~15 years ago I had a sequence of 4 scam dentists in a row before deciding never to do that again. Based on the other comments it appears that I was not the only one. The first visit felt like a scam so I got a second opinion which found a new completely different set of problems, so I got a third opinion and a fourth with absolutely no consistency and each recommending a completely different set of expensive treatments and all of them feeling like scams.

I think I was luckly that I did at one point go to a good dentist who told me things like teeth can naturally have dimples which are generally nothing to worry about - so I was suspicious when a later dentist told me I really had to worry about them. The initial good dentist did recommend a sand blasting and sealant of the groves in molars as a long term preventative procedure. As he explained it fluoride hardens teeth and changes the wear patters causing these issues where pockets of bacteria are hard to get to and can later cause cavities. He didn't sell it as some sort of necessity but as something that he thought was generally a good idea to do and his explanation did convince me. It was a simple, inexpensive and painless procedure which I believe was effective and I think should be a widespread default. I don't know who I'd trust to do the science on that though.

Very interesting move. Adobe must be trembling.

Lots of people have already left Premiere and AE for Resolve. If Apple offers Photoshop and Illustrator alternatives it will remove the need to pay for the Adobe subscription for a lot of Mac users (that will probably be the case for me).
Especially given a few years of heated political discussions around the possibility or not of the practice, concerning precisely the federal level.
Im not interested in steel-manning the position that cultural acceptance of trash translates to bad code. I am defending the fact that humans do in fact have cultures, and those cultures have real world impacts. You would not see scenes like that in Japan or Singapore, or at least much more rarely.
I agree with you and upvoted your comment as see it's down voted. It's a very valid point that would be their default position regardless of moral obligations but it does read this is a design flaw related to grandiosity from the article.
That's not a scam, that's grievous bodily harm.

At the same time, they don't really have anything like this in their portfolio in terms of Keynote/Pages/Numbers.

They have some photo touch up ability in the Photo App, and maybe in preview. But nothing as first class as what Pixelmator is.

There's a possibility for a new Paint app.
That's only worth mentioning because the PHP stdlib is mostly written in C. The general proposition (for any language) is trivially true since 93% of ink blobs are valid Perl programs.

When I first came to Ithaca I went to the dentist who came first in the phone book and found he wanted to do too much of everything including take pano X rays even though I had no problems.

It was bad enough I didn't go to a dentist for another two years and when I did I got a recommendation from the department secretary. I'm still seeing that dentist although I don't actually see the dentist (as opposed to the hygienist) unless I've actually got a problem.
>[manufacturer] deprived me of a choice in this case

This seems to be the industry trend with these remotely managed machines, like Apple or Windows PCs. The update mechanism, for better or worse, takes power from the user and assigns it back to the manufacturer / service provider. It's something that the software world would have considered a Trojan horse some 20 years ago, an extension of control to the end users machine, for someone other than the end user themselves.

I'm not sure where I'm going with this. What's for sure is that the IT zeitgeist really changed over the decades.

I’m sure you can point to many things Rider is better at, but I’ve found enough sharp edges (including, annoyingly, it not being able to infer types that Roslyn can) that it’s not a sell for me. It’s also much faster and supports NCrunch.
Sir, you are not a real gamer(tm) either. Use a puny alternative OS and lose 3 fps, Valve support or not? Unacceptable!

The argument isn't that there is something more than next token prediction happening.

The argument is that next token prediction does not imply an upper bound on intelligence, because an improved next token prediction will pull increasingly more of the world that is described in the training data into itself.
None of those are voting. If someone cast a ballot who was not allowed to, then how do you know it's happened if they weren't caught?

What is this assertion being based on other then vibes?
I don't think I've ever heard anyone use the infinite monkey example outside of theoretical mathematics; I'm sure someone has, but when I've heard it, it was to describe regular distribution of random.

I think it's a very bizarre thing for these mathematicians to act like they discovered something that I don't think anyone really disputed.

I also use the OISD (https://oisd.nl) blocklist for DNS level blocking with NextDNS. OISD prioritizes functionality over blocking, which is exactly the way I like it for DNS level blocking. Never had to manually whitelist anything.

Literally yes top single core performance. (And incidentally also efficiency)
The reporting on this paper is crazy. In the highlights section of the paper’s page on the journal’s website it says “The long-established result of the Infinite Monkeys Theorem is correct, but misleading.” but the Guardian article says “Australian mathematicians call into question the ‘infinite monkey theorem’ in new research on old adage”, which I read as contradictory to what’s in the paper.

Look at all the programming language implementations that provide big integers by calling out to GMP. Why would it be "cheating" when available to all and done openly? Libraries matter.

Just name-calling.
I am a dentist. The article and some of the comments here make me sad. sorry for the bad apples in my profession. I am sure most of the dentists are honest. If you have questions about procedures you don't understand, you can ask me.

Your first quote leaves off the important bit: against the headwinds of Google culture. I agree, the first half of the sentence is a common scenario among CEOs, it's the 2nd bit that makes it especially challenging.

I disagree that it was "fine" because the people who were respected and held up as prime examples of Googlers – for decades – almost always had nothing to do with the ads business. This sends a signal to the rest that the ads business doesn't really matter, it's not the important work, it's akin to the janitorial work that has to happen so the rest of us can work here. If you do that long enough you end up with people optimizing towards things that aren't aligned with the needs of the business. It was on autopilot, relatively, compared to other areas.
Yes it does. Internally Google uses C++20 (https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#C++_Versio...) and the model picks the style from training, I suppose.

Hello, I'm an experienced fullstack software engineer and architect with over 13 years of experience. I've worked at a variety of companies mostly in the Microsoft C#, .NET and Azure space building cloud native web applications.

I've spent time on my own learning different technologies such as Python, Node, Golang and Flutter. As well as how to host them on the other cloud providers (AWS and GCP). So I'm confident I can pick up and run with whatever your tech stack may be!
Regardless, it's not suitable for those who do need to grasp the entirety...
Also, is the impact e.g. on crime of "visa overstays", that is, from people who were vetted, registered, and got a visa, the same as that of randos just passing the border with zero oversight?

Even if the first category is higher in numbers (and assuming there are correct numbers for the latter), the crime stats between the two are probably quite different. Especially since "visa overstays" could also count some people waiting for a delayed renewal, or coming in for 6 months and staying 5 or whatever.

SEEKING WORK | Ontario, Canada | Remote
I'm an experienced Julia developer with a enthusiasm for solving performance and optimization challenges.

I can help if you're looking for Julia expertise to help with any of the following:

- Investigating long compilation or start-up times
- Profiling and identifying performance bottlenecks
- Low-level performance optimization for your simulation code
- Assessing different parallelization or threading strategies
- Increasing testing coverage to help with maintainability and robustness
- Cleaning up prototype code to prepare for production or publishing as a package
- Contribute to a dependency upstream to ease a pain point in your use case

I might also be able to help if you are:
- Rewriting or redesigning from R/MATLAB to Julia/Python/Rust.
- Having performance problems with your Python, Rust, MATLAB, or C code.
- Want to investigate if leveraging GPU compute (CUDA) could be useful for your computations.
I've worked across a wide range of the Julia ecosystem, from high-level tasks such as extracting data from non-compliant csv, and writing custom Plots.jl recipes, to low-level work such as extending the mul! matrix multiplication interface with LAPACK, and investigating type-instabilities and inference problems using SnoopCompile and Cthulhu.
Think I might be able to help? Shoot me an email and let's find out.

> Adobe must be trembling.

Adobe is probably popping open a champagne for every cross-platform Creative Cloud competitor that gets mothballed with Apple's capital. If Microsoft acquired Affinity next, the Adobe offices would look like a disco ball for a week.
> Yes, but the theorem is meant to explain what can happen in the universe over long time scales.

I never understood it that way. I always interpreted it as a fun way to explain the mathematical truth that no matter how low a probability is, as long as it is technically above 0, the event it describes WILL eventually occur given enough time/trials/etc.

I can't see anybody ever interpreting it as a statement about the real, actual, universe. Just like I don't think anybody truly believes that flipping a real coin with non-identical sides (such as every currency coin I've ever used) must have EXACTLY 50% probability of landing on either side. Surely people can separate the mathematical ideal/concept from constraints of physical reality.
Oh, but these are idealized monkeys that act like perfect random generators. Almost, but not quite, unlike spherical cows.
Except in this case the phone was the dress.

I didn't know they even had a satellite provider.
Aperture could have been amazing, but it was slow, buggy and suffered from a catastrophic data loss that several of my Photojournalism classmates fell victim to - just as Lightroom appeared.

FCP was outstanding in its time, but was neglected.

I went all in on Logic, however, and that has proved a great buy, no subscription model, fantastic extras and works super well. If they can rebuild a enthusiast-targeted set of apps again, but stick with it, the future looks bright.

I cannot imagine Apple ever competing with Capture One or most of the other circle of RAW image processors, which have some rather niche features, but they might be able to take on Lightroom.
Fairly confident that that was sarcasm.
Great news. Hopefully this will drive enough improvements to finally get me off adobe. Photomator is nearly good enough to replace Lightroom and Pixelmator is much nicer than photoshop for casual users.
Just saw this on Monet’s winter paintings: https://news.artnet.com/art-world/monet-the-magpie-three-fac...
Sure. But when all hands meetings are done well then they aren’t just about communicating company strategy. They’re about the employees too.

You’ll see demos from colleagues in different departments who you might not normally work with. And individuals praised for specific wins.

A good all hands should be for the staff, not for the execs. And that’s the harder skill execs need to learn: when to stfu and let their staff have screen time.

If all hands is done well, it brings the business closer and motivates employees in ways that an email couldn’t. However this is lost on most execs and so all hands often ends up being an ego trip for themselves, and when that happens the thats when things need to be communicated via email.
Even with CFOP, there is a large amount of intuition needed in order to break below the 25 second limit, mostly because of lookahead. During that phase, you need to train your fingers to do moves while your brain anticipates the next moves. There are no real formulas involved, it's really about intuition, pure skill, and multitasking.

I have hit a wall there personally.
Era of Cognitive Systems: An Inside Look at IBM Watson and How It Works (2012) [pdf]
Astonishingly to me at the time, the app never had a History function (as in Photoshop, list of history you could click through). I had been waiting 3+ years for it to materialize, in order to purchase it. Have since moved on to vector editors and don't see a need to go back.

*Actually now that I think about it, I don't seem to miss the lack of History in vector editors (and just use undo).
They had switched their Photomator spinoff to subscription pricing in 2022: https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/wrieaa/pixelmator_ph...

It's within the realm of possibility that a relaunched version of Pixelmator Pro could have subscription pricing as Apple has been playing with that with Logic Pro on iPad: https://support.apple.com/guide/logicpro-ipad/start-a-logic-...
It does, and this makes me nervous that they’ll screw it up. I’m a user of Apple Logic Pro and they’ve done a decent job of keeping it going for what, fifteen plus years? But I can’t offhand think of any other popular acquisition that they’ve improved upon and the kept improving off the top of my head (I’m sure there’s more that I’m not thinking of, maybe CUPS) without just sorta forgetting. At least there’s still Acorn.
You maybe should be looking more at location than the office amenities. A dentist on a popular shopping street may be relying on foot traffic to bring in patients. A dentist who’s buried in a neighborhood might get more word of mouth referrals.
You are thinking of AnTuTu.
