>What am I missing here?

Perhaps how the pattern matching is performed?

Whether this is "AI" or not, I don't know. But dismissing it as mere "pattern-matching" grossly simplifies the technology and it's potential usefulness.

>I remember colleagues in university were working on over 10 years ago

Yes, this is how we get better technology, by continuing to work on problems.
This is sort of my sense. It feels to me more like it’s just more people knowing about/noticing it.

As a Safari user since release day I never felt like they slowed development or that they have accelerated it lately.

But people are certainly more aware. Maybe it’s more of an “it’s all coming together” for a number of longer term things just hitting around the same time?
AV1 is impressive.
What if I don't want to have an excercise routine? It is not something I enjoy so I don't do that.

I want to lie 12 hours straight under a tree and be reasonably fit, like a gorilla.

Eating healthy makes sense but excercising, by definition of that word, does not.
I'm not actually sure where the Petapixel article authors are getting the phrase "100% accuracy", as it does not show up in the article they are writing about, nor does it appear in the only other article they link to. Putting it in quotes makes it seem like a claim the model creators are making about their model, but I don't see them making that claim in general. They say the model matched all the sample data in this case, not that it's 100% accurate—presumably for the same reasons you are hesitant to do so. Unless I'm missing something, Petapixel should correct their headline.

> With a PWA the traditional monetization method of selling apps doesn’t work. So, your options will be a subscription or ads.

How so? Offer to install the pwa and unlock functionality only after the user has paid. How is that different from a paid "app"?
> I was also wondering why he would pardon people who were never arrested or detained. Felt a bit dystopian thought crime-esque, but there's likely some sort of logic behind it.

The logic is preventing you from being arrested tomorrow for your use last month. If he only pardoned those who were already arrested and/or convicted there would be nothing stopping the prosecution of people who just hadn't yet been arrested.
I don't use sponcerblock, but I do download all youtube videos before watching them and I manually fast forward past the ads. I'm sure that doesn't help them either.

As others have stated there's no obligation to give youtubers your time/attention/money/engagement, but when you've found a channel you enjoy it's natural to want to help them continue to put out good content.

Ultimately though my options for supporting youtubers are limited, because I'm not signing into youtube so I can't even comment/like/subscribe/ring bells or whatever else most people do.

I have in the past donated to youtubers directly. Mostly though I support them by spreading the word and watching their videos. Maybe one of the people I show the channel to will comment and hit the like button and buy a billion nord VPN subscriptions.
My ~2021 laptop is ok with noise but isn't powerful enough for my 32ohm headphones. My desktop's too noisy, especially for recording onto tape decks which I want to do sometimes. Also not entirely powerful enough from what I recall.

A usb/bluetooth dac for my laptop/phone (standard phone usb-3.5mm adapter's not powerful enough either) and a toslink dac for my desktop solved all my problems. Toslink's an awesome nuclear option to buzz/noise because it's 100% isolated by virtue of being light.

I also enjoy being able to boost the bass/mess with the EQ easily.
2023: A year of groundbreaking advances in AI and computing
Yes, and if person A and B are white American and African American, the AA smoker is much more likely to be actually arrested, rather than given a warning, etc. at the officer's discretion.

Dog whistles about unknowns like previous convictions or criminal history, and fictitious scenarios attempting to justify your point, don't actually help you the way you think they do.

If you're ignorant enough to think there isn't a disproportionately racist response in the WoD and the application of anti-cannabis laws on the citizenry, you need to open your eyes.

Attempting to claim "the prior convictions are known and are a factor" without admitting the disproportionate affect race has on such convictions being sought in the first place, is ignorant.

"Arrests don't occur in a vacuum." - If you deliberately and willfully ignore the existence of racism in the policing and justice systems, then you're not considering all the factors - and are being misinformed at best, and deliberately disingenuous at worst.

For example, see https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67214409 - a world championship medallist and Olympian sprinter were arrested on entirely fictitious charges of having suspected drugs and weapons - with no basis, and with no evidence of such items being found.

If you can't see how the factor of race fits into the application of these laws against certain citizens more, that's your failure - it's nothing new.
Depends if it’s a robocall.

Even if it is, when I press 1 and string their human along for a minute, that’s gotta be catastrophic to their ROI.

“Don’t hang up!!!” is my advice (and the opposite of various anti-fraud groups)

Even letting the line sit open for an extra 30s until the robocaller hangs up can multiply their costs.
Happy 30k!
We have a no ipad policy around our house. I have khan academy kids on my phone and i use this in the rare occasions my son really needs to be kept busy for a while. We even stopped tv entirely for a while. Made the house a much calmer place.

You see, screens are really great at capturing kids attention and it will give you a moment of peace, but you pay the price the moment you want to turn the tv off to leave the house/eat dinner.

The worst part of it is that screens allow you to be emotionally quite detached from each other.

I think the educational value of an ipad is also very much exagerated. Learning for young children is really a full body experience and i dont think an ipad is a value add until much later in life (possibly never).

That said, parenting is not something you figure out before you start really. Kids will grow, you will grow and the balance will constantly shift. The most important thing is giving your children plenty of thoughtful attention throughout life..
I think similar restrictions on tobacco, cannabis, and alcohol, including banned or highly restricted advertising, make a lot of sense.

There’s a difference between personal liberty and the regulation of markets and commercial activity.
Here's the google search I used:

Not a lawyer or other credentialed legal expert, but used to closely reading legal documents:

> So, what happens to someone who had a valid immigration status, but was not a lawful permanent resident?

If they are a currently a citizen or lawful permanent resident (the first piece you quote is about the status you have to have to receive the pardon now) and they were a citizen or a lawfully-present non-citizen at the time of the offense (the second part is explicitly about status at the time of offense) they are pardoned.

If they are not a citizen or lawful permanent resident now (even if they are in legal status now and at the time of the offense), no pardon.

If they were a non-citizen that was not legally present at the time of the offense, but are a citizen or lawful permanent resident now (because of the interaction between immigration and law enforcement, that's difficult but not entirely impossible), also no pardon.

You have to both have been in the right status at the time of the offense and the narrower right status at the time of the pardon to qualify.
> How do you look around at the legacy of colonialism on earth and be like "yes more of that please?"

Are you talking about human race, spreading out from our cradle in Africa thousands of years ago? Or more recent colonization? Or more recent examples of one group of people subjugating another pre-existing habitat of a land?

Because you know there are not people or animals on Mars right?

From TFA:

""
The data sets were randomly divided into training (85%) and test (15%) sets. We used 10-fold cross-validation to obtain generalized results of model performance. Data splitting was performed at the participant level and stratified based on the outcome variables. Because the data classes were imbalanced for symptom severity (ADOS-2 and SRS-2), we performed a random undersampling of the data at the participant level before conducting data splitting.
"""

100% indicates a major case of data leakage. Particularly, "When we generated the ASD screening models, we cropped 10% of the image top and bottom before resizing because most images from participants with TD had noninformative artifacts (eg, panels for age, sex, and examination date) in 10% of the top and bottom." tells me that there are known issues with the photos. Quite possible the photos of the groups were taken on distinct days and/or times and the lighting conditions is enough to distinguish the groups. Possibly, the background for the ASD candidates have a different background or a different camera sensor.
I'm not going to say he was wrong, but in my experience people here actively overestimate the chances of being shot.

One time I went to a fairly nice place that had some bars and shopping places. It was a pretty neat area, the people all seemed good, and it was very accessible to walk in. I told my family members and they looked at me with absolutely perplexed looks that I'd go in that area and were surprised I wasn't shot. Most people just repeat what they have heard.
Compliance with what? I've never heard of this as part of FedRAMP, PCI, SOC2, or FINRA requirements. Another user hasn't heard of it in an ITAR restricted context. I don't see how you could ever pass an audit if employees' personal devices are in-scope. You could never check all of the other boxes you need.

The router public IP requirement in particular is an impossible one. You don't control what address your ISP gives you. No checklist is going to have an item for some random unaffiliated third party. They might be stupid, but not that stupid.
Unfortunately everything in life is political now, so you can't just say, "Glad this happened" if you have some other unrelated gripe -- you need to downplay it, imply it's only for optics, say it doesn't go far enough, etc. etc.
> but I also don't want to hear "don't forget to like and subscribe, make sure to hit the bell, and consider leaving a tip" in every single video.

I don't know why youtube forces people do that, but it'd be nice if they fixed their algorithm so that it wasn't needed.
> Outside of the massive debt load, the paper doesn’t seem to think it’s important to inform readers about the endless, pointless, and clearly harmful chaos from the company’s last two shitty mergers.

The NY Times seems to generally view business events through the lens of top management. When unions obtain wage increases, The NY Times is concerned about the effect on the business, and totally uninterested in families earning a living wage.
> are you equating someone generating an image and looking at them privately - keeping them private

That's not what the ad showed. The ad showed explicitly using it for harassment.
Good points.

It does make one wonder why, given the history of known deception, many people have recently seemed to abandon all critical thought and fervently believe whatever the government tells them.
From what I understand, if you want to farm in a way that prioritises taste and quality over cost, you need to get that Organic certification. Otherwise, consumers will not pay for it.

Meanwhile, you could also chase the Organic certification to fetch a higher price, but not care about the taste... then it's up to the buyer (mainly the grocery store) whether you reached their quality bar.

I think there's a big regional variation as well. By the time the avocados get from CA to NJ, maybe the different offerings don't taste that different. But the opposite might be true for another foodstuff.
i believe there must be indication of intent.

for example a search for -lethal chainsaw injury; followed by purchase of chainsaw and safety gear, is different than purchase of chainsaw, tarps, 5gal bleach, and a pack of smokes

I do not believe they achieved 100% accuracy because the original diagnoses could not have been 100% accurate.
It depends on the instrument, you can't autoclave the scope used for cystology for example, they're generally treated with vaporized Hydrogen peroxide. It's very effective, but not as effective as an autoclave.
You can track over time the availability of WebGP on browsers via https://web3dsurvey.com/webgpu. It is already up to 57% of browsers surveyed.
Why would you assume DEI programs led to people who were unqualified being hired? I never saw that. What I saw was a pool of 100 equally qualified people, and recruiting biased towards reaching out only to certain sub-groups of those people. But they didn't lower the hiring bar. They just only actively recruited people from certain groups.

I also saw during rounds of promotions where HR would say "here are all of the diversity candidates in your org. Let's make sure we're evaluating them for promotion and actively working towards giving them work that will get them promoted".

I never saw a case where two people were interviewed and the "diversity candidate" was less qualified but hired. Nor did I ever see a case where a diversity candidate was promoted ahead of someone else. Each was hired or promoted based on their own merits. The DEI part was making sure there were more in the pipeline to look at.
It'll be very nice if Apple also releases a standalone WebGPU.framework (or just expose the APIs in WebKit.framework) so we can finally have a true cross-platform OpenGL successor for native development.
IMHO it's a good way to get your parents to pay for your hosting costs without having to beg :)

I was in a similar situation regarding storage. I ended up having to upgrade the drives for fewer bigger ones but there are other ways to reduce power consumption like putting your storage server on a timer and turning on WoL so that you can wake it up out of those hours if you need to. Obviously this is not possible if you are serving files to other users 24/7.

If you work for a company that has any kind of audits or certifications or regulation compliance or such (so, basically any company other than a recent tiny startup), your company computer is riddled with spyware that tracks every site you visit, all data in your files and buffers, may have keystroke recording, remote screenshots, and on an on.

Even companies that don't necessarily want this stuff will have it forced on them by this or that auditor soon enough.

And that's just the privacy angle.

If you were to work on any personal projects on that company laptop now you have an intellectual property mess on your hands.
I agree.

I don’t think they see Safari as competing with the App Store. Even with the recent PWA additions it doesn’t seem to matter.

At this point I’d say Safari is 100% a hedge against being fully dependent on Google/Chrome. It started to not be dependent on MS/IE and improve what MS didn’t care a ton about.

Apple HATES being fully dependent on others for very important stuff. They’ve been burned too many times.

Safari is great. I love it. But there’s no way it is ever going away even if they are forced to preload 18 different app stores and 4 browsers on every phone by the different governments of the world.

It’s Apple keeping control of Apple’s destiny.
The return on investment would likely be quite low. Who should pay for this positive right?
You're missing the point.

All that was popular as well.

This wasn't some evil mastermind scheme to enrich the military industrial complex.

It was run-of-the-mill everyday politics.

The world isn't fair.

That doesn't mean we're all being fooled by some evil genius mastermind pulling the strings we can't see.

It just means that people don't care about what's right or wrong, mostly - just what they want.
Not a physicist and only read the abstract, but that does not sound right. One frequently hears that one can recover classical mechanics from quantum mechanics in the limit of Planck's constant becoming zero but not even that seems to be [completely] true [1] as a quick search shows. The other way around, as this paper claims, seems even more unlikely. As they mention a couple of mathematical tools that went into this analysis, maybe they accidentally introduced the relevant differences between classical and quantum mechanics with them. Or maybe just reading the abstract is not good enough and they claim something different than what I think they claim after reading the abstract. If they actually claim that one can recover important aspects of quantum mechanics from classical mechanics without introducing additional concepts or assumptions, then I am highly skeptical.

First, I don't draw the line at marijuana. Notice how many drugs I didn't list there.

Second, stepping down from fent to heroin, which I think is what you're implying, is not going to happen that fast and frankly the way you phrased this whitewashes an entire series of events that happened that gave fentanyl the dominance that it has as a street drug; the prescription pill to fentanyl pipeline is one built from a cost and strength. For one, it's much cheaper than high quality heroin. Second, heroin used to be the dominant drug when people couldn't afford prescription pills. Peoples tolerances on opioids quickly build and some subset of the population were using so much heroin that they could more cheaply inject or smoke fent. Going up that pipeline can happen in months, going down could take years.

The scheduling of the drug is irrelevant to the problem that there are and will be people who illegally manufacture and sell meth and fent. The DEA has plenty of those people to go after, even if we legalize and regulate every drug today. Why? Cost. The same way prescription pills are a pipeline to fent, meth is the final stop in a similar pipeline of stimulants.
The web is getting more powerful and eventually will negate the need for native apps as the performance will be comparable or greater. I'd view moves like this to be preemptive efforts to remain competitive in the future.
It’s pretty crazy to me that Kroger is looking to buy/merge with Albertsons (Safeway) with basically no opposition. I generally prefer Kroger brand stores, but I can’t imagine this will be good for consumers in any sense.
Good. Lots of innocent people are pressured into bullshit plea deals under the threat that they'll be charged for some bigger chrime that the prosecutor doesn't actually have the evidence to prove.

If the prosecution has the goods, make them prove it. Otherwise they shouldn't be able to use empty threats to brow beat someone into a guilty plea.
Well, YouTube’s got it 90% of the way there.

The two online courses at Coursera are based on the First Edition of "The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles": https://www.amazon.com/Elements-Computing-Systems-Building-P...

The most recent edition of this book is the Second Edition: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0262539802/

To quote from the Preface concerning what the difference between these two editions is:

"The Second Edition

Although Nand to Tetris was always structured around two themes, the
second edition makes this structure explicit: The book is now divided into
two distinct and standalone parts, Part I: Hardware and Part II: Software.
Each part consists of six chapters and six projects and begins with a newly
written introduction that sets the stage for the part’s chapters. Importantly,
the two parts are independent of each other. Thus, the new book structure
lends itself well to quarter-long as well as semester-long courses.

In addition to the two new introduction chapters, the second edition
features four new appendices. Following the requests of many learners,
these new appendices give focused presentations of various technical topics
that, in the first edition, were scattered across the chapters. Another new
appendix provides a formal proof that any Boolean function can be built
from Nand operators, adding a theoretical perspective to the applied
hardware construction projects. Many new sections, figures, and examples
were added.

All the chapters and project materials were rewritten with an emphasis on
separating abstraction from implementation—a major theme in Nand to
Tetris. We took special care to add examples and sections that address the
thousands of questions that were posted over the years in Nand to Tetris
Q&A forums."
Wrapper startups are a rounding error, what's important is that the big players in the field are releasing genuinely useful tools. Which makes it very different from crypto.
Next we need to train them for the pregnancy stage. We already screen for autism and Down syndrome, with AI it will be even more accurate.
This absolutely takes me back to the 90s.
Assuming arguendo that's true, that's a different argument than the one made upthread.
> So, your options will be a subscription or ads.

We're basically there already unfortunately, even for store-distributed software. Apps like Procreate and Pixelmator are a rarity these days.

It definitely doesn't help that the App Store makes charging for new major versions awkward, and that upgrade discounts are basically impossible, but I suspect the main reason is that most developers just make more money from subs than purchases.

As a consumer though, it sucks. Subscriptions are fine if your product has an ongoing cost to you as the developer, for example server or API fees. And I really don't mind JetBrains-style subs, where you can cancel any time and you retain access to the last version you paid for, for as long as it still works on your machine. But, while I appreciate the need for ongoing revenue to continue paying salaries, I am not interested in renting software in perpetuity—that's not a fair deal. Especially when it robs me of the ability to stick with an older version if I prefer it.
I would love that. Finally across platform AR experience.
