Unlike its counter-parts like Python, Javascript or Ruby programming languages and it's ecosystem that keep evolving at frantic pace, Java and ecosystem doesn't and hasn't changed dramatically. What is more worrisome is that most of the Java teams haven't caught up with its own contemporary toolset. This post is a list of tools that I think your teams should be using for profit from developer's productivity.
Capital One did a great job shaking up consumer credit in the late 90s, and then branch banking in the mid 2000s with their weird combination cafe+branches. They're eighth in the US by domestic deposits today. Does the firm need to be headquartered in Silicon Valley for disruption to have occurred?
California democrats literally made it illegal to show ID in elections. Not just "Voter ID" but literally driver licenses.

Hi, thank you for checking out the project!

The floating windows function processes all callable objects defined in the extensions package as text-handling functions.

This repository provides the backbone structure that makes it all possible. Users only need to add their custom logic as a Python callable in the format (input_text: str, *kwargs) -> str anywhere within the extensions package!

For example, implementing an OpenAI call is as simple as defining a function like this:

https://github.com/sharingan-no-kakashi/orange-intelligence/...

The function should accept a string as input and return a string as output, containing the proper implementation (e.g., HTTP calls, prompts, etc.). It's straightforward and intentionally left minimal.

Everyone is welcome to contribute, add their requirements, and customize the code to fit their specific needs with Orange Intelligence.
What does the inclusion of the move to Texas actually have to do with the downfall of the company?

I get that it is the original title, but even the article itself points out that the company was in dire straits well before the move.

The move (and forced relocation of employees) was likely a way to force attrition, since it was followed fairly quickly with layoffs elsewhere.

If anything, including mention of the move in the title just muddles the readers' expectations of the article, IMHO, and the article would be better off without it.
https://www.cdc.gov/tb/testing/blood-test.html

Developed in the 90's.

Approved by the FDA in 2005. Probably took a while for it to become widespread.

The thing is: The protocol for a positive skin test wasn't "Here, take this 9 month treatment." It was "You need a chest X-Ray to show it's not active. If not, you're good to go!" Especially if they know you've received the vaccine. And no one should have made you go through the treatment multiple times - it's pointless, because even if you never had the vaccine but had latent/active TB, you will always test positive with the skin test. Knowing you'd gone through treatment once should have sufficed.

I know a nurse who definitely has latent TB (i.e. no vaccine). And she never had problems after a positive skin test - her employers always knew about it and as long as she had a clean chest X-Ray, she was deemed fit to interact with (at risk) patients.

Whoever made you go through treatment was incompetent.
What kind of commentary are you referring to?
I installed Mailinabox [1] four years ago. There was one annoying upgrade, whose process needs to improved, but outside of that haven't touched anything. Only a couple of random domains where email delivery has failed. Otherwise, it just delivers to all the big providers.

I assume you’re some sort of a seriously high-level research scientist, given the high-level writing and use of the word lesswrongian. Otherwise, you have no way of understanding what this “research assistant“ is generating. Furthermore, if such high-level scientist, such as yourself, are no longer hiring research assistants, what humans will replace you? There will be few low-level scientist to move up to your level of expertise and provide validation of what’s generated by the AIs. Is that not a potential problem?
I wonder to what extent these blunt the Cassandra Effect.
As someone that's self-hosted email for years, I don't think it's that hard. There's plenty of great solutions that make it easy. Sure, there are footguns, but they are well known and easy to avoid.
For libre options available from Linux distributions' repositories, see isync (aka mbsync) and offlineimap. And mail clients in general should be able to handle IMAP and standard formats (Maildir, mbox). If one cares about mail backups, it is also useful to archive and backup one's mail in one of those standard and portable formats, and/or to synchronize between multiple machines regularly.

Note that intelligence/code completion was never about saving keystrokes, so I assume LLMs shouldn’t be either. Code completion has always been about getting a list of things you can do on a particular type, saving you from having to remember everything in your head (and APIs have gotten more numerous as a result). LLM code assistance that I’ve seen is poorly designed in that it usually gives you one most likely choice (so save keystrokes) and doesn’t allow you to browse through a bunch of likely possibilities.
It’s not just the quantity of tokens in context that matters, but the coherence of the concepts in the context.

Many conflicting ideas are harder for models to follow than one large unified idea.
DNS records and net flow data. They can also inject JS in http sites, hijack domaijs to do the same, do traffic shaping. But I am biased, I work for a VPN company.
I can understand the sentiment not to add extra work of scanning pictures of items that have seemingly not changed over the years. But I personally find these pictures interesting. I love to look at old pictures of say a square or a street and see how much or little has changed. I guess it depends on the viewer but I hope my kids don‘t feel the need to dump the hundreds and thousands of pictures of things they’re not a focus of.
But I agree 100% on the non staged photo motive part. I took a lot of photos of my kids over the years and other people asked me to do the same for their kids. With the question why the fotos looked so good. I always explained my two secrets.
1. Go down to the same level as your kid. Most parents snap pictures of their little ones from above. This looks like a screenshot from the eye. The different perspective to see a kid how another kid sees it is more fascinating.
2. Don‘t Stage the Fotos. Try to capture interesting moments. You may have to lurk or wait. If you know the person well you get a feeling when a certain emotion will show on their face. That is something a staged photo won‘t give you.
Doing group photos like this becomes more and more difficult of course. And when kids age they become more and more aware of the camera.
> self hosting email is one of the hardest things to do

I spent an hour setting up postfix and some milters on a Digital Ocean droplet around 7 years ago and it's been working fine as my personal email server with no deliverability issues or maintenance since then. I ssh in every few years to try out a new spam filter or something and maybe upgrade some packages if I feel like it. These days there are even easier mail-in-a-box style turnkey deployments that work just as well but don't need as much knowledge or setup as bare postfix.

At this point, the biggest barrier to self-hosting email is the deafening cries of people who don't know what they're talking about parroting how impossible it is to do.
It sounds like one function in libmodem accepts a pointer to a configuration struct, then stores that pointer (or an interior pointer from within it), which is then later used by another libmodem function later. If all of libmodem were written in Rust, this could be done without any use of unsafe, but it would require the lifetime on the original "reference" to provably outlive the second function getting called, probably by being static.

Yeah, Cerebras seems to be the SOTA. I suspect we need something more radically different for truly memory-centric computing that will be significantly more efficient.
I've had the same experience. My new approach is to do a mental check to see if I could get the same picture from a google search. If not then I get out the camera. That in effect compels me to either enjoy the moment, or to include people in the photo to make it unique.
This would be a nice transport/storage backend for DeltaChat, as it seems there are no limits for number of incoming and outgoing emails. In DeltaChat most messages are very short, but if you're chatting in a group it may incur a lot of emails in both directions.
>The illegality wasn't just incidental

The illegality of drugs is a government reaction, since governance failed to do anything with the problem by action. No-one deserves a life-long sentence in prison for that. This market, as well as minimal competition, lack of regulation, and high margins was created by the same power which sends people to jail.

Russia's male military-age population is under 12 million, and maybe 800,000 have been killed or seriously injured so far. The solution Russia is trying: "Pregnant at 16", a reality TV show, to encourage young women to get pregnant.[1] They need fresh meat for the grinder.

Thanks! I see what you're getting-at and mostly agree but I think it really would be helpful to mention a bit more about the actual pixel-production side of things in a document like this, to help make it a more complete picture of the whole rendering process.

For instance, just shooting N-samples-per-pixel and then averaging them, is not what most 'Production'-renderers used in VFX actually get up to. There's also the 'Pixel Filter' (Box, Gaussian, Catmull-rom, Sinc, Nearest, Farthest, Highest-coverage etc) that the samples have to go through too! And I think it's useful and interesting to cover some aspects of that, even if it's not a full-on signal-processing section.
In Australia, from my PoV, that's not a "political view", that's very much a policy position.

He's very much in favour of anti-trust legislation which in many ways aligns with his business.

He has side leaked a political preference for the US Democrats, but is prepared to applaud the US Republicans for this one specifc appointment.

It's disapointing the US devolved into a two party Hotelling’s law quagmire and became captured by the first ray of difference, it'd be better to see the end of First Past the Post and a wider range of smaller parties that were forced to interact on policy issues to better represent a wider demographic.

Pretty much every "normie" should download and setup an email client like Thunderbird. You can open it once a month or so to let all the emails download to your own computer. Possibly backed up by some cloud service.

Yeah it is kind of silly to believe check boxes, radio buttons and drop downs somehow make things easier.

I've been a Purelymail customer since July 2021. For the most part I have been very satisfied. However, in July 2024 I sent an email to Scott for support because I have been getting too much spam. He said that the spamassassin auto-learning filter was broken and he was working on a replacement. In the time since then, I think maybe it is doing a little better, but I still get quite a lot of spam.

But for $0.40/month I have not had any inclination to switch providers.

Ok, I've replaced the title above with more representative language from the article.
The US and Denmark are both signatory to a similar convention to the Copenhagen Convention of 1857, says the latter's Wikipedia page.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Convention_on_t... says the US isn't signatory to UNCLOS.

My reading of article 19 of UNCLOS says Denmark and/or Sweden can't place a new universal insurance requirement for innocent passage, because it is not on the list of activities which are "prejudicial to the peace, good order or security of the coastal State."

Article 235 says there can be 'procedures for payment of adequate compensation, such as compulsory insurance or compensation funds' for 'the protection and preservation of the marine environment' but that's the only mention of insurance I see.

I don't think an insurance company would pay out for deliberate acts of sabotage.

It's all to easy to set up an insurance company which would go bankrupt in that case, requiring oversight.

Clearly of Denmark were to set up the only insurance company which could meet all the criteria, then we are back to having Sound Dues.

That's ringing my alarm bells real hard. It has none of the things you'd expect on a website for something like this. Where's the git repository link? Why is the download button linking to a totally different domain? Why is it called an "app"? Why is it called "Lemon" just to target people who have used the legitimate lemon-named service? User has spammed links to this service for a week straight?

99% chance, in my opinion, that this is malicious.

Have you seen that you can customize the list of engines when you click "more engines"?

For now, if you have two engines in your list that start with the same letter and want to use the second one, you have to click on it.

I was thinking about changing it so that when you press the letter, then both engines lit up so you know you have to press another letter to select which one you want. So DeepL would be "de" and DuckDuckGo would become "du".

Not sure if it is a feature in high demand. If I get feedback from a user that they want it, I would implement it.

I got a flag that was identical to France's flag but was 6k km west of France and 4k km east of Mexico. Judging from the filename of the final image (MF.png), I guess it was the "Collectivity of Saint Martin"? but the game never told me what it is, which feels particularly bad given that my first guess was "France" and no amount of revealing more tiles could give me a hint based on the flag.
It's literally a model.

Large Language Model (LLM).

Hundreds of layers with a trillion weights and you think "nothing is modelled" there. The comments on this site are ridiculous.

Studies have traced individual "neurons" in LLMs that represent specific concepts. It's not even debatable at this point.
To be clear I never went through the treatment, it just took a lot of arguing with doctors and the school/nonprofit administration in question after the false positive. I never had a chest xray either, I just had to drill it into their heads that Soviets got the vaccine and that it causes a false positive.

It sounds like they weren’t very well informed of TB protocol.
That's a fair point I also observed.
The problem with the validation argument is that the P-cores were advertising AVX-512 via CPUID with the E-cores disabled. If the AVX-512 support was not validated and meant to be used, it would not have been a good idea to set that CPUID bit, or even allow the instructions to be executed without faulting. It's strange that it launched with any AVX-512 support at all and there were rumors that the decision to drop AVX-512 support officially was made at the last minute.

As for the downsides of disabling the E-cores, there were Alder Lake SKUs that were P-core only and had no E-cores.

Not all workloads are widely parallelizable and AVX-512 has features that are also useful for highly serialized workloads such as decompression, even at narrower than 512-bit width. Part of the reason that AVX-512 has limited usage is that Intel has set back widespread adoption of AVX-512 by half a decade by dropping it again from their consumer SKUs, with AVX10/256 only to return starting in ~2026.
They also tell you to keep one off until you get to the place. Never have both phones on at the same time.
