So then there is no reason for amazon to enforce industry wide price fixing as described in this article if its just about logistics.

just read a book on Bayesian stats bro. Probably just the intro of most of them will get you to your answer.

You should try with reasonix. It is designed to maximize cache hits. It seems less featurefull in its current state than open code and omp but I am getting a 99% cache hit with reasonix making my costs insanely cheap.

More like company B purchases a construction company and changes nothing but number go up for shareholders while wages stay stagnant for people producing actual value, as they have for decades.

What about their family? What about staffers? What about anyone in the room when insider information is being shared? Good first step but plenty of ways around this. Not really that significant.

Do stock trading next.

Add it to the list. Here are just a few more of their flagrant privacy violations.

Facebook/Meta pays teens to install a VPN so they can snoop on user traffic and decrypts competitors traffic (Snapchat) under guidance of Zuckerberg himself. [1]

Facebook/Meta covertly backdoors users phones [2]

Facebook requests phone number for 2FA and then uses for ads/tracking without disclosure [3]

Is this AI? It reads like a conglomerate of hacker news career articles. Am I the only one seeing this?

I am sure it is scary to see young people have reactions to vaccines but if you compare the rates of the side effects in comparison with the rate in those who do get COVID you'll see that, in that context, they are indeed minor

Any manned mission in the next 100 years or so to the surface of a moon or planet is basically unnecessary and just to show we can. I am not saying this is a bad thing - but much of the reasons we haven't had manned missions is because it isn't worth it. Robots can do most of what we can do already and what they can't we can do remotely. There's really not a great science reason to send people with our current technology. Robots are already the real explorers.

I think this article makes one assumption that isn't correct. "This means that even though Valve will be selling this hardware at a loss..." From the reviews I have read, Valve is not planning on doing this. They are not doing an Xbox type of deal where games are overpriced and console is cheap. If I am not mistaken, I got this information from the LTT review where they talked with Valve about this directly.

Ya that’s completely false lol. Lots of reasons to criticize LA, being cloudy isn’t one of them

What’s it going to be next month?

Found the meta PM that thought of this idea

One can memorize a piano piece, write out the notes on a grand staff and tell you all the different musical patterns in it, but if they never put there hands on the keys they won’t be able to play it. Rote learning is part of learning. This trope that’s gotten popular that if you teach concepts the rest will follow is just false. You need both.

No it’s absolutely the correct term. What are you a BBC anchor?

I first used GPT 2.5 many years ago through a google colab notebook. These newer models aren’t all that much better. I’m sure they do better on their tests because they’re trained to beat them but really the biggest “innovation” was a UI and API.

I wonder how free hosting services like netlify and vercel handle this? If a free tier user gets spammed do they just pass the cost on? I can't imagine that is the case so they must have some protections built in.

Oh on a browser client - yes that makes sense. I made a bad assumption that you managed to block them on streaming devices like roku or apple tv.

What do you use that blocks ads from streaming services? I’ve had no luck.

Interesting thought, but significant technologic “break throughs” almost never come from the private sector. A “break through” is just luck, and countless years working on a problem incrementally. That doesn’t typically return profits.

Except uv doesn’t support conda so there goes many of the niche scientific packages required for many users like me. Someone please prove me wrong because I do love uv when I can use it. I’ve found pixi to be an ok alternative but not nearly as fast.

You know at first glance I thought the Shell Oil Company was asking for volunteers.

So the "real" solution is market competition right to make a healthy market- how do we get that? History has repeatedly shown that large corporations hate competition because it means they have to do something to make money. Anyone who comes up with a new idea is just copied or consumed. Sounds to me like the idea that a "free market" is a healthy market is only healthy for the owners of large corporations.
