>The thing with handmade and unique items is that the definition of “as advertised “ differs quite a lot. Your definition is not the same as mine.

A fair point, although photos provided on the site, as well as seller reputation can (and mostly the latter on darknet sites, but both are useful) address that issue. What's more, an escrow system that requires the buyer to confirm receipt and quality for the seller to receive payment could have an even stronger impact on such issues.

>Also customer tend to game that to get free products which makers hate.

Which is why darknet sites have dispute resolution policies and processes, as well as ratings of sellers and buyers. Those buyers who try to take advantage are shunned pretty quickly as bad actors and unprofitable to boot.

You can't game a system that won't play with you.

I suggest you check out some darknet markets[0] -- not to purchase anything that might raise the hackles of your local government, but rather to see how a marketplace which doesn't have the sanction of law/government/the courts tries to ensure fairness and minimize rip offs and bad actors.

If you do, I think you'll find that many of the tools used in those environments would improve user satisfaction (on both sides) and create a much better marketplace. Even a "legitimate" marketplace like Etsy.

Edit: fixed grammar, added references.

Pentium Pro, was it a lemon? [video]
How does it compare to converting each number to a large fixed-point integer (implemented as N 64-bit integers), summing them with exact integer math (order-invariant), and converting back to floating point at the end?

The sum part can be done with AVX-512 [1] if N=8, and N=8 is probably enough for a lot of real world summations. The conversion back to floating point at the end is only done once so not very costly.

The conversion to fixed point is probably the worst part. Is there a faster way to do it than a loop that extracts one 64-bit integer per iteration? If not we could convert several input numbers at a time with SIMD. But it would be nifty to be able to convert one double to N integers with SIMD instead of a loop.

- The users were the original arty-crafty people selling actually handmade products

- Businesses come in to exploit the users by flipping AliExpress crap at 10x margins, Etsy does nothing to stop this because $$$

- Etsy realizes they could make even more money off businesses by eg forcing them to buy ads from Etsy once their income exceeds $10k

- Now both users and businesses are pissed off and Etsy has entered a death spiral

Signedness doesn't affect anything here, as long as the representation is in two's complement. The negation of x (i.e. -x) in two's complement is ~x + 1. The interpretation of the bits as signed or unsigned doesn't change any of the following steps.

I search Google about 90% less using Firefox because I never have to use Google to find a site I was recently at.

In Firefox:

Add ^ to show only matches in your browsing history.
Add * to show only matches in your bookmarks.
Add + to show only matches in bookmarks you've tagged.
Add % to show only matches in your currently open tabs.
Add # to show only matches where your terms are part of a tag or title.
Add $ to show only matches where your terms are part of the address.
Add ? to show only search suggestions.

Armed with this, and &UDM=14 on my browser's Google Search, I use Google a couple times a day to find new things and without the AI slop, product ads, and other nonsense. That doesn't fix the shitty results themselves, but with a little bit of -quora and -reddit I can usually get what I'm after in the first 5-10 links.

Stop feeding that monster. Cut your usage. Find other tools that accomplish your goals (often faster and cheaper too) and then use Google for what it's good for, the occasional web search. With uBlock Origin and &udm=14 Google web search still beats Bing or Kagi or any of the Bing-based products like DDG.

Google Search sucking is only really an end user problem if you depend on it for a lot. If you only need to touch it a dozen times a week for a total of 5 minutes, it's not too terrible.

A lot of discussion in this thread assumes that hikikomori are a very new phenomenon. I see that they appear in the psychiatric literature as early as 1978. I also see that the number of hikikomori in Japan varies by survey, and is hard to measure, but still seems to be roughly the same as it was in 2010, if not a little lower.

What to make of that? Because the most obvious and most common explanations for them seems to be the internet, smartphones, and anxiety about the future (global warming, the economy, etc.). But if those were the reasons for hikikomori, I'd assume that the number of hikokomori would have increased significantly in the last 15 years, not stayed roughly the same, as it has. The gravity of the internet in our culture feels like it has increased exponentially. Climate fear doesn't feel exponentially higher, but subjectively it still feels a lot more widespread to me. Why not commensurately more people living as hikikomori, if the phenomenon supposedly tracks these factors?

Will they contribute to noise pollution?

My neighborhood seems to have dramatically increasing noise pollution in the last couple years. The abuses have gotten ridiculous (and often gratuitously obnoxious) enough that I suspect backlash is imminent. Until there's serious regulation, I feel like I have to ask, since the noise environment seems to be a reckless free-for-all at the moment.
I often find myself using this site for historical numbers:

https://jcmit.net/diskprice.htm

for general reference, there are seperate sites linked to for RAM or SSD prices.

Keep in mind, the site I posted lists the absolute cheapest $/MB on the market at that time. I think that’s a useful number in order to have somewhat of a benchmark. But any particular drive (like yours) is prob not the most rock bottom, cheapest per MB.

From the numbers listed there, I would’ve guessed 1996 or so.
There is an ExploreGPTs feature that OpenAI provides. Has anyone experimented with trying to make one of these that successfully does what you want (e.g. more concise, better code examples, whatever)?
I do not mean to discount this interesting iota, however, I had a similar realization when I was 7; whether it coinciding with learning of the Copernicus principle is merit or raw luck notwithstanding, I saw my siblings as none other than another family in another house: all others would view me, and us, as neighbors, and we are all side-characters in each others story.

That thought is "sonder" - although it differs from what you describe, it has some parallels.

Another OpenAI Researcher Quits, Issuing Cryptic Warning
platonic

Yeah, I find that hard to believe.
I strongly disagree. The "thing" is not in the parts, nor even in the whole collection of the parts, BUT in how the parts connect with each other.

I often think about it like I have a rectangular area of 8 x 8 bricks on placed on their smaller side next to each other so each of them takes up a square area on the surface.

Then I want to add something to my collection of bricks, I want to add information to it.

So what do I add to it? I add nothing. Instead I take away some of those tiles. After that the missing pieces together form up some letter, say K, or any other. Now I have the information "K" which perhaps according to our agreed upon code means "OK".

So I have added information to that square of tiles, by taking away some of them. I think that is marvelous. To say that "The Whole is bigger than its Parts" is catchy but not all there is to it. It is more apt to say "The Whole is the Collection of its Parts AND their Connections".

There's more than a few pieces of circumstantial evidence that point to this level of higher consciousness being defined by a non-linear perception of time. Not least among those, the fact that people have been using powerful psychoactive drugs in a spiritual context and claiming to be able to do just that for just about as long as people have been doing things in a spiritual context. It's framed different ways - visions, prophecies, inspirations from the Gods, reliving the past, etc. - but bending the arrow of time is the defining universal characteristic of many, many drugs across the history of the human race. If we're going to talk about higher levels of consciousness, that seems like the obvious place to start.
Yes it is written by LLM. I generated 50 to 100 pages, till i finally composed it. The english version took almost 20 hours to write, LLM's output (Llama3 70b) plus human editing.

Translating it was a little more than 3 hours for modern greek and 5 more for ancient greek.

LLM's excel at following a narration from the standpoint of anything you can imagine, and we humans are not that great at that.

For some reason, we cannot put ourselves in the shoes of another person, or a packet in that case, no matter how intelligent or how educated we are. I would never be able to put myself in the shoes of a packet moving over the internet without LLM's help. For the life of me, that's impossible.

I thought it was very interesting exercise, imagine for example reading Tanenbaum's OS book from the standpoint of a process. Tanenbaum is an excellent writer don't get me wrong, but in a first person narration it is a bit more lively.

Now if it is not good, if you don't like it, don't upvote it, downvote it, or flag it.

How do you meet new people?
How do you meet new people?

I feel like everyone asked themselves this question at some point in their life. If you just moved to a new city, if you just feel like breaking through your current social circle, if your old friendships just fell through the cracks of time, if you are sucked into the "corporate life", if the big city gives you lonely time, and in a thousand more situations: how the f*k do you meet new people??

Surely you can't just go around and start talking to strangers. I mean, some of you might be able to do that, but that's not for me, I ain't that material.

If you feel the same, hear me out: all we need is just a bridge between all of us. There are loads of us, but we are just all disconnected!

I made an app for this, it works like this:

1. You find a meetup that sounds like fun and book your spot
2. You get paired with a group of people that booked the same meetup
3. You go to the meetup and hang out with your new mates

The cool thing is that it is the app itself that creates and arranges the meetups, so you don't need to plan anything. You just browse a list of meetups and pick one, go there, and have a laugh with some nice people.

If it sounds like fun to you, feel free to sign up or drop a comment here. I would appreciate any feedback. I think something like this would make the world a better place. If you don't think so, please shout, I am craving for feedback!

So, you think people are too stupid or unwilling to wear a mask that authorities promised was beneficial, despite years of practice and constant browbeating. Of course I don't deny that unwilling/unmotivated people exist, but that should not preclude the generation of a convincing study somewhere in the whole world. It should at least be possible to collect data in healthcare facilities where masks were strictly imposed.

>The linked study DOES NOT show that masks are ineffective.

Right, it is a survey arguing that existing positive studies are inadequate to show benefits from masking.

>The universe does not owe you proof, and especially does not owe you satisfying proof in the form you seek.

The universe might not owe it to me to make things evident. However, people who want to argue with me do owe me proof. Especially when the outcome is a major imposition on my personal autonomy, and they have failed to collect adequate evidence over decades. We can argue that masks sound like they ought to do something for various particular scenarios, but that is a far cry from proving they are worth the time and effort to implement. Are they worth using in a room full of people who are eating and conversing without masks? Certainly not, even if they do work to some extent.
