When you consider that a graph and a matrix are isomorphic, doing vector matrix multiplication takes a vector with a set value, say row 4, and multiplies it by a matrix where row 4 has values present that represent edges to the nodes that are adjacent to it (ie "adjacency" matrix). The result is a vector with the next "step" in a BFS across the graph, do that in a loop and you step across the whole graph.

A cool result of this is, for example, taking an adjacency matrix and squaring it is the "Friend of a Friend" graph. It takes every node/row and multiplies it by itself, returning a matrix that are adjacent to the adjacencies of each node, ie, the friends (adjacencies of the adjacencies) of friends (adjacencies) of the nodes.

Deeper traversal are just higher powers, a matrix cubed are the friends of the friends of the friends. You literally say `A @ A @ A` in Python, and you're done, no dictionary or lists or loops or anything else.

A picture is worth a thousand words, see figure 7 of this paper:

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.05790.pdf

Also check out figure 8, this shows how incidence matrices can work to represent hyper and multi graphs. An pair of incidence matrices reprsent two graphs, one from nodes to edges and the other from edges to nodes, these are n by m and m by n. When you multiply them, you get a square adjacency matrix that "projects" the incidence into an adjacency. This can be used to collapse hypergraphs into simple graphs that use different semirings to combine the multiple edges.

For some pretty pictures of this kind of stuff, check out CoinBLAS (note I am not a crypto-bro, it was just a very handy extremely large multi-graph that I could easily download in chunks to play with):

I once tried to halt a bad enterprise sales purchase before it had been signed...

But some people (who didn't understand the use of the software) had already already invested some face in the purchase.

Maybe also a bit of "nobody ever got fired for buying ___", and the enterprise sales rep seemed very reassuring. :)
They keep getting this weird result in experiments of artificial sweetened drinks being associated with about the same amount of obesity as sugar sweetened drinks. So here's another that says it's associated with about the same amount of atrial fibrillation.

It may be that in both cases the hormonal damage is done in the cephalic phase insulin response, which happens for all sweeteners.

If true many of the biggest players in the food industry have a huge incentive to obfuscate it. And true or not, almost nobody wants to hear that all sweeteners are sub optimal nutrition to some degree.

A simple example of non-uniform randomness is the two-dice roll.

Rolling two dice gives you a number which is random in [2, 12], but not uniform -- 7 is far more likely than 2 or 12.

> No, you are just trying to justify the greedy corporation habits.

You're really showing off your ignorance here, and you're assuming a lot around my defending of greed etc. My view's on Apple's pricing are pretty irrelevant here, and I have nothing to say for or against them because I frankly don't care and don't know the logistics behind them.

All the times I've worked on projects that involve shipping an operating system, hardware, etc I've found that there are a lot of tradeoffs especially when you're doing something a little bit different. This is the case with M# silicon and also the case with Windows on Snapdragon systems.

They aren't starting with expandable hardware built for running desktop PCs, they (apple, Qualcomm) are starting with highly integrated SoCs that have some really narrow goals around power and battery life. Their systems are more designed for running phones and tablets than for entry level laptops.

> No, they segmented their products and their fanbois are not only drunk their koolaid but eagerly defend it too.

Don't like it? Don't buy one. But fact is, their more narrow model for how a PC can be built is selling really well and very few regular people miss their second monitor because of it.
We're definitely running. I already have most of our years worth of data imported into Linear. I was just curious how badly they were planning on ripping people off.
The high prestige jobs the LLMs associated with SAE mostly require higher education, usually post-graduate.

Perhaps the model is only accurately learning that more educated people use a particular dialect of English taught by universities.

There's really no way to tell, because the researchers didn't include other dialects of English that aren't favored by universities, like southern, or Yorkshire.
As an aside I suggest using dvc. It stores only metadata of large files in the got repository while maintain a separate data repository. The data repository can also be synced with cloud storage like AWS. It really helps manage code better without raw data

Wyze doesn't support viewing their cameras on PC without a bunch of fiddling. I downloaded the app and was running within 20 minutes of having the idea. The usability isn't the best, but having it on my desktop is has been a real time saver with a new puppy.

It was a useful way to run kindle on a surface tablet (as the windows version of the kindle app is not touchscreen friendly). Other than that, I didn’t find many use cases.
Of course proper diet and exercise are important, but in a culture where fat is a diease and no one wants to say fat or obese we are left with wait and see.

Wait and see until adulthood before taking intervention more or less ensures children will continue thier food patterns and will be left on the sidelines watching.

I want to be clear, surgery is not something to be taken lightly but neither is obesity.

If a family cant or won't change behavior by 12, it is time to think about alternatives.

I'm talking about alternatives that might allow an obese or morbidly obese child to participate in activities that they cant now. I'm not talking about these kinds of interventions for a husky kid who might grow out of it.

Clearly the utility of these instruments is not a single item.

One would imagine that monitoring of this sort is critical infrastructure for monitoring remote & continuous emitters.

Someone has already motivated many of these science missions, and they are not funded, to my knowledge, by industry. These are already rolled into govt investments so really the argument is not total CO2 balance, but what technologies can be deployed next year that will give you continuous reductions over time.

_Many_ people will argue their clean-tech _will eventually_ provide savings, not many can be installed next year at scale.

This is an obvious choice IMO, if for no other reason than people cannot out-right emit with no consequences.

If the price difference between the M1 and M2 air is negligible for you, it would probably be best to go for the M2. The M1 uses the old Intel chassis. The M2 gets the new design which means a better screen, keyboard, speakers, webcam, MagSafe charging. It's well worth a little extra, even if you don't care about the spec bump. Lots of quality of life stuff.
I'm not sure what to take from this. It makes it less punishing to not make your payment on time, but is that a good thing? If you make this a habit, you will eventually end up spending more on interest than you do on groceries...

On the other hand, "You don't have the money to pay us, now you owe us more money!" is always kind of an interesting dynamic, on the order of "the beatings will continue until morale improves."

I'm not saying that this is a bad thing, just that it doesn't seem like a huge win for consumers. My bias is that this is not something that I deal with often (being late on CC payment).

Imo ddg's mission is incompatible with today's web. The mission is simply to serve you regular Google/bing search, but without tracking and they do that well, but it is missing the absolute trash fire that those results are currently (yes, they have moved somewhat from that but clearly they are still heavily reliant on Google ranking). Kagi on the other hand, I spend 5$ a month on search that doesn't track me AND gives me great results. The open-source stuff (think of me when a bang now gives you https directly :D) is just the cherry on top.
Fail is an understatement, the ratio between the two volumes is basically (n/2)!(4/pi)^(n/2). Which is also the expected number of tries you'll need. The time doesn't merely grow exponentially it grows faster than exponential.

"Better" is a highly subjective term.

But lenses can do things that postprocessing can't do, strictly speaking (though it can often emulate well enough to fool most people).

The input to a lens is a field of photons that are:

1. Striking the sensor at different places. In other words, which pixel they hit.

2. Coming into the sensor at different directions.

3. Coming in at different wavelengths.

The 2D image captured by a sensor completely discards 2 and it drops a significant amount of information from 3 on the floor by bucketing all wavelengths into red, green, and blue amplitudes designed to mostly mimic human visual perception.

Lenses have access to the whole shebang.
Interest rates will go up so that they will end up making the same amount of money, just from slightly different people.

Another possibility is penalty interest rates that kick in if you are late.

The difference with phones is that when you call somebody, you have an incentive to keep the conversation short and to the point, because you are wasting your own time as fast as you are wasting his.

Email has no such checks and balances: anybody in a 1,000 person organization can, at any time spend only 5 minutes of their time and cost the organization a man-week of effort to read it.

That plus the fact that you are expected to wade through unlimited megabytes of text which has nothing to do with you, in order to find the few things you really do need to know, makes email uniquely rude.
I never realized before that sentence, but the presence of ads and tracking on a webpage is correlated really well with me never wanting to read its content. I might sign up to Kagi just for that.
As of a few months ago, the UK was still discussing separating from the ECHR [1], so they may yet snatch their success from the jaws of failure either way.

Reading between the lines of their Q&A [2], it seems largely de facto and functionally voluntary for the participating nations to comply, perhaps straying into strongly-worded letter of disappointment territory in the case of a failure to comply. And they can apparently just leave. How do you push around a sovereign entity with a military? Sanctions, I guess.

Yes, exactly - I did the ctrl cmd switch previously, but then there's

1. Magic Keyboard with no "fn" button.

2. Macbooks own keyboard with FN button. Which really messes with me, because my pinky expects the left most button to be the CTRL action button.

All of it messes with my brain so hard - it makes those little actions hurt me almost every time.

And as you said, different sets of terminals drive me just so crazy.

I might try the settings, but I also overall hate the MacOS settings, as it seems it's all just so obscure and weirdly limited, like someone has given me those random options that do not adhere to me at all. As mentioned previously, no easy ability to turn off acceleration, which keeps gaslighting me and not feeling right even after using CLI to turn it off.

My solution has been to opt just for a mouse, but Magic Mouse feels extremely terrible and awkward to hold. I have Logitech MX Master 3 - which feels nice, but not with Macbook. It sometimes randomly starts to skip and lag, I have to reset it. And it still feels like at times some force is working against me when I'm trying to move the mouse.

I still feel it just somehow working against me even if I have turned off the acceleration, despite it working well with Windows.

And then the MacBook animations, which feel horrible. The jumping up down thing, feels just annoying. The genie effect, terrible, the having to move the app to install it and then no loading indicator, horrible. I know I can turn off the Genie, yes, but it feels so cheesy and cheap animations.

I can honestly list countless things more that I hate about MacOS, but feel so smooth on Windows.

Spotlight feels better with latest MacOS version, but previous ones I always write something, and it just changes moment before, or it gives me irrelevant result. Because I either use spotlight to open the correct app or Windows btn, which is very responsive and always opens what I want.

The search for correct app should be realtime. Also I'm not going to go into window management....

Then one of the very common things I have to do, taking a screenshot from part of a screen and putting it in a clipboard to share with someone. I have to use I think 4 fingers?? And then another click. And all of those 4 fingers in such an awkward position.

Perhaps in some countries but low population/high labor cost places like Australia and NZ don't have domestic vehicle manufacturing industries to protect and free trade opens access to foreign markets for their exports. If "friendly nations" want to reinvest and reopen domestic vehicle manufacturing operations we might show some interest but they all ran away when we stopped paying them massive subsidies for inefficient production of unpopular vehicles.
So Boris Johnson single handedly changed the course of Ukraine’s history ?

Or, equally likely, he just arrived with guarantees that weapon deliveries would be maintained ?

Whether Russia presented a so called “peace deal” is irrelevant. The propaganda claim is Boris Johnson came in and somehow mind warped the Ukraine side.

Which, like a lot of propaganda in this war, completely removes the agency from the Ukrainians. Funny how that works.
The fact that twitter was usuable the whole time does.

I would want an equivalent of cublas optimized for my specific GPU model and implementing the same API.

AFAIK cublas and other first-party libraries are hand-optimized by nVidia for different generations of their hardware, with dynamic dispatch in runtime for optimal performance. Pretty sure none of these versions would run optimally on AMD GPUs because ideally AMD GPUs run 64 threads / wavefront, nVidia GPUs run 32 threads / wavefront.

I'm the same way a trackpad is a trackpad. I actually find mac's more annoying because they are so big for some reason and i barely use like a quarter of the entire space of the dang thing but my palm will constantly accidentally trigger it because it's so huge. Why are they so big? drives me nuts.

I also don't use any gestures. I hate moving my hand down to the trackpad at all if i can avoid it and the entire OS seems built around you using the dumb gestures.
There are a lot of people who always run balances, so interest is always accruing. It won't change a whole lot for them in that regard.

There's probably people on the margin will will pay late, then be hit with interest. Or they'll be late and cancel their no-interest grace period.

Banks are complaining about this, but I think in the net their income won't change all that much. They'll probably also rates rates slightly, and/or make penalty interest rates more common, or stricter.
You're using a lot of words to say: "They avoid Citi because they gave them bad service".
The uniform distribution is in some sense the most random distribution you can choose, given that you have a finite number of cards. Formally, it's the maximum entropy distribution on a finite domain.

But what if the domain isn't finite? e.g. the entire real line? Then we can't define a uniform distribution, because the total probability can never sum to one. We can still define a maximum entropy distribution, but only by making some more assumptions. The normal distribution is the maximum entropy distribution on the real line, given a particular mean and variance.

Other examples: on the positive real line, the exponential distribution is maximum-entropy for a given mean. Poisson distribution is the equivalent on the non-negative integers.

Bad move for the upcoming windows on arm with x elite.

When I was a teenager (17) all my friends in my class they could juggle three balls and I was a little jealous I wanted to be able to do like them. I remember buying three juggling balls and during recess I would train , sometime I would even skip class to train ! It took me about three weeks to be able to juggle with 3 balls! I am left handed so maybe it has something to do with that.

The animation on this site are great but they could be better if the balls were numbered (1,2,4)
The empty space in the middle is pretty easy. These are roots of polynomials of the form +- z^n +- z^(n-1) +- ... +- 1. If |z| is small then the earlier terms are smaller; the absolute value of their sum is at most |z|^n + ... + |z|^1 which is at most |z| / (1-|z|). If this is < 1 then the sum can't be large enough for adding it to +- 1 to give 0. So if |z| < 1-|z|, i.e., if |z| < 1/2, then z can't be a root.

That's for the "main" image. The first image in Baez's post is for polynomials whose coefficients are -4,-3,...,+4, and the analysis would be different for those, but it's still true that if |z| is small enough then the sort of calculation in the previous paragraph forces it not to be the root of any nonzero polynomial with small integer coefficients.

The holes near +- 1 are more complicated, I think.
Why even have late fees at all? You're already paying interest.
It did suck though. Remember that serfdom (or mandatory military service) in Europe was formally abolished only at the break of the XVIII/XIX century. But even without it, we are talking about generational periods of a moderate poverty (by prices going occasionally down, not by better pays or surplus economy) or just the regular poverty where 90% of time/energy is spent on earning on food only (sometimes, rarely, clothing).

You are right about "no walls everywhere". At the time there were also no concept of a country border as it's today. If only a free peasant, you could walk from France to Russia, start settling some land there and no one was any wiser. It would be a local administration problem at best (if any was present), but not an international one like today.

I'm curious why dual license with both the MIT and Apache licenses.

This is not a criticism, and I could be wrong about this, but doesn't the mit license allow anyone to essentially bypass any extra responsibilities provided for in the Apache license? Specifically I'm thinking of the patent license grant provisions. I don't think the MIT license has anything to say about patents.

And if that is the case then why not just license it MIT?
