California could ban Clear, which lets travelers pay to skip TSA lines

Jump

  • TSA Precheck involves a background check and interview. This allows the actual screening process to be lighter.

  • Clear doesn't skip screening... It skips to the front of the line to be screened.

    Everyone still gets screened.

  • It's no different than if you fed your children say, mercury, and then claimed you believed it was helpful because of Facebook gurus or similarly unaccredited sources.

    I totally agree that children should be vaccinated.

    But I just want to point out that there is a difference between actively doing something to harm your kid, and passively not doing something to protect your kid.

    Lack of protection is not equivalent to active harm.

    Parents should still be required to vaccinate their kids.

    • Bill to make marrying your first cousin illegal in Tennessee passes but not without a fight

    Jump

  • This isn't about "acceptance" in the social sense. I'm not saying you have to accept cousin fuckers in your community.

    I'm more worried about the legal framework. If it is legal to outlaw this, why is it illegal to outlaw gay marriage? Like, that doesn't seem ideologically consistent.

    Jump

  • I know everyone is like "haha cousin fuckers."

    But really, do we want the government to pass laws restricting who we can and cannot marry?

    I can't help but notice the overlap with LGBT rights. I'm pretty sure I'd prefer them to not pass this law.

    Like, from a legal and philosophical perspective, why is it OK for the government to restrict this? Why wouldn't that same argument apply to gay men getting married?

    • Developer Explains Why Explicit Sync Will Finally Solve the NVIDIA/Wayland Issues

    Jump

  • Yeah, but I want both GPU compute and Wayland for my desktop.

    • Is this intentional?
    Jump

  • I hate it.

    And it doesn't do this on the official web frontend, nor on the Photon web frontend (at least on mobile, haven't checked desktop).

    So I think the developers of Lemmy don't expect this to work.

  • Long term, I expect Vulkan to be the replacement to CUDA. ROCm isn't going anywhere...

    We just need fundamental Vulkan libraries to be developed that can replace the CUDA equivalents.

    • cuFFT -> vkFFT (this definitely exists)
    • cuBLAS -> vkBLAS (is anyone working on this?)
    • cuDNN -> vkDNN (this definitely doesn't exist)

    At that point, adding Vulkan support to XLA (Jax and TensorFlow) or ATen (PyTorch) wouldn't be that difficult.

    Jump

  • Unfortunately, those of us doing scientific compute don't have a real alternative.

    ROCm just isn't as widely supported as CUDA, and neither is Vulkan for GPGPU use cases.

    AMD dropped the ball on GPGPU, and Nvidia is eating their lunch. Linux desktop users be damned.

    • Biden may have trouble getting on Ohio’s general election ballot, state’s top election official warns

  • States decide the procedures for getting onto the ballot.

    The SCOTUS ruling is that states cannot apply the 14th amendment to keep someone off of the ballot, which is a separate issue from whether the party/candidate followed the proper process for getting onto the ballot in the first place.

    • In light of AI being trained on our data, why not comment in forums using images exclusively?

    Students commonly implement OCR as a homework assignment in undergrad machine learning courses (see the MNIST dataset).

  • Illegal how?

    States have processes for deciding who is on the ballot. All candidates who wish to be on the ballot must follow those processes, including the incumbent president.
