That's fascinating that a film that was such a big deal even at the time, and it's not that old in cinema terms, would have so much significant lost footage.

As another commenter here points out -- it's surprising that at least one theater didn't keep the trimmed footage, or didn't ignore the trim request.
The timing is just less than ideal.

They started disclosing in July and it looks like everything was very professional and responsible only to publish the week before Christmas.

From the timeline, perhaps CERT/CC could have done more or could have been quicker in their review. 5th December is probably the absolute earliest reporting date, but published on 18 Dec after what I can only guess was nearly 2 weeks for internal review

So, the decision is to publish the week before Christmas or wait until early/mid Jan when staff return and they took the less than ideal option to publish early, presumably in case they were scooped
I did that with a few interns/junior people and they turned out to be disappointing rather than predictably satisfying.

I still agree with you, because I want to believe it pays off in the long run. But it definitely comes at a real short term cost.

> only maybe that there is some curve where building more doesn't result in increased demand

In theory sure, if the supply approaches infinity then at some point an additional housing unit has zero value. But these are houses, which in practice are expensive to build so supply will never approach infinity.

Can you name at least one US city where housing used to be expensive and they built so much that it resulted in excess supply and a consequence it is now cheap to live there (and the city continues to thrive - not talking about bankrupt ghost towns)?

As far as I know (but curious to see if I'm wrong) there isn't any case where that point in the curve has been crossed.

The densest area in the country is Manhattan, not known for cheap housing. So if even the densest housing area has not crossed that point in the curve, it's an argument that maybe it's just not possible to do so in practice.

When I was a teenager, I found and installed Apache. WordPress apparently had existed for a year or two, but I didn't hear about it for several years after. I memorized my IP address and would link people to that, and never bought a hostname or anything.

If you just want to host a blog and maybe dabble in PHP, Apache works great. These days as an adult who programs professionally, my personal site is just a directory that I point nginx to with xhtml/xslt/css files that I hand edit + things like photos. I do have a domain name these days, but it's not like you need one. If you wanted something to be permanent to avoid link rot, you should want browsers to support ipfs so you could use that.
having a kid work basically 14 hour days for years and years so they can get into the best school based on the criteria of the ivy league, it becomes very easy to downplay the importance of communication and social skills, like empathy, play, dealing with difficult people, emotional intelligence, etc etc.

this is how people like Sam Bankman Fried and Caroline Ellison develop into having sociopathic patterns of behavior and dysfunctional realtionships, just constantly being pushed to play a game of artificial metrics from the time they are children.

its almost like taking away childhood from people and having a form of child labor.

Outside of software developers (more specifically, software developers in the Bay Area), most people work waaaaay past 50. At least 10 more years, and more than a few are probably going 15-20.
Yes that’s absolutely correct. To add a little more, stimulants have a rather sordid history as weight loss supplements (almost always ending up banned), being used to increase your basal metabolic rate (burning more energy at rest). Anabolic steroids are used because your body can extract stored energy from both fat and the protein in your muscles, and they ultimately have the net effect of getting your body to extract more of that energy from the fat. Use of either stimulants or anabolics alone would have an effect on body fat, just a greater effect when used together.

Of course the better option is to use neither of them, and just have a healthy diet and exercise routine. The health risks are incredibly serious, even if you manage to avoid outright dropping dead at a young age (like many “enhanced” fitness influencers have, such as Zyzz, Jo Linder, Rich Piana…).
They aren't the dominant platform regardless of qualifier. Android has a 70% global market share. They aren't even the dominant platform in any country, barely breaking 50% in a few.

Sky cars won't happen in this lifetime due to a few factors, not least of which is inefficiency in overcoming gravity at a speed sufficient to maintain flight in air as dense as ours in here on Earth. The other factors are obviously we'd need a whole lot more airports or some kind of safe VTOL aircraft, and when it comes to safe, just look at how people currently operate motor vehicles in the US...not gonna happen. Tons of regulatory hurdles too, not to mention things like parking.

The solution to this problem as has been shown by most other civilized countries on this planet is trains, yet in the land of rugged individualism and capitalism, it's somehow not viable.
Or just leave academia. In the US at least, the job is like 80% government contracting and 20% teaching.

Teaching is great, so there's that. But literally every company will let your ad junct, and Professor of Practice usually pays more than 20% of a faculty salary. You can supervise PhD students as interns or by taking a courtesy affiliation (and often even have more impact on those students than their overworked and under-engaged advisors). And university classroom teaching in the US now looks a lot more like 90s/mid-naughts high school teaching.

Government contracting sucks, and the academic variety is not any better. I'd literally whether watch paint dry at a military base than contract for DARPA. NSF isn't actually that much better.

Who the fuck wants to be a combination high school teacher and federal government contractor? Saints or sociopaths, and there are a LOT more of the latter than the former in higher ed.
Depends on what it is. I use DALLE3/midjourney to give me ideas for furniture pieces all the time and then build them. This is obviously not as complicated as a CAD for a building but it’s still a great starting point.
Tesla says they can get NACS to do 1MW. If Tesla can engineer a car that can handle that, would they really be obligated to run that to any crazy hackjob that asks for it? I expect there some to be some minimum standard every car can use, then a shorter list of approved models that can handle more.

In that case I'm glad to say I'm a happy MX Linux user. I get your point about the OSs especially windows, but what privacy issues are there running intel/amd CPUs?
At the same time the infrastructure and their rolling stock is in horrible shape and in desperate need of upgrades and basic maintenance. Anybody who has ever taken an Amtrak knows all to well the hour long delays experienced because of a broken down freight train holding up the tracks further up. And those are on the shared tracks which are supposedly better maintained, I can only imagine how things are on the rest of the system.

In an ideal world, anyone who can access the HomePod physically _should_ have the ability to contribute items to the shopping list, regardless of whether that list is being shared among multiple users or not. At present, in order to add items to a shared "shopping list" in Reminders, each individual must authenticate themselves through voice recognition on their personal iOS device. It's not possible to add items to the "shopping list" without this initial authentication. Additionally, enabling personal requests is a prerequisite for adding items to a reminders list on HomePod devices. Even when it's set up correctly, it takes nearly a 20 second lag to add things to a list. With Alexa, it's instant without the need for authentication.
When you read or write from a FILE in C, do you know or have to care about whether the FILE comes from disk, a pipe, a CD drive, or a device driver or a network mounted drive? What do you think FILE is if not an interface?

Even people actively in the industry don’t know. About 10 years ago I was working in a datacenter and one of the severs needed some hardware replaced (new ram or something). The guy who ran the team that used the server (who sat maybe 50 yards from the server room for many years), asked if he could watch me do the replacement. He had never seen the inside of a server before and was curious what it was like. This blew my mind. I didn’t get how he could be so close to it for so long and never see it. He made it sound like he never even saw the inside of a home PC as well.

At the time it wasn’t like there was a lot of protocols in place. He could have walked up to one of a dozen people and asked for a tour on any given day and gotten it, no questions asked. Not to mention random servers sitting around the cube farm for whatever reason. He just never thought about it before that day.
It's fascinating that this boils down to the US market using the iPhone's default message app and social status being assigned to the colour of your bubble.

The default message app is basically just a spam bucket for automated texts and 2FA codes.
Plenty of sites ignore GDPR, some sites will GDPR just to CYA, some sites have cookie popups just to be polite, "Site with GDPR popup" in reality is a very poor analog for "site that wants to track me." Most sites that want to, especially for those not in the EU, just will, no questions asked.

> there’s a big difference between having ten years of experience and having one year of experience repeated ten times

Love this thought! It's surprisingly common to meet engineers with 6-7 years of experience with incredibly bad habits that they picked up working essentially at a single company that they joined right out of college. Repeating the same questionable patterns for 6 years doesn't provide a lot of growth opportunity. In this context, FAANG's obsession with hiring new grads is a questionable practice, people get stuck.

> It's best not to conflate actual measures being tentatively interpreted on the basis of a century of history with some guy with a camera and a YouTube channel

The commenter upthread "penciled in" a recession for Q3 of next year and cited your favorite metric. I think that's closer to a TikTok hit than a "tentatively interpreted" bit of pop economics.

But to treat with your actual point: it still sounds like bunk to me. I had to dig, but FRED does indeed have a chart for this (https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/T10Y2Y) and sure, if you squint, it looks like it predicts. Except that the time between an inversion and the predicted recession is all over the map. It looks like the 1988 recession took two years (!) to actually arrive, while the 1980 recession jumped the gun. And 2008 seems to refute the theory, because the inversion had corrected itself almost a year before the financial crisis (which pretty clearly had nothing to do with bond rates anyway). Also the magnitude of the inversion doesn't seem to have any correlation with the recession, the inversion swung way lower in the late 70's than it did any other time, but that recession was actually pretty mild. And the inversion of 2006 was barely an inversion at all.

Yeah, this is wrong. No serious economics seem to be pushing this.

We have an inversion right now because the Fed has been swinging its hammer like crazy and the market is responding to the fact that they think rates are going to drop rapidly RSN (which is a higher risk for longer term bonds, obviously). That explanation makes a ton more sense than some handwaving about a "predictive metric".
We get the same about airplanes despite demonstration that it doesn't happen. Material science is far enough along to avoid anything with problems.

Then, how about creating 1000 startups and operating them in parallel? Since success is mostly luck, it doesn't matter how well each one is operated. Therefore, by operating 1000 startups, the probability of success can be increased to 1000 squared.
The original Hyperloop paper had a lot of gaps. How does the thing move in low speed until it's fast enough to have aerodynamic lift? Does it use wheels? I don't think the paper talked about it.

You do need a good business model and a solid technical foundation. Hyperloop needs a lot of technical work still. Arguably this was also true of SpaceX in the early days, but Elon (and the team he assembled) could execute before running out of runway.

I still think Hyperloop is worth working on, but it needs a lot of funding. The Boring Company will get to it eventually, because something like Hyperloop is required for the Mars colony.
What are the other ingredients? I suspect one is Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and that's still OTC in the US.
These "super apps" get special treatment everywhere.

Fine, I just read it. It still makes no sense. You have latched on to the fact that meth can be sold with a prescription in the US. It's still totally irrelevant to the issue at hand.
Yes, see causalmodel's comment. I missed that the researchers trained the AI on The Pile but did some post-conditioning on MOSS, which contains GPT-3.5 output.

To be clear: it's fine for commercial / personal / etc LLMs to train on GPT. But it's not so fine when research LLMs do it: those benchmarks don't mean very much if you're training the AI on GPT's answers to the benchmarks. Test contamination is bad enough in LLM research; using datasets like MOSS in academic papers is just reckless.
> It's interesting that the article is quick to blame "increased labor costs" and low unemployment (???) but then doesn't explain why prices for some items actually went down again.

I don't really have a strong opinion on the veracity, but I think the guy being interviewed is trying to provide an explanation for why restaurants specifically have 4x more MoM inflation than groceries. I don't think he's making an overall claim about the cause of recent inflation.

As far as the relationship between increased labor costs and low unemployment, lower unemployment gives workers more opportunities to vote with their feet and gives unionized workers more bargaining power.
> Most sites that want to, especially for those not in the EU, just will, no questions asked.

Maybe for most sites, but not for most site visits, since people mostly visit just a few large sites that are too big to ignore the law.

And will countries that wouldn't be touched by the initial expected impact object to any intervention that raises their own risk?
25+ car lengths between vehicles that the NHTSA recommends

Is this hyperbole? I tried to Google for it, but I could not. The best I could find was the three second rule. Some back-of-the-envelope calcs: Length of Honda Accord (according to Google): 192 inches. 75 miles per hour / 60 minutes per hour / 60 seconds per minute * 5280 feet per mile * 12 inches per foot * 3 seconds / 192 inches = 20.625 car lengths. Even three seconds isn't enough to reach your recommendation of 25+ car lengths.

Note: 75 mph is 120 kmh

Reminds of Burning Man when people kept telling me, "Never talk trash on the art at the main landmarks. The artists are frequently within listening distance."
