> Besides, Namecheap isn't cheap anymore. I've been using it for years but recently moved to Cloudflare as the renewal of my .com domain was 50% more expensive on Namecheap.

Reminder: move my domains from Namecheap to Cloudflare if prices are indeed lower.
I really like this answer, thank you, it gives me something to think about.

Why are we sure that mathematics is not completely a part of this time-space bubble?

Let's say there is an "outside" for the mathematics similar to warp space in wh40k.

A "something" where natural numbers, for example, cannot exist, there will be no space or time in such a case, but it may still exist in some weird sense of undivided consciousness.

In such a case for this outside you need a proper rule based bubble to say that there exists a mathematical possibility for our universe to run in according to rules defined inside that bubble.

That would be "simulation space", if we contrast it with the "outside".

I hope I've got my thought across, because I am pretty rusty in my English writing skills.
I mean, they are not wrong!

I moved out into the country into a more blue collar area. On the coast, I was a nobody. But out here my income alone sets me apart. I inhabit many of the same social spaces in town as the doctors and lawyers. And even they don't get to work from home! Even amongst the elite its a luxury.

It's awesome - I'm not going to go back into an office anytime soon. But I am completely clear-eyed that it is a unique privilege. It's hard to act entitled about it knowing there is absolutely no one in my circle who would give me a shoulder to cry on.
>what is needed is standards and converters.

You mean a standard like activitypub? /s
The truth of the matter is that namecheap does exactly what it says in the name. I rarely find a cheaper domain name elsewhere.

OP gave us good information on what to do if you’re in this situation but to be frank, the entire situation is their fault. If you are using a domain for your email you need to protect it with your life.

No working payment method no auto-renew, that’s on you. Namecheap emails you reminders at 30 days and 15 days ahead of time. “My phone was broken” is a lame excuse: get your ass to the library if you have to.

In my case, I bought my renewals numerous years ahead of time. The price is only going to get higher anyway, might as well buy them now.
23andMe seems like an archaic thing to me, the sort of thing that a science fiction author come up with, a world of high tech obsessed with ancestry.
I don't understand, every definition of AR I can find conforms to what Apple has made. This one from Wikipedia for instance:

"AR can be defined as a system that incorporates three basic features: a combination of real and virtual worlds, real-time interaction, and accurate 3D registration of virtual and real objects"

What is it missing?
Because 405 is already a a crowded route that becomes bogged down during rush hour(s). Your choices are pretty much sound, city, lake, city, or mountains if you are looking for a route through Seattle.
> completely ignoring any business value that he has brought to Tesla

According to the ruling, Musk’s lawyers failed to argue causality during trial. The judge can’t credit Musk for what Musk himself doesn’t argue.
Chips and Cheese has probably the most in depth publicly available dive for the tech reasons why Bulldozer was the way it was:

https://chipsandcheese.com/2023/01/24/bulldozer-amds-crash-m...

---

From a consumer perspective, Bulldozer and revisions as compared to Skylake and revisions were:

+ comparable on highly multi-threaded loads

+ cheaper

- significantly behind on less multi-threaded loads

- had 1 set of FPUs per 2 cores, so workloads with lots of floating point calculations were also weaker

- Most intensive consumer software was single or a very small number of thread focused still (this was also a problem for Intel in trying to get people to buy more expensive i7s/i9s over i5s in those days)
Google is advancing only in the field of showing ads.
I use edge solely to spite Google, I know it's a privacy nightmare but Google asked for it with the web changes they're trying to implement
"More than 300,000 tech jobs, nearly 40% of the U.S. total, have been eliminated in the first half of this year"
It's somewhat field dependent. I would generally expect citations to be used for both purposes. That is, if someone is proposing work substantially similar to existing work, they should be expected to cite that other work and identify differences with the new work since novelty is a key component generally (although not always) required for publication in my area.
Actually a good strategy, as such a device would probably work fine for 5 years then you could 2-4x your storage for another 1/6 iPod, or like most iPod competitors buy a new SD Card.
In a reality where every one was experiencing Virtual Reality, it doesn't seem so far fetched to think about what it would be like for a "headset" to switch off temporarily.

In our case, the "headset" could be something in the brain. There are too many quantum fuckeries going on within neurons (and plants, for that matter) for me to fully rule this out.
IMO being seen as important or competent enough to be certain to get consulted for decisions you care about also plays a role when we are taking about hybrid. I've seen it so often that a conversation arises organically, people overhear it pull up their chairs and half an hour later some problem was solved a certain way. Next day at stand-up or when the PR hits might be the first time the remote employee hears about it who now has to be caught up and sometimes the decision now gets unmade or we are that the alternative is only marginally better and not worse redoing the work for. The little bit of barrier to call someone in is just sometimes too much to interrupt the discussion and even add a very senior person who is remote.

One of many reasons I think hybrid is super hard and likely worse than full remote, full local or remote with set days in the office for everyone (my personal favorite).
I like the fact there's actually commercial transactions here, seems like at least an additional layer of friction to access the data of US citizens. Imagine if the data owners was a government department, there would be seamless, always on availability for the Securitate
Godot 4.3 Game Engine to Feature Native Wayland Support
You're almost there with your intuition.

You just now need to simulate drawing two balls without replacement for each of your 101 urns (from first urn with n=0 to last urn with n=100).

Then you take the conditional probability of seeing the first ball as red, and calculating the number of times you see the next ball as red.

You will find that you are more likely to get red than green.
> Birth control (of all types) is responsible the bulk of the reduction in birth rate.

Birth control is a tool, which requires conscious thought. If you look at the UK:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/281981/live-births-in-th...

You can clearly see two peaks in the last 40 years. Given that the last peak comes after liberalisation of the morning after pill, it breaks the correlation between availability and birth rate.

> end the lives of 73 million unborn per year

I'm assuming your joining 48hr contraceptive with <28 week abortion, otherwise those numbers would mean that (I'm assuming the USA) every woman in the USA alive would be having an abortion at least every two years. Given the number of clinics capable of carrying that out, I find that number difficult to prove.
When I say AR I mean exactly what it's defined as. Put this in the previous comment, it's the Wikipedia definition:

"AR can be defined as a system that incorporates three basic features: a combination of real and virtual worlds, real-time interaction, and accurate 3D registration of virtual and real objects"

There is nowhere in there that says the output has to have pure optical through. Digital composition seems to fit into the definition.
And then there's the US where is no legal requirement to have a permanent address even if, as a practical matter, you sort of need at least a quasi one.
Cryonics Cost-Benefit Analysis
Sure, but it's still limited thanks to the speed of light. Perhaps the universe we're being rendered by is 20 orders of magnitude larger. We'd have no way of knowing. We used to think the world was gratuitously large, then the solar system, then the Milky Way, now the observable universe.

Wanted to move away from Namecheap for quite some time tried some other registrars but not really happy (e.g. Porkbun) (Moved all my DNS to BunnyCDN at least).

I need PDF invoices with VAT/VAT-excemption sent to me for business reasons. Most have only an HTML which often gets wrangled with Print-to-PDF. Some don't have invoices at all :-(

[Edit] Got a comment on Reddit to try inwx.de - moved one domain, they seem to have PDF invoices in mail, 90s UI (which is a good thing ;-) and very technical status update messages (which is also a good thing)
I've defined this elsewhere in the comments. Please provide a common definition that aligns with yours
Simulation hypothesis is the new solipsism. And every time that topic came up in my philosophy readings I was bored to tears. In line with his point 1.
That's a pretty absolute statement
> anyone with a pension should be worried about commerical real estate

I'd find it more likely that anyone with a rationally-managed pension would find they are (and always have been) diversified enough that things which benefit the wider economy (ie WFH) bring them more gains overall than sporadic losses concentrated in specific sectors.
If simulation is modeling for intelligent entities thinking about the simulation, does it also model for them trying to break it and succeeding? Does that simulate the simulation breakage, or break it?
The worst domain name story that happened to me was with my .name domain name, the one I still use for my personal web page.

When I got it, it was only allowed to register subdomains in the form of firstname.lastname.name and I even had to provide my ID card to be able to register the domain name. The deal then was that I could use DNS zone of the subdomain, and in addition got an email redirection from firstname@lastname.name to whatever email address I would choose.

A few years after that, VeriSign suddenly stopped supporting the email redirection feature, with not even a single warning sent to customers like me. From one day to another, I lost the main email address I used to communicate and for all of my online accounts. It was a mess to deal with this.

To this day, I was never able to get hold of my lastname.name, to be able to restore my email address. Even though I'm the only one in the world using a subdomain of it. The only solution that has ever been suggested to me by VeriSign customer support would be to let it expire, and hope that no squatting bots get it before me so once the grace period expires, I can try to register the first-level domain. But that would mean several weeks where my website would be down, and all that with the uncertainty of actually being able to actually get it back.

Don't forget that when you sold it for $500k and bought again, you likely paid $40-50k in transaction costs.
Are we even sure we have just the 1 universe? If the multiverse theory holds weight, and there are multiple "bubbles" of universes everywhere, wouldn't we kinda have to redefine the word "universe" to be the container for all of this? (Assuming it's not fractals all the way up/down)
100% this. For me Windows has become an unfortunate necessity just due to gaming (Please don't try to tell me I can just game on Linux, I want my games to work every time and I don't want to deal with Proton).

Even going so far as installing Windows 10 LTSC on my steam deck and it has been amazing. Better performance, battery life, no annoying features, etc.

I am looking forward to Windows 11 LTSC to come out to get some improvements, but I have not had any issues with gaming on Windows 10 LTSC.
I typically notice the character by character issue with complex prompts centered around programming or logic. It feels kind of like the model is thinking, but my guess is that the prompt is being dispatched to an expert model that is larger and slower.
Cloudflare sells domains at cost so yeah, they’re cheaper. Downside is they don’t have as extensive TLD support as Namecheap, but they’re slowly improving.
No warrants have been issued, no searches performed & to my knowledge no seizures have been performed.

I agree, reading the example code was painful as someone who tries to write all code in a functional style.
> Of the non-US native ones that I interact with, they all absolutely love our job and/or employer. I've asked them about it, and I generally get the sense that I could not survive in the conditions from which they originally came -- both at work and outside of work

My dad’s an H1. (Before they created H1B in 1990.) He grew up in a village in Bangladesh. One out of five kids died by the age of five. He came in as a skilled worker and was an elite within our country—but that meant his parents owned land in a third world village and he went to school (but it had no walls). Both my parents sound like Breitbart when Gen Z or work from home or work life balance comes up. (And they’re Democrats!) My dad’s bullish on China “because they know how to work hard like Americans used to.”

And so do I! I didn’t grow up in a village, but I grew up with my dad, who made clear that there’s 16 work-hours in a day. I’m an absolute company man. So is my brother, who was born here. So is his wife, who was born here but whose family fled communism in China. My kids are growing up hearing my dad talk about taking a boat to school during monsoon season.

At some point the memory will fade. Maybe my grandkids. But in the meantime, how many more H1Bs will they have brought over?
There’s plenty of successful businesses chugging along growing at about the rate of inflation. It’s really hard to grow a business at 10 or 500 times that rate.

Why would it be surprising to value the latter kind of business higher than the former?
This is still common in many places.

I remember reading somewhere that some items in IKEA were essentially home made in places like India or Vietnam. Things like brooms and rugs.

I've seen somebody write this exact bug before! Hah. Like, something to the effect of

but with extra logic to ensure that the Month component wrapped around.
point one is correct, there is theoretically a mechanism to make sure that HK is democratic. The problem is there is democratic, and "democratic". What china is doing is within the terms of the agreement.

However it's a lease, not freehold. a lease reverts to its original owner. There was no practical or legal way to make HK independent.
Are you saying Meta and Google employees are unaware from where the crazy good money for their paychecks comes from?

Maybe not with conviction, but they can't tell the world with a straight face they don't know what their masters are doing with their tech.

The excuse "I'm just moving buffers around as I'm told" doesn't hold up, same how "I'm just a low level foot soldier following orders " didn't hold up at Nuremberg.
It's not a big deal in practice but it would be nice if it wasn't necessary.
Agreed, there's no reason to go through crazy hoops to use an OS made by a vendor that repeatedly and openly works against the user at every step of the way.
I expect this may be used like Agent Orange was, but to destroy the enemy's cheaper 3D printed items.
My military friend uses YYYY/MM/DD. Used to tick me off, but makes sense now.
Can the universe read your mind? If it can, then the universe need not be larger than your own mind plus some comparatively small constant. When you're done reading this sentence and focus back to "Hello" you'll notice that its appearance and location are consistent with what was on your mind, so it's possible that there's some machinery reconstructing the previous state of what you were perceiving so it matches your memory.

If it can't read your mind then the universe external to it must necessarily be much larger, since it can consistently hold much more information than you're able to recall.
I've noticed this too, seems like a change with turbo. Wonder if perhaps they are trying to reduce hallucinations and it results in more abstract responses.
I don't blame you, I have bought things without thinking about edge cases, but I couldn't imagine buying that.

We have a lot of winter storms here, and power and/or cable or fibre can be broken by a tree.

To be unable to change the temp for a couple of days would seem highly inconvenient, so naturally I'm doubly nervous about such things. (I have a generator just in case).

But anything cloud connected, as a necessity? Nope. Never. It just leaves so much variability to your time and money.
To be fair, there are so many publications in fields such as AI that it's really hard to stay on top of things, sometimes even within your own specific subarea. I'm not saying that to give reviewers a total pass, but I think it's reasonable that sometimes a group of reviewers might miss a relevant paper.
what remote jobs....

> "One thing appears to become clear: The chasm between the sectors in the workforce is likely to only get wider."

thats the real subtext here. and i agree.
How You Average Matters
Apparently, a universal turing machine (that can simulate any other TM) with binary alphabet and only 15 states is known: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Turing_machine#Small...
By definition upper quartile means being in the top 25%. I think most people would understand "middle class" to mean exactly what it sounds like it means: the 50% of people clustered around the middle. I know some wealthy people like to imagine they aren't wealthy because there are always other people around even wealthier than they are, but that doesn't mean they're not wealthy compared to the average.
> coming to an agreement and meeting the targets.

That’s the crux of the whole lawsuit.

The judge found that the whole process of coming to an agreement in this case was Musk talking to a mirror.

If there were an actual fair process here and it arrived at $55B then the judge wouldn’t have found as she did.

That’s why the shareholder lawsuit was successful.
To expand on this a little, there are operations that have slightly ambiguous meanings/can end up with different answers depending on your assumptions.

e.g. If today is the 30th of January 2024. What is the date in 1 months time?

Should it be the 29th of February? (as the 30th doesn't exist). The 28th? (the penultimate day of the month, like the 30th of Jan). The 1st of March (a 'standard' month should be considered 30 days, so 30 days from now).
It's a minimum income for jobless and unemployed, but the rest of my point stands.
They could also get behind zoning reform to address housing affordability in major cities. For many people remote work is more about breaking real estate than not coming to an office.
A function that takes all the components at once can resolve this conundrum internally.

A function that takes a simple struct (containing each component) can also handle the conundrum. The function could of course even take a string representation.
What they mean is that if you trusted the kernel you’d run functions in containers instead of micro-VMs, since containers need fewer resources and better start/stop latency.
This is the kind of intractable bureaucratic inertia people were worried about regarding the EU’s USB-C mandate. It remains to be seen how that plays out (partly given that the current state of USB-C implies it could Frankenstein forward for quite some time), but this is definitely a useful cautionary tale. The floppy mandate was probably a really progressive take at the time it was introduced.
This right here is actually the coolest part about developing with LLMs. You just changed the functionality with a sentence rather than a config file, or writing code. It’s great to be able to break out functionalty into things that can be easily handled in English (or your human language of choice) or what should be done in code.
Thanks, I got all but the 70b model to work. It slows to a crawl on the Mac with 36 gb ram.
The bug occurs when using setMonth() to a month value containing fewer days than the current date.

There is no limitation in setMonth() such that you can only set the month to "the month after."

I'm sorry, but I think you misunderstand this bug.
Collecting the passwords is already an egregious overstep, which renders any usage a DAMNING misuse. Microsoft does not have the comfort or benefit of their users in mind, or they wouldn't do this. What a senseless notion. This is further aggression from a company attempting to take choice away from people using their software. It's not even vaguely serious argumentation, it's outright disingenuous and ridiculous.
> A Table is a superset of a Relation.

Subset. You can build relations on top of tables, but not tables on top of relations. SQL falls short of the mathematical model. As it pertains to the topic at hand, whether or not that is significant is not something we have tried very hard to prove in practice.
Applied math does not use much pure math. It hasn't for decades.
That's a phenomena common across mediums. There's a certain point - it doesn't matter if it's visual, sculpture, dance, theatre, literary, or sound - where the work itself seems to become immaterial (and arguably aesthetically horrid) and the focus shifts to the process that preceeds it.

Without an 'in' or background in the often niche cultural (to borrow a word from my art wank school education) milieu it's grown from, that aspect is often opaque. Much like the article states: it's nothing more than a filter and social signalling mechanism.

The same holds true in software and technology. There's an endless continuum libraries, languages, tools and machines out there which have trivial impact on the world but are absolute objects of beauty when you know what's inside.
There are amateur radio satellites. You would need to get your amateur radio license, although you can listen without it. Then you need handheld radio. Two, or more expensive dual band, if want to transmit. It is possible to use the builtin antenna. But lots of people use directional Yagi antennas, you can build cheap one.

Most of satellites you don’t talk to, the satellite repeats signals. People talk to each other, mainly to make contacts, using the satellite.

It is also possible to talk to ISS.
