You're probably just getting old and I don't think most people appreciate the effect that years of being relatively sedentary can have on you. I ran competitively in high school and stayed at it mostly recreationally, but not consistently, joined the Army at one point, then got badly injured in my 30s and didn't run for nearly a decade. Now I run again in my 40s, frankly more than I ever did before.

At age 12, I ran a 5:05 mile with no training except running a weekly all-out mile for PE class. At age 14, I ran a 17:14 5K after three months of training in my first cross-country meet of my first season. I PRed at 16:04 two years later. In my late 20, I was still hitting an 11:30 2-mile in the Army's fitness test pretty easily, mostly without running. I swam every day, did a lot of rowing, and ran track repeats for 8 weeks leading up to the test.

Today, I run almost 80 miles a week right now, a structured, principled program, and I can't get anywhere remotely close to the times I once used to run almost effortlessly. Same person, same genetics, but in my 40s after a decade of being mostly sedentary. It takes its toll and it makes people who take this up as a hobby because they got fat in their 30s think something is impossible that likely would have been quite doable if they'd been doing it their entire lives.

Based on the Wikipedia article[0], it seems clear that the Supreme Court can declare a treaty unconstitutional just as it can with a federal statute. The president also appears to have the power to unilaterally withdraw from treaties whenever he wishes and treaties don't take effect without an act of Congress implementing them. In other words, the treaty power is very weak under US law. In short, the US government cannot be bound by any treaty against the will of the people's elected representatives. The fears motivating support for the Bricker Amendment[1] during the Eisenhower administration seem to have been unfounded.

Your images at the top appear to be very low quality and not related to your images at the bottom.

Your girl slider appears to be using an ai generated photorealistic photo base as the woman has a long strand of hair that comes from nowhere (or her armpit?)

The styles are vastly different for boy and girl. I don’t even think most of these are “anime”

What is this exactly? It has the vibe of being ai generated itself with lots of repetition and a lack of focus
First I ever hear of the guy and I'm an immediate fan
I know that dogs have evolved to be man's best friend, and I see that in the attachments friends have with their doggos. Dogs are also fairly intelligent, and with that comes will.

I follow Arnold Schwarzenegger on Twitter (he has a lot of interesting things to say). One thing he said recently was that going to the gym feeling great and having a great workout doesn't get you results. It's when you still go to the gym when feeling bad and unmotivated and sick of working out and you still work out - that's where the gains come from.

That's where the more sophisticated mind comes in - sacrificing the short term for the long term gain.

I simply don't believe that living only in the moment can produce comparable results. If it did, why does evolution trend towards more intelligence?

BTW, as I remarked in a recent interview I did, results (for me) have come from dogged persistence, not any genius (I know actual geniuses, I am not at all like them). It's amazing what anyone can accomplish if they show up and work on it every day.

Years ago, someone complained that I had a "talent for hard work", and that was unfair. That's one of the dumbest things I ever heard.

You obviously know a lot more about horses than I do, I accept that. But I have a couple questions:

1. It the trainer doesn't show up one day, does the horse train itself?

2. I've never seen two riderless horses race each other. Does this ever happen?

If the answer is "no" to both, then the will is coming from the trainer, not the horse.
You certainly could try. But don’t expect experts in the field to bother to do any of the legwork for you, and that includes learning about all the evidence that your model has to account for to be remotely as good as our existing ones.
You’re trying to say that I’m defining success as money and he’s defining it as more wholesome factors.

That’s not what’s happening.
UX-wise, I'm not sure why everyone is so keen on voice commands for AI.

Why let everyone in earshot know what you're up to? Sure, it's easier than typing all that text given crappy feedback of these smartphone onscreen keyboards.

If you show a pic to Google Lens app, the app will proceed to identify text and highlight those text passages.

In the AI-verse, Lens could detect the concert tour.

- if the tour was in the past, Lens could look up in Photos any media with GPS locations at those concert locations/dates and show them.

- if the tour is now/in the future, Lens could detect the dates and locations, and look up in your calendar to find when you are available. If you are available when the tour comes to your town, Lens would show a big green checkmark next to that date/location pair or highlight that date/location. Otherwise, it goes into search mode and crosses out dates/location when you aren't available. For out-of-town locations when you are available, Lens could start up Maps to search for flights to those locations. Perhaps a search of your contacts to see if you have friends/relatives in/near those out-of-town locations. or look in your calendar to see if you've been to any of those out-of-town locations before, etc. etc.

That'd impress me.
The bill was co-sponsored and put together by Republican and Democrat senators which is why they call it bipartisan. I agree that I would prefer the bill didn't have any riders and was just a border bill but none of the Republican complaints have to do with the aid to Ukraine so I don't think it is relevant here.
I wouldn’t set the bar for “professional” so low but it’s really just incongruous to say that it’s somehow easy and democratic to take care of running a server, registering a domain, setting up DNS, and creating some kind of web application but following high-quality documentation to add an extra couple of lines of configuration magically transforms it into a major barrier. In most cases, you don’t even need to do it yourself since most hosting companies have some kind of recipe which covers most of the work.
I also use Tubular on Android. The one caveat is that Youtube changes seem to break the app on a regular basis so you do need to periodically return to the Github repo to update it.

I’m not clear on this.

Perhaps I’m wrong about the arrow in step 5 and they really don’t have arrows in the first place, killing the animal with a knife.

Or perhaps they can’t get close enough with their arrows on day 1. Some of these antelope are really large and aggressive - you wouldn’t want to wound one.
My understanding is that there were no changes for the actual raid, but "with felony interference in the judicial process" due to actions taken after the raid.

"In Monday’s report, prosecutors highlight a section of state statutes indicating that charges against Cody might be related to statements made by former Marion restaurant owner Kari Newell that Cody urged her to destroy evidence of text messages the two had exchanged."

http://marionrecord.com. Paper cleared; ex-chief faces felony charge

https://kansasreflector.com/2024/08/13/former-marion-police-...

A conviction would likely only result in probation for a low level felony he is no longer in a position to repeat offend in.

https://www.kansas.com/opinion/opn-columns-blogs/dion-lefler...
"We can safely assume the video recording is accidental for two reasons: 1) At the start of the conversation, Cody warns Newell, “We can’t write anything” to each other and she replies “Yeah, I know, I understand.” And 2) Immediately after he hangs up, Cody video-recorded himself taking a leak in the men’s room at a Casey’s General Store."

https://www.kake.com/features/special-content/untold-story-k...
"The day after we completed this interview, Newell revealed the chief had asked her to delete text messages between them after rumors began that they were romantically involved. She says there's no truth to those rumors, but she deleted the texts anyway - then immediately regretted it."

Honestly. Hide in bush, shoot the animal with that arrow previously mentioned.

That seems much better?
They probably just mean in terms of reversability; LASIK is obviously permanent, but ICL can be undone.

Both procedures are relatively low risk; each has their own set of drawbacks and qualifying conditions (eg - ICL isn't recommended for people who are over 45 years old).

Things I learned from teaching (2023)
No idea, since the "article" is an hour-long podcast with no option to read it.

But I'd venture to guess that "Scott Carrier is incapable of running down an antelope" does not imply "humans are incapable of endurance hunting, full stop."
Sometimes "very interesting stuff" gets resubmitted by the HN gods for a second try and it messes up the timestamp too, although I guess in this case it was a resubmission indeed

The Stern-Gerlach experiment is imo the best way to learn the basic idea of quantum mechanics as derived from a reasonably simple experiment. Much better than the double-slit experiment which is more confusing and about which there is a lot of terribly incorrect discussion online.

I would recommend another source with some nice diagrams though, like hyperphysics, or the opening chapter of Modern Quantum Mechanics by Sakurai (although it's a graduate level book, the opening chapter is simple enough).

Yes.
I think it's a good deal. After-tax price is ~$1082, trade-in is $699, with a $200 store credit ($300 with a Google 1 sub), and $21 back from 2% credit card rewards. So ~$162 cost, which is not much more than the increase in trade-in value. Plus the 1 year of Gemini Advanced and maybe some YouTube premium months.

The main downside is that store credit expires in 1 year. Also I hate buying new phone cases.
I did that with S town. I missed a wedding. . . .

The most brilliant thing about remote work is that you can remain constantly productive without deviating from the subject matter of employment.

I was never able to do that working in an office without serious ethical violations. Never have I, in my development career, been so overloaded with assignments as to be continuously engaged with actual work. So, what about the rest of that time? I suppose I could read research papers while at the office, but to be a better developer I actually use that time to write original software to solve real problems from real life.

What makes working from home different? Personal equipment by personal learning not restricted by employer policies.
What does that have to do with the employee experience though?
Nope. The experiment is to see if it's possible to run down an animal completely unaided, then capture or kill it. It sounded like they want to duplicate a pre-tool use scenario but I'm personally in the same camp as you - seems a lot more likely that pre-tool hominids would have probably been pretty good at chucking rocks or pointy sticks.
Bummer this was the most valuable part of Intel.
Isn’t this entire class of ships due to be decommissioned, due to huge cracks and other issues?
Much easier if you’re closer to beast and it is tired. For instance, if we wanted to catch chicken as child we had to first tie it to tree so that we wouldn’t miss and then shoot it with bow and arrow. Otherwise you miss too much and arrow gets blunt. You want to maximize arrow usage because it’s hard to make.
You can control that.
The funny thing is, though, you can easily dismiss a crazy idea like "omnitech space squid", but a majority of humans on Earth today have entire worldviews based on equally silly ideas, and it's considered wrong somehow to mock these belief systems. In fact, many scientists subscribe to these silly belief systems, but then get offended if you make up an equally silly idea about space squid or flying spaghetti monsters.
Have you tried emailing them?
You would write

Mutex<HashMap<CustomerID, Account>>

Instead of

HashMap<CustomerID, Mutex<Account>>

Using a singleton is kind of overkill.

But in the real world you'd probably use a transactional database for this (there are a few in memory options) with retries.
Because LLMs WILL dominate all NLP use cases, whether you like it or not.

Its like the linux of operating systems. Sure you can handwrite up some custom OS more specialized for a purpose. But its much easier to just use linux, which everyone understands on a basic level and is extremely robust, and modifying it slightly for the end goal.

And saying "Traditional sentiment analysis" tools are "Battle tested" is laughable. LLMs in the past year alone, probably has 1000x the cumulative usage of all sentiment analysis tools in history.

LLMs get 100 billion + each year in research, improvements, engineering, optimisations.

LLMs keep rapidly improving year to year in capabilities. Sonnet 3.5 already obliterates the original GPT-4 in every aspect.

LLMs keep getting cheaper year to year. Gemini flash is like 100x cheaper than the original GPT3.5.

You can onboard any person who can write python, to start using LLMs to perform language analysis in a day. Versus weeks to use these traditional tools.

Nearly all NLP tasks will be standardised to use LLMs as the baseline default tool. Sure there'll be some short term degradations in some specific aspect, but there's no stopping the tide.

By the way, traditional ML-based translation is also pretty much dead and replaced by LLMs. I've been seeing an explosion in fan-translations done by say Sonnet 3.5, the improvement in fluency and accuracy is just radical and extreme, I often don't even notice the AI-translation anymore.
Why would AI put this on the downtrend? ML OPs is huge

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to accomplish at a high level? I mostly don't agree with the individual points and sentiment though, so for now I'll touch on a few of those.

1. Individuals don't revive the regular process. OP offered their opinions and took the time to write them well enough for us to form some of our own. Democracy, in its ideal form, measures a society of perfectly informed minds, each drawing on their own experience. Ours might not live up to that ideal, but calmly describing pros/cons in current policy doesn't seem like a bad move. It's also not mutually exclusive with voting the "right" people in.

2. Appointed judges deciding policy can absolutely be democratic. If we're allowed to be one step removed with a representative democracy, why not 2? It's a nuanced problem, not an ALL-CAPS emergency.

2a. Particular judges seem to currently be behaving badly with little recourse. Maybe we should fix that. Maybe Chevron is a smokescreen enabling that problem. If that's what's happening, we should call a spade a spade. Maybe in that case it's worth fighting the new Chevron decision as a stop-gap measure, but that's very different from arguing that it's a bad decision a priori.

3. We'll see what abuse happens (abuse always happens; most major laws are worth a retrospective to see what the 2nd order effects actually were), but the decision was, at face value, absolutely not about judges deciding policy. It was saying that when ambiguity requiring judging exists, a judge should resolve that ambiguity. That's not a God-given nugget of ethics, but it is stronger than you seem to be giving it credit for.

4. Somewhat unrelated, suppose an ideal world exists where this particular decision is revoked (posit the existence; I'm not currently arguing for the decision one way or the other). If the policy makes our country better in the next 1, 5, or 10 years, is it worth being held back just because we can imagine a hypothetical world with a better congress?
What about money doesn't matter to a company? Why should you isolate an engineer from that as though it doesn't matter?

As an electrical engineer, we scrounged for every cent on devices when they were being released. A TVS diode can be replaced with a capacitor? That's a cent. A cheaper processor? Several tens of cents. Over ten million devices plus the legacy of your design into the next generations, that's a lot of money. Someone else negotiates the price of the TVS diode and the processor, but that doesn't mean you should be isolated from the cost. A thing that does X and is more expensive is worse than a thing that does X cheaply.

Software engineers spend fractional cents on requests executed thousands of times per second. That's the same scale as the electrical engineering example when you do this.

As far as I can tell, most good software engineers are very cost aware. That doesn't mean they don't do stuff. They just understand the cost of that stuff. This does seem to be a big divide between senior and junior engineers, as well.

I'm a pretty greasy person and while obviously it's not as good as rubber I don't feel the same way about glass phones. They're obviously smooth but glass on skin is pretty grippy, overall.
I have 5 year old Note9, and recently broke my display where small part of it is just black. I have been searching for a phone to replace it with, with very few criteria: modern SOC, non-folding, not ugly looking.

Its breathtaking how many phones just go nuts on their backside, stuff Id be ashamed to pull out in public (oneplus 12, oneplus open, xiaomi 14 ultra). When theres finally some normal lens housing that isnt protruding on a side making the phone wobble while laid flat on a table (like almost every remaining phone), it almost doubles the phone width.

And then when theres finally a phone Id like to buy thanks to its big battery, sleek design and no front camera cutout (Nubia Redmagic 9 Pro), the must fuck it up by adding a freaking fan to it. And ofc their Z60 Ultra has again huge and uneven camera housing with red accent around main camera.

Its as if every manufacturer is either conforming to herd, or going batshit crazy.

The reason people are buying those phone is because theres no choice. Not that theres no choice because people are buying it.
If you're not doing math, you're not doing physics.

Lookup what General Relativity actually is, what it looks like. The mass-energy tensor and the extremely complicated underlying partial differential equations it is actually encoding.[1]

Every parseable language explanation is irrelevant: the mathematics works. If you have an alternative idea...then the mathematics needs to work. What that means is irrelevant, provided it makes useful predictions and does not contradict established observations.

I like saying "hey google play drum and bass" into my wrist as I ride my bike. I also run the Dexcom continguous blood sugar monitor graph as my always-on watchface. I also have Home Assistant assigned to a button, so whatever I speak gets emailed to me as text, or if it starts with "question" it uses groq llama3 to reply a short answer on the screen.

Perhaps if I had a free Garmin I would give it a whirl, but I know very little about it's capabilities. So that's why I have a Samsung Watch4 currently. Also the 40mm version is really small which I like. I can't stand medium/large watches.

Nothing can be said publicly.
> mirroring obvious thoughts that actual physicists have of course already thought of decades ago, and in much more detail.

They will eventually die and a younger generation will enter the field who don't know why those ideas were dismissed. For all you know you're shutting down a 14-year-old (either directly or someone observing) who is actually interested and may become one of those physicists.
