Makes sense to protest and raise hell before you get fired (or quit), in such a context, yes.

What doesn't make much sense is to act surprised and complain that you got fired afterwards.

Getting fired is exactly what one would expect when an employee is not only misusing their working time, but also disrupting everyone else's work, and actively trying to publically undermine the company's image (e.g., by suggesting that Google is supporting literal genocide, without any actual evidence of such).
I've thought about it, but the target market for my project isn't a high growth one; it's US middle school teachers (years 6-8, typically). Public schools aren't exactly flush with cash—individual teachers even less so—and while I (and my school teacher wife) think I'm on to something that would change teachers' lives, I can't imagine a world where that market would lead to a six figure MRR.

Starting to think I need to find grant money rather than startup/seed money.

But if we have to hunt our food then all those ‘ma meat must have ma meat’ dudes living in shitty small overcrowded city apartments wouldn’t be able to get their meat and they would get very angry. Probably to the point of them starting to eat other humans as those are perfectly hunt-able in big cities.

You need to relax and stop posting nonsense.
Any Macbook with 32GB should be able to run Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct.Q2_K.llamafile which I uploaded a few minutes ago. It's smart enough to solve math riddles, but at this level of quantization you should expect hallucinations.

If you want to run Q4_0 you'll probably be able to squeeze it on a $3,999.00 Macbook Pro M3 Max w/ 48GB of RAM.

If you want to run Q5_K_M or or Q8_0 the best choice is probably Mac Studio. I have an Apple M2 Ultra w/ 24‑core CPU, 60‑core GPU, 128GB RAM. It cost me $8000 with the monitor. If I run Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct.Q4_0.llamafile then I get 14 tok/sec (prompt eval is 82 tok/sec) thanks to the Metal GPU.

You could alternatively go on vast.ai and rent a system with 4x RTX 4090's for a few bucks an hour. That'll run 70b. Or you could build your own, but the graphics cards alone will cost $10k+.

AMD Threadripper Pro 7995WX ($10k) does a good job too. I get 5.9 tok/sec eval with Q4_0 and 49 tok/sec prompt. If I use F16 weights then prompt eval goes 65 tok/sec.
There are two things in the article: the NLRB rule (temporarily paused) and a bargaining order from an Administrative Law Judge who said Google is a joint employer for a particular group of contractors under NLRB case law.

The NLRB makes nearly all its law via adjudication, not rules. The aggressive interpretation of joint employer is what is causing companies to put up walls between employees and contractors so they don’t get swept up by the NLRB.
The fact that exceptions are used is testament that they do have some utility. Same can be said of either/result.

‘Objectively better’ is appropriate either in very simple choice scenario, or in a case where one is throwing away ones integrity.

> It isn't that science cannot, it is that they do not.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree about that too.
But this is not what I asked though.

GP, and you in turn, both contend that the employees are not under a democratic regime within the corporation. I understood that point the first time it was made, and I don't disagree with it, so I didn't really need you to explain it again to me.

Democracy is a form of political organisation, and since GP brought it up to describe the relationship of the employee to the corporation, I infer that they assimilate the corporation to a polis. So what I am asking is what you would call the type of political organisation that describes the relationship of the employee to this "polis" ( the corporation). Feudalism? Monarchy? Theocracy? It's likely none of these three either, but then what describes it best?

Edit: For what it's worth, your description of the corporation as a democracy, where the employees provide labour but are not consulted on decisions sounds like Athenian democracy where the employees play the role of the slaves. I think that this is in tune with the conventional Marxist view of salaried work in capitalist societies. So I guess that's one answer to my question.
I use a Pixel with the Nova Prime launcher (which is a fantastic launcher) and it can do all of these things except the audio stuff. Individual app audio control is definitely one of the features I wish I had the most.

Some of the things that keep me on Android include:

* Iceraven (Firefox) - I use a number of extensions that make the internet much more pleasant, including ublock origin, ublacklist, dark reader, violent monkey, keepa, augmented steam, and more

* ReVanced - makes YouTube much more enjoyable: automatically skip ads, intros, like and subscribe reminders, and other "fluff", set custom playback speeds and remember them, return the dislike count and background playback, and so much more.

* Smart AudioBook Player - I look for books on CD and rip them because SABP is so much better than any other app I've tried.

* Headphones jack and especially microSD support (moto g100). I could probably live with Bluetooth headphones, but expandable/removable storage is incredibly useful and Apple seems to be dead set against it.
Post Covid what do you think the chances are of that happening now?
> magnesium level reported in a blood plasma test is worthless.

This is true, and the reason is more interesting and illuminating than what you stated here. Blood magnesium levels are a significant part of how your body regulates the speed of the heartbeat... so in a normally functioning body they need to be kept pretty constant. So if you don't get enough Mg in your diet, your body will start extracting Mg from tissues and bones keep the levels in your blood high enough. But it will be missed there, because Mg plays important roles there, too, it's just that regulating your heart-beat takes precedence.

This is why, if you have any doubts at all that you're getting enough Mg in your diet, it's a good idea to supplement Mg. A bit too much doesn't do any harm, but too little can cause all sorts of problems (especially neurological) but it won't show up on any simple tests as being the cause of those problems. Mg supplements, even the "fancy ones", are relatively cheap... just know that Magnesium Oxide (the most common from in cheap multi-vitamins) is very poorly absorbed and probably useless, but pretty much any other form is fine as a supplement.
A lot of people misunderstand figurative bottlenecks too.

The "7 women" does not mean anything like "only 7 women existed at the time". Particularly:

* other women existed who only had sons, or whose daughters only had sons, etc. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galton%E2%80%93Watson_process (about surname extinction, which is basically the same thing other than sex-specific polygamy effects)

* other tribes existed (or split off) who later faced extinction due to being outcompeted by these 7 tribes.

It holds its value for the same reason as fiat. Because the chance of anyone executing a successful attack on it is prohibitively small.

And if someone does, as you said, then it goes to zero.

In your view, how would bitcoin go to zero without a compromise in encryption?
FlowCatch: My First Independent Development Project
Hello everyone, I’m thrilled to share with you my first independently developed product: FlowCatch. As a frontend developer who has ventured into learning Rust and integrating it with my frontend expertise, I’ve created this desktop tool that simplifies web scraping for everyone.

Here are a few features you might find interesting:

Visual Spider Configuration: No coding needed. Simply record your browser actions to set up web scraping. It even handles dynamic forms, making complex data collection straightforward and easy.

Save and Export Configurations: Keep your setups for future use. Share them with friends or colleagues to ensure consistent and reliable data collection for everyone.

Local Operation, Ensured Privacy: All operations run on your machine. No data is sent out, eliminating privacy concerns. It’s just you and your data.

Efficient and Compact: Thanks to Tauri, it’s not only cross-platform but also fast. I carefully consider each package's impact on size. Currently, the installer is only 4.x MB, and the installed size is just 7.x MB.

As this project is new and still evolving, I am eagerly seeking as much feedback as possible. Ideas for features, bug reports, or any other input—your insights are crucial for improving FlowCatch.

Check out FlowCatch [here](https://waveapps.xyz/flowcatch) and let me know what you think. I can’t wait to hear how it might help you or how it could be improved!

Thank you for your attention. I’m really looking forward to seeing how this project develops with your support!
Really? Thats awesome, and unexpected! Got to try it out today then.

Depepends, if you want to introduce ambiguitity or remove it.
This makes sense for a general business scenario yet for me I want (I bring this up about myself because I assume I hardly am unique - the same proobably applies to many) to be treated with assumption I am sufficiently psychologically mature to calmly ignore whatever said to me I strongly disagree or dislike. E.g. whenever a person, let alone a machine says something bad about a deity I worship I just say to myself "that's Ok - they just don't understand, or it can be me who is wrong - I respect their right to believe different". Going instantly mad in such a case is a symptom of infantilism and assuming I am such a kind of a person is what feels much more annoying/insulting.
Yeah but they just don't make 'em like they used to.

MBA's took over and cut corners everywhere - sourcing production from subpar isotopes, skimping down how much charge you get in each one, shrinkflation schemes packing less in every bag of amps, particle dilution with off-brand fake leptons... QA was downsized 'till all you got was beta junk that decays in no time. Now they just rent seek that single universal virtual electron, unlocked by keys you're forced to tie to the cloud, and it can be glitchy and pop in and out of existence from time to time especially driving through tunnels. Sorry to hear about your car, try upgrading to the new positron model on the roadmap for next year, they launched the presale NFT last week.

Nah. Like the old saying goes, pick two: fast, cheap, good.

Guess which two home-building companies pick.

I'm an owner-builder, and we contracted out some parts of our build. We were extremely lucky to find some excellent tradespeople. In conversation almost always there were remarks on a lot of tradespeople being on crystal meth!

My wife put in the insulation into the roof and frame walls. She had no experience, just read up about it, worked out how to do it right and did it. The contractors installing the plaster-board were dead impressed, and said it was the best insulation job they'd seen. My wife wasn't racing the clock, or doing it just to get paid. She did it so we have a nice warm house in Winter, and no tradesperson is going to approach your house with the same attitude. All they're thinking about is "beer o'clock".
Sorry in advance for the verbosity, but I really feel like we're crossing paths.

The US doesn't want to start a war with China. The US wants to prevent China's rise. It wants to do this as cheaply and as efficiently as possible, and if it could do it by a cheap cyberop/magic-wand/whathaveyou it would. However it has coarse tools to affect this and no easy, cheap answers. And its willing to do it expensive ways (war) if need be.

It therefore has an array of economic, diplomatic, military, and intelligence tracks attempting to prevent China's rise and raise its costs in a myriad of ways. These all create instability and risk war.

The US is, in its attempt to prevent the rise of China, and China in its attempt to continue to grow in power, in a Thucydides Trap - where conflict between them grows. China - in its role is attempting to grow does so by attempting to minimize the amount of tension and risk of conflict with the United States. Because strategically, that's its win condition. It grows.

The US on the other hand, is attempting to increase as much tension and conflict as it can with China, in order to problematize its rise. This may lead to a war (the "trap" in Thucydides Trap), but it is not inevitable.

The examples are plentiful (and as you've discovered I'm verbose) so probe and we can get into that.

I'll just repeat one example from earlier. Before the US was attempting to prevent China's rise, it's policy with regard to Taiwan was to prevent Taiwan from declaring independence and prevent mainland from attempting to annex. This was to create stability and maintain the status quo. It did this by being ambigious about what it would do in such a scenario. This was the policy for ~50 years and it was successful at stabilizing the region.

Once the US's policy became preventing China's rise, it's policy toward Taiwan has been to claim that it will defend Taiwan. The reason for this policy is to encourage Taiwan to declare independence, and to make China worry about this possibility, and encouraging it to attempt to act before it becomes too late. The US is succeeding in this policy of destabilizing the region.

This amounts to agitating for a war. That is not the same thing as wanting to start a war (e.g. "for wars own sake").

I wonder what you agree with, disagree with about this.

That doesn't work unfortunately, because even though you're skeptical you're still hoping that it might work, which is enough for the placebo effect to kick in.
It leaves a ton of wiggle room actually. Nothing in the story says the Google employees were trespassed and arrested. The case you cited says that the NRLB can’t force an employer to rehire a worker fired for breaking the law.

Furthermore, it says absolutely nothing about the union itself protecting an employee, just the limits of the NRLB in forcing a worker to be rehired.

Otherwise ya… no wiggle room.

OpenAI Slams Musk's 'Revisionist History' in Bid to Toss Lawsuit
Not to sound overly reductive, there seems to be a growing contrast/rift between really good software and stagnant software. In many ways, it seems like large parts of the world are still operating on 1-2 decade old frameworks and systems.

Although imperfect, Linux, Apple and Microsoft seem to stand out ahead as high quality OS frameworks. Amazon’s AWS is of general high quality in cloud as well. Google lately has been a counter-example.

In my world, some of the worst software I see is coming from the gaming industry and I see these as examples of what happens when you have too many cooks in the kitchen, no efficient way to communicate, and a lust for money. So what I think we’re seeing now is the result of a massive consolidation of talent onto increasingly complex products with a goal to squeeze in an ever increasing number of features to ultimately extract the maximum amount of money out of.
There's a store with lots of self-checkout machines and one human cashier, who is trained to ask "Are you paying with cash?" then direct you to machines otherwise.

To assert that plant is not a consciousness life for sure, is dishonest.
The factuality of this article is pretty dodgy.

The C910 core was not launched two years ago, it was launched in July 2019, at the same time as the C906, and just weeks after the RISC-V base ISA (RV64IMAFDC) was officially frozen and published.

THead recently said their customers have shipped billions of these cores. The C906 was available earlier with the AWOL Nezha dev board available in around June 2021. A board ("RVB-ICE") with three C910 cores in a low volume test chip became available in November 2021 or so.

Two mass-production chips with the C910 (quad core TH1520 and 64 core SG2042) became available in test chips in early 2023 and shipped in volume in July 2023 and January 2024.

I'm not sure why the SG2042 would not be regarded as a "server grade" chip. It's similar microarchitecture and cache and clock speed to Amazon's Graviton 1 five years earlier, except with 64 cores instead of 16. Certainly 2nd generation chips will be better, but it's already usable.
Some of this depends on your ecosystem as well... my iPhone has smooth integration with my desktop (iMac)...

YC frequently heralds persistence as the most reliable indicator of future success. However, a closer look at their selection practices reveals a profound contradiction. Despite their public endorsement of this trait, YC often rejects applicants who demonstrate true persistence by reapplying after initial failures. In contrast, they appear to favor individuals with prestigious academic or corporate backgrounds—those who might be perceived as career opportunists lacking deep commitment to their ventures—over genuinely dedicated founders.

This pattern not only questions the sincerity of YC's stated values but also suggests a broader inconsistency. If such a discrepancy exists in their evaluation of persistence, one can reasonably doubt the authenticity of other virtues YC promotes. This insight casts a shadow over the overall integrity of their selection criteria, hinting that what YC publicizes may not always align with their actual priorities.

We have discussed this internally before since we have seen some users delete the metadata in the storage schema and expect the underlying object to be deleted too and if we should convert our entire storage server to just be a Postgres extension.

The source of truth also matters here - if it's the database or the underlying s3 bucket. I think having the underlying storage bucket to be the source of truth would be more useful. In that scenario we would sync the metadata in the database to match what's actually being stored and if we notice metadata of a object missing, we add that in as opposed to deleting the object in storage. This would make it easier for you to bring in your own s3 bucket with existing data and attach it to Supabase storage.
