I think you missed my point. "Caching" output by training a more efficient / cheaper model with that output is in fact against their ToS. In my simple brain that is a form of caching, and I stand by my original post.

I've not made anything up. Your claim that I have is nonsense.

OpenAI changing their ToS for the military on a whim: https://archive.is/GILKl - for your enjoyment.

"What You Cannot Do. You may not use our Services for any illegal, harmful, or abusive activity. For example, you may not:

* Use Output to develop models that compete with OpenAI."
I was moreso thinking of review comments like "this is the worst code I've ever seen", "give up now", "ignoring the hundreds of errors, this looks fine", Dreamworks villain laughter, etc.
I wonder how the reactions to this headset will play out. It's obviously going to be relatively clunky compared to expectations given that it's the first version. The marketing material doesn't really show the hassle of using a cable / separate battery. The battery only lasts 2 hours. There will not be many apps or they will be low quality. It'll probably be a bit front-heavy from all that glass.

Anyway, I got one for myself because I'm really excited about developing for it, and also seeing how productive one can be working with the headset on (I was already pretty impressed with using virtual screens for my MacBook with keyboard passthrough in the Quest).
The last time Apple introduced a new general purpose computing device was the iPad, 14 years ago.

This one just doesn’t feel as big. When the iPad was introduced, everyone was shocked by the very low price and the sleek form factor compared to previous Windows tablet devices.

Those are exactly the weak points of the Vision Pro: it’s very expensive and very heavy, according to reports.

The hands-on sessions that Apple gave to journalists earlier this week seemed a bit underwhelming. The reporter for the Verge wrote that it feels like the Quest, but with higher resolution.

That’s a worrying sign! Imagine if the first hands-on of the iPhone had been “it’s like a BlackBerry but with better DPI screen.”

Of course Apple is usually very good at consistently evolving their platforms. Maybe the non-Pro model will be something else.
"It’s obvious the game has changed" - it's obvious you haven't been in tech all that long. ;) that was a joke answer - no offence intended :) But seriously, I've heard "the game has changed" many, many, many times over the last few decades. Its true. The game is constantly changing. :)
"what you all are focusing on to stay employed in tech". - Same answer as its always been. Be reliable, show up, get stories in the Done column. Be friendly, nice, help others when they're stuck, ask for help when you're stuck, do a mixture of work, some with new tech you wanna learn, some on old legacy stuff or things other people don't like so they're grateful you did so they didn't have to and want to hang onto you 'cos you know the codebase. Look after your boss :) People forget to do this. (not being a sycophant, just genuinely making their life easier and trying to be not too much of a PITA to manage). If a job ends up being stressful / non-fun, or you're locked into all old tech with no future, then ask for a change to the role, or move jobs internally or externally.
The trouble with OAuth is to get a production client ID you must pass a third party security audit.. this is in excess of $20k and AIUI must be repeated periodically. Using a developer client ID is already heavily limited, and I have no doubt now that this ladder has been pulled up, developer IDs will see further restrictions in future.

IMAP/POP passwords have long defaulted to disabled in Gmail, Gmail survived 20 years without need for these new restrictions, I can't imagine attack techniques have improved and Google's internal technical staff have regressed so substantially that they are now essential. This change seems more motivated by creating frictions for escaping the Google vortex than anything to do with security.
Are there enough people like this who want to deal with the unpleasantness of being managers? The only enticement we have is money.
Agree with some of the other commentors that I don't associate "loader" with progress indicators / spinners. The preferred term for these in my book is "loading indicator"

A lot of these terms are overloaded already. Android made it esp. bad by using "spinner" for a dropdown box, and then they used progress indicator for things that normally you'd use "spinner" for.

Ultimately a "spinner" isn't really a good term since not all loading indicators spin.

I might remember seeing the term "loader" in the jQuery days, but I haven't seen it used that way for a while.
You think, you can reach people that speak of "cultural marxism" with wikipedia?

I dont and i dont know an alternative since cognitive biases slowly take away the ability to freely reason about contradicting statements; their ability to reason in general.

The context was perhaps lost in the thread. Yes, I was talking about having to go up or down a staircase in general. As you say, one or two doesn't really matter.
Newton's statement of the case in dispute between Leibniz and himself
No, they won't, for the reasons mentioned in the article.
that is a little bit of hyperbole. No school in 5th or 6th grade is giving formal definitions of relations and functions. There is a reason nearly all undergrad math books in analysis, topology, algebra, all devote an entire first chapter to it.
Facts:

#1 Linux support for old hardware in general is incredibly good, better then any other modern OS AFAIK.

#2 Running a 15 year old Laptop makes zero sense, you can not be that poor. I use gaming rigs as my PCs for everything and I one of mine was 8 years old at some point and I still sold it for 250€ and bought a new one. There are budget laptops that run faster, eat less power bill that any 15 year old device. Of the specifics of your device do not play will with distros its just another good reason on the top of the list why an upgrade is past time.

Demanding devs to maintain stuff for 15 year old hardware makes no sense, if something is there and still works and can be "maintained" with little effort while keeping it in place its another story.

But again generally speaking I think Linux, the kernel has incredibly good support for an insane amount of obscure and ancient hardware out there.
I’m curious how well this could work for using it as a portable multi-monitor setup.
If that works well in combination with my MacBook, I’ll buy it in a heartbeat.
Imagine just sitting anywhere, but immediately having 3 large vertical screens with code and documentation.
Apparently they sold out the Vision Pro in the first 15 minutes
> The only enticement we have is money.

Again, it may be more simple than we imagine :)
A lot of larger orgs (Universities etc) use Palo Alto Networks Global Protect VPN as their VPN for accessing the orgs intranets.

Maybe related somehow to that?

Lol, my first thought was "has it been 10 minutes? I bet its 8:08", and it's 8:35. Good morning everyone!
We probably think fluently of these mathematical structures in tangible, real world terms. Still it requires some practice translating to the mathematical abstractions, and still further practice thinking in terms of the abstractions altogether. I don’t know how relevant it is that the textbook content can be covered in a single semester.
I’m not into this, but the soft-goods team did a nice job on that solo-knit band.

In the DOM (not the HTML returned by the initial request) of the page, I see

<yt-smartimation class="smartimation smartimation--enable-masking">

It does seem odd to me to be searching the class names of DOM elements. I'm not sure if that's intended or a bug, or a red herring and the page is found for some other reason.

Testing more, searching for 'wevideo "smartimation"', 'wevideo "enable-masking"', 'wevideo "enable masking"', 'wevideo "enable-masking"', 'wevideo "enablemasking"', all return no results. That seems to indicate Google isn't searching class names. However, it's possible it is searching them but due to some algorithm decided to index on "masking" but not index on the other parts.

Maybe another possibility is during crawling there was a recommended video in the sidebar with "masking" in the title. I don't really know how the crawler and indexer works though, if it pays attention to those.

Maybe another possibility is I'm wrong, and for video results Google does ignore quotes.
Travel case for $200 is funny.
> I suppose it's more appealing to our TikTok-conditioned minds.

Tik Tok directly influences the charts as well as video views are counted as streams. As a result, songs that are fun or funny to dance to for 20 seconds can quickly end up in the Top 10. Tik Tok also has had a significant indirect influence recently with songs and artists that go viral there finding mainstream success afterward, e.g. Lil Nas X, Doja Cat, and Dreams by Fleetwood Mac.
THC and opiates in poppies basically are animal neurotransmitters, so I disagree. Their original function was probably to discourage animals from eating the plant. Animals seems to have a reflex by which any drastic changes to brain function induce vomiting of and aversion to any food the animal just ate.
It's kind of crap that Alexa is asking for money for functionality it should have provided from day one (being able to interpret requests with >90% accuracy)
I use the Quest 3 for this and it works really well (I have a m1 mbp).

I use the Immersed app and I'm able to code for 3-4 hours a day with the headset.
I've worked in codebases where this bubbling is trivial, and ones where its impossible. The key is abstractions.
>As for what will take them down - all large institutions are failing right now. The public education system. The health care system. The government. The mass media. The immigration system, and general idea of national borders. The zoning / building code / housing system. Childcare. Wouldn't surprise me if we see the financial system, currency, and military go down next. The trigger is part climate change, part demographics, part COVID, and part the loss of trust triggered by the Internet and Big Tech.

Falling? When was the last time in a developed country when an educational system/heathcare failed as a system? Or the government (other than in Argentina), or Military? As for the concept of borders? No, that is not failing either, it's just people in some countries today became convinced it is not worth to use deadly force to defend borders. See for example Sweden, or France for where this path leads to. It is not a pretty picture, but it is very far from "systems failing". As for reasons, why these systems are under pressure I can definitely agree on demographics, but climate change affecting our education/healthcare systems? No way.

Periods of boom and bust are a feature of our financial system, I'm not seeing anything unusual. Currencies fail too due to mismanagement. But extrapolating this into some sort of overall systemic failure of everything caused by climate change no less is not rational.

On the global scale the biggest challenge in today's world is the growing power of authoritarian nations hell bent on global domination and continued enfeeblement(deindustrialisation, increased corruption, disregard for the rule of law) of the free world. Then demographics, then very far in the distance climate change.
Have many people here used the quest as a virtual multi monitor setup, any advice/recommendations?
It really depends on the text, it doesn't have to be just a list of theorems and definitions.

Some intuition can be conveyed through text, or geometry and visualization. A good explanation can make things click.

I think you may be right about your own experience, that you get most of your intuition from exercises, but I'm confident this varies. Some people get much more than zilch from a good text, in addition to doing exercises.

The real world is harder than a classroom, but we don't have to make classroom learning as hard as research. It's okay to start with help and increase the difficulty gradually. You don't have to do everything on your own!
Having pushed a git commit says nothing about whether the person pushing it has enjoyed doing so intrinsically or as a means to an end.

Conversely, I’ve worked with very passionate technical people that seemingly couldn’t care less about their share value or even core business metrics (which is ok as long as there’s somebody around that can reel them in if they go off on a tangent and they let them), but just don’t like writing code.

I don’t think there’s a simple, non-gameable heuristic for determining whether somebody is intrinsically or extrinsically interested in the tech part of a tech company, or even the company’s core product.
So, you are claiming they are "taking defense" not "taking offence"?

Is this a terrible dad joke?
Money is the energy for a business. With it you employ people to build, market and sell the product, rent real estate etc.

Most startups die out of either running out of money or running out of will to continue (due to founder fallout).

Money may be made up numbers, but what you can exchange it for is very real.

People buy things they value.

So if Ello dies, did they build something valuable? Valuable enough that it could sustain itself long term.
Lol when the iPhone came out, literally everyone was criticizing it for how expensive it was.

Also, looking at the functionality it had when it first came out, it wouldn't have really been very useful for me (no app store, basically just an iPod + shitty browser + phone).

Anyway, does anyone actually think that VR isn't going to revolutionize computing over the next 10 years?
I think people imply too much evil-intent with funding rather than understanding the mechanics of it. If you take money from an investor you have an obligation to them to make a return on that money in a finite time frame. The VC has LPs who want their money back in a finite window, so paying tiny dividends over 10 years to see a return on capital and some profit just doesn't work. Building a low-margin, profitable business does not return that investment.

So if you understand the mechanics behind it and have a reasonable path to return, say at least 5x the capital in 5 years (they want more obviously) then VC may not get in the way of your mission. But you have to ask yourself the hard question and be honest in answering it: "Can I return this investment five fold in five years without harming my customers/users/business/etc.?"..

Ethical obligations go in multiple directions.

[edit to add] Obviously there is also a fair amount of dihonesty and ill-intentioned greed out there as well, but that isn't the driver.
No pub is based on HTML and is viewable on different devices which must look different. So will not meet that requirement.

I think annotations also are not part of ePub they need to be part of a specification that build on epub. epub is the original.

Long term preservation is there as long as you don't try to do complex formatting in CSS.
This is precisely the use case I’m interested in. I work with a single monitor using a tiling window manager and multiple workspaces. I usually have one workspace with email, iMessage, another with code+docs+terminal, another with some desktop app, etc. if this device can make that more efficient and allow me to separate contexts better I’m going to go for it. If I can have that AND be on the go it’s absolutely worth the money.

I’m a bit loathe to go in on a $3500 device without trying it out though, so I’m waiting do a few weeks at least for some more reviews to trickle in and whatever hype to die down before checking it out. I am particularly interested in how heavy it is after wearing the thing for 4+ hours, which is not something you can really get a vibe about at the Apple Store
Remember when The Face Book was for college kids only and GMail was invite-only? That's how to start.
Must admit, as this got closer I contemplated getting it more and more. Especially as I find myself using my laptop a lot on the couch and bed.

Just the ability to have a larger screen without worrying about my physical Mac screen is a fairly large selling point, plus any other features. I assume there has not been anything about the ability to have multiple virtual Mac screens has there? That would likely make this an instant purchase for me.
I don't think you understand how book reviews work.

Musk does not qualify as a "space pioneer," and you would find out why if you read the whole review. Repeatedly promising colonies on Mars, reusable Starships, point-to-point rocket trips, and all of the other stuff he has promised doesn't count as pioneering -- anyone can make empty promises. He did learn how to grift for tax money, but Boeing, Lockheed, et al got their a long time ago.
It's not even an edge case. An "old school" absentee working dad is a parent, but not a child-raiser. The OP even touches upon this, calling out male child-raisers as exceptions while I'm sure you'll agree that roughly half of all parents are male.

When that's the topic at hand we should keep those distinctions in mind.
I had several 20% projects from 2012 to 2016, all of which were on the Cloud Business side (ie not engineering). It was very much a thing up until Larry Page stepped down as CEO
Thanks. I've spent the morning looking and that would explain why I couldn't find it.
Used one myself with Immersed, I’m a single screen guy so it wasn’t worth it for me. Works pretty well though no major complaints.
This is in response to people saying that PDFs do meet that requirement. I say they don't.
Resolution is the killer for that application. The panels in the Vision Pro are dense, but through the distortion of the optics and with those pixels stretched over your entire field of view only a fraction of them will actually be displaying your virtual monitor(s), and as you scale a monitor down in virtual space it also becomes lower resolution. For comfort and ergonomics you don't actually want a giant monitor that fills your entire FOV, there's a reason why real monitors have settled around 27-32" despite larger panels being available.

Ironically existing Apple users are the most likely to notice this limitation, since their computers have had very high DPI displays as standard for a long time.
> BTW this is where commute by public transport shines.

That depends on the public transport. When I lived in London (inside what is known as the zones 1-6), I had a walk, a wait for space on a train, then stand for 40 minutes on that completely packed train, then a change at a crowded station, then another wait for space on an underground train, then stand on a completely packed underground train. All of this while dealing with angry and rude other people trying to push on each step before you. I would get to work completely stressed and in a bad mood already. That is on a good day. On a bad day the trains would just be cancelled, or the underground halted, or something and it would take hours to just get to the office.

The only way I would consider going back to something like that is for a huge, huge amount of money.
I find it pretty acceptable these days. And has some advantages over Google maps due to native integration, like showing directly navigation screen when you take your phone out of your pocket without a need to unlock your phone or touch the screen.
Relatively dense small villages are a thing in many places. (And historically probably dominated.) Of course, as they get bigger, you've basically created at least a smaller city. And if they stay small you're going to have to travel to a great number of day-to-day locations like larger stores, medical, etc. that depend on a critical mass to operate.
I don’t understand what you’re saying. What’s wrong with the current interpretation of interstate commerce? What is that interpretation?

Are you arguing for the dismantling of Social Security? Medicare?

Are you arguing for Congress letting go of US territories to become their own sovereign countries? What if they want to remain part of the U.S.?
I’ve tried it with the Quest Pro, but latency and connectivity issues in combination with the clunky Quest operating system and confusing Immersed user interface, pushed me away.

I want it to just work. Put on the headset and immediately be connected.
I was going to impulse buy it but then they have put so many barriers that impulse buy is not possible. You must measure your face and have eye prescription ready! Wtf? I am in my bed and not going to do that for the privilege of pressing buy button. Now it’s not surprising that it’s still not sold out.
A good resource, with all the broods listed, including the two that are going to emerge this year (North Illinois Brood and Great Southern Brood) and the typical ranges of each brood: https://cicadas.uconn.edu/broods/
The iPad and the iPhone were heavily criticized when they came out. While both were pushing some good tech, they were also going against the general wisdom of what made a product in each category.
With all due respect, and I'm sure you all did great work there, but the underlying assumptions of those projects seem strange to me. E.g. if you want to reduce overfishing, why would the size of individual fishing families even be a problem - and not, say, factory trawlers that probably catch orders of magnitude more fish?
This is awesome! Can't wait to dig in, thanks for the links.
Our company hired someone that they interviewed and initially rejected. The developer wasn't a good fit for the initial role, but then a maintenance role opened up about six months later.
Interesting perspective. I'm 43. 15 years ago, Obama was a week away from being inaugurated. I was still in the Army. I hadn't met my wife yet. I can't think of a single thing I own today that I owned then. Forget computing devices. Not even the same house or same car or any clothes. My oldest cat is close. I got her Christmas 2009. Feels like an entirely differently lifetime. Hell, the first mobile phone I ever owned at all was 2007. The first laptop I ever owned was 2003. Nothing about that decade feels like "a couple years ago" other than pop culture. Apparently Taylor Swift had the top selling album of 2009. I'm pretty sure she's still popular.

I guess it's an interesting cutoff. I bought my first house in 2010, so a lot of household things from then are things I still own. Shovels and ladders and what not. Certainly not telecommunications and computing devices, though. There has been way too much upheaval and change in protocols and hardware capabilities since then. Possibly no electronics at all? I think all the circuit breakers and outlets in my house are different than then. I suppose flashlights work basically the same.

Well, well, even the iOS Safari that shipped with the first iPhone was miles ahead of anything else out there.
