If you're lied to about a "sale" and it's really just a shitty rental, we have a different word for that: FRAUD.

And the action that Sony hacked devices and removed said content? It mirrors the individual form of this ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38614624 ), which is "horribly illegal". I argue it pales in comparison to Sony's actions.
To give you another example: imagine if cable Internet companies decided to require you to pay 30% of your gross income to them if you use Internet for work-from-home.

After all, without their generous service, you wouldn't be able to earn money. Right? What's that puny 30% of your income to you? It's really nothing!
So then wait a few hours and call back and now you're a new customer!
Considering the here documented willful ignorance of Google I wonder at what point this crosses over into the criminal domain or would be sufficient to give raise to class action suits of fraud victims.

Yes I was just responding to the hypothetical of if they creating and seeding torrents of their own content, which is not something that is alleged against Strike 3 Holdings at this time.
Benefits in a very broad sense. This includes both e.g. SF General Assistance payments and things like cleaning the streets from syringes, urine and poop on a weekly basis.
If you have competent police - than taking the drugs away is sort of a lackmus test. Meaning if they get violent - then they are a danger and further meassures are needed. So yes, jail (conventional or mental) is then the temporary solution.
This seems to be proof that return to office is NOT happening despite the scare mongering articles.
Even if we throw out all the technical considerations, you’d still be asking the user to hold the phone diagonally to get the stereo alignment.

If instead, you said “hold it normally and we crop/rotate for you” , you would now have two point of views at different heights, you’d have very uncomfortable depth perception.

There’s not a solution here that would work with the 14 Pro camera layout unless you used the telephoto and then cropped the wide angle to match.

In which case you now have the issue that your users are stuck in effectively a 70mm fov which isn’t very useful for most use.

Again, I think you’re ignoring many aspects of the product design to try and say it’s possible.
> 17% of all homeowners in the 2008 mortgage crisis walked away strategically

That is a quite misleading restatement of the facts. 2 of 144 million homes in the US were foreclosed in 2008, and 17% of those were deemed "strategic". That's 0.2% of homes.
Let's say Betelgeuse exploded 550 years ago, and I happen to be looking at the star at the exact moment the light/EM reaches the earth. Would it be bright enough to cause an injury? If at night, would it make shadows on the ground next to me?

Steve was great at it, but maybe all it takes is for the presenter to be passionate about the thing they are presenting.

Elon is a terrible live speaker and yet I think his keynotes are pretty good. Also, we've all made fun of Steve Ballmer, but he was good at this as well.

Meanwhile, listening to Tim or Sundar is much less captivating. Perhaps if Tim could do a presentation about optimizing supply chains he would do much better than when he's at presenting iPad games.
It's probably not the first thing on the chopping block as there's plenty of revenue to be squeezed from vSphere; over the next 2-5 years I don't see a world where the free ESXi will be left unmonetized/uncrippled.
No you don't, you can buy a VHS player and keep using it without throwing out your TV. Or buy a combined DVD/VHS player. The only reason to buy DVDs is because the quality is better. You're getting additional value for your purchase, beyond the artificial restrictions of a mega corporation.

It’s like the sleazy old Microsoft tricks where every update to Frontpage introduced a little new construct that would ‘happen to’ cause Netscape to crash. Just typical monopolist behavior.
A tiny musician withdrew their music, so I'm not sure how relevant breaking up mega firms is.

In cases like this, a creator puts their own music on a service like Amuse. They or that service (acting as their "publisher") removed it, which removes Apple's right to stream it.

Apple didn't take away this guy's Ladybug Music.

I live near Manchester, I know, but the city centre is still nowhere as dense (in terms of dwellings) as most towns and cities on the continent. It's changed for sure - lots of old warehouses and factories have turned into flats - but the city has clearly been built for business activity first and foremost. And as soon as you move to smaller towns, like Warrington, the number of people actually sleeping in the immediate town centre falls to almost zero. Brits just want to live in suburbia and in the countryside.

I feel the same way. The new Apple videos are supremely well-produced. Of course there's something special about the absolute best of those live presentations (Jobs' original iPhone announcement is an all-timer), but there are way more live presentations that are far from memorable.

You got it wrong. They can throw a big TOS in front of you next time you login. Most users will just accept.

Additionally they sent an email out saying that you have 30 days yo tell them you want to "opt out" otherwise by default they assume you accept the new TOS agreement.
The article title is pretty funny. The menace of people taking advantage of a system that's been taking advantage of them all along!
I think it's pretty clear, the fold indicates what should be the top side of the page, and the lines indicate it wants printed side up.
Interesting, but that doesn't really answer my question. Has anyone done wider studies about the effectiveness of this sort of thing generally? As in, does it have to be tailored to a specific model or does it offer generalized protection with all models?

The Ars article doesn't talk about this aspect.

If these methods are effective, can a similar thing be done with text?
It was always clear that games like chess or go can be played by computers well, even with simple algorithms, because they were completely formalized. The only issue was with performance / finding more efficient algorithms.

That's very different from code which (perhaps surprisingly) isn't well formalized. The goals are often vague and it's difficult to figure out what is intentional and what incidental behavior (esp. with imperative code).
Rewind.ai is pretty much this - I just installed it and am very happy so far.
It's the correct definition and I don't know of anyone familiar with OS design that would claim C doesn't have a runtime. It very much does. So does C++. Every language does, except assembly.

It may feel like C doesn't have a runtime if you're only familiar with UNIX, because the C runtime is guaranteed to come with the OS there whereas other language runtimes are optional and thus more visible. But every language has a runtime.
Maybe some are, maybe some aren't. But it seems likely that the ones in the worst condition that need the most help probably skewed towards out of control. And they will probably be hardest to help. I'm in favor of helping those that need help that can be helped. But that will probably come with rules. There are comments all over this thread that shelters are under-utilized because of these rules. I don't know what the answer is.

I can't downvote you since you replied to my comment, but that's a pretty patronizing thing to say, (it's also classic big city elitism). You know absolutely nothing about me, so assuming that I'm some backward uber dumbass who hasn't even "looked out a window" let alone travelled anywhere else is not a safe assumption, and that's before we even get into my experience designing/deploying wireless comm systems.
Assumptions like that just make you sound like an asshole.

Porn studios are niche markets. They pick an aesthetic, a few camera angles, a "plot", and then record the same scene with every actor they can afford to.

So if you have been watching porn for a decade or two, and you know exactly what scratches the itch, then you can drop $30 or so to get more of just that. And if you are bad enough with your finances to let that subscription charge a few extra months, that can add up to a very good profit.

And maybe you just really appreciate a studio! Maybe you like the way they work with talent. Maybe you are tired of the "mainstream" trends, and want to vote with your wallet. If you think of porn subscription more like a donation model, it makes plenty of sense.

Commercial and residential buildings have different building codes. It would take years/decades to get approval and actually retrofit buildings. Cities like San Francisco chose to suppress residential housing and focused on commercial buildings because it was cheaper and required less infrastructure and made the city more money through payroll taxes. I'm glad they are being punished for their poor long term planning. Hopefully other cities learn from their mistakes and start to allow mixed use zoning, etc.

Agreed but the "one breaking a circle" stand by symbol, IEC 60417-5009, is what the article seemed to be referring to by "one inside a circle", given the pictures shown. I just copied their imprecise description.
If I understand correctly, your focus will be on smaller models and what can be built on top of them? How relevant do you think fine-tuning small models will be once AGI is widely accessible? Do you think smaller models can co-exit in a AGI future?

> because of how tiered connections and QoS are implemented by cable / broadband ISPs

It took months and multiple visits before one of techs unintentionally gave me the hint that with node congestion, Comcast will throttle all connected subscribers to the same X% of their rated speed. Annoying that the only way to reliably get even a 500kbps uplink out of them during peak videoconferencing hours was to pay for an 800/20mbps connection, but even more annoying that it took months of them blaming my cables and equipment.
This kind of contradicts your original comment where you claimed that the free money is the reason for this discrepancy. But if american investors would be able to use this free money for american and european startups, then they would compete on common capital market and this difference wouldn't matter.

>deep fake Elon Musk saying that he has built an AI powered trading bot that will allow you to make 1 million dollars in 6 months risk free and to be honest i can't tell that it is deep fake, it looks very real.

I recall seeing this and noting how, while I'm fairly certain it's a deep fake, I wouldn't be that shocked if it wasn't. As far as reputations go, Elon Musk really does seem like he'll say just about anything these days, and what he won't say he'll re-tweet.
Companies are trying. For many, return to office is impossible as it’s prevented by costs of living too high near offices, a spouse whose job requires a certain location, and children enrolled in school in a different location than office.
OpenStack provides a different axis of offering than vCenter. It's more aligned for multi-tenant, API driven use cases, ala cloud. Of course, you could open access to only the virtualization team, but they'd likely find the console experience frustrating. VMware even has an OpenStack product that is built on vSphere virtualization and NSX-T software defined networking.

The challenge is that companies architect their services and applications around what they have, and they may be very operationally dependent on specific features of vCenter and how they've configured those features.
I could see that. They are consistently ranked as enjoying among the happiest of lifestyles.

What I want the FCC to look into is the practice of what I call "price bumping." Where they increase speeds and features of a plan "for free" and then raise your bill accordingly a few months later and hope you're too busy to notice.

This happened to me. In the beginning, I was paying $35 for 25/5 through Comcast. It was fine, did everything I needed. But then, roughly once a year, for a few years in a row, they would announce a speed increase on my plan, complete with a flyer in the mail congratulating me on being a loyal customer while patting themselves for being such a fine, generous company.

A few months later, like clockwork, a plain black-and-white letter would be attached to my bill informing me of a change in the price of my plan due to unspecified business and economic factors.

I am literally on their lowest plan, and still pay over $60 a month. That's more than what I pay for 3 cell phones.

It's fucking sleazy and I would gladly switch ISPs yesterday if they didn't have a government-granted monopoly in my area. (And no, Starlink and T-mobile are not options for reasons I don't have time to get into right now.)
If you're trying to claim it's not "artificial" or "rent seeking," feel free to make that argument.

The police have closed a few cold murder cases based on adjacency (once Parabon got their hands on samples), so it must be pretty accurate.

Anecdotally, my profile told a radically different story about our ancestry than my family's vague lore led me to believe. 23andMe's data made way more sense.

From C to Java Code using Panama
I've lived in a place where a nice local company offered fiber. Up to 1gbps, symmetric and very reasonably priced lower tiers too (100-300mbps). They had a monopoly, and people loved to complain about issues that were... mostly their router. Though occasionally real issued happened too, of course.

A cable company moved in with introductory rates that were about what the previous rate was, but for higher dl speeds and much lower ul speeds. It was cable based. They added eyesore boxes all over the neighborhood.

Plenty of people building new houses bought cable, and some switched as well.

I've also lived in a neighborhood with ATT fiber, and have seen the same phenomenon. The cable company is much worse, but people will still choose them sometimes.

Why be competitive, when you'll get customers either way? :shrug

> When this happens, the landlord stops paying the mortgage on the office building or declines to refinance it. The bank or investors who made the loan then repossess the building. ...

Does doing this have any impact on their creditworthiness? Or are they too big to, well, not lend to?
Definitely not -- at least, not yet. Current generation language models are spectacularly bad in this application. It's very difficult to get them to role-play a character in a universe which differs substantially from the real world (since that's where all their training data came from), and they're overly credulous when responding to player input. As a result, they're likely to rapidly go "off the rails" when interacting with players -- they're likely to act unaware of details about the world they're in, to fabricate details about that world or mix in details from other fantasy universes or the real world, or to allow the player to introduce incongruous elements without being challenged.

"20 minutes outside of a major US city" is probably dense enough that starlink realistically won't work.

Good point on intent. I have to think if an artist published poisoned images, with a notice like, "don't use these for training, they're poisoned, contact me for licensing of clean images", it would be hard to argue either negligence or malicious intent to disrupt training.

Which would be distinct from one silently poisoning and reposting images everywhere with the goal of gumming up everyone's training.
Good. VGA should also die ASAP and will eventually.

The Audience stays the same, but the Show changed. E3 was a trade show for developers, actual journalists, and the gamurz. Journalists decided to make politics fashionable for the world of gaming and so it did.

E3 banned Booth Babes when their core audience was males. E3 tightened up on what was going on behind the doors with the groupies. Technology and games stopped being revolutionary or edge and now it's safe. No more actual gaming icons, we need celebrities and influencers.

This is the result of the mainstream industry adapting to SafeGaming only. SafeGaming isn't appealing to enthusiasts, just AAA gamers who continue to get taken for a ride.

VGA is going to die when their politics decide to change, leaving their current audience behind. Always happens.
But why? Companies have never been more profitable and we've been working remotely for 3+ years now. What is the point in return to office if it isn't necessary, means less working hours available for employees (I can't work during my commute), and it costs companies more for real estate? I just don't see the point unless you're someone like Apple, Amazon, Microsoft and you have large real estate holdings you're worried about taking a loss on? But even then that seems small in the grand scheme of things, so I really don't get it.
