If one AI based system becomes an expert in writing math proofs, the cost of getting another one is simply copying files and provisioning them into different cloud instances. This can be done within minutes to hours.

If one human becomes an expert in writing math proofs, the cost of getting another one is waiting for a human within the human population that likes math as a career, the cost of waiting for that human to finish school (decades) and getting advanced specialization, with no guarantee that the human will finish school or become proficient enough to advance the frontier of knowledge. By the time you finished waiting for this, you could have trillions of AI experts working in parallel.

The bandwidth of the brain when it comes to assimilating new information is low (up to hundreds of words per minute). Machines will be able to clone a lifetime of knowledge in seconds, have thousands of conversations in parallel, even serializing parts of their "brain" and sending them over to other AIs, like the Borg. These are things that are not possible within the human condition.

And once programmable matter is attained, you could produce exponential amounts of computronium and do the equivalent of millennias of research in seconds. This is how the omega point could happen.
I mean, people working together quite often overcome the limitations of one brain, especially when those working together are driven towards that goal.
this looks cool
I really enjoy board game adaptation of Dorfromantik.
Its a rather relaxing co-op game.
There's also a "Duel" version of the game were two players (or teams) compete by playing with the same sequence of tiles. :)

Japan was the leader of cool phones until smartphones dominated. I unironically would like a cute modern flip phone today, but the market isn't exactly delivering. There are few flip phones, but they're pretty ugly and seem to be designed to meet the needs of senior citizens.
I leave my resources visible even if we aren't required to. It sometimes makes people more willing to trade with me, and I can still hide them late-game when players are getting more adversarial. Might not be the best strategy, but whatever.
Is it a production problem or that the US government, especially the House Republicans, won’t approve sharing with Ukraine? Shipments appeared to resume instantly once permission was given, and that’s higher-tech stuff than what Russia is making or even buying from China and Iran.

Well, you choose a username in a specific context, even if it's public.

For example, you may agree to have your linkedIn profile name next to your HN username... maybe. But I'm not sure that you would agree to have your LinkedIn profile name next to your Tinder username.

And you sure don't want that to happen without your agreement and even without you knowing about it (but learning about it from a colleague for example).

That's why GDPR has some right to deletion or modification. And why some days, Europe may go after data brocker

I have worked with a few people many on here would lionize, and the tendency to exaggerate their accomplishments and selective amnesia wrt crediting anyone else were common to all of them, which is how they maintain their status.

The truly insane part was that if the stock went down, they just said "too bad that's the risk you took with stock comp". They didn't true up if the stock price went down unless you were lucky enough to get part of the small pool of stock your director got to spread around for top performers.

They basically set aside your stock when you start, and you the employee absorb all the risk of downside and get punished for upside.
The word “average” implies a use of statistics, which is why I think it’s good to use, even though it’s not precise.

I'm guessing that is an air separation unit. An ASU takes ambient air from the atmosphere and separates it into its constituent components like O2, N2, argon, etc. Once the box arrived to site, it will be lifted and set so that the length is the height.

Another idiosyncrasy. "Elementary school" goes kindergarten, first grade, second grade, ..., fifth grade; then "middle school" is sixth, seventh, and eighth grades; but high school is freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior, and it's very common to just say ninth grade, tenth grade, eleventh grade, and twelfth grade interchangeably with the former terms. Finally, you can say "grade one" and "first grade," "grade two" and "second grade," etc., interchangeably as well.

What changed exactly? Humans are still competing in chess, earning livelihoods, building fan bases. The ELO world rankings don't have any machines because the International Chess Federation only allows humans to enter competitions, just like all the other IOC sanctioned sports governing bodies. I'm sure Boston Dynamics has long been able to make a robot that can run faster than Usain Bolt, but nobody cared and it didn't matter because robots aren't allowed to compete in officially sanctioned track events. Similar to why MLB teams can't use pitching machines instead of pitchers. A Phalanx can't enter a shooting competition. Wrestling federations don't actually allow man versus car like in Rick and Morty's interdimensional cable.

In some endeavors, humans doing it is the entire point.
Exactly this. Intermediate shippables are derisking. There are a few things that this strategy represents to executives:

- "You have already received benefit X for your investment in our team, and X has been well worth it. Continued investment in us will yield benefit Y."

- "Even if the project is terminated early, or later stages become blocked due to business or technical impracticalities, the company will have gained a tangible benefit already in the form of X. There is a payout, even if it is not the full thing we wanted."

- "The intermediate products validate the technology/product/business model, such that every incremental deliverable means an overall reduction in risk to the final goal."

Ousterhout's book "Philosophy of Software Design" discusses that a developer's goal is to reduce complexity. I also personally maintain this idea at work.

So if the OOP class is confusing, it has not met its goal. One could also argue that functions "do one thing" to reduce complexity, and if that one thing is to return a string, your function has succeeded.

Ousterhout also writes about "deep" functions versus "shallow" functions. "Deep" referring to a function that does a lot, without the caller doing a complex series of functions to get the end result. So subjectively, a single function with a lot of logic would be "more correct" than a class with many shallow methods.
IMO that would make certain aspects of the game quite different. Knowing which resources the other players have is an advantage (eg. when competing for the same spot) and open cards removes all the advantage (and challenge) of being good at keeping somewhat track of that.

Monopoly card becomes a lot easier to play optimally as well.

I usually advocate playing no-rob-on-2-point players. (taken from the xplorers online version)

I still don’t know what part of the article leads you to believe that there was a confrontation at the judge’s chambers.

I don’t see anything in the article that makes me think that.
About 10 years ago, I was show a piece of code (directly from their codebase) which was about 50 lines long and we had a technical conversation around it in which the interviewer asked me the following questions:

- What does this code appear to do (both technically and more importantly in the context of the business domain of the company)

- Are there are any red flags, edge cases, etc. that this code might not cover?

- If I were to rewrite it in the using modern libraries/tooling/best practices, what might I have done differently? High-level - we're not looking for you to physically write syntactically correct code here.

This is the same interview process that I now use on prospective applicants. In a single 30-60 minute dialogue it helps me answer questions such as:

- Can they size up and summarize existing unfamiliar code bases? In enterprise the ability to deal with legacy code is often more common than writing new code

- Can they re-interpret old code using a modern lens? For example if we're discussing JS/TS (requires vs imports, callback hell vs async await, XMLHttpRequest vs fetch). For python (nested lists vs dataframes, simple numpy regression vs pytorch, etc)

- Are they able to communicate and convey their thoughts in a coherent and logical manner?
I bought it shortly after release, but returned it a month later:

* The sizing options are really confusing, and my measured fit (as determined by the app over a dozen runs) felt somewhat loose. Apple Store staff could not tell me what the numbers meant and could only size me through the app.

* There's not a lot of VR content available right now — just a few short (admittedly impressive) clips.

* I feel isolated when watching media, and it's also much harder to snack and get cozy.

* Gesture controls are (intrinsically) imprecise and frequently fire incorrectly — a serious regression from physical buttons or even touch input. Also, selection via gaze does not feel natural to me. I am itching for a physical Quest-like controller for selection and input.

* A Quest-like controller is also essential for gaming. You really can't do much with gesture controls, and a gamepad does not allow you to interact directly with the virtual world. In fact, most apps that I'd be interested in (painting, sculpting, etc.) would really benefit from physical controls. Drawing with gesture controls feels pretty bad.

* On that note, no Beat Saber, which is my killer app. And even if it did exist, I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable getting sweaty in a $4000 device.

* Mac display mirroring has latency, looks a bit grainy, and does not support 120Hz. Categorically worse than my existing physical displays.

* I want to use my third party mechanical keyboard, mouse, and headphones, but only Bluetooth accessories are really supported.

* It's not very portable. I'm not sure how I'd be able to take this anywhere in my carryon. (I don't usually check luggage.)

* I get a headache after a fairly short time of using the device. It's also stuffy.

* I can't build or run anything without approval by the Apple police. This does not feel like a general purpose computer and is unlikely to be the "future" of anything until the platform opens up, or is made to open up.

Oh well. Maybe I'll try again in a few years. In the meantime, I'll keep gaming on my Quest.
> I must say the experience is pretty damn good. I can see people getting addicted to it an unhealthy way

I don't disagree, but I think interactive sex apps (with virtual partner or teledildonics) would be a much better experience that video playback (vr or not). Higher image quality, interactivity, and Im sure some sex-toy manufacturer(s) has a bluetooth/wifi API already for additional "immersion". There's a market for a much hornier Replika, if Apple would allow it. As for ethical & security implications of such an app, I'll leave as an exercise to the reader.
RF contracts are heavily services based and cost up to 7 figures for tailored intel across a number - we delivers a similarly personalized experience but for a fraction of the price. AI agents can also do a range of additional and customizable tasks e.g. bringing together relevant context about a threat actor, tracking fraud methods, compromised checks and cards, narrative analysis, geopolitical disruptions etc. They can also be automated to create new escalations and actions through integrations. It's like having RF data as well as digital analysts to do a lot of the leg work for you.
One thing I'm curious about is the DOJ took specific aim at Apple Pay and how Apple was creating a monopoly by limiting third party apps from making payments. I'm personally a bit torn, because it seems like the preventing third party apps from accessing the secure enclave is a security feature.
Yeah, but also anti-comunist propaganda from the cold war is still prominent, so when they say anti-leftist it feels like a justification. I'm sorry this is not my main language.
Has there been any store in the history of stores that didn’t have advertising though? News has half the stories being corporate PR anyway, stocks app I’m not familiar with but it’s another version of a store.

I feel these are pretty benign uses of advertising on their platform(s):

- Apple TV shows ads about shows and movies

- iOS tells you about system upgrades to help battle the constant inevitable security issues

- Mac OS tells you about the latest Mac OS if you’re not running the latest Mac OS

And I can’t think of any other ads Apple has sent my way.
If people are playing so carefully that they're constantly checking others' resources like this, it might actually be slower.
The current flip phones seem mostly motivated by functionality rather than style, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Ironically, a plain looking flip phone might attract more attention than cute looking smart phones, because fewer people are sporting flip phones.
Thanks. Not an appropriate use of the noun "vendor," so I would never have guessed that.
From a color palette decision, isn't green a bad choice? "I'm in the green, ok perfect I'll stay at home!" Why not use a perceptually uniform color gradation that has a vague connotation of danger, like the (aptly named) plasma, inferno, or magma color schemes from R's viridis color package? [1].

> Their shtick is privacy, but they still locally collect data on you and use it to serve ads in the App Store, and I believe a few other surfaces like News and Stocks.

On mobile the only one that you need to interact with is the app store. On mac you don't need any of them

At the end of the day their appeal is their UX, if the ads are too invasive like what MS did with windows then they'd just be shooting themselves in the foot
> You are hand waving about using all our energy for abstract productivity as of we would do that instead of lighting our homes.

I may be simply wrong, but I can assure you it's definitely not a hand-wave.

You may think it absurd that an economic choice would be made over a human value, but that kind of behaviour is exactly what happened in the Irish potato famine — there it was exporting food while starving to death.

I am also planning to get domestic PV as soon as possible precisely because I anticipate this dynamic.
It's also not clear that an h-m type system is what people want. For example, checking json inputs in gleam will always either be awkward or behind a "marshaller for me but not for thee" sort of inside-ball stuff, and the interface with other members of the beam ecosystem will be poor. It is possible to build a set theoretic type system without these problems, but I don't see these cases being handled by elixir's type system, either.
The issue that Spotify and others take with Apple is their 30% cut. So Spotify adds a payment processor that doesn't involve Apple, then what?
At the risk of stating the obvious and wasting people's time, it seems pretty self-evident that knowing about the existence of a species we didn't know about before is more interesting than someone creating an image of something that may or may not exist.
I agree with wanting stronger action, but incremental change isn't incompatible with revolutionary vision. We can say, "Yes, this is a good move, and I still want the other 99% of the work done." It is likely that at some point we'd have to move faster than 1% at a time, but it's easier to get up to speed when you're already moving vs standing still.
