As someone who worked for the world's largest trade book publisher a decade ago, let me tell you that dealing with Amazon is the worst. They squeeze publishers' profit margins to the absolute minimum, and they aggressively force them to accept terrible deals because they have the upper hand.

Amazon has been horrible for the book industry. Please buy your books elsewhere!
I would be very interested in "stray inductance and capacitance" are meant to produce a 5mA flow out of your circuit.

Or let's phrase it like that: If the proper cables are used and if the wiring isn't absolute dogshit next to other absolute dogshit the cited reason isn't the reason.

Try to induce 5mA of foreign circuit into a cable on purpose and you will see what I mean. Measuring equipment exists so we don't need to guess here..

The issue is more that manufactureres calculated with a 30mA threshold for ages and if they did a bad job, they produced equipment that just barely made that threshold. Typically such norm changes are known well ahead, I am more familar with European norms, but changes like these are known a decade ahead.

So it isn't as if manufacturers of such equipment are suddenly surprised by new regulations. And if the new rule starts to work that should only affect newly built unints (or units where the electrical installation is renewed). So if your EV charger trips the GFCI because of bad electrical wiring, thr wiring likely had to be replaced due to new norms anyways..

Why the thresholds for different areas differ is usually a mix of historical reasons, lobbying and a "we didn't get around to that yet". It is hard to answer such questions in isolation, maybe marine equipment has other maintenance cycles, crazier cabling requirements, maybe there are fire suppression measures that allow to relax that requirement more, maybe it doesn't make sense at all.

As someone who has read through nearly 100 GB of norm PDFs I can assure you that just comparing two thresholds in isolation is practically worthless if you ignore the other differences in the rules.

This is equally dressed up, just in different clothing.

Also from Mill:

> We have a right, also, in various ways, to act upon our unfavourable opinion of any one, not to the oppression of his individuality, but in the exercise of ours. We are not bound, for example, to seek his society; we have a right to avoid it (though not to parade the avoidance), for we have a right to choose the society most acceptable to us. We have a right, and it may be our duty, to caution others against him, if we think his example or conversation likely to have a pernicious effect on those with whom he associates. We may give others a preference over him in optional good offices, except those which tend to his improvement. In these various modes a person may suffer very severe penalties at the hands of others, for faults which directly concern only himself; but he suffers these penalties only in so far as they are the natural, and, as it were, the spontaneous consequences of the faults themselves, not because they are purposely inflicted on him for the sake of punishment.

I'm not a cryptographer, nor am I good with math (actually I suck badly; consider yourself warned...), but am I curious about how threatened password hashes should feel if the 'AI juggernauts' suddenly fancy themselves playing on the red team, so I quickly did some (likely poor) back-of-the-napkin calculations.

'Well known' password notwithstanding, let's use the following as a password:

correct-horse-battery-staple

This password is 28 characters long, and whilst it could be stronger with uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters, it still shirtfronts a respectable ~1,397,958,111 decillion (1.39 × 10^42) combinations for an unsuspecting AI-turned-hashcat cluster to crack. Let's say this password was protected by SHA2-256 (assuming no cryptographic weaknesses exist (I haven't checked, purely for academic purposes)), and that at least 50% of hashes would need to be tested before 'success' flourishes (lets try to make things a bit exciting...).

I looked up a random benchmark for hashcat, and found an average of 20 gigahashs/second (GH/s) for a single RTX 4090.

If we throw 100 RTX 4090s at this hashed password, assuming a uniform 20 GH/s (combined firepower of 2,000 GH/s) and absolutely perfect running conditions, it would take at least eleven-nonillion-fifty octillion (1.105 x 10^31) years to crack. Earth will be long gone by the time that rolls around.

Turning up the heat (perhaps literally) by throwing 1,000,000 RTX 4090s at this hashed password, assuming the same conditions, doesn't help much (in terms of Earth's lifespan): two-octillion-two-hundred-ten septillion (2.21 x 10^27) years.

Using some recommended password specifications from NIST - 15 characters comprised of upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and special characters - lets try:

dXIl5p*Vn6Gt#BH

Despite the higher complexity, this password only just eeks out a paltry ~ 41 sextillion (4.11 × 10^22) possible combinations. Throwing 100 RTX 4090s at this password would, rather worryingly, only take around three hundred twenty-six billion seven hundred thirteen million two hundred seventeen thousand (326,713,217,000) years to have a 50% chance of success. My calculator didn't even turn my answer into a scientific number!

More alarming still, is when 1,000,000 RTX 4090s get sic'ed on the shorter hashed password: around thirty-two million six hundred seventy-one thousand (32,671,000) years to knock down half of this hashed password's strength.

I read a report that suggested Microsoft aimed to have 1.8 million GPUs by the end of 2024. We'll probably be safe for at least the next six months or so. All bets are off after that.

All I dream about is the tital wave of cheap high-performance GPUs flooding the market when the AI bubble bursts, so I can finally run Farcry at 25 frames per second for less than a grand.
I don't understand how it's a drama. It's an old spec, it's easy to follow, it's standard, and you can still keep compact with the old .dir at user root if you want.

What's the big deal ?

It is interesting how France became so focused on analysis and properly proving theorems and stuff, while the applications don't have the same highlight in prépa.

One professor of mine commented that most French engineers are better mathematicians than most mathematicians in Brazil.

It is the opposite of what the linked article mentions that was happening in Weierstrass' time.

The amount of scrutiny on Wuhan has been astronomical and they actually proved last year it was one of a handful of wild animals as the source of Covid-19. The infections started and were initially concentrated in the market, not the lab.

The Wuhan lab is a convenient conspiracy theory distraction. mRNA vaccines are miracle and I've been saying this from day one...

If any virus were to start kill kids, you'd all be lined up in milliseconds for the vaccine.

We got extremely lucky that Covid-19 left children out of its attack vector.

The next pandemic may not be so gracious.

The Spanish Flu in 1917-18 killed young and old in its first wave. Then the second wave it also took out 25-35yo adults. And if you got it, you were dead in 48 hours.

You people don't actually read anything and know nothing about why the CDC and Fauci acted as they did. They were expecting another Spanish Flu, and they got something very different. Different incubation time. Different attack vector. But they adapted and saved lives.

You're LUCKY those people knew what they were doing DESPITE Trump's actions. And he KNEW. He acted the way he did because he knew the proper action was to lock down everything and stop the spread, but he also knew that would destroy the economy. He traded a million lives in the U.S. for the economy.

You know every single Republican was vaccinated as soon as they got the chance. They just forgot to tell you.

StrongARM was DEC originally then developed into XScale at Intel when they acquired that division from Digital as part of a lawsuit settlement I believe.

The funny thing about the ARM performance/watts thing is that it wasn't originally a design goal except for the need to use a plastic rather than ceramic package to save money. They were aiming for 1 watt but ended up at 0.1 watt!

Is there a way to get a .com domain, or this is it?
I’ve been working on an app for about five months now, and every day I’ve been trying to come up with a name for it that has an available .com domain. It’s been nearly impossible. Either you spend $4,000 on a domain, or you settle for a name that doesn’t look great.

The real issue isn’t just the price or the name—it’s the process of finding a good .com domain. I had an idea, but I’m not sure if it’s feasible: an AI tool (LLM) that generates multiple name suggestions based on your input and automatically checks if the .com domains are available. I know there are some tools, like those on GoDaddy, that generate domain names, but they’re not very effective.

Or maybe that’s it for .com domains—we’ll just have to start using extensions like .ai or .co. What do you think?
I found the neovim community to operate a bit like the node ecosystem, you pull in a plugin for every problem that solves already solved problems their own way. The plugins are also very flashy with tons of animations, colors and emojis, which to me is just distracting. That said I think people should use what they like, and I am happy that there is a big community developing an alternative to VSCode. I just didn't feel it was for me.

I ended up moving to Kakoune. The community is small but the tool is so much better designed and integrates well with unix. That means that i can usually glue together whatever I need myself with 1-3 lines of config and don't need an entire plugin when I want something that isn't built-in.

OP, you're a whiny child yourself. The one thing that won't do anybody any good is infantile rage, except sadists might get some fleeting satisfaction from watching you suffer.

I've been a part of daily standup routines that were somewhat useful and some that weren't. Even in a good one, where some useful exchanges happen, most of the time is still wasted on irrelevant stuff. Best suggestion I have is to let each person speak if they have something to say, and otherwise we move on. Having the opportunity, with everyone present, is useful I think.

This does not strictly follow the formulaic Agile Standup, but agile is about "people over process" anyway, so you can tell that to the Agile Coach.

Trump just pardoned the core of an army of thugs that will be legally allowed to stow election chaos in every swing district in the country.

Watch. In the mid-terms there will be violence. Then possibly martial law. Then the end of our constitution.

Then Trump will have us all spying on each other to see who's loyal and people will just get murdered without consequence.

He will do everything in his power to become a dictator.
Yes, exactly. You can set --ctx-size to a smaller value if you know that you will not hit the limit of 32k - this will save you VRAM.

To control how much global context to keep in the ring buffer (i.e. the context that is being reused to enrich the local context), you can adjust the "ring_n_chunks" and "rink_chunk_size". With the default settings, this amounts to about 8k tokens of context on our codebases when the ring buffer is full, which is a conservative setting. Increasing these numbers will make the context bigger, will improve the quality but will affect the performance.

There are a few other tricks to reduce the compute for the local context (i.e. the 1k batch of tokens), so that in practice, a smaller amount is processed. This further saves compute during the prefill.
At this point I would consider that to be like 80% of Amazon without the markup on the crap.

> other F# script files

This is where it breaks down a bit.

Importing the same script file twice leads to errors, so you must manually ensure exactly once imports across your dependency tree of scripts.

This is where C/C++ code reaches for include guards, but F# does not have a define pre-processor command (unlike C#).
> Perhaps there's a way to do age verification while minimizing privacy risks? For example, verify their age, give them their credentials, then delete the PII?

I wonder why trusted third parties haven't sprung up around this very concept to the degree of OIDC (it's almost everywhere), you could have companies that allow uniquely identifying people, without having to manage or even get their PII directly.

Service wants to check age or whether user is banned --> they are redirected to some-identity-platform.com where they can deal with any ID documents and other PII --> some-identity-platform.com gives back a token and a UUID, so all the service really needs is a JSON object with the UUID and whether user is of age (if that was in scope).

That service can also let the user granularly choose what information to return: just the UUID, whether they're of age, or specific data like where they're located, actual PII if needed (e.g. auth with govt. site) etc., the UUIDs could also be service specific, so they cannot be cross referenced across different sites in case of leaks.

Things a bit like that exist, for example here's a few random ones:

https://www.jumio.com/
https://aws.amazon.com/rekognition/identity-verification/
https://www.veriff.com/
https://www.yoti.com/
https://ondato.com/

It does feel like the privacy problem could be solved in exactly these services, without passing too much information to the service itself. Because currently there are crazy amounts of hate and content out there that I might not want from a certain person on a site I operate, so I could just ban 914582c9-289a-4f8c-9e1c-f4193066e210 and the same person (at least with the same legal identity) could never get another account on my platform. I wouldn't even know that it's John Doe from country X and region Y that's uploading problematic content. Vice versa, I might just sell stuff to 5b9ee810-605b-40ce-9ead-85102e92df74 without ever risking compromising their identity.
I am curious what precisely this "legislative nonsense" is.

There seems to be some sort of consensus among legal teams of big American tech companies that the EU is sometimes not worth it for now since OpenAI are not the only one not offering some service in the EU (I'm thinking meta.ai).

Still I haven't been able to find information about what exactly prevents them from selling anything in the EU.
There's a lot of due diligence and background checks and other things that happen, that this framing glosses over, but given due diligence let FTX and Theranos through, it's easy to see why some would choose to see it that way. Still, thats just how the numbers work out. If you have $1,000,000 to blow, and you invest $100,000 at a time, and one pays off 100x, you're up $9 million. But if they all fail you're down to zero. If they all hit 100x, you'd be up $100 million!

So there is actually a lot of effort put in to try and only pick only the winners. It's just the fact of the matter is that there's just so much luck involved, on top of being good at business and sales and product development, that, as an investor, there's no such thing as a sure bet.

I thought about this idea too but the issue is that its only telling you if the domain is available or not. If someone is searching for a domain, their intent is to buy it most of the times, if your SaaS just provides search it aint going to be that great, unless you add the option to buy or redirect them to the website where they can buy the domain.

Sorry to give you another bad news, Godaddy's search for domain names is shit. Try namecheap Beastmode, literally thousands of possibilities, even adding suffixes prefixes what not. So that also defeats the purpose of a separate tool with good search.

What a nonsense article. I'm tempted to just reply "This is your brain on LLMs" but I'll try to be less snarky.

To me the most "almost magic" thing about hydrogen is that it's #1 on the periodic table. It's literally the minimum viable atom: 1 proton + 1 electron. And H2 is the minimum viable molecule: Join two of these atoms.

The consequence is that it's small and can do the magic trick of vanishing, buy getting through gaps that other molecules can't, even permeate solid metals (1)

Because of this, it's hard to work with, and won't be a general energy solution. You're right that hydrogen cars are not worth it. It will be used when you really need hydrogen specifically. But only then.

Sorry, I looked for it but it seems it's not easy to find mainstream newspaper articles about this. It seems this topic is heavily being censored. Which is interesting in it's own right. But it does also mean that I can't deliver all this information on a golden plate for you, and you'll have to do a little bit of research and analyzing and personal thinking, instead of just reading the headlines that the media is feeding you.

Watch the video, it really gives you might insight into the complexity of the situation, or at least how it was.
