>current Fanless cooling solution which tends to degrade after a few years.

What do you mean by that? I've had both PCs and laptops that were completely passively cooled and there was never any degradation.

Lots of different cooling solutions, the issue is there isn't a perfect one that works for all wattage while having no drawbacks. Either it's excessive noise, limited performance, large size, high price, complicated maintanance and so on.

The lofty claims they make are suspicious, I want to see this in action on a high performance chip without any other cooling.

For small scale circuits, I like Scherz's "Practical Electronics for Inventors". For a good high level overview of the grid, along with other civil engineering topics, Grady Hillhouse's "Engineering in Plain Sight" is good. Hillhouse's videos pop up on HN occasionally (e.g., https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34472122)
Evidence for the future? Nobody has any real evidence for the future. You don't even have evidence that AI won't get better.

I will say that my prediction is more likely given the immense progress of AI over the last decade. If AI continues improving at the same rate then I will be right. If it hits a plateau then parent will be right.

By virtue of my statements following the slope of a historically increasing trendline, my statements are more likely to be correct.

ChatGPT has almost no chance of disrupting Google's search in the short term, it's not even a search engine?

YouTube: There are many cooking channels that feature videos on how to make Hainanese chicken rice. Some popular ones include "Tasty," "Gordon Ramsay," and "Maangchi."

Yeah, I think people are just obsessed with talking about ChatGPT lately?

If I understood your posts right, it's the same misconception a few others have had in here:

In TDD, it's not write all tests, then red->green->refactor. It's write one test, red->green->refactor, then write one more test, red->green-refactor, repeat until done.

I don’t think it’s a big deal if your AI spits out copyrighted images. My scanner, camera phone, photoshop etc can also easily spit out copyrighted images. It’s ok if I just print them out for my wall at home, but if I try to sell them it becomes a problem.

So then I guess these new AI models are only problematic if someone tries to sell them (as its essentially selling copyrighted works) but an open source model is probably fair game. Individuals can use it, but if you try to monetize you better not be infringing.

Seems like something like YouTube’s content ID solution for detecting copyrighted works could be a “quick” fix here. You can sell access to your model but not to generate copyrighted works
> The logic is sound.

Solid reasoning there.

> Anybody who's worked in the Bay Area has known a number of untalented people who have joined FAANG. That's reality. Believe whatever you want.

"Statistically and logically sound" lol

Nothing to see here works. Can't you see the obvious?

Edit: I too believe that FAANG engineers are not special but that belief is not proof of that statement.
There are no answers other than go update your resume and find a new job. Managers find low performers, directors find low performers, vp's find low performers and they all get axed. Your just a name on a list unless someone protects you.

Google and others IMO are just following a trend that in the long run will hurt them in the long term for for future hires. They'll just have to buy companies to acquire talent like IBM has done. Sucks losing any job, but learn from it and find something better.
At the recommendation of some of those here, and with the help of a webcam to capture my Authenticator QR code, I successfully moved everything over to Aegis. I set up a strong password, stored in my password vault. Aegis lets you do biometric login.

Took a screenshot of Authenticator's export QR code via the webcam, then added it with Aegis. Then went to Aegis's Settings->Backup and exported a JSON backup, which is encrypted with the password.

That's a bit more peace of mind.
You might start with something like [1] which is a 63 "slide" | page introductory overview to a first year engineering (common core) electrical fundementals course (the linked version is from Oregon State niversity in the USofA but looks similar to courses elsewhere).

It's not the course handbook (there are many) and doesn't have any heavy math (aside from a few descriptive relationships) but it does a helicopter overview of the concepts that would be covered in a course that is fundemental to both electrical (grid | household | industrial) and electronic (circuits, sensors, computers) engineering.

If you skim through that you'll have an idea of what interests you and what to further ask about.

You have seen artists complaining really violently about DALL-E and mid-journey right? There's even a law suit. This is happening because they think it's a real threat.

With all the events in the news you'd be lying to yourself if the possibility of AI "getting gud" isn't even something that's on your mind.

> Or maybe, get this, how about people running AI only feed them information that they legally have the right to use? How is it a bad thing that somebody can't legally steal other peoples' work without their permission because of pesky copyright?

On one extreme:

"Unless you pay your annual Disney fee for having watched Disney films in early childhood, you will need to return your brain to us for processing. Disney was used as the basis for all concepts you know, and as such, Disney owns all subsequent intellectual output of your brain."

And on the other:

In the age of AI, copyright will cease to hold weight. We'll make more new content on a per-month basis than all of recorded human history. The old regime must be thrown away to accommodate the radically new world we're entering.

We'll land somewhere in-between, and I'm hoping it's much closer to (or even precisely) the latter.
The problem is there's no way a user will know whose copyright they are infringing when they ask AI to "paint a landscape."

Maybe the AI needs to be able to print out a list of sources to provide attribution. That would be interesting.

I really don’t understand this thread…many times on HN, you’ll hear things like Occam’s Razor (follow the simplest explanation), cite official sources, etc.

Here, we have an official report from the prosecutor stating that people attacked substations in furtherance of theft but a lot of people are trying to pin it as part of a larger conspiracy against the government.

Like we should tell conspiracy theorists, the burden is on you to cite the evidence confirming your alleged conspiracy. In absence of that evidence, is it not better to go with the word of the DA, whose job is literally to investigate and gather facts about cases like this?

> "Asian" is more than half the world's population; the "model minority" thing is problematic in part because lots of Asian families have poor socioeconomic outcomes in the US. But the cohort captured by the study overlaps pretty completely the cohort of children you're implying have unusually good outcomes.

Closer to the opposite is true. Well assimilated second and third generation Asians don’t do any better than similarly affluent white Americans. It’s the kids of poor Asians—children of Indian gas station owners or Chinese restaurant workers, etc.—that have unusual outcomes. Asian kids raised in the bottom 20% of the income distribution are 2.5x more likely to end up in the top 20% as comparably situated white kids: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/03/27/upshot/make-y....

It’s true that the “model minority” label is misleading as applied to Chinese or Indian people who come here under H1B to work at Google. The fact that those people do well is just filtering. But don’t forget that the American immigration system is one of chain migration. Those immigrants bring over family who often aren’t affluent. But the kids of those people also tend to do very well. And then there are the myriad groups who mostly didn’t come to America through systems like H1B that filter for educated, affluent people. The poverty rate among Vietnamese, who came here as refugees, in 1980 was higher than among black people. Today the median household income of US-born Vietnamese is significantly higher than for white Americans. The same is true for Filipinos.

Look around for an older edition of the ARRL Handbook (no need to spend a lot on a newer copy, based on what you're asking.)

Once you are more comfortable with the basics, the usual next recommendation is Horowitz & Hill's Art of Electronics. For that, you do want the newest edition. This ia an incredible book but it will be far too much to deal with at first, so I'd strongly suggest starting with the ARRL Handbook.
Yeah, I think this is the crux of the issue that people keep glossing over when claiming it's not a true reproduction.

Drawing Coca Cola's logo from memory by hand and slapping it on your product is still copyright infringement, even if it isn't an image Coca Cola has ever produced. In that sense it doesn't matter at all if it's AI or human - the production and subsequent distribution for profit of a copyrighted thing is not allowed, period.

The current set of AIs do exactly this all the time. That's a very clear legal problem.
100%.

Furthermore, if we adopt current copyright laws to AI rather than understand the entire world is changing, only the largest AI companies will be able to leverage the technology to train their models.

If it requires every film in existence to train a model, only Disney or Disney licensors will be able to operate. That's not good for competition. It might make it even harder to grow up as an independent creative or startup as it presents an impenetrable moat.

As I currently see it, weakening copyright is the only way to assure democratic access to this technology.

I looked into something similar. If the photo only needs to be somewhat recent I would recommend plane photography. My state does a yearly plane survey, so I used that. If you know anyone in geotech or environmental engineering, they can probably point you in the right direction.

China is Taiwan's largest trading partner. 42% of Taiwan exports go to China and Hong Kong. 22% of Taiwan imports are from China. Around 200,000 to 400,000 Taiwanese work in China. China doesn't need to militarily invade Taiwan. Like Hong Kong, it can just wait until the economic reality is that Taiwan is already a vassal state dependent on China. At that point, it can move military troops into Taiwan if needed. There won't be a fight, because at that point, the USA will already be far more darkly insular.

Why people are so frightened with Chat GPT it is just a tool?
No I haven't seen artists complaining much, and I actually have a few in my family. I think you're making this stuff up "complaining really violently".

AI won't "replace artists", artists might use AI to generate something and then tweak it and do something more creative with it. It's actually silly to suggest "art" or "artists" are replaceable.

In the digital space, it might be a thing, but until a robot starts painting actual oil paintings and carving wooden sculptures, at which point, someone will do a "collaboration" with a robot and then it will be art in it's own right.

But yeah no, I haven't really seen artists rioting on the news or anything.

I've seen people starting lawsuits about their work being stolen to train these things, which I think is justified because it's "megacorp" taking your work and making money off it without paying royalties, and boy oh boy you'd feel the same way if it was you.

When AI "git's gud", people will start using it to break other peoples software, then there will be a whole industry around this problem, AI proofing your software against AI hacking and on it all goes.

I appreciate that you note the capabilities of hackers in GTAO. Someone who doesn't play might just hear that there are a lot of them, but hackers in GTAO are essentially omnipotent and games are unplayable very regularly. The online world is essentially in sandbox mode for them.

Aimbots, a buzzkill, but I can play around it. Remotely spawning a cage on my player and lighting me on fire every time I spawn is unplayable. Teleporting everyone on the server to one location and blowing them up, over and over again, unplayable. Etc. You just have to quit. There are so many hackers that every server eventually succumbs to one.
> Copyright only governs publishing. So you have the right to train AI with any and all data you have access to, as far as copyright is concerned.

Sure, but you still just cannot output anything that looks like a derived or copied work.

So, maybe ... how about if image generation nets hold onto the training images so that it can compare the generated output against its training data to ensure that it is not too similar.

I saw a very interesting lecture on YouTube about what you'd see as you fall through an event horizon.

Basically you catch up to everything that has ever fallen into the black hole before you.

> The Computer has N bytes of memory. You want to declare a Boolean type variable. You tell your compiler this by coding it in the language of your choice. The compiler will typically allocate 1 to 8 bytes of memory to store that Boolean value -- depending on such things as how many bits your CPU is, what compiler options are, if variables should be byte or dword or qword aligned in memory, etc.

You're confusing several things here.

- a term is not its runtime representation

- a type is not the set of all terms that inhabit it (though you can get away with pretending it is in simple cases)

- and more generally, operational semantics are not denotational semantics

> So they are all-inclusive sets of some larger universe of values?

No, they're simply not sets. Types are primitive notions in type theories, the same way that sets are the primitive notions of set theory. No reduction of one to the other is necessary or, typically, desirable.

And even if you try to build type theory on set-theoretic foundations - which is 100% the wrong choice if you want to apply it to computational problems down the line - you're still going to run into problems once things start getting recursive. Consider, for example, the type of "hyperfunctions" given by

`type Hyper a b = Hyper b a -> b`

This is too big to be a set, for the usual self-containment reasons. But it's a perfectly legitimate Haskell type, modulo syntax. I've used it in real code.

> use a single solitary type that represents the larger universe of all possible values everywhere that a type is used?

That's what a dynamically typed programming language is.
This is the weird thing that's happening right now, and maybe it's not a good thing. Any pipelines that have been built from the daraframe onward (datavis libraries being the big ones) have been based on pandas (or rather its DataFrame API) as the de facto standard. Additionally, other libraries or wrappers have sought to replicate or be compatible with the pandas API.

But, the one universal complaint about pandas was always its API! Moving on from it, I'd say, is a substantial part of the motivation behind something like polars. So we're in some unpleasant "worse is better" territory here, and to me, it feels like python really missed the mark by too much. The pandas API is "fine", but really, we could do with better.

One option is to just treat the pandas DataFrame as the translation layer. If you need to dump tabular data from your library into a datavis library, then `plot(my_df.to_pandas())`.

Hopefully that conversion overhead never becomes too much of a headache. If pandas gets full Arrow compatibility (last I checked, they were behind R and tidyverse on this??), then it shouldn't really be an issue anymore and Wes Mckinney can hopefully stop getting complaints about the pandas API!.
This is an incredibly naive article; the author has no real meaningful appreciation of how relatively powerless copyright tends to be in reality when it comes to new technology. Google, Youtube, Facebook -- ANY big tech company whose bread and butter is "your work" all generally get a free pass here -- or more specifically, something like "the market" ends up being the primary driver of activity.
The (absent) packaging system is the single greatest reason I’ve moved away from python professionally. Life is too short to do without vendoring and/or lock files - especially in an interpreted language.
