If it's a cyberattack, the insurance companies involved will absolutely blow the lid open publicly. They're the ones who are going to pay here and they're the ones who have to insure ships in harbors going forward.

This wouldn't be some hack like Equifax with hard to demonstrate harm. The insurance companies are going to be on the hook for hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars so they're going to want to prevent anything like this in the future. They're explicitly on the hook for some extreme damages if this happens in the Suez or Panama canal especially.
Who are some indie journalists you've found to be worth paying? I'd like to find some more work that's worth supporting.
It was there in iOS 9, in iPadOS 13 (the 9to5mac link posted yesterday), and is there today in iPadOS 17, but I'll concede I'm not spending the time to rule out that Apple took the option away during the year you were trying to turn it off and then they put it back afterward.
Ozempic has these side effects but there are better options. My partner is currently on Mounjaro and ~7 weeks in she’s had literally a few bouts of slight nausea for a few hours. The side effects are definitely worth the results in her case. She’s also exercised 3 times a week, never missing a session. Both the diet and exercise adherence she’s previously failed at many times.

In my opinion, from a public health perspective they should be giving these drugs out liberally.
Yeah, that’s Google’s reputation. Probably the most famous retirement home in the Bay.
Similarly the Veo example of the northern lights is a really interesting one. That's not what the northern lights look like to the naked eye - they're actually pretty grey. The really bright greens and even the reds really only come out when you take a photo of them with a camera. Of course the model couldn't know that because, well, it only gets trained on photos. Gets really existential - simulacra energy - maybe another good AI Turing test, for now.
The Kindle Scribe is way more expensive than normal kindles (and has to handle the more computationally demanding task of vector graphics), so it would have a faster processor, and would be able to handle ebooks way easier than a cheap Kindle.

Not saying you're wrong, just that your anecdote doesn't mean much about $100/$50 Kindles.

I am at a loss to understand this. I learned C in 1989 and sprintf takes a minimum of two arguments, but typically takes three or more, the first one being the string for the output to be written to. Perhaps the author was writing about printf, which takes a minimum of one argument, but typically takes two or more?

There is no evidence of this being true.

> But if you specifically want run RISC-V code, for example to get your software ready for the coming much faster RISC-V machines, then this is a good way to do it, without having to spend $180 up front for the equivalent SBC.

If that's all you're using it for, isn't qemu good enough?

> RISC-V machines with cores 1.3x faster will be out in a few months, and 2x faster around the end of the year. By around 2016 there will be RISC-V around Zen2 or Apple M1 performance. This is all in the pipeline.

That's a great argument for prepping your software now, but also for not buying anything now. Like, textbook https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_effect

False! Possibly 90% of people find their friends via the mobile app, which scans their phone contacts and suggests people they might know. Names are not unique, plus there are lots of fake profiles and impersonations - so far, after I've reported hundreds if not thousands, Facebook has never taken down a single phony account I've reported! Many click farms create fake profiles using the same names and existing photos! We used to be able to search by phone number and email, but that option is no longer available. Most of my friends have several profiles because people forget their passwords or get locked out by Facebook's ridiculous policies, so they create new profiles (I have two backup profiles myself as I manage several nonprofit Facebook pages, and when I get punished personally by Facebook, they also punish the community pages I manage). Many of my more active friends have at least one backup Facebook profile in case Facebook puts them in the like/comment jail for some time. The ridiculous thing is having a small nonprofit, which has been verified by Facebook, which has just one admin, and that nonprofit, which is not a personal entity, gets punished by being unable to live stream, for example, while this entity has no violations! But that's how Facebook inflates the number of its users, I guess.

The core patents already have expired. They have competition, it's called Reinkstone (and their DES/cofferdam tech).

The reason e-inks are so expensive and progressing so slowly is that it's a niche product which doesn't drive much R&D spending (compared to LCDs, which sell billions per quarter and you're reading this comment on).
Dominion is such an amazing game - the complexity that can arise from such a dead simple set of core rules is awesome.

They do care, but they’re addicted to food. Many people without that lived experience just can’t seem to get their heads around this. They’re not lazy because they fail at their attempts, it’s genuinely extremely difficult on a level that almost no one seems to understand unless they’ve experienced addiction.
I think now wanting to use an anonymous email may be too late.

The bigger problem is if you lose access to an email address and cannot change it. I’ve lost access to email addresses so would be in a bit of trouble in this instance. If a paying account and continued billing even more so
I have to preface my comment by saying I am reasonably technical but not an engineer by any stretch. I find this comment fascinating and it seems to highlight some issues I face in my own organisation (tech/design professional services company). We build apps and platforms for enterprise clients and often struggle with predicting a lot of parts of our software.

I might have a poor understanding of your comment but could you expand on the ideas behind solvers and what they are? What data do they ingest from a company building software and how did the solver you build work (in layman's terms)?

ADS-B (so-called “secondary radar”) (actually aircraft telemetry) is broadcast with no encryption or authentication of any kind. Anyone can get on 1090MHz and transmit any packets they like (until the FCC and FAA and FBI arrive).

They spent billions on building it and use it internally, but failed to sell it or have an enterprise sales division.

You don't build something with your "childrens' inheritance" that you haven't bothered to make an effort to sell.

They did the same thing with Portal.

Enterprise products don't sell themselves and must be demonstrated and engage potential customers.

Such fail.
Sometimes I think about whether a nation-state may have an incentive to solve this problem. They could adopt a strict anti-SEO spam policy for their ccTLD and run a publicity campaign telling people about it, so they'd filter search results to that ccTLD, with the purpose of improving the country's reputation (by associating it with high-quality search results). That sounds kind of far-fetched, but it's hard to think of anything else. Maybe you could direct the blame at CAs too.

For now, at least we can still put "before:2020" in our search queries.
I'm sorry but LLMs notoriously provide inaccurate and otherwise awful information.

Case in point, I asked an LLM what the last non cellular windows mobile classic PDA was. (I knew the answer) And it routinely got it wrong.

This is what LLMs should be useful for. If I cant audit the results or very how it came to the conclusion the answer is useless.

LLMs are toys at this juncture.

They are larger and build damns and many other differences, so they fill different niches. The idea is to restore the pre-industrial ecosystem as best we can. Maybe their natural land management will improve the quality of the wetlands, or maybe it will cause flooding of nearby human occupied land and cause them to be quietly removed. Maybe they will become prey to wolves and lynx, or maybe they will need to be culled because those predators probably won't be released in London.
It would not be unusual for the protection design to have the LV and HV breakers on either side of the transformer linked, so that if one trips the other does too. So you can't necessarily read anything in to the fact that both tripped.

Exactly. The Pi is useful for some stuff if.you need a lot of GPIO or legacy hat support etc. or just hate x86 for some bizarre reason. Otherwise I can see literally no benefit to a Pi over an N95 or Nx00 box. I using them all over the place and have been rock solid. And you can get them with multiple nvme sockets, sata, etc.

The Pi obsession truly boggles my mind. I can see it with the RP2040 etc but a regular Pi? Why?

The purpose of regulation should be to combat harmful business practices and not to try to destroy a company that grows too big for the tastes of EU politicians. Does Booking.com use their size to harm competitors in any harmful way? Not that I know. Do they abuse their customers or accommodation partners? Not that I know. Regulators should show some evidence before making hostile moves, it seems they are just acting on ideology and not in the interests of the customer. But EU rulers and their worshippers among the population do live in a kind of fantasy land of 300 page PDFs, while ignoring very tangible problems.

Booking.com should of course have to make good on any promises or deals they make with guests and with hotels, which they seem to do.

If there's one thing that regulators should take a look at, it is the practice of selling non-refundable hotel nights. Booking.com does it together with hotels who able such offers and the whole industry does it at a limited scale, and have always done it. But the way I see it, there is no reason that a hotel shouldn't be able to always refund any room if it is cancelled at least one month before the stay. You should always be able to find another occupant for the room within one month. The only reason hotels sell non-refundable rooms is with the hope of double dipping when somebody has mistakenly reserved it without paying notice that it was non-refundable. I can see no argument against mandating a one month free cancellation for all hotel bookings on land.
Every situation is different, and sometimes it's prudent to write a kludge to fix something now, while other times it's more prudent to take your time developing a long term solution. There's even the middle ground of monkey patch now, long term solution later.

I would argue that a well rounded developer will have the capacity to write kludges when necessary, and long term solutions when necessary. Now, if your boss repeatedly asks you to write the code one way and you are always disagreeing with them, then that would be a good reason to find another job. But if you trust your boss, you'll write the code however they ask, even if it's not your natural preference.

We had no password rules either, so IIRC you could have a 1-char password.

That's been my assumption since the beginning of this drama last year. He seems to have one goal: real AGI. He knows that while LLMs may make something that seems like AGI there's nothing actually intelligent about it and its never going to get them there. OpenAI wants to pivot and sell sell sell because all they see is potential trillions of dollars, and it's time to make money instead of burning more millions/billions chasing a dream.

Yet all the AI weirdos on Twitter seem convinced that Ilya "saw something" (AGI) and got scared and wanted to pull the plug...lmao.
That doesn't seem in any way useful, though... To use a very blunt analogy, are color blind people intelligent/sentient/whatever? Obviously, yes: differences in perceptual apparatus aren't useful indicators of intelligence.

> Thus, the human eye primarily views the Northern Lights in faint colors and shades of gray and white. DSLR camera sensors don't have that limitation. Couple that fact with the long exposure times and high ISO settings of modern cameras and it becomes clear that the camera sensor has a much higher dynamic range of vision in the dark than people do.

This aligns with my experiences.

The brightest ones I saw in Northern Canada I even saw hints of reds - but no real greens - until I looked at it through my phone, and it looked just like the simulated video.
