That's debatable, but I doubt that's the case. The CMA isn't a privacy organization; they deal with monopolies. They're intervening at the behest of other advertisers who are concerned that they'll lose the ability to adequately track users under the Privacy Sandbox proposal. The CMA's chief concern is that everybody is on equal footing.

The alternatives proposed for more private ad targeting have gone through multiple evolutions, including FLoC and Topics, but these were created largely in response to the CMA's objections.

Really great observations - thank you! I already use the method you described - curl is mixed with some amount of gradient to artificially bring color from the bottom layers. It can be observed at the center of the red cyclone in the last YT clip.
Keep in mind - i wasn't going for true fluid mechanics - I just used some of the flow patterns observed in real fluids and layered them on top of each other to give the illusion of a more complex behavior.
As for the sharpening - it is used to counteract the blurring effect of interpolating the color texture every frame.
Was it determined if the "leaked source code" for this thing was real? If so, it showed that the Rabbit R1 didn't have any AI powering it -- all rule-based heuristics (which is... fine, it's not uncommon for rule-based hueristics to be labeled as AI these days).
I am personally much more interested in frame rate upscalers. A proper 60Hz just looks much better then anything. Also would really, really like to see a proper 60Hz animate upscale. Anything in that space just sucks. But when in the rare cases it works it really looks next level.
It’s really the non-employee shareholders that take the value, so instead of comparing with CEO and management, you should instead be asking:

“How to transfer ownership of all publicly traded shares such that they are owned solely by the employees and not non-employee investors”

CEOs and management are simply there to prevent the above from happening, which is why they are paid by the board so much.

The boards are the unelected non-employee owners that need to go away

You don't understand complement and social media.

Content creation is complement to social media, because content (videos, etc.) is shared on social media and in order to get it in front of people, you have to pay.

Platforms and Social media has replaced most of the world's ad surfaces, it's become THE way to get in front of people. Social media is a giant attention market but ultimately functions the same way as amazon: You pay to get your product in front of people.

LLMs commoditize content creation. Fewer people (after layoffs) can create more content. The money you save on laying off people then will be pumped pumped into boosting to get the content in front of people as the auction prices to get the right eyeballs go up due to increased competition.

> you can just stamp your foot down and insist on physicalism (and thereby dismiss whole swathes of the philosophical literature on consciousness), but from Chalmers' point of view you'd just be begging the important questions

And to Dennett (and me), as a physicalist, Chalmers's claim that zombies are a coherent concept is begging the important questions. So if we're going to take that approach, we're just at an unresolvable impasse.

However, physicalism is not just a doctrinaire assumption. It's everybody's default assumption when dealing with anything that matters in practical terms. If Chalmers has a problem with his car, he's going to assume there is some physical reason for it and take it to a mechanic. He's not going to wonder if his car has lost some non-physical essence of carhood and become a zombie car. And cognitive science is taking a similar approach to consciousness, finding physical processes that underlie various conscious activities of people's minds (as well as unconscious ones). Dennett simply said that he expects that that process is sufficient to explain consciousness.

Chalmers disagrees (as do many others), saying that no matter how many discoveries cognitive science makes, it will never fully explain consciousness. In the end, though, neither Chalmers nor Dennett nor any other philosopher is going to resolve that issue just by making arguments. Ultimately it's going to come down to whether, once we have enough cognitive science under our belts, our intuitions about what that science is telling us will change or not. Particularly if, once we have enough cognitive science under our belt, we are able to build robots that are behaviorally indistinguishable from human beings, that tell us they are conscious and describe their conscious experiences the same way humans do. Some like Chalmers (or Searle) might still remain holdouts even then, saying that those robots are actually zombies, unlike us humans (because, in Searle's terms, our human brains have biological "causal powers" that the robots' brains don't), but those claims will seem a lot less plausible in the face of the actual existence of such robots.

Or perhaps it will turn out that we are never able to build such robots, and cognitive science ends up hitting blank walls where it is simply unable to account for some aspects of human consciousness, in which case our intuitions will go the other way, making Chalmers and Searle seem a lot more plausible and Dennett seem a lot less so. We'll see. I know which way I'm betting (and which way Dennett did), but we'll see.
The two quotes from experts there are particularly good:
String theory is spectacular. Many string theorists are wonderful. But the track record for qualitatively correct statements about the universe is really garbage,” said Nima Arkani-Hamed, a theoretical physicist at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey.

" In my view, using today’s AI to calculate the details of string compactifications is such a waste of time that I fear that a future Terminator will come to our present to take revenge for the merciless, useless exploitation of its grandparents."

C-suite compensation, especially stock-based, is often in part to ensure management loyalty to shareholders vs other things. Worker board membership means management once again has competing loyalties, but now de jure. That means it is not worth it to the share holders to pay the extra "ransom compensation", in addition to workers probably outright being against it. I would thus expect C-suite compensation to go down.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there's nothing actually legally preventing a Mondragon-type industrial co-op like this from existing in the US, right?

That it's not so common is an interesting question: does it get outcompeted by your standard corporation? Would people rather generally work as employees than take on risk as owners? Something else? I think in a co-op like this, employees would still be eligible for food stamps, and there's nothing preventing them from "decimating" a local economy, either.

I think this is "socialist", and it seems to be working, and everyone is happy, so more power to them. But my understanding is since there's nothing preventing people from setting this up, the "Red Scare" was not a bunch of people going, "hey, change the laws so me and my buddies can set up a co-op". Like, what's the actual policy change desired? "Let folks who want to run corporations and work for them do so, and let folks who want to operate in a co-op do so?" No, because that's our current situation.
I'm thinking the most successful "automated exploration" so far has been Catagolue's method: simply generate a whole lot of random-soup initial configurations, run them until they settle, and then poke through the ashes looking for interesting stuff:

In the world of trading, Mondays represent a fresh start, a new opportunity to analyze markets, spot potential trades, and make strategic moves.

There’s a certain thrill in the unpredictability of the market, and traders thrive on the challenge.

While others may see Mondays as the start of the workweek, for traders, it’s the beginning of a world of possibilities.

So, it’s true-traders are different. They possess a unique mindset that sees Mondays not as a day to dread, but as a day to eagerly embrace.

It’s a world where the passion for trading transcends the typical view of work and leisure.

Whether it’s analyzing charts, exploring new strategies, or simply the excitement of the market’s opening bell, traders find joy in the opportunities that each Monday brings.

To all traders wishing you all the best for this coming week.

Expense doesn't factor in for some people. Running Plex/Jellyfin/Emby/etc + arr's can be many times more expensive (even in the long run) than just paying monthly. The UI/UX is a huge reason.

With a home media server you get:

Consistent UI/controls

* All content in one app

* Download content to any device without restriction for offline viewing

* Instant, full quality playback on LAN

* Ability to screen capture/record segments of a show to share (not for pirating but for memes and the like) *

* Old/unpopular/"censored" content is always available. **

* I maintain that blacking out screen capture by streaming services is one of the stupidest and most self-sabotaging things they could do. Why these services don't build in meme/annotation tools or clip export is beyond me. You have people ready and willing to advertise your show _for free_ and you cut off your nose to spite your face.

** No I don't think blackface is ok to do but anyone who can't see that 30 Rock is making fun of people doing blackface is missing the point completely. Also covering up what was said/done in the past does not prevent us from making the same mistakes again. It's a white-washing (sometimes quite literally) that benefits no one.

That's absurd. I think anybody is aware that it is far superior to e.g. compress in the frequency domain than to down sample your image. If you don't believe me just compare a JPEG compressed image with the same image of the same size compressed with down sampling. You will notice a literal night and day difference.

Down sampling is a bad way to do compression. It makes no sense to do NN reconstruction on that if you could have compressed that image better and reconstructed from that data.

For anyone still wondering why wouldn't I just write css? Because my codebase is littered with orphaned dead css. You can try to use strict naming conventions to connect it to the component it was meant for, but in practice you end with more css, dead css, and you have to read two source code files: component and css.
In the US, the "the gaps in power" have very little to do with renewables. They have to do with deferred maintenance and an unwillingness to maintain existing infrastructure.

> But that limits what you can do considerably, to the point that an off-the-rack Juniper or CSCO or whatever probably has more features than you can do here without writing your own code to hook into the mellanox sdk?

I mean, I'm not touching any mellanox sdk here, I am using the a very similar stack that someone on a "software router" would use, on a switch that can automatically accelerate it to 800G+ throughputs, while hitting a 60W power target.

You can hit some of those performance/power numbers in vendor hardware like Juniper/Cisco/Arista, however you have to also put up with their software, I (and others in my group of peers) have not had great experiences with vendor software, and in this setup I am able to patch/fix the software on my own terms.

If there is a security vuln in one section, I can fix that, and call it a day, I won't be forced to upgrade parts of the system I do not want to. I cannot do this with Juniper/Cisco/Arista always.

There is no use case, because it is a stupid idea. Downscaling then reconstructing is a stupid idea for exactly the same reasons why downscaling for compression is a bad idea.

The issue isn't NN reconstruction, but that you are reconstructing the wrong data.

>I fail to see how this is a counter point.

Well, that's probably because you are constantly arguing different points that aren't necessarily germane to the discussion. Remember, this was about your point that wealthy people build their wealth by suppressing education in the general populace. So this is a counter-point in that it is possible to build wealth by conscientious behavior instead. There is some research on the latter, but really only conjecture and false narratives on the former.

Wealth inequality and the state of democracy are digressions from that point. I don't think I made any statements about what level of wealth inequality is healthy for the stability of a society, let alone a moral argument for it, nor did I make any claims about democracy. Again, this just comes across as you having an axe to grind, and you'll shoehorn in talking points without addressing the central claim.
