What do you think the debt holders will do with the planes and the other assets?

We recently implemented this idea in an LLVM optimisation pass based on value-range information from sensor datasheets [1].

Nice! I am interested in how the arithmetic you implemented differs from the IEEE 1788 Standard for Interval Arithmetic (and how the two linked papers relate to it). To address the challenges you mention, did you have to start from scratch or was it something that can build on top of the IEEE standard?

Check out also Hyprnote which allows you to do the meeting transcription and note enhancement fully locally, or wherever else you want, with a BYOM approach.

What companies value can change after they’ve grabbed their share. Just like how OpenAI changed their “constitution” about working with others.

I wish there was a way to hold companies accountable for stuff like that.

How come you don’t just send the md5s to delete rather than the shell script?

Power plants are often described in terms of (max) power output, i.e., contribution to the grid. So, I can see how it might confuse a writer to then also talk about storage inadvertently.

But also, the second paragraph already describes the 100 MWh vs MW nuance.

Indeed. For a sorting algorithm it would be more insightful to show it test the actual property of something that is sorted: every consecutive element is larger than the previous one (or the other way around). You don’t need a sorting function to test the “sorted” property.

Can you elaborate a bit further on what you’d need to do and why? It’s been a while since my electrical courses.

I’ve been trying to measure home power consumption with these plugs (and the ones from IKEA) but I’ve been getting suspicious readings for inductive loads.

Yeah. Using the Kalman filter just to determine the position from noisy position measurements really undercuts the capability of the filter to use system physics to estimate the true state.

In one of the most common applications of Kalman filters, autonomous robots (e.g., a robot vacuum or a commercial drone), the filters are around 9 to 12 dimensions.

The number you are seeing is the (USD) price you would pay for one ounce of gold right now. (Not taking spread into account.)

I figured it out! I disabled scripts so the code of the website never ran. Now am not highly unique! (Neither am I “not highly unique” though.)

We designed a processor microarchitecture [1] at the University of Cambridge, inspired by Uncertain<T> (James Bornholt) and related work. In addition to assuming parametric distributions (e.g., Gaussian, Rayleigh), it lets you load arbitrary sets of samples into registers/memory so program values are carried and propagated as nonparametric distributions through ordinary arithmetic.

A spin-off, Signaloid, is taking this technology to market. I'm also researching using this in state estimation (e.g., particle filters).

Out of context, the expression "the uncertainty in the number of trials" would refer to missing knowledge in terms of how many trials actually ran.

In the context of the post this doesn't make sense, so the reader is left to hypothesize what the writer actually meant.

That’s nice. I’m interested in why you went for a complementary filter specifically, if it was enough for your purpose or just the first one you tried out. (I see you reference the ahrs package where there are also implementations for other attitude estimators.)

Even in that scenario, what would stop the likes of OpenAI to instead throw 50M+ a day to the new way of doing things and still outcompete smaller fry?

I don’t understand where this is coming from. Isn’t Meta offering to EU users exactly the choice you are describing? (Even though in the case of the subscription we can’t really be sure they also don’t still use your data.)

How does “passive cooling” work in space?

I initially confusingly read it as equivalent to "all code is alive". Perhaps title should be "No-code is dead".

They are just gonna say that just like that without elaborating?

Core 2 Duo is a pretty funny name.

I remember there was also an Intel processor with the same name.

The N-body _reality_ _might_ be deterministic. The N-body simulation using digital computers will technically still introduce errors because of the time steps even if you had perfect knowledge of initial conditions.

I understand your point and thank you for raising it. The article mainly discussed the UK where a similar steep 40% estate inheritance tax exists for values above a certain threshold. There is also the 7 year rule that completely avoids inheritance tax. Elsewhere in Europe the situation is not as "progressive" and it's more frequent to face inheritance taxes. At the same time, it feels like there are many loopholes around these for the truly wealthy.

Though, the perspective of the article reads like it's accusative of upper middle class families (and not higher).

What kind of capitalism-apologist hot take on parents/families caring for the well-being of their children/members is this? Surely the world is not frequent with Tom-like Oxford-educated actors feeling bad about how good they have it. If some people arrived to the conclusion that they don't have to work because their parents provide for them, then I would argue their parents have failed them in other ways, but not because of what they provided.

Should we decide on a different social contracts where people return things when they die? Sure. But start with the wealthiest please.

I’ve never had a free SEPA transfer. Where is that a thing?

One thing I always accidentally click is the animation-expanding Google results when I return back to the search results after visiting one of the result pages, while trying to quickly visit the next result’s page.

While it works on Wayland for me, it feels much clunkier and less snappy than what it used to be on X.

Why was it halted?
