I agree. The usual knowdledge is that a new infection by a diferent variant is bad, but IIUC they made a 2D table with all the possible combinations of two varians to see which combinations are the worst. Is this correct? Does someone have a better understanding of the new result?

Could you elaborate on that?

Distributed systems typically rely on messaging passing to some sort of "interface" in order to communicate and coordinate actions with remote nodes. Objects work much the same way and are designed to mimic the characteristics of an independent, remote computer node.

This can be done in any language that offers encapsulation of data, methods and state.
Because people know they make mistakes, and aren’t always 100% certain and are capable of referring you to other people. Also because the mistakes LLMs make are entirely unlike mistakes humans make. Humans don’t generate fake URLs citing entirely fake references. Humans don’t apologize when corrected and then re-assert the same mistake. Also because we know that people aren’t perfect and we don’t expect them to be infallible, humans can break out of their script and work around the process that’s been encoded in their computers.

But most people do expect computers to be infallible, and the marketing hype for LLMs is that they are going to replace all human intellectual labor. Huge numbers of people actually believe that. And if you could convince an LLM it was wrong (you can’t, not reliably), it has no way around the system it’s baked into.

All of these things are really really dangerous, and just blithely dismissing it as “humans make mistakes, too, lol” is really naive. Humans can decide not to drop a bomb or shoot a gun if they see that their target isn’t what they expect. AIs never will.
They may not say it in the article, but there's been overhauls of most of the internal systems to accommodate use cases that didn't exist decades ago when the previous models were designed.

The video makes the case that the early detection of cancers isn't always a good thing. See 6:30 and 7:00 for specific references to scientific studies. Some cancers (thyroid and skin) can be detected at a much higher rate, but the associated mortality remains constant (we are detecting benign cancers).

To be clear: obviously this is dependent on the cancer. Really my point is that we need studies that show that the screening improves outcomes.
Who are you protecting? Those who would be duped by it? Are you trying to get rid of salesman? Responding to a dark market with authoritative measures means you're trying to protect suckers. You can't stop people from being victimized. An evolutionary response is the only solution. A graceful decline of suckers is the solution. Do not try to protect them, they will only hate you for it.
You'd want the opposite - maximalistic client that let's you filter out what you can't keep up with (e.g., separate stories from one other you don't like from the stories from the author you love, short stories from long ones, stories on topics you don't care about from the ones on topics you're very interested in, etc.), hiding that out of the UI to a dark corner (so that you satisfy that completionist feeling you're not missing anything, but will practically never visit it), but also trying to simplify the experience of creating those filters manually and with suggestions based on what you read.

Though I don't know of any services/cross-platform clients (for syncing state) that do that well
I've got a friend who's been pushing his employer to get off VMware since Broadcom bought them. Absolutely astonishing how fast the enshittification is kicking in.
I don't reckon so, we know a great deal about Mozart and that he was incredibly productive throughout his working career which spanned 30 of his 35 years.

Thanks to Köchel and others essentially Mozart's entire life's work is very well documented and that over those 30 years he produced about 626 musical works most of which are of the highest standard, and of those some rank as works of sheer genius, not only have they stood the test of time but they still remain popular and well loved by millions some 233 after his death.

Mozart's talent and his life's work can thus be held up as a standard—a level of excellence—to which many of us would like to aspire.

What makes Mozart special, perhaps more so than many other famous composers, is how much he achieved in such a short life. He's up at the pinnacle with others who have achieved great things. Even for those of us who are not composers Mozart's yardstick can remind us of our own often-limited talents and work and how we wished they were better or how we might go about improving them. At times I experience such notions when listening to his music.
They don't appear to be coming from anywhere else, either. Besides, Apple was never creating revolutionary new technology. Ever. Apple didn't make the first PC, Apple didn't make the first laptop, Apple didn't make the first MP3 player, Apple didn't make the first smartphone, Apple didn't make the first tablet, Apple didn't make the first smartwatch, and Apple didn't make the first VR headset.

Not sure why you're expecting anything different from Apple today.

What Apple does do is take these new technologies and make them easy to use by the mass market consumers and create powerful tools for creatives to use. THAT is Apple's raison d'être and has always been.

Would this recompilation technique be applicable to other systems (3DS, GameCube, Wii, etc.)?
As far as I can tell, I'm just skipping over the issues which may be true, but are beside the point, but then, it is not clear to me which statement's first half you think I am skipping over.

The point I have been making all along is that, regardless of what led Boeing to the point of choosing to hide or misrepresent the situation, it is the choice to do so that turns this into a potentially criminal matter. With the same physical/technical problems but proper and timely disclosure of the issues during development, by far the most likely outcome would have been a delayed program delivering MAXes substantially similar (in both construction and operation) to the ones which are certified and flying today. After that, even in the unlikely event that the crashes had occurred, criminal prosecution would be unlikely, and certainly not on the basis of the facts for which it is currently being considered.

> Respectfully, I think we cracked basic intelligence. What do you imagine under basic intelligence?

It all depends on your definition of intelligence. Mine is the ability to solve novel problems.

AI is unable to solve novel problems, only things it has been trained against. AI is not intelligent, unless you change the very definition of the word.
The juice is heavily price-gouged and not exactly cheap if you buy it pre-mixed, but yes, hardware is expensive and the replacement coils for refillable-but-not-rebuildable systems aren't cheap either. It can be cheaper than cigarettes, but there's a good chance it won't be significantly so if you aren't buying in bulk and are replacing your coils often. Disposables vapes and cartridge systems are so addictive and easy to use anywhere that they are more expensive than cigarettes in my experience.

One thing this could be cool for is games like Goldeneye, which is hard to play on PC because it expects that weird joystick input. It would be awesome to have a native Goldeneye port with normal mouse behaviour like other FPSes.
Theft is also a problem of political will. If people would just not steal, the problem of theft would be solved. For some definition of "solution", it is a solution. But not a useful or realistic one. It's just not going to happen in any reasonable timeframe. Only if human nature itself changes in some distant future. Same thing applies to environmental damage.
Crypto is crunching random meaningless numbers. AI is crunching real world data. They are not the same. But AI should not be viewed as a problem. The real problem is that some people don't want others to have the same stuff as they. They want to work 1 hour while the other guy has to work 100. Interest on interest.
I spent the summer of 1972 programming via the ArpaNET. I had no school computing budget to use, so I rented a $12/mo 300 baud dialup modem and dialed into the UCLA TIP, which allowed me to spend the day programming PDP-10 assembly on Harvard's machine. Harvard had no (free) storage, so in the evenings I would send my files to Stanford's PDP-10, conveniently using the disk space of a professor on sabbatical.
Trading becoming centralized in the US is a different thing from trading happening exclusively on the NYSE.

As far as I understand, we are so far away from that reality since Reg NMS that we are facing the opposite problems, if anything: A proliferation of markets that brokers are obliged to trade at in the interest of providing "the best price", the combination of which has created a giant industry of latency arbitrageurs.
Im sorry if it’s a trivial question, but why does a “dumb” forwarder have to decrypt the packet? I only need to tunnel/forward it, static destination IP, there are no decisions taken on the base of the SNI as far as I can tell.

The steam deck has way more than enough resources to power through any and all N64 emulation so that wouldn't change much there. I'm specifically talking about something $50 retro handhelds and the like.

For example Mario64 and Ocarina of Time are completely reverse engineered and have native support for Windows and Linux and they run perfectly on those systems as where they really struggle when trying to emulate.
It really depends on how "standard of living" is measured in the first place. I live in Europe and make top 5% percentile income, live a pretty decent life that doesn't require a car, in a very energy-efficient apartment. In the US I would likely not have that option, would likely be forced to have a car, would have less vacation days, would have to navigate a nightmarishly complicated healthcare system, and survive some school shootings. Yes, I would make more money, potentially live in a bigger house, but it is debatable if that would automatically be a higher living standard.

EDIT: Also worth mentioning: for a huge chunk of Americans, living an European standard of living would be a huge improvement.

The point of branded types is, among other things, that you do not need to introduce a wrapper class which consumes additional memory.

Yes they’re synthetic. Pills take much longer than pouches since they have to go through the digestive system, whereas pouches steadily release nicotine that is absorbed quickly by the gums.

Method of consumption is definitely important. I couldn’t fully switch to vapes until I found one that had the same “throat feel” as my American Spirits. Not just the type of nicotine (salts) but the exact brand of vaporizer and coil style. Just like people prefer the taste and ritual of coffee to caffeine pills.
I always thought it seemed likely that most needle in a haystack tests might run into the issue of the model just encoding some idea of 'out of place-ness' or 'significance' and querying on that, rather than actually saying something meaningful about generalized retrieval capabilities. Does that seem right? Is that the motivation for this test?

> Production HBase clusters typically used a primary-standby setup with six data replicas for fast disaster recovery, which, however, came at an extremely high infra cost at our scale.

This is the real killer. HBase uses Hadoop for its replication. That replication does 3 copies in the same data center. If you're a company that requires online data of this scale, you probably also have several other data centers or clouds. Having to replicate entire datasets 3x for every new data center is cost-prohibitive.

That, along with the fact that HBase has issues at NVMe speeds and throughputs, are true issues.

If you see footnote 1: "In a later paper where the researchers caught up with these same students again, the difference between the Social and Emotional programs had mysteriously disappeared."

It almost seems as if the researchers triggered something resembling the Streisand effect. The Social and Emotional programs were obviously intended to discourage the kids from smoking, but participation in those programs was only serving to keep the kids' attention on smoking, and making some of them curious.

The kids might also have gotten the message that trying smoking is okay, as long as it's not related to peer pressure or feelings, but one's inherent curiosity. Programs designed to produce resilience against peer pressure will not block smoking that is not caused by peer pressure.

I did not get the briefcase in my DARE education. What I did get is a cop telling me that my parents having a glass of wine with dinner or a cigarette after work was just as bad a them using cocaine, and that you could OD and die on weed. All drugs are equally bad.

A few years later when my friends were smoking weed and laughed at my concerns, and I realized I’d been lied to, I pretty much did everything under the sun.

An actual education would have let me make better choices about my recreational drug use as a young person.

It actually did work incredibly well (at least in the US). Smoking went from something the majority of the American population did that was present in almost all private and public spaces to something only a small minority does in a small number of places.

Whether or not you agree with the methods, I think it is necessary to recognize that the methods worked.

I'd be curious to see the science on enhanced plant growth; my understanding is that the benefits of increased CO2 fade very quickly. I believe we can already see plant pores evolving to be smaller as they were in previous times when the Earth had greater CO2 levels.

About the only thing that gives me hope is SRM, but it's a half-assed solution at best. A world with 800ppm CO2 and a dimmed sun via aerosols is not the Earth that I was born to; it is probably not possible to fully understand the affects.

> The reasoning given was that even though he was situated in Ukraine, he was doing crimes in the US by abetting Americans in copyright infringement. This seems somewhat reasonable to me. If a Ukrainian was hacking American computer networks from Ukraine, should he also be immune from US prosecution?

But he wasn't actively doing anything to Americans or American networks like hacking. He was hosting a website where people, including Americans, could post links, and use links to download pirated content. The fact that Americans broke their country's laws is a crime they committed, not him.

The judge's reasoning would imply that anything that happens online where Americans could access it and is criminal in the US automatically becomes a crime that happened in the US, which is crazy and total bullshit. Why isn't the US extraditing Hungarian porn actors and porn companies for showing online where Americans can see it exhibitionist porn which would be illegal in many places in the US?

It's a ridiculous case.

But you can bet that if France tries to extradite someone posting antisemitic bullshit on X related to France (e.g. about the recent desecration of the Shoah memorial), US courts will refuse extradition.
