I agree with most of what you said, but as someone working in the security field, I know enough adults that I'd suspect doing something just for the heck of it. Not maliciously for any particular gain, but for the hack value -- assuming it's not deemed too easy to pull off and thus not interesting to try

Overall, of course, yeah I agree people generally want to do good, and doubly so in a community like Gentoo

You don't use translation engines? As someone living in a country whose language they're still learning, I can't tell you how helpful translations from DeepL are. They're not flawless, but it's at a level that I come across polite and well enough towards someone like a prospective landlord or government agency, and my language skills good enough that I can see where it got the meaning wrong (so long as it's not some subtlety, but then it tries to be formal so that's also not often an issue). I'm sure there's more examples but just in general, I really do see their benefit even if I also see the concerns

IANAL. But I believe it's not that easy. First it would have to be a foregone conclusion that you had contraband on your phone before merely locking it could be construed as obstruction. Then they'd have to demonstrate that you locked the phone at a time when you had reason to believe that you might be coerced to unlock it because it was a foregone conclusion that you had contraband. Are those likely circumstances? Probably not, though it will happen to someone, sometime, but when it does it will be because they did something stupid or because the cops overstepped their authority (in the latter case the process is the punishment, and it wouldn't be the cops getting punished).

I don't see why the police couldn't keep an iphone in evidence for months while they attempt exploits to gain access. That's already happened right? I'm guessing that law enforcement will continue to push for companies to install backdoors for them in their devices as well.
We already had 'minor planets' (asteroids). Planets are a continuum, from small rocky or icy ones the size of large moons, to "terrestrial" ones, to ice giants and gas giants.

Anyone have any informed guesstimations as to where we might expect a 400b parameter model for llama 3 to land benchmark wise and performance wise, relative to this current llama 3 and relative to GPT-4?

I understand that parameters mean different things for different models, and llama two had 70 b parameters, so I'm wondering if anyone can contribute some guesstimation as to what might be expected with the larger model that they are teasing?
It doesn't know. Hair cycles are constant. If you didn't cut it, it would eventually fall out as it is replaced by another hair. It grows to the point where the epithelial column contracts and starts forcing it out. This is based on environment, nutrition and genetics and varies from person to person and is affected by everything from stress to blood flow.

You can observe this on many people by looking at hair miniaturization of people who have MBP or similar -- the follicle constricts in size and the resulting hair that comes out is progressively shorter in length and diameter until the follicle is so constricted that it no longer produces hair.
Hopefully when we go to Mars we leave cockroaches like you behind.

I created this app with the philosophy of 'Ichi-go ichi-e,'

every session is a one-time opportunity that is uniquely yours.

your life is unique, your time here pend with the App is unique, the card you picked is unique, and the generated AI read is unique.

there is no additional data passed in, just you question, your card picked and the answer generated.

treat it as an unique encounter for you in the moment. The time you spend with it already sparks value.

The Gaza Genocide did not begin in 1948. The Gaza genocide started on Oct 7 2023. The Nakba refers to ethnic cleansing, not genocide. So the Genocide has been ongoing for 6 months, while ethnic cleansing campaign following occupation and apartheid has been ongoing for 76 years. This why people say something like: “It’s been 194 days and 76 years”, the former timespan is referring to the genocide while the latter the ethnic cleansing campaign.

Also to clarify, I was stating that the Nazis didn’t start their genocide by killing every Jewish person on sight, the atrocities gradually got worse over time. By the time of the 1936 Berlin Olympics the atrocities were well known and it was known what the Nazis wanted to do with Jewish people. Even still the international community failed to boycott the Olympics giving the Nazis reassurance that they could get away with the atrocities up until then, an possibly more.

So far the genocide in Gaza has the potential to be worse, and the international community consistently fails to stop it. Presumably, this is the goal of the Zionist government in Israel.
Because they're claiming it's a computer, even though that term implies that it's a mechanism by which this all happens automatically.

We already have a term for the machine where you have to reset it yourself after every calculation: a calculator. Hence the original comment.
Absolutely! That was covered in the tweet link. If you're suggesting they're lying*, I'm happy to extract it and check.

I've looked up to you a lot over last year on LLMs btw, just vagaries of online communication, can't tell if you're ignoring the tweet & introducing me to idea of system prompts, or you're suspicious it changed recently.

You just entered the mystical world of undocumented browser behavior where every browser does its own thing. The button looks ok on chrome, but safari's borders are more round making that look still off. You won't back down, and take on this challenge, make it look great on chrome and safari too. Yay!

From OPs:

>only according to the law "might is right".

And your:

>Any de jure claim that Taiwan as a whole was effectively administered by mainland China would have to fall somewhere between 1867 and Taiwan being ceded to Japan in 1895

Historic association has little bearing on "settled" international law and is useful justification in so much as determining whether something feels right or not according to whichever end of propaganda you subscribe to. TW is recognized as Chinese territory of the "One" China at UN according to UN (and vice versa with PRC as Chinese territory) post Resolution 2758... actual "international law" rule based order types like to wank about. This alone supercedes all the insipid recent rationales trying to delegitimize via historic association because it quite literally doesn't matter when in terms of international law, TW as Chinese (though not necessarily CCP) territory is legally clear, hence various pro-TW countries tries to square the circle of their foreign policy by adopting their domestic "One" China policies. But at the end of the day, UN is the international law framework most of the world operates around, and at UN there is One China represented by PRC post Resolution 2758, while also no ratification exist for armistic of the ongoing Chinese Civil War that either side can resume at any time.

Actual international law is why US has far flung territories they spent a few years on during WW2, and then became US possessions in the post war order. "History" has nothing to do with it. Being legally recognized at UN does, which is why US tried so hard to spike the deliberations with a US draft that tried to add ambiguities by enabling ROC to continue occupy UN functions to present ambiguity of 2 Chinas, but was ultimately rejected for the Albanian draft that kicked all ROC representation out. It's also why all the latest (failed) efforts by US think tanks trying to get TW UN representation is based off attacking Resolution 2758 instead of the equally DOA previous attacks on historic grounds. TW is Chinese territory because the international law already states it is. All online TW seperate country hur hur is strawman wanking pretending TW is not already legally Chinese territory according to international law and how it shouldn't be because history, when... it already is irregardless of history.

haha thanks, I will put it on my list :)
For me (BEV formal owner, formal, since the real owner is the OEM) there are few arguments against BEV that will keep their adoption slow:

- first of all they are connected crapware on wheel, the formal human owner do not really own nothing. Oh, I have NOTHING against having GSM connectivity inside a car, but I want to control it, so instead of a crapplication bound to a crappy unreliable services hosted by the OEM I want an open API/website served by my car, directly accessible with dynamic DNS/my DNS, I do choose how to roll out updated, I read what updates do and so on. No connected commercial software should be allowed to roll. This last sentence is not a thing most people count, but they feel the crapware crappyness and they dislike and they do not trust it;

- for the material operation life (no matter if you re-sell the car quickly or not) they cost too much, oh, maybe not in China, but surely here in EU. Being built with far less parts, far less fine precision needed per part, far easier industrial assembly it's hard to justify BEV prices because of lithium or crapware costs...

- no real "new deal" integration, I do have p.v. at home, why the hell I can't buy an inverter with a simple DC out for 400V LFP car battery since I can buy 400V LFP stationary battery, DC charged from the p.v. inverter? Why wasting so much energy in a double conversion PVsideDC→CarInverterACtoDC? Why I can't use car battery to DC supply my inverter to power my home if I want so? Why only VERY recently CCS have set the first bi-direction DC standard and still no BEV implement it? Why not offer a 230Vac socket in the car, since the car have a V2L function only bound to the car charging port, witch do not allow operation when the car move (like simply powering a fridge in the car)? Most people would not use such options since most still have no PV, have no need to use 230Vac stuff in the car etc but selling them and advertising them would push people to see BEV as different beast than nice-to-drive but expensive limited range cars.

Personally I'm happy enough of my choice because WFH with PV in a mountain area the fuel economy is sound enough to buy a BEV, but well... That's not much a common scenario EVEN IF it should be, since ~30% of jobs can be done from home, and those who can have no reasons to be in a flat/apartment instead of a home. Especially to push energy efficiency in new constructions.

> Palm oil is the choice of cooking oil in restaurants

That's interesting, do you have any source for that?
Is that in US?

I know Palm oil is used in food production because it's neutral in taste, easy to process at industrial scale and overall stable in its characteristics.

As a European, using Palm oil as cooking oil sounds crazy because it actually provides no benefit in a kitchen at all...
> "But today’s A.I. systems can pass the Turing Test with flying colors, and researchers have had to come up with new, harder evaluations."

I disagree. Just look at the exact definition of the original Turing test:

> https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Turing_test&oldid...

I do claim that a trained judge when confronted with two entities (1 person, 1 computer/AI) can easily come up with questions that enable him to distinguish the person from the AI in most cases (for inspirations just look at older HN discussions about hallucinations, or what AIs do in "unexpected situations" such as "nonsense texts" such as "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" etc.)
>Nanny state is a nanny state.

In my opinion this is a thought stopping cliche that throws the concept of differences of scale out the window, which is a catastrophic choice to make when engaging in comparative assessments of policies in different countries. Again just my opinion here but I believe statements such as these should be understood as a form of anti-intellectualism.
So hairs are actually excretions, like sweat and shit.
This makes it sound like the designation is latent, even if rejected by committee right now. They acknowledge an anthropogenic "event" is under way but aren't admitting the anthropocene because of its recency and unclear boundaries.

But the boundaries of other epochs are also only estimated and didn't unfold completely overnight, not even for the K-Pg impactor, probably the most sudden change in the geological record. It still took thousands of years for the consequences to shake out into a steadier state.

If we were studying the current transition hundreds of thousands or millions of years from now starting with zero knowledge, the disappearance of megafauna (ongoing and has been for tens of thousands of years), the large scale transformation of forests to grassland, the invasion of species to every corner of the earth, the mass extinction most severely in the tropics and oceans, the appearance of so much carbon, plastic, and other pollution in the geologic record, and the disappearance of glaciers (tens of thousands of years to go there, even in worst case scenarios) would appear virtually instantaneous. There'd be error bounds on it but eventually no disagreement that the Earth took a corner.

So the argument starts to sound a bit like denial. But that's OK. We've been through lots of denial around whether extinction happens, if mass extinction happens, if the K-Pg impact happened, if it caused a mass extinction, or whether continents move around. All settled now.
They just said laws, not privacy - the EU has introduced the "world's first comprehensive AI law". Even if it doesn't stop release of these models, it might be enough that the lawyers need extra time to review and sign off that it can be used without Meta getting one of those "7% of worldwide revenue" type fines the EU is fond of.

It's a dense one, zuck confirms this a couple minutes into the interview posted in this thread
While I agree with your general slant, it's not correct to say that evolution can't act quickly. Evolution can act, and does act, slightly faster than a single generation. Populations change rapidly, and the success, failure, life and death of individuals and their guiding behaviors, change with it. The introduction of online dating, for example, has already caused evolutionary changes in our species. Only time can tell if these changes are going to last. Just because we haven't yet generally grown thumbs adapted for interacting with iPhones doesn't mean that the more subtle changes haven't happened.
Same and same. It broke my heart a little to read that this essayist got diagnosed at age 11... it's bad enough as an adult, but I can't even imagine dealing with it as a little kid :(
You've got something wonky going on with that query plan for the 2nd partition by attempt. In particular the seq scan on tasks to do the `(tasks.id = eligible_tasks.id)` hash join seems odd. The filter on queued status in `CTE eligible_tasks` (and not in the last join) also seems weird. Is that plan for the same query in the article?

If you add an index on `group_key, id WHERE status = 'queued'` and remove the 2nd `WHERE tasks."status" = 'QUEUED'` (I believe that's redundant?), you might get a better plan. You'd want something to make sure you're not preferring one group_key as well.

I think you should be able to solve your problem with workers having zero tasks by moving the LIMIT into the second CTE?

It's also useful in practice to have something like a worker_id and timestamp and not just set status to RUNNING in case a worker gets stuck/dies and you need to unclaim the work.
I propose a new flat electron theory. They do in fact orbit the nuclei in a simple orbit. It's just that Maxwell's equations don't apply at those length scales. Electron tunneling is a conspiracy designed to hide the truth.

This is of course a sarcastic aside, but I have to admit even toying with the idea of throwing out observations you don't like feels really good. I see why for some unbinding their beliefs from the constraints of reality is so appealing.

Payne was required as a part of his parole to reveal the passcode/password to his electronic devices. He had already told, when asked, the officer the color and location of his phone, then when asked for the passcode he denied the phone was his. That's when the officer physically forced him to unlock it with his thumb (this is the contentious part in the case).

The fourth amendment challenge against the search starts on page 10, and the fifth amendment challenge on page 21. The fact that he was a parolee substantially factors into the decision regarding the fourth amendment challenge.

Forcing me to apply my thumb to a fingerprint reader is, to my mind, no different than forcing me to empty my pockets to provide a key that unlocks something the court has ordered be unlocked.

Parolees have restrictions placed on them as part of their release, including the right of police to inspect things on their person and property. If parolees find those conditions burdensome, they are more than welcome to reject parole and finish their sentence as it was originally imposed.

To be clear: California home owners insurance.

California has "fire season," not a season I ever wanted in my life. I wonder how much this is actually kind of an issue of global warming without being called that. My understanding is fires are getting worse on the west coast thanks to climate change.
insurance is a scam anyways. the only reason it works is because nothing is supposed to happen. howevever, shit has been happening (thanks to weak enforcement of laws) and their easy profit margins are being lost because asset values have balooned
