And in the Christmas spirit, he made his big discovery while cheating with his wife on a Christmas retreat in 1925-1926

>A few days before Christmas, 1925, Schrodinger, a Viennese-born professor of physics at the University of Zurich, took off for a two-and-a-half-week vacation at a villa in the Swiss Alpine town of Arosa. Leaving his wife in Zurich, he took along de Broglie's thesis, an old Viennese girlfriend (whose identity remains a mystery) and two pearls. Placing a pearl in each ear to screen out any distracting noise, and the woman in bed for inspiration, Schrodinger set to work on wave mechanics. When he and the mystery lady emerged from the rigors of their holiday on Jan. 9, 1926, the great discovery was firmly in hand.

He was also an admitted pedophile. It is possible that that "mystery girlfriend" he was with while coming up with his revolutionary perspective on quantum physics was an underage girl he was grooming

> I would bet that even physicians aren't 100% consistent in their diagnosis of autism.

That's because autism is diagnosed by using the DSM. You can take an x-ray of an arm and see the fracture, but in order to diagnose autism you have to determine 'persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts'.

It is all dependent on how society defines things, and is fluid (and IMO, somewhat dubious).
I'm saying the line between the two is largely of our own making. The push towards OO and component models meant a strong separation between the two layers -- this was and is accepted as the "right" way to model things. But it comes with the cost of leaky abstractions, potentially broken isolation models, and high non-essential complexity by nature of the constant transition between components.

If it wasn't for this, we could be looking at DB architectures in which application logic co-habits with the DB. This doesn't imply application logic in the DB, but means that the DB's view of the data moves its way up into the application. Where the logic gets execute isn't as much the concern as what that logic operates on and that the data isolation model is consistent.

I am also of the opinion that the relational model, with its predicate-logic view of the world, is a richer way to model information than objects. So that's my bias.

A lot of this is straight out of the "Out of the Tarpit" paper, FWIW.

These satellites are in geosynchronous orbits. The minimum latency of an interactive exchange with something on the internet is a major fraction of a second. One might think of something like ssh being almost perfectly unusable, and it is, but consider how much back and forth there is with web pages being rendered these days.
Having lived with synchronous satellites for a couple years I'm here to tell you they absolutely stink for much beyond watching streamed content and downloading files.
Something like Pi Hole to avoid wasting time with junk would be valuable in this setting and doubly so if Pi Hole's name server caches effectively.
The basic principle involved with these services is statistical multiplexing with a constrained composite link speed. Translated, that means the more subscribers there are the less bandwidth during busy times. So although Hughes touts up to 100mbs down you won't see that unless you use the system when most are asleep.
Finally, if this system is truly advanced it will support alternate ground stations. Without that you get the astonishing experience of blackouts when thunderstorms visit the ground station.
Some mods change biter behaviour to make them smarter, such as Rampant. Others change the entire gameplay loop, like Warp Drive Machine. The mod ecosystem is huge, and it's far too early to claim you know for sure it'll be boring.

That would be fine if it were consistent, but in the tomato sauce only "tomato" is highlighted despite the tomato in both coming from tomato and puree. What happened for the most part wasn't a net decrease in tomato but a shift in the relative proportions of the kinds used. Why not highlight the shift in proportion instead of just the drop in one component?

What happened wasn't a drop from 73% tomato to 46% tomato as the highlighting would have you believe. Instead it's a change from 73% tomato/14% puree (total 87% tomato) to 46% tomato/43% partially reconstituted puree (total 89% tomato). It's actually more tomato than ever - while costing 20% less.

Calling this "shitflation" seems like quite an arbitrary judgement from someone who hasn't tried it? Especially when it's 1/5 less expensive. What if it tastes better? What if it takes less than 20% worse?
I totally relate to this, but from the exact opposite perspective. I'm old-school, everything is a "file" to me. It's still weird to me that modern tools have abstracted away from "files" to just data. I'm not saying it's bad, it's just so different than how I came up.

> But arguably, logical gates are much more conceptually primitive than most of those automata above! They are basically an implementation of propositional logic, albeit potentially with a dimension of time and delay. And they are nonetheless somewhat close to how actual computers work. So why do they ignore them as a model of computation?

Simple: logic circuits for propositional logic are not Turing-complete, and in a lecture about theoretical computer science one wants to teach such more sophisticated, mathematical models of computation.

On the other hand, in basically every beginner lecture about computer engineering (in German: "technische Informatik"), they will teach you how how the transition function of a finite-state machine can be implemented via combinational logic (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinational_logic), which can be transformed into logic gates for implementing a Mealy machine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mealy_machine) or Moore machine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore_machine) in hardware.

I’m one of the people saying “So what?”

If your search for “chloroform” is the only evidence against you then you’ll probably have a decent chance to beat the flimsy case.

If your search for “chloroform” is accompanied by the purchase of ingredients to make chloroform, posession of a bunch of rags that smell like choloroform, etc., then your chances look less rosy.

In absolute numbers, the harm from weed is increasing as more people use it. As a rate, it’s a rounding error compared to alcohol.

For instance[1]:

“According to the 2022 Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 29.5 million people ages 12 and older (10.5% in this age group) had AUD in the past year.”

Compare that to[2]:

“The incidence rate of cannabis-induced psychosis increased steadily from 2.8 per 100 000 person years in 2006 to 6.1 per 100 000 person years in 2016.”

You’re orders of magnitude more likely to suffer harm from using alcohol than cannabis. I’m saying that as someone who enjoys the occasional drink but doesn’t use weed; I don’t have skin in the game.

I'm afraid I'm still perplexed. The argument is just plain bad. Even the most steelmanned versions of it are bad.

That's fine. Anselm doesn't really need to prove the existence of God. Christians don't need to prove it; they have a Bible that they take as fundamental revelation. They know that this argument isn't going to convert anybody on its own.

What I'm perplexed by is why philosophers keep treating it as if its worth steelmanning. It's not going to get any better. The "better-than-all-other-things" definition is meaningless and doesn't tell us anything we want to know about God. Nor is it Biblical; it doesn't prove anything at all about the Bronze-Age-Middle-East deity Anselm believed in.

It feels like philosophers really enjoy beating a dead horse.
Or...you're unable to lead high skilled people.

I remember when scamming in the late 90s was people setting up 'adult s3x lines' and the owners would get people to blue box the lines, I think people could make $30,000USD per line. People also used pbxs to ring the lines. People also used to sell international calls via hacked pbxs.

I read in the New Zealand press that most phone crime is unprotected pbxs, Now that the telphone infrastructure has become unbundled Telecom New Zealand doesn't care about international toll fraud if you are not using telecom, and they won't contact you if there is a sudden spike of international calls like they would when they had a monopoly upto the 90s.

I don't know why people would still fraudulenty call overseas because of fibre optic cables and high speed internet, the only reason I can think of is that they want it to be harder to trace the call. If you used a stolen card and rang a home country direct and got the operator to place the call, your voice is still being recorded so your still being busted.

I have a strong dislike for scammers, I worry about elderly and the vulnerable (my parents) but I don't know the conditions that led them to that place.
I think you've misunderstood the terminology a bit. "European options" and "American options" don't mean "options in Europe" and "options in America"; they're just names for two different styles of options. I assume there is some real geographic origin to the naming convention, but I'm pretty sure both exist in both places.

Other geographic naming styles for options are definitely more arbitrary; Asian options are called that simply because they were invented in Tokyo, for instance, rather than necessarily being particularly common in Asia. Meanwhile Bermuda and Canary options are called that because they're somewhere inbetween American and European options in terms of how they work; they have no real connection to Bermuda or the Canary islands.
They did a pretty good job of shutting SF down for APEC last month while they met behind closed doors. But that's on behalf of rich people, not the scammed.

It appears they also report good results for predicting symptom severity. It's less obvious how the cameras etc would leak into severity. Unless it actually works (it does seem a bit too good to be true), I'm thinking the test set was in the base model or something
People keep spreading this incredibly misleading statement - god knows I do not like Apple's closed-source behavior, but at this point people are basically just spreading lies about the situation

By all accounts, Apple's /only/ stance was that if WebGPU used SPIR-V it would be a non-starter for them, due to ongoing legal issues between Apple and Khronos.

Apple actually proposed WebHLSL in collaboration with Microsoft, to have HLSL be the standard.

Mozilla employee's stance[0] was that SPIRV was too low level, did not fit with the goals of WebGPU portability and security, and expressed concern that Khronos may add functionality to SPIRV they cannot support in WebGPU like raytracing instructions .. 'So we'd always be on the verge of forking SPIR-V in some way.'

It was also noted by many people that even if a bytecode format was used, it would still have to be translated to the target (HLSL/DXIL, MSL, etc.) in almost the same way a text format would.

Nobody proposed a 'GPU WASM equivalent' or an alternative bytecode format, only SPIRV was ever considered AFAIK.

The hard truth is that shader compilation is a fucking nightmare, people do not realize how bad it is across the different native APIs. SPIR-V is good, but it doesn't solve that - and presents other challenges if you are a web browser API. Vulkan and SPIRV are not the golden goose many make them out to be.

Is this "just" them not knowing DB isolation levels, or some ORM "layer" rug-pulling from under them?

To me ORMs in general have often too many layers of implicit and surprising behavior.

And in a vain attempt to hide their ugly and complex faces, often the situation is made even worse by putting more "layers" in front of them.

Now besides being a specialist in your language, you also need to have somewhat deep knowledge of your DBMS, your DBMS driver, your ORM and in all the layers someone put in front of the ORM, just to not shoot yourself on the foot in a spectacular fashion.

Because PWAs on mobile remain kind of underwhelming still. Native APIs are missing, navigation stacks are not there and performance is still quite bad even on higher end phones, although the last one is probably implementation specific.

Eh, I grant your point but it's probably higher than you might think. I was an early and devoted (and thus usually broke) Compuserve user, and visited the now-preserved building back in the mid-90s. The CIS user base skewed, I would say, heavily nerd, and heavily enthusiast, and it wouldn't surprise me to learn somehow that a large percentage of the people who used the service, at least in the early days, knew where it was headquartered. Certainly would not have been true after the AOL acquisition.
Most ads I see on YouTube are very dubious and poorly made. A reasonable ammount are plain fraud. It is very frustrating going to "ad center" and reading about how the advertiser did not verify his identity.

DEA rescheduling would be the "executive fiat" and is more undo-able than pardons.

The DEA is entirely under the control of the executive. So if you want a more permanent solution, the only one is legislative, and that is extremely unlikely to happen even if there were extremely broad public support.
If the ATF can announce rescheduling of a constitutionally protected right based on random features, surely the DEA can do so as well

> I don't understand why he's singling out military veterans not to receive this pardon.

Nothing in the text of the pardon does that is "singling out" veterans.

It doesn't pardon UCMJ violations, but it absolutely includes military veterans with federal civilian convictions (unless they were in unsatisfactory immigration status at the time of the offense.)

Not including military offenses is a different thing than singling out veterans.
If Russia wins in Ukraine, there is a good chance there will be war in Europe in a few years if not sooner.
I don't support a train barreling toward derailment just because I prefer the view from a moving train.

If there is a single negative consequence from this pardon, some sort of Willy Horton moment for Biden, it will definitely derail the path to decriminalization and strengthen the resolve of the opposition.

I support pardons for miscarriages of the procedures of justice, not for freeing incarcerated people for actions that are still considered crimes. I guess "hooray, our team won today" is what I am supposed to be saying; time will show us the good or bad of having chosen the shortcut.

They did all seem to understand it immediately so it's not like they couldn't handle the work, but there's a lot of random stuff they never thought about before and don't even realize is a thing. And those are all much more basic than, say, concurrency and databases.
