I don't have any answer or opinion on whether the company "is open", I'm not sure how to operationalize that.

But what you can say is that some but not all of their released products are released with code under open source licenses. Eg:

https://github.com/openai/whisper/blob/main/LICENSE (an actual product, to transcribe audio, which it really does extremely well; and it's open source code; released last fall)

So that's one sense in which they produce "open" things today.

I would personally expect that all of their "openness", from the currently free trial (but not open source) cloud-hosted products, to the code released as open source licenses -- are part of a business strategy to get awareness of the technology and of them as a brand, and buy-in, and can/will be changed at any point if it makes business sense. As we increasingly see with so many companies that start out even all-in with open source. (Say, elasticsearch). I think we should assume almost any for-profit company producing open source is in this category.

I think their name is a marketting gimmick to make people assume they are some kind of academic non-profit.

I don't know if it's obvious what a Microsoft purchase might do to those plans/timelines. In some ways MS's deep pockets might mean that free and/or open source offerings can persist longer, extend the metaphorical runway. MS will definitely want to be known as the authority on AI, and making sure people keep seeing your stuff to be impressed by it, and making sure it gets used by enough people to stay "the standard" is how you do that.
Honestly start northeast and work your way down the mountains and then through the Midwest. It’s the “Big White Ghetto”.
Wasn’t this called “wild building” for more reasons than just lack of permits?
planet is an amalgam of rocks and minerals, heat is provided by the sun, water could have been of extraterrestrial origin, and then enters fungi using heat and humidity to develop mycelium, mycelium turns minerals into compost with enzymes, space dust introduces bacteria which evolves through thermal vents a/biogenesis, and voila, you have life. We do know that before vegetation, Earth had fungi structures made of half rock, half fungi flesh, and they probably evolved into actual trees. At the same time, lichen spread from underwater to the surface of the Earth. Fungi released CO2, creating an atmosphere for plants to develop. The rest is evolution.
The article is talking about public chargers.

I don't have an EV.. but my driving pattern would put me at 99% home charging. Basically I'd never need to use a public charger other than 4-5 road trips a year.
I agree that we don't need the full picture to take meaningful action.

I thought it was important to bring attention to the grey economy aspect, because so much of NYC would literally not function at all without it, and its existence and scale does have a meaningful impact on how you interpret this report (i.e. that the report is directionally correct, but its unbelievable magnitude is evidence that we can't reduce something as complex as poverty to a single number, especially when that number is essentially employee and employer-reported income).
How are you breaking this problem down? I'd suggest stubbing out the endpoints as a skeleton with their respective HTTP verbs so the API contract is what you start with.

Then pick an easy endpoint and start to implement the code. Follow this through for the rest and add tests as you go. You'll probably want to adjust some of the app structure and maybe do small refractors to help keep things organized when you get there.
I imagine OP would perhaps be able to charge a subscription for more customised branding (for businesses) at some point. Maybe even referral payments from the payment gateways for new sign ups?
If the problem is not that you can't live, but that you can't live officially, I would say that is still a problem.
I have a guess, just based on some observations. I believe Google is significantly ahead, but has no internal pressure to disrupt their own search product. I think this state of things was fairly clear since around 2015 when key SV VC folks started getting interested in creating their own AI play which became OpenAI. The “open” part of the name was always a reaction against Google which invented these wonders, then stuffed them in a safe deposit box. Microsoft is of course interested because ChatGTP already seems dangerously close to disrupting Google search. And there are whispers that GTP-4 will be another big step forward, maybe even big enough for the eventual ChatGTP-4 to be a clear winner for everyday users vs. search. The compute cost is an issue, but a temporary one since GPU power is still scaling nicely and there’s continued progress on getting model inference to use smaller compute budgets.

If anyone was actually awake at the wheel at Google they should be afraid.
I played a ton of ASL when I was a kid. And I loved Microsoft Close Combat. To me, they haven't been replaced by anything remotely similar.

I just had a look at Combat Mission and it's not the same. I don't want crappy polygons in the shape of tanks and people. I want an overhead map, with maybe hexes, but some kind of overhead map. From what I can tell Combat Mission looks nothing like the glory of hexagonal combat I had with Avalon Hill games as a kid.

I could play via Vassal or some other game engine, but the nice part about having it in a video game is I don't have to know all the rules. And I can play against AIs. Even if the AIs are crappy they let you practice.

So personally I would love a video game version of ASL. I still have fond memories of Close Combat and would love a game like that again.
It's a racial slur where I live.
I made a small example at https://gist.github.com/rjosephwright/f1485cddcc12dd651ec965.... There is no YAML, I use HCL for values as they are easier to validate and less error prone, then convert them with yamlencode().
Yeah that message is not exactly subtle in T2. Though again at the cost of "that's not what happened". John Connor doesn't grow up to become the Great Skynet Negotiator.

I'm not saying every single aspect of T2 is worse than T1. But the little philosophy that T2 adds is vastly overshadowed by what it contradicts from T1, and partly itself.
That's a good point that leads to another claim, and I don't think those are exceptions at all; Nintendo and its products is quintessentially Japanese if we didn't focus on the payload content bundled in their software. CEO always in suits and shows fatherly smiles at most, the OS not allowing browsers or sideloading, the corporate having zero hesitation suing modifications on first sight, etc. They are completely in line with the rest if not leading the puck.

And I have an explanation: Japanese education imprints and emphasizes for the whole duration of it that work is strictly for community goals, education is for learning officework punctuality and not for skills, and fun at work is nothing but slacking[0]. Some attribute those to agricultural tribalism; I don't know, but I think these imprinting statements fits behaviors describe in GP and of Nintendo(et al.).

"Move fast and break things" would be just display of laziness, ease of use would be just enablement for saboteurs, iterative design would be just poor planning, under this thinking. UI improvements based on subjective individual opinions would be considered an attitude incompatible with the concept of work, especially for business applications. No wonder that GP runs circles around others when the impediment is in individual successes that products offer users, which the whole culture is united to always look firmly away in all professional settings.

This become less apparent in games and gambling because business goals just happen to align with joy and ease of users, hence Nintendo seems unaffected from consumer standpoint.

0: Such words as "comfort", "efficient", "precise" are used as euphemisms and self deceptions when pursuit of fun or ease cannot be avoided
Because we now have better things, leveraging the power of modern computers? Mius Front, Armored Brigade, Command Ops, Flashpoint Campaigns, Close Combat, ...
It's not a traditional FPGA chip (lots of luts and flip flops). The "AI Engine" is basically hardened chiplets that are working alongside soft logic chiplets and I/O. This is how they're able to get their performance/power numbers
One way out of this, outside of outright refusing to comply, is to say that you're a privacy oriented person and limit your presence in social media.

Last time I created a social media account for work was when I was a junior dev and my employer wanted to inflate their apparent size on LinkedIn.
Yes but MS doesn't have a phone or and phone operating system. They could do deals with Apple like Google does to make it the primary search and or have Apple ask the user which engine they like to use on set up.

There's a video on YouTube with a UK reporter having a 20 minute conversation with ChatGPT ..I wanted to use that but I guess it's a private app created by Open AI.

New York is about 11k undeclared on average per taxpayer.

Now living wage rates: https://livingwage.mit.edu/counties/36061

Living wage for an adult with 0 children is $25.42 per hour and minimum wage is $15. So let's say that difference is $10.

$11k is 1100 hours which is 137.5 eight hour days just do bring you up to a living wage.

Note that this excludes any dependents. Factor in a non-working spouse or kids and the discrepancy is worse.
I think you may be confusing CS with Software Engineering. CS is a math heavy field that talks about computing machines, architecture, Operating system, among tons of other things. At Masters level, a degree of programming is almost always a pre-req unless the University is a diploma mill.
I don't think DM was open in any meaningful way other than publishing research.

It took a long time until their source code became public, and replication of certain papers is problematic to say the least.

Similar issues exist with some G.Brain papers not releasing code publicly years after acceptance.

But all of these are anecdata from a random person on HN so take with a grain of salt.
> A parent would stop working to remove that cost, which would also potentially reduce housing and food costs by way of a dedicated house cook and maintenance person.

What? I know of no homeowner in the US, even earning multiple hundred thousands per year, with a dedicated maintenance person or a house cook. Even working two jobs, most couples can manage to cook meals and take care of the house.
I second that. Without taking notes/diagramming no mere mortal can handle nested 9 levels just in the brain. And somehow I doubt that the OP colleagues are doing just that either. The diff between people being stuck and progressing is often how much and how smart they writings things down.

My suggestion would be to try to tackle the low hanging fruits first: find the parts of the lowest complexity, try to understand these and get the simplest things done first. This will also restore your confidence.

To be clear, this is the thread we're in:

> > I think everyone was completely caught off-guard by the ferocity and pace of the crypto drawdown.

> If you were caught off-guard then you've been sitting in a massive bubble.

OP is saying people were caught off-guard by the specifics of the crash. That doesn't require being in a bubble, because there weren't any specific correct predictions that were distinguishable from the specific incorrect predictions.

Non-specific predictions may be useful, but they don't prevent you from being surprised by the specifics.
Likely OpenAI wants to retain control of their company. If they keep 51%, they have a majority stake.
> A well-factored service will generally have a tight set of responsibilities which make sense together, and this makes a descriptive name very appealing. Your service which started with a nice, tidy set of responsibilities may start to shift over time. And then you're faced with a choice: keep the old descriptive-but-now-wrong name, or put in all the effort to change it.

I had this happen recently. We wrote an application with two major components: one that processes events and repackages them as generic events and a component that receives those events and schedules work. We work in a compliance heavy environment so the architecture often reflects a separation of concerns given the information being processed.

The scheduler became pretty popular for people to plug into, even if they didn't use our other component. The scheduler eventually left the nest of our small, purpose-built program and became general infrastructure. It's now the "SecureScheduler", though on our component diagrams it simply goes by "scheduler".

My lesson learned was that if you properly separate an application out, the component names can become independent software in the service registry over time if they need to. The scheduler is pretty strictly scoped, so it'll never start doing new zaney things. It simply schedules work in a controlled environment.

These arguments over cute and functional names, I think, are a byproduct of a couple failures:

- Properly naming and confining components role within a single service. Our scheduler was generic enough to operate on its own, but it's role within our architecture was pretty confined. It's main optimization compared to other software like it was the inbound communication and authentication flows that made it easy to securely plug into.

- Lack of organization and vision at the service registry level. The scheduler didn't need a vastly different name, because it's purpose didn't really change. It did one thing and it did that one thing exceedingly well. There was a hole in the wider service registry that it could fill. As a result it was elevated to its own program in the service registry with its own deployment schedule.
obviously not every day, but I do it at least 3 times per year. the vertical space isn't necessarily needed because spatchcocking the turkey is a better method, but oven here are built up standard widths and heights. I have used all the space/racks in the oven before on many occasions.

I'm probably not the norm, but I'm actually seeking out a double oven for this very reason. I have to borrow the neighbor's oven during big feasts because we can't fit in.
Not sure you need AI for that.

This was called 'Wohnküche'(Kitchen to live in), and enabled by things like 'Kachelofen'(Masonry stove) in Germany, but died out about 100 years ago. Or at least anything built after WW2. The Russians with their colder climate pushed this to the extreme with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_stove where the thermal mass and ducts also heated the room instead of only being used for cooking.
I turned 40 this part March and for a while I felt the same way. "Oh gosh, I'm losing my neural plasticity at a rapid pace!" Nope! I was just having a mini crisis of self-perception based on an arbitrary number and once I got used to being 40 my mental acuity magically returned to me. I suspect the same will happen to you.
> How do you know that? Your next statement is that there's no good way to measure that income, how do you know how large that economy is?

Because by the books, 60% of the residents of the most populous and most expensive metro in the US are living there while earning on paper less than a living wage, yet somehow still manage to do so. Either one or more of the following must be true:

1. There is a large off-the-books economy.

2. The study in the article incorrectly determines what a "living wage" is.

3. The vast majority of the people living in New York City are in absolutely dire circumstances but somehow won't leave to literally any other city in the US where they would immediately earn more relative to the cost of living.

I think /both/ #1 and #2 are correct, and that #3 might be correct for some people, but most people in New York City /like/ living there, they feel connected to the city, and ingrained in its culture, which includes a very large amount of #1.

Desperate Times, Platform Shifts and New Narratives
Excellent summary. I have a lot of friends who grew up in rent controlled (in the 1940s law sense) units, and they'd probably be considered "below the living wage" according to these sorts of metrics.

Combine that with the massive informal economy, and it becomes very difficult to perform accurate econometrics on the city as a whole.
That's just plain old using the wrong tool for the wrong job. Although, I suppose that part of the rise of any new tool will be trying to figure out which for which jobs it is the right tool, and sometimes the failure cases might live longer than expected.
> I don’t understand how podiatrists isn’t at 100%?

Maybe residency accounts for some of it? Could also be a significant number of solo practices just getting started? (Gross numbers might be unintuitive or misleading for doctors renting or buying office space and trying to advertise.) Could also be anomalies in the survey, noise in the data and/or how they categorize jobs, perhaps some number of reported podiatrists are podiatry assistants who are in school? Could be some podiatrists choose to serve low income and/or uninsured folks? Maybe a weighted combination of all the above and some other factors?
Devil’s advocate (not for robots.txt idea specifically but for the general pushback against AI infringing on copyrights):
It’s generally accepted that it’s okay for a human to look at publicly available code, text, and images, and learn from it and then become inspired to form new code, text, and images (all for free) even with commercial intent. Is there a significant difference with AI doing the same thing?

How would you communicate such figures.

There are a total number of people who have died who wouldn't have otherwise.

It's not about "what is the delta" it's about imagining a literal city full of people who have died prematurely.

In terms of absolute numbers, "7%" is high, but not enough to really evoke any emotion in the reader.

How would you prefer to convey emotion to the fact that people's family members are no longer with us because of an economic policy which doesn't actually save the country money and has more in common with religion than economic science.
75% of profit until investment is recouped sounds like a pretty bad deal, though. Not sure it makes sense to hobble a startup's ability to reinvest in themselves at this early of a stage.
True, though I think the differences around shareability matter— a mapping-table entry is immutable, whereas even a non-logged-in session token is probably not.
>A concrete example: when people say that Walmart is subsidized by taxpayers, what they mean is that Walmart can employ hundreds of thousands at below-subsistence wages only because the taxpayers will provide for their employees so that they can afford basic necessities.

This is a completely ridiculous assertion because if Walmart didn't employ these people, then taxpayers then they would be required to be subsidized by the taxpayer even more. Focusing on wages is missing the point. The problem isn't that people aren't being paid enough because America has the richest residents in the world, excluding tax-haven countries. The problem that housing and healthcare costs are too high, both of which are controlled by policymakers that refuse to understand how incentives work. Even if you could magically squeeze higher wages from Walmart profits without destroying the economy, most of these wages would go towards these government-protected rent seekers. See housing in the Bay Area as the most obvious example of this.

It's also odd to single out Walmart, just because they happen to occupy a space that employs a lot of lower-income workers. 100% of Jane Street makes well above a living wage. That doesn't make Jane Street a more virtuous company than Walmart or any less responsible for people's welfare.
complexity can be closer to the top level IMO. I saw codebases where functions are called inside functions for no reason other than it grew organically. Of course, it is not enough information to know it, but it might as well be.
