So does that mean that making a fusion reactor makes as much sense as building a containment vessel for a compost reactor?

My AMD Framework 13 occasionally hangs and requires hard reset to come back to life. No errors are generated. As far as I can tell it instantly and unpredictably stops executing any instructions at all.

There hasn't been a driver or firmware update in three months.

The keyboard and trackpad are mediocre.

The fan vents are on the bottom of the computer where they're almost permanently blocked.

It's not a terrible computer, and it does have what was most important to me when I was buying (a matte 3:2 screen). But I can't recommend it to anybody.
Unless you’re being sarcastic, go try and watch West World on Max. As a bonus, you will discover one of the reasons we cancelled Max.
Thanks for the link! It seems interesting.
Sounds like a great trip (IF you like being on a boat).

Great teachers(if you can find them): Andrej Karpathy, Andrew Gelman & Ben Goodrich(Columbia), Subbarao Khambampati(ASU) to name a few I know of.

Go Where the hard problems are (or find someone who is doing it): If you don't have a good intuition where to get good problems to practice on for a pay, choose a place to work where a Data Scientist is not just building dashboards/analytics but the company/team relies on them for answer to questions like: "What goals should we set for the next half based on what you see"?

ML practitioner (read: use ML tech to do/debug X) different from ML Engineer (Read: Implement ML algorithm X e2e on data ) is different from Applied Statistician (think marketing sciences or powering experiments like A/B tests): All three areas of work in different areas of ML in one form or another. But make sure what you want to work in is clear in your head and your expectations from it.

A lot of ML/Stats can be not with big data and yet really intuitive: I would say look for a problem domain in social/life/pharma/eco/political/survey/edtech sciences. They are full of intuitive models that need to be explainable and are often debuggable. An example here is usage of Stan software for Multilevel/Heirarchical Regression problems. Training here also makes you a great DS.
We showed a proof of concept of exactly this actually at our initial launch event for Framework Laptop 16 last year. It's still something we see as an interesting use case to support, but we don't have a timeline around productization of it.

Heterogeneous but predictable from distance, no?

Routing chip-to-chip in a 2x2 or 3x2 with a fused link is less complicated than around a 1,600-core layout with multiple fused links.

Playing with electricity just feels more "real" in the sense that you're working directly with the constraints of the physical world. It's more tangible.
For example stuff like manual classification/feedback manual "testing" various release candidates (more for which feels better then which is better, benchmarks are likely automatized)

or stuff like "filter out all offensive text/pictures", which could include some pretty bad stuff

rate this X answers

are this filtered answers which where filtered out as inappropriate actually inappropriate?

etc. etc.
This is interesting. More questions. (from someone who obviously doesn't know about this stuff)

> The track exists, more or less, because of betting, and not just at the track.

Does the track hosting the race get a cut of OTB operations or sell bookies who are working remotely a data feed? So what we're really talking about is the track's CCTV having to compete with some random person's cell phone video or drone video, all of which might be streaming to a casino in Vegas or something?

It seems like that Vegas casino which is hosting gamblers and taking bets also has an incentive to kick somebody out if they see that they're looking at a remote data stream and placing bets, rather than looking at the casino's televisions or whatever. Does that happen?

>> Rather than surveilling the track for violators, can't they stop taking bets prior to the start of the race?

> Well, that would make them less money.

This is the part I don't get. If people are betting in real time during the race, isn't the human bookie a terrible bottleneck in the observe race/adjust odds/take new bets loop the bookie is engaged in? (even if he's just pushing a few buttons on a computer as quickly as possible) I can see how people would want to game this system.

No, but there are technical mechanisms that provide a high level of assurance in most scenarios. There's a reason iMessage does not suffer spam and why cheating in Xbox online gaming is non-existent.
The typical weight loss with one of the new weight loss drugs is 10-20% of initial bodyweight...this is even after reducing daily caloric intake to just 1000-1,500 calories/day or fewer, similar to gastric bypass. In other words, some obese peoples' metabolisms are so messed up that even near-starvation levels of food still leaves them overweight, just not as fat as they were before. Something is wrong...either the food supply ,genetics, or becoming obese permanently changes the body to enter full-time fat storage mode. A case can be made that these drugs should be prescribed to everyone who is starting to gain weight, not just the obese, to prevent this transition.
I think being missed is more than that:

> The warrant authorizing the raid expressly forbade federal agents from engaging in a "criminal search or seizure of the contents of the safety [sic] deposit boxes."

and then

> Under typical FBI procedure, the boxes should have been taken into custody until they could be returned to their rightful owners. But those "supplemental instructions" drawn up by the special agent in charge of the operation told agents to be on the lookout for cash stored inside the safe-deposit boxes and to note "anything which suggests the cash may be criminal proceeds."

So no judge was involved in the decision to seize cash. It was an agent on the site who came up with supplemental instructions. There are a million reasons this should be illegal.
Frankly that weight is from the modularity of the system. To build something repairable/modular requires scaffolding this isn't necessary if you solder and glue everything together; that's why companies like Apple do it. You are giving up some things in order to get the promised repairability of a framework.

If you want the lightest laptop with the longest battery life, you'd get a Mac. If you want the best bang for your buck go with a basic Ultrabook. If your willing to have a bit more weight, size and a bit less battery in exchange for repairability/customization, that's the niche framework fits well.
He is obsessive and meticulous about coffee, that's kind of the whole point of his channel. I came to mostly the same conclusions as him through trial and error while trying to get consistently rich coffee with it. It's actually quite easy to end up with something that tastes burnt, obscenely bitter, or metallic. It tastes delicious when you get it just right, but it can end up tasting considerably worse than good old set it & forget it drip coffee if you are careless/clueless.

Kind of weird this became a meme, since Italians are stereotypically supposed to really care about good coffee. My best guess is that for many households, the Bialetti is their version of Mr Coffee that they fire up in the morning to get out of the house before work and don't have the time or inclination to care about how it tastes. If they want something fancy and delicious that's what the 50 cafes within walking distance are for. That or their following a sub-optimal family tradition for how to brew with it.

Anyway, I only watched the video once but from what I recall the only thing that seemed especially over the top was the trivet to buffer the heat of the stove.
QuickTime is a very legacy format, one that even apple seems to have internally pared down heavily. It's one of the first, and it's going to have rough edges.

I rode with a work acquaintance at night once, and noticed he kept his high beams on the whole time, despite oncoming traffic. I eventually said something, like shouldn't you dim your lights when there's someone oncoming? He looked at me like I had antlers growing out of my forehead. "Duh... The high beams are brighter and let me see better." That's the bottom line: Not even a thought about other drivers. And these people are everywhere.
It’s infuriating.

Execs at company I worked for wanted to send data to another company. They asked us to work with their vendor who used AI to map data and fix it………the vendor had a bunch of MBAs and no devs. They kept saying AI without any substance and were completely useless and time wasters. Eventually we reached out to the original company and mapped the data ourselves in a day…no AI needed.
Atlas (and Felt, as another commenter mentioned) are interesting, but seem to be targeting a market I feel is too small. If you're established in GIS, you likely have your own stack (and biases). If you're new to it and need something more than just a visualization tool, these offerings can work well, but I fear that users may quickly outgrow the functionality and then move to a more conventional GIS offering.

I do like how Felt includes QGIS integrations as a marketing point. I feel like tools like these are great compliments, but not wholesale replacements. "The new standard for GIS software" is a gross overstatement. If I normally deal with data in the multi-GB range, limiting my uploads to 250MB seems woefully insufficient.

And I think far too many people have experienced data loss when any new platform goes under. Both Atlas and Felt have "sign in with Google" but not Microsoft OAuth which just seems odd to me unless they truly aren't targeting the existing desktop GIS user community. Import/export from OneDrive/O365 would likely be a selling point to many GIS users.
I was thinking in chess moves so looking a few moves ahead rather than just what's in front of us now. Use this in conjunction with a CO2 extractor from the atmo, and now you're getting a 2-for-1 of the "clean".

Really I would say the exact opposite, at least with regard to YouTube. Their Apple TV app is genuinely the only bad Apple TV app I've ever used. Constant problems with audio de-sync, random freezes and blank screens. By comparison I don't remember the last time any of the others I use (infuse, Max, D+, Prime) have had any issues at all.
I completely agree manufacturing takes significant oversight, but only a tiny fraction of that manpower goes back 2+ years on a small scale production project like this.

Apple has a pipeline and they move experts between projects. The team making commercials is another late yet critical addition.
well this was correct for about a decade
It feels like the people who literally believe this as an actual political concern is a vanishingly small contingent, especially given that the ship has already sailed with SSNs and the like, making this more of a partisan talking point strawman. Of course I do respect that the relevant political party has made their whole platform one of stirring up such tempests in teapots instead of focusing on substantive policy. But still regardless of the possible superstitious narratives that objections may end up taking, the best way to eliminate objections is to address the actual practical concerns. And that is chiefly the myriad of ways in which existing identifiers are being abused.
Everybody knows it's wrong in the sense that Newton's theory is wrong, and that Einstein's theory is probably wrong. Models get refined in physics all the time, that's how it works.

The BBT has a lot of issues in the details, but the overall picture - that around 14 billion years ago the universe was in a hot dense state and has been expanding ever since - is absolutely undisputed since Penzias' discovery. We can literally see the expansion, and we can even see the glimmer of that initial hot dense state. That's exactly the CMB discovered by the Penzias and Wilson.
Well Oreos are vegan, so yay for plant based food.
But those are not the only language they know though it's just a different language. The parts of a person's brain where language and speech exist are already developed. It's a mix of several areas for comprehension, speech, flow of speech - it's quite complex and not a single spot in a person's brain.

But generally, most other UIs support it. It has serious limitations though, for example it center-crops the input to 224x224px. (which is enough for a surprisingly large amount of uses, but not enough for many others)
Yup. Which is why people look for places, like deposit boxes, where it is harder for them to grab stuff.

We had a translucent version of the Bezel for Framework Laptop 13, which we shipped to the people who ordered it in the first few batches of 13th Gen and Ryzen 7040 preorders last year. The manufacturing yields ended up too low to continue production of it with the tooling we re-use across a number of different Bezel colors, so we removed the option from new orders.
9% is nothing. how much did they hire last year?
I think one of the issues is that fixing a problem is a lot harder in ML than in software engineering. You know that the model fails on this particular data point. If you have identified a bug in the code and wrote a fix did a pull request as long you are able to test the code for conditions you failed on you would have solved the problem. With modern ml especially with nueral nets as long as you don't have a way to spin up a data engine to track the problems you are facing and collect similar points you problem is not fixed.
I can't find source now, but I'd read before that they didn't properly inventory the items, and so now some large amount of it can't be traced back to owners.

Evidently he was allowed until he was no longer allowed.
"as long as people are just units inserted into well-defined slots, the machinery doesn't need to care who they are." -- nailed it
This proposal moves the list to other systems. I dislike unbounded backlogs too - but a single searchable database is better, IMO. (Though Github issues et. al. have such bespoke, bad, limited, bad, half-baked, bad search.. Gah.)
Right, but is anybody willing to pay for this? Not taking down the rain forest is opportunity cost. Who is going to pay for this?
But "go to the mat" I believe comes from wrestling, not from safe houses.
Yes. I was there from late 1990 to late 1993. The Labs were struggling to adjust after the breakup which was many years before. AT&T had Bell Labs, the Regional Bell Operating Companies had BellCore. Both were paid by taxing business orgs who were struggling to compete with MCI, Sprint, and other communication companies that did no research. None of the business orgs liked paying the tax and wanted results to show for whatever they did pay.

Penzias had put Bell Labs on notice that it would have to get more applied while still maintaining the research excellence. There wasn't much direction on how to do both. The philosophy regarding any problem was, "You're smart, figure it out." Additionally, he felt the future was in software so the physical and materials science orgs where I resided felt the pinch that much harder.

Nevertheless, my management pressed the case for physical sciences hard and at often substantial personal and professional cost. The postdocs were well shielded from all this. No matter what was playing out at the higher levels, the doors stayed open and just about everyone was up for a discussion of whatever was on our minds. Go in with a middlin' idea, come out with three better ones.
That's a fair suggestion. I'll see about including some functionality for users to include additional news sites.

In the meantime, we did used to carry Al Jazeera but their endpoint had broken for some time. I've re-enabled it now to begin ingesting.
I was thinking about this recently as well. People generally underestimate the engineering effort and infrastructure needed to achieve what Netflix has which is essentially that it offers a smooth, fast video player on all nearly every platform, including my toaster. You realize how (apparently) difficult this is especially when it comes to fast forward and rewind. This is a mostly seamless experience on Netflix (and YouTube as well), but extremely janky and frustrating on Prime Video as well as Disney+. Getting to the precise spot you want on Netflix (and YT) is easy both on mobile as well as when using a remote on TV, which is typically a pretty awful experience. I get super frustrated when trying to fast forward and rewind NBA League Pass on Prime, though I wonder how much of this has to do with them doing less caching and/or still image grabbing for less watched things? All I know is that I wish I could have this subscription on Netflix and have considered moving it over to YouTube TV.
> I suspect many of them are teens or young adults and improve over time

Given my experience with crackpots from my time as a cosmology grad student, my money is more on retired old men, in particular engineers.

Without commenting on the risks vs. rewards of sharing your genetic material, services like Nebula Genomics have reasonably priced (USD$249 30x, USD$899 100x) sequencing that's extremely high quality and suitable for getting into learning bioinformatics, if you're willing to wait for a few months and that's your jam (i.e. the data is sufficiently deep and full coverage that you can get meaningful results from it as opposed to the limited view of SNP analysis like 23andme or ulta-low-depth sequencing).

The last frontier for consumer/prosumer genomics is hifi sequencing for correctly getting at your hard-to-read areas that are full of long repeated runs. Dante Labs offers sequencing that targets this for about USD$1900, but it's an evolving area in terms of bang for your buck.
