What would you have if not ad hominem?

It's one thing to use that fallacious tactic on a general SM site, but do you really think it's a net gain here?

I would almost pay for an intellectually honest debate on these subjects. It's been years.

Oh, if you have a substantive argument feel free to share, just figured you were leading with your best.
> I'm surprised, I thought this was a dead area for research and AI super resolution had fully supplanted it.

There is no open source solution of the AI variant. There are currently only DLSS (Nvidia) and XeSS (Intel), and both are proprietary. The one open source solution is AMD's FSR (MIT license), which doesn't use machine learning. So naturally Arm and Apple build on FSR for their products instead of developing an AI solution from scratch.

I'm of the opinion that nothing is ever simple. We live in a fascinatingly complex universe, and the closer you look the more information you can see packed inside everything.

Simple is just a name we attach to domains of well understood, well managed complexity.
Curiously, it turns out that elephants eating fauna actually promotes plant and tree growth. I remember reading something (ca 2007?) about the possibility that reintroducing elephants to the American Southwest could lead to reforestation of areas that are currently desert.

Which, of course, doesn’t really provide good justification for de-extinctifying the mammoth (although as I say this, I wonder if they might acually play a role in preserving the permafrost, as per this recent Science Friday story: https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/becoming-earth-how-li... )
Images are easy peasy DAM material. Unless you can handle other media types, this won’t be taken seriously, because that’s when things get hard.

Real companies aren’t struggling to manage thousands of 10KB JPEG files, they are having issues with thousands of 2GB PSD files that they want to show up on their website as images.

I work for a DAM, and have seen The Shit. “But don’t use 2GB PSD files” is NOT an acceptable answer. That is not how these teams work. They are not engineers. They are managers, designers, marketing people, etc. The entire point of a DAM is to turn garbage into gold. If you can’t accept that, you won’t succeed.

One sliver of DAM is rasterizing ALL non-raster files for thumbnail preview. Seriously, all files. Yes, people want thumbnail previews of PowerPoint files, and they better look good, too.

It gets so complex that an entire product exists for just this (amongst other things): https://www.blitline.com Yeah yeah “it’s just imagemagick as a service” but go try running that yourself, for every type of file, warts and all.

Sometimes a file won’t have an extension, or have the wrong extension entirely. Sometimes a file won’t have metadata. Sometimes the CDN you are downloading a file from will not support range requests, or return 200 but with an error in the body, instead of the file bytes. You will never have checksums given to you to validate downloaded file integrity.

It will get complicated and messy. This is ONE OF the hard problems you are solving so that others don’t have to— your value proposition.

Anyway, good luck!
Maybe read what you wrote instead? The words, not the gist.

>The gist of it is that the failure was expected by everyone with technical knowledge of the seal.

Nobody is denying that.

What you wrote was, quote: "The seal performed exactly as it was specified to."

That statement is false. It was not performing as specified at warmer temperatures either.
The main reason comes from how we were taught to write programs. It is the same problem with human languages: if you learn to speak English as a kid, you'll hardly have the need to learn German. Going from something like Python to Forth is similar to learning a foreign language, the way things are expressed in Forth are sometimes radically different. So you need to relearn to program, which is a painful and expensive process for companies. The languages that become successful are a direct translation of the first successful programming languages like Fortran and C. Everything else is too alien to succeed.
Would you say the same is true for a lawyer? Are they more worried about being fired from a law firm than being sued for malpractice and being disbarred? If not, why would engineers be different?
Hopefully an actual technology company wins this. So much money has been set on fire by the military giving the traditional primes contracts to do “digital transformation” and “AI” with very little to show for it.

- For me, I usually just look for games on youtube or google but idk cuz those games are never really that fun (I don't play video games as much anymore tho so idk)

- I really like games that have not too repetitive progression systems - so generally RPG games. Also, if the game has replay able end-game aspects I like that

- I think it's not the easiest - I just wish there was a site with more recent games besides just those articles with games that are already popular

- My most recent favorite game is probably Palworld lol - found it through youtube
I don't have direct access to my long-term savings and retirement accounts— I have to go through my financial manager who'll works in a small, local firm, and so would anyone trying to impersonate me. He would probably recognize my voice, knows where I live and what's going on in my life, to whom I'm married, etc. because we have bi-annual check in meetings. He'd definitely contact me through his existing contact info if there was anything weird going on with one of my requests, especially if it involved a different address or account than he's used to dealing with. As anyone in that compliance-and-accuracy-focused line of work should be, he's very intent on making sure all of the Ts are crossed and Is are dotted. He charges a flat percentage of my modest retirement savings annually (I'm far behind most white collar workers my age, coming from a working class early adulthood) so he has a financial interest in my investments, and does a really solid job managing them. The accounts are in a large investment-focused bank which I believe only he can access. I think it's about as safe as you could get while still keeping your money active in the economy and not having a rich person's resources.

The poster has no idea what he's talking about (typical Twitter). "Better maintained" can't be possible when it's just a week.
Yea idk. Or you can just change the perspective to: all the old stuff is actually client model + hydration like oldschool next, but and then you have new capabilities for rendering markup on server with RSC instead of hydration. Just think of it as a new additional tool in your toolbelt that you might want to use to offload big dependencies from the client bundle and run on server instead.

But from that real situation with props.dataSource, I would not expect the state from that useState to return a new value on prop update, even in a normal react app / without next. If you are not setting this client state (with the second method destructed from the hook) you could potentially ditch the useState completely and just run that data.slice(0, defaultShowItems) as is in the function body, or wrap in memo if calculation is expensive.
Funny that voice chat
doesn’t even mentioned yet that’s what made Discord popular. All the other alternatives for group voice for gaming back then
needed (still does) a dedicated server. Mumble, TeamSpeak, Ventrilo etc. Discord “bundled” the whole experience into one and that’s why it became a fortnight victory.
You're right, carbon dioxide in large enough doses is no bueno, but even then it's more likely an issue of asphyxiation than anything else, and it's really a matter of scale. Carbon dioxide exist at ~400 ppm and safe at 5,000 ppm over 8 hours, compared to 50 ppm for carbon monoxide[1]. I know which one I'd rather use to substitute some oxygen for.

I was just trying to point out that if they wanted to induce hypoxia, there's better gases to be inhaling.

That game fire - just wish combat was better. Anyways, thanks so much for responding - this is very helpful! :D
It's because you are gaslighting yourself. It's made worse by the "character" llms get finetuned on so it's harder to realize.
One feature that seems (to me) to be highly desirable, yet Discord and every other service like it (that I'm aware of) lacks: the ability for moderators to select several messages in a given channel, and shunt them into a new thread, leaving a link to said thread in their place.

As I've never seen a service provide this ability, it could be that I'm mistaken, and that this wouldn't be as useful in practice as it seems in theory. But, theoretically, this would provide a nice middle ground between forums (and the pseudo-forum-channels Discord supports on Community Servers) and open, IRC-style general discussion. With this feature, users could casually discuss things as usual, but then move to a separate thread once a tangent becomes sufficiently lengthy/heated/etc.
Palworld is a fire game ngl

Thanks so much for answering - very helpful! :D
At this point we're going to need to provide sources if we want to get further value out of this discussion because I disagree with your definition and don't believe your characterization of the history of incorporation. Profit sharing and ownership interest have always been a motivating aspect of incorporation, yes, but historically the main goal of the corporation has not been earning capital as their primary motive. The first US corporations, for example, where chartered by the government with specific goals in mind. The question of scope/goal is still part of the incorporation process. If the purpose of all corporations was profit, by definition, why ask? I that is vestigial: we used to care more about the charter and goal because profit was a concern, but not the primary concern.

I'm also intentionally not making a value judgement on what a corporation should do, rather pointing out that there exist many possibilities beyond a pure profit motive.
I'm not sure why gender identity is relevant. I agree that the punishments he would have gotten for whistleblowing justify him not staying in the US.
I'm a software developer by trade. LLM-based coding buddies (at least as of July 2024) are better than copy-paste for boilerplate, but I've never yet gotten one to complete a novel class method in a way that saved time. And asking questions about Java or JavaScript? 100% wrong answers on the kinds of questions I ask it in practice; it always "rounds off" to the answer to a more common question.
Just another example of huge companies ruining platforms that used to be nice. Maybe I can make a suggestion: the open web has always been there.

If you make apps for Google, they get to ruin your day at any point in the future. If you put up a website, you own it. You control it. It will work as long as the code still runs, and you never need to update a “manifest number” or whatever.

If you want it to be an icon, create a bookmark and drag it onto your phone’s Home Screen. In fact I do this anyways with some websites that do have apps because the website works and that’s good enough.

The same goes for Twitter vs the Fediverse. Do you know what already is a network of media servers that connect over a common protocol? The internet. Create a blog. It works forever.
I disagree, friend. You take care now.
Let's make this easy. There's 1000 people who want to go to a concert and there are 100 tickets. Of the 1000 people who want to go, every 100 of them is willing to spend $10 more, starting at $100. So the first 100 will pay $100, the second will pay $110, etc.

If the concert is priced at $120 there are 200 people completely priced out, but there are 800 people who will pay. The tickets are released, they all scramble for the tickets, some from each of the 8 cohorts willing to pay the price are able to attend.

If the concert is priced the way you described it, all 100 tickets would be bought before the price ever goes below $200.

There is simply more demand than supply. The only way to fairly distribute that, if that is what you want to do, is by the lottery-esque system we have now.

I use it to help me write text.

Don't use any tools. I run it from the command line:

./main -f ~/Desktop/prompts/multishot/llama3-few-shot-prompt-10.txt -m ~/Desktop/models/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf --temp 0 --color -c 1024 -n -1 --repeat_penalty 1.2 -tb 8 --log-disable 2>/dev/null

I prefer `main` to the new `llama-cli` because when searching history for "llama" I want to get commands that contain the "llama" models, not "mistral" ones, for example.
I'd strongly rephrase the title, this is NOT a book on physics-based deep learning.

This is a book on the deep learning approaches for physics problems DEVELOPED BY THIS RESEARCH GROUP. I think that is a very very important disclaimer to this book.

In addition, it is essentially used to strongly push their simulation framework Phi-Flow.

I would NOT call this an accurate depiction of the field.
What did Taibi say that was false?

Or do you hate him just because he reports on things you don't like?
Interesting idea, though I think that having it be $5K (or any fixed amount) no matter the size of the company favors large companies, since large companies can probably spend more to reduce the risk of getting hacked. Hell, it might even incentivize large companies to fund hackers to breach their smaller rivals, in order to wipe out their competition.

> Extremely lengthy spacewalks won't happen for numerous reasons (oxygen, battery, exhaustion, radiation, and so on) so that's not really even a desirable goal.

You're not thinking creatively enough. When life support fails and astronauts have to live in their suits for extended periods of time, what is the difference between an extended spacewalk and having to live in your suit for a while?
Nice they are doing their job and glad they exist.

But how to fix ? Most US Gov agencies are underfunded, it is either beef up security or provide services. Really a tough choice, and the outlook looks like they may lose even more funding.

It’s okay, will no longer be problem after Social Security Admin itself fails in next decade for being unsustainable
I think the inherent problem is that it's nearly impossible to have a civil conversation on social media. It's just a terrible place for it. Especially with controversial topics like politics, religion, and AI, it's impossible to discuss anything without people being jerks. Not everyone uses social media to debate; many just want to reaffirm their views and interact with like-minded people. I'm not saying that's without issues, but that's the reality. People can already mute or block others, so a dislike button would just be another tool in their toolbox.
I had a back and forth with Molly on Bluesky about this and the source of the data

Honestly this comes off as unhinged loon drivel.

How many of these do you really think are well-evidenced in reality

1) The European Union had sophisticated censorship and propaganda on twitter

2) Elon somehow shut the EU's sophisticated twitter usage

3) X/Twitter didnt (?) commit the three breaches of the DSA which they are accused of (do you accept they maybe did one or two of the three, or are all three soviet fakes?)

4) The EU are just pretending that X breached the DSA in three places, because they're mad about their sophisticated censorship being shut down.

Corrollary to 4 - The EU don't actually try and enforce the laws they write, except when the sophisticated tweeters in EU agencies write a memo to the prosecutors saying "Hey, we're mad that Elon shut down our sophisticated censorship, can you please open a case against X for three artificial breaches of the DSA we're going to invent?"

I don't accept that any of your conspiracy opinions are real or well-sourced in the real world.

Great idea, probably dependent upon latitude. In disconnected panels. Enough to provide sufficient light during a cloudy day. Would simultaneously decrease the amount of AC required during summer months, and maybe improve safety by reducing sunlight into the eyes of drivers (human or otherwise).

> Price yourself higher in the initial quote, and ask for staged payments, such that by the time your delivery schedule is 50-75% done you are 100% paid.

Related to this, another technique I've seen used:

* Figure out whatever price you want to quote

* Add 25% to that.

* In the formal quote, show the 125% price and a 20% discount for timely payment of your invoices (however you define that in the contract, maybe 30 or 90 days).

* The final bottom line price is the original price from the first bullet point.

When the client "forgets" to pay, you draw their attention to the terms of the discount and that, without the discount, they will owe 25% more.

> This is why it is critical for true open sources LLMs to continue to be available.

There's also a huge reason for research and any attempts to claim AGI. The training data is massive and far larger than any single person or even small group can look through. AND we know that the filters aren't always accurate. All benchmark results necessitate a grain of salt. I mean at times Gemini has been "better" than GPT on benchmarks but at the same time was saying that cockroaches will crawl into your penis. But there's plenty of papers showing that accuracy of answers (of any model) highly correlates to the frequency of that information and I think you can prove this to yourself pretty quickly if you ask it some coding questions and try to ask about some more obscure topics. Not that you can't get the answers, but that when you can get them, they are harder to get.
What's your math on this? I don't understand how you're getting to 37A.

A 50 amp rated outlet (backed by a 50 amp rated breaker, and wire capable of handling 50 amps) is fully NEC compliant if you run it for 40 amps continuously (80% derating) or 50 amps temporarily (which NEC defines as a load expected to continue for 3 hours or more). EV chargers fall under the 80% derating. I'm not aware of any EV charger that uses 37A. They either support 40A (80% of 50A), 32A (80% of 40A), or 48A (80% of 60A).
Not really. Apple could design a pretty clean peripheral if they wanted to and it probably would be about as thick as the nds was. The iPad keyboard is a good model of how that might look, secured on a magnetic attachment perhaps able to be folded into different orientations. Like I said, little imagination however has taken place in this sector. Apple is content to take their 30% cut off the whale gamblers. The iOS game market is certainly massive enough where that zero overhead rent seeking on the part of Apple is quite lucrative, apparently in 2022 almost $50 billion were spent on ios games alone. $15 billion to Apple thanks to their pizzo.

Which of Taibi's claims is being cited as proof of the original assertion?

Why don't we start there. Can you express, what is the actual evidence behind the claim that soviets in the EU are faking a case against twitter, because they're mad about their sophisticated censorship getting stopped?
I wonder if a programming methodology could work by: (1) writing the solution in Forth and creating a prototype that will be 100% thrown away. (2) making sure that it works. (3) re-writing the solution in a language that will be accepted by the business people. In other words, using Forth as a fast prototype system.

Worse, I feel like Discord's threading feature feels incomplete without the ability to do this. It feels like it implies it can do this when you use the feature, that you'll be shoving associated replies into a thread, but it doesn't actually work that way and essentially fails at what I'd consider a basic requirement.

It would make more sense if it worked like Slack, but even then, you can't shove existing messages into a thread for some reason. There must be some absurd technical reason such a feature is impossible, or UX designers decided it was too complicated to design for some reason. There is no "multi-select" for messages at all in Discord, even to batch delete...
