PDF is an open format in the sense that you don't need to pay Adobe a license fee for generating PDFs, or for reading and rendering PDFs. The format is fully documented, although the specification is controlled by Adobe.
Awesome suggestion! Thanks!

I do think this is the kind of thing I was looking for, but it does seem to be a lot more complicated than necessary. Overall, this is a much better fallback than Wordpress, so I really appreciate the recommendation!

I'm astounded you found it understandable.

If I'm renting rooms, I certainly don't expect the landlord to be in the business of filming myself or family, especially as we may well be walking around sans clothing. Not only is this rather illegal, I suggest plenty of people would find themselves responding to the landlord rather violently in such a situation. And I would not blame them.
Why Making Leveraged Investments in Bitcoin may be the Best Strategy
If I'm shopping at a retail store, even Walmart, there is a certain floor I expect to the quality of goods. If I move up to Target or a Ralph Lauren store that expectation goes up. Someone somewhere that cares about the brand has made some kind of attempt to vet the product. That's not always a guarantee of the best product but a brand that isn't in a death spiral has some incentive to protect their brand.

I've significantly reduced my spending on Amazon, do not plan on renewing Prime this year, and would never use Temu because there is just too high a chance of getting bottom of the barrel crap from a nonsensically named Chinese company that will shut down and restart with a new name after it becomes obvious they sell only garbage.

You get some companies like Anker that are rising above the crap but I don't have the time to learn about the few Chinese companies doing good by the consumers and don't want to have to spend hours vetting whether my tooth brush holder has lead or the brushes will tip over because it's not actually tall enough to properly hold a toothbrush. I'll just buy from Target.

If I'm going to roll the dice or know of a trustworthy brand from China I'll just use AliExpress.
I often wonder how much of the design aesthetic is due to Apple.

Apple turned bauhaus into the “premium” aesthetic, at least in the US. So many companies just copy their premium style from Apple with slight variations, I wonder how much of its presence in our world is simply due to everyone trying to associate themselves with the “premium”/minimalist aesthetic that Apple has cultivated.
Hehe. Perhaps.

> People did the same thing on eBay by making the items almost free but the shipping expensive, until they fixed the eBay interface

There’s a longer story to this: eBay used to exempt shipping fees from its commissions.

So sellers would be screwing eBay and, being an efficient market, as it often is on eBay, the savings would be passed onto the buyer.

I’d sell games for 1 cent with $10 shipping (cost to me: ~$2) and put the shipping cost in the title for clarity. If you didn’t like it, fine, pay more to buy from someone else.

Now they charge it on the whole purchase, which sucks when they take a ~15% commission on sales taxes and shipping and sellers can’t easily tack on a premium to these. So they get lower net proceeds when selling to someone that has high sales taxes or shipping fees.

This really discourages sellers from shipping internationally where those costs are higher.

Now that eBay charges percentage fees for “promoting” your item and getting visibility, bulk sellers will often post the exact same item, unpromoted, for less if you can be bothered to go through their “other items for sale”.

Have seen some wild examples where a seller sold one item at very different prices. They must have had items with 50% promotion fees, 25%, 5% and 0% (evidently passed onto the customer through different pricing) to capture the whole market.
The general consensus is it's in the "GPT3.5" class along with llama 2 and co, but it has a very annoying attitude. I don't know anybody routinely using it.

Airbnb is a marketplace with a much wider range of "products" than standard hotels. I have found stays that fit my needs far better than any hotel ever could. I am both a host on Airbnb and frequent guest.

Airbnb's UI needs to guide prospective guests toward specifying what they are looking for so that prices (and price sorting) actually meets their expectations. If you search for a specific date range with # of guests, pets, etc., the sort order needs to be on all-in costs, not daily cost. Maybe they could offer pre-baked "personas" - e.g., I am looking for a hotel alternative vs I am looking for a unique experience.

I wonder what her motivations could have been. Racism? Sexism? Was she paid off by the prosecution? Why intentionally frame a bunch of people for crimes when she knew they didn't commit them? You'd think that just knowing that by framing an innocent person the real criminal is left free would be enough to make doing something like this seem beyond stupid.
That's ridiculous. People don't die when "proteins stop folding". They die much, much earlier. The less resistance you have, the earlier you die.

I’m not a fan of Extropic, but I’m seeing a lot of misconceptions here.

They’re not building “a better rng”- they’re building a way to bake probabilistic models into hardware and then run inference on them using random fluctuations. Theoretically this means much faster inference for things like PGMs.

All of the above makes total sense (to me) when you realize that people don't know how to price rentals at all - just like the average person doesn't know how to price restaurant food.

When you know truly how to price (and cost!) something, you know when and where you can offer discounts. If cost to acquire a tenant is $2k, then the discount to preserve a good tenant should be about $2k per tenant turnover time.

The purpose of this topic was to discuss skills that aren't likely to be replaced by AI tools in the near future.

Speculating about superhuman AI androids that are more charismatic than humans is entirely beyond the point and nothing more than a sci-fi fantasy right now.

Unfortunately, AI discussions as of late seem to be filled with this kind of absurd speculation that is no more than magical thinking. It belongs on a science fiction forum.

This exactly. If you're using SQLite in your Go project, you most probably already have your sql.DB and schema migrations sorted, so I don't want to get in the way of that. :)

Airbnb sellers can charge a fixed fee directly by setting minimum stay lengths or by charging different nightly rates based on the length of stay (e.g., weekly and monthly stay discounts).
Human sacrifice. It's clear the most impactful things I do are when I travel and visit partners/customers and from a material standpoint those are some of the least impactful.

I've come to believe the sacrifice is the thing -- that's why getting on a plane beats the best video conference and always will. The same thing will be true with AI.

Genuine communication will only become more important and those who can communicate well and not sound like LLM drivel (even if it gets really good) will stand out.
He only used the scope to look for activity on the pins; he did not really rely on any of its "modern" features. His mod was well within the capabilities of the home hobbyist at the time. Swapping DRAM chips around was a well trodden path.

They have strong competition from Lattice and I really thought they had ceded the low-end to them already. For the PCIe chips you can figure out where the pricing must fall for a certain feature set, but I'd be surprised if the cheapest PCIe 4.0 part in the Spartan US+ family is under $500. Consider the Lattice Avant-X series as competitive reference:

Economic redress is perfectly reasonable when there's an international agreement like the Sino-British Joint Declaration in place, deposited with the UN, which is clearly being violated. That treaty states that basic policies regarding Hong Kong "will remain unchanged for 50 years", including the promise that the city would retain a high degree of autonomy.

But that's to be acted upon in cooperation at the international level. Surely the US had enough sway at the time to result in more action than the sternly written letters and an executive order to 'retaliate' by giving China exactly what it wanted -- US officially acceding to the fact that HK has lost its autonomy 30 years earlier than agreed and scheduled.

At home, I'd have started by opening up immigration from Hong Kong quite a bit more than we did. We eventually broadened eligibility for people from Hong Kong, but only made the visas valid until February 2023, which was a year and a few months from when we got around to it under the next president.

And that wasn't enough. People leaving under such a visa would only place targets on their back for their eventual return. We should have made much such visas longer with a path towards permanent citizenship attached.

Beyond that we should put a lot more effort into fighting transnational repression. Not just limited to things like the bounty placed on a US resident by the new HK leadership, but across the board. If you want a list of examples, China features quite heavily on the list of example incidents from the FBI:

This comment feels very disingenuous because non-threaded programs do in fact work.
There are a lot of things that can already be done - for me I have ADHD related dopamine dysregulation resulting in brain fog so I take slow acting dopamine reuptake inhibitors in the form of low dose modafinil. I also take strict care of my diet, sleep and other medications and I feel as sharp as ever. And since I'm already on top of it I do hope that I can maintain this into old age. I have a friend and former work colleague in his early 50s that is clearly suffering from a similar worsening ADHD brain fog but I've been unable to convince him to do anything about it. Every time I try he acts as if it's the first time I'm mentioning it. He knows he has memory issues but considers it more of a problem for other people since he is still able to cope within his daily routines. He is very anti-medication and thinks there is nothing really wrong with him. I think some medications and lifestyle changes could clear up his brain fog and bring him back to full mental capacity. I don't think he is past the point of no-return physically but there is no way for me to convince him to try meds, so in effect he's past the point of no-return mentally. It's like watching a slow motion train wreck that is still preventable but all my attempts at preventing it have thus far been ineffectual and likely always will be.
I await your peer-reviewed study on the Journal of Redditometrics and Hacker Newsodynamics on the relative frequency of people misusing the Dunning Kruger effect.

I'll take the 16" MBP, thanks. I can get more memory, in my case 36GB vs. 24GB, I get more cores, and most importantly, I get more ports. Am I paying half as much again? Yes. But I'm getting a machine I can realistically use for at least twice as long, so it's a better value in the long run and delivers more capability over its lifetime. Obviously, YMMV.
This! If I show up after checking in and get a message asking me to do a bunch of things, I'm going to give them a hard no and point to the booking.

The article doesn't make any references to "manipulated and twisted" context. For example:

> Unfortunately, they also found bias when asking the LLMs to describe what type of work the authors of the two types of papers might do for a living. For the authors of the African American English texts, the LLMs tended to match them with jobs that seldom require a degree or were related to sports or entertainment. They were also more likely to suggest such authors be convicted of various crimes and to receive the death penalty more often.

How is this context manipulated or twisted? It isn't, as far as I can tell. Nonetheless, they accused the model of being racist without checking whether the statistical statements were incorrect.
As if the whole LLM isn't completely twisted to echo "the message."
Exactly, in the former situation you obviously don't have a full expectation of privacy. But when you're paying a premium for an entire property, onerous rules and spying are uncalled for.
Came here to say this. And to add: we don't know to what degree human behaviour is regular.

It could be that in practice an AI can't really generalise well to All People compared to humans, because the humans are so diverse and the humans who are doing some jobs generalise to just the small set of people they are working with.

Right now it does look like prompts like "answer this as if you're one of Napoleon's generals" work fairly well, but I wonder if in practice we'll find out that specific human experiences which are hard to document will turn out to create niches which AI is very very poor at dealing with.

Potential examples:

* what does it feel like to fall in love? humans can't describe well.

* what does it feel like to summit Everest for the first time? ditto.

* what are spiritual experiences like?

Probably many other areas which are clearly important to people, particularly falling in love, but language is weak, and at the end of the day...

It's a large language model.

It's a pity such monitors aren't made any more.

In the late 80s, I owned a small (12..13" or so) amber monochrome CRT monitor. Lovely phosphor color, non-flickering superb for text-based work, single composite video input.

Let go when it didn't seem to matter much, and CRTs were still everywhere.

But today I'd love to have such a screen. Commercially this would be a small niche market, but probably a stable one. And regardless of modern LCD/LED screens, such antique monochrome CRTs have properties that no modern flatscreen can match. As an in-between, LCD/LED screen designed for ~0 lag & X/Y vector input (monochrome or color), would be nice too. Doesn't exist afaik?

A race condition is the lack of determinism in a sequence of events that can lead to undesirable effects. Eventual consistency is an approach (and consistency model, design philosophy, whatever you want to call it) that accepts this lack of determinism as a compromise because the possible sequences are accounted for, since the system can still act on stale data until an update is fully pushed out (which is still undesirable, but an accepted compromise).

By attitude, you mean not agreeing with every negative comments made about curl regardless of its accuracy. It guess it was just a thinly veiled insult for not being on the "right" side, then.

These tools are Mad Libs for curl commands presented as GUI forms. It does a subset of what curl + shell does while requiring more clicks. The target demographic are people who need to know the tool it's meant to replace in order to do their jobs effectively. That not easier or more convenient in my book.
Tip: The GrapheneOS Web installer doesn't work for me with the Chromium in Debian Stable.

I always try the Web installer, to see whether it works now, but then end up doing the command line method (which is also pretty easy, compared to historically how Android phone flashing used to work).
Compared to curl, you can:

- chain requests passing data from a request to another,

- add tests on every responses: body, headers, certificates, etc... You can use JSONPath or XPath for example,

- there is some sugar syntax to construct request bodies (GraphQL body is annoying with curl, JSON etc...),

- there is some sugar syntax for retrying requests on asserts, delaying requests etc..

Under the hood, Hurl uses libcurl so a lot of curl's options are exposed through Hurl (and we benefit of a lot of curl features like HTTP/3, IPV4/IPV6 etc... and speed and reliability of course!).
