If someone is concerned about ads invading their privacy, I don't think they would be interested in someone else MITM'ing all their internet traffic. I run pihole, Freetube, and uBlock Origin, and they are all low maintenance, and I wouldn't be interested in such a service.
8GB is enough for Stable Diffusion or Llama 13B q4. They're outdated, but non-outdated GPUs are still expensive, so they're all many people can afford.

Just sell them on eBay? They still go for $50-$100 each, so you're sitting on several million dollars worth of GPUs.

Umm, fun joke, but 2% over- or under-performance is HUGE, especially compounded over years.

It is the reason behind the common recommendation to buy only low-load or no-load funds; because a 1% or 2% load vs a zero or 0.1% load is almost impossible to overcome — over time, the no-/low-load funds will win.

> I'd love to know if there's any good reason that a bank would actually want "50 different types of bank account" on an implementation level.

Not having the benefit of hindsight?

Some banks are hundreds of years old. Most of them were computerized seventy years ago if not earlier, back in the stone age of computers. These kinds of banks won't bet the house on a newfangled system every couple of years because some bright-eyed engineer told them it's the trend nowadays.

Not messing up their bookkeeping is their number one priority. People would riot if their bank told them "sorry, we no longer know how much money you had deposited with us".
Is that true? If your opponent creates a loop but you have a spell that can end it, I don’t believe you’re compelled to cast it if you decide the draw is more favourable. Definitely don’t like that rule if it exists.

You’re completely right. The end goal of a company should be to provide some sort of dividend to the people that own the company. I understand if the company is new and still straddling R&D debt or getting market share. If the goal is to never provide dividends, the game is to pass the buck to another investor.

I don't think that's a normal experience. It may be worth contacting Proton about it and asking for support, assuming you still pay for service. May be an easy fix. Or it could be on TB's end.

Wrong. Trains generally stopping at intersections already pose a real risk by blocking emergency vehicles, resulting in cases of loss of property and life that could otherwise have been avoided. Having an unplanned shutdown that cannot be easily remedied only further exacerbates that potential.

I'm not an expert, just an anon)) but with current new reactor designs and if at least vitrification is done, I don't think there's too much danger(I mean Fukushima lvl, Chernobyl imo is not possible at all), it's just storing some solid rock underground(or export that rock to countries like sweeden that do have storage space). Again, if planing longterm is too risky, reprocessing and storing for 300 yrs should be ok, there are enough geologically stable regions for such small timeframes. Reprocessing is also nice bc with it you get extra fuel called MOL that can be reused in classic reactors and that fuel can be reprocessed again.

> Not commenting about the ethics of all this, just wondering why technically Apple can only block ~5% of Beeper Mini users instead of all of them? Could this potentially be tied to the use of an email id as the iMessage handle?

I wonder if it might also have anything to do with govt action. I believe a US elected rep recently tweeted in favour of Beeper. Apple cares much more about PR than they'll admit, and server costs for them are negligible.

Yeah, that's happening right now really? There has been loads of developments in the mobile space already, in many ways lower powered arm devices are way more optimised for AI applications than the current crop of intel machines.

This example, whilst impressive, feels way more in the "Doom running on a calculator" vein of progress though.
Oh, I would apply that to any number of things Apple integrated, for example dropbox/icloud drive.

Google does the same thing. Unfortunately, with the near zero marginal cost of software, I do not see any way around vertical integration unless the law started arbitrarily segregating businesses.

Also, Apple Music came out 5 years after Spotify, so it had a pretty healthy lead. But regardless, any non Apple vendor competing with Apple's bundled products is going to face an uphill battle.
I remember working at a company where we had a backend web framework that was essentially a DAG. You could use it to create API's where the caller simply specifies what they want, and the server figures out, through graph theory, what series of processing steps and API calls to other services should be performed (some of which can have dependencies on the results of other API calls and/or processing steps), and the optimal way to parallelize them.

It struck me as being both a very intriguing framework, and also exceptionally over-engineered for the kind of problem it was solving (since an async-await architecture gets you all the same benefits).
If the list is of objects they can't yet reliably detect, then how would they implement your suggestion to detect those objects? I'm sure they have a lower tolerance for false negatives, so of course the known problems must be hard-coded.

People can also push back against Apple by voting with their wallets.

Apple has been able to create their ecosystem by exerting control over it. If someone doesn't like it, they can start their own business giving people what people want. Now, that's another way of pushing against any gigantic company or Apple.

There is more pain to come, the 2017 tax giveaway to the most wealthy has a bunch of pain for everyone else. 23 & 25 both have temporary adjustments to middle class taxes get reduced, which will increase taxes.

This is a bit of an aside, but I have a question that I'd like to ask the wider community here. How can you do a proper bug-bash when also dealing with Scrum metrics that result in a race for new features without any regard for quality? I've tried to do this with my teams several times, but ultimately we're always coming down to the end of the sprint with too much to do to implement features, and so anybody that "takes time off" to do bug bashing looks bad because ultimately they complete fewer story points than others that don't do it?

Is the secret that it only works if the entire company does it, like you suggest?

And yes, I completely realize that Scrum is terrible. I'm just trying to work within a system.

There’s one more point I forgot to add, though:

* When you’re a stranger, nobody has to take your word for anything.

So I think it’s okay to say you’re skeptical and would need more evidence, but in a way that doesn’t turn it into homework for someone else.
I'm 28, and texting is the primary method of communication for virtually everyone I know. The only exceptions are that I know two techy people who use Google Chat and a few people who use Facebook Messenger (mostly because they don't have my number). I've never met a single person in my life who uses Instagram, Discord, or Signal for 1-to-1 messaging.
To be clearer, the word “expert” in my comment above is in quotation marks because an LLM has more programming expertise than a non-programmer or an evolutionary algorithm, but not anywhere near a true expert programmer.
Was there a way to message other people who are logged in? Like a slack equivalent?
Totally agreed, it really depends on the case. I’ve been user of both types of products where I value extreme correctness (think of anything financial, or core software that I want to never crash like a browser), but also really don’t care if something like Spotify or Twitter doesn’t work 5% of the time I use it. Obviously that barrier is different for everyone, but that’s where the product development planning and prioritization comes into play.

I understand this complaint (I get both sides really) when it's a non OSI licence being called 'open source', but you can't just start extending that to the single words 'open' and 'source' too. 'I don't know what "source available" means, because it certainly doesn't mean available under open source licence', etc.
