May I suggest a new feature? I imagine there's no real hard reason why Data Validation won't take dynamic arrays. It would be amazing to use UNIQUE or even FILTER in the Custom format. I've tried all sorts of workarounds including defining named ranges, using INDIRECT, etc. but it seems like I inevitably need to create a range for Data Validation to work

Which in turn leads me to think there should be a way to create a virtual Range object in VBA that isn't really in a sheet (or a VirtualRange object that is similar enough to Range to make it work for most purposes). If one were to refactor Range entirely (not suggesting that), it seems like the issue is that the Range object actually encapsulates two different data representations into one jumbled up object: (1) cells in a worksheet with properties such as style, fill, value, etc. and (2) a traversable quasi-array data type with useful methods such as offset, rows, columns, etc. Those two things often line up, but not always.

Anyway, I probably spend too much time thinking about Excel :-) </rant>
ChatGPT is currently the 4th most read page on English Wikipedia right now, earlier I noticed it was 2nd. This is the first time I’ve noticed it on their ranking list.

Yeah. And a lot of businesses just don't need the high availability that a cluster of lesser boxen can provide. If they need to have a few hours of downtime each month to install patches on the one-and-only Big Ass Server, that's not necessarily a problem. Oh, and even an idiot can admin the thing. (Not a literal idiot, but it's about the simplest admin experience possible)

I honestly think a lot of businesses would honestly be better off with this kind of simplified "scale up" architecture.

The downsides are clear and it's not the right fit for everything, obviously. But I see the IT world defaulting to these complicated 95384-piece AWS instances "Because that's how Netflix does it" or whatever and it's like... you're not Netflix and hardly anybody is.
For the first month, I religiously counted/tracked everything and was regularly below that 8g target.

While I no longer methodically track the data, I remain fastidious with what I eat. For example, "Mush" brand oatmeal is very tasty imo, and it only contains 0.5-1.0g for the flavors that I eat. Like you, I've also added more plant-based foods to my diet. I'm a big fan of "Credo" brand queso, which has 0g due to using cashews as the dairy-substitute.
Agreed, Google's public incident reports could be improved with those numbers.

Some chapters in the book include "Being On-Call", "Effective Troubleshooting" & "Postmortem Culture: Learning from Failure".

Which signals to me, a normal work culture and time will improve stability in most companies.
The Twitter We Lost: Developer Platforms Are All About Trust (2022)
Totally agree, we were looking for a similar “some code” approach. Automatisch and other no-code automation products (Zapier, n8n, etc) are awesome for non-technical users to automate simple tasks. We started building Workflows (http://retool.com/workflows) because we were looking for something faster than writing cron jobs/spinning up more infra. Products like Zapier, often times weren’t customizable enough without the ability to really write code or secure enough to connect to something like our production databases. Would love any feedback!
Worst advise. If you are incapable (no offence) to set up your own email server, doesn't mean anyone else should avoid doing it.

Source: Having own email server for 17 years. Absolutely happy with it. Again, that doesn't mean everyone should do it, but I'd abstain from advices like you should not! or should do same.

Cargo has the benefit of being much later to the game, and has thoughtfully incorporated lessons from the past. It's easier to work with 'downstream', and seems like a good model for new languages/runtimes to start with for their own packaging ecosystems.

I imagine most people believe that legislation will step in in the case that it becomes too uncomfortable for them, as consumers.

It turns out that if you put a from in water and raise the termperature slowly, they jump out exactly when they can no longer maintain homeostasis. Not everything can be manipulated by making change slow enough. Sometimes there are bifurcations.
I just gave Protogen a spin and the diversity of outputs it gave me was abysmal. Every seed for the same (relatively open-ended) prompt used the same color scheme, had the same framing, and the same composition. Whereas with SD 1.5/2.1, the subject would be placed differently in-frame, color schemes were far more varied, and results were far more interesting compositionally. (This is with identical settings between the two models and a random seed)

So unless you want cliche-as-fuck fantasy and samey waifu material, classic SD seems to do a much better job.
As I specifically said censorship is wrong, and no one said communism justifies it, not sure what you're driving at.
I… don’t believe this. Reviews of the day were preoccupied with drooling over the graphics capabilities, given that it’s a mostly-objective thing to compare and were often the only visible thing that changed in an OS release. If you look at the embellishments that UI picked up they evolved in lockstep with the capabilities of the hardware. As soon as there was sufficient color depth for shadows, then shadows were added. Once that expanded to sufficient color depth for gradients, then gradients were added. Same with transparency. Once MS Windows got a GPU compositor in Vista we got “glass”.
> Rooftop solar outcompetes solar farms because energy from a solar farm pays taxes and distribution costs before it is delivered to a user. Whereas rooftop solar energy is untaxed when it powers your laptop.

If you completely neglect the installation part, sure. Utility-scale solar farms have massive efficiencies of scale on purchasing panels and on labor-related overhead.

It's not that clear cut, basically.

I think what the EV model allows is for private car owners to essentially sell a part of their car back in increments, if for some reason their driving behavior changes and they don't need to drive as much as they used to.
China doesn't really have any chip-making equipment supply-chain of their own; neither does Taiwan or South Korea. I think that 10 years to EUV timeline is a bit too ambitious considering that it required ASML about 20-30 years to develope and commercialize (with support of the industry, TSMC, Samsung, and Intel). Unless ASML is allowed to license their EUV to China and all 600+ suppliers who make high-precision lenses/machinaries, cutting-edge light-source, electrochemicals, etc, can export their supplies without any restriction, it's still a pipedream.

I believe posix pthreads calls that a barrier
That's exactly the problem: the learned "concept" is not general purpose at all. It's (from what we can tell) a bunch of special cases. While the AI may learn as special cases cavities inside carboard boxes and barrels and foxholes, let's say, it still has no general concept of a cavity, nor does it have a concept of "X is large enough to hide Y". This is what children learn (or maybe innately know), but which AIs apparently do not.

> profound burnout in 2019 after I lost my digestive health and got low serotonin due to a combination of work stress, overtraining at the gym, dehydration and a finger of booze after particularly hard days. Also food sensitivities to legumes, nightshades and almond butter, which I wasn't aware of at the time

Ashwagandha is a nightshade, so you likely weren't allergic to nightshades if it helps.

Also, I'm not sure how you concluded that you have "low serotonin" due to gut issues. Serotonin in the gut doesn't migrate to the central nervous system. It serves different purposes throughout the body, but the synthesis in your brain remains local to the brain.

There are a lot of unrealistically specific claims in your post about cortisol and serotonin, but it's impossible to make such specific diagnoses. You might be reading too much into the alternative medicine world that misuses surface-level knowledge about hormones and neurotransmitters to provide false comfort. Real medical diagnoses aren't so specifically centered on singular chemicals.
This is why I'm glad we have the 2nd amendment. It levels the playing field for individual citizens vs. the government.
I never realized that reverse image search was so bad because of regulations. Can you give me some more context about which regulations affect google reverse image search and why?
Up relative to what?
Pretty much any laptop would take hours to get anything significant done with GPT3 as the model would need to be batched in and out of memory from disk.

The amount of memory required to run these models is immense.

If you want a comparison, try running the largest version of the open source BLOOM model yourself.
Why wouldn’t it work for those systems?
Shameless plug - I’ve built an app specially for eBay alerts that I needed for different products.

I was using the terminology as OP did, and yes, it is not quite right. But the point as I understood it was that branch predictors optimize around specific "structured" usage patterns of opcodes - in this case, the particular way to use BL/RET to implement function calls typical of C - to the point where any other use is too slow to be practical for anything.
You missed the point. ChatGPT trained on a gazillion words to "learn" a language. Children learn their language from a tiny fraction of that. Streamed visual, smell, touch etc. don't help learn the grammars of (spoken) languages.

Another related post from Lemire:

Ridiculously fast unicode (UTF-8) validation
https://lemire.me/blog/2020/10/20/ridiculously-fast-unicode-...

Those algorithms are fast. But to put them in perspective. A single x86 CPU can write 64B per cycle. At 5GHz, the theorical maximum bandwidth is 320 GBps. IIRC, the read bandwidth is twice that.

There are others botlenecks, and is very hard to write code that writes at every cycle.

A interesting consequence, is that the theorical maximum bandwidth is logarithmical to the number of cycles. Again, talking about branchless streaming application.

What you are noticing is that competition is literally the worst strategy that corporations can adopt with respect to each other. Apple and Samsung probably have the keys to each other's destruction, but destroying the other would be bad because the remaining party would become a "monopoly" which is a loss condition, So the destruction is mutually assured, and intrinsic cooperation is possible. There's more money to be made cooperating, so the result is we lose the headphone jack.
"Saying "this won't work in this area that it was never designed to handle" and the answer will be "yes of course". That's true of any complex system, AI or not." This isn't about design, it's about what the system is able to learn. Humans were not designed to fly, but they can learn to fly planes (whether they're inside the plane or not).
A lot of really great technology and a lot of really great people.

I think from Apple’s POV, this is great news. Moore’s Law has been dead for years, and there has been no good reason to upgrade your devices until now. AI means it’s 1990 again, and you need to buy a new device every 18 months because the performance leap is so meaningful to the UX.
In my experience it makes less errors if you prompt it to reason carefully step by step.

The one that is most comfortable for you to use is the best coding language.

Having said that, you need a project of some kind. Any kind at all. It doesn't matter what that project is, because you will throw it away, and more than once. And that project will show you how to code, and along the way you will find your best coding language.

So start your project. Oops you don't know how to do that. So learn how that part is done. Then progress further. Oops, you don't know how to read a file. So learn how that is done, then progress further. And keep on doing this, tiny bites at a time of the project until one day the project is done.

So you look at that project. Along the way you have discovered new and better ways of doing things. Ways that are better than how you coded that part of your project. What to do?

So .... Throw that first project away. Now, rewrite it using all that new knowledge that you have picked up along the way. And you look at that project again, with even more understanding of how to code. You know what? I'll throw that project away again. It wasn't as good as I could have done it.

So you rewrite that project a second time, again including the new ways of doing things that you have learned since doing that project the second time.

Are you game enough to look at that project the third time? Because almost certainly you can now see better ways of doing things that you keep learning all along the way in doing that silly little project three times.

I have a silly little project like this. It is an emulator of the first Z80 computer that I first assembled from a huge box of components way back in the late 1970s. That emulator has progressed over the years as I have rewritten it probably more than a dozen times, and it has got more and more complex, more and more visually attractive over those dozen or so iterations.

Is it the same silly little project it started out being? In some ways, yes it is still the same. On the other hand, it is a completely different 'kettle of fish'. Along the way, I have learned about programming in three different families of Operating Systems. I have learned about two or three different ways of emulating hardware, I have learned how to convert a text-interface into a graphical interface.

And I discovered the programming language that 'works best for me': 'C'.

When I first looked at 'C' I didn't like it at all. Back then I was happier using Z80 and/or 8086 assembly language. That changed about the time I moved from MSDOS to the UNIX family of Operating Systems.

Why not both and neither? IMHO this is one of those things where people seem to congregate and advocate for one side religiously, but I don't see much value in that. Why can't the style simply imply how much scope and importance an identifier has? I've never liked naming dogma, but this is what I find to be natural:

trivialidentifier - local variables inside a function, usually < 3 words/abbrs
slightly_important_identifier - function names with limited scope
ImportantIdentifier - widely-used functions, class/struct names
More_Important_Identifier - classes/structs that are quite important
VERY_IMPORTANT_IDENTIFIER - global constants and (rarely) classes/structs
Nah, GPT is capable of halucinating stuff like this. Also seeing something once in the training data is afaik not enough for it to be able to reproduce/rephrase that thing.
I'd agree if Apple were in the business of making datacentre infrastructure.

Nobody is running these large scale models on their personal devices.

Sure, some of the image generation tech is seeing personal use, so you'd have a point there, but these immense language models are something else entirely.

It's just my opinion, but I disagree. If someone is socially high functioning enough to find a mate, that is no longer autism. We can't keep widening the "spectrum" to include anyone with mild trouble socializing.

When I was learning C++ in late 90s in the university the DOS environment I was using didn't have the i18n configured properly. My teacher noticed that I was trying to use Russian transliteration for comments and she suggested to 'just use English'. That solution didn't seem obvious to me at all.

Also some other day she suggested someone else to install Linux at that student's home PC. I followed that advice too and learned a good bunch much of my English by reading man pages.
It's interesting to compare the cost for cloud GPU's vs. buying the hardware outright. At ~$10,000 per Nvidia A100 GPU, it seems like this cloud provider would break even on the hardware after about 5 months at these rates. There are certainly other costs involved (racking, power, etc.), but that's not too bad. I'm almost surprised Nvidia doesn't cannibalize it's hardware sales by running its own cloud.

Please excuse the bluntness, but I find it hard to believe that you only trained sprints every 3 days (so 2-3 times a week max) to train for huge approaches and multi-pitch climbing (I'm a trad climber and mountaineer too).

I assume this was not done in a vacuum, but also included numerous days of climbing and approaches as well, so probably 3/week of climbing, other low intensity work, as well as your then added 2-3/week of sprints.

And yes, I agree with your last statement, after 3 weeks in the mountains acclimating for a 7000m peak, even though we got snowed out and never summited, when I got back to ground zero I felt like my lungs and legs were invincible (for about a week, then the bottom dropped out and I went back to normal again!)
