I’m pretty sure (not 100%) that new cars with contactless keys have this feature by default. You can get out (with the key) and leave it running, but the shifter won’t work until you return with the key.

Not even all that much more verbosely. It's two paragraphs, the first of which is spent saying why he shouldn't be talking about it. The second paragraph is four sentences long.

I think that it is true that libertarians are mostly men, and I do think there's a reason for it. I think it's the same reason that libertarians are mostly white, mostly straight, mostly healthy, mostly cisgender, and mostly middle-class: they have all the protections they need and don't see why anybody else should need different ones.

But it's sure as heck not because women are smarter. And libertarians are certainly not those bottom-10%. He's right: he does need to stay out of sociology, though it doesn't sound like his philosophical work is any better.

You could use the Dow though. It varied from 2700 to 2900 in 1950, and is now about 45,000, so about a 16x increase, while inflation over the same period has been about 30x. However the index price doesn't account for dividends, so total return has been much larger.
this was pretty much spot-on to my experience and track. the ridicule of people choosing to use ollama over llamacpp is so tired.

i had already burned an evening trying to debug and fix issues getting nowhere fast, until i pulled ollama and had it working with just two commands. it was a shock. (granted, there is/was a crippling performance problem with sky/kabylake chips but mitigated if you had any kind of mid-tier GPU and tweaked a couple settings)

anyone who tries to contribute to the general knowledge base of deploying llamacpp (like TFA) is doing heaven's work.
I ask myself this often, usually while despairing that the lead dev doesn’t see any point to build pipelines, unit tests, SQL migrations (literally right clicks and edits a database schema), and the requirement of needing Remote Desktop to a VM to do anything.
There has been incredible inflation for items that cannot be exported in the US. Think healthcare, education and housing. Things that could be sent overseas like TVs, Computers, Clothing has seen their prices deflate. The combo of the two is what is called inflation but the later hides the fact we have increased our money supply incredibly since 1950 and that will show in the things that did not find a way to get cheaper.
amazing ! Yes thank you

I don’t know how that would work, since that data is the personal information of whoever is in the car at the time of collection, so I would guess that the applicant to get the info would have to substantiate that they were in the car at the time, regardless of the ownership of the car.

Or maybe just ownership of the car is enough? I kind of suspect it might not be though.
Since you seem passionate about precise definitions for technical terms, maybe you could point us to third-party definitions which match your understanding? Start with sources for what "compilation" and "tokenization" mean as you understand them?

Is there case law on this? I don't see any way in which this is legally theft by the OP (admittedly my knowledge is more US-centric than Euro-centric). If I let someone tether a device to my cell phone (or loan my phone to them), are they committing theft?

The company on the contract voluntarily gave the SIM to OP.
And a lot of folks don't have parents leaving them a portfolio or a high value asset they can live in. A material amount of people 55+ have no retirement savings, have material amounts of debt, or are in similar situations where the house might have to be sold versus be conveyed to children at death to break even (healthcare, senior|nursing home, memory care facility costs until death).

If you are lucky enough to inherit an unencumbered (or one with a mortgage you can at least afford) residential property you can live in as a young person when your parent(s) pass, that is fantastic luck. Take the win if you can get it. That is not the mean experience, based on the data.

I agree we shouldn't let "regular Germans" from that time escape the responsibility for WW2. Be it through voting for Hitler, supporting nazis in other ways, or simply ignoring the threat and not uniting and voting against Hitler before it was too late.

But you wrote "every soldier in German military" which is just wrong. German military had many soldiers forcibly drafted from occupied countries. One famous example is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%B3zef_Tusk

People downvote you because you were confidently wrong.
It doesn't mean it wasn't desired. It could have been replaced with something else even more expensive.
You're right, looks like 0.3.5 is now on the home page.
Many modern ambulances have a similar shifter disable switch so that it can be left running and someone can't take off with your ambulance while you're off collecting your patient.
This can be difficult to grasp.

I bought an aparment 3.5 years ago and it had an alarm installed.

I called the security company to transfer ownership but that couldn’t be done without authorisation from the previous owner, which probably makes sense. The problem is, they were unreachable, and I was living on a house that I now owned, and which had cameras the previous owner could take pics from at any time.

My patience was running out so I threatened the security company with removing the cameras installed in the house I owned, but I was told that they owned them even if they were inside my house.
The scary part is not the GPS installed by the fleet company that previously owned the car, which in all likelihood was just forgotten there, but the GPS and eSIM that comes with most (all?) new cars and that in most (all?) new cars cannot be disabled.

Apart from privacy concerns of your data being used or sold by the car vendor, government outreach is also a concern. There was a bill announced in the US for all new cars to be equipped with "driver impairment" tech which was called a "kill switch". Media rushed to say it's not really a kill switch, just "sensors or cameras to monitor the driver’s behaviors, head or eye movements" and "block the driver from operating the vehicle". So... a kill switch. https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-402773429497

Anyway, I'm staying with my old gas Honda until it dies which is probably never with proper maintenance and eventually restoration. I'll never go electric. Modern cars are just smartphones on wheels at this point, and smartphones are just spying devices at this point.
Used car dealers install those as per bank requirement to find the car in case it needs to be repoed, if the customer finishes the payment it just stays in the car but the account is disabled (the dealer pays a monthly fee for nothing otherwise). So basically it’s sending location data to nobody.
The sad thing is that most people don't learn lessons from history. It took me far too long to start learning lessons from history.

After an asset bubble and collapse people will understand why we have a lot of the regulations from the 1930s.
PIP and similar things also get "misused" with other anti-management techniques like stack ranking.

Someone I know got put on a PIP solely because the dictates from Upper Management said that annual review scores must have a certain distribution and average per team - and that naturally means someone it at the bottom. And the dictated numbers means that people with lower scores must be put on a PIP. It happened to be the newest, least experienced member of our team, and the PIP "plan" itself (as written by the team lead) was effectively "Continue what you're doing", but they were still forced by HR to do it.

They left themselves a year later, and I don't blame them. They just re-introduced all the worst parts of "stack ranking" and firing the "worst" person in the team with more bureaucracy.

My car came with a similar toggle switch under the dash. I figured out it was to fully disable the ABS system. (The previous owner was a fan of taking his car two track days.)

I kept accidentally toggling it off with my knee, so I replaced it with a nice flush push button. I haven't tracked the car yet though.
Steinbeck's books were mostly late-30s, no? Which one are you thinking of? Grapes of Wrath is mostly around Bakersfield, Cannery Row and East of Eden are Monterey/Salinas Valley. I'm not sure of anything set that far north.

I have family photos from back in the 50s showing lots of good orchards in the Bay Area. Certainly no dust bowl stuff. If I remember correctly, my grandparents bought their 5BR tract house in Santa Clara in the mid-1950s for somewhere around $15 or $16k, which was ~40% more expensive than the median California house back then. The Bay Area has always been expensive!!!
Almost all of the middle class tract homes built in California (for example) in the 60s/70s are around 1200sf. They also used cheap materials, had no insulation, maybe 2 bathrooms but often 1.5, very simple kitchens, etc.

The stuff that people buy now are much bigger and much more luxurious even at the bottom end.

The contract would likely say something to the effect of "I promise to pay for the data sent to or from this device" and nothing about the owner of the device. If anything was said about the owner, it would be that the responsibility of the original contract holder is to ensure the contract was terminated when the sale took place.

My mother died that way, after a fairly long and cautious consultation process, but through medical assistance. She had a cluster of health problems, and also suffered from mental problems caused by recurring memories caused by dementia. The other prognosis would have been: suffering in a hospice until her body would give up. Now she could die in peace, surrounded by her family. We didn't really know the extent of her suffering, but after the first injection, a strong sedative, she spoke her final words: "I have no pain. I have no pain."

It's really good that it's possible.
Looks great!

The most portable way to do it with minimal overhead is with sed:

sed -e '/pattern1/!d' -e '/pattern2/!d'

which generalizes to more terms. Easier to remember and just as portable is

awk '/pattern1/ && /pattern2/'

but now you need to launch a full awk.

Only because it would be unconscionable to apply copyright to actual human brains, so we don't. But, for instance, you absolutely can commit copyright violation by reading something and then writing something very similar, which is one reason why reverse engineering commonly uses clean-room techniques.

It's also legal in Colombia.
It needs to account for the difference is sizes. Average square footage in 1950 was just under 1000 sqft; in 2024, it's more like 2300.

In Texas, for example, the inflation adjusted cost per square foot was $79 in 1950, and about $130 in 2024. Still a steep rise, but a 60% jump instead of the 285% without considering square footage.

Black Friday is one of those imported things we could do without. Did you know shops in the Netherlands are now massively participating in Black Friday? We didn't even have this 'event' ten years ago.

Because of our Sinterklaas gift giving event on 5 December people would have been out shopping for presents in any case (like Xmas presents, just earlier and with the OG Santa instead of the Coca Cola dude), so in terms of footfall it doesn't change much, but it was just too good of an opportunity to pass up I guess.

Refreshingly, one national household items chain (Dille & Kamille) closed its store in my town today, with a notice stating the staff was out picking up litter around the city centre instead of submitting to the consumerist Black Friday phenomenon. Interesting, but on-profile for their brand. Good deeds are a marketing opportunity too of course.
As an ML researcher who started in physics (this seems common among physics/math turned ML people. Which Evan is included), I cannot tell you how bad is it... One year at CVPR when diffusion models hit the scenes I was asking what people's covariance was (I had overestimated the model complexity), and the most common answer I got was "how do I calculate that?" People do not understand things like what "pdf" means. People at top schools! I've been told I'm "gatekeeping" for saying that you should learn math (I say "you don't need math to build good models, but you do to understand why they're wrong"). Not that you need to, but should. (I guess this explains why Mission Impossible Language Models won best paper...)

I swear, the big reason models are black boxes are because we _want_ them to be. There's clear anti-sentiment mentality against people doing theory and the result of this shows. I remember not too long ago Yi Tay (under @agihippo but main is @YiTayML) said "fuck theorists". I guess it's not a surprise Deep Mind recently hired him after that "get good" stuff.

Also, I'd like to point out, the author uses "we" but the paper only has one author on it. So may I suggest adding their cat as a coauthor? [0]

At that point, you could point out that you have no contract with them, and that they’ve abandoned their property on your place.

The last time I checked, US property rights made it clear that you cannot just store stuff on other people’s land without permission, and then complain when they throw it away.

They could try to argue that whatever contract the previous owner signed still applies, but for that to be the case, they would have had to amend the deed to the property, and that should have been noticed by your title agency.
I think the sheriff's practice of putting stuff in the street during an eviction would be a possible course of action there.

> The short answer is that a house is no longer a place to live, but an abstract financial asset.

This line of thinking is commonly repeated, but it fails to take into account the old “location, location, location” thing. If you bought a house that was once in the middle of farmland 30+ years ago but now that house is on (let’s say) two acres of land in the middle of a coveted suburb of a large city where the average house sits on .2 acres, why _wouldn’t_ that house (or more accurately, the land) have appreciated greatly in value?

A LOT of these houses that “boomers” bought were once out in the boonies, and now those places are desirable, developed areas.
Also by forcing managers to drag employees through a pip process, you:
(a) reduce risk of wrongful termination suits.
(b) increase likelihood that an abusive manager is discovered.

I'm sure lots bad managers get away with bad stuff, even when a pip process is in place.

But every bit of documentation produced by a pip could certainly backfire on a bad manager.

Again obviously, not all bad managers will be stopped, not will all bad employees :)
It’s surprisingly common for SIMs in IoT devices to not be locked down. If the data usage spikes enough above the noise it’ll probably be detected & deactivated.

> The German Army (German: Heer, German: [heːɐ̯] ⓘ; lit. 'army') was the land forces component of the Wehrmacht,[b] the regular armed forces of Nazi Germany, from 1935 until it effectively ceased to exist in 1945 and then was formally dissolved in August 1946.[4] During World War II, a total of about 13.6 million volunteers and conscripts served in the German Army.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Army_(1935%E2%80%9319...

So far, seems one army existed. The German army. That army was the army of Nazi Germany. that army was Nazi Germany‘s army.

> The Wehrmacht (German pronunciation: [ˈveːɐ̯maxt] ⓘ, lit. 'defence force') were the unified armed forces of Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1945. It consisted of the Heer (army), the Kriegsmarine (navy) and the Luftwaffe (air force). The designation "Wehrmacht" replaced the previously used term Reichswehr (Reich Defence) and was the manifestation of the Nazi regime's efforts to rearm Germany to a greater extent than the Treaty of Versailles permitted.[11]

Here’s probably the most important thing to read, because it directly disproves you

> After the death of President Paul von Hindenburg on 2 August 1934, Adolf Hitler assumed the office of President of Germany, and thus became commander in chief. In February 1934, the Defence Minister Werner von Blomberg, acting on his own initiative, had all of the Jews serving in the Reichswehr given an automatic and immediate dishonorable discharge.[33] Again, on his own initiative Blomberg had the armed forces adopt Nazi symbols into their uniforms in May 1934.[34] In August of the same year, on Blomberg's initiative and that of the Ministeramt chief General Walther von Reichenau, the entire military took the Hitler oath, an oath of personal loyalty to Hitler.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wehrmacht

The German army adopted Nazi symbols and swore an oath to hitler.
Legally speaking the data was recorded without consent so if the company receiving this data tries to claim ownership, they'll need to delete it anyway.

However, because the author lives in a country covered by the GDPR, they have a right to receive, correct, and adjust the personal information collected on them. No need to capture the data transmitted by the system, the company is legally obligated to hand over every bit of personal information they have on the author, including any pseudomised information, in a format that's machine readable.

In theory you'd be liable for racking up a bill if you use their SIM card, but I doubt it still works.

I'd like all buffers to be flushed whenever the systemwide CPU becomes idle.

Buffering generally is a CPU-saving technique. If we had infinite CPU, all buffers would be 1 byte. Buffers are a way of collecting together data to process in a batch for efficiency.

However, when the CPU becomes idle, we shouldn't have any work "waiting to be done". As soon as the kernel scheduler becomes idle, all processes should be sent a "flush your buffers" signal.
They own the cameras. You can still take them down and give them back if requested.
