Being economically strained is relative. Middle class people clutch their pearls at the thought of having children before they have completed their master's degree, have their 4 bedroom house in a safe neighborhood with good schools, maxed out retirement accounts, and a membership to Whole Foods. Broke people have a different idea of what necessities are so they have no problem pumping out kids.
The case was, like any case, based on the specific facts.

Other than the visualization, what specific aspect of non-Euclidean space is leveraged? For instance, if you were project the space on to a rectangle, what would fundamentally change about the game?

The coolest non-Euclidean game ideas I've seen involve violation of the triangle inequality of metric spaces, i.e. the shortest path between two points is not necessarily a straight line (e.g. Portal).

Just from the article, I can't tell how the projection fundamentally impacts game play.
That may be so, but if her reputation has been “ruined” that’s probably down to her own admission.

I’d also add that if she were merely using AI to translate her own words from her native Mandarin into English it would have barely rated a mention (at least not in the NY Post).
I feel like there is a way to get around this where you use as many materials (books, newspapers, crawling websites etc) to generate the LLM so it can be good at reasoning/next token generation but it can only use reference knowledge files to answer your question that a user uploads at the time of asking.
That's what Chuck E Cheese should be doing. They've got the playground/arcade business to be able to subsidize their pizza business to out-compete every other pizza chain out there. Instead, they're cutting costs on both fronts to have...two bad businesses.

> Two recent studies in the United States show, that in some circumstances, families whose income has increased will have more children.

There's a massive gulch between "too poor to have ubiquitous access to birth control and healthcare" and "rich enough to provide the upbringing I desire for my child". Most Americans exist in that gulch.

> But something happened to the American family over the last three decades: that downward slope became a U-turn. Women in families in the top half of the income spectrum are having more kids than their similar-earning counterparts did 20 years ago. Women from the very richest households are now having more children than those less-well off.

https://qz.com/1125805/the-reason-the-richest-women-in-the-u...

Give people enough resources and they'll have more kids. But it takes a lot of resources, and an increasing amount year by year, to hit that mark.

> ChatGPT keeps redownloading works to avoid the issue of keeping permeant copy’s of the training material

I don't know enough about how ChatGPT works to know whether or not that's true, but from an engineering standpoint it certainly sounds wrong because of how insane it would be if true, and I'm not at all convinced that you're right about this given how poorly you understand the other stuff you're trying to argue that I happen to know you're wrong about, so it doesn't seem unwise to conclude that the same is probably true about your claims here. But it doesn't matter, anyway:

Wrong. OpenAI keeps asking for copies, NYT keeps giving them out (whether/despite OpenAI having/not having "permission" or not). Not copyright infringement, let alone "obvious copyright infringement".

I'll agree that hands on the wheel is a poor proxy for actually paying attention. On the other hand, actually paying attention is what you're required to do if you want to drive a car, so if anyone has difficulty with that then maybe they should turn "autopilot" off, rather than disable the safeties?

> Perhaps Yum Brands has the data

This is a decision made by two large California franchisees. Yum Brands was quoted in the original BI article that they had nothing to do with this.

> Pizza Hut, owned by the Taco Bell parent company Yum! Brands, said the company was "aware of the recent changes to delivery services at certain franchise restaurants in California."
> "Our franchisees independently own and operate their restaurants in accordance with local market dynamics and comply with all federal, state, and local regulations while continuing to provide quality service and food to our customers via carryout and delivery," Pizza Hut told BI.
I haven’t found it to be the case that hunters are environmentalists except for some post hoc rationalization. It really just reduces to a hobby of killing animals at least with anyone I ever hunted with in my teens. And they were all right wing Texans, definitely not anyone who would sign on as an “environmentalist” except when in cases where they can glamorize their hobby.
Learning any subject in any domain, deeply has value, and that learning is transferable. I think when the analysis is done, saying that chess doesn’t make one smarter per se, the researchers are starting from a baseline where student a and student B are equal in all regards, and in addition to student B has learned to chess. While student a might not know chess they could have spent an equal amount of time learning something else and it’s that time learning things that’s important not necessarily the subject matter.

New cars are generally a luxury good. The introduction of EVs hasn't changed this.

Roughly now the first generation of mainstream EVs are entering the second hand market for people who buy 3 year old cars. They're still in short supply as EV sales have grown rapidly since 3 years ago. People who would only buy older cars will need to wait even longer.

Leafs and other first gen EVs are available too, and are fine if you can cope with their shorter range.

I know this is very mildly complicated and that's enough for an unhinged right-wing conspiracy to be born, but I'm still amazed people have the confidence to repeat such obvious nonsense on HN as if it was a boomer Facebook group.

This is getting ridiculous. How many iMessage exploits have there now been via attachments? Why aren't Apple locking down the available codecs? Why isn't BlastDoor doing its job?

This is really disappointing to see time and time again. If a simple app to send and receive messages is this hard to get right, I have very little hope left for software.
NY Times sues OpenAI, Microsoft for infringing copyrighted works
I recently put something together similar to this, to switch between my personal PopOS/Windows machine and my work Macbook Pro.

I used one of these manual USB switchers, (https://sabrent.com/products/usb-sw30), and connected its switch to a Raspberry Pi 4B via GPIO (4B is overkill by wanted hardwired network). There's a small separate keyboard (which will later be a macro keypad of some sort), connected to the Pi. Using inputexec (https://github.com/rbarrois/inputexec) to detect keypresses and then firing off a specific script to send a network request to the LG TV I use as a monitor to switch the source, and then set the GPIO connected to the USB switcher to high or low to switch the keyboard/mouse to the other machine.

I can also turn on/off the TV using the same WebOS API (and Wake-on-lan) as used during the source switch. A Kasa smart outlet also gets toggled to turn on/off a BenQ ScreenBar Halo (https://www.benq.com/en-us/lighting/monitor-light.html).

So with 4 different keypresses, I can switch to Work, to Personal, turn off monitor and light, and turn on monitor and light.
I prefer compiled and statically typed languages myself, but it seems a bit absurd to not consider Python a general purpose programming language. It's Turing complete, has one of the most fully-featured standard libraries in existence, and can interface with native libraries.
No, the grammar can do OR statements. You provide two grammars, essentially. You always want to tell the model about the expected response formats, so that it can provide the best response it can, even though you’re forcing it to fit the grammar anyways.

In JSON Schema, you can do a “oneOf” between two types. You can easily convert a JSON Schema into the grammar that llama.cpp expects. One of the types would be the success response, the other type would be an error response, such as a JSON object containing only the field “ErrorResponse”, which is required to be a string, which you explain to the model that this is used to provide an explanation for why it cannot complete the request. It will literally fill in an explanation when it runs into troublesome data, at least in my experience.

Then the model can “choose” which type to respond with, and the grammar will allow either.

If everything makes sense, the model should provide the successful response you’re requesting, otherwise it can let you know something weird is going on by responding with an error.
Good questions. I don't happen to know, but don't metals survive in the earth - whence they are mined - for essentially eternity?
> Are temp workers for DoorDash et al. paid the new fast food minimum wage when performing contract work for fast food businesses in California?

Yes and no, if my understanding of the current CA gig economy is correct.

They will be guaranteed $20 an hour (edit: plus a 20% premium?) while picking up and delivering, but earn nothing while waiting to receive an order to work on.

This may seem bad on the surface, but many delivery folks I have spoken to value the flexibility of not having to be on someone else’s schedule.
> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_preferences

The secondary term here, "legacies" and "legacy students", are probably where most people have heard it, it's used in movies that involve sororities, when the snobby characters are gossiping: "How did she get in?" "She must be a legacy." and such.
It's not necessary for the author's purpose of providing more data. We're only training on one kind of input so far, text, from which these models have built some understanding of the world. Humans train on more inputs, and the data to provide those inputs for training a model is readily available, in far larger quantities than individual human brains consume. Data is not the issue.
I genuinely think adding "classes, class inheritance" to Lua is a downgrade. There are many different systems, which you'll still encounter when using other Lua libraries anyway. Why add another?

Requiring C++17 to build is also a downgrade.

The lambda shorthand looks fine. Typing might be useful. But it says that's WIP so I'll have to try it out more than the examples. Default arguments, named arguments, the added general operators and safe navigation operators are generally useful and positive changes.

Seems to me very high income families have more kids, or otherwise, families with a stay-at-home mom will have far more children than in two-income households.

Among the pressures here is a lack of support from grandparents, the affordability of daycare, availability of maternity leave (and by extension, the tolerance workplaces will have for it and how often).

It's such that middle-class earners can see a dramatic change in lifestyle if they have more kids, which they don't want to compromise. In poor countries, it doesn't matter: the woman will stay at home, child mortality is high, you won't have contraceptives usually, etc. Another child is another worker (like the old days over here).

Is this necessarily true? In Rust programs, operations do not operate on a shared global state – at least not in the way I think most people would understand 'effects on a shared global state.'
…but this is pizza, and pizza is a somewhat unusual food that is both commonly delivered and degrades quite quickly after being prepared.

So a nearby pizzeria with its own delivery drivers that has a degree of operational competence can get that pizza in a car immediately, which means that the customers get better pizza, which means they order more pizza from that store.

Uber Eats and DoorDash don’t seem to manage to get pizzas into a car immediately.
I think these kind of individual experiences are not useful to explain the overall issue, there are a statistically relevant amount of people who can’t move out and so don’t have kids, if countries want to remain relevant and not suffer from a demographic decline, the issue need to be solved, now someone can’t hold a job, someone might he smoking weed, it’s irrelevant, the solution has to be found at scale, without focusing too much on single cases
The point is that it's incorrect to think of the US (or any other country's) IC as a force of nature, blasting out 0days to random civilians just for kicks. These things are expensive, very expensive, and are carefully orchestrated. They don't look anything like the average civilian's security breach, which is somewhere between "accidentally leaked their own password" and "TSA asks you to unlock your phone."

Please accept my apologies. I mean that the ostensible reason for copyright is to protect and thereby incentivise the production of artistic work. By extension, without copyright, artists would not create anything. But artistic work existed before copyright was created in law in 1710. Ergo, protection of 7 years would seem more than generous when, for example, builders are not paid every time somebody enters their buildings, or lawyers are not paid every time somebody reads the contracts they wrote.

I ordered pizza just recently and it was delivered by a third party DoorDash delivery person.

I was a little annoyed at the time, but now that you've put it like that, it makes a lot of sense.
This is what pizza hut has become where I live. All the large locations with their iconic hat-shaped roofs have closed. Instead, they're all operating out of hole-in-the-wall sized locations in strip malls. Barely more than a pickup counter and some bar stool seating by the window.

If you exist on real estate you're going to pay rent to someone. Even if you manage to find some parcel of public land to operate from you're still paying a lease/mortgage on your shipping container kitchen and all of its contents. You're going to have to pay insurance on the operation.

The best bet would be to pool resources to operate a single kitchen with multiple individual pizza companies as tenants. Each could run their own prep stations but use shared ovens. But you're back to rent dominating costs even if it's lower than having your own kitchen and oven(s).
I think “free” in the sense that it was the same price whether you picked it up or had the place deliver. You only had to tip the driver. This was for delivery only places like Dominos/local chains near me.

The couple of dollars extra for delivery fees started maybe in the mid/late 2000s where I am (midwest USA).

They basically are ghost kitchens already. Who eats at a pizzeria? The last time I can remember doing so in like 2 decades was in NYC. They have the store fronts so people can pick up rather than deliver.
