I promise you, doctors have been telling fat people it's their fault for many, many decades. It's one of the most common complaints of fat people in a medical context - that the first response to nearly any medical issue is "well you should lose weight".

> When Melissa Boughton complained to her OB-GYN about dull pelvic pain, the doctor responded by asking about her diet and exercise habits.

> On this occasion, three years ago, the OB-GYN told Boughton that losing weight would likely resolve the pelvic pain. The physician brought up diet and exercise at least twice more during the appointment. The doctor said she’d order an ultrasound to put Boughton’s mind at ease. The ultrasound revealed the source of her pain: a 7-centimeter tumor filled with fluid on Boughton’s left ovary.

Those ads on facebook for some random dating site, i had stumbled upon 10-15 ads in few hours while scrolling reels.
I reported each one of them, until I got tired and uninstalled facebook ffs.

The weird thing about some of those ads were full NSFW content. Literally Porn.
During reporitng the ads, it says "It was targeted to People from the age of 19 - 30, living in country <Some Asian Country>. It was a third world country. It seems like they don't fukin care who promotes what contents in such countries.
Is this needed because motherboards no longer include any floppy drive channels?

I'm not yet grasping why Greaseweazle is better than a standard cheapy USB floppy drive.

Greaseweazle is undisputable an awesome name for a project, though.

Edit: Thanks for the clarifications :)
They are related a little, around the log2 (exponent), I totally agree. I guess I figured the magic number subtraction that turns it into n^(-1/2) is so wild that it puts the Quake trick in a bit of a different class. This right shift thing is a lot older and there’s probably a lineage of ideas from the right shift on integers to the Quake trick. I discovered another fun one on my own that is probably already well known in bit-math circles, but simply inverting the bits of a floating point exponent is a very rough approximation to the reciprocal, good for a Newton initial guess.
You make these as statements of plain fact. I suggest that the reality is way more subtle and complex than you allow for.
I've been pretty happy with just a couple of sizes of Chemtronic Solder Wick (I use the lead free). Apply some extra flux (Chip Quik SMD291NL) on the joint, use a medium chisel tip, and its been able to handle anything I've thrown at it. I've also used it on a somewhat fine-pitch SMT M.2 connector by wrapping a smaller size around a small needle tip.

I can imagine if you did this a lot it might be worth investing in the tweezers or suction to save time, but as a hobbyist I'm not convinced the math works out.
hey, author here, happy to answer questions, and would love to hear from anyone using the library :)
The closer to human abilities AI gets, the less space there will be for new jobs to appear. Just because new jobs appeared before doesn't mean they always will. It does make sense to slow down this progress if we don't have answers to what happens if jobs start disappearing faster than we can replace them.
“Fixing demand” is a fool’s errand. Why would you want to limit the economic growth of the country?

Ah, if only this was a thing a decade or two ago.

IMO, the way GPG was done killed what could have been a decent ecosystem. It's a combination of two factors:

1. Don't roll your own crypto.

2. The available code (gpg) is a colossal pain to use.

So for instance, how does something like KMail deal with gpg? There's no libgpg originally. There's just the gpg tool, so you've got to call it as a sub-process, and it really sucks:

1. You have to deal with process management, multiple filehandles, text parsing, non-trivial interactions, etc.

2. It's slow. You pay startup costs every single time. This is a huge problem on something interactive like a mail client, and it's dependent on things like the amount of keys in the gpg store.

3. gpg has very specific ideas about how it wants to be used, and not everything fits.

Say that you oh, want to do some stats on GPG keys. There's no libgpg to just read an .asc file and get the list of signatures from that, no. You have to call gpg, feed it the key, parse the result. For some things you might actually have to have gpg import the key first. Manage a fake home dir for GPG. Deal with the horrible performance as the keystore grows. A million keys at a gpg invocation per second is going to be around 2 weeks.

Unfortunately it's only now that gpg is effectively dead that the problem started to get fixed.

Also, at this point GPG is effectively a legacy technology anyway. Modern cryptographic thought considers GPG to be a terrible idea for a whole bunch of reasons that are deeply built into it, so the only solution for that is throwing it out.

The Dreamcast was discontinued just as the Xbox was preparing to launch, so they didn't really compete.
Based on the code that CoPilot has produced for me, I can 100% see that happening, and rather a lot.

So far, the code it produces looks really good at first glance, but once I really dig into what it's doing, I find numerous problems. I have to really think about that code to overcome the things it does wrong.

I think many doctors are used to doing that already, since they have to correct their interns/assistants/etc when they come up with things that sound good, but ultimately aren't. But it's definitely something that they'll fail at sometimes.
Sadly I've heard much worse, not in jest.

Some academic communities are pretty dysfunctional.
One of the first Sovirt Union's general purpose computers, the MESM[1], was built in some pre-revolutionary mansion outside Kiev.

Romania also had significant semiconductor industry and DDR too, such as Kombinat Mikroelektronik "Karl Marx" Erfurt.

I'm disappointed the article is so eager to tag late communist Bulgaria "repressive". The same myopic vision where Bulgaria can be of no significance, but also where socialist regime can manifest with nothing but repression.

The good news of course is that if you were sampling a real signal, then that signal was not actually a perfect square wave. So the fact that you can't (re)construct a perfact square wave is somewhat moot...

Zoning is relaxed but your area is clearly not out supplying the demand. Doesn’t matter what the zoning laws are if you can’t or don’t build. Here in Canada our limitations are only with zoning and code because we otherwise have the facilities and resources to meet demand if we want to.
It seems OpenPGP is still riddled with SHA-1. Git kind of avoided the problem (https://github.blog/2017-03-20-sha-1-collision-detection-on-...). What's your plan to deal with the issue?

Yes the process in Germany can be improved a lot. But a lot of it is similar or equivalent to process in other places

Yeah I had skipped this when reading the article, sorry it really sounds like the author doesn't know much about the basics of gov processes

"Don’t forget your ID or passport because that’s their foolproof way of identifying you"

Yes, that's exactly what it is. Your passport is official ID
The Notar does much more than just read the contract; he is liable for the correct administration of the transfer of ownership (done by a three phase process which guarantees that the seller cannot get the money without transferring the property and the buyer cannot get the property without selling the money).

The concept of title insurance doesn't exist in Germany as the Notar eliminates the risk.
That would have been true if they didn't already spend those decades arguing instead of building anything which would theoretically reduce the general scarcity. It doesn't make it worth arguing over to the point pf delay now, but it matters that it's only feasible to build 50k luxury units by displacing the last hovels in the tiny amount of new space opened up for them since the 50s
> I can't understand the toxicity of mind that makes people think it's OK to impose others view their own, unwanted points of view.

You're using words like toxic to describe me and you don't even know me. This goes to show the incredibly rotten and highly polarized the status quo has become. Systems that behave the way you're describing are the current norm, and they're broken.

You can choose for yourself to ignore me. You can advertise to the world that you ignore me and people can opt into that if they choose. But you shouldn't ever have the right to unilaterally make that call for everyone. Nobody should have that power.

Imagine if [opposite viewpoint] could technologically shut you down for everyone else? The systems we design today could enable that tomorrow. Just because you're in a comfortable spot today doesn't mean that eroding rights and freedoms won't ensnare you tomorrow or that the zeitgeist won't change.

> If you're not welcome in a community

This is also frankly a disturbing trend. Creating little fiefdoms of unacceptance. Who makes you the judge of that? You don't even know what my views and values are, and you're seeking to shun me already.

We're all the same. We just sample the world differently. We all need to be more accepting and loving and stop playing petty team sports.

In the meantime, you're free to keep on tooting. Nobody is taking Mastodon away from you. It's just not a system I want to spend time or energy advocating for.

Ask HN: What's the right way to scale K8s for GPU workloads?
I'm running a relatively simple app right now that makes use of EKS clusters for GPU workloads. Right now everything's pretty simple and working great, despite all of the warnings about k8s being complicated.

However, everything I have is currently scaled up and down manually. Looking into HPA it doesn't seem like it's a tool built for GPU tasks where each pod can only handle at most one unit of work at a time. I have both async GPU workers and a small flask API that uses GPUs. These are currently all using g4dn.xlarge EC2s. Essentially I want a scaling scheme where the number of nodes approximates the number of concurrent requests, up to a maximum.

I did look into simpler solutions like Replicate etc. but found they would be too limiting and a little bit over-simplified for us.

Edit: I know I should probably use k8s Jobs for the async worker stuff, but when I looked into it there seemed to be more operational complexity than I can handle. I'm a solo dev and set up workers that poll a Postgres job queue so they can manage themselves instead of there being yet another service to schedule and maintain k8s Jobs.

that's also for a custom boutique constructed house. iF we used efficiency of scale and mass maufacturing techniques, that would get driven down.
It should be noted that enough British loyalists felt sufficiently oppressed to flee north in the aftermath of the American Revolution to found two new colonies (New Brunswick and what would eventually become Ontario). So it would be more accurate to describe it as more tolerant rather than tolerant in absolute terms.
Er, is it possible that you are using `scipy.spatial.distance.cosine` to compute the similarity? If so, note that this computes the cosine distance, and the cosine similarity is defined as 1-cosine distance.

I tried out your example using the following code:

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
import scipy.spatial as ssp

model = SentenceTransformer("all-mpnet-base-v2")
A = model.encode(['chocolate chip cookies','PLS6;YJBXSRF&/'])

CosineDistance = ssp.distance.cosine(A[0],A[1])

Where `CosineDistance == 0.953`

This means the model is actually working quite well, were these to be similar to each other we'd expect CosineDistance to be much closer to 0.

The other comments about such distances being useful for relative comparisons also apply: I've used SentenceTransformers quite successfully for nearest-neighbor searches.
I agree ! But I have a few fire alarms, and 2 water leak alarms, that would be a lot of wires lying around, and this solution is wireless :)

Yep. We've got it working with OpenPGP Card devices (Yubikeys, Nitorkeys, etc.). The signing part was actually pretty easy and the decryption required a bit more work but the maintainer was super responsive (https://github.com/rpgp/rpgp/pull/315).

but are they charging that much based on it costs to make a double wide, or is it based on what the market will bear. If a custom home costs X, you'd charge X-a little bit to be competitive, not cost of materials * a reasonable markup.
