That's actually a bit disappointing. Someone I know recently had a QR code sent to them in the mail, which they scanned out of curiosity -- not a technical person. Turns out it was a URL to a rather malicious server and they had to scramble to secure logins and such. Encouraging people to scan QR codes as if stuff like that can't happen just makes it more likely for stuff like that to happen.

Not to say that it's strictly a bad thing, just that this particular implementation detail could be improved.
I would say notifications on replies would be the only thing I'd really want. But I think that helps avoid never-ending replies and bloated comments. At some point it's too much to go through and I move on with my life, which is probably good.

I think this is why old.reddit keeps living on. It's simply a better experience than their "modern" UX refresh. I'd say the new UI also encourages a different kind of content which changes how people use the site for the worse.

I created a “podcast episode” (???) of my personal blog (not trying to get traffic to it. It’s more of a journal) using NotebookLM. It sounded just as bland and overproduced as a “professional” podcast by NPR like “Planet Money” and “The Indicator”.

Whether that is saying how high quality NotebookLM is or how low quality NPRs podcast are is an exercise for the reader.

The only reason “Stuff you should know” is better is because of the random off topic discussions they go into and that’s not a complaint about SYSK.
The advantage of this flavor of engine is that it might make parallel position evaluation extremely efficient. Calculate 1024 leaf positions and batch them to the model, take the top 10% and explore their sub-trees either via further GPU batching or minimax eval.

NNUE already tries to distill a subtree eval into a neural net, but it’s optimized for CPU rather than GPU.

I've seen low-quality, low-effort Musk stan content before and this one joins some of the worst, low-information, low-effort that I've seen.

Elon Musk may be a hustler but he's not an honest one. He's not the type of person we should have more of.

He's successful in the same way that other privileged kids are successful: through financial structures that make it impossible to fail, especially at a unique time in history when Internet technology was exploding in a way that made it so that even the most mediocre startups were worth purchasing for hundreds of millions of dollars.

Musk's secret to success is being an early shareholder. That's it.

Let's not forget that there are numerous reports of employees at his companies saying that they work better when he's not around.

It’s hard to put it into solid feedback and examples, because it is highly subjective. But I also find the image results from Kagi lacking, while I really enjoy the text based results. Especially for more specific queries, the image search just doesn’t hold up.

I just tried generating an example. Take the query “screenshot nero burning rom windows xp” - of the first 10 images, only 6 are screenshots of the program on Kagi. On Google, it’s a solid 10/10.

Of course it’s hard to take just one example, but it reflects the general feeling I have when using the image search quite well. The results aren’t necessarily terrible, it’s just that they aren’t as relevant as Google’s.

My point is, what defines "nice" is based on one's experience. If you get people used to luxury, they will demand it and see declines if it's not met. Most of the hospital improvements are not about having pretty rooms. The pretty rooms are usually only one part of a much bigger group of changes to make things more tolerable. Those other changes are likely bigger factors in comfort.
This is accurate for endgames only. In complicated positions, there is still room for improvement - the recent game of lc0 vs stockfish where lc0 forced a draw against an impending checkmate is a good example. There is currently no way for a chess engine searching a massive game tree can see how an innocuous pawn move enables a forced stalemate 40 moves down the line.
You are misinformed.

The NLRB does not allow you to use company time and company property to do non-company things.

You can use your own break time to discuss salaries. There is nothing a company can do to prohibit that.

I'm excited by AI, but I've also tried using this specific one to generate a podcast based on one of my own blog posts and will only try again due to this product announcement rather than because I think the state of the art is already "there".

On the plus side, the speech is almost perfect; so good, that I sincerely hope the voices themselves are never fully under user control.

With regards to the actual summary of the content I gave them, I would say they are grade B: only mostly correct, they're still inventing things I didn't say and missing things I did say.

That's not to say humans don't make mistakes, I still consider this objectively impressive, that is able to reach even this level was SciFi when I was a kid — but why waste time on a grade-B podcast when the AAA-tier costs you as a consumer a 30 second advert?

Interesting, are there any podcasts in particular that you recommend? Everything I’ve heard from it just seems like the most banal, cookie cutter stereotype of a podcast with nothing but extremely surface level summarization of a given article, peppered with random cliches and fake sounding reactions “Wow! ok, so let’s hear more about that.

I’m just trying to stay as close to the facts as possible… which is that yeah, about 50 kids died daily on average during this war. Even the low estimates divided by the number of days since the start result in about 50 daily deaths.

> > You may have discussions about wages when not at work, when you are on break, and even during work if employees are permitted to have other non-work conversations. You have these rights whether or not you are represented by a union.

So which employer expressly allows you to use company time and property to do non-company things? Oh, right... none.

So you clocking into work (figuratively or literally), logging into you company computer, browsing to a non-work-related website and gabbing all day is not protected.
If work allows non-work conversations, discussing salaries can't be an exception to that. (Automattic definitely permits non-work conversations during the workday.)

> You may have discussions about wages when not at work, when you are on break, and even during work if employees are permitted to have other non-work conversations. You have these rights whether or not you are represented by a union.

If you consistently have - and consistently enforce! - a "no non-work conversations" policy, that can include salary discussions. Suddenly adding a new "no talking!" policy in response to people organizing wouldn't fly, either.

Something like enum variants?
The argument that politicians lied in the past therefore nothing is different about politicians lying today would be a lot more persuasive if people making it didn't almost always pick from the same half dozen or two examples from the past.

Some current politicians can do that many new lies in a month. If past politicians were not matching that then things are not the same today.

Also the quality of the lie should be taken into account. A lie like Saddam was building weapons of mass destruction was (a) at least consistent with past experience (he had used poison gas on the Kurds) and (b) there was no real way for the public or press to check to see if it was true.

Compare to a modern lie like Haitian immigrants are eating pets. It's not consistent with past experience and it is something the press can actually go check. (That checking was done, it was thoroughly debunked, with even people from the claimant's own party in that area saying it was false...and yet the claimant keeps on making the claim).

That's a huge qualitative difference. It used to be to lie successfully you had lie about something where the truth would stay hidden at least for a while. When the truth did eventually come out if you wanted it to not damage you too much you had to be able to explain the lie away as faulty information or something like that.

Nowadays you can just move onto a new lie.

Creating uncertainty (both for users and ecosystem developers) means he’s sabotaging it.

It doesn’t matter what he thinks he’s doing (my belief is that he’s just frustrated that someone else is profiting more than he thinks is “fair” and is using everything else as a cover, but maybe he does actually believe WPE is causing harm).

But here’s the problem I have with the whole position he’s taken. If this were actually about “Wordpress the project/community” the payment would be to the non profit not his personal for-profit company. If it was about trademarks, he should not have made the prior claims that the trademarks were not the property of his for profit when they functionally are. He would have not misrepresented the non profit as an independent entity (a fiction demonstrated clearly by the requirement to compensate his for profit).

if WPEngine is not contributing a “fair” amount to an open source project that sucks, but that’s always a risk if you want to build a for profit business on an OSS basis. But you can’t then unilaterally and retroactively change the rules later on, and act like it’s a “protecting the community” nonsense. You sure as shit don’t get to just engage in explicit extortion.[1]

Again, maybe wpengine was not contributing a fair share back to “the community”, but that’s just how OSS works, not everyone is a contributor.

[1] something I’ve found myself wondering about: my understanding is that under the law a contract signed under duress is not valid. Given the threats Matt was making, if WPE had signed it, would they be able to then go to court and say it was not enforceable due to the threat being leveled at them?

Merely filtering out websites that tend to have lots of AI images does not prevent this failure case, since (for example):

has the fake image in there, as an example of "What does a baby peacock not look like?"

As someone very interested in open source being sustainable, I'm sympathetic to the challenges, and very interested in solutions.

But, obviously, this is currently looking like a disaster of PR and community.

So, hopefully they can figure out:

* a solution to the harm done by recent mistakes, and

* how to try to prevent mistakes like that from happening again.

Well the ozempic helps you do the discipline and hard work. You don't take ozempic, eat everything, and get skinny. No, it makes it easier to diet and exercise.

I've worked for quite a few recognizable organizations and let me say this: Basing hiring decisions on past employers is just plain dumb unless you are looking for someone with extremely niche skills. Earlier in my career, some local jerk told me I hadn't worked with "prestigious" enough institutions to join his startup, despite having the exact skills he needed in a candidate. His startup failed while I, coincidentally, went to work for those "prestigious" organizations he was chasing. It's all very silly.
Do they though? You're an at-will employee. Unless there is a contract, you can be fired for any reason including cutting costs. Just like you can quit whenever.

All correct. The E-3 visa is the easiest, fastest, and cheapest U.S. visa. But it does require a sponsoring employer. The only downside relative to the H-1B is that an E-3 visa is not a dual intent visa like the H-1B so this needs to be managed if and when the E-3 visa holder is in the green card process.

It would have to say that there are to be no off-topic conversations during work of any kind, and it would have to have been demonstrably enforced. If it's a new policy that somehow is only ever invoked when someone talks about salaries, you're in for a world of hurt.

GLP-1s baseline eliminate insulin for about ~40% of people. This boosts that number to 86%.
