Most sites don't have the SLA or other reliability requirements that dictate crazy uptime. If they have no need, they won't structure their infrastructure for it because doing so is expensive. Big cloud companies have that figured out because their customers want it. Other, smaller sites feel that their money is better spent elsewhere.
What ever do you mean? There was no change in understanding. You spoke to seeking a proof in addition to a citation, the parent did not originally speak to the proof bit, only to a citation. Entirely different contexts.

In fact, you would have noticed, if you read it, that the "upstream" comment doesn't even touch on the citation at all. It is focused entirely on the proof aspect. While the parent wanted to talk about citations exclusively, at least at the onset. Very different things, very different topics.

Because the implication is that there is non-monetary profit. The person is describing it not as a loss but as an investment, because it was an investment in themselves and their ability to sleep at night and an investment in their child feeling safe and whatever other impossible-to-directly-price externalities were realized as a result of the monetary loss.
Interesting! I have always worn symmetric contacts when I (rarely) wear contacts, because I can’t get astigmatism contacts them to sit comfortably in my eyes and not pop out. I wonder if I were to align them first if they would be comfortable enough to wear. I’ll give it a try next time I’m at the optometrist.
Even without such a hardline stance on advertising: there is simply no other way to avoid sponsored YouTube segments despite being a YouTube Premium subscriber and sponsoring a channel directly. Maybe not everyone agrees with the former but I've not seen a single debate against the latter.
Only one of my cars has a key fob, and I finally took that fob off my keychain once I realized that I can use the 5 digit keypad on the door to lock and unlock it. It's very freeing only having a few small keys in your pocket and not a bunch of giant fobs.

Beckham is known for his precision in kicking. It's his whole thing.

Beckham actually did hit the trash cans in practice kicks; this happened on a public beach and there were plenty of fans hanging around watching it happen.

That being said, it would have required an alteration of the laws of physics to land a soccer ball in the trash can as the diameter of the opening of most beach trash cans of that style in the LA area is smaller than the diameter of a soccer ball. (There are several styles of trash cans on LA area beaches. Several of them have capped/shielded openings; some of their are just uncapped basic cylinders, and others are cylinders with lids and narrow openings. The purpose of the caps/narrow openings is to limit the ability of wildlife like seagulls from getting at the trash. Generally, the uncapped basic trash cans are limited to more popular beaches where the trash cans will be emptied daily.)

I am not an expert on control theory, but I don't see how what you quoted is really the same concept as antifragility. A control system can compensate for disturbances, and may even perform better with some types of disturbances but that is just 'robustness' and isn't antifragility - where the system is progressively improved in a lasting way by stressors over time, like a person getting better at a sport by repeatedly training for it.

Should we be celebrating this, or even talking about it as if it's remotely sensible? Even putting aside that mobile software is designed to undermine your personal interests, getting a laptop that's good for a decade (or more) and then churning your phone less often is likely a win on straight device cost.
They could stop sponsored segments, but they couldn't stop creators and users from going to other platforms where they allow sponsored segments.

It's been better for me, it doesn't happen nearly as often as it used to. The worst of it was around the beginning of this year.
So I get pixel because of security and less software bloat, along with good custom ROM support.

That being said, at least for me, my phone is the device I spend the most time with, whether articals, emails, books, podcasts etc.

It is at least 5 hrs a day.

This is probably an argument to spend less time on my phone, but the will is weak.

But if I am spending a significant percentage of my waking life interacting with this single electronic device, a price difference of 500 dollars is not much, especially amortized over a 3 year period.
There is already extraordinary evidence that something in physics is behaving differently at larger scales: the behavior of galaxies (spin, gravity pull) doesn't match their mass. Any mass. There is no single mass value that predicts their entire behavior correctly. Thus dark matter, dark energy etc competing theories, which are so far untestable.

It wouldn't surprise me if we discover someday another Doppler mechanism that occurs at those same large scales
It's almost like there should be a, I don't know, STANDARD test suite that peripherals, phones, and chips that want to use the Bluetooth STANDARD would have to pass in order to advertise being compatible with the Bluetooth STANDARD, as directed and administered by the Bluetooth STANDARD organization.

Bluetooth is so old that it was coming into use when Computer Shopper was still published. It's been a dumpster fire of compatibility since its inception.

There's one of two culprits on the Android side: either its the device drivers, or the OS itself. Device drivers should be capable of being subjected to stringent acceptance standards in order to advertise "Bluetooth". If it's the OS, that's even worse since it is higher up the abstraction stack. At least the device drivers being closer to hardware have an excuse.

Bluetooth is 26 years old. A 26 year old industry standard should be better than a coinflip as to whether some bluetooth thingamajig will work with a mobile OS. It's just sad.
Plenty of OSS authors are contributing from work, so there's a good chance they're running LTS distros. Give it another few years for those to get updated.
>but it does mean we should refrain from assuming it must be true just because nobody can find anything better.

The vast majority of science is not disproving a theory but adding nuance to it. Newtonian physics wasn't disproven by quantum physics, but quantum physics showed that Newtonian physics has limitations as a model. It's not unreasonable to assume our best model is true until there is a reasonable amount of data to the contrary.

As others have said, your point adds little to the conversation until you bring good data to the argument.

Following my first successful business, I realized that no business can be successful without the support (knowing or not) of the community the business is part of.

So I started a kind of tithing, giving 10% of my gross revenue back to my local community as a form of repayment and thanks.

From years of doing this, I have evolved rules about it in order to avoid various problems.

1) The organization must be one that is usually overlooked for giving. So no big guys.

2) The organization must be local.

3) The organization has to have an obvious and tangible public benefit.

4) The organization must not ask me for money or engage in splashy fundraising.

5) The organization must keep my identity a secret. If they can't promise that, no donation. If they break their promise, no further donations.

That's about it!

I had similarly painful experiences. Also the project I was on was mostly in maintenance mode, with mostly junior engineers out of college on it who had little experience with that particular code. Not many tests. Lots of code archaeology and "I'm crossing my fingers I didn't just break some subset of the enormous configuration space of this tool"
Sure, they have cameras up in public spaces, on the casino floors, etc. No one is going to argue with their right to place cameras on their private property like that.

Hotel rooms are a different matter, though. People should and do expect levels of privacy similar to that of a rented apartment. (Lower levels, but similar.)

As someone who has worked on diffusion model, it's a clear reject and not a very interesting architecture. The idea is to train a diffusion model to fit to low dimensional data using two MLPs: one accounts for high-level structure and one accounts for low level details. These kind of "global-local" architecture is very common in computer vision/graphics (with the paper mentioned none of the relevant work), so the novelty is low. The experiments also do not clearly showcase where exactly this "dual" structure brings benefits.

That being said, it's very hard to tell it apart from a normal poorly-written paper from a quick glance. If you tell me it's written by a graduate student, I would probably believe it. It is also interesting in a way that maybe for low-dimensional signals there are some architecture tweaks we can do to modify the existing diffusion model architectures to make things better, so maybe not 100% BS.
I'm open to being convinced otherwise, but I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't get why opt-out telemetry is such a big deal.

Sure, if it's a software library, I don't want it doing random network calls during my runtime. That's just rude.

But if it's a user application (including a compiler), I don't see what the fuss is about. Of all the myriad of ways our data is harvested every single day, telemetry seems very unhelpful to advertisers and hackers, but very helpful to the people whose job it is to make the software you use better. I'd love to help them make the software I use better
In my experience, the latest experimental model is a bit better than the latest Claude/ChatGPT at creativity, but a little worse at general reasoning. They're still mostly comparable and certainly of the same generation.

Where it truly stands out is the 2M context window. That's game-changing for things like analyzing publications and books.
Really? The Pixel 8, my first Pixel, shipped without working USB webcam support, which was one of the advertised launch features. To actually get that feature you had to switch to the beta release track, which of course broke lots of the other things on the phone. Notable things that have been broken for a month or more on the beta track since I owned a Pixel 8 include tap to pay and the unlock screen.

No. Xenix through at least version 2.1 ran on the original IBM PC (and early Xenix was ported to the 68000 (e.g. Tandy model 16), which also lacked hardware VM support).[1] You could also run IBM PC Unix in the form of Venix from Venturecom (Version 7 with some BSD things) and PC/IX from ISC (System III). Both were 'official' licensed Unix ports. In the Unix-ish camp, there was Coherent and Minix, as well as various MMU-less Linux projects (e.g. ELKS). And there are many interesting oddballs like iRMX.

Yes, OS/2 did require a 286 until it required a 386.

Pixel phones are among the best, and getting better as Google gets more experience shipping hardware. I've had a ton of Pixel phones and there are definitely paper cuts here and there, but:

> IMHO all Pixel phones are just developer devices and you can't seriously use them as daily drivers.

Is ridiculously hyperbolic.

OnePlus phones are also really good when new, although updates often introduce new bugs. When OnePlus was more affordable it was less of an issue, but with current prices I expect several years out of a device that expensive.

Just get a Pixel.

I think this is kind of useless information unless presented with other spheres for humans, structures, animals, plants, forests etc. for comparison. And ants.
Here is a quote from Marcus Aurelius which captures the same key concept as antifragility:

“The impediment to action advances action, what stands in the way becomes the way.”

What he is getting at here is that adapting to and overcoming challenges improves your skills, and opens up new ideas and possibilities. The stoics believe that if life goes smoothly and easily, it is actively harmful, and that hardship is required for personal growth.

The core idea of antifragility (which Taleb rigorously defines as a math/engineering principle in his papers) is also that a certain type of system that responds to a stressor in a specific way, can be progressively improved in a lasting way by experiencing that stressor, and conversely, harmed by not experiencing it. For example, an astronaut that spends time in zero gravity loses muscle mass and can lose the ability to walk, whereas a person doing heavy strength training on earth could train themselves strong enough to stand and walk while holding many times their bodyweight.

A more subtle aspect of this for the stoics would be where someone creatively turns a hardship into a unique opportunity. Think someone that loses their job because of a neurodevelopmental disorder, but then ends up studying ways to manage the disorder, and becomes a bestselling author sharing what they learned.
Interesting! And then maybe once you factor in health care costs etc it comes out at pretty much the same
