This is fantastic to see, although bitter-sweet considering I just had my phone and Apple ID stolen in August. I suspect the thief was watching as I unlocked my phone and got the passcode that way, although I was drugged and have amnesia (worst Tinder date ever) so it's possible I unlocked the phone for her.

However they got the passcode, it was enough to immediately change the 'trusted phone number' with Apple and lock me out of my account. Even after hours on the phone with Apple Support explaining the situation and offering to provide a police report and any documentation they wanted to verify my identity, the weren't able/willing to help me without that phone number. There have been numerous hassles to moving to a new Apple ID, including having to provide proof-of-purchase for all my other Apple devices to get them unlinked from the stolen account. But the worst by far was losing years worth of photos, which I foolishly trusted to be stored safe in iCloud and are now locked away from me and available to criminals.

This is a step in the right direction but I'd love for Apple to improve their policies around proving ownership of a stolen account. Even with this new protection, if you're ever robbed at gunpoint or coerced while drugged, your Apple ID can be taken and there's no path (that I've been able to find) to recover it.
>All variables are provided within the data.

electrostatic protein interaction, hydrophobic interaction, organic chemistry etc

all variables are in fact not provided within the data. Protein creation is not just _poof_ proteins. There are steps, interactions and processes. You don't need to supply any of that to get a model accurately predicting proteins. That is the main point here, not that you can predict anything with any data.
Line printers. We couldn't use mixed cases until dot matrix or daisy wheel printers came along.

If the question is why upper case instead of lower case, there is a long tradition of handwritten uppercase only labels in drafting and mechanical drawing when precision is required.
I never get these type of questions because it’s like, what are you trying to do?

Just acquire skills for the sake of it?
There is no independent monitor or authority that can check what OpenAI does or doesn’t do. So there is no reason to trust them. Simple as that. Tipping the scales further are the numerous instances of tech companies lacking sufficient data security, the latest being 23andme. Case closed.
Some people like VB6 and its aesthetic.
It’s not a well written or reasonable comment if you know anything about Fukushima, radiation, and monitoring.

Also, the fish that washed up were nowhere near Fukushima so it’s unlikely they were exposed to anything other than normal background radiation.
I have a simple solution. I just forbid searching for empty strings. And I also assume you can't find anything in an empty string.

We can discuss the philosophy of this for entire day, but at the end of it my job as the person who designs the contract is to make it clear, predictable and usable and I think presenting those special cases does not serve any of these goals.
I might be the only one thinking this but in my opinion seeing more than a single screen at once doesn't really suit Link's Awakening. The entire gameplay is built up around restricted scrolling: the screens are designed as puzzles to tackle individually. With free scrolling, the map looks very squairy. I think it might work if the map is redesigned and reimagined, and I'd definitely be interested in seeing that done, but I imagine that would be too much for the purists. I do like the subtle soft shadows behind the character sprites though!

Of course you should; what a stupid question.

> In February 2018, BuzzFeed News reported that laws in 35 states allowed police officers to claim that a person in their custody consented to sex, and that of at least 158 law enforcement officers charged with sexual assault, sexual battery, or unlawful sexual contact with somebody under their control from 2006 to 2018, at least 26 were acquitted or had charges dropped based on the consent defense.

Realize that being charged means that at some point, the person in custody objected enough that charges were filed by the DA/prosecutor.

It does sound like the worst Tinder date ever. What country or city were you in?
Hum, I haven't seen that graph for Stack Overflow yet. So, it peaked in 2017, but it's widely accepted that the decline is caused by ChatGPT?

That doesn't strike me as reasonable analysis.
My grandmother programmed with punch cards, have no idea on what hardware and it's too late to ask.
My father did a bunch of fortran and Cobol on USSR mainframes and then did a bunch of y2k here in USA. One of the neatest things I have from this is a printout from one of his fortran programs from I think Minsk-32 mainframe which he ripped into 3 pieces to wrap a developed large format 64mm film of some mountains that he shot a long time ago. The program seems to be called MATR1 and is doing matrix manipulations and referring to topography of the land in comments. I have it framed on my wall near my workstation.

industrialization usually requires making the same product for everyone. E.g. back in the day everyone had custom fitted shoes, now we choose from pre-made sizes.

Its not entirely clear such tailored processes can be easily automated.

The problem is that people like you who are overthrown by their own emotions talk about objectivity. The only thing you champion with a view like yours is moral relativism.
That makes a lot of sense. I recall thinking that it just tasted like slightly chocolate flavored sugar and was waxy - no flavor at all, just sweet and waxy. I guess you get what you pay for - my other splurge lately was a tiny chocolate from a specialty shop that was $1 for a single small piece, which I balked at, but it was DELICIOUS.
Another effect is replacing gas/oil heating with electric (heat pump). Fewer risks, less maintenance, less pollution.

Would love for an astrophysicist to pine in. But my understanding is supernovae are usually balanced enough to squeeze their stars' cores. This appears to have been unbalanced such that the core was "broken" instead of uniformly compressed.
Maybe because it makes it easier to read to people with impaired vision. Just a guess.
Thing to note here is that the ocean currents to Hakodate come from the West Coast of Japan, and Fukushima is on the Eastern coast. Not saying it’s not likely the two are linked, but it seems there could be other things at play. Like toxic leaks somewhere else in south east Asia.
1TB transaction per year seems pretty small data. I guess IBM stuffs are there for the stability then?
They have so much data about you that they can predict what you are going to do or look for before you know it yourself.

Technology good enough is indistinguishable from magic.
It could also be caching something that contains a token that can perform other actions. The disparate reports of different pages and being able to navigate make it sound like this is at some API level, not literally caching the console page view.
Maybe, just maybe, the economics for publishing an AAA game are just a bit different than for small indie developers who wish to publish their apps?
I was being helpful by pointing out that the code might not reflect the author's intent.

A common reason for coding in C89 is avoiding mixed declarations and statements. That's one of the most prominent differences between C89 and C99. The GNU compiler won't catch that unless you use -pedantic or else the more specific diagnostic flag -Wdeclaration-after-statement.

This one actually bit me, since in some projects where I was actually trying to avoid declarations after statements, some uses accidentally snuck into the code due to being undiagnosed! I thought that may be the case here: the author wants to work in C89, but is blind to accidental deviations from the dialect.

So that is to say, I didn't think that the title of the submission needed fixing so much as rather the code: make the code be C89, if you believe you are working in C89 and want to be doing that for some real reason. (Turns out, to my surprise, you don't know what C89 means and don't care, so, okay, never mind.)

I also pointed out that <memory.h> is a nonstandard header. <memory.h> is where AT&T Unix systems in the 1980's put memcpy and friends. ANSI C89 standardized those and put them in <string.h>. Glibc happens to have a <memory.h> header which includes <string.h> for you.

Code which has to work on such old systems that it is necessary to use <memory.h> should probably also be written in classic K&R C without prototypes. (Or with function definitions written without prototypes, with the headers optionally turning on prototypes using a macro, like int func PROTO((char *)); where PROTO(X) just expands to () for a non-ANSI compiler.)
There is a perfectly reasonable counterargument, in the article, which I included in the comment you're replying to.
Okay, well, hurry up and do it already then. I don't need CUDA. Just make PyTorch run nicely on an Intel GPU that outperforms an Nvidia GPU of the same cost and I'll happily buy an Intel GPU.
Maybe Alex Jones can be a tenured professor there.
Checkout the LERF work from the NerfStudio team at UC Berkeley. SMERF is addressing a different problem, but there are definitely ways to incorporate semantics and detection as well.
Even if you aren't explicitly targeting people who's primary job is that some still likely get laid off. Sheer numbers alone could lead to real damage there.

Threat Intel informs the red team, and we'll model our ops or threat emulation exercises off of that information, we also have a few members that came over from threat intel. Last I checked, Threat Intel engineers don't write malware to simulate malware real threat actors that target a companies industry use.

I think you're speaking from your limited experience at your own company. Again, you have to have a mature blue team before you're ready for a red team. Most orgs aren't ready for that, especially if you think Qualys covers your threat models. That's just vulnerability management and might catch some apps/hosts that missed the patch cycle.

If it's word salad, maybe its because you're out of your depth when and ignorant of how these programs are supposed to work.
This looks brilliant. What’s the use case you have in mind?

I know some accounting software have this feature.

I think adding more examples from different stores would be solid.

Good luck!

Browsers on macOS can use custom rendering engines. On iOS, they have to all use Apple's provided version of it (which does not support WebExtensions by itself), so the two are not comparable at all.
> Directed acyclic graphs are muched discussed in comp-sci, but octopus appears to be the first reusable, turnkey, ready-to-wear, off-the-shelf implementation of a DAG for application development, in any language, that I'm aware of.

I may be misunderstanding what this is, but back in the J2EE days ISTR Struts having something very similar to this, ie a flow from page to page declared apart from the actual page logic itself. Edit: and all done in XML, so obviously doesn't count!

Cool project though!
Relevant to mention MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) in this context, which use much older nm tech. Be it digital micro mirror devices¹ or gyros². Or photo/laser diodes.

Given the physical limitations, as well as the problems we have with code base security it might be time to aim for cheaper production of something in the region of 180nm instead.

Looking at how old much of the standard weaponry used today is (TOW 50 years with an actual physical gyroscope, Javelin still 25 years³), the demand from the military alone should cover the initial cost. Especially if you look at the ludicrous prices western countries payed for even dumb artillery shells.

I'll try, but my 3 previous GPs, who were all better than my current one, are no longer in-network. Presumably the insurance doesn't pay well enough to keep the better doctors. It's a substantial amount of paperwork (both with the insurance and the new GP) with no guarantee things will be better.

I’m not shocked. People are deeply uneducated about nuclear energy, nuclear disaster cleanup, and radiation so you’re going to get the poorly educated piling in here spouting nonsense.

That's hybris.
(meta) As a platform, substack content must follow the power law, right? That is, a few authors are most productive and there’s a long tail of single (or zero) article substacks.

This article was migrated from medium, but now the author gets to collect email addresses. But why subscribe? There are two articles. Is substack an RSS replacement (potentially with a paywall)? Maybe I should just consider substack to be a low barrier to entry blogging platform that can be set to your personal domain for $50?

Definitely not trying to beat up on the offer, just curious about the real value prop of substack for “most” producers and if that’s aligned with my goals as a reader who sees a email collection modal on every visit.

Love to see it.

I myself am on a 2 year long journey (so far) to convert a ~20 year old Zelda game engine (see profile) to support free scrolling (we call it z3 scrolling, for Link Of The Past being the third Zelda game and first to implement free scrolling). It will hopefully allow for way more flexibility in game design with the engine, sparking a new round of fresh Zelda fangames.

I wonder how well applying free scrolling to a game not designed for it works. Guess I'll find out when I play this port. iirc the switch remake does it, but still limits the viewport so slightly different approach
It's cherry-picked statistics. It's just talking about a single model. Tesla has far fewer models than the larger automakers, so total sales are more concentrated in any one model.

Tesla has sold about 5 million vehicles in its entire history. The last time Toyota sold less that 5 million vehicles in a single year was 20 years ago (they do close to a million vehicles a month now [1]). VW Group is not far behind Toyota.

It's actually a common problem in lots of computing related research communities. Papers older than 10 years ago, sometimes even 5 years ago, are ignored. Because the results do not compare in terms of computing power, and because reimplementing old papers is often very hard because they are often too vague.
Agreed, Ian Goodfellow wasn't the first to come up with the idea of jointly training a generator and discriminator. But he was the first to make it work for image generation with modern neural networks. For that Ian Goodfellow deserved to get most of the credit, and he did.
The funny thing to me is that so much of the "AI software ecosystem" is just PyTorch. You don't need to develop some new framework and make it popular. You don't need to support a zillion end libraries. Just literally support PyTorch.

If PyTorch worked fine on Intel GPUs, a lot of people would be happy to switch.
I'm slightly envious of the reverse engineers that got to dig into this.

I can imagine the initial disbelief and shock as you start to piece together what the software is doing.

So malicious, I wouldn't believe it at first.
In many fields, this is how citations would work

"Introductory theoretical work in GAN was done by Schmidhuber [1], but it was not until large experimental efforts [2,3,4] on image generations that the power of GANs was revealed."
More geopolitical fires.

More stringent controls gov will put on civilians.

I don't want someone controlling which direction I walk, either, but that doesn't make car driving unethical.

I also underwent many years of instruction designed to interrupt trains of thought like "I could have that for free if I stole it" or "I'll just handroll my own encryption" with thoughts that others believe are more desirable. I don't find it so sickening, just manipulative. LLMs won't have your evolved reactions against being persuaded into things against your genetic self-interest, and presumably won't be offended by mind control at all.
Have you turned it on recently? Mine bricked itself with no warning.
I see. I didn't realize that's what you meant by dependency-free. There's still a dependency on there being a C compiler, though.
Intel's proposing the replacement of Nvidia CUDA across the entire industry is undeniably a bold move, yet it carries echoes of Steve Ballmer's dismissive stance towards the iPhone in its early days. At first glance, it might appear as a epic statement, but it seems to be of pure fear.
This isn't quite accurate. In fact, npm did ship a form of code signing called 'npm provenance' in April 2023. We wrote a semi-official deep dive on the feature in cooperation with the npm team that explains how to sign your npm packages [1].

You can see npm provenance in action on this npm package page [2] if you scroll to the very bottom and look under the "Provenance" heading.

That is a really big drawback.
The microphone trust aspect in the article seems like a red herring distracting from what could be a clearer point.

Facebook literally takes your data from their apps and internet, tracks your behavior on the internet, and feeds this data into models of you. These models are so accurate they can sometimes basically predict what you're thinking. Hence the layman jumping to the conclusion that they must be spying though the mic.

A LLM company like OpenAI, and their partners, employs almost literally this exact model. Grabs data from whatever sources to improve their models, to increase the likelihood you'll keep clicking where they want you to click, to monetize you.
Techies and power users often create network effects, in how they contribute to and promote what they use.

This is one of the reasons it's so troubling when some techies latch onto some very closed platform (sometimes by a known-underhanded company) and start making it more attractive to others, by making open source software specific to it, making tutorials on hot employability topics that implicitly use the platform, etc. When open platforms exist, and could also benefit from this contribution and promotion.

At first it was "Jeebus, I wonder what's going on with that one person, who normally uses open source, stabbing themself in the back like that." Then it became "Jeebus, are we losing open platform ground with the majority of an entire generation of techies, after we'd finally won." (I have good guesses about why, and I also know at least a couple early maneuvers that I can't talk about, but it's still dismaying how vapid the collective behavior can be.)

Why is this surprising? It's a society where the government is expected to step in and take care of you at every turn, from birth to death. That's what welfare is for, and free health care, and food stamps, government housing, government education, subsidized early child care, all the way to assisted death.

If the goal is to design a society where the government is responsible for everything, why does the population need to be responsible?
