This is fun. I managed a data entry project at a previous employer that was kind of like this.

We had non technical subject matter experts that I sneakily got to write several thousand unit tests. We had some quantitative and qualitative data we wanted annotated on a substantial dataset of scanned documents. I built a tool that let them type natural language descriptors for everything. I then converted that to javascript unit tests by way of some regex and coffeescript.

It was possible to bootstrap classifiers that way! Seems like kind of old tech in an era of unsupervised megaML, but I've not been using that part of my resume for a year or so.
Sorry, I forgot to clarify that when I talk about the AGI creating a child, I mean the AGI creating a child in such a way as to know the child's truthfulness and source-code. Otherwise, of course, a monkey could "create" an AGI by blindly typing source-code on a typewrite and getting lucky.

>Do you believe you can make a gai that is smarter than you?

There are different ways of measuring intelligence. For the measure addressed in the paper, no, I can't single-handedly create an AGI smarter than myself (at least not in such a way as to know its truthfulness and its source-code).
If the team/project is huge typing has benefits. If not, python type hints are generally good enough. In the end using MS tooling means their needs come first and so that is to be avoided.

The idea is great but the customization that comes with Wordpress is too valuable for many course creators.

A hosted LMS like this with a Wordpress integration to allow best of both worlds is what the industry needs.
That would make sense if your list of expletives was too large to fit in memory, which would be... impressive, to say the least.
In the case of devs it's not just staying in the same place though. You get more complete frameworks, more analytics, better ad engines, and faster development pace.

It might not be what we wanted, but it is a benefit
Hmm, those 2 seconds in between channel changes might be enough to insert a micro ad that could be preloaded in the background. That would appear instantaneously while your channel loads, it would feel a lot more responsive.
I think they misjudged the timescale and the complexity added by slope. Good outcome though so clearly wasn't too badly misjudged.

Youtube channel Wild Wonderful Offgrid [1] built a much bigger absolutely gorgous house...but on flat terrain and over two years.

The other thing I've noticed is that many successful projects have pretty permanent "temporary" accomodation on site that take the pressure off needing to complete it asap.

But could the argument be made that we are loading a shit load more content so even though it feels slower you're getting a richer UX to work with?
$65k "profit" not including labor wouldn't seem so bad if they could have worked on it full time and gotten it done in 4-6 months, right? You could certainly live on $60k/yr (split proceeds from selling two of these), once you put in the initial capital to get off the ground. I guess on the pro side, you would assume they'd get better at it as they went along; on the con side, maybe they got lucky with the selling price for this one and it's not a repeatable business process.
That gets the causality backwards. Your personality is set pretty early in life and determines characteristics like how self-aware you are, how vain you are, whether you care about how you come across to others, and more. Those qualities determine how much effort you put into being attractive.

Even though opening the lid makes the GPU work harder, it typically is a win in terms of cooling the laptop down. Also, try plugging in the power adapter on the right side USB ports, that allegedly makes a difference in heat
Just my 2 cents, there are not "wrong" answers IMO, just tradeoffs and opinions.

Go with a gcc/g++ based toolchain, it has a few warts as most do, but it is flexible, well known, documented online and most every library and system works with it. I use gcc/g++ on everything from micro-controllers to servers using C/C++ and it works and has good support. I personally still like makefiles over CMake, but that is personal and nothing is wrong with CMake and many new solutions pick CMake for their build process. Pick a decent IDE that makes your life easier, I use CLion for all server/desktop and on microcontrollers I use either CLion with makefiles or in some cases Atollic Studio since it is well integrated with STM toolchains.

Last point, in reference to C++ if you are learning/planning to use it, stick with modern C++ wherever possible, much of what people complain about C/C++ is really just their own lack of knowledge or bias to what the language was 30+ years ago.
This looks really interesting - especially the temporal aspects. Does anyone have any insight into using it with RDF/SPARQL data/queries?
As for the nano glass, I ordered an anti reflective screen protector from a local Dutch supplier. It works fantastic on my 16". I do programming though, no color-sensitive photo or video work.
> Don't forget it includes a 5K display...

It included a 5K display at a much lower price point that hasn't been adequately justified by currency changes before too, so I'm not sure that means anything.

I don't really get the tiny home fixation some people have. If it's a move towards minimalism, fine, but I don't think it's a practical cost cutting measure if we're talking about rural properties.

The reason I say this most of the costs in rural homes have little to do with house size. My septic, well, electricity, tractor + attachments, mower, etc. and the piles of tools I need are all fixed costs that have little to nothing to do with my house size. Likewise my municipal taxes are based on assessment value which in large part is lot size and location.

And many municipalities and townships have rather tight restrictions on what can be built and where, and many of the ad-hoc tiny homes may not meet them.

Living in the country looks simpler to people in the city than it is. It is often very very expensive no matter how low the actual land value cost is.

The first fire (pre-big-explosion) clearly is taking place in a warehouse next to the grain silos. The big explosion appears to take place in the same warehouse as well.

A single frame of the fireball shows a large spherical fireball whose edge maybe reaches the edge of the grain silos. The next frame looks to my untrained eyes more like the edge of the fireball is having some reflection from the wall of the grain silos, followed by a dark cloud obscuring details, and then the vapor cloud really obscuring everything, and finally the photographer falling over.

It seems pretty clear to me that grain played no role in the big explosion.
This is known as Jevons paradox in economics and the classic example in modern times is rates of total electricity usage going up while devices have become ever more energy efficient.

I'm in the same boat. I'm kind of done with Mac though because Catalina broke a bunch of VST's I used and Live 9. I'm not paying for an upgrade on Ableton Live because an OS upgrade. It's not even that old. Live 1 still installs on Windows just fine. I guess Catalina is getting us used to all the stuff breaking and never working on ARM. People really expect someone like Propellerheads Reason to work on ARM? It doesn't even have 4k support. Mark my words, there is going to be big name music software that will never work on Arm. They'll just turn in to Windows only support. At least then they don't have to rewrite their software every two years for Mac. These codebases go back decades.

I had to downgrade to Mojave but how long is that actually going to work. Stuff moves too fast on Apple. I can install old deprecated software and Windows and it boots up just fine. Cakewalk Project 5 for example and load up projects that are 15 years old. All of the old Cakewalk VST's still work fine on Windows but stopped working on Mac at Yosemite. It's just pitiful. If I wasn't a mobile developer I would have dropped Mac in a heartbeat.
I don't assume, I just explain what I do and what I see most commonly done. I don't allow racism and that's not censorship, it's my personal, private choice and my users agree with it (if they don't they are free to take their data off my server and go elsewhere with no interference on my part)

Recently I worked on a project involving rotation matrices. Engineers were worried about matrix multiplications. I told them it's just a dot product with each of the 3 unit vectors... Sighs of relief all round.
I'm the lead developer of SIMDe.

I wouldn't say that portability is the main focus. The first step is to get portable implementations up and running, but a huge number of functions have optimized implementations for NEON, AltiVec/VSX, and WASM SIMD 128, and we're working on adding more. We go to a lot of trouble to get good performance on multiple architectures, basically writing each implementation several times and using ifdefs to switch depending on what the fastest version available to a given architecture will be.

Even just for the portable implementations, we use a lot of hints to help the compiler auto-vectorize. Almost every portable implementation has a loop which uses a pragma to try to get the compiler do the right thing (OpenMP SIMD, clang loop-specific pragmas, GCC ivdep, etc.). On top of that we take advantage of lots of compiler-sepecific features to speed things up where possible, including GCC-style vector extensions, __builtin_shuffle/__builtin_shufflevector, and __builtin_convertvector.

SIMDe never going to be as fast as someone who knows what they're doing writing an optimized implementation for a given target. However, it should be as fast (or faster) than someone who is just trying to do a direct port where they just try to match the existing code as closely as possible.
Racism isn't bad because it's done by bad people. It's bad because it hurts people. Racism done by "good people" is still racism, and it's still bad for all the same reasons.

Nobody cares about racist intentions. Despite what fox news tells you, antiracists are not interested in prosecuting thoughtcrime. Have racist thoughts all you want, nobody gives a fuck. The problem that antiracism and all other egalitarian movements are interested in solving is racist/sexist/homophobic/whatever EFFECTS. Intent doesn't matter. Actual material harm matters.
Second on Handmade Hero. It's great.
Please excuse my "You're asking the wrong question." answer. That said I do want you to succeed. Of course, a grain of salt is reccommended.

I wouldn't point towards relying solely on methodologies. People are weird and complex, crazy even, especially the talented ones. Maybe eccentric is a more politic term. Be that as it may, I don't think that trying to use recipes for this landscape is going to help, at least in the day to day problem solving way. Instead I think you'll want a particular person.

Excellent soft skills like you need require high trait contentiousness and high trait extroversion, someone that loves to talk with people all day and that has all their ducks in a row. Test for those two things.

They're going to be expensive. But, with a established track record they're going to be worth it.
I’ve come across this as well, and having worked in VoIP the common rationale is fraud prevention, which is a real problem that does exist-but I think it’s a rationale that has been quite misapplied or perhaps better to say, inappropriately applied as a blocker for using VoIP numbers for 2FA.
Try a Conflict Of Visions. It's not at all smug or dismissive. In fact it's one of the most balanced books I've ever read. I didn't know who the author was before I read it, and by the time I finished, I felt I still knew nothing about the author. But I also felt I suddenly understood politics and the world, for the first time in my life. It was a mind-expanding experience. I immediately bought several copies so I could give them away to friends and family.

Later I found his videos and was surprised to learn he's a black conservative. That wasn't apparent from the book.
Is that because the Python interpreter has to explicitly handle coroutines differently from normal functions?

One difference for Elixir/Erlang (which GP mentioned) is that the BEAM VM can interrupt any function by default. (There's a few exceptions when you deal with native code and other things)

Yeah, I remember when that first started happening, and I agree it was really frustrating. The funny thing is that I no longer channel surf, so I no longer hit this. I realized the other day that I haven't watched cable TV in a long time. My TiVo is empty and has been for a long time, but I watch TV every night using streaming devices instead.

I don't know if it's the age (like Phil mentioned he wants to spend time with Family, Friends, Personal projects) or it's the recent criticism that areas like App Store and others got.

Whatever I always enjoyed Phil Schiller on stage. While Jony Ive's voiceover looked like a real marketing material, Phil's presentations were always energetic and real. Especially his way of introducing new hardwares and processors. I'll miss his presentations. Hope he gets good time to do what he wants!
Not to anywhere near the level of this but i've been playing a map on city skylines where i've been trying to make it as dystopian as possible, though at first I was just trying to model my city, the sad thing is, on a superficial level, it still resembles it.

Industrial areas lined with low income housing. A whole neighbourhood with schools next to oil refineries, a prison island that receives its drinking water from the sewage run off of the rest of the city, I created roads and bridges everywhere, there's several 'nice' areas along the non polluted areas of water with large mansions, there's a big bustling urban center full of office buildings and highrises not far away from squat, squalid apartments underneath highway overpasses, schools next to landfills, a lack of hospitals and fire departments, many police departments, i've intentionally clearcut as much of the forest surrounding the city as possible, the next step was to create a small gated community out away from the city, for those with money who can't handle the horrid amounts of traffic and infrastructure...

I may have also accidently poisoned the whole city briefly when trying to build the prison island and killed 30% of the people there, but things have been looking up, population growth is finally starting to rise again, though the health of the population is questionable.
Thus "FWIW" :)

Playing by different rules does not allow one to defy the laws of mathematics.

In my original post, forgive me, I forgot to clarify that when I talk about an AGI creating a child, I mean doing so in such a way as to know the source-code and the truthfulness of the child. Obviously without that constraint, a monkey could randomly type an AGI's source-code just by dumb luck. But the lucky monkey would not understand the ramifications of what it had just typed.

If I create an AGI in such a way that I know its truth and its source-code, then I know a code for a certain computable ordinal---namely the supremum of the computable ordinals which the AGI knows codes for---which is larger than any ordinals for which the AGI knows codes. So in at least that one very narrow sense of intelligence, I am more intelligent than said AGI. No amount of "playing by different rules" will change that.
I think you missed "Know" or "Have experience" as one of the steps... Building can be pretty unintuitive if you haven't done it before.
Still, if it is identical, then it could not necessarily be less than.

I may not know what value is in the box (my own truthfulness and source-code), but if it is replicated, then the value ought to be identical, and therefore not less than.
The did a seller finance. I suspect the 115k includes "interest" so to speak and that an actual cash buyer would have been lower, maybe closer to their all in cost than the final sales "price".
If it's silly to be pedantic about it, isn't it also silly to leave a comment discussing a change to it?
There's every reason to believe EASA are being strong armed by U.S. State Department. This is an administration that thoroughly believes in bribery, extortion, and retribution. I have no more confidence in EASA than FAA.

Curious the FAA comes out with their position before any final crash reports by either country. NTSB usually also reports on accidents involving U.S. made aircraft, and that too isn't released yet.
It’s not free speech as a principle if a small group of administrators decide what a much larger community is allowed to see.

It’s even more insidious than the power that Reddit moderators have because at least you can see that comments were deleted.

A platform designed specifically around federating giant censorship networks has nothing to do with free speech. The only free speech their is that someone can setup their own instance, but that’s no different than phpbb, which doesn’t make such a grandiose claim about free speech.

I think it's important to remember that a "system" in a video game is a work of art just like the game itself. The systems, in a lot of ways, reflect the ideas and thoughts of the authors of that game. Magnasati's highlights and flaws help illustrate that thinking, or what tax rates are best for doing well in the game.

An example that comes to mind is Factorio, where solar panels are more tricky to operate than generators, but minimize conflict with the ingame fauna. Earlier versions of Rimworld were programmed to have men be either gay or straight, but women to be bisexual. I think both of those gameplay mechanics illustrate (or at least point to) the author(s) idea about the world.

While I can see the technical reason why channel changes take a while with digital TV, I've always wondered why switching the digital input of your TV, or just changing the resolution of the connected devices takes so long. On most TVs it's over two seconds. The signal is in most cases just a stream of standalone, uncompressed frames. Switching from HDMI1 to HDMI2 should take a few milliseconds.
I've seen the rage they describe first hand. It renders you unable to think clearly. Also, making a mistake is a lot easier to manage when your own finances aren't on the line.
Hmm, I don't recognise that description. His books "A Conflict of Visions" and "Intellectuals and society" are all about human decision making, judgement and uncertainty.
Qanon is silly. It's basically "Plan Trusting", i.e. the idea is that Trump et. al. have a grandiose plan that will not be revealed that will clean all the bad people out and put good people in; it's wishful thinking to an extreme, and it's backed up with Nostradamus-style non-falsifiable predictions that get rationalized after the fact.

It's harmless. It's a distraction. It's not a threat to anyone - if anything it takes people who could potentially be activists and redirects them into inaction.

Antifa is a much bigger, more real, more visible threat to national security. Where's the Vice article calling them out?
This is the only way you can end up with >1 USB-C port, afaik. It's not currently possible to split USB-C like USB-A, so the only way you can get a second USB-C port is if you have a Mac and use a Thunderbolt dock.

Reading this, I am reminded of an observation made by the Unabomber in his infamous manifesto. He pointed out that the industrialized, corporate life was making us miserable and depressed. What people really want and need to be happy is to struggle with real problems they care about, and then overcome them through hard work. That is the only way to satisfaction and happiness. He was a smart guy, it's too bad he went apeshit and killed a bunch of people.
He's also still head of the App Store which is the center of the majority of the antitrust firestorm, so it honestly looks more like he'll be able to focus on that for now.
