"Accident" implies a lack of blame. The vast majority of vehicle "accidents" are not.

If you're speeding to pass someone and hit an oncoming car, that's not an accident.

If you're impatient and try to squeeze by a bicycle and hit them, that's not an accident.

If you're texting on your phone and rear-end the car in front of you, that's not an accident, it was a conscious decision.

If your transmission seizes or your wheel fails off so you fly off the road into something (and you haven't been ignoring maintenance on your rust bucket for so long that you should expect this), that's probably an accident. But that's an infinitesimal fraction of vehicle incidents.
> JK Rowling could have lived out the rest of her life as the world's most beloved billionaire, with generations of adoring fans pouring out love at every opportunity. All she'd have to do is avoid making wildly controversial statements on the most divisive cultural issues imaginable.

Massive respect to JKR for standing up for the rights of women and girls, even if it is controversial.

Yes, she could have kept quiet and said nothing, but there are things much more important than being universally adored, and it's to JKR's credit that she values speaking out for what's right, way above basking in the adulation of celebrity.

There is no theft, there are only letters of marque to pillage people for using memes and memeplexes you claimed first, who didn't pay you for your claim, to buy immunity from you so they can use claimed meme.

Theft requires the loss of benefit of the stolen object to the victim. Copy & paste just blows over the house of cards that is the system which threatens people with cages and poverty if they use the claimed meme and not pay.

The author seems to be conflating habits with scheduled tasks. The point of a habit is that it’s more or less automatic — reserving your willpower to handle more unique and emergent tasks as they come. It’s been awhile since I read this book but I can’t imagine that that basic point was not conveyed.

Public health insurance in other countries are not better.

For instance, I pay 10% of my income for it and in some cases queues just to start treatment are for few years. And it does not cover teeth, implants, vaccines.

If case is urgent, like a cancer, it can take 6+ month to actually start treatment due to all paperwork and queues everywhere.
We would see the heavy intermixture in one of the groups in that case. In addition, if one group was in homo sapiens captivity, then it is overwhelmingly likely that the other group would be found during those 50 thousand years (considering our propensity for migration).
JMC is indeed a valuable tool, though what you see in any java profiler is to be taken with a grain of salt. The string parsing and hash lookups are present in most of the implementations, yet some of them are up to 10 times faster than the DataInputStream + BufferedInputStream code.

It doesn't seem like it can be true that 90% of the time is spent in string parsing and hash lookups if the same operation takes 10% of the time when reading from a filechannel and bytebuffer.
I had the fortune of taking Erdmann's Python class at the University of Arizona 15 years ago --- a Python/Pylab/data engineering class aimed at materials science engineering students.

He was already getting into this kind of art spectroscopy at the time, and the things he'd showed us at the time that they'd already discovered were wild. IIRC, they had laid out many Rembrandts on the same large "scroll" of canvas, identified where they were painted relative to one another on the scroll, and even identified some paintings of unclear authorship by thing them to that same scroll.

It was not at all surprising to see him move to Amsterdam and keep working with the Rijksmuseum. I smile every time I see this work pop up.

Matplotlib works well for static plots. Altair and others freeze at around 4000 data points, which is crazy. Streamlit + matplotlib is impossible to maintain but is quick to get up and running.
We’ve been doing exactly this by doubling-down on VLMs (https://vlm.run)

- VLMs are way better at handling layout and context where OCR systems fail miserably

- VLMs read documents like humans do, which makes dealing with special layouts like bullets, tables, charts, footnotes much more tractable with a singular approach rather than have to special case a whole bunch of OCR + post-processing

- VLMs are definitely more expensive, but can be specialized and distilled for accurate and cost effective inference

In general, I think vision + LLMs can be trained to explicitly to “extract” information and avoid reasoning/hallucinating about the text. The reasoning can be another module altogether.
This looks incredibly well-designed and documented, can't wait to watch some speed runs!
The idea that it's an abstraction is 100% accurate. That physics is a discrete set of fields with field rules and interaction rules, and what we observe is a scaffold on top of that. It's like okay, let's say the math is right and we have a set of fields, what are they and where are they from, how do we manipulate them. Then the physicists, often driven by ego, is want for an explanation and points to vibrating strings and such, and finally they knock on the door of the empiric physicist and say "can you do an experiment to show that I'm right" "sure, build a machine the size of the universe and I could test that" and that's the state of physics the last gorillion years

Questions to Consider Before a Collaboration
> I wonder if someone studied how unique writing style is.

Since I teach I can tell you that I can usually tell who wrote something by their language and it even works with code. There's also the Enron dataset, which is a common dataset for first time ML students where you do exactly this task.

Your language is in fact a fingerprint. And like you suggest, topics too. Much of our freedom of anonymity comes from the fact that it is hard or not worth it to dox people.

I do agree that verification is a different issue though. I'm not sure keys will solve it because you're not going to sign anything that is scandalous, so it might even give evidence for those that want to falsely claim foul play. And how do you sign a leak?

The problem with signing is that it seems to work for the cases we don't care about and do nothing for the ones we do. That is unless we sign literally everything, including our voice, but then you kill anonymity (why I connected it) and you could then probably clone that too.

As someone who lusted after music hardware my entire youth (and has a broken Roland XP80 and Akai S01 and hundreds of useless floppies and a working DX7 and TX81z sitting behind me) I have to agree. Especially for hardware that is 100% in the digital domain or where you will be doing a ton of manual manipulation, just use a laptop.

Get a copy of RX950 (https://www.inphonik.com/products/rx950-classic-ad-da-conver...) and Decimort 2 (https://d16.pl/decimort2) or whatever the newest equivalent is to fill you Akai sampler sound needs. If you really want to twist knobs, I have a Novation 49SLMkIII (https://us.novationmusic.com/sl) with 8 encoders mapped to all kinds of things in my default Ableton template. It's so friggen amazing (parts of the living in the future are really cool). I only wish there was a place for music collaboration in this future reality (and not just 'I can't be bothered to read the manual/learn music technique be my interactive manual' or horrible toxic negativity (looking at you KVR and GS)).

Edit: I prefer other filters than rx950 that have more flexibility only recommending it if you need a specific Akai replacement. BTW it's sometimes the included freebie at PluginBoutique. Jason Herd uses it to good use in this walkthrough https://faderpro.com/programs/making-minimal-tech-garage.

The root cause here is that unlike native OS controls, most native web controls are primitive as heck.

So companies that don't want to look like Craigslist end up either using an off-the-shelf UI controls library (not a bad decision, in my opinion), or building their own.

Along with the second option, a new set of disciplines is emerging: the design system designer and engineer. Since companies have grown so accustomed to building their own bespoke design language (instead of using the one the OS ships with), it's doubtful that a well-designed set of modern, native web controls (that ship with browsers) would be able to compete with the notion of "having a bespoke design system".

Also, white-label libraries (like Radix UI) are increasingly appearing that handle all the implementation details and leave the appearance to be defined.

Ownership as a whole is a social/legal construct, no? [1] You only "own" something insofar as you control it. Societies build frameworks that aid people in controlling things based on who they think deserves control of those things. This clearly can vary widely between societies; the USA used to think owning people was perfectly OK and some places still do. Nobody has absolute control over (almost?) anything, and I think if a society provides many legal protections to something like a voice (who can profit off of it, who goes to jail if they try to copy it), it can be "owned" to as meaningful an extent as anything else.

They should still be blamed by misrepresenting the lack of supply in their network. But certainly, medical professions probably need reform to alleviate supply, then of course you get into knock-on effects ranging from malpractice suits/tort reform to medical school tuitions.

Private insurance has all the wrong incentives, and IMO profit should never be linked to the health of a human for that reason.

> you can still have multiple

This can’t be for real. The only reason you pay for insurance is in case something happens. It has no value outside of that. That’s why it’s called insurance. And medical insurance in the US is very expensive, so much that a large part of the population can’t afford it. If you don’t get care when you need it, it’s worse than no insurance - now there’s less money left to pay out of pocket to the only places that will take you on in time. The solution to being scammed is not to sign up for another scam.
Nuclear power is "generally accepted" as non-renewable amongst people opposed to nuclear power. Since uranium fuel is not going to run out on any reasonable time scale (and thorium will last even longer), it is "renewable" by any practical standard.

It makes no sense to worry about how "renewable" or "sustainable" some technology is if the time when it would start to matter is long after the technology has likely been replaced by something else anyway. That is, it makes no sense unless you're trying to score some political point...

> You are reading into it you're own internal monologue, and thinking the article stated more than it did.

No, I'm reading critically. Just because an article does not readily offer up a definition, it does not mean it isn't working with one.

However, I'll try to be intellectually charitable, here, and say it's plausible a reader could feel the article unhelpfully conflates many definitions of "artisan". Unfortunately, all such definitions don't make much sense in the context of programming. What's wrong is not the concluding sentiment of "enjoy the process, ... , improve yourself, learn new things", it's that "artisan", even in its many definitions, doesn't touch upon those noble sentiments. Attorneys and programmers simply aren't artisans, even if they enjoy their process, and improving themselves, and learning new things, and your insistence to the contrary is self-aggrandizement.

That isn't to say I would limit "artisanal" to the physical crafts. I might extend it to any endeavor where the process is part of our use of the product. Like -- I may know this or that writer drinks 20 year old Scotch, and smokes only three cigars a day, while he types at exactly 45 words per minute on his decades old Smith Corona. I can understand being romantically engaged by that process.

However, while this kind of process might be important to our enjoyment of that literature, is is almost entirely unimportant to our use of software, because the artifact is still what is most important, by a mile. I couldn't care less whether a game designer copied a method from Boost or wrote it from scratch him/herself, just as, I couldn't care less whether my attorney saw the face of God after smelling the dust mites in the Westlaw Reporters at the law library. The romance of the "artisan" is almost entirely incoherent in this context.

It's why "I am an Artisanal Attorney (because I make my own paper and write briefs with a quill)" is so funny. Do me a favor and try to write your own. "I am an Artisanal Programmer (because I do all my Objective C programming on a NeXTcube)..."
it doesn't say that. too few individual remains in too few locations have been found to understand whether the groups had been living near each other for 50,000 years or what their social structures were at all. It would make sense for a species near extinction to have small population clusters migrating and not bumping into each other. They do contrast this with what is known of early modern human genomes in the same areas which do appear to be more mixed, but why wouldn't examples of a newly successful expanding population appear different from remnants of an old population dying out?

so what they found is not at odds with what you are suggesting, but there are other explanations, and not much data

Nope.

In NVIDIA parlance, a thread is the body of a "parallel for" structure, i.e. the sequence of operations that are executed for an array element, which are executed by one SIMD lane of a GPU.

A "warp" is a set of "threads", normally of 32 "threads" for the NVIDIA GPUs, the number of "threads" in a "warp" being the number of SIMD lanes of the execution units.

CUDA uses what Hoare (1978) has named "array of processes" and which in many programming languages is named "parallel for" or "parallel do".

This looks like a "for" loop, but its body is not executed sequentially in a loop, but the execution is performed concurrently for all elements of the array.

A modern CPU or GPU consists of many cores, each cores can execute multiple threads and each thread can execute SIMD instructions that perform an operation for multiple array elements, on distinct SIMD lanes.

When a parallel for is launched in execution, the array elements are distributed over all existing cores, threads and SIMD lanes. In the case of NVIDIA, the distribution is handled by the CUDA driver, so it is transparent for the programmer, who does not have to know the structure of the GPU.

The use by NVIDIA of the word "thread" would have corresponded with the reality if the GPU would not have used SIMD execution units. Real GPUs use SIMD instructions that process a number of array elements typically between 16 and 64. NVIDIA's "warp" is the real thread executed by the GPU, which processes multiple array elements, while NVIDIA's "thread" is what would have been executed by a thread of a fictitious GPU that does not use SIMD, so it would process only one array element per thread.

> Once people there have established their friend groups they’re not looking to add any more to the group as they worry too many new friends will diminish their own place in their friend group.

That's such a cynical interpretation of a totally reasonable problem of social dynamics.

A friendship of 2 has different dynamics than 3 than 4, etc. And all of them are different depending on the composition of intraverts/extraverts.

FWIW, the extravert friend groups I know are highly inclusive and are always eager to add new members. For obvious reasons.

And the opposite for introverts who are much more careful and cautious (I am one) because they know how fragile good vibes can be and how new strangers are exhausting and can affect them.

IMO, the Pacific Northwest attracts introverts because the main activities are fairly individualistic (hiking, skiing) and the social aspects happen before/after which you can easily skip. Not so in something like NYC where everything is orientated around other people.

Then extraverts move to the PNW for the hot tech job markets (Seattle/Vancouver) and are annoyed that everyone is so "cold".
