Well just look at the price of Uber and Lyft rides. I regularly had single-digit fares on both Uber and Lyft early on. Of course they were unprofitable then. Now that they have gained mindshare they have increased prices drastically.
Uber proposed $43.00 yesterday for a 23 minute drive from park slope to brooklyn heights in New York City, versus $2.90 for a 35 minute R train ride.
I am humbled by how myopic I was in 2010 cheering for a taxi-hailing smartphone app to create consumer surplus by ordering taxis by calling taxi companies.
It's been my experience (~ 4 years ago) that generally taxis were cheaper than Uber in new york, especially for anything like "Get me to the airport", sometimes like $25 cheaper.
In my experience its actually cheaper at least for airport rides. $50 flat through yellowcab app and no surge nor tip when ordered through app compared to $65 at best sometimes well over double during a bad surge.
Airport trips these days are often over $100 for me. What is crazy is yellowcab will take me to my area for $50 flat tip included through their app. We’ve exceeded even taxicabs by this point.
Your HVAC is supposed to recirculate the air using the fan feature. And you don't even need to run it 24/7; I find that running it for a few minutes each hour is enough to get CO2 levels down.
As for the second avenue subway, you should take a look at the stations built. They are large, cathedral-like with full-length mezzanines full of grandeur. I'm not saying it's money well spent, but it's definitely a case where aesthetics is prioritized. In comparison most other subway stations are just overly utilitarian. Or take a look at the WTC Oculus station; that station alone cost $4 billion to build and is now so pleasing to look at that it's a tourist attraction on its own.
I'm sorry but aren't these outcomes good? 12-year old buses should probably be replaced, and a natural gas bus or electric bus will be better than a diesel bus? I do not understand your point.
It's primarily a jobs program. We do not really care about a competitive domestic bus manufacturing industry, but we care more than this uncompetitive industry is hiring workers.
The external communication part of the trifecta is an easy defense. Don't allow external communication. Any external information that's helpful for the AI agent should be available offline, be present in its model (possibly fine tuned).
Sure, but that is as vacuously true as saying “router keeps getting hacked? Just unplug it from the internet.”
Huge numbers of businesses want to use AI in the “hey, watch my inbox and send bills to all the vendors who email me” or “get a count of all the work tickets closed across the company in the last hour and add that to a spreadsheet in sharepoint” variety of automation tasks.
Whether those are good ideas or appropriate use-cases for AI is a separate question.
I don't think the legal framework even allows the patient to make that trade off. Can a patient choose 99.9% accuracy instead of 99.95% accuracy and also waive the right to a malpractice lawsuit?
The linear combination picture is extremely misleading: the gray dots show the linear combinations where the coefficients are integers, but we are in the vector space R^2! This could have been a great opportunity to teach that any vector in R^2 could become a linear combination of these two vectors, thus it could become a new coordinate system.
Even though this is probably introduced in a later chapter, a curious reader will be able to question why the gray dots are form with integer coefficients and leave them with a wrong impression.
Your comment would be just fine without that first sentence. When people share their work, they're putting themselves in a vulnerable position, and there's no need to lead with a smack.
In 2005 you could already buy Intel processors with AMD64. It just wasn't called AMD64 or Intel64; it was called EM64T. During that era running 64-bit Windows was rare but running 64-bit Linux was pretty commonplace, at least amongst my circle of friends. Some Linux distributions even had an installer that told the user they were about to install 32-bit Linux on a computer capable of running 64-bit Linux (perhaps YaST?).
AMD was a no-brainer in the mid 2000s if you were running Linux. It was typically cheaper than Intel, lower power consumption (= less heat, less fan noise), had 64bit so you could run more memory, and dual core support was more widespread. Linux was easily able to take advantage of all of these, were as for Windows it was trickier.
How did I find it? Well I wanted to implement it a while ago and I found it in Closure a library I was already using.
