Why would it? The only thing needed to get rid of plastic is destroying it's key advantage over other materials (price) either by force or will.
I am very convinced that science will bring us a better material e.g. by looking at nature if we are "forced" to do so, this can be through market force, e.g. oil becoming just too expensive. I'm thinking long term here.
Landfill is the only solution that is guaranteed to fail. We're living on a quasi-infinite planet with a population that is to this date increasing. It will be easier to get new resources onto the planet than it is to get them away from the planet and stuff piling up indefinitely is clearly infeasable.
wouldn't a healthy - "we screwed up - why is that, how can we fix it" - be the right shift in company culture?
If Boeing officially states "we're fine with both options, NASA you decide" (according to NASA press conference) they should not be blaming anyone from that point. I understand that this comes from a tabloid and might not represent the company but clearly there seems to be a statistical relevant amount of screw ups at Boeing and none of that happening at SpaceX, why the hate, why not learn?
(This will lead nowhere..) but hearing someone claim theft, which is a well defined term, usually involving physically taking something from someone is so much of a statement like confused billionaires claiming a "woke mind virus".
Have we left the ability behind to make informed discussions?
Germany, to this day, has been unable to fix their nuclear waste treatment. There is no single approved upon solution for radioactive waste and recently it became clear that even some facilities need to resurface and relocate waste which, again, has no clear path after decades. I'm sceptical that any of the recent "influencer campaigns" (it feels like that for me watching x/ twitter) have ever addressed this.
I today came to my raivo OTP - a popular iOS 2FA app - just to be greeted with an initial setup screen.
Upon completing setting up a new master password I came to an empty screen. I'm locked out of all my providers without any warning due to an update that resets the application (thanks iOS for auto updating).
The "file bug" link in the app item leads to a deactivated github issue section and the maintainer is closing and deleting comments that people - in understandable panic mode - leave in PRs.
I'm aware that I can restore 2FA with backup codes, still this behavior is highly unprofessional and people should be warned IMO to switch to a trustworthy application and avoid the developer of this application completely.
wait, arent these previews just images? whenever I worked on making these previews work with twitter, telegram etc I used opengraph tags (and similar) or dynamically created them (react).
I find the title a bit misleading. Looking at 'Her' I expect agentic behaviour with memory that I'd likely interact with for long periods of time, the proposed applications seems to be not remotely similar to this expectation.
According to the PR on github this is likely just a bug with the implementation that makes htop (etc) display wrong RAM usage numbers. It seems as of now as there is "no magic happening". People reported much higher actual RAM usage. The author acknowledged that it might be a bug when he posted the PR.
Petals is an impressive feat but be aware it is very slow with 1-4 sec / token (depending on the hardware you have). I find it too slow for even experimenting, as a developer I want faster feedback cycles. Super interesting to see the project evolve over time, onboarding could not be easier.
has anybody found out where to get the original weights checksums? all the repos are still promoting loading untrusted pickled data via torrent with no means of verification that this is the original data provided by fbook.
Seriously, the page is frustratingly broken on Firefox, kinda works but pages won't move reliably. Works fine on chrome.
