I wound say the reaction when people don’t meet an observer’s understanding of “spirit” is where the hubris arises

And I explained that earlier: people want others to suffer as much as them. But it doesn't make any sense. The government isn't entitled to your productivity, assuming otherwise is where the hubris arises.

I mean look at the name
of the regulation that was passed for using offshore entities: GILTI (“guilty”). And now it is ironically being used to nullify tax receipts. But the United States isnt entitled to be the recipient of all capital and productivity. No state is. It doesn't matter that they offer some semblance of stability and infrastructure, that doesnt justify any particular percentage. Their funding problem doesnt justify any particular percentage. Thats where the hubris becomes apparent.
>The likelihood of a non-profit outfit building open source software being driven by a warped sense of justice

Because those people are, after all, inhuman robots with no connection to humanity? In fact, I'd say that with any group of humans, each additional human makes this more likely, simply because this sort of attitude easily overrides the less-aggressive attitudes of those who don't agree with it.

You seem to disagree because it would be uncomfortable if I were correct, and you'd much rather it be true that I'm wrong.

>trying to make sure they can continue their stated mission

What person over the age of about 5 thinks that because an organization starts with a particular mission that, even a few years in, still strongly pursue it?
I did that, and there is nothing directly related to this program. If you have something better, please let me know.

Is this report misreporting data? Are you saying these conclusions are forcefully faked? Do you have evidence? Or is it just 4chan level "LOL, Africa corrupt"?.

If you are saying it can be done cheaper or with better heuristics for safe guards, that is one thing, but just advocating for destroying it, and understanding what that entails, is another.
> If you look up RegNMS the goal is to make public markets fair by having rules that have to be met in order to trade

That was the goal and it failed at it in everything but the most technical sense. Why two people coming to a handshake deal about the price of their property is illegal is insane. I previously bought the argument about propensity for fraud. But if we’re normalising crypto, there is zero need to continue treating stock like it’s radioactive.
Exactly this thread. I use Adobe suite of software, and I really don't even know what GEGL means. Nor should I need to know. Organize filters by function. Blur->radial/Gaussian,linear,etc. Noise->add/remove/etc.

Designing the UI based on how the code a filter operates is cool for where the .cpp files live is not how the users think. Then again, a user of GIMP over other apps probably does filter that user into a more techy side of user than artistic side, so I'm probably eating a bowl of crow soon.

Seems like maybe time for FOSS UIs to start a Fiverr account looking for UI/UX peeps.
Yeah what is this nonsense? Ketamine nor stupidity explains this. Does he think everyone else is a moron? I guess he must.

3.6B / 100K = 36000 years. It's more like 240M/year to get to 3.6B. The number of human workers isn't flat either. And Tesla isn't going to be making 240M robots a year anytime soon so WTF?

If you'd read 1984 recently enough you'd know it is based upon the notion of state and social imposed ideology becoming enmeshed, a locally running hub of pure logic is the antithesis of that concept.

A better metaphor would be mephi from yamyatin's We (the original inspiration for 1984) which represents the kernel of u modulated truth which exists outside the calculus of the imposed social matrix

Hilarious that you thought I'd wouldn't be familiar with the work, when you yourself appear to be that person

They definitely should run it locally. But there are many ways of running image generation model locally.

The Bambu Labs A1 series as others have mentioned is ridiculously good, from all the reporting I've seen. I ended up getting the P1S with the multi-filament printing on sale on Father's Day and I've used the heck out of it. It replaced an older Ender 3 Pro that I loved, but was always having to mess around with. I don't know the hours, but it's been printing the vast majority of the time since I got it, last Father's Day, and it's been super reliable.

This weekend I designed and printed out a routing template for routing out door hinges onto door jambs. I had bought a tool for doing it on doors then realized it wouldn't help me on the other side.
Plenty of mobile users use wifi at home/work. Telling them to disable their ipv4-only wifi just to play your game is going to be a non-starter, especially when the cost of ipv4 address adds negligible cost to infrastructure. Is your CTO really going to massively increase user friction ("turn of your wifi to play!") just so try to save a few cents (comparatively speaking) on infra?

In physics, particles not being labelled by anything other than their trajectories is a very natural starting point. When one uses the natural configuration space, one without labels in which a configuration is a set of n points in physical space rather than an ordered n-tuple, then the complex-valued wave functions on that space are exactly those of boson type. To get the fermions, one replaces the value space with a 1 dimensional complex bundle over the configuration space, one which twists in the right way. A paper I coauthored explores this in a general context: [1]

The "you" is then a rough set of particles whose trajectories roughly coincide with your macroscopic trajectory. Their identity is just given by where they are.

As for representations, I feel like I can easily understand how to get momentum or temperature from particles with their time evolution (trajectories), but I do not see how, say, to get positions of particle just from knowing what their momentums were and their time evolution.

you might enjoy this read, which is an up-to-date document from this year laying out what was the state of the art 20 years ago:

Essentially you just count every n-gram that's actually in the corpus, and "fill in the blanks" for all the 0s with some simple rules for smoothing out the probability.
I don’t know if it matters now but at some point certain targets were hardened to near misses of certain sizes but not direct strikes. So the better your accuracy the smaller the weapon (or fewer) you can use to take out those targets.

So you could say the use would be increased certainty your enemies command and control and other bunkers would be destroyed increasing the odds of “winning” whatever happens afterwards.
It seems like it ought to be possible to add tactile feedback to a modern mouse with gyros that could make certain directions hard to move in but the weight likely isn't worth it with mice trying to get ever lighter.

I quite like force feedback generally, I have a ffb steering wheel from fanatec and a joystick from moza.there is definitely a market for this sort of thing and a mouse that had feedback if only vibration might be interesting. Usually more complex signals are where the value comes in, having a spring/rubber push back on pedals is better than nothing but vibration at multiple frequencies adds a lot and then actual motorised pedal feedback is a whole other level again.

To a point. The benefits of millisecond-grain transparency really stretches my credulity.

Let people trade. Make them report it in a reasonable period. The folks who need millisecond granularity will find it. Most economic activity doesn’t need that, and while the liquidity is good, again, I’m not convinced it needs to be publicly disseminated in the way it is now.
This needs to be published by everyone who has a blog and shared with friends and family everywhere.

I know first hand the mess from my friend who died of cancer at 38 leaving behind a wife and daughter with not only only accounts being locked out but a sprawling home lab that they did not understand. Even things like smart lights became a stumbling block when they could not control them. The router was a virtual machine on a rack mounted server in the basement. Had to unwind a lot.

How do you license focused beams of microwaves? Supposedly in some jurisdictions, if you aim a microwave beam across the window to another building, you need a license. (Because the telco monopolist has has some government bureaucrats in their back pocket or something.) Could you get around this if it's light?

People will license anything. Something you can get over the counter in one country needs a prescription in another.

> On the other hand if communication is possible that puts a leash on this dynamic

I'm a bit more pessimistic than that. I think the driver for autonomy will be that the speed at which things happen on the battlefield. People being attacked with automated weapons might not be able to make response related decisions fast enough. The automation will be in place to enable a rapid response. It will become an arms race involving speed of attack and response. It will be the military equivalent of high-frequency trading, involving things like swarms and directed energy weapons.
The implication is that "reported losses" don't have anything to do with actual losses. Citing the corporations creative accounting results convinces no-one.
I had some zip-tied cables under my standing desk, giving me 2 cables I had to deal with when changing height: ethernet and power. Then I had everything else under the desk (power strip, various power bricks and my docking station, cable runs from one side to the other). It was ok, but not great.

I switched to Underware last year, I didn't do any channels, just hangers and plates I could stick to my power strips and bricks and dock. It's really secure, really easy to adjust, and I've been very happy with it.

I also put it on the side of my bedside table, where I have a power strip, and 2 USB power supplies, and I really like it. Especially like that I can clip one off and travel with it, before I had the 3M command strips velcro, but it kept falling off.

I also printed out the multigrid and some holders for my lawn watering tools. I have a post that I mount my hose reels to, front and back, and I put multigrid on it. Then I made some holders that my "quick connect" hose connectors slot into, so I can just dock them there.
Great article. It's such a seemingly trivial detail - modelers adding a piece of apparel (high heels) that ends up potentially having huge unintended consequences by physically altering the height of the player model when equipped.

I remember playing an early 3D game that had a similar problem when they added support for alternative animal mounts. Most of the physics, structures, etc. were built with a standard horse model in mind, so the dragon mounts, etc. introduced all kinds of goofy looking clipping issues.

Slightly related, but whenever I see high heels in video games I'm reminded of this comic by Double-XP:

Propaganda and surveillance. If you’re communicating in the open, it’s trivial for a non-coöperating receiver to tap in. And it’s only a touch more trivial for a non-coöperating sender to join in on the rabble. You cannot have a private and public communication protocol.
I wonder how that will affect older devices, like Android TV streaming boxes, where you use the assistant through the remote.

I see that the article mentions this, but I'm skeptical. I think that the assistant will just be switched off, and that will be it; no more using the older Android TV box to ask for today's weather or search for videos.
Or how about 999 additional computers? They could be really tiny ones, running some kind of operating system designed for putting inside small single purpose machines. You could also add a coloured light on the front of each one and a button that says "copy to NAS".

Shift-Left Testing with Testcontainers: Catching Bugs Early
The comparison doesn't have to be with homicides. "Every demographic does X at about the same rate" is such a flat-out wrong assumption that you'd really have to cherry-pick X, with lots of caveats and conditions, for it to hold true.

I think there's an ingrained sense of revulsion, in all of us that live in the cultural era that descended from Enlightenment ideals of equality for all, against the idea that there exist observable group-level differences on nearly any metric you could think of, but that doesn't make it any less true.
let's assume you are right. Also assume that the two people in the dark room are both somewhat rational investors. Then let's imagine that they are trading at a price that is significantly different than the open price. Why are they both OK with that price? If the price is higher, the buyer could be buying for less in public. If it's lower, the seller is the one that could sell in public for a profit. So one of the two sides is making an obviously bad decision.

The idea instead is that in a dark room, you can trade large amounts of shares without HFT interference. They'll probably be trading pretty much at the public price, just without sending all kinds of information about the fact that they traded into the world.

Yes, I think the story of Catholicism actually points to the idea that ignoring or even defying the norms of your community as part of an effort to form an alternative community is often more effective than trying to stick it out long enough to earn the clout to reform it. Luther's 95 theses were distributed in 1517 but the Catholic Church did not seriously reform their use until the Council of Trent in 1563, when their sale was banned. By that point a fifth of Europe was Protestant.

The spirit of the law is that corporations only pay taxes on profits.

The "fair share" crowd don't seem to ever consider that a corporate tax isn't a given. The money that passes through corporations gets taxed through many means. The economic activity they create creates tax revenue that would otherwise not be there, even without showing a profit.

Because of that, there's a very reasonable, non-corporatist argument that they could just not pay taxes at all and it would generate just as much tax revenue. It's not a given that they should.

In public pools and many public beaches, there are lifeguards assigned to monitor same. These are people in excellent physical condition and trained in rescue operations. Furthermore, they are paid for their services by government entities.

> Ok, but why can't they do it without that? Why are billions being spent on providing supplies to countries instead of developing their domestic industries?

Why can't people swimming in pools or oceans not put themselves in distress? Why are monies spent on providing lifeguards to swimming areas instead of developing their ability to not drown?

In fact, doesn't providing them with lifeguards make it impossible for their developing the ability to not drown?

100% I wish more people paid attention to the _methodology_. A lot of people define science as the search for "truth", where it really it is the methodology that makes it the key differentiator from religion. The process of hypothesizing then subjecting a theory to rigorous, rational, evidence-based scrutiny is THE key differentiator.

Of course the libc allocator is slow, it's designed as a one-size-fits-all solution that's poorly tuned for most workloads and often doesn't get substantially updated for decades. By writing your own, you aren't avoiding an allocator, you're just avoiding the libc implementation of an allocator.

(In fact, most libcs let you just redefine the malloc(), free(), and realloc() functions to point to your own allocator instead of the default one, so you don't have to rewrite all the functions calling them. E.g., the mimalloc allocator [0] can be configured as a drop-in replacement for the libc allocator.)

Your stuff is interesting but I remember reading about GEGL and non destructive editing coming to Gimp back in... 2008?

So your stuff will probably happen after you retire.

There's some nuance here. Even the most battle-tested system, with distinct slots for executable code and primitive values, might have a way in which an untrusted primitive input can overrun a buffer, or be split in an unsafe way, and cause unexpected behavior. But there's a vast difference in attack surface between that, and "just give us a string, don't worry we'll sanitize it on our end."

It's all about defense in depth. Even a system that's tested all the way through with Coq or similar is still at the mercy of bugs in the specification or in underlying system libraries. But intentional API design can make it materially less likely that a security issue will arise, and that's worth a heck of a lot.
