A bit off topic, bye does anyone know why those monopolistic companies (bell Rogers) stocks are doing relatively poorly compared to even the US index?

We are slowly moving in that direction, but I see almost 0 chance for it to happen in 2023

It feels like humanity is walking the very thin line separating utter utopia and absolute hell.

And as technology is getting better, both of those outcomes become more probable.

Ok, Assuming the it’s a well known hash it seems a bit more secure.

Can’t do any searches on people based on the iris.

I’m obviously way out of my depth here, But,

How is this different than a tiny magnetized piece of iron ?

Are they saying this piece showing in the video will always float the same way regardless of orientation ?

Also would this effect still work with an electromagnet ?

Does anybody know if the actual iris information gets stored, or it’s just a hash of it ?

Seems like there is no reason why the iris picture needs to be stored. But I’m not sure of the whole use case

Serious question, Can this pen effect be simulated, and still be printed with a regular printer ? Would there be a difference then ?

Are the any options that are small enough to make a remote contact radio ?

Basically something I can take with me while hiking, and have somebody else in civilization listen and have some conversations with ?

There might be a difference in battery capacities, but if you can swap out batteries, I’m going to guess there is going to be an aftermarket battery that will be much better than what Apple ships the phone with.

Maybe those batteries will be bulkier or something but I don’t think people care about better battery that much with current performance.

I got turned off by that as well, but I submitted the form anyway, and it loads correctly. I guess no fill in means *

A lot of words to describe bayes rule

I am guessing they mean SQS queue … so basically the SQS aid doing what is supposed to: - try to process event - send to DLQ if it fails - there’s a redrive button in the DLQ to … well restive the events after the lambda is fixed

THIS is what AI art should be like. Hard for humans, easy for computers, amazing visuals. And on top of that it functional as well.

I feel like this is closer to how human artists create, artists have a set of constraints, and a lot of limitations, and forcing NN to output valid QR codes puts the same constraints on the process itself.

Next step, include the QR reader in the training loop, and make it differentiable to increase the valid output from 1/4 to 100%

What is the reason to do this in military training in the first place?

Does this train you to handle ptsd better ? Makes you more obedient ? What’s going on there ?

I wonder if kids are actually better at surviving than adults in those situations.

Especially young babies, they are very chubby for a reason.

We have to remember that although surviving 40 days without a parent is extreme, it’s probably pretty common in our history.

Any other sources that go into more technical details how those black swan funds work ?

Is there a timed protocol they use to buy those options, or do they just buy when their gut tells them ?

I would be very curious to know how many engineers inside google have as their sole responsibility to fight programs like YouTube-dl and so on.

I am willing to bet it’s a whole division.

Does it do the scraping before you visit the subreddit ? Is there any local caching involved ?

Or are all the improvements from skipping the client side garbage calls?

Just curious about the car maintenance, do you think it is something younger people will not get to experience as much?

I am not super familiar with newer cars, but it seems there is a lot more software in there, and I am wondering if that makes it much harder or impossible to fix some of the newer cars.

So seems we should have the option to work from home, or from office.

Wouldn’t that fix both groups ?

You’re looking at it in a backwards way.

I want to work from home. And while I understand warehouse workers cannot wfh, I think they should get paid regular wage for their commute time.

Don’t go back in time.

Do you actually think the software industry is in a recession because of ai hopes ?

I think it’s more likely the boot camp type that are over saturating the market. Just supply and demand.

Maybe work became the central piece in people’s lives because they don’t have time to devote to other things.

It’s a 40 hour work week, but add in commuting and chores and decent sleep and you’re left with a few hours left for other things.

Hard to build an identity around a few hours of something else.

Not sure what fake means in this context.

Can you prove that any other person you know is generally intelligent, and not just a LLM spewing statistically relevant words ?

You assume they are intelligent based on their actions and abilities, so I guess we will do the same with AI.

Fake in this context is not any more dangerous than a con man (wants to harm, but it’s not competent), which is already pretty dangerous, but not as dangerous as somebody who is capable and interested in harming.

I am a bit worried that AGI as a goal post is too far already.

We have this idea that once we get to AGI we stop research, or that’s when we put a pause and think about how we are going to use this technology responsibility.

I think the issue is, if the computer is more intelligent and capable than 10% of people, then it will already vastly change our world (we’re probably close to this or surpassed it)

I am curious if this is the cheapest aws option for doing such a simple task.

I wonder if there is a way this can be done with a step function, where the price comes out cheaper than spinning up a lambda.

But that argument works the other way around as well.

If the software is already built, it would be the same dev cost to offer 50gb, or 10TB.

Sure there might be some customer support issues that don’t scale the same way, but then why not only offer customer support for higher tiers ?

Maybe poorly architected software, where it’s cheaper to increase the value of a variable than have a bunch of API calls that check the current onDemand price and call different APIs depending on which number is smaller.

It would be nice if a company did the right thing by themselves, not only when the angry mob shows up.

Shouldn’t those prices be affected by moores law ?

I think I remember the tier prices being roughly the same since the service came out.

I get that salaries went up which adds to price, but over time it feels like storage price should go towards zero.
