It's a cool idea. The results seem a little off, though.

I chose a full-body workout for a 52-y/o man (me), intermediate level focusing on muscle gain. The program suggests squats for 3x3-5, bench for 2x3-5, hip thrusts for 3x3-5, chin-ups for 3x4-8 etc. Those seem more like strength building rep ranges to me. Then weirdly, I get deadlifts for 3x6-10, which is odd programming for deadlifts. In total, I have 8 exercises for a total of 24 sets, which seems like it would take me a solid couple of hours to do. It's also massively focused on glutes and hamstrings for some reason, I have squats, hip thrusts, deadlifts and nordic curls in the same workout. That just seems like an unreasonable amount of volume.

Depends on whether the story is dramatic enough to report it. Video of small-time property crimes that would have otherwise been ignored by the media are now getting attention. If someone stole a package from a porch in the 90s, nobody would have covered it. Now, if you have a dramatic doorbell video, it'll get attention.

I agree that's the theory, I disagree that it actually is what would happen in practice. E.g., if the government stops guaranteeing the loans I seriously doubt banks will accept "future earning potential" as collateral. So I disagree that it's actually collateral (your initial claim). The real collateral is the govt promise to back up the loan.

So the question still stands: if the government no longer guarantees the loans, what is the proposed solution to prevent banks from no longer lending to students?

Crime reporting is down too, especially in cities which have progressive prosecutors and significant police staffing problems such as Portland, OR, Pittsburgh, PA, and Burlington, VT. I'll wait for the 2023 National Criminal Victimization Survey before declaring victory on this one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Crime_Victimization_S...

That survey gathers data from participants directly instead of relying on reports collected via law enforcement. As of the 2022 report, the latest period for which such data is available, violent victimization was rising:

>You claimed that courts do not store documents about cases in SQL databases (e.g. case number, defendant name, their plea, etc.) but that's wrong, they do.

That's not what I said at all and it's absurd for you to even pretend otherwise considering how many times I pointed it out to you in our short correspodence.

>I have more direct experience than you do - and startups already exist that do this very thing with LLMs, but go ahead, have fun on the wrong side of history making false claims and straw manning arguments

You do not. I'm an attorney, you've clearly never used Lexis or WestLaw and have no idea how attorneys actually do their work based upon everything you've written in this thread. That's what has been pointed out to you, not that you don't know SQL, but that you clearly have no idea what attorneys do, why they do it, how they do it. And yet you are insisting that this tool will be something that facilitates the work of an attorney while demonstrating complete ignorance about that actual work.

>You claimed that courts do not store documents about cases in SQL databases (e.g. case number, defendant name, their plea, etc.) but that's wrong, they do.

LOL, do you think these are the "facts" about cases that attorneys need? Get a f**king grip.
Isn't that a case where the interesting behavior is from a new piece someone programmed onto the side of the core LLM functionality?

In other words, it's still true that large language models can't do probability, so someone put in special logic to have the language model guess at a computer language to do the thing instead.
I have a question for people who know how American housing works. Are property taxes based on current price? If so, who sets current price? Also does property tax fill the coffers of local municipalities or the state?

And on top of that, Debian's bug tracker is where development happens (as opposed to Ubuntu's, which is a black hole). And packages that cannot be built, get a bug report BEFORE the release on Debian, but are silently not included in the release on Ubuntu. Ubuntu is "Debian with extra crap and extra bugs".

In the UK you can adjust or remove covenants by paying a large fee to the original covenant holder. The legal theory is that the land without the covenant would have been worth more when it was originally sold, so you pay that difference. In this case finding the original covenant holder seems like it would be tricky, but in the UK most covenants were issued by councils [local government] when council-owned housing was sold off, so you'd pay the council to adjust the covenant. Our house has a covenant against keeping farm animals which I've not felt the need to remove.
There's nothing outrageous about predicting that a country with a very low fertility rate will experience population decline over time. The point of these predictions is to consider the consequences of maintaining current policies.

Sorry for not having this made clearer (we'll fix this part of the post): the gotcha is not that AWS does not honor range requests, it's that canceling those will still add the full range of bytes to your egress bill (and this can add up quickly) although no bytes (or much fewer) have been transferred.
>A explanation is visible to users on each comment and story, mod actions show up in a public log, and the site's source is available for any remaining questions on how things happened. There are users who store everything as it comes in via RSS or mailing list mode and call out mod mistakes as they see them.

None of that means anything if I can't see for myself what the purported infraction was. The most important piece of the puzzle is missing! "It's in the RSS feed" -- oh that's so helpful, I'll be sure to look for that in the locked filing cabinet in the disused lavatory, the one with the sign on the door saying "beware of the leopard".

It's a hallmark of a free and democratic society that criminal and civil proceedings are generally public, when someone is punished, we can easily look up what they were punished for. Obviously software forum arguments aren't as important or dramatic as legal disputes, but we imitate in the small what we admire in the large. It is disturbing to me that one side of this culture war calls itself "democratic", but acts like a Star Chamber.
Local and state level crime reporting tracks the FBI's data though. Also the Daily Caller is (as you might expect from a partisan source) spinning the data pretty badly. Here's the actual report they linked to justify that "42.4% increase": https://bjs.ojp.gov/document/cv22.pdf

Look at the chart. It's been basically basically flat, with some noise, for the past 16-17 years. But indeed, there's a fairly big noise bump at the very last data point. (Or alternatively you could look at 2022 as a return to the mean following two years of depressed crime statistics during the pandemic?)

It's cherry-picking, basically.

I think that a better way (which is protocol-independent, and does not require a web browser, or even necessarily an internet connection), would be a kind of payment specification which is placed inside of a order file. This payment specification is encrypted and digitally signed and can be processed by the bank or credit card company or whatever is appropriate; it includes the sender and recipient, as well as the amount of money to be transferred (so that they cannot steal additional money), and possibly a hash of the order form. A payment may also be made by payphones or by prepaid phone cards (even if you do not have a bank account nor a credit card), in which case you may be given a temporary single-use key which can be used with this payment specification data; if you do not do this, then you can use the credit card instead.

From your first link, Table 1, I see that the United States EPA regulates chlorine to 0.2-4 mg/L. The upper bound is lower than the rest of countries with regulations. Some countries - including the European Union, United Kingdom, and Ireland - appear to have no regulations at all.

Residual levels show 3 mg/L of chlorine in the United States which is higher than most other countries (Singapore, and to a lesser extent, Canada, excluded.) What I don't understand is why you see these levels, which are considered safe by most health agencies, as a cause for concern. As another commenter pointed out, the chlorine exists to ensure the water is safe to drink.

How do you partake in the real world without it warping your personality? Being scammed of your virtual items is not that different to being scammed of real money once you are an adult. Growing up with multiplayer games, Roblox can be categorized as an immersive sim with a virtual adult world inside of it that can teach kids a great deal about life. I myself got interested in money from Runescape, where I was scammed and scammed others. Since you brought an example I have my own, I ended a friendship over Runescape because I trusted my friend and he stole all my items. I cried for a week but then I moved on and learned to identify bad actors. You choose to shelter your kid, and that's okay because you are the parent.
From these pictures, and others I've seen, it seems that the last people still routinely wearing masks are leftist activists. Is there some political statement behind this, or are they trying to hide their identity?
Haha. It indeed seems a bit overkill. I can image you don't want you animations to be stuttering while downloading and installing tens of packages so Rust seems like a good solution. The advantage of Flutter is that you have full control of the UI no matter which device you use. Why not use GNOME? Maybe GNOME only works good after everything is installed? They might have good reasons but maybe they got sick of C++ and GNOME and wanted to try something else.

My friend got robbed in NYC. The only reason he called the police was to get a police report for insurance reasons. They came 8 hours after he called. Obviously they're not going to do anything about it. If it wasn't needed for insurance, there would be absolutely no reason to call them.
That has nothing to do with having exceptions, Rust just has a good type system (something go doesn't have).

But again, handling an error doesn't necessarily prevent bugs. Just because you handled an error doesn't mean the error won't happen in Prod. It just means when it does, you wrote a message for it or custom behavior. Which could be good, or it might be functionally as effective as returning a stack traces message. It depends on the situation.

For what it's worth, I've never seen people not handle errors that the user could do anything with. If it's relevant to the user, we handle it.
I'm surprised that there is no mention of Operations Research in this article.

I'm actually curious if any business use Operations Research for real, vs. managers just guessing. I mean do something like Linear Programming to optimize profits based on various constraints.

I DO believe people are calling the police less for crime, even violent crime.

However, how do you have an official source of "I decided not to call the cops".
