This video (with a slightly different title on YouTube) helped me realize that the attention mechanism isn't exactly a specific function so much as it is a meta-function. If I understand it correctly, Attention + learned weights effectively enables a Transformer to learn a semi-arbitrary function, one which involves a matching mechanism (i.e., the scaled dot-product.)
SSTO doesn't rely on aerodynamic lift, it can fly higher than a lift-based vehicle can to avoid air resistance/heating. I suspect you can fly high enough that burning up isn't a problem, but I don't see how you reach that as a conclusion by analogy to single stage to orbit rockets.
Imagine telling a doctor how to be a doctor because they "happen to know someone who works in a hospital". Oh how I would love to have you shadow me on the floor for a week.

> If you think the tool is "fisher-price", then why haven't you told the people, who came up with the solution?

Because they react just like you did.

You perfectly demonstrated why I moved over to the software side. The doctors I work with are sick of the hubris from people who don't understand medicine, so we decided that it will take doctors who are willing to learn software development to actually solve our problems. It turns out it's much easier for doctors to learn how to develop software than it is to teach devs how to be doctors.
It's not as simple as "loading a script" - IP addresses (or in the case of IPv6, subnets) are (for the average person) a limited resource, as is bandwidth, and most amplification attacks require IP spoofing which is not possible from most connections.

If it's a volumetric attack, the side with more bandwidth wins (the attacker may be able to amplify here). If it's a load-based/application-level attack, blocking the attacker IPs at the firewall level solves it. This was application level, not (purely) volumetric, since they already had a WAF/Cloudfront.

Identifying attacker IPs to block is a matter of correctly attributing cost to a source IP, correctly attributing benefit (i.e. legit user activity) to a source IP, then blocking the IPs or ranges where the cost significantly exceeds the benefit you see from that IP or range.

That's easier said than done, since cost can come in many forms (e.g. open connections clogging up memory, TLS handshakes, requests that are expensive to parse for your web server, requests that trigger expensive database queries, in/out bandwidth, ...) which is why most just slap Cloudflare (or here, Cloudfront) in front of it and work around with manual rules like in this example.
The clause preceding that quote gives you the answer:

I'm saying that the base 60 Babylonian system is derived from how many fingers people have on each hand and how many segments per finger, not because it's a fantastic base because it's got lots of whole divisors.

If people were Disney cartoon characters (3 fingers + thumb) they'd likely have used base 36 (9 segments, 4 total digits on other hand).

And yes -- by having a mixed system like this you'll end up with more divisors than if you only count digits.

No, for the use cases I'm thinking of, I really do just want an intrusive linked list. Why would I want to invent a convoluted way to adapt std::vector when an intrusive linked list does exactly what I want?

(Example use case: Some number of objects want to register themselves as observers on some event, and unregister themselves later, in arbitrary order. The same object may register and unregister itself many times. std::unordered_set<Observer*> would be the best fit if performance doesn't matter but an intrusive linked list requires no allocation at all on behalf of the list.)

Nobody disputed that. You made a statement about "something only someone with a high income would say." That's drawing the generality to a specific. It would be like concluding from the fact that most dogs are black, brown and white, that every dog is black, brown or white.

In this case, it could absolutely be the case that the factors that cause money to turn into happiness are not present among FAANG employees to a greater degree than population.

Let's try to phase it in gradually. We'll petition congress to move to base 12, but will compromise, and use base 11 for a while. Then, if people are still not ready for base 12, we can move on to base 11.1 for a few years, then 11.2, and so forth. Maybe once we get to 11.5, we can start a sliding scale where the base increases slightly every day, so people aren't inconvenienced.

Dengue is not a tropical disease. That does not exist. Dengue is a disease of bad governments.

In Brazil, the majority of the population does not have sewage. Tap water is not potable and is not distributed every day, in some areas twice a week, in some areas less than that. This creates the need for everyone to have a water tank at home, creating the possibility of a large number of mosquito breeding sites. And the Moskito Aedes aegypti is a terrible vector of 52 diseases [0], among which it transmits a sarcoma (!!!) among hamsters.

The current government tried not to buy vaccines[1], trying to wait for the Butantan vaccine.

The current Brazilian government is the same or worse (!) than the previous one, more censorship, more dead Indians[2], more fires in the Amazon rainforest[3], and one thing is really worse: all the press covers up the mistakes of the current government .

And...politicians are crazy, intelligent, incredible psychopaths. In the last two weeks the discussion has been about freedom of expression, about Elon Musk and so on. Economy, education, security and health are never priorities. It's clear that the government is trying to pass a law to regulate social media (and using Musk and Twitter as an example to do so), and the mainstream press is very eager to do so, because the law has a part that states that social media will pay for links to news sites. It is not a problem for a country that needs sewage.

They are incredibly good at doing nothing. Some things in Brazil have been discussed for over 100 years, an example is a tunnel in the city of Santos[5].

The next government will also be bad, the population will fight over policies and nothing will change. I will never understand why people fight for these psychopaths. "My psychopath is better than yours."

Please, I will not discuss “fascists” or “communists”, left or right, “everything is politics”, “but billionaires are bad”, etc. These are first-world problems. It is irrelevant for a country that needs sewage. Of course this can be discussed, but not in the current proportion. Sewers are much more important than that.

> I'm failing to see what that has to do with the metric system

You are an apprentice house builder. Your boss hands you meter-stick, with 100 lines on it to mark out the centemeters, and asks you to cut him a piece of wood which is 1/3 meter long. This puzzles you, because you can't find a line on that stick which indicates 1/3rd of a meter.

So you go back to your boss, and he grumbles, but gives you another meter stick, with 1,000 lines on it. You still can't find a line on the stick which indicates 1/3rd of a meter....
In embedded, most of the time everything in a base image (/bin and /usr/bin stuff, not to mention /sbin) will be flashed to a single partition.

Secondly, Linux has something called overlayfs which you can use to build a sandwich any way you want. That is to say, the contents of your /usr/bin directory (and others) can simultaneously come from multiple partitions, some of which are writable, without the use of any symlinks. Overlayfs will merge things.

With overlayfs, you can create an image that appears mutable, but is assembled out of read-only partitions.
>> The entire point of Linux distributions is to do this job for the user.

You would think, but we have some fair conflicts between distros and upstream software.

Bottles is throwing the gauntlets down and said "we dont care about your bug if your NOT using the flat pack, if you got it from your distro its your distorts bug". A lot of other bits of software are moving this way because they just dont have the bandwidth to support the disros' nonsense (in their eyes)

Some software maintainers are looking at flatpack as a way to right size the effort in supporting users.
100 hour days are exactly what I think of the metric system. It's good for science and engineering, so you're not constantly converting bases; but when it comes to daily, human-scaled activity, I want numbers that are small and easy to divide. 1 / 4 == 3 is a lot nicer than 1 / 4 == 25.
On the contrary, net neutrality would ensure that the innovation can continue. Here's why I think this way. Networks are getting clogged down due to increased usage in the last 15 years and big companies want to ensure that they are not affected by this. Whatever new technology we create will surely need open access to the internet. So, we should invest in improving the infrastructure itself, not grant favors to some private companies. This is the only way we can give change to the new technologies and other applications of the internet.

When Netflix first came along, ISPs wanted to charge them because of the high traffic usage. Some even slowed down their traffic. ISP networks were designed with a particular usage pattern in mind and things were changing. ISPs couldn't ask their customers to watch less Netflix and didn't want to put data caps etc. for obvious public relations reasons. What customers do with their internet connection is up to them, ISPs should never have a say in this. Just like the electric companies should have no say in which kitchen appliance I use. ISPs can sell different packages with various limits in speed quota etc. but favoring private companies with lucrative deals, or tracking the DNS traffic and selling marketing information about their customers should not be an option.
Looks to me like we're in violent agreement. The aircraft weren't deployed to counter drones, which would be foolish, but other possible threats.

Caste != social hierarchy. It's divinely-attributed, multi-generational, immutable social hierarchy.

What you're describing is bog-standard social stratification. We aim to do it by economic utility. But even though we're not good at economic mobility [1], in a caste system that mobility is near zero.

I use a paper planner, but I think I can address your questions. As a disabled person, I have to have patience with things in my health changing all the time. For that reason, most of my to-do's and appointments are written in erasable pen (Pilot Frixion, excellent pens btw). But if there are things that do not care about my health, such as the Rent being due, then I will write that in pen. The rent doesn't care how I'm feeling, it's due on the 1st regardless.

All in all, I have frequently had to reschedule or erase something I thought was "set in stone" for a variety of reasons. I've never regretted writing something in erasable ink whereas the same cannot be said for permanent ink.

TL;DR - the more dynamic, the better.

Secondly, if I have to make a change, my biggest problem is not changing the one item, but changing the downstream issues, such as dependencies, or energy levels. If I'm cancelling task A then I'm also having to figure out how to get dependency B and C done another way. If I'm moving appointment Y to another day, do I have the energy to do appointment Y along with what I already had scheduled for that day?

Dependencies and working with your "energy budget" might be two places for AI to help with a digital planner.

I think that makes a lot of sense in music or other "divide this up" tasks that don't require concrete objects but that's not most of what the metric system deals with.

And time isn't decimal-based at the larger-than-one-second level, after all.

But in the world of concrete objects "eyeball this into two pieces" is much less useful and less common than "ok so we need to account for the extra 3mm of this extra piece so add that to the 44mm base measurement" - which is much more straightforward than something like "add 3/32nds to 1 and 3/4 inches." especially if you don't know that you're gonna end up with a measurement in the 32nds when you make the first measurement.

Or larger-scale like "we went six hundred feet already, we needed to go a mile and a half, how much is left?"
So it seems we should do both, right?

Spoken like someone who has never had to do it. I've been up and down the ladder and I can tell you that it's much harder up than down, even though from afar it doesn't look like it.

If it's easy for someone it's because they are special, and usually in my experience they're special in a sociopathic tendency kind of way, where the things that make being in leadership hard (having responsibility over so many careers, feeling social and professional pressure from all directions, fending off middle management politics) come much more naturally to them.

Stand your ground laws (or more specifically castle doctrine when it's your own place) vary by location, particularly on that bit about property, but eeking out a "make me" is a pretty dodgy defense that your life was just put in imminent peril and you needed to shoot them to resolve it. Self defense becomes harder to justify when you're baited into being the one to escalate violence. Not saying it's never been argued just that it's not really a universal interpretation of what stand your ground laws are about.

Them saying something like "If you don't get out of here in the next 20 seconds you'll never leave" or something would be a more clear cut example. The problem is getting someone to say something silly like that is a lot harder than just getting shot at which is what makes stand your ground laws for dealing with squatters not only iffy but risky.
