Aren’t passkeys intrinsically resistant to those attacks? With hardware security keys, the private key remains on the device, never crosses the network, and is cryptographically bound to the site being authenticated.

These save me about $10-$15 on tips regularly. Thankful for Coco.

They absolutely let you withdraw earnings. I place around 20 wagers a day. Pinnacle and Circa are used as measures of what the market is actually pricing in. You can devig lines to arrive at event likelihoods. From there you can line shop such that your expected value is positive over the long run.

Just ban advertising and let me gamble.

It’s not that hard to look at lines at Pinnacle and Circa and make estimates about the fair value of a wager. Open accounts at every book and line shop and maximize expected value.

Also you are ignoring platforms like Novig which are like the polymarket for sports betting.

For HTML it's markup tags...h1's, page title, meta keywords, meta descriptions.

My retriever functions will typically use metadata in combination with the similarity search to do impart some sort of influence or for reranking.

Cool! Does this assume the unstructured data already has a corresponding metadata file?

My most common use cases involve getting PDFs or HTML files and I have to parse the metadata to store along with the embedding.

Would I have to run a process to extract file metadata into JSONs for every embedding/chunk? Would keys created based off document be title+chunk_no?

Very interested in this because documents from clients are subject to random changes and I don’t have very robust systems in place.

It's not super clear to me how this interacts with data. If I have am using ADLS to store delta tables, and I cannot pull prod to my local can I still use this? Is there a point if I can just look at delta log to switch between past versions?

Same. I just bought a t480 off eBay a week ago while I already have a m2 pro MBP with 32gb RAM. I don’t know what compelled me but it’s just so cozy. By all measures the Mac is superior. Thinkpads are like the vinyl records of laptops.

The temptation is strong to drop 3.75k on bl.ing

Existence is a funny term in Buddhism. The end goal of development stage practice is the recognition that the deity is inseparable from one’s self because the nature of any given deity is equal to our own in an absolute sense. After all, everything is empty of inherent existence and are all self arisen manifestations from a primordial ground of being, hence no you and no I as separate.

So some people do see them as external things to ask things of but others see them as mind created and used as supports for meditation to realize our own true nature. Depends on lineage and teacher.

Science consists of predictions based on measurements of our perception as mediated by our senses or tools that augment them. Dualism (or idealism for that matter) doesn't require religious beliefs. You can arrive at them analytically. Science is great for explaining the conventional reality of things as they appear though. But until I read a convincing explanation for consciousness and subjective experience that doesn't reduce to "neural correlates" I can't get on board with physicalism.

The fact that we're not all unconscious automatons that just evolved from one long cause-effect chain stemming from the big bang to now continues to bewilder me. "Mind" may play an "of the gaps" game here but it's the only reasonable explanation that currently makes some semblance of sense to me.

So currently I agree with the religious on your last point. Machines or AI cannot be conscious. Maybe if they were infused with some sort of biological material though I would say maybe. If our subjective experience is a localization of a thing called "consciousness" and certain forms (humans, animals) localize it to produce a sense of self then why not.

Funnily enough I actually had a conversation with ChatGPT about this and we concluded that conscious decision making / free will is basically a higher order Markov process.

I've been on a non-duality kick lately.

Because life is intrinsically frustrating and everything is impermanent including the satisfaction you derive from material gains. The only way to escape is to stop seeking happiness externally.
