300w PL1/PL2 limits compared to 253 on the 13900k. I know these chips are made for specific reasons - to win benchmark crowns - but both Intel and AMD are cranking power through the roof to get the smallest of marginal gains. Such a waste.

Amps are already over time — 1 amp is 1 coulomb (6e18 electrons) per second.
It didn't the last time a bird flu impacted the egg supply. Inflation will continue to be a factor, but I expect it will return to near-normal levels, at least.

Soft skills rely heavily on connecting with the people you're interfacing with in meaningful ways. For example: discerning what is being said be a speaker from what the speaker is actually trying to convey. Tone, subtle facial expressions, body language, or otherwise deeply human characteristics all contribute to every day basic interactions. I'm not sure drilling social interactions with an algorithm will provide much value here.
It is slower to the same backprop that we have used for decades now.

No comparisons to AdamW were made.

In fact, this algorithm uses backprop at its core, but propagating through 0 layers.
Nitpicking. And 400 A ? Per nanosecond or what ? Ampere are already coulomb per second.
First one dates back to 1805: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panharmonicon. I've seen small mechanical ensembles from the 1920s, which included multiple bowed string instruments (which sounded horrible, BTW). Apparently, it was the ‘Phonoliszt Violina’ made by Hupfeld. There is more than one video on YouTube.
I'm not sure it's hard, is there evidence? Personally I don't think there's any valuable benefit, certainly not worth all the resulting disruption, and wouldn't advocate for it for that reason.
Yea poster above you clearly hasn't driven by a chicken farm. God the smell goes for MILES. It's pretty bad. I'd rather do just about anything else.
> But somehow these days everyone knows that rare earth metals are "the devil".

Of course. Everyone knows that rare-earth metal extraction involves ugly, environmentally destructive strip mining, and the metals themselves are primarily used to build components for first-world toys and gadgets, such as electronics and batteries in mobile phones, computers, or electric cars.

In contrast, gold, silver, platinum and diamonds are extracted through perfectly ordinary environmentally destructive strip mining, and they have important applications such as jewelry, tax evasion and more jewelry, much of it critical to important industries such as the wedding industry.
https://arxiv.org/ has a ton of papers on it.
Being it's version 0.4 I'm willing to look past a lot of things being fully implemented yet. Especially in this case since Settings -> Style lets you configure the sizing of every component to your liking so we know text scaling isn't just forgotten about or restricted. Another example is text selection, looks like it's marked as experimental.

Polarfire FPGAs are not Xilinx! Which means you can't use things like https://f4pga.readthedocs.io ATM, or tools from Xilinx. Instead being chained to whichever proprietary stuff Microchip decides to deliver for dealing with the FPGA-part.

I've looked at the board, and don't see the appeal in price, for only mediocre CPU-parts, not enough RAM, altough good enough I/O-options. Makes no sense if you don't want to meddle with FPGAs, and just look for a fast SBC with Risc-V.

To me, at least.
TFHE-rs: The fastest open source Homomorphic Encryption library
Well, that explains the lack of a BOINC client for ML tasks at the moment.
"Opening a browser and going immediately to a search engine" is how most users use the Internet (proxy statistic; google.com is the most visited web page by a country mile, followed immediately by YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter). A browser that doesn't work with the most popular web pages is not a "browser" for practical purposes of most people.

... which is fine, but I suspect the headline is throwing readers here off because they're equating "browser" to "web browser" and then the actual tool flips their bozo bit when it can't even properly render popular sites in a degraded mode. Perhaps the tool can use better branding: "A general-protocol Internet document browser that can also do some HTML," for example?
Ignorant question - how usable / viewable / searchable can Mastodon content be to a random browser / google non-logged-in user?

Twitter makes it needlessly painful to scroll down these days, but historically while I never got a twitter account I could still check e.g. my public utility outage notices on Twitter if I had to. Facebook is harder or impossible these days to view any content without signing in. Where does mastodon lie?can content creators choose open policies?
Inflation went up and then fell back down. It did involve more fed intervention than had been predicted! But it did come down.

That seems to qualify as "transitory" inflation to me, as opposed to persistent inflation that doesn't abate.
The Logos Foundation in Belgium has been in the robot musician game for a long minute: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logos_Foundation

Godfried-Willem Raes is a fascinating guy and builds the robots. I asked him once about how he coded his firmware and he insisted that nothing but a very specific flavor of Power Basic was appropriate.

I can't remember the exact tech he uses, but a lot of the performances of the orchestra involve human dancing and movement that is translated into musical phrases for the robots. The sensors have excellent latency, but don't work so well with clothes on. As any engineer would conclude, the true problem was in wearing pants and so the performances are mostly in the nude.
Your team lacks a consistent and inspiring vision.

That's it.

When smart people have a challenging goal to reach for, they reach for it together.

When they don't, they turn inward and muddle around in complexity for the sake of the challenge.
There's a good reason why not every medium post is available on the Fediverse: some articles are paid, or Medium wants you to pay for a subscription to continue reading.

If Medium publishes everything to the Fediverse, nobody will pay for Medium anymore.

Free articles (marked as such by the authors) should still be postable, though.

That said, I don't know if the average Mastodon user or app expects blog posts with 10k words and embedded media. I would expect such rich content, but the "using Mastodon as a Twitter alternative" may not. In the end, it's up to Medium to guess what their user base expects from them.
It would require a problem that reasonably fits the solution.

You for example get a keyboards and a set of hands with each node, a webcam, a microphone.

I have no real idea but it seems the hand of cards isn't hopeless.

I was going to write what you just wrote, so I agree.

However, I also think to some extent the US is changing, it's just happening very slowly.

I think a lot of commerce and travel is part of it. If you buy something designed and produced overseas, and you have to get parts for it, it will be in metric. Lots of imports are in metric, if you travel you deal with metric, and so forth and so on. I've been to US hospitals that only keep charts and communicate in metric as a matter of policy, etc.

The only remaining things in the US that are hard for me to intuitively deal with are speed when driving and temperature, and temperature I'm starting to kind of fuzzily intuit.
>One cosmic-ray bit-flip per 256MB per month. Significantly more for computers on aircrafts at higher altitudes.

Yes thats why you have max altitude for normal servers/hardware and it's also more disastrous on modern HW -> smaller transistors.
Swift is great. I’ve done a lot of it, but also bounced around between Typescript, Elixir and Java and every time I miss Swift’s strongly opinionated, highly descriptive and flexible style.

Also, for the most part, it’s vastly superior to Obj C. The sad thing is that when writing Obj C I often find myself not writing the clean, well structured solution that’s in my head out of sheer resistance to the verbosity that it would take. I always just keep thinking how simple it would be in Swift and how much longer and more keystrokes / files it takes in Objective C.
What's wrong with many tabs? The DB handles getting hit by many tabs correctly -- it's just as if many processes were hitting the db in a non-browser environment.

Around the Mediterranean, plenty. However those polities collapsed during the Bronze Age Collapse.

Less so in more northern climes where the weather is harsher and where we don't have much in the way of records, though we do have evidence of highly-developed cultures such as evidenced by structures such as Newgrange in Ireland, and evidence of trade corridors from Britain and Ireland down though the straits of Gibraltar to those Mediterranean kingdoms.

No, with direct rendering the display server uses the same API as any other process that uses the GPU. The way to fix stuttering is to fix scheduling in the kernel. XGetImage is comparing apples to oranges. That doesn't use the GPU at all, that does a copy into main memory. Pipewire is complicated because it has to handle format negotiation and conversion and audio support and a lot of other things that make sense for generically transferring video between processes but are outside the scope of the display server.

Can you please knock off the conspiracy theories and flames? What are you hoping to accomplish by hurting people like this on the internet?
Reaction time is the time for the vehicle to come to a stop

You seem to have your terminology confused. Reaction time doesn’t even necessarily have anything to do with driving. I suggest a quick web search next time before assigning people remedial physics.
That gain is often lost by people doing unoptimized queries all over the place, though, instead of a single place where the queries are optimized. And passing the fat django objects around often lead to accidental n+1 queries, since you can't really trust that looking up a property on your object doesn't do a new query. Often nicer to avoid it all, by having a gated access to the DB.

While I propose most often sending in a list of related IDs (premature optimization and all that), the function could just accept any iterable, and you from the outside could send in the lazy relatedmodel query.
This used to be true for English as well.
If your app cannot handle concurrency while your back-end i/o is via a machine-local singleton, that sounds like a a problem which will come up for more than just multiple tabs. If architecting around this known-fact is a challenge, an engineer may have bigger problems.
IMO the better comparison is selling a 9” black and white TV with only an OTA antenna as input as a TV in 2023: technically correct, wildly out of whack with customer expectations.
About

Sometimes an application will start out with a need for just a configuration
format, but over time you end up with many many similar stanzas, and you
would like to share parts between them, and abstract some repetition away.
This tends to happen in for example Kubernetes and GitHub Actions. When the
configuration language does not support abstraction, people often reach for
templating, which is a bad idea for the reasons explained earlier.
Proper programming languages, possibly domain-specific ones, are a better
fit. Some of my favorites are Nix and Python

Templating is fine with YAML if you don't do it with strings but with a system that turns one YAML document into another YAML document, that is, do your substitutions in the YAML universe.

The "code up your configuration in your favorite programming language" can really work but it frequently becomes a point of frustration itself. As much as I want to like YAML it has a number of intrinsic problems like the Norway problem... But I do think people are confusing the accidental and essential complexity and because of that they flinch and reach for non-solutions to the problems of configuration rather than really thinking it through.
Get `udb` - the reversible/time-traveling debugger from Undo. I don't own any stock - I love their product. You can run your code within it, hit an error, set a watch-point, reverse-continue to where the watch-point memory was changed and then check the stack. udb will turn brain-melting, blood-freezing memory bugs into trivial problems that you can solve in a few minutes.
What's weak about the evidence?
>AWS could sell ML compute at-cost and still turn a profit

How? Definitionally, they wouldn't be turning a profit.
yes is heavyweight, SQLite for example isn't , but is kind the point you want database to use multiple formats, have acid compliance, json support, parallelism, easy debuggability, scalability, fault tolerance.
this are problems that you pay only little cost because 1 PostgreSQL database can scale to thousands or millions of users, and is more like a video editor you doesn't code directly in it, and data replication is difficult and expensive.

some people don't want have a server only for this and accept the drawbacks of not having a full database server, for example remoteok.
COP28: UAE names oil chief to head climate talks
Hmm so "testimony" is a bit firm, maybe it's referring to something I haven't seen yet but I read that as referring to the backdoor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DezodR9hNI

If it is the backdoor, then to be honest his own statements on it make him look more guilty of it than anything else. Here's a transcript from that interview:

Tiffany Fong: There was something about a backdoor that allowed you to execute commands that could alter the companies financial records without alerting others. That this was put in place, I think that was a Reuters article which made it seem like you secretly were moving money in the background.

SBF: Wait and this is something that I would be doing?

TF: It kind of said that SBF put like a secret backdoor so that secretly he was moving funds to Alameda and it was undetected and that this was something that you put into place potentially. I mean that's how it read

SBF: Well that's interesting because that's definitely not true I don't even know how to code, is the honest embarrassing answer. I certainly wasn't, like, building some backdoor into the system, I could barely use the system.

He then goes on to describe how he used the UI, but didn't work with the underlying system and dips into a "long and almost boring story" about a little oopsie where they were wrong about the size of Alameda's balances. At this point Tiffany seems to have been distracted enough to press him on the back door (presumably the Alameda "fuck up" confession seemed more interesting).

I dunno, I feel like if you're asked about using some sketchy-sounding functionality and using it to skim money, and you answer "Well I certainly didn't BUILD that!" then jingled your keys for a few minutes, it’s pretty clear you were involved somehow
Then use Cmd-H to hide it.

It's a different model to what you are used to and IMHO more flexible and powerful. If you try and keep operating in a manner learned on a different model you will inevitably be frustrated.
The question was "If it's not new or novel, why aren't people using it?". For example, take a look at this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.11786. It was published 3 years ago, it also does parallel layer-wise optimization, it even talks about being inspired by biology, though the objective function is different from Hinton's. Why aren't people using it? Because it performs worse. It is that simple. Is it an interesting area to explore? Probably. There are millions of interesting areas to explore. It doesn't mean it is worth using, at least yet.
Just write the laws so that they override a contract, pretty simple.

Services should be factored along scaling dimensions, not domain or team size. Ideally scaling and domain dimensions will be coupled to some extent, but that is not always the case. The popular idea that needs to die is that services are somehow tied to team size.
They do have a master's degree according to the post.

Wow. An enormous cost indeed. I think you made the right choice, at least for now.

When climate becomes enough of a problem that governments start taxing fossil fuel instead of subsidizing it, the story may be different. But for now I would have made the same choice.
Not for the time you're on vacation. Explicitly, no one expects you to "make up" for that time, and you might even get a few days or so (depending on your vacation length) to ease back in.
Haven’t watched it, but the description reminds me of what happened to Natalie Wood (famous 60s and 70s Hollywood actor). Christopher Walken on was on the boat with her. He knows the truth.
You're really agreeing with everyone here. The "monopoly on violence" we're discussing comes in the context of a theoretical social contract[1], discussed by various philosophers. The social contract is a philosophical framework for deciding whether a government is legitimate or not. Under the contract, the government gets a monopoly on violence, and citizens get protection and support from the government. No one is suggesting that it's impossible to behead the king, just that this is not in the terms of the contract.

[1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_contract

To refuse the social contract is to accept natural law (law without an organized government with a monopoly on violence). If too many people decide the social contract is not in their favor, they will do this by noncooperation or overthrowing the government. Under natural law, people are not prevented from building shelter, freely gathering food, etc. This is why people believe it is unjust and illegitimate to hold property rights above basic needs. Property (or at least more property than you can personally protect) is essentially a construction of the government, and freedom to gather and grow food is included in natural law. People who are deprived of important natural freedoms are likely to refuse the contract.
Is there stats on what the population/percentage representation of folks in these 3 categories are?
I see a fair amount of companies writing internal services in sinatra/hanami/etc and using Rails for user-facing routes. The smaller frameworks are great but as soon as you hook up an ORM, user session management, conditional view rendering for different clients, background jobs, caches and all the rest then you often end up with a worse Rails. If you have a service that you know upfront will need not need that then the simpler frameworks are a much better choice.
If the problem is that the code will be harder to understand, maybe require extensive documentation and generous commenting, all in simple ELI5 terms.
It sounds like fun, but would you choose to do that in a work setting?
Given Mastodon is an open source, federated platform built atop an open protocol, I'm not sure how that'd even be possible.

The $/capacity may be quite different. The capacity of burner systems is generally cheap, so you oversize them and if you need more heat, you just burn more fuel. The capacity of a heat pump is relatively expensive, so you size it up to something reasonable, and in an unusually cold day you may hit the limits of how much joules you can get out of it.

Also, the $/fuel is different - if one system gets three times more joules from the same fuel, it doesn't mean it's more efficient as the other system may be using four times cheaper fuel; so a 300%-efficient heat pump is more efficient than a resistive heater but may be less efficient than a furnace burning cheap fuel.
So? The federal reserve would have to have a very different mandate for it to make policy based off of a basket optimized for public health. I'm sorry that your personal food prices are higher. I just don't see why it matters at scale.
If the corrupted file is in the backup, it DID pass through like everything was fine. What's clear to me is that the FAA has no post deployment validation, hasn't tested its DR strategy, and that errors can go unseen for long periods of time.

My i9 desktop will start to spin the fans up with light web browsing.

To be precise, even at true zero load, an i9-10850k (what I've got) draws 25-30w. Any sort of load at all and it gets to 60+w. A gaming type load is well over 125w.
