Predictive models need not at all reflect what actually happens. Sometimes embracing less accurate models is actually need to enhance understanding. Epicycles in the geocentric model could be made very accurate as far as observations in the sky are concerned, but it wasn't a good world model.
I agree they're worth a contribution, but sometimes I just want a device to work and even Armbian isn't as well supported as Raspberry Pi OS. For example 2 days ago I tried to get my Orange Pi 4 working. It turns out Armbian's Orange Pi 4 builds have had broken HDMI for months. There's value in having something just work.

There's already a post about this issue on the forums, and a fix: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/26818-opi-4-lts-no-hdmi-outp... . But the precompiled version offered isn't for my board (I have the non-LTS version), so I'll have to compile it myself.
“Struggling” is factual. Flexport had a public CEO and leadership shit show and 20% staff layoff last year.

If they didn’t want to be considered “struggling” they should have put a lid on that drama.
> I don't think most people considered the WTC as a symbol of anything other than tall buildings

The WTC clearly represents American economic might, but the Pentagon was attacked also and that represents American military power. The White House narrowly avoided being hit. Additionally, people don’t have to consciously understand what things symbolize for that to be make an impact on them. Plus, it wasn’t just a message to Americans but to the world, especially the Muslim world, and the WTC had been unsuccessfully attacked 8 years previously so it was a symbol of failure for them. Not afterwards!
For me indeed it takes >30 sec to get hot water in the kitchen (modern kitchens have small boilers), but the washers are near the boiler, so hot fill would be more efficient. The boiler supplies 60 deg C water though, so that is not enough for the 90 deg C program for example. And then you need a heating element anyway...
Fundamental law regarding AI should make it illegal, IMHO, to impersonate a human being. Every AI output should clearly state it's from a computer (no using the anthropomorphic word 'intelligence'): 'This text is generated by a computer.'

Give a valid reason to do otherwise. I can't think of one, unless you want to mislead people. Corporations can still have their chatbot customer service, and add that tagline. The only reason not to is so their customers think they are talking to a human.
This is not thread safe.
I'll bet that wasn't across AWS accounts though.
Shit Life Syndrome is on the increase. It seems that a lot of people feel that they and their loved ones are quickly running out of track.
The article is about menus, not ordering.

Physical menus can include photos and be easy to navigate. Most physical menus have separate sections for appetizer, side dishes, main course, etc.

It's possible to incorporate ordering online into a paper menu (QR code/codes) for folks who don't want to wave at a waiter.

In addition, a physical menu does not require you to use data or log on to the restaurant's wifi, is guaranteed not to track your browsing through the menu, can take up far more physical space than available on a phone screen, and won't start the dinner by everyone looking at their phones (and someone forced to help out the technically-challenged party member).

Ordering without waiting is nice. Navigating a digital menu is too often a pain. Want to add a drink? That's on another tab, please wait while we load&render, no it's further down, oh you wanted non-alcoholic? Want to change your main? Okay, let's first remove it (load basket), go back to ordering, go back to main dishes... Oh didn't you want that appetizer? Load again and scroll to see if your memory triggers... etc etc etc. sigh.
Just encoding algebraic chess notation gets you to 9 bits without much skill: 3 bits for the 6 pieces, 3 bits for rank and 3 bits for file, with the edge cases shoved in the extra encoding space given that you have 3 bits to encode 6 pieces.

On average, chess has a branching factor of 30-40, so you need a touch more than 5 bits on average even with clever Huffman coding. Just Huffman coding regular algebraic chess notation for movement would probably get you down to 6 bits on average.

Of course, the other issue is that the tighter you compress the data, the harder it is to actually manipulate that data, and it's not clear that the space saving for denser encodings is worth it.
I think the point is that they're akin to a watermark.

Even before the current AI boom, plenty of artists have wanted to showcase their work/prove that it exists without necessarily making the highest quality original file public.
It's already implemented in a limited number of cameras recently.

A hardware key proves which camera it came from, and a blockchain hash proves at least when the camera first connected to the internet after taking the photo. So, if anyone tries to claim your photo as their own, you need only point to the blockchain to prove it's actually yours. It also proves you didn't use any beauty filters outside the camera hardware security bubble.

https://news.adobe.com/news/news-details/2022/Adobe-Partners...

I predict it's going to go mainstream in a new iPhone model eventually. Consumers will become sold on the idea of authenticity. They are sick of fakes and filters, but didn't yet have any way to prove something is real.
Again, the topic isn't other countries, the topic is the USA. My comment addresses that topic. You're trying to argue something completely orthogonal to what my comment or the one I'm responding to is about.
A significant part of the web nowadays runs code in your browser and interacts with a thin layer in front of a database.

A much part of the web uses a local in-browser db and syncs it up with a database on the server.
Can't remember the exact name but I remember seeing a similar pi0 sized board with POE ethernet and an m.2 slot for wifi, and thinking it'd be perfect for a WAP.

Unfortunately it was a industrial vendor so don't think you can buy it in low quantities and the price is probably way too high for what it is.

I feel like there must be a market for something like that tough, a board with the bare essentials to make it cheap enough to have a few around the house / office and leave it up to the customer to find a wireless card that could be upgraded down the line.

Why wouldn't you just use stock Debian? The first rpi used a weird CPU, which didn't map well to the CPUs supported by the stock OSs, but that hasn't been true since that very first one.
A very well made documentary about Atacama desert, ALMA and people still looking for their relatives in the desert from the Pinochet killings. It's ranked as one of the greatest documentaries ever made.

Well yeah, there's that. My assumption about the worry the author expressed was that it was just an "I'm a little uncomfortable with mains power" type worry, not "did I buy a crappy part that's going to explode" type worry. If it was the latter, that's, well... entirely avoidable.
See the seldon_mallow comment with the link to https://www.fluidreality.com/, they do this with small devices that don't need stored air. The "breakthrough" here feels like the connection between the haptic array and the software, if that is the case, then the implementation can be done in lots of ways.
Considering all of my confidential information has already been leaked by some tech entity or another, yeah a bit paranoid. Concentrated data is juicier than mining trash.
Sounds interesting (but a bit above my pay grade). AWS uses a streaming tech called NICE DCV which runs in a browser (chromium) on my raspberry pi.

I was using a RP 4 before, but the performance is noticeably better with the RP 5.
One phenomenon I’ve seen several times during recent conflicts is people swearing blind that an image must be fake, and even insisting some vague shadow is a sixth finger proving their point, even when the photo later proves to have pretty reliable provenance. It’s a reasonable immune response and maybe we’ll all end up there but it seems just as worrying and tragic as fake images themselves.
I think this also depends where you live. Driving in NYC is very different from driving in Montana.
Interesting variation on the technique. From https://www.fluidreality.com/
The code interpreter probably has access to sqlite for this purpose, as well.
That's probably the case for the US too. The numerous missile silos all over middle America, in the middle of farmlands probably made for very attractive targets.
I used to think this way as well, but then I started doing the actual math.

My last power bill was ~$103 for exactly 256kw, or put another way about $0.40/kwh. For context this is in NYC. I'm sure other people have cheaper power elsewhere.

0.01kw * 24 hours * 30 days * 0.4 $/kwh = $2.88 a month or about $35 a year.

If something is going to be on constantly, the ROI on a 10watts savings can quickly out pace the initial investment.

And that is every 10 watts. Something using 100watts continuously is 10 times that.

This affected a bunch of my other thinking as well. Having a raspberry pi in my home as always on server costs as much a small linode instance and much less reliable.
Sure, just like Sadam.. Have your seen Bush recently about that? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58DXSSBs4u0

"the result is an absence of checks and balances in Russia and the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq.. i mean of Ukraine... heh.. Iraq too"
In the 60s the US contemplated nuking China in response to a Soviet strike on the US:

"In 2012, the Interagency Security Classification Appeals Panel (ISCAP) declassified an important document on the pre-delegation instructions approved by President Lyndon Johnson in early 1964. Under the instructions, if the Soviet Union or China launched a nuclear attack on the United States that knocked the president or his successor out of action, making communication impossible, U.S. commanders-in-chief of unified or specified commands (such as Strategic Air Command or European Command) had the authority to retaliate against the entire Sino-Soviet bloc, even if some Soviet allies or China had not launched an attack."

Plus another one, ice expanding on a Frozen Lake.

It has a unique sound. I had to find a youtube for a friend in the south who never heard that sound. Here it is, you may need to raise your volume:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFSb-7PUjOU

When we were on the lake, for fun, we would scare the newbies to make them think the ice was breaking. A right of passage for all kids in my area, sadly, I have not heard that sound for a very long time.

In fact, these days I am too afraid to walk on a frozen lake in my area. Decades ago, there were times you could drive on a frozen lake.

Don't you want two? :-).
Lots of wars started that way before AI: Spanish-American ('remember the Maine!'), Vietnam (Gulf of Tonkin), Iraq (nuclear weapons program), etc.

AI would seem to make it worse. I think it will also get worse because warmongers can automate propaganda and, with social media, reach people directly.
True I can imagine that kind of thing becoming popular.
Mhmm that makes Mongolia the perfect place to put missile launchers ;)
That would include US citizen too. They probably just realistically looked at the survival chances of West Berlin in case of full scale war. Soviets were confident that with conventional warfare they would reach the Channel in mere weeks, nuclear was really the only deterrent.
I don’t really know. The context is that as a kid I went to a kind of a military training after school activity. That sounds super weird, I know, but it was fun, got to learn the basic military training.

Anyway, we had a summer camp for a week or so near one of these decommissioned rocket facilities, and we were just told to not go anywhere near the silos, as they’re pretty deep. So, I know where it is, but I don’t know when it was commissioned.
Production and shipping is a one time event and most likely in the same ballpark regardless how much energy the device uses.

Whereas power consumption is recurring and it adds up. Multiply the difference by hundreds of thousands or more devices and it is no longer is trivial.
No, that must be some other country, perhaps where one of the last two leaders was actually elected.

> Factually wrong? Are you saying that Musk designs and builds the rockets?

Yes he did help to design and build the rockets. By literally any definition. His impact on the final products of SpaceX is clearly larger then anybody else at SpaceX. And if you actually read the books on the topic, listen to talks with people who worked with him rather then some anti-space socialists on twitter.

> I think his behavior has very clearly changed over the past 20 years.

Many people change over 20 years ... but he didn't really fundamentally. Buying twitter came at the end of years of talking about speech and so on.

> If I hire a contractor to renovate my bathroom, and the results are good, is it because I had a hand in it?

Containing with the nonsense of 'he is just the finance' guy. Again, just nonsense. Honestly, inform yourself.

Its called selection bias.

Welcome to america.

And it still is.

> He grabbed the wheel and drove it straight into a wall.

How about we judge the company 5 or 10 years after he takes control. Tesla was a shitshow when he took over as well.

Twitter will likely never have the absurd valuation it had before, but to claim it 'drove into a wall' just isn't accurate.

> I think that when someone acts mentally ill, they tend to be mentally ill.

Again, I love to know what he has actually done that constitutes 'act mentally ill'. You can point to lots of things that make him not very like-able, but those aren't the same thing.

Literally your only argument seems to be 'twitter is now worth less then when he bought it'. So you think any company that gets acquired and doesn't justify its value means the CEO who bought it is mentally ill? Was Balmer mentally ill when he bought Nokia?

But go to now that you are professional therapist who can make medical diagnosis.

> The only counterargument seems to boil down to, "But he has a lot of money."

That's literally zero % of the argument but I guess that is what you need to tell yourself for your reasoning to make sense. He is rich because he is rich, and he is crazy because he wastes money on things you don't find important.

Apparently Vienna was an early Soviet target: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/austria/13...

But I don't think it was about the post-nuclear-war hegemony, it was more immediate. There was always the risk that e.g. Swedish airfields could be used by USA (with or without Swedish approval) to bomb e.g. St. Petersburg.

Public school in WA state, Masters degree, first year I'm making about $75k.

The trick is that it will take me 16 years to get to the top of the pay scale and make what I made as a software developer last year ($115K). When the union asks what I want, that is what I tell them. Top pay is fine, but it takes too long to get there.

I like the job a lot more and its only about three times as much work.

It's was part of the very same tax package and implemented for the same reason: It made the trump tax cuts look economically more reasonable by sticking in time delayed increases on tax burdens that would land on disproportionately on democrats. Yet democrats were unable to undo it because dem platform programs need the funding.

On what basis will it be different here? Dems are almost completely disengaged on the bill intended to fix this, almost all the activity for and against appears to be republicans.

Addicted's confident statement "Even when this fix is passed, it will be voted for unanimously by Democrats" seems misplaced and unlikely. If that were likely we would have seen broad dems support on fixing the SALT tax limits and we just didn't.
Isn't this a lot more work both for the user and the RDBMS than just using a relatively simple left join?
Just saw your reply today. That's an excellent memory you have. Surprised anyone remembers me talking about it.

I am still working on it. Just in my spare time. Maybe a release later this year if everything else works out and I can keep focus. Keeping focus is the difficult part, of course.
I also used Wise for a home purchase. The other upside is they give you an IBAN which lets you transfer money anywhere in EU at zero cost. The process is ACH from your US bank to Wise, then convert to Euros, finally transfer IBAN to IBAN. There might be a better way, but it was the least expensive and easiest method I found.

First time I realized this was possible was in the TV show Mr. Robot [0] and I thought it couldn't have been that easy. However, after my experience within the cybersecurity sector, I can see this happen easily. Old processes that require implicit trust don't work in the modern, connected world.

We already have the technology (PKI with smartcards) to fix this, but unless something really bad happens, there doesn't seem to be a rush to do so.

I usually have some form of pastrami in a well sealed container in the refrigerator, this is one of my ingredients for a need-a-quick-to-prepare-meal. They last for weeks if properly sealed.

But my point wasn't really about the fitness of the specific ingredients, rather, why would I associate those with emotional distress with vegetarians? My wife and daughter are vegetarians and I have no negative associations with that lifestyle. But looking back, many emotionally distressed people that I've met have been vegetarians I think, thought I do not imply that the association also goes the other way.

I wonder if there have been studies on correlations - I should not have been able to predict that.

I'd love to see you try to enforce that license because it would only prove my point. You'd have to sue me; then I would point to the terms of service of this platform and point out that by using it, you have no license here.

Fair use though, only applies as a legal defense because someone asserts you stole their work. Then ONLY the court decides whether or not you used it under fair use. You don't get to make that decision; you just get to decide whether to try and use it as a defense.

Even if you actually did unfairly use copyrighted works, you would be stupid not to use that as a defense. Because maybe somebody on the jury agrees with you...
Care to share your opinion more clearly? PCIE is eating the world? More modular computing systems? None of that seems "big" to me so I am probably missing your point.
Whether it's irrelevant is a matter of opinion. The fact remains that a machine being able to copy the artistic style of a human makes it so that anyone can produce output in the style of that human by just feeding the machine electricity. That inherently devalues the style the artist has painstakingly developed. If someone wants a piece of art in that artist's style they don't have to go to that artist, they just need to request the machine for what they want. Is the machine's output of low quality? Maybe. Will there be people for whom that low quality still makes them want to seek out the human? No doubt. It doesn't change the fact that the style is still devalued, nor that there exist artists who would want to prevent that.
