I'm mentioned Seeking Truth. You just sharing some priests link. What If I am a Buddist, Hindu or Just Juda. Think yourself how you are fooled by modern cult groups.(They address themself science community).

A truth needs evident or at least proper supporting documents. Big bang and evaluation theories aren't have ANY VALID DOC. It's about to hallucinate peoples by the domonitating cult groups pushing their own stories in the name of science.
If you actually did the work, you would not have shared a list of prototypes, failed projects, and disappointments.

Sounds nice, but in many ways corporations are sock puppets for their executives. At best, you'll have to close every loophole the tax code to actually make the idea work. Vs. if the exec's can still stuff their own pockets with money shuffled through an Irish subsidiary, then a shell company in some tax haven, then, a bizarre financial instrument crafted for that purpose ... then they'll do exactly that.
The fact that Godot requires/required a third party studio to port your game to consoles is a major turnoff and one of the things preventing developers jumping on the Godot train. From a solo dev point of view, too scary and expensive; from an indie company's point of view it's an unwanted extra expense and a potential point of failure that you can't control.

This opens things up considerably, despite the Nintendo walled garden.

Tell me what makes you believe that those big techs are not going suit those "banking, insurance,legal" orgs by providing them their own LLMs? For example, ever heard about github enterprise? you pay a stupid amount, github setup everything almost identical to the public github, just on your servers for your employees. Why big techs won't do the same here?

Those high profit margin part of the LLM business is for big players only, they don't burn hundreds of billions to offer you opportunties to cut their profit by capitalizing on their core business.

I don't understand why it has to be a "product" with a "market". Mastodon (and old-school forums) have shown that as long as you can cover the hosting costs of an instance, you can have social media without the bad incentives that giant centralized networks have.

The lesson of the past 15 years is that creating a "global town hall" with hundreds of millions of daily users doesn't guarantee profitability. So why not decentralize and try to go small and local, like the phpBB forums that are still chugging along?
It may be that the tools we have come to rely on so much to define such terms are, almost by definition, inadequate to to define consciousness. The scientific method and rational discourse are used to describe objective reality; I don't know that they can fully answer the "hard" problem of consciousness because it is largely concerned with subjective reality.

Yeah that's nice. Does it reduce the d6 to a d2 basically?

In this system we're trying, you roll a fixed batch of die, and grab as many as you can that add up to your skill level. The number so "captured" is how well you do.

This very well matches the norm CDF, with naturally higher skill being better, and has nice means and variances that "spread out" at higher levels of difficulty. So easy tasks are easy because you need to capture less and you are more likely to do so. Harder tasks have a much broader range of skills that have a decent chance of succeeding due to higher variance so everyone gets to help.

We added in a bunch of sugar to make multi-roll complex checks as minigames, synergy so more people can help and so on, to make rolls as collaborative as possible.

Should probably update the screenshot, it's ancient and doesn't really show the current state when it comes to the performance. The job system used to push work to threads, but has been completely rewritten to better utilize many-core CPUs.

Also, if you look closely at the profiler, you'll see that we spend 2.2ms in the frame just waiting for the previous frame to finish. That was a major performance hog at the time.

This frame also basically shows no game logic whatever. So we just spend time waiting on other threads to finish while doing nothing else, which is also not indicative of a real-game scenario.
So how do you explain things that vary from culture to culture, or that drift over time?
Perhaps most interesting (or rather surprising) to me are the ones were it goes an opposite way (whether male or female that more often holds the preference) according to whether it's the 'Top STEM doctoral students' class, or 'Profoundly gifted top 0.01%'.

Is that because of STEM or academic career inclination vs. general giftedness? Or is it just pointing to a small sample and not statistically significant?

Part of the trend of needing to dumb down everything by removing "power" user features because we can't trust non-computer savvy users to not self immolate their data.
Sounds like a defective design. Just like MCAS.

Noting that you didn't solicit advice, but…

* Exporting shell variables such as HISTFILE isn't necessary, and can be unsafe. For example, if you decide to pop open unconfigured bash from within a zsh session it would intermingle its history on write.

* There is a smart keyboard subsystem that neatly manages terminal differences¹, making it much nicer compared to inserting {system,term}-specific escapes in to your config.

Hoping this comes across in the helpful spirit it was intended, not as nitpicky unwanted code review.

We have a ticket status in JIRA called "Parked". It allows us to capture the feedback so the stakeholder doesn't feel ignored. And if we get repeated requests, we can find it, bring it out of parked, and it starts to become a real thing.

There is the issue of dupes but it avoids the other issue, which is that if you hard decline too many requests from right after they are submitted, stakeholders may stop giving you feedback, which is a bad thing. So it is an unhappy middle ground (which is I feel the normal place which product management occupies. I could setup a small shop in the unhappy middle ground and sell souvenirs.)
As someone who has built offline-first, I noticed that as well : D

All the offline-first apps I've built have felt magically fast to load. It really is an incredible experience. I think its likely something to do with parsing/loading the initial view state that is taking a bit. Thats a pretty complicated widget so likely has to load libraries to handle it.
Yes, and that's what I'll probably end up doing. It surprised me that there is no off the shelf solution using computer vision and that piqued my interest to refresh the SOTA

That distributing a binary app was a good idea. The attacker found and fixed the vulnerability.

Of course it wasn't required to find the vulnerability, however if you make it then it's more likely that good guys will find and fix stuff. The contrary would be it's difficult to find this stuff, so then only highly motivated bad guys do it, because at that point 10 grand might not be worth it.

Again, this was all prefaced with it depends. Some might see it as making it easier to find problems, and others might say 'yeah, exactly.". It's just an opinion. A fact is however that a binary makes it easier. Source code would be even easier.
The general rule of thumb is that companies are free to decide what they look for and how to find it and so are candidates.

This is an open source database company, obviously the best candidates are contributors to the project first.

Are you implying that we would assign a public /64 subnet to a collection of nanites that were designed to be absorbed after a week in the human body, and then retire that subnet forever? This seems like an unlikely scenario, but I'll assume it's just an intellectual exercise and take a stab!

- Total number of /64 subnets available: 2^64

- Total number of humans in this future: Let's say 16 billion (roughly twice what we're at now)

To get the total number of months before we'd run out of /64 subnets, assuming each human is absorbing one every month, we divide the number of /64 subnets by the number of humans:

2^64 / 16 billion =~ 1,152,921,505

Divide by 12 to get the total number of years:

1,152,921,505 / 12 =~ 96,076,792

So by my math, assuming the human population stayed steady at 16 billion (which seems just as absurd as the initial premise) we'd have about 100 million years to figure out how to start reusing some of those old subnets before we started running into trouble.
But I'm not saying that the distinction between state and nonstate action is meaningless, I'm saying that the distinction between "large-scale organized action" and "non-state" action is meaningless.

or just build from scratch with assistant from AI - then market it as built by AI for AI.
Conceptually that's not hard, but in practice an approach like that can significantly increase the complexity of the app:

1. Do you store the tree structure for every table in your app? If you have 20 tables that could be edited offline, do you re-implement it for each table, or try to have a generic implementation?
2. Do you design all your tables around the tree structure, or do you just store it in addition to your "normal" tables?
3. Every piece of code that modifies one of these tables need to do it via the tree structure - if you update your tables directly from any place it could effectively cause conflicts.
4. Do you build separate UI to resolve conflicts for every table?
5. Do you query and cache the tree structure on the device, or does it have to be online to resolve conflicts?
6. Do you expose the tree structure via external APIs, or keep it internal?

I find that "last-write-wins" is sufficient for a large percentage of cases, and much simpler to implement. Or in some cases, just doing conflict detection is sufficient (notify the user that the data has changed between loading and saving, and they need to re-apply their edits).

If you do need conflict resolution on a large scale (many different tables), I'd recommend using data structures designed for that. CRDTs is one example - while it is typically used for automatic conflict resolution, it often stores enough data to allow manual resolution if desired.
I don't understand why the plug doesn't use pressure as a failsafe. You have high pressure one side, low the other side, and just like normal airline doors the interior pressure makes it impossible to open the door.
That just doesn't work for me for two reasons, they would have been recycled almost immediately as all metals were relatively precious, and why don't we find as many other training pieces?

And of course it goes without saying that they've appeared made out of non-metal materials.
This is one of the reasons that I try to avoid giving companies my number. I'm always worry that they will decide that it is a valid recovery mechanism for my account. (Either that it is required locking me out or that it is sufficient allowing takeover)
Conflict resolution and the inability to come to a business decision on what to do has stopped offline-first support in a couple apps I've done. Its a really messy conversation to have, especially with people that aren't used to sweating the details. You can't just handwave away the complexity!

Does anyone have the study where this originated?

This chart is quite difficult to read, and it's not clear how the data was collected or what amount of overlap exists between the people in each category. Also, what were the sample sizes? Are the men and women in approximately the same careers? These are preferences; were individuals asked to rank preferences or did they rate each preference independently? What does a standard deviation mean here (units)?

I take the display to mean that, for example, the sampled profoundly gifted women prefer to have satisfaction in their work much more than the sampled profoundly gifted men. Or does it mean that women rank satisfaction over other items more than men but they really do care equally about satisfaction in a nominal sense?

Can anyone else chime in on their interpretation?

> “Roman society was full of superstition,” writes the Norton Disney group. “A potential link with local religious practice is our current working theory. More investigation is required, though.”

That's funny. I think I stopped believing in God as a kid because in all the historical articles I read, it was clear that the people of the past just believed in superstition. It obviously follows that our current religions are also superstitions.
In addition to this: ruby-like classes and "sane"/expected handling of this using fat arrow functions. I've worked with a few developers at the time that considered themselves pure backend/rails developers and didn't (bother to) grok the details around the way this worked in JS.

I distinctly remember lots of var that = this; in JS code back then, which wasn't required anymore when using CoffeScript.
I don't know anything about orbital launch economics, but it wouldn't be ludicrous to say that SpaceX and satellite operators cannot eat the rising costs of launch insurance, if SpaceX was deemed too unreliable. In other words, it wouldn't be a good move for SpaceX to "sabotage" their own launches, because it will raise costs and undermine trust in the near future.
Your idea is inconsistent with the heat equation and with basic materials science. What do you derive this model from?
Slightly off-topic - I don't think real-time collaboration is suitable for text-based formats. I believe collaboration similar to working with git is superior:

1. Fork the text

2. Submit proposal

3. Review

4. Merge/Cancel

EDIT: To slightly expand on this - there are many reasons for this intuition - the main, IMO, is that people like to work on text privately before showing it to people. Also, the mental fear of your text interrupted by someone else. There might be even more reasons.
But isn't saying that the big bang theory has been "confirmed" also misleading? That seems like a fair critique to me. Not to dismiss anybody's work, but it is important to express scientific accomplishments and advancements accurately (especially to a public that is vulnerable to manipulation by sources they deem to be authoritative).

Exactly: Spinning off Spirit makes no sense in terms of outsourcing: It was Boeing's own factory that formed the basis of Spirit, which made Spirit a sole-supplier of critical components with exactly zero technical advantage, and exactly zero capacity advantage over doing it in house.
