Yeah I also tried to get it to complete some limericks from the dataset. Curiously it believed it had heard of the limerick but would then recite a hallucination.

So the good news is that the NIAN score might be real, bad news is you can't rely on it to know what it knows.
My favorite thing about the cards is they were little windows into a deep and mysterious world, hinted at further by the mechanics of the cards.

I thought it was just nostalgia, but looking at the sets you linked the 1995 one (I'd never seen) excites me while the 2024 does nothing... it could almost be AI. It's not just the same faces, but the same framing, same expressions, same "grand fantasy architecture", same MMO-esque magical swirls and sparkles, etc.

The abstract pieces weren't just whimsy, they felt like they could be based on vastly different local traditions or culture, history, or come from different time periods.
Maybe together they can use AI to make a less shitty Christmas tree
I'm assuming you're waiting until the end of the 7 day battery life to recharge it (e.g. you recharge every Sunday) and I'm assuming the probability of a theft is uniformly random throughout the week. Thus, on average, you'd expect stolen devices to only have half the battery left because there's equally many stolen on the first day (7 days of battery left) as on the last day (0 days), equally many stolen on the second day (6 days left) vs penultimate day (1 day left) etc etc. At scale, that would average out to stolen property having attached devices having half the advertised battery life.

You can argue that you'd be more dilligent about recharging but I'd counter that at scale you'd be the outlier. On average I'd actually expect an average battery life when stolen closer to 0 because people wouldn't be diligently recharging them & reattaching them (i.e. either the battery life would be 0 or the device wouldn't be attached to the desired property).
Like the effective altruists bought themselves a castle with SBF's money - in the best interests of humanity, obviously.
There a story that when in Rome the young Mozart of 14 listened to Gregorio Allegri’s famous Miserere and afterwards wrote it down note for note from memory.

The important point about this story is that the Church so revered the wonderful Miserere that it kept its score secret so it could only be performed in Rome, so Mozart had no other choice but to memorize it.

Reputably, Mozart had perfect pitch and a phenomenal musical memory and he composed almost without corrections—a look at his handwritten scores and that's obvious, they're neat and near perfect.

Your son is clearly one of those lucky people so gifted.

FYI, if interested, here's a YouTube recording of what Mozart wrote down from memory (truly amazing if you ask me): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDOENZediM8

How would you explain plastic to someone who hadn't even seen it? I would say it is like candle wax (which it is), but it melts at a higher temperature and is much stronger when solid.
I’d be surprised if you damaged your eyes with any LEDs in the visible spectrum. Walking around in midday sun exposes you to orders of magnitude more energy. Maybe if you had focusing lenses on them, and they were really high power, like the kind that needs heat sinks to operate safely.

If you had say UV LEDs, all bets are off since it wouldn’t trigger the pupillary light reflex to close down the iris.

Hmm, I reflexively disagree, but I disagree even after considering it from other different positions.

Need is a strong term and it is likely doing a lot of work in that claim. We, technically, do not need much bar food, water and shelter. In that sense, the post is absolutely correct. Realistically, there is zero need for self-hosting, or linux, or anything much really.

But even if we get past the need claim, why is setting up a duopoly a preferred option to people actually running their own preferred setups ( and maybe even learning something in the process )?

More importantly, why on earth would I want yet another giant corporation in charge of my digital life?

<< create proper website incentives so the Internet stops sucking.

Interestingly, linux tinkerers and self-hosters are likely one of the few reasons web does not suck AS much as it otherwise could have. In a sense, the incentives are there.

<< We need SEO companies to realize they will go out of business if they continue to generate crap filler content for their clients.

Business is just that.. a business. I don't expect mosquito not to bite me. If anything, the whole premise is wrong. SEO companies defer to google's wishes and google heard the pleas of the ad industry and declared war on adblockers.

<< We need influence. We need effective results.

Zero disagreement.

<< Self-hosted is cute but ineffective at best, selfish at worst.

I dunno. It might be selfish, but I am ok with that if that is the worst. I would worry about it being ineffective, but.. I like my various instances. They serve a purpose to me.
Amid 'annoying' San Francisco mishaps, feds begin Waymo investigation
Ok, I get what you mean rlogin and rsh are not safe because of inumerous legacy problems. But I think you get what I meant as well, authorization problems can be solved without SSH.

I said that even rsh would do because will can ignore all the weird outdated stuff and just login with an user and password, same as a local login. In that case telnet would also work.

However, I truly believe that cryptographic keys are way superior to passwords. And going back to them would be a huge step back
"Like turning all the lights green at the same time": This was the theme of a scifi short story (later expanded into a book) back in the 1960s.
Pretty amusing the old AI revolution was pure logic/reasoning/inference based. People knew to be a believable AI the system needed some level of believable reasoning and logic capabilities, but nobody wanted to decompose a business problem into disjunctive logic statements, and any additional logic can have implications across the whole universe of other logic making it hard to predict and maintain.

LLMs brought this new revolution where it's not immediately obvious you're chatting with a machine, but, just like most humans, they still severely lack the ability to decompose unstructured data into logic statements and prove anything out. It would be amazing if they could write some datalog or prolog to approximate more complex neural-network-based understanding of some problem, as logic based systems are more explainable
The TLB also adds some log factors to array access, which dominate for arrays that fit within a few dozen centimeters of your CPU.
The Power 9 are only almighty powerful in 2 player games. If there are 3 or more players, the Power 9 are nowhere near as decisive.

This is correct. The Shake team and the Motion team shared office space but other than maybe some very tiny bits of code-sharing (like the retiming mentioned), the Motion app was built entirely by the guys that came over from Discreet.
Semaglutide most common side-effect is nausea, but it can also lead to cancer in some people.

The chat memory was full of mostly nonsense and it asked me a completely random and simple question out of the blue. Did chatbots evolve a lot since he was created.

I think you can get models to "think" if you give them a goal in the system prompt, a memory of previous thoughts, and keep invoking them with cron
Oddly enough, I predict the final destination for this train will be for moving images to fade into the background. Everything will have a dazzling sameness to it. It's not unlike the weird place that action movies and pop music have arrived. What would have been considered unbelievable a short time ago has become bland. It's probably more than just novelty that's driving the comeback of vinyl.
It was always software. Humanoid robots could walk up and down stairs and use basic tools, in preprogrammed lab conditions and/or by manual teleoperations since 90s[1], and in theory autonomously since 2010s[2]. Nowadays they just can, thanks to NVIDIA CUDA, but grabbing objects is still sketchy[3].

It's a real effect. I got blocked from following Brian Krebs because someone (on a different server) said someone else couldn't be a Nazi because they were black, I said being black doesn't disqualify someone from being a Nazi, and someone on Brian Krebs's server reported it as racism.

I only got this reversed two months later by making my own account on Brian Krebs's server and calling out the admin in a public toot on that server.

And in addition to the companies you mention, there was also Pixar, which of course he was also running. He was probably even more pissed that Catmull wasn't willing to dump all of Pixar's Linux machines and use Macs :)

I'm not that familiar with syntax of functional programming languages.

Isn't Int -> String -> String a shorthand for Int -> (String -> String)?

Thus I would have assumed the first argument to the result of sprintf "%s %d" would be an integer, then a string and the final result would be a string.

But the invocation would be sprintf "%s %d" "hello" 42, wouldn't it?
I remember with one such intersection that one strategy was to lay the bicycle sideways on the pavement to trigger the sensor.

Their method cannot account for all of the variables that affect well being because no one fully understands what all those variables are, much less having the ability to account for them in a study like this.

Per your links they accounted for just 6 variables, not nearly enough to make the stated conclusion with any confidence:

> In addressing our second research question, our aim was to approach the independent contributions of internet access and use on well-being. To that end, we adjusted for plausible (and available) covariates in our models that might otherwise mask or bias any independent contributions of internet access on well-being or create spurious associations. We chose six variables to represent such potentially confounding factors that have been previously considered important in the literature on well-being (): the respondent’s income (e.g., ), educational (), work (), and relationship statuses (), their ability to meet basic needs for food and shelter, and whether or not they reported having health problems ().
Google Cloud and cloud services generated almost 9.57 billion. That's up 28% from prior:

They are embedding their models not only widely across their platforms suite of internal products and devices, but also computationally via API for 3rd party development.

It definitely hurts those who hold debt. Maybe you're thinking of borrowers? Certainly debt holders are very damaged by inflation, too. Especially long term debt holders (such as the previously mentioned pensions/retirement accounts).

If you have a 30 year bond paying 2% and inflation goes up to 4%, you're making -2% on your bond. Sure, that's not as bad as -4% for cash holders. But it's not good at all if you're planning to retire someday as the compounding effects of inflation over the decades wipe out your retirement benefits.
Apple/Google will alert a computer if a potential Apple/Google competitor is tracking them. Makes one wonder who this is meant to benefit. The computer user or the company.

Hence the term "unwanted" location tracking.

The assumption made by Apple is that the computer user _wants_ Apple to track their locaton; the assumption by Google is that the computer user _wants_ Google to track their location.

There will be no alert that Apple or Google are receiving location data. Why alert the computer user about something that they "want".

It's the same ruse with Google or Apple providing ad blocking. The ad blocking feature will only interfere with ads that are not serviced through Apple or Google. Ads provided by Apple or Google shall remain unaffected.

These companies are engaged in online ad services. Why would they protect the computer user from online ads and data collection that makes online ads more targeted. There will be tracking and there will be ads, along with an ongoing assumption that the computer _wants_ tracking and ads but only if provided by Apple or Google.

For decades, game engines have been working on realistic rendering. Bumping quality here and there.

The golden standard for rendering has always been cameras. It’s always photo-realistic rendering. Maybe this won’t be true for VR, but so far most effort is to be as good as video, not as good as the human eye.

Any sort of video generation AI is likely to have the same goal. Be as good as top notch cameras, not as eyes.
I just can't feel bad for people still using Google for anything important.
I've thought that it's hard to appreciate how much large tech companies (and communications and payment intermediaries) are in a terrible double bind about many content and policy issues.

If they enforce some community's or culture's norms, or proactively try to avoid enabling any violations of some jurisdiction's laws, people will find things about that that outrage them, including misunderstandings, or ways that those norms aren't shared by others, or ways that they can be oppressive.

If they don't do that, other people will get outraged about how the companies are allowing or facilitating "bad stuff" which they obviously could have chosen not to allow or facilitate to the same extent.

But there might be no actual possible course of action which would avoid both forms of outrage!

And, at a large scale, false positive rates and false negative rates are usually in a trade-off, even when people supposedly agree on what is supposed to happen. (Which they also don't actually agree on.) That's especially true when companies are using software and statistics to help them make judgments, or when they're not spending billions of dollars to have decisions made by domain experts, at leisure, with rights of appeal.
