Space Maneuver at 3.2 AU
(2033-04-17) Earth return
(2034-07-12) Jupiter arrival
(2036-02-24) 6 solar radii
(2052-07-29) 'Oumuamua arrival

A Solar Oberth mission requires a heat shield, which takes up weight that can be used for other payload. It's also riskier. There are also proposals for other mission profiles that only use the Jupiter Oberth, but these would either require more delta v or more inner planet assists, and so could take longer. Example: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2201.04240.pdf

Mission V-E-DSM-E-J with 2028 launch date, 26 years flight duration, 15.8 km/s of delta v required. Animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrCUsAGZjUw

Note that delta v does not necessarily imply anything about the final spacecraft velocity. Rather, it's indicative how much thrust you need throughout the mission. So how much delta v you have at your disposal is a function of what kind of rocket(s) you have and how much propellant you have.

And how far you can get with a certain delta v budget depends on how smartly you use it. To get the most bang for your buck, you fire your rockets at strategic locations in your orbit.

This is where the physics behind Oberth maneuver come in: It's most efficient to gain kinetic energy at periapsis, when you are travelling the fastest. This is because kinetic energy is 1/2 mv^2. The greater kinetic energy will take you farther out of the gravity well than if you fired your engines at a lower velocity.

To be fair for point 1, if you have LLVM IR you can just run the full LLVM optimizer suite over it. But overall LLVM IR is a poor target because it constantly changes with every LLVM release.
Or, maybe the human species has totally lost the concept of physical reality...
Sports betting and poker are the only financial type bet that are not influenced by politics or other people in general.

On the stock/bond/commodities/real estate market you need to not only predict what will happen but also predict when and if other people will realize what is about to happen and when/if they'd trade accordingly.

In sports betting you only have to study the starting pitcher and the relief vs the other team hitters, or the matchups in a NFL game. Horse races are all about the horses and their health and conditioning etc.

It's liberating for somebody who wants to make a financial bet to just think about those things as opposed to trying to predict the behavior of billions of people that move the prices of stocks.
All Apple needs to do is send a few scary C&D letters from their army of lawyers and this will be done. If they run the infrastructure for imessage, I'm sure there's something in a ToS somewhere that talks about spoofing device IDs and unauthorized use of their services blah blah Apple's sole discretion.

In theory I love it but in reality it'll be dead soon as Apple has too much to gain from the walled garden they've spent decades and billions building and defending.
You should be a little skeptical of all claims, regardless of who they come from.

I accidentally did that with the original Team Fortress on Quake, and the Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries CD. I always felt like the track from that CD that went with the `rock` map was a good match, but I couldn't really say why.

I haven't thought about that in years.
The answer isn't banning it, it's some basic regulation of the industry.

For example, look how well the Nevada Gaming Control Board keeps Vegas casinos honest.

And the casinos welcome it too -- because it shows that Vegas is a pretty fair place to gamble. You will likely lose money, but you'll lose it fair and square.
It's possible, but the AI space right now is all about the vibes and even the French President isn't feeling it[0]. The job market for AI/ML people is white hot right now and this is something Mistral has to try to explain around in an interview. I hope they do well despite it.

Two additional specifics: it was the second-most wishlisted game on Steam prior to release and upon release customers discovered that it was essentially a different genre of game than was marketed, along with being buggy and much smaller in scope.

This led to mass negative reviews and refunds and calls of it being a scam, which the company denied.
Surprise, things are hard!

There is a reason not everyone starts a car company or a game developer studio.
I hate sites/newletters that lean on the crutch of GenAI imagery. There isn't anything consistent about the style and it just looks lazy and out of place.

in this case it's the opposite - the policy allowed asylum seekers to claim and benefit from being considered to be 18 or younger when they were in fact obviously 30+

but yeah your impression is not wrong, Sweden is not a nice place lol
The reason I think it's not that insane is because WiFi works pretty well as it is. I don't know anyone who seriously struggles with WiFi problems... those that did bought a (albeit expensive) mesh system.

The combo Wifi/modem that Xfinity gives out these days is also quite good, as much as I hate devices like that.

The truth is, WiFi is mainly a "problem" for nerds like me who LARP as network administrators and want faster-than-gigabit speeds in every corner of their home.

LLMs are an amazing high dimensional lens into our society. When they get more capable and can move that from system 1 to system 2, they will just tell us that we write less in December and probably why!

Imagine being an sociologist with the ability to train LLMs on very specific hyperplanes of data.
Yes, you have a point. The "soft-books" (FanDuel, DraftKings) use the justification of being a form of entertainment as the reason to limit players. Fair enough, I have no personal issue with that.

As for who is losing money, I think you're also correct about that. Both the sportsbook and losing bettors will subsidize the "sharp bettor".

It's also worth noting that some sportsbooks (the more well established ones like Caesars and Pinnacle) do limit all players equally. That's because the do as you say and act like a marketplace to pair up both sides of the bet.

The problem with entertainment books is that they often pick a side on the bet so each side is not equally balanced. An attempt to maximize potential profits for themself instead of the traditional strategy to minimize their risk.
Yes, it absolutely does. That competing interests sometimes prevail does not eliminate this particular interest as an issue. Also worth noting that I was appealing to cultural significance rather than legal significance for a reason.

Uhhhh, what does APNS have to do with any of this?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but people want iMessage to be an open protocol. You're talking about APNS, the "apple push notification service", which is something completely different than what beeper is doing and what folks are asking for. The message schema, format, types, encoding, max length, delivery guarantees, etc, like jabber/xmpp [1]. Push notifications are sent for iMessage, but that isn't what people want to be turned into an open protocol

Mortgage Status, Rent, Income Estimates from the US Census Bureau on Snowflake
American Community Survey (ACS) 2018-2022 5-year estimates provide the most up-to-date social, economic, housing, and demographic statistics.

Off topic but I've been thinking about the difference in how logic works for programmers, engineers, and lawyers. A programmer can build a complicated logical thing and it'll work reliably. An engine can do that too but it takes a lot of effort to make it reliable. If a lawyer tries that it won't work. Because legal facts are to uncertain and the law conflicts with itself.

From what I understand the plaque thing with dry food is a bit of a myth. After all, we don't brush our teeth by eating crackers. So I brush their teeth with a toothbrush and enzymatic toothpaste instead! For stimulating ligaments, that's really interesting. I feed largely a (balanced) homemade raw diet alongside commercial wet and suspect/hope having them chew through solid chunks of raw muscle meat would achieve a similar effect.
I remember people being worried about viruses pre-Internet. You had to be careful about borrowing software from friends and things like that.
How does Apple not know a database of real serial #s that match products it has sold? Why would an API that goes to the lengths of expecting a serial # not validate and instead accept a fake "real-looking" serial # instead of a known- matched-in-the-database real serial #?
I think the point is that LOC is not a terribly useful metric in that everything is 1 LOC at the highest level of abstraction. The business proposition here is that you don't need to write the LOCs for the underlying layers, they do it. The pitch here is that it's not as straightforward for large GPU clusters.

It's the whole design. Every object creates allocation/gc overhead, bytecode dispatch is a major bottleneck, attribute lookup is expensive, objects are expensive, namespaces are expensive, etc.

You can change things internally (e.g. optimizing opcode parsing), fixed object layouts, restricting mutability, converting everything to predictable array accesses, but you'll likely just end up with something like Lua or Wren rather than Python, and people like Python specifically because of the ecosystem that's built up around that dynamicism over the years.
