It's not what you make, it's what you save/invest. I know plenty of guys who made good money, but blew it all on bad decisions. One guy had a half million in stock from an exit where he was an early employee. The company was acquired by a public company, one that we would all recognize.

He decided he should become an angel investor (with almost no experience), blew through at least a couple hundred K there, started his own company, blew through the rest. He lived a high maintenance life style: expensive cars, expensive house, spouse that didn't work. If he had done nothing, kept the stock, stayed at his original job, it would be worth at least several million today. That public company did very well.
This seems to run counter to how humans work, or at least how Americans work.

Already many people would benefit financially from using public transport or ride-sharing, or even carpooling, but they don't. Because they want their car! Many people are paying too much to fuel up vehicles that are much too large for their normal use, but they want their truck!

Very, very, very few people think rationally about vehicle ownership, and telling them, "You know, your car can go do other things while you're working," just doesn't fly. Why would I want someone else in my car? Why would I want to have to keep my car spotless for others? What if they don't for me? What if something happens and I want to go to lunch early, or there's an emergency and my car is 20 minutes away? These aren't rational concerns for most people, but even if a company managed to truly deliver level 5 automatic driving, I can't imagine the majority of people would use it to let their cars go any farther than the nearest parking spot without them.
Or you can view it as marketing spend. Getting lots of attention online from SWEs circa 2016 is far from a bad thing for a dev tools company.
but the phrase is "Rome was not built in a day", nobody says Rome did not fall in a day

https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=rome+did+not+fall+in+a+day&...

If you want to make the case that Rome did not fall in a day, that's fine, you may have even made the case in your comment. I was just commenting on using the stock phrase wrong and expecting it to resonate.

For example, I can say "An apple a day sends you straight to the doctor." If I said that, most people would recognize that I had twisted the original phrase, and could decide if they wanted to engage with what I wrote. But if I wrote, "just like an apple a day, gluten every day will send you to the doctor", I'd expect more pushback from people, "hey, wait a minute, that doesn't make sense"
I was in a car crash and resulting fire when I was a child. The ambulance staff (and later my dad) praised me for helping my younger brother out of the car, since the door needed kicking from inside to open it.

If you have a Tesla with these stupid rear door locks, make sure your children know how to open them.

Much like car sharing today, you'll have the option to keep the car at a remote trailhead or whatever, so it will be there in 2 hours. You'll just have to continue paying for it. Otherwise, you can end your ride and take your chances that it will still be there when you get back. In areas outside the "home" area, you'll have no choice but to keep paying since you can't "return" the car there.

People that live in cities, where this is most likely to catch on earlier, already can't leave anything in their cars unless they want to come back to a smashed window.

This is not even remotely close to being correct.

There is a vast literature in cognitive science that disagrees with you.

Bonds are securities. Loans aren’t always. (Government debt in the form of Treasuries are securities. Government debt in the form of accounts payable are not.)
But why should developers conform to that specific standard, if (for them, and many of their users) it makes more sense to use a "~/.wine" (or whatever other) folder?

If i want to completely remove wine from my profile, how many folders do I have to delete doing it the old way? One - ~/.wine. How many using the new? One in .config, then .local/share, probably one in .cache... oh wait, .local/state too.. Probably.. well, maybe, I'd have to check manually. Same for other software. One folder to remove, one folder to backup, one folder to restore.

>No, it's paraphrasing it's training data that likely contains these tasks in one form or another.

Have you read "Emergent Abilities of Large Language Models"[1] or at least the related blog post[2].

It provides strong evidence that this isn't as simple as something it has seen in training data. Instead as the parameter count increases it learns to generalize from that data by learning chain-of-thought reasoning (for example).

Specifically, this explaination for multi-step reasoning goes well beyond the "it is just parroting training data":

> For instance, if a multi-step reasoning task requires l steps of sequential computation, this might require a model with a depth of at least O (l) layers.

> But I can't see how an efficient tool can't be pretty and how a pretty tool can't be efficient.

Usually pretty and efficient doesn't go well together. Pretty tools not only add useless things (such as animation, transparency, etc) that are not functional but consume resources, but also are designed towards looking good without thinking at the usability of the tool, for example a lot of whitespace and padding, big line heights and fonts, remove features that most of the user don't need, etc.

A professional tool doesn't need to be pretty. If you go to a plant control room and look at the computer screens they have an interface that looks Windows 95 usually... but that is fine, since they need to be functional, not pretty, they don't need rounded corners, they use high contrast between colours that are ugly from a design point of view but allow to see things easily.

Most email clients are shit. They show you mails in a conversational way that is just wrong, mail are not chats, but letters. They insist on composing HTML mails, instead of plain text ones (like Thunderbird does). And have a very bad UX in general.

Of many things that can improve Thunderbird (for example a better integration with Exchange/Office365 with not only the mail but also the calendar/contacts, sync settings to a Mozilla account, better search in the emails) they focus on the only thing that make most people use Thunderbird.

> I don't see the point of not wanting improvements

I see it. I'm used to a tool, that I use with satisfaction since years. There is no reason why I have to learn to use a new UI or change the way I work because somebody at Mozilla decided that we need a more fancy looking UI. The reason I choose Thunderbird is because other software, such as Outlook, became shit because they followed the same path of modernization that now is following Mozilla.

If something is not broken and users are satisfied with it, why the hell do you want to change it???

By the way, so far I'm happy with the improvements in Thunderbird that Mozilla had done, because having prettier icons and fonts, having the dark theme, are all UI improvements that are purely cosmetics and doesn't change the UX, same shortcuts that I'm used, same mode of operation, I don't have to learn a new thing. Now they decide that the whole UI must be modernized, I don't get it. I will probably stay with the last Thunderbird that will support the current UI for a long time...

Lots of times when holding my curved Samsung phone with one hand, trying to scroll content, the phone mistakenly thinks the part of my hand touching the side of the screen is another finger, and zooms instead.

I literally do not see the point of the curved screen, it adds no benefit whatsoever.

So why did I buy the phone? I live in Nicaragua, and everything else was either worse or insanely expensive. It's not that bad of a phone, in general, but the curved screen I could live without.
The union does. That's one of the things your union dues go towards.

The odds of having a cable under 100m to a DSLAM basically rounds to 0.

At an highly optimistic 1 mile you’re already down to 20Mbps and most people are significantly further than that. Remember it’s the physical distance of the cable between the actual devices that matters and that’s not straight.
Huh, I considered BSD to have a good reputation for stability and I believe network stack performance as well. Too bad.

I did very much like the debian base of VyOS. I've had pretty good experiences with OpenWRT. But it's command line configuration isn't quite as polished as VyOS imo. Interesting note about the pings.

The DBA team sets up databases and service accounts. They give those accounts to the developers. The two can’t do each others’ jobs. It helps that we are regularly audited.

Have also worked at a startup where things where as you described. I ended that immediately. It took us some time to figure out who needed what and how we could accommodate proper controls.

It really depends on circumstances, but start thinking in terms of “blast radius”.

i'm pretty sure both the article and the person you replied to are talking about verbal abuse as opposed to illegal content. and no, websites DO NOT have an obligation to make sure their content is legal. that's your own misconception as well as many judges but at the end of the day forcing people to chase intractable problems is always wrong and naive. the root problem here is that it's possible for content to be illegal, along with billion dollar brainwashing profit oriented prosecution business that made you think this is a rampant problem (it isn't).

Well this is the first time I've ever been impressed by an application of crypto, notwithstanding some major concerns.

Thing is though that this is not a wire transfer, and lot of places where wire transfers are used are specifically used because of the infrastructure and guarantees around it. Would be interesting to a shift in adoption though

Perhaps you use a smaller set of dependencies, wait a while before upgrading, or got lucky? It was necessary for us during the ruby 3.0 and 3.1 upgrades, and during the rails 7.0 upgrade.

In particular, the change during ruby 3.0 to the handling of keyword arguments vs final hash params broke a _lot_ of gems (like memoist and ruby-kafka's datadog integration), that wrap arbitrary methods, because when they wrap keyword-argument methods, they passed the arguments into the wrapped method as hash-args instead.

I expect that the longer you wait after a release to upgrade, the less it's an issue - the ecosystem takes time to catch up. We've been staying fairly on top of the upgrades.
i'm surprised that Balut wasn't number one and that a Canadian layered pizza was in the top 5. obviously "authenticity" played into a lot of the ratings.

> I see no reason why a language model doesn't have this kind of semantic relationship

One certainly could hook up a language model to sensors and actuators to give it semantic relationships with the rest of the world. But nobody has done this. And giving it semantic relationships of the same order of complexity and richness that human brains have is an extremely tall order, one I don't expect anyone to come anywhere close to doing any time soon.

> Tokens and their co-occurrences are a kind of sensor to the world

They can be a kind of extremely low bandwidth, low resolution sensor, yes. But for that to ground any kind of semantic relationship to the world, the model would need the ability to frame hypotheses about what this sensor data means, and test them by interacting with the world and seeing what the results were. No language model does that now.
> Cut people some slack.

yes, I agree, that's what I was advocating: HNers with a personal anecdotal axe to grind frequently throw away the value of good posts because they have just have to grind their axe axe again.

people here should cut the researchers some slack and at least read the evidence at face value
ChatGPT's writing in this scenario reads like my writing in high school in the cases where I was too lazy to do the reading but had a vague outline of what I was supposed to be writing about; that is, there's no real substance to it that people haven't heard a million times before; it lacks the soul that usually comes from becoming intimate with the nuances and quirks of the material.
Would you still get equity grants and bonuses if you went on strike while working at a normal company?
Your point is more about subnets and less about VLANs. You can have firewall rules that restrict entire subnets from access the Internet; you don't have to define a rule for each device. VLANs just give you assurance that a device can't just change its subnet to your main one and gain access that way. Realistically, there wouldn't be any IoT device that would do this. But I agree if you can do VLANs, you should do them over basic subnets.
I’ve been using AWS for 11 years and never heard them refer to service degradation or disruption as an “outage”. Unless it was totally down.

So maybe internally they name things differently but not what they tell customers.
That's why that kind of software uses a .programX directory, where everything like that can be put in.

Look at ~/.wine for example... config files, whole C drive, everything in one simple folder. Want to upgrade to an alpha version to test something, but don't want to break anything that's now working? Just backup that one single folder. Restore or migrate configuration to another computer? One single folder. Remove any trace of that app? Again, one simple folder.

Want to do the same with google chrome? .config/google-chrome... oh wait, what if there's something in .local too? Still doesn't work? Oh wait, you forgot the .cache directory, and have been loading an old version of something.
>why does it seem like tyranny is easier to keep?

Tyranny is the default of civilization. When left alone, that's what it turns into. Tyranny is weeds in your garden. A few here and there not plucked, after a while, you have nothing to eat. Freedom and liberty must always be tended to because of this.

Landing at a class bravo isn’t really anything special and some bravo airports are pretty small. It’s more about the airspace than the airport. Some bravo airports have heavy general aviation traffic. Others charge large landing fees.

And some airports aren’t technically “bravo” but the most common method of getting there involves transiting bravo airspace.

A human hears words in context. Those words tie to things in the environment, responses to the young human's actions, etc. A parent saying, "roll the ball" during playtime with their kid and actually pushing a ball back and forth, provides a grounding of words in actual experience.

> is there anything that would stop LLMs from being able to do the same thing?

If you built an AI system which could hear/see/touch/move etc, and it learned language and vision and behaviors together, such that it knows that a ball is round, can be thrown or rolled, is often used at playtime, etc, then maybe it could understand rather than just produce language. I don't know that we would still call it an LLM, because it could likely do many other things too.
My understanding is that unions pay out during a strike. That's one of the uses of union dues.
