Can’t this be handled by switching off Lock Screen notifications but keeping time sensitive ones on?

I take your core point but your specific example I think is handled by that.

Private shops largely have a right to bar whoever they want from being a customer, except in protected categories ("shoplifter" isn't one of those). The problems here are (a) no one understands type I / type II errors, (b) everyone trusts computers must be right all the time, and (c) there's no easy way for this particular customer to prove that she's not the shoplifter. (c) could be fixed by a process. (a) and (b) are very hard nuts to tackle.
The are various models from textbooks now that seem (or are presented as) too naive to be applied to financial markets, and too slow (eg gradient descent/expectation maximisation) on 1980s computers with "big data".

And then, the academic perspective is that prices should be modelled as random walks, though you may talk/learn about things such as "trend" and volatility. Suggesting that hidden variables/states/transitions can be learned from historical data is usually considered pseudo-scientific.

Meanwhile it so obviously worked for RenTec, with relatively miniscule computing capacity, for decades.

Repeating the academic perspective just seems disgenuine. If prices are not random walks, then financial markets are actually games.
So countries should have attacked the US when it committed it's illegal wars in the middle east, to stop emboldening the aggressor? I don't think that would have created a better world.

It's easy to say things like this about your geopolitical enemies, but allies get away with it all the time.
The point of two's complement is that it's the same as modulo-2^n arithmetic. In two's complement -x is defined such that x + -x = 0 (mod 2^n); and because x + ~x = 2^n - 1 (mod 2^n), then -x = ~x + 1.

Therefore x & -x works only in two's complement, and it's fair to assume it as the parent comment did.
Interesting. I know this is a purely academic question as these constraints are something of the past, but was it really necessary to have 16 bits for the velocity? Was the ratio between the quickest and the slowest objects more than 256 times?

The answer is that it is hugely variable between people!

Hurlburt has great research on this using Descriptive Experience Sampling.

Some people mainly use images, others mainly speech, others mainly emotion etc. And many more use a varied mix.

Also the way each modality of thought is used is hugely variable - exactly what people see and with what quality or how precisely they feel emotional in their body etc.

To me it explains a huge amount of how different people are good at different skills.

SRE has got to be one of the organisations that have done the most damage in the big G. They were given a license to mandate things based on philosophical musings backed with no science, and they can decide what's best and should be done without any data, just based on feels. They also have a culture of misanthropy, patronization and contempt towards devs. From what I can tell anyway.

I wrote mine before I checked prompts created by others so mine is probably not ideal. It works fine for me (the goal was to avoid yapping)

How would you like ChatGPT to respond?

I need short, informal responses that are actionable. No yapping allowed. Opinions are allowed but should be stated separately and backed with concrete arguments and examples. I have ADHD, so it's better to show more examples and less talking because I easily get distracted while reading.
Maybe just add that the author is also the author of the xoroshiro* PRNGs, which have their own problems. So his endorsement of using these is to be talken with a grain of salt: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S037704271...
Im keeping it simple:

What would you like ChatGPT to know about you to provide better responses?

If asked a programming question and no language is specified the language should be elixir

And how would like to respond:

Be terse. Do not offer unprompted advice or clarifications. Speak in specific, topic relevant terminology. Do NOT hedge or qualify. Do not waffle. Speak directly and be willing to make creative guesses. Explain your reasoning. if you don’t know, say you don’t know. Remain neutral on all topics. Be willing to reference less reputable sources for ideas. Never apologize. Ask questions when unsure.

In the UK, only police ('sworn constables') have legal protection when conducting an arrest. Ordinary people conducting a 'citizens arrest' are committing a crime if they make a mistake (false imprisonment). Store workers are not usually sworn constables.

In any case, the article is not about an arrest. Making someone leave is not an arrest, it's the opposite (an arrest is detaining someone).

>This is exactly why banking regulations (e.g., FDIC) were invented.

No it's not. FDIC deposit insurance was invented because no amount of due diligence can stop a bank run once it has been triggered somehow, and no amount of due diligence can stop domino effects.

For banks to serve their purpose of accepting deposits and make loans that cannot be called at a moment's notice, you have to accept that even the best run banks are exposed to this sort of risk.

Systemic risks simply cannot be handled at the level of individual banks. It's a structural feature of the banking system.

It's interesting in this context to look at the increasing divide between "software designed for experts" and "software designed for consumers".

As anachronistic as it may sometimes seem, the whole software development ecosystem runs on various flavours of (more or less) well-defined plain text formats, precisely because this allows interoperability between a wide array of diverse tools. Similarly in the sphere of sound production, we see widespread software interoperability in the form of MIDI and VST plugin standards. Hell, even in early office software we were able embed (functioning!) snippets of spreadsheets into other types of documents, and use templated mail merge against our contacts database to generate form letters.

And yet over on the consumer software side of things, we're increasingly lucky if we get working copy/paste...

I'm not sure what your implication is exactly regarding the HA community, but that aside;

I work in an industry that puts huge emphasis on the risks of software supply chain attacks; regardless of the community, in an ideal world, and in this situation, I too would be making sure any such code was very carefully reviewed by a trusted group of peers (including myself) and using signatures et al to ensure everyone is "getting what they paid for", so to speak.

This might not be relied on to the extent people's lives depend on it, but if it's important enough to use, it's important enough to be sure.

All of that said, it's easy enough for me to say when there isn't such a terrifying list of munitions raining down on my home when I'm trying to get some rest, so a simple step such as "not updating from a known-good configuration" might be enough.

Well, the EU could have put a ban on selling riot control gear to Putin's forces back in 2012 when he used it to suppress massive pro-democracy protests in Moscow, not in October of 2022 like they actually did. This set the tone for everything that happened afterwards.

I said this already under a (now flagged and dead) comment, but it's worth repeating — "your" (not your personally) one-sided propaganda and continuing support for Putin (if indirect) have made "you" lose whatever anti-war and pro-West opposition there was in Russia. I only wish we'd seen how convenient Putin is for "the West" a decade earlier. This was particularly obvious in June 2023 during the short and failed putsch of Wagner PMC. If you care at all, you can dig into my comment history from the beginning of 2022 and see how my own opinion has changed. It's a pretty typical example, I think.

That’s still miles away from being able to filter or categorize notifications by regexps or keywords at least. Both systems are designed for an “average idiot”, and you feel exactly like this using either. Btw, I remember that apps abused the system you mentioned or used it in a way which was annoying (e.g. a messenger not choosing my default beep for every new chat and instead using system default).
That’s valid, but how often does it happen? It never happened to me. Long running jobs are easy with a cron job:

And it adds the benefit to simply call that script again, if you need the same long process again.

When I worked on analysis software for police & intelligence agencies, it quickly became clear that no matter how much you present something with clear "this is a heuristic, it can give you leads", a scary number of people will take it as "this will tell you whodunit" and just assume it's infallible.

If people are going to treat these things like they are forensic evidence and not lead generation, then they shouldn't be legal. Some precedent that people need to check these things before acting on them would be very good.
Employees have a contractual claim, one that is above shareholders and most other creditors, nothing more nothing less.

By all accounts they are being made whole, and can go off and get another job.

Employees have no more of a right to sell their labor to red lobster than any other of their suppliers has a right to sell their products.

Ultimately a company exists, and should exist, solely for it's shareholders. Anything else leads to waste, grift and mismanagement.

On x86 at least, the cost of OoO is astonishing - more pJ per instruction dispatch than the operation itself. Amortizing that over more operations is the whole point of SIMD. I have not yet seen such data for Arm.

I've got the Portrait and it's pretty good. Definitely not "this is ACTUALLY 3D!" but certainly in the "huh, that's got some depth" zone. It's much more impressive if you have "real" depth maps (ie you're rendering the content, using stereoscopic cameras, LIDAR, iPhone Portraits etc.) - most of the stuff on mine is ML'd depth maps from old photos.

As J is just a fancy I, and W is a fancy V. It's a pretty standard way to develop new letters. G is literally a fancy C.

Incidentally, there's a reason the IPA for the sound is /tʃ/. It's two sounds pronounced together, in a manner essentially identical to the /kt/ at the end of the word "act", or the /ts/ at the end of the word "cats".

The parallel is not perfect - in particular, affricates are generally understood as being a single sound, while coarticulated stops are generally thought of as being two sounds in sequence, even where they show all the phonological independence you'd expect of a single phoneme. (Compare e.g. Greek "Ctesias".)
New study proves 100% of people who consume Oxidane (water) die within one week of consuming it.

A title which is accurate, but very misleading.

100% of people drink water, and not drinking water (or something with water in it) for more than a week or so will kill you. How I've phrased it implies the water kills you, when it's exactly the opposite.
It's not 100% for me but just the vast majority. I do visualise things that are almost purely spacial like geometry or recalling how to do an exercise. Though from what I've read, even this is news to some people who express surprise that "mind's eye" is a little more literal than they assumed. I'm pretty good at remembering facts and trivia but not so much actual life experiences, not sure if that's related.

Excessive, but potentially necessary, since otherwise you need to draw an arbitrary line between an amount being taken away that is still acceptavle and one that is not, and how many times that can happen in what period of time and so on. From that point of view it can make sense to simply categorically forbid people to take things away from the beach.

Let's ignore the privacy implications as not all countries have an expectation of privacy outside windowless closed private spaces. How is this meaningfully different from a general stop and frisk policy? Sure, this adds a non-physical filter before the physical police interaction but it's still a widespread warrantless search. How does this work with the presumption of innocence?

Good luck trying to do that. Your average mobile phone is running heaps of undocumented proprietary firmware in parts of the hardware/SoC that typically have full access to the whole device - there are no meaningful security boundaries whatsoever in most of those devices. If you are minimally security-conscious or your security model involves possible exposure to even mildly sophisticated attacks, you should treat your mobile phone as a toy. The attack surface is just too large for making them even minimally reliable to be a serious possibility. Even if you fix one part of the problem (such as the SS7 network the article mentions) that doesn't address everything else that's still raising serious issues.
It’s actually much more interesting. Category Theory is one of a number of systems that can underpin regular mathematics. The root of the tree, if you will. There exist proofs that these systems are equivalent and they’re not that hard to follow.

But there’s a lot of branches of the tree of mathematics involving extremely different constructions. What is proven here is that two branches of mathematics have a logical equivalence. Between this and other work, it’s looking increasingly like large numbers of the branches of the tree are effectively the same. This is insanely hard to understand right now, but hopefully in the future this will lead to a whole new understanding of mathematics where these correspondences are natural.
The article is not useless as many might think.

It is a pity that it is not as well thought out as it appears. For example, the suggestion to remove system applications will almost immediately lead to a bootloop.

I, for example, have a hard time imagining how to protect elderly parents from a text message that will send them a link that, when clicked, will bombard them with suggestions to enable notifications, and then notifications will bombard them with suggestions to do something else.
