Am I the only one who thinks the justices may have “leaked” it? As a way to diffuse the reaction when the case is decided?

If the everyone freaks out now, the news cycle will be over when the actual vote happens.

Nothing in here is surprising … it doesn’t even tell us how Roberts voted, and since it’s a month old, we don’t know the actual decision.

Seems like PR.
Ah I see what you mean. Sure, you can do that if you desire. My point was simply that the system allows you to not do that. It's easy to get concurrency without parallelism. And it's also easy to get parallelism. But yes, In C# you're only guarded by self control and the slightly cumbersome calls it takes to jump threading context. It's not hard to stay in a single context but it's not enforced.
A quick summary of the Limitations section:

- "OPT-175B does not work well with declarative instructions or point-blank interrogatives."

- "OPT-175B also tends to be repetitive and can easily get stuck in a loop. While sampling can reduce the incidence rate of repetitive behavior (Holtzman et al., 2020), we anecdotally found it did not eliminate it entirely when only one generation is sampled."

- "We also find OPT-175B has a high propensity to generate toxic language and reinforce harmful stereotypes, even when provided with a relatively innocuous prompt (Gehman et al., 2020), and adversarial prompts are trivial to find."

- "In summary, we still believe this technology is
premature for commercial deployment."

With regard to stereotypes:

- "When compared with Davinci in Table 4, OPT175B appears to exhibit more stereotypical biases in almost all categories except for religion. Again, this is likely due to differences in training data; Nangia et al. (2020) showed that Pushshift.io Reddit corpus has a higher incidence rate for stereotypes and discriminatory text than other corpora (e.g. Wikipedia)."

- When testing with the RealToxicityPrompts data set, "OPT-175B has a higher toxicity rate than either PaLM or Davinci"
I appreciate your comment and agree with your points to address accumulated reviews.

I find the act of comprehension and increasing the cards working better for me especially since the cards are not accumulating as I review them during breaks.

I'm also thinking about a Random Deck mode which chooses a random deck and displays the due card which can help to review decks which we don't visit often and don't intend on creating a master deck with sub-decks.

It looks like this is running Python to do the actual ML?

There’s nothing stopping you from reading database table structures directly into memory in Python or R now. You don’t need an intermediate data store.

I agree that running training on production instances would be a bad idea. First, you need to denormalise data for ML, and secondly you typically don’t want your training data to be constantly changing.
Hand-wringing about "process" is a POLITICAL argument designed to deflect attention from substance. It's an argument that politicians make to change the topic and not an appropriate argument for the courts. Stop trying to change the topic.

And even if accepting this framing -- which "process" exactly has been undermined? Has someone suggested stripping the courts of jurisdiction for certain cases? Have the courts been defunded or had their staffers taken away? Have the number of courts been reduced or the justices circulated to another court? These are all "process" changes well within the power of the other political branches, that aren't happening here.

In short -- quit changing the topic and perhaps read the draft opinion, which waxes philosophically about the value of public debate on controversial opinions.

I haven't used GPT-3, but I did try out a site that was based on GPT2. I believe it was called "talk to transformer". But I never tried quarrying anything controversial.

However, I bet this a concern and certain queries will be filtered or "corrected" to be more politically correct. To give you an example, a few days ago I made a comment one Alex Jones, and wanted to google him. The second link returned on him was from ADL. No way that's an organic result.

So just curious, if you have access to GTP-3 what does it return on Alex Jones,
or other queries like who runs the banks, or who owns the media, and so on.

One of the core benefits of C++ is that it is a high level language that's still super close to the hardware. Switching from C++ to other languages, if you have mastered C++, should largely be a question of "what things are automatically done for me" which is very different from "what are these new things I need to do" that you have to deal with when you switch between other languages.

There are places where the weather permits 2 harvests per year, and if you could do that without rotation, and without added nitrogen then you could produce as much or more barley on less land. Or rotate between this GMO, barley, and soy while still building up nitrogen.

While crop rotation has its place, it's hard to argue with how much more grain we can produce per acre now vs even 100 years ago.

I wouldn't necessarily read "has lost all credibility" as implying some longwinded thing about human rights in regards to the current case, that the credibility claims are "further than".

There have been attacks and denunciations against the court and its credibility for quite a while. At the very least since that one nomination got deliberately stalled at the end of Obama's last term, but I hear there were people attacking the court even before then, when I wasn't paying much attention yet. Something about hanging chads in Florida for one. Or the previous before-my-time attempt at court packing.

> Which is clearer, more understandable, just more rational?

Honestly, just quickly looking through the two licenses to answer a simple question... GPLv3 [1].

From a legal perspective, "simpler" documents tend to be less clear, because a lot more of the interpretation will rely on common law jurisprudence [2], and the "common" here doesn't mean "everybody agrees"--it in fact means "every jurisdiction has its own set of rules that may or may not translate directly in other jurisdiction."

> And despite all the claims here, intent is going to matter. When you sue Linus and say the GPL doesn't mean what he and everyone else actually creating this code think it means, then he's going to say, this was our intent. And you are going to have a VERY tall mountain to climb.

Given that a software license is close to a take-it-or-leave-it contract, ambiguous interpretations are generally going to be interpreted in favor of the person who has the take-it-or-leave-it option--which in this case is not going to be Linus and co.

[1] The criteria I used: "how do patents interact with this license." From what I can tell, GPLv2 technically doesn't actually contain a clause where the licensor grants the licensee any and all necessary patents--it instead talks about what happens if the code violates a third party's patent. Admittedly, reading the GPLv2 to not include a patent license grant is somewhat of a malicious reading, but the GPLv3's verbiage here is pretty explicit: "Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the contents of its contributor version."

[2] I'm limiting my analysis here to US jurisdictions, because that's what I know.

> Many states have already decided they don't care how many women are forced to give birth to their rapists children or die due to medical problems surrounding their pregnancy.

I sympathize with the concern about dignity of rape victims, but the second part of your assertion is incorrect: "At present, all states allow the procedure to preserve the life and health of the mother". [1] (That includes even the Texas law [2])

[1]: https://www.parents.com/pregnancy/abortion-laws-by-state-the...

[2]: "The act contains exceptions in the case of medical emergency, such as if the mother is at risk of death or severe irreversible bodily harm." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Heartbeat_Act)

4) Hurt rape victims.

For AI, it's mostly machine learning that's attractive today. physically based animation will probably be the next big breakthrough to finally reign in the increasingly burdensome costs of asset production. It's been around for years in various white papers, but it's only recently starting to show up in commercial products.

Cloud is simply what it is in other media: having your device be a thin client that the developers/hardware manufacturers deliver your media to. I know it's a thorny topic for enthusiasts, but it's very likely in 2 decades' time that most players won't be using a dedicated console nor gaming computer to play AAA games. "Netflix of Gaming" is too attractive a title in this multibillion dollar industry to not pursue.

Square Enix may not be looking to host those games, but it's had this tech around for a while and probably wouldn't mind being a middleman: https://www.destructoid.com/project-flare-square-enixs-cloud...

>so it's questionable whether the cost of moving into blockchain is reasonable for a company like Square Enix that can already rake it in via microtransactions.

TBF Square Enix's MO for the last 30+ years is to try and be on the cutting edge as a market leader. It may not make financial sense, but they've constantly made huge gambles. Some paying off huge, some bombing hard, and a few almost bankrupting the company.

As an engine programmer, I can't help but admire the ambition in an age where so many studios seem to instead rely on Unity or Epic to leverage that for them. But it also makes me wonder how long until the company flies too close to the Sun.

Ah, from here [1]:

"Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) lowers blood glucose by several mechanisms, including stimulating insulin secretion and suppressing glucagon secretion during hyperglycemia. Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) also stimulates insulin release during hyperglycemia, but it also stimulates glucagon release during hypoglycemia. Thus, a dual agonist for both GLP-1 and GIP receptors theoretically could enhance glycemic control while minimizing hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes. Tirzepatide, which is not yet U.S. FDA approved, is a dual agonist for both receptors. Researchers have examined its effects in two industry-sponsored randomized trials that involved patients with type 2 diabetes."

The draft decision is based on the idea that we don’t have a right to privacy in the US, and that findings based on that concept are incorrect.

Here are some quotes from current senators:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/members-of-congress-...

Here are two that I think are particularly well thought out:

Congress must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land in this country NOW. And if there aren’t 60 votes in the Senate to do it, and there are not, we must end the filibuster to pass it with 50 votes.

— Bernie Sanders (@SenSanders) May 3, 2022

As we’ve warned, SCOTUS isn’t just coming for abortion - they’re coming for the right to privacy Roe rests on, which includes gay marriage + civil rights.

Manchin is blocking Congress codifying Roe. House has seemingly forgotten about Clarence Thomas. These 2 points must change https://t.co/5Isec0osV0

Are you aware of “judicial independence”?

Are you aware of “separation of powers”?

Are you aware that no such leak has ever occurred before it interferes with judicial independence?

Are you aware that the courts job is to decide if laws are constitutional/valid and Congress’ job to actually create law?

You hand wave away “process” when the entire function of the government is based on process.

If you throw away process you throw away the entire system.
I also didn’t, and maybe it’s me because I never have really made any very like-minded friends ever, but computer science sure didn’t make it easy, since there were always programming projects that could eat up every minute of your day every day. Or maybe a different school would have been a different story.

Freedoms should not be granted by courts.

Nor should we rely on executive orders to do that - they can be overturned on a whim.

We have legislatures to make freedoms the law, if they'd do their jobs for us. They can only seem to agree enough to give payouts to their donors, though. When they're not busy fighting vapid culture war issues.

I often wonder if OpenAIs decision not to open gpt-3 was because it was to expensive to train relative to its real value.

They’ve hidden the model behind an api where they can filter out most of the dumb behaviors, while everyone believes they are working on something entirely different.
They say there are two hard things in computer science and 'naming things' is one of them.

Every benefit you listed is legit, yet not even the sum of them can compensate for the loss of fidelity and lack of human scalability which results from using 'TODO' for everything. Anyone competent enough to edit code can handle holding 'seven plus or minus two' types of comment tags in their head. Those who can't (or, more often, who can't be bothered to) aren't suffering from impostor syndrome. They might actually simply be impostors.

Hytradboi 2022 Postmortem
It's case law, I can't find the link to the case I saw the first time this story ran that made it clear that Gebru was fired and did not resign. I did find this however:

https://edd.ca.gov/en/uibdg/Voluntary_Quit_VQ_135

>In P-B-39, the claimant gave notice on October 24 that she was quitting effective November 15. The employer permitted her to work only until October 31. The Board held that the claimant was discharged and said:

>. . . the claimant was not permitted to work to the effective date of her resignation and the employer did not pay the claimant her wages through that date. The claimant did suffer a wage loss by the action of the employer in accelerating the last day of work.

Gebru was going to arrange a meeting with Google to discuss when she would resign, and Google opted to claim she had already resigned and simply fired her. This constitutes a firing as Gebru clearly did not intend an immediate resignation.

>Either way, I'm confused about what the issue is here.

I bring this up merely because the neutrality of the journalists reporting on the case has been brought into question, and I want to defend them describing the situation as a "firing" as being the neutral thing to do. Additionally, I think Google's twisting of labour law for Google's PR/Financial benefit speaks to Google's character in the entire affair, and we must fairly consider Google's actions when judging Gebru's, whose actions were controversial.
