this is correct. checkbox and radio buttons are form elements and it's helping the user to select choices before sending a form / finalizing. A switch is turning something on or off.

a crude example:
when you are ordering your porsche taycan you are using checkboxes to select additional features and radios to set the color of the car. this form will be finalized into an order, your selections cannot (or will not often) be changed later, a final choice has been made.

your new porsche arrives and you start to set it up to your liking, you might switch on/off features the way you like and switch them back later in a different context. (you won't be able to remove features from your car, or add new one.)

if changing a car's color is not a radio button anymore on an order sheet, then it might be just a switch or a more complex selector of different colors. look at the BMW i Vision Dee, its led panels all around, you won't have to choose a color before, they successfuly eliminated the need for a color selection before owning the car.
I completely agree. When I was a child, there was a super fun steel monkey bars in a park near my home. I used to play a lot on it. Fear was surely one of the fun factors.

Then they removed it, because the local council was afraid some kid might get hurt.

It's sad.
I don't understand. In the first paragraph you say it was stupid because consumers hate it. Then on the second paragraph you say it's underutilized elsewhere.

Why is it underutilized in your favorite use case and shouldn't be utilized in the CEO case?
What started all of this is the observation that they've been successful over the last 3 console generations by not trying to compete directly with Sony and MS but instead to try and innovate and make great games people want to play (game console vs entertainment center).

This doesn't stop being true because you want to label the Wii U as a failure. Many will tell you the Wii itself was a failure. Many don't consider the Wii U a failure.

Who cares, my point stands.
Do you mind pointing out where they make the model larger? The paper seems to suggest they are maintaining the same model sizes.

> Recent research, such as BitNet, is paving the way for a new era of 1-bit Large Language Models (LLMs). In this work, we introduce a 1-bit LLM variant, namely BitNet b1.58, in which every single parameter (or weight) of the LLM is ternary {-1, 0, 1}. It matches the full-precision (i.e., FP16 or BF16) Transformer LLM with the same model size and training tokens in terms of both perplexity and end-task performance, while being significantly more cost-effective in terms of latency, memory, throughput, and energy consumption

Latchkey is a historical anomaly due to atomic families transitioning into dual income households leaving no adults at home and not knowing what to do with their kids. When my mother grew up there was always an adult at home - her mom. Same with her parents. Same with my mother-in-law.

You also don't have to go too far back, just 150 years, to when children were largely used for labor. Childhood itself is a relatively new invention.

The idea that kids sat around doing nothing but getting in trouble with other kids all day is just wrong.

So many issues come down from the fact these people need to campaign to keep their jobs.

I can't speak to your 11 year old, but I'm happy leaving my grandkids with money .. typically I've let them (and my kids when younger, nieces, nephews, et al) pull molten glass from a furnace from 5 onwards (with half an eye watching from not too far away), relatively unsupervised after they've left primary school.

First year high school is typically 12 or so (IIRC).

Chainsaws, angle grinders, etc. are definitely a high school thing, as is riding bikes to the beach and free diving with a gidgee .. as long as they bring back fish.

BP is like a slightly messier BrainFuck. Its alphabet size of 17 is rather odd. Its spec (Section E.2 of [1]) says

> programs containing unbalanced parentheses are made valid, in particular by skipping any additional ].

But that still leaves programs invalid programs like "[[[[".

From a theoretical viewpoint, its biggest flaw is the lack of an input tape, which makes it a non-optimal description method in the sense of [2]. In particular, while BLC programs are at most a constant larger than BP ones, the reverse is not true.

The version of BF that I interpret in [3] is still optimally universal, because its program delimiting fist unbalanced ] is followed by its binary input.

I've noticed these too by randomly stumbling over similar repos. I usually don't run code from random repos, but now I have reached a point where I spin up a sandbox vm even when I trust the repo and the owners. If you are a dev today, you should probably have at least thee firmly separated environments for work, hobby and personal stuff.
Not always, though it might depend on what platform you mean with retro. Kaze Emanuar on YT does a lot of development for the N64 and it feels like half the time he talks about how the memory bus affects all kinds of optimizations. In Mario 64 he replaced the original lookup table for the sine function because an approximation was faster and accurate enough (or rather two approximations for two different purposes).

I love that channel, he reworked the entire Mario 64 code [0] to make it run at stable 60FPS...because he wanted his mods to run faster.

Very nice. I live alone and often I'm baffled by the sheer amount of garbage that my urban lifestyle generates. I was not alive in the 80's but I was told that people used to use more environment-friendly packaging like glass bottles. Sometimes I wonder why this massive change to everything-should-be-packed-in-plastic happened.
This could really use some technical info on how exactly a leap year caused such a mess?

I haven't heard of it before but I haven't been looking I guess...
No, it's computed based on transistor density
Plastic bottles weigh less and can be made thinner. Transportation costs dominate the cost of most consumables
sh will load whatever the OS decides it to open LOL; there is no rule. again why i just go with gnu bash as it is pretty feature rich and exec's other-cli-apps really well. the loops it can do, and arrays are just a bonus; if i need some more complex data structure, then there's another app for the job- that is not an interactive shell. just beware of the dragons when dealing with macos's old-ass bash; check out the version, go with new if you can
Until someone develops some sort of multi-spectral imaging that can reliably sort plastic based on it's composition there's little hope of recycling plastic. And then you still need different enzymes that can break down different compositions.

It's sad, but realistically almost all plastic one disposes of needs to go in the trash can rather than recycling.

You can't even rely on dedicated collection - https://abcnews.go.com/US/put-dozens-trackers-plastic-bags-r...

> Quite the contrary. Once a solar panel is built, you never need to invest into fuel for it, only a tiny bit for maintenance during its lifetime. The energy is provided virtually for free by the sun, gravity or by the aftereffects of Earth's creation many billions of years ago

You still need to maintain a relationship with the largest solar panel producer, which most certainly doesn't align with your Western values.:)

A 1Ω global power grid is a political rather than technical or economic problem.

Batteries are cheaper than you think, and their production is being scaled up rapidly (cars need more than all fixed electricity users).

Nuclear isn't too terrible compared to batteries a few years ago, but the current price and forecasts for future prices of each are currently biased towards renewables being cheaper.
> Undocumented workers do work in farm, janitorial, restaurant, construction, and other sectors that is irreplaceable through any other reasonable means.

It's all replaceable, but only by improving wages and working conditions. I find it a bit unappealing to celebrate the economic benefits we gain by paying people so little to work in such terrible conditions.

That said, I agree it's mostly political theater. Both Democrats and Republicans look the other way when the people who employ migrant workers violate labor laws. If Rs were serious about controlling immigration, or Ds were serious about protecting workers, they would prosecute the employers.

I was a bit surprised however by the way colour grading using LUTs was presented.

As a person with EDS, i would counter that it is way more common than realised. As its a systemic genetic driven inability to produce collagen correctly, the only cure will be when we can rewrite and organisms genetics wholesale, which we are not exactly close to.

Treatments are poor, the condition itself and its systemic effects are almost unstudied. Most doctors either dont know about it or their knowledge stops at 'flexible'. Some doctors (surgeons esp) may even decline to work with you if you disclose EDS.

CSF leak, either from a lumbar puncture, or from things like chiari malformation and other cervical abnormalities are a well known phenomenon within the community. A person complaining of persistent postural headaches usually gets csf leak as the first response from said community. It is however, incredibly difficult to get a doctor to be willing to diagnose it, to have it competently found, and then patched.

Do you have this backwards? Any animal can be "undocumented", and there are in fact strict requirements for cattle documentation if they're to be used as food. But only humans can be criminals.

More relevant is perhaps the issue of accuracy - if a US citizen loses their ID, they are "undocumented". Meanwhile an illegal immigrant, even if they have all their papers and the authorities know who they are, i.e. they are fully "documented", is still not permitted to stay in the country.

It's only a solved problem if you can live with the downsides of automatic memory management. For instance, do you know exactly how much time your garbage collector spends with memory management and when exactly that time is spent, where objects are located in memory relative to each other, and how much time is wasted on cache misses when accessing those objects? If those questions are not important, then automatic memory management is good enough. For other applications those questions may be more important, and automatic memory management is then usually harder to optimise than coming up with specialised manual allocation strategies.
