Yet it is a captive market. If I am in a building, I only have access to a singular type of elevator. Why not always give the smoothest ride possible unless it is $0.12 cheaper for the installer, so everyone has to suffer forever.

Joke is on me, because while I have a disconnected TV, the Roku I use for streaming likely tattles on everything I watch.

After that it removes (or replaces) Unicode punctuation, performs a SHA1 hashing, and uses the first 8 bytes for deduplication comparisons (paragraph level) Is taking the first few bytes that much faster than comparing the entire ha

"You should really be ashamed of yourself for doing this" is an inappropriate response for basically anything but kicking puppies.

Super frustrating. From the mailing thread: However, this is not good as it remove under-powering range too far. I was getting only about 7% less performance but 90W(!) less consumption when set to my 115W before. Also I wonder if we as

As one might expect, these tapes eventually began to take up space — a lot of it. By investing in Apple stock, Stokes saved enough money to buy as many as nine additional apartments, which she used as storage units to hold all of her t

Any notable highlights for a consumer of Numpy who rarely interfaces directly with it? Most of my work is pandas+scipy, with occasionally dropping into the specific numpy algorithm when required. I am much more of an "upgrade when ther

At least for the lower power draw models, can you disable the fan entirely? Or cut the RPMs in half?

Time is money. You might be a lab with long queues to train, leaving expensive staff twiddling their thumbs.

Even if you did review it, a motivated attacker is not going to have an exfiltrate_user_data(). The xz backdoor exploit was incredibly sophisticated, and one key of the design was sneaking a "." into a single line of a build test

I think it is worth separating the Python ML ecosystem from the rest. While traditional Python environment management has many sore points, it is usually not terrible (though there are many gotchas still-to-this-day-problems that should hav

There have been many subsequent studies which generate evidence in support of the underlying idea. As they say, it only takes one result to disprove a theory, but nobody has been able to do so to date.

Part of the problem is that studying the brain is hard . We have lots of in vitro or mouse models that tell a story, but nothing is conclusive. There have been many orthogonal studies which can replicate some of the associations, but nothi

I think the fundamental problem is that if you want to talk to databases, you have to speak SQL. Like Javascript on the web, you are stuck with what the platform provides. Both languages have significant deficiencies, yet is/was the on

Limited by VRAM is a huge constraint for me. Even if it is slower, being able to load 100GB+ into RAM without any batching headaches is worth a lot. Unless cudf has implemented some clever dask+cudf kind of situation which can intelligently

The aspect of Ikea furniture I like - it is typically stylish. To get an equivalent look somewhere else usually invokes large price increases for seemingly no change in quality. It is definitely not the best quality, but I have moved severa

Absolutely not would I give Apple a free pass either. They can say all the nice things they want about protecting my privacy, but I do not trust any commercial entity will act in my best interest. Especially when they all have government re

Management seems determined to mandate RTO. I am not seeing a flood of alternative perks being offered with suddenly being forced to waste 5+ hours of my life each week commuting.

I really enjoyed how he was struggling to balance the laser with a lightbulb. That seems like one of the worst household objects available for the task.

Given the damage is already done, why not leave it in place? Encase it in concrete and come back in a decade or two when the worst products have decayed?

I get the trick, I am just disputing that you have any deniability if caught. As to the text dumping -I have no idea. I could believe some of the HR screening tools select all text and dump into some structured fields for review. Probably n

I must be missing something - what is the plausible deniability? If someone does a raw text dump of a pdf and gets the hundred new keywords, surely someone would recognize what you did? Or do you just mean, it will silently pass the white t

Is there any kind of grid-scale seasonal storage technology on the horizon? Batteries seem right out from the gate unless the cost drops to 1/10 of current. The only practical one I see is synthesizing a fuel (methane, hydrogen, whatev
