Thanks! I think I now recognize this from Spivak (Calculus), where much of the teaching is literally in the exercises. You are guided along, deriving/proving many things along the way, some incidental, some cumulative. (There's also important exposition in the exercises.)

A downside is you lose the thread if you skip exercises (e.g. do alternate ones) - the exercises are an integrated whole. But it's a lot to do all of them.

I hadn't gotten the impression that these helped show why exactly the axioms were choosen - though could well be there and I just didn't see it.

As an aside, I think YouTube Music is superior to Spotify in terms of music catalog.

You get "everything on Spotify" (high quality audio) plus the YouTube videos (eg mixes that are put up) in a battery-friendy player (possibility to go audio only on these videos). Of course minimizable with YT Premium.

I believe that the discoverability algo is much better with YouTube Music as well, which is important to me...

I pay ~$15/month (in my local currency) for YouTube Premium which also gives me the ad-free experience on YouTube.
I’m the same. I haven’t bought anything from Amazon in nearly 4 years. The top spot on my “worst companies in the world” list is usually tied between Amazon, Meta and Nestle.

Macroeconomically, it probably makes precisely zero difference, but it makes me feel better to be supporting local shops.
Oh, ok. You can't.

I'm not sure you can find a citation though, it's like searching for a source that the sky is blue.

Keep in mind that digital calculations have noise too. The digitization noise behaves in a completely different way, but any single computer has a finite precision whatever the technology behind it. Infinite precision doesn't exist on the real world.
They don't break down the distribution of how many artists got paid at all, but it looks like they're probably close to the estimated 15K bands that got non-trivial payments from Spotify this year:

https://bandcamp.com/about

> In the past year alone, they’ve spent $194 million on 14.2 million digital albums, 10.4 million tracks, 1.75 million vinyl records, 800,000 CDs, 350,000 cassettes, and 50,000 t-shirts.

Note that $194M is less than 10% of Spotify's revenue.

I'd love to see a breakdown by percentile income per band, but one thing's clear: If I buy something there, then more of my money goes to the artist I'm trying to support than they get from me streaming their album.
This is the beauty of asynchronous logic: you don't need the flip flops and the clock - you need a yes-this-is-it signal propagating along the results.

I never said they're not content. I said that people making $70k in those areas might not be able to afford the same things you can, up to and including Spotify.

That's. All. I never said that that's how everyone lived, I just said that not everybody making 70k lives comfortably. That could be one person, it could be a handful.

I never blanket generalized, you did by saying everyone making $70k should live just fine. All I said was, "That's not always the case", and now you're trying to say that I think everyone living in those areas making $70k are scum.

You need to relax.
The purpose of the benchmarking was to validate the design of the cluster and to identify any issues before going into production, so it achieved exactly that objective. Without doing this work a lot of performance would have been left on the table before the cluster could even get out the door.

As per the blog, the cluster is now in a 6+2 EC configuration for production which gives ~7PiB usable. Expensive yes, but well worth it if this is the scale and performance required.
Ah, okay. When you said "schoolchildren" I interpreted that to mean that the movie was being shown in schools.

I reckon the midwit meme applies here.

Noobs think AI is amazing.

Midwits who never bothered to try to leverage it or can't evaluate it or just regurgitate what they hear think it's shit. I wager these people don't create much so they don't have a domain to really apply it, so they rely on others to report how good/bad/useful/shit it is.

Then there are creators or tinkerers who've leveraged AI to do obviously time-saving or amazing things understand its power/potential and they have the receipts.
Depends on the definition of "stealing" and whether you consider intellectual property to be private property. Private property is a social construct and it seems you've subjectively decided to exclude intellectual property from your definition of private property. That's fine but realize that this decision is a subjective one. It is no more or less absurd that I can "own" a collection of atoms as it is that I can "own" an arrangement of bits. They are both absurd notions. But we subscribe to these ideas because they are useful.
in the 20th century governments killed about a quarter billion of their subjects (see https://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/NOTE5.HTM) plus another couple hundred million foreigners (see https://www.clingendael.org/sites/default/files/pdfs/2006080...) which brings the total to about five million per year

car accidents kill less than that, though by a factor of less than four, about 1.3 million per year (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_traffic-r...)

so probably you should re-evaluate your risk assessment: even if you're only concerned with pieces of metal traversing people's bodies, rather than people being maimed, enslaved, raped, and kept in poverty, ignorance, and disease, you should weight the denial of fundamental human rights as a much larger threat than unintentional automotive injury

I'm constantly surprised at the attempts to downplay the technology. The basic tech is there, people are going to figure out control systems to constrain the outputs to given problems, and ways of doing LoRAs and fine tuning to make models that sound the way you want. I've seen a lot of people ask Chat-GPT questions then make the judgement that it's too wooden or uncreative to write scripts or play characters or whatever use case they want to write off. That's just because Chat-GPT is trained to be that way. I've seen enough of the community efforts with Open source models to know you'll be able to make systems that sound and do whatever you want in any style, with any cadence or tone. It's literally just a matter of making them a little faster and less resource intensive, and experimenting a lot, and that is happening rapidly. And it's just going to take a few more breakthroughs with logic systems, or ways of extending memory to really jump far ahead again.

It does a bit though, restriction and auditing to production data, and preventing exfiltration are hard, imperfect, but still quite standard for large companies like Tesla.

And for every study that shows that there's another on the other side. Homeschool outcomes are incredibly diverse by nature and the numbers involved are so small that it's hard to have a study with any reasonable amount of power.
The latest Tesla heat pumps can extract heat from the air to heat the battery and cabin down to -10C. Past that, they have to use resistive heating which is much less efficient. I would say that’s where the “cold” line begins, and of course the colder it is the more battery you have to waste. Last weekend I took a 3 hour round trip (starting with 90% charge) in -30C and had to charge only for 5 minutes to complete the trip.
LLM output reminds me of the essays I had to write in college. They tick all the boxes in a curriculum and demonstrate a basic grasp on syntax, but they're hot garbage. Your first encounter with an editor as a professional or advanced hobbyist burns that away and reveals the foundation of your true form as a writer.

LLMs are in desperate need of something that bridges that gap if they're to do anything more than help people cheat in college and annoy editors. At least for the purpose of producing writing for use. They're great when I want to scrape a web page and its links for archiving and need a quick wget command line.

No, she's not banned from getting benefits. The OIG statement clarifies that "An exclusion is an administrative sanction ... prohibiting payment for any health care item or service furnished, ordered, or prescribed by an excluded person." So this is about a 90 year ban on WORKING in a business that bills the government.
And there's been an actual epidemic of people's ICE vehicles just plain not starting when it was -30C for a few days in a row.

EV's just started, because they don't need to "start". There needs to be enough juice in the 12V battery to engage the main battery relay and then it's done. Mine sat outside for almost a week when it was -25 to -32, then I had to go get some groceries and it just went.

Ironically plug-in hybrids were the worst off. Many brands completely refuse to start if the battery is too cold, because they use the EV drivetrain as a starter for the ICE bit. Cold battery -> no go. Worst of both worlds pretty much.

I think that is in parts because a few seconds of video material does not really give you a good idea about game play. Even within the 80s, there's a tremendous difference between early games and ones from the end of the decade. It's hard to see but very easy to notice when you actually play the games.

Also, the graphics and sound evolved greatly from very simplistic to sophisticated. A lot of programmings tricks have been discovered over the years for the C64 that allowed to push the boundaries of what is possible on the machine.
Steam always treated games as collection items. They understood that gamers wanted to collect games and today most games bought are not even played, they are sold to be collected.

> Is the trend of non-ownership a good thing?

I would argue, on average, it actually is. Because it's not that we are getting nothing in return: We are getting stewardship.

Let us at least acknowledge this part of the equation: Hosting things securely and reliably is only naively easy and cheap, and on top only like drawing a picture is easy, if you are Picasso. Sure, you can put those years of professional devops experience to use to maintain a private data haven – but that's not something that will work for most people and it is fairly obvious that, on average, our collective data would be a lot less safe if rolling hosting became everyones favorite passion project.

I blame font sizes.

I think everyone but me is wrong and that my phone in portrait mode should be able to show at least 100 characters. The comment im replying takes up about an inch of vertical space, and is spread over six lines, one of which is blank and one is a single word.

This is larger than I find ideal but about the same as an average paperback novel. That said I need to twiddle a setting in Android developer options to get even this small. Maybe people want to loom at their phone without their glasses on? maybe less text seems "cleaner"?

Ex-Google Officer Speaks Out on the Dangers of AI [video]
The school district I went to had a policy that the teachers are required to have a related masters degree in the subject they’re teaching. It was a great school district since the teachers were all formerly non teachers at one point. My social studies teacher was a lawyer before, physics teacher actually published some papers as a physicists. The downside is the property tax ballooned out of control but I got a great education.
Google played both sides and lost. They took a cut of all the SEO trash display ads, and all revenue from the search ads.

It seemed like a great way to make endless cash, but they double dipped and ended up breaking the web by hyper incentivizing trash content.

As predicted by many, DoubleClick killed Google. It took longer than people predicted, but you can’t play both sides forever.

Now what?

Piracy is a clear and self-evident moral good irrespective of how close or not it is to stealing. Justifying piracy based on wordplay opens you up to attack by people and organizations that like to destroy what is good through manipulative wordplay.

Just modify the authentication code in https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot-golang/blob/maste... to look something like this:

OsVersion: proto.Uint32(0),
OsExt: proto.Uint32(0),
SystemInformationString: proto.String("Linux [x86-64 0]"),

ClientInfo: &Spotify.ClientInfo{

In the go version of the library they set some boolean in the request that makes it not work with free accounts but if you change it to this it will work. You can also use this Wireshark dissector to read Spotify protobuf messages directly: https://github.com/plietar/spotify-analyze/blob/master/disse...

Then you can make the authentication packet look exactly like the desktop client (though this is not required because Spotify has lax validation).

Looks like a permanent rentier gig these days - how many teachers are earning enough money to buy their own home in the community in which they are teaching? If that's not a plausible outcome, if living in a rental unit your whole life is part of the job description, then it's not an attractive deal.

I've had good luck with Lulu. My experience was short-runs. I sometimes like to make custom notebooks for myself and friends. But the quality was good. Lulu will print spiral fold flat editions. Might come in handy for a cookbook.

I've also had good luck with Blurb. They do high quality photobooks. Which isn't what you're selling, but I'm mentioning them because they will offer your book for sale, print-on-demand, via their site. And wouldn't be surprised if they have a way of selling via Amazon. They wouldn't be a bad choice if you wanted to sell a $50+ coffee table edition of your cookbook. Or a bit lower for a paperback edition.

I am quite sure I do not have the ethical card in any of these discussions. I also pay way less than the combined sum of the value I receive from the internet.

But there is a marketplace. And the content of YouTube is not worth the price of YouTubes premium offerings because they embed ads. Ie. I pay to remove YouTube's ads, but not video sponsorships.

That would be like paying for Kagi and still only be presented SEO-optimized worthless content – I pay for Kagi because I feel like they can filter away that content much better than Google.

I am saying that a product you pay for is not the same as an ad-supported product. It is not just about stripping the product of ads after the user has paid.

So everybody not willing to pay for a Gmail offering without ads, I completely understand them.

work less? in my state they are contractually obligated to work just over 900 hours a year - a typical FT employee is expected to work more than twice that (1920 - 2000 hours) depending on vacation benefit.

I don't think teachers pay is all that low (at least in my state), when you factor in they only work 50% as many hours - on an hourly basis, teachers (except perhaps the brand new ones) make pretty good hourly rate, full benefits, and are usually able to retire a lot earlier than regular folks, and with a defined-benefit pension and full healthcare.

Make them work even less? No thanks.
You caught only those who are just bad at lying.
Or you know. Invest your money smartly, don't actually mothball nuclear, simply build more. And then you save a huge amount of money and you have reliable energy. Crazy how that would work.

Simply take the price of a typical modern 1.5GW electric reactor from somebody like South Korea. Calculate how many you need in Germany, add up the cost. And that's not even taking into account the cost savings you could get from building a large number of the same plants.

You end up with a number significantly less then what Germany has spend over the last 25 years, will spend the next 20 and has spent on energy subsidies because of their high electricity prices.
