The ads are in the android app if you select a "smart" tab, like the Social or Campaigns (and I pay for google one, still get those ads). Fortunately I'm never in those tabs on the mobile client.

I would like to take the time to discuss how humanity can make a drone swarm that can fly through a dense bamboo-forest with 30 cm spacing of the trees but fail to make a video player that have any type of time controls in 2022...

Annoying techcrunch links, they go directly to guce.advertising.com to turn around, but the turn doesn't work with things like uMatrix so you just get stuck.. :/

I tried the same in the normal GPT-3, randomness 1.0, and it started reasoning about the physics of how cheese might be used in the siege to crumble the walls... Also be sure to read the reference about the cheese and the friars :) [In medi

Magnus Carlsen famously went into a Lichess Bullet Shield online tournament very late, and clicked 100% on "berserk" mode which means his 1 minute time was cut in half to 30 seconds, and still managed to win 88% of the games and c

You need to loop back the generated output to provide context for the next output, just like how GPT-3 works. This at least establishes the needed data to train for consistent outputs. Given a deep well-trained network, the high-level meta-

As a sidenote, I looked at Circle and wondered a bit where the line is drawn between "bare metal" and "mini OS" :) After all it's a big package with drivers and filesystems and stuff.. I guess at some point you coul

It's the other way around, the Higgs field is the field introduced to break the EW symmetry. It can do this because it is particular in that it has a non-zero vacuum potential, that in essence picks out a "direction" in EW-sp

I'm still scared every time I use rsync because of that and have to thoroughly check the man-page examples :)

They don't just track "a single visit", they bind your surfing of this particular site to your global shadow-profile at FB or Google and then sell this data about you to companies purchasing ads (or worse). This kind of data

Would you want this because its open or because it is free? I've always found SW amazing and intuitive with great help and assist, and sure it's expensive for a hobbyist but for a company it's not a big deal.

Don't know what they used but you can have linked accounts so the billing part is not a problem. With separat IAM users you can still hurt each other as you share the same space for all the services, unless you make some pretty advance

Some operators do this by the SIM, Sierra Wireless as a virtual operator for example has a smart SIM that doles out IMSIs to the modem to use depending on the roaming and signal parameters. This way they can provide global access without op

From the article its main focus vulnerability seems to be setups that don't use VPCs, which is default on AWS since long. It discusses human oversights like a server that needs to accept connections from other servers and where they th

I think so, this has been discussed in many HN threads and it always surprises a lot of people how big of a hole this is. I was certainly not aware of it the first time I read about it. Docker inserts its own iptables rules before your drop

While seemingly intuitive, the idea of a QFT field as a probability field over space is not correct. It usually comes as a shock to anybody entering QFT when they finally realize the actual "probability space" is infinitely larger

By that logic you can't observe anything or explain anything, though. All the force carrying bosons (like the photon) have to interact with fermions (the electrons and quarks that make up your equipment and your body). Some of the inte

Decoherence theory is really somewhat orthogonal to the measurement problem. Decoherence explains how the "collapse" happens gradually if you have a non-perfectly isolated system by seeping entanglement. But at some point you stil

Yes reverse vesting (which is common) means that you start by owning your, say, 33% share from the start and each month you stay your quitting penalty reduces by 1%. So if you quit 1 month in you need to sell back 32% at basically no cost.

Ah ok I see what you mean, I didn't consider shared parameters (out of habit, in my own AI work I have no shared parameters). But isn't the self attention also trainable and thus is reflected in the number of parameters (with or w

Firstly the number of parameters is important in itself due to the finite size of VRAM on the GPU cards commonly available. But secondly the bulk of the ops you do are scalar products (arranged as matrix muls) where one parameter means one

I actually tried to get back to skis last year, rented a pair and went up on the red slope, but damn I had forgotten how to do it :) Felt so strange, it was definitely not any "like riding a bike" feeling of motor memory. I guess

If you fall on the board you roll over and come up again and keep going. On the skis you lose the skis to the right and left and get a spiral fracture of your legs and a hip join breaks off :)

Yeah helmets are absolutely mandatory for all downhill sports regardless of if you're snowboarding or skiing. The last 10 years I haven't seen anybody in any of the mountains here without helmets (something changed in this regard

The learning curve is different for a snowboard, it's hell the first 2 days as it's all based on balance and without balance you'll just fall. With skis you can basically go down most slopes the first day just by plowing and
