That is a separate topic but recent congressional hearings would be a great way to research. The point that I am making is that both of these topics were censored as fake news, and neither is probably false.

I agree with your premise here, but both of these topics were censored to the point of removing accounts that discussed them under the assumption that they were fake news. This is the problem with censoring anything.

Was the idea that COVID-19 leaked from a lab in Wuhan fake news? Is the idea that the vaccines may have side effects worth understanding fake news?

That is what was defined as fake news and actively censored in our very recent past.

The problem with censoring fake news is that ultimately someone has to decide what is real and what is fake, and once censored, it becomes very difficult to discuss and revise that decision.

tl;dr - New emissions standards reduced sulfur dioxide emissions from cargo ships.

The emissions were seeding reflective white clouds that were offsetting up to half the temperature increase that would have occurred without them. Now all that warming is happening at full strength.

Great topic, why bury it in verbosity?

The first order problem is how do we compensate those whose performances and art were unique and recognizable before computers could imitate them.

However we solve for that will tell us if and how we can motivate people to make all the tradeoffs needed to stand out and bring new unique art into the world.

I am hoping we land somewhere in between the extremes of "no copyright use" and "what's a copyright" and create a royalty system that can trace your content's influence on the weights used at inference and cut you in according to your contribution.

They got more attention with this apology than they would have gotten with any ad, at least from this crew.

Please charge something. In order to trust my notes somewhere, I need it to be in someone's best interest to keep my data and not grow bored or overburdened by costs.

I desperately want a simple, cross-platform, online or offline, fast note taking app. Evernote was this maybe 10 years ago before the bloat. I beg them every feedback opportunity to get Team features, chat, AI, and never ending upgrades out of my face. When I open the app it is because I either have a quick thought to capture or I need to retrieve one. That is the worst time for a distraction.

Please charge a profitable amount and take my money.

Completely disabling JavaScript is a no-go these days. But Firefox+NoScript is both enlightening and refreshing. Did you know that CNN tries to run JavaScript from more than 30 domains on the front page, but is functional and ad-free after enabling 2 or 3?

The Add-on allows you to enable or disable specific domains serving JavaScript, and automatically save those preferences for later visits. I find that I only notice the add-on for a few days on a new device before it is tuned. After that, the only thing I notice is how slow and garbage-laden the same sites are when I'm on a computer without my setup using e.g. Chrome

YMMV but I have been NoScript-ing for 2 years and won't go back by choice.

What other popular systems might lead to different outcomes based on sort order? Dating site matches? Your own contact list?

Interesting category of problems...

I got news for ya... We are already there. Interest on the US national debt will become the top expense this year, $1.6T or more than 30% of tax revenue...

Does the magic color need to be within the frequency range that the camera and video format can record?

We do pretty well with a free-tier Slack instance. They only keep a rolling 10k messages or so, but this seems to be enough for more than 100 friends and colleagues to keep comm lines open.

LinkedIn could be a model for making vouch-networks as we fight the evil bots(or more accurately the evildoers who abuse neutral bots)

I know the Boeing safety reputation is a bit tarnished of late, but how many people are stepping on an aircraft called "Boom"?

Elon Musk appears to be a counter-example...

"All availability rests on some assumed radius of safety", thank you for that! If this is not a named law could you name it? I have needed this statement in the past but it never came together like that.

It certainly seems ironic that the company that beat Intel at its own compatibility game with x86-64 would abandon compatibility with today's market leader.

I use GrapheneOS, even that can't protect you from Google unless you are willing to live 15 years in the past.

Any app beyond the absolute basics uses the (yes, sandboxed) Google Play store. But almost every Google play store app then uses Google Play Services to read your location etc., so you have to give that data to Google's software first if you want any app to work.

To get around it every app (or at least the ones like Lyft/Uber and airline apps that you need to move around) will need to be rewritten to avoid Google Play Services.

A noble dream solution, but even in this case there will be folks who try to collect the UBI of others in addition to their own.

Alignment to _what_? Humans aren't aligned without AI, what exactly will AI be aligned to?

What other companies out there that seem to behave in a villainous way? Uber under Kalanick? Oracle?

We can have ChatGPT talk to itself by simply opening two chats and pasting back and forth. But the LLM can't win: if it notices then it will be called "wrong" because it is talking to another instance of itself. If it does not notice then it is "wrong" because it failed to notice.

I use Tailscale with an exit node to proxy my traffic through my home connection. This is undetected even though I am about 500 miles from home.

Thee? Thou must assuredly have encountered thine pronoun in formal works before...

HSV-1 (cold sores) might be the ultimate example of success, it manages to spread essentially invisibly.

Is there a knowable "right" value? What should it be now? Otherwise this sounds like a circular "no true Scotsman" situation.

What do you expect him to do, give up his vision and disappear?

Not replacing, augmenting. Try to find ways to use the new tools to become more productive than other engineers. Help evolve integration and deployment frameworks to handle the snippets from LLMs in the context of larger projects with a minimum of glue.

I wouldn't be surprised to see some old ideas come back to life like encapsulation concepts from enterprise software development. But this time we let LLMs deal with the boilerplate code needed to use and connect them.

Or maybe we can call it "Tell net" when using audio

This could be applied to society as a whole. Currencies are an abstraction on bartering which is an abstraction on doing every task required to support your life and family yourself. Each layer of abstraction creates a specialization and efficiency. Those who consume the abstractions may lack the details, but they have levers long enough to move mountains! Those who provide them have a valuable role. Don't be afraid, we must keep making more.

I think it's fundamentally possible but the training set needed might be so large that you're better off just actually cataloging the DNA of most humans and pulling up the picture of the closest match.
