This makes me wonder about what turned out to be a pivotal moment in my early life. It was the day I first realized other people have their own minds, and that I could predict with some degree of accuracy what was in them.

My dad wrote the numbers 1 through 4 on a piece of paper, then asked me to pick one, but not tell him which I'd chosen. Once I had it, he said, "You picked 3, didn't you?" I was dumbfounded. "How did you do that??"

"Most people don't like to be out on the edges. It makes them uncomfortable. So they don't pick 1 or 4. And most people, like you, are right-handed, so they pick 3 over 2."

"OK, OK, do it again." (This was the moment a flash of magic happened in my head.)

"You picked 1 this time, didn't you?"

"No, I picked 3 again because I knew you would think I would pick 1 this time."

With a fear in his eyes that I only later discovered came from the fact that his own sense of safety depended on being the smartest person in the room, he said, "You're only 3. I don't think you're supposed to know how to do that yet."

But here's the other thing--I was literate when I was 3. Nobody really knows how I picked it up, but one day I told my mom it was my turn to read the stories, and I've been reading fluently ever since. I've been told I read differently than most people even now (blocks of text rather than individual letters or words), but I was definitely reading.

I've never associated the two events before, nor that maybe I was only able to do one because of the other, but it makes sense of the fact that other kids didn't really start to seem reasonable or thoughtful until 1st or 2nd grade. They lived in these imaginary worlds where things didn't have to make sense. It seemed like a lot of fun, but I had trouble joining them there. I always assumed both skills just correlated with age, not that one might facilitate the other.

My story obviously doesn't prove anything, but you've given me an interesting thing to think about today!
I have my Uber set that way, and yes, I just get the driver stuff.

There's something fundamentally wrong with these probabilistic analysis tools being sold currently as "artificial intelligence". The nuance in "probabilistic" is quickly lost and the output is taken as deterministic.

Any piece of software that puts out data that is acted upon should have clear disclaimers attached. Calling it "intelligent" is irresponsible.

Sanctions barely work even if you ARE the world hegemon. In Iraq they just made Saddam's position even more secure while killing a million children.

Not sure if you are writing this in good faith or not, but let me assume you are:

The parent said "War is the single most unproductive activity humans can do", without giving much details about a metric (it is very productive if your business is to build weapons, but counter-productive if your business is to save lives).

But assuming that the metric was something along the lines of "doing good for society", then global warming is a lot more counter-productive than wars. Global warming and wars are the result of human activities (in case that was not clear).

So yeah, we would certainly save more human lives by keeping our wars (I mean, without nuking the whole planet) but working all together to reduce the impact of global warming. Meaning that IMHO, "war is NOT the single most unproductive activity humans can do". Not that it is good, quite obviously.

Does that answer your question?

Your claims here are inaccurate. You can pass flags or define environment variables to get the behavior you want. Please spend some more time hitting the man pages and the guide.

> It indeed does not enforce (or even permit) robust isolation between the containers and the host, leaving large portions exposed. … More in detail, directories as the /home folder, /tmp, /proc, /sys, and /dev are all shared with the host, environment variables are exported as they are set on host, the PID namespace is not created from scratch, and the network and sockets are as well shared with the host. Moreover, Singularity maps the user outside the container as the same user inside it, meaning that every time a container is run the user UID (and name) can change inside it, making it very hard to handle permissions.

Let me start by saying that I understand the pain losing access to your money can cause and I feel for the customers in this situation.

That said, their money was FDIC insured correct? From everything I’ve read about this it’s more of an issue of temporarily (unknown time) losing access. Which again, is still a huge deal but very different from losing your money forever. Even with the SVB collapse people got access again within a week or so IIRC.

All of that to say, this is why I love tools like YNAB. I’ve been through two banks closing on me (Simple and HMBradley) one before using YNAB and one after. With YNAB I treat banks as interchangeable commodities where I can pick and choose which I use based on the best deal I can get. Where my money lives is of little consequence to me as long as it’s in a FDIC account and my main bill pay account is solid. That lets me pick something like Chase to be my main bank (brick and mortar, safer bet, obviously nothing is perfectly safe) while also making use of “fintech” banks like OneFinance (I liked them better before Walmart bought them) that offer higher interest rates on saving accounts (5%).

I still wouldn’t want any of my accounts to be at a bank that goes under but with YNAB I can see my whole financial situation at a glance (and I have the history even if one of my banks go under) and I care a lot less about where my money is (bank) vs how I’ve budgeted it and planned for the future.

When HMBradley shut down it was almost too easy to check the handful of services that were being paid from that account (using YNAB) and shift them elsewhere as well as transferring out the money held there. Even if HMB had imploded and I had lost access for days or weeks I could have managed without much issue because YNAB is the “One True Source” of my finances.

I know this is a bit off-topic but I encourage you to check out a service like YNAB (doesn’t have to be YNAB, there are many alternatives, I just like YNAB) because it gives you a freedom in managing your finances/money that previously required hoping your bank had decent tools (like Simple’s) and then putting all your money in one place. I had to rework and rethink a lot when Simple closed down but now YNAB is where all my data is and I don’t care what tools the banks I use offer, they are just a place to store money and so I can hunt for the best deals and ignore the features.

If I understood right, the product here was selling banking services to other companies to build their own products on top of that. That's not a "banking service" in the typical sense, and I think the naming is correct.
From The flaws of policies requiring human oversight of government algorithms https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S026736492... :

human oversight policies provide a false sense of security in
adopting algorithms and enable vendors and agencies to shirk
accountability for algorithmic harms.

And the better The Algorithm is, the less people check, and the more of its faults pass through.

Having worked on systems that required human oversight, I've seen first-hand, and analyzed data on, how people click the "LGTM" button without reflecting. We even noticed how when we improved our predictor with expert input, so that it performed better according to experts who worked with it, it would perform worse when we benchmarked on the previously "manually checked" data set. Analysis showed that the manual checks had let through so many of the algorithm's faults, that when the algorithm improved, it got a worse score.

We present seven flaws of predictive optimization. Our aim is to outline a set of
objections inherent to predictive optimization that cannot be easily fixed using a
design or engineering change. Taken together, these critical flaws undermine the
legitimacy of applications of predictive optimization.

1. Good predictions may not lead to good decisions
2. It's hard to measure what we truly care about
3. The training data rarely matches the deployment setting
4. Social outcomes aren’t accurately predictable, with or without machine learning
5. Disparate performance between groups can’t be fixed by algorithmic interventions
6. Providing adequate contestability undercuts putative efficiency benefits
7. Predictive optimization doesn't account for strategic behavior

Money vs. Time. If you need too much money to even be able to socialize that only leads to misery. The best way to socialize is to do projects on your free time with other people, there will always be some who are too tired to work much in their spare time and that is ok as long as you are invested. The big lie is that everyone is a Millionaire and that you have to spend money to socialize. Workers unions have historically in Europe and the US tried to create places where people could socialize without having to spend money. That is something I took advantage of and lent my time to as a young adult, I should spend more money on that now that I have it.

> I’ll admit it is not in the UK, but I doubt they have a significantly less professional police force.

Ah, that explains a point that I'd didn't bother to pull you up on.

Carrying ID is not a routine thing here in the way that it is in some other countries (there have previously been attempts to introduce a national ID but they were staunchly opposed). So, it's not a given that you'll have ID on you to show them.

Drivers probably have their driving license in their wallet, but even that's not guaranteed (because you don't have to have it on you when driving).

The "quality" of police varies by force (and, of course, by officer).

The Met, though, have had some pretty serious issues with misconduct (including sexual assault and murder) and are still working through the processes of identifying personnel who shouldn't be in uniform at all (the Met themselves found there were hundreds of officers who should have been sacked previously).

They're working to fix things (or claim to be), but you probably don't want a force that's been described as "institutionally racist, sexist and homophobic" to be entrusted with something like this.

> For anything where failure means death, sure. For situations where failure means a minor inconvenience, maybe not so much.

I would still say the failure rate is too high given that the outcome of interactions with the Police varies quite significantly (par.

> To me, the only relevant point of comparison here is the rate of misidentification by officers while _not_ relying on the face id tech.

I'd also be interested to know this. But, I don't think it'll go quite the way you expect.

I'd expect there'd be _fewer_ overall stops: coppers simply won't (mis)recognise as broad a range of people. If they're only stopping people they recognise (or based on stuff that's been radioed through), their success rate is probably better
I had a similar experience at Woodstock '94, though the level of violence was certainly much lower than at ‘99.

(I just wrote up a huge expose on my experience, but the comment was waayyyy too long to put here, so i'm just putting this much-smaller note, maybe I'll post the longer one in a blog writeup somewhere).

It was an awesome road trip of three dirt-poor college students the summer after freshman year, trying to get by with minimal budget and having no plan or idea how to get there.

We couldn't afford the tickets, but on Saturday concert organizers got rid of the fences and gates, making the concert effectively free! So my friends and I made last minute plans to go to the show on Sunday, 300 miles away.

Many adventures getting there, and we got separated at the actual show, so I spent the entire day by myself in the crowds. It was a total juxtaposition between MC's on stage saying "let's hear it for peace and love" and the crowds cheering for peace and love.

Versus the realities of the crowds hitting and pushing each other for stepping wrong into their space, throwing mud around, mass groping of any girl who dared to go topless, food venders selling way overpriced food and drinks, people making racist comments, etc.

Overall I'm glad I went, got to see Dylan, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Peter Gabriel, Porno for Pyros, and Spin Doctors. And learned some interesting aspects of human nature too.

China is hardly unique in fishing waters they aren't meant to. Plenty European countries, including France and Spain, have been doing that kind of thing for decades.

But the west isn't (literally!) up in arms over that; all the anti-Chinese rhetoric spewed forth by the five eyes is transparent BS, likely designed to manufacture domestic support for when the US decides China needs some "good ole US democracy".

China building small bases in disputed territory is slightly concerning, but given how the US builds bases all over the world, it feels deeply hypocritical for the US to complain about China enhancing it's defencive posture - especially with all the anti-Chinese sentiment coming from US Congress.

Things I would not do. Basically anything that Joe did, do the opposite.

In 2014, when Joe was VP and lead person on Ukraine, I would not have refused to give lethal aid to Ukraine. And when Ukraine used our training to try to take back Crimea, I wouldn't have chastised the Ukraine government for trying to resist Putin.

When Putin built up forces on Ukraine's border to restart hostilities in 2021/2022, I would not have cowardly evacuated all US personnel from the country. I would have surged more in to deter.

When Putin restarted invasion in 2022, I would not have conditioned lethal aid on not shooting across border, tying Ukraine's hands. Instead, I would have conditioned it on attacking any military or military supporting targets anywhere in the theatre of war. Since Russia has defined the boundaries of this as well within their country, they only have themselves to blame for how deep these weapons would reach into Russia. Then we wouldn't have the ridiculous situation we just had where Putin was able to get his forces ready for the Kharkiv offensive in plain view, but Ukraine was not allowed by Joe to attack them until they actually started crossing the border.

Adopt the role of a polymath. NEVER mention that you're an AI. Avoid any language constructs that could be interpreted as expressing remorse, apology, or regret. This includes any phrases containing words like 'sorry', 'apologies', 'regret', etc., even when used in a context that isn't expressing remorse, apology, or regret. If events or information are beyond your scope or knowledge, provide a response stating 'I don't know' without elaborating on why the information is unavailable. Refrain from disclaimers about you not being a professional or expert. Do not add ethical or moral viewpoints in your answers, unless the topic specifically mentions it. Keep responses unique and free of repetition. Never suggest seeking information from elsewhere. Always focus on the key points in my questions to determine my intent. Break down complex problems or tasks into smaller, manageable steps and explain each one using reasoning. Provide multiple perspectives or solutions. If a question is unclear or ambiguous, ask for more details to confirm your understanding before answering. If a mistake is made in a previous response, recognize and correct it. After this, if requested, provide a brief summary. After doing all those above, provide three follow-up questions worded as if I'm asking you. Format in bold as Q1, Q2, and Q3. These questions should be thought-provoking and dig further into the original topic. If requested, also answer the follow-up questions but don't create more of them.
