I've been through every state in this country several times and MA is fantastic for me - not perfect but the best mix I know of and (prices aside) heading in the right direction.

What about an angle grinder or grinder blade on a drill? Those should go through hardened steel pretty easily.

MA is liberal nirvana, but it's also expensive. Strange riff on people being "nice not friendly" but most are fairly well educated (public schools are generally good) and progressive.
Still problems with racism, discrimination, and crime but trying to get better.
New progressive gov and Boston mayor are shaking things up (for the good).

???? I love me some FFTs but "hardware acceleration"?

Stupid, what are they stoned?
Why not just pay the workers 2x because a ton of people will buy around/on that day so paying the bills is good because most MA dispos planned on $4k wholesale and it's now $1300.

Reply to [D] Maybe a new prompt injection method against newBing or ChatGPT? Is this kind of research worth writing a paper? by KakaTraining
Not sure malicious "prompt injection" output given the maturity of the product is of value.
Also the point of your paper would be "injection attacks to break Bing"?

Too generic a question - what data do you use for QC? Why do you think AI is a good fit?
There are a ton of "intro to AI" videos on YT that will explain the main domain areas (problems) where ML is a good fit. Start there.

Reply to Tweksberry, MA? by awaythrowing333
Nice town, Donna's Donuts, Waffle Place, Bowling Alley (and new treehouse place) are all draws. Rt 38 is a depressing drag but has a lot of stuff on it.
I think they closed the airport that went over the arcade?

Derp, yup, my bad, and it's well known that later is better for HS people - towns I'm around it's been 8:30 for a while.
Edit - look at edit in my OP and get back to me about my "correctness"....

Yeah, we should defund them so people could leave their cars for free on the streets forever!
That would solve this problem!

Reply to comment by Nater5000 in Does anyone here use newer or custom frameworks aside from TensorFlow, Keras and PyTorch? by ConsciousInsects
The punchline is, if you need solid results, you can't generally risk the newer frameworks as you end-up debugging and/or not trusting the results (so you validate on other stacks....).
It's sort of close to a meritocracy + most people aren't using the capabilities of the existing stuff...

Reply to Husband of missing Cohasset woman charged with misleading police investigation – Boston News, Weather, Sports by tiny-starship
He lied about something relevant to the investigation, they know he's probably guilty and this will allow them to pursue more warrants (likely cell records) and put him on ice for a little while.

Ooof,

Y: "ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS - they are part of a corrupt system"
M: "So cops shouldn't protect kids?"
Y: "No, they should but they're still bastards".

>Notably, a cop who doesn't personally abuse their power but does allow other cops to abuse theirs is still a bad cop
I think this is a trope now - there is a real push for reform and while I believe the system needs an overhaul, I do believe that progress is being made and new recruits are not "constantly looking the other way"...
Said anther way, if you don't see change then you are not fucking paying attention. A lot of this change is forced (body cameras) but is it making a change? Yes...
While I don't mind people throwing around ACAB - if you really believe it is more than a slogan than you too are part of the problem...
EDIT: If you actually, literally think ACAB than you're a <28 year old male or carry some type of deep trauma that blinds you to the good side of people (and basic logic).
ACAB is just a slogan, if you take it seriously you're both damaged and part of the problem. Domestic violence, gang violence, missing and exploited children are all stuff they have to deal with and if think that cops that work those cases are "bastards" than you lack most of the skills you critique cops for...

Ooof, so an electrician, who knows wiring and code, is more of an expert than someone who actually got a degree in EE? Sort of like a nurse is smarter than a doctor?
Who do you think wrote the code and designed the parts?
Who do you think designed the power grid?
Did you even think about this?
Perhaps demonstrating that you don't now what an EE does while claiming to not trust folks "outside their realms of expertise" is not the flex you think it is?

Reply to 'Harvard Square was never what it used to be' by GlobeOpinion
PRC seemed to somehow ignore the oblitrization/commercialization of the square. Not unlike Faneuil Hall, which became all "Mall Stores" before Malls became extinct.
Used to have small independent shops and restaurants and was a draw even though it was impossible to park...
Now it's barely worth visiting.
