There's a well-known story about a man who escaped a murder conviction because he was at a Dodgers game when the murder happened, and there just happened to be a TV show filming at the stadium that just happened to record him there.

I'd like to think motive and a police sketch wouldn't be enough evidence for a conviction, but that's optimistic.

What you're describing is closer to the DJIA.

Elon Musk.

Aren't these things a jit is better suited for?

There are also individual-level risks. If you capture everything, you might capture bank account numbers when setting up direct deposit or credit card numbers from corporate purchases (these are clearly valid uses of company equipment). In a only slightly less valid use, you might submit a medical claim (using a company benefit), and surveillance software gets part of your medical record.

There are underappreciated liabilities companies take on with this monitoring.

Yeah; without Dennard Scaling, cooling becomes an issue, they're useless to laptops, and you can only double or triple density vs a regular chip before they draw too much power for a home outlet.

> you cant even buy kidney friendly cat food without an expensive Rx from a vet and tons of controls

There are a few law suits over this. Essentially, the claim is that they call it "prescription," but it has no prescription medications in it and isn't approved by the FDA to treat anything. So if you have an extra bag and sell it, this is OK since it isn't actually a drug, it's allegedly a price fixing scheme between vets and pet food makers.

I might be an outlier, but I grew up listening to some genres that have fallen out of fashion, and I don't feel like I need more songs from them--we've explored enough of what they can do. What I miss from the 90's isn't third-wave ska as people trying things and bizarre songs becoming hits.

FT ran this headline a few days ago: French nicotine pouch ban is ‘attack on Swedish way of life’, minister says

> he bigger thing here is just the idea that the alternatives are "Boeing assembly plant" or "data center".

This is a false dichotomy, though. That region has enough land that you could do both. There just isn't much demand for manufacturing in the Upper Midwest right now.

My land destruction deck was fun for me.

My doubts in the architecture is how different they are from human intelligence. They need an inordinate amount of training data and lack any sort of generational architectural intelligence.

uMatrix is very hard on sites by default. When something is glitchy, I assume it's because uMatrix blocked random third-party code.

> multiple tokens are predicted at once and then verified

Reminds me a little of a carry lookahead adder.

Being an accidental or curious tap away from an RCE isn't actually much better. The fix is using sanitizing and safe parsers.

It mostly still just works. Sometimes even with everything enabled, a site won't work.

It's more like "We really value face-to-face interaction, so we're going to track that with your total travel spend. We don't want to get in the way, so there's no budget."

I sort of implied that it needs to be predicable (annual) and less arbitrary (bracketed). A one-off tax sends the message that you can be taxed whenever and for whatever. Unpredictable policy sends a message that somewhere isn't a stable place to live or do business.

The California Billionaire Tax is a bad idea. It's not that wealth taxes can't work (most of the US taxes property just fine), it's that taxes need to be fair and predictable. The phase-in is too narrow and its implementation is too arbitrary. Why $1B? Why $5%? Why won't CA voters hit up billionaires again?

The more reliable guitar tuners do something like this. You clip them on the neck, and they detect vibrations in the wood rather than from sound in the air.

This essentially describing the backward bending supply curve of labor:

My issue with app-style E2E encryption is the app can still see your message in plaintext, and there's no way to verify it isn't doing anything with it.

I read an experiment someone wanted to try where they used pre-1900 content and tried to get relativity. Another version would be train an LLM on school curriculum up until calculus and see if it can invent calculus. Where we are on the curve depends on if it's remixing known things or genuinely inventing things.

From the article,

> ...LLMs have got to the point where if a problem has an easy argument that for one reason or another human mathematicians have missed (that reason sometimes, but not always, being that the problem has not received all that much attention), then there is a good chance that the LLMs will spot it. Conversely, for problems where one’s initial reaction is to be impressed that an LLM has come up with a clever argument, it often turns out on closer inspection that there are precedents for those arguments...

> building across multiple regions and AZs is a thing

If you do this for resiliency, be prepared to pay the capacity tax (2 regions means 2x capacity, 3 regions means 1.5x), have the machines already running in a multi-region setup (don't expect to be able to spin up instances or even get capacity during an outage), and ready to deal with the added complexity of multi-region hosting.

> My guess is that ads online target people with more impulsive buying.

There's a dial between ad relevancy and ad yield. Gambling ads are probably high-yield because of high LTV, so advertisers will spend more, even if impressions don't generate many clicks.

This. They'll be edible, but we don't have a fresh peach shortage, so you don't really want these peaches.

That area doesn't get Colorado River water.

I'm from that area and grew up around those sort of farms. A neighbor actually had peaches. Fruit canning had been in decline for a long time leading up to this (consumers prefer fresh), and most of the producers have long since moved away from canning peaches.

I'm not sure what Trump's levers are with this since it's a civil matter. There's no DOJ--it's publishers and an individual vs. Meta.

> training the LLM in violation of a license

Bartz v. Anthropic found that this is fair use, so the license doesn't play into it.
