Are you using Backblaze's desktop app, or B2? B2 could store your data for < $20/month, and you can periodically sync folders using rclone. Depending on your needs, B2 has an S3-compatible API, so you could spin up a minimal file or photo server that would normally be backed by an S3 bucket, and point it to your B2 bucket instead.
I just try to remember that it's okay to strive for more while also taking the time to appreciate where you are and what you've accomplished
"we push on save"
It's not just loss of the uncertainty in prediction, it's also that an LLM has zero insight into its own mental processes as a separate entity from its training data and the text it's ingested. If you ask it how sure it is, the response isn't based on its perception of its own confidence in the answer it just gave, it's based on how likely it is for an answer like that to be followed by a confident affirmation in its training data.
If we are going to consider using prior runs of the program having the file loaded in RAM by the kernel fair, why stop there?

Let's say I create a "cache" where I store the min/mean/max output for each city, mmap it, and read it at least once to make sure it is in RAM. If the cache is available I simply write it to standard out. I use whatever method to compute the first run, and I persist it to disk and then mmap it. The first run could take 20 hours and gets discarded.

By technicality it might fit the rules of the original request but it isn't an interesting solution. Feel free to submit it :)
Not op, but I found this benchmark of whisper large-v3 interesting [1]. It includes the cloud provider's pricing per gpu, so you can directly calculate break-even timing.

Of course, if you use different models, training, fine tuning etc. the benchmarks will differ depending on ram, support of fp8 etc.

Typical large amount HN uniformed comments where people espouse what they think and either don't or only lightly back up what they are saying in any meaningful way. Thinking there are just simple solutions to a very complex and entrenched issue.

This one hanging under the current top comment as an example:

"It's the same in the US, Italy, etc Doctors are a cartel receiving a monopoly from the State. That's all there is to it, really"

Forgetting the reasons (sure - it's all some grand program by the AMA et al to keep up current Physician pay) for a second thinking that if you can just churn them out like you do 'coders' with some quick program that doesn't require many many years of training and residency programs as well as hospitals and other infrastructure. And of course the cost to do all of this.

In almost typical HN fashion it's always a scam. Everyone else is getting away with being overpaid and undertaxed except top software engineers who of course deserve the pay they are getting.

The particular Physician in question is in Australia and is a surgeon. So you want to just be able to pluck people at random and give them a chance to be a surgeon as if there isn't something special that is required for that specialty.

Also, that Surgeon details some of his bad experiences but not how often that has happened. And doesn't even detail what he has done in terms of fixing it with the hospital administrators just continues to be a martyr getting beaten up by the system. Not claiming it's his job to try and get change at his hospital. But by the same token this idea that he has to do what he does or 'people will die' does not fly. Your own health and sanity is more important than that (as is your families).
It taught me that most bedrooms dont have enough air flow, it helped me figure out just how much i need the window open or not closing the door which improved my sleep. Also helped me see the importance and notice the effect of having a air filter, and fine tune location and fan speed. I find that air quality is something you get used to and dont realize the effect it has on you unless you pay attention and experiment. its not something i pay attention to every day i could probably use it 1 week 2 times a year and have 90% of the benefit. That being said a lot of people probably live in better more well designed places with less issues than i have.

Negative. Almost twenty years in the software industry, and I clock in at 9 and clock out at 5. Let's be honest, earlier on Fridays. It wasn't always that way, but now I prioritize time over more money, and for me it's worth the trade.
You would replace function calls with syscalls ? Yeah well, if you omit performance and complexity, why not ..
io_uring is nice. Yet my application have to call that lzma function and get the result now : you now add cross-process synchronization (via the kernel => syscall) as well as insert the scheduler in the mix
Apple can regularly change how things are done because they have absolute control over their platform and use an "our way or the highway" approach to breaking changes, where developers have to go along or lose access to a lucrative market. This approach really really would not work on Linux: consider that the rollout of systemd was one-tenth as dictatorial as is SOP for changes from Apple, and it caused legions of Linux users to scream for Poettering's head on a stick.

That is true, but the root comment was specifically referring to dependencies of dlopen'ed libs not getting loaded. That one is 'fixable'.

No. Non-profit hospitals can accumulate endowments just like non-profit universities. And that endowment usually goes into real estate or other investments, just like any other large pool of money.

> However, I think we haven't really thought enough about how much community benefit they need to offer to justify being tax exempt - and it's a hard problem.

It doesn't really seem that hard. If somebody wants to build a new building to do medical research, and the medical research benefits the public, what does it harm if they also put their name on it?

If anything it's a well-aligned incentive. They'd want the thing with their name on it to be associated with public goods like curing diseases and not disreputable things like waste and corruption.

Sounds like you want to apply value calculation to people - is this person's life worth the same or more than this other person's? Then they can get healthcare.

And we can see that because you're complaining about, for example, parkour stunts, but not the much more common sports that cause significant injuries.

I get that it's a common desire to say "this person does not deserve to live because I don't like their choices", but like so many other things it turns out that the cost of trying to do this is always more significant than just not assigning value to people's lives, and those policies have a tendency to capture people you don't think it should apply to. Take the various conservative anti-women laws that suddenly became a problem when they interfered with IVF for middle aged white women, despite that being a completely consistent application of the claimed rationale for the law (if an embryo is a live human, then IVF requires murder, but everyone knows an embryo is not a person, the goal of these laws, much like your desire to restrict access to healthcare, is about punishing people for perceived slights).

I might have thought you could also see how the costs associated with many illnesses might contribute to the proportionally higher tax rates on things like alcohol and tobacco in countries with public health services.

But there's more to it than that, you're arguing against a Public Health Service as though your claimed concern about unreasonable costs from bad life choices does not apply to private healthcare+insurance, but that's simply not true. Your insurance premiums are priced to cover the YouTube stunters, the alcoholics, the people playing sports, the people driving, etc just like a Public Health Service. The only difference is that your insurance companies and hospitals are making a profit as well so definitionally cost more as applied to the total economy (a statistic that has been repeatedly shown is that the US spends more on healthcare than countries with PHS, but has lower coverage and worse outcomes). Because the metric for success in a public health service is treatment, the system is optimized to treat the most people. For private health care the metric is income, which means hospitals charge more, and optimize their billing to maximize the amount that can extract from insurance companies (that's why your anesthesia for a surgery is inexplicably billed as a separate procedure), and insurance companies optimize to deny or delay coverage as much as possible.

> Support is a good thing, nobody is forced to use secure boot or things signed by Microsoft.

ok it is true that these partition types are older than I previously assumed.. but the statement about "forced to use secure boot" .. that is not true at all, yes lots of devices are forced to use UEFI secure boot. In fact, a quote from a Debian derivative recently stated "we use a kernel from Canonical to support booting a wider range of devices" .. because they just want to do that? no one is making them do that? really, the market truth of laptops and cloud VMs is requiring UEFI in a calculated way, with the keys being issued and managed centrally from MSFT. info welcome

I am suspicious of the use of MAE as a metric. I would like to see a range of metrics, especially RMSE that penalizes large differences more. If we can pick the metric to judge the models by surely some metrics make the results look better than others.

I truly appreciate these blog posts. I am building my own microscopes for different purposes and got into many of the same situations as bunnie did. It's nice to see other smart people tripping over the same issues.

opencv and pyqt5 work fine together if you delete a single file that gets installed by one or the other pip (I can't recall which). Ah- I see you found a slightly different solution but in the same area:

envpath = '/home/bunnie/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/cv2/qt/plugins/platforms'
os.environ['QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH'] = envpath

I ended up writing a standalone program just for OpenCV testing: in the control thread, I use opencv to read from the camera or a video file, and then pass those frames with qt signals to the GUI thread. But before I do that, in the control thread, I do various image processing algorithms that use parameters set by Qt GUI elements. For example, for exposure time, make a QDoubleSpinBox (I use Qt Designer to quickly design nice GUI) and then the user can just adjust it up/down. I use this a lot for tuning parameters for hough circle detection.

It's absolutely worth it to get deep proficiency in PyQt, especially the QGraphicsView framework. if you're not uing that, you should be.

One more suggestion- I like PyChart and Qt Charts rather than doing data vis with OpenCV or matplotlib.

Definitionally, at least in the US, Autism is a disability. It's a qualifier for the Americans with Disabilities Act.

The specific definition: "A disability is a physical or mental impairment that makes it harder for a person to perform certain activities or interact with the world around them."
For many ASD makes it harder to interact with the world around them, whether that's overstimulation, communication challenges, or something else.

It's reasonable to wonder if the disabilities were caused by brain damage post-partum or are symptomatic of his autism. At the same time we shouldn't forget the many others with ASD and similar disabilities who lack another explanation. Some of the population with ASD have limited communication skills and cannot pass as neurotypical.

> Apparently it turned out to be stress from work, his hours, his fear of failing. Who will ever know

You are saying that 'it turned out to be stress from work, his hours, his fear of failing' but then 'who will ever know'.

Also why does it matter that he was such an apparent (to stress) academic high achiever? That doesn't make you immune in any way to anxiety or making other life choices that could be detrimental to your health. Understand that you are adding color to your story but really the 'loved, funny, played a mean guitar' why does that matter?

Easy answer appears to be he was pushed by others (or himself) and went into a field that he was not (mentally) able to do. After all most Physicians are not killing themselves (high achievers who go to Harvard or a less impressive school). Literally the same thing could have happened to him if he went into any number of high pressure fields or had other mental issues.
Its also worth checking out kvrocks, which is a redis interface on top of rockdb that's part of the Apache project, and very well maintained.

It's clearly either incompetence or corruption. There is no way a hospital couldn't find a legitimate use for spending an arbitrarily large amount of money. You treat more indigent patients or buy another MRI machine etc.

Personally I'm not much of a reherser. I like to make a point with each slide, and as long as I know the point, I can "freestyle" the actual text.

The exception are high-speed sessions, where I have a slide, or two, per sentence. They have to be highly scripted and so I practise them a few times. But, while they're a lot of fun, I don't do them often.

For me, prep is much more about what to leave out. It's easier to do a 2 hour session than a 1 hour, and harder still to do 30 mins. Slides mostly help to keep me on track and not get distracted.

Colloquially, from the folks I've spoken to, luxury refer to those hospitals that offer high-end rooms, fancy furniture, concierge service, and so on, for a higher fee. I.e. Places where the differences are immediately obvious to the layman

If it's indeed the case that most hospitals can't cover their overhead then by default it must be limited to the high end, if it ever does happen.
In a country in which tens of millions of people own guns, public safety becomes a personal responsibility, and so individuals often decide that it is in their best interest to protect themselves by buying a gun. This desire to be protected against those who have guns by getting a gun, multiplied across millions of people, has resulted in an arms race that makes everyone less safe.
