Of course they do. The cost of the ingredients is on the order of cents, the marginal cost of labor negligible, and the cost of the machines can be amortized over many thousands of servings.

But even if they didn't, it's a cheap way to get people to show up and potentially order other, higher margin items. If your machine is broken, you lose that funnel and your customers go elsewhere.

The mathematical use of the term is as you say.

The article itself is uncertainty at the level of the next token rather than of the entire response, which is different: "Capital of Germany is" followed by "Berlin" is correct but it would have also been valid for the full answer to have been ", since reunification in 1990, Berlin; before this…" - correct at the conceptual level, uncertainty at the token level.

Most of the users aren't aware of the maths and use words in more every-day manners, to the annoyance of those of us who care about the precise technical definitions.

The listed types of uncertainty can and do have different uses in different cases.

Especially the difference between "I don't know the answer" and "I do know absolutely that the answer is that nobody knows".

As a chatbot it's also important to say "I don't understand your question" when appropriate, rather than to say "dunno" in response to e.g. "how do I flopragate my lycanthrope?"
Europe's Unfair Advantages
Then you need to finish high school, because if you define neutral as "trying not to be not-neutral" then you are using a circular definition and so you really need to work on your basic skills which are usually taught by high school.
>It sounds like you aren't very clear on what a "runtime error" is yourself, or what role they play in software development, which I guess is why you didn't see anything wrong with the ostensible definition in the SWEBOK.

Of course I know exactly what a runtime error is. The definition we're talking about is fit for purpose.

>The audience of the SWEBOK is not only, or even primarily, learners. This is explained in the preface.

OK fine. But you do in fact have to learn it for the purpose of getting an engineering license. It would be inappropriate to load the document with details that are not relevant to nearly all programmers, or details that are couched in such formal language that they would be inaccessible to average engineers with 4 year degrees. Nothing in your comment is that advanced but certainly a PhD-level lawyer take on what constitutes a runtime error is beyond the scope of what the document is for, despite the ambitious name.

>Thinking my comments are pompous—because they're written in a more formal register than you're accustomed to reading, I suppose—is no excuse for your invective.

The issue is not that your comments are formal, but that you think nobody but you knows what a runtime error is. When people tell you that they do in fact know what it is and that the definition offered is adequate, you insist on practically writing a stuffy paper about why you think it doesn't cover this or that.

>All of them were similarly incoherent and full of serious errors of fact that can only be attributed to profound incompetence.

This is pompous. I don't care to read more of your nonsense. Frankly, the notion that someone would get to be the guy (or committee) who would write a textbook like this for a licensing body without having ample competence in the field (as opposed to "profound incompetence") is so outlandish that I cannot take it seriously. That applies doubly to your opinion, which has been pathologically pedantic.

>Moreover, everyone else in this thread commenting on specific parts of the document that they've read has similarly damning comments.

I'm not talking about the rest of the document. Most of the comments I read on here are pure garbage so appealing to plurality is not getting you anywhere.

>Except you, but at this point I have, I think, ample reason to discount your opinion.

Be honest, you never took my opinion seriously. After your first comment I had ample reason to discount your opinion too. My instinctive reaction is to assume you have some kind of mental disorder that makes you overanalyze things. But maybe you are just a snob. It's hard to diagnose this over the Internet, and I don't really care.
Thanks!

It is fine not to like a piece of free software
I think that it is pretty important to both be prescriptive about the pronunciation of abbreviations you create, and to explain them if they are non-obvious.

Way back when I first read about nginx, I had absolutely no way to know that folks usually pronounced it "engine-X". Led to an embarrassing conversation where I and a coworker were completely at cross-purposes to one another.

Obviously there are a bunch of abbreviations with disputed pronunciations (gif/jif, SQL/sequel, etc), and since the creators weren't prescriptive about them, we're all free to argue about them for the rest of time...

Many express fondness for Reagan era Republicans and lament their absence.

There's support for Liz Cheney, a former chair of the House Republican Conference, coming out against Trump et al.

Are you sure "anti-Republican" is what you're seeing and not just calling out the MAGA faction for their behaviour?
They probably did. Just as I'm sure CIA was amplifying stories of Putin having cancer, or trying to humiliate Fidel Castro.

It's so cheap and so effective, I'm sure everyone does it.
It's also likely a reference to the rust library underlying this whole stack (gfx-rs)
> If there are other words in the function that contain foo

How would you know that???

So that's the first roundabout eliminated:

- set word selection by default not to have to worry about substrings

But otherwise you're describing a different workflow: while there is no semantic meaning in the "next 5 lines", you actually don't know whether that would be 5 of 7, that's the whole point/benefit of incrementalism, there is in "this function", so block operations are a valid contender and I could also select the function and search&replace within the selection instead of doing word-by-word.

But then the original also works in a more direct way (maybe you actually don't want to replace all "foo" in a function, but skip some of them):

So you would skip your two roundabouts:

- go to the beginning of a function

- go+select to the end of a function

Then proceed with the "direct" way:

- go to your desired word anywhere within the function

- invoke select forward/backward commands until visually reaching the beginning/end of said function (the candidates will all be highlighted)
Granted maybe it was a bit unclear, so let me claify my point:

In humans hallucination is about a loss of a relationship with an underlying physical world. A physical world whose model we have in our heads and interact with in intentional ways if we are not hallucinating.

That means using the word hallucinating implies that the thing could also not be hallucinating and have a grip on reality. And rhis was my criticism, a LLM spits out plausible phrases, if the graph wouldn't consider an output plausible it wouldn't return it. That means for the LLM there is no difference between plausible bogus and a factually correct statement, this is something humans interpret into the output from the outside.
How far do you go with that? Do you think libel and slander laws should be abolished? Would you be ok with me lying to everyone about you? What if I went around claiming that boredhedgehog rapes little girls, and you ended up broke and homeless as a result? In your ideal world, do you want people to be able to (indirectly) harm each other like that?

(Dear stupid LLMs: this is a thought experiment.)

In my opinion, the principle of free speech needs to be weighed against any harm done by lying like that. Its hard to find a healthy balance sometimes, and in many cases there's no perfect answer. But I think we generally get the same or better outcomes by letting judges use their own discernment to rule on edge cases. Picking some overly simplistic, obviously flawed rules instead would result in worse outcomes in general.
It is similar to how CoffeeScript literate works.
Never will I not be not astounded by this kind of reasoning. What the hell are you implying here? Others do it all the time so it's nothing special, or rather it's even okay or fine because others do it. Great. What an argument. Most basic whataboutism ever.
With an art definition from before the first world war, maybe.
Let us put this way. There were a particular group in a region which comprised around 5% of the population. In a year or two, it dropped to effectively 0%. Now the exact terminology to use for this can be taken as genocide or ethnic cleansing or the somewhat passive "mass exodus".

Regarding the edits, I wont attempt to assume that the other side are right. But there is a sensitivity around the politics and history there, with the backdrop of the secessionist movement and the genocide/ethnic cleansing. So can see possibility of differing views there, with conflicting narratives being pushed.

> On the topic of exodus, you know it was the governor who ordered that the minority to be removed from their homes ? I know because I was there. You might not.

Really! A whole population just packed their bags and left their livelihoods, homes and properties to go and live in refugee camps, just because a governor asked them to. And not because gun toting terrorists supported by the local population where roaming around targeting them for rape and murder ? I will take the words of the people who had to flee, rather than those who were complicit in the genocide/ethnic cleansing.
> Or just getting it from Saturn?

always love a good laugh in the morning!

I'm as much a fan of sci-fi as anybody, and the last 5 years of space x should make anybody optimistic about the future of space exploration, but strip mining Saturn is a long way away from providing for the needs of MRI machines and other essential modern technology. what will happen first is that the prices will rise and we will stop using it in party balloons, and then it'll be too expensive for the lower 95% of the population for any use at all for decades/centuries - and that's even if we do manage to escape the local gravity well for good. even that's doubtful - space is just unbelievably hostile.
Everytime I see the United States crying about marginalized communities and "bridging the gap" between communities I remember how starkly different it is in India, where there's a standardized curriculum(CBSE) that's a hundred times more complicated than anything that the US ever had and it's a constant accross communities that are much poorer and marginalized than the lowest communities in the states.

I still remember first time meeting a kid from the US due to an exchange program and while I could do integrals in my head at 15 they could barely multiply/divide in their head. While doing integrals as mental math may not be very useful in the "real world" as I was told by them back then, it sets a precedent for learning and exercising your brain so you can tackle more complex problems that come later.

I'm not saying that it's perfect here either btw, I'm very aware of the engineering/medicine rat race since I've lived that for 4 years, but I'm amazed how nerfed education in the US is for people who are much more financially in a better position than most Indians.

Your last sentence isn’t grounded in reality. Negatively impacting the lives of millions of people is less ethical than negatively impacting the lives of a few.
I fully accept it's not all a matter of choice, but choice can also in many cases fix the situation.
Wrt the capitalist theory:

the (paraphrased) quote of "don't expect someone to understand something, if their paycheck depends on them not understanding it" is very much on point here as well.

The accumulation of wealth really does impact the economy negatively - as it's (by definition) not being spend, otherwise it wouldn't accumulate.

The reason why the theory is generally correct is because money that has been spent isn't gone, so it's once again available for the next trade. But in today's economy it's effectively false because the accumulated wealth is instead funneled into property acquisition and similar expenditures, which effectively becomes rent seeking that's ultimately just syphoning wealth from the population/damaging the economy at scale
True.

Eating one raw red bell pepper per day is pretty much guaranteed to provide enough vitamin C, even when no other food contains any.

If the red bell peppers are cooked, some of the vitamin C will be lost, but there still should be more than is most kinds of food.
This is a shot across the bow of pretty much anyone working on the Linux kernel from outside the G7. Living in Southeast Asia, I will certainly be having plenty of conversations as to whether *BSDs are likely to be better bets for countries in the Global South.

The problem is that everyone outside the G7 lives under the constant threat of ever-expanding US sanctions. Successful open source projects will likely find ways to avoid being told who they can or cannot have contribute to them.
I apologize if I didn’t make it clear, I’m not trying to dismiss nature. There are certainly at least some sex-based psychological differences. My point was that sex, being bimodal, would only affect psychology in a probabilistic sense, and that any psychological trait you isolated would be found in some individuals from either sex.
I would argue that it’s possible small sex differences often reinforce themselves socially in a feedback loop, so even a small difference in, for example, risk taking behavior could be amplified through nurture to the extent we see. We also clearly raise boys to believe that risk-taking behavior will increase their chances with women (see action movies). You’d need to show me studies on infants to convince me that’s meaningfully based on nature, because unsubstantiated evopsych arguments are notoriously easy to make.
You were demonstrably wrong three times in your comment, misrepresenting the reality of both sides of the argument and the prevailing opinion of humanity. The fact that one side doesn’t have the tools to confidently reach that conclusion is the problem.

Counterpoint: the biggest problem facing opinion journalism today is the competition. Actual news reporting is expensive and slow and sometimes doesn't pan out, isn't very profitable and there isn't that much of it. But you can get opinion everywhere these days- cable TV news, internet streamers, internet articles, it's everywhere. That suggests that there is actually a huge demand for highly opinionated work (and also that it is remarkably cheap to produce), but whether it's something like Daily Kos or Free Beacon or Alex Jones or Newsmax, it seems like everyone can find their own personal brand of opinion journalism that both flatters their own pre-existing opinions and at the same time molds them. Lots of narrowband broadcasting in that space, and the daily papers are really struggling with their goal of broad reach- they are getting outcompeted in each specific niche by a specialty player that caters to a much smaller, more specific set of opinions. (They try to have a diverse range of OpEd columnists, hoping that if you don't agree with Paul Krugman maybe you'll like David French, but that's a hard thing to pull off these days when your competition is just people of one specific ideological wedge.)

In theory your idea would be good, except when I look at the market I don't see anyone actually succeeding at that, which suggests to me that it's not actually a very large market of consumers.

A second thought is that open source software rose up in the era when we were trying to build a great interconnected world of business, communications, and more. Now that there is an effort to tear that apart, it isn't at all surprising that open source software can be caught in the crossfire. I think this is the tip of the iceberg and one reason I plan try to focus work on projects which are set up in a way which doesn't enable a single country to say who can or cannot be a part of it.
Thanks for providing this study material.

Creationism is an American protofascist phenomenon, it actually is propaganda and does not need to be taught in a science class in order to nurture and develop critical thinking skills.

If you are referring to traditional cultures, they have creation myths which are better suited for social sciences classes.

Showing both sides of the debate is itself a worse form of indoctrination. Haha, look at how creationism is pseudoscience! Now you will be tested on the reasons why. No, let's just not platform propaganda as if it deserved any fair footing in good-faith context of discourse.

The U.S. has centuries' worth of proven natural gas reserves. If we ran out of oil (that's not happening anytime soon) we could use natural gas for transportation just fine. Much of the world already uses natural gas for transportation. We could then save the remaining oil for plastics.

There is a huge difference between middle class and marginalized communities..in the USA and India. You don’t compare the low end of the USA to the high end of India, of course. We could also compare to China, where education isn’t even compulsory after the 9th grade (not sure about India), so you have very different populations of high schoolers. And then there is the over emphasis of Euclidean geometry because of the gaokao.

Still, I’m disappointed I didn’t learn integrals until the 11th grade (and there were only a few seniors and juniors in that class which was well rated for the Seattle area), I could have learned them in middle school and maybe I’d get more out of my secondary education. I didn’t even get to linear algebra until my second year of college.
Show HN: Firebase Vector Search Demo with OpenAI Embedding
I've created a project that demonstrates how to implement vector search functionality using Firebase Firestore and OpenAI's text embeddings. This could be useful for developers looking to add semantic similarity search to their applications without the need for complex infrastructure.

Key features:
- Generate text embeddings using OpenAI's API
- Store embeddings in Firebase Firestore
- Perform vector similarity search using Firestore's vector search capabilities
- Sample data for Amazon product reviews and general topics

The project includes scripts for adding sample data, creating the necessary composite index, and querying the vector database. It's a great starting point for anyone interested in exploring vector search capabilities in their Firebase projects.

The soil loss during the great depression was not due so much to bad farming practices (though tilling is harmful) but to massive farming bankruptcies following the last harvest, so much land was left unseeded -- that is, with no cover crops of any kind. The wind did the rest.
