With long-running sessions, it helps to tell it to repeat or at least summarize the original prompt every now and then. You can even automate it - in the original prompt, tell it to tack it onto every response.

Same thing goes for any multi-step task that requires memory - make it dump the complete "mental state" after every step.

I'm not sure how Apple does it, but when I was working in manufacturing we were not told what steps to use or given finished samples by the customer.

In general, there is a quote phase before the contract being awarded. In this phase, you're given a blueprint / shop drawing with tolerances, 3D model, and any other specifications that need to be satisfied (e.g., material type, surface finish). If anything is missing, you can submit a request to get the engineering team to update the documents. If you give someone a finished part, it misses so much of the information that's necessary to check the parts. There is a saying, "build to print" because the print contains the key info and is including in the contracts.

It's up to you to determine how to produce the widget. You put forth your quote based on your costs, the material costs you can get, and you factor in your production yield.

The article and the Financial Times article they are citing are light on details. It's not clear if this is an issue with production, inspection, or what exactly is going on.

Usually there are some ramp up issues with launching a new process or production line, so challenges are expected. But 50% rejection is huge. I assume the "casings" being referred to are the back housing / surface of the phone, which is highly cosmetic. If that's the case, the rejection could be for cosmetic issues. It could be related to not hitting the correct tolerances. There are lots of reasons, but the article doesn't really give these details. It's also not clear if every second part is being rejected or if the first half of the batch is rejected or if there are other patterns to the rejections. Could be issues with setup, operation, inspection, or material handling.

It’s not more environmentally destructive than any of the alternatives, quite the opposite actually. And it’s the most efficient way to transport cargo and passengers across land.
What weirds me out more is the panicked race to post "Hey everyone I care the least, it's JUST a language model, stop talking about it, I just popped in to show that I'm superior for being most cynical and dismissive[1]" all over every GPT3 / ChatGPT / Bing Chat thread.

Prove it? Or just desperate to convince yourself?

[1] I'm sure there's a Paul Graham essay about it from the olden days, about how showing off how cool you are in High School requires you to be dismissive of everything, but I can't find it. Also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulIOrQasR18 (nsfw words, Jon Lajoie).
how much power do you need? you can buy arm, either sbc, if you don't need performance at all, or apple mini, if you do
Keep in mind the prices are changing quickly as of late. AMD brought out the 7700, 7900, and 7950 (non-x) that are cheaper, generate less heat, and include a fan. There's also been pretty heavy discounts on the 7700x/7900x/7950x AMD chips as well. DDR5 and Motherboard prices for the am5 chips are dropping as well. Microcenter is even including 8GB free with a CPU purchase. The price/perf of the AM5 platform has changes quite a bit in the last month.

Intel does win some benchmarks, but often at substantially higher power consumption. The AMD chips run cooler and even significantly reducing the TDP down to 65 watts often has a single digit percentage slow down.
I mean, what could go wrong?
I don't think that most of the people who equate hate speech with violence are literally requesting assualt charges be brought. They are calling for boycotts and de-platforming, both of which fall well within the bounds of the "marketplace of ideas." While there is indeed no right to not be offended, there is also no right to be listened to, and no right to artificially amplify your speech on someone else's dime. We live in a world where the mechanisms of mass communication are held in private hands---there is no digital public square, regardless of what techno-libertarians might have you believe. So there are speech winners and there are speech losers, chosen generally by capital. If you want to change that and have a public platform, you'll have to consider the digital equivalent of communism. Until then, you'll have to live with mass suppression of speech just as you live with mass amplification of it. They are two sides of the same coin.
Then he should be banned from using the web. Any interaction with an ssl website is an encrypted messaging application. You might not be able to say much, and your data is almost definitely not secure, but it is def encrypted, and sending messages, and usually an application (excluding I guess static websites on https, which I guess the resolver is still an application? But have to draw the line somewhere, windows explorer accessing a bitlocker drive could be deemed an "encrypted messaging application"...
> Why is ransomware still a problem? Is it that difficult to make off-site backups every hour?

Because unless you actually restore your system from backups regularly, you don't actually have backups.

Setting up a system wherein you restore from backups regularly requires, time, effort and money. None of which you are likely to receive for a "mere backup system".
The kinds of censorship that really bothers me is when people like Ron deSantis use the power of the state to force people like university professors to say specific things and muzzle them from saying other things. That's actual government censorship.
Meta's current gen and upcoming stuff out of their R&D lab is pretty impressive, but much like what Apple is rumored to be putting into their headset, it is SO expensive that they're limited to large corporations/governments with deep pockets who are also willing to develop a use-case for the technology.

I guess my point is: Yes, this stuff is better than Microsoft's Hololens. However, it is also a product targeting the same niche market, and the Hololens hasn't really been successful. Turns out most organizations don't want to buy expensive headsets to then develop most of the key software themselves when any other alternative exists.

A lot of people have faith that anything Apple will release will just be successful by the virtue of the Apple-y-ness of it. But realistically how big do you think the market for a $2-3K headset is? Are you going to buy one? I'm certainly not.

The Quest 2 ($400) is maybe near the current best case scenario in terms of cost-to-user experience ratio. Anything better has huge diminishing returns, and we'll likely be waiting a few years minimum until technology has advanced enough to be affordable. We know, today, what it will look like since everyone's R&D lab has produced a few demos of it, but we also know, today, what it would cost to put into your hands.
> This is one take, but I would like to emphasize that you can also interpret this as a terrifying confirmation that current-gen AI is not safe, and is not aligned to human interests, and if we grant these systems too much power, they could do serious harm.

Current-gen humans are not safe, not aligned to parents' interests, and if we grant them too much power they can do serious harm. We keep making them and connecting them to the internet!

> And it's based on class and social networks, not the color of your skin

People within your socioeconomic class can be racist towards you and upper social mobility can be more difficult based on the color of your skin.

This statement is laughably false. Yes as you get richer, skin color matters less, but it still does. You can just look at the games that rich black republicans have to play to stay in the club.

The following is a bit of a rant so go ahead and ignore it if you wish: It is a bit wild to me how common sentiments like this are on hacker news, when so many people claim to be rationalist types. Then again, a group of mostly white people claiming systematic racism is gone in their so-called merit-based hierarchy should be expected.
One of the founders here. I totally see where you’re coming from. If you come from a world where log equals text, then using log for anything else seems strange.

In robotics and autonomy, “log” is commonly used for e.g. sensor data or planning decisions as well. But even outside those fields it isn’t uncommon to talk about logging metrics for instance.

Still, no metaphor is perfect and we have spent a lot of time discussing what word to use. “Record” gives me the sense that the main purpose is to save the data for later. Rerun is also about the live use case. There words like “stream” or “send” could work perhaps.

In the end we decided on “log” because it is short, is already used in a similar way in some of the areas we hope Rerun will be used, and because data can either be stored on disk and/or be streamed/uploaded somewhere (like with regular text logs).
Lawyer here, and this definitely strikes me as one of a surprising number topics in which, the law has for some time, already a very effective and useful way to get at this concept.

Sure, speech can be harmful and hurtful, to the point that someone should get punished for it. But the law has generally done very good job of reminding us that this tends to be a VERY NARROW possibility, i.e. the harm has to be very specific and directed and measurable.
Then maybe marketing it alongside a search engine is a bad idea?
> I remembered that law students pay tuition

Maybe. There's a lot of scholarship money available at elite law schools. For those paying something close to sticker price, Big Law summer associates make good money.
I don't know if this is true all the time. I think knowingly sending rape threats to rape victims is pretty violent behavior. I think knowingly trying to trigger someone into an eating disorder relapse or coercing someone into suicide are heinous things that fall into violence. I think there is a line where speech can be violent or said with the intent to harm someone the same as a punch is.

This is one of the problems with discussing the lab leak hypothesis is that it refers to two very different theories: accidental vs deliberate leak.

I was primarily referring to the accidental version because deliberate is way less believable than accidental.

> Ben’s got it just right. These things are terrible at the knowledge search problems they’re currently being hyped for. But they’re amazing as a combination of conversational partner and text adventure.

I don't think that's exactly right. They really are good for searching for certain kinds of information, you just have to adapt to treating your search box as an immensely well-educated conversational partner (who sometimes hallucinates) rather than google search.
And it doesn't need to be some academic definition of intelligent to do great harm (or good).
> few liberal-minded commentators seemed eager to say Rushdie was entirely without fault

This does not match my recollection. As I recall things, Rushdie was vigorously defended by the left, which at the time quite liked the idea of freedom of speech. At least in the UK, can't speak for anywhere else.

One thing I find sort of surprising about this Bing AI search thing is that siri already does what “Sydney” purports to do really well more or less by either summarising available information or by showing me some search results if it’s not confident.

I regularly ask my watch questions and get correct answers rather than just a page of search results, albeit about relatively deterministic queetions, but something tells me slow n steady wins the race here.

I’m betting that Siri quietly overtakes these farcical attempts at AI search.
The dude is under several investigations, including a criminal one. I'm pretty certain one of them mandates the monitoring of his internet use.

If you know what you're doing, that is definitely an option. But self-hosting is not something I would recommend to the general public. I wouldn't even recommend it to the average person in IT to be honest. If the people at LastPass already manage to screw up the configuration so many times (and they really ought to know better than 99.99% of the population by now), then you can guess how safe it would be íf the average Joe sets something like that up.
From the WSJ:

Mr. Kramer served as a professor and dean at Stanford Law School from 2004 to 2012, according to an online biography. He is currently president of the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, which, according to its website, makes efforts to respond to “pressing and timely problems, such as challenges related to democracy and cybersecurity.”[1]

This individual and his companies defrauded people and then used their stolen money to make donations to politicians in order to buy influence. Doesn't that exactly describe "pressing and timely problems related to democracy"?

> and there were already better, functional models of how to structure things out there.

Even today, no file sandboxing solution I'm aware of really properly handles more complex file formats that don't consist of a single atomic file.

Only macOS goes beyond the simple "allow the user to pick a single file or directory and that's that" model, and even then according to the documentation I found it only handles simple sidecar files that only differ in the file extension from the main file, but still breaks down for anything more complicated than that.
You can’t be serious. After the clusterfuck of brexit other countries will be very, very careful even thinking about leaving. And if some country decides to leave the union it wont be over a inconsequential fine and lawsuit.
By that logic, every experiment ever conducted is consistent with discrete theories as well.

Experiments that try to distinguish the fine structure of spacetime haven't really been a focus, and are probably impossible in a lab environment. Some studies of distant gamma ray bursts place some limits on some discrete theories, but those limits don't apply to covariant discrete theories that preserve other symmetries like the one I posted above.

It's not really actionable for most comics makers, because there isn't a standard toolchain to point to, other than "learn web technologies, mash them into shape, pray it doesn't break". Splitting up the comic into various assets for panel layouts, lettering, etc all comes at a cost in terms of software dependencies.

The advantage of sticking to a traditional "plain image" with scrolling or pages is that the information is consistent, easy to parse, and robust to technical changes. The work of reformatting can be delegated to a sufficiently smart client app. We have OCR, we can definitely build a panel recognizer.
Has it? I see censorship as being extremely successful nowadays. It seems to keep the world together nowadays. Imagine we’d publish everything we know, many people would oppose.

I think knowingly sending rape threats to rape victims is pretty violent behavior

Compared to the actual act of rape? No. That kind of thinking just devalues the victim.

That said, specific threats aren't normally examples of protected speech. Extreme cases make bad law.

If you look at the breakdown of the Model Y with the casted front end and back end by Munroe on Youtube it's fairly modular, with a front end cast and back end cast both bolted to the battery pack in the middle, and the top of the car lowered onto the base. If one of these casts were damaged in an accident but the rest of the car was OK, it might make more sense to just replace the entire front end or back end cast with a new one.

I believe the above post was mostly in jest but just to clarify - to qualify for any sort of lighter sentencing you'd need to demonstrate a far more impactful intellectual disability.

Hello -- Rerun developer here. You are correct on both counts. The terminology used in some places is a bit inconsistent, and "recording" is very much the right concept to apply to the data that Rerun captures.

However, one of the reasons we tend to think of our APIs as being "logging" like is that much like other console-logging libraries, the primary purpose is to get data out of your program and into a user-observable form. Also similar to other logging libraries, the APIs are intended to have no side affects on your program so they can actually be disabled with a function call or by setting an environment variable in situations where you don't need the additional context for debugging or inspection.

I appreciate the feedback though and will make sure to take a pass on the docs to see if I can make the relationship and intent a bit more clear.

We're always having this same rehashed argument over and over again on HN. "My [CPU manufacturer] grew by 100% this year." Market share is an absolute percentage, so you should talk about it using absolutes. It doesn't make sense to talk about relative increases unless we're talking only about AMD revenue without respect to the overall market.
The alternative is a moral/philosophical claim that there are no situations where dealing with organised crime is acceptable.

This is patently absurd, as there exists not only situations where its reasonable but an imperative to deal with organised crime.

Sorry, I should have made it clear that I was referring only to an average two-person home's energy use for creating hot water monthly.
Cumulative over what timespan?
The 7700/7900/7950 have a 65 watt TDP, idle much lower, and can be underclocked if you want lower. I certainly wouldn't consider 65 watts as "power hungry as heck".

Did you by chance read an Intel i9 review? Yes, Intel's going crazy on the power front trying to match the AMD performance, which of course lead to AMD pushing it a bit as well. But the new non-X AMD CPUs are quite power efficient for the performance.

If that's still to much the M2 or M2 Pro in a mac mini is rather efficient on power and still performance quite well.

It still takes up more space and creates more complications on the car. Look at how much space J1772 + CHAdeMO takes up on a car and compare that to CCS.

vs

https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/PYwkW/s3/european-ccs-type...

Which is a more compact solution to a whole charging system on the car?

For CCS vs CHAdeMO, I'd take CCS every time. I don't want to have two completely separate plugs, I'd prefer just one plug. If you can't look at these two pictures above and understand what I'm talking about, I don't know what to tell you.

I've plugged in Teslas. I've plugged in CCS. I've handled CHAdeMO cables, which were roughly the same size and flexibility as the CCS ones on the stalls. I do agree Tesla connectors were the easiest to work with, but Tesla continuing to put it behind their patent pledge means nobody else is going to really use it. I do wish they would have actually opened it up or licensed it under some normal kind of licensing terms, but they didn't, so we're left with the standard the rest of the market came up with.

As for CCS being different in the US vs Europe, I guess I'll have an issue if I drive my EV across the Atlantic Ocean. I'm not planning on making that road trip anytime soon, so I don't think that'll be an issue for me. If I move to Europe, I'd probably just sell my car and buy something over there rather than deal with import duties and getting it compliant to EU standards and what not, and vice-versa.
