Texting from NZ: I don’t know how snappy your experience is but all I can say is that we‘re used to slower websites here in New Zealand. Switching between the tabs and having a <1sec delay is totally acceptable imho. It doesn’t feel „instant“ but instant enough!
I agree that puzzles with progression are the best kind. This puzzle just isn't that kind of puzzle. I didn't want to make another wordle clone, there's a thousand of those and everyone's tired of that style being copied over and over. It isn't for everyone, and that's okay! A lot of people like NYT Connections a lot hate it. Same with Spelling Bee and same with crosswords.

As for the letter lifeline, I am curious how you decided that the third letter's identity is obvious. There are plenty of words that end in ISS, IZE, and ILL, not to mention OSS, OZE, and OLL (e.g. SCROLL, EXTOLL). There is also USS, UZE, and ULL, (e.g. GAUZE, TRUSS, BULL, although they don't fit.)
>All while LEDs never achieved anything close to the early claims of 100k hours and ended up only be comparable to incandescent in lifetime due to skimping on parts cost in the driver boards.

I don't know what bulbs you're using but I don't find this to be the case.

As an alternative example, the effect of subsidies on the solar panel industry has led to rapid improvements in cost and efficiency.
The 9,000 construction jobs will also pay taxes while they're working for 2-3 years. The 1,500 people will buy houses and go to restaurants and dry cleaners and have lawn care and create much other economic activity that will also generate tax revenue.

Simply diving the subsidy by the 1,500 permanent employees doesn't capture the value that's created, along with the strategic value of bringing more chip manufacturing to the US.
From a theoretical perspective, this is absolutely not true. Asynchronous logic can achieve much lower latency guarantees than synchronous logic.

Come to think of it, this is one of the few places where asynchronous logic might be more than academic... Async logic is hard with complex control flows, which deep learning inference does not have.

(From a practical perspective, I know you were comparing to independently-clocked logic, rather than async logic)

Two quibbles: (1) neural nets don’t necessarily operate on language, (2) they only loosely model biological neurons in that they operate in discrete space. All that is to say that any similarities are purely incidental without accounting for these two facts.

This could easily be designed to avoid superfluous the _ dud in the syntax.

It's like having to use an explicit call operator for everything (call + (call * 2 2) (call * 3 3)). You do that for applicators other than call like map or apply. Call is special, so you don't give it a name; it is named by the absence of a name.

You want the actual operators like ^ and H to be implicitly active. When you want ^ and H to just be the literal characters themselves, that's where some quoting syntax should be applied.

> Wasn't Facebook involved in an actual genocide[0]? Maybe its just the society evolving and engagement based algorithms accelerating it?

The algorithms seem to feed people what they like, so people with fringe ideas think they have a lot of support. Matched together with mob mentality, threaten and "downvote" dissenters, which makes the "downvoted" people believe they are fringe, I can easily see how Facebook at least increases the risk of genocide mobs, or any other obscene herd mentality action.

Like, people that are considered maniacs by their peers, can more easily find each other and organize, fundamentally. And the algorithm does it for them.
I actually sent this to my friend as he always thought I'm crazy for doing this. Mine one is a bit simpler though, just a big .txt file with TODO and DONE sections. Some of TODOs just have dates next to them if they're urgent, otherwise it's just it's just a simple list.

That being said, I do use my calendar-equivalent app on my phone for very time-sensitive stuff, just in case.

We would certainly see something that is six times the mass of the earth sharing our orbit.

The wiki estimates the missing planet to be 6.3 times as massive as the Earth, could be up to 2.3 times more or −1.5 times less than this figure.

"Based on earlier considerations, this hypothetical super-Earth-sized planet would have had a predicted mass of five to ten times that of the Earth, and an elongated orbit 400 to 800 times farther from the Sun than the Earth is."

It's actually good that natural gas displaces coal and it's actually good that this natural gas producer captures CO2. Full stop.

To be fair, there are other cancers that are essentially cured. Lung cancer is a particularly nasty one for a number of reasons. It's hard to fight with the laws of physics or biology, so I'm curious who promised you something else.

In general though, I tend to agree that in the US we spend far too much on what essentially boils down to performative end of Life Care. If you ask someone if they would rather spend $200k for 2 months or leave it to their family, I think most people would pick the second option. When someone else is paying, they choose the first option.

Most well-"rewarded" people I've known are not acclaimed for their focus or for their long hours.

Some figures highly esteemed for their talent are noted for extreme focus and diligence, but rarely are these people especially well rewarded with money or comfort. They just get pointed at and receive some "oohs" and "ahhs" while feeling pretty alienated and seeming pretty unbalanced. It's not something most feel themselves aspiring to and it's definitely not what society has set itself up to reward.

Society seems to reward people who get about as much done as they say they can, consistently, on something useful, while not being too unpleasant to be around.

There's plenty of room for neurodivergent people in that society, even without stimuants.
> Do you know if Apple’s MDM is the same for their retail and corporate employees?

Apple Connect, SSO authentication service, is used by all Apple employees, both corporate and retail.

The actual MDM itself (what is allowed, how much is controlled, what can be accessed, etc. etc.) does vary from corporate to retail and between employee roles and departments and from device to device (BYOD v. Apple owned devices).

To facilitate this they use a bit of a patchwork of mainly in-house developed solutions and Jamf MDM services.

A lot of it is pretty well documented in public, The Apple Wiki page[0] on Apple’s internal apps would be a good entry point to go down the rabbit hole, should you be so inclined.

Just keep in mind that a lot of the information on the inner workings of Apple will be perpetually outdated, due to the nature of that information and its reliance on employees leaking information. You’ll find that most publicly available information is about stuff on the retail side, because corporate employees usually are more risk averse when it comes to jeopardizing their job.

Interesting. I've been using Things (similar to Apple Reminders) for 10+ years, which I thought was really minimal, but a .txt is about as barebones as you can get. Makes me want to give it a whirl.

Overcorrecting is a bad thing. It means that you're explicitly and knowingly discriminating by gender, with a flimsy justification about the guilt of our ancestors.
Yes, it does help with working memory. I'm not sure if it adds a slot, or makes it harder for other items to sneak into the limited slots, but it helps.

An annoyance I have is "add" does not return a boolean indicating if the set already contains the entry.

Most runtimes do this to prevent the need for a double lookup cost by doing "has" then "add."

It's a common pattern for when the set is used to either know when to or when not to do expensive work.
No, it's about protecting women's sex-based rights. Having every point in the declaration enacted in law and policy would abolish no-one.

Men could still claim to be women and present themselves in a feminine manner if they so desire. There's nothing to prevent their freedom of belief and freedom of expression. The difference is that this wouldn't entitle them to access female spaces, and indeed would not grant them any special privileges under the law.

This isn't abolition, just like separation of church and state doesn't abolish religious folks, with them being free to practice their beliefs within their own communities of like-minded people. Same principle should apply to 'gender identity' beliefs.

If you disagree, please cite those parts of the declaration that you believe shows otherwise.
What do you think is better about the maybe expression? Just curious, haven't looked into it too deeply and I thought it behaved exactly like when.
Thanks for the quick reply! About hardware support, I was wondering if the LPU has a hardware instruction to compute the attention matrix similar to the MatrixMultiply/Convolve instruction in the TPU ISA. (Maybe a hardware instruction which fuses a softmax on the matmul epilogue?)
FWIW, I happen to be in Australia and it’s quite snappy. No noticeable delay at all. If I were on a satellite connection or something it would be different, but trans-pacific cable seems to be doing just fine. Really it’s the super-long initial latency connections where this remains an issue.
Thanks! I did notice the queue count showing up occasionally but not every time. Maybe someone could repeat the test who has access without the queue so we can get an understanding of the potential latency once scaled and geo-distributed. What I'm really trying to understand is time to first token output actually faster than GPT 3.5 via API or just the rate of token output once it begins.

Weirdly, my father who has smoked (and drank) daily his entire life (now 78), is still alive and kicking. Camel unfiltered and a lot of vodka.

Disentangling the evolutionary drivers of social complexity (2022)
Of course any estimates that scientists make are "made up". But estimating the number of unseen species is a very old problem in statistics with a lot of rigorous research, including an important approach by Alan Turing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unseen_species_problem

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good%E2%80%93Turing_frequency_...

For intuition of how this is possible, imagine you sample k butterflies independently and all of them come from different species. By the birthday paradox, if there were less than k^2/2 different species, you would expect to see at least one pair from the same species, so you can estimate that there are more than k^2/2 different species.

i can't comment about sora specifically, however the architecture can support workloads beyond just LLM inference.

> Elbit Systems has never had to fulfill so many orders for Hermes drones.

Wikipedia says that Hermes drones were initially planned for deployment on 2015, and they were rushed into service a year or so earlier than expected because Israel's armed forces were in desperate need for a long endurance UAV.

This is Israel's first full-scale war since then. Obviously they need long endurance UAVs more than never, and "never" in this context is barely now.

I think you tried to put a spin a personal opinion that ultimately just means "an army needs equipment during a war", as if it was surprising.
Those two aren't even the only options. There's also Lisp-Flavored Erlang (LFE), and maybe other languages targeting the virtual machine BEAM.

https://lfe.io/

It's similar to a multitude of languages targeting the Java Virtual Runtime (JVM) -- functional, imperative, object-oriented, actor-based -- whatever you want, but they all produce interoperable bytecode.

This is how I run all my one-on-ones, just an append only list where every meeting just gets appended on top of another with a date. If there are kaban tasks/external documents/etc that are relevant they still get linked into this page. It very amazing to see what we're working on now, a week ago, a month ago, etc. And as a collaborative free-form document it gives both the manager and their report the ability to craft a story of what's happening (and check in on progress in a way that dashboards fail to represent correctly!).

Isn't it ironic when the exact people who advocate spending more than the rest of the world combined on the military, then turn around and scream about how the debt is "unsustainable"?

Doubly ironic when you consider that they are the exact same people who gleefully shipped all us manufacturing to china, and then started screaming that china is a threat because... they make everything!

The "obvious" solution is that "the government" needs to give them billions of $ to build the same factories that used to exist in the us (before making anything in the us was "unsustainable"). But its DEFINITELY NOT socialism, because rich people will get the money... not those nutty woke "solar" communist...

Colder and hotter are temperatures and not measures of power consumption. A soldering iron can put out 75w at 800F, a cpu can put out 200w and top out at 175F.

In the modern era, AMD chips are actually known for running hotter for quite a number of reasons (much thicker IHS on AM5, stacked v-cache on X3D, boost algorithm deliberately saturating thermals, etc), even though the intel chips pull more power.
I'm personally a big fan of Gleam.

There was a scifi story decades ago about using small but heavy objects (neutronium, IIRC) as an integral part of space ships. The idea was not to use them to generate energy, but to generate a gravitational field to counteract the effects on humans of high acceleration. The object was held in front of the spacecraft, and would be moved closer when high acceleration was needed.

I guess if the ship was just drifting, you'd have the heavy object at a sufficient distance to cause ~1g gravity.

I don't remember the story's title or author(s), but it likely appeared in Analog.
Exactly. There are so many dimensions across which to evaluate it. What I care about the most is 1) ST thread (running my personal workload which is inherently single threaded), and 2) Rust compilation (MT compile/ST link).

For 1) my fastest iron is i9-13700KS and Apple M2. They are very close. My Zen 3 is great and is notably more power efficient, but I'll evaluate 14700KS-Zen 5-M3 when possible.

ADD: because of winter I'm loving my i9-13700KS (not kidding, my office would be freezing without it), but come summer I'll care about efficiency.
