By "slower, more gradual levels" do you mean falling behind and taken over by some other foreign company? History showed time and time again (in every sphere) that more aggressive, more hungry competitor (company, person) will win in the end. Europe is the notorious "old man" of the world.
In those days of ubiquitous information, these kind of stops have lost all interest, because the prices are not better than the average second hand item.
Type 45 Destroyer's Sea Viper to Get Anti-Ballistic Missile Upgrade
It is easy to check for literal copies of the training material. I expect the providers to just add a filter doing that.

But I don’t think it resolves all the problems. Newspapers are losing their business model. Maybe it is just creative destruction and we’ll have something better in their place. Maybe, but journalism is quite important in our societies.
Yeah, same here in Spain. Just the same short news in any channel, neither left/right opinions from the journalists nor lengthy and unneeded details; next to it, some services mimicking newspaper sections.
Surely someone in the chain goes through these bags for obvious expensive things beforehand. Why would that not happen?

Thanks for the links and info. Totally fair on my not sharing those in my original post. I was coming at it thinking in terms of still making it useful to others. WARC seems like a good first step. I'm just not sure what the intermediate steps would be to get something usable like a vBulletin -- basically with the intention of being able to continue sharing the archived stuff with users who may not be as technical and only know how to consume from a forum format if that makes sense.

Thanks again.
Acquire, Embracer, Extinguish.

This company recently laid off, I think it was 40% of the people, from its Riot Games as well.

Nintendo made a statement maybe not directly about embracer but that they choose to not do layoffs for short-term profitability but instead they are simply frugal. Because they don't want to make their employees be afraid of layoffs. Embracer has not made a similar statement.
Yeah I didn't find it there either, but there is an IEEE paper with testing [0]. Looks like they only did single event effect testing (SEE) and not total ionizing dose (TID) as well. The SEE is for looking and effects for individual memory upsets, latchup, gate rupture, etc. You can still do a lot with a chip if you are only getting the non-destrucrive effects with memory scrubbing and resets (as long as you're not mission critical). But the destructive effects (like gate rupture) are the ones that could make this totally infeasible depending on the limit.

Not surprised that they didn't do TID as it was only supposed to be a 90 day demo mission so not terribly long. And TID can be a costly test because it can take so long.

As to the GPUs, yeah the main application is some processing when you are comm bandwidth constrained. Then you can send down processed products or snapshots from something that is collecting a lot of data (like large imager or high bandwidth SDR)

There are hundreds of thousands of professional actors in the world. Very few of them are able to get away with playing the same character, because that rarely pays the bills.

But for a few select leading actors, playing the same character in different films (mostly, action flicks) allows them to create generational wealth.
I suspect a show for entertainment would script it a bit and add some high end stuff. So the fact that even after watching you say it's rare to find good stuff tells me it's even worse than the show lets on.

This is absolutely permitted in America. It is illegal in countries like Germany which have no strong free speech protections.
I propose the Leisure Suit Larry method. Just make users answer some outdated trivia questions that only olds will know when they sign up for an account.
In that just world, the royalties would be pennies, just as is the case with Spotify. Creators would then endlessly complain that their content isn't worth more than it is.

It's fine if we shift to that model. The content creators won't be well compensated in that world, because their individual pieces of content are not in fact particularly valuable. It's a delusion that they are. What they really want is an artificially inflated over-compensation for their share (and if everyone got that, it wouldn't work at all).

And exactly as with Spotify, even with the payouts, the big corporation (OpenAI) will be the valuable thing in the end.
It looks like it was worthwhile to write it based on the feedback and especially as it has caused considerable itch in your rear end.
Exactly, the closest thing with Google is probably Nest. It'd make some sense, but I'm not sure if making sense is considered a plus at Google. :)
Nice idea. Do you have an idea of the before/after SEO effect?
Web standards are probably the last thing Google cares about with Chrome. Much more important is being the default search engine and making sure data collection isn't interrupted by a potential privacy minded browser.
What can I say, all I know about/care about is Chinese economy. I do provide a lot of valuable facts/links to the site
Right...but before they were happy they were complaining about the awful EU (and they still are).

Here's John Gruber (who I like a lot, but you know when his Apple blinders are blinding him).

And now they're complaining about the EU requiring Apple to open up iOS like the Mac, and they are pushing back against that.

It's the regulatory version of how everything sucked until Apple did it (so multi-tasking on phones is awful, until Apple decided that actually now it's ok and now Stage Manager is the best thing since sliced bread).
I beat WSJ on AI <> Legacy by a month

Note, also, that just being on a planetary surface significantly reduces your radiation exposure even if the planet doesn't have magnetic fields. The body of the planet shields you from the sun half the time. A thin atmosphere also has some effect.

In addition, being on a planetary surface greatly reduces the thermal cycling. In free space, the instantaneous thermal gradient on your spacecraft could be several hundred degrees, which the spacecraft either has to mitigate via thermal control or it just has to take; usually it will do some of both, so the electronics do need to survive a not insignificant thermal cycle.

You never get that on Mars. The planet is a huge heat sink.
The perfect anonymized platform- is a ablative platform. Hosted by bot-netted pcs world, managed by dao-contracts, this lucrative platform for illegal trades and services never comes into contact with you once its launched - except to dead-drop money and transaction-requests to you. Now as a standardized easily configurable container + virus. It even can buy its own ready-made zero-days and prolong its life - thanks to chat-gpt programing integration.

Finance your golden years - with a swarm of dark net glider guns! If one of them fails- who cares, they can spawn more of themselves as a service.
Man what a utopian dystopian nightmare..
As the internist told me when, after a long and strange bout with covid at the very beginning of the pandemic (March to July 2020), he diagnosed me with fibromyalgia: "In the end, we may never know if you really have fibromyalgia or not. What matters is will the medication make you feel better."

And boy, did it work. Low dose amitriptyline changed my life.

PS: I was feeling like shit before covid. Covid only made it so much worse that it became impossible to ignore. For me and the multiple doctors I've seen at the time.
They are indeed awesome and I made one with a simple box fan. It works great but it’s really loud. We can’t really have it on when company comes over.

We got one of these instead and have been really happy with it. Pros: super-quiet low-energy computer fans. Uses standard air filters you can buy at Lowe’s. Cons more than a box fan.

The thing is, the political climate is very toxic and the absence of anonymity can have a real impact for things that are basically wrong think.

Say for example I held the opinion that immigration threshold should be lower. No matter how many non-xenophobic justifications I can put on that opinion, my possibly on H1B colleagues can and would look up my opinion on your version of Twitter and it would have a real impact on my work life.

There is a reason why we hold voting in private, it's because when boiled down to its roots, there are principles that guide your opinions they are usually non -reconciliable with someone else's opinion and we preserve harmony by keeping everyone ignorant of their colleagues political opinions. It's not a bad system, but it's one that requires anonymity
This is a common request and we absolutely understand the desire, but I suspect such a thing, if ever, will be a long time off. Given that the product is designed as an entire rack, doing something like this would effectively be a different product for a different vertical, and we have to focus on our current business. Honestly it's kind of frustrating not being able to reciprocate the enthusiasm back in more than just words, but it is what it is.
Believe it or not, some people think "the purpose of a business is to produce useful things". Crazy, right?

There's no problem here at all; except perhaps the wildly absurd fantasy of "perfectly rational (and/or intelligent) markets," which the popularity of e.g. lotteries and casinos immediately disproves. Not much to see here.
Honestly, I hadn't though about that, heh. I'm sure you're right.

I helped my mother with her FB account and someday started to change her birthday every 3 months or so. She started getting "happy birthday!" every three months, usually from the same people.

Yep - I got a Winix 5300 ~3 years ago and it's been great. Nice and quiet, low power, and the squirrel cage blower in it is really good (which is rather important - you need a lot of static pressure to push/pull air through a HEPA filter and box fans just aren't really up for the task at low levels).
I wonder what this would affect culturally. There is a LOT more to this that will happen than just keeping children off of social media.

The USA exports its culture/pop/etc all over the world. I don't follow teenager arts/music/etc sources but a lot of musicians start in middle school and have so many mix tapes online and get known around their cities from using social media. Artists find other artists, learn other styles, etc.

I got into programming through IRC as a kid, which maybe that's like tiktok nowadays, I don't know a good comparison. I learned so much through sites/apps I could "upload content" and "tracks user activity."

So, what happens when every kid-teenager in a nation thats the worlds biggest culture exporter isn't getting their culture out?

I can't believe this got 106 to 13 with the "Regardless of parental approval."

I'm not a cryptographer so I might miss something but I have the impression that

- either there is away to uniquely identify a card and then it becomes another identifier like tracking ids.

In a just world, publishers would be able to opt-out of AI training, and AI companies would have to respect this. Then, if they still want the material, they can approach publishers and buy the content. (Smaller publishers might make a "content pool" so they don't have to negotiate individually)

(This is how current search engines work, btw.. and that's why no one complains about them crawling content)

«The document declares that “in the case of no agreement in the February 1 [summit], other heads of state and government would publicly declare that in the light of the unconstructive behaviour of the Hungarian PM . . . they cannot imagine that” EU funds would be provided to Budapest.
Without that funding, “financial markets and European and international companies might be less interested to invest in Hungary”, the document stated. Such punishment “could quickly trigger a further increase of the cost of funding of the public deficit and a drop in the currency”.»

There's also the concern of collateral damage: falling debris/shrapnel from the interception, if CIWS/CRAM were used you have all those rounds returning to the ground somewhere downrange, UXO if using proximity rounds and they don't self destruct properly, and so on.
There are no GPUs in the rack, so pretty bad, haha.

We certainly understand that there's space in the market for a GPU-focused product, but that's a different one than the one we're starting the company off with. There's additional challenge with how we as a company desire openness, and GPUs are incredibly proprietary. We'll see what the future brings. Luckily for us many people still desire good old classic CPU compute.
I have the same experience. I bought the most expensive iRobot and that thing sucks. You can’t irobotitfy your house enough for it to just run. I bought a Roborock s6 and it’s amazing. Immediately got one for my mom and she’s been raving about it for years already.
I think the "risks" of disturbing a grave site are greater than any "rewards" for doing it.

A home in which someone died can be used again by another person after proper cleaning and what not. Wrecks on the side of the road are usually removed because they are a danger to other motorists.

In the case of Earhart's plane the air frame and navigation systems are 75ish years out of date so it's not like there is a pressing need to solve a potential safety issue. IMO there is nothing of value to be gained besides "solving the mystery" and perhaps gathering a few personal artifacts that could be displayed in a museum or returned to the families.
If you don't want to use the rewards at any supermarket you don't have to, so what's the problem?

If you're not a zealot that preference probably melts as soon as you need it fast, or an exclusive price or item. Just from my observations the best performing supermarkets are in low crime areas with an ethnic minority as a majority. Supermarkets that try these tracking techniques aren't doing well, and I don't blame them for trying to survive and bring fresh food.

Interesting that you bring up embedded/appliance space, as I have noticed there are plenty of FOSS alternatives coming up, key features not being Linux based, and not using GPL derived licenses.

FreeRTOS, Nuttx, Zephyr, mbed, Azure RTOS,...
Primarily for machine vision applications, both for robotic satellite servicing and for e.g. processing earth imagery data onboard to reduce downlink requirements.

Goddard does quite a lot of work on camera-based RPO (rendezvous and proximity operations) which require cameras and lidars to image a client spacecraft and calculate relative pose. This is the single most computationally taxing operation for robotic satellite servicing missions.
I believe there were rumors they are developing a commercial model: e.g. https://www.ft.com/content/01fd640e-0c6b-4542-b82b-20afb203f...
Indeed, although Sony hadn't created the DVD format (Phillips), having it did boost sales of the PS2. With the PS3 Sony was pushing its own format in direct competition to HD-DVD (also Phillips), and I'm sure losing Beta max market to VHS was still in their minds. So they decided to sell PS3 consoles at a much greater loss. It did pay off as well, but the first few years cost Sony a lot.
I believe that FOSS maintainers can gain financial independence and sustain their projects by "selling" supply-chain security assurance to consumers on software contents, packaging, etc.

Disclaimer: I'm building a marketplace that would enable this. Would appreciate feedback/recommendations from my fellow FOSS devs here.
Why isn't it illegal to force someone to log/elog overage hours? Isn't that a fifth amendment violation as you're forcing them to incriminate themselves? Seems elog should be challenged.
You are 100% spot on. Shrink was a huge factor for bonus payout(huge pay lever for mgmt in stores) as if you lived in a area that had high theft you never hit your bonus(shrink is the delta of actual vs. recorded inventory). That and the bonus also factored in sales volume, but shrink was a giant component of it. I remember when a few employees from a rural store came to help out they mentioned they had never not gotten a bonus, whereas my store - a urban store never received a bonus due to excessive shrink. But what I was getting at is there are positions that pay well if you hit your numbers, as a sales associate/dept. manager your pay was capped to really low numbers no matter what happened.
Cities need to rewrite their laws on rooming houses. It's been many decades since they were put in place and their current form is a hindrance rather than a help. There aren't many in between options for people falling on hard times. Roommates, cheap apartment, motel room or you stay at some form of shelter. Proper rooming houses could fill that gap by being less expensive but still affording you your own space and perhaps be easier for some people such as the elderly or disabled if meals are provided.
I totally get that the scale is massive. But I am failing to see what copyright has to do with it.

I understand that AI is capable of copyright infringement, I too can draw a batman symbol off the top of my head, and it seems the fix for this simply output filtering AI content. But look at any AI-copyright complaint and all they focus on is training.

If you can point to a single housing authority who has implemented such a plan satisfactorily, ie, to meaningfully address homelessness within their jurisdiction following the dictates of that bill, please do let us know. But it's otherwise naive to assume that because a law exists that the state has the resources to enforce it. Virtue signalling pursuant to more-or-less intentionally hamstrung initiatives is rampant in California's legislative bodies.

Where in that bill is the mandate to build or acquire housing adequate for demand? What makes you think legislators aren't savvy enough to understand the consequences of legalistic language and the loopholes it can provide?
