During Spotify's Q1 2024 earnings call, Spotify CEO and co-founder Daniel Ek called 2024 Spotify's "year of monetization" and said the company would focus on "strong revenue growth and margin expansion" via "ambitious plans." Ek didn't announce price changes at the time but noted that Spotify often reviews its “value-to-price” ratio in relation to subscription prices, as Variety reported at the time. |

it does feel like a good day to do some cable weasel, i have to say because this whole article is basically just an instruction to have a planned emergency? that's incredibly shoddy wizarding, steve BROCKTON, Mass. — Residents and businesses in part of Brockton are being warned of plans for a 9-hour "emergency power outage" planned by National Grid. The Brockton Fire Department warned that the outage will begin Tuesday at 10 p.m. and last through 7 a.m. on Wednesday. Officials said the outage, affecting the downtown area, will allow for underground cable repairs. "Residents and businesses should prepare for an extended overnight power outage," the department wrote. Fire officials said the outage will affect portions of Main Street, Crescent Street, VFW Parkway, Warren Avenue, L Street, Elm Street, School Street, Legion Parkway, Montello Street, Commercial Street, Center Street and High Street (Fredrick Douglas). For those who live or work in the affected area, the fire department offered these recommendations: Check your flashlights and batteries. Do not use candles for lighting Keep refrigerators and Freezers closed Relocate if dependent on electric power for medical devices Make sure Cell phones are charged. Internet-based phones may not work Don’t use elevators after 9:30 PM If a traffic light is out, treat the intersection as a four-way stop. Unplug sensitive electronics to avoid power surges when power is restored. Set temperatures to lowest temp before outage. Keep refrigerator and freezer doors closed. An unopened refrigerator will keep food cold for about four hours. A full freezer will keep the temperature for about 48 hours. In the event your phone does not work and you need emergency help, pull a fire alarm box. The fire department directed all questions to National Grid, at 800-322-3223. |

As detailed in Cupiał's X (formerly Twitter) thread, this was several hours of confused trial and error by him and Wołczyk. "I am starting to feel like a madman. I can't even watch a TV show constantly thinking about the bug," Cupiał wrote. In desperation, he asks model author Tuyls if he knows what could be wrong. He wakes up in Kraków to an answer: "Oh yes, it's probably a full moon today." In NetHack, the game in which the DevTeam has thought of everything, if the game detects from your system clock that it should be a full moon, it will generate a message: "You are lucky! Full moon tonight." A full moon imparts a few player benefits: a single point added to Luck, and werecreatures mostly kept to their animal forms. It's an easier game, all things considered, so why would the learning agent's score be lower? It simply doesn't have data about full moon variables in its training data, so a branching series of decisions likely leads to lesser outcomes, or just confusion. It was indeed a full moon in Kraków when the 3,000-ish scores started showing up. What a terrible night to have a learning model. Of course, "score" is not a real metric for success in NetHack, as Cupiał himself noted. Ask a model to get the best score, and it will farm the heck out of early-stage monsters because it never gets bored. "Finding items required for [ascension] or even [just] doing a quest is too much for pure RL agent," Cupiał wrote. Another neural network, AutoAscend, does a better job of progressing through the game, but "even it can only solve sokoban and reach mines end," Cupiał notes. |

Human oocytes lie dormant for decades waiting to be fertilized. Human stem cells are born into the bone marrow and then go quiescent, waiting for the body to call out to them to grow and differentiate. Fibroblasts in nervous tissue, lymphocytes of the immune system, and hepatocytes in the liver all enter dormant, inactive, nondividing phases and reactivate later. |

Fartha's Vineyard will run out of pot entirely, affecting more than 230 registered medical users and thousands more recreational ones. Advertisement The problem boils down to location. Although Massachusetts voters opted to legalize marijuana more than seven years ago, the state's Cannabis Control Commission has taken the position that transporting pot across the ocean — whether by boat or plane — risks running afoul of federal laws. That’s despite a counterargument that there are routes to Martha’s Vineyard that remain entirely within state territorial waters. The conundrum led Rose to file a lawsuit last month against the commission, which now says that finding a solution to the island’s pot problem has become a top priority. Three of the five commissioners visited Martha’s Vineyard on Thursday to hear directly from affected residents. The tension between conflicting state and federal regulations has played out across the country as states have legalized pot. California law, for example, expressly allows cannabis to be transported to stores on Catalina Island, while Hawaii last year dealt with its own difficulties transporting medical marijuana between islands by amending a law to allow it. Federal authorities have also been shifting their position. The Justice Department last month moved to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug, though still not a legal one for recreational use. For several years, sellers on Martha's Vineyard and the nearby island of Nantucket thought they had a solution. They grew and tested their own pot, eliminating the need to import any from across the water. |

BOSTON — A Massachusetts woman says she spent hundreds of dollars on tickets to Saturday's sold-out Savannah Bananas game at Fenway Park that wound up being counterfeits. A Weymouth resident named Cheryl said that when she was searching for tickets, she encountered a woman on Facebook who was initially offering tickets at $50 each. When Cheryl indicated she wanted up to eight seats, the Facebook user wrote: "My uncle works in the Bananas office, so it was super easy to get the tickets." |

On several occasions, men approached my wife when I was out of town, challenging her to defend my writing and sometimes quoting a far-right pastor named Douglas Wilson. Wilson is a notorious Christian nationalist and slavery apologist who once wrote that abolitionists were “driven by a zealous hatred of the word of God” and that “slavery produced in the South a genuine affection between the races that we believe we can say has never existed in any nation before the war or since.” |

“We’re still doing initial evaluations, so we aren’t yet sure what kind of care these dogs will need before they’re ready to find new homes,” said Mike Keiley, MSPCA-Angell vice president of animal protection. “But we know the property they came from allegedly had unsanitary and overcrowded conditions.” Keiley said some of the dogs are thin and some have acute medical and dental issues that need to be addressed. Merrimac police said the dogs were voluntarily surrendered from a Locust Grove Road property after reports of "animal hoarding and overcrowding." oh! we've saved babi- puppies! but shit. they need dental care. they have problems so do i. as i work up the marble to cast my own dentistry spell. |

The new analysis, based on ancient DNA from the remains of 64 people who archaeologists believe had been ritually sacrificed and then deposited in an underground chamber, found the victims were all young boys, many of whom were closely related. “There were two big moments of surprise here,” said lead study author Rodrigo Barquera, a researcher in the department of archaeogenetics at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany. “We were thinking, influenced by traditional archaeology that we would find, a non-sex-biased burial or mostly girls,” he said. “And the second one (was) when we found out that some of them were related and there were two sets of twins.” |

Nvidia, which completed a 10-for-1 stock split last week, has been reaping the rewards of its first-mover advantages in high-compute data centers. Without fail, investors have overestimated the adoption and/or utility of every next-big-thing trend, technology, and innovation since the mid-1990s. timing is everythink. |

From left: Rick DeLorie; Colette Aufranc; Tom Ulfelder; Ann-Mara Lanza; Beth Sullivan Woods; and Lise Olney. Photo credit: Stephanie Hawkinson During a light-hearted ceremony, DeLorie was roasted, applauded, and thanked as he showed up in a professional capacity for Wellesley one last time, looking natty in his dress blues. All DeLorie could do was chuckle warmly when he was tweaked by speakers eager to sing his praises (with a dash of pester). I’ll spell it out for you Superintendent David Lussier noted DeLorie’s faithful participation in the yearly town spelling bee, as well as his lackluster performance. “We all had to tell him there was only one ‘r’ in fire,” Lussier said before bragging that “we couldn’t be prouder of our graduate of Wellesley public schools.” |

A group of eight Tasmanian devils from northern Tasmania are bound for new homes in the United States as "ambassadors" for their species. They'll board a flight on Tuesday afternoon with Michael Frushour and other American zookeepers, who made the overseas trip just to collect them. "We could not be happier and we are honoured to be able to take these animals back to the United States," Mr Frushour, a curator of birds and mammals at Toledo Zoo in Ohio, said. excuse me, are you people qualified to handle those devils? are you sure? did you just bullshit through the test with an AI lapel nazar panopticon? or do you actually know animals? |

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday warned that a federal indictment of an allegedly fraudulent telehealth company may lead to a massive, nationwide disruption in access to ADHD medications—namely Adderall, but also other stimulants—and could possibly increase the risk of injuries and overdoses. "A disruption involving this large telehealth company could impact as many as 30,000 to 50,000 patients ages 18 years and older across all 50 US states," the CDC wrote in its health alert. The CDC warning came on the heels of an announcement from the Justice Department Thursday that federal agents had arrested two people in connection with an alleged scheme to illegally distribute Adderall and other stimulants through a subscription-based online telehealth company called Done Global. The company's CEO and founder, Ruthia He, was arrested in Los Angeles, and its clinical president, David Brody, was arrested in San Rafael, California. "As alleged, these defendants exploited the COVID-19 pandemic to develop and carry out a $100 million scheme to defraud taxpayers and provide easy access to Adderall and other stimulants for no legitimate medical purpose,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. "Those seeking to profit from addiction by illegally distributing controlled substances over the Internet should know that they cannot hide their crimes and that the Justice Department will hold them accountable." law. bitches |
