Spanish tokens are just more tokens to predict. No tagging necessary. If the model can write in Spanish fluently then it saw enough Spanish language tokens to be competent.

"Enough" is a sliding target. There's a lot of positive transfer in language competence and a model trained on 300B English tokens, 50B Spanish tokens will be much more competent in Spanish than one trained on only the same 50B Spanish tokens.

As far as I'm aware, iCloud for Messages is not enabled by default. Security-conscious users should know not to turn it on, though -- if iCloud servicing warrants is part of their threat model.

Further, Apple ended up rolling out Advanced Data Protection for iCloud in 2023, so users who truly don't want Apple holding those keys can effectively take them from Apple.

EDIT: Just confirmed with a test device and test apple id, iCloud for Messages is not enabled on it.
I think part of the problem is also that as criminal trade becomes lucrative & there are more crackdowns in other potential venues, more and more capital is being spent to basically build up these ports in Canada as criminal strongholds.

There is likely significant political shielding for the operation of these criminal groups in many Canadian ports.
As a melting pot, the US takes in a lot of folks from countries that are not doing very well... so in a way, if we keep importing folks from cultures that failed without trying to integrate them to our culture, and instead celebrate their original culture, eventually our amalgam culture will fail just like theirs did.

Its why we have signs that say to "sit, not stand on toilets". You dont think we would need to write it down, but if you import hundreds of thousands of toilet standers, "the norm" goes out the window.
This is a silly argument that could be deployed against ever trying to regulate anything. Of course the government can't mandate perfect security. There's no such thing as perfect security.

The goal is cars that are harder to steal and electronic security measures that follow something resembling best practices.

I fully agree with you regarding situations where people get put into the system. Our justice system in practice, if not philosophy is very much based on punishment rather than rehabilitation. In my personal opinion this is medieval and really needs to change.

However, what GP I suspect is seeing and what many others have seen as well, is a recognition that the system is broken, and thus a reluctance on a part of authorities to move forward with prosecutions for certain people. The goal of not institutionalizing them and setting them up for a difficult future is noble and laudable, however, I worry that this will ultimately be counterproductive. It is going to cause a swing much like what we are seeing, where people conclude that we are not tough enough on crime and thus we need to get more extreme, more punishing, and more authoritarian, which is the exact wrong way in my opinion.

I would much rather we focus on fixing a monstrously broken and outdated system, rather than trying to work around it. That also makes for much more equality and Justice, because then you don't have to hope that you are one of the lucky ones for whom The system looks the other way.

It doesn't have to be a massive revolution either. We can iterate towards it in a progressive manner, starting by removing absurdities like mandatory minimums, victimless crimes or crimes for whom the victim is some nebulous "society", and other things like that.

My first contact with Objective-C and Cocoa was somewhere around 2001 or 2002 when I decided to tinker with the contents of the developer disc included in the OS X retail box, and while I toyed with Interface Builder (which resembled REALBasic, which I’d previously been using) quite a lot I wouldn’t write anything functional for another couple of years.

Newbie material for Obj-C and Cocoa was truly slim pickings at that point, particularly if your local library was too small to carry those books and you couldn’t afford to buy them yourself. All I had to go off of was the odd blog post I’d run across and later on, patient AIM friends (who I am still grateful to) who’d explain things if I asked, so it took a while to become able to write anything significant.
Unless there's some source of truth I don't believe any of this. Smells like fud.

I remember buying his A New Kind of Science book before it was available for free. It was interesting to read, and it was good enough to impress a college kid like me back then. But now, looking back, I wonder what fields of science has it advanced? It's been more than 20 years already, and with a title like that, we'd expect a completely upturned physics, biology, and other disciplines based on it.
Thanks for the insight.
I used to be a mathematician and looked a bit into working as a numerical mathematician on numerical or optimization software. What I noticed is that salaries do tend to be significantly lower than FAANG. Maybe that's because it is a niche and there aren't lots of employers around doing that sort of work.

Indeed; Argon makes the One case which mates an NVMe SSD to the Pi and includes full size HDMI ports, among other nice features... I've used their other cases for years and they offer a lot more value for the money (and keep it plenty cool). It's surfaces are flat enough to mate with many water blocks.

EDAtec has introduced a few fanless enclosures, and other case manufacturers are following suit.

The Pi 5 is only a little more power-hungry than the Pi 4. I don't know if there's an official 'published' TDP, but I've never seen total system draw over 15W (including two NVMe SSDs, one via PCIe, one USB 3), so I can't imagine it's more than 8 or 10W.

It's still fun to water cool [insert device here], it's just completely unnecessary in this case.

I noticed an uptick in scams using iMessage. It's (almost) obvious that you are not talking to a real human. The scheme is pretty simple: lure you to iMessage, so you feel safe, then propose moving to another chat service that is easier to run bots on (telegram, whatsapp, etc) and start a regular programming.
Yeah, most therapists have pissed me off because its infuriating having to teach a so called expert how to understand you at a premium price. I find it ludicrous that they'd be able to tell me anything about myself that I don't know or that my friends couldn't point out to me, because I'm not exactly someone who struggles to analyse myself. I'm not unfamiliar with journalling, I have read tons of stuf about psychology and I'm not afraid to confront these things. I have therefore quit all therapy I've tried after a couple months tops because I can't justify paying to see how it goes. However, I am trying it again now because I am paying nothing now because of insurance. So even if I'm skeptical I lose nothing. So hopefully I'll get to the point of them having enough context to be helpful and can assess it properly this time.

> It's designing the playground so that kids can't get hurt, not teaching them how to play responsibly.

This basis makes enormous assumptions about humans. As we've seen in the past 4 years during the pandemic, adults are already "broken" ethically, and there will be generations of Americans born who think they don't have ANY responsibility, and parents and leaders who refuse to teach them responsibility.

It is a US cultural cancer that I fear cannot be excised. Some people simply refuse to behave with the accountability necessary for a society to exist, that it is their natural born entitlement to ignore they live in a society.
In banking terms, the main assets are the outstanding loans. Fractional reserves (deposits as a percentage of loan balances) are no longer very relevant to modern banking. The limit in the USA was cut to zero in 2020.

> Every nuclear power plant is a fantastic target for terrorists.

It is not. Let's say you are a terrorist, and you and your team have taken hold of a nuclear power plant. Then what? It's a problem for the world, but not different from you taking over a hotel or a city hall. You might threaten or even kill hostages, but there's no way you can create a significant nuclear threat. Let's say you force an operator, at gunpoint, to remove some rods from the reactor, or otherwise you get possession of some nuclear material. So what? How are you going to get away? You will be surrounded by hundreds or thousands of SWAT officers. What is the scenario where it will make a difference if they take over the nuclear power plant vs a different building?
It falls out naturally from game theory and the increasing population and complexity of society. Model these sort of interactions as multi-party sometimes-repeated Prisoner's Dilemmas. Everybody is better off if society functions in a high-trust way: you don't need to spend expensive resources ensuring compliance, and yet nobody takes unfair advantage of other parties. However, if somebody is going to defect and take the pot unfairly anyway, it's better that it's you, because otherwise you don't get to play another round. Under these scenarios it makes sense to cooperate if you have reasonable confidence that nobody else is going to defect.

How do you get reasonable confidence? Well, one way is to simply have a small number of other players and play with them repeatedly. If you have 4-5 competitors, it's a pretty good bet that you will know who all of them are, and you can shut them out of further deals if they screw you over. Everybody knows this condition, and so they cooperate to preserve future payouts rather than defect to take the pot now. But if you have a million competitors, you know somebody is going to defect, just through sheer numbers. And knowing this, your incentive is to have it be you, because the pot will disappear, there will be no future interactions, and there's hence there's a higher payoff to defecting than cooperating.

Same dynamic plays out in markets over and over again. If you have an oligopoly, you can cooperate on things like holding wages down or copying competitors' moves. If you're an unskilled laborer, you know somebody else is going to come in and underbid you, so all you can bargain for is subsistence wages. If you're buying a house and are the only buyer, you can name your price. If there are 4-6 other offers, you can afford to offer a "reasonable" price (similar to comps) and have a reasonable expectation nobody else will offer better. If you've got 13 other offers, you better bring everything you got because somebody else will.

The phenomena is usually self-limiting, because the act of defecting usually destroys the trade pathways that led to the transaction becoming possible in the first place. If the Internet becomes filled with scammers, nobody will do business on the Internet. If all your mail is junk solicitations, you'll throw it all in the trash immediately. If the roads are filled with bandits and criminals, nobody will be able to haul goods to market. If war starts, productive capacity will be destroyed. And then little pockets of high-trust areas arise from people just trying to get things done in the post-collapse landscape, they become more successful than the low-trust wasteland surrounding them, their communications & commerce systems spread, and the cycle repeats.

But this is why we can't have nice things.

I personally can't take any models from google seriously.

I was asking it about the Japanese Heian period and it told me such nonsensical information you would have thought it was a joke or parody.

Some highlights were "Native American women warriors rode across the grassy plains of Japan, carrying Yumi" and "A diverse group of warriors, including a woman of European descent wielding a katana, stand together in camaraderie, showcasing the early integration of various ethnicities in Japanese society"

Stuff like that is so obviously incorrect. How am I supposed to trust it on topics where such ridiculous inaccuracies aren't so obvious to me?

I understand there will always be an amount of incorrect information... but I've never seen something this bad. Llama performed so much better.

My (albeit short and 30+ years ago) experience in the nuclear industry as an apprentice would lead me to believe that it's about quality control and inspection as well as it probably being a long-winded task if the pressure vessel is 8 inches thick. I'd think it would need to be entirely welded at that depth, with each weld pass being X-ray inspected.

Everything I did when briefly working in a reactor (3 months of my 4 years) took a LOT of time because of safety checks and routine.

I admired the Flipper Zero, but it's not something I have skills to exploit. Canada banning them ensured my order. It was in the mail on the day that I saw an article about the USA considering a ban. It's on my desk. I have no use for it. But I damn sure made sure I'd get one before I couldn't.

Most of RR’s breaking changes were years apart, which is way less often than almost all JS libraries.

WebKit, at the time, was not very good at pagination, something ePub requires. iBooks work resulted in a number of "Radars" filed against WebKit with regard to pagination. As a side effect I suspect printing a web page from Safari (who does that?) is markedly better since.
Agree about Haskell... as far as I'm aware there is actually no declarative/easily-readable definition of the Haskell syntax that is also complete, especially when it comes to the indentation rules, and the syntax is basically defined by the very (ironically) imperatively-defined GHC parser[0].

I prefer a syntax like in Pure[1], where the ambiguous, hard to parse indentation-based syntax is replaced by explicit semicolons (Yeah, you can use braces/semicolons in Haskell as well, but most code doesn't).
