The most moneyed and well-coordinated organizations have honed a large hammer, and they are going to use it for everything, and so almost certainly future big findings in the areas you mention, probabilistically inclined models coming from ML will be the new gold standard.

But yet the only thing that can save us from ML will be ML itself because it is ML that has the best chance to be able to extrapolate patterns from these blackbox models to develop human interpretable models. I hope we do dedicate explicit effort to this endeavor, and so continue the human advances and expanse of human knowledge in tandem with human ingenuity with computers at our assistance.

> Just like financial crimes will always exist[1], it isn't possible to stamp out piracy.

As Gabe Newell said of piracy, "piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem".

By and large, most people want to do the right thing to consume media. If you try to make it really hard to do that to stamp out the pirates, then you're just going to encourage the piracy market. But you can see services like Steam or the various music streaming apps that really did a lot to crush the piracy market just by making legitimate consumption easy. (And you can also see that the attempts by various streaming services to make walled gardens for video stuff that when you make it harder, piracy goes back on the uptick).
Not according to the judge you linked. She says the court emphasized that there was a risk of irreparable harm to the Palestinian right of being protected from genocide.

You wrote a lot but for someone so adept in understanding others, you have failed multiple times to answer a very simple question, so I will ask it once again:

What happens if there is harm to your right to be protected from genocide?
DRM has been the modus operandi of OverDrive's ebook offering since Day 1. It's not even really a them thing or a private equity thing. It makes the publishers happy and makes the whole system work at all. Deleting DRM doesn't mean we enter a utopia where ebooks are freely shared, it means public libraries lose ebooks from big publishers completely.
Note that "in full" refers to the dollar-valuations of the crypto assets at the bankruptcy date. Many of the assets themselves have appreciated significantly since that date- hence the "surplus". Their former owners will not see that appreciation.
Awesome. This is why I come to Hacker News.

> Youtube, facebook, reddit is a disease for me. I am a moderator of some niche subreddits

I had a friend who developed a problem with alcoholism. He went through a period of time where he'd stop by the bar several nights a week to have a single beer because he thought it was important to his social circle.

To no one's surprise, that one drink often turned into two drinks. Two became four, then six, then eight, then he was blacked out on a Wednesday again.

It took some time, but he finally admitted that his habit of visiting the bar was a trigger for the exact behavior he was trying to avoid.

When I see someone talk about how they have a severe social media addiction that they're trying to overcome, but then go on to talk about how they're a moderator on the platform they're trying to avoid, I see the exact same thing.

I don't know what else to say, other than that my friend is doing fantastic now that he's stopped visiting bars at all. He discovered that once he removed the bar as an option for his free time, he realized how many healthier alternatives there were in the real world. He wasn't constantly playing the game of moderating his alcohol intake because he wasn't in environments where he had to. He's much happier now.
Of course you'd grandfather in older works. But it's a moot point, in most places money is more important than access to art. I can't imagine such a law ever being passed.

They produced 1.85 million vehicles in 2023.

So a $2 million order would work out to $1.08 per car.

Or if Lidar hardware for one car cost about $500, then $2 million is not quite enough for one day's worth of manufacturing output.

Yeah, the day I saw one of those I thought this will end up with a gun turret rather quickly. When they gain a lot of autonomy war will become absolutely unberable for most soldiers. Death and dismemberment will be coming from all directions, totally unexpected. The tatatata rifle style combat is nearly obsolete. One stat I read was that in the Russian war on Ukraine about 90% of combat deaths and injuries are from artillery fire and drones rather than direct infantry combat. It's already changing the face of war drastically. But maybe we can eventually get to a form of MAD where in war drones fight other drones and war ends when one side runs out of its robots?
Global Electricity Review 2024
The `multiprocessing` and `concurrent.futures` pools support a fork strategy on Linux (which is the default).

What that means is that your worker processes run in an interpreter whose state is the same as the parent. Effectively you will then inherit imported modules, global variables, etc.

The mechanisms to send objects across threads do rely on pickling objects in a queue, yes. But if you know you will use a forking pool, you can just put your variables as globals before the fork and access them in your workers.

Essentially, you can change this:

def worker(obj):
print(obj)

def parent():
objs = [obj1, obj2]
with Pool(2) as pool:
pool.map(worker, objs) # each obj is pickled and sent to the worker through a queue

To this:

OBJS = []

def worker(idx):
print(OBJS[idx])

def parent():
OBJS.append(obj1)
OBJS.append(obj2)
with Pool(2) as pool:
pool.map(worker, range(len(OBJS)))
del OBJS[0]
del OBJS[1]

> there are special things like Manager I haven't used.

Managers are an abstraction over a shared memory, and objects that can be safely stored in it. From my experience it's cumbersome to use and very limited in functionality.
It has more to do with US politics - both the major US political parties lean to the right- and allowing unions encourages socialist ideas that obviously clash with the ideas of the political right. Unions can (and do) become powerful political blocs which means that political parties then have to try to entrench themselves in it to retain some level of influence. But that also means they also have to actually listen to their concerns and politically deliver on some of them, to retain their influence. This can lead to a dilution of the ideology of the politically right, which some politicians and businessmen do consider as a political threat.

If, instead of a machine algorithm, we wired newborn human brain in a jar and "trained it" to choose the next thing to show in a feed, to get nothing but reward for when someone clicks/comments/lingers on something, and nothing but punishment when they leave, plus the basic human functions of walking and talking etc, then put that brain into an adult human body, what would we describe that person as? Probably a psychopath with no moral compass? A sicko willing to do indescribable horrors? Evil incanate? A calculating manipulator for sure. But somehow when we "train" a machine model with singular goal of profit alignment, people think that's just the free and efficient market. And the idea of aligning the models with human good instead is seen as overregulation.

I always figured it'd be implemented Stripe style where completing age verification just gives the site a token that they can use to validate the third party age check.

The problem is how to make the provider side anonymized so that they don't know what sites your visiting, but that could be probably solved with legislation. In California, at least. I wouldn't trust Congress with a bill like this.

Nice to see what was probably already an internal resource now published and open for comment.

My son was required to do a report on muskrats for school recently, and both him and I knew nothing about them, and were shocked by how little info their is- trying to find basic info about them online is really hard, they are certainly pretty much ignored by people.

Falling yes. Killing is hit-or miss. I would be surprised if the reasons bridges are failing due to lack of maintenance is entirely unrelated to the cost of building.

Reddit is one of the worst offenders for rage bait, algorithmic feeds, content farming, and vacuous content.

Reddit absolutely refreshes your feed under certain circumstances depending on the platform, such as hitting the back button.

Your claims about moderation are also completely backward. People complain about Facebook being too sensitive about moderation, but Reddit is basically the wild west. Nearly anything goes on Reddit and the mainstream subreddits are frequently full of highly upvoted misinformation.
It'd be worthwhile to ask why that answer persisted on SE in the first place.

I've used iscsi before with sg and scd devices; it's never even occurred to me that anyone should think it's limited to disks, because, well, it's not.

For the record, ATA-over-Ethernet (AoE) is/was a competing protocol to iSCSI, and it also has generic ATAPI support.

For anyone looking to build a rube goldberg machine for thier youtube channel or get up to similar shenanigans, I think it would be funny use case to get a SCSI Ethernet adapter running over iSCSI.

I think you will find that for the vast, vast majority of scientific papers there is significant negative expected value to even attempting to have layperson reviewers. Bear in mind that we're talking about papers written by experts in a specific field aimed at highly technical communication with other people who are experts in the same field. As a result, the only people who can usefully review the materials are drawn from those who are also experts in the same field.

For an instructive example, look up the seminal paper on the structure of DNA: https://www.mskcc.org/teaser/1953-nature-papers-watson-crick... Ask yourself how useful comments from someone who did not know what an X-ray is, never mind anything about organic chemistry, would be in improving the quality of research or quality of communication between experts in both fields.

Agree. The idea is to verify your age, not harvest all your PII data across every login and viewing session. Companies can easily implement this privacy-preserving step, they just won't until it is strictly enforced.

That sounds a setting too.

From watching the demo it looks interesting, but I figure I would get tired of dragging nodes around and looking for ones that I'm interested in. Does it allow searching?

> Every single consumer is outmatched. The only winning choice is to not play at all.

If someone can't handle their social media usage, you're right that they should stay away.

But this idea that "every single consumer" can't handle it is patently false. The vast majority of social media users aren't completely sucked in to their apps and phones. The time spent on platform graph for every platform has a long tail where the addicts reside, but most people just don't get in that deep.

It can seem that way when you're surrounded by addicts or, more commonly, when your social interaction comes primarily through social media (because addicts are over-represented, obviously). However, what you're missing is all of the people who aren't engaged in social media all day every day.
Is there something like this (maybe this?) that provides an API so I can integrate it like any other model into my own website (in this case, https://cocalc.com)? I tried asking the Phind.com devs, but got ignored.
It doesn't seem so. I believe they're pointing out that our current best alternative to a robot dog with a gun is a human with a gun. Robot dog gets shot and is decommissioned; human gets shot and relies on disability payments for a few decades.
What if our understanding of the laws of the natural sciences are subtly flawed and AI just corrects perfectly for our flawed understanding without telling us what the error in our theory was?

Forget trying to understand dark matter. Just use this model to correct for how the universe works. What is actually wrong with our current model and if dark matter exists or not or something else is causing things doesn't matter. "Shut up and calculate" becomes "Shut up and do inference."
In my 30± year career I can confidently say that Software Engineers look towards standardisation by default as it makes their lives easier.

I can't find the link at the moment but from the perspective of the CASP leaders, AF2 was accurate enough that it's hard to even compare to the best structures determined experimentally, due to noise in the data/inadequacy of the metric.

A number of crystallographers have also reported that the predictions helped them find errors in their own crystal-determined structures.

If you're not really familiar enough with the field to understand the papers above, I recommend spending more time learning about the protein structure prediction problem, and how it relates to the epxerimental determination of structure using crystallography.
