Just this morning on my bike ride to work, a Cruise car was sitting in the middle of a road after turning right at an intersection. It was almost blocking the road entirely. The cherry on top was the Waymo that was stuck on the other side o

Without motive, this is just speculation. But, mental health / stability of pilots is not an easy thing to track, as the GermanWings crash taught us[0]. [0] https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/the-madness-in-our-metho..

What is the rationale behind the third party doctrine?

The best solution I can think of would be to start mass producing audio deepfakes of politicians that are clearly ridiculous, to the point where people know that it’s fake. Flood the market with that, and people’s trust will degrade, and

I am in Amsterdam right now. Two things you notice quick when you are where Dutch people actually live (i.e. outside of Centraal): first, that it is remarkably quiet, and second, that cars are remarkably loud. The loudest vehicles are the m

Not quite, you can define an illegal move as losing the game, and winning/losing is a “meta-observation” - ie if the player wins/loses, you don’t invoke another search.

You end up having to do a lot of things in a ML training run, some of which you can do in parallel because it’s not important now (eg saving metadata) or because you’d otherwise be resource limited (eg loading data and formatting batches fo

totally! MuZero is my favourite[1] The super cool thing about MuZero is that it learns the dynamics of the problem, i.e. you don't have to give it the rules of the game, which makes the algorithm very general. For example, DeepMind thr

but also, why the heck are they making another wonka? I don't think that the big studios are worth watching anymore - they're attempting to maximize expected ROI, not make a great movie (which is understandable in their position).

Functiontrace is very good! I’ve used it a lot for hammering down bottlenecks, and it is easy to drop in to a script

Magnesium reacts with water, so I assume that another metal would be used to make some stable alloy?

Ah yes, good ol’ bureaucratic retribution for questioning the bureaucracy. If Harvard administrators give this student a harder time because of the piece they wrote, aren’t they proving the students point, to a certain extent? Also, how wou

This seems incredible! If we put aside questions on how to collect the data, does this not suggest that we would be able to "read minds" (intentionally left vague) with an FMRI?

Yea - could someone shed some light on this? What would the FDA have to do with an app like this? What risk to the public could an app like this pose? “We had to get an independent security audit and submit it for FDA clearance” Se

Well, I mean... if Boeing is so corrupt and/or incompetent to let TWO of their airplanes full of people crash because of bad engineering / bad ops, perhaps we can have an opinion on the matter? If retraining those pilots, mechanic

What are repercussions for this act? I.e. what will the tourist be charged with? Simple vandalism seems way too lenient.

WRT boot times, yep it can take a little bit. There are packages like revise [0] or daemon mode [1] that ameliorate this issue while developing the code- and if it is a long running script like DL training, a long startup time will not matt

Maybe I need to be more precise: neither party of the political establishment is remotely palatable to me. I rarely see anyone who is running who seems interested in changing that, and even if they were, most people I know are not going to

Ah! Gotcha, I misunderstood your position. Sorry for the misunderstanding! I think we are in more-or-less the same / similar position.

I mean, as of the last several years, IMO it is wise to be anti-political - it has been pretty disgusting across the board. But I'll take your point that there is certainly leverage to be had in backing an up-and-coming politician who
