The cnidarians are a really interesting part of the animal kingdom. They “break all three rules”, like having single-celled animals, animals that are supposedly “immortal” if nothing kills them (certain jellyfish), and now this.

The article title includes "the secret City of London." Without clarification, it's left to readers to decide what that means. It could mean its government actively maintains a cloak of secrecy, it could just mean that it's not well known, say, to Americans, or it could mean something in between. The latter pole--that it's not well known, say, to Americans--has been established in this thread. What I'm trying to do is offer evidence to support the former pole. If there's corruption within the City of London, that supplies a motive for its financial institutions or its government (as if there's a difference) to shield the activities that occur there from scrutiny.
I think people underestimate how long ancient artifacts can survive. For instance searching for pot shards and arrowheads from the local Pueblo people I was lucky enough to find an arrowhead in excellent shape still attached to a fragment of shaft. This find is evidence not only that such things can survive, but that Pueblo people had advanced technology in the fabrication of aluminum and fiberglass.
Mind tell what kind of scenario you are tring to solve?
It definitely does, at least in Europe, not sure how things are on the other side of the pond. For the user equipment there is no real advantage over LTE-M, actually is LTE-M better for our case (send a single packet a day and go to sleep). But then I don't see the picture from the operator side, maybe the radio savings actually matter for them. Some operators either don't have LTE-M at all or don't allow PSM on LTE-M because screw you that's why. On NB-IoT PSM is mandatory at least.
And yes, LoRa/Sigfox/other non-cellular LPWAN might technically be better IF you provide the base stations. Nobody wants to do that. With cellular you can just mail the device and cross your fingers the operators haven't misconfigured roaming.

> Many aphants on the other hand have no issue depicting a well formed bicycle onto a paper, and furthermore would be able to identify faulty ones.

As one, I don't draw, I construct. A set of rules make a bicycle a bicycle, so pick a part, draw it, then sequentially continue attaching parts per the rules, and at the end, it's a valid bicycle that functions. The resultant drawing is considered good, though I couldn't "see" any part of the bicycle before or while drawing.

This isn't from an image, but it is arguably a mapping.

Similarly, I've observed those who can mentally organize concepts but can't visualize pictures are often better able to render frameworks onto whiteboards than those who picture scenes.

It's made me wonder if the same parts of the mind are used for the one or the other, as if remembering everything visually uses up circuitry that could support semantic-space-time.
That's defensible.
We’ve had radiocarbon dating age New World artifacts at 20,000+ years, and one in South America up to 60,000 years, but these have all been one-off occurrences that have been mostly regarded as oddities. This study is certainly compelling on its own, but there are many more indications that humans were here well before the land bridge!

Docker images fill a different role. They shouldn't have everything installed on them as that broadens the attack footprint. They should be doing one thing, and one thing only. If it's a "run this executable that was built" - then only what is needed should be there.

Installing python and other general purpose tools gives any attacker that gets into a docker container many more tools to work with for getting out.

For docker, the trend isn't "build a general purpose machine" but rather "what can we slim this down to that only has the bare minimum in it?" This can be taken all the way to the distroless images ( https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/distroless ) and means that the security team won't be asking you to fix that CVE that's in Python that you don't use.

If, however, you do need python in an image because that image's purpose is to do some python, then you can pull a python image that has the proper release.
It's common for projects to have placeholder values for dev/local environments.

I was dumb to even try, you would just say basically "that is a combination of red green and blue dots in a new pattern, not really novel!" regardless what it was.

The wealth of things you see around you doesn't exist in nature. Stick figures doesn't exist in nature, things in nature doesn't have black outlines yet we draw that everywhere in cartoons etc. Human have proven we have imagined many entirely novel things that doesn't exist in nature. And the creatures I posted have many aspects to them that are entirely unnatural, you clearly know that there are no animals like that even without knowing about all animals, so clearly they are something novel and not just more of the same.

Anyway, whenever you put yourself in a position where you can say "nuh uh, to me that isn't like that!" to everything, you are just tricking yourself when you do so.

The single inference as the simplest way to switch from Type 1 to Type 2...

They’re separate signals.

If radiometric dating of a cave painting says 10,000 years, that’s obviously evidence. But if drift says 20,000 years, that gives room for doubt. If drift says 12,000 years +/- 2, less so.
I have implemented publish/subscribe middleware in the 90s using UDP and reliable IP multicast. It was not too hard to do and had taken me about two month. Yes I did reinvent the wheel but it had numerous positive sides:

a) It added yet another area of expertise to my portfolio.
b) I did it because it was needed to facilitate another product in the company where I worked. The alternative at the time would be paying $350,000 for middleware from Vendor-X. Not acceptable.
c) Vendor-X people noticed us, loved what we did and made us a partner to resell their middleware and we've made a ton of money on deployment, configuring and consulting services.
I input my comment in claude.ai, after refining the discussion with the other comments, Claude reached the conclusion :

« In conclusion, describing current AI systems as "intelligent" is indeed debatable. They are more accurately described as highly advanced information processing and content generation systems based on statistical models. The term "artificial intelligence" could be considered more of a marketing term or an aspirational goal rather than an accurate description of the current state of technology. »

The subterfuge, or advanced method of information processing, that is doing the magic for the debate to be possible is the transformers.

So the whole debate probably doesn’t make any sense in the first place because we can’t even define precisely intelligence in that context and there is a prism and we compare things that can’t and shouldn’t be compared in the first place

Sort of, but two things add up - lots of little services (I don't like the microservices word), but we do make small services for the workloads that make sense to run and maintain independently.

The other is burst, we run a business where customers send us a couple hundred thousand things to do just once a week or once a day. And of course we don't know exactly when the orders will come in. Much easier to let the lambdas run than have large running servers waiting. Autoscaling is possible, of course, but laggy autoscaling won't work, and aggressive autoscaling is basically lambda.
This feature doesn’t help. The problem is that the phone is still using energy during the night, draining the battery by, for example 8-10%. Over several nights, this adds up to 1 cycle.

The fact that the OS waits to top up the battery just hides how much energy it used on background activity and notifications during the night.

You’re citing artefacts on the order of centuries to millennia. This is off by many orders of magnitudes from the paper’s subject. Arrowheads would not be expected to survive millions of years, thousands of times longer than they have to date. (EDIT: Obviously wrong.)
A Man Who Saved the World by Doing Nothing
It is actually a fascinating argument that shows how little of what is being decided is based on actual data ( or at least our understanding of it ), but rather that data visualization is being used to push already pre-approved decisions with data being used merely as a 'for' argument.

I agree that if there is an indication that if most professionals don't really know what boxplot is supposed communicate, maybe it should not be used.
Yep and this is what is impressive, I still haven't been in another company where either it was a security shit show (anything goes) or a profoundly stupid IT department removes root access for devs and put firewalls and do deep packet inspection, adds some whitelisting based on DNS rules so you cannot download anything... All that while showing all the certification letter soups and be very proud of their job.
You can have it in colder climates too, just make sure to move it indoors before the frost hits. It will lose all its leaves during the winter (you can cut the leaves and freeze them for winter) but the leaves come back in spring to summer.

The UK financial services sector is involved in money laundering. That does not have much to do with its location in the City of London. The City of London Corporation is essentially just a local authority and does not have the kind of governing powers that would enable it to play a major role in money laundering. For example, it does not regulate financial transactions or pass laws (except the largely inconsequential local ‘byelaws’ that any UK local authority can pass).
Fascinating. I wonder what machine is processing the requests...

"Trains have solved the problems FSD is struggling with. They deal with junctions with automated signposts, and have a well established architecture of also avoiding train-to-train-crashes."

Your example just demonstrates my point. Waymo is not comparable because their "solution" is a dead end while FSD basically just works when being demonstrated in Europe and Asia even though it likely has like 0.1% or less of kilometers of having been driven there when comparing to US.

>it will crash

Just not true. Even ignoring that FSD can often go way longer without an intervention, remember, the "interventions" are extremely subjective and are just done when the driver becomes uncomfortable for reason or another. Many times likely the intervention just makes the car less safe in the situation, and the driver does it simply because they just had a different idea of how to fit a gap and were surprised by the car's plan. But the intervention logic is there to case for a ton of angles including legal and bug reporting / "feeling" safe instead of just purely _being_ safe.

>And NNs are inherently very noisy, so they are not a promising approach for a safety critical system

We're just replacing an NN with another one that is better. Replacing our transit system with something more mechanical akin to automatic train signaling systems (and getting rid of roads and cars!) isn't really in the books so blaming NN's is a moot point. Talking about LIDAR verifies that you don't actually have understanding of the history of FSD-like systems. LIDAR is easier for a beginner dev operation to start with but won't scale and is a fools errand given we already have the bloody reference of the previous control system working purely with vision!

FSD is the long term future and without comparison. Elon having been over optimistic about the timeline doesn't make it any less world-changing.
Until we can probe into people's minds (some advanced MRI or something in the future) and display them on a computer screen, there's no way to call bullshit on people who claim they can "see" the apple, you only have your subjective experience for that.

And I don't believe for a second they "see" in the real sense, again, because I don't see anything. Only time I really see is in my dreams. So rather, ask people "do you see the apple just like you see it in your dreams?" I bet they don't.

Or funk knows, again I repeat, I only have my sensory experience to relate to and there's no visual element in it when I close my eyes.
I really hate this argument because you can use it for quite literally anything to the point it mans nothing. It doesn't mean anything.

Criticisms of FTL don't come from being a naysayer. We now have more than a century of testing relativity and to date it has made no wrong predictions. So your bar for sayhing it's wrong is really high and the onus is on the advocate for FTL to ay how relativity is wrong and how that can be verified.

You plug -3+2i kg into mass, for example, and say you're not violating Einstein's field equations but you are. You've violated the domain of one or more of the quantities. Now that's fine if you have a theoretical basis for that but there isn't one. It's just hopium.

Likewise, physicists have analyzed the Alcubierre drive and come up with some real and genuine problems like the energy requirements [1].

Anyone tried the IndexNow feature yet? Does it benefit SEO anyhow?
IndexNow[1] is apparently an open source protocol and highly talked about industry standard in the SEO world. Unlike traditional search engine algorithm where the engine crawls the online pages one by one (`pull` process), IndexNow seeks to change this game by putting the onus on web publishers and bloggers to inform the engines of a site update (`push` process).

Presently, only Bing and Yandex have adopted this protocol and Duckduckgo is about to make its mind while Google is considering. What do you think? Is this beneficial for SEO?

While certainly some of that does happen. The language around visualization is complicated. But we know that there are people who have no ability to think in language and have no internal monologue, whereas others can do so strongly. Given how much variability there is in everything else with the brain, it would be rather strange that it isn't also true of visualization.

After all, everything we experience is our brains' interpretation of our sensory inputs. And if we can visually experience things that don't exist, whether through dreams or hallucinations (drug induced or otherwise), it stands to reason that if your mind knows how to control those same pathways you could create images in your mind.

Of course they can picture things in their mind, that's how they see.

To explain the not-joke: the things you see are not "out there" they are in your mind. Now of course the things you see through your eyes are there, but the images are imaginary, the eye and brain do all kinds of things between the retina and the mind to make the imagery you see. Your visual perception is constructive.

Metaphorically speaking, the camera works, these folks just don't know how to hit "play" on the tape. They have the neural "circuitry" to visualize in their minds (or they would be blind!) they just aren't using it.
