I am not sure now. But between say 2016 and 2020, every time I'd visit my father I would disable auto play. Next month's visit it was on again. Meta (Facebook back then) was reverting the setting. The problem was not so much auto play itself (already a dopamine and advertising paradise) but the fact it was auto playing audio too.

On a similar note, when are shows (specially live sports streams) going to be fined for playing ads sound with a higher volume (or more compression, whatever).

Yeah. Scrolled through the comments to see if someone had connected this same two dots. I don't care much about my privacy, that ship had mostly sailed. But I do about not training autonomous military devices, specially with how bellicose the world leaders are becoming.

This is completely off. Castellano is the historical name, but both the normative body (Real Academia *Española*) and all government documentation (in as many Spanish speaking countries as I'm aware off, including Spain) refer to it as Español. It is the official recommendation.

There is a movement of calling it castellano in regions with a cooficial language. That's making everything confusing for the sake of giving participation awards. Calling it español doesn't make Galego more or less important, or Galicia more or less included in the identity of Spain as a whole.

Hell, Napolitans, who one could hardly argue they are without pride, call the national language Italiano, whereas some of them speak napoletano.

Nah.

All over Latin America and Spain you can hear both. I'd say Latin America slightly favors "español" and Spain "castellano", but it really changes with region and age group. It originated from the Castilla Crown, hence the name.

The recommendation nowadays is to call it "español" everywhere. And I think that's where it is going. But in Galicia, Basque Country and Catalonia that change will probably come last.

Where did you read the claim that magnetometers cannot be improved? I was just stating that quantum technology has been used by military since, at least, 70 years.

BTW calling atomic clocks "classical" devices (or non quantum) is not something the physics community would be in agreement.

> This is the first time quantum technology has been shown to outperform existing tech in a real-world commercial or military application, a milestone referred to as achieving "quantum advantage."

Then I guess them GPS satellites must be using pendulums for time keeping. Hell the military must be still using valves, as semiconductors must be sci-fi.

What a load of BS.

What the fuck are you talking about. It was posted on /. 24 hours ago. Go back to your hole.

My link takes me to the same link you posted. Is this some kind of meta-reciclying comment?

We all know about Javier Stokes, brother of Navier, right. Damn you autocorrect!

Yeah. The title is phrased like they solved the Javier Stokes blowup or something like that. In reality they found an speed up. I hope that at least this time they decreased the asymptotic order by an integer value and not from N^2.6x to N^2.5x (or something like that) like they did a couple of years ago for matmul.

Simulations of physical and biological systems (including defense) and AI training.

That SystemD you mention is very different to the systemd I use, which lets me handle static IPs and local nameservers just fine.

This is a great answer. Very well put.

Nice. We haven't even gotten out of the last bubble (Tokens and blockchains) and we are already promoting a new one.
