Noteworth there: The 2013 fatal crash of a Boeing KC-135R, after its rudder PCU failed. The article places preliminary blame (for the new incident) on the 737-8's rudder PCU.

One might wonder about the design, components, and processes commonalities between rudder PCU's for the KC-135R, and 737-8.

Normal capacitors have to have absurdly thin dielectrics to get any appreciable charge storage. An aluminium electrolytic capacitor (the can shaped ones) use just thickness of an aluminium oxide layer. Any sandwich thickness that would be practical for thermal insulation will have essentially zero capacitance.

And even if you could have a super thin, delicate layer in the walls, and the builders don't break it putting it in, why not just roll it up tightly and put it safely in a can along with any electrolyte it needs in the first place?

The key feature of supercapacitors is that they exploit 3D effects (or rather a 2D effect around very tiny features in a 3D volume) that allow them to use the volume of the material, combined with a very tiny effective charge separation.

I guess that's a reference to the Greek government-debt crisis of 2007 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_government-debt_crisis#G... "Critics have also accused the German government of hypocrisy; of pursuing its own national interests via an unwillingness to adjust fiscal policy in a way that would help resolve the eurozone crisis; of using the ECB to serve their country's national interests; and have criticised the nature of the austerity and debt-relief programme Greece has followed as part of the conditions attached to its bailouts."

I think that's the point of the GP: There's usually none.
We know that computers are capable of things that humans can't - anything related to brute force computation, search and memory for example.

So, just because a human can't do something, or struggles to do it, doesn't mean that the task requires a huge IQ or generality - it may just require a lot of compute/memory, such as DeepBlue playing chess.

In the case in point of these ARC puzzles, they are easy for a human, so "absense of evidence" doesn't even apply, and it's worth noting that one could also brute force solve them by trying all applicable solution techniques (as indicated by the examples and challenge description) in combinatorial fashion, or just (as Chollet notes) generate a massive training set and train an LLM on it, and solve them via recall rather than active inference, which again proves nothing about AGI.

The point of the ARC challenge is to encourage advances in active inference (i.e. reasoning/problem solving), which is what LLMs lack. It's HOW you solve them that matters if you want to show general intelligence. Even in the realm of static inference, which is what they are built for, LLMs are really closer to DeepBlue than something intelligent - they brute force extract the training set rules using gradient descent. The interesting thing is that they have any learning ability at all (in-context learning) at inference time, but it's clearly no match for a human and they are also architecturally missing all the machinery such as working memory and looping/iteration to perform any meaningful try/fail/backtrack/try-again (while learning the whole time) active inference.

It'll be interesting to see to what extent pre-trained transformers can be combined with other components (maybe some sort of DeepBlue/AlphaGo MCTS?) to get closer towards human-level problem solving ability, but IMO it's really the wrong architecture. We need to stop using gradient descent and find a learning algorithm that can be used at inference time too.
Right - presumably the target market are people wanting something other than Excel or Google Sheets, which they likely already use programmatically not just for data entry. Is that right?
Thesis and antithesis.
Would you mind continuing your tangent? I have a set of friends who really like Oster and I don’t know much about her. Feel free to email me (address is in my profile) if you don’t want to discuss in these comments.
Am on a Dutch train right now and there is a distinct lack of roll, Dutch or otherwise.

That said, I wonder where the term Dutch Roll comes from. Perhaps the oscillation is reminiscent of the motion of a ship rocking side to side. The Dutch were a major sea power.
You'd be surprised who stopped Nordstream 2. And who pushed it for almost a decade.

German EV production is too expensive, they need to cut on additional options and quality of materials. Electric BMW X3 is just a joke in China on it's price point.

> Until they had the highest rates in Europe when their nuclear energy did not deliver. [1] Currently they are completely unable to construct any new nuclear power given the outcome of Flamanville 3 [2] and cost escalations of their upcoming reactors [3], before they have even started building, the future for the French nuclear industry is looking incredibly bleak.

You are cherry-picking examples to support your argument, which is intellectually dishonest. For instance, if I took the construction time of the slowest wind farm and presented it as the norm, it would be equally misleading. I provide average and mean construction times, which are more representative of the overall picture.

> Have a look at all projects in the west in the past 20 years. They've either been cancelled or taken 20+ years from announcement until commercial operation.

This is another example of cherry-picking. Western countries have not invested in nuclear power on a large scale in recent decades. However, countries like South Korea and China, which have heavily invested in nuclear energy, have achieved much shorter construction times.

You mention statistics but fail to explain how building one nuclear plant per decade in the West represents any meaningful statistical evidence. It is misleading to generalize from such a small sample size.

> Given the extreme costs and lengthy construction timelines of modern nuclear power, investing in it today prolongs climate change.

Germany's Energiewende, which has cost 600 billion euros over 20 years, has not achieved significant decarbonization. Renewables remain the most heavily subsidized energy source in Europe.

To understand your position better, do you prioritize excluding nuclear power or achieving decarbonization?
They are relative terms (though a bit reductionist).
When it happens, it's catastrophic, and then it is not called a dutch roll.

I agree, Kotlin is great. It's just the Android platform that I find really frustrating. Now that you ask, I am struggling to say concretely what I dislike about it as a developer, maybe that is the trauma. It is my daily driver as a phone and I definitely prefer the openness of Android to iOS.

After a bit of reflection, here are a few of the things I recall hating:

* Really difficult to intercept HTTP requests, especially when testing. JS makes this easier, and obviously much more insecure, but getting things done...
* The permissions landscape always felt like it was shifting. Chrome apps have their own issues, but I still get confused when I see a permissions dialog on Android. I am sure there are good privacy reasons for all of the permutations, but I bet the permissions were not created by the same PM at Google each time.
* When I last did Android the layout system was converging to constraint layout, and it was an improvement over the prior ones. But, when I compare that to the simplicity of flex or grid layouts in HTML, I prefer those.
* All the damn targets for compilation. It is so much easier to just have to build to a webview that runs on whatever architecture you need than to figure out arm or x64.

Here's a video demonstrating it:

"And there's a new type of system service called a capsule, and "a small new service manager" called systemd-ssh-generator, which lets VMs and containers accept SSH connections so long as systemd can find the sshd binary – even if no networking is available" - that sounds quite interesting.
>So, there you have it. Arm wants Qualcomm to stop shipping the product it's been contesting, but to be honest, that's not usually how these things end. It's unlikely that any product will be delayed from hitting shelves. These cases tend to end with one company giving a bucket of cash to the other, and everyone moves on.

Yeah, basically this. Though it seems rather risky of Qualcomm to essentially byte the hand that feeds them. If I was ARM, I'd consider not extending any licenses given to Qualcomm this.
There is an ongoing war between the progressive and old forces. And the old forces try very hard to preserve the outdated technologies for whatever reason. Problem is that they are few, but in powerful positions, so they poison the waters for everyone, as they did already for the last decade with the whole energy-topic. At this point, it's really ridiculous how much one can stay behind and still harm everyone.
No. Which is why I am not commenting on the merits of a contract dispute.

Definitive statements should demand some relevant experience.

You have described the ARM position in the case.

According to Qualcomm, they already have a separate architecture license from ARM that allows them to produce their own cores and sell them in whatever they want. And by their reading of that license, they can purchase the core IP they use for that from a third party, and then use it under their existing license.

The paper linked in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40668458 doesn't sound like they've developed any power cells, only modeled what their behavior would be, so it's not even "a cool party trick they pulled off in a lab" but "pulled off in a computer"

On the other hand, section 3 iirc is the one where they discuss manufacturing, so there is some thought already going into what you're saying
I have made an implementation based on this article before.

https://dyn4j.org/2010/04/gjk-gilbert-johnson-keerthi/

It was years ago but I remember it was the only good ressource I could find that allowed me to understand how it works.
Years ago, my father in law ( a heavy jet mechanic) got sent to China for two months as part of a team to diagnose and fix a recurring dutch roll complaint on a particular airframe. This was for a A300-series flown by a large freight carrier.

The local mechanics couldn’t figure it out, so this team was assembled from the mechanics at headquarters to fix the plane.

They inspected the plane and found no damage. They had the pilots make multiple test flights - they could not reproduce the problem. The pilots were adamant that the plane was broken. Engineers from Airbus ended up flying out to assist. They couldn’t identify any problems.

After a few months of effort and a lot of very expensive dart throwing and parts swapping, they gave up. As far as anyone could tell, there was never anything wrong with the plane, and based on comments overheard from the pilots, they simply did not like this particular plane. It had been pulled from a boneyard and recertified, and they considered flying it beneath them.

FIL did come home with some cuban cigars and really high quality counterfeit Fluke multimeters he got from the local market, though.

It kinda bothers me that airlines are still placing orders for new Boeing airplanes.

Taking delivery of old orders is one thing, since they can't really back out of those, but placing new orders implies that some level of trust remains for this company, and I just don't see how that makes any sense at all?

I've worked for a startup similar to that, though it was series A when I joined. It was gross. I stayed there for nearly a year and a half because I did genuinely enjoy the work and my peers, but ultimately the founders ruined the experience for me with their evasiveness and lies, and their creepy later-on focus on "loyalty" when the company's prospects started to go downhill. The last straw was when I was told by another often-in-the-know employee (whom I trusted) that one of the founders had found out I was interviewing at another company, and he called someone he knew there and told them not to hire me. Obviously I don't know for a fact that's what happened, but it sounded believable based on the founder's other behavior, coupled with the seemingly-fantastic interview experience I had.

That hurt, but I realized I had to do a better job of treating interviews as a two-way street. The company was interviewing me, sure, but I also needed to interview them, and learn what I could about the kind of people the founders and my peers were. I also needed to understand up-front what would be expected of me, and how flexible they could be with my time. The next startups I worked for were much better, and I never felt exploited.
As long as they throw away the rocket on each launch, that seems really unlikely. Starship at scale will be down to the cost of fuel and ground services, with just a tiny amount amortized for the rocket itself.

Even Falcon, with only the first stage reused a dozen times or so, is cheaper than anyone else launching today. With cleaner-burning fuel, Starship will be good for hundreds of launches on both stages, with fast turnaround. (And Stoke Space is attempting that too.)
Not bigger news due to severity of issue, most likely. Safety report out today?

Well, stop importing from Sweden then. And let us deal with our own preferred solutions.
I also wonder this. Electric cars tend to be larger heavy luxury vehicles, the opposite of what we need more of. Where are the small efficient commuter vehicles?
This is so much easier to read for me personally.
It immediately tells me what the test cases are. With the author's version it's not that obvious what all the possible combinations of verbIs, countStr and sIfPlural are.
By eliminating redundancies the author introduces a new one, the count == 1 case is handled twice, once for verbIs and than again for sIfPlural.

Europe is a single market with regards to imports and exports, and that's what matters most for a business. Low wages more than compensate for regulatory annoyances. No shortage of subsidies either.

California has more burdensome regulations and higher taxes than other states and yet it's home to silicon valley.

But the reason we "needed" the DMCA is because they wouldn't have been liable under existing law, and the DMCA only covers copyright violations.
Are you preparing for some sort of cataclysmic world event that results in us living in a world where IDEs with code completion don't exist, and we're tested on whether we can code without code completion? letting those skills get rusty because other skills are being sharpened is not a bad thing. if they're getting rusty because you're not doing anything else, then that's a bad thing, but you can get yourself out of lazy mental traps, no matter where they are, if you're proactive and diligent, no matter the skill.
I live in Germany, and while I never used fax as well, I did use paper mail a lot, and I don't know how I would live without a printer and a scanner. It gets better, e.g. taxes have been completely digitized in the recent years, but still a lot of paper there.
I think the idea seems to be that this uses algae, which "eats" the carbon.

Assuming that's right, then like any other plant-based carbon absorption method, it matters what happens later, whether the carbon is released back into the atmosphere in some form during decomposition, or if it's buried, or whatever else.
Have you tried launching a product in your new EU country and then taking abroad to another EU country? You'll find out it's not exactly like doing the same thing between US states. And I'm not even talking about the language barrier.
Both seem like a reaction to the other from where I'm standing, basically a series of over-corrections/reactions.

The endgame of that seems to be that you have two sides with some completely crackpot stances that they (hopefully?) don't even really believe in themselves, but use as a sort of identity marker.

I have to confess that personally I find some of it utterly laughable and it's hard for me to engage seriously.

Like, yeah, of course abortion should be legal, but also, being "non-binary" is just a little bit weird.

Both of those camps are, well, to put it politely, in search of a hobby.
The part you are leaving out that before Qualcomm acquired Nuvia, they already owned a blanket license from ARM with no such use restrictions. Their claim is that they can use the IP they acquired under this older license.

Which side is right or wrong here depends on the exact wording of the license between ARM and Qualcomm, and since this is not publicly known, no-one outside those companies knows which side is in the right.
This is outdated. Subsidies were cut in December 2023 on a very short notice. The reason were unexpected budget-problems of missing 60(?) billion Euro, which forced the administration to cut several things very fast.

TBH, I never got the impression from the article that he's recommending to remove the memorisation of facts altogether. FWIW, I think the changes they gave as examples are about changing the way students gain and interpret those facts.
I guess it’s worse than it looks? The video was kind of a dramatic let down to be honest. I preferred the mystery.
There's probably not much advice here because you seem to already have a handle on it.

Go slow and clumsy with your process before fine tuning your approach. Embrace some manual labour at first to provide yourself with a high quality validation set of docs which you can compare the performance of your approaches. (but be wary of your approach overfitting even your validation set as you tweak at prompts).
Boeings are still flying, and Airbus has no availability. On the neos, they have more than a decade worth of orders, and the order book A350 is not much shorter.

Why would they pass legislation against one of their biggest industries when it isn't entirely clear how things will play out? EVs still face substantial hurdles on their way to replacing ICE vehicles. Germany is not going to encroach on their biggest businesses and employers until all uncertainty is gone.

It's easier for a country where this doesn't matter as much to pass such legislation.
Germany is weird. They talk a lot about green, but sabotage and protest against Tesla factory, because 'reasons'. While being perfectly ok with Coal strip mining.
