Tracking outbound links is core to the way Google ranks search results.

Think of search as "given this search query, which of the trillions of webpages on the internet will the user end up visiting?".

By looking at historic answers to that question from other users, they can present links to web pages which are very likely to answer the query for you too.

That is the reason smaller search engines (Bing), and privacy search engines (DDG), will never get as good as Google. Without data to answer the above question, they will never get as good results.

The premise itself is also quite funny, imo. I think very few people on this planet would think "I need a database so I build one myself". They might do this with the application layer, but most people consider databases black boxes that they interact with through SQL, or maybe not even that. Maybe they just use an abstraction framework in their favorite languages that lets them write objects which have .load() and .save() methods that generate SQL by themselves.

>He did not make the choice to murder if all the previous states, linked together to the outcome and thus it couldn’t have been different.

To some extent yes, our choices and scope of action is constrained by our essential nature, some of which is determined before we are even born. However this doesn't absolve us of all accountability. It simply sets up a framework within which we can discuss what accountability is and how we want to manage it.

This is a difficult issue and I don't have all the answers about accountability, I see my take on it as my starting point for the discussion about it not the end. I believe in rehabilitative rather than retributive justice because of this. Also see my reply to fjuerfilis.
Unpaywall
I'll forward this to some of my GPU-expert-coauthors in the morning to see if they have a take on your questions. I think there's a few interesting facets here, though, so here's my take.

> What's the most notable way the GPU in particular comes into play?

Forward-mode and reverse-mode AD have different expressibility constraints on the kinds of programs that each can efficiently target in the face of dynamism, and GPUs also have fairly constrained programming models compared to the CPU. For me, a big part of the paper was the exploration of the intersection of these two sets of programmability constraints.

Section 2.2.4 and the experimental sections explain some of this in detail, but I think one of the more surprising results was that the benefits of fusing dynamic control flow into the broadcasted derivative kernel outweighed potential detriments e.g. warp divergence. It turns out newer GPU architectures give you more leeway in that regard than any of us on the team expected.

> How does caching come into play?

Depends on which kind of "caching" you're referring to.

If you mean tape-level partial derivative caching/memory usage:

Broadcasting a forward-mode derivative operator, as presented in this paper, can save on memory when it enables better fusion than reverse-mode on complicated kernels (resulting in fewer temporaries).

However, there is also a question of when this technique should actually be employed: during the forward pass, or during the reverse pass? If employed in the forward pass, then the primal and partial derivative calculations can be fused, reducing compute cost. However, doing so means that the memory required to store the partial derivatives is held captive until those derivatives can be backpropagated in the reverse pass. Conversely, employing the technique in the reverse pass allows you to free the partial derivative storage quickly, but features some redundant computation. Section 2.2.3 of the paper discusses this a bit.

If you mean instruction-level caching, i.e. efficient pipelining of memory into registers:

On the CPU, it's quite easy to thrash cache for high-arity dual number calculations (i.e. calculations where dual number instances carry around a long stack-allocated array of partial derivatives). Our experiment in Section 3.4.1 tries to characterize the analogous GPU behavior by measuring how occupancy scales with target calculation arity.

Also, there was definitely a bit of implementation work to ensure that loads from our GPU-backed "dual number" arrays coalesced properly, that indexing calculations were compiled away when possible, etc. The cool part is that the dual numbers themselves were just the implementation provided by the ForwardDiff package (https://github.com/JuliaDiff/ForwardDiff.jl), which contains no GPU-specific specialization, and they're automagically JIT-compiled for the GPU by CUDAnative (https://github.com/JuliaGPU/CUDAnative.jl).

My leisure time is worth on the order of £1/minute pre tax (given that's what I charge for overtime or consultancy jobs)

Call it 50p a minute after tax.

A typical hour long TV program will have 18 minutes of adverts, or £9. The cost of watching the 40 minute program about £20.

The question then is
is this TV program worth £20 to me

If no, I won't watch it.

is this TV program worth more than £20 but less than £30 to me

If yes, I'll watch, but not with adverts. If it's worth £25, I'll pay upto £5 for the episode.

is this TV program worth more than £30

If yes, I'll watch with adverts, but only if it costs more than £9 to buy the episode.

Typically the cost of buying a TV episode is very small - on the order of £2, so it rarely makes sense to watch with adverts. Back in the 90s I paid the equivalent of £10 an episode for tapes of DS9 season 6 and 7

Thing is, Indian parents think hitting is the only way to discipline kids.

But you can raise them without hitting. American kids are more independent than Indian kids for a good reason. I've seen in movies that "curfew for a month" (or whatever they call it)

That never happens in India. Also the new gen parents are utter failures, at lesst majority.

Both parents work, both travel a lot to and from office, so much so that they are weekend parents and their kids are raised by Youtube.

Or course there are good number of exceptions too. But majority kids these days are raised by youtube

> Public services should be funded via taxation, not by private advertising partnerships.

25% of TFL funding comes from government grants anyway, increasing that to 27% from local property taxation in London seems the most sensible thing, but in the age where people only care about the bottom line and don't factor in externalities I can't see that as an option. The Met are now selling themselves because people won't pay taxes to fund them (London's police budget is 20% lower today than it was in 2012/2013)

There's a list someone is maintaining here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gender_equality_lawsui...

It only has one in the last three years. Moreover, a quick news search for 'gender pay discrimination lawsuit' shows that most news articles discussing such things are actually more about #metoo / sexual harrassment stuff and always only allegations, it's much harder to find reports of actual findings of systematic discrimination. And in the rare cases it has happened, it's always arguable because the jobs are usually not directly comparable e.g. high level executives where personal performance can vary wildly and people are comparing across quite different jobs but claiming they're equal.

Your reply doesn't give me any new information to work with, and my own experiences and checks says this doesn't happen. In cases where men are getting paid more than women, it's usually because they're being more effective, not because their boss explicitly decided women should get paid less.

The Gazette archive is still there at http://gazette.call-cc.org/archive.html but the Gazette hasn't seen new issues in a long time.

It turned out that keeping a regular writing schedule with a small group of people is quite hard. Gathering the news and coming up with interesting new content is quite a lot of work. Eventually the releases started to drift further apart because people did not find the time to write the articles anymore. Eventually nobody volunteered to put in the time anymore.

It's unfortunate, but people have busy lives and we're happy we find the time to develop the CHICKEN code itself. So, I don't see a way to restore it unless droves of new volunteers step up.

Yes, but I fundamentally disagree with them.

They're a bandage for the labor market having a surpless of supply and insufficient mobility.

Both of those the government could fix. Surpless of supply can be solved by carefully regulating immigration and encouraging emmigration. Insufficient mobility is harder to fix, but requiring employers to not employ the same person for more than 200 days per year could force people to try out for other jobs. If everyone had two jobs, they could scale up and down the number of hours at each job to get the best pay/conditions. That's far better than collective bargaining.

Long term employment contracts, and benefits based on tenure should be banned too. That's just employers trying to reduce mobility.

I'd quite like to see daily labor auctions. Where the employer "bids" for how much they're willing to pay today, and employees select where they'll go to work (or stay home) based on today's bids. Christmas day would suddenly get very expensive.

Some types of employment require specific knowledge or training. In those cases, the employer shall have to provide a list of people who have said training, and the list should have to be significantly larger than the number of people working at that place on any given day to ensure the "training" requirement doesn't prevent mobility.

The parent may or may not be right about work being necessary to for a meaningful life. I don't have a strong opinion either way [1].

What matters more to me is that we are just so far away from all the important work being "done". As long as there are sick people, people in physical or emotional pain, people needing better housing or better education or any form of improvement to their lives, and as long as the global population has yet to figure out how to exist without harming the environment, there will be work to be done, much of it of great importance and urgency.

This idea that we are within reach of all the important work being "done" so we can all just live a life of leisure seems fanciful to me; I haven't heard anyone propose a realistic pathway to bring about that version of reality - at least not one that doesn't just rely on handwavy concepts from science fiction.

I'd be happy for you to point me to any solid material on this if I'm missing something.

[1] I personally think all kinds of things can give people meaning, and those things may be considered "work" by some people and not by others (E.g., caring for loved ones, learning to create art, or indeed, writing open-source software), so it quickly becomes a futile debate over definitions.

What kind of world?

When you hypothesize a world where AI uses cameras everywhere to know everything they can about everybody,
you haven't characterized that world at all.

First, IS IT REALLY EVERYBODY? (But let's assume for now, it's really everybody).

The question that will characterize the kind of world, is what is done with that information.

You can choose to use it to oppress and repress people; or you could use it to help them. If you detect a person overly drunk, you can send somebody fetch her, and either send her to the police station or to her home. Here you can ask what kind of world you would live more comfortably in? But it has nothing to do with cameras AI, and databases.

If the AI detects that some person is becoming stressed and loses her health, you can use that information to fire her, (bad health leads to bad productivity right?), to forbid her to get insurance, etc, or you can use that information to give her some holidays and schedule a consultation with health services. Here you can ask what kind of world you would live more comfortably in? But it has nothing to do with cameras AI, and databases.

And if the AI detects that some crime is being committed or about to be, you can send the police after or before the damage is done to the victim, and you can put the criminal in jail or send back to his country of origin, or leave him on the streets to try again another crime. Here you can ask what kind of world you would live more comfortably in? But it has nothing to do with cameras AI, and databases.
I don't like that concept of essentially inlining styles in the class attribute. It is just a misuse of html classes.

Class names should be used sparingly and describe the semantics of an element rather than its visual appearance. It should be something like class="button submit disabled" instead of class="f6 link dim br1 ph3 pv2 mb2 dib white bg-black".

If anything these styles should be exposed as sass mix-ins that you can use in your own styles. So you have a named set of style mix-ins that do not pollute class names.
