Some people don't need all that much battery life.

FBI succesfully breaks into phone of Attempted Assassination Suspect
When we presented our pediatrician with our third child who could urinate in a sink on verbal command at just six months old, she remarked, "We should write an article for a medical journal!" We explained that such an article would never get published because it's not new information; most of Europe begins potty-training at around six months. Delaying this valuable skill until the age of 3-4 years is an enormous waste of resources - but still the whole country was insisting on doing it, don’t know about now.

Fun fact: IBM 16xx computers from the early sixties did output "Ж" in place of an invalid character.

One can conclude that while technology comes and goes at an ever-increasing rate, Жопа is here to stay.

PS: "Жопа" in russian is "bums" or "ass" but means "shit happens".

Yeah, but that opens many more questions than it answers: this $620 000 figure cannot come out of labor intensity alone, as it represents the cost of thousands of work hours (literally a dozen of doctor full time for a month, or at least 50 well paid specialized technicians working for an entire month on each patient treatment) yet the process described in the text doesn't seem to match this level of labor.

My current process for "modal asking any consent when I just jumped in the page and don’t have any certainty there is something there I am looking for" is

- does reader view toggle works? if yes, consult, end here

- am I really looking for some information that might be there? if "no I just clicked a link from somewhere on the internet", then end here

- still here? Hey, what about looking at the DOM, if the information looked for is not a simple small segment of text, there are good chances a few CSS/HTML tweak will reveal this. Got it? end here, though you might consider to automate this process with Greasemonkey if this domain often fall in your research.

- no luck so far? It’s ok, you know Internet is vast, there are plenty of other page to visit. WTF are you doing here anyway, don’t you have a job, hobbies and people to cherish? And what about a small walk, you look like you need some fresh air, you know?

Hi there, we have published a demonstration of fingerprint watermarking on audio and images that anyone could just try. In our next phase we will release our first consumer product that will provide value. We have conducted thorough testing on our fingerprint encoding and decoding. We will for sure aim to explain this better when we give users the ability to encode unique signatures.

If there are any other particular claim you have not found enough information about then I am happy to elaborate.

Could you by any chance link any of those court cases?

Making importers legally liable for damages that be linked to to bad quality & other safety concerns is more effective than a central body trying to tell people what is "safe" or "good quality".

This strategy is still regulation but it is not based on interfering it is based on disincentives.

Limitation of imports is usually just a scheme to facilitate cartels & protectionism.

>Any free market principles will never work if you have less than a few tens or even hundreds of companies competing, for a market as huge as pharma.

It is often "regulation" that makes it very difficult for new entrants to compete.

It is said that it costs about $3B for a corporation to bring a new drug into the market today. Fees people can afford that. And most of that money is just to satisfy obscure regulatory requirements. Not many people can cough up $3B per drug.

Not really, no.

First:

Human desire literally knows no bounds, yesterday's luxury is today's basic necessity.

If the prices for many products go towards zero, they'll become uninteresting and new products will be invented for which, for whatever reason, the price can't be zero.

Second:

The aggregated desire of billions of people is a formidable force. Whoever finds a way to satisfy it will have found a way to become incredibly wealthy.

I'm not saying we should be fine with it, just trying to understand what "doesn't even pay that well anymore" mean practically. E.g. if other careers have gotten better compensated while programming has gotten worse, it would have meant they'd be incentivized to change careers.

What I see locally is that cost of living has gone up but no other jobs (aside maybe real estate?) have improved compensation relatively to programming in that time.
I don’t understand the sentiment. People should analyze what they actually use and what the need is. Sure, I bought a 64gb ram macbook because I like toys and don’t want to think about it, but for 80% of my workload 8gb is fine, and for my partner it’s fine for 100%.

question to experts of HN in ML/AI. Could you please share the beginner resources you think would worth for a person who wants to switch their domain from CRUD/backend APIs to ML/AI. There seems to be many branches of this domain, not sure where to start.

Is my understanding correct?

* AI engineer -> engineer who builds applications on top of AI solutions (prompt engineering, OpenAI, Claude APIs,....)
* ML ops -> people who help with deploying, serving models

> In 2018, Tumblr banned porn on its platform after Apple deleted its app from the App Store, which ultimately led to Tumblr’s demise.

Corrected version: In 2018, Tumblr brought forward its already planned porn ban when Apple deleted its app from the App Store after reports of CSAM on the platform. Whilst this did do a lot of damage to Tumblr at the time, it still exists, is still available on the App Store, and is still a pretty active (albeit niche) community.
It is not just advice.

Default configs of most distros are set up for server-style work, even on workstation distros. So they’ll have CPU and IO schedulers optimized for throughput instead of latency, meaning a laggy desktop under load. The whole virtual memory system still runs things like it is on spinning rust (multiple page files in cache, low swappiness, etc).

The only distro without this problem is Asahi. It’s bespoke for MacBooks, so it’s been optimized all the way down to the internal speakers(!).
LD_PRELOAD is bit yucky though in my opinion. I suppose ptrace is the only other option though :/

The quick sanity test is to ask why big name jewelers can sell the same style ring at all sizes for the same price, despite perhaps 25% difference in mass. The majority of the retail sales price is not the precious metal value.

Note this is the lowest spec Surface Pro 4, it had a low power Intel Core m3-6Y30 so that it could run without any active cooling, making it a 'true' tablet. Most of the 'proper' Surface Pro 4s had an i5 or i7 processor with active cooling (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_Pro_4 ) and were roughly comparable in performance to other PC ultrabooks at the time. I've been using the Surface Pro line for about 10 years to do everything I need to do, they are pretty solid.

Very good resource on building from the basics in a concise manner.
No it unfortunately does not. You require root to remount the read-only system partition, to insert the kernel modules, and to turn SELinux off. We used a "userdebug" build to get root, but I imagine most of this could also be done with a phone rooted through other means (I haven't tried it, however).

Thanks a lot for your comment. I appreciate it. I believe it involves two points:

1. Choosing C and R:

Normally C and R are chosen from the higher norm rows and columns to be able to reconstruct W or an approximation of it from C@U@R. However you stated it correctly here "but C and R are chosen with respect to the inverse of their contribution towards W, with lower-norm rows and columns more likely to be chosen. In some sense, the CUR of this fine-tuning is as far as possible from the full weight matrix W while still being drawn from it."
So the whole idea is to mitigate catastrophic forgetting by constraining changes to less critical parts of the original weights giving the original matrix some control over the fine-tuned matrices via C and R which are drawn from W not initiated randomly.

2. You are right about the results in MRPC dataset. This is due to a couple of reasons:
a. The learning rate I chose was relatively slow 2.5e-4
b. not enough text preprocessing was done to increase accuracy as the core idea was to measure catastrophic forgetting more than accuracy.

I actually recently tried different learning rates, epochs, ranks, alpha and different tasks (planning to conduct them in the preprint later) and got different numbers but with the same conclusion; CURLoRA-n was always better both in mitigating catastrophic forgetting with much less trainable parameters while having a good and sometimes better accuracy from LoRA-n.

Here is the paper repo: https://github.com/mnoorfawi/curlora
It has the implementation code ready for both LoRA and CURLoRA.

if you would like, feel free to give it a try on a specific task of yours with different parameters.

Thanks,
More snakeoil. Great.

Most GPs I have talked to know next to nothing about psychiatric medications. The incompetence runs deep, not limited to psychiatric medications. Just for an example: they know absolutely nothing about seizures caused by withdrawal symptoms of benzodiazpines. In fact, I had a psychiatrist who I had an appointment to after one month, and he knew I was on 2 x 2 mg of alprazolam, well, imagine what would have happened if I could not have gotten my hands on benzodiazpines: seizures. I had them before. No one really cared, my psychiatrist didn't, my GP didn't.

When I was growing up in the 90s, Triptics were a staple of every family summer vacation. My parents used CAA (Canadian version of the AAA) and before every trip they would also get large format maps with the entire route methodically highlighted, even with warnings for construction or slow points.

The fun though was still following the directions. Nowadays the GPS tells you exactly which exits to take or which lanes to stay in. It wasn't a family vacation without crazy stress as a bunch of offramps or potential exits approached, or the eventual looping back for a missed exit. GPS makes it all easier. But it also feels like going on autopilot without a hint of adventure in the way that roadtrips used to feel.
By default, it seems git-send-email adds the in-body From: with the committer. (I don't know if git am picks this up, but I suppose it does.) If I add --from _after_ $oldsha..$newsha, it seems that's the git-format-patch --from, which _also_ adds something based on the headers sent by git-http-backend, so I get two From: in the body, where the first is:

From: anonymous <anonymous@http.2001:<…my IP address here…>>

I guess what I really want is Reply-To: being set based on the commit message, but I don't know if git can do that easily.

I still cannot find any article about this incident explicitly mentioning not even a specific model, but just whether it was Android or iOS at all.

google is the owner of the DRM verification system, they add exception for google robots, website only appears on google, kills other search engines in the process
That's incomplete. As the article points out:

> Even the United States government isn’t dumb enough to believe the polygraph works. The machine’s real purpose is symbolic, as an icon of the power of the state. Law enforcement agencies don’t use the machine to detect lies. They use it to coerce confessions. [...] It’s a fact, part of a story power tells itself to justify its power. Maybe you can beat the machine— they don’t detect lies, so it’s not that hard—but you can’t beat an entire country that believes in it.

Even if you know its nonsense, there's still something coercive of any system where it can be used as a pretext to punish you, or where you are punished for not pretending to believe in it.
