It’s actually just jargon-ified. When pressing a piece of sheet metal into a die (concave form) with a punch (convex form) to stretch and compress the metal into a deep shape (e.g., a cup, can, etc.), using ultrasound to induce some wiggles can reduce the chance of tearing, likely allowing for less material use and greater yield rates for a machining process.

Basically, if you’re forming metal with high force, give it some high speed micro-wiggles and things will be better.

This should feel pretty natural for folks who have tried to squeeze into skinny jeans after Thanksgiving.

567mb is extremely reasonable for an statically linked developer shell with all the tools from a Debian system. It's not just downloading a terminal interface, of course.

For comparison, my minimalist NixOS shell that's on my Pixel is 2.55gb.

Muscle actually is an intervention for one of the biggest risk factors in metabolic syndrome - insulin resistance.

Muscles use glycogen. They use more glycogen when you're doing the sort of thing that builds muscle, so of course it's even better there, but someone who just genetically puts on more muscle at the same level of activity as someone who puts on less will still use more blood sugar for their muscles, and thus be less likely to increase their insulin resistance.
That book is incredible...

>One of the best conspiracy theories I have heard recently is that the CCP can use one of their reconnaissance balloons to instantly switch every device that has a Chinese radio chip into DDOS mode.

This is a terrible conspiracy theory. Given how much Chinese IOT devices active in the West right now, the CCP doesn't even need to fly a balloon into the US. They can just pressure its IOT vendors to push a firmware update that broadcasts the DDOS signal.

>If that were to happen it could plausibly generate enough congestion to seriously degrade a significant portion of the public Internet.

At best it'll take down 2.4ghz communications, not the entire internet, or even all wifi networks. 5 Ghz/cellular networks will be spared because cheap chinese IOT devices don't operate in those frequency ranges, or the band is too wide for devices to jam. Moreover any important systems/institutions would presumably have hardwired connections, which are completely immune.
Pardon it was the Ultimatum Game, not the dollar auction.
I really wonder if the whole insolvency and locking up customer funds thing happened which led to the revelation of fraud etc. If that happened now, with Trump in office. Would he have just not been arrested, indicted, convicted, etc.?
news is uniquely terrible for learning a language IMHO. One word changes meaning substantially.. lots of long form statements when a short form would work; lots of references that take local, political or cultural context to know; lots of ideas and words, very fast.. etc..
Brave of you to assume what Trump would think.

To me any decision could come out of the White House these days. If Trump decides to drop a nuclear bomb in China for no reason, I would not be surprised. Not that it is likely, but I have lowered my expectations enough.
How do places like Xerox PARC and Bell Labs of old compare to Microsoft Research, Facebook/Meta Reality Labs, and Google X of today? Are the latter modern equivalents so to speak of the former in terms of funding innovative research?

This paper [1] may be an interesting place to start.

We only know how the structures are designed to work, and we have hypothesise of how they likely work. We can't interpret what actually happens when the LLM is actually going through the process of generating a response.

That seems pedantic or unimportant on the surface, but there are some really important implications. At the more benign level, we don't know why a model gave a bad response when a person wasn't happy with the output. On the more important end, any concerns related to the risk of these models becoming self-directed or malicious simply can't be recognized or guarded against. We won't know if a model becomes self-directed until after it acts on it in ways that don't match how we already expect them to work.

Both alignment and interoperability were important research topics for decades of AI research. We effectively abandoned those topics once we made real technological advancement - once an AI-like tool was no longer entirely theoretical we couldn't be bothered focusing resources on figuring out how to do it safely. The horse was already out of the barn.

Does this mean they will turn evil or end up going poorly for us? Absolutely not. It just means that we have to cross our fingers and hope because we can't detect issues early.

The story here is that a criminal that stole billions is staging a prison escape through an openly corrupt political administration and their subservient media apparatus.
Redid + Sidekiq was a default for a long time in the Rails world as well, but it’s an unnecessary complication (and expense) for most use cases. Just use your existing DB until you need to seriously scale up, and then look at a message queue.

I’ve used Redis for leaderboards and random matchmaking though, stuff which is doable in postgres but is seriously write-heavy and a bit of a faff. Gives you exactly the sort of goodies you need on top of a K/V store without being difficult to set up.

As for caching - it’s nice to use as an engineer for sure, but pretty pricey. It wouldn’t be my default choice any more.
Yeah I get a little excited when I see an overripe banana in my house cuz I know my wife’s going to make banana nut bread and we’re gonna finish it all in an hour.
You’re right. But in this case SBF engaged in an external interview, without permission, over a link normally reserved for access to attorneys.

When the interview came out, it’s safe to assume the prison had no idea how it happened. He was in solitary for 24 hours, possibly so they could ensure there were no smartphones or anything else.

It also may have been just to punish him. But there’s at least one reasonable reason, given that it was only 24 hours.
I work at a company that banned redis after an outage. kind of blunt, it feels like such an amateur decision to have made. So reactionary instead of trying to learn it. It's large popular internet company too
Say that I'm an amateur historian. I go into an archive and scan a bunch of documents (letters, diagrams, maps, etc). They're saved as JPG files.

What's the best way to make sense of that corpus of knowledge? Is it Rlama or something else?

I'm currently trying to homebrew this with Gemini, but am not sure if there's something that gets me out of building a RAG system from scratch.
Well, if you are telling me about problem X, which could easily resolved and which would be useful and beneficial for you, and we could solve it with low transactions costs, and i present you the solution Y to your problem X: Why should this be offensive? (obviously they have some "logistics alignment problem", if the have those dicussions?)

example: im living alone and i also hired someone to do this. I do not get whats wrong about a useful suggestion? And esp. in this case, its not about the money that they do not hire someone

Aren't these just handled with XDG libraries?

I broadly agree with this but it raises a bigger question -- how do you punish someone who is already in a process of punishment?

That's an especially important question when someone is going through a very long punishment process, like what does another life sentence mean to someone who has a life sentence? You can't execute someone twice, right?

If someone breaks a very important rule in prison there needs to be some way to put an immediate stop to that behaviour and to disincentivize them from doing it again and in a situation like this is seems like solitary confinement is the most effective way to do that.
Why? they are fraudsters, which ulrbicht was not. also they have only served a few years
I worked for a company that had enough customers that AWS had to rearrange their backlog for cert management to get us to come on board, and our ingress didn’t see 10,000 req/s. We put a KV store in front of practically all of our backend services though. We could have used Redis, but memcached was so stable and simple that we just manually sharded by service. We flew too close to the sun trying to make the miss rate in one of the stores a little lower and got bit by OOMKiller.

By the time it was clear we would have been better off with Redis’ sharding solution the team was comfortable with the devil they knew.

Well, arguably Java had the right idea with their checked/unchecked distinction.

I believe effect types (that are the true generalization of checked exceptions) are a pretty good solution to error handling, though as you also write, certain functions where an "error" case is expected should just use ADTs or so (e.g. parsing a string to an int)
"Ebook sales increased in adult fiction by 5.3%, now accounting for 20% of total sales, but sales of the format declined in adult nonfiction (down 5.8%) and children’s/young adult (down 1.6%)..."

I have been hearing that e-book sales account for around 20% of total book sales since around 2012. Are they sure we're not just talking about noise level up-and-down movement here? A chart to show the long-term trend (or lack of same) would have been useful.
That's interesting, why is it called drawing when the actual motion is pushing or pressing? I would've expected drawing to mean pulling by means of vacuum or similar.

Reality check: yesnoerror, the only part of the article that actually seems to involve any published AI reviewer comments, is just checking arxiv papers. Their website claims that they "uncover errors, inconsistencies, and flawed methods that human reviewers missed." but arxiv is of course famously NOT a peer-reviewed journal. At best they are finding "errors, inconsistencies, and flawed methods" in papers that human reviewers haven't looked at.

Let's then try and see if we can uncover any "errors, inconsistencies, and flawed methods" on their website. The "status" is pure madeup garbage. There's no network traffic related to it that would actually allow it to show a real status. The "RECENT ERROR DETECTIONS" lists a single paper from today, but looking at the queue when you click "submit a paper" lists the last completed paper as the 21st of February. The front page tells us that it found some math issue in a paper titled "Waste tea as absorbent for removal of heavy metal present in contaminated water" but if we navigate to that paper[1] the math error suddenly disappears. Most of the comments are also worthless, talking about minor typographical issues or misspellings that do not matter, but of course they still categorize that as an "error".

It's the same garbage as every time with crypto people.

Deep draw makes a lot of parts, including your soda cans. If they can roll it out in practice, this is a big deal.

And yes, to the MP3 commenters, Fraunhofer has many centers doing lots of industrial research on manufacturing technology. The German research approach is to pick a topic and set up a Fraunhofer institute in particular city for that, whereas the US has NSF, DARPA, DOE, the national labs all working Willy Nilly with whoever, wherever. MP3 was done mostly at the Fraunhofer in Erlangen. I’ve worked on CNC things with the Fraunhofer folks in Aachen and elsewhere.
If SBF was able to get a smuggled phone, as the article speculates, to do an unauthorized interview, then he is clearly using his connections to sidestep aspects of his incarceration. Putting him in solitary is an appropriate way to cut him off from engaging in further such corruption, and it should be repeated for any further violations. The only problem here is that it took this long for them to identify that he had the ability to do things like this.

Billionaires like him should serve the same time in the same manner as any other citizen.
Loved my little Eee 901! It was the first computer I could treat as a casual accessory, not just a precious piece of precision equipment. I would take it anywhere - ski trips, the workshop, the pub; I wrote a fair bit of code on that machine while sitting at the bar down the street with a pint at my elbow. It was cheap enough that I figured I could just buy another one, if it broke, but it never did. I eventually graduated to second-hand Thinkpads, a habit I've maintained ever since.
I work as a server on weekends to stay sane and for....some reason, corporate had the grand idea that automated cleaning robots (it's like a roomba but a bit taller) going around would improve the guest experience.

Our floors aren't ever really filled with trash though! We're one of those 2010s-era brewpubs so it's a large, open space but these things are so awkward to navigate around and I wish so much that they would send them to the basement.
Using Redis exclusively remotely never made much sense to me. I get it as a secondary use case (gather stats from a server that’s running Redis, from another machine or something) but if it’s not acting as (effectively) structured, shared memory on a local machine with helpful coordination features, I don’t really get it. It excels at that, but all this Redis as a Service stuff where it’s never on the same machine as any of the processes accessing it don’t make sense to me.

Like you have to push those kinds of use cases if you’re trying to build a business around it, because a process that runs on your server with your other stuff isn’t a SaaS and everyone wants to sell SaaS, but it’s far enough outside its ideal niche that I don’t understand why it got popular to use that way.
Since it can be commonly viewed from literal sea level (like the shoreline of the ocean or San Francisco Bay), it’s more apropos.
Yea, Ulbricht only tried to have people murdered
That's why the article is misleading, because what you took away doesn't make any slightest sense.

If a malicious actor can leverage these commands, it means they already have control over your device and can use its Bluetooth radio however they want.

The only security problem that this causes is when your firmware gives someone else ability to use ESP's Bluetooth via HCI over UART without validating their inputs, not expecting it to allow them to take over the device. This is a rather uncommon scenario though - the user of such interface would usually be still you, just from a different chip.
My base Debian Docker image for development is around 450 MB, including toolchain, and some other base niceties.

My absolutely not minimalist image (without GUI) is less than 2GB.

Looking at my list, I have some OS image weighting at 115MB (granted, have no idea anymore what is it... maybe it's just garbage.).

567 MB doesn't sound extremely reasonable to me, but sure, it's less than 2.55GB (for now).
Yeah but you wouldn't get access to active research projects, equipment (including lab equipment and super-computers), and various other programs. The point of universities has always been network effects, not the quality of pedagogy of individual professors.

Universities also usually have free tutoring centers. So, for the cost of tuition, you get access to (often more than) 8 hours of tutoring a week in addition to all the other stuff.

Also 8 hours a week would be an absurdly low courseload.

This would probably help a little bit in terms of security but you would still depend fully on your password manager for access to various services. Personally, I don't like the dependency aspect of password managers.

I hate having to log into my password manager first before I can log into the service... And I don't like having to adhere to the whims of the password manager about things like changing my password every 6 months or using certain characters... It's really none of their business to determine what level of security is appropriate for me when trying to access my Instagram account which I barely care about anyway. I'm not some billionaire with teams of hackers trying to crack into my account 24/7.

I hate it when I can't use certain passwords because the password manager thinks it should contain certain characters which I simply won't remember.

I hate when trying to log into LastPass with my master password and I can't remember my password and have to try like 10 permutations to find the one in the format that it forced me to use last time that it forced me to change my password.

I hate getting locked out of LastPass and having to go through its 'Forgot my password' flow only to find out that the password for my email account which receives the email password reset link is also controlled by LastPass... And it's only by the grace of god that I had not trusted LastPass to generate my email password for me and I was able to guess it and didn't end up fully locked out of all my services which I need for my work.

That last experience was so scary, I actually wrote down my LastPass master password on a piece of paper and put it in my desk drawers so that I would not forget it. I know this is insecure but that sort of risk profile is aligned with my current non-billionaire status. Somehow, I don't think North Korea is going to send spies to my house to peak into my desk drawers to break into my work accounts...

Really, I hear in early 90s, how Telefunken developed PAL TV standard (and also RGB, YUV and some other things, now you could read about on Wikipedia).

- They working like Gallop - asked people from street, to answer simple questions like "is this color Red or Yellow?", and with large number of samples they got statistical approximation, about curves of sensitivity of human eye, and then just use these approximation as direct wavelengths for Red/Green/Blue respectively.

Fraunhofer, as I know, used similar approach, but for sound, and got model of sensitivity of human ear.

So, what I want to say, for these researches don't need many scientists, but need wide enough sample and good reliable execution of math.

BTW, much later I read about research conducted in US air forces, targeting some ideal human pilot size to made most convenient plane control (and sure cheapest).

But they got so disappointing results, that have decide to make pivot - instead of make one standard size, they designed usual for us now adjustable chairs, tilting steering wheel, and pedals with adjustable suspension.
It's not that different. It might be easier than your average "pwn" and might not require root access, but this is only my hypothesis based on what's written in TFA.
A Vietnamese restaurant near Seattle has one of these and they are both annoying and useless. The device rolls slowing between the tables playing a repetitive tune like a popsicle truck. Meanwhile the server walks along next to it and pull the food off the tray and puts it on the table. There is no labor saving or time saving benefit. I suspect that they do it just to seem “high tech” but its not impressive.
Yes, agreed. I've made that same point to progressives who quoted the paradox of tolerance many times but it fell on deaf ears. Perhaps they'll listen now.
Good catch!
The days when i saw her some days in the metro, i checked explicitly if she has some signs of an existing relationship, like a ring or something specific that may indicate this.

Also i have to admit, she is a smoker; something i could deal with (teethgrindingly) since i was one for myself years ago, but honestly: Today most men wont partner up with a lady who is a smoker. And in case of men today, if you are smoking you are actually out forever for any women: Smoking _is_ just disgusting :-D

So, my "gut-statistics" is just telling me that she is/was single with a very very high probality.

EDIT:
before someone is coming with clothes or similar ideas: Im working in a decent office environment in which nice clothes are the standard (finance), so im not running around with jeans etc, also im in very good shape
nc and sh are well known and documented tools. Their existence on a system and running state can be inspected and the implications of various configurations is well understood.

If someone just discovered nc in the wild and up to that point it had been unknown, people would put that bit of software in a very different category than the one it exists in today.
This is likely just from losing weight rapidly in general. We see it with people losing weight from a variety of other sources, too. It's possible GLP-1s might enhance the effect in some way, but it's already a significant enough issue in general that adequate protein intake + some resistance training is important regardless.
Yeah, the first two books especially were very clearly intended as "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but fantasy". They're a good read, but they're not quite what the series became
