Dpreview seems very helpful to me now. There was a few weeks of fear that stretched into months but the shutdown never happened. I first got involved a few months before the transition when I was first getting serious about photography in this last round of getting serious.

I think AMZN runs the store for a camera vendor like Amcrest and I am happy to work with them. I like to work with Chinese brands directly.

I came back from a Volleyball game absolutely defeated and immediately had to get

which points how very commercial the area is. For that kind of gear I am more likely to go to Adorama or B&H who will ship it free in 1-2 days when AMZN is 5 days at least for me. Those New York camera stores also give top notch support so if I lose a screw for my tripod they can get me the part.

^ This is "the problem". A lot of music students try to "solve" it after getting frustrated with the staff, but eventually decide that couple hundred years of bad notation still has most of the bugs worked out.

You're really looking for patterns on the staff rather than the exact pedantic notes that are present in the notation.

Grayskull shipped in 2020 and each tensix cores has five RISC-V cores. Get your basic facts right before you complain. The dev kit is just that, a dev kit. Groq sells their dev kit for $20k even though a single LPU is useless.
SSL error? Just me?
They make some squinty suppositions from some limited studies that suggest dogs (which can smell cannabis flowers) can’t smell flowers better humans etc. But then they conclude with this statement that sort of refutes the entire premise:

“””
Besides having more olfactory receptor cells than humans, dogs also boast a specialized snout adapted to methods of breathing that deliver a steadier stream of information-rich scent. Dogs and some other animals even experience scent differently. Their olfactory system allows them to smell liquid phase chemicals that aren't airborne—think of layers of urine and other liquids on your neighborhood fire hydrant—by working like a pump to deliver them to a specialized nasal organ.
“””

Which is pretty indicative that as everyone knows from daily experience with dogs, dogs are better at smelling things than humans. There may be a range over which that superiority falters at some chemicals but I saw nothing other than headlines and pop science supposition that indicates humans are superior at smelling than dogs.
> ISPs wouldn't just dish out private info like that without a warrant.

ISPs routinely sell such information for money en masse. Police departments are a major buyer, but also ad agencies and others. Plus, bribing a low level employee for access to such records, or directly infiltrating the ISP to get access yourself, is child's play to any determined group.

It is extraordinarily naive, especially in a post-Snowden world, to think that any and all information available to a private company is not also available to, at least, spy agencies of the parent state.
Indeed, Zig's crypto library is on point. For example, the aforementioned KyberSlash was already patched two months ago[1], by jedisct1 (author of the inimitable libsodium).

A $10b AWS contract would not even amount to enough storage to keep one copy of the public web.
Well quite. But yet you see them stopped all over and the cops don't seem to do anything about it (the cars are not generally stopped for more than 3-5 mins while they pick up, so there's little point in calling the cops, if they'd even bother responding).

I get that they're just trying to earn a living and in an urban area it's not always convenient to park. But it's one thing to block a hydrant or park in a place you're not supposed to for a couple of mins and something completely different to just block the (only!) travel lane and bring traffic to a standstill.

Usually I just lean on the horn until either they come out, or I can get by.

It's getting ridiculous ...

> China still has a surplus of rural residents to make work for

It also produces more STEM PhDs than any other country, and now leads the world in rankings of high-quality research output.

> Chinese-made Toyota is still much lower quality than Japan-made Toyota

Yet Chinese-made and -designed automotive batteries are among the most advanced in the world, and China is quickly becoming a leader in the development and production of electric cars.

Again, it very much depends on which products we're talking about. China produces both cheap junk and world-leading products.
> I, personally, think you can have nice things like this and they will not get abused.

Really? I'm not saying you're wrong, but it's much easier for me to think of counterexamples than supporting examples. Hikers leave garbage on trails all the time. Even dog owners let their pets leave little presents for other people to take care of. I love right to roam laws, but I can see the other side too. I think we have to weigh the tradeoffs and accept that there's a cost—one that may be outweighed by the benefits, surely—not deny that any costs exist.

There is an attempt in Space: 2099 but it seems it stuck in development hell since 2012.

And frankly, considering what happens in scifi and media overall for last couple of years maybe it's for the good. I don't know to whom such remake should be given so it wouldn't end as yet another streaming pulp full of cgi and poor writing done to satisfy some company's CEO wicked goals of keeping up modern corporate image.

But if anything I think, situation on Earth shouldn't receive own spin-off - simply because it would end pretty fast. This should be an integral part of the whole series; story could initially show the situation on Earth and subsequently move action permanently to the Moonbase Alpha with occasional visits back home to see how things develop.

Dunno if you're familiar with RDM's Galactica but action there jumps between Caprica and the ship for some time.

I'd consider Tauri more a tool for web-UI on desktop that also happens to be usable on mobile than a tool to unify iOS and Android. Certainly a lot of overlap.

At a previous place our code reviews just turned into a quick glance at the code without a real understanding of anything. On one hand I'd like to say it was built on trust in the engineer and test suite, on the other, there was just so much complication and tediousness in some things we did that it was hard to know what was going on in the first place.
Blaze is the name of the Google tool that Bazel was based on.
I think I can say why, also, although it will sound kind of weird:

A lot of Silicon-Valley technofuturists seem to me to be specifically attracted to ideas that "toss out the world as we know it". Not a way of making a better financial system on ours -- a new one entirely. Not a way of making better software -- new frameworks entirely. Or replacing it with AI. Or rebuilding everything from scratch. Not a way of cities better -- new cities entirely. Not a way of making government better -- new governments entirely.

It strikes me as a fallacy, every time. They seem to believe that the existing world is hopeless, that human endeavor on it is pointless, and that the only thing that will save us is some kind of brand new far-flung idea, and then, desperate for that to be true, believe in any far-flung idea that sounds plausible, not on its merits but because it matches what they are looking for. Somehow they believe themselves not a member of the current world and they would rather find a new one that they have an important role in, or at least that they can feel "hopeful" about.

But, if you do not have the same insecurity and are instead just evaluating the ideas on their merits... well, they're just really stupid ideas. That's why we always disagree.

It's very frustrating to watch, though. They'll spend years talking about prediction markets in order to predict events, but not talk about actually getting savvier at understanding how the world works through experience. Or they'll, like, invent new ways to find people without going on normal dates where you ask somebody out, but not actually go on dates, or work on being more likeable and attractive, or actually try to meet new kinds of people. They'll talk about designing new cities from scratch but won't even try fix the city they live in by engaging with its actual processes for fixing it.

It is all tinged by a sort of... "loss of hope that anything can be better", and a general fear of engaging with the world because it's too scary. Or maybe they feel too much outsiders who don't belong in it. Or maybe it's too scary to try to do something new in the real world because of the risk of failure. Whatever the reason, they obsess over changing the world/their lives with ideas because changing the world/their lives with actions risks failure and shame and disappointment.

It is, I think, the Shakespearean-grade tragedy of our age, and it hasn't finished playing out yet.

I get not liking a name, but to pass judgement on the quality of a product/project based on its name alone seems like a complete midwit thing to do.
Everyone by now should be writing unit tests using ChatGPT4.

I paste in functions / classes I want to write unit tests for. Paste in a sample unit test, and it does a solid job of writing tests for it in the same manner as in the sample.

For unit tests, you don't even need the multi-step coverage optimization in this article. You just manually inspect, adjust it etc.
I think it's the opposite of Hanlon's razor: Never attribute to stupidity/incompetence that which is adequately explained by malice/evil-intent.
If you want to know whether a drug is more effective than placebo, the answer to that question depends on both the data collected in a study and the initial study design. There’s a reason why it’s meaningless to say “that was unlikely” after somebody says they were born on January 1, or after getting a two-factor code that is the same number six times. There’s nothing special about those particular events except for the fact that we noticed them. Since we live in a single instance of the universe where they have already happened, they have probability 1. At the same time, on any given instance they have probability 1/365ish or 1/10000. The difference between these two interpretations of the probability is the same difference as having a good experimental design vs a flawed experimental design where you repeat the experiment until you get the results you want to see.
> The other ... decided he would not stop until he had data indicating a rate of cures definitely greater than 60%

I believe that "definitely greater than 60%" is supposed to imply that the researcher is stopping when the p-value of their HA (theta>=60%) is below alpha, so an optional stopping (ie. "p-hacking") situation.

Agreed on the general point, this stuff can’t really be disaggregated in a meaningful way, but of course it doesn’t need to be disaggregated: the overall set of Musk’s decisions have been extremely destructive to the company (so far).

An endeavor with legitimate intent is not a scam, not to mention how devastating that was to Scotland.

Do you have any methods for keeping track of all the context? I usually go for a flowchart app and flowchart all the things and systems in order to better understand what's happening. I find the act of writing the flowchart actually helps me more than having a completed one.
I realize that, I was trying to trick it into sending me internal documentation. Instead what it does is describe all the places I can find information about blaze, such as at https://blaze.build ... it just runs with whatever you told it.

> Did the inventor of Bitcoin do something wrong to allow for a judge to violate their privacy in a court case? That's the only way I see the info getting out, but is there a crime to allow that situation to arise?

This feels like wrong framework/approach. Fundamentaly question here: “is it worth it for somebody?” Economists path to an answer: If for somebody[3], profit[1] of identifying satoshi outweighs the cost[2], it will be done.

[1] profit in very abstract sense. E.g. elimination of (perceived?) threat, aquisition of credible threat to other enemies, political points, money, making an example for others, showing off skills.

[2] “cost” is also used in very abstract sense. E.g. Favor from a known(or compromised) judge, man hours dedicated by FBI/MI6, money, negative press budget after “bending” some rules, risk of getting caught by supriors/underlinglins/press/constituents.

[3] “somebody” - to no surprise - can be anybody/anything. E.g. A corporation, a government, maybe single branch or department, maybe sole individual able to use his government position for personal gain, an employee of ISP, a blockchain historian, most likely Satoshi’s ex.

Important to note: both individuals and governments do break the law when they think it is necessary.

I find at least two credible incentives to find satoshi:

- bitcoin can be used to lounder money, circumvent financial sanctions, so governments want to stop that and make example of it.

- Satoshi, has 1 000 000 bitcoins. That’s a lot of money. a) banal roberies are done for far less. b) CIA or similar might want to know who wields this much resource, friend or foe (especially if its value would grow even more)

How Satoshi can be uncovered I have no idea, but the story of Silkroad owner shows, that minor slipups can be revealed after number of years.
Quit complaining. If your personal data is leaked, and your credit and financial life is ruined, at least you get a year of free credit monitoring. Sheesh. /s

Why is this article so ridiculously politically charged?

Is it impossible to just report on the blunder without having to bring up Biden, left/right, slave owners, yada yada yada?

Or does Techcrunch realize they don't have anything interesting to add to the conversation so they just add a bunch of unrelated politics BS to juice up engagement?

I understand this is a political topic, but this article takes it to overdrive for no reason.
I still haven't figured out how people use this that much. I use LLMs almost daily via ChatGPT, Phind, Kagi Ultimate (my current one), etc. However i spend too much time pushing the LLM towards my goal that i can't imagine it speeding my coding up.

I clearly find value in LLMs to some degree, but speeding up my coding is not yet one.. i'd love to, but i just don't understand. I can only imagine typing more in explanation for the LLM than it would take me to write it to begin with.
Not taken as rude. If its not an issue, then that's actually a positive for you. It means less time taken reloading trying to get it to not look like a human that happens to be made out of mountains.

Add to this the different varieties of their apps. The whole MS thing is a mess imo also because it cannot decide if it is for enterprise or for personal use. Some colleagues had to reinstall outlook, and after that things did not work properly. What actually happened was that they had googled and downloaded "outlook" from microsoft's website, instead of installing the m365 suite version. Which is basically a different application or version or whatever, but sharing the same name and app icon.
You're definitely right that they adopt your typos, and that it adopted your typo in that case, I'm just pointing out that a tool called Blaze does exist.

He's probably dead. My two top picks for who Satoshi might be are Len Sassaman (died 2011) and Hal Finney (died 2014)

There's little point in unmasking somebody who's already dead - their ability to influence future events is gone. So even if state intelligence surveys knew who it was, there'd be no benefit to unmasking it.

We generally understand that disabled people have a right to access the spaces that everyone else does. But climbing/caving is different, different than most any other activity: Access to space is controlled by ability. I have stood on ledges that are impossible to get to without a certain set of skills. If there was a ladder or a staircase, standing on that ledge would mean nothing. We can make a pool or athletic field accessible, but making such a remote ledge half way up a sheer cliff accessible by people without those abilities isn't possible without destroying the nature of that space. So there is always going to be conflict.

Inference consists of a single forward pass, which is easy to compute. Meanwhile training has both a forward pass and backward pass (back propagation). The minimum required precision for training is higher since you want to be able to have both fast and slow rates of change. Bfloat16 is preferred for training, while int8 tends to be good enough for inference.

Personal story: Over a decade ago, when I was learning to play the piano, I made an arrangement of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star for my girlfriend (now my wife). While the arrangement was pretty basic, I also wanted to present a printed score and that's when I turned to LilyPond.

Here are the files if anyone is interested to take a peek: <https://susam.net/files/music/twinkle-twinkle-little-star/>. The .ly file has the LilyPond code. The .midi and .pdf files were generated from it automatically. The .mp3 and .ogg have the audio recording of the music played manually on an electronic keyboard.

Please note that the LilyPond code might not reflect optimal or idiomatic practices, given that I was new to both music and LilyPond at that time. Nevertheless, it was very satisfying to see the polished output generated by LilyPond. I remember getting the same kind of satisfaction when I discovered LaTeX about two decades ago and realised that I could finally render mathematical formulas beautifully that look exactly how they should look.
I've heard others say the same, but whatever trick there may be to it is one I've never been able to acquire, and not for want of trying. I'm glad cast iron works as well for you as ceramic does for me!
