Professor Megalow's Dinosaur Bones: Richard Owen and Victorian literature
Right, and I think the key here is that we should be ready to see key elements we believe are necessary for conscious to be distributed across numerous systems, rather than uncovering a singular unitary thing. And so it's not a matter of "oh, this study only found XXX but it didn't find consciousness".

But it might be that the process of coming to full empirical understanding is that we take an idea that used to be black-boxed, and open it up to find numerous particular mechanisms, numerous layers. Kind of like how originally we thought there was one Vitamin B but then came to learn there were numerous subclasses that were different in important ways.
Tell us that you never used Vulkan, without telling us.
In Canada, despite free healthcare, some of this comes down to how much personal research you do and how hard you advocate in order to be treated at a high-skill facility.

It is still an SES game, because higher levels of education (correlated with income) allows individuals to see beyond “well the doctor told me, so that’s what I’ll do”. Higher SES also comes with the ability for a more flexible work schedule, and the ability to travel to larger city centres where the high-skill care is more likely to be.
Juniper (YC W21) | Senior Software Engineer | Full-time | NYC | juniperplatform.com

Juniper operates at the messy financial infrastructure for US Healthcare. We've built an automated end-to-end insurance billing system for recurring care, starting with Autism clinics.

At Juniper, we’ve built an end-to-end billing system. We’ve built something really good, something that clinicians really need and love. We automate and abstract the tedious, manual, repetitive work that goes into the administrative duties of running a clinic, so that clinicians can do what they do best — providing high quality care. It starts with ingesting clinic data, and then create, validates, and submits claims to insurance providers across the country. If claims need corrections or appeals, most of the time we can handle those automatically or our CX and Operations team use our in-house internal tools. We also handle patient invoicing for co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles (we never send anything to collections).

We are a team of 27 with strong product market fit — in Q4 last year we’ve had to push out onboarding because engineering can’t build quickly enough, something we’ve scaled out of and will hopefully not bottleneck growth again. You’ll be working with an engineering leadership team from AWS and Stripe to get doctors and clinicians back to work helping kids.

I'm more worried about the legal department not restricting themselves to legal opinions. On a newspaper, you'll want lawyers who are willing to field fights with powerful outside entities. If these lawyers are not open to the idea that some rich people are going to be inconvenienced by the reporting, they will not want to help the reporter finding robust ways of publishing dicey material.

Sounds like The Intercept got neutered.
Because they are single entity with "rights" when it benefits them (them being actual real people with a significant stake or control), and completely unaccountable in a finger-pointy way when it doesn't.

Show HN: CBX – vanillaJS library for flexible form validation (& more)
I have create a small and flexible library for doing form flexible validation without writing much (with luck any JS). It's based on idea I had implemented in my past work, and it worked quite neatly IMO. Instead of binding constraints to fields, we instead "bind them to messages", this means constrains are not restricted to "span" single field, as well as allowing more flexibility in placement and styling. Also && of constraints flows naturally from implementation, thus you have more complex constraints just by nesting your html tags.

> whether they are codified or not

Was it an intentional rhetorical device to brush past the important distinction?

Yes, there will always be more powerful cliques. This is Jo Freeman's The Tyranny of Structurelessness. But the point is specifically whether those cliques and hierarchies are encoded into formal committees or whether they remain fluid based on the desires of the group at any given moment.

If we avoid codifying the hierarchies, we get better distribution of information and resources, people are held responsible to those who delegated tasks to them, and responsibility can be rotated more freely.
It's definitely still in the minority, but you're seeing a _lot_ more newer projects adopting consistent, ubiquitous type hints.

To your point though, the `_make_command` method here is not setting hints in its arguments. I'm not super familiar if this is considered "fine" in a pydantic world, as I found for my usage, native python type hints were more than fine to make my code more usable and safer. Based on the code though, it seems like there are cases where the `command_attribute` is not a callable. What I don't understand is why this isn't hinted as a Union of Callable and whatever other types it could receive. I'd have to spend more than 3 minutes looking at the code base to understand how it's used to get a stronger idea here.
I'm not disputing your suggested date, but I can't find it anywhere in the article. Can you explain where you got it?
You don't disrupt a thing by doing exactly the same. So, I don't think it's likely that OpenAI is looking to build a website that gives you ten or so results and then you click one with maybe some ads on the side.

What they are more likely to do is to use the web for RAG type approaches and use natural language to help you find what you are looking for in a chat (or voice) dialog that maybe involves repeated and increasingly more fine grained results that match what you are looking for.

People do this manually with Google currently and it's time consuming. I remember doing this with Yahoo, Altavista, and all the other things that were around before Google came around to find academic papers for my research. Google made that a lot easier. But the next level of that might involve a lot less skimming through long lists of results, opening lots of websites, etc.
I'm okay to live and let live and not litigate differences here as long as usage is meaningful and contributes to precision (although it would be perfectly fair to insist that's exactly what's being lost here).

I understand, for instance, that for some people there's an important difference between morality and ethics, but modern scholarship in meta-ethics that is perfectly up to speed on this vocabulary sees no benefit to policing that particular distinction.
Wow this looks amazing.

Q1 and Q2 2022 had negative GDP growth [0]. Ignoring the debate about whether or not that constitutes a "true recession", as the article mentions this index indicates the economy is experiencing strain and the timelines match up to the previous citation you mention. To me that would indicate it has some level of accurate representation.

If something would've gone wrong with rushing the vaccine like that it would've given the anti-vax people a massive boost and the vaccine refusal rates would've skyrocketed.

I trust statistics about strippers more than I trust statistics about the federal government.

No, there is only one scientific method, which is to say, one method that works better than any other to produce theories with predictive power. I describe it in the inaugural post of the series:

It's like the Hemingway quote:

While that most definitely is a consideration, AVIF lacks many features and much of the functionality offered by JPEG XL. An investment in JPEG XL, while only being beneficial for one task like you say, would have huge benefits given just how many images we see and process on the web.

AVIF certainly gets the hardware support advantage, but it fails in other regards where JPEG XL shines. Looking at it either way, JPEG XL is far from slow, and I'd argue that the other benefits outweigh that single shortcoming. Bandwidth should also be treated as a consideration, as you mentioned, and JPEG XL generally leads to smaller file sizes.

Realistically, this boils down to AVIF being largely worse than JPEG XL, with the exception of performance. Performance that could be improved for JPEG XL should hardware vendors choose to provide better support.
I'd almost forgotten about the California raisins until I came across this article. The original Gorillaz.
Yes, most of the promise of mRNA with cancer is the prospect for individualized therapy. But individualized therapy intrinsically means you're going to be a doing a patient-specific manufacturing step.

Sequencing and RNA synthesizing are widely available commercial services at this point, though not cheap.

There's a lot of magic to take mRNA and formulate it to last in the human body and go and do what you want, but it isn't likely to be the costly part of all of this if there's some small volume of people being treated this way.
There are many examples to the contrary.

In Israel, Gaza has higher casualties but you also have terrorists hiding among civilians, within hospitals, building tunnels with foreign aid, etc. It's regrettable, but it's also an extremely hard problem to solve.

Do we have more information about what they were looking for initially?

Also, which chemical process we use do you think could be improved by analyzing how similar biological process work? could we study how milk production work to synthesize proteins and improve care after injuries?

> the UK has used it since 1974, so let's just assume that FT (an English language paper) is not worried about confusion

Anyone aged around 60 or older would have been learning these numbers before 1974, and that's a significant overlap with FT's audience. You are dismissing this as if it's Middle English. It's an entirely reasonable explanation, at least one that shouldn't be dismissed.
I feel you so much on this. So many shops pressing for many more ways to allow tips, for example presenting a percentage with options 10%, 20%, 30%... to frame customers into picking the one in the middle!

But most seem to work.
For the near future actually using this power does cause a notable battery hit. We reached the point a while back with mobile 3D where you actively have to hold yourself back to stop draining the battery as so many devices will keep up frame rate wise to a surprising degree.

Mobile phones have taught us another annoying lesson though: edge compute will forever be under-utilized. I would go so far as to say now a huge proportion of the mainstream audience are simply not impressed by any advances in this area, the noise is almost entirely just developers.
If you're so hot for enforcing your guidelines, then why don't you post those comments on the posts that skip "...include REMOTE, INTERNS and/or VISA..."? Then others wouldn't have to break other guidelines.

Nope. The problem is that there are four quadrants in statistics, not two.

There are "found it and you have it", "found it and you don't have it", "didn't find it and you have it" and "didn't find it and you don't have it". Optimizing one of those quadrants deoptimizes the others. If you aren't looking for something specific because your Bayesian probability got bumped by other symptoms, you're going to pop the green jellybean. https://xkcd.com/882/

As someone who has been going through a lot of CT scans recently, I can tell you that they find a lot of inconsequential things. I can imagine that MRIs find even more. My doctors have been what seems to be unduly impressed with my ability to just shrug the reports off except for the specific thing that I need to get fixed. Apparently, most people freak out and they have to spend a lot of time talking them down. My response: "The CT scan results are basically saying "Sucks to get old, brah." There's only one alternative, and it's not very preferable. Now, let's get the thing we're monitoring fixed."
Would be a great alternative to cremation.
It also went wrong using only profitability as the only measure. Obviously an unprofitable company isn't long-term sustainable, but a maximally profitable company might not be either, as a company exists within a society and on a planet with limited resources.

Indeed, anything goes! What matters is the result of experiments. Fundamentally science is about understanding more about the world. It does not matter if there are "magical" or "mythical" entities or not. In fact, I would even argue that my current position as to science and religion is similar to that of the position taken by Georges Lemaître.

There's a lot of peculiarity when you study science and even math. Some things just seem too elegant to be coincidental like Euler's equation and the phenomenon of emergence, but even if they are coincidental that realization of coincidence and the slim chance of it happening is also fascinating. On the other hand there are also mind-boggingly unelegant things about nature that require empirical methods because exact and analytical methods aren't cutting it to describe phenomena. It feels all like a mish-mash of different mechanics/rules put together. I do believe Lemaître understood it well that by researching the sciences we also, in its own way, are trying to learn and know about God and his creations (assuming you accept the axiom that God created the universe).
Doing an MRI isn't free, so it isn't strictly better than not doing one.
Of course it would be different. I'm well aware of historical numbering systems, and their applications.

My point is that if base-12 was biologically natural, instead of more effortfully useful, there would be many differences in the way we do things -- although of course we would be mostly unaware of them, as a fish in water.

There would be no metric-vs-imperial units dichotomy, for example. (EDIT: Or at least the conflict would be different and likely lesser, ergo easier to switch)

NASA probably wouldn't have lost the $327MM Mars Climate Orbiter. And it wouldn't have cost $327MM in the first place.

In some cases, unit sizes would be different. That's the easy case. But in counting systems, 100 of some atomic thing would be 44% more than it is today. 1000 would be 73% more. 1MM would be almost triple. Given the attachment people have to round numbers, this would have implications. Some things would be bigger. Other things would be considered in different increments.

It's interesting. Not profound.

> Perhaps the more computers think for us, the smaller the cognitive differences between us become.

I think it's the opposite. The wealth of information on the internet is only as good as your ability to both understand and apply it, but also filter out irrelevant, misleading, and outright false content. The bell curve is still there, but it's probably moving to the right globally as nutrition and education get better.

That being said, I'm very concerned with widespread manipulation via subtle propaganda. Ads are a (mostly) benign form of this, but I find it hard to believe governments aren't at least attempting it.
Now that we live in a world where AI chooses who to bomb and who to let live, it is very interesting thinking about books such as "The Techno-Optimist". Great analysis.
