catch22@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s new weather prediction system combines AI with traditional physics.English19·10 months agoUmmm was weather foresting not always done using probalistic interference models, i.e AI?
Weather forecasts have recently felt like they’ve been less accurate, i.e. you maybe get a good level of confidence for a day, but two days and it might be completely different. This makes sense given the climate is changing and previous models wont fit as well…
Are LLMs going to consume search data for raincoats and air-conditioning to improve the weather forecast. Clearly time to invest in AI now, the revolution is here!

catch22@startrek.websiteto News@lemmy.world•Support for legal abortion has risen since Supreme Court eliminated protections, AP-NORC poll finds4·11 months agoIt’s a handy thing for the right to stir up people over it as they don’t give a shit about the baby or the mother. They’re happy to implement it as it will get them votes with the only consequence of putting some women in medical danger. It’s a no lose prospect for them.
E: sorry should have said the political leaders of the right to differentiate from the cattle, i.e. right wing voters.

catch22@startrek.websiteto Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•Planet is headed for at least 2.5C of heating with disastrous results for humanity, poll of hundreds of scientists finds | Planet is headed for at least 2.5C of heating with disastrous results2·1 year agoReally depends how you measure the economy. Gross national happiness seems like better way to judge the health of an economy than GDP, which has little bearing on the state of most people’s lives.
Humans make all this shit up, line goes up is a completely valid retort to how the economy is being mismanaged, because it is what is seemingly most important regardless of the quality of people’s lives.
Saying if the line didn’t go up, people’s live would be worse is true, but only because of who we are letting rule the playground, i.e. if they don’t have all the toys then nobody is getting anything.
catch22@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Increase your Linux Server Internet Speed with TCP BBR Congestion-ControlEnglish24·1 year agoCool! This seems like an good write up on it
https://atoonk.medium.com/tcp-bbr-exploring-tcp-congestion-control-84c9c11dc3a9
Bottleneck Bandwidth and Round-trip propagation time (BBR) is a TCP congestion control algorithm developed at Google in 2016. Up until recently, the Internet has primarily used loss-based congestion control, relying only on indications of lost packets as the signal to slow down the sending rate. This worked decently well, but the networks have changed. We have much more bandwidth than ever before; The Internet is generally more reliable now, and we see new things such as bufferbloat that impact latency. BBR tackles this with a ground-up rewrite of congestion control, and it uses latency, instead of lost packets as a primary factor to determine the sending rate.

Great minds.

E: oh, was thinking it was a pm raised it, but seems it was possibly one of their developers, brutal…

catch22@startrek.websiteto News@lemmy.world•'Why do I need an all-Black cast?' Disney criticizes Peltz remarks165·1 year agoWhere the sex or amount of melanin someone has isn’t a defining characteristic of the story, it just shouldn’t matter if you swap genders or whatever assuming similar levels of acting ability. Disney I generally see as a corporate whore, but good on them for sticking to this. Fuck you peltz.
Interesting, like a viral suppressant, letting earth heal.
