Well, from a philosophical point of view you might say that it's impossible. The idea of laws that can apply to e.g. mathematics might not apply to organisms because organisms are described in terms of teleology. The heart doesn't just happen to circulate blood, it beats in order to circulate blood to oxygenate the body and so on.

And just because, for example, organisms that live in cold climates generally have thick hair, having thick hair doesn't imply cold climates. Some mammals fill niches filled by birds in other ecosystem, or by fish in others. Likewise in New Zealand they have birds filling niches that in other ecosystems are filled by mammals.

I'm not sure biology can be a purely inductive science.
A fun prank to play on someone with absolute pitch is to play a favorite recoding of theirs detuned by 20 cents or so. It will drive them crazy.

This same prank would have no impact on someone who memorized approximately where A440 is by listening to a tuning fork every day for 10 minutes.

Absolute pitch and tonal memory are different physical phenomena.
And if you aren’t a fan of being sedated (I’ve never been, and I’d prefer to keep it that way), you can opt to do it without sedation. Had a colonoscopy and an upper endoscopy the same day, no sedation. A little uncomfy, but not painful. If you can push yourself through hard weight training sets, or run a 50k, or anything else that entails a bit of discomfort, a colonoscopy is no biggy.
Turing Completeness of Reaction-Diffusion Models: Cardiac Arrhythmia and Halting
The radar on ships is designed to detect all objects on the water's surface. Therefore, it is challenging for a merchant ship not to see it, particularly a warship of this size. However, it can be said that if the warship were jamming, the signals might not be possible to detect. What kind of operation was being conducted in this area that required the warship to conceal itself? Furthermore, one must question why the warship, primarily upon sighting a merchant ship, did not issue the necessary warnings or take measures to prevent the collision.
It's been happening from day 1 kinda:

> Some of the first actions from the new leadership at the FBI and DOJ have targeted those who worked on President Trump’s two criminal prosecutions as well as agents and lawyers involved in charging the 1,500 Jan. 6 defendants, who have since been pardoned by the president.

Not even "just" political enemies: also people just doing their job, should that happen to go against the interests of the new regime.

Still agree with your point that panic doesn't help, and I love that you insist on it. Not even worrying helps! And especially when things are kinda bad people need to find their strength, and each other.
Meaningfully reducing the size of government is a surprisingly rare occurrence throughout history. A counter question: how should it be done? Elon's strategy is bold; 'deleting' entire departments. But that decision seems somewhat rational, if you agree that it doesn't need ~450 departments. I don't claim to have answers, just that the Elon approach seems bold but, frankly, quite sound. What are the alternatives?

Table 2's results are interesting. If the paper is to be believed, just adding the memory model seems to improve reasoning tasks across the board.

That said, I do wonder if this a bit of mirage. At 1.7B parameters, they are 3 orders of magnitude down from 4o (well that isn't completely fair, I don't know what the average 'expert' size is in 4o, but I doubt the authors are doing mixture of experts at only 1.7B). A model can 'memorize' way more shit with that many parameters.
What extra effort? If you match upstream it's a drop in replacement and anyone who cares will use it. If they don't it's because they don't care.
The typical level 2 charger doesn't have to use HomePlug, but most recent EVs will have a HomePlug modem in order to speak ISO15118 to negotiate the voltage during DC fast charging through the CCS1/2 connector.

The pilot pin that carries the square wave used for J1772 is common to both AC and DC charging, so it's possible for a level 2 charger to incorporate a modem and communicate with the EV.

In many situations it would be an unnecessary expense, but it may become more common even in level 2 chargers in the future since ISO15118 can be used to authenticate the car to the charger for plug-n-charge charging without needing a card or app to authorize the charge.

You also need for measurements to be equally spaced. Often they are – you might get an alternating pattern of measurement and observation – but often they're not, in which case the Kalman filter gives extra weight to new measurements coming in if it's been a while since it last had one (because that will have allowed the uncertainty to grow).

The Kalman filter also allows you to take into account measurements that are more uncertain in one direction than another. Think of cameras with visual recognition, which tell you a precise angle but only a rough distance estimate. If you have a couple of those and suitable measurement error matrices then the Kalman filter will automatically do a sort of triangulation.

Add a bonus, you can also use the covariance matrix of the target as information in its own right. But, as you say, often parameters are tuned for getting a good result rather than reality so the target uncertainty isn't always especially meaningful.
That class of MP3 devices are a joke. I've tried acceptable looking devices from Innioasis, Ruizu, Tokemisc. They all have the same flaws.

Poor interfaces and user controls. The ipod style touch wheels were frustrating, no velocity, dead spots.

Every single one displays filenames instead of tracknames. They have mp3 tag support for albums, genres, etc. I don't know if it is a Chinese thing to use the filename, but it was so weirdly consistent across every brand I tried.

They'll have tons of storage that may or may not work (bad usb storage implementation, bad flash, who knows). I would copy new stuff, and old tracks would disappear. Transfers were extremely slow, and it would disconnect. It doesn't matter though, because some can only index about 5000 tracks. The SD card expansion may not be indexed at all, file navigation only.

I was getting them free for reviews, and I just gave up trying new ones after about the fifth attempt. Nothing came close to even basic players like the sandisk clip series. They are awful to interact with.
I'm afraid you failed to read the first sentence in my comment which I was referring to the US and NOT Russia or China:

The parent comment believes that the US is in a so-called "single-party dictatorship" which really is just absolutely false.
Eliminating NAT makes virtual networking much hairier. E.g., my desktop is currently connected to a big enterprise network that keeps track of all devices and will only allocate one IP address per MAC address. That leaves no IPs for any VMs on my desktop to use, so they must go through NAT if they want to communicate with the outside world.
According to the article:

On Wednesday evening, DOGE advisor Katie Miller wrote on X that Musk's group is protected by the Presidential Records Act. Under that act, DOGE records would remain sealed until 2034, five years after Trump leaves office and eight years after DOGE is set to disband.

This is in response to Miller's post that says:

Per the Executive Order @DOGE was reorganized under the Executive Office of the President and subject to Presidential Records.

It looks like the 10-year wait for releasing email messages is standard operating procedure, and no one at the department is doing anything to change it either way, nor even commenting on that part of the act. The article does say:

If DOGE gets its way, it will be nearly a decade before any of Musk's or his staffers' emails will be publicly available.

This appears to be referencing a debate as to whether or not the department is an advisory committee, which the department asserts it is. If it were to be determined to be more than an advisory committee, that would have an affect on the procedure for publishing internal email messages, but this does not appear to be a major consideration in the debate over whether or not it is an advisory committee.
Like the 20th Century two world wars, the US will be late for WW3 and it'll take a much bigger act than sabotaging one German ship. But if history plays out like it usually does (which it is) it's coming.

Redox would probably be the best option. The BSDs, it would probably be an uphill fight to. I believe it's been floated, but no movement on incorporating Rust in the BSD kernels. So I they would have to start form scratch. The benefit of Linux in this case is, the Asahi team isn't single handily doing all the Rust in the Linux kernel, right. There are other Rust people and Rust for Linux was already getting somewhat bootstrapped before the Asahi project. With the BSDs, you would have to start with bootstrapping Rust in the kernels and build systems.

FreeBSD may be open to it? It's been awhile, and I haven't kept up to date on it for a year or two. But once again, I think you'd have to start from scratch. So everything for R4L that was built before Asahi Linux needs to be done on the FreeBSD side.

NetBSD is probably a no go. NetBSD supports architectures that Rust (due to LLVM) can't support. Which means it is most likely a no go for NetBSD, NetBSD's schtick is that it can run on anything and they will fully do everything in their power to make sure NetBSD can run on any hardware and be maintained. Hardware portability matters for them.

The attitude I've seen from OpenBSD devs is, the answer is to 'git gud' at C and, not replace C code with Rust. Or in other words, they have no interest in Rust in the OpenBSD kernel.

I don't really know where DragonFlyBSD falls in this. Its the BSD I know the least about.

If they can miniaturize fusion-boosted weapons, they may have a delivery vehicle. Their HF-2E cruise missiles are roughly comparable in size to Tomahawks, which can optionally carry nukes. The listed payload of the Taiwanese missiles is about half the mass, but who knows if that's accurate. Maybe the range would be reduced, but most of its military targets in a conflict wouldn't be far inland anyway.

Which one? It has 7 different UI paradigms you can choose from.

Personally i like the "Single toolbar" UI, it only shows a menubar and a toolbar with the most common stuff, which i find a great balance between minimalism and discoverability.

Though i only use like 1% of LibreOffice's features - and really only use Writer (which i mainly use as a dumb rich text editor) and Calc (mainly for a few calculations one could most likely even do in VisiCalc :-P).

I'm not sure which file naming convention is right for you, but from experience I know that my storage grows and my needs for accumulated data keep changing over time.Changing the folder structure or naming conventions to meet new needs can be very cumbersome, but if the structure and conventions are properly managed, it's a simple task. So, I think it's more important to manage and maintain them so that they can be converted at any time than it is to find the best naming convention, which is one of the reasons I created the file name system.

Somewhat related, I looked at a bunch of solvers for vehicle routing with time windows. One thing that surprised me was that the SaaS-based distance matrix calculations were prohibitively expensive. Google charged $0.01 per matrix element.

How do folks normally get the distance matrix? I ended up just using the Mapbox Optimization API instead of using a solver.

Privacy Pass docs [0] cover this, but it is mostly referenced deeper in the paper. I believe the idea is that the tokens returned by the server are "unlinkable" to the (modified) tokens passed back by the client. So the server knows it passed back tokens A, B and C to some users, and later receives tokens X, Y and Z. It knows that X, Y and Z are valid, but not their correspondance to the tokens it issued. It uses elliptic curve cryptography for this.

It's not like sabotaging German ships will cause Germany to increase military spending or fix the Bundeswehr's comically bad procurement process so there is little risk for Russia in these actions.

"meaningfully" is doing all the lifting here. This is saying nothing.

Such an approach moves the cost of accessibility to each user individually. It is not bad as a fallback mechanism, but I hope that those who publish won't decide that AI absolves them of the need to post accessible content. After all, if they generate the alt text on their side, they can do it only once and it would be accessible to everyone while saving multiple executions of the same recognition task on the other end. Additionally, they have more control how the image would be interpreted and I hope that this really would matter.
