> you have a lack of understanding in communication, neural nets, or you’re trying to blow things out of proportion for some reason

Surely there's a more appropriate way to say that, and a more charitable reading of my comment. As a researcher in the field, I think it's safe to say I understand the models, and maybe I am overly sensitive at people jumping to wrong conclusions because I'm so tired of it.

The issue isn't the communication aspect of the analogy, it's the reasoning aspect. For example, people who understand these things say "these work like people" (a useful analogy) and then people who don't understand them say "well if they work like people then they should be legislated like people" (not useful reasoning because the assumption in the "if" was just an analogy). The game of telephone is the danger.

You can see lay people in this very thread taking the analogies literally and extrapolating based on literal interpretations of model-brain analogies.
You have to account that not everyone is working in the US. For someone earning 15k$ per year, 600$ is not little money.

I think the right choice would be for Apple to stick with Intel for the Mac Pro. Its a vanity project focused on a tiny market that wants full expandability and compatibility. I thought apple learned their lesson with the Trash Can Mac Pro.

Well, it kinda started in 1994...

I beg to differ and strongly disagree. Pre-Microsoft Skype was a genius invention and performed admirably for the time (~2005) considering how limited PC specs and bandwidth were back then.

It used p-2-p over port 80 so it would always reach its destination no matter the firewall rules on your network, and it allowed file transfers up to 2GB(!) in size, in 2005(!).

There were no better alternatives at the time.

Exclude the tax exemptions and subsidies given to those companies and then check if they're profitable or not.
But would you really assert that 1950s in the US was a complete monolith? I think the reason we might intuitively see it that way is because, ironically, we're outsiders. But of course I'm sure you'd agree that there were countless little cultures going on at the time there as well, even within the same cities.

So it seems clear that "mainstream" culture is not monolithic, merely dominant. You can always find bubbles everywhere, but if outside of those bubbles you find one concept being preached endlessly - it's pretty safe to say that that concept is the "mainstream" culture, and those that run contrary to such would inherently be counter-culture.

I can just see the article now: OpenAI is run by a bunch of violent racist sexist rapists. Using the new "safe search off mode", we found out ChatGPT's underlying biases, and it turns out that it's horrible, the people that made it are horrible, and you're a horrible person for using their service. But really we're horrible for writing this article.

OpenAI doesn't want that story to be written, but after Microsoft Tay, you can be sure someone's got an axe to grind and is itching to write it, especially against such a high-profile target.

How does a disclaimer stop that article from coming out?
And a lot of times that can be true, being young and gifted is amazing, but doesn't overcome years of experience in the trenches.

Is it worth dramatically more in an eBay sale?

These machines were:

A. Ludicrously priced in this configuration new to begin with

and

B. Have been thoroughly "osbourned" by the ARM macs.

although we don't have a direct replacement machine (e.g. ARM mac with PCI-E slots), a Mac Studio off the Apple store floor will outperform it in so many tasks at a fraction of the price, power consumption and size.

I wouldn't want to buy this computer 2nd hand at any price other than fire sale low, personally. For those of us who lived through the PowerPC to Intel transition, the speed at which G5 PowerMac towers became worthless was pretty impressive and I suspect the same happens for the intel - ARM transition, if not more so.
For me, whole DOM is a useless overhead. Why don’t we just have some nice transactional browser API? Client side frameworks don’t really need to generate HTML that is immediately parsed. It’s a total waste.
Not free, I'm assuming it will remain "Pay as you go". (for occasional scripts, or use through other apps)
> to engage with a drunk girl who can't properly consent

Shouldn't we disallow girls from drinking alcohol, then? It's rather weird to allow parties with alcohol, and then claim that rape occured "because someone was drunk and so cannot be held responsible for their decisions".

What if the man was also drunk? If a drunk person can't be held responsible for their decisions, well...

I don't understand why is it always about guys supposedly taking advantage of girls.
I taught myself to code just to build a prototype of a couple of products. ChatGPT seems to be good enough for figuring out a lot of functions and digging through documentation. I know that some of the code might be off and likely doesn't follow best practices, but my goal is just to get the prototype up and running.

I've learned enough that I can put it all together. Learning any more will mean going down the full-time dev route, which, while enticing, is something I don't have enough time for.

ChatGPT is just a way to speed up the process.
I don't think anything particularly detectable; they're so outweighed by the planet they're orbiting that the barycenter doesn't move measurably.

ChatGPT is, for most use cases, a simple conversational wrapper around GPT3.5 which is available via API. You can make your own ChatGPT by giving the following prompt to GPT3.5:

and a human. The AI assistant can provide factual information
(but only from before mid 2021, when its training data cuts
off), ask clarifying questions, and engage in chit chat.

Transcript:

Output the next thing the AI says:

This will work basically like ChatGPT for nearly all use cases, and does not have the same lobotimization caused by their safety RLHF features.
Every time I refresh my gear I try to figure out which is more cost effective - buying top tier stuff and getting another X years out of it before obsolescence or buying mid-tier stuff and just refreshing more often.

I end up just getting the top(ish) tier because once I start clicking on things I can't resist but obviously given the rate technology develops any 50k machine was bound to lose its value fast.
Did you don't multiple test before and after? 20 points might be just variability for a single test of poor quality.

I wonder if it is for companies who had lots of Mac Pros, in many weird configuration, eyeing Apple Silicon. In which case, because many of them don't want to deal with eBay or customer service, it is often quickest and cheapest to send them to a recycling center. But if Apple will take them all for a quick $1K each and no extra employee effort... why not?
Even in Houston, which is an exceptionally hot and humid city in the summer, and cold and humid in the winter, outdoor dining is ubiquitous across the city in all seasons. A popular restaurant down the street from me is outdoor-only and stays packed in the evenings year round. There is no dearth of outdoor dining in the US.

On monsoon days, or during periods of peak heat/cold? Yes, the outdoor table attendance is down, but rarely zero.

As others have stated though, outdoor dining in other cities is typically nothing at all like what the Atlantic is discussing in NYC. NYC wasn't built for outdoor dining, but it has nothing to do with being car-centric, or too hot/humid.
Does Budgie have a support timeline of how long they support old versions for?
And if you don't store much inside the workflows themselves - it's quite cheap even if you have hundreds of thousands invocations.
Seems like it's the Linux limitation[1][2]. Testing it myself, I made a directory "/home/bla/a", and inside this directory, a symlink that refers to "../a".

After 41 invocations of "cd a", doing another "cd a" takes me to the root directory (so /home/bla/a).

Perhaps when the web server tries to follow the 41st symlink the system says "You've recursed to much, go to /some/path/not/accessible/to/the/http/user" and that's why it returns a 403.

And the directory (well, symlink) isn't listed at depth 40 because the server knows following it will lead to a 403.

"Free love" to the very conservative social morals coming out of the 1950s was just as shocking. You're looking at this with a perspective 60 years after the fact when "free love" has largely been normalized. Obscenity and homosexuality used to be regularly prosecuted back in the 1950s for example.

Also, some aspects of the counterculture like the Manson family, Various Sex Cults, or Jim Jones Cult, massive drug use, the huge increases in crime were not good. However, now all the ugly parts have been ignored and idealized by the people who took the hippie culture mainstream.

Especially because it's not sufficient against a motivated adversary.

To my ears, there's a difference!

I am watched. (present passive)
I was watched. (past passive)
I have been watched. (present perfect passive)
I had been watched. (past perfect passive)

I am being watched. (present progressive passive)
I was being watched. (past progressive passive)
I've been being watched. (present perfect progressive passive)
I'd been being watched. (past perfect progressive passive)

I must be watched.
I must have been watched.
I must have been watched.
I must have had been watched.

I must be being watched.
I must've been being watched.
I must've been being watched.
I must've had been being watched.

I think is roughly it? Although now I'm beginning to doubt myself, and maybe it is just:

I must be watched.
I must have been watched.
I must have been watched.
I must have been watched.

I must be being watched.
I must've been being watched.
I must've been being watched.
I must've been being watched.

or really, maybe it's better to say those forms don't exist:

I must be watched.
I must have been watched.
—
—

I must be being watched.
I must've been being watched.
—
—

What's neat is that I can assign meaning to "must've 'd been", but it really teeters on the edge, sometimes sounding strange but acceptable and sometimes sounding simply wrong.

I can't find many examples of it, but there are a few I've found online:

"To qualify for a special enrollment due to a permanent move, you must have had been enrolled in other minimum essential coverage, such as under a job-based health plan, another Marketplace plan, or Medicaid."

"Sales must have had been in the same year as the tax return."

So perhaps it's best to say it's nonstandard but attested.

> Stable Diffusion is going to be a lot better at telling whether two images are the same than a perceptual hash check.

Why would it be? Stable diffusion is a text-to-image model it's not at all focussed on determining whether images are the same.

Secondly, I'm not proposing deduplication of the training set (I know some sibling comments have proposed this). I'm proposing a perceptual hash or similar check on the way out so that if a "generated image" is too similar to an image in the training set it gets dropped rather than returned.
This is the problem in a nutshell, do you define a "good recipe" as one that is historically accurate, that tastes good, or that follows various belief systems like not culturally appropriating or only culturally appropriating when you do a good job of it?

Meanwhile the ad sales platform is going to define a "good recipe" as one that results in high click thru on ads they have contracts for.

And add a side dish of the people doing the rating of how good the page is, specifically have zero skill in the field and are going to have intense normie middle of the road bias because on average they don't know anything.

If you magically crowdsourced the averaged opinion of average folks about the General Theory of Relativity in 1900, would that result be useful and have beaten Einstein before he wrote it in 1915? The AI people think so; especially the ones who's paychecks depend on it; personally I have my doubts.
If that's an argument so is this: most coders don't like commenting, nobody bothers, comments are haphazard and unmaintained. Just skip them.

You don't seem to have understood my remarks; It's not "commit per function", but cover each function that was touched (or other entity: class, global variable, type, object member) in your commit comment.

When someone does "git log" they should be able to search for the name of a function of interest and see all commits which touch it, explaining what was done to it and why.

Banish squash commits; it's a poor CM practice. If you're not able to get your developers to commit to a good practice, then that's your main problem. You have to fix that before engaging "comment versus commit".

I think the moral of the story is that you shouldn't be paying $50k for a machine that can do essentially the same stuff as a machine that costs 10x less. You didn't get screwed on the trade-in, you got screwed on the purchase.

I can't believe in this day and age there are still solutions like this. This is reminiscent of having to manually set IRQ settings to get games to play properly and is one of the reasons I stopped using Windows decades ago. This is giving me PTSD flashbacks.
If you have an Nvida card you could use Nvidia broadcast. It runs as a virtual microphone that other apps can target as the voice input. So Nvidia broadcast will receive the raw input from your real microphone, process it, and feed it to any applications that are targeting the Nvidia broadcast mic as their voice input. It also doesn't appear to add any noticeable latency.

> This ultra-low value disrespects the customers.

Almost no consumers bought this thing. The only buyers who would be using the trade-in are companies... and then it suddenly makes more sense. You get your IRS depreciation, and a quick $1K instead of sending them to the recycling center (because it's sometimes not worth employee time to figure out eBay, handle shipments, check which ones work and how well, handle returns...).
Seeing the way the media and public outcry goes, unfortunately, I think that it's not even really OpenAI's fault anymore, unless their handwringing about the dangers of releasing models for their transition to being closed helped fuel the fire.

In any case, NovelAI seems to be the most hands-off company offering generations as a service, so if they ever run a ChatGPT clone I assume it will be the defacto choice if you don't like not being able to have generations with naughty words or worse.

But seriously, even just googling for information about GPT turns up 1,000 articles exactly like this:

> However, I would question whether removing Latin or Ancient Greek as a requirement meaningfully lowers the quality of education

In Classics, where Ancient Greek and Latin are principal topics of study

I understand why we might relent on not teaching them as a part of general studies, but in Classics, Theology and Ancient History at the graduate level there's no way to escape the need to read the original, and anyone who must rely on translation will remain crippled in the field as long as they do so.
Agreed, but in this case the outside incentives align with the passion, thus making this style proliferate.

> 1. Typically, your libraries don't shift under you without any action from your part. External services do.

External services should have versioning, just like libraries.

> 2. ...

They don't need to be 'or'.

> 3. ...

I write tests for this. If I'm using a networking library/function (let's use `fetch` as an example) to talk to a 3rd party external service, I write a wrapper around it to deal with error cases. I then write tests for that wrapper. Anything that uses that wrapper is then inherently tested at the networking level. I then write tests for my own code which uses the wrapper, to deal with the thrown exceptions and how that code should deal with them (retries, throw again, etc).

You don't do that? Do you just assume that all calls to `fetch` succeed?
It's not as dead as you think it is.
