It's also one of the scariest things about NNs. Traditionally, if you had a bug that was causing serious performance or quality issues, it was a safe bet that you'd eventually discover it and fix it. It would fail one test or another, crash the program, or otherwise come up short against the expectations you'd have for a working implementation. Now it's almost impossible to know if what you've implemented is really performing at its best.

IMO the ability for a NN to compensate for bugs and unfounded assumptions in the model isn't a Good Thing in the slightest. Building latent-space diagnostics that can determine whether a network is wasting time working around bugs sounds like a worthwhile research topic in itself (and probably already is.)
Why not stylize it as typographic but store it as a "regular" double quote though?
I'm not wrong, you are misunderstanding my point.

> The entire state of the computer can be encoded and manipulated using mathematics. If that weren't possible, the computer wouldn't work.

I don't disagree, but 'can' is not the same as 'is'.

Absolutely everything can be modeled and described mathematically with enough variables, but that isn't always feasible, and describing all modeling all instances of something with practically infinite permutations probably isn't. Besides, if they already had that information they wouldn't really need to simulate anything.

The point is that the simulation gives the parameters for the simulation but then lets it go its own way and doesn't already have all that information of the path it ended up taking.

The path it ends up taking is the result of numerous complex variables, (i.e. all the choices we make in the simulation) which were not and could not be modeled ahead of time (unless you want to argue that infinity would not be so in some kind of higher dimension).

Thus, actually running the simulation, to generate that flesh and meat, is the point of running the simulation, and why I think your original point that anything that can be simulated need not be simulated is wrong.

SEEKING VOLUNTEERS: https://letsblock.it - https://github.com/letsblockit/letsblockit/

A companion project for uBlockOrigin that curates a corpus of content blocking templates, and provides the server to create you personal list of content blocking rules. The official instance just hit 800 active lists and a lot of template suggestions have been filed recently.

The easiest way to contribute is to create new templates, fix or extend existing ones. You need to learn the uBlockOrigin syntax and how to properly target the right elements, happy to mentor! See recent PRs for examples and https://github.com/letsblockit/letsblockit/blob/main/data/fi... for documentation.

The server itself is built with Go and HTMX, it's pretty low-maintenance, but there's interesting improvements if you want to toy with it (need to open issues for these).
The article explains why all the rest is, maybe not needed, but good to have.
What if you just are tired of this empty propaganda? The people peddling this message have been systematically WRONG about everything for the past generation.

Who has China invaded? Beyond the occasional regional border disputes, like in Vietnam, I'm hard-pressed to find any.
That's still very good money for German wages, also keep in mind that senior managers at those big wealthy German companies don't do shit all day while having a iron clad job security. Just send emails, drink coffee, have chats with other managers, then drive home, while ICs at scale-ups have a lot more work, stress and responsibility on their shoulders of keeping the ship afloat and the services running.
Was kind of curious so went to Lutino.io (because there's no link to the project) and it appears to be a proprietary subscription tracking service with no obvious way to "volunteer".

Yeah almost all countries would have issues if the state just closed. This is about green energy subsidies.
This is feel good legislation that will be hard to implement. If LA wanted to actually solve this they should start an LA public service internet. I think it’s ok to say it’s a right to have internet access but if you are, you need to back it up and not put it on the burden of a commercial entity to follow that plan.
I think ipod/iphone isn't the best analogy, because the iphone is sort of just an ipod with more features. What the iPhone _really_ disrupted was the Macbook and personal computers in general, not to mention other mobile phones.
How do you handle non-paired ones then?
OR.

Are they cleaning up their environment. Like actually doing what we only 'talk' about.

Remember a few years ago when Beijing was all smog and smoke. Universally condemned for such bad air quality?

Now they do something about it, to be better, and the 'right' is "it's just government subsidies, wish we could still pollute our environment like the good old days".

Launch HNs for YC startups get placed on HN's front page automatically - this is one of the things that HN gives back to YC in exchange for funding it. It's in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.

Since the purpose of voting rings is to try to get on the front page, that construct doesn't really apply here, unless you want to call "automatic placement" a "ring".
I agree with this wholeheartedly. If writing a detailed, multiparagraph commit message, assume the target audience is future you.

Most likely, a time-pressed dev on the far side of the world will think your commit broke something and send a 2:00 AM message of "URGENT: code broke CRITICAL customer request" with a link to the commit, whatever JIRA issue they are working on, and zero additional context. They will NOT bother to read the message (likely explaining how they got into their pickle in the first place) but will see your email, send a message, and do whatever it is they do while waiting for someone else to figure out the problem. You, being that someone else, will now have an excellent starting point on the top priority for the day. Much better than if your message had just been "fixed it".
This is a kludge because we don't have the actual solution to keeping prices low, which is market competition. No one wants the government to tell big companies what to do, but when you let a monopolist take over you're stuck with either consumers getting screwed or burdensome regulation, which are both bad.

Same deal with net neutrality. In a healthy market we'd have it naturally, without laws prescribing it. We don't have a healthy market, so here we are. And there's no greater gift to the monopolists than the position you're taking.

> I like a lot of what they're saying, but I actually find all of their redesigns to look worse than the original. I don't prefer the typeface they've selected, and their boxy buttons look two decades old.

The actual design was not the point of this piece, if anything, it’s an invitation to re-explore the design of the button. By being hung up on the implementation details, you have missed the forest for the trees.

Back in the early 2010s when I was doing freelance web development, I learned very quickly to stop gathering feedback from the client on specific steps because, for example, if I showed them a greyscale wireframe for page to solicit feedback on the layout, they would say, “the text organization looks good, but I wanted it to be these different colors, also I don’t like the Latin text in there, where is the content that we agreed would be in there? Also the logo is missing, also none of the links in the footer work, I don’t like the font, etc etc.” I thought at this point (and especially on this forum) we were past this sort of ill-informed feedback.
Is it possibly be that delays are a consequence of having to do extra work rather than being up to no good?

Yes, you have a point there, but I think my gripe is that the numbers are so tiny as to be potential rounding errors on an otherwise pretty self-evident hypothesis: that solar subsidies (like direct pay) increase solar installations. We've known that for decades already.

If there were something special about HoW that make them disproportionately susceptible to subsidy-driven PV, that would be an interesting finding... but I don't think you can make that determination on 1.9% of 0.6%.

Still, you have a point. If nobody studied this, we wouldn't know if that was 1.9% of 0.6% or 90% of 50%. And maybe the numbers will change in the coming years, and this gives us a great baseline starting point.
What's wrong with the native keybindingings? The simplicity to bind any command, even external programs or scripts is one of the best features of vim. For example I have leader+m to compile based on my current filetype, leader+d opens the binary in :termdebug (gdb) and many, many more. I keep adding to my config anytime I get sick of a repetitive action.

You don't need anything fancy to do what you're asking, except for holding a key, which AFAIK isn't possible. Some bind j+k to esc in insert mode. I don't like messing with the characters in insert mode because it creates latency and fucks with my typing but I swap esc and caps since esc is my most used key, and caps my least.
Yeah, size classification is always tricky since the reference point always moves.

If you deal more with large datasets, the spectrum would ideally move to the right for you, as you have described, since you probably need a trillion on that scale.
Not looking to apply, but having tried this out some years ago, I really love the approach. Using indie games to get kids to handle their emotions is great.
No one tests their apps on declared unsupported hardware. How would you identify potential unsupported-but-might-work hardware? It's not worth the cost.

Still, it sounds like someone simply screwed up a compiler setting.
To be fair, in most cases it's just a matter of costs and time. Following regulations can be cumbersome, especially if it's for a foreign market where you have little to no personal experience. So you need to outsource to a team who has the experience and knowledge. And with a fast moving target, like AI, this is not really an option until the project is stable enough.
UFS without soft updates is easily susceptible to corruption.

The "soft updates" option must be chosen when the disk is formatted for good reliability.

As I have said, 20 years ago "soft updates" in UFS worked better than journaling in the other contemporaneous file systems.

Nowadays it is likely that this is no longer true. I am still using FreeBSD in servers, but unlike 20 years ago I can afford UPSes so I no longer see often crashes due to power outages, even if I had one incident some time ago with a battery that had not been replaced yet after the UPS had warned that this is necessary, and when a power outage happened, the UPS worked for less than a minute and the power was cut before system shutdown. Even in this case there was no file system corruption on UFS.

Even with this good recent experience, today I would no longer trust UFS like 20 years ago, because it is said the current FreeBSD maintainers no longer understand the convoluted code that implements "soft updates" in UFS, and in any case most of their file system maintenance and development work is directed at ZFS now.

Shakker.ai
You may be misunderstanding the concern expressed on that page. A button communicates action when activated; a link communicates navigation (not necessarily "load new page", perhaps just "show new information on current screen"). Using a button for navigation or a link styled like a button for action has potential to thwart these expectations in various ways.

I'll admit, sometimes this makes some sense; you may be building an interaction that doesn't map cleanly onto either "trigger action" or "show information", and you wish to pick and choose the semantics that best fit your needs.

...But then there's the situation you allude to, where you have a button (action) and a link (navigation) and are just trying to make them look the same for consistency. Even if you pull it off visually, the chance that an end-user's client software will misinterpret what you're doing in some way and cause confusion is high.

The issue is that you're performing a test which involves a whole bunch of interconnected layers and then assigning one part of that interconnected system as where the benefits lie.

Why not the TLS implementation? The video drivers and their kernel interfaces? The OS' process scheduling? A dozen other things that might be responsible for the perceived performance difference to one degree or another?

> The thing I hate the most in the UI nowadays is to be randomly touching/clicking around to find what is touchable/clickable.

Yeah, it reminds me of the old graphic text adventure games (e.g. Zak McKracken) where you had to hover the mouse over the entire screen to find the thing you are supposed to click on. If you're luck, the cursor might change shape. I generally prefer UIs to not be puzzles.
Good or interesting mathematics imho is about finding the exceptions. Like, why something works for a particular case when otherwise it does not, or the converse. An example is why a general quintic cannot be solved with radicals, or finding non-trivial quintics that can be solved with radicals.
I think commit messages are mostly valuable for a future code reader asking "why is this bit like this?" and then looking at blame logs for the answer. As you point out, bigger picture stuff ought to be elsewhere (documentation, tracking bug).

Keeping docs in version control and including doc changes with the code changes is a nice way to address your concern.

> I think the film is a masterpiece and the book's original ending is unrealistic nonsense.

I think the film is very good, but the book's original ending is is essential to the whole point of the story. The film is inferior to the book because it's missing.

But I'm not sure what you mean by "unrealistic". On one level, neither the book nor movie is very realistic anyway. On a deeper level, they both speak real truths.
