Having just read A formalist manifesto and Technology, communism and the Brown Scare I can see some points where Yarvin and I start from similar observations and cultural baggage, yet wind up in different locations.

A formalist manifesto — (a) the danger of picking a single axis of merit is that you'll wind up deciding the ideal daily intake is 2000 calories worth of squeeze margarine (b) yes, Violence is a big problem in the Old Country, but should Yarvin move elsewhere, he may discover that many elsewheres simultaneously have as much or more democracy while suffering from much less violence.

Technology, communism and the Brown Scare — I agree that the Old Country is a workers' paradise, but as far as I'm concerned, that's a side effect of monomaniacal attention to income while ignoring that of which it is a first derivative, namely wealth. And since I'm willing to be contrarian on the former Union (despite having part of my Tradition descended via White Emigration), I find it surprising that Yarvin's figure of merit presumably classifies bolshies and Stalin as "good" communists, while mensheviks and Gorby would be classified as "bad".

> In the geniuses Lenin and Trotzky, the Bolshevik movement found its leadership. Lenin had no use for democracy as it was known in America. To him it was a sham, a front for the great capitalist trusts, which—even though the capitalists themselves might not know it—were doomed to get bigger on a shrinking market, until international capitalist war, bankruptcy, and working-class revolution was the result. Lenin was as sure that this would happen as he was that the sun would rise the next morning. The only dispute was the matter of timing; a few Bolshevik pessimists thought that the capitalist world might last into the 1920's.

I've gritted my teeth every time somebody on HN has referred to their computer as their "daily driver", but I will remain silent no more: You, sir, are the daily driver of your automobile, and NOT vice versa.

However, I'll allow that to connect any new auto you purchase to your computer, you might need to download new drivers.
I still struggle to see chatgpt’s value as a search engine. It works great for me as a partner in creativity, so to say. Both for writing and coding.

And it works for generating text that would be tedious to do manually.

But for searching information, I can’t bring myself to trust it.
The reason akomtu and I adressed the "mott" is that it was the claim ascribed to HBD:

> HBD (or "human biodiversity") is a euphemism for the view that there are genetic racial differences in intelligence.

and the "bailey" can be split into two parts: one follows from the mott, that races could be ranking according to intelligence. There's obviously no MaB fallacy here. The second part is the specific racial ranking you provided. But no one had mentioned that until you got here, so it's clear that there's no intentional MaB fallacy going on.

No one was trying to affirm any specific ranking of races by intelligence. That's a closely related, but very different kind of question (a very empirical type question).
It’s not difficult for a pressure vessel to withstand a hard vacuum, it’s difficult to achieve a very low vacuum. Lots of things offgas, lots of things are gas permeable enough to ruin your low vacuum, just getting equipment that can achieve a certain amount of vacuum is hard and expensive.

The question is: does maintaining this require a very high vacuum to replace/maintain the working fluid. Its one of those scaling problems where you have to spend ten times as much to get to the next ten times less gas in a vessel (or thereabouts) and an absolute complete vacuum is more or less impossible.
Language models are tested with hundreds of benchmarks including everything from bias to factuality and reasoning correctness. When they have a big deficiency it shows in the test scores.
This is something that bothers me a lot.

I live from the content I write. It's not fluff. Some of it comes from weeks-long email conversations with government officials. It takes a lot of research and help from experts I have long-standing relationships with.

If search engines serve that information but deny me the traffic, the website dies, as does the source of the information.

I can deal with lazy copywriters just rephrasing my work because the original still outranks them, and I have legal options to deal with them.

I can't do anything if Google - over 80% of of my traffic - decides to proxy my content and starve me of my income.

This is false, even more so for most Tesla models. Cars have a distributed E/E architecture where embedded software runs on several computers (called ECUs that range from anywhere between 10 and 100+). Most newer Tesla models are ahead of the curve and have a more centralized (zonal) E/E architecture with very few number of ECUs.

In summary, the infotainment system and the drivetrain definitely speak to each other and unless a secure architecture comes along, I would not discount the possibility of unintended interactions due to bugs. In fact, most famous car hacks start from the infotainment system and make their way into the drivetrain.

Soviets had quite a few different ALGOL 60 and 68 dialects, but I don't recall seeing anything resembling that name when digging through the history of it. It sounds more like an informal name of some dialect, or perhaps all the Eastern Bloc dialects collectively?

BTW the ability to translate the language had some other interesting consequences; apparently, they found that ALGOL 68 was sufficiently expressive to design what we would now refer to as DSLs, for applications varying from CNC to accounting. The end users of those languages would be even less likely to know English, of course.
Big deficiencies aren't monetizable by adversaries, tiny ones are (eg, impacting it's response to questions about one topic in particular).

In a very narrow niche there may not be many documents to pick from, either.

I don't think you can just automate this away in the context of generalized search. Search has to fulfill every niche; that seems like an indefensible position (strategically speaking, not in the moral sense). How can you benchmark bias in every niche? Your benchmarks show your reasoning is sound; what about the premises you're reasoning from? In the context of something narrowly scoped like a customer service bot, it makes sense to me how you could build expertise in constraining the model's output. But in terms of everything?

But I'll admit I don't have a crystal ball, happy to eat my words if they can operate with enough traffic and got long enough to attract the attention of spammers, and still keep them at bay. I think this space is stagnant and needs to be shaken up, and that chat interfaces have potential, so I'm not trying to be a hater. I just think this is gunnuh be a very difficult aspect.
Pick a domain where you can't trust Google either, like finding which physical store in your area sells the widget you want.

"The NCSA at the University of Illinois claimed that Andreessen and Bina had stolen Mosaic from the university and demanded the product’s name be changed. They were also told to quit distributing their product.

Andreessen decided that he would not quit offering the software, but he did agree to change the name to Netscape Communications Corporation. The University of Illinois was not completely satisfied until an agreement was reached on December 21, 1994. The University of Illinois received a financial settlement that cost Netscape around $3 million."

I apologize for the confusion caused by my previous response. You are correct that the star-shaped block will not fit into the square hole. That is because the edges of the star shape will obstruct the block from fitting into the square hole. The star-shaped block fits into the round hole.

Block-and-hole puzzles were developed in the early 20th century as children’s teaching time. They’re a common fixture in play rooms and doctors offices throughout the world. The star shape was invented in 1973.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can assist you with.

ChatGPT already works suficiently well in my own language (Danish). It can probably be improved, but so far it has worked well enough for several news stations to report on ChatGPT while prompting it in Danish. And schools are also worried about its ability to write essays in Danish, among other things.

Your comment reminds me of a comment made almost 2 decades ago by professor regarding wikipedia - it's just random people writing text, it'll never compete with encyclopedia, I will never trust it.

What if your searches are to be "creative"? For instance I was testing it on "warehouse optimization". I tried googling that to find ideas, getting lots of SEO spam articles and things not relevant. Then I have to modify the query to hone in on what I actually want. Then wade through articles until I finally find some cool ideas to check out if are applicable to us.

With chatGPT I wrote a few sentences about our warehouse and asked it how to optimize some part of our process. Then it spat out 5 suggestions that were quite tailored. The same as I found when googling, but instantly in the correct context without me having to skim loads of google results and try various queries to avoid spam.
Can vouch the same for Spanish.

Ten years studying personality theory, with an emphasis on the Enneagram and instinctual variants. I've paid at least cursory attention to a half dozen to a dozen or so other systems. And I made an original synthesis between the the instinctual variants and Guilford's structure of intellect.

Have you tried a query like this ?

Add documentation to this method :
[paste a method in any language]

For me the results have been impressive. It’s even more impressive if you are not English speaking because it explains what the code does but also translates your domain terms in your own language.

More than code generation I see a really concrete application in having autogenerated and up to date documentation of public methods. It could be generated directly in your code or only by your IDE to help you in absence of human written documentation.

Other interesting things it can does is basic code review by proposing a « better » code and explaining what and why it changed something.

It can also try to rewrite a given code in another language. I haven’t tried a lot of things due to the limitations in response size but for what I tested, it looks like it is able to convert the bulk of the work.

While I’m not really convinced by code generation itself (a la copilot) I truly think that GPT can be a really powerful tool for IDE editors if used cleverly, especially to add meaning to unclear, decade old codebases from which original contributors are long gone.

And knowing that what is hard is not writing but reading code, I see GPT to be a lot more useful here than helping writing 10 lines in a keystroke.
> I guarantee a 20 yo woman would have no problem flagging down help, heck people would stop to help without being asked.

Could this be because a 20 yo woman was would be seen as helpless? Women are generally viewed by society as less physically threatening. Additionally, the lizard brain of heterosexual males will bias them towards stopping for a damsel in distress, even when the chances of reproduction are minuscule. All these factors are pretty in opposition to feminism

> It seems that the amount of grinding men have to do is increasing, and the net rewards society bestows seem to be decreasing.

Disaffected young men are a tale as long as time; few revolutions would have been successful without them, and they make voluntary armies possible.

> Or maybe this is a win for feminism?

Feminism will win when the average driver reckons a 20 y.o. woman is equally likely to bludgeon them in cold blood with a tire iron as a 20 y.o. man.

I was initially quite enthusiastic about microservices as I saw Unix philosophy ingrained in it. Especially that each service would be lightweight and small. Instead, what I see is each service tending towards more complexity and code mass because people started adding more ideas to them like DDD. So, on top of the network and authentication code that now need to be added to each service, people started defining classes for each domain object, adding validation code and unit tests for them, layering each service like application, infrastructure, domain etc. Now we are building systems that are more complex both as individual services and aggregates. Much of that complexity does not serve any functional purpose and its utility is difficult to measure in other respects.

I'm glad that this post was written so that we can look at widely accepted ideas a little more critically.

I think it would be kind of weird if we could correlate race with intelligence, if only because race doesn’t really exist biologically. Black people as a whole have more genetic diversity within themselves than every other race.
It seems to me that you just have a more specific issue with HBD than
jasonhansel has.

jasonhansel takes issue with the idea that there are racial differences in intelligence

You take issue with another, related, one of HBD's ideas: a specific ranking of races by intelligence that it advances.

I was only supposing that the first claim seems likely to be true, so I'm not sure that there has been any substantive disagreement between us on those two matters.

I think you were half right? I mean, I think it's a case people wanted something for free instead of paying, rather than a quality issue. I've come across a lot of really poor wiki articles, and in general to this day prefer the old encyclopedias or even something like Encarta to Wiki. Add to that the recent 'scandals' if you call them that, eroding trust by some.

Still, it's awesome how Wiki evolves and moves so fast. And most of the articles are pretty great. My wish is that the foundation would spend money on academics and researchers to enhance contributions, rather than a lot of the junk they spend money on today.
