Unicode is definitely a prescriptive standard. Code point 65 is a capital A because Unicode says so -- any such standard is necessarily prescriptive.

> Which means that some ephemeral undocumented proprietary encoding might be used instead

I'm not arguing against the need of some standard for representing those, I'm just objecting to the technical decision of incorporating them as code points, because they don't serve the same semantical purpose.

Instead you could have introduced -- for example -- a simple vector graphics format.
Hope you like compiling it yourself. The toxicity of the community means it was refused inclusion by at least one distro (Void Linux).
Second Thought, Don't Eat That Frog
Here they do have such domains: .gc.ca for the Government of Canada, and .gouv.qc.ca for the Québec government. But annoyingly they both seem to be moving towards canada.ca and quebec.ca, respectively. There's even a whole .quebec TLD now that they could use, but no.
I didn't mean 'requires no insulin at all,' I know T1D requires some insulin to regulate blood sugar and to perform other functions in the body.

What I meant was that, for example in the OP article, a 60g bolus of carbs brings blood sugar from the bottom of healthy range all the way to the top of the healthy range in one go.

It just seems like an unnecessarily large and (for most) difficult to control jump in blood sugar. A lower-carb diet, say under 50g total carbs per day, should reduce blood sugar swings and increase their controllability, letting patients be in the healthy range of blood sugar for a higher percentage of the day.
The type of user who has email conversations about .COM files is the same type of user who will realize that the link was automatically created by someone's email client and have a laugh about it.

I don't know if you can say the same about zip files, an average user they might encounter someone mentioning a zip filename a handful of times in a year and they might click on the link expecting to get that zip file.
I feel like this fact from information theory also requires its own proof, and one strategy for that is likely to be similar to Turing's!
The issue had been reported at least twice and was clearly documented. GitHub knew about this and had known for years. Their replies to the two notifications were even very similar.

GitHub clearly knew. Would you prefer that a vendor lie?
I agree, it's poor vernacular.

What they mean, of course, is an extremely well funded- government sponsored, tech agency acting as an aggressive security service.

IE; NSA, GCHQ.

As opposed to a tech agency that is acting inwards to the country.

IE; CIA, MI5 (Security Service).

And opposed to a self-funded hacktivist group.

I would greatly prefer better nomenclature though. Nation-State is almost a non-term, since every nation is a state, effectively. - Normally I have seen "state-sponsored", which denotes the correct meaning.

In computer science we tend to have quite clear names for things (blue team, red team). Maybe someone could come up with something better?
Maybe. "Overall, this only shows us how far on average we go from the original distribution, but the process can only ’terminate’ if the estimated variance at a certain generation becomes small enough, i.e. we effectively turn into a delta function." Iiuc, variance is modeled as a random walk that will sooner or later reach on zero. I'm not sure I buy that because the variance "walks" orders of magnitudes slower than the mean and is much more robust for large sample sizes.
It doesn't matter if they knew. If they don't deem it a security vulnerability --- and they have put their money where their mouth is, by documenting it as part of the platform behavior --- it's not eligible for a payout. It can be a bug, but if it's not the kind of bug the bounty program is designed to address, it's not getting paid out. The incentives you create by paying for every random non-vulnerability are really bad.

The subtext of this thread is that companies should reward any research that turns up surprising or user-hostile behavior in products. It's good to want things. But that is not the point of a security bug bounty.
I got sick a few years ago and they were great for 6 months but the constant checking in and anxiety around adds up. Then they went out of business 6 months later.

I would rather have the money upfront. And it shouldn't bring you sadness, it's a reality that sadly many of us had to face.
All of them presumably. The first one claims that the customer in 2022 has had used the battery for a year already, meaning he has received it in 2021.

He specifically claims that it is the battery which is promoted on that site, which will get a Kickstarter in a few months. Obviously that can not be a genuine review.

Fake endorsements are a very common tactic on scam sites, where some snake oil is sold and you have "real people" giving extremely nice quotes about how great the product is.
My kids use Alexa for listening to (spotify) music more than anything else. If Alexa could convince my kids that Amazon music is better than Spotify, then I'd pay for amazon music instead of spotify. So far, there hasn't been any serious attempt at getting us to embrace amazon music.

If I was amazon, it would look like this. "Oh hey, you want to play Taylor Swift? Well, it looks like your brother is playing spotify on a different Alexa device. Would you like to play Taylor Swift using Amazon Music?" No ads. No bullshit. For 1 month.

After that month, then it would say "It looks like your Brother is playing music on a different Alexa device. Sign up for Amazon music to play up to 5 different streams on alexa and elsewhere." (something that is possible, but more challenging to do with spotify on alexa devices).

Well, the Eastern Front was fought with a savagery unmatched by the other theaters. It was a war of extermination after all.

There's no denying the Germans were tactically superior (and the Soviets pretty bad, especially initially, as evidenced by their disastrous performance during the Winter War), just as the Germans were logistically and operationally inferior, especially as the war progressed.
Start making friends. You don't land big deals by being great, you land them by being good enough and being friends with the stakeholders. A lot of the time you don't even have to be good at all - just be friends.

In this way, the best thing for friend-making is to attend an Ivy League and be not autistic.

That makes sense. Funnily enough I had kind of an inverse problem building the https://3dgs.zip/ landing page, or linking to the project from elsewhere - I’d point a link to the compression survey with the link text “survey.3dgs.zip”.

And had to have people point out to me that they don’t want to click on that, because they don’t want to download a big file.
> 1. this is nothing that should surprise anyone who has an intuition on control theory and the evolution of unconstrained markov chains

You don't even need to know what a markov chain is. It is intuitively obvious to anyone with two brain cells to rub together that AI can't improve by eating its own vomit.

Well yes. I don't think it's really defensible to render a code point using a glyph with a different semantic meaning. But "inconsistent" emoji rendering will always be a thing.

> The model is more akin to a python script than a compiled C binary.

No, I completely disagree. Python is near pseudo-text source. Source exists for the specific purpose of being easily and completely understood, by humans, because it's for and from humans. You can turn a python calculator into a web server, because it can be split and separated at any point, because it can be completely understood at any point, and it's deterministic at every point.

A model cannot be understood by a human. It isn't meant to be. It's meant to be used, very close to as is. You can't fundamentally change the model, or dissect it, you can only nudge it in a direction, with the force of that nudge being proportional to the money you can burn, along with hope that it turns out how you want.

That's why I say it's closer to a binary: more of a black box you can use. You can't easily make a binary do something fundamentally different without changing the source. You can't easily see into that black box, or even know what it will do without trying. You can only nudge it to act a little differently, or use it as part of a workflow. (decompilation tools aside ;))
The model's context is 128k tokens, so you'd have to split the data and analyze in chunks.
> in 2023, Amex cardholders (U.S. consumers only) spent, on average, $13,945 per year, or almost 4 times more than Discover cardholders

Honestly, not surprised. AXP/AMEX marketing team and superior customer service in the early days of the programs made it the top card to own amongst wealthy individuals.

The once coveted "black card" or Centurion product was invite only to existing card holders with the platinum card and met a certain annual spend criteria (some 6 figure amount). Card holders of this product paid some couple thousand dollar "initiation fee" and of course the annual fee. AXP got paid and then double dipped on the merchant side with even higher fees (the "no limit" cards charge a higher transaction fee).

Its exclusivity and hype has died down, especially when it started to issue centurion for businesses. Very easy to hit the required spend limit and use it as a weird flex at your next dinner party or restaurant outing with friends/family.

Honestly, if it wasn't for the centurion product. AXP would just be another credit card company and credit card network out in the wild (maybe it would have just been like "Diner's Club")

On my iPhone, long pressing the spacebar means that moving my finger around moves the cursor around as if I was operating a touchpad.

On my Android phone (running gboard), long pressing the spacebar means that moving my finger left and right scrolls the cursor left and right, but it doesn't operate like a touchpad (the cursor doesn't move smoothly, nor does it move up or down).

Is that not the same for you?

> Usually when people selling shovels are giving shovels away for free they're banking on a payoff. Usually a regulatory capture payoff. Or a hedge of some kind?

The payoff is different... everyone's banking on someone making a breakthrough regarding AGI/ASI and then being the first one to actually make a mass market product out of it that achieves dominance.

But for that to happen, you need a lot of extremely smart people working for you, and you get these people working for you by giving them something to play around with.
The problem with this line of argument is that the fundamental workings of git are also surprising to people, such that they routinely attempt to address mistaken hazmat commits by simple reverts. If at bottom this whole story is just that git is treacherous, well, yeah, but not news.

There's a deeper problem here, which is that making the UX on hosting sites less surprising doesn't fix the underlying problem. There is a best-practices response to commiting hazmat to a repository: revoke the hazmat, so that its disclosure no long matters. You have to do this anyways. If you can't, you should be in contact with Github directly to remove it.
Except that seems like a maintenance nightmare day to day. There's bugs in the linux version but not the windows version, not to mention having to write two sets of software. Imagine having to get your app's prod to work on both windows AND linux.
It generates the code to run for the answer. Surely that means it actually knows to build the appropriate algorithm - it just struggles to perform the actual calculation.

We're talking about reddit dot com here? Seriously? I find it difficult to find any comments worth reading at all on that website. 99% of the stuff that isn't buried is just the same recycled jokes again and again and again.
If I understand the issue correctly if you make the original repo public any private forks from other users are also effectively public. Right?
That would be surprisingly easy with 1st year calculus as long as you were willing to accept a small degree of inaccuracy.
And this makes for a pretty lonely and downright harmful society, when viewed through that lens.

And I'm not going to feel stupid or naive for feeling like children are tricked into believing the opposite is true.

I want to also say, this state that everyone is acting in their self interest is not something we should promote, or be proud of, or assume is the natural state of things. It is a state that we are being forced into, and we are being convinced to accept.

People as individuals are actually very good. And if we were to get over a few little logical fallacies, we could extend that goodness onto our whole society. But there are many reasons why that is considered harmful by some in power, and then many more who are propagandized into agreeing with them.

If you get wrapped around the axle as to whether this is scrum or not, or whether you're a scrum master or not, you won't be very successful.

You're being asked to understand and model requirements, and then break that down into features that can be worked on by a team following some sort of iterative development process.

While this is not coding, it is certainly engineering.

To be successful at that, you'll need to lean on the team for help on this, so you should talk to your team and ask them how they feel about it and any suggestions about how to get it done.

You're also being asked to do all the legwork in managing tickets, etc. This is something you should ask your team about. A competent team with decent tooling should be able to carry this sort of thing together.

Part of the job is setting expectations with management as to when it is appropriate to interact and when it is profitable to try to steer things. I've found once a quarter is the best expectation to set. This allows a quarterly plan to be created that has buy in from mgmt, and then that can be broken down into 2 or 3 week sprints. A quarter is 91 days, or exactly 13 weeks.

If mgmt is expecting to constantly interact, then they need to learn to not drive by looking at the hood of their car, and you might not want to be in that car.

Honestly you just need to have good marketing and a passable product. The "secret" none talks much about all top tier APT groups run labs and test their exploit families agains all top tier Endpoint solutions.

I don't code and design at the same time because I've noticed from experience that it's slower and gives worse results than designing first and then coding.

The wasted effort is one factor to it but another factor may be that I'm able to just focus on design and ux more and not think about implementation.

I may have been able to return it to Newegg, but return shipping is hit or miss as to whether you have to pay for it and I was honestly so frustrated with the whole fiasco that I just wanted to go directly to the source for a replacement that I knew(??) would work. Getting a replacement from Newegg might have just been another from the same lot.

As for having to prove I did ample troubleshooting, the last thing I wanted was to mail it in and have it returned because they couldn't find anything wrong with it, which has happened to me with other things in the past.

The problem is that my platform is not your platform. And if I send you a water pistol with my phone and you receive a handgun on your PC, it is a problem.

So it makes sense for websites to force the rendering, so that everyone gets the same message.

Ideally, that pistol emoji mess shouldn't have started in the first place. It was clearly intended as a real gun, and variations in rendering shouldn't have impacted the meaning, but they did, and that's how we got there. If they wanted to off the real gun for a water pistol, they should have used a different code point, made keyboards only suggest that code point, and maybe censor the original pistol like they do swear words. No ambiguity.
I don't mind point one, and it can be improved in many ways. AI being a huge one.

I agree. The other cases may be mildly surprising, but ultimately fall firmly into the category of "once public on the internet, always public." Deleting a repo or fork or commit doesn't revoke an access key that was accidentally committed, and an access key being public for even a microsecond should be assumed to have been scraped and usable by a malicious actor.
