I use it mostly while driving to request specific songs. It is insane that in multiple cases, it has shown the song I asked for on the lock screen, changing from the previous track so I know it understood what I asked it for, and then plays something entirely random that I have never heard before and is not in my library. I don't know how that even happens, but it has happened multiple times. Siri is truly awful and they certainly don't need an LLM to make Siri functional but anything that drives it forward is welcome relief.

Specific example of Siri seemingly recognizing exactly what I said, but playing something totally different. (In this case it is another song from my library, but I'm not usually in a position to take a screenshot or record the screen when I'm driving.)

According to Peter Berresford Ellis, for Celts, marriages were a legal agreement before being even an economic one, and wasn't supervised by any gods. Multiple marriage type existed, depending on who brought most to the house, whose house was used for the union... Marriage weren't all monogamous, it us unclear what kind of relationship it brought, but it's very clear that it wasn't a religious affair,but a legal one.

Romans and Greeks probably had rite concerning the marriage in city state and big cities, but the majority of Roman estates did not have priests.

Not really. Accidents are a function of driver and environment. You can't control the other drivers. If you think of the primary purpose of insurance as to make sure that the party not at fault is made whole, then perfectly priced insurance becomes like posting a bond in order to drive. Which isn't unreasonable.

(Plus uninsured motorist coverage for the other parts you can't control, which really is an insurance function.)

There's a lot of answers stating that if the code was written by an employee during work hours, it's automatically owned by the company. Is that true? My understanding is the author would still retain copyright unless they've already entered into an agreement with their employer that anything they build during work hours is owned by the company. That kind of thing is pretty standard in employment agreements for software engineers, but for warehouse workers?
Under U.S. copyright law, the person who creates a work is the copyright owner. So if a photographer takes a picture of an artwork, they own the rights to their image.

West elm has been pretty bad for most stuff for us too. Surprisingly we have an okay Urban couch from them that's held up well the last 5 years. The cushions haven't maintained their shape all that much and the feathers occasionally poke through which are my only complaints. Our little kids used to jump on it before we moved it downstairs so the frame was at least built well and it's still pretty comfortable.

Id never buy one again from them though after having everything else fail on us.

There's a reasonable possiblity that Satoshi Nakamoto is a Nicolas Bourbaki, aka a small collective of shared creators that also have a shared key - meaning that all, or a majority, if still alive to form a quorum, would have to agree to release early coins, sign messages, etc.

There's a reasonable chance this was a case of "try this idea and see how it works out" that only grew because of early "hoarding" which was a deliberate strategy at the time and there is no current consensus on releasing any more infomation or coins.

Spanner does global consistency/replication. If having good performance per-tenant globally is a concern, this helps a lot, and is hard to implement on your own. It can also ultimately save you money by limiting cross-region traffic.

Given anti-chinese sentiment in the US, the data mentioned in the piece are likely to be ignored or waved away with whataboutisms.

That said, there's no doubt to me that in the solar space the Chinese offerings are not only cheaper, but also better, than US offerings.

And the price trend remains downwards, while the capabilities (w / panel etc) are trending upwards.

I'm fortunate to live in a sunny place, and I've seen my utility bills drop 85% since my solar install. I did that on half the price of a comparable US system, and, if Internet comments are to be believed, with better monitoring and logging software.
American libertarianism, of which Cato is perhaps the premier example, is a somewhat extreme right wing belief system. Despite not being high control authoritarian like the other strains of conservativism in America, it is still decidedly conservative. We just have an interesting taxonomy of conservative ideologies here, from the dominant strain of theocratic fascism currently in vogue with the GOP, to the anti-regulation Galts like Ron/Rand Paul.

I hope they eventually add a extension to support configurable bounds on allowed fragmentation. There is not really a good way to create a non-allocating fixed upper-bound memory implementation in the presence of worst-case fragmentation except with high overhead.

You can kind of do it by maintaining a bitmap indicating received bytes, but that incurs overhead of 1/8 your advertised stream data limit/buffering size. If you could configure a stream to have a minimum alignment for the stream frame Offset field then you can reduce that quite dramatically without materially impacting the amount of frames you could pack into a packet. For instance, just going to a 16-byte alignment only requires order of 1/128 overhead which is probably fine for most constrained implementations.

You do not even need to make the stream frame Length field a multiple of the alignment allowing you to support trailing non-aligned data. All that would happen is that when the stream has more data to send you would need to resend the trailing piece, but the extra channel bandwidth needed for that is bounded to the configured alignment.

Is it me or did they just recreate Mongodb Shard feature? But now they have to maintain it. They would of been better off going Mongodb or another document database. Then you wouldn't have to worry about scheme changes. Since your scheme lives there n your data model. You could just map changed fields. They should of just used a tenant based design. If a customer was hindering performance on neighboring tenants. They could just migrate them over to their own large server.

More importantly, even though you can't copyright a photo/scan of a public domain work you also don't have to share those images with others at all, you could still paywall them off and (arguably) impose additional restrictions as a condition of getting access, and you certainly don't have to host the files online for everyone like this.

The goal shouldn't be to have just enough internet. 25mbit/3 is incredibly slow for 2024. A single 4K stream saturates a 25mbit connection. 3mbit upload is super low too since a 1080p zoom call is around 3mbit/s upload. When you get close to using that upload your ping and download are going to tank. The average household size in the US is 2.5 people so 25/3 is easily saturated by 2 people just going about their day. There is no reasonable justification for 25/3 at this point in time.

> do we really want the government throwing money to solve that (non) problem?

The FCC isn't saying you can't sell internet under this requirement. Plenty of places have still offer ADSL even though it is under the old 25/3 requirement for broadband. They just can't call it broadband and receive the federal money that goes along with providing broadband. The new rule requires ISPs that offer broadband and receive federal funds to meet the new rules. The new rule forces ISPs to provide a better service to millions of Americans or lose the money they have been receiving for years. Without the new rule ISPs get to collect the money anyways while providing an objectively worse service.

>but if there's a home out there that currently gets 50mbps but the infrastructure for 100mbps isn't in place,

What situation would that be? ADSL don't meet the old requirements anyways so its not relevant, cable based systems like DOCSIS have supported well over 100/25 for 2 decades (DOCSIS 3 can do 1gbit/200mbit and that came out in 2006 lol), and any fiber based system can obviously do more than 100/25. Even if there was some situation were 50mbit was possible but 100/20 wasn't it doesn't mean they lose internet or anything. The ISP is just forced to upgrade their system or not receive federal funds.
It's not very clear and this is not my area, but I think it's relevant that the proton has spin != 0. [1]

<guess> I think that the graphic assumes that the spin on the proton is pointing up (perpendicular to the sheet of paper) and the forces that are drawn are parallel to the "equator". In the "north pole"and "south pole" there are no forces.</guess>

[1] The spin is 1/2, but I guess the exact value is not important for this, only that it's not null.
