Islam is generally considered an Abrahamic religion. There is a lot of continuity; the (very very) short version of the Islam perspective is "Abraham explained God's will to us, then Jesus was sent by God to explain God's will better, and then finally God sent Mohammed and he communicated God's will perfectly". Three time's the charm I guess? Many of the figures you know from the Bible make their appearance in the Quran as well, including Abraham of course (hence: Abrahamic religion).
This tired argument is very much like the "corporations are people" argument that convinces corporate lawyers and judges but literally no one else. Any lay person can tell a corporation is not a person, mostly because the power imbalance, the difference in their abilities and physical constraints, and while a lot of these arguments can be reasoned through the recognition of such is intuitive.

Most people looking at AI can tell it is not like a mind or an artist, because of certain intuitive arguments which boil down to their surprising ability and their bizarre faults (drawing hands is still a struggle for most models) and current limits (you have to hack prompts instead of asking naturally due to their current limits). You can reason about people using these arguments because they are people, but you cannot use it when applying it to NN because they are not.

I'd argue that the moment you start using the "people are AIs" argument, and you are then implying the converse is true "AIs are people," then you are assuming that there is some bidirectional here, and thus other qualities you assign to people, like, "people have rights" and "people deserve to be paid for their labor" and "people have rights to the work of their own hands" then must apply to AIs. And, therefore, the AI tools you are using deserve to be treated with the respect and dignity you had to treat artists and developers with before, and thus, should be paid for the work they create. That is, if they learned and created art in the same ways people create art. Just as we do not have that nursery does not own the art a child born there creates, or a university doesn't own the art an artist who studied there creates, you cannot make the argument that the work an AI creates is that of the "owner" or "trainer" of a model unless you are arguing slavery is in fact okay in this day and age. All of this of course hinges on the supposition that AIs are people, and that they learn as people do.

So, you cannot have it both ways. You cannot keep treating AIs as people in your arguments, but then deny them agency that is due to people. The only way this is is that you deep down do not believe they are people, or that you think people do not deserve rights or deserve compensation for the work of their own hands.
That sounds completely wrong? We don't consider hard drives or fans "solid state", even though they're not liquid or gas. The difference between what's considered "solid state" and what's not seems to mostly be in whether the component has major moving parts.
> thermals seem to be more or less a solved problem due to the characteristics of the Apple Silicon chips.

I am actually at a loss for words. So I'll ask a question instead.

Do you really believe what you just said or do you have no clue how CPUs work and passive cooling works?
The Koran literally begins by explaining how it is related to the other two religions that preceded it, and how it is also historically contiguous with them.
Are class components really considered out of date? I still prefer writing those compared to functional components. Vue is also moving in that direction with their composite API.

I think it’s why I like Svelte, it’s just JavaScript.
Something like an M2 MacBook Air, which currently has no active cooling, would be quite a beast with 8.5W more headroom.
Or better yet a "String FAQ" for maximally reduced context, similar to a "Newton FAQ". Just the addition of an extra word (Apple) would help, but presumably the Newton fans are still tied to the way the Apple marketing talked about Newton without any qualification words.

Have you ever had a seemingly brilliant idea to only later found out somebody else had it too and that actually analyzing the idea turns out it was a combination of existing ideas?

I would say, that a part of our human intelligence is not much more than doing exactly that, learning patterns in different languages. English, emotions, experiences are all interfaces between the world and the self (whatever that is).

When you learn to speak, at first you reproduce simple sounds, you add more sounds to this, more patterns. These patterns and "meta-patterns" are what intelligence is, in my opinion. The creepy part is just that they usually don't appear as patterns and pattern manipulation to us, but rather in a form that is useful to "us" in a way to interact with "the world". "The world", what that means to the individual is also just a useful representation that is accumulated in a similar manner. But what is this "self"? Does it exist at all? Is it the mere accumulating of meta-patterns? With a pair of eyes connected to it and some other useful appendages?
Interesting backstory about the lost metric influence.

All Correct.

Even when they are electrically powered, hydraulic and pneumatic servos are not usually liquid-state or gaseous-state electrical devices except for any vacuum tubes or electrolytic components.

When the electricity flows only through solid materials like copper, carbon, or silicon, and doesn't (intentionally) flow across things like liquids, air gaps, or evacuated spaces, that's solid-state.

Are those really considered active cooling? A pettier element just moves heat from one side of a plate to another, right? You still need to dissipate the heat on the hot side.
How does this work? When I run it on a machine with a GPU (pytorch, CUDA etc installed) I still see it downloading files for each prompt. Is the image being generated on the cloud somewhere or on my local machine? Why the downloads?
> Do you ask for permission when you train your mind on copyrighted books? Or observe paintings? Or listen to music?

The difference is that I buy books, pay for visiting museums and buy music in several formats, or pay it accepting to receive advertisement between songs.

It Is expected that If I buy a book I will be allowed to read it without asking for a permission.

What I don't do is copypasting paragraphs of other books to write a new book and claim that is mine. Is a different situation.
Copyright is a good thing. The issue with copyright is that it has been extended too long, from 20+20 years (the latter of which is a manual extension) to 95 years (for publication) and life+70/80/100 years for the author. -- I understand extending copyright to keep up with extended lifespans, but it should be something like 30+30 or 40+40.

The copyright terms means that for Life+70 countries only works where a) the author died before 1953 and where the works were published before 1928 are in the public domain.

An AI training on a given work should comply with the law and with copyrights, just like anyone else. It should also respect the license or other terms the works were released under. -- You could easily silo the data by license, and have a different model per license.

Patents should be a good thing (they allowed inventions to be published instead of being kept secret). However, it is easy for large companies to get patents on trivial things, write overly broad patents, and collate a large number of patents in a domain. That means trying to innovate or compete in a highly patented field like audio or video compression is difficult.
Well, hopefully "professional" means people are allowed to build products on it, like those you suggest.
It's not plagiarism at all. The AI is trained on 5 billion images yet it stores only 4gb of data. Thus it is impossible that it stores the actual work. For any image that the AI generates, you can't point to any image in the training data that the image is derived from.

> ... neither inventing their own algorithms nor implementing existing algorithms ...

Even if you just cobble together existing primitives from battle tested libraries, if you don't fully grasp their properties or interactions, you can still shoot yourself in the foot pretty heftily.

Particularly, encrypting data at rest is an entirely different beast on it's own.

Personally, I don't really like blindly praying that old "don't roll your own crypto" mantra for this exact reason. It means so much more than "don't implement crypto primitives from scratch" which people seem to often interpret it as, but is IMO really poorly/vaguely phrased to convey that.

Ask HN: Anyone tried starting up a bar?
Hey HN. Has anyone tried opening a bar/restaurant? How did it go? Does it balance with working in tech or did you get burnt out?

I've been wanting to run my own business for a while now, seperate to my job, and I've realised that I don't want to be working infront of screens around the clock (for work and business).

I really enjoy talking to people, and I live in an "up and coming" city that is currently building up some high rise apartments, but there's only two bars in the CBD, so I'm prodding at the idea of opening a 3rd bar and filling a potential gap.

How did it go for you? (Bartending stories also welcome)

Personal background: retail but not bartending. Used to frequent bars as a customer quite a lot. Will aim to get some bartending work in the meantime. Currently in software
This whole legal debate exists because of ambiguity. Open source licences were written before large-scale training became a thing.

Rather than settle this ambiguity on court, why not remove it altogether? Personally I think we should be adding new clauses to licences that either explicitly approve or prohibit the use of code for training of models.
Yeah and survivorship bias extends here too. I think we could actually do the math to derive the maximum probability for a nuclear apocalypse within a given timeframe from the fact that we’re not in the middle of it.
> Rather superficial article about the subject.

I liked the article because it gave a general idea on how hard it is to translate very old religious texts. I don't think it's trying to write a theological analysis, just giving a basic understanding of the subject.

For those who are more interested in the topic, they can do more research themselves, like checking out the book the economist is covering in the article.
The conventional wisdom is the opposite - study of this position has led to more draws and better performance by black.

It's not really borne out by the statistics here: White's advantage has slipped to 52-53% (can't see an overall figure for this but you can eyeball the centroid of the graph under "Past vs Future performances").

On the other hand the "draw death of chess" isn't really a thing at blitz games between 1800s. Perhaps 5% of games are drawn, compared to 80% of elite level classical games. So this is not a good data set to study this effect. It's still interesting for some of its other investigations, though, eg looking for whether some variations increase Whites advantage.

A lot of words to repeat Russian propaganda.

There was far more concerted Russification of Ukraine than Polish-ification...

The Ukrainian language is the Ukrainian language, what's spoken in the east is considered a Creole that's a combination of Russian and Ukrainian due to, well, centuries of Russification.

> «kraj» has descended from a Proto-Slavic of *krajь. It can mean «region», «country» or «land»,

Obviously. Every second place here is called "X Kraj". Literally the word used for region still.

> O-krajina" that you are citing can mean «fringe» or «edge» but not «borderland».

Okraj literally means border but it doesn't really matter, edge and border are literally the same thing in English. Dunno why you are insinuating it's different.

Language does evolve though, now there's different words (and more words) for edge, border, suburb, periphery, etc...

It's not clear that Kraj on it's own was "edge" or "border" though. Okraj definitely was however

> Moscow was founded in 1147

So I got one date wrong (I was thinking of Moscow's rise as an actual city state post-Mongol yoke, not the date they made a fort in a swamp especially since the first town was completely destroyed by the Mongols) but first mention of "Ukraine" is 1187. Long before the Russian Empire, before the Mongol invasions, long before Moscow was anything more than a small fort.
You can have debug symbols even in release builds. With gcc, `-ggdb` for debug symbols and `-O2` for optimization can be selected in dependently of each other. Optimized binaries are a bit harder to debug, but locating the source of this crash should be easy even in optimized versions.

As additional complication, debug symbols are often removed from the binary post-build to reduce binary size. The `strip` utility either discards debug symbols entirely, or it puts them in a separate folder as .dbgsym filses. See the gdb `debug-file-directory` option and the `add-symbol-file` command.
Their marketing is good and i hope the tech grows to pro laptops and desktops. But the marketing needs to be taught a bit of math.

In the 'how airjet works' video, they say a 50W processor is throttled to 10W and airjet brings it up to 20W so it's a 100% performance improvement for the processor.

#2 is pretty interesting. After all, the purpose of copyright law is to encourage creative works. If we have machines that can generate creative works on demand with little effort, what purpose does copyright law serve?
Second this. Happy to pay for 5km2 although i'd probably crop out 1km2. But I'd love to be able to understand what size i'd be able to print that 1km2 at using 300dpi. I guess art prints aren't exactly the core use case for this though.
Which selfhosted container registry are you using?
I am using the harbor container registry for several years now for hosting docker container images but also K8s Helm charts. But every time I need to update Harbor to a new version I whish to knew a good alternative which is easier to maintain and is secure by default.

What bothers me the most is the following:

1. the poorly implemented recommendation of the docker compose installs in contrast to the k8s variant. I need to run it with docker compose for now.

2. to manually search for new version numbers and then need to download GitHub release tarballs

3. to manually run database migrations scripts before starting new major harbor versions

4. to have it by default control the whole host you run it on: Host port 80 and 443 usage. Mounting root "/" by default in the harbor container during the migration process

Do you know a good alternative which is FOSS and can be selfhosted?
A certain site that has the words "The" "pirate", "bay" and org in its URL. It's where a friend of a friend that I know through a second cousin stumbled upon their frequently used copy of Office 2007 (and quite a few other things)...
Of course it is. But for some interesting reason the Economist does not write about that.
I like that there is an alternative to Pandas, but unfortunately it uses the same dataframes paradigm. I know I'm in the minority, but I never liked dataframes. They are too "R"-like, don't fit into Python, and try to do too many things at once.

Columns have names, except when they don't. Things (rows? individual cells?) have types which is sometimes enforced and sometimes not. If you don't follow a recipe exactly, your dataframe will be subtly different and might not work. A lot of code mixes mutation in place and creating new dataframes, and so on. And Pandas lends itself to a special chained method syntax which is almost it's own DSL in Python.
I searched the half familiar sentence, and now I can't get it out of my head (although, it will go, within the hour) again.

How is it much different from a search index? it’s just a new interface to get at some info, rather than Google and Firefox, it already pre-browsed the web for you, and is displaying back the content. If the end user gleans some actual copyrighted work from the search they still need permission to use it, but it’s also likely it’s just a derivative, or the end user is just reading an example and learning from it at consumption time. Is a web crawler violating copyright? Or is it the user who sells a copyrighted image?
Apple has privacy in its marketing, but honestly they are intrusive in every way.

Couldn't you have one main task which describes the overall task and then it has a list with checkboxes that has links to the other tasks it depends on?

When one subtask is done, you check it off.

"Ideally then, given all these tasks and their dependencies, what should I work on next?"

I doubt a system can automatically propose the ideal task to work on anyway. There will be many tasks equally important and which are blocking another main task. So you would anyway have to select something by hand.

And if you would be presented with only one task to do right now, it might not be a suitable task for other practical reasons which cannot be specified using dependencies, priorities, schedules etc.

If the system gets too advanced it gets in the way more than helps. Personally I think it's better to regularly and manually walk through the list and update priorities, texts, task states, dates etc as things progresses and changes. And then you get a good overview picture of your project in the back of your head.

That’s it. I’m getting a “not accelerating towards black holes” bumper sticker for my ship. I might die a sphagetti, but people will not think that I was foolish. That will clear up any ambiquity.
"This training data is available for free, but if you want to train your AI on it you need to pay" => Which means only Google, Microsoft, Meta and Disney will be able to train AIs.

I took up a similar style for most of my writing perhaps a year ago, with a strong preference for breaking at punctuation. (I even sometimes do it to a more limited extent in handwriting.) This has influenced my writing style, which naturally inclines to more complex structures, to favour shorter clauses—though certainly I still end up with plenty of non-punctuation-adjacent line breaks.

My greatest annoyance with the style (which honestly is the sole reason I didn’t take it up a few years earlier) is bad handling of em dashes, of which I am fond. In normal English typesetting, there is a line-breaking opportunity before and after the dash, but no space; but in all markup languages that I know of that support soft breaks, the line break is equivalent to a space. Well, actually this is no longer normative for HTML (see https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-3/#line-break-transform, which shows the problem for CJK, which doesn’t use spaces between words), but for now, all user agents still implement it as “line break → space”. Consequently, when writing in these markup languages, I can’t break the line after an em dash as I would like to, because it would change the output.

One of the features of the lightweight markup language I’ve been designing, then, is the ability to control soft break behaviour in order to correctly handle at least CJK and em dashes that were not otherwise paired with a space. (And I’m curious if anyone has similar cases not well-served by current rules.)

Should they be translated then? Leaving then unchanged would communicate the fact that the word has no direct translation. English has borrowed and invented lots of words which have no direct meaning, they just are a subtle way to express a concept - e.g. "grok"

Shouldn't be downloads per prompt. Processing happens on your machine. It does download models as needed. A network call per prompt would be a bug.
I had the same idea as well. I run home-assistant for my home, and the dumbness of Google Assistant is infuriating. You have to manually add keywords and phrases to make it understand anything. So I was experimenting with having ChatGPT generate JSON instructions based on a prompt similar to this (though the prompt in the blog is way better than mine).

The real power of these models are not the information that they can fuzzily regurgitate, but how they can be given instructions on how to manipulate unstructured data.
I really want to agree, but those are different tasks. Apple and Amazon attempt to focus on monetizable parts of NLP flows meaning optimization for narrow use cases (play music, order me a book, etc) and OpenAI can share an impressive chat bot, to just see how that plays out and generate extra PR.

Pretty sure Apple and Amazon are capable of improving their voice-assistants, the question is whether they decide to invest into it. OpenAI is relatively young and is "quicker" than large orgs, as it's a startup with top-notch talent.
Yep, I know that, but it doesn’t offer anything else than a claim to authenticity, by posing as a continuation, while the previous revelations are then discarded.

The mentions of Biblical persons and events, as I hinted in the previous comment, are cultural rather than theological, and can’t be used to establish theological continuity, no matter how hard the Ismaelite genealogy is pressed.
