Sure the USSR contributed, but the rest of your post is kinda bogus.

Enemy casualties are not the objective of war. They are one means of achieving the strategic objective (defeat of Nazi Germany). Clausewitz has a good quote about this: “The true purpose is normally to occupy that point. Destruction of the enemy’s force is only a means to an end, a secondary matter.”

Further, war is fundamentally economic, so trying to argue that some less efficient means of conducting it is somehow superior is mind-boggling.

I too look forward to playing Eschaton on Interdependence Day.

And then you find you’re powering a residential proxy bot net.

The two fungicides they tested aren’t in common use in US orchards. One is no longer approved at all. Anyway, it would be interesting to test the currently actually used fungicides.

I think it’s also possible to piggyback on other devices signed with the same certificate to exfiltrate using BLE. Maybe I’m wrong though.

LG’s AirPlay requires internet access.

No, they use harnesses or baskets. And there’s a rescue swimmer to make it less likely that you die.

https://youtu.be/1B1dnSf6rPk is one example but there are plenty videos of these guys (heroes).

Sorry I thought I was removing tracking bits from the URL. It’s fixed now.

No, you have to order it from Mouser for $16 instead.

And there’s a little configuration: https://wiki.makerdiary.com/nrf52840-mdk-usb-dongle/guides/n...

I know you’re being snarky, but the US system is not “imperial” anyway. It’s properly “US Customary” but is often called “US Standard.”

Exactly. Being unable to account for this covariate (tobacco use) pretty much invalidates this analysis. The odds ratio for tobacco use is basically the same (3x).

Also, title needs a 2025.

Both Kroger and Albertsons also operate in Texas, in the same cities, often a short distance away from HEB.

Right? Couldn’t they exfiltrate this info through BLE?

So what do you call the tubing around the wire bundle? That’s what we call “loom”.

I did this but using Twilio, a Grandstream HT802v2, and a basic AT&T wall phone. Caller ID sorta works. I really tried to find a phone that would make a satisfying sound when slammed down, but I found that no one makes good, solid corded wallphones any longer.

The toughest part was figuring out which set of wires (my house had like 5 lines somehow) went to that particular jack in the kitchen.

And it’s like they included “use all the hallmark annoying tells of LLM responses in your comment” in their prompts.

Visiting Quebec from the East Coast is great. Driving distance, plus Montreal and Quebec City are both different enough to feel like you’ve gone somewhere different. Plus the people are just really nice.

Should is doing a lot of work there. The reality is most don’t. These are people who don’t understand minimum conductor size trying to DIY a solar system.

I would assume they hire competent engineers, so it’s probably something intentional, like an invasion of privacy/user telemetry. At least it doesn’t have AWS’s UX.

> LLM's are notoriously bad at this. The noise to signal ratio is unacceptably high…

I keep seeing this statement in threads about AI, and maybe it’s just from you, but high SNR is a good thing.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

I think the rest of your post is very valid. It’s the mental equivalent of this article https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47049088

The control freak (commercial one) is worth every penny.

Many of those people have moved to Bluesky. Which has its own issues.

The immunologist’s office weighs these tiny amounts and sends you home with a few weeks’ supply. As you progress and the margin of error becomes less dangerous, you get to weigh it yourself.

See ya at Dave’s next year

“The totality of the data currently suggests that it is very unlikely that the signal in VSD represents a true clinical risk,” the statement said.

Semis are driven by mostly trained and experienced operators. Passenger cars are driven by people checking social media.

It depends on the circulator. If it’s the usual Taco 007, then yep it’ll fail. If it’s an ECM circulator set on delta-P like a Grundfos Alpha, then it won’t mind a bit.

Perhaps there was a guitar in the bag?
