Democracy doesn't have the same problems. If a government is not functioning properly, voting them out is better than armed revolting then out.

God, AI is ruining EVERYTHING.
> > The Japanese government started the war and was free to stop it at any time.
> No. The US started the war with economic sanctions. This is a historical fact.

Sanctions started to be imposed in 1938. But Japan invaded Manchuria in 1933 and by 1937 invaded China and had already perpetrated the Nanking Massacre. The sanctions were in part a response to the invasion of China and Japanese atrocities against China.
> Ah, you are the kind of person who consider the US the aggressor of the Pacific War.

You mean the country that colonized japan ( twice ), philippines, korea, china, vietnam, not to mention stole hawaii and a bunch of pacific islands? Yes. We have been aggressors in the pacific for centuries.

But if you are talking about US-Japan war, it is historical fact that US sanctions ( an act of war ) was the beginning of US-Japan war.

If you are talking about the overall Pacific War, then it's complicated. European and american invasion and colonization of almost all of asia spurred japan militarization and eventual war.

But regardless, doesn't matter who the aggressor was. Nuking innocent civilians is evil. Period.
What if the mice isn't dead but barely?

More seriously, what happens if the company closes shop? Would the cat flap keep working? Will it keep detecting dead animals? What happens if the internet connection is down while I'm on a one-week vacation, will my cats still be able to enter the house or would they die of hunger outside? Because they won't eat the mice, they just hunt them for the fun of it, the little cruel beasts!

One reason: you can use this as a backend to rustls, and then you no longer have anything under the OpenSSL license in your dependencies, which improves the license compatibility of your project.
If Uganda or Suriname wants a GPT that reflects their culture, they should get to work making one. Sick and tired of the hand-wringing from the do-nothings who criticize everything that builders build.

I never claimed any other OS was any different in that people who are particular will need to configure them, I'm just pointing out that as someone who never uses Windows for anything else except gaming, the cost of fixing the annoyances instead of using Wine for playing games is higher than 15 minutes.

That said, I'm generally more comfortable adapting to whatever random version of a window manager and desktop a Linux distribution ships with than putting up with the "everything is AI now!" "now with more ads!" "find things only via search!" type things that show up in the Windows UX.

This seems to excuse poor enforcement of regulations (or worse, lack of the government regulating to begin with) with the premise that it’s impossible to do right.

Yes, sure, it’s impossible to inspect and regulate every single thing all the time. But the US is doing a piss poor job where other nations at least have a decent baseline.

This is by design by the way, underfund agencies so that politicians keep getting money from their corporate buddies.

Even essentials such as food production is abysmally inspected in the US due to too few inspectors being available.

Most EU countries don’t have these issues and their “bureaucracy” hasn’t collapsed down onto itself.

Your comment is just another “this is an uniquely American issue and if we were to do it right the sky would come falling down” type argument that is trotted around everytime a fundamental issue, that has been solved elsewhere, is exposed.

Sure, for reasonable copyright terms. Currently, if you create something when you’re young and live long, a 150 year long copyright term is reasonably possible. (Life + 70 years)

Much as I appreciate someone’s rights to their work, things should enter the public domain in something more like 10 to 20 years. Even then, copyright protections are too strong when in force. You published something so people would use it, your ability to limit how should be quite restricted to protecting you from folks selling it as their own. I am also in favor of forced standard licensing terms.

Like say after five years there should be a standard streaming licensing fee for films and shows such that anyone can broadcast/stream/sell copies for a flat rate.
Congrats you just made another currency that is explicitly not Bitcoin. And it's better at being a currency than Bitcoin. Which isn't very difficult because Bitcoin absolutely sucks as a currency.
Not that I use voice assistants very regularly, but I decided they've become completely useless after Christmas when I was driving back home and had this (almost-verbatim) exchange with my Android around 11am:

Hey Google, remind me tomorrow to ...

"Ok, what time do you want me to remind you tomorrow?"

You also need something that can transfer the thrust to the payload. If you’re burning this thing as an SSTO, it needs to survive being shoved forward at rather more than 1g with payload attached, presumably at the end opposite the nozzle.

I suppose one could attempt a truly exotic design in which the fuel tank gets gasified, piped past the payload, and then burned, thus allowing the tank to be on top, but these seems unlikely to work very well.
Yeah looking at the photo and reading the 15k hours in design makes me a little suspicious that the designer wasn’t working very effectively.

The final design looks not better than other high doors trains in Europe. Designer should have just copied one of the existing designs and saves themselves 14999 hours.

Firebase is pretty ridiculous. It's like if Seth MacFarlane did a skit about Javascript and the cloud.

If I had to go with something like Firebase, I'd stand up a Supabase instance. At least then I'd know I had control over the backend, being based on Postgres. (Though I'd rather just code to the RDBMS directly, sticking with what's stable, not what's cool)
Right as others have mentioned, it's not $100k in savings, it's $100k total across their stuff.

But even if it was $100k savings, you can get ~5% APY at BoA high yield savings through Merrill anyways. I don't recommend that since Fidelity works better for that type of account, but you could do it.

Counter censorship via RF is dicey with something rolled out that pervasively. If you're gonna spin up meshtastic at a protest that's one thing, it'll be off everyone's radar. If you put a radio on every iPhone though, the powers that be will absolutely enact countermeasures. This leaves you two options, neither of which work:

1) make the signal hard to detect and jam/locate via modern EW techniques: spread spectrum (but not the kind lora uses) which is typically illegal already so the devices will never be certified to operate in any country

2) make detection/tracking a pain in the ass by using the existing 5G uplink band in a simplex fashion. This is a better option all round, jamming it results in killing everything and hunting down everyone with a phone is impractical. The issue is this is generally still illegal in a regulatory sense, though might be possible in at least some jurisdictions.

That's why I said "in many parts of the US". There are certainly places in the US where someone can live quite comfortably on $100K. There are other parts where it would be quite difficult and where it would be almost impossible to own a home on that income.
I pretty much share the same capacities which you’ve described. Regarding the last part, about the inner voice not defaulting to verbal projections, when I reflect about what form such pattern takes, I can only interpret it as sort of “semantic impulses”. Explaining: we know very well the feeling of hunger (impulse to eat), but we can’t emulate it at will, because it’s tied to physiological state. The scope of impulses, however, is much broader than those extreme feelings, such as sadness, happiness, etc. There’s an infinite number of feelings, and new ones are created upon experiencing novel situations, and they’re unique to you. Those finer feelings, differently from the physiologically-bounded ones, you can summon upon recalling mental imagery which are anchored with the feelings and thus able to trigger them. Most people know cringe, nostalgia, etc, which comes when recalling past events; those, again are very crude and broad impulses. If we make an analogy with colors, strong (common) feelings are like primary hues, sitting at the extremes of luminance and saturation. Finer feelings are everything else and all the possible mixtures/overlays. Thus, I can conceive my mind to be a multidimensional canvas, and as the painter I can mix and match whatever colors I have at my disposal to conjure a complex sensation which progresses over time, and that I can make use of to manifest ideas, arguments, scenes, whatever I like. In this context, there’s absolutely no active verbalization (perhaps I need to repeat some phrase mentally to invoke the color I want, but this is just for the lookup process, what I am interested in is the yield, i.e what it will trigger). Then, when I’m satisfied with the general piece, and since it’s so unstable by nature, the finishing process involves piecing together the words which will index it. If it’s something of material use in the physical reality then it becomes a note. Of course I could use any other kind of graphics as the index, it’s just that language provides all these shared, easy to remember, stereo (picture and sound), malleable, composable symbols called the alphabet. It’s the most basic yet the most powerful tool we have at our disposal. The cool thing is that all of the experience of crafting these mental pieces has also increased my repertoire/palette, beyond the final product. Sort like all products can also be ingredients, or phrased differently: ending points become starting points for new explorations.

I mean, I am a literal expert in this field <appeal to authority> what do I know. I will just state I have read the relevant laws and feel I have a good understanding of what underpins the ethics of this industry and white hat hacking after almost 2 decades immersed in it. You are mixing up morals with ethics. With ethics we have clear and unambiguous lines. Morals, that’s on you more or less.

As an iOS user and dev, I’ve been reading these comments confusedly.

Apple has exposed Siri to us as developers in several ways, one of which is called “Siri intents.”

The long and short of it is that app developers can hook into the Siri system so users can use Siri commands to control certain parts of third-party apps.

This means that users aren’t locked into using, say, Apple’s own Reminders app, and they can tell Siri to add things to third-party to-do list apps.

Users also have the option to create their own workflow via Shortcuts and give it a command phrase that Siri then responds to.

I assumed something similar was available on Android, but the responses indicate that this might not be the case.
I think Google has actually removed all third-party integrations for Assistant a while ago: https://developers.google.com/assistant/ca-sunset

In other words, they have just closed down that entire ecosystem. I don't think there's an antitrust angle here: Forcing e.g. Apple to allow third-party apps or app stores seems within reach (at least in the EU); this would be more like forcing Apple to enable apps in a world where they don't even exist (anymore).
You joke but this is unreasonably effective. We're prototyping using LLms to extract, among other things, names from arbitrary documents.

Asking the LLm to read the text and output all the names it found -> it gets the names but there's lots of false positives.

Asking the LLM to then classify the list of candidate names it found as either name / not name -> damn near perfect.

Playing around with it it seems that the more text it has to read the worse it performs at following instructions so having low accuracy pass on a lot of text followed by a high-accuracy pass on a much smaller set of data is the way to go.
I guess? I've only ever heard about the ABA problem in reference to pointers, eg in the context of lockfree queues. Maybe that's my ignorance. (Which is why I addressed shared references in my comment.)

Yes, if you don't hold a lock on a value, or exert some kind of control at the API level (eg making it monotonic so your CAS will work), you can't make assumptions about it. I think you'll find that Rust developers understand that concept about as well as any other community of concurrent developers.

But yes, granted, the semantic information about these integers isn't represented in Rust's type system, and won't be caught by it's static analysis.
Where else you go for online shopping?
Yes, but in those 60 years subsonic performance also improved by a gigantic margin. And yes, there are real physics problems that make it hard for a plane to be excellent at everything, a wing can't be optimized for everything, and neither can an engine.

And if you are using the methods used in this experimental plane. You gone have to drop out even more seats making the per seat efficiency even worse.

The Boom Supersonic plane is a new design and even their outright fantasy future projections (that are unlikely ever to be true) don't make the plain as efficient as subsonic travel.
It was only a matter of time. Good luck to them finding unscratched discs.

I think our goals are pretty similar but Triplit offers more flexible storage options (Durable Objects, IndexedDB, SQLite), deeper Typescript integration, and is probably a good deal simpler to operate--we are closer to Firebase/Firestore in that regard. ElectricSQL instead builds on the robustness of Postgres and SQLite.

> Trash sellers looking do dump volume onto Amazon are leveraging tools to generate volume.

I'm not talking about Amazon, I'm talking about X. There are many inauthentic accounts with content generated by LLMs currently on X. For example:

https://old.reddit.com/r/EnoughMuskSpam/comments/193jr8s/tha...

Most likely these fake accounts are created by firms who are selling access to mass-likes/follows. They sell the ability to get 10k fake accounts to follow your legitimate account, if you wish to boost your legitimate account, for some reason. Or, these fake accounts are created by intelligence agencies in order to run influence operations. Both of these possibilities have been reported on in the mainstream press. Maybe there's a third explanation that I haven't considered.
