So essentially, you only let the server side rendering function, access the API and don’t secure it at all beyond that?

You could essentially use a static JWT token that only that nexts cloud function knows?
I don't get it.

These are impressive numbers. But while their use case is local execution to preserve privacy, the only way to use these models right now is to use their API?

In isolation, makes sense.

Wouldn't it be odd for OP to present examples that are the opposite of their claim, just to get us thinking about "well the CPU is busy?"

Curious for their input.

TY was good to me, but I think it could have been better. As the article says, each school does it differently. We did a mini company, where we created knick knacks and tried to sell them. But the entire class of 30 students was one company, which was therefore quite badly organised. I remember the teachers saying that they wouldn't do it that way in future years. There was also orienteering.

And we still did some academic classes. Maths, anyway. And I think some others.

In my school, most of the kids didn't do TY, so there was just one class in TY, which meant that the maths, in particular, was fairly basic: there weren't enough of us for streaming. And jumping back into higher level maths in Fifth Year was, frankly, a bit of a shock to the system.
And even if it isn't screwed up by active malice... don't be surprised if it's screwed up by pure incompetence. South Korea's internet is still plagued by government-approved encryption standards, which, due to the deprecation of ActiveX, sometimes require installing institution-specific cryptography software to tunnel connections through a local HTTP server so it can be encrypted outside of the web browser - https://palant.info/2023/01/02/south-koreas-online-security-...
Correct me if I'm wrong but Ozempic doesn't cause you to lose weight, instead it controls your appetite. It's not something like DNP, right?

'Normal weight loss' here refers to eating the same amount of calories without taking Ozempic. You should lose weight at the same speed as with Ozempic, because it's the calories that matter when it comes to fat loss.
My concerns are around the normalization of pointing high-resolution cameras at people around you all the time. Perhaps this specific device may have a company behind it that, at least at the moment, will resist handing the video feed with you in it to the data brokers.

Make no mistake though, the data brokers are foaming at the mouth to get access to high-resolution constantly-streaming video content that includes your face, your location, and your activities. Imagine the sorts of things that are going to be sold to whoever is buying.

"Jake Jacobs, who is married, is striking up a lengthy conversation with the young woman seated next to him. His wife might be interested in ads for divorce lawyers."

"Jeff Jones is taking a middle-of-the-week flight to San Jose, and he just finished writing an email to a recruiter from another company who is based out of that city. His company is paying the data broker for intel on employees who may be shopping around, so let's get this info to them stat."

"Jennifer Smith looks to be 3 months pregnant and is flying from Texas to Colorado. She's reading a Planned Parenthood pamphlet. The State of Texas passed a law in 2026 requiring data brokers to report on such activities, so of course we'll let them know."

As competing products come along that are cheaper than the Apple doohickies in part because of the subsidies they get from the data brokers, portable VR headsets are going to bring along a significant deterioration of our already-dismal privacy protections.

If you walk around Pompeii, the paved streets still have ruts from wagons being driven through them, and the ruts seem to be fairly close to the standard railway gauge. Certainly close enough to provoke the idea.
Germany has been reducing its carbon emissions by increasing the ratio of renewable energy, year after year despite the exit from nuclear power.

Isn't that the goal? If they can do that without nuclear power - great.

Despite France's >50% nuclear power they have a much higher ratio of "dirty" power compared to Germany.

So --- and I think this is take that pisses off both sides of this conflict --- I really don't think moral struggles or the definition of "terrorism" is at all illuminating in this conflict. Both sides deploy the term to discredit the other; in neither case does it matter.

Two important things to understand about Hezbollah are that is the dominant military power in Lebanon, and that is directly supplied, enabled, and controlled by the IRGC QF. Hezbollah is in a plausible sense a military occupier of the state of Lebanon; as an illustration of that fact, look at its full mobilization in support of the Syria/Iran axis during the Syrian Civil War (a Hezbollah conflict that went largely unreported in the west, but caused integer multiples more civilian casualties than anything we've seen reported in the last 12 months).

This is an open conflict between two military peers. Over the last year, Hezbollah has fired on average dozens of rockets every day, at a cadence sufficient to evacuate much of Northern Israel to hotel rooms and temporary housing. My point isn't that you should respect Hezbollah less for doing so, or that it is therefore a terrorist organization. Rather: Hezbollah is a world-tier military force (by many accounts the most effective in the Syrian wars) that has opened a front on a neighboring country.

These are two warring armies. "Deserve", as William Munny would say, has nothing to do with it. If it helps, Israel has been coasting on arguments that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization for years, and I'm no more interested in those arguments.
Tatakae!
Ok firstly how do you do the pre/ styling - been here years not worked that one out.

Not answering you at first, I suggest you chnage this to be 1000x-

>>> Imagine that I am born with $100,000,000 in stock

That’s more the level “wealth tax” campaigns are about.

Because wealth belongs eventually to all human society. Getting off this rock and surviving for another thousand years as a species is something 100% of humanity does or 0%

And wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, is wealth that is not put to optimal use. Not educating the pooorest of the planet, not stopping disease and providing nutrition to the growing.

This is not about borrowing and lending money. This is how do we circulate the actual wealth, the doctors and nurses and engineers and road sweepers, the excess energy and the excess knowledge of 8 billion apes.

Musk is right we need to get off the planet, but is wrong if that’s something just a few of us can do. Whitey went to the moon, but he did not stay. Fix down here, else we won’t make it up there.
A need for a lot of travel, not all travel.

You mention hiking several times, I assume it is something you enjoy. Now, imagine, instead of regularly having to travel to Yosemite from your local suburban area, you instead go live in Yosemite and use your headset to do the things you did in your suburban area. More hiking, less time spent in transport.

> extremely large functions
> quadratic behavior

*High five*

I fixed several of these during my time as a compiler engineer too.

It's true what they say, quadratic is the worst possible time complexity. Fast enough to work on all your test cases, slow enough to explode in prod.
You're absolutely right IMO, given what I heard when launching on-device speech recognition on Pixel, and after leaving Google, what I see from ex. Apple Neural Engine vs. CPU when running ONNX stuff.

I'm a bit suspicious of the article's specific conclusion, because it is Qualcomm's ONNX, and it be out of date. Also, Android loved talking shit about Qualcomm software engineering.

That being said, its directionally correct, insomuch as consumer hardware AI acceleration claims are near-universally BS unless you're A) writing 1P software B) someone in the 1P really wants you to take advantage.
What do you say to observers who would see this analysis as a parallel to the huawei or Tiktok western argument, meaning, "don't let them spy on you, let us spy on you instead!!!"
Do you guys have a Discord by chance? I have a close friend who is insanely passionate about archiving, he has a personal instance of archivebox, and is working on a Video Downloading project as well. He has used it almost everyday and archived thousands of news articles over years. He's aware of a lot of the nuances.
I wouldn't bother. It is super obvious.

Most schools in California as well as nationally are not specialized or gatekept via entrance exams like Lowell was.

Right, but 'school' is not the relevant unit. 'Student' is the relevant unit.

Imagine the top 10% of middle school students in SF go to Lowell. Half of those will be in the bottom half of the graduating class.

So 5% of students in SF (half of the best 10%) might not get into their UC of choice, just because they managed to get into Lowell.

That's a lot of students' futures we're talking about. Why penalize half of the best students in SF?

That's very standard in ToS, and I would think a no-brainer. How could one use a site without accepting its terms of service? Notably Hacker News has almost that exact same language with a 14-day notice period. YouTube, Twitter, Wordpress.com, etc. all have similar language. What is your problem with it?
Awesome! Composable tools rule.
To put into perspective how awful this problem actually is, I signed up for planet fitness 100% online.

I went to the gym and well, it sucked. So then I want to cancel.
Okay I go to the front desk. Can I cancel? No. They tell me to read the website.
Okay I go to the website. It says "well... this varies gym to gym".
Okay I call my gym "... yeah we can't cancel, you have to send a formal letter to HQ"

A letter? Really?
As a matter of coincidence, my card gets lost, stolen, and used. So I cancel.
Finally, I think, it's over.

No, I still get charges on my bank account from planet fitness. So I wrote a letter, mailed it, and then like 6 weeks later (so... another payment later) it's cancelled.

Keep in mind I signed up online, on my iPhone.
A little bit of both, and they are related. Trains are a tough sell because they aren't competitive for most travel. Even at 300kph, they're only good for local-ish travel (by that, I mean up to perhaps as much as 1000km). Would be great for Portland to Seattle, or Portland to LA, but if you're going out of region (which is extremely common), an airplane will be way faster and almost certainly cheaper too.

I'd love a moderately fast train, say 200kph, between cities like Portland and Seattle. That's a great use case.

But as a nationwide network, there won't ever be a suitable rail alternative, unless it gets subsidized. Amtrak is already stupidly expensive for what you get.
Tuned out, plays something like fruit ninja and makes a hard cut to the right … in your face
IP bans are fundementally flawed since you can't assume a static IP in the vast majority of cases anymore, if you rely on an IP blocklist then it's inevitable that you will end up hurting the experience of small amount of unlucky but innocent players. I suppose this might be more of an issue on ipv4 than it could be on ipv6, but really you should always expire IP bans to avoid issues like these, or you want to combine another data point with the IP such as a hardware ID (or a hash of a combination of hardware IDs). Cheaters do know this so even if we could assign everyone a static ipv6 they would likely just disable ipv6 support on their NIC and rely on their ipv4 exit ip.

Edit: If you don't think this is an issue I urge you to Google "pokemon go belgium ip ban" for a fun rabbit hole.
> Google/meta are probably classified as morally neutral but in reality gray areas

I don't think so. I see tons of people with moral objections to Meta specifically.
This headline is seriously misleading because the author did not test AMD or Intel NPUs. If Qualcomm is slow don't say all AI PCs are not good.
OP’s benchmark doesn’t use the return value from the function being benchmarked. When C++ compilers are asked to optimize such code, they often optimize away the whole function.

Pretty sure your 17.7 nanoseconds result had the whole function optimized away. Workarounds are tricky and compiler-specific.
Something that is not clear to me about passkeys and makes me uneasy to start using them:

Are passkeys replacing passwords, 2FA, or both?

What if I created a passkey on some device, lost that device, and my passkeys aren't cloud-backed-up? Would I be able to recover my account, or it's doomed? Or does it depend on how a given website implemented it?
The Cillian Murphy reference seems off. He might have been too old when it was mandated in 1994, even though it was available earlier. Anyone know for sure?

> I don't really feel like I care a whole lot between good non-end-to-end encryption and bad non-end-to-end encryption

Bad non-end-to-end encryption is exactly that: "anyone can read your chats". That's not what the research found, it's just the implication of your original statement.
> How are dozens of nuclear power plants a single point of failure?

https://www.wired.com/story/nuclear-power-plants-struggling-...

"Amidst a slow-burning heat wave that has killed hundreds and sparked intense wildfires across Western Europe, and combined with already low water levels due to drought, the Rhône’s water has gotten too hot for the job. It’s no longer possible to cool reactors without expelling water downstream that’s so hot as to extinguish aquatic life. So a few weeks ago, Électricité de France (EDF) began powering down some reactors along the Rhône and a second major river in the south, the Garonne. That’s by now a familiar story: Similar shutdowns due to drought and heat occurred in 2018 and 2019. This summer’s cuts, combined with malfunctions and maintenance on other reactors, have helped reduce France’s nuclear power output by nearly 50 percent."

France is about the best existing case for nuclear, incidentally.
Nope, most tech companies use some form of Leetcode interview, whether they call it that or not.

As I get older, a gin and tonic (or two) is what makes air travel more relaxing.
I watched two such mainframe to “modern” architecture transitions recently, one at a telco and one at a medical insurance company. Both replaced what were billing and ERP systems. Both used Java on Linux virtual machines using an n-tier service oriented architecture. Both had a mix of batch and interactive modules.

Both suffered from the same issue, which is actually very common but nobody seems to know: power efficiency throttling of CPU speeds.

The irony was that the new compute platform had such a huge capacity compared to the old mainframe (20x or more) that the CPUs were only about 1% utilised. The default setting on all such servers is to turn cores off or put them into low-power modes as slow as 400 MHz. This murders performance and especially slows down the network because of the added latency of cores having to wake up from deep sleep when a packet arrives.

It was one of those situations where running a busy-loop script on each server would speed up the application because it keeps everything “awake”.

The telco doubled their capacity as an attempt to fix the issues but this took them to 0.5% utilisation and things got worse.

The health insurer also overcomplicated their network, building a ~100 server cluster as if it was the public cloud. They had nested VLANs, address translation, software defined networking, firewalls between everything, etc… Latency was predictably atrocious and the whole thing ran like it was in slow motion. They too had the CPU throttling issue until I told them about it but the network was so bad it didn’t fix the overall issue.
Wait sorry back up a bit here. I can buy a laptop that has a daughter FPGA in it? Does it have GPIO??? Are we seriously building hardware worth buying again in 2024? Do you have a link?
Exactly. I see a lot of people attributing it to a Ancient Chinese Saying, but no verification. At least I know for sure it was said on 4chan.
I use Foundry for work. It makes data ingestion, cleaning, quality check and automation easy. After all the data is ingested, running analysis/RAG on them become extremely easy.

Basically, it's end-to-end data engineering and analytics. And the more a company uses/invests into the platform, the more benefit and locked-in they are.
Thank you for your kind wishes, see you at the launch!
The Gap Year is a year-long deferral from university or college. Sometimes, it occurs directly after finishing High School, and other times, it occurs in the middle of your course.

If the passkey is all you have, then you're doomed (at least to the extent of whatever alternative recovery procedures the vendor is making available to you). That's why it's pretty universal to provide backup codes to put in your safe when setting up a passkey.
But then you have a paid "featured" tier, along with a leaderboard showing the most upvoted ones. How is this different from ProductHunt in the end? Isn't it still pay to win?
That’s rose coloured. Maybe people were more intelligent, but even 10 years ago people would absolutely flame each other in GitHub issues on public projects.
Yep. Btw the threat model for me is this:

- against random 3rd party, even WeChat is ok

- against random black hats, most of chat software is ok, maybe even WeChat

- against gov agencies, nothing is going to protect you

When I am in China, i happily use WeChat including the gazillion of services available through it. Buying metro pass, ordering food, getting a battery pack and so on.

Btw no country could replicate this outside of China, which is an interesting phenomenon. We have endless ads including actual scams and malware distributed by Google Ads yet I cannot buy train tickets in the EU through a single app and order food as well, let alone getting a cab. It would be great though.

Hmm, thanks!

I learned something today,
When's the last time the North Sea had no wind for two weeks?
Since you asked, I think I'll explain myself.

I did look for sources. I estimate it would've taken about 15 minutes to collect the sources and link them. Basically if you do the search yourself, you'll see the first page or so of links is very academic ones. So I would need to scroll past all those, and read the abstract to find one that corroborated my argument.

This is not, as they say, a paid position: it's fair to say "that takes to long" and choose not to do this. Which is what I did here.

Now I'm not sure what the correct thing to do here was, in retrospect. I can see that an LLM is not a popular choice, though I thought it was a defensible compromise between "no source" and "spending too long finding actual sources."

I could've handwaved and said "academics say" without sourcing (probably the best choice).

I won't cite an LLM next time. I'll probably just frankly say "you can look it up, I won't do that because it takes too long, but..." I believe that's a fair compromise between "saying nothing" and "spending 15-20 minutes on a thankless research task."

The one thing I'm unwilling to do here is to just spend 15-20 minutes on this, however. I'd rather be downvoted, or simply say nothing.
If I saw someone wearing one of these on a flight, I’d think they were a complete dickhead.
All of this happened because the company didn't want to open source the code, they wanted to openwash it and get free labor from the open source community. If another company wants to do the same and they decide not to because of this, nothing of value is lost.
It's assumed that the odds of dying at a given age are frozen. So if someone is currently 15, their odds of making it to 100 are their odds of surviving 16 times their odds of surviving 17 times their odds of surviving 18, and so forth. If you're in the US, as of 2021, for all ages over 11 your life expectancy decreases by less than 1 year per year, and if you've attained the ripe old age of 119, your life expectancy is only one month shorter than that of someone 2 years younger than you.

Many demographic trends like fertility rate are treated the same way. While it is not a very accurate prediction for how long a current young person will actually live, it's a consistent metric that doesn't rely on a particular model of future events. It's good for discussions like this where we're more interested in how the value is changing than the actual value itself.
Let me guess, the technology doesn’t and work despite promises to the contrary it never will.

It will come to nothing because the core claim will never work with the technological foundation in use. how close is FSD to being actually literally full self driving? (hint, It’s not and will not ever be)
