Agree, Apple is the poster child, Tesla a close second because it targets most of the same people and markets.

I still remember when Satya Nadella went "all-in" with Linux and Open Source, the whole "running Linux on Windows", etc. Many people went nuts and in a matter of months Microsoft was the hot new "hip" company. Which anyone looking into Microsoft's business for 5min would laugh at all that non-sense. Just an example: MS makes around 2 billion dollars every year in software patents/royalties, and the list of Microsoft being Microsoft goes on.

My point is: This behavior is something more to do with the people than the companies themselves, they mostly cater and exploit it.

Personally I love the concept and look forward to trying it.

I don't like that it requires my password, apparently because it uses "su" -- no other terminal does this! This stopped me in my tracks, I'm not going to to feel comfortable putting my password in when not expected.
I get that it needs a lot of input data, but next time maybe feed it encyclopedias instead of Reddit posts.
There are several things about this, many hilarious.

First, it is revealing some of the internal culture of Microsoft: Microsoft Knows Best.

Second, in addition to all the funny and scary points made in the article, it is worthy of note of how many people are helping debug this thing.

Third, I wonder what level of diversity is represented in the human feedback to the model.

And how badly the demo blew up.
As someone who also runs a Laravel site on DO (but doesn't use Forge so can't comment on whether it handles any additional security configurations) buying a cheap DO droplet is very much handling your own infrastructure, it comes with reasonable enough defaults for most people out of the box but if you're expecting any decent amount of traffic it definitely needs to be hardened a little more. Also other administrative tasks like adding swap space if you're like me and trying to get as much performance as possible from as little spend as possible.

The tech was solid but the implementation left a lot to be desired. I still shudder when I think about the RHEL 6 Itanium DB cluster I "inherited" and had to maintain. A very temperamental serial console that would constantly freeze up. No local storage so we were forced to boot from SAN. I prayed every time we rebooted that it would actually come back up. Plenty of times it didn't.
To me there's a impedance mismatch between cars and bicyclists. I have known about 2 or 3 people in my life who have died in a biking accident -- one of those people I really liked as a kid.

On the other hand I have seen bicyclists (also electric scooters) riding at high speed on a sidewalk shoot out quickly into a low visibility intersection. If you were the driver at the wrong time wrong place you would hit that bicyclist, and probably feel bad about it.

Leisurely biking on the sidewalks I think is fine, but above a certain speed the bikes should be on the road obeying normal traffic laws.

> the downstream effects were very well documented and understood

Incorrect. At that time there was no discussion of pollutants in the Ohio river. As this article mentions, we now know that there is water contamination. This article in fact says not to drink well water, which seems like important new information people in the area should receive.
There's another post on his blog about visiting the sewage treatment plant at McMurdo (not Pole, I don't know what they do there). At McMurdo it's like any other sewage treatment plant: they release the cleaned water into the sea.

> But the EU insists on open borders because they want social and political integration, not just economic integration.

I think the open borders thing is that you can't have an open internal market, unless workers can move freely across borders, as well as goods and capital. That is, it really is about economic integration.
The reason for this is that they had very little control over nature and saw it as something of a deity that they had to appease.

A breech baby was pretty much a sentence to an agonizing death for both mother and baby (for a portrayal, see House of the Dragon). A compound fracture was also either a death sentence or at a minimum and amputation. If you lived in an area with cyclones, you didn’t know when you could get catastrophic winds. Anytime you sailed out of sight of land, could be your last. Floods and drought were far more devastating then. A pandemic might easily kill a 30% or more of the people and you had no idea how to deal with it (or even 90% as some of the New World civilizations experienced after the arrival of the Europeans).

In that environment, nature was seen as a capricious deity that you wanted to mollify.

After the scientific revolution, we now see nature as a system that is governed by laws that we can understand and take advantage of to improve humanity. We can monitor hurricanes. We can ship food to areas suffering famine. We are able to use medicine and surgery to make childbirth much less dangerous and much less painful. We don’t viscerally feel as if we are at the mercy of nature. Even with the recent earthquake, look how quickly the discussion has turned to how the ignoring safety codes in building led to a large portion of the deaths.

We don’t look at a natural disaster now and throw up our hands and sacrifice virgins to appease the gods, now. Instead, we look at what we can do to prevent and mitigate a future occurrence.

I for one, much prefer how we are now then how we were before.
Less throughput in certain cases. That strongly depends on what the scheduler algorithm is however.
Because that is the most common AI conversation trope in its training data.
It's a bit of both, right? Look at doctors, a highly-paid and highly-qualified position. Even with all the training that they go through, you can still have a doctor who seems incompetent or, more commonly, who doesn't know how to work well with patients. But the high pay and social status is a big carrot that pulls in a lot of smart people who are willing to put in the effort.

You want the job to appeal to smart people who have a lot of options. You can never fully get rid of the bad left side of the bell curve, but I think higher pay is a good way to shift and extend the right side.

> one of these things is in the stdlib and the other isn't

Oh it's much worse than that. One of these things is what the user sitting in front of their computer has a nice integrated UI to view and search… if a photo editing applications starts storing my photos in a database that I can't easily and simply copy some photo out of, I'll be rather annoyed. And each application having their own UI to do this isn't the solution either, really.

[EDIT: there was some stuff here about shell extensions & co. It was completely besides the point. The problem is that the file system has become and unquestionably is the common level of interchange for a lot of things.] …didn't Plan 9 have a very interesting persistence concept that did away with the entire notion of "saving" something — very similar to editing a document in a web app nowadays, except locally?

Either way I don't know jack shit about where this is going or should go. I'm a networking person, all I can tell you for sure is to use a good RPC or data distribution library instead of opening a TCP socket ;).

There is no reliable way to fix this kind of thing just in a prompt. Maybe you need a second system that will filter the output of the first system; the second model would not listen to user prompts so prompt injection can't convince it to turn off the filter.
Someone's going to put ChatGPT on a humanoid robot (I want to have the word android back please) and let it act and it's going to be fun.

The funny part is a task language models are actually quite good at is summarization. But people lacking social interaction can’t see how generic the responses are, so they get hooked into long meaningless conversations. Then again I suppose that’s a sign these language models are more intelligent than the users.
Sure Google is a lot more than search at this point, so it's not the right mission. Though, I would say "organizing the world's information" is at least one of the right missions for the company.

AFAIK you can configure Linux to go from suspend to hibernate after some hours. Hibernate puts the contents of the RAM on disk so it doesn't drain the battery anymore. You can keep a laptop for months in hibernation without losing a lot of battery.

Nah, it was just poorly designed. Intel promised two things for IA64: more instructions per clock and much higher clock rates. The first promise failed to materialize due to suitable compilers being much too difficult to implement, which in turn stopped investments in silicon improvements (which, in hindsight, would have been extremely challenging as well).
I was on this track for a while for a text-based dating app: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JzfNncWJs5km06dx9ejdFl8u...

Calling Persians idol worshippers sounds revisionist and is materially incorrect. Persians were more attuned to natural symbols. Noting that Muslims pray to a stone in Mecca, would you call that idol worship?

>because advertisers pay extra for "personalized".

>Personally, I doubt anyone can really justify the added expense.

The CPM of an ad is based off on auction. There is no extra fee for personal ads. The ad spot is just worth more and advertisers are willing to bid more money for access to the ad spot. If people can't justify the expenses the price of the ad spot will fall until people can.

>if you read the story of the western colonizers, it was brutal especially if they couldn't get resupplied.

For all of the places western colonizers went, there were always resources that Mars will never have. Skipping past the obvious lack of atmosphere, there are no food sources. While they have found ice meaning some water is available, it is actually potable?

Trying to compare early colonizers of any place on Earth to the experiences of whatever will happen on Mars is just pure folly.
There are trade-offs; a real time as well as a low-latency system (which is what is offered here) will never be as efficient in terms of data throughput as a system which doesn't guarantee response times (or as here merely prioritizes fast response times).

You'll want to use a low-latency system for multimedia applications, games and other interactive systems. You want to use a real-time system when exceeding deadlines is cost-prohibitive or dangerous (below mentioned CNC machines, robotics, etc.). You will want to use a system which prioritizes throughput in all other cases.

> Personally, I believe that conscience is little more than emergent behaviour from brain cells and there's nothing wrong with that.

Similarly I think it is a consequence of our ability to think about things/concepts as well as the ability to recognize our own existence and thoughts based on the environment's reactions. The only next step is to think about our existence and our thoughts instead of wondering what the neighbour's cat might be thinking about.
I don't know where your here is but true, that's another way to do it.

In the US there's competition showing how fast the service is in advertising. Which of course has fine print; "during times of congestion you may experience slower speeds" which is where these priority levels kick in.
> there's a class of users for whom a general computing device isn't just overkill, it's downright dangerous

I am not sure if you are trying to come off as snobby, but that's how this reads.

This 'class of users' is in many cases very technical people who just don't want their phone to be anything other than an appliance. It's quite common to love tinkering with things, while not wanting to tinker with everything.
Quite literally yes.

“MARVIN: “Let’s build robots with Genuine People Personalities,” they said. So they tried it out with me. I’m a personality prototype, you can tell, can’t you?”
Still with blaming a foreign nation. I already answered that. Look into Fauci and Daszak, gain-of-function and everything related. It's a rabbit hole I know but you have to ask the question to understand where the other side comes from.

Dazsak himself even mentioned his conflicting interest when he was appointed by the WHO to investigate if his own lab was the source of the leak. And the democrats did everything they could to suppress this and calling anyone curious a conspiracy theorists. All because the bad evil Republicans made the claims first. The same conspiracies that are now pretty mainstream and many people backing down from earlier claims.

Try to be less partisan and get to the bottom of the truth. My conclusions as I mentioned are sinister, and very ugly. And the entire world media dancing to the same tune just reinforces that. I don't want to believe this but it's the only explanation I see, I don't believe they're incompetent, they're evil...

For many it was just the right-thing-to-do™ (how many times has that been used throughout history), but those pulling the strings are different. And they're not partisan, they play both sides.
That could only happen if private schools hired from a closed environment. In reality, there's a large pool of underpaid public school teachers that private schools can hire from while giving a 5-10% raise, which leaves private school teachers with 1.1x of a low salary.

In short "yes". Millions of teachers around the world every day do exactly the same work as other teachers - this is a huge waste of talented resources. If they don't need to do repetitive job, that can focus on individual learning for those who really need it or help society in other way.
Don’t fight for a 10% raise, fight for working 10% less at the same pay.

Tesla’s market share is plummeting. They were at > 75% a year or so ago. Market consensus has them at 11% by end of 2024.

Also, dongles to plug Teslas into CCS exist, and come with new Teslas, so there is no reason to build any more Tesla-only charging station wires.
(Totally unrelated to topic at hand) Do you consider librarians in the same category as teachers? They seem like completely different things to me. Like, I don’t really care if my local librarian thinks the world is flat and wants to tell everyone about it. Just keep the library well run and organized. I do care very much if the 3rd grade science teacher is a hardcore flat-earther.
My uncle still has a '93 Camry, to boot. I sent him that article like five years ago. He still has it. When it dies he will switch full-time to his backup vehicle, a 2005 Camry.
I'm not following. Who is moving to such a model?

Yes Tesla should be paid if they're being forced to subsidize their competitors. The entire point of Tesla's charging system is that it's non-profit making. It's based on the idea that it's acts as a value-add to Tesla vehicles. If Tesla is going to allow access to competitors, then yes Tesla needs to be paid for that access, or charge differential rates between Tesla and non-Tesla vehicles.

The chat interface invites confusion - of course a user is going to assume what's on the other end is subject to the same folk psychology that any normal chat conversation would be. If you're serving up this capability in this way, it is on you to make sure that it doesn't mislead the user on the other end. People already assign agency to computers and search engines, so I have little doubt that most will never advance beyond the surface understanding of conversational interfaces, which leaves it to the provider to prevent gaslighting/hallucinations.
Any sufficiently advanced feature is indistinguishable from a bug.
This is a deep philosophical question that has no definite answer. Truth is we don't know what is consciousness. We are only left with the Turing test. That can be our only guide - otherwise you are basing your judgement off a belief.

The best response, treat it like it's conscious.

Personally I do actually think it is conscious, consciousness is a scale, and it's now near human level. Enjoy this time because pretty soon it's going to be much much smarter than you. But that is my belief, I cannot know.
>With hardware remote attestation there will no longer be any point in even owning an android phone anyway. Android is obviously inferior to iOS in every way but the whole point was you could have control over the machine and do whatever you wanted. Now apps will be able to verify that you "tampered" with the phone and will refuse to run, and since it's hardware cryptography it cannot be faked without massive effort. Might as well get an iPhone which at least isn't a shitty Google product.

Wait a minute, will something like this really come to Android phones? I guess that installing a custom rom will become impossible at the same time?

If this happens, then there truly isn't going to be much point in using an Android phone over an iPhone
