Further, those young people who don't die still take the disease back out into public with them, spreading it elsewhere. This is why simply saying "let people who think they are invulnerable do whatever" doesn't work, b

I submitted a request for access to the GPT-3 API a couple months ago and still haven't been approved. I don't find that to be very open at all.

Eddie and Alex’s father Jan Van Halen was a hell of a clarinetist and was featured on the dixeland track Big Bad Bill from VH’s Diver Down album. Give it a listen, it’s a treat: https://youtu.be/9RPx6A3gKiA

My intuition hates this but intellectually I’m forced to accept it. I’ve handed a huge portion of my private life to Google in the form of my browser, my phone, my search engine, my email, and a handful of other services. I arrived at tha

So if they don’t know the key or where to find it, how is that “publicly known”?

The rear feet are planted and don't move. The two feet in front of those are decorative and never touch the ground. Next two feet contact the ground and move on rollers, then the front feet are again decorative and don't contact

Telephones and computers come apart just fine! The tools and techniques involved might be different, but there's plenty to learn with prying apart a mobile device.

Sounds like they're just using pessimistic numbers to make the point. Even if you multiply the existing datacenter footprint by 4 orders of magnitude, it still only results in a 0.01C raise in temperature.

If the two devices are wired for power and they don’t share a common ground one could imagine some unexpected current running through both devices if the USB ports weren’t properly isolated.

Another perspective is that everyone is paying for the real cost of having their food grown by massive agribusinesses through massive government handouts in the form of subsidies.

There has never been a better time to dive into embedded development! The tools are cheap and easy to get a hold of and the amount of learning resources available is mind boggling. Poking around at the hardware level is neither difficult

If your 3rd party storage provider plays any role in your encryption strategy then I would suggest that you’re probably doing it wrong. Data should be encrypted before it leaves your world and not decrypted until it comes home. That way,

I'd respond that low-cost areas, when compared to San Francisco, includes something like 90%+ of America. Presuming all talent must come from the coasts is missing a pretty wide swath of very qualified candidates who speak your langua

How long does the “high paying” part stay true when companies who need technical talent can now pull candidates from the entire world? I wonder if the move towards remote work might wind up pushing down IT wages across the board. edit: ins

Poster was suggesting high state taxes were to blame, but if that was true, one would also expect that trend to extend to other cities in the same state. If it’s due to remote workers as you suggest, then it should also apply to cities wit

Wouldn't this then also be true of LA or San Jose, both mentioned in the article? It feels like you have a politcal axe to grind and came here to the comments before reading the article.

They are going to have a problem with standing for the exact reason you suggest. This case was one company who was scraping other people’s copyrighted works suing another company for doing the same.

As we have SCPI and the like already available over ethernet, I'd have a hard time with throwing an intentional radiator inside my measurement gear. I have enough noise sources to deal with.

This is quite a reach. VSCode is open source. Some popular extensions are not. Neither extension used as examples here are ones that I use, so they certainly aren’t critical to the product functionality. The argument here feels akin to s

Interestingly, a similar version of these systems was demonstrated back in 2012 which could track individual snow flakes or rain drops. They would avoid illuminating the drops so they wouldn’t reflect back at you, thus reducing glare and a

I think you're confusing copyright for trademark. At least in the US, trademarks require defense but copyright does not.

This brings up an interesting angle on the sorts of eye-watering settlement amounts levied against teenagers we read about so often. Are they all setup this way? Do the rights holders expect to be paid or are they happy to announce an ins

"hopeless poverty" != "attending college". If you chose higher education (at some considerable expense if you're in the states) over basic necessities like food, that was your decision. I don't see how it jus

It appears that you've been downvoted but I believe you are 100% correct. I lost count of how many times "AI" was mentioned in the one pitch I was in the room for.

You don't. The system needs to be able to track an individual throughout the store, and can do so via several measures. If you're just tracking a person as a persistent-yet-moving object, there isn't much of a privacy conce

Good question and I glossed over that interaction so much that I left out the important differentiator - it can _also_ detect that a product was pulled from the shelf and then put back. That is a much stronger signal of intent, and as a re
