> The precedent of far-right state oppression of economic freedoms, political speech, businesses, and the free market would certainly affect you.

Nothing you do in the US is seen as a role model here. For both better and worse.

I mean, consider that the country I live in required the censorship of Wolfenstein 3D when it came out — it never copied US attitudes to freedom of speech in the first place. Likewise, even the (I think) more relaxed UK attitudes to political censorship are the kind of thing America would never accept, while the UK would never accept US attitudes to guns and even all the flag waving is seen as a bit sus.

Also, by US standards, almost all of us over here are basically what your politics would call communists — not just because of the huge massive statues the actual communists put up that nobody took down, e.g. https://maps.app.goo.gl/qFRPSDec3ujrX79bA, but just because the European (including UK) Overton Windows are almost entirely to the left of the US Overton Window.

The US has (theoretically) separation of Church and State, the UK has a state church, Germany has direct tax collections paid from your wages to your church (unless you ask to be excommunicated). And a few countries to the south (depending how you count the micro-states), there's the actual pope, head of all the catholics, telling people to chill about homosexuality.

The EU is what some of the louder US right wing voices in my lifetime have claimed they want the US federal government to be: only there to make inter-state trade easier, not have any real power over the states themselves. (The right wings within the EU are a lot more complex than that, as there's not much agreement between national politicians over all the member countries).

We're not on the same page about which side of the road to drive on, which units of measure to use, or if we should have conscription.

We're not copying the US, we have better things to spend our time on. Like who should pay to subsidise the Deutschlandticket, or if New Year fireworks should really be allowed to go continuously at full intensity from midnight to 3am plus sporadically from sunset to sunrise, or if we should be allowed to borrow money to resolve our economic depression.

> Look at how the far right has spread across Germany and the US, and many places in between.

And none of that had anything to do with Florida arguing with Disney.

I can tell, because that spread pre-dated the lawsuit by a decade. If anything, causality was reversed.

What did spread from the US and may have precipitated the far-right, was the impact of the misuse of the Black–Scholes model, but even then the biggest pain within the EU was the Greek economy and loans running through it, not Florida.

Thank you for the explanation. It's still an upwards update on the qubit timelines of https://arxiv.org/pdf/2009.05045 (see Fig. 7), but not by an insane amount. We've realized their 95% expectation of qubit progress (1 logical qubit) for 2026, in 2024.92 instead.

Which to be clear is quite a bit faster than expected in 2020, but still within the realm of plausible stuff.

Have you really not talked to anybody in real life about this? This is a case where the online reaction matches IRL. I've never seen such universal adulation across the spectrum.

It's as bad as it's ever been, and it's certainly not getting better with the Oompa-Loompa grifter in office.
Funny thing is it didn't have to be Funko or Brain Shield, anyone could have impersonated them in a takedown notice, it could have been a way more bogus notice too by the looks of it.

I know this says it will work on existing phones without modification, but will it work with all existing LTE phones, or just the ones with a new-enough modem?

For example, the Pixel 9 has a Exynos 5400 modem, which advertises satellite connectivity as one of its features. The upcoming Pixel 9a will use the older Exynos 5300, which does not have that same satellite feature.

It's not clear (to me) whether the newer modem's satellite feature refers to this or something else. Will the Pixel 9a be able to use this Starlink service once both are available to the general public?
Yeah, we can't have people doing this kind of thing, so I've banned the account, at least until we have some reason to believe it won't happen again.
I migrated my team of ~20 developers to Bazel, and I have to say I don’t think it is that complex. Not only don’t we have 3 full time engineers devoted to Bazel, as I do everything myself, but in fact it’s not even my main role to maintain the build system.

We do not use some of the more complex features like remote execution, but we do enjoy all the other features including remote caching. We reduced build times by 92% after the migration.

So my advice would be, try it and see for yourself if you think it’s worth the hassle. For my team, it definitely has been.
Technically it caps profits but through Hollywood accounting it is no obstacle.

Standard benchmark in what sense. Well, it was chosen for task where quantum computer would have better performance.

I am not saying this is nothing. Maybe, use more reserved words, e.g. "special quantum oriented benchmark" or something.

When I think of standard benchmark, I am thinking more common scenarios, e.g. searching, sorting, matrix multiplication.

Yeah I think it's very easy to forget we live in a surveillance state. Periodically something happens that lets us see it but we somehow, as a society, stop talking about it and next time something like this happens we're surprised.

We have the DEA and other three-letter agencies stashing cameras all over highways and even in residential areas.

We have mass surveillance of communications.

We have license plate readers everywhere.

We literally carry tracking devices everywhere we go.

Our cars also have their own tracking devices.

Facial recognition(and probably other recognition tech like gait) is widespread.

We have systems that can mass surveil entire cities from the sky.

And these are just the confirmed systems that we know about.

Parallel construction is frequently used and it's not even a secret at this point.

That said, don't underestimate the ability of a criminal, even a smart one, to screw up. As a group of smart engineers, we all know too well that even smart people make mistakes. They make even more mistakes when they're operating outside of their domain and under pressure/nervous. It shouldn't be surprising that the perp got caught.

The discrepancy I find more interesting is that the Italian traveler doesn't seem like the sort of person to be severely malnourished. Assuming it really is the same disease, it's one small indication that the 'trivial infection, abysmal baseline health status' explanation is not adequate.
No, ‘all’ is not subjective. My threshold for ‘any’ is one, and threshold for all is, well, all of them. My threshold for a majority is the usual one, as is my threshold for eighty or sixty per cent. I am deriving the worldview that it would be absurd to deny that there is at least one dissident. It doesn’t matter whether I derive this based on an understanding of a sample that is representative of China as a whole so long as it is representative of a subset, since that is such a modest claim.

If you want to make a different point about the majority, or a very big majority, or two people, you should make that point instead. Obviously the Chinese with whom I interact are of a certain class and intellectual formation of which I must remain aware; in particular, the closeness of some to the party breeds a unique type of contempt. That is why I am not trying to generalise; seemingly, you are.

> More importantly, engineers are for some reason especially likely to be terrorists.

Seems more likely you learn about engineers who become terrorists because they have the tools/knowhow/resources to pull something off. Without that it seems like it is more likely to get caught, give up, or do something no one would label terrorism.

edit - and it seems likely that this stat encourages terrorists organization to send members to get those degrees and recruit from engineers so it might be self reenforcing to boot.

God. These AI tools are really showing just how f’d up people are. AI is a scapegoat for the absurdity of society. We are a a scourge! Well, aren’t we? Look at what we’re doing and the way we use this to instinctively conduct psychological warfare on each other! People are facetious. People will kill each other, and people want to lie, steal, and cheat. God almighty. How depressing…

This is a problem that highlights the apparent either lack of effect, or lack of care for, consequences, period. The current consequences in place to deter this abysmal and abhorrent behavior simply aren’t enough. I look around and the world is going nuts, and failing, it seems, to attribute the cause with the effect. Shitty people doing shitty things. We don’t need new laws or regulations, when people aren’t willing or able to abide by the ones currently in place! What good will that do?

Personally, I don't put a lot of weight on that. Particularly for people who are terminally online, the Unabomber manifesto is kinda "edgy content". A lot of these people want to come off as "edgy". He had Mein Kampf in his Goodreads profile too. Without other evidence, I don't think that really says anything either.

Good example: his Goodreads had "Introduction to Algorithms" in it. This is the de facto textbook at MIT, Stanford, etc and likely UPenn (where he got his undergrad and Masters). Does that mean he read it? Not necessarily.

Put it this way: the number of people who have read Knuth's volumes is a lot smaller than those who own them as essentially expensive bookends or paperweights. But it's a nice way to signal your technical chops.

All of these things need to be taken in a broader context.
> makes it look like some people's lives are more important than others.

Sorry but they are. That's not me saying that. That's pretty much the entirety of human civilization. It's nice to think otherwise, but we as a species have made it clear that people are far from being equally important.
He's right. Violence is as American as apple pie and teen pregnancy.

Why does that matter? Everyone has their own uses for a vlm. Compare them for the given task at hand.
- Gang-related homicides are less than 20% of all homicides in the US.

- Gang-related homicides includes the homicides of innocent bystanders of gang-related shootings.

- Over half of all homicide victims are non-white.

These three facts make it obvious that well above 60% of all non-white homicides are NOT “gang-targeted or -involved”.

If it is true that 80% [EDIT: not true (I misread stat in another comment) but gist of argument still stands] of non-white cases go unsolved, then more than 50% of all unsolved non-white homicides are NOT gang-related in any way.

And this is an extremely conservative estimate. Just fixing unfavorable rounding adjusts the percentage of unrelated unsolved homicides to above 65%.

Given that, it doesn’t seem wise to presume gang-involvement on the part of non-white unsolved homicide victims solely on the basis of them being… non-white unsolved homicide victims.
That sounds like a clear lie, no? If your wish is for someone to take down a specific page, you don't report them to their domain registrar for fraud.
I thought that "modem's satellite feature" is usually the Apple-like emergency SOS which requires special hardware to literally contact a satellite.

What deep blacks? CRTs didn't have them; "black" was really gray. You can see it yourself: go find an old CRT monitor, make sure it's powered off and you have a reasonable amount of ambient light for normal viewing conditions, and look at the screen. It's gray, not black. That's as black as the screen gets. Now try the same with any modern OLED screen; the off state is much darker.

I wonder if one day we will figure out a method by which the kernel can analyze the software it is running and then automatically distribute the workload in an ideal manner based on resources.

Probably a moot point but most computers leave so much performance on the table due to poor software optimizations and not taking advantage of the systems full capabilities due to having to try to make software work on essentially all computers rather than laser focusing on a specific hardware set.
> This isn't me saying we shouldn't kill CEOs...

You probably should be saying that. As you point out, people haven't really exhausted the reasonable recourses so there is no reason to resort to unreasonable ones. Gunning people down on the street to exercise political pressure is barbaric and intolerable.
It depends.

You can corrupt memory in such a way that allows executing arbitrary code, in which you could do anything that the process has privilege to do, which is probably reading and writing files as the current user and a lot more.
Because of the breakdown where insurance companies have separate per-state operations with varying amounts of independence, it’s hard to come by agreeable numbers on who is largest, but UHG covers about 50 million people, and depending on if you lump all of the blue cross umbrella or not, UHG is either the #1 or #2 largest health insurer in the country.

This can be much more specific, most Americans or someone they know have probably had a negative brush with United Healthcare specifically. (they also have the highest rate of claims denials of any of the insurers)
