I didn’t say they were managed by ATC, I said the airport has slots.

ATC’s role is to help manage the reshuffling when slots are missed, because there’s still finite landing and take off capacity at very busy airports.

In both cases it’s centrally managed, rather than a free for all.

OK, that one is the original 1968 treaty they acceded to after leavin the Soviet Union. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_on_the_Non-Proliferatio....

As with any treaty, it can be broken/withdrawn from.

The treaty does not establish a right/recourse to a nuclear weapons program to NPT members in Ukraine's scenario. Ukraine just, when agreeing to it, said they'd leave if they had to. They would be non-compliant with the treaty, as North Korea was/is. They would be similarly sanctioned for it.

The Budapest Memorandom was a separate agreement, predicated on acceptance of the NPT. Similarly, nothing in it says "you can have a nuclear weapons program in scenario x".
Exactly. You can still register new domains under .su, even though the evil empire hasn't existed since well before the web became popular, and both Russia and formerly occupied and now independent nations have their own TLDs now.

> Last but not least, cost. I’ll just come out and say it: IMHO, what most vendors charge for being IdP is outrageous. Charging by MAU in an IdP? Really? We all know that the marginal cost for me to have a user in your system is essentially 0. You really gonna charge me 10 cents a month for a row in your database?

I've been looking into adding OAuth2/OIDC IdP integrations to an app I'm making. The pricing for most auth-as-a-service is indeed outrageous, and I don't need (or want) JWT. oauth4webapi [1] fits the bill here, is free and certified. Took less than an afternoon to have sign in with Google and another IdP. There's obviously more work to be done, but it's not rocket science.

Don't know if there's an equivalent for SAML. But I've certainly considered going into the auth SaaS business a few times. Seems like there's good money to be made.

It's odd. I'm an anarchist. I'm socially progressive, yes, but more often than not I find myself outnumbered in conversations by people disagreeing with me or even diametrically opposed to me. This is even more so the case online and especially not exclusively here on HN where the cultural bias in any sense that it exists at all is in favor of a vague sense of Peter Thiel style right-libertarianism with streaks of ineffective liberalism - you're more likely to find someone referring to themselves as "Georgist" than "socialist". I consistently get downvoted in political threads on HN.

However I don't have any reason to use euphemisms and I don't need to use vaguery and colorful language and appeals to fringe scientists to express my opinion. In my experience this is because my ideology is very hard to object to on moral grounds: I want you (yes, you too) to have more control over your life and for us (yes, that also means you and me) to be allowed and able to support each other better. I want you (yes, you too) to be able to be able to express yourself and have your consent or lack thereof respected. I don't want us to be suppressed by a state, a religion or an arbitrary often hereditary elite who have amassed disproportionate claims to wealth they can enforce using the physical violence of others. This even applies when I criticize Israel or Zionism - because when I do that, I say what I mean and I don't use my words as proxies for some kind of anti-semitism.

I get laughed at sometimes, I get called names sometimes, I upset people sometimes. But never do I feel the need to obfuscate my ideals except if I were literally surrounded by a violent mob seeking to exterminate the people I'm arguing for the protection of.

But any time someone hides behind euphemisms and vaguery, if you chip away at it, it's never just conservatism or some modest but insufferable reactionary views - it almost always ends up being some blend of race realism or scientific racism, belief in conspiracy theories (which always turn out to be about Jews in the end, knowingly or not), deep hatred and disgust towards trans or queer people, hatred towards women, hatred towards foreign cultures in general, hatred and disgust towards people with disabilities or marginalized people "speaking out of turn" and deeply rooted, integral, vitriolic obsession with social hierarchies and their enforcement against the "undeservering" and "degenerates".
Also, because you actually know whether or not a vehicle is going to show up.
> It's a shared point of reference to create a common culture.

Sure but if we're talking about the US why does that canon have to almost exclusively consist of European and white American authors? Modern America has a diversity of family histories so I'd expect its schools to cover a diversity of literary sources that reflect this. If it were just American authors, you might have a point, but _Les Mis_ is neither integral to American culture as it exists today nor to anything it was before. Something also tells me the kids don't need _Les Mis_ to learn to embrace social justice and oppose abuses of power.

Speaking as a (not quite but getting there) old white man: if the kids need books to understand we might be progressive and empathetic, we've failed at being progressive and empathetic and they're right to think otherwise.
But Shakespeare is not "difficult", it's just extremely dated. Shakespeare was not at all difficult at the time, most of the plays would have been considered very easily accessible. They have a ton of simple humor and even puns. Most of them are just lost in translation because language has evolved in such a way that much of it no longer works and the cultural references are lost to time.
Consider the Nobel in economics:

It was not one of the original five, but it was endowed by a bank.

SO: you tech billionaires, why don't you endow a Prize in Computer Science? That would end the dispute about whether ML is "really" physics?
Yes, exactly. It’s one of the reasons that an autoencoder’s compressed representation might not work that well for similarity. You need to explicitly push similar examples together and dissimilar examples apart, otherwise everything can get smashed close together.

The next level of understanding is asking how “similar” and “dissimilar” are chosen. As an example, should texts about the same topic be considered similar? Or maybe texts from the same user (regardless of what topic they’re talking about)?

Ah, the Castellers. Every town in Iberia seems to have a tradition extremely fit to earn a Darwin Award. Be in Pamplona against bulls, Tordesillas, Rocio's parade to the virgin being so devotional that could make a Muslim blush at the Hejira...

>Once ppl learn about localization the questions like why a programming language does not do this 'simple text operation' are just a newcomer detector. :)

I think you are purposefully misinterpreting the question. They're not asking about converting the case of any Unicode string with locale sensitivity, they're asking about converting the case of ASCII characters.

What if your game needs to talk to a server and do some string manipulation in between requests? Are you really going to architect everything so that the client doesn't need to handle any of that ever?

I doubt it'll lead to to difference in food waste reduction. People often forget different dates are not going to change that.

It's an inventory problem, at home and in the grocery store. Barcodes should include all embedded information about the food.

It's abit ridiculous, but imagine checking out at the grocery store. A barcode should be embedded with information on the receipt. A the barcode that allows you to ingest your entire shopping cart in one go. It could contain price, nutritional information, serving size, band and so on. Scan one bar coat with your phone and update your home inventory. It's all a matter of infrastructure.

That anecdote makes me wish we could make LLMs less compliant … I’m imagining some code wildly inappropriate to shoehorn a <canvas> into and GPT happily complying, instead of responding “are you nuts? How would a <canvas> be useful to this method that validates a certificate?”

Obviously it’s harmless here, but I can picture “evil genie” results when someone asks a question to an LLM entrusted with important privileges. Like if you said “Open ‘uranium containment’” meaning a file with that name, and the LLM is like “don’t want to argue with humans!” opens up the uranium containment doors

An extreme and stupid example, obviously, but you get the idea. If I am to trust an LLM it ought to be able to say “That sounds like a stupid idea. Surely we have a misunderstanding.”
It greatly depends on the laptop, even within the same manufacturer. I have lots of old Apple gear that still works but is just too old to get security updates:

- 2012 13" MBP, works great with an SSD upgrade, and the hinge is still solid, which was not the case with my 2009 15" MBP where the screen literally ripped off.

- 2013 15" retina MBP. Great laptop, still plenty fast to use today, but runs a little hot and the battery life was never amazing.

- 2015 12" retina Macbook. Survived two glasses of water spilled on it, but the speakers and bluetooth died. It was miserably slow to use anyway.

My daily driver is now a 15" M3 Macbook, which has been amazing in nearly every way. Only minor complaints is that the ram maxes out at 24GB and I wish I had 1 more USB port on the other side.
My hypothesis for why this works that it mitigates the downsides of rope

to eli5:

rope is the modern strategy used to give information to the model about how far a query and a key are apart when doing attention. It's the best strategy we have now, but has a major downside, where it makes some connections between tokens that are far apart much stronger than you would like them to be. Xpos (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.10554) is another paper by microsoft tackling issues with rope and you can see figure 1 on page 4 to get a visual interpretation of the sinusoidal attention strength (you would like it to be smooth).

I think a big reason differential transformers is working so well, especially on long sequence stuff, because when both q1 and q2 don't match a token, the rope relative strength will still have the same value and the noise will cancel out. Leaving intended matches, but at the cost of somewhat dampening the original value rope brought.

Just a hypothesis though. It would be easy to test by running this experiment against a baseline where both use alibi attention (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2108.12409) which has a different set of tradeoffs this wouldn't mitigate, but still a really interesting result.
I kind of feel like we’re rapidly approaching an end of history point on computing. The joke in the late 90s/early 00s was that your computer became obsolete on the way home from the store. My computing upgrade cycles have been getting longer and longer. Same with phones. I last upgraded my iPhone in 2022 not because I needed to (it was three years old), but because I wanted some of the newer features. What used to be a 2-year cycle like clockwork has stretched to 3 or 4 years. My laptop cycle has gone from 3 years to 5 years and that last only because the display stopped working (it’s now running headless in my music studio). The limiting factor has become less one of functionality and one of durability, and while there’s work to be done there, right now the economic factors don’t make sense. As revenue shifts to services from hardware though, I expect to see a greater emphasis on long-lasting computers until the expectation is that a computer, phone or tablet is expected to have a 10–15 year lifespan.
Yeah, I’ve found Astro to be the perfect solution without compromise. You can have a 100% static site without JS, and you can add in JS only as needed.

It doesn’t feel heavyweight like similar/older SSGs doc and it lets you write TSX-like syntax for reusable components (which I really like).

AOSP is a separate initiative from Google to release the source code of Android to the public on a regular basis. Development of Android happens almost entirely in-house and contributions/requests from the general public are treated with minimum priority. The public AOSP repo is only updated with these changes after each new release of Android is finished. Google is not forced to release the source code, aside from their changes to the Linux kernel, which are minimal anyway as Android is moving closer to mainline. They may have separate agreements with OEMs that guarantee source code access but that's of no concern to Epic Games as a user/developer on the platform and not an OEM.
just changed! thanks for the heads up
The only for work to have an impact is if it gets exposure. Publishing in journals got you an audience, but that audience is gatekept by peer review, which has its problems.

So sure, you could publish but the chance of having an impact was low. Thankfully that's changed a bit with arxiv.
They could not "just" have used SPIR-V bytecode. WebGL already had to do a bunch of work to restrict GLSL's semantics to work in the web sandbox; whatever WebGPU chose would have had the same problem.
I'd argue that in the context of overflowing the level counter, dodging the crashes (the most difficult part) is in fact the core mechanic. This doesn't take away from the skill required for playing at this level on the hacked version, but it does make the title misleading. It's not a "NES Tetris rebirth", it's a "Tetris Gym rebirth".

Thanks for commenting! I'm still learning Kotlin and I overlooked the usage of get() with vals. This will be the next syntactic sugar into the mix. I think it makes sense.

When I was designing the API, I created methods like toUSD() and toEUR(). But with 306+ circulating/tender currencies and 2000+ cryptocurrencies, I thought it could lead to a bad experience when using code completion.
Even as someone familiar with Kotlin, it's hard to decipher what this library is doing without syntax highlighting here. The author is using infix functions and custom extension functions on primitive types. Non-Kotlin-natives will scratch heads.
These "factory functions" are indeed possible, but in practice I've seen the "delayed initialization" done in most places I've worked. Where I'm currently working, a common "drive-by PR" I do on others' code as I'm reading through it is the "you forgot to add the is_this_initializated? check on this method". It's not really until someone on the team has been burned by this partially-complete-but-still-validish objects gets used before Initialize() has been called and invokes very weird behavior do people get serious about this :(

Though not common, this factory function method does not work for immovable types. You can't yoink these types out of the optional<T> that's returned and put them in a vector<T>, for instance.
They still can. There is no definition and it is at the manufacturers discretion. The law changed absolutely nothing about how best by dates are determined, just the wording.

The law literally is about the wording.
Right. I think the tl-dr of the article is: AI needs a different type of machine. And the "learnings" of millions of years of evolution is how to build it.

I do wonder if humans will hit upon a real AI solution soon. We developed flying machines in < 100 years. They don't work like birds but they do fly.
I recently did a full replacement of my lead-soldered water pipes in my 1970s home in Seattle. Despite how much people rave about how great the drinking water is in Seattle, many homes have older piping systems, which will test positive for lead in the drinking water. It was a very expensive and time-consuming project, but I am glad I did it. Unfortunately, many will not even know they are being exposed due to the clean water reports from the city.
Huh? This has nothing to do with memory failure. Imagine:

class UTF8String {
public:
static optional<UTF8String> FromBytes(const void *buffer, size_t len);

private:
UTF8String(...);
void *bytes;
size_t length;
};

UTF8String::FromBytes can fail if the input is invalid. In this particular case, it can obviously be implemented without constructing a UTF8String until it's past the point of no return. But I can imagine cases where pulling this off is awkward.
The IBM 1401 mainframe (1959) optionally supported pounds/shillings/pence (£sd) arithmetic in hardware. In those days, there were 12 pence in a shilling and 20 shillings in a pound, so arithmetic with UK money was non-trivial. (This wasn't even microcode; this was literally boards full of transistors to add, subtract, multiply, divide, and format currency values.)

Did you never take a cab pre Uber? It was a poor experience. At best it went ok. But you have to be constantly paying attention, know the local roads (when on vacation/business that didn't work, or even when it did, you are having to straight call out old boy for being a scummy scammer and taking the wrong streets), deal with the 'sorry the mileage ticker is broken' 'sorry I can't take credit cards' after saying they did at the start. Uber fixed a TON of that experience.
> It takes time and induces brain fog for at least some time after exercise

Are you serious? How is "taking time" meaning that is not free? And you can't possible use that as a side effect. Brain fog is not even a common side effect. In fact, doing exercise is actually one of the recommended ways to tackle brain fog.
I think it's good that pension funds can get returns.
Surrogate pairs aren't more complex than UTF-8's scheme for determining the number of bytes used to represent a code point. (Arguably the logic is slightly simpler.) But the important point is that UTF-16 pretends to be a constant-length encoding while actually having the surrogate-pair loophole - that's because it's a hack on top of UCS-2 (which originally worked well enough for Microsoft to get married to; but then the BMP turned out not to be enough code points). UTF-8 is clearly designed from scratch to be a multi-byte encoding (and, while the standard now makes the corresponding sequences illegal, the scheme was designed to be able to support much higher code points - up to 2^42 if we extend the logic all the way; hypothetical 6-byte sequences starting with values FC or FD would neatly map up to 2^31).
So how do you design a language that accommodates both the people who need a codebase to be stable for decades and the people who want the bleeding edge all the time, backwards compatibility be damned?

Just one example, but in the city of Chicago, over 400K homes still get their tap water through leaded lines. The city will get an exemption to the 10 year replacement requirement due to the sheer number of pipes that need replacing meaning another 40-50 years of lead pipes based on replacing 10K/year [0].

The General Public and Economists hold it in the same regard as other Nobel Prizes so appeal to 'formality' is pointless. The social recognition is the point of these awards so if it has that and is also often called the "Nobel Prize in Economics" then it's a Nobel Prize. They're literally announced and awarded together.

Nobody but a few nitpicks care about your distinction because it's not a real one. Might as well say "Money is not valuable because the material it's made up of has little intrinsic value". Well no, Money is valuable because society has decided it is.
