It's actually also quite frustrating when financial institutions don't have proper secure practices in place. If you've ever wired money from SFCU, you'd know they would ask you to fill out a form with a handwritten wire password. You submit the form and someone from the credit union would call you to verify your wire password.

When I received the call from them, they asked for my date of birth and other information. I explained that I'm not comfortable revealing my details to an incoming call and to give me their extension instead. When I did this with BoA or Chase, they'd immediately understand my concern.

The SFCU person on the line, however, gave me some passive aggressive statement about me causing extra work. This was followed by me calling their official number on their web page and having to wait about 20-30 minutes to get through to the extension number to the same person, which proved that the previous call was legit. However, said person proceeded to mock me for having wasted our time.

I love SFCU but they really need to understand how scammers work.
Well I'm not a FAANG-er and I didn't downvote, but it seems weird that the ones at FAANG would be so obviously less skilled than the others, It would be believable that they were the same skill level but otherwise seems weird.

Never heard of this being a problem in this part of the world, but great job figuring out a fix.

I don't understand why it took high school students to do this.

Not exactly the same thing, but related: I think everyone believes Pi is a Normal Number, but it isn’t proven. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number

I think if we could prove Pi is normal, we could probably also prove your statement to be true (but I’m not sure about that)
What was your question?
Yeah, I saw that from your post history. Could you get a doctor to sign you a note giving you a medical exemption?

I don't think this is really a mask issue, it's a, 'people not taking psychological suffering seriously' issue. It's a bit like why everybody is so blase about depression, even though it's the number-one killer for many age groups.

I believe before claiming AGI is possible or impossible, one would need to define the operational features as well as the properties of what an AGI system is or can do. The primary problem with modern day ML research is that all of the folks that do the research including the major labs think that using one or two primary algorithms is enough to simulate general intelligence. But to think that an algorithm or two can have the ability to solve the hundreds of operational requirements needed to fully emulate intelligent behavior is misguided. What are these requirements, you say? Let's start with language. To substantially solve language understanding, you would need: physical world models, quantitative processing, long term memory, working memory, theory of mind, a discrete situational simulator, plan understanding, detection and generation, language grounding, functional and behavioral models of physical objects, temporal representations of events, affect and emotional processing, reflective understanding models and so many others.

> There is a similarity to consuming alcohol, where one would say "know your tolerance level".

Sure, I guess there would be a similarity if you drank from what you thought was a new can of beer and it contained Everclear instead, but having the same taste as beer and having a delayed effect. I'll spell it out for you again: it was not 30 mg, it was several hundred mg at least, labeled as 30mg. Please stop it with the straw man.

And what difference does it make what year it was? You seem real keen on pointing that out as if it made any difference at all. If you want to make that kind of argument, cite some data that shows it matters, otherwise miss me with that. Did something happen between the 18th and the 26th year that medical marijuana was legal in California that I'm not aware of?
The second quote somewhat contradicts the first. Or at least minimizes the point.

> Ruby might superficially syntactically look like Smalltalk in a few places, but the actual semantics of the language and the overall toolset are nothing alike.

As someone who has used cuis smalltalk (a squeak fork), and ruby, quite extensively, I would disagree. Ruby takes its entire object model (and much of its dynamism) from smalltalk.

Ruby is akin to taking one part lisp, one part smalltalk, and a dash of perl and shell, throwing it into a blender and cranking the power on.
I don't really see the advantage over Bloomberg or Refinitiv. If I would really want to use Python within the application, there is already Refinitiv's codebook (Jupyter within Eikon). Both Bloomberg and Refinitiv are also offering an API (or too many APIs actually) and I don't see that many users of the terminal or Eikon would like to or have the resources to actually develop or maintain a fork of the application.
The issue would then be if the most resonant one is not the one you want, that would be a noise you have to filtered. Whilst practicality mean we can’t be optimal due to size, is it a major matter. Can the filter be efficient or make efficient by electronic. At least in 70s when radio listening is peak, the antenna is key to good reception.
It's a matter of time. We automate to work less, not more.

Titaa #28: Visual Poetry, Humans and Humanoids
Inputs can be replicated in other forms (cameras for example for visual input and computer vision).

There’s a common misconception that AGI would be human like, consciousness is a mostly poorly defined orthogonal rabbit hole to the AGI question (and the goal alignment issue).

That said, you’re right the ability to train is dependent on inputs.

If you’re curious about this stuff it’s really worth reading the stuff I mentioned to get a sense for what the problem is. I only suggest them because I would have made a similar comment to you a few years ago before getting a better sense for what the problems are actually describing.

Maybe they can be reduced to a news company? Remove the tool “terminal” essentially.
So we are intelligent statistical engines but usually very bad at updating our priors. If you make a machine that can drive a car, but doesn’t like to because it’s father frequently had road rage, is that AGI? If you build that but then “fix” that behavior out of it then is it still AGI?
Yes, they will. To ignore the threat posed by imminent AGI is to bury one's head in the sand.

Stockfish is ~3500 elo; Carlsen is a relatively pathetic 2864. Six years ago, AlphaGo crushed the top human player, winning 4 games out of 5. The evolution of language models clearly demonstrates an accelerating trend toward output that passes the Turing test, and also toward output that causes harm to humans. The signs are there, in plain sight.
It looks complicated because OP is describing the situations both before and after the introduction of go mod.

> I don't know how you think that programme means anything other than a centralized decision making process.

That might be a language issue. “Programme” (or related words) does not necessarily have the same centralisation nuance in different languages. No need to be harsh if it could just be an interpretation issue. (Though yes, the first post is pretty wild)
An AGI would have no concept of morals or good or bad or even anything resembling a will.

Therefore does it not follow that the only possibility of malevolence or benevolence would derive from the instructions of humans. By which point I expect society to be much more evolved and aligned (as perhaps we merge with the AI) so as to not have gravely conflicting interests.

Perhaps in fact, meaning itself, a human construct, will cease and render such concerns of good vs bad obsolete?
In my understanding (diffeq in college), the singularity in black holes and futurology are both special cases of the relatively old concept of a "singularity" in a function, which is (technically) something like a spot where the function stops being expressible as a series. The most interesting kind is where that happens because it went infinite, but IIRC it can also just not be defined there. Point is, neither Einstein nor Vinge nor especially Kurzweil invented it. :)
It probably won’t be nearly as expensive as a Bloomberg terminal?

Lapsed Bloomberg terminal user here. I used it to trade everything under the sun, as well as read the news, and communicate with counterparties.

Good luck to these guys, I do think it's a market that needs more entrants.

But it's quite an uphill struggle. The thing about Bloomberg is the completeness. Not only do they offer all data on all exchanges plus OTC, they've done it by partnerships with a huge range of players. Very hard to get in on, you need an army of bizdev to maintain this.

I was lucky enough to work across asset classes. Their data plus into tools that each kind of user needs. Volatility surfaces, bond pricers, currency forward calculators, credit default information. That's a lot of spreadsheets that you as a user won't have to write yourself.

Then they have basically a whole newspaper, of pretty high quality.

And then they have an approved chat function. This is not a technically difficult thing, but again you need every compliance department to approve use.

They even have a legal arm where they gather legal news, I never used it but it sounds huge as well. And restaurant reviews. I used to joke that they had a dating site for users too, but it would not surprise me if that were true.

All that for only 2k a month. Consider your average user on Bloomberg might be on hundreds of thousands total comp, or a team with that comp would share one.
This looks promising. I'm amazed at the kinds of places WebAssembly has found its way into.

I myself am working on putting WebAssembly as a UI reconciliation engine.

1. You write your UI component spec (similar to React) in a language of your choice.

2. This compiles down to a WASM module, that knows how your state interplays with your UI tree.

3. A platform specific embedder can then write a tiny layer of renderer that translates commands from the WebAssmelby VM into native UI updates.

This way we can liberate UI programming from being too close to a platform and possibly could run on servers (damn fast SSR)

The main difference between male and female is cost of reproduction. Sperm is tiny and can be produced in massive quantities. Eggs are much larger and take more energy to produce. This difference is then carried into other parts of reproductive strategy. The two sexes reach a state of equilibrium with each other in terms of strategy.

Females are super careful about picking a mate because they spend months making an egg. They have a sunk cost. And females are relatively more caring about young because it is cheaper than making a new egg.

This access control forces males to evolve to be pleasing and provide some proof of quality. And this proof of quality can create more of a sunk cost for the male. They stick around and protect the young because it is easier to do that than find another female, impress them, build a nest etc.

Also, sex is very very obvious in terms of primary sexual characteristics. We have literally evolved to focus on those things. But outside of reproduction it is far less obvious in biology. On an individual level it is better to think of sex as an output rather than an input. Things don't happen because of the sex variables state, rather sexual characteristics are a consequence of other processes.
It depends on what you do, who your target audience is, how competitive it is to flag someone's attention from a pool of candidates, and how competitive it is to get the position. The tech field comments here perhaps capture one extreme of that with recruiters and keywords so I'll give a contrast.

If you are in academia you probably teach courses, get grants, are a PI, publish and present at conferences, get awards, be invited to give lectures, contribute to books or some combination of all these over your career and your CV should reflect that. I've seen academic resumes with 40+ pages of publications, 5+ pages of grants alone without any effort at padding. This stuff is important when applying for promotion and grants, getting involved at a higher level in or out of your institution even if you aren't looking for a new job.

Another case is when applying for something competitive e.g. graduate or medical school where transcripts attest to academic achievement and a CV should be highlighting various domains of their work ethic, scientific achievement, extracurricular achievements to round an individual out and score points on standardized rubrics. A longer resume e.g. 4/5 pages probably doesn't penalize compared to losing points by not reporting on this at all even if a bit excessive.

I keep my academic resume around ~2 pages of core content and then a longer running bibliography. I trim sections of my life as they becomes successively irrelevant e.g. undergraduate awards/jobs/volunteering, medical school involvement/leadership/research (publications stay elsewhere), etc. as these all helped me to get a next stage but are no longer relevant.
I didn't read the paper, but going along with the sun metaphor, your description kind of sounds like "hot ball in sky that radiates light". It still doesn't describe fusion.

Somehow I brought an 8 core desktop to its knees because a combination of heavy disk+network IO and using pycharm caused windows to just stop servicing pycharm at all, until I stopped the download. I had free memory, disk, and cpu time, I think interrupt processing was stalled or filled? But the hardware was idle.
I ran Cat6 from my router-equipped living room into my bedroom. I'm very pleased with the results, here's what I did.

I chose a Ubiquiti "Access Point AC In-wall." It's a WiFi AP, with 4 GbE ports, and draws PoE, which means no plugs needed at the point of installation. It looks very clean, just a neat rectangular box affixed to the wall, delivering both WiFi and 4 wired jacks (one doesn't work, oh well).

Using a manual drywall saw, I cut a hole in my wall, at the point of installation but smaller than the faceplate, so it would be covered. Next I used an 18 inch spade bit to drill through the sill plate of my floor. This part was the most nerve-wracking: I couldn't see what I was doing through the drywall, and sill plates are very hard. Eventually I busted through, and left the drill bit in the hole as a marker.

I climbed down into the crawlspace and fished the Ethernet cable up through the hole, with some help from my wife. I then ran the other end to the living room, just in the crawlspace dirt (stapling it to studs was possible but didn't seem important); the other side had a pre-drilled hole for cable and I fished it up through.

I'm not especially handy but wiring my home for Ethernet was a manageable adventure, give it a try!

In terms of evolution through the donation and acceptance of information carrying material, the most bizarre ritual I have witnessed is that of Developa Linuxia:

git format-patch --stdout | mail

... | git am

It is recommended that this be seen in the wild. The beasts that exchange material this way are rare and ancient but we are fortunate that it is easy to observe them performing their rites. They make a point of enacting them publicly, in open clearings know as mailing lists. You will note that, in comparison to more evolved techniques, what first seems like clumsy fumbling takes on a primal beauty of its own.

These creatures are aware of more modern practices and yet they choose to remain in their own evolutionary niche, in part, because they lament the way in which Developa intercourse has been cheapened and corrupted by an unmentionable website named “something”hub.com.
Well, if the sources of financial data will remain to be AlphaVantage and Reddit, yes, but as soon as they would get the really interesting data, I don't think they could keep the prices low. Even only access to one IBOR from the administrator can cost you a lot.

Hve you tried putting these two pieces of the puzzle together? They are pretty clear I think: Vaginismus is a disorder because it affects women who are trying to have consensual sexual relations. If it were only happening when someone was trying to coerce sexual relations, it would NOT have been labeled a disorder.

Simple as that.
