I had the same experience and suggest a loading progress bar of some sort. I also didn't see any of the Selenium process on their Github so can't see exactly how the tweets are processed for plain text cleaning. The Twitter/x API is so priced out of the market these types of work arounds are necessary inconveniences so thanks to the dev for putting this together!
There are preprints for all the papers [https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.01.20.576352v1], they're operationally the same.

How were they not noticed before? Well that's how science works. Someone eventually has to be the one to notice something is going on right?

I think it's a common fallacy that we, as a species, are not ignorant to the complexity of Nature. The hardest part is to see it.
Even without malice or incompetence you will have false positives and false negatives. Then when you attempt to correct the mistake you will have false positives and false negatives again.
the most important thing here seems to be that the fraudulent claims were retracted by the person who sent them, and the statement from nintendo that the claims were not legitimate.

but it's not true that youtube won't do anything about false claims. both the DMCA and youtube's pseudo-dmca takedown process care that about the identity of the person making the claim. if you claim "i am an authorized agent for Nintendo of America" and that's not true, then they'll throw out your claim. as long as you are who you say you are and are an authorized representative of the company you claim to represent, then google tends to trust you even if you're claiming ownership of content you don't actually own.

ReddAPI: The Simplest Way to Access Reddit's Data
I’m excited to share something we’ve been working on: ReddAPI.online, a lightweight, developer-friendly API for Reddit.

Reddit is a goldmine of insights and real-time discussions, but interacting with its official API can sometimes feel like overkill, especially for smaller projects or developers who just need quick access to public Reddit data. That’s where ReddAPI comes in.

What is ReddAPI?

-------------------

ReddAPI is a simplified RESTful API that lets you:

1. Search for Reddit posts and comments.

2. Fetch posts by subreddit, user, or keyword.

3. Retrieve trending subreddits or top posts across categories.

4. It’s designed to remove friction for devs who don’t want to go through OAuth, rate-limit hoops, or parse redundant data structures. Instead, you can retrieve Reddit data in minutes with just an API key.

Why we built this:

-------------------

I’ve worked on a few side projects where I wanted Reddit data—but each time, the barrier of using Reddit’s official API (setting up tokens, and complying with strict usage guidelines) slowed me down. ReddAPI was born out of a desire for a simpler tool that prioritizes ease of use and speed for developers working on prototypes, research, or small apps.

- Features:

-------------------

1. Instant Setup: No OAuth dance required—just an API key.

2. Lightweight Responses: Clean, minimal JSON outputs for the most common use cases.

3. Rate-Limit Friendly: Generous limits that scale with usage.

4. Free Tier: Start for free with plenty of monthly requests to experiment.

- How it works:

-------------------

1. Visit ReddAPI.online and sign up for an API key.

2. Use simple GET requests like /posts?subreddit=technology&limit=10.

3. Get clean, structured data with minimal hassle.

Who is it for?

-------------------

1. Developers building bots, dashboards, or data visualizations.

2. Researchers analyzing Reddit content trends.

3. Hobbyists exploring Reddit’s discussions without diving deep into the official API docs.

What’s next?

-------------------

1. Historical data snapshots for subreddit trends.

2. Webhooks for real-time updates on new posts or comments.

3. Expanded filters and sorting options.

Check it out at ReddAPI.online and let us know what you think. I’d love to hear your thoughts, questions, or ideas for improvement.

Looking forward to your feedback!
A "correct" implementation would give you a temporary IAM role or something (STS) based on a JWT or other authn mechanism.

This is not that difficult if you're already invested in an identity ecosystem, but a right pain without something to bootstrap it.

On the plus side, AWS creds can be made to be temporary and limited in scope to just the nouns/verbs required. Creating and vending those tokens is an exercise for the reader.
Or semi-automated scammers trying to claim the ad revenue from videos for themselves.
Not if the compression scheme is lossless, which it is here, per my previous comment.
You forgot 'sell more'.
The whole argument is silly.

The goodness of license is not determined how developers understand the text. The goodness of license is determined how it is interpreted in the courts. There are good websites who explain and different licenses to developers or help them to choose. If still not clear, ask software lawyer to explain details. https://choosealicense.com/

Analogy with code. Code should be simple and easy to understand, but it's more important to execute correctly, including all special cases. The microprocessor or interpreter is the "court" for code writing. The good license covers all cases and uses phraseology with well-defined meanings and existing interpretations. Legal contracts often have an ambiguity that is reduced when it is tested in court. The more it is tested, the better you know what it means.

GPL and MPL are very different types of copyleft. MPL is weak copyleft bound to individual files. It's simple because it does simple things. If that's enough go for it. But don't complain when someone uses it according to the permissions the license gives.
if you can detect them, maybe feed them low iq stuff from a small llama. add latency to waste their time.
"Yeah, duh if it's in a restricted area. That's not what the drone hysteria is about."

Look up TFRs. Look up all the other restrictions these drones are supposed to be following. Tell me how they're legal.

"Uhh yeah if a consumer grade drone falls 300 feet out of the sky then yes it's destroyed."

Not irreparably. Some components will.

Interesting - do you have a link?
I think you're leaving out a few obvious ones to force the duopoly narrative.

> Lowe’s or Home Depot

Harbor Freight, random local lumber yards

> Cox or Centurylink

Comcast. A few others too. Usually you only have one choice though. Dish if you're talking about TV instead of internet, various phone company offerings if you're talking about internet.

> Ford or Chevy

There's more auto companies than I can count, particularly if you include all the foreign brands sold in America, which you should because some of them are very popular and are broadly recognized to have superior vehicles.

> * Kroger or Walmart, *

Giant, Food Lion, Aldis, Target, Wholefoods, Trader Joes, more regionals than you can shake a stick at.
If the two ALUs could feed results into each other, that would make things really interesting, especially when you consider the way it would affect reordering.

Imagine if the OP's benchmark had two of those multiplication chains on independent registers:

mul x1, x0, x0 // a
mul x2, x1, x1 // b
mul x3, x2, x2 // c
mul x4, x3, x3 // d

mul x6, x5, x5 // e
mul x7, x6, x6 // f
mul x8, x7, x7 // g
mul x9, x8, x8 // h

If you had two independent ALUs, my intuition is that you'd want to dispatch the instructions as AEBFCGDH, interleaving the two chains.

But, if the two ALUs could feed each other, perhaps you'd actually want to leave it in ABCDEFGH order? Hmm.
how do you determine that they know the content of the honeypot?

I've been running some of the larger models (like Llama 405B) via CPU on a Dell R820. It's got 32 Xeon's (4 chips), and 256 GB RAM. I bought it used for around $400. The memory is NUMA, so it makes sense if the computing is done on local data, not sure if Ollama supports that.

The tokens per second is very slow though, but at least it can execute it.

I think the future will be increasingly more powerful NPU's built into future CPU's. That will need to paired with higher bandwidth memory, maybe HBM, or silicon photonics for off chip memory.
Some of these ai companies are so aggressive they are essentially dos’ing sites offline with their request volumes.

Don’t we now know with 100% certainty the sugar lobby in America seriously manipulated the dietary guidelines?
It is true for emerging technology such as drugs and devices, but doesnt figure in for most healthcare like getting a broken bone fixed or childbirth.
I know Kaiser doctors. They mostly like it at least in Norcal. They said Socal Kaiser wasn't as good. My own Kaiser doctor said that Kaiser has been pushing more and more work on her like taking notes, etc, and it's frustrating but as far as I can tell it's a lot better than dealing with insurance companies. She gives me everything I request, like endoscopy, MRI, CT scan, blood tests, prescriptions, etc. The only time I was rejected was when I asked to see if blood sugar monitor could be covered but that was rejected because I'm only pre-diabetic and not diabetic.
Does that include the 20 minutes it takes to smoke a cigarette? So, the net loss could be 40 minutes?
This sounds pretty elegant but I don't think it's correct.

I don't have a good sense for what the R&D required to spin up a new bespoke sensor is, but I think it's sort of high - I assume there's a reason Nikon seem to source most of their sensors from Sony. Assuming you get to use a custom sensor for your camera, you also lose a bit of sensitivity at the "fovea."

Also, Nikon's own press release also refer specifically to an "optical lens system with both telephoto and wide-angle lens functions," which leads me to believe this isn't an innovation at the sensor level.
Before we all watched the movie, "Who was the idiot that picked Daniel Craig as Bond".

After we watched it "Who was the genius that picked Daniel Craig?"

Now I miss him. Often thinking if Tom cruise could do so many MI, I am sure Daniel Craig could do just one more Bond.
Honestly the more I use ChatGPT, the more I see of their "moat-ish" opportunities. While the LLM itself may be ultimately reproducible, the user experience needs a UI/UX wrapper for most users. The future is not user exposure to "raw" LLM interactions but rather a complex workflow whereby a question goes through several iterations of agents, deterministic computation using "traditional" processing, and figuring out when to use what and have it all be seamless. ChatGPT is already doing this but it's still far from where it needs to be. It's totally possible for a company to dominate the market if they're able to orchestrate a streamlined user experience. Whether that will ultimately be OpenAI is an open question.
Well the "good guy with a gun" argument presumes the good guy is willing to use his gun and probably risk his own life doing it. This would happen more easily if he's already inside and under direct threat by the bad guy(s).

A cop outside is not obligated or expected to put his own life at risk. He's expected to show up for work tomorrow.
And yet we see a lot of instances in free market economies. If you're going to talk Marxism, address actual criticisms (of which there are plenty) and not reactive Red Scare-type boogeymen.
1. It is a moral victory: at least they won't use your own text.

2. As a sibling proposes, this is probably going to become an perpetual arms race (even if a very small one in volume) between tech-savvy content creators of many kinds and AI companies scrapers.
The Bluesky Conundrum
The Forty Year Programmer [video]
Exactly the type of apps people would sideload. Little things that somehow violate App Store rules abusing APIs, lying about app capability, just being ethically dubious.

Use flash to create seizures, nudity people realtime, hack your ex, damage the device, cheat at games, spam your enemies, etc.

There is an infinite use case for tiny malicious apps finding malicious or gullible users and with side loading there are going to be stores created to appear very legitimate when their intentions are actually illegal.

I think the EU has very noble intentions while completely failing to understand that society is a wreck and a lot of money is made through extortion and fraud. Their apparent fix is to make the OS developers still responsible for what is installed while taking away funding for it. I am guessing the end game is more taxes and government intrusion on private devices to fix the problems they are purposely creating.
Healthcare software is incredibly resilient against bottom-up replacement.

Huge feature lists, high standards for correctness, strict regulations, existing long-term contracts.

It's like the space industry before SpaceX. Everyone knows the incumbent is inefficient, but you can't compete without building the whole damn rocket.
Indeed. But it’s on me to manage it. There ought to be a way to tell my computer, once, the name of a token.
there are two parts to the last 50 years. before the Berlin wall (including the two decade after), and after that. once the threat of communist revolution was solved, Western oligarchs and eastern ones were no longer that different.

They will definitely throw more resources at it, but without even older equipment from the west, they have a bigger hill to climb as well. There are lots of material engineering secrets that they have to uncover before they get there, so that’s just my estimate of what they need to do it. I definitely could be wrong though, we’ll see.
Having two in the same house is a pretty bad compromise. Ideally you'll want one of them to be physically somewhat distant (in case of a fire etc.), which makes things even less ergonomic.

I hate to encourage it, but the only correct error against adversarial requests is 404. Anything else gives them information that they'll try to use against you.
But zooming is lens selection (if implemented like that). I don't want to be bothered with zooming. A full frame of each sensor, pick and crop later.

I want to point the side with the cameras at whatever I want to take a picture of, hit the release button and move on. All that careful framing? That might be enjoyable to do ahead of time if you take pictures of carefully arranged flower bouquets or something like that, but that's very far from many of the use cases of the always-at-hand camera. Give me ultrawide, tele and whatever exists in between at a single press of a button and let me go back to whatever I was doing while the desire to persist a visual situation came up. Memory is cheap, selection is a chore but one that can be done time-shifted. I'm not suggesting to take away your ahead of time framing, I'm just longing for an option to simply read them all (sequentially, if necessary). Perhaps even throw in a readout of the selfie-cam for good measure.
The only difference is that hitler started younger and faster because he didn't have such a fertile ground for such things as russia is.

It's not that civility is thin layer over savagery.

Instead savagery is the underlying foundation of civility, held back savagery is what makes civility possible.
No clear ideas. But I would not be surprised if a dozen labs have jumped at the chance of trying to figure it out. So wait a year and ask again.

Edit: Or better yet, try and figure it out for yourself. The tools to do this analysis are available to everyone.
> Pianos from hundreds of years ago didn't play exactly like a modern piano, so there may have been an intermediary step where the original piece was modified to work on a modern piano when the sheet music went to print.

This is preposterous.
Presuming the software is implemented correctly, that can't happen (per the definition of "lossless"). I can imagine this happening with a careless implementation, e.g. if circumstances conspire to allow a slightly different version or configuration of the LLM to be used across compression and decompression.
To a first approximation, the small apps don't matter because they're small.

If that doesn't work, set up a deposit requirement like Apple wanted for the 3rd party stores and then walked back. Do something wrong, lose the deposit and the entitlements.

There does seem to be some way. I'm relatively sure I've seen keys pre-labeled with the name of my password manager in the past.

Some sites make bad assumptions, though, e.g. labeling every passkey I create as "iCloud Keychain" (because my user agent tells them I'm on macOS, and they assume that it must be that then).
it was utopia. everywhere on the planet that was not the west. that cultural stagnation and backwardness could attract parasitic imperialism , if you hike at the foot of the exponential mountains , who could have known .. certainly not the culture that had all the greek scripts and did nothing with them but slavery and local imperialism. That history of half truths doesn't hold water anymore. We have colonized countries colonize the middle east now. Get new material or get of the stage .

I don't have a copy in front of me but throughout the book there are many comments made against modern society and some of the examples that she gives are clearly 'set up' to be against growth. I didn't realize she also wrote Limits to Growth and according to wikipedia, used some of that work and was edited by an org called the Sustainability Institute which explains it.

That misses the point because it doesn't matter. If you need somebody to host your content then they own your content, the corresponding account, and the distribution of that content and absolutely everything else that touches the platform.

Some people need to broadcast on these platforms because the are super strong at marketing, but not strong enough at anything else, and so they are doomed to these kinds of repeated inevitable failures. Its hard to have sympathy for that when absolutely everybody knows that going in, but nonetheless they will ask for sympathy because they can't be bothered with an alternative.

In my experience this behavior is due to the fact that they don't really know on the insurance side how the care provider is going to code something until they have actually done the procedure and have submitted it with the coding. And there is a very high wall between the insurance/patient billing side and the care providers, even in a case like Kaiser where they're all employees of the same company.

As a GM, if a player reaches for the X card for any reason I'm obliged to stop and listen.

According to Darknet Diaries there are gangs that focus on backup server first, because with backups in place ransomware is not as effective. There are examples of backup software companies being compromised to get to their clients.

Yes, but with an attacker having advantage because it directly improves their own product even in the absence of this specific motivation for obfuscation: any Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart can be used to improve the output of an AI by requiring the AI to pass that test.
