Yes, exactly my point. I grew up on the Norwegian coast. Consequently, wind doesn't bother me very much. I'll even go outside in violent storm conditions without being too worried about it

After moving to the Oslo region, which has much less wind, I actually miss the wind. But there are other issues around here, like floods, getting snowed in, sub -20 temps etc. These are quite new to me and the last 2 weeks I've been quietly freaking out waiting for my pipes to explode. Seems like I've been lucky though.
> Thank you for dinner” felt to me as an act of distancing

True story. One of the major times I almost broke up (before we got married) with my wife, who grew up in Fujian China, is the first time I told her, "I love you," and she replied, "Thank you." (Now, on our anniversary, I might get her a bouquet with a note saying, "You're welcome.")

First time I almost broke up with her before we married was our very first date, when she was 45 minutes late. She finally called me, telling me that the CEO came in at the last moment with a new idea, and that she would be there as soon as she could. Afterwards, she was an additional 45 minutes late, because just after she got off the phone, the CEO came in with another idea. Where she's from, where she grew up, this kind of thing is just unfortunate but, "understandable."
> 4. US English really needs to re-acquaint (no pun intend) itself with the word "acquaintance" as an alternative to "friend". The almost universal use of "friend" to describe anyone you know (even from the most singular and minor of interactions) really robs verbal behavior about the social environment here of so much subtlety

Well, we just call them brothers or sisters if they are that close. Actually…
I agree AI performance quality is measurably worse than real actors, but that isn't why people are upset.
Thanks!

Mods, can we change the URL to this?
Nice to meet you. We need to make an AI agent that gets us all the work. I’ll send you a message.
If software engineering whiteboard interviews are anything to go by, strictly hash tables. Hash tables are the only thing that matter, unless of course the interview process is broken...
The interactions I had--some of them, I should add--in Greece were combative from an American perspective and not a Russian one. If the scenes described in the link are typical of Russian life, then the Greeks I encountered indeed probably would not strike a Russian as rude.
So much to write about techspypro @gmail com which if I start I will cover the whole internet with the good jobs this hacker has done for me so far but right now all I can say to wisetechacker is, I will forever be grateful to you, you really saved me from sudden heart break from my spouse with your hacking services I found out right on time before my spouse could execute his plan with his side chick
Like model cars, model airplanes, and model trains, mathematical models aren’t the real thing—they’re simplified representations that get the salient parts right.

Once a year the New Yorker rings up Dan Rockmore and asks him to try and explain something to do with mathematics to people who have tweed mousepads and a Haruki Murakami screensaver.
MMS were not encrypted and stories have been the most requested feature.

It made totally sense to go this way.
I ran a sample through my Apple Newton Messagepad: Iss Martha auf.
Everyone thinks it’s personal when anti-abuse automation detects token reuse and blocks the hardware ID that issued it. It’s not. It’s just an HSM-secured communications network, same as Xbox consoles use for their player messaging network, complete with the anti-abuse automation that can lead to hardware bans.

It’ll be interesting to see how hard Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony fight against any attempt to open up iMessage. They each depend critically on the right to block devices by device identifier using automation, and if a ruling is found against Apple in this matter, all hardware identifier enforcement is now voidable, which will destroy some of the value of their paid subscription services and worsen the safety of those services.
I still love going to the bookshop and looking at the programming books! (I'm in my 40s)
But why stored in a secret pocket?
I wonder who's going to write the "Teach yourself Rust from scratch in 21 days" book. If C and even C++ can be learnt effectively as a first programming language, there's little reason why Rust couldn't be. And if not Rust, maybe Golang could play that role.
While our current offerings might seem basic to some, they are part of a larger, evolving strategy aimed at integrating AI into education responsibly and effectively.

We're not claiming to have all the answers right now, but we're actively working towards finding them. Dismissing our efforts as mere "outsourcing to ChatGPT" overlooks the broader objective of our work. We're striving to tackle real-world educational challenges, and that includes starting with tools that might seem simple at first glance.

Feedback is crucial, and yours has been noted. But let's not mistake the starting line for the finish.
Even now an ancient FW400 HDD enclosure of mine is less flaky than a lot of USB storage I’ve used.
A fumbling user clicks a submit button twice and it unleashes chaos in the web engine.
Well done. What are your thoughts on a tool for generalizing the idea of linking a multiplicity of models? In this case, you linked: GPT-4 -> Midjourney. A generalized example would be: Model-A -> Model-B -> Model-C etc.
If you're spending less than 100,000, you almost certainly aren't spending enough to pay salary + benefits for a sysadmin.
A loving home isn't a good analogy to a sad badly-managed assisted living facility for a cat. If you play with your cat, provide self-play toys and areas to climb and scratch, feed your cat good quality food, and give them cozy places to enjoy in your home they're visibly happy and content.
> It works with SMS as well, and I just don't have to think about it.

I have a mac laptop and an android phone. My son has an iphone. Half of his responses to my text messages go to my phone, the other half go to my laptop and I miss them. This is a major problem, imessage shouldn't be greedy about grabbing messages, especially when replying to an SMS. I've missed picking him up from places because I didn't get the reply.
If you want evidence of the success of liars in America, just look at Trump.
Hill? In Amsterdam? Suspicious detail!
I highly doubt they're "punishing" customers or even "retaliating" like the article says.

They've always banned iMessage access that they determined to be compromised. It's part of security and preventing abuse.

It just probably took a couple weeks for their automated system to detect.

Hopefully affected users can get it working again on their Macs via customer service, if they even care.
It's a story about carefully examining the differences when changing technologies and avoiding imprecise or dual use terms like "waste." This is something that should come naturally to a hackers forum, but a bit of marketing does get mixed in here from time to time, and people can't seem to help themselves from embellishing interesting new technologies into universally improved solutions.

So.. you get this back and forth between the two camps as they rush to take victory laps around each other.
Or almost. They're both euphemistic really - confined to bed; soon to labour.
Overtime is more expensive. Shift differentials (paying more for 2nd and 3rd shifts) makes those shifts more expensive. There are more workers willing to work in the 7A-4P window than in the 9P-5A window.
Main Character Syndrome in full effect lol
To be fair, most probably don't actually bother with the original solute, and instead sell straight-up distilled water. Or just tap water.
There's nothing to clog up. The drain is a normal drain; the innovation is that the cold water source pipe winds around the drain, transferring some of the heat from the outgoing water to the incoming.
> You may not use Amazon Lightsail in a manner intended to avoid incurring data fees from other Services

This requires proving the users intent, which is not obvious except in the most blatant of cases (i.e. using Lightsail as a bent-pipe by writing the exact bytes you're reading). If it is a "CSV to Parquet translation layer", how would AWS possibly prove it's anything other than what it claims to be? You'd be paying a few more cents for compute, but that's the price of plausible deniability
Added humidity is definitely a concern. Perhaps we could fix that by covering the water with plastic to prevent evaporation, but I never look into it.
It’s encoded words for weather forecast.

Save you a click.
Much appreciated. Sounds as if you're way out of spec. Still; should be interesting to go through your methods.
Maybe, or maybe I became used to and ossified in bad strategies. I hope not, but I think I have learned that learning has to be intentional. Meaning for me, writing stuff down, trying to find out other solutions to the same problem rather than just going with whatever my first idea is, etc.
What would be bad about that? His Connections documentary was great. And apparently rebooted last year: https://curiositystream.com/video/6468
I believe Amazon classifies all costs of software engineering under R&D.

Even after factoring those risks in, cyclists on average live longer than non-cyclists.
I was sad to see this as a long-time used of SMT. Kudos to Naveen for taking the initiative in forking. I hope it doesn't turn out to be too much work for him (+ other contributors who help out). I imagine it's a big endeavour trying to fork all of the apps.
Over the past 6 years married to a woman who grew up in China, I've become more aware of how often we Americans say the exact opposite of what they mean, but instead convey their actual meaning through context, tone of voice, or whatever.

It took us about 2 years to really learn how to talk to each other.
Big fail if you consider the energy it takes to build a car. All the wasted energy to prematurely destroy those cars that still had years of use in them is mind boggling.
The design of an amplifier stage often looks like this:

https://toshiba.semicon-storage.com/us/semiconductor/knowled...

Where the triangle isn't perfectly linear. If any RF gets into the output, it can be converted to audio frequencies by the nonlinearity and amplified. The open loop gain of the amplifier component can increase the magnitude of signals like this by tens of decibels.
Really? It hasn't killed Costco yet.
In the US, generally no.
I expected something like:

Nor is a continuously expanding human population.

Nonetheless, large families throughout time and space have somehow managed to survive without a yank tank, this suggests that while they may be desirable they are hardly neccessary.
I'll be giving this a go with one of my side projects which has several tables with data that isn't super normalised, as it'd be interesting to see if it can cope with it
Messaged you on IG!
The DoE quoted a figure of 30% savings on showers, which is pretty impressive. All houses should be built so this is standard. It's so much more expensive to retrofit it later especially if the layout doesn't have the shower over the water heater.
No I'd say we have a moral imperative to auction off the roads for privatization to let market force us to efficient transport options and more accurately capture their costs. I believe this will also reduce pedestrian and bike fatalities by pushing people to smaller vehicles and stuff like commuter rail.
Similarly, I know Harvard and MIT, and also parts of Boston have centralized steam heat systems. Harvard uses theirs extensively still, at least in the old buildings, but I'm not sure about MIT. Boston's is fed by an old commercial steam plant on the outskirts of Chinatown. I think it covers a pretty limited area though. I never lived anywhere with it.
Good point to link to what3words.

> your fate

Up to and including the collapse of your business and/or a successful VC unicorn exit, yes!
Is there a place where to see the code you’re trying to test? My primary use of unit tests is to understand if its clean and maintainable code, so im likely your last user case, but wanted to see what kind of code took hours to test
It certainly feels a bit ponzi-ish to me. Historically it feels like you raised funds by IPO-ing immediately and going from there. With VC, it seems like the plan is "waste VC money until we IPO, and then it the public's problem, not ours", and everyone who can realistically make money exits.

I suspect a place to start investigating would be to try and find the number of dollars being spent by the VC firms in relation to how many startups go belly-up. It certainly feels like startups are more volatile than ever but I don't have any data proving that.
Felt the same in Ohio. I'm polish.

Spent 6 months at Ohio State as exchange student and I loved it and hated it.

I remember once being asked how was I and me answering honestly, just for an american friend to reprimend me on actually answering.

I was like, "why the hell you asking how am I if you don't care?".

Got to admit though no place is easier to make friends than US. This excess talking can often lay fertile ground to deeper connection that is harder to find elsewhere.
I could not disagree more about Windows 95 looking "dated". It's one the clearest, simplest, and easiest to parse UIs I've ever seen.

Buttons look like buttons. Scroll bars are thick and clear. Draggable objects are obvious.

It's a huge shame that we've gone only backwards since then, IMHO.
I think the ellipses have that connotation in a lot of places and kind of like with all-caps and exclamation marks, it doesn't seem as strongly connected to culture.

Some of my Indian friends use it the same way as you do, which often throws off some of my American friends, who interpret it as impatience, and vice versa.
Oops. Yep, thanks!
> This app came from a third party, it can download all your private information and has not been reviewed by Apple

Why would you consider it "anticompetitive"? I think Apple has a good claim that this is a factual statement that is used as a security warning as a core OS feature.

Google have something like this when you sideload (or allow sideloading option, don't remember exactly when you get these warnings) and EU did not consider it "anti-competitive" (at least yet).
It’s all about brands and recognisability
I think you have a valid point, but the risk of this feels exaggerated.

I already had a few entities I didn't really need it using (not for security reasons, but to shorten the system prompt). I simply excluded them within the Jinja template itself. I can see this being a problem with people who have their ovens or thermostats on HA, but I don't necessarily think it's an unsolvable issue if we implement sensible sanity checks on the output.

hilariously, the model I'm using doesn't even have any RLHF. but I am also not very concerned if GlaDOS decides to turn on the coffee machine. maybe I would be slightly more concerned if I had a smart lock, but I think primitive methods such as "throw big rock at window" would be far easier for a bad person.

when it comes to jailbreak prompts, you need to be able to call the assistant in the first place. if you are authorized to call the HomeAssistant API, why would you bother with the LLM? just call the respective API directly and do whatever evil thing you had in mind. I took an unreasonable number of measures to try to stop this from happening, but I admit that's a risk. however, I don't think that's a risk caused by the LLM, but rather the existence of IoT devices.
Second and third shifts are more costly, yes. Many fewer people want to work them, so supply is much lower, so prices are higher.

Also in evenings, road crews have extra safety precautions (there’s a higher chance of running one over in the dark) and that’s labor too.
Isn't it just N^2?
I've suspected Postel's law applies to human communication also, mutatis mutandis.
I don't think you know rudeness until you've had to deal with Portuguese bureaucracy.

> One solution is that the first hop in the chain has to match the domain of the display URL

Does anyone know why this isn't the default? I can't think of any legitimate reason why a brand wouldn't want to have their true domain displayed?

If they want to redirect to a third-party they can implement it on their own website.
The whole point is is that it’s not fake, it feels fake to us, and we (I’m Dutch) are not rude, it feels rude to Americans. We value different things. They are trying to be nice by making compliments, we try to connect by being brutally honest (orthogonal but both positive?). I can tell you our Dutch waiters can learn a thing or two from their US counterparts about service (well maybe it’s also because we hardly tip, but still).

Germans are already different by the way, my German colleague was a bit shocked when he had a hair cut and one colleague walked in asking if he tried to do it himself followed by another asking if he fell down the stairs. It’s camaraderie, I guess mostly in younger people. Honestly his hair wasn’t bad at all.

You can see the same thing with "neighbor". In the UK that refers to someone who lives in one of the houses adjacent to yours. In the USA it can refer to anyone who lives anywhere in some loosely-defined neighborhood. "My neighbor" can be someone who lives a mile or two away, which by UK standards is absurd.
Yeah, it's nice feeling like I have a foundation in enough topics that I actually feel like I would know vaguely where to start looking to solve most problems. Definitely not an expert though.
In terms of foundations and principles Haiku OS is more of a coherent platform that anything on the Linux desktop attests to be at the moment. In terms practicality, hardware support and a size of software ecosystem it is still very minor compared to Linux, which I find unfortunate.
Do not delude yourself - IBM is surviving off of grifting big legacy IBM Technology and public sector contracts through their Consulting arm (...which they also bought, off of PwC) and near-/off-shoring.

Most "Quantum Ambassadors" and similar are funded thanks to benevolence/nepotism of local management since they do not create billable hours or maintenance contracts. Adding to that, IBM's rolling out suffocating utilization targets for their employees in more and more countries which will take care of that as well.

It's a dying company.

Reading too much slows down scrolling and ad views, you must keep scrolling. Also, trying to have meaningful conversations with others might lead to independent ideas or actions that are out of the control of the platform, all ideas or actions must benefit only the platform and its adverisers.
That is considered rude in the Netherlands as well. But yes, many people do it. And you know that if you are out of sight, they will talk that way about you. It's a certain way of lashing out or letting go in an emotional way, some way to survive the complexity of life. It is correct to call it ugly. It can even be correct to talk to people about what they are doing. Ofcourse, if people are old and set in their ways, there is no helping. But young people can still be educated.

There is some idea that you need to be "strong" (whatever that is) or "fit in", which is just wrong to me. If you don't, people judge you and talk bad about you. I know lots of people who do it about many people, even their closest friends.
It kinda depends on the candidate. Someone who already has experience may not stick around long because they aren't learning new skills, where as someone who isn't familiar with a particular technology will have added satisfaction and reason to stay from developing mastery of a new tech
I'm not sure what it means about me that I can't tell if you're joking or not.

As a Brit I have one friend I've known since childhood I'd call "brother" unironically. Even then I'd probably have to have been drinking.

Too many people would complain if they just turned it on, watch the trackers fly by.

Since their customers are the people running the trackers and giving them money, they listen to the advertisers and not the cattle who are clicking on ads.

> Scrum usually comes with a bunch of people who think Scrum principles come from some holy book and act accordingly.

well, there is the 'scrum guide' so its not surprise imo [0]

> You can't estimate how long your tasks will take because you are flooded by interrupts (coming from outside the Agile team or even from within)? Well, shame on you.

i think the fundamental issue of scrum/agile is thinking one can estimate accurately in the small/short-term and do it continuously. if you have deliverables every quarter for example, as long as they are delivered isnt everything else just superfluous?

Slightly tangential, but does anyone have a non-standard, 2023-24 relevant advice for novel queries?
In all honesty, this kind of discourse is insulting to the target audience, and not going to win over anyone to your cause.

If you call the people you are trying to convince "idiots, rubes, and otherwise "consumer"-personality types" then they stop listening after that point. Which is probably fortunate since you called for a "digital 9/11". Call me crazy, but I don't want a repeat of an event where thousands of people died, leading to two wars where hundreds of thousands or millions died just so I can get more open computing.

You know who hasn't called me an idiot or a rube? The makers of iMessage. In fact, they offer free lessons on how their products can be used to make my life better. I can buy grandma an iPad, and for no extra charge, they will spend hours with her to get her set up and seamlessly sending me messages. They won't talk down to her, they won't lecture her in internet slang, they won't compare her to moths drawn to a bug zapper for using an alternative. I-devices are expensive, sure, and there is a mild lock-in effect with iMessage/cloud, but most people are pretty happy to be locked in. If iMessage goes away, I still buy an iPhone and use a Mac, because the hardware works for me.

Truth be told you aren't using mimetic warfare to plant ideas (or at least not the ideas you think you are planting). You are associating your cause with superior attitudes, insults, and unfriendliness.
