I read this with an echo of the Douglas Adams passage about the Sandwich Maker in Mostly Harmless.

> many was the evening when the Sandwich Maker and the Tool Maker could be seen silhouetted against the light of the setting sun and the Tool Maker's forge making slow sweeping movements through the air, trying one knife after another, comparing the weight of this one with the balance of another, the suppleness of a third and the handle binding of a fourth
I don't know for a fact how the machine does it based on feather shading, but I do know for a fact that there is a thing about chickens: sex linking in hybrids.

When you hybridize certain pairs of breeds (e.g. reds and barred rocks) the hybrid chicks show different feather coloring at the time they hatch. Hybridization can also produce offspring which are for instance more productive egg layers. Being hybrids, they don't breed true.

Not all hybrids have the same consistent sex-linked characteristics.
Alcoholism in Russia, and most of the former USSR is just like, real bad. The sex ratio in Russia is something like 80 men : 100 women, and it's mostly due to alcohol.
There's also a podcast episode with her that I really enjoyed: https://www.npr.org/2020/03/23/820009335/invisibilia-an-unli...
By "small" they mean, "Total cost of production for a feature length movie coming in under a few million dollars"

Outright purchasing a camera and equipment vs renting them for a shoot is a waste of money unless you're a production company that is going to use the equipment over and over again until it falls apart, and even then if you rent it it is on the rental company to handle maintenance and providing replacements in case of equipment breakdown, so it can still be a good deal for you.
I've experienced that frustration myself several times and tried to do "rust but simpler". I just recently failed attempt #4 at not reinventing rust but worse. Attempt #2 ended with Erlang but worse, which was a pleasant surprise.

It would definitely be useful. This is part of the plan and we started exploring different possibilities (early stage, at the moment).
Thank you for the feedback and for filing the feature request on GH.
If you want to make it a flat dollar amount, you won't find an argument from me.

I happen to think a flat percentage without deductions or credits is the best compromise with the people who think everyone else isn't paying their "fair share". If everyone pays this 10% (or whatever) then there's no quibbling about this or that deduction or tax shenanigan (buying art, etc).
You can see the chain of thought! That's nice.

OTOH, I asked it a math question that o1 got right and it messed up.
There are quite a few cine cameras that are more than 10x this amount, and there are a few that are 100x. For example, there are Panavision cameras that you can only rent direct from Panavision that require that you have half a million dollars of insurance coverage to rent. There are ARRIs that you can buy from B&H that are $100k. $30k is definitely in the range of something that individual DPs/operators could own, although it’s getting into rental territory for lots of people.
Journals do want to publish, especially when information is exciting. The usual process of science is to trust that writers have at least some integrity. Peer reviewers aren't expected to be able to reproduce the work. They're more of a sanity check.

Bad papers usually aren't retracted. More often, they're forgotten. And that usually works out well enough. Retractions are needed only when a paper has enough attention that it isn't sufficiently forgotten.

So it's very common for a retraction to take a long time. It takes a while even to notice that a retraction is needed, and then you make quintuple-certain that the call for retraction is correct.
Works for me even on intel integrated. Nice work.

edit: I see you also wrote a webgpu ray tracer, very impressive! I am slowly working on a browser based 3d game in my spare time, your projects are right on my interests. I see you used MIT license on your ray tracer, do you have a license for the sponza demo?

If I can actually hit "ctrl-s" and save it offline, that's a huge and worthwhile feature that meaningfully changes how I can interact with the project; it's not purely a fluff description.
Sorry, just to repeat, Kowloon != Kowloon Walled City.

Kowloon itself is home to 2 million people and is a much larger geographical area. Walled City was strictly an enclave area around an old Chinese fort within Kowloon proper.

A comparison might be referring to Washington Square Park, Manhattan, New York City as simply "Manhattan".

Congrats on the launch! Looks fantastic.

I've been thinking about exactly this kind of architecture (vision-language models + physical robot ==> performing tasks)

I'd love to tinker with one (or more) of these 'Bots.

Question: Is the entire inference in the cloud? or on the Bot's hardware?
Sounds like abortions
I'm not sure I am understanding where exactly this slots in, but isn't this an embedding model? Shouldn't they be comparing it to a service like Voyage AI?

I hear people complain about this but maybe I'm just better at serving fake goods.

I grew up in a place and time where scams were everywhere. I now invest in garage stage startups, and endlessly amused.

I was being a bit tongue in cheek, and my partner does tell me she has never met anyone more literal or rigid. So I take your point -- and it's fair.

That being said, many in the UK do use the simple past and perfect exactly as I've described. Using the simple past where the perfect is expected is, to their ears, unmistakably incorrect, whereas plenty of native speakers in the US draw no distinction whatsoever.
Hey, celebrate someone putting faith to the test, doing actual research rather than just listening to others, and changing their view based in data. It's hard, and a great example to follow.
On one hand, yes you should be skeptical of industry reports.

On the other hand, just looking at year-over-year shoplifting numbers wouldn't reflect increasing prevention cost - like hiring more security, putting more items in cases, or closing down stores.
Isn't this more of an "anything is better than google ad-ified and seo optimized trash pile" moment?

Even if the AI is wrong a percentage of the time, I almost prefer "dumb/buggy wrong" vs "capitalist lies wrong" Of course neither actually deserves a future.
Almost famously so.
A lot of Java professors did that in the past, because the "not hello world" parts of "hello world" require a bit more understanding, and in the spirit of getting people started, the idea is to just say "hey memorize this boilerplate stuff, eventually you'll understand what it means."
you can use a "usb hub with a PD usb C connector"

you can connect your charger into the PD port, and the hub into your device to charge.
The slow progress of WebGPU and WebTransport has hurt my enthusiasm for games on the web. I was so excited 6-7 years ago but it feels like everything slowed to a crawl.
This doesn't seem ambiguous. "All you guys are" seems to be narrowing the focus of the sentence, because otherwise it would be more fluidly spoken as "all of you are", and it sounds unnatural to add to the sentence for no other purpose. (It sounds somewhat unnatural under either interpretation, though). If it had been "you guys are all", perhaps that would be ambiguous, but only with a strong emphasis on the word 'guys', which is not how the phrase is normally spoken. Either way I'd expect the dance teacher to be using hand gestures at the same time to indicate which people they're giving directions to.

Yay, I have a commit or two in this release! So excited to see the type system continue to roll out
Apps using either of these are just off-limits for me. There is a photo picker UI where the App gets NO permanent permissions and just gets the photo(s) you end up picking.

Any non-camera / non-photo editing app should never need any permanent access to your library, restricted set or not.
The debunking quickly regress into a ridiculous strawman where hypothesis is debunked if there are stronger explanatory local factors. Like Mexican crime and drug related violence.
I appreciate all the work you and other maintainers put into Tridactyl as it’s the best extension of its kind so far. That being said Vim-in-the-browser still sucks to this day, especially with so many webapp sites that hijack browser shortcuts and never play nice with F-navigation.

Is there a way to completely disable all regular browser shortcuts as well as all key event propagation to the sites themselves, and make Tridactyl the be-all-end-all handler for the keyboard?
The Wikipedia page is a good read for context. Basically, this type of scam was born in China, during COVID confinement, and was named in similarity to fattening a pig (making them "invest" increasing amounts in worthless ecoins) before slaughtering it.

Romance scam is a completely different thing, but they could happen in parallel.

Revisiting Stereotype Threat
> when communities trade between each other

Extractive industry like Amazon kill the local producers and siphon the money out of smaller areas and concentrate it in richer areas. When there are no local producers or wealth left, what is there to circulate or trade?

Amazon is an Internet-myelinated version of the Wal-Mart effect, with more packaging waste.
I heard Kent Beck (if my memory is good) that Waterfall is the method used at Facebook (he worked there)
These things are expensive... I ended up going with a DAS, a Terramaster D6-320. It was less than half the price (270€), suits my context (network-access isn't a must; the DAS is small enough to fit behind my TV), it doesn't "force" me to upgrade my network to 10gbps (expensive!) to get reasonable performance (it's USB 3.2 gen2 - 10gbps), and I can always make a DIY NAS out of it if one day I need to.
Evidence that white people came up with Latinx? My sense was always that Hispanic leftists came up with it, and it was then amplified by their white leftist friends.

Which is maybe a distinction without a difference, and I realize that you were probably just making a pithy statement. But I think its important if we want to examine how something like that actually came to be.
I wish there was some browser solution for apps like this where you could save and share your app state between your own devices, and push/share that state with others, all without any server backend involvement e.g. so you could have a Kanban board shared with others and the state would be stored locally and/or in bring-your-own cloud storage.

There's so many apps like this that could be simple, but for robust state saving involve setting up and maintaining a backend (e.g. with security patches, backups, performance monitoring). There's also the privacy implications on your data being store on someone's server, and the risk of data leaks.

It's like there's a key part of the internet that's missing.

Something like this could be a browser extension? This exists?

The 3DS was fun but it was gimmicky, and it wasn't great.

I would love to have a 3d tv that works without glasses even if it was a limited depth thing (like multiple screens on top of each other to create real depth within a confined space) but I think the technology of the 3DS screen wouldn't scale to larger screens.
>If you are working at such a company, that reflects on your skill more than anything else.

Maybe he's so good everyone is less skilled than he is.
It's an interesting question to compare video quality in mono vs stereo.

In stereo you really do have more visual information. It's not unusual for 10% of the pixels in a stereogram (say a close up of a person) to be unique to one channel. On top of that you have left and right eye pixels that are shared which must be equivalent to more than one mono pixel even if they aren't equivalent to two.

Although I get MPO's with two JPEGs in one file from my New 3DS, stereo content is frequently delivered in side-by-side format as one big JPEG. Stereo movies and TV frequently use side-by-side with half horizontal resolution on the assumption that stereo is feeding your eyes and brains more data although it probably doesn't match the original perceived resolution.
That’s the whole reason that small claims court exists.
I don't understand how you got down from 7% down to 1.6%. I think you are not counting COGS as an expense, and that's where the error comes from. If your assumptions are otherwise correct, I think you'd get roughly a 7% increase in prices to sustain the 20% bump in wage expense.
>> slower than having everyone work on their own problems

That’s fascinating, i recognise every bit of everything else you said but in my experience this was the golden redeeming quality - velocity of correct code is massively (maybe 4x) sped up.

Maybe the difference is overall - pairing becomes too tiring so you might be extremely productive but the short periods of it mean that the slow and steady solo approach wins out because you can do it for longer.
I have been reading arguments about "things like alignment faking" for years, while simultaneously holding that "it's just autocomplete".

The alignment-faking arguments are still terrifying to the extent that they're plausible. In the hypothetical where I'm wrong about it being "just autocomplete" (and fundamentally, inescapably so), the risk is far greater than can be justified by the potential benefits.

But that's itself a large part of why I believe those arguments are false. If I gave them credit and they turned out to be false, then I figure I have succumbed to a form of Pascal's Mugging. If I don't give them credit and it turns out that a hostile, agentive AGI has been pretending to be aligned, I don't expect anyone (including myself) to survive long enough to rub it in my face.

Honestly, I sometimes worry that we'll doom ourselves by taking AI too seriously even if it's indeed "just autocomplete". We've already had people commit suicide. The sheer amount of text that can now be generated that could propose harmful actions and sound at least plausible is worrying, even if it doesn't reflect the intent of an agent to convince others to take those actions. (See also e.g. Elsagate.)

I challenge you to write the function signature I posted in Python, Javascript, or Kotlin; I'm confident you will not be able to, and the alternatives will be more provincial and unergonomic.

Hint: Python and Javascript will use the type passed to determine mutability. Kotlin will let you pass a mutableStateFlow etc that can be used for, e.g., top-level data structure, but not an arbitrary variable. (e.g. a data structure field, or free variable).

The most popular languages, outside of C and C++, cannot pass pointers. And, raw pointers are not ideal; they lose type safety, memory safety etc.

There are always canonical patterns for a given language to write a function like I did. I find them to be universally more complicated and less explicit/versatile than what I posted; they require code to permeate beyond the function signature.
The owner class treats their hackers of the financial system far better than they treat the truckers and warehouse stockers of the logistics system.
That's not an option for a lot of people. For example, the vast majority of physical shoe stores simply don't carry my size. There is literally only a handful of stores in my country I could go to - and I don't even have an incredibly unusual size!

Physical stores increasingly cater to the average. They would rather stock 20 different items in 5 sizes than 10 different items in 10 sizes. All of the long-tail stuff is only available online, so you are forced to buy online.
Does not mean that they deserve a specific fixed income...
Swappable batteries are a terrible idea.

1) Cars increasingly make batteries structural components. Swappable batteries are extremely hard to realize, as they need very complex mechanical constructions. Leading to even more expensive EVs.

2) Infrastructure is the largest challenge in adoption. Swapping infrastructure is far more complex than charging infrastructure. Reach anxiety can be counteracted by a dense grid of chargers. A grid of battery swap stations is necessarily thinner than a charging grid. Each station is more expensive and needs more maintenance.

Swappable batteries make the two problems EVs are facing worse. No serious company should consider them and no infrastructure for them should be financed.
I have just sent you an email. Thank you Tim!
It took almost 30 years to get here. I never thought I'd see the day.

What really threw me for a loop is the article author mentions: "I knew plenty of professors who were bothered by [the public static void main thing]." I could have sworn that OOP die-hards in academia _wanted_ the formal class boilerplate in the original design. Maybe they aged out? Perhaps, times are changing.
Daniel Bernstein is not the creator of libsodium. Libsodium is based on his work on <https://nacl.cr.yp.to/> which is not the same.
Mh, balance that ball on your finger while keeping it in spin or dribble it between your legs while spinning your body around and see how many conscious decisions you make while not stepping into canine feces.
>You are massively understating the difficulty of finding candidates willing to get a security clearance, and the cost to the company of sponsoring those clearances.

I find this hard to believe. I'd totally get a security clearance, but no company seemingly offers it, they only want people who have a pre-existing clearance.
An alternative is aider that can edit multiple files at once. It performs a git commit after each changes which drove me nuts and didn't fit into my workflow. With cursor you decide when to commit to git which i like better.

You are skeptical but we __do__ have antitrust laws, even though people in power probably opposed them in several ways at different points in time.
I'm not denying that, I'm saying it's not a difficult challenge to solve when u compare it to the others I mentioned.
I totally agree. Coincidentally my son keeps some isopods as a sort of hobby in a terrarium, and yeah, I do find it hard to see them as quite the same.

Your latter point is a very important one. I think of intelligence as a very tenuous, fragile thing. We can barely utilize it the ways we intend to, and it isn't a guard-rail against all kinds of bad behaviour. It's almost useless to us in all kinds of common scenarios, or barely accessible. We get enraged, drunk, turned on, depressed, etc. and suddenly these faculties are barely function in the ways we need them to be.

So, it becomes much easier to forgive people for making mistakes. You begin to realize we're holding onto this potential by a thread most of the time, not wielding it like a trusted tool. The more you observe this, the more it's a wonder anything works at all.
I totally understand your take, but as a guy that spends most of his time on side projects working on single HTML files, I have a different perspective.

I find the totally self-contained nature of them very appealing because it travels well through space and time, and it's incredibly accessible, both online and offline.

My current side project is actually using a WebDAV server to host a wide variety of different single HTML file apps that you can carry around on a USB drive or host on the web. The main trick to these apps is the same trick that TiddlyWiki uses, which is to construct a file in such a way that it can create an updated copy of itself and save it back to the server.

I'm attracted to this approach because it's a way to use relatively modern technologies in a way that is independent from giant corporations that want to hoover up all my data, while also being easy to hack and modify to suit my needs on a day-to-day basis.
thats fine, I dont think the amount should be regulated to match the good it provides. I just claim that it provides some good for the world, whereas equities does not.
That might be what you see but during your rush shifts you're looking at 10+ at places like McDonalds with 6-7 during less busy shifts and those 6-7 people are busting their asses. Churn has also jumped way-up post-COVID. A bunch of once-reliable food service workers moved up the labor value chain and left the industry and this has left the F&B industry with some pretty major staffing problems.
The teaming up concept is very interesting. I wonder if there's a matchmaking startup idea to help people do this.
does it work for you on a film? 'magick' isn't a command on my install. I can run montage but get

Yes, I have tried both and AVP is a leap ahead.
There are browsers which randomize such fingerprints such as Brave. The web page does not have any insight into your hardware that you cannot mitigate by having the browser fake the responses.

You can also use Linux features such as namespaces & TUN's[1] to properly utilize proxies. Something I noticed is that Chrome under --proxy-server=socks5:// is incapable of using HTTP3 (UDP) for example, perhaps a deliberate oversight.
