With the DRUGWARS example... how is it working? Did it learn about the game by reading transcripts of its gameplay? Curiously, it cannot tell you how much money you have in your wallet, and I can't modify the prompt to make that work. It always responds with some version of:

C:\DRUGWARS.EXE

I'm sorry, but I do not have information on your current amount of money. In the game DRUGWARS.EXE, you are responsible for keeping track of your own finances. You can use the SELL and BUY commands to earn and spend money, but I do not have the ability to provide you with your current balance.

Having done both sides of the work, I totally understand the author’s perspective. Modelling and coding production are certainly two different skillsets, and many people will prefer one or the other, but not both. Now, there is one thing I guess the author doesn’t get (or he gets but doesn’t like) and a thing that most companies don’t get.

The former is that companies don’t care enough about what the individuals they hire prefer - especially not if it doesn’t address their need. They don’t need a beautifully crafted model that can’t be run - they want actionable results that hit the bottom line, and in the energy forecasting model that means generating new forecasts at every cycle (months, days, hours, minutes - whatever). A great model that can’t be put in production and run efficiently has about the same value as no model, and an average model in production will have much more impact.

The latter is that companies don’t usually understand that ML is not software development. Putting ML in production is, but finding the right model is research work, and code is mostly a discardable tool for research. Its goal is not to go live, it is to validate a hypothesis (in this case, that algorithm X, when presented with data Y, generates a model with enough predicting power to be useful to the business). This validation requires code to gather Y, clean/join/analyze/reshape/featurize it into a more informative and clean representation (clean from the algorithm’s perspective, not necessarily a human’s), run X, run inference with the generated model and run some test of the results against additional data.

If this test is negative, some or all the code written above is useless, and we go back to the drawing board. Given the very coupled nature of this process (a new data source has to be joined to the rest - coupling; a new data transformation changing a feature changes the data schema downstream - coupling; a new algorithm needs a different data input - coupling, and so it goes). If you have an experience like mine, you may actually be able to write in a way where you can reuse some of it, but I have 28 years of experience with data, there are simply not enough people in the market with that level of background or the interest in learning all this. Companies must accept that they will not always get this perfect candidate with all the skills they want, and start thinking of pairing the right people in teams.

Some who have been around for a while may remember the Venn diagram of the perfect Data Scientists - it usually was an intersection of business, math and programming skills (also often communication skills and a few others). My thoughts since I first saw this diagram were: “Even if there are people out there with all these skills, why would they want to work for others?”

This, more than anything else, is my guess at the core reason why so few companies are successful in putting ML in production.

Yeah he seems to not understand the importance of aerodynamics, as demonstrated by his complaint that you need extra power to run the AC because of the sloped windshield. The Tesla Semi will be consuming around 100 kW at cruising speed. Air resistance is the largest single contributor to that consumption. AC is likely to take something like 6 kW even at the highest setting. I'd bet that even in worst case heat the difference in AC consumption between vertical and sloped windshield (1 kW? less?) will be totally swamped by the improved aerodynamics. And then in the winter extra heat capture will be an advantage rather than a disadvantage.

There are some good points in here but there's clearly a strong bias.

The Wikipedia article cites his comment as inspired by a pedagogical text titled 'Fizz buzz: 101 spoken numeracy games for kids.'

If one uses software meant for backups, like restic, there are so many advantages. Independent snapshots, deduplication, compression, encryption, proper methods to verify the backup integrity and forgetting snapshots according to a more structured policy. Mount and read any backup by host or snapshot, multi-platform, single binary and one can even run its rest-server on the destination to allow for append-only backups. The importance of using the right tool for the job, for something as crucial as backup, cannot be understated.
Even when you love your kids, I don’t think caring for them can be described as relaxing.
The article admits at the bottom: "The study findings do not prove that volatile pay causes health symptoms, only that there is a correlation between them." Yet, in the body of the article, it says "pay volatility was less harmful to health", the wording of which implicitly asserts causation. Sigh.

The null hypothesis is "health problems, and difficulties associated with health problems, cause people to take jobs with more volatile pay". It is plausible that volatile pay causes stress which causes problems, but this doesn't provide any convincing evidence of it. In fact, this part is evidence against it: "Mindfulness [...] has been shown to buffer against stress in other aspects of work and life [...] but it did not help reduce the physical symptoms associated with volatile pay." (Of course, an individual's mindfulness could also influence what jobs they'll accept and keep.)

(Another mechanism comes to mind for the "performance bonuses" they mention. That could lead to some people staying up late to finish things, or otherwise deciding to stretch themselves physically for their job. But if you want to study that, you should ask about those behaviors specifically.)
Has public opinion on Gladwell changed? After reading a few of his books and seeing him speak, I have little recollection about what he said. Nothing sticks out as unusually insightful. He communicates effectively in a way that appeals to a mass audience, so I think there is some value to be gained from observing his methods.

Thanks, totally agree about sharing screenshots. I originally started building the site intending people to share text-only examples, but it gets complicated with the formatted responses that ChatGPT generates. And since everyone is sharing screenshots right now anyway, it made sense to just support that for this v1. I do want to add support for sharing text responses so screenshots aren't necessary in all cases. And maybe a Chrome extension could make the process easier, including working with formatted output. Thanks for sharing yours; it could be a good starting point for one build for LearnGPT.

Many of them may have not had a formal computer science education, or at least one that included a proper introduction to programming languages. At some point, like that 90% of students, some of them become curious about the media they use.

Compression is useful even with directly attached storage devices. Disk IO is still slower than compression throughput unless you are running very fast storage.

If your workload is IO-bound, then it is quite likely that compression will help. Most people, on their personal machines, would likely see IO performance “improve” with filesystem level compression.
That's also not true! Gladwell has written some pieces for The New Yorker that actually hold up pretty well. Go read his ketchup piece.

It's just not the case that Gladwell is only effective when he's teflon-coating vapid, big-sounding ideas to shoot into his readers brains.
First of all: I'm glad that more people are trying to tackle this problem!

That being said, I'm not sure if I would encourage this approach: this conflates modules (a property of the Python language) with dependencies (a thing that maps roughly to packages/distributions, which are a property of Python packaging). The two actually aren't that connected: there's no guaranteed 1-1 (or even 1-N) mapping between a dependency's package name and its importable modules, meaning that knowledge of a malicious package doesn't imply that you can derive how that package's module(s) get imported at runtime.

More perniciously: module names aren't static. It's pretty easy to construct a dynamic module object, or to rename (or alias) an existing module object to avoid this kind of detection.

Finally: walking a project's import tree isn't safe in the general case! Lots of packages have side effects when imported, and malicious dependencies definitely take advantage of that ability. Running this tool might find a malicious import by virtue of actually running malicious code, which isn't ideal.

If your goal is to detect malicious API patterns at runtime (which is effectively what you're doing when you walk the package import tree), I think runtime audit hooks[1] are probably a better fit. Those also aren't foolproof either, but they'll probably be more reliable (and don't require as much context awareness to determine maliciousness).

Depends on hat you consider "function". All Tesla vehicles are very aerodynamic. That means of course a bit less "practical" body shapes. Like lower headroom towards the back. So the question is, do you define functional as the most easy to use design, or the most efficient design? Efficiency does mean higher range, which is important for electrical vehicles.
This is more or less a meme on music gear forums, and in my view it's a bit overstated. It's no Fatar to be sure, but it's still in line with what I'd expect from a sub-$1k keyboard. The critical thing they got right is the velocity sensitivity: Especially on an FM synth, you need that expressive range, and the Opsix keys deliver there.

My general design process:

1. Design it myself. Get my ideas on paper before I'm biased.

2. Review designs. See how other people did it.

3. Talk to experts.

4. Integrate ideas and build it.

Most of my clever ideas turn out to be dumb at step #2 or #3, but a few pan out, and those have been important. In many cases, there is some kind of fusion too.

It seems someone missed steps 2-4 here.

There's a bunch of people doing some pretty amazing synth builds with the Raspberry Pi -- the Zynthian crew [0] springs to mind.

Basically bring your own USB midi keyboard / controller - these tend to be cheap, but also engender very strong opinions, so there's some distinct advantages to having them as separate components, but with the synth box being much more portable than a laptop or desktop.

As to the Korg Wavestate - on this side of the pond (AU) it has an RRP of A$1500, though street pricing is around A$1000.

While I largely agree with you, there are at least a subset of the complaints in the Twitter thread that are pretty inconsequential if the truck is only intended for < 500 mile routes (for example, the "no space for a bed" complaint).
ZFS snapshots are immutable, rendering them quite resilient to encryption attacks. This may alleviate some of your concern.
Hi Brittany,

You probably aren't getting any orders because your payment process won't complete. I tried it with the choker. I was hoping to give you your first order to prime your sales pump :) It is also not apparent whether your prices include shipping. This is important, as I do not see how you can make any profit at those prices if you do, and if you don't the shipping price needs to be calculated before the sale can be made. If "shipping not included in list price" is not made clear earlier in the process then you may later have people dropping out of the sale when they see the real price.

The other posters' points about discoverability and matching your target market are spot-on.

I made some money back in high school reselling wholesale jewelry, and one thing I would add is that one of the best ways to get the online sales to start moving is to also sell offline. In my case I would sell jewelry to kids at my high school which was nicer than dollar store junk but not as expensive as the real jewelry store down the street. Most of my customers were guys looking for a cheap way to impress their girlfriend. A good friend of mine sells jewelry both online and from a store, and he estimates that more than half of the online sales originate from a customer or referral from the physical store.

Making the first few sales are the hardest part of starting almost any business, so it should get easier. I don't think retail jewelry offers a great return on investment, but good luck in your endeavor.

In 1985, sure. But even then the 64C was the cost-reduced variant, the 128 was the "fancy" 8 bit and almost 2x as expensive.

But note that the 128's Z-80 CP/M processor was effectively a recapitulation of the Microsoft (yes, that Microsoft) Softcard product that they shipped in 1980 for the Apple II. The Softcard was a huge hit and an absolute revelation to the small handful of users[1] in its world. In point of fact it was the single most popular CP/M computer sold anywhere.

And yet it was afflicted by most of the same problems the 128 was. Everything is about timing. Commodore happened to be five (yikes) years late to market with the idea.

[1] This was just a tiny bit before my time. And in any case I grew up in an Atari 800 family and wouldn't have been caught dead with a II plus.
Most of the criticism assumes people will be in these cabs for 8 hours at a time. They won't. This is for very short trips. We are talking 80-100 mi each way. 2-3 hrs in each direction, max. It's not for independent truckers.
We can only assume they overlooked it. The opinion of someone who has actually driven a Tesla Semi through a weigh station would be infinitely more relevant than anything you, I or the OP have to say.

And like most things, it's going to be a series of trade-offs. Perhaps they decided that in a big picture analysis, the disadvantages are fewer than the advantages.
