I don't think that's the case. Maneuverability matters in close quarters, and a spear doesn't work if the adversary is too close. If the adversary is far enough for a rifle-length spear to work, shooting them with the rifle also works. Closer than that and you're better off with the knife or your bare hands.

(Also, you might be better off using the rifle as a club.)
If you look right now at the homeserver market, it's getting larger and larger. With APUs, it could be a great bargain for a self-hosted PC console with decent steam deck like performance. Linux is getting spoiled with steam compatibility. I have one of those iGPUs, with around 15W idle, and their performance is surprisingly good for an old APU, on low settings for AAA games. You can check YouTube for some comparison.
Not sure how that's related to the quality of recommendations the algorithm gives.
Someone else already commented, but as a user of a Framework 13 with the 7840/780m, the iGPU is definitely not overpowered.

The issue is that iGPU performance has been hardly changing for probably close to a decade, meanwhile dGPU performance has significantly risen (despite using older process/nodes at some times). What we’re seeing now is a correction. The meteor lake iGPUs apparently trade blows/are very similar to the 780m.

More specific to the 780m, its performance is apparently close to a gtx1060… a midrange gpu from 2016, about 7 years ago. It’s very nice to run a decade old game like gta5 at high, but modern titles like genshin can’t even hit 30fps on medium at 1x scaling. Also, not to mention that DDR is much slower than GDDR.

So: is the gpu better than previous gens? Definitely. Is it overpowered? No, previous gens have been underpowered.

Whether poker players are predicting the future or not, I would argue Amazon is doing the same thing:

- Each potential customer can be considered a hand with a certain probability.

- Amazon is sizing their "bet" (ad budget) according to the probability that customer will convert.

I also agree with this observation about poker, and can imagine Amazon using a similar strategy: https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/39462238

JSX operates under a regulatory loophole that allows them to bypass TSA security and hire significantly less experienced pilots. It is easy to find articles with very different opinions on JSX than this one.

I would ask why a company operating the same planes and more total flight hour than a competitor should be able to bypass the same security requirements and hire pilots with half the flight hours. Same goes for Skywest Charter.

The rules they work around, in Part 121, were made stricter 15 years ago because of the Colgan crash https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colgan_Air_Flight_3407#Legacy that killed 49 people on the aircraft and one on the ground.

The public association of soy with xenoestrogens is what I was talking about, not actual consumption. Soy's a good dietary staple but it's hampered by the (probably incorrect) perception that it's going to feminise men.

It's not enough that governments use my tax money to subsidize my competitors and enable them to monopolize industries. Billionaires (who themselves are the beneficiaries of the scheme) are now also giving free money to my competitors.

I understand that the intent is good, but the effect is mostly negative. It's about cherry-picking one set of people and giving them an unfair advantage over everyone else.

The irony is that those who are in a position to be engaging in some kind of charity or philanthropy are the only ones who don't understand that the economy is a zero-sum game, by their own hand! It's a zero-sum game for everyone else except them.
IMHO you'll probably need a reason for your customers to pay you in the place.

> the history of the many schisms over nonsense is rather tedious

You might be missing something from the early Christian Church (after Nicea). The Church design is hierarchical, with one presiding Bishop with legal jurisdiction over all the activity in their bishopric; hence, fighting over authority.

The tedious philosophical differences are the vestige now because the books and writing remain while the people are long gone. At the time, there was much more at stake. Secondly, Church creed was carefully and thoroughly unified at Nicea in a formal process. Heresy was well-identified and definitely resolved, but sometimes through in-fights or at worst excommunications.

Let's build a realistic model of a game show host. What is the causal process at work?

The game show host isn't going to reveal YOUR chosen door - that would ruin the whole game.

Likewise, the host isn't going to reveal the CAR and end the game immediately without a winner - it's bad television.

So the host opens a third class of "irrelevant goat door" in order to offer you the suspenseful proposition that is sure to get millions on the edge of their seat - switch or stick?

In the case of 3 doors there is only 1 irrelevant goat door. In the case of 100 doors, there are 98 irrelevant goat doors, driving the point home further.

We have to assume the host knows which are irrelevant. All irrelevant goats are eliminated. Which means the probability of the car behind your door is 1/n and the probability of car behind the remaining door is always (n-1)/n. Always. Given this assumed behavior of the host.

Knowing the above gives you a clear empirical advantage for modeling and inference. Why would you reject knowledge that may be directly relevant to the question at hand?

Although comic book lore has a canon defined by intellectual property, the topics they explore tend to be interchangable fictions. That is: there are a lot of characters that have superpowers, characters who drink magic potions or elixirs, and characters who use these things to avoid death. Sometimes these things are defining backstories, other times they are alternate continuities, non-canon one-offs or fanfic posted on Reddit. Because GPT is inferring a "plausible next guess" for any particular piece of knowledge, the likelihood that it understands the specific causal relationships and their valuation is very low: Psylocke is a type of comic book character, therefore the ability is because of <a type of comic book event>, not <the specific event in issue such and such>.

GPT does similarly poorly if you ask it historical questions like "who were the most influential art educators of the 19th century?" It will respond with a jumble of people from different eras and books that those people did not write.

FreeDOS tends to be surprisingly heavy compared to "era-appropriate" DOS revisions. I have an 8MHz 186-class hobby machine, and PC DOS 2000 is lighter and some of its utilities are snappier than FreeDOS's.

I suspect on a 386+ it does better, as you're less constrained by conventional memory, and you've got the cycles to spare for richer utilities.
SDL is a cross platform library, so it works by just using whatever native rendering context is available, abstracted to a common API. In more general terms AFAIK it uses the geometry API under the hood and just pushes triangles/quads to the GPU whenever possible.
I might as well be hallucinating but my personal experience is that GPT-4 got sucessively worse than what it was at launch date at least for general things. Nowadays it just refuse to answer a lot of things and lost the ability to do holistic "reasoning" (bridging knowledge from different areas).
This formulation of a language model in the limit is bad- conditioning on what day it is and what you actually ate is just assuming that the language model is god, which doesn't give intuition on how GPT4 will behave.

A much better formulation is "Search the internets of an infinite collection of earths until you have found the exact prompt 100 times (this will require looking at an exponentially growing number of earths as the prompt grows) and then return the frequencies of the next word."
That sounds similar to having an AI explain where you should be looking in a painting, or where to pay attention in a movie. This might be genuinely useful as an accessibility feature, but I'd also see strong sentiment against it, potentially from the creators of the art.

Was it this article? https://www.damninteresting.com/on-the-origin-of-circuits/

> "It seems that evolution had not merely selected the best code for the task, it had also advocated those programs which took advantage of the electromagnetic quirks of that specific microchip environment. The five separate logic cells were clearly crucial to the chip’s operation, but they were interacting with the main circuitry through some unorthodox method — most likely via the subtle magnetic fields that are created when electrons flow through circuitry, an effect known as magnetic flux. There was also evidence that the circuit was not relying solely on the transistors’ absolute ON and OFF positions like a typical chip; it was capitalizing upon analogue shades of gray along with the digital black and white."
This is the main thing keeping me from trying it. If you could clarify how you protect and use our code, it would be a huge help.
> As someone with a fairly high spice tolerance, I've found a strong correlation between heat and flavor. I think anyone coming from a culture that eats spicy food will agree.

I couldn't agree more. I grow a variety of chili plants on my balcony each year, from the Jalapeno (red and green) all the way to the Morugas and the Bhut Jolokias, with some varieties in between such as Chiltepins and Scotch Bonnet peppers. I think the Habanero is my go-to for most dishes - they're hot enough without being as insanely hot as the ones at the upper end of the scoville scale. That being said, I've enough experience now to know how much of which to put in each dish, and my freezer is full off pods from previous harvests.

I can't cook without chilis, garlic and onions. Nor can I sleep when either of those ingredients are missing. I get cold sweats just imagining that the next pandemic or apocalypse might be around the corner and I'm ill-prepared in terms of the three essential ingredients for surviving comfortably.
Sure, but studying under a lawyer or judge would look very different from law school. I have wondered if a prestigious lawyer would ever open up a few slots of paid apprenticeships, a la Thiel Fellowships. I don't know what the rules are regarding paying apprentices, but anything beats $60k/year in loans! If you can get some bright students who want to learn, they could probably work 10 hr/wk in the first year, 20 hrs/wk in the second year, and 30 hrs/wk in the last two years, while being more than prepared for the bar exam (especially since it has been 2x made easier in recent years).
Parasite: an organism that lives in or on an organism of another species (its host) and benefits by deriving nutrients at the other's expense.

If we drop the species bit, and the negative connotations, it's not far off the mark. Children, in utero are certainly not symbiotic.

Just from a biological POV the toll on women for carrying children is HUGE. There's a whole swath of things that get rebuilt in a woman's body (nose/sense of smell being an interesting one) and a rather large tax on resources. Calcium is a huge one, most mothers in the west supplement as part of pregnancy. Dig deeper and you're going to find more and more biological impact that looks less (re)"productive" and more parasitic.

If you change domains to art, the whole film aliens covers the themes of rape, impregnation and parasitic child birth. These notions are not far from our fears and nightmares.

Lastly loving your children and being honest about a biological and personal toll they take are not incompatible. I know women who HAVE children they love and adore who have used the term parasite to describe the process they went through. It is done partly with tongue in cheek and partly to express something horrifyingly taxing on their bodies...
You may be right but that link is debunking the claim that the video (interview) itself is real, which is not what I said.
> Apparently Nevada has a newish state law (from 2022) that makes it an additional crime to engage in “unlawful use of encryption.”

The claim that the law is "newish" / "from 2022" is flat-out wrong. The law in question is from 1999: https://www.leg.state.nv.us/Session/70th1999/bills/SB/SB485_...

And was most recently amended in 2001: https://www.leg.state.nv.us/Session/71st2001/bills/SB/SB551_...

I'm guessing the author saw the "2022" in the Justia page he linked and jumped to the conclusion of "oh this is when the legislation was introduced" without noticing the "Go to previous versions of this statute" drop-down or the fact that it literally says "(Added to NRS by 1999, 2704; A 2001, 2789)" at the bottom of the main text. Had the author followed the advice in the disclaimer to "[p]lease check official sources", he would've even seen (in said official source: https://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRS/NRS-205.html#NRS205Sec486) the hyperlinks to the exact additions from 1999 (https://www.leg.state.nv.us/Statutes/70th/Stats199916.html#S...) and 2001 (https://www.leg.state.nv.us/Statutes/71st/Stats200118.html#S...).

As much as I agree with the article's premise and find it exceedingly disappointing that my state would pull typical "only pedophiles and terrorists need end-to-end encryption" shenanigans, it makes it unreasonably difficult to take said article seriously when the author gets basic stuff like this wrong; it makes me wonder what else the author got completely wrong.

> The TSA blog carries constant reports of weapons confiscated from people who forgot to remove them from carry-on bags. But the Homeland Security Red Teams in the 2015 test actively concealed forbidden items just as real criminals and terrorist would. The result was that "TSA agents failed 67 out of 70 tests, with Red Team members repeatedly able to get potential weapons through checkpoints."

> Two years later, a Red Team test at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport achieved the same 95 percent failure rate to detect explosives, weapons, and illegal drugs. Repeat national tests in 2017 also went badly, "in the ballpark" of an 80 percent failure rate.

> In fact, the DHS Inspector General has long been a thorn in the TSA's side, compiling a still-growing collection of critical reports. In 2015, the TSA grew so upset with the criticism that it went so far as to classify some findings as "sensitive security information" in order to suppress distribution.
