Same goes ie for Ferrari. For those that don't know - you can buy 'cheap' V8 ie Californias, 458, 488, F8 etc, pretty much just like anything - you pay and get into queue, and once its your time, you get what you've selected with sales rep.

Not so much the better V12 / hypercars which they do in carefully limited amounts. You have to be previous owner of series of lesser ones. You have to be their customer for quite some time, with flawless trail as a stellar customer. You have to have very good relationship with their company (so like Justin Bieber got his car painted on some color that they didn't approve and Ferrari banned him for life). Unique extremely limited series are all this but 10x or 100x, since all know this is darn good investment right out of gate, if you don't screw up maintenance (and at those price levels nobody sane does that). Those are basically not driven, each km would be ridiculously costly in total costs and depreciation.

You can skip most of this if you buy second hand, for adequate inflated prices. This won't work for Bieber style of situation of course.

I detest Netflix and other streamers recent fashion for using letterbox format - completely wasting a significant chunk of my precious screen real estate.
Why do idiot directors think this is a good thing? These will never be shown in cinemas and even there the best format is Imax which has even more vertical space than 16:9 TVs
Kind of. It can be read as a single binary, some supported systems will do that. In others, the executable is first parsed as a shell script. There's definitely more to it than a single binary.

Yeah, they moved to a native integration with Apple/Google/Samsung Wallets, and Clipper cards as a backup (but they really try to discourage them, at least for tourists).

The cool thing is that their thing doesn't work with all Android phones for an unknown reason (various people from the transit agency said "oh Android? Yeah it doesn't always work with Android"), which you have no way of knowing before topping up money and trying to use your phone.

If anyone is curious, it was a Xiaomi Redmi phone, a midrange one that has no issues paying over NFC. A OnePlus next to it with the same Android version worked just fine.

Indeed. May 2022 TechCruch [0] about sexism at workplace:

"Privacy watchdogs in Europe are considering a complaint against Apple made by a former employee, Ashley Gjøvik, who alleges the company fired her after she raised a number of concerns, internally and publicly, including over the safety of the workplace." "At the time, Gjøvik had been placed on administrative leave by Apple after raising concerns about sexism in the workplace, and a hostile and unsafe working environment which it had said it was investigating."

That does not mean that b-trees are unequivocally better than binary search trees. There are some applications, like concurrency or persistence, where comparison count is not as important.

For instance, fewer values per node means less information to copy when copying the node. Locking is more granular with fewer values per node because fewer values are locked at a time.

The binary structure also makes it possible to support randomized balancing and self-adjusting strategies like splay trees.

I am disappointed to still see frequent mention of red-black trees – I see no reason for red-black trees to ever be the best choice in practice, or in theory, or in school. LBST's (logarithmic binary search trees) [1] are generally simpler, more intuitive, and more efficient [2] than red-black trees. They also support positional access inherently, so the balancing information is useful (subtree size).

Interesting, very good! Please make this a plugin for amazon, temu, alibaba etc.
I agree with you about the disappointment. However I do also think EVs creep up on people and the stats bear this out - 3x more pedestrian collisions in urban areas EVs vs ICE.

The moment of maximum surprise for me is when a silent and stationary vehicle suddenly moves. I think EVs should have to clear their throats before moving forward.
I mean: That part was of course satire. It's not like her head literally detached and flew around the room by itself: She was a real, human little kid (and a pretty awesome one at that), not something from some horror film full of practical effects and CGI, with disembodied heads flying around and screaming tirelessly like their very essence is being destroyed.

But it sure did feel like that was happening every now and then, despite our very best efforts and resources. And sometimes, something like a trip to the store ("HEY, DO WE NEED MORE EGGS AND MILK FOR TOMORROW?" "YOU KNOW WHAT? I THINK WE DO NEED MORE EGGS AND MILK FOR TOMORROW!" "OK! LET'S TAKE THE KID AND GO TO THE STORE!") was the the only thing that allowed for a return of sanity for anyone involved.

It was not the first option. We always employed all positive options first and had good support for finding new methods; we really did do pretty-OK at that time as non-robotic human parents, I think.

Going for a short drive was the last option before "Let her scream. It's hard work to make that much noise and she'll tire out eventually, and fall asleep [0]" would come into play after everything else has already failed.

[0]: We once got this advice from her doctor as a last-resort option. And maybe that was good advice or maybe that was terrible advice, but it was absolutely untenable advice for us when we were living in a stick-framed apartment building: Letting a kid scream like that for a prolonged period with a multiplicity of neighbors on the other sides of the walls is an easy road towards getting the police, CPS, and/or building management involved through no particular fault or misdeed of our own. And as a practical matter, when third parties become involved like that, now there are at least two problems (at least one of which is now an ongoing major problem) instead of just one relatively minor problem of a clearly-tired little human who chooses to scream instead of sleep.

I'm very glad that you never had the opportunity to experience this kind of thing. It's awful, and if it were easy to resolve I wouldn't have any of this to write about.

Thinking of it, QR codes make sense for when you buy a single-use ticket at the station with the intention to use it immediately.

We actually have this for suburban trains, it's just a receipt with a 1D barcode on it. You use the barcode to open the turnstile (on some stations where they are installed), but otherwise the tickets are checked by controllers that occasionally go through trains.

For getting around a city though, I don't see much of a good use case. In my city, if you're here for at least several days, you're expected to buy the refillable card. If you're only here briefly and only need to use the metro a couple times, it's 1.5x more expensive but you'd buy tokens or tap with your bank card.
Thanks for your tip/reply. My sense of taste/smell is much better now and seems to be on a good trajectory as well, I won't seek more treatment at the moment.

That is 100% true. Convention is an agreement we already had. It's much less effort, and more manageable to learn that, with the potential downsides as well, compared to figuring out the particulars of a custom configuration.
I happened to buy a blackberry instead of the original iPhone. I can confirm that this is cherry picking.

I've had a brain MRI to rule out other causes (tumors etc), but it was clean. I don't think they looked specifically for tiny damages to areas (if that's possible), but I'm not sure to be honest as I only got answer that there were no signs of disease.
If the executives where smart they would have left after getting the deferred prosecution agreement. That way they could claim that it wasn't in their hands anymore and therefore they are not responsible.

Deferred prosecution should be eliminated and if a company is too big to fail then it should be nationalized and the execs should face prosecution.
If he paid 2.5 billion then most probably yes.
> I want the actual humans responsible charged

And there are a lot of them to charge. Start with the last two CEOs, add in the CEOs/COOs for Boeing Commercial aircraft, the test pilots, the program director(s) for the 737 Max, the engineers who designed MCAS and didn't add in any redundancy, and then move all the way down to the Spirit and Boeing employees cutting deadly corners on the production line.
Isn't a bigger factor here, in addition to their careless attitude, the fact that they've started manufacturing semiconductors on land specifically only zoned for light industrial use, when, at least per her article, fabricating semiconductors is work that is required to be zoned heavy industrial?

The issue being, of course, the proximity of residential to a "light industrial" vs. "heavy industrial" plot sure changes things for the people moving into those residences...

What is the formal logical system?

Eg, KGs (RDF, PGs, ...) are logical, but in automated construction, are not semantic in the sense of the ground domain of NLP, and in manual construction, tiny ontology. Conversely, fancy powerful logics like modal ones are even less semantic in NLP domains. Code is more expressive, but brings its own issues.

I wish there was a ruling that publicly traded companies' fiduciary responsibility includes public health.
It's not that kind of hypothesis. It's more like a mathematical proof, with some underlying assumptions that aren't actually true in reality.

Figuring out which ones, and to what extent, is an unorthodox but effective path to wealth.
because in this case, there's only one company making that special computer, and it's either suck up to their sales reps or buy an 'inferior' product.

Probably all three + economies of scale. Display panels are something like $15/unit, and initial fees for a panel with non-standard resolution can be in low millions. I think you'll also be asked to purchase all productions of that panel unless there are other market demands for it. Most tablets don't even sell like Surfaces on rainy days, and it's hard to justify those fees and conditions.

Maybe another way of looking at it is - the paper is attempting to explain what LLMs are actually doing to people who have already anthropomorphised them.

Sometimes, to lead people out of a wrong belief or worldview, you have to meet them where they currently are first.
$100k is about right in the USA as well for a single family of chemicals.

Like in this case, if they only wanted to test for fluorinated compounds. Testing for "Acetone, Acetonitrile, Acetaldehyde, Benzene, 1,2-Dichloroethane, Ethanol, Ethylbenzene, Hexane, Isopropanol, Isopropyl toluene, Methylene Chloride, Toluene, and Xylene." might be somewhere in the middle of $100k to $1M, depending on desired level of differentiation between similar chemicals.
I'm somewhat of the same mind, but I'm fairly sure a study of Operating Systems: Three Easy Steps would get me over the hump. There's no actual reason to suspect this thing would like, sidestep normal process management or memory virtualization or something and run amok... I think.
Right and if the IA was following that logic it should have never bothered with any DRM in the first place.

There is, but it's optional :))))
Intentions are not reducible to computational implementation because intentions are not algorithms that can be implemented with digital circuits. What can be implemented with computers and digital circuits are deterministic signal processors which always produce consistent outputs for indistinguishable inputs.

You seem to be saying that because we have no clear cut way of determining whether people have intentions then that means, by physical reductionism, algorithms could also have intentions. The limiting case of this kind of semantic hair splitting is that I can say this about anything. There is no way to determine if something is dead or alive, there is no definition that works in all cases and no test to determine whether something is truly dead or alive so it must be the case that algorithms might or might not be alive but because we can't tell then me might as well assume there will be a way to make algorithms that are alive.

It's possible to reach any nonsensical conclusion using your logic because I can always ask for a more stringent definition and a way to test whether some object or attribute satisfies all the requirements.

I don't know anything about theories of consciousness but that's another example of something which does not have an algorithmic implementation unless one uses circular logic and assumes that the brain is a computer and consciousness is just software.
In Europe at least, where most (?) transmissions are still manual, you will still get way more noise from an ICE vehicle than an electric vehicle at low speed. This is my experience everywhere here in cities, on small roads, etc. This is largely caused by the fact that people tend to not drive in an optimal manner (i.e. using a low gear instead of a higher one).
It's just late-stage capitalism at work.
This is a huge self-own. Would this ever happen to a Chinese manufacturer?
That happens all the time. You find a good lawyer, the lawyer goes to the prosecutor and says "this is going to end with a fine of about x, why don't we save ourselves work and my client just pays x straight away?" If the assessment is sound and the prosecutor would rather do something else...
If 10k is all you have. Something durable like hand-bag allows you to visibly signal for weeks if not months... Same can't be said about donation... Can you even check such thing? So would anyone in peer group even believe?
No, the proof is the proof that you generate with formal methods.

Is exhaustive testing even possible in theory?
If you'd read the aticle you might have noticed that generating answers with the LLM is very much part of the fact-checking process.

Meta has suspended my Facebook account
I tried using Facebook this morning to find out that my account had been suspended due to an Instagram account not following their rules.

The account "emuoz1w9nruyysu" has nothing to do with me. I have never created that account and don't have access to it.

However, Facebook has said I can only regain access to my account by appealing from that IG account. I don't know how it got associated with me, as I have never received a request to administrate or moderate that account, and I can't log into it to appeal.

I have 180 days, but I feel stuck between a rock and a hard place, and the issue feels stupid. I just wanted to vent and hope that maybe someone here might know what happened and how I could rectify this issue.
Let out the engineers and workers. The management always justifies its salaries with their responsibility, then at least when it comes to that, they've got to stand for it. Also it's important that the penalty is no cash fine in any way. They usually got an insurance for the case.

Yes, this might be driven from a punishment thought of justice but it is important that there is an educational correction in the business to no longer calculate human life in terms of money which one may balance against.
Like The Gnu Song from At the Drop of a Hat?

Pretty much writes itself really.
