That'd be the tl;dr if you actually didn't understand what that sentence said. Volume was lower in some subcortical regions. That's some parts of about a quarter of the brain.

The implied message behind your tl;dr is also missing the mark:"Most differences remained significant after adjusting for [...] intelligence quotient."

It's a bummer to see these kinds of non-thinking reddit laughlines on HN - this is actually an extremely interesting study. For a summary, I recommend the "Added Value of this study" section. One of the most interesting findings (to me, at least) is e.g. the fact that brain alterations extend well beyond emotional regulation even to temporal & motor capacities.

There are also interesting questions to pose - e.g. why the study only found ADHD in subjects with conduct disorder. (That's not an expected result in that sample size - while ADHD & CD can co-occur, ADHD without CD is significantly more common)

I think we can do better than cheap shots.
Gall’s law: “A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. The inverse proposition also appears to be true: A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be made to work. You have to start over, beginning with a working simple system.”

Your theory of premature architecture reinforces Gall’s law.

This is from the book Systemantics: How systems work and especially how they fail (1977).

Nope. If they acknowledge you've been on 'occupied' territories, they will reject entry and prohibit it for 3-5 years.
What does 'fair' mean? Life isn't fair. To make this easier don't think of this in terms of 'fair' think in terms if what you want.

Start with the obvious; are you happy with the salary sans equity? Because, let's be honest, chances are the equity is worth 0. Assuming this fails (most startups do) will you be happy just walking away?

What about long-term? If you're both there 10 years from now I'm guessing it's because you both made it work together? Will you be equal then?

Personally I wouldn't ask for 25% in 6 months. I'd ask for 5% a year. For 10 years. (With any dilution taken into account.) And a decent salary along the way. (Same as him).

Yes he's done work, yes he's put in money, yes he's proved thd concept - all valuable and worthy of reward. But after 9 years this head start won't matter as much.
Most employees and definitely new employees are not good. Ask any military unit about the FNG. Same applies to our business, especially and when RSO's matter.
I read that licenses were some kind of security measure to prevent foreign spies from communicating using the radio back in world war 2.

What's the point of even having licenses in the modern day? If you have to go through red tape to get started, it's little wonder usage is declining.
> Morality applied to humans wasn't universal either.

Yes it was. Always. It's just that morality, being a human invention/illusion, varied from culture to culture and from era to era. Your examples ( slaves, caste system, etc ) isn't a lack of morality or non-application of morality, it's just different morality applied in different cultures. India has/had morality and the south has/had morality, just different morality than we do today in the US.

Regardless, morals can only be applied to humans. Try to apply it to animals and you get nonsense. I asked basic questions in my comment. If an elephant has 'moral weight' then killing it is wrong. So must we arrest and prosecute lions who kill elephants? Do we arrest everyone working for national geographics for profiting off of snuff films?
There are very specific about including 'metals' in every statement.
Yep, paramagnetic non metals are: Oxygen (commonly shown on youtube), Nitric Oxide, Boron, Sulfur and some graphites (very slight) due to delocalised electrons.
In my experience, rsync is a tool that's worth it despite not knowing most of what it can do. I use `-a` to get the behavior you want (which is superset of a bunch of options like preserving filesystem permissions, copying recursively, and other things I haven't bothered to memorize) `--info=progress3` to show progress/network speed updating on a single line (no idea what the other progress options do, but this one does what I want), and if I'm transferring something that's not already compressed, I use `-z --compress-choice=zstd`. After those flags, it's basically a drop-in replacement for scp (`remote:srcpath dstpath` for copying to local and `srcpath remote:dstpath` for copying to remote).
Nah. Hydrogen under enough pressure, becomes metallic. I don’t think it’s magnetic, though.

I got mine and have used it a handful of times, mainly helping my friend test his radios. it's all radio tests or talking about your radio. it is incredibly boring and I like boring technical stuff. SDR is where all the fun radio stuff is.
Old Soviet style communities get hot water from central plants, mainly used for heating but also for showers, so when winter is over, they shutdown the heating plants for the season and no hot water at all. Some places in Northern China hook into muni hot water for showers in the winter but use solar hot water in the summer, when hot showers can be a bit less satisfying (in my experience anyways).
I doubt most of Ukrainians knows Ukrainian language.
> Eire

The name of the country in English is Ireland. The name of the country in Irish is Éire. Eire without the fada is not great in either language - in Irish it means burden, and in English it was used by the UK government and BBC for many years as they didn't want to acknowledge the actual name of the country for fear it would be seen as accepting sovereignty of Ireland over Northern Ireland.

I don't normally bother to correct people on this, but in the context of the argument you're making, it's a pretty poorly placed mistake.

I believe there's a clear relationship between surface area and capability, having less surface area of 1/3rd of one's brain is no doubt a disadvantage.
Yes, the research was initially done in the US. The current research and development is now done by the group in Netherlands. There is nothing in the US that comes close to what they have now.

Why is there this wholehearted embrace of Trump and Trumpian values in the Bay Area VC circles?
You get similar treatment with an Israeli stamp in your passport if you go to many Muslim countries, not that they will actually stamp your passport anymore. Cuba and DPRK will also avoid stamping your passport for similar reasons with respect to American sanctions (no idea bout Iran).
I think the .us registry regulates the state name abbreviation subdomains, and school districts and county levels. I agree, not as good as .gov tld, but still, a layman lile me cant get a example.ca.us without some kind of proof showing actual connection with California government. (Not that California uses .ca.us, it uses .ca.gov)
The glue to hold the sintered carbide powder is cobalt or iron or whatever pot-metal crap they have on hand for cheap blocks. That would be where the magnetism is coming from. If it's highly magnetic you probably have little tungsten and a lot of binder.

Propaganda. The two major deficits stopping otherwise qualified people from being individually effective are (1) money and (2) time. If those are taken care of, any persisting problems are organizational.
“Got it through sharing needles” was the 90s version of “got herpes from a toilet seat.”
Ugh, that's disappointing. My son really likes Mark, we've been watching his videos and even got this Build Boxes things to build every month. Sean got 300K views and Mark Robers video 91M.

Mark claims he built it https://youtu.be/xoxhDk-hwuo?list=PLgeXOVaJo_gnexNopBzUKdl3Q..., he had the sketch done first and the CAD drawings, the he "hit up his buddy Sean, who is good with this type of small electronic stuff". So Mark claims Sean did just the electronics.
This is a complete non sequitur lol. FYI whisper is not a streaming model though it can, with some work, be adapted to be one.
Providing support in pytorch sounds obvious, but I have very little experience here. Why is this still a problem?
There are whole discussions on various forums and subreddit about image background, fonts of address, sending addresses of USCIS letters to immigrants applicants, to know or guess whats the content of the letter, due to anxiety and curiosity of can't wait until you actually open the letter, that if this letter is a routine acknowledgement, or interview request, or request for proof, or approval or something. Most of the time if the address section shows a part of green statue of Liberty, its a good news.
Thank you for your insight. It confirms some of my suspicions working in this area (you wouldn't happen to know anybody who makes anything more modern than the Respeaker 4-mic array?). My biggest problem is even with AEC, the voice output is triggering the VAD and so it continually thinks it's getting interrupted by a human. My next attempt will be to try to only signal true VAD if there's also sound coming from anywhere but behind, where the speaker is. It's been an interesting challenge so far though.

Why is "incoherent output" better? When an LLM hallucinates, it coherently and confidently lies to you. I think "hallucination" is the perfect word for this.
I tried asking it to compare 9.11 to 9.9 using a python sandbox and it wrote the python code and then told me the result of the code would be 9.11 > 9.9 without actually running it. lol.

I'd argue that trying to be most trustworthy to untrustworthy people is often a way to get screwed even harder. On that project, since I was the most productive people who showed regular progress meant that the project manager rode me to get more stuff done rather than fixing the broken parts of the team. I was forced to pick up dropped balls constantly.

Identifying the untrustworthy people is super easy and doesn't help. It takes a only a few weeks to see that someone isn't putting the effort in. If you're on a project with that person, you're often stuck with it with no recourse if the organization and managers aren't willing to do something.

> The well-known linguist John McWhorter argues that Shakespeare's plays should be translated into modern English since they are written in a language that we effectively no longer speak.

Shakespeare is modern enough to be understandable by any english speaker. What shakespeare requires isn't a translation but annotation for the cultural/historical/etc references and archaic words.

> "Indeed, the irony today is that the Russians, the French and other people in foreign countries possess Shakespeare to a much greater extent than we do, for the simple reason that unlike us, they get to enjoy Shakespeare in the language they speak."

I don't think you can truly enjoy shakespeare in a language other than english. After all, the value in shakespeare isn't the plot, but the language.

> However, we would never complain a translation of Beowulf 'isn’t Beowulf'

I would. But it isn't worth learning old english just to read a book. It is worth reading a bit of annotation for shakespeare.

Certainly this 'well-known linguist' isn't equating the difficulty of reading beowulf with hamlet?

This was only possible during what was an unprecedented revolutionary time in scientific discovery which allowed for the possibility 1925 - 2000 was the most revolutionary time across all fields of science, probably ever. It's mind boggling the progress made in that period.

We will likely not see a repeat until someone comes up with a quantum-classical unifying law and the resultant blowing open of all possibilities of engineering
And yet we can't get effective privacy laws enacted in this country, outside of California. Why do you think that is?

I mean, the person I'm replying to justified their stance by basically say, "well the government does it and this power shouldn't be limited to just government bureaucrats" Which indicates to me that this an issue that falls largely across party lines. That would also explain why California's practically the only state with privacy laws with teeth.
Letting the old domain lapse is silly. Presumably, it would eventually be transfered to an indingenous organization, after its use had been nearly extinguished.

There would be references that outlive a naming transition, of course. But if you read a 10 year old book and expect all the urls to work, that seems highly optimistic. It's uncool to change URLs, but stuff happens.

For XML namespaces, I think it's reasonable to keep the existing ones, but a) when there's a new version, use the new domain name exclusively; b) after some time make provisions for publishing old versions under both domain names. My experience with XML namespaces is that they look like a URL, but there isn't always useful content at that url anyway, it's really just a string that's hopefully unique. It's been a while since I used them, but I seem to recall some useful namespaces being tied to domains that were no longer in use as well.

I've used active standards where the standards body had disbanded and no original sources were available... You had to rely on documents saved and shared. It happens, it's part of life. At least if the ASF changes its name, it will continue to exist.

It's work, perhaps a lot of work, but it's tractable. IBM changed its name to IBM, AT&T changed its name to AT&T, ASF can change its name to ASF. Heck, GMAC changed its name to Ally.

Anyone working on libraries that are used by large programs can use them, like in the sort and timer cases described toward the end of the paper.

Am I weird for Googling the names of buildings, streets, conference rooms?

As for the ephemeral nature of things, it’s probably for the best that we have a finite time to do stuff and then leave the rest to others.
Upon his death, Genghis Khan was succeeded by his son. Mao was succeeded by Hua Guofeng, vice chairman of the CCP. Stalin was succeeded by Nikita Khrushchev, First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
And it would be extremely naive to think that people 100 years from now won't think our lives were dirty, difficult, and dangerous too.
They want someone to invigilate the exam. That is reasonable, particularly since it appears as though in-person exams are still available.

I'm not sure what the situation is in GB but, in Canada, the question bank (and answers) were publicly available from the licensing body when I took my exam. Under such circumstances, it would be trivial to cheat. (It was also quite handy. I made an online test generator for the club I belonged to so people could take practice exams to figure out when they were ready.)
Dang. They should have just asked you instead of doing the study.

Plenty of people have two passports for this reason.

Lots of things in immigration require you to honestly self-report and have no mechanism to validate at the point-of-entry. For instance, many countries without visa requirements will still ask about criminal records in your native country, but have no access to the data to verify if you tell them you've never even had a parking ticket.

But if you get caught later down the line, then they are going to use your lies to make life very hard for you.

The mind of a dreaming person is much closer analogy to how LLMs unpack representations of knowledge. Are dreams also bullshit because the dreaming mind doesn't care whether the imagery and ideas it presents are grounded by truth?

The term "hallucination" may be imprecise, but it is a lot closer to the truth than "bullshit".

Sorry to rant a little, but as someone who grew up with HIV in the family, this odd pressure against people who might be hesitant to sleep with someone U=U always feels uncomfortable and manipulative to me. I see it a lot around the internet.

The way I was raised, I'm the only person I trust with my sexual health. I would never trust someones word they're tested recently and have unprotected sex with them. I wouldn't trust someone saying they're on PrEP and have unprotected sex with them either. I can only trust myself. U=U is exactly the same situation.

In a zero trust mindset like that, someone telling me they're U=U only tells me they have HIV. I have HIV+ friends who struggle to take their meds at the right time every day, or forget. And I also know people who have lied about when they last took their STI screening to hookups.

I'm also sure a bunch of people would get angry if you asked a U=U person to show you their latest CD4 count or viral load proof too - so what am I to do, just trust that, unlike everyone else, U=U people are perfectly honest, and never screw up taking their meds?

The response to this is often "anyone COULD have HIV, U=U people are actually safer because they have it locked down", but again to me this is about as trustworthy as "anyone COULD have HIV, but people on PrEP have it locked down". It all relies on the trust the other person is on top of their shit.
