Why is this seen as such a high valuation?!

1) OpenAI got $1b to burn on cloud compute and they did that. So they obviously need a big raise for more compute.

2) Stability is looking to raise at a $1b valuation, so clearly OpenAI must be worth at least 10x.

3) OpenAI has grown their brand immensely during the pandemic and now a recession. So clearly the whole team is outperforming.

4) There are tons of people in the YC community who will think gdb and sama are solidly worth 10 figures for what they’ve done here.

So doesn’t this number seem.. small?

Wait you mean there might be doubts about the business?

"But cops also do not get to decide what they investigate based on their own beliefs and biases."

Actually they do. It's called law enforcement discretion. They could watch you get murdered and have no legal responsibility to help you (they would likely be fired, but that's about it).

Autoencoder for robust prediction of personalized clinical drug response
Many immigrants form vast-spanning yet tight social networks in their host nations. I know religious immigrant leaders who easily get mutiple times the road mileage I used to get in my peak >1-hour-commute years. These in promptu institutions provide an immense benefit to their community by organzing activities, giving assistance in their dealings with the broader society and maintaining a sense of home. Organizing this costs money and it is entirely funded by donations from the community. Put frankly, a cashless society would mean these communities would be taxed out of existence.
By the time you use your horn it's too late for the most common fatal multi-vehicle accidents, which are crossing traffic incidents.

A cop recently rolled into my neighborhood after the hurricane here in Florida while my kids and about 8 other kids were climbing on a fallen tree. He stopped and walked over to check things out, then talked to the kids and gave my 10 year old a coupon to an ice cream shop that said "I was caught doing something cool" and then posed for pictures with all the kids.

The day before that 6 cops with chain saws in full uniform parked in front of my house. They spent several hours cutting up and hauling a fallen tree with my neighbors.

Maybe people should talk more about the good things cops do.
The primary theme was mostly accurate, but the secondary themes were a mix of accurate and completely inaccurate. The needs/desires and recommendation/you might own were completely off. The possible themes were somewhat applicable, but seem like they could be to most anyone.
Yes, it is, as you note, extremely counterproductive for employees to be heavily focused on "impact" or "visibility" rather than advancing corporate goals. It is also the unfortunate norm at FAANG-type corporations and is caused by the confluence of 1) a lot of smart and competitive and ambitious people, 2) tremendous monetary rewards for climbing the corporate ladder, and 3) the unwelcome possibility of being left behind for not climbing the corporate ladder fast enough (ask your colleagues how people with low "promotion velocity" are perceived) until you reach a terminal level.

The least undignified way to play this toxic game is to align your "impact"-generating efforts with your business unit goals as much as you reasonably can and use that as ammunition for why you are more promotion-worthy than your colleagues and to focus all your efforts on being promoted to a terminal level quickly where the need for these stupid antics is lessened. If you're simply not willing to play the game at all, your days at a FAANG are numbered.
Killing One Bird with Two-and-a-Half Stones in Mac OS X Mail
Microsoft got in trouble for anti-competitive practices with IE, because they were tightly integrating their OS with their browser in ways that meant that their browser was uniquely enabled by the OS to do things that third-party

It was actually worse than this--when Microsoft was ordered to separate IE from Windows, they lied and said IE was integral to Windows and that it could not operate without it.

Turned out Windows worked just fine without IE and Microsoft ended up settling with the government.

But they do get to decide what they investigate based on the DA's polices. It's a waste of everyone's time to investigate crimes that won't be charged regardless of evidence.

The city affirmatively decided to decriminalize petty crime. Why would you blame the cops for that.

This is also my biggest frustration with macOS because you can use same application for multiple activities. A browser can be used for researching a problem in the code you are writing and at the same time to play music from Amazon Music. Wy not allow those activities to be grouped seperately in different windows and desktops? macOS seems averse to allowing this and Windows and Linux seems to be much better at allowing them.

> There's a reason we have a history of unwarranted respect for cops and military members. It's not because they always deserve it, but because you want them to feel like they do.

In other words, either we show them obsequience and respect they don't deserve, or else they'll "act accordingly" and just start robbing and killing people en masse.

That's no better than the mafia. Actually it's worse than the mafia because at least when the mob shakes people down it's illegal.
I don't know if your service is getting hugged or what, but I can see it send off the websocket mouse click events, but it never seems to receive an actionable response. Just regular small packets I assume are keep-alives. Why does it send the screen and client size data back? Fingerprinting? I never see it send either the username, and it mentions the other site when I change it in the UI. What advantage does a websocket offer here over a standard xml http request to a regular API?

Eh, I don't think it's so causal. In my mind it's the culture that keeps crime low and the laws have merely been created to reflect the values of that culture.

Ugh. It feels like so many of these models are trying to censor NSFW material.
So you want it to be open source, but not too open, because then bad people will use it. Good luck with that. If you want to filter everything behind a SaaS like OpenAI go ahead, but then you can't call it open source. And maybe that would have been the right choice. But Pandora's box is open now.
Considering some of the comments already in this thread it seems the space considered is significant and at least it's a horoscope that is tailored to the audience, i.e. it's not merely twelve (or so) categories.

It's up to debate I guess if a well tailored horoscope is equivalent to an assessment, but technically both accomplish the same thing. The scary thing is both are indistinguishable from magic from where I stand. And I do put way more faith in the machine as opposed to a stranger who (arguably) knows less facts about me.
> some people don’t want companies to use their open source libraries/code for a profit.

IMO the AGPL goes a long way to solving that problem. But if the AGPL is not for you, I suppose you could use some non-commercial license terms. It seems like "closed source" is a much better fit for folks who want a great deal of control over licensees. In practice, "closed source" code can be published for licensees to see but instead of granting terms to all comers you could force people to ask you for a license, review their use case and only then decide to grant a copyright license -- with or without source.

A 4 hour battery for the entirety of world primary energy is about the same cost as one year of auto industry revenue. SIBs require no scarce resources and no toxic elements -- they're basically fancy dirt.

For longer scale storage, there are electrolyser industries spooling up in multiple countries. Some of the individual factories are big enough to produce the entire presently installed base in 5 years. Existing OCGT plants have minimal capital and fixed costs, and can burn hydrogen or ammonia basically at cost -- yielding indefinite storage for what is effectively a fixed 4x multiple of the cost of energy.
I'm saying that the way we run society tilts that risk/reward payoff absurdly in favor of reward for a certain class of people by eliminating their risk. That is, by definition, unjust.
Trick is to have the light held with some kind of rubber band type thingy, so that in an impact, it just breaks off sacrificially. But I guess, in the unlikely event, if the impact is at just the wrong angle, it just drives through the impact-absorber. But I don't think it's possible to fall straight down (negative Y speed, but no X/Z speed vector) when travelling at speed.

At least that's how my bicycle helmet light works.
Yes, it's easy for humans to behave in truly heinous ways if you give them the power to inflict violence on you, with next to no accountability counterbalancing it.

The free and open web, to the extent we have it, only exists today because Microsoft wasn’t allowed to force IE, Active X, Silverlight and the rest of their technologies down everyone’s throat. Oh, and JScript [1], their proprietary version of JavaScript would have been the industry standard.

We wouldn’t have the W3C or WHATWG creating open standards for the web had Microsoft been allowed to essentially turn the web into another Microsoft runtime environment.

> By shifting the discussion away from turnkey tyranny, we're admitting, at least for the moment, a defeat in that argument.

I would think it is the opposite. Focusing on turnkey tyranny puts focus away from the more fundamental point of privacy of personal data/communication to just some possible negative consequence. But the privacy is value regardless of these consequences. If my communication is scanned then my privacy is violated, that is bad even if there is no tyranny and no negative consequence to me.
i7 exists for those who want top performance but also realize that paying a couple more Franklins to get <1% more performance is ridiculous unless you really and truly need that.

To put it another way, i9 exists for those who either need the bestest performance or want bragging rights. i7 exists for those who need/want the best performance.

>Isn't it still unsupported to upgrade from one stable Debian version to another?

It's always worked for me. Change repos to new release name. sudo apt update, apt dist-upgrade, and everything typically works. On one machine I went through 3 consecutive point releases with now issues. You can also hold off on upgrading right away, as the old stable branch is supported for (iirc) another year.

edit: as far as I know it's officially supported to upgrade this way

Story time. Many many moons ago, when I was in high school, I had a problem with people stealing my lunch. See, the band hall (I was in band) was right next to the cafeteria, unlike my (and everyone else's) locker. So it was common practice to leave our lunches in cubby holes in the band hall.

One day, I got my lunch only to find that the chips and the dessert (Oreos) had been stolen. When I got home that day, myself and a friend devised a plan. We carefully unscrewed several Oreos and removed the center portion of the filling, leaving a ring of filling around the outside. We replaced the removed filling with cayenne pepper and reassembled them. It was actually my friend who handled the cayenne pepper powder, and he mentioned that his fingers were tingling by the time we were done.

Then next day, I put my lunch in the same place, and I also put a microcassette recorder in an adjacent cubby, set to the slowest recording speed. Sure enough, they went for it again, and this time I got the reaction on tape. No idea who it was, I was just happy that it worked out so well ;) I do wonder if I still have that tape somewhere..

I can see how your prototype defends against corrosion, not so much this b-parasite toy.

What I don't see anyone talking about is the impact of dielectric moisture absorption[1], which is typically around 0.3-0.5% over 24 hours exposure for cheaper FR-4 on the market, let alone how this product intends to maintain sensor calibration over time.

I'd expect to see external corrosion impact at the solder joints first, especially around the battery terminals, but corrosion creep may happen alot sooner than that: vias in the b-parasite prototype are clearly tented[2], but that masking is superficial and won't protect against hygroscopic exposure from the inside; being open source certainly doesn't preclude hobbyists from making even worse material decisions either.

Um... no? Entrapment is about being induced to commit a crime you wouldn't otherwise have committed, and it's a lot more relevant for things like drugs or terrorist plots where the government information is outright giving you the things that's illegal for you to have.

For theft, it's quite hard to think of a situation where someone could put you in a state of mind that stealing this thing isn't against the law. The closest I can come is a signed statement by the police department saying "it's not against the law to steal this," and that's more because some jurisdictions will give you the defense if the government lies to you about the law. (And I suspect it still wouldn't qualify because it isn't exactly reasonable to believe that theft could be legal.)

That's fair. I supposed what I was getting at is: OpenBSD seems... mono-maniacal(?), and that's one reason it remains niche.

Powerful people are pulling strings to control AI everywhere. OpenAI is exactly the opposite of open. Now someone is pushing on Stability AI to close it up, I believe those models are more powerful or dangerous than they seem, and it got some people scared in some way.

Well it called me right out.
The headjoint of a flute is a key part which significantly affects the sound quality and timbre of the instrument - it is by no means an “adapter” to the rest of the instrument. It is common in fact to buy flutes in separate pieces, with the body by one manufacturer and the headjoint by another. And $2000 for the headjoint and $4000 for the body (Australian dollars) would be a pretty standard price for a good-quality student flute which would see someone through a performance diploma.

similar: you can do SIMD "within" a single integer type with some fun bit hacks.

ex: for an integer (u32, u64, u128), you can test "all at once" whether any byte == 0, or any nibble == 0, etc... like: [0]

fn u32_any_byte_eqz(x: u32) -> bool {
let t = x.wrapping_sub(0x0101_0101);
let u = !x & 0x8080_8080;
let v = t & u;
v != 0
}

which generates pretty compact assembly:

example::u32_any_byte_eqz:
lea eax, [rdi - 16843009]
andn eax, edi, eax
test eax, -2139062144
setne al
ret

even more powerful, you can test whether any byte `b` is in the range `m < b < n` "all at once", where `0 <= m <= 127` and `0 <= n <= 128`. [1]

fn u32_has_byte_between(x: u32, m: u32, n: u32) -> bool {
let mask = 0x0101_0101;
let s = mask * 127;
let y = mask * 128;
let w = mask * (127 + n);
let t = mask * (127 - m);

let u = x & s;
let z = (w - u) & (!x) & (u + t) & y;

z != 0
}

by changing the mask you can also select which bytes/nibbles you care about.

i've used these to pretty great effect when writing a montecarlo tree search. you just need some care to tightly bit-pack the core structs, then you're golden.
