Pointing at the ARIA spec as a way of writing code that’ll work with all assistive tech is like pointing at the HTML and CSS specs circa 2005 and saying that following them will make your site work in all browsers.
I call it the Toothpaste Dilemma: When you go to buy toothpaste, like Colgate or most brands, you're bombarded with so many options. It gets worse when you read the labels—everything seems either identical or has massive overlaps. It's frustrating and unnecessarily complicated.

I'm aware of the is-ought problem with my statement, but my point is that that is the role calves play when we want cow dairy products. The problem with it as it exists today is the barbarous nature of factory farming.
This author is either an idiot or does not understand the concept of precision.

It's very surprising that this article has engendered so much discussion...in support of what he is saying.

10:01:01 and 10:01:59 are both still 10:01, because a minute is a discrete unit of time. Rounding the minute to the next minute is simply wrong. Similarly, rounding to the next hour is also wrong and nobody does this except apparently the author. (Note: 15:48 is almost 1600 but is not 1600.) People might round to the nearest five or ten minutes for convenience (i.e., when reading an analog clock) but that hasn't been a thing since the switch to digital clocks.

I mean they do have "Air" and "Pro" monikers for the laptops, as well as a page dedicated to helping you choose which one to get - https://www.apple.com/mac/best-mac/ - so they're not using "consumer" or "enterprise" but it's still there.
Generally a good idea, but there are edge cases that need to be handled for this to work.

A copyrighted video might not be uploaded to YouTube, in which case you'd have to fall back on the video creation date, which would have to be manually added in their DB (e.g. Hollywood produced movies).

You can also have leaks of videos before their official release. Admittedly a rare scenario that should can be accounted for in other ways (i.e. skip this check if before upload).
Nice that they are admitting to perjury on twitter like that.

So, I have little ones too. And AI, to me, ends up being a tool. One that will very much help out.

However, the post brings up a good point: Education isn't cheap.

Looking through the history of pedagogy, 'teaching' has never been easy.

We managed to get around this, somewhat, in the developed world for about 150 years or so. Mostly to keep the factories working cheaply, but we also found out that an educated populace was a heck of a jolt for national security too. Not a bad run at all!

But industrial education still is expensive, about 30% or so of the budget for a US state (very rough % there).

Now, we've got AIs, and the methods we found in industrial education to make it a bit cheaper, well, they don't really work anymore.

There's gonna be this little gap period here with AIs where we have the old methods and new tech, and it's not going to go well. Education of the youth, yeah, that's still going to be a huge thing. But it's going to be a bit more expensive and messy for a while.

Fortunately, we do have AIs to help out with that and run through the processes faster, get to a 'good-ish' state of things again. But things like homework, essays, 500 person freshmen lectures, those little cheats short-cuts, those things aren't going to work anymore (and let's be honest, never really did anyway).

What will work? I don't know yet. But I think it will be even cheaper overall, and will decidedly not look like what we have today. No more prom kings, no more homecomings, no more lectures, no more homework. Things like A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer, sure, that's a given. But Starfleet Academy isn't going to be big on sitting down. I think it'll be more like away missions mixed in with some St. John's/Oxbridge approaches. A lot more teachers with a lot more training/AI help, that's for sure. And that's not cheap either.
You can buy plasmids and make whatever bacteria you want for a few decades now. AI may help, but it certainly doesn't cost $30k to cause mischief.Pretty sure I learned that in Bio 102
That is true, but the problem shows up even with open-ended tests. In my country, we generally don't use tests/quizzes, and nevertheless, every year, many students attempt to cheat – and some of them undoubtedly get away with it.

Regardless, I agree, attempting to assess the progress of a cheater is a fool's errand.
"Here's 5 bullet points, go home and use ChatGPT to generate an essay, then bring that essay to class, and then we'll discuss why it's shit. and then we'll work on corrections during class. Bonus points if I can't tell if you used ChatGPT or not."
In this case I think it's the polemics which are the problem, not the politics.

It's fine if people don't want polemics, rancor, bad faith, all that nonsense, but those aren't unique to political threads. Being opposed to politics per se is just personal taste, and arguing about matters of personal taste doesn't make for insightful or interesting reading.

Also, and maybe more pertinently, the train has kind of left the station. People want to talk politics, they're going to talk politics, and no one is going to stop them from talking politics. Dang tried to ban politics entirely once and it was a disaster. Asking people to just stop posting political threads is as useless as asking people to stop posting about AI.
Driving any car like that will result in increased stress on components and wear. A lot of EVs have high-end sports-car levels of acceleration, and those aren’t known for being low-maintenance.
For years I had optometrists tell me that I'd be facing presbyopia soon and after a decade of hearing about I finally got it. Because I am both a jock and a nerd I was advised to have two sets of glasses. I have great vision for detail on screens now and particularly enjoy the 3D effects on the Nintendo 3DS with reading glasses.

Now the 4K screen on my "gaming laptop" is beautiful for ordinary use and sucks for games.

I found I would just get hit by people in League of Legends and it seemed there was nothing I could do about it. I hooked up a monitor and displayed a clock on the screen and got a photo that said (something like) 1:05:03.000 on on the laptop screen and 1:05:03.030 on the attached monitor, an extra 30 ms of latency. I switched to an external monitor and started to win.

Most people claim that display latency doesn't matter for 1-player games but I've found there are many titles like Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet where I struggle on my Samsung TV when it isn't in game mode.
Trump is just throwing out every threat he can. There's simply no realistic way to unilaterally take Canada, or the canal, or Greenland.

I don't see how it's odd at all. The kinds of changes that would stabilize housing and make growth more sustainable would threaten the interests of many wealthy people, including politicians themselves.
As I said, there have been challenges to the rule and it’s currently under injunction.

However, if you talk to any corporate attorney they will tell the company to prepare and position itself for having to comply with the ban.

If you’re an employee with a current non-compete, assume it applies unless you consult with an attorney.

If you’re a prospective employee, and a job offer includes signing a contract with a restrictive non-compete.. personally I’d redline it, and if they pushed back I’d find another job.
The amendment process is slow and complex by design. It's not just a one-off supermajority, but rather a supermajority in both houses of Congress (or a special amending convention) followed by a supermajority of states each individually ratifying a proposed amendment. The most recent constitutional amendment took over 200 years to be ratified.

The nature of the process makes it very difficult to misuse constitutional amendments a mechanism for implementing policy to deal with ephemeral controversies or emotion-laden causes. The only time that really happened was with the 18th amendment, and that was a disaster, which ultimately was repealed.
None of what you've said disproves the fact that it is possible to estimate race.

You might not think it's a good idea, and it might be very unreliable, but you can't totally do it.
First, it's important to understand that Bitcoin is fundamentally a protocol, not a piece of software. Bitcoin Core is merely the most widely used implementation of that protocol.

Second, would you apply the same line of reasoning to other popular open-source projects, such as Linux or PostgreSQL? Do you believe that those projects are equally insecure?
Maybe they can go on a hunt for WMDs in the great white north???
I worry about the same thing. Even with traditional tools people mess it up all the time. It's in the same way too, treating your algorithms like black boxes. To really do data analysis you have to understand your data and understand what you're algorithms are doing/what they mean. Too often people just naively plug in numbers and take a result. Unfortunately it's not that easy. I work "AI" just accelerates this problem and brings it to more domains
Such typewriters were used by business, not students or individuals at home. Those machines cost several thousand dollars in today's dollars, just to put a perspective on things. Whereas a "normal", manual typewriter cost several hundred dollars in today's dollars. Most of us therefore had a manual typewriter. Touch typing was out of the question! Let alone any fancy-schmancy word processing!

Boy, oh boy were the early gen word processors a godsend!

> I'm not on the pulse of Canadian politics

Why do people do this? You don't keep up with Canadian politics and you don't know what led Trudeau to this point, yet you're glad he's gone? Is it not OK anymore to just not have opinions either way, and people have to take a stance on everything?
That seems pretty outlandish. Are you able to provide a source for that?
How Unfair Is the Coin: Lessons from Building a Biotech Startup
It's an AI generated taco smoking beer, I don't think it really needs defense. If I were to create such an illustration for my blog from scratch, I'd probably use that to communicate abusurdism in a light-hearted manner. I'd also probably make the hand-hooves consistent or at least plausibly cartoon-logic. At the very least it would mean:

* The taco holding the beer glass to its lips and sipping on it to smoke it

* Consistent eye shapes (likely the eyes would be closed to smoke the beer)

* Better bokeh for the elements in the background (if that is the stylistic choice I'd go for)

* Have the smoke coming out of the beer, not out of the taco "taco smoking beer"

* Stylize the image such that it has individual flair, there's something about the Apple Intelligence artstyle that just has an unperson corporate vibe that I don't like.

* The levity comes from "hey tacos don't have faces, hooves, arms, or legs and you can't smoke a beer", this would be used to communicate absurdism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absurdism, specifically by means of the taco smoking a beer whilst holding it in its hooves

Maybe I've just been exposed to way more AI imagery than you, but guacamole does not look like that in the image. There's more fever dream images that I have locally, but I didn't want to saturate my article with them and haven't fully implemented "image gallery" support yet.

And yes, a cartoon is normally meant to communicate something, quite literally the definition of soulful. Look at this for example: https://bsky.app/profile/yasomi.xeiaso.net/post/3ldgzieehjc2... When I made it, I was trying to communicate a lo-fi peaceful vibe accentuated through traditional artstyles. In a more finished piece I'd probably recreate this through watercolor in Procreate and apply a bokeh effect (emulating the depth of field for a subject with forward light being looked at from an 85mm portrait lens at about f/2.8).

The point of art is to communicate something. If a work does not communicate something, it is categorically not art.

The right also had incumbent disadvantage this year. See:

- Britain's Tory defeat.

- India's and Hungary's main party still winning, but by less than expected. India's main party no longer holds a majority in Parliament.

- In South Korea, the liberal opposition has won the majority of seats in the National Assembly.

Even in developing countries, incumbent disadvantage is almost everywhere. Look at the map in https://abcnews.go.com/538/democrats-incumbent-parties-lost-.... And in a couple examples where the majority gained (Mexico, Dominican Republic, Moldova) they are the left.

Which often happens in the US as well. I recall having to wait 3 months to get in to see a gastroenterologist about 10 years ago. People living in rural areas of the US often face this so it's not like it's a problem exclusive to Canada or other countries with universal healthcare.
Really appreciate the summary! As a Canadian these things feel very obvious but since most of this site is from the US this should help the conversation a lot.
As others have said, this came after historically significant low popularity and mounting political pressures. His government faced criticism over falling poll numbers, by-election losses, and a broken agreement with the NDP. Tensions with the US and internal dissent within the Liberal party added to his challenges.

One of the final nails in the coffin was the resignation of Chrystia Freeland, his last standing ally and Finance Minister.

This video from CBC a couple weeks ago on Freeland explains the rifts in Trudeau's government well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SuZTLWNlpc
I dont think there would be a military intervention, and if there were, I dont think it would be verry successful. NATO would be crippled without the US.

That said, of course it isnt worth it for the US.
I remember hearing that the Susan B Anthony dollar coin failed because there was no extra position in the coin drawer of cash registers to put it in. Can you image if every cash drawer now has to be redesigned to have different sized bills?

(I know, I know, it's not actually that big a deal. The drawers have removable inserts, but you get the point of it.)

(actually, on second though, automatic bill readers in vending machines, etc. would need a big retrofitting, that's probably much more a big deal).

CT scans were bad too. Everyone I knew just drove to New York to get diagnostic scan and dental work done at the time.

But even then: Ontario has 15 million people and 124 machines? NYC has 8 million residents and 470 machines.
I don’t know how, but I would love more than anything to replace my phone with this device. It looks like it can use a SIM card and Bluetooth—maybe with VOIP and a Bluetooth headset, this could completely replace my phone. TL;DR: I hate smartphones; they’re dumb.
If the rest of the world refused to trade with the US over this, the US would have a helluva time and struggle. No bullets need to be expended.

Why is this hard to comprehend?
naming aside, Dell (and other PC manufacturers) split enterprise from consumer for a number of reasons that make sense to me. the two markets have different requirements. enterprise needs a different OS license for one. Buying a fleet of X hundred or thousand devices vs one PC introduces concerns and requirements that home users just don't have and shouldn't pay for imho.
Even if they achieve it, the reputational damage would be hard to understate. I think anyone with a bone to pick with the States would happily and repeatedly point to us Canadians as an example of what happens when you trust Americans. And that would be enough to achieve a lot of their regional policy goals, if not much more. Mexico would probably seek other political partners to make sure they're not next.
Fortunate for him, he benefit from all his coworkers having a pu lic reputation for packing heat even though he didn't approve of it himself. The criminals who might otherwise try to take advantage of him wouldn't know that he was unarmed, but would be wary of truckers in general.

Fair enough - in which case the Mint just needs to pad the sale price a bit to cover interchange fees, and make a little extra on top, and shipping can be extra. 10% on top of the face value should be more than enough, and would have the side effect of sapping any would be manufactured spend. Yet the prices on the Mint are way above that - it looks like more than 50%. Sure, if the novelty or collector market values it at that premium, great. What I struggle to understand is that this is primarily to combat manufactured spend. I still don't see why manufactured spend is a problem for the Mint to solve, rather than the credit card companies.

Early word-processing software changed very little of that - the problem was cultural, not technological. Big offices had a typing pool where professional typists would type up memos and documents. It took a while for that culture to change where people realized they could, and should, do their own typing. Small business led the way because they couldn't afford a dedicated typing pool.

Long time ago I was doing around £0.75 ( roughly today's $1 USD ) per day on food. At the time it was may be closer to $1.4 USD given how British Pounds have depreciated.

Now I looked at those food cost number, I cant help but think certain Food in US are relatively cheap. ( Edit: Ok I only realise it is 2016 ).

It was hard, and not getting enough nutrients. Although I dont believe I have much of a choice at the time.

I wish we could have meal plans for different region across the world, where we have meals and ingredients for nutritious food with the smallest budget.

I really like Food. And out of all the important things in life Food and Water is number one on the list. But it is also the most neglected. Not a single Tech Billionaires invested or moved into Food industry.
I have a friend who’s a scholar of history at Oxford. They do a lot of 1-on-1 tutoring with students, and he makes his students stand and read out their essays to him.

As you seem to be well aware, that's only true on iOS, not Android. It's Apple's fault that their users can't install apps from companies that don't have a business relationship with Apple, not the government's. (Except perhaps to the extent that the government has allowed Apple to get away with having such user-freedom-destroying restrictions in the first place, but that's an entirely different discussion.)
