It's not extreme to be an absolutist here like myself.

The best things about the U.S. system are simple. If you are born on her land, you are a citizen. If you are a citizen over 18* you can vote. You have the right to free speech and religion as long as it doesn't injure anyone else.

These decisions were made in part to reject the British monarch's divine right to rule and establish popular sovereignty. I am not a historian; this is not the full picture, but this is how I understand it.

To me, talk of disenfranchisement is categorically dangerous because it undermines the foundation of the government, and walks back the 250-year work of civil rights activists to establish what is today for most, a pretty good system.

So yeah, should we let kids vote? Maybe, why not.

Should we take that right away from anyone based on fuzzy criteria or a doctor's evaluation? No, and I refer you to the history of the post-reconstruction South as an example.

Why, a curated list of curated lists, of course.

The amount of bikeshedding over obvious rotation modifiers on display in this thread is asinine.

I think this is nearly as destructive of a perspective. People have become way, way too obsessed with what is entertaining and are willing to accept way too much horrible stuff in the name of the lulz.

It’s really not a game show. There are important ideas being tested and norms being created (or destroyed).
This is really well done. The 'reader mode' is very clean. I really like the 'Table of Contents' that show up on the left as well as whether the article has been scrolled to the end (reading completed).

Certain features like widening and reducing the width of the 'reader mode', as well as changing font size, I've not seen earlier. The highlighting feature is also great.

The 'Library', which shows list of pages I've uncluttered and highlights is awesome!

On top of that, the fact that it is open source, is fantastic.

Kudos for all the work and providing to everyone for free.

You've already provided an 'Export Data' option as well!

In terms of monetization, I can think of -

1. import from that exported CSV

2. seamless sync when I'm using different browsers or systems. Essentially, a paid account via which the sync happens seamlessly.

All in all a fantastic piece of open source software. Thank you!

can we please stop with this 'freedom of speech' bogeyman that Musk spouts? He cherry-picks what previously banned accounts get unbanned, he fires employees for making public tweets he doesn't like, as well as firing employees for making comments in company slack channels critical of his leadership - which is a notable departure from previous company policy.

Of course if employees don't believe in leaderships vision they might not be a good fit. Of course a company looking to cut costs is going to look at trimming their workforce. This all makes sense, it just has absolutely nothing to do with free speech.
No. The whole point of these models is that they combine information across domains to be able to create new images. If you trained something just on, say baseball, you could only generate the normal things that happen in baseball. If you wanted to generate a picture of a bear surfing around the bases after hitting a home run, you'd need a model that also had bears and surfing in the training data, and enough other stuff to understand the relationships involved in positioning everything and changing poses.
I'm just like you, I've some period of productive work and then cannot do anything. I'm shy of few courses to get a minor in business administration because I couldn't do the mandatory class presentation. Thankfully I managed to graduate with a very low GPA with help of meds. Most normal people don't understand the challenge you face, but fortunately there are some medicines that work, but it takes a while. It took me 10+ years to figure out what works and what to avoid.

What I'm currently on that helps me are

2. Wellbutrin

3. Adzenys XR-ODT (This is ADHD medicine prescribed to kids, it helps me better than Aderral or Ritlin.)

I hope this helps.

Norvig wrote an article or post where he deemed Python to be “an acceptable lisp” (or something like that, I may not have it exactly right).
It's an interesting tech demo for a very niche use case: when you need both a decentralized database and a way to avoid editing history (e.g. "double-spending"). All of the uses you mentioned only need one or the other. If you need to keep track of transactions like a ledger, it's trivial to use a normal, centralized database with a published transaction log for trust-free audits. That gets you protection against double-spending without any of the inefficiency of blockchain tech. For the other side, you can have something like bittorrent or IPFS (which is not blockchain tech, BTW) where there is no central gatekeeper, but rewriting history doesn't matter. There's just darn little in that intersection of the Venn diagram.
We still do! But the percentage of such publishers is smaller than back then, maybe against the desires if would-be publishers. Do you think it was easy to offer paid online content and get paid in 1998?

From the source: https://www.winehq.org/

> Wine (originally an acronym for "Wine Is Not an Emulator") is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows applications on several POSIX-compliant operating systems, such as Linux, macOS, & BSD. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into POSIX calls on-the-fly, eliminating the performance and memory penalties of other methods and allowing you to cleanly integrate Windows applications into your desktop.

I think Java is accidentally on that list, because it's had excellent concurrency stories since it came out, got complicated when they removed "green threads", thereby pushing thread pool management into the programmer's set of responsibilities, but is reworking its former ergonomics with its project loom.

for the rest of the listed languages, definitely agree.

It would seem that way, but some human skills are widely regarded as "unexplainable".

One example would be chicken sexing - determining the gender of a young chick.

Check:

Another rich field of examples come from sport training. There even if you can explain a skill, the explanation is often not much use in learning it effectively.
I think it's a great idea regardless of practicality / implementation which I think is generally understood to be largely a matter of time, money and hardware. I feel like you write it up so the idea gets out there or you can pitch it to someone if the opportunity arises.

Oh and also I second the fast.ai suggestion, part 2 is 100% focused on implementing stable diffusion from scratch in the python standard library and it's amazing all around. The course is still actively coming out but the first few lessons are freely available already and the rest sounds like it will be made freely available soon.
> It's not that the algo is any worse than human recommendations, it's just that it's an average of all humans likes, which will never fit your exact personal unique preferences because they aren't you.

Isn't that the definition of "worse"? "Never able to be tailored to your unique preferences" when a human could take that feedback in a single sentence and adjust? It's like the old "everyone wants to remake Excel since they realize 80% of users only use 20% of it... without realizing it's always a different 20%" saw...

I believe that you certainly could figure out a smarter approach, with enough careful thought, domain knowledge, and effort but... I haven't used any services that do it. Surface level similarities seems to be all you get, and I constantly get recommendations that a human would've stopped giving me years ago.

Maybe the domain of expert-level statisticians and experts-at-musical-knowledge-of-many-genres just don't overlap that much? It's hard to imagine you could do it truly well without content-level processing, not just user histories and connection graphs.

Just because no streaming service could afford a human to be an expert on every single user doesn't mean that the cheaper, more scalable algorithm isn't worse.

Ah I am glad to see someone else talking about using public domain images!

Honestly it baffles me that in all this discussion, I rarely see people discussing how to do this with appropriately licensed images. There are some pretty large datasets out there of public images, and doing so might even help encourage more people to contribute to open datasets.

Also if the big ML companies HAD to use open images, they would be forced to figure out sample efficiency for these models. Which is good for the ML community! They would also be motivated to encourage the creation of larger openly licensed datasets, which would be great. I still think if we got twitter and other social media sites to add image license options, then people who want to contribute to open datasets could do so in an easy and socially contagious way. Maybe this would be a good project for mastodon contributors, since that is something we actually have control over. I'd be happy to license my photography with an open license!

It is really a wonderful idea to try to do this with open data. Maybe it won't work very well with current techniques, but that just becomes an engineering problem worth looking at (sample efficiency).

Awesome. I'm installing on Ubuntu 22.04 right now.

Ran into a few errors with the default instructions related to CUDA version mismatches with my nvidia driver. Now I'm trying without conda at all. Made a venv. I upgraded to the latest that Ubuntu provides and then downloaded and installed the appropriate CUDA from [1].

That got me farther. Then ran into the fact that the xformers binaries I had in my earlier attempts is now incompatible with my current drivers and CUDA, so rebuiding that one. I'm in the 30-minute compile, but did the `pip install ninja` as recommended by [2] and it's running on a few of my 32 threads now. Ope! Done in 5 mins. Test info from `python -m xformers.info` looks good.

Damn still hitting CUDA out of memory issues. I knew I should have bought a bigger GPU back in 2017. Everyone says I have to downgrade pytorch to 1.12.1 for this to not happen. But oh dang that was compiled with a different cuda, oh groan. Maybe I should get conda to work afterall.

`torch.cuda.OutOfMemoryError: CUDA out of memory. Tried to allocate 30.00 MiB (GPU 0; 5.93 GiB total capacity; 5.62 GiB already allocated; 15.44 MiB free; 5.67 GiB reserved in total by PyTorch) If reserved memory is >> allocated memory try setting max_split_size_mb to avoid fragmentation. See documentation for Memory Management and PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF`

Guess I better go read those docs... to be continued.

Unfortunately this is a really hard problem, and I’ve used projects with tree-sitter and it actually chokes up on invalid syntax lines.

The question that has never been answered is how SBF made money in the first place. The arbitrage story doesn’t check out. Making as much money as claimed with arbitrage requires massive scale.

At any rate, the author is absolutely correct that the ftx collapse was due to Sam and friends cashing out rather than a bank run. However, it’s becoming increasingly clear that the regulatory complex prefers the latter story as it protects the political actors complicit in receiving stolen funds.
Foundation is really good.

I agree they probably knew more medical information, but how much of it was correct…

EDIT: Another great way to see the errors of the past is to read wikipedia articles on American presidents and read how they died. Their final diagnoses and treatments are often vague and shocking (respectively) and often people are wondering if they would have survived if they hadn't been attended to by physicians of the time, which were probably the most well-renowned. For example, Zachary Taylor or George Washington.

> how did they manage to lose so much money?

What the article says about market making on FTX is true, but that doesn't bring in billions. The uninformed retail order flow for the crypto market is not large enough for that. It probably would've been a ~$10M/year business, or something on that order. Great, but who wants a few million? Can't even do political stuff with that. They wanted billions! And the only obvious way to get there is by making huge risky directional bets on shitcoins and other crypto ventures, which is what happened. Instead of building a sound (okay, still shady because you're front-running) business with Alameda, SBF decided to gamble away the money on VC-style bets trying to become a trillionaire.
They are dark in the sense of "through a glass, darkly" -they were not pits of despair, they moved from Roman(esque) architecture to a more detailed sense of ornamentation and painting, which was not understood or appreciated by later cultures.

All indications are that a startups success has to do a lot with pattern matching (does the founder look like Zuckerberg) and VCs don’t have a good track record of picking successes. They can lose money on nine out of 10 investments. They are well diversified. As an employee, you can waste years of your life at one of the other ten.

And coding and architecture has little to do with a startups success - and I say this as a “coder” for 25+ years and an “architect” who gets paid decent money at BigTech working with other companies helping them design their cloud architecture.
I know it's what they meant, because they were very precise about it, just not very accommodating to people unfamiliar with the terrain. This is the kind of intro I had in mind:

> "The standard architecture of a JIT compiler (like V8, Java HotSpot or LuaJIT) includes both a bytecode interpreter, and a system to recompile a function to native code at runtime. The interpreter is the slow path in a JIT compiler, and is also a general bottleneck in a purely-interpreted VM like CPython. Since we are writing a Lua interpreter and LuaJIT's is the state of the art, the baseline for performance here will be LuaJIT with its JIT turned off."

This means the same thing as the whole "28% faster than LuaJIT's interpreter" business, but nobody comes away from reading that thinking this is faster than LuaJIT as a whole.
You obviously wrote this whole story to brag about your success with women. I expect "I got laid" posts on Reddit, not on HN.
Perhaps we should all decrease our news consumption. I stopped years ago and it's been a boon to my mental health.
Likewise, if/when we find life, how would we recognize it? We have some understood rule sets for life here, yet we have life forms that don't 100% conform to any one of them.

There is no guarantee life on another planet will even have the same DNA structure we have, let alone adhere to the model we've come to agree on for Earthen life. We only have LUCA to understand our own life forms, and zero idea what became and begat LUCA (Last Universal Common Ancestor). The word "Common" is important there, because we know there was a lot of life before LUCA.

I took an Origins of Life course that really opened my eyes about how complicated things get when looking for life at different scales.
