While IVAO is more popular in Europe than IVAO is in North America, VATSIM is still more popular in any given region. If you think ATC could be more realistic, or take into consideration anything you think might have been overlooked, I definitely encourage reaching out to your regional vice president. I highly suspect they will share your feelings, but they may be able to expand on what's technically and logistically possible. Sometimes the only barrier is a lack of volunteers! Even VATUSA was without a social media management team lead for several weeks until just a few days ago, due mainly to lack of volunteers.

> is going to be extremely high to make it profitable to build a plant that only runs 3% of the time.

It's probably fine, as the cost of renewable electricity is now lower than the fuel cost (aka the variable cost) of these plants.

In a lot of places, it's now cheaper to run a gas plant with renewables than without, as the build costs of the renewables is lower than the cost of the fuel they prevent to get burned.

The Atem can definitely do this. There are youtube tutorials on it.

You use one of the many apps that can output your text, set it to output the background as green or whatever.

Then you can use the Atem to do one video stream inside the other, picture in picture, you can customize the size of the picture in the picture.

You can also have ot chroma key out the green (or whatever) from the text app, so it will only display the text, and the background will be the main video stream.

This opens the door to very exciting hardware shifts, like to optical computing, where there's already been over a decade of research on ternary optical computing and other parallel research at using optical computing for more efficient neural networks.

If this really holds up, it likely means we'll be moving to new dedicated hardware for AI compute much faster than when it was FP.

The parent comment you're replying to draws the wrong conclusions from the data. Australia already obtains the majority of its power from coal, altogether fossil fuels represent 91% of Australia's consumed energy, with coal as the majority [2021-22 period, ref 1]. The subsidies provided by the state and federal government represent a -decrease- of 5% year on year. The parent comment seemingly skimmed over that point in their reference materials - they also misread the figure it's 11.1Bn, not 1.1Bn

The subsidies for coal generation are necessary and not a reflection of Australia having a growing need for greater coal production (it does not, consumption is trending lower year on year)[1], despite the lower coal-power generation over the 21-22 period[2], energy output has risen by 1% (primarily to service exports).[2]

Currently Australia is no where near the point of having that wonderful luxury problem of solar/renewable inputs tipping the balance to shut down coal production. Stating as such is merely regurgitating coal-industry propaganda. Rather, Australia is adequately planning for such a transition by significantly investing in battery technology. In the meantime current battery technology already allows Australia to burn less coal while simultaneously resolving coal's supply issues.

The reason why you don't see noteworthy subsidies against battery technology is two fold: they are a fraction of the cost and they pay themselves off relatively quickly. Coal doesn't feature either of these benefits, and must be propped up by tax payers. Due to the small cost, Australian states are implementing large battery schemes without federal subsidies, then growing these when they generate a profit.

To use an example: The South Australian "Big Battery" cost $200M, in a single year alone (2019) it saved consumers $116 million.

I've been using Dagger to do container service lifecycle as the API is pretty powerful. But some other alternatives, depending on your use case

- Some CI/CD support container orchestration e.g. Github service containers. This is my usual recommendation for CI setups. You're unlikely to get local runs this way though. It also has a lot of similar limitations to testcontainers

- If you're building for Kube, managing the container lifecycle and services with kube is probably going to be more straightforward than docker networking stack. You can run a minikube and spawn your containers in it, for example. Then your client library that was previously running testcontainers is simply making kube calls. This gives you much more control over the container lifecycle

- If you're not spinning up and tearing down containers repeatedly (I've seen people just use the same container in unit tests as a service and just wipe it. Often for performance reasons to avoid the overhead of spin up and tear down), just bootstrap a compose file before running your tests.

Sometimes testcontainers is really going to be the best solution for your problem though. One common use case is if you need to spawn a LOT of the same container over and over for your unit test suite, and it has to be a fresh container. My advice is to try to isolate this part of the pipeline from the rest as much as possible if you have to do this.
Given the weights are just mapping to a virtual network structure anyways, my guess would be that as parameter sizes increase any difference node precision might have will evaporate when trained from the ground up.

So moving to extremely high efficiency native ternary hardware like with optics is going to be a much better result than trying to mix precision in classical hardware.

We'll see, but this is one of those things that I wouldn't have expected to be true but as soon as I see that it is it kind of makes sense. If it holds up (and it probably will) it's going to kick off a hardware revolution in AI.

Maybe 15 years. I've realized that I should have learned other professional skills, and that there's a tremendous amount of personal investment I should have avoided having in professional projects. As a professional programmer, there was what I thought was important based on what seemed to be best practices, and there was what was actually important, which was probably getting something visibly completed regardless of quality as fast as possible, and improving if there was any extra time.

Importance and value are determined by who's paying you, not what you'd like to imagine is important in some hypothetical world, and getting paid is the most important thing outside of side projects.

I also wish I'd have realized earlier that at least in western culture, people rarely say what they mean and it's absolutely crucial you learn to read the room. The word "ostensibly" is quite useful. If you're working on anything but open source or a side project, your goal as a contributor is to infer what the goals actually are of the people who have the power to fire you, even if they state the goal of the project is "to make the best x" or "make the world better". If you spend time making something accessible, but it doesn't ship on time and nobody asked for it to be accessible, you've fucked up and nobody will thank you. If your company says they care about your well-being, and you take an in-opportune mental health day, you'll realize pretty quickly what your manager actually cares about, and it's probably not you.

Other than that, programming is awesome and powerful and mentally stimulating and potentially profitable, and it's pretty cool to get into, so welcome to the fray.

It’s not radicals capturing institutions, at least not in a nefarious way. The masses simply have a different morality than they used to. In the marketplace of ideas, the scoring function is not wholly or even mostly rational, instead it is mostly determined by morality, which at present is this new morality. The radicals have just made an idea-product that sells well to people with the new morality. They are not steering the ship, they are just riding on it.

Of course this is all happening at a subconscious level for almost everyone involved. It’s very hard to step outside of one’s own morality.

>Do you really think that a DEI mandate specifies refusing to produce white faces in historical contexts?

I don't think that. I do think it created a system that disallowed it by mandating perhaps slightly less ridiculous rules that are probably just as bad. That is, there is no rule "do not produce white faces in historical contexts" but there is a rule "add black or brown people to every image". This results in that they will frequently generate generate black vikings, brown Napoleons ect. Separately, Google seemingly does not allow the prompt "create an image of a white male."[0] (If reports are to be believed, which may be wrong, and I don't use Google's service here so I can't test it. Perhaps it's a 50% fail rate or something, it does seem hard to believe that they are doing this). So this taken together results in it being impossible to generate white people (or people that have light skin or whatever term) as they existed historically eg. as Vikings or people like Napoleon or a general "European king."

It seems from the rest of the post that you don't know that they truly are adding extra text to users prompts asking for diverse people in the images. That is really the case, and I will go look again to find the sources that show this.

Edit:

source 1:

>Google might have been adding ethnic diversity terms to user prompts “under-the-hood,” said [Margaret Mitchell, former co-lead of Ethical AI at Google and chief ethics scientist at AI start-up Hugging Face]. In that case, a prompt like “portrait of a chef” could become “portrait of a chef who is indigenous.” [1]

source 2:

>Google's Gemini system seems to do something similar, taking a user's image-generation prompt (the instruction, such as "make a painting of the founding fathers") and inserting terms for racial and gender diversity, such as "South Asian" or "non-binary" into the prompt before it is sent to the image-generator model.[2]

Red-teaming came from think tanks helping the military. It's a sensible term in this context, basically they act to anticipate the reaction of the public by entering offensive queries and reporting on them in a way that can override the blue team's shortsightedness.

What I really don't like is the "working around the clock". There is no need to rush a solution as quickly as possible, and will only serve to make the results worse because as we all know, googlers don't like to work around the clock and will not give the best results if they are forced to. Except if promotions are on the line.
Complete synergy into everything else emacs.

Easy examples, any source that is delimited with `#begin_source language` will have whatever the editor would do for `language` in the delimited section. Searching the file is exactly like searching any other file. Committing it to source is trivial, as it is a somewhat normal text file.

And while org is not a perfect static site generator, it works surprisingly well for it. https://taeric.github.io/challenging-my-filesize-intuition.h... is a fun example I did not too long ago showing off some of the benefits.

That last actually shows how emacs can be treated like what a lot of folks use jupyter for. With the main difference that the "on disk" form is a somewhat normal text document using fairly trivial markup.

He wasn’t a hunter, and wasn’t hunting - he was asked to help find a downed or injured animal with his drone and I think most people who had such an ability would be happy to help.

Nobody wants an injured animal to run off and die an awful death and so it’s best to find them any way you can.

And with mathematically significant orbits, there is also the chance that some process stabilises to them which increases the chance of seeing them significantly. It is like being impressed by fractal designs in plants. The plant isn't intelligent and doesn't know about fractals, it is just that repeating patterns are easier for evolution to stabilise on.
