He is probably talking about the "520" Marriage Day. May 20 is a popular national marriage day (due to tradition) and many couples choose to get marry on that day in China.
This year's 520 marriage rate is ~40% of last year's.

Note that this is official Chinese gov statistics. Their numbers are known to be untrustworthy.
1. Someone comes up with a cool feature.
2. Browser developer refuses to incorporate it since "No one uses it!". Pushes developed in-house technology instead.
3. No one uses the feature as a result. "See no one wants it!"
4. Competitors start to implement the feature
5. ???
And no, pollyfill is again not the (right) solution.
If you become homeless after 6 months of moving, you weren't financially stable to begin with.
EDIT: It's a moot point anymore. The fact is, they are in Vancouver and are homeless. We should help them regardless of where they came from.
That's an interesting idea, but the smaller BC towns also have their own homeless issues. I don't think their municipal gov would be open to the province providing relocation resources to these people.
Also East Hastings draws vulnerable in, and has an iron clad grasp on them. These people might not want to move due to friends/nearby support non-profit/substances.
Finally, some of them have drug addictions after they move to Vancouver. There should be resources to help them exit first.
But just as Oakland/LA/SF and California are passing the bucks, the federal and provincial government are pretending they are deaf and expect the local BC municipals to handle the national homeless crisis. This is simply not possible.
Vancouver is doing a lot more for homeless people than SF/LA and it is still not working.
>In the City of Vancouver’s 2019 homeless count, based on those who responded, 16% (156 people) of the homeless reported they were from an area elsewhere in Metro Vancouver, while 31% (299 people) were from another area of BC, and 44% (435 people) from another area of Canada.
Where is the data backing up your claim?
Vancouver has the same approach- warmest place in Canada.
When I suggested active intervention (eg. force detox), the activists would accuse me of treating homeless people as sub-humans, that I am being cruel and inhumane and a monster, and that we should give them (the users and the NGOs) money and safe-supply drug and leave them alone on the street.
Or "dollar-store leftover", or "generic supermarket brand"
Humans like to insult by comparing the target to something perceived to be inferior. AI is perceived to be inferior humans for most tasks, so we can be prejudice against AI (and without the discrimination societal pushback.)
Wait till AI catches up, then "a Japanese knockoff" becomes a complement.
Or AI becomes a societal group and you become a social pariah if you use their name in a mean-spirited way.
What about musician training? Movie directors?
Ouch.
What seemed to happened was
1. The probe descended normally.
2. Glided horizontally over a 3km deep cliff of a crater
3. Sensor suddenly gives large altitude change
4. Onboard computer sees the sensor value change is larger than expected, deduced the sensor is mis-reading, and filtered the (correct) value.
>as the lander was navigating to the planned landing site, the altitude measured by the onboard sensors rose sharply when it passed over a large cliff approximately 3 kms in elevation on the lunar surface, which was determined to be the rim of a crater. According to the analysis of the flight data, a larger-than-expected discrepancy occurred between the measured altitude value and the estimated altitude value set in advance. The onboard software determined in error that the cause of this discrepancy was an abnormal value reported by the sensor, and thereafter the altitude data measured by the sensor was intercepted. This filter function, designed to reject an altitude measurement having a large gap from the lander’s estimation, was included as a robust measure to maintain stable operation of the lander in the event of a hardware issue including an incorrect altitude measurement by the sensor.
For the first time, I am seriously considering switching to an iPhone. My parents used iphone since the 3G, so I am very familiar with them.
I have always hope that Android would catch up with iPhone in most metrics, but lately I feel Android is falling further and further behind, paradoxically as Android gains more and more features.. If iPhone does not exist, Android would be seen as perfectly fine. But iPhone does exist, and all the shortcomings in Android sticks out uncomfortably when comparing to iPhone.
1. Crap-tastic stability when Pixel6/Android 12 was released. I have not used a more buggy phone that crashed every week, or crash in the middle of a call, or a long list of bugs that I encountered during my usage. The OS eventually got better after a year of release, but that meant that I had to deal with the bugs for a year straight.
2. Things that work 80% as well as iPhone, but never exceed them. For example the fingerprint reader remains inaccurate for my right thumb, but not for my other fingers. Other issues include performance issues with videos (this got a lot better in the last 6 months), or batter life issues.
3. Everything is disjointed. To view photos, there is a File app, but then there's an Google Photo app. Somehow Favourites are not shared between the 2 apps.
The uncensored models were better in terms of heading towards the direction of correct ideas, but still performed poorly in my tests. But hey, at least the models has the right idea.
I can't share exact examples on HN, for obvious reasons.
As an aside, I was testing LLM models to translate Japanese visual novels. As some of these novels have sexual descriptions, I found the censored models did a poor job on these scenes and had to switched to uncensored models for better output (including the Wizard 13B model released by the author.)

In total, imports from the EU, excluding precious metals, hit £82bn whilst exports to the EU were valued at £49.2bn. This represents an increase of 7.5% in imported goods and a decrease of 6.1% in exports.
The UK’s total imports of goods decreased by £3.5bn (-2.1%) in Q4 2022 compared with Q3. Goods imports from non-EU countries fell in this time period (10.4%).
Exports of goods over the same period decreased by £4.5bn (4.5%), with exports to both the EU and non-EU countries falling.
Starship is grounded regardless, and most definitely not 'indefinitely' in the same sense that your mother tells you 'no more candy until I say so.'
So many words for nothing we don't already know about.
Also a bit ironic that the picture the author chose for highlighting FSD crashes didn't happen on a freeway.
The corruptions were identified by scrub after an unexpected restart, but the files were already corrupted before that (the system that was using the iscsi target behaved strangely whenever it accessed the drive.)
