Where do I find a literal translation of the bible?

I would like one that does not force a meaning on words that are not known. I think have read enough fiction with made up words to be able to understand something anyway.

Also, maybe not based on Latin? Latin was not the original language anyway, and I got fed up with the mistranslations that we keep repeating as correct.

I gave up after searching and learning the history of the text, but maybe something exists, even if it is not recognized by this or that church?
Legalize polygyny for rich men who can financially support multiple wives.

Japan's population decline appears to be caused not by women giving birth to fewer children, but by an increase in the number of childless women. It appears that 1 in 3 women remain childless into their forties, compared to 1 in 20 in prior decades.

Women remain childless for several reasons, but my guess is they can't find a man who can support them financially and/or who they find themselves attracted to.

The great gas stove debate has been reignited
It does not bother me, it turns out that having an inconsistent measuring system is not actually that bad. and metric, it turns out has no more purity in it's base units than any other system.

Take the meter, the group setting up the metric system was searching hard for something that was close in size to a yard so they choose 1/10_000_000 the distance from the pole to the equator. nothing wrong with that, but it is not really better than any other arbitrary unit, and with the better defined ways to calculate it(now defined as 1/299792458 of a light second), just as random.

Or celsius, base it on 100 units between the freezing and boiling points of water, not a terrible thing to use, however with the later discovery of absolute zero, they needed a scale that used that, but did not try to redefine the measurement system to include absolute zero, so now you now have this really awkward 273.15... degree difference between the two scales, the nice scale that starts at zero has no other auspicious points to calibrate it at, and the scale with nice points does not start at zero. they could have made their new scale 100 degrees between zero and the freezing point of water, but that would have re jiggered every other derived unit, so understandable that they did not.

Personally I think an si system set up around base twelve would kick ass, what would make it even better would be to replace our base ten number system with a base twelve one, 10 is kind of a poor number in terms of fractions possible. 2 is fine but nobody wants to use 5, things just get awkward when you use 5. nether one is ever going to happen but it is fun to think about our assumptions when it comes to counting and measurement.
> Do you ask for permission when you train your mind on copyrighted books

yes, thats why I pay a fee to buy/borrow one (or someone pays the fee in the case of a library.)

> listen to music

> Humans are constantly ingesting gobs of "copyrighted" insights that they eventually remix into their own creations without necessarily reimbursing the original source(s) of their creativity.

yes, and so long as they are not derived works, its not a problem.

Copyright is there to allow you and me to develop things and make money from it. It is there to stop people stealing our work, which may have taken years to develop and sell it for a profit with none of the risk.

Large corperations have abused this to make monster profits.

Google have spent billions to try and persuade us that copyright is evil, because they didn't want to pay content producers to host their work (ie music and movies on youtube and local news site)

The issue is this, I might have made a website that tells users how to make a specific type of metal work. I have a free ebook, and I run courses. I have spent many years to to perfect the art, create the tutoring content, recording videos. its advertising supported, and people are asked to consider buying a course, to support the creator.

The AI company comes along and scrapes all the content, allows people to regurgitate it, with more or less accuracy.

The creator now gets less traffic, less money and now cant afford to create more content.

The AI people now skim all the money, and the consumer gets less useful information.

Culture isn't free. Someone is paying for it, and if you stop paying them, then it doesn't get created.
No I am suggesting that they clearly over hired over a long period of time. Surely they recalculated over that period of time...if not then that sums the incompetence up

Its a sadly continuing trend from the 60s - when Covent Garden was planned and 'moved' to 'New Covent Garden' and probably more significantly in Paris Les Halles was demolished and redeveloped (you can read about it in Zola's 'Le Ventre de Paris'), moving to Rungis and Villette.

Its hard to go against the grain of the scale, and dullness, of modern industrial food production. Especially when real estate development is at play at the same time also.

I hope the Dagenham markets will be as exciting and interesting a place to go, but fully expect them to be about as soulless as 'New Covent Garden'
How is this responsibility defined? How is this responsibility measured? What aspects of the ex-Prisma people does this responsibility cover? What measurable and practical effects does this responsibility have when measured in one week, one month, three months, one year from now? If these targets are not met, what are the consequences of that? What are the means of enforcing that responsibility?

I seriously think we need to start asking these sorts of questions and defining some sorts of standards for this "responsibility" this sentence mentions. In all other contexts, responsibility has its very tangible practical grounding and means of enforcing that grounding. In announcements like these, it reads just like a random and inconsequential "I'm sorry".

Approximately the same phenomenon is also known as the Gell-Mann amnesia effect. It comes up on HN a lot, but for those who haven't encountered it before:

> You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray's case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the "wet streets cause rain" stories. Paper's full of them.

> In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.

It's not at all uncommon in restructuring to be both (doing a lot of) hiring & firing - the current filled roles are out of whack with where you want to be, and not things you can transition people between because the skills/qualifications are different or whatever.

E.g. if Microsoft decided to sunset its incredible GitHub journey, it would probably find itself with too many web developers. If it got out of Xboxes, too many embedded. If it went full remote, too many office managers and IT.
>"The Co-Pilot suit is ostensibly being brought in the name of all open source programmers. Yes, that’s right, people crusading in the name of open source–a movement intended to promote freedom to use source code–are now claiming that a neural network, designed to save programmers the onus of re-inventing the wheel when they need code to perform programming tasks, is de facto unlawful."

Maybe people wouldn't be so angry about an AI trained on mostly open source code if said AI was open source, and not a proprietary SaaS.
The anthropomorphisation of the ML baffles me. This is not AI but a large ML model trained on often proprietary data. The whole discussion is ridiculous. There should be a lineage of model data so we should know what's the original source (at least for the "core" of the answer) in form of citations. I assume that the model loose that information during the training and that would be quite hard as everything is mixed together.

You’re talking about facsimile, which is a product of memorization, which is a type of learning. And it is not the only type of learning AI is capable of.

AI, like humans, is capable of both imitation and facsimile. It is far superior at both feats.

Your fallacy is that you are noticing AI is superior at facsimile and erroneously assuming it is “not learning”. You are also ignoring the other amazing learning feats of imitation in front of you.

Parrots are lovely animals, but it’s unclear what you think you’ve accomplished by bringing them up. The fact that they are capable of more than just memorization does not differentiate them from advanced AI models, which are rapidly gaining all sorts of abilities.

Polly the parrot would have a hard time producing a picture of Elmo with a light saber in a Superman costume riding a dragon on the moon in the style of Rembrandt (in under 300ms, at least). I also know a parrot couldn’t write a 500 word story about the image.
Interesting to also see that Billingsgate has also moved from Canary Wharf as well, also opening up a large amount of lucrative land adjacent to yet another Elizabeth Line station. I had to search for 'what', and it seems 'houses', which given the location will likely be multi-storey apartment blocks starting around 4-500k I would have thought.

For those non-UK readers, Smithfield is the meat market, Billingsgate is the fish market, both of which were in central London many decades ago. Billingsgate ('v2') has moved once already to Canary Wharf, the second part of London's financial district. The Elizabeth Line has been built, partly, to connect Canary Wharf, a privately owned estate in Tower Hamlets (a London borough), to the City of London (a London borough).

The City of London owns the current Billingsgate site (v2, if you will), adjacent to Canary Wharf estate. There's been a bit of competition, friction, jockeying, whatever, between Canary Wharf and the City of London over the years, so this the City of London getting a toe-hold in the area.

The Elizabeth Line looks like it's going to be a huge driver for future London development.

This reminds me of the 737 MAX. It was deliberately designed to have a flight profile very close to the original 737 so as not to require retraining pilots. That worked adequately, but not good enough.

(The MCAS system would have been different or even absent if pilot retraining was done anyway.)

Basically, they tried this approach but didn't recognise they crossed the threshold where letting go of old flight characteristics makes sense.

It hasn't been two minutes and I already have a downvote.

I understand many people do not "like" this kind of solution because it conflicts with modern people's sensibilities.

But consider what the future would look like if you don't increase the birth rate:

Already one third of the population is over 65. Japan has about 120 million people. When you normally hear this number you imagine a country full with lots of human resources, but the fact that a large portion of these people are retirees. This is already causing a alrge portion of young men to checkout of society because they see no economic prospect for themselves.

Can you imagine what the situation will be like when that portion reaches 50% percent? Perhaps in only a few decades. The trend will accelerate: even more people will checkout of the ecnonomy, making things worse for everyone.
Prisma, being the most popular ORM at the moment, gives you a lot of leverage and opportunities for vertical integration
Japan's median household PPP income is lower than the UK's, which is already too low.

The depreciating houses thing he complains about is actually great policy, unlike the UK - recently I saw one of those "weird Japan" articles about how someone built an accurate English house in Japan, but UK planning is so strict it probably cost less than doing one in England.

But for other reasons they're not that rich, not that productive, and it's not getting better.
> And a parrot is billions upon billions of times more capable than any current AI algos.

I am pretty sure that GPT-3 is a lot more capable than a parrot in transpiling a function written in Python to Golang, or writing a summary to a tech-magazine article.

Same as StableDiffusion is ALOT more capable than me in drawing, painting and generally making up pretty pictures.

Why are western media and people so infatuated with Japan? They admire it from far but as soon as they land in Japan, they criticize it. Japan works for Japan, it doesn’t need to try to pretend to be like another western country. That is what I took away from this article and the past musings of this writer.
The only reasons could make PRC take over Taiwan is: 1) Taiwan declare official independence; 2) US blocks China from semiconductors so bad, it has to take over Taiwan to gain access to technologies.

> With appropriate libraries, why not? The safety issues might be a problem, but you could sandbox it.

Ok, go ahead use air ducts as water pipes. Just "sandbox" it with some plastic wrap.
> would that creation constitute copyright infringement?

No, obviously not, as that would clearly be unworkable and ridiculous. Mainly because we have a very unclear understanding of human creativity, and there’s no way to analyse an individuals mind to understand how they created an idea. Additionally copyrights reach generally stops at the point of “transformation”, once you take any idea an transform it “enough” it’s considered a new idea.

The reason none of the above applies to AI is simply because we’ve declared that only humans can transform and produce new ideas. AI aren’t human, thus they’re not afforded the same rights. Arguing about if there’s an inherent difference between AI creations and human creations is pointless, the law doesn’t care, it has already declared that there’s a difference between AI and human.

If you disagree with declaration, then you need to lobby to change the law. But until the change occurs, your believes are meaningless in the eyes of the law.
Only if you released it. You could definitely perform it in the shower without owing anything. And the 99% of your compositions that didn't wholesale mirror any specific song would be perfectly fine to release.

Now, moving from holding the model creator culpable to the user would obviously be problematic as well, since they have no way of knowing whether the output is novel or a copy paste. Some sort of filter would seem to be the solution, it should disregard output that exactly or almost exactly matches any input.

I think something is wrong with the logic of your first paragraph.

Suppose (by way of analogy; this is not meant to be directly addressing AI) that in the next year some ingenious physicists finally get quantum gravity figured out, and that soon after the papers are published someone notices that the theory implies that one can use common household materials to make a device capable of destroying a planet.

(Seems unlikely, but I don't think anyone would have predicted that the last revolutionary theory of gravity we worked out would imply that one can use not-so-common materials to make a reasonably small device capable of destroying a city, but it turns out it does.)

It seems fairly likely that (1) the knowledge of how to do this could not be suppressed for ever, and that (2) if making the device turns out not to need all the fancy apparatus and hard-to-get materials that e.g. hydrogen bombs require, it wouldn't be that long before some idiot actually does it and destroys the earth.

And yet, these new discoveries would be "merely an aspect and consequence of the logical progression of that continuity", as you put it.

So, whatever the actual situation is with AI, I think it is demonstrably not the case that we can be confident AI won't somehow kill us all or destroy the world merely because AI is a thing we made and the world has had thousands of years to adapt to us.

Maybe everything will be fine, maybe not, but figuring out which will require looking in more detail rather than handwaving about how ecosystems always adapt.
It's usually stated in meters per second, a somewhat dry, cognitively inaccessible number. Try flipping it around though ..

3.336 microseconds per kilometer

People, software engineering types anyway, have a feel for what a microsecond is; a CPU can get a quite noticeable amount of work done in a microsecond - and it takes three and a third of those just to reach the coffee shop on the corner! Jump across a continent, and now you're talking latencies on par with early 1980s disk systems.

That being said, there's not too much you can do about the latency, 3E8 is the law, so we may as well fiddle with bandwidth.

It's the same definition that the entire software industry uses and has for like a decade now. At this point crying that "serverless ackshually has servers!" is the same as pointing out that "free education isn't actually free!" as if the people using the term are unaware of this.

"Serverless" means that the developer doesn't need to think about the servers, and can interact with higher level abstractions on top of the physical servers to deploy their services.
It's not only about hosting across multiple providers for the sake of diversifying that risk.

It's an unhealthy situation to be fully dependent on 1 single provider. It creates monopolies (instead of diversity and choice) which means less freedom, and/or more corruption and unhealthy conditions for all involved.
Never tried it myself, but a question comes to mind: Can you ask it to state how confident it is in the truth of its answer? Is it well-calibrated in that sense? If so, perhaps that'd make it more useful.

The traditional household arrangement is the man is at the office 24/7, the wife gets his paychecks and uses them to raise the children and occasionally go on vacations, and the man gets an allowance (but doesn't go on the vacations because he has to be at the office). Not much room for a harem there.
