No no.

It's perfectly simple to put out a lithium battery fire: you spray enough water on it just like any other fire.

What the water dumping is for is making sure it doesn't re-ignite on its own, it's not needed for the immediate firefighting at all.

People imagine firefighters picking up a flaming EV with a crane and dumping it into a container of water - it doesn't work like that :D
The hope is these machines will reduce the number of steps to produce advanced chips (<3nm logic and DRAM), and hopefully the time and money cost of production will be lower compated to the current lithography techniques. A lot of people are still skeptical because of the cost of the machines, the potential low yield, high energy consumption etc.. So we need to see till fabs adopt this (if ever) and if it's the way to go.

If this turns out to be a dead end it'll be a big problem for ASML at the first instance. Also it's going to be good news for China since the technology gap will not be opening further.
My understanding is that all the options have risks and there's no option that is clearly safer.
This makes absolutely no sense.

Taking ideal job traits negative and positive, converting it into correlative personality traits, and guessing the personality trait of the candidate is adding unnecessary abstraction layers with no benefit.

Or to put it another way, just interview the candidate for evidence of the positive and negative traits, don’t do the extra step of translating it into the language of personality theory because the translation is more vague, interpretable, and subjectively biased than the original data.

If you want to use personality traits, it should function as a time saver to quickly approximate candidates potential strengths and weaknesses, which you can hone into with more questioning. It is like alpha beta pruning, used to quickly identify the avenues of further questioning so your time is well spent.
Um, ok. Your position baffles me, because you clearly understand what exponential means mathematically, yet you insist that the word means something else colloquially. Specifically "faster than linear". Usually, people who (mathematically) misuse the term do so because they don't understand what it actually means, but that's not what is happening here.

If it's going to mean something precise, such as

> The slope of the derivative is positive and linear.

then why not pick the precise thing that the word already means?

Is x*log(x) also exponential to you? If so, then why not use the word that already exists: superlinear? If not... oh wait, the above definition I quoted wouldn't even cover x^2, since the slope of its derivative is constant, not linear. So I'm just completely confused; I can't figure out which (mathematically) non-exponential functions you would like to label as exponential. x*1000, no. x^3, yes. x^2, I don't know. x*log(x), I don't know. x^2*log(x), I don't know.

> "Exponential" in the colloquial sense means that the derivative has a positive slope.

"Exponential" in the colloquial sense means that the speaker isn't using a mathematical sense, and so isn't considering first or second derivatives. I don't buy the argument that the colloquial sense accepts x^3 and rejects x^2, and in fact I bet I could find someone using it for a linear relation ("My workload has gone up exponentially since you laid off half the team!")

> "Exponential" in the mathematical sense, means the derivative is a function of x.

No it doesn't. x^2 is not mathematically exponential, yet its derivative is a function of x. Exponential means the derivative is exponential. But that's just a detail that doesn't really change the core of your message.

The main purpose of the mathematical definition is to exclude polynomials. The main purpose of the colloquial definition seems to be something like an impressive or important increase.
In many other places SSNs are non-sensitive data. There is not much one can do just knowing a SSN. Usually one has to do some kind of verification (eg using some sort of authentication app, if online). Which is why it is so confusing.
You're right. Sorry for making a dick comment.
> which we obviously do not have

Yeah, but a lot of us wish we did. So maybe branding plant-based diets that way could be a compelling sales tactic with the nerd demographic.
I'm fairly well-versed in AA, linear alg, topology, a few others. I got zero satisfaction from CT.

don't know if additional vocabulary might help you turn up anything more useful, but the "narrow attention"/"wide attention" dichotomy you point out is something I've mostly heard talked about in metaphorical terms: a "hard eyes"/"soft eyes" dichotomy.

because they are true. "The district then banned 14 titles (bringing its total since 2021 to 30), including popular books by Dr. Seuss and Judy Blume"[0] i don't see how comments like yours are even made here, but at least they are not accepted.

Yes

Bernstein is savvy enough that I suspect he anticipated how the term "safe" would be interpreted by different groups. That is, he expected and perhaps even intended the subsequent cargo culting.
Right now the updates occur daily, we're planning on building a bit more intelligence into the update cadence over time (e.g. once we see we have a stat sig read on how the price change impacted conversion).

Retailers don't approve the discount changes, but they do provide guardrails like maximum discount value to avoid us carving into their margins too much. They can also log in and review / update discounts at any time in our app.
> Aren't they? So, if I want to use a GPL library, all I need to do is write a little wrapper program that does RPC over a socket, and boom, I can use a GPL library in my closed source program?

Yep. This is how MySQL/MariaDB work, for example.
On the consumer side? Higher capacity RAM comes to mind.

What I'd be more interested in is, does this also mean bigger/denser L1-L3 caches?
Steering Characters with Interpretability
Several years ago, I worked at a company called Motif Investing that was conceptually similar this. It was marketed more as a "build your own ETF" kind of thing. You could assemble and weight up to 30 stocks in a "Motif" and manage it over time. We had some of the features you mention as well. I was happy with the product and enjoyed working their, but the business never really took off. I wish you the best in developing your company!

How are you making this list? The thing I surprisingly miss about tv is that what to watch was someone else's problem. YouTube overwhelms me with choices, TV was simple, I liked maybe 4-5 channels and (I later realized) I was implicitly trusting them to have something good on.

If I was allowed to dream, I imagine a world where that specialization is brought back. People curating a feed, which was on average good.
He said something about young single women are really important to society because the under 19s are no longer having children. THis is somewhat a conflation. Under 19s , 30-40 years ago were probably less likely to be single mums. Thats not to say they did not exist, but there were far fewer.
> These commenters are speaking authoritatively on subjects about which they are completely ignorant, but they are strident in doing so because they are repeating what everybody knows. They are intellectually secure in the center of a vast mob; their wisdom was received, not crafted.

This is an important takeaway for me, maybe even more than “electirc devices are washable”.

World is filled with conventional wisdom that limits us in countless directions. Knowing how things work empower us to break these “rules”.
Hey, it's not slop!

I wrote the script, I shot the video, I edited everything — the only place AI was even used in the submissions was to alleviate the pain of tracking down fitting music and re-recording voice overs (both of which I've done manually in the past).

I actually thought the videos would be pretty helpful for a non-handy homeowner.
>Makes that 300k look really much less appealing.

It's a bit more complicated than that though:

- A house mortgaged 10y ago isn't paying 5% interest.

- A house mortgaged today isn't necessarily going to be paying 5% interest for the life of the loan, one can refinance if/when interest rates become more favorable. Interest rates are set to start coming down next month.

- 20k/yr in interest isn't really 20k once one factors in the tax deduction on that money.

- Making 300k by other means is a lot harder, requires a lot more capital or much riskier leveraging than an asset like a home.

Intel is all-in on High NA EUV to try and regain the lead. TSMC and Samsung also have plans for High NA, but not as aggressive, because High NA is not a proven technology, but it will be required to prevent Moore's Law from grinding to a complete halt.

IMEC has just taken steps to prove that High NA can work. They are a European semiconductor R&D company; they don't operate any commercial fabs of their own.
The shared reality, the shared experience of hearing and seeing things at the same time as others are listening, creating content... Radio and TV and theater give this to us, where hyper individual on demand feeds break it.

I hope society decides to retain some level of "over the air" information sharing that is synced.

This is a neat idea.
Without comment on specifically whether or not Apples actions are reasonable, I suspect that if tool manufacturers were expected to provide years of free upgrades to end users of their tools in order to support an ever changing security landscape and close any issues caused by the combination of their tools with 3rd party services, that tool manufacturers would be interested in getting a continual cut of revenue generated by those interactions.

That is, if I buy a paint sprayer, and combine the sprayer with paint sold at Home Depot that a 3rd party maliciously contaminated with caustic chemicals and that combination of sprayer and caustic chemicals caused a reaction in the paint that melts my walls, no one expects the sprayer manufacturer to give me a free new sprayer or even upgrade my current sprayer to be hardened against 3rd party contamination.

On the other hand if NFC protocols today are discovered in 3 years to have a flaw that 3rd parties are using to steal financial data, it’s Apple whose name will be dragged if they only make a change to NFC in newer model phones.
Absolutely! Where else the backbone of every company would get ideas for their presentations.
EVs are unknown and thus scary. They're the nuclear power plants of the vehicle industry.

The media also makes a big headline every time a Tesla catches fire in Finland, Minnesota and the thousands of ICE vehicles on fire don't warrant even a minor note.
I'd still wager that is why it didn't win any prizes though. They don't want to show a video spraying WD40 in nature.

In recent years I've been running into more and more people who will say all sorts of things are social media on the basis that they let you talk to other people. This has happened in reference to reddit comments, web forums, Discord, Telegram . . .

There seem to be some neo-cyberpunk LARPers taking interest in stuff like Usenet and IRC for kewl points. I wonder if these are also "social media".

Of course, it doesn't help that pretty much everyone has been saying "social media" for years when they almost always meant "social networking".
Does anyone else think this should be made into a movie?

It's a great question!

A sandbox is a testing environment that isolates untested changes & experimentations from the production environments.

Chances are if you're using Salesforce for work, it's the "production" instance that is meant for prime-time. There is probably some admin/developer/IT person in your company that has access to creating sandboxes to test changes before they push to everyone else.

fwiw typically this is used by larger companies & isn't as useful for small startups.

Honestly i don't think it will. Rather it will make that problem worse. Only when everyone has nudes will it feel less embarrassing to see your AI-self in explicit situations being passed around.

Basically it'll have to be so common that people don't care to pass it around.
As Eisenhower put it: "Peace-time plans are of no particular value, but peace-time planning is indispensable."

In other words, the act of planning means you're better prepared for specific contingencies, so you'll hopefully be better prepared for whatever actually happens, but some improvisation will always be necessary.
No I'm sorry, for my harsh and unconstructive comment. It was unkind and I shouldn't have made it.
The italics around "may" makes me think you misunderstood. If I said "I may be forgetful, but I'm no liar", I am admitting to be forgetful.

There is no ambiguity here. SpaceX said "The initial application was updated within 30 days to correct the typo" because they definitely made a typo. The rest of their explanation pretty conclusively shows that this is a non-issue, as is the incomplete application.
I mean, sure, but not every post/blog has to be "useful to the reader". That last "n" of "n" fiction books I read were equally useless, but I'm glad I read them.
Well done. My team built this at Disney six years ago when we were trying to solve content discovery problems. The problem with endless carousels of thumbnails is that it really doesn't draw you in. Sometimes you just need to drop people into content like it's channel surfing.

Netflix tried something similar a few years ago, but in my opinion it missed a critical ingredient, which was dropping people into the middle of content at a compelling point.

Really like the execution here. YouTube take note.
Most of the (tech) companies out there don’t need the “best” engineers to succeed. Tired of seeing how we reject candidates simply because they haven’t worked for known companies or because they cannot reverse a bin tree in 20 min. Mind you, all we are doing is burning investors money, so I guess it doesn’t really matter.
I'm not sure that's stopped them; it would be trivial for them to find some reason, as long as it leads to the conclusion they want.
For what it's worth, old lock grease tends to move away from where it's needed and turn into a hard, waxy substance. It's arguably better to have a lock cleaned and slightly lubricated with WD-40 than one gummed up with ancient grease and dirt, or worse, rusted.

I've heard a lot of anecdotes in every direction: only use graphite, only use a cleaning solvent. I've never read anything authoritative and I suspect the ideal approach is to regularly (e.g. every decade) disassemble the lock, clean it thoroughly, and inject grease, but nobody is going to do that.
I absolutely want electronics built into car! Requirements for antilock brakes, electronic fuel injection, and other electronics in vehicles has made them safer and more efficient. The other items on your list I can agree with, though.

My question is how would those stamps exist in the first place? Is the idea that Canon or w/e will ship their physical cameras with keys, and sign those images with the keys. Now when you go to look at an image it'll be verified Canon, or w/e.

In that world wouldn't keys leak pretty easily? The key exists on the device. Is there a way this sort of stuff is actually viable? Or do i have the model entirely wrong?
I think that "cultural" interviews are underrated as a distinguisher; just because they seem so subjective. However, if the correct, non-domain specific, person conducts the interview, it can be a great source of information. At the most basic level, it assesses whether the candidate is a complete nut, or not; it assesses whether that individual, outside of any skills considerations, can work with others in the organization, either as a follower, peer, or leader. A competent person doing these types of interviews is essentially conducting an unstructured, informal, personality assessment and producing some very valuable insights to others later in the process. We ought not discount intuition, or "feel". A genuinely insightful person conducting a good screening interview may be the most valuable person in your hiring organization.
For starters, they require people to be self aware which automatically fails half the population.

Eric Schmidt Blames Google's A.I. Struggle on Remote Work
Well... Just another one who try to save financial capitalism at the expense of innovation and human wellness, stating without even try to prove the statement that what financial capitalism need it's needed to win, while this model actually fall all over the world.

Of course firing talents it's definitively not to blame I imaging, trying to be bureaucratic, managing people like sheep etc are normal things and as usual it's always someone else fault.
In the same vein, humans don't eat calories, like we don't eat vitamins, minerals, protein, etc: we eat food. Even today when there is more popular knowledge (though to be fair, mainly confusion) about the nutrient content of food, most people will gravitate to what they are used to eating culturally, and what tastes good. Which, incidentally, is how we end up eating a lot of stuff that's really not good for us at all.
If this turns out to be a dead end, Intel will be in even deeper shit. They've been buying up all of ASML's High NA machines before the technique has been completely proven. It's a bold move.

I think that's one of the biggest screwups people make with WD-40 is that it's basically just a petroleum solvent and other than maybe initially unsticking things, it often makes the problem worse. As far as solvents go it's not particularly great, and in terms of lubricating or breaking free it's pretty bad. I'm surprised they still sell as much of it as they do (chalk it up to good marketing), when for basically everything there's a better choice (protip: if something is really stuck, the best tool provided you don't have dogs or children getting near is going to be acetone mixed with a good ATF).

Don't hold your breath. HN is full of people with credentials, and people with credentials tend to push credentialism, and that means deferring to the experts on other fields so that others will defer to one in one's field of expertise.

Mike Shapiro at Sun was fond of telling us that "we're not specialists -- we're generalists who can specialize as needed". I think that is a good attitude in general. It doesn't mean we get to weigh in on things we know nothing about, but it does mean we get to do critical thinking and that we can self-educate in order to form opinions when necessary.

* Add keyboard shortcuts for ease of channel surfing.
