Same :)

But here's another layer, though. What if it isn't?

Our science fiction is filled with this fairly human-chauvinistic worldview where even in a hypothetical future where we are rubbing shoulders with many different alien species, many of them technologically superior to ours, some of them still admire or begrudgingly respect us for our ingenuity, spirit, some je ne sais quoi.

That we're illogical and inconsistent and jealous and petty and insecure, but also humble and funny and empathetic and creative.

But...we have no evidence that this would be unique about humans whether sentient intelligence is common throughout the universe or rare. In fact, it's quite possible, that this is a necessary prerequisite, side effect, or consequence of conscious intelligence.

So this hypothetical martian maybe would just smile, nod and say "Ah yes, the company was embarrassed, or didn't want to risk liability, or didn't want to risk their reputation being compromised. But OP just wanted a thank you. He wouldn't have wanted money, just a 'hey thanks for finding that for us'. And it soured him on the whole experience. Been there, my new human bro, been there."

edit: I wrote this before I saw the rest of the replys, and HOLY, there's a bunch of humans that don't understand why OP stopped playing.
Exactly. Last year I switched from Mac to Windows. I was in a hurry to set up something else for work so I didn't download Chrome right away. And when I finally went to install Chrome, I realized that I had used Edge for a while and everything worked fine. So I just stopped using Chrome.
Anyone has the link to the usenet discussion saying that PC (R15) as a GPR was too "uniform" (idk how it called it)?
It's never occurred to me that it would be advantageous to do this. Would anyone like to guess why?

What kind of game are you making? This is a bit like asking "If you make software, do you prefer C++ or JavaScript or something else?" Obviously it depends!
Microwaves transmit on a frequency nowhere near missile systems and are not modulated in any way resembling a missile fire control system, but cool story.

My favourite part of this story is that Sandra's handle on the fansites at the time was "srand". A highly appropriate coincidence, given the nature of the bug!

Dang, Satya Nadella isn't pulling any punches here. I love those quotes. "I want people to know that we made [Google] dance"! Can you imagine Sundar ever saying something like that?

Anyway, this is the reason Google invested in TPUs early on. They may have to start spending more on building out TPU clusters, but at least they don't have to pay Nvidia's profit margins to do it.
That author doesn't say Esri is a scourge; more like it's just generally bad to have only 1 provider in a space -- and that it's up to customers to change that by voting with their feet.

I think Esri is (and has been) in a very similar position to Microsoft's in the late 1990s -- having achieved market dominance, they feel like open source software is the biggest threat to their business. But I think the presence of QGIS is creating competition, which is nothing but good for the industry.

(I worked as a developer for Esri for 15 years)
Instead of a reference + north/east meters, how about two reference points, and then everything is referenced as polar coordinates from there, point A to point B being 0 degrees. My concern would be if the direction of north/east changed over time from the plate movement.

I stopped visiting the site after greedy publishers started to destroy links with useful information.

There should be a penalty for a free page going behind a paywall. Paywall pages also appear at the top of google searches because they were left there as a bait for indexing bots for months and then got paywalled. Not cool, medium.
Ah, I think I’m beginning to understand…

Selling worthless copies of GIFs to people by claiming they’re totally gonna appreciate in value: Crypto

Immutable, unforgeable and universally provable transmission of proof of ownership of real valuable consideration/property: Crypto

Perhaps one of these is a scam, and the other is a valuable business transaction?

Any typed language should always be improving at least because there will always be meaningful propositions which the type system cannot prove. As the language team develops ways to infer or preserve type information they may wish to modify semantics to express these things.

> I’d be curious to know what kind of professional would choose to express themselves in this way, it’s pretty embarrassing.

Embarrassing for pointing out that OO is dead and it is not acceptable to ask users to wait almost 40 years to get networking support into the standard library? No, C++ standard committee members should be embarrassed, not those disappointed users.

> that blog post - as many Rust-themed blogs from start-ups - is a submarine article attempting to increase the notoriety of their product.

As any article published by an commercial entity, it is always about increasing its economic benefits. Personally, I don't know anyone from the company but their blog is just one more success story of depreciating C++ and I applaud for that.

> Having memory leaks in 2021 is incomprehensible. This is an amateur mistake of the worst kind in modern C++.

Sorry but I stopped reading after this. I've been writing software for the past 20 years, worked for the biggest names in industrial, had my PhD in CS about 15 years ago, I write code on almost daily basis (Linux kernel modules, database kernel, infrastructure kind of code). I make the above mentioned amateur mistakes pretty often.

Not saying I am highly skilled, just saying if I can make such mistakes after working 20 years in the field, it wouldn't be rare for other people especially those young developers.

btw, I recently had a nasty memory leak bug in golang that took me a couple days to reproduce and debug, yes, in a GC based language.
I'll have to check this out. Really great to see more of "cad as code". My current favorite is cadquery. It's pretty neat in that it simply is python.

Many great ideas both in the paper and in the comments, but people forget that we don't own our devices any more, we just rent them. If we owned them we could have replaced the batteries ourselves, or change the bootloads or do anything we want. Contrary to what happened with TVs, were models are being sold at a lower pricce with the help of spyware installed on the TV, some phones are sold at full price and still we don't own them.

No it’s not. My local grocery store has incidents hourly, heck, you can get lucky and see it for yourself where some guy just walks out with a basket full of stuff (security can’t really stop them given liability). If it were fabricated, we wouldn’t see it happen in person so much.
These aren't even the real pain points. Most people using Medium aren't using it to discover new content. The CEO clearly has no clue what they are doing.
Based on what the CEO said, it sounds like they want to get paid for a recommendation engine that surfaces quality, substantial content. Upping the signal-to-noise ratio. Where traditional newspapers have editorial policy and journalistic standards, you could see that as an authoritative "these are the rules and follow them". I could see medium attempting a more 'free market system' where writers are incentivized to write quality content by getting views and money and the snuff sinks to the bottom. Essentially taking a more 'automated system of incentives' approach to try and fill that newspapery niche.

Especially with the consideration that traditional newspapers typically don't have niche content like programming articles.
> Both Google and Microsoft are pulling the same shady technique [...] They will ship free bullshit-generators and say it’s up to everyday people to sift through the mess.

Can't really understand the meltdown some people are having... Honestly, what you get from well trained GPTs doesn't seem that different than getting search results and and sifting through human-generated bs yourself... including biased mainstream newspapers, stupid StackOverflow answers, self-made wikipedia articles, opinionated blogposts, and a long etc that you need to double-check anyways.

That probably makes LLMs more human xD, at least at this early stage. They should get better with time (hopefully).
Well, only specific bank accounts are subject to FACTA:

...

Investment accounts and custodial accounts (of individuals and entities), even when they are a resident in the FACTA partner country. This is true, as long as the custody account doesn't have income flows into this accounts (eg dividends or interests).

You say that investment accounts are subject to FACTA, but not anymore if dividends or interest earnings flow in? I'm confused.
The premise in the comment that started this chain is that Firefox's declining market share is caused by a lack of XUL support.

The only way this can be true, but for Pale Moon and similar to have almost no userbase, is if the majority of people are leaving FF for lack of XUL support and going to Chrome/Safari, which makes little sense to me.
Laundry detergent, baby milk powder are pretty popular if they aren’t locked up already. QFC in Capitol Hill had to lock up ice creams which is surprising to me since it can’t be fenced. Lego’s are popular at local neighborhood Targets, they were being fenced at Pike Place Market for awhile. I saw some lady buying up shop lifted paper towels on third and pine once when waiting for the bus (before they closed the stop down last year). I’m like WTF, really? If it isn’t perishable, it’s probably fair game.
Thanks for throwing in yet another choice for me to consider... :)

I feel like a router is best served by a purpose-built OS, that is heavily focused on that task, and restricts the execution of arbitrary software, for obvious reasons. I suppose one could single-handedly customize a general purpose distro for that task, but I'd rather trust a group of dedicated and more talented hackers to do this for me.

That, and I'd rather not manage nftables rules directly. :) Though it would be a great learning experience, so I'll think about it.
It only works if you have more money than the other side, anyway.
> But you can't run the code on your own machine.

iirc GPT-3 itself alone is some 500TB in size. You need a really, really big machine to run LLMs, the first L means Large.

How else? Calls? What if no-one picks up?

Mail? How do ensure it gets to the person needed?

Email is basically the fastest way to spread the knowledge that they are REQUIRED by their providers to shut you down.
It's sort of baffling that people could be angry about the mention that this sort of thing exists when there are school districts that not only racked up gigantic deficits from parents but also refused to allow third parties to pay off those deficits. It's clear that this was never a financial issue for those school districts. They wanted these people to individually suffer for the sin of being poor.
I've find two groups of people on this subject, first one has taken a graduate level stat course and/or ML course, and may have work experience in machine learning/data science. The latter camp is more numerous and did not do those things.

The latter group are far more hyped about ChatGPT et al, despite explanation by the first group.

Don't get me wrong, ChatGPT is very exciting, just not in the way it is frequently portrait to be, in particular, development on this model will not lead to General Intelligence, which is not a data training/stat problem altogether. With how the ML field is shaping up to be today, it doesn't even look to be a Machine Learning problem.

Can you blame them? These companies can steal money from you and pretty much anything else and people will keep using them. Doesn't matter what they do really if there are no major consequences.
Indeed. I am no part of the LGBT+ community, but articles like this make me realize there are emotional elements of the female experience that resonate with me. Certainly imposter syndrome is something I have struggled with and continue to. I had an interaction just this week which brought it up.

All that said, if some feminist idea wasn't intended for me, I am not going to sweat it. Feminism at its core is the idea that people are people regardless of gender and should be treated accordingly.
On iOS, you can autofill passwords from 3rd party browsers (Edge in my case). Is there something similar for Android?
> It means no private ownership of the means of production, which another can of worms.

Coincidentally, worms are an excellent source of protein in this communist, Marxist society. By eating worms instead of beef, it will also help to stop climate change by eliminating the greenhouse gases from cows, thus saving the planet. You will eat ze bugs!
No thanks. I’m happy with my iPhone as is.
Also a fish user, the lack of bash compatibility if required is easily fixed by bash -c, or just dump it into a script with a bash shebang but most simple one liners can easily be tinkered with to make it fish compatible - case in point `for` which just needs an end in most cases
Good question! For most people (myself included) it's a zero-sum game of luck, and a loser if the house takes a cut.

For some people who dedicate their lives to it, it's a game of skill, and an investment when played against lesser mortals.

If you're betting on the players in the game, then it's clearly gambling.

Remap cmd to the normal ctrl key position, then get annoyed when some fn combo keys no longer work on your macbook.
That's my point. It doesn't necessarily mean it is in their best interest - the free market doesn't optimize for people's best interests, it optimizes for people's perception of their best interest (which is usually fine but it's not always the same thing)
My actual browser that I use as a human failed that test so it's probably more on them than anything.

Or I might have some kinda of addin/setting configured from hacking around on something over the years.
To tap U.S. government billions, Tesla must unlock EV chargers
quite clickbaity headline, one would expect author will say you should travel to meet and talk to the strangers/locals to experience local life, while the article suggest to visit your friends/acquaintances instead traveling for the destination, which sounds only a little bit less ignorant (still staying in her social bubble of most likely rich people) than her original approach being typical tourist not talking to anyone

when I traveled on shoestring talking to locals was inevitable, because that's your cheapest experience, you won't rent a car or private minivan, you use the cheapest bus like the locals, you don't dine in fancy restaurant tourist traps and few rich locals, you go to small hole in the wall restaurant where they never seen foreigner and don't have English menu, etc etc.

sadly smartphones destroyed a lot of this experiences with no need to ask locals for directions and various kinds of information you can find online, so you can stay in your bubble without talking to locals and if you limit your smartphone usage even locals find your strange since even they use them

> GPT-3 was trained on 300 billion tokens of text from the internet and books:

> GPT-3 is 175 billion parameters

Total newbie here. What does these two numbers mean?

If running huge number of texts through BPE, we get a array with length of 300B ?

What's the number if we de-dup these tokens? (size of vocab?)

175B parameters means there are somewhat useful 175B floats in the pre-trained neural network?
> Sangay collects about 3,000 yen for his mushrooms. In Bhutan, that's more than an average teacher makes in a day.

Is this supposed to be good or bad?
You’re missing the big picture. The wonderful, open, democratic society that we live in exists only because we secure it against adversaries. China has $1.4B striving, hungry citizens who would love to get a crack at that prosperity. If we let them, they will take it.
Any good discord servers for ruby on rails?
Not really. The layoffs will stop in a few months and the cycle will repeat. Also, startups are still having a hard time hiring good people.

U.S. Catalog of Copyright Entries – Data Extraction and Content Structure
I agree that most people will decide that Olympic sized pools must be big but it doesn't give a layman any clue to just how large a volume they contain in some contexts where you find the comparison used.

For example, I made a comment about a similar comparison in a post here on HN a while ago because their example was simply ridiculous [0]. The author in that article referenced the volume of a large body of water as being "about 240 billion Olympic sized pools". I believe that they could've used almost anything else that most people would identify as being very large as a reference but instead they chose a large swimming pool. If an item is used as a reference the scale of the reference and the object should be chosen such that the reader could quickly understand that while one may be big, the other is bigger by some easily pictured amount.
