Despite their good reputation (mostly associated with their RAM), Kingston is just a repackager of third-party parts. They don't actually make any of their products themselves.

Therefore, you indeed can't trust their original packaging if they themselves don't vet their supply chain properly.

This is in stark contrast to manufacturer-vendors like Samsung, Micron (Crucial), and SanDisk (Western Digital) who manufacture either all or at least the core components of their products and have their own manufacturing reputation on the line.
Wait, there's a beautiful version?!

Some people get fat just looking at food, and this may get worse with age. Slow metabolisms, bad genes can play a role. This does not necessarily explain rising rates of obesity over time, but it can explain how some people become obese so easily despite not eating that much or why obesity is so hard to treat or the high failure rates of dieting.
This is so encouraging :)

At this point i'm starting to get into programming the servos and figuring out leg kinematics. Unfortunately i'm not an expert but I left in all of my mistakes (no video edits) so hopefully others can learn from them. Or do you think I should just edit mistakes and only show the path that worked?
Absolutely, don’t get me wrong, all the other brands are fine tools, and nowadays even aliexpress soldering stations work wonders even for professional use, years ago only metcal and JBC had the “instant heat” technology, same for the microscope 4k 120fps cameras are trivial now but not so long ago they where unaffordable for the common person and optical stereo inspection micoscopes were a bit more affordable but the working distance and as commented here they are uncomfortable for longer use, the mantis was a revolution in that too.
I would be dying to know how they square these product decisions against their corporate charter internally. From the charter:

> We will actively cooperate with other research and policy institutions; we seek to create a global community working together to address AGI’s global challenges.

> We are committed to providing public goods that help society navigate the path to AGI. Today this includes publishing most of our AI research, but we expect that safety and security concerns will reduce our traditional publishing in the future, while increasing the importance of sharing safety, policy, and standards research.

It's obvious to everyone in the room what they actually are, because their largest competitor actually does what they say their mission is here -- but most for-profit capitalist enterprises definitely do not have stuff like this in their mission statement.

I'm not even mad or sad, the ship sailed long ago. I just really want to know what things are like in there. If you're the manager who is making this decision, what mental gymnastics are you doing to justify this to yourself and your colleagues? Is there any resistance left on the inside or did they all leave with Ilya?

I’d love to see what grinders and specific burrs she used.

We also setup a blinded coded triangle test, there was only 3 of us and four grinders: one $5k grinder, 2x$2.5k, one $700. 2 flat 2 conical. The flats have teeth supposedly for filter brewing. One coffee.

We picked the grinders correctly. Obviously we could have better methods, but the differences seemed obvious between the flats and conical. Within the same geometry, I think I just guessed the better tasting one to me was the more expensive grinder which may or may not be true. This surprised us. We didn’t think we’d pick anything. But all agreed on similar tasting notes for the flats and conical with no proper discussion or even looking at the notes for the coffee.

Brewing espresso I even observe psychical differences during the brew. I have two sets of flat burrs from the same grinder. Different teeth pattern. Same coating. One set allows me to go much finer to hit the same grams per second out and always leaves a soupy mess in the basket regardless of setting. The other doesn’t leave a soupy mess and grinds courser. I don’t know what’s happening. But this is easy to reproduce.

But then again, I also have a hand grinder that tastes more like my flats. And was quite cheap. So flat vs conical may not matter at all and it’s the shape of the cutting surface.
They figured out how to make it completely useless I guess. I was disappointed but not surprised when they said they weren't going to show us chain of thought. I assumed we'd still be able to ask clarifying questions but apparently they forgot that's how people learn. Or they know and they would rather we just turn to them for our every thought instead of learning on our own.
> Yip. It's pretty obvious this 'innovation' is just based off training data collected from chain-of-thought prompting by people, ie., the 'big leap forward' is just another dataset of people repairing chatgpt's lack of reasoning capabilities.

Which would be ChatGPT chat logs, correct?

It would be interesting if people started feeding ChatGPT deliberately bad repairs due it's "lack of reasoning capabilities" (e.g. get a local LLM setup with some response delays to simulate a human and just let it talk and talk and talk to ChatGPT), and see how it affects its behavior over the long run.

Ok I think I understand your intention with the code now. Sorry I was wrong before. I think what you're talking about here is what gets called the "detection loophole" in most of the literatire. The idea that if we detect only a small enough fraction of the events then they can be a sufficiently unrepresentative sample that we think we violated a Bell inequality even though the full statistics don't.

This has (in my opinion) been comprehensively addressed already. You can check out the references in the section of the wiki article here

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_test#Detection_loophole

but basically if you detect enough of the possible events in the experiment there is no way for nature to "trick" you in this way, "enough" is 83% for the standard CHSH inequality or 66% if you use a slightly modified. Recent experiments (in the last decade or so) are substantially over the threshold for the detection loophole to be a problem. This is one of the earliest papers where this loophole was closed with space-like seperated detectors from 2015. In this paper they used entangled NV centers in diamond as their qubits of choice, and so essentialy had zero events lost.

https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.05949

This is a second one from the same time. This one uses a more standard setup with photons and worked with about 75% detector efficiency for each party (well above the 66% required)

https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.03189

And this is a third with an efficiency of 78% for Alice and 76% for Bob

https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.03190

I therefore have a new challenge - break the CHSH inequality, while rejecting fewer than 17% of the events, or break the (easier) modified Bell inequality used in papers 2 & 3 while rejecting fewer than a third.

Edit: This is another, more recent paper where they use superconducting qubits and again lose no events

There definitely was a huge outage, but based on the given information we still can't know for sure how much they invested in testing and quality control.

There's always a chance of failure even for the most meticulous companies.

Now I'm not defending or excusing the company, but a singular event like this can happen to anyone and nothing is 100%.

If thorough investigation revealed poor quality control investment compared to what would be appropriate for a company like this, then we can say for sure.

In a stateless service in the OO sense, it is perfectly fine to GET something, and then GET something different the next time you run the same request. (Probably because someone POSTed between your two GETs.) Because of mutable state.

FP statelessness means no mutable state, so two identical GETs will of course return the same result.

> With NIST releasing an initial group of finalized post-quantum encryption standards, we are excited to bring these into SymCrypt, starting with ML-KEM (FIPS 203, formerly Kyber), a lattice-based key encapsulation mechanism (KEM). In the coming months, we will incorporate ML-DSA (FIPS 204, formerly Dilithium), a lattice-based digital signature scheme and SLH-DSA (FIPS 205, formerly SPHINCS+), a stateless hash-based signature scheme.

> In addition to the above PQC FIPS standards, in 2020 NIST published the SP 800-208 recommendation for stateful hash-based signature schemes which are also resistant to quantum computers. As NIST themselves called out, these algorithms are not suitable for general use because their security depends on careful state management, however, they can be useful in specific contexts like firmware signing. In accordance with the above NIST recommendation we have added eXtended Merkle Signature Scheme (XMSS) to SymCrypt, and the Leighton-Micali Signature Scheme (LMS) will be added soon along with the other algorithms mentioned above.

> TLDR: Researchers in one big university survey in UK tend to prefer taking air travel (mostly juniors) than taking train or other alternative methods

Perhaps they realized one fewer booking doesn't prevent the flight from happening - or change anything except inconvenience themselves?

Even if 100% of academics committed to taking the train or heck, walking to conferences, nothing is different other than a lot of wasted time. Time that might be spent much more productively doing something else.

The hypocrisy is the only real problem. But, we (both the US and UK) tolerate celebrities and politicians that fly on private jets to events just to scold us about the climate.

isn't it such that saying something is anti-competitive doesn't necessarily mean 'in violation of antitrust laws'? it usually implies it, but I think you can be anti-competitive without breaking any rules (or laws).

>The discussion was more about if the military fumbled Afghanistan or if it was a political failure.

While I started off with the former, overall it is both.

>You haven't shown a military failure.

It has been demonstrated by Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam and others that the best way to defeat America is to engage in low tech guerilla warfare. We have lost every single one of them.

Even more embarrasing is that the Houthi are demonstrating that the age old adage of "Don't touch America's ships!" also isn't true anymore. Our Navy hasn't adequately responded to some deranged goat herders lobbing missiles into one of the world's biggest sea lanes.

>Eradicate Taliban. Complete.

Are you drunk? The Taliban is literally back in power ruling over Afghanistan with an iron fist.

>Remove terroristic sentiments. Not a goal,

Lest we forget, we waged "The War On Terror".

>Rebuild Afghanistan. Not an original goal

You can not remove hate until the people thereof can live comfortable lives, which is still not the case.

>Democratic standards. Not an original goal.

See above.

>Prevent future 9/11s. Current status is trending green.

I've lost count on the acts of terror we've seen across the west, America and otherwise.

Nobody ran this update

With that alone we know they have failed the simplest of quality control methods for a piece of software as widespread as theirs. This is even excluding that there should have been some kind of error handling to allow the computer to boot if they did push bad code.

Esper v0.1.0-alpha: a minimal PL that targets C++
It does not directly target an IR like Cranelift/LLIR or even bytecode since the goal was to make this work in an alternative way (I used to design PL type systems before so I can understand the rigor involved in building a complete language). Additionally, many _target-C/C++_ languages clutter the workspace with source & header files and other config metadata (albeit for plausible reasons). The main highlights are *deducible types* that match corresponding semantics in C++, *non-exhaustive pattern matching* and a *limited syntax grammar*. The _expression-based_ part is still incomplete but parseable.

There are many missing features (still v0.1 pre-release). So far, output source files are heavily underoptimized and error handling is basically messed up. My aim was to design a minimal PL that is similar to ML/Python and can target C++. It is also the first time I get to use a PEG parser implementation.

But the fact that she's talking fondly of the hostage takers is exactly the evidence of phenomena of the stockholm syndrome.

Could police have done things better? For sure. Were they inexperienced with the hostage situation? Yeah.

But to speak negatively of the people trying to diffuse the situation and positively of the hostage takers is what is definition of the stockholm syndrome, because clearly none of it would've happened if it wasn't for the hostage takers.

The fact that she's not actively condemning the criminals and hostage takers speaks volumes to me.
