The only thing I can think of is for individuals who have credible threats against them. It could be easy enough to delay the relay of that information to the general public by 24hrs or something so that the data is available but poses less use to potential threat actors.
One thing to keep in mind with crime statistics is that it only takes a very small group of criminals to double the crime in an area. There have been multiple studies showing that 1% of criminals can be responsible for as much as 40% of crime in an area. Sometimes police will catch one person, and while they are in jail, reports of crime in an area will plummet. Sometimes they will jail and prosecute hundreds and see very little decrease in crime.
If you're storing a balance, rather than a ledger of the transactions which caused that balance to be the case, you're probably already off to a bad start when it comes to design.

Just imagine if you called your bank and asked them why my balance was $500, and they said "I don't know, hit F5 and see if it changes"...
Headline would be much clearer (and more honest) if it included the actual conclusion: that essentially 100% of the effect was explained by increased alcohol and tobacco consumption among the night owl group.
I assume they want to do it but can't until they know the higher cost of the larger model works for their bottom line in that way and that they have are consistently getting enough inference compute to support that. It would probably be a very large jump in compute usage.
Thanks, I do agree, they're both lovely! :D
Software "engineering" (little to no actual engineering in this area) is still in its infancy. Civil and mechanical engineering are millenia old and we still had the Tacoma Narrows Bridge less than a hundred years ago; electrical engineering is roughly a century old and things still self-ignite on the regular, and there are all kinds of weird and poorly understood quantum thingoes at the really small scales; software engineering is just decades old.

Everything that's written on the subject -- every bit of research, fad, and personal anecdote -- is just one more experiment flailing around in the darkness while we try to figure out what it means to "engineer" software.

I don't think that makes research about it valueless. Some is good, some is not, some will get revised over time because science and engineering gradually tack towards discovering natural laws. But also, yes, an enormous amount of human effort is wasted on following practices that are often not well-founded.
I know things kind of derailed downthread from here, but I just have to add that your claim is either confusing or simply untrue. I visited a manufacturer of industrial laser welds [1], and they use 16 kWh lasers over reasonably small fibers. I don't know the exact dimensions, but the overall cable looked like… a reasonable cable. Somewhere like 10 to 25 mm perhaps?

Yes, Jupyter is definitely a contender for the crown, it's a very powerful environment. I've made use of a couple of very impressive notebooks (mostly around the theme of automatic music transcription) and it always gets me how seamlessly the shift between documentation and code is. I wished the Arduino guys would do something like that it would be make their programming environment feel less intrusive and less 'IDE' like (which mostly just gets in the way with endless useless popups).

Cancelling free discussion because someone in the past allegedly did something bad. Certainly not something I'd want to see on HN.
I wonder what keeps them from offering superior "legacy" models?

They could just say those models are less cost/efficiency optimized and raise the costs to cover the expenses + even an extra margin.
Sadly, the bandwidth of the devices is not given anywhere. Would be really interesting for certain applications.
This is very helpful in medic applications like MRI.
higher altitude means less oxygen, means you need to inhale/exhale more to get the proper amount of oxygen, and also faster heart rate. Is it possible the metabolism of people at higher altitudes burn more calories just trying to get the same amount of oxygen?
Can this be avoided by not claiming the R&D tax credit?
I confess I am far less worried about access tokens leaking to end users than I probably should be. Assuming folks are validating their audiences on tokens, I don't see as much danger on the implicit workflow.

I'm also less clear on how the extra redirect there helps? If you are dependent on the user's client machine to follow the redirect anyway, they can still get middled, right? Compromised client doesn't follow the "code" redirect and instead directly calls to your oauth endpoint to get tokens. Since this is the "code" path, they can even get a session token that they can then start using on their own? Or do you lock down your oauth endpoints such that they can't be called? (Or is there more I'm mistakenly ignoring?)
I heard pre-pandemic, Google was going to purchase that space. Guess that deal fell through with remote work.
The Chinese EVs are very unsafe. Many many fires are happening with them, but you don't see it reported due to the journalistic repression there.

The sales numbers of Chinese EVs also look good because they'll buy hundreds of cars from their own stock and then park them in a field to rot, just to make the numbers look good.

IMO there shouldn't be a tariff on Chinese EVs but an outright ban.
>This wasn't a concern for most presidents because no one has ever lost a presidential election after his first term and then won a subsequent election.

Not true. This happened with Grover Cleveland.

>Presidents typically serve all their time as president and then permanently leave office.

Sure, but my point is that it has happened before and could happen again.

>The idea is not the avoid all knowledge, but rather to eliminate influence (in either direction) between the president and the business. The president should have no more knowledge of the business than the public does

Trump would not have access to the records, but somebody could just call him from one of his hotels like I said. Putting the businesses in a blind trust doesn't solve this problem.

>An ethical president would have simply made a rule at the business that foreign government representatives stay at hotels he doesn't own.

What if one of his hotels was the best option? Price, location, security, etc? What if they would have stayed there if Trump wasn't president?

It would also require Trump to break a contract: "On Thursday, Eric Trump said in an email that the Chinese bank mentioned in the report had signed a 20-year lease at Trump Tower in 2008, almost a decade before his father took office"

If Trump did that he would be getting all sorts of grief over that. "Trump thinks he is above the law and can just break contracts because he is president".

>Instead, Trump steered them to his hotels.

I might have missed that in the article. I read it kinda fast. Could you point out where it said that?
Your local resolver would be configured to use DoT to Connect to whichever upstream server you choose.

This is a two line configuration in unbound and does not require creating and maintaining your own certificates.

9.9.9.9 is free or you can use nextdns as your upstream and get the benefits of a pi-hole in the cloud.

Everyone should do this.
An excellent quote from TAoCP Volume 1:

Pretty much all the listed cons are just about having to migrate large amounts of code (regardless of what sort of migration it is). Didn't really seem to have anything to do with monorepos at all, really. Which is not to say there aren't big cons, but they're not discussed here. Neither are the pros, really
EVs would still have a carbon tax greater than public transit.

People who can't afford a carbon tax on a new vehicle purchase probably aren't buying new vehicles anyway. Most people don't buy new vehicles at all.

Yes, I write plain HTML, and have done since 199-<cough>, with JS sprinkles in sometimes. Most of the pages of my current main site have no JS at all.

Almost all (there are some legit exceptions, but not many, IMHO) pages should be functional (even if maybe less pretty) with JS turned off.
I spent some time thinking about my answer here.

First, about 3/4 of the academics that have weighed in on this looked at the text and considered it to be plagiarism (because direct textual copying is misattribution of substantive ideas).

Also, I think you're being a bit condescending- why should we belief that your experience with plagiarism and discipline at your instutition provides a generalized view of how it's dealt with.

Next, her career is NOT ended. She returns to her faculty position with a nearly million dollar salary. my only hope would be that she is made to teach a class "Plagiarism: how not to do it and how not to get caught if you do". Or maybe the board could sue her, and revoke her tenure and remove her job.

As scientist who took pains to be excruciatingly correct in my publication record, only to see less qualified individuals write crap that made people happy go on to great success, I can say that I think I understand the incentives that science relies on (and concluded that I would be far happier as a computer engineer than a biophysical scientist).
Hm. I actually found assembly to be quite manageable. It required a lot of discipline but then again, that goes for most programming languages. The bigger problem is the use of local variables and parameters in assembly isn't exactly a 'free abstraction', but once you have a mechanism for that (relatively easy to set up using macros) it all becomes much more manageable (but then you're 20% on the road to writing a C compiler...).
That's already built in to GPTs though.
Lots of people who engage in same-sex sexual behavior have kids. Those kids are more likely to engage in same-sex sexual behavior.

From brief look at the paper, they are doing a gradient descent of the architecture based on validation loss, which does good for efficiency, but its not ground breaking. The problem is that you are still training towards a target of a correct answer. I don't think this is gonna be applicable in the future, in the sense that we have to train on other things (like logical consistency somehow encoded into the network), as well as correct answers.
What are the facts about how long AMD provides drivers for?

Nvidia provide drivers for what feels like a VERY long time.

I have the feeling that AMD gives up on providing drivers after only a few years of product life.

But these are only hunches, anyone know the facts?
I'm not making that assumption, I'm asking what factors they included. Lots of studies are poorly run and fail to account for very simple confounding factors.
> My opinion as someone actively working in the field is simple: an indie game is a game where the creator(s) of the game have full control over its vision.

Even if the mega-corp paying the dev team's salaries pinky promise to be hands off on creative decisions, the dev's themselves are going to be extreemly unlikely to do something that will piss off or threaten the mega-corp who pays their bills. That's why it's important that "indie" really means "independent"

Kickstarter, patron, tip jars, and any other form of support where internet randos throw money at something isn't really a problem because it doesn't stop them from making games free from the constraints imposed by mainstream video game industry.

Can anyone from the Vox team provide a rough date?
The layout and font gives off a more early 2000s vibe than a 90s vibe for sure, or, more accurately, "early 2000s with 90s leftovers." The average Neocities page uses more serif fonts, basic table layouts. Also computers in the 90s weren't going to be able to handle that rain effect, smooth scrolling marquees.
Genuine curiosity whether an outlier exists in the "filter" === "include" area.
"Only something like The Q on Star Trek would be sufficiently advanced, and there is no scientific explanation for Q."

Your point of view makes the same assumption that would have been made by almost anyone in the 18th century. Anything they would have imagined would have been based on things that existed or had some theoretical basis then, and they would have said that anything else was impossible. Just as you are doing now. Or even in the 19th century: "In 1889, Charles H. Duell was the Commissioner of US patent office. He is widely quoted as having stated that the patent office would soon need to shrink in size, and eventually close, because, according to his perspective: — Everything that can be invented has been invented." [1]

When I referred in my original comment to technology that may involve a deep understanding of awareness itself, phenomenon like Q may begin to come into scope. But again, we almost certainly can't even begin to imagine the things that will emerge because, today, we simply don't have any basis to make the necessary extrapolations.

You can set the Start Address to shift the display [1], I haven't used this in graphics mode, but in text mode, if you set the line offset to 128, in 80x25 mode, you get easy scrolling (still line based though) with wrap around or you can use the offset register to start at 0 at a given scanline [2]. I think I picked up this technique from this article [3]

Edit to add; looks like you can do line based scrolling in text mode with the Preset Row Scan register [4].

Edit to add again; I think there's similar stuff in Vesa Bios Extensions (i set a SetDisplayStart, but I'm not sure I see a equivalent to the offset register), but if you're using a UEFI GOP framebuffer, I don't think there's anything similar, and you have to manage scrolling yourself. :(

Legal butt-covering in two forms, I'd guess. They said a lot in detail about early models training data sources that could be used against them for spurrious but costly legal attacks. And the old models aren't quite as heavily aligned/censored as the new ones.
> In its certification test, Airbus was required to prove that its A350 aircraft can be evacuated in less than 90 seconds.

I literally laughed out loud at this.

People can't seem to orderly exit a plane under regular conditions, without panic, without smoke, without an incline. I'd love to see the videos of evacuations during the certification process.

I also have to wonder if they have a representative group of body sizes, age, and physical ability in their tests.
makes me wonder if 'commercial grade' nowadays also features a repair contract where shit constantly breaks like the micky-d's ice cream machines...

i would be interested if you have more url's for commercial/restaurant grade products though (quite frankly im irked at buying a toaster that is an absolute piece of trash, among other things like amazon's-cheapness-trend ect ect)
Listening to customer feedback doesn’t mean implementing features they want. It means understanding the issues they’re having within the context of what you’re making. For example all the soulslike games have been heavily patched after release based on player feedback, the most obvious recent case being the tutorial entrance in Elden Ring.
You don't need tricks to do it with VGA. There is a register specifically for that purpose. You can do it with CGA as well but that does require tricks.

(Like reprogramming the CRT controller on the fly to have reduced height lines at the top and bottom of the screen while doing the smooth scroll).
Can you give concrete evidential examples that refute his claims?

One hypothesis is that long covid is caused by reactivated Epstein Barr virus or other herpes family virus.

It hasn’t been confirmed but it seems clear that the initial Covid infection has great impact to the immune system and triggers all sort of collateral effects.
I made Flash games back then and had a personal website I kept them all on. I got a huge burst of traffic thanks to someone adding my site to StumbleUpon (my webhost had analytics and would show me referral links). Ran out of bandwidth several months because of it.

Most of them are only on here[1] now, or in one of the Flash game archives. I should figure some way to get them up and playable elsewhere again. Been debating getting an itch.io page going or something.

The trick here was that of course my friend did not use her own sensitive bank information to ask for the loan - she asked for test data, and the company provided her with data. What she did not realize is that the data they fed her were things she had created in her own name earlier in the scam. For example, she opened a bank account in her own name quite early, after some trust was built. The data she used for that didn’t seem that sensitive to her, and she made sure the account was not a paid one and so on. And she was right - that account in itself was not what screwed her over. Days to weeks, and dozens of assignments, later when she applied for the loan, the test data they provided to her upon her request were partly from that opening of a bank account. So from her perspective it was a competely new flow to test for an existing customer - the bank - with test data provided. They even changed the login data a bit so that it looked like a different account.
Since this was framed to der as a test as close to reality as possible it didn’t seem off that the „test account“ showed her her own name.

From the perspective of the bank it was an existing, verified customer applying for a loan. This was a really, really clever bit of social engineering.

On the other side, though, there was a huge financial incentive to discredit ivermectin.

If it turned out that ivermectin was effective at treating covid, the emergency authorization would no longer hold, and it would have ended the extremely lucrative business of covid vaccines. There was incentive to design studies that, on purpose, applied ivermectin incorrectly (not the right time, not the right dosage).

In the media, ivermectin was described as horse dewormer, a fake story about hospitals being overwhelmed by people overdosing ivermectin was repeated for weeks in mainstream media, even though before covid, it was considered a low risk medication, and was described as a wonder drug.

I'm not implying ivermectin successfully treated covid, mind you. I'm just saying that it's hard to trust the people that were saying it doesn't and, going further, they said it was a silly dangerous idea to even try using it for treating covid under medical supervision.

With that in mind, I can see how some people could come to the conclusion that, if big pharma and its lackeys in media and government want to discredit it so hard, it might even work.
