> It’s more expensive and has the opposite effect.

Nonsense, fentanyl is waaay cheaper than coke or heroin or any other street drug, like nearly an order of magnitude more per dollar when buying dealer-level quantities. The depressant/stimulant effect stuff is somewhat true, but different people are effected differently by different drugs, most people aren't drug connoisseurs, and a large part of the high is psychosomatic, so experienced and knowledgeable people might have some idea of the purity but it won't really stop others from buying.
The short answer is that it doesn't. The iCloud website only shows devices that are actively uploading their location to Apple, such as iPhones and iPads. AirTags are not shown there, as they use the FindMy network instead (the whole other-devices-find-your-airtags mechanism). This library focuses on the latter.

Apple devices can query your AirTag's location because they sync its shared secrets through the iCloud keychain, which is used to generate temporary keys that can be use to download and decrypt the tag's location.
I agree they didn't give equal time to all possible explanations, but given that they can only speculate, I think they probably chose the most realistic explanation from among the likely possibilities, and they gave it enough throat-clearing up front that I wasn't confused about whether they were saying they'd proven it or not. I'm not saying they couldn't have done a better job of saying "hey, we're just guessing here, for funsies", but it didn't bother me.

From
1.criticism of how inadequate the transformer architecture is
2.depletion of training data
3.improvements to the attention mechanism
4. AGI supposedly being miles away

where does the new results put the field and what avenues need more focus and what others need less focus to the point of complete cutoff?

I actually don't think everyone would agree. I certainly wouldn't. So, to be absolutely pedantic about this, you're wrong :)

Multi member districts does circumvent one of the assumptions of Duverger's Law, which predicts a two-party system.

But you still need to work around collusions between candidates. Candidates will be pushed to run on a slate of N candidates for N seats, and promise to support each other. Voters who want any of their positions will avoid somebody who would interfere with their own top priority. The result acts the same as a two party system, where all N candidates support the same party.

You can get some benefit by combining it with List Voting, where you go ahead and reify the party system. The party gets to send whoever it wants, proportional to the votes.That makes it harder to run multiple candidates that take all of the spots. (Not impossible: they can break into multiple virtual parties. But that's risky and coordinating votes is difficult.)

Even at that I'm not sure it really helps. Lawmaking is still fundamentally a "single member" operation: a bill either passes or it doesn't. You still get pushed to be in either the majority or minority coalition.

The problem with string views is that they are borrowing the parent string, so you'd need to hold a strong reference to the parent string. This is easy to do in a garbage collected language, because you don't have to do anything. But it's a lot more complicated if you need to do this with reference counting. Do you make every single string view update the reference counter? Do you make a special lighter string view that doesn't keep a counted reference, and is subject to memory safety issues?

Even if we pretend nepotism doesn't exists, academia is still not a strict meritocracy. In addition to merit, at least two factors play an important role in success, which having a good mentor helps a lot.

1) Tacit knowledge. In many fields, there are important information only accessible from having a mentor like heuristics, insider information, in-lab techniques etc.

2) Investment opportunities. A good adviser is often good at spotting opportunities for their students. It's also common for an academic adviser to share their most valuable opportunities with their students.

It's clear to me that the ideal of meritocracy (talent and hard work leads to success) does not hold in academia, and maybe not anywhere. Having a good mentor gives you extremely valuable information that contribute to success. On the other hand, I am not sure this can be fixed or even needs fixing. I think it's healthy for academics to be partially siloed, so that they can develop their unique approaches and maintain a healthy diversity for the field.

This might solve a problem I have! Whenever I use Google Takeout, it generates a new copy of a photo in Google Photos for every album that it's in, which means it takes up significantly more space than it should!

I've used fdupes to calculate just how much duplication is happening, and apparently out of 650+ gigabytes of photos, fully 250 gigabytes are duplicates.

Any information created by humans is part of our "culture". You may consider it of no value, but someone else may beg to differ.

I went to a fantastic talk a few years ago at the British Library about digitizing a substantial quantity historic Australian newspapers. It was amazing to be able to read funeral announcements, product advertisements and other signals from the past showing us Australian culture from the 1800s.

Since we leave much less behind in terms of physical assets (personal letters, postcards, personal diaries), we should at least aspire to archive more from the digital realm, or to future historians we'd look like a blank century.

>Being monogamous with a cheating partner is...not so great at it. Their tolerance for risky behavior is obviously high, and they're already showing a lack of care for any consequences by stepping out.

That's not a case of real monogamy. We could call it "attempted monogamy" maybe. Cheating partners often want to keep their original relationships intact and as such don't take extreme risks. They probably aren't sleeping with other people as often as a poly person would, and the type of person they sleep with is likely less promiscuous than a poly person.

It seems pretty clear to me that STD risks are lower for those in nominally monogamous relationships, even if there is always some risk of cheating. Redefining the cheating as acceptable behavior (that is, redefining the relationship as poly) is not solving any STD problems. It might if you absolutely cannot trust your partner to be remotely monogamous, but you do want to stay with them, and you do trust them to tell you who they're sleeping with, AND you can effectively use that information to reduce your own risks. For me, I just don't want to be with someone who does not think I'm enough.

I think STAR voting wins out in quality as a voting system and understandability to people who don't know what a voting system is.
The "less legislation" mindset is fundamentally flawed in the US. Most people who espouse it do so because good societies ostensibly don't have tons of legislation. But legislation is a symptom, not the problem. If this legislation isn't present in other countries, it's because they don't have this problem.
Also, I believe by default the files are saved as plain html (with resources being base64 encoded), so search tools which can index the contents of html files will work.

There is also the option to have the contents compressed, and (a separate option) to keep the plaintext of the file uncompressed, which will likewise still allow indexing to work while saving space.
I think there's also a different and deeper question: what does the voting system do to the society it is running on. This is a very different kind of discussion than "does it map preferences well", but arguably more important.

Technically, yes! I have an experimental Home Assistant integration here, if you're into that stuff: https://github.com/malmeloo/hass-FindMy

However, do note that AirTags put themselves into "nearby" mode when they're near an owner device, at which point they become untraceable to the FindMy network (the system where other iPhones are finding your AirTag and uploading its location). That also makes it invisible to this library. It is however still possible to detect it using the BLE signal it is broadcasting in nearby state, which is supported by the library but not yet by the HA integration.
Right. Now the problem is that certain activities need inherent creativity, and also need the (self-)development/evolving of this creativity. While creativity is usually associated with human arts, actually mathematics, especially theoretical mathematics needs a lot of it, to figure out proofs, to come up with new solutions and of course intuition, to at least have some slight idea where to start looking. (Certainly some parts of maths can be figured out with brute force also. But usually these hard nuts are a different category)

Our current neural networks are quite "static" compared to what's needed for this self-developing creativity. But looking at your profile, probably you could lecture me about this, so I wouldn't waste a lot of bits here.

I remember those days, and agreed things were slow...but i feel like at least the thought that went into trying to ensure code and assets implemented for mobile were better simply because devs at least tried to optimize things to improve/have the best experience possible (even with the slower pipes). Nowadays, i feel many devs fill as much javascript and framework libraries for the web experience, that we have so much bloat...and when some of these devs or their leaders are asked "what about the mobile experience for our mobile visitors/customers, etc.?"...they often respond with something along the lines as "Don't worry, we'll just send'em to the mobile app, which is managed by the separate mobile dev team....etc.". Or, maybe i',m too cynical these days? :-)

We're capable of caring about more than one thing at a time.
It looks like you are basically outlining the solution with the description of the file format.

If it is { header, files[], hash_table[], block_table[] } then it would mean that you likely can de-duplicate based on the block_table or the hash_table (not familiar with the format itself). It may be prudent to check how many MPQ files have the same blocks inside them (checksumming or hashing, comparing on multiple checksums). If there is some overlap and some blocks are present in multiple files, you can extract those blocks and allow any version of the file be reconstituted back into an MPQ file - as long as you know which blocks to combine and in which order.
I think one of the major obvious changes from generation to generation is that it’s now the norm that anyone who’s too drunk or acting up because of drugs will expect to be instantly live broadcast to the world and have those videos shared to anyone who knows them.

Back 20 years ago if you got too drunk it was just a funny story people would retell, now at least in college it’s a fixed part of your online persona as anyone who knows you will have videos of it share with them.

The negative view of monogamy is the Internet amplifying the most controversial "hot take" because it gets more clicks than "Do what thou will".

I was monogamous with my wife for about 8 years and I loved her and I think I still love her even though we broke up and probably won't be together again romantically ever.

I would say that monogamy, right now, is _not for me_. I just crave adventure, I'm a contrarian, I want more out of life than the standard, I want to sleep around. The revealed preference is that I want every aspect of my life to be "different" whether that's desktop Linux, veganism, changing my gender, etc.

If I had left that marriage and got into another monogamous relationship, in a few months I'd be wanting to date other people again.

When you write something like that, you probably want to add what are "far more important issues to worry over" and why pursuing this legislation would cause delay on that issues. And just in case you're not aware of, "far more important issues to worry over" is usually much harder and more complex to gather consensus across stakeholders and passing this kind of minor legislations doesn't really have any impacts or delay there. This is more of "spare time" stuff.
