That sounds extremely improbable.

You simply cannot take 70% from the revenue coming from an employee-like agent, yet report that to the government as being that person's income. Not only would that be blatant fraud, but depending on the exact percentages and absolute amount, the employee might have to give all their pay to the government to covert the tax, and even owe some more after that.

In what country are they doing this?
You don't have to type. I wrote some things with hundreds of links then assumed the reader was at least somewhat familiar with the set of links above each paragraph.

Pretty common for most big mature companies to do at one point or another as their section of the economy swings up and down. This is probably only new for new big teh companies they have only experienced growth. Cisco has done plenty, and the defense industry does it a lot as contracts wind down.

Way less of a morale hit than layoffs, but it suffers a similar problem to all RIF methods where your high performers say "hmm conditions are that bad you're getting rid of people huh? I guess maybe I will take 6 months my annual salary and go get another job."

Just because you can show fewer women than men do a thing doesn't mean that it's caused by discrimination. Do you think men are discriminated by salons, massage parlors, or preschool teacher positions? It's sexism right?

I was skeptical too - friends encouraged me to post my latest project there, a panoramic camera app I made entirely for my own satisfaction (I certainly used none of the “growth hacking” best practices like ads/tracking/upsell popup on first launch/excessive subscription that counts on people forgetting to turn off auto renew).

I posted it on Product Hunt and got a good response, made it to the front page even (link if anyone’s curious: https://www.producthunt.com/products/65x24#65x24)

I don’t doubt that there’s a broader metagame that can be hacked, but in my limited experience legitimate passion projects still have a shot there.

A long while ago my friend and I released a Safari extension that shows a few clocks in the timezones that you choose. I can't recall the details, but we had an off by 1 error on a few zones during DST.

I ended up fixing it by hand changing the time, releasing a version every 6 months for years, otherwise we would get mails about it from the few users using it.

I think I could automate this or otherwise solve the issue, but it always felt nice to move the clocks of a few hundred people.
Even non coders enjoy it. I got 2 people hooked up that now use it as a notes app.

I did general physics for a year at uni as part of my Computer Engineering course, then switching to Computer Science where I picked up a year of quantum mechanics. Since then whenever I lay in bed and thought about physics I would end up awake for hours. So damn interesting but the maths always held me back, so sadly gave up.

I don’t know what’s changed (maybe maturity or maybe Vyvanse lol) but I’m slowly putting the pieces together. It’s always been in my outer periphery but still out of reach. Your confirmation has and will change my life. Maybe not career wise or life altering seen from the outside, but hot damn you have at least cleared my constant nagging guilt for not perusing maths and physics because you’ve just made it slightly closer within reach. Can’t wait for the book to arrive. Thank you!!!
I used to never harm insects until I found ticks and mosquitos on my dog...So now I kill ticks and mosquitos.

I like spiders though. I have had one living in my bathroom window for about six months now. It seems to be eating other spiders that try to crawl in based on the contents of its web. I consider this rent payment and allow it to stay.
There are mmWave radar sensors available commercially.
See my other comment but also npm is installed globally and global packages are available so there is no isolation. Compare to Python where a virtual env is complete with a separate copy of the Python interpreter, associated tools (pip, etc.), and only local packages are available. And best of all, you can call binaries inside the virtual env from outside it as normal executables and it just works. No need to mess with $PATH or set any other env variables, just call ./venv/bin/foobar and foobar will run in the context of that venv. Recreating this on a different machine is amazingly simple if you can use one of the already available Python binaries on that system, and trivial if not (compiling Python takes a few minutes and there are lots of tools that will make that process even simpler than the two commands you need to do it). People talk about Docker being the universal environment to run things but Python development doesn’t even need that 99% of the time. And the standard library is chock full of sane, performant modules that allow you to do everything you need, from asyncio to parsing arcane binary formats. My installed packages typically number in dozens, not thousands like JS, because the standard library provides so much already.

I was at a party with an early FB employee once and he was bragging about how they would spy on people to see who's profiles they were looking at. He thought it was hilarious, I never used FB again.

Thank you for sharing your expertise.

It seems to be unbelievable that none of this has become part of AOSP.

I should have a battery setting that optimizes either for battery longevity, or for maximum power delivery. These settings should incorporate best practice, such as you have outlined.

The last stable ACC release was in late 2023, and it appears to remain the best battery management tool for longevity.

Why is this so?

I rewrote your script slightly, and ran it on my Pixel 3.

I've suggested that long context should be included into the prompt.

In your particular case the prompt would look something like:
<pubmed dump> what are the plants that aren't poisonous to most people?

A general reasoner would recover language and relevant world model from pubmed dump. And then would proceed to reason about it, to perform the task.

It doesn't look like a particularly efficient process.

Consider the lobster

The fact that even the most highly evolved nonhuman mammals can’t use language to communicate with us about their subjective mental experience is only the first layer of additional complication in trying to extend our reasoning about pain and morality to animals. And everything gets progressively more abstract and convolved as we move farther and farther out from the higher-type mammals into cattle and swine and dogs and cats and rodents, and then birds and fish, and finally invertebrates like lobsters.

I've noticed a sound card sounding better for higher impedance headphones and also having reduced interference from the onboard circuitry (from being further away?). That being said, I also had to calibrate my setting a whole lot more to get better audio which seems to be how it goes for hifi audio equipment. I've just stuck to onboard for a long time and it's usually pretty darn good sounding with my sennheisers.

Mosquitos are only one type of countless types of insects, most of which are harmless or even beneficial to humans.

In any case if you are going to have such a war-like attitude, it's the humans that deserve to be destroyed by the animals, not the other way around. We are the ones fucking up the planet.

And we kill almost 100 billion animals a year for food, and who knows how many others from other human activities.
Prior to the settlement, Zuckerberg had dinner with Trump at Mar-A-Lago and discussed Trump's lawsuit against Meta, Twitter, and Google [1] (about whether moderation decisions of private companies are restricted by the First Amendment, which is almost never the case).

> Now the Wall Street Journal is reporting that when Zuckerberg flew to Mar-A-Lago to have dinner with Trump right after the election, the President (who just months earlier had threatened to put Zuck in prison for life), apparently brought up the case unprompted during the dinner, and said that for Zuck to make amends and be “brought into the tent” he had to pay up

...

> Let’s call this what it is: a protection racket that would make Tony Soprano proud. The playbook is classic: file a meritless lawsuit, make veiled threats (like suggesting prison time), then offer “protection” in exchange for payment. The only difference is that instead of a local restaurant owner paying to keep their windows intact, we’re watching a tech giant hand over $25 million to avoid future “problems.” The case was legally DOA – but that was never the point.

> And Zuck is now using Meta’s money to fund what is effectively a $25 million gift to Trump.

Pain only makes sense if an animal can learn. It is a teaching mechanism to modify future behavior. A very simple creature may act purely automatically, not even instinct but raw dna-programmed responses. Pain makes little sense there as there is no learning to be done. I doubt bacteria feel pain.
Well, it works for Damien Hirst (allegedly).
To understand spin it's good to consider a gyroscope. when it has a lot of angular momentum there are two stable states for it in a gravitational field: aligned or anti-aligned with gravitation, up or down. in all other cases the gyroscope precesses. a spinor doesn't spin quite like a gyroscope but it is spinning in a sense (after all spin is angular momentum). but just like the gyroscope, you can think of it as having two stable states: in alignment with a magnetic field, or in anti-alignment. and because the magnetic field is a measure of some kind of rotation it can add to or subtract from the angular momentum of a spinor. this difference is "felt" as a negative or positive potential difference. this you can think of as two opposite forces on the spinor that split it apart into up and down components. the interesting thing is that a spinor with an arbitrary axis can always be written as the sum/superposition of an up and down spinor for some chosen direction. turns out quaternions have precisely the properties that you need to model this.
i hope this was intelligible, it's a bit hard to put the geometry into words.
I think there is still a geometric viewpoint you can bring to the multiplicative structure of C. For example there is the extremely natural homeomorphism between unit C and SO(2). And C minus origin to (R+, SO(2)). It’s completely intuitive for mathematicians to say that 1 and i are separated by 90 degrees.
Incredible. This is like Graffiti from Pompeii.
stickin out ya notch for the rizzler
By which definition is "Y" a consonant? It represents the vowel sound much more often than it does the consonant sound, so if you go by that metric, it's a "vowel letter".

Of course, the more accurate take is that it's by definition neither a vowel nor a consonant because those are properties of sounds. They only apply to letters to the extent that letters consistently represent sounds, but when they do not, it doesn't make any sense to categorize letters like that.
I've looked into it before and I didn't find anything suggesting that it's a law. It appears to be willful collaboration with the feds and other nation states, possibly to avoid the attention of regulators, but it's all done in secret so there's not a ton of info.

Along similar lines, scanners and commercial software packages like Photoshop attempt to detect EURion dots and the digital watermarking that replaced it in currency. Obviously open source software has no such thing because it would be pointless, and it's not illegal that it doesn't.

For whatever reason, these antifeatures seem to also be missing from commercial digital cameras.

That's a great couple of sentences; it really clearly explains what's going on.
I went into this thinking “Futurism can’t be the cause of fascism, it must be the people who are using the word futurist to describe themselves having alterior motives” but as I read the article it became clear that the definition of ‘Futurism’ has been unclear and the new meaning is… not positive, at least the futurists in our current political climate that is.

I've had to relax my rule to never needlessly harm insects, and never do it just because it's the easiest way to get rid of them. For example, a single ant gets scooped up and thrown outside, but a line that found food is getting killed and their pheromone trail bleached.
I don't feel any compunction about killing mosquitoes, but I prefer one good hit with a heavy object and its over. I'd consider it unethical to torture one by dismembering it while it's alive, for example, and I'm not a fan of using poisons.
Looks great!

> I think, what’s the point? You know how cooperate is pronounced. You know that being naive is not being a knave.

Not everybody does know that, especially not non-native speakers, which English obviously has in abundance.

Dieresis is not really the best symbol for this given that it's much more commonly used for completely different things in other languages, but at the very least it makes you stop and consider why it's there in an unfamiliar word, and perhaps check its pronunciation in a dictionary.

(The more sensible thing would be to use the apostrophe as syllable separator where necessary, as in na'ive, co'operation etc - it is already frequently used this way in English in foreign names anyway, and is much more intuitive for non-native speakers.)

I am saying that all people, including neurodivergent people, have personal agency in what kind of work they choose to do. If you work a job that is primarily meaningless work, that’s your choice. My original comment was to say that you have a choice to not work dull jobs, and it is imperative as a nd person to not do it as you will lose. If instead you take a little personal responsibility for your life’s direction, and do work that plays to your strengths, work is easy. Probably true for all people, but absolutely essential for thriving as a neurodivergent person.
It's English. Naïve is more commonly known.
