Nothing like that.

And its not either or. You can have both side by side or just one or the other. It depends on your Personality type and Needs.

We are born unconscious of both. And take time to learn them. And learning about the needs and personality types of others and realizing there is a huge spectrum that has nothing to do with yours takes even longer.

So making contact with Beauty is never confined to how someone else did it. Its good to be aware of all the routes though. And sample as many as you can.
The grandparent didn’t say anything about why C dependencies will often exist: in almost all cases, it is not because they must exist due to missing functionality in Rust, but because it is easier to use a C library than rewrite/translate into Rust. Once someone has done that process (or implemented something equivalent), using a pure Rust dependency is nicer for many reasons, but reimplementing a complicated library is always hard, no matter the language used.

> David Foster Wallace committed suicide because of his depression, but only after creating one of the great works of American literature. We label him as mentally ill for his depression, but we don't really have a label for the positive side of the fact that his brain was far from an average brain.

I'm a huge DFW fan, but I'd hesitate to use him as an example, for various reasons.

First off, from what I understand he stabilized on particular meds but then quit them because he felt he'd be more creative without. Instead of being more creative, he slid back into depression and the medication didn't work anymore (apparently that's a thing? I'm not too familiar with anti-depressants).

While I won't make any judgment as an outsider, it's not unreasonable to argue that he made a really bad gamble. It's quite possible that the it wasn't the medication that kept him from producing his next great work, but rather just the difficulty of what he was trying to do after Infinite Jest. Reading about it, it reminded me of various artists who 'jumped off the wagon' to return to previous glory, only to rediscover what being off the wagon really meant.

Furthermore, his struggles with depression and suicidal ideation, as well as drawing his self-worth from his work seemed to be a running thread in his life.

That said, his brain clearly wasn't average and I'm sure it played a positive role in his work. I'm just arguing against the common 'trope' that to do his work he had to be 'mentally ill'. I don't know either way, I just hold hope that these two don't need to be mutually exclusive.

The idea is that the Ops for a coparable architecture without FaaS is more expensive than just running FaaS and not having to pay or to talk to as many people.
Turing explains that the machine could not give an "appropriately meaningful" answer to whatever is said in it's presence, which the "dullest of men" could do.

So the basic quality he seeks in a machine that could pass the so called turing test is a machine that produces meaning. That meaning comes from any mind that is intact or coherent. So unless we take the leap from making category deciders and inference machines to actually building minds, we won't get anywhere near his definition of a machine that is truly intelligent.

There were differences in whether Unix systems came with a compiler. It caused a stir and an opportunity for Cygnus when Sun introduced Solaris without one.
And that's if a proprietary compiler was actually available on the system. I worked for a widespread computational project that really needed GNU Fortran as eventually a reliable basis for people to use that was generally available.

On the other hand, some bugs were common. There was at least one that originated in the original Unix f77 (which became f2c) that turned up in the Sun(?) compiler some time after it had been fixed in g77.
It was Prince Charles that got it.
No, not at all?

SSL had been around for 6 years already, credit card transactions were quite common, especially with known, reputable hosts (Network Solutions can be safely be assumed to have qualified at the time)
I would rather measure 2.5 grams on the scale I'm already using, it's far easier. Volumetric measurements should only be used for liquids.
A great demonstration of why in-distribution learning is not enough for AGI.

The largest GPT-3 model "GPT-3 175B" is trained with 499 Billion tokens (one token is maybe equal to 4 characters in text).

Human reading/talking/listening equivalent of 200 pages of text per day for 80 years would be just 13GB of raw data or 3B tokens. You could also make an estimate using 39 bits/s as the normal information rate humans can absorb and get the same order of magnitude estimate.

It's not completely wrong to say that we are figuring out how far interpolation from data can go as a learning method. Even the most advanced deep learning is in-distribution learning and system 1 thinking (Kahneman's term). Just run through data until the model can interpolate accurately between data points.

We must figure out how do learn models that allow out-of-distribution learning or these models fail the Turing test after a few questions.
Well, if it's controllable through a group policy. Otherwise you'll quickly regress to myriads of registry key incantations. Some things take hours or days to figure out how to configure.
Back then, I remember Internic let you register a domain and you had 30 days to pay up, because people would commonly put a cheque in the post ("mail a check.")
I meant just as much giving human testers a rating. Duelling AIs is sort of already a common training practise in many domains, right?
The only evidence that we have that humans have the sensation of consciousness is our own experience and the assumption that we're not special. Dogs might share with us this sensation of consciousness, or a less crisp sensation, or none at all. We have no way of knowing.

Personally I think it's appropriate to behave as though they have the sensation of consciousness even as we concede the gap in our knowledge. And even if we didn't go that far, quite frankly I think the distress caused to humans by the appearance of distress caused to dogs is sufficient reason to not torture dogs.

On the other hand, if I'm asked about factory farming of cows and chickens, the question I ask myself is "would I prefer if this chicken had a short, uneventful and (by human standards) meaningless life or if it never existed in the first place" and I'm unconvinced that either option can be confidently declared preferable.

Price is determined by supply and demand. There is more demand in cities so you need more supply to get the same price.

People want to live near other people/businesses, but that's what cities are already, which is why there is already more demand there. There is a limit to the amount of housing you can add before you end up on the other side of the curve and prices start going back down again.

There is also a matter of general policy. If hypothetically one city (and no others) added a lot of new housing so that the cost of housing there was lower there than in other cities then many people might move there, because they'd get to live in a city for less than it costs anywhere else, which would drive prices back up to near equilibrium. But if every city added housing then you wouldn't have that sort of migration because people could get into new housing without moving to another city, and then prices would decline everywhere.

And that's the beauty of Linux, it runs from mini devices to very very heavy supercomputers. I hope one day Steam will be more prevalent on Linux.

It's about time MS is squeezed out the same way they squeezed Netscape out.
So then what's the point of the taxes instead of just letting their housing prices come down?
The general wisdom was (as it still is) that you couldn't trust that anyone with a credit card form on their website would honor your trust. In this case the recipient wasn't just anyone with a credit card form on their website, but Network Solutions.
Well we had https ("check for the lock icon") back then, you could pay for plenty of things with credit cards online. Of course there was some fear of it among the general public. PayPal by no means invented online payments they just popularised it.
Um, no. That’s the whole thing is that the components don’t have to know how it is implemented. They do this.$bus.showError(‘Oops’). The bus implementation under the hood sends a message to the top level App component which in turn has the toaster notification implementation. I don’t need a linter to make this work.
"Insightful observation" doesn't quite do it justice ;) There's a whole discipline in discrete math dealing with the possibilities and limitations of equational theories and reasoning. And it could be said their limitations gave rise to the various constraint formalisms that were introduced in the 80s and 90s as Prolog extensions and sometimes (syntactic) generalizations.
sed, awk or even the fact that I could've used perl from command line

sed -i 's/old/new/g'

alone would have saved me lot of time instead of fiddling with a perl script everytime

Also, I would've liked to understand shell concepts like file redirections, command substitution, parameter expansion, difference between stdout/stderr, why sometimes I got an error for too many file arguments, or even knew that there existed sites like https://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ and stackoverflow/unix.stackexchange and https://www.shellcheck.net/ and https://explainshell.com/ and so on.

Generalizations like those need solid data to back them up. As it stands, it's just pushing a pseudo-psychological narrative.
I’m not sure what your point is here. Everyone knows by now that it’s possible to get COVID, experience mild symptoms and recover. However some people also die or recover and experience severe respiratory issues, and this is an interesting thing to study and report on. The article isn’t sensationalist or alarmist. It’s not calling anyone a liar - to be honest I’ve no idea what your “you going to call them all liars too?” comment is directed at.

Standard spoons for cooking are are much bigger than regular table spoons

that's even worse. if i need specialized equipment to get the right measurements then where is the advantage? with metric units, a scale and a jar with markers for volume is all that i ever need to do all measurements in the kitchen.

what's more, both the scale and the jar can handle imperial units as well.

The worst is when you encounter a recipe that has been converted from spoons to grams (or vice versa) using the wrong densities

if the measurement is done at a specific density, and i redo the same measurement at a different density then it's going to be wrong no matter what. but if that is a problem, then volume is the wrong measurement to begin with.

this isn't even about metric vs imperial, because the same problem applies if the spoon is converted to imperial weight.

spoons need to be converted to mililiters or fluid ounces to avoid that problem.

this is not an argument to keep using spoons as units.

> Sars Cov 2 is a coronavirus, one among several of a similar type. We're still learning much about it and doubtless there are going to be many complicated patient outcomes from some among the many millions who recover from it, but it's not some insane new super disease from the bowels of hell.

Like the article says, SARS-CoV-1 also resulted in chronic fatigue and other lifelong problems. It’s not remotely a stretch to believe this newer coronavirus would as well.
GPT-3 is immensely impressive, and presumably future iterations will be even more so.

I'm afraid though that all that GPT or any similar model passing the Turing Test would prove is that the Test is not fit for purpose as a demonstration of genuine intelligence - which, to be fair to Turing, is not what it was intended for.
It's great that mostly everything is in grams, baking should be precise. It's hard when you read a recipie that uses cups without knowing the origin, as US vs not cups are different sizes (200mL vs 250mL). It would be nice if all measurements were in grams, baking soda and water included.
I don't see how this would become real in practice. The YIMBYs don't want to drive out NIMBYs they just want denser housing. If you replace a single family home with a 4 story apartment building you get 4 times the density. Most of the people who want to move in aren't actually low income people. They are migrants who are about to double their salary but can't find a place without displacing low income people. There are lots of cities in California that want to stay "small" which also means that they throw away growth opportunities. The low income people that are being displaced are actually the californians.
> it is not because they must exist due to missing functionality in Rust

This is the precise reason, Rust is a decade or two away from being a useful replacement for C/C++ like other contending systems programming language like go and Swift which are at present more popular than Rust for writing systems program for networking, servers and controlling Apple hardware directly.

How to Create a High-Performing Non-Profit Team
Sure, that's a possibility. It is basically a truism that we can quantify the "consciousness" of a system to some extent, where we can say rocks have none, single cells (or even cell mechanisms) have the most basic kind, and more complex organisms have increasing amounts of this.

Humans obviously have more of this semi-quantifiable "consciousness" described above than plants or fish, and it is likely that we have the most out of all living organisms we know; but identifying this quantifiable property with our subjective experience of consciousness is nothing more than conjecture, though. The OP's conjecture that consciousness is just our ability to model others' behavior reflected back towards ourselves is similarly just a conjecture. We are still entirely missing any tools, even at a theoretical level, that would help bring our subjective experience of consciousness into the realm of the externally observable, so we can only speculate for now.

Perhaps in time AI research will change course again and try to return to such questions, instead of trying to become better at differential diagnosis, rote translation etc. (extremely useful goals, mind you, but scientifically uninteresting).

You're doing exactly what you're criticizing...

Anecdotes are meaningless, yours included, it doesn't matter if it's Idris Elba or the Queen of England, what matter are stats, and they don't lie, a non negligible percent of people get real sick and will have lasting effects.

Is it a coincidence that the only first world country that failed at containing the epidemic tells everyone that "it's not that bad", "not so many people will die", "there are no side effects", it's a disgrace.

well tell that to the cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure ,depression victims who don't get diagnosed in time or havent gotten the proper treatment. Tell that to the people who's lifework have been destroyed and I could go on with people being significantly affected. Its not that simple.
I actually think it would be the opposite now. Things like bug bounties or a huge PR problem by the affected problem posting it on Twitter are new things. It was more prevalent to send lawyers for accessing public but not meant to be public URLs back in the days than it's now.
It’s not about being “accurate” as in representing exactly what it can’t see but rather be “authentic”, since you don’t care about things like patterns or logos clothes aren’t that hard to figure out and so are body shapes.

Backpacks, and other attachments that are on the back or occluded ofc can’t be predicted or fitted with-in the model to represent their real life counterparts well not unless you train the model on every possible backpack.

That said training this model on people’s photographs and their 3D scans and then possibly on a dataset of clothes and accessories from big brands might actually allow you to much more accurately predict the unseen parts of the image by not only filling the gaps based on predictions but by actually specifically matching the items of clothing and accessories to draw additional information that way.

Most fashion brands already have detailed images of their products from multiple angles and even have 3D views of many items.

Combine that dataset with this model and you’ll probably be able to increase the accuracy of these models considerably.

> them out of their sickness state. Diabetes type II, heart problems, autoimmune problems, all these chronic diseases plaguing most of the human population

You mean all these diseases that are almost exclusively due to lifestyle, ie. lack of physical activity, poor diet choices, &c. ?

People knew 2000 years ago that gluttony and sloth weren't good things, it's not "modern medicine"'s role to cure our lack of will.
> We're able to mask symptoms but have absolutely no proof about underlying reasons

That's true for a ridiculously large amount of non mental illness diseases, too. In fact, I'd say the majority of non-microbial/cancerous diseases fall into this category. Off the top of my head, one example would be Alzheimer's, where recently what was thought to be the "underlying reason" for Alzheimer's (amyloid plaques) have been proven to be a later symptom, not the actual cause. [1]

Most autoimmune diseases also have similar problems. Turns out it's hard to figure out how the human body works.

There were just as many tools that existed during those "halcyon" days that didn't adhere to the UNIX philosophy. They just didn't tend to survive.

The one thing that hasn't changed is commercial (& ego) pressure to make the "one tool to rule them all", which has been pretty much immutable throughout the years, while on the other hand there is the reality of trying to string all of these things together.

Small, self contained tools with good APIs have persisted and will stand the test of time while the monoliths always die eventually (maybe with the exception of excel, which has really managed to cling on).

I don't think kubernetes or docker really have a bright future because they both have an ambition to be "the one tool to rule them all" and they simply can't.
One egg is about 50g plus or minus. If a recipe calls for one egg to make 12 cookies then some basic algebra can get you to a single cookie.

The real problem with testing a single cookie is creaming a tiny amount of sugar and butter. Even if your ratios are accurate the preparation will be somewhat different and texture will be affected. But small batch testing is the way to go to dial in ingredients for ideal cost and flavour.
Show HN: Pond, a lo-fi social newsletter service
For a while now, I've been working my way through the reasons why I don't like the current state of social networking with a series of little social coding projects. Pond is the latest one - it's sort of like a newsletter, sort of like a patently simple social network.
A lot of my trouble with social networking comes from the anxiety of the 'feed', and with Pond I'm trying to find a balance between the constant stream of information and, uh, absolute silence.

You send Pond your posts (Markdown-equipped), and once a week you get back two digests: one digest with every post sent that week, and one digest with the posts of the people you've chosen to follow. That's it!

I'd love to see what you think of it, HN. x
