They want the platform to survive, otherwise they wouldn't have bothered listening to user feedback. Either way, I'm happy to see they are doing something about how toxic SO is. The community has certainly earned its reputation. I for one don't think being an asshole is the only way to drive down noise.

I'm kind of curious, because I've heard the line of reasoning about keeping it "clean" multiple times. Like its only purpose is to be a pristine knowledge base where every question is asked only once, and a perfect answer is selected and enshrined for all time. That's all wonderful and magical, but how does also serving it's purpose as a QA platform for new people on the struggle bus prevent that first goal?
There was a report just a few days ago of a system that was passing output to the Python eval() function - someone used that to steal an OpenAI API key: https://twitter.com/ludwig_stumpp/status/1619701277419794435

It's vitally important that anyone building against language models like GPT3 understands prompt injection in depth, so they don't make mistakes like this.

Yup, it's a terrible idea, even if theoretically possible
I assume they've done enough fine tuning training that "you" works in the completion model. It shouldn't be too far from working in completion just based on internet text.
That’s DRM. Specifically for browsers -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encrypted_Media_Extensions
The difference between ChatGPT and Wikipedia is that Wikipedia actually cites its sources.

Also ChatGPT is only knowledgeable about general things, but even there it makes errors. It's basically a very complex scraping algorithm, the more interesting part is the language generation; even then this stuff seems at least unethical if not illegal since it's using other people's work/research without citation.
I'm confused, do they actually program these chatbots by inputting text into their language model? Is it not possible to hardcode values into these things?

I know most of the AIs these days are really just operating off of statistics moreso than logic but this seems stupid even for them.

I'm a UI/UX designer with 2+ years experience, you can see some of my works in my dribbble. I'm a very curious person and I'm always looking for creating something new. I do have experience in various fields and I'm always enjoying creating a good connections with my customers.I have been working with many different teams and also I did have a good connection with development team to provide their needs.

Well, I'm looking eagerly to improve my skills while contributing to a team of enthusiastic people building something great. I did some research about your company and I'm pretty confident my skill set fits the job, and the job promises space for my personal advancement and contribution.
Apple is forcing Dropbox to cripple itself because they now have to use Apple's own cloud file sync API which is hot garbage. I don't know if this is the cause of your iPad issue, but Dropbox on MacOS is about to get a whole lot shittier.
The scary real threatening and killer thing would be for chatGPT to automanage my tabs. Like a well-meaning shepherd, perhaps create new pages on the web that by a combined virtue can take the place of whole groups of open tabs, being equivalent convenient replacements of the information they once held.
As far as configure is concerned, I'd like to add that 16394 is close to 2^14, not 2^16.
I'm not sure how to address it, but if I'm reading you and rayiner correctly, you're both trying to make an anticolonial point. He's saying something about India being older and therefore more culturally mature, or something. No?

Depends on how much you care about using C#, AOT compilation, HPC#, consoles support, shader graphs, hot code reloading, raytracing,...

If you care about those, maybe a 5, higher if not.
That's hairsplitting. If you report something that some anonymous guy said as fact, without being able to verify anything, it's not credible. To be credible, one needs to provide some, you know, credits. Some evidence of why it's true. With all love of everybody around to say "without evidence" on anything they disagree with, somehow when there's a case when somebody literally says something without any evidence, we're supposed to just take it as fact? No way.
Sure, but I’m pretty sure you still need root to access the Docker daemon. And if you don’t need root, like if you add your account to the Docker group, then your account is essentially always root (since having access to the Docker daemon let’s you do anything).

Podman is just an app. It’s like Vim or ffmpeg. Imagine if Vim ran as a root daemon at all times and you ran sudo to connect to it and edit text files in your home directory. That’s how silly the Docker architecture is.
Same -- like I put in the post, I have 3 (2x Fx0 and one other older one) :)

Maybe we just have to wait until people go back to unleashing the browser? The browser has only gotten better in the meantime, maybe the project can make a comeback.
This defeats the entire original appeal of Twitter, which was to avoid the ginormous walls of text that Uncle Rico would put on his wall talking about his love for Jesus.
A small suggestion for your docs: instead of using foo and bar, you might be better off using well known examples, like cart and items, or projects and tasks. This usually helps to understand the context.
One might even add a schema of the explainer context in the documentation somewhere.
It's mostly about costs.

I have 1 Tb of pictures.

For example DigitalOcean: 1 Tb volume storage (without the instance) is $100/mo.

S3: $13/mo (most would be infrequent access) + traffic would prob be free (100Gb/mo, I don't think I would read more than that).

I am not interested in single servers that can crash on a low-cost provider that can catch fire, get my account deleted because of a software bug, get stolen at home, etc.
Anybody here on HN involved in phage research?

As far as I understand, viruses tend to be only resistant in one direction: either antibiotics or phages, but they can't be resistant to both.

In the 2010s there were a lot of public talks at the DKFZ (German cancer research center) where research teams were looking for getting more attention and funds for that area, but I have no clue what happened to that.

Sars-cov-2 was kind of the prime example of a virus that you can't beat with antibiotics, so I was assuming that every pharma company would now direct their research at bacteriophage research...but there's not much information about it as far as I can tell.

Anyone have some interesting papers on that?

IMHO Prompt-, like SQL-Injection will largely be used to steal prompts, so therefore the "business model" of some startups and will largely be automated.

And its even worse: where sql at least requires "some" knowledge of the database below, prompt injection will just flat out work over all "chat like bots".

Its not inherently a problem, but the more functionality you give to your bot the more it can be exploited and I do see DDOS attacks by chat bots as a very real possebility.
That's a great quote, probably heard in a meeting

TBI is used by memory tagging extension (MTE; primary ingredient to "HWASAN"). I'd be pretty surprised if Apple Silicon didn't support it officially. IIRC they're 8.6 and MTE is specified in 8.5? Note that it's not the same as pointer authentication which Apple actively promotes and as I recall contributed on the community toolchain development for this feature.
Damn, I thought Edge made the perfect PDF reader/annotator and now it’ll harass you to do ‘more’ with Adobe junk in it.
Well, I wouldn’t say it was the community speaking. This is what the operators wanted because the old way was not “welcoming” enough and didn’t contribute enough to growth. Hey, it’s a business. I get it.

No. Even with "premium" stuff like 3D and IMAX, it's still only like $20.

> This actually strikes me as a rational compromise that will bring in a few million $ a month in revenue with significantly disrupting the development/research/comedy bot ecosystem.

A few millions a month is peanuts compared to what Twitter actually needs, which is measured in billions per year. Was it worth the negative publicity and reinforcing the image that Twitter is unsteady and that policy is changed day to day by a flailing attention-addicted teenager? The end result might sound reasonable, but the process to get there was anything but.
I imagine it's because we use the tools we know. There are likely more effective approaches that would look like gibberish, but we don't have the insight to use those. All we have is the English hammer, so we approach every problem as if it were an English nail.
Quantifying Human Performance in Chess
Hopefully eBikes/scooters will start to standardize their charging interfaces. If I am not mistaken the new USB-C PD standard can pump out 240W(48V) and the older PD standard can do 100W(20V). I think that would be the most obvious solution, and with the new USB PD standard going up to 48v, that would cover most models without any extra voltage regulation circuitry.

I semi recently moved from small town Canada to big city Europe and decided to go car free and just use an electric scooter. If I could plug it in (and not have to lug around a charger) and lock it up somewhere, that would be amazing. I get about 15k-20km per charge, which is more or less perfect since I can go anywhere in the city and back home, but it would be nice to top up on some occasions.
Some people enjoy not working some of the time. If that's hard for you to believe, I'd love to know what job you have! :)
Linux falls under the second category where they don't really care about securing their users. They think it's okay for a ton of servers of their operating system to exist with vulnerable services running. Every company has to dedicate duplicate resources into keeping servers up to date.

That sounds kind of like the opposite of how you'd want to slowly end up domesticating a lifeform, doesn't it?
I keep on oscillating between a multi monitor setup and a single laptop screen.

I found out that as a web developer, multi monitor setup is a must because you ideally want 1 screen dedicated just for the web site you are working on.

But I understand that compromises must be made if you are going to be moving about.
An air conditioner - even a crappy $200 window unit - will draw an order of magnitude more power than OP’s 50 watt refrigerator. You’ll need much more solar, either more panels or bigger panels (likely both).
If you're OpenAI, you couldn't really care less about it, I suppose, because people need you to run those prompts, they're not easily transferred between models if I understand correctly.

But if you're an OpenAI-API-Reseller and your value proposition is prepending a prompt to whatever input you're given, that's very much a concern, because people can easily cut out the middle man if they have the prompt. The SaaS boom has happened for the same reason, hasn't it? If you deliver a software / library, people can look at it and replace you. If all you provide an API where nobody can "view source", they can't, and you can forever collect rent.
Those comments are much dumber than I remember them being.
You won’t be able to find the useful questions because they’re buried under garbage. This problem is papered over by a lot of high-rep old answers but it’s going to look longer and longer in the tooth as those get dated. The platform “surviving” is orthogonal to it being what its original users were looking for.
The Lightyear One [1] is supposed to be a solar powered car but I think it misses an important distinction. Cars spend a lot of time parked and during this time they can unfold a large capacity of solar panels like petals of a flower (similar to how spacecraft deploy once they leave the fairing). You can cover the windshield and all the other windows, for example.

Instead, the Lightyear One has focused on streamlining the solar panels in an aerodynamic way that doesn't take advantage of extra power when parked.

Rather overstated. How you perceive the wavefunction has no bearing on how it works.

But it is a valid to be concerned about quantum woo which deliberately misapplies quantum mechanics to macroscopic ones and even the idea of consciousness, all of which is total bullshit.

I have a distant relative who is a religious fundamentalist who thinks that quantum mechanics means that his belief about the veracity of a faith claim is in fact the determinant of its truth. No surprise he likes Jordan Peterson.
I find this interesting, because in Europe unions protect everyone (or should in principle), there is no law difference between if someone belongs to a union or not, and if the company decided to be part of union agreements with the government, that means everyone gets to be part of the agreement, regardless of having a union membership card or not.
Defining characteristic of arid is little precipitation. Desert is more about sandy soil that supports sparse vegetation.

If wasteland can accumulate organic material, and start rebuilding the soil, it starts retaining more water, which brings in more vegetation. This reverses desertification. There are some good examples of this in India. There are parts of the Arizona central canal which accidentally created bearms that also started this effect.
NBA Jam Tournament Edition for the arcade had a CPU with bitwise addressing https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMS34010 and the programmers used the lower 3 bits of pointers to store extra values. Source: a friend of mine ported the game to the PC by hand-transcoding the assembly.
Trustfall isn't trying to compete with SQL; doing so would be suicidal and pointless. If the dataset being queried already has a statistics-gathering query optimizer, it's just the wrong call to not use that optimizer. If one wrote a Trustfall query that is partially or fully served by data in a SQL database, the correct answer is to use Trustfall to compile that piece of the query to SQL and run it as SQL (perhaps by adding some auto-pagination/parallelization before compiling to SQL, but that's beside the point).

Most uses of data don't have anything like SQL / any kind of a query language, let alone an optimizer. No tool I know of other than Trustfall can let one have optimization levers (automatic or human-in-the-loop) where one can optimize access to a REST API, a local JSON file, or a database -- all separately from how you write the query.

With Trustfall, I'm not promising "magical system that will optimize your queries for you without you having to lift a finger" -- at least not for a good long while. But I can promise, and deliver, "you can write queries over any combo of data sources, and if need be optimize them without rewriting them from scratch." This means that you can have product-facing engineers write queries, and infra-facing engineers optimize them, with both sides isolated from the other: product doesn't care if there's a cache or an index or a bulk API endpoint vs item-at-a-time endpoint, and infra has strong guarantees on execution performance and optimizability so they aren't that worried about a product query getting out of hand and wrecking the system. Trustfall buys operational freedom and leverage across your entire data footprint.

You can see this effect in play in cargo-semver-checks. We use lint-writing as an onboarding tool, because anyone can write a query, and we know we can optimize them later if need be. Both Trustfall and the adapters will get better over time, so queries get faster "naturally". We get efficient execution over many different rustdoc JSON formats simultaneously, without version-specific query logic. And while the hashtable indexing optimizations required some manual work that I didn't time exactly, it was limited to ~1-2h tops and made all queries in the repo faster automatically with no query changes. Rolling out the optimization would be operationally very simple: it's trivial to test, and thanks to the Trustfall engine, I wouldn't have to test it with every combination of filters and edge operations -- if the edge fetch logic is correct, the engine guarantees the rest. Put simply, nobody else needed to know that I made the optimization -- the only observable impact to any other dev on the project is that queries run faster now.
Fully agree, but the problem is not really specific to AI. Most search results today, whether written by humans or machines, tend to be mindless, inaccurate, and unhelpful n-th hand summaries produced with very little effort.

And this doesn't seem unreasonable, given that you get everything for free or at a very low cost. When you pay for high quality books or periodicals, you get in return much better sourced information written by people who know a lot more about the subject they're writing on than the average journalist or AI language model.

Yes, occasionally one might find high quality contents in blogs, forums, wikis, or open-access periodicals, but far more are locked inside proprietary platforms or behind paywalls that do very little to actually compensate the authors.

Search engines and content platforms are supposed to make it easier to find what you want. But the reality is that it's a lose-lose situation for both the writer and the reader. The writer is forced to give up their contents at a very low price and overpay for ads, while the reader is left with low quality contents that aren't relevant to their needs. But neither can escape the monopoly, who alone profits at everyone else's expense.
Yes but it would have been much worse without the vaccine
I am not involved with phage research.

However, antibiotics do not work on viruses.

I believe you mean bacterial infections, which seem to either evolve protections against antibiotics or protections against bacteriophages, but not both.

Phage is short for bacteriophage. They are viruses that attack bacteria. As far as I know there are not viruses that target other viruses, except as a side effect - the viral life cycle is dependent on a host, and a coronavirus has little to offer a bacteriophage. Similarly, antibiotics target bacteria, not viruses. Antivirals often have very different mechanisms of action.
Two things can be true…

Vaccines are typically very effective. So effective they can eliminate a virus among vaccinated populations.

Covid-19 vaccines are sorta effective. They didn’t eliminate virus transmission among vaccinated populations. But they reduced the severity of cases.

Pretending the vaccines weren’t underwhelming in terms of efficacy doesn’t do us any favors, because people know from their own experience that most vaccinated people have had Covid.
