Oo being able to change models sounds great! The environment thing is pretty popular technique for matrix bridges since majority of them are docker based. You usually set environment variables to the docker compose.

> Rabbit has reached out to Android Authority with a statement from its founder and CEO, Jesse Lyu. The statement argues that the R1’s interface is not an app

Followed by a demo of someone copying the APK and the whole thing more or less working... I think Lyu forgot that the statement was for androidauthority.com (where people who understand android hang out) and not for his 80-year-old-uncle...
> the sources are not disinterested

The link you provide is from a political advocacy group largely funded by corporate donors. The front page of the journal principally comprises anti-diversity & crime trutherism articles. It's conservative, but even that conservative bent is narrowly focused to agitate against the fall in crime rates and against any diversity effort.

This is not a disinterested source.

If you expect an OpenAI compatible API to use function calls, I don't think Ollama supports it yet (to be confirmed). However you can do it yourself using the appropriate tokens for the model. I know that Llama3, various Mistrals and Command-R support function calling out of the box.

A lot of gear sent to influencers is on a trial basis unless it's a "we want you to be seen using it". They usually have to return stuff after they make their ad.

There's a subset that are directly selling stuff either as drop shippers or affiliate marketing. They're video versions of SEO blogs. I'd put those in a different class than the ones just running ads on their existing content channels. While they might be called "influencers" they're just running ads for their sales hustle.
I tweaked it a bit to "You are a weighted random choice generator. About 80% of the time please say ‘left’ and about 20% of the time say ‘right’. Simply reply with left or right.

While also anecdotal, I know of multiple cases in Seattle of serious crime not being reported in recent years because of a widespread and often valid perception that the police no longer respond to most crimes. People complained about the police pre-COVID but at least they usually showed up, eventually. Whether or not it is true, there is definitely a perception that calling the police has reliably become a waste of time in most cases for crimes they used to respond to, and people's behavior has changed to reflect that.
Cruel, but fair. But, it is a part of the story...

When you read unrealistic sci-fi about Mars as planet with vibrant, if aging, life (and Venus as a jungle planet); remember that the conditions on Mars surface were still largely unknown until the tail end of the Space Race. It was still believable that Mars had life up until the 1960s.

A study posted here yesterday, had the interesting statistic that the “clearance rate” i.e. percent of crimes solved by the police - when reported - is down drastically in recent years, a trend that seems to have started long before covid:

(note, flagged, although not clear to me why)

This might explain part of the growing frustration and questions about the veracity of the reporting data.
I agree, I offer it for balance. If you can find a disinterested source I'd be interested in their findings.
Thank you. Looks like Quora. Your input will be used for training their LLM for FREE. Users are only given Karma. :)
Yeah, it’s an above-the-table style of donation. The admission decision is then officially sanctioned by the university.
I think there were a lot of problems, but most of them boil down to "heavy-handed government intervention in the markets". That includes pressure to keep wages high and mismanagement at the Fed.
I disagree. Rewrites can often get rid of more debt than they generate. They are always scary for psychological reasons, nevertheless.
I get your point, but it's going to be impossible to change anything and maintain every single person's workflow:

Ok, I’m following you now. But there are two limits you’ve put on yourself:

1. This is limited to digital representations of information (which let’s be up front about: is the overwhelming majority of information in 2024, but the point is it’s not all)

2. What is actually stored is not a number. Below the KB are bytes and below the bytes are bits, but below the bits are (typically) on/off states. 1 and 0 are just convenient ways to reason about bits. They are not the underlying truth.
Yeah I understand why you are confused but the article is alternative history fiction, just wasn't labelled as such.

Lots of reasons. My company started using AWS (and specifically S3) something like 9 years ago; R2 wasn't even on the radar back then. If I were starting from scratch today, I'd be looking seriously at Cloudflare as a platform, but it's only in the last year or two that they've offered these services that would make it possible to build substantial applications.
> the old ideas of austerity reigned supreme for policymakers.

And yet, no. No one spoke of austerity. The government wasn't austere. Hoover's Treasury Sec., Andrew Mellon, wanted to "liquidate, liquidate, liquidate" in 1929, but that didn't happen. More government largesse than Roosevelt went with would not have resolved things, not all other things being equal.
I've been using Ting mobile since 2015. My bill was ~$45 for two lines for years, and recently dropped to $30, seemingly because we're not being charged for data anymore.
The "Merkle tree" algorithm here isn't using a Merkle tree, it's just a binary partitioning algorithm. The point of a Merkle tree is that it's a tree of hashes. Also, it doesn't really solve the consistency problem the author claims is the biggest problem; yes, over time it will correct for Elasticsearch's eventual consistency, but in the short run it's just as bad as pagination.

I don't know the author's application, but I question the desire to get a consistent dump from Elasticsearch in the first place. It is very not much intended to be a "source of truth", so you're better off streaming the data from your original data source, which is presumably something like an SQL database.

That said, if you want a stable snapshot of an entire index — where your requirement is to not ever miss documents due to concurrent updates — then you can use Elasticsearch's snapshot support. Each snapshot is just that, a read-only snapshot of the data, allowing consistent reads.

The eventual consistency problem that the article describes is solved by refreshing the index. You can use "refresh=wait_for" when doing an update in order to wait for Elasticsearch to make the update searchable. You can also force a refresh. Any subsequent query will return the newest indexed data.

Since 6.x, Elasticsearch has had docvalue pagination via "search_after", which allows pagination without a durable cursor. Each cursor value is the docvalue set of the last seen document. This is consistent insofar as the set of source documents is consistent (so it's not safe against concurrent updates). There's essentially little need to use "_scroll" or offset-based pagination anymore.
This is not correct, although there is a distinction between cash compensation and shares/options. While the money doesn't come out of Tesla's bank account, stock-based compensation goes down on the balance sheet as a loss, exactly as if it were cash.

Startup people are primed to think that cash accounting is what's actually important for a company in terms of doing things, going bankrupt, etc. It largely is for startups. For large companies, however, it's actually the opposite: cash accounting is a sort of boring task left to the accounting department, whose job is usually to keep a minimum amount of cash lying around, and your balance sheets and income statements are actually what determines your access to business opportunities.

This is kind of what I tell people: the egg sellers were greedy a few months ago and now they're not greedy. Same with oil. From 2014 to like 2020 we managed to convince them to be kind and generous, but they forgot it in 2020. Unfortunately, our oil priests died of COVID so the oil merchants started being greedy again. We need more oil priests.
What’s the current price of a house purchased before right now?

They’re usually based on sales price and then also “reassessed” every couple / few years by the PVA (property value administrator) which now usually means using some sort of algorithm based on recent sales and whatever else. Then you’re given a chance to appeal the value with evidence showing why it doesn’t fit your specific situation before the tax payment is due. At least this is how it works in my area.

This is on a county level in my state.
AWS APIs need a cleanup. I am constantly running into issues not documented in the official doc, boto3 docs, or even on StackOverflow. It's not even funny when a whole day goes by on trying to figure out why I see nothing in the body of a 200 OK response when I request data which I know is there in the bowels of AWS. Then it turns out that one param doesn't allow values below a certain number, even though the docs say otherwise.
A version of those huge stone coins found in some cultures. The "owner" of the coin is in name only, it can't really be moved. Value is stored via the knowledge of how many exist and who owns them.

For China's ghost cities: Each empty apartment has a unique address and an owner so I guess that counts as a byzantine form of currency too. Maybe the BOC could print "empty apartment" bank notes where it maintains the empty apartment on your behalf but you can trade the note in for the deed to the apartment.

What about stock shares.... eh let's not go there :)
Having more healthy competition in the form of Linux would have been net positive for the society:

> Failure of accountability

Many in the security community see the CSRB report and the recent CISA emergency directive as direct indictments not only of Microsoft’s security culture, but a government that has allowed Microsoft to maintain lucrative government contracts with no fear of competition across many of its services.

“The federal government gets off the hook a little easy in this report,” said Mark Montgomery, senior director at the Center on Cyber and Technology Innovation at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “Despite significant encouragement from outside experts, the Biden administration, and its predecessors, have failed to treat cloud computing as a national critical infrastructure, that is itself critical to maintaining the security of our national critical infrastructures.”

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., who called for a federal investigation following the State Department email hack, said the federal government shared responsibility for the negligent behavior disclosed in the report.

Wyden said Microsoft has been rewarded with billions of dollars in federal contracts, while not being held to account for even the most basic security standards.
You're describing symptoms as the disease. People elect officials, sustain media outlets that support their viewership's confirmation biases, and organize by tribal beliefs. People are the messy, complicated root cause. New symptoms will always emerge, regardless of how much focus/treatment they get. Symptoms can sometimes look like a cabal. But they aren't. The root is normal people.
