I think it also behooves these smart people just to realize that they're not "one company for the long haul" people.

I'm one of the people who likes working in startups. My peers who like working in established companies are appalled by my resume, with 1-3 years each in a handful of different places, often separated by 6-12 months of unemployment.

But I've never had a hiring manager at the kind of startup I'm applying at raise an eyebrow over it.

I think there's a tangential tricky element here too, that most financial advice is written for the masses of people who do have predictable career paths and long-term plans. There's nothing wrong with that. Those people need to have plans too.

But there's not much written for the people who know they're going to be in and out of work, how to maximize each while preparing for the other, stuff like that, and I wish there were. I could use decent advice, but "be a different kind of person, because the kind of person you are isn't like me" doesn't really help. I'm financially way ahead of my friends in traditional roles, because risk is often rewarded and ownership matters, but I've yet to find an advisor who has the first idea what to do with me.
What about Japan? Aren't they doing ok? Sure there's issues with not enough people to look after the old folks but I haven't heard any rhetoric like we do in the Anglosphere.
Demographic Apocalypse seems largely a scare tactic by neoliberal/neocons to distract from the real reason: Immigration is to suppress wage demands.
Nah, it's not too loud. I keep wondering what foreigners make of it the first time they're present on a first-wednesday-of-a-month, though.

And yeah, the usefulness is dubious.
Let's wait for Tucker's Putin interview to get the real story right ?
On the other hand, real data is the most important thing to defend and regardless of what it is or inferences drawn, the most likely to be attacked.
That looks like 3.5, which gets lucky sometimes because it has memorized the Internet.

Ironically there seems to be an over-representation of these life coaches, yoga instructors, motivational speakers and crypto types in US ex-pat communities in Central America. It'd be interesting to know what attracts these people to move there.
Such aggressively zero sum thinking.

Maybe you have a fine native calendar app available to you on your platform that you trust. Great, good for you. Maybe you have a messenger app on your native platform that you trust. Good for you, we are happy for you!

To use that to say the web shouldn't have a capability is incredibly cruel. Other users have corporate controlled systems and school laptops and terminals at public library. These users have next to no power, but the web is a common baseline for humanity that does serve & help everyone. It should have this capability, be possible to do this thing.

If this feature annoys you, don't use it. Turn it off. This is the web: get an extension that blocks Web Push requests preemptively. You as a web user have a user agent at your back that is flexible & configurable in how you browse the web. Just telling people they can't have a feature because In Your High Opinion It's Bad takes so much. Other people should have the liberty too. The web should have features, not cater to those who insist on its withdrawal from spaces they carve out.
Couple of things.

1. The author said IT departments. This ostensibly includes everything from software development to systems admininstration, vendor management, and end-user support. Plenty of drudge work to be found there.

2. If your codebase requires someone to be on the edge of the bell curve of human intelligence to work on it is almost certain that mistakes have been made by very smart people.

3. The author is absolutely implying that the worst people are left, which is entirely my point. They have most likely never encountered the idea that managing folks to their strengths is more effective than trying to cram the room full of edge-of-the-bell-curve unicorns.
Pascal’s wager seems so… idk, unenlightened? If you start from a status quo of feeling comfortable with your obliteration, it sounds kind of ridiculous to ask god to grant you an eternal life of heaven. Have we not concluded that eternal life begets meaninglessness? Are we really imagining ourselves to be eternally pleasure seeking or revelries entities? Like what does that actually mean?

It seems, frankly, more in line with in physical universe western (and other) aesthetics to politely decline going to heaven and instead act according to your personal integrity and humble satisfaction.
Purchased tracks are either 256 kbps AAC or ALAC (Apple Lossless). It's worth noting that Apple's AAC encoder beats everything else (I've done lots of testing), even though at 256 kbps this isn't a huge consideration.

Their Apple Digital Masters program (formerly Mastered for iTunes or "MFiT") offers guidance and tools for labels, which is why Apple's iTunes catalog offers such consistently high quality.

FTA:

"The 7 Hybrid differs from those models in its attempt to be three motorcycles in one. Think of it as a zero-emissions bike for heavily restricted city centers, a fuel-sipping urban cruiser, and a fully capable canyon carver able to take on 200-plus mile days, suggests Kawasaki."

It's less about fuel economy and more about emissions. Also FTA:

"the Kawasaki Ninja 7 Hybrid, the first mass-production strong hybrid motorcycle—Kawasaki’s two-wheeled solution for the modern world, where Zero- and Low-Emissions Zones are very much a reality. Even if they haven’t made their way to the United States, yet."
Russia considers Donwtsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhia the same country as Russia - why wouldn't they, everyone thought they were when I was in high school. Just like the US considered there was a South Virtnam separate from Vietnam.

Operation Babylift took children with parents as well as orphans. So many of the children the US refused to return to their parents.
Congratulations, the Russian propaganda reached its end goal with you:

> Personally, I don't use tech to interact with people.

I am a person. You have interacted with me using tech.

How are you defining "tech" exactly? I use messaging apps all the time to organise things with friends or talk to distant family members. There's no better way to do it, I can't meet everyone in person and if plans change, it's better to know sooner.
This should cover it pretty well:

It really isn't. When there's a "tie", one human waves the other to go.
As I understand it, the KGB inherited their dirty tricks bag from the Cheka, whose members had learned them the hard way from being on the receiving end, taught by the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okhrana .
I will keep this script around. Half of the article became "bullshit" and that shows to which kind of public is this information directed to.
A few weeks ago, I watched a YouTube video [1] that helped me reduce my phone usage from 2-3 hours a day to less than 30 minutes. It made a significant difference in my life. Sharing the link here in case anyone needs a helpful guide.

'Launch signal' isn't the issue, you'd need to work past the PAL used for the weapon to be any significant threat, and soviet PALs were relatively complex based on multiple path lengths and timing deviations.

You could just rip the PAL out and build a new detonation timing system, but then you'd be re-doing a large part of the trial-and-error phase of the manhatten project.

It's not something that could happen in hours or weeks. Realistically more like months or years.
3. Account that has already been shadowbanned, for communicating with the fine folks who enabled showdead.
Especially for cults. None of them walk up to you and say "we're a cult". They start out with positive interactions. Usually they find someone who needs help and seem to be offering something positive. It's not until later that they slowly start creeping in the more dangerous aspects like control and isolation.

It's a lot like an abusive romantic relationship. Most people aren't getting punched on the first date, instead they're interacting with someone who seems wonderful.
Being in love with the tech doesn't make someone a good CEO. Notably, sometimes standing too close to a problem prevents one from seeing solutions. Let's maybe start with actual admonisions against her (and her replacement's) relevant qualifications, achievements, or character (or lack thereof), instead of grabbing pitchforks and venting about how she's the wrong person to get a greenfield browser off the ground; simply put, that's not where Firefox or Mozilla is at right now.
Criminals don't make sense to you because you're trying to explain their behavior with your own thought process. You're likely much smarter than they are, with a better understanding of risk vs reward and lower impulsivity.
Also you can't explain criminal behavior with purely financial motivations. Car thieves are not making $33k per car. A lot of them don't even sell them, just steal what's inside and use them for a joy ride (ask me how I know). Lots of petty criminals and drug dealers are not making very much money, especially for the level of risk. But compared to a traditional job it's much less restrictive, fun and exciting, lets you hang out with your friends most of the time, and has a lot more social clout with their peers than traditional employment.
I just tried some logic puzzles on the Advanced model, and was not impressed. It feels much worse than paid ChatGPT.
Elon regretted signing the deal very soon after and spent many months trash talking to try to provoke Twitter's management and board into telling him to go away. Then, on the eve of litigation, he rage quit and closed the deal. That doesn't leave a lot of room for planning. Malice? Stupidity? It's not an exclusive choice.
It instantly changed how I work. Seems like a lasting change.

I sit on my couch with a MacBook Air (very couch friendly) developing with many screens of relevant info arranged around me.

A mundane but profound
benefit of “spatial computing” is no longer having visual information limited to the “keyholes” of hardware screens.

Apple seems to get that the Vision Pro wants to be a Mac replacement, not an iPad replacement.

Counterintuitively, the stereo 3D is the secondary benefit. Albeit a natural and significant one.

Everything in Vision works with both see-pinch and track/mouse click.

Hoping see-pinch comes to Mac screen in Vision, or simply Mac becomes redundant.
> I (..) removed GitLab's production database by accident.

Oh, I remember this. I vaguely remember there was also a live stream video of the recovery from GitLab's offices. That must not have been even more stressful at all!
I really don't understand how this is legal, considering that the digital copies are promised on the outside of the DVD/Bluray box that is purchased. It's crazy that such terms are enforceable. Or maybe they aren't, but no one has bothered to put them to the test. You'll own nothing and be happy, I suppose.
Not anymore, bard is also Gemini now
Is the new CEO gonna continue to get millions of dollars while Firefox slips deeper and deeper into irrelevance?
I’ve been pretty excited to finally try Gemini advanced. So far pretty disappointed.

Here’s my go-to test question - which even chat gpt 3.5 can get.

Question:

I walk up to a glass door. It has the word push on it in mirror writing. Should I push or pull the door, and why

Gemini advanced:

You should push the door. Here's why:
* Mirror Writing: The word "PUSH" is written in mirror writing, meaning it would appear correctly if you viewed it in a mirror. This suggests that the correct action from your side is the opposite of what the word states.
* Door Mechanics: Most doors are designed to be pushed open from the side with the hinges. If there are no handles to indicate otherwise, it's generally safer to assume a standard push-open mechanism.
Let me know if you'd like another brain teaser!

It isn’t even consistent with itself - it gets that you should do the opposite, but still says to push the door. This ‘talking to a dumb person’ feeling is the worst.

ChatGPT 3.5

You should pull the door. The fact that the word "push" is written in mirror writing indicates that it's intended for people on the other side of the door to read, not for you. Typically, when there's a sign indicating to push or pull, it's meant for the person approaching the door, not someone already on the other side.
You don't have to delegate anything to LLMs if you don't want to. There is no reason to feel compelled to incorporate them into your life or workflow.
Interesting i didnt know that thanks.
I used to ride a SV650 before we had kids. Honestly, I can't think of a fuel efficiency figure which would make me think "I have to have that!" You just don't spend that much on fuel on a motorbike, even commuting about 20 miles each way it was still less than a single day on the train per week, about £30 in fuel. Even halving that spend is a negligible difference practically.

If I wanted to have cheap motoring I'd probably go for the Toyota Yaris hybrid which gets those fuel efficiency figures and is a lot more fun to be in when it's dark and wet.
Odd, I’m not a huge fan of many things Apple is doing these days, but I’ve consistently found their homegrown content to be very high quality.
> People are why we can't have nice things, apparently.

Always has been. With that said, this is incredibly impressive from a logistics perspective. Hire these folks for demolition and salvage work.
I find that all of the positive effects he's talking about of trying to cut down consciously eventually fade away after a while. I dislike how the article acts like he's become enlightened from one detox. I've been in this mode many times. This has been harder than dealing with a nicotine addiction for me.
This was amazing. Thanks for that.
On the other hand, if someone made a jump to a new company in 2022, they were more likely to be on the layoff chopping block in 2023 than employees with a little more tenure. At least, I have seen in my own organization that the recently hired are at much higher risk of being laid off even if they’ve shown promise.
I tried this

> write a powershell script to crawl an entire website and download all images

It still refuses to generate code for that.
Please do some research first next time.

From the Beria wikipedia article:
In 1993, construction workers installing streetlights unearthed human bones near Beria's Moscow villa (now the Tunisian embassy). Skulls, pelvises and leg bones were found.[90] In 1998, the skeletal remains of five young women were discovered during work carried out on the water pipes in the garden of the same villa.[91] In 2011, building workers digging a ditch in Moscow city centre unearthed a common grave near the same residence containing a pile of human bones, including two children's skulls covered with lime or chlorine. The lack of articles of clothing and the condition of the remains indicate that these bodies were buried naked.
gemini is a bad name in korea...

"잼민이" (Gem-min-ee) is a derogative term for rude elementary kids online

"smart gemini" sounds really weird
I didn't "train for the test." There were no SAT books or training courses or anything like that.

Sure, taking it a few times meant I knew what it felt like to take it. I knew what the books were like and how the proctors would act. I knew what could go wrong and what kinds of distractions I should be ready for.

That's why I think I only actually got better at the same rate that I would have if I weren't taking the tests.
that's why https://dercuano.github.io/notes/2017-sap-allocation.html described the event as follows

> A human they call Donald Trump was what they call President of USA for basically all of “2017”, and that sucked. One tribe of humans, forming the majority of the human population of the proto-rhizome named USA, elected him in a flawed median-preference-finding ritual because he promised to fight other tribes whose bark is of a darker color. Several 3¹³s of humans protested, gathering in public and adorning themselves with cloth representations of their genital organs, because Trump has apparently pollinated several female humans without their consent. Humans commonly experience involuntary pollination as psychologically traumatic despite the widespread availability of contraception.

though apparently the plant who wrote that didn't understand quite how flawed the ritual was
I have more respect for people that use hand-made HTML over some JS library that makes unreadable code
Thanks! The more we grow the more we find ourselves diversifying away from the OpenAI api. Our core AI node used to be called 'ask ChatGPT' because it felt familiar to users but we changed it to 'ask AI' because users wanted google gemini and perplexity support.

We really shouldn't be even mentioning the OpenAI calls in pricing since we equate Gemini-pro calls and perplexity-70b to GPT-3.5. We need to come up with new categories for the AI calls included in pricing that make more sense.

We also notice that the bigger our users get, the more they want to consider open source models and fine tuning. Open AI will be removed from the pricing description in the next few weeks once we come up with a better way of equating AI costs between models with a credit based system.
The page you link to straight-up has a guide for evaluating if any given language would be suitable to implement a kernel in. How on earth is that unnecessarily married to the idea of "low level == C"?
I tried jit as well but looks like recursive functions cannot be jitted yet :(
>However, the demand for food and energy by households cannot deliberately be postponed and is therefore relatively stable. And at least the drop in food prices plus the seasonal effects seem to do a lot here.

That's why economists look at core inflation minus food+energy. PRC core inflation rose by 0.4% in Jan aka ~4% annual inflation in goods / services. About same as US annualized core inflation. Dropping pork prices has been consistently dragging down CPI, and will likely fall more - it's reverting to pre African Swine Flu levels and my understanding is huge overproduction in recovery effort = lots of bacon entering market kicking price down. Other things to note, since producer price falling and core inflation rising businesses not making basic inputs are more profitable with lower input costs and higher prices. TLDR is most of PRC sectors doing fine. Except stock market, but that was never well developed and needs kick in ass. And RE, which was over due for correction. But still huge drag. Good for minority trying to buy housing. Bad for majority house owners with their life savings wrapped up. Which is why I think PRC doesn't want too much inflation that further inflates away wealth locked in housing.
The real problem in Europe is that we allow radical mosques funded by shady Middle-Eastern actors to even operate. Or maybe it is the fact we have too many marginalized people who are easily brainwashed to support such ideologies.

Either way, surveillance is just a symptom of deeper political failures.
I've always used Firefox. I've long converted my friends and loved ones into Firefox users, going in depth about the pros of using a browser that does not exist solely to profit off their data and impose their rules onto a free internet (somewhat) that I grew up on and live off, to this day.

Dev teams find it easier to slap "Use Chrome for best experience" or the more annoying "Your browser is not supported" on web applications instead of maintaining compatibility for another browser, but can you blame them?

I've thought long and hard about the "free" internet. The free internet, the trove of knowledge, the bleeding edge of what technology has to offer, one of the more important places where humanity advances. Also perhaps regresses in the veil of psuedo anonymity.

Pixels, cookies, beacons, benign sounding words all used to profile and map everything about you on this internet. To sell you more ads, to keep the % increase over past quarter at acceptable rates.

This rant is exaggerated, inaccurate and perhaps emotional coming from me. The internet is something I hold dear, my privacy is something I hold dear. From time to time I see myself type "dat" and FF autocompletes it to "data.firefox.com", say a little "oh well" to myself and click the return key. I click on the yellow button at the bottom of the page and stare at the MAU chart for a good few seconds before Ctrl+W and going back to whatever I was doing. Small up spikes made me happy, but the downward trend does not make me sad, since I have accepted it. Maybe somebody crazy and determined will fork the project, if it comes to that, but maintaining a browser is a tall ordeal and maintaining is not enough.

Baker at some point after laying off hundreds of Mozilla employees said something along the lines of "I could be making more elsewhere, so this little pay increase to myself is no biggie" (not her words at all, but this is what she meant).

I have waited so long for this news. A long, long, time. Maybe now, FF can ship security patches as fast as Chrome does, maybe now the small upward spikes in the MAU chart won't be so small anymore, maybe now Mozilla will stop making Pocket a thing, maybe now the days of free internet are extended a little more.
A religion is an ideology, not a race, and should be a fair subject for criticism or dislike
my point is that exporting value added lithium have nothing to do about what is or isn't best. also my comment had a typo. wide not hide

it's as disconnected as building roads and selling aluminum if you have bauxite ore.
> Putin himself seems to deplore Stalin

Putin doesn't have any fixed or strong beliefs. One moment he's a staunch "strong-hand" Stalinist, and another moment he's a pro-business economic liberal. And that's why Russia has no ideology, it's not a Nazi Germany or a Stalin's USSR.

His only goal is to preserve his personal power.
I'm a problem solver myself, but I, as well, am the worst person to market myself, let alone a product of mine or my skills.

My suggestion would be, find the best marketing person you can find and let it sell things for you.

If things go well, you can make him / her your "CFO".
Yeah, sorry, no. The Guardian is writing in a way obviously intended to make careless readers (which means most readers) think that the whole video is known to be AI-generated. No, they don't actually say that; they invite the reader to believe it while carefully not saying it.

No professional writer would do that by accident. The writing is very obviously slanted in a way meant to mislead the audience. I don't know what their motives for misleading people may be. I suspect it's mostly to sex up the story by exaggerating ther sensational "AI" angle more, because, hey, who cares if you escalate a conflict and get more people killed when there are clicks and views and ad impressions to be had.

But the fact that they are intentionally misleading people is evident in their own words.

As for the actual video, it's trivial to find stuff that will generate the talking head for you, and they probably did that so they wouldn't have to have any of their own people on camera. That's zero evidence in either direction about the veracity of the important parts, even though the Guardian is trying to use it to cast doubt on those parts.

The "unverified images" themselves may or may not be real, but almost certainly are NOT AI-generated. As you yourself noticed, it's still easier, even today to just use old stuff or stuff from other wars.

And honestly there's going to be more than enough real evil done in any war that you could make a video like that if you had some kind of omniscient camera.
