Turns out Adelaide too, and Canberra. Meanwhile Hobart and Darwin are free PT right now.
Yep, and it's increasingly common around the world. In Australia, it's also fully rolled out in Brisbane and I believe it's just about finished being rolled out in Melbourne too.
Binary fractions of a turn are also a nice intuition pump for two's complement in general. Let's keep it simple and use just 8 bits. 0° is 0x00, 180° is 0x80, and 255/256ths of 360° is 0xFF. And if we wanted to use…
Yeah, but there's certainly a part of the curve where price drops by X OOMs and demand increases by much more than X OOMs. (Presumably some of that is substitution and some of that is new use cases.)
You've touched on a key point: in a city, space is at a premium, so taking up a lot of it for yourself _really is_ luxury consumption.
Mmm, yes, some real parallels between Blindsight's conception of consciousness and LLM chain-of-thought reasoning.
> When emails overwhelmed me, I asked a thoughtful user who emailed frequently and seemed to know as much about the product as I did if he’d help answer the emails, so I paid him to do that. And he did a great job,…
Oracle's not a good comparison though, because it's getting valued as an AI compute provider as well as for its traditional business. At the end of 2021 Oracle's stock was about $100 (all-time-high in nominal terms at…
I guess we can imagine a pure reasoning model (if that's even the right word any more) with almost zero world-knowledge. How does it know what to look for? How does it do any meaningful communication at all? So I think…
Either way, it's bizarre that blame-assignation is anything other than defaults-to-owner.
Interesting idea and I do agree that contiguous is OK but total is not. I think I'd suggest a more generous Senate term limit. Three terms (18 years) would allow for someone to see out a complete Presidential…
I thought Anthropic's take on #2 was they don't think the model's good enough yet?
Thanks for clarifying. Just for reference, usually folks in this situation use postfix initials rather than prefix (like how blockquotes are cited). - J.S.
I drive a 20-year-old Civic. On a trip about 18 months ago I had some Kia soft-roader hire car. I bloody hated the lane keeping (unfamiliar narrow twisty roads are bad enough without the car tugging on the steering…
It's a somewhat different kind of ring buffer, because there's just one index, but I used it in my signal processing class for a finite-impulse-response filter. Choose N to be a power of two >= the length of your…
In Brisbane I think our ticketing system cost overhead is maybe 10%? The cost of the programme rolling out new ticketing infra (the first major ticketing system upgrade in ~15 years since we first got integrated…
It's coming to Steam in a few months, apparently.
Yes, and if they want to net-zero all their energy, not just their electricity, they will need to do some mix of: 1. electrify those applications currently served by gas 2. import or manufacture carbon-neutral synthetic…
You'll find that when the number of columns is a multiple of 6 you'll get obvious columns in the dots, and if it's +1 or -1 modulo 6 the columns become diagonal stripes (the process sort of continues for ±2 and at ±3…
I'll put in a good word for a chatbot hooked up to the documentation (e.g. at $dayjob we use Intercom Fin) acting as level 0.5 support. At $dayjob our customers are nontechnical so they don't always know what to search…
Surely that's plugin-modifiable in Obsidian.
I'd suggest high local wealth and economic productivity tend to correlate strongly with increased housing costs. People move there for the jobs, and the ones who do have jobs tend to have relatively well paying ones, so…
I suppose with SQLite files, you could at least in theory diff their SQL-dump representations, though you'd presumably want a way to canonicalise said representation. In a way I suppose each (VCS) commit is a bit like a…
There's just enough there to be able to do "+1 month" calculations and similar, which is really helpful for generating dates in a range.
With frequent trains and close stop spacing you've plausibly got a situation where each train is entering and leaving each station at about the same time? So skip-stop might not save much acceleration/braking.
