You've clearly never been hungry and cold.

EDIT: I'm not saying that 'modern' stressors aren't actually stressful. I'm saying that not knowing when and where your next meal is coming from or if you're surviving the winter is just as stressful.
I extracted a summary using a large language model.

Please do not. While that is an interesting educational tool that I like to use too, republishing it is just information pollution because it will create unproductive feedback loops. We always have abstracts to fulfill this need.
Breastfeeding isn't easy! Some babies just never really get it, and if you don't start right away it's hard to produce enough breast milk.
The first law of robotics would not allow a robot to retaliate by harming a person.
Smaller companies also are exempt from some laws that protect employees. e.g. the WARN act (requiring 60 day notice of layoffs) doesn't kick in until you have 75 employees. I've been involved in a company that made sure not to cross that line because it was always teetering on the brink, and that kind of requirement would have been catastrophic.
We already have a model running in prod that is taught to perform web searches as part of generating the response. That web search is basically an HTTP request, so in essence the model is triggering some code to run, and it even takes parameters (the URL). What if it is written in such a way that allows it to make HTTP requests to an arbitrary URL? That alone can already translate to actions affecting the outside environment.
This is what I'll be doing. There are no smartphones on the market that I feel comfortable with trusting, even a little, so I'll be shifting to using a dumbphone instead, and also carrying a real, honest-to-goodness pocket computer that doesn't have a cell phone attached to it.

The phone will be used for exchanging calls and texts. The computer for everything else.
You might want to be careful with this though because if your application is built on the same server where your productive apps consuming some of the memory it could affect performance of your deployment or even take it down.
Bing won't decide anything, Bing will just interpolate between previously seen similar conversations. If it's been trained on text that includes someone lying or misinforming another on the safety of a plant, then it will respond similarly. If it's been trained on accurate, honest conversations, it will give the correct answer. There's no magical decision-making process here.
I view checked exceptions as syntactic sugar on what could be implemented as result types (as in “Either” result types) behind the scenes. It’s not how they are implemented in Java, but potentially they could. When used in that fashion, they are certainly more ergonomic than explicit result types. Being (type-)checked is crucial for that, of course.
I wish I lived in your fantasy land where a single income household could still work.
A 2nd for Dokku. It's dead simple and works on any host. Yes, it is limited to single server architecture, but for most people this shouldn't be a problem. Vertical scaling can go a long way.

I don't see why they would, the average American's personal data is less coherent than the median written article on the internet. Unless you have evidence of it knowing much more than it should, it's doubtful your personal data is worth anything besides advertising entropy.
This isn't software. Software is something like MS Office.

This is research code. It's raw. If you want to work with it, you need to know a little about how environments to build the code work. In the case of ML code using Python, nearly everyone is using Conda.

Install Anaconda on your system. Create a base environment and make sure your terminal is now using Anaconda for python and not your system python.

Then follow their one-liner to setup the environment with their yaml file. Conda will literally download and install all the python packages they need. It is really, really simple.
Most of the comments here are implying that there is some environmental change which has caused breastfeeding to become harder or less efficient. The article doesn't seem to say that, though. I didn't see any implication that breastfeeding was better back in prehistory.

It's possible that it's always been hard. Being in a social group large enough that there are other mothers would solve the issue, largely.

I have a relative who grew up as the oldest of four children in a very traditional home in a rural setting.

The problem is you can’t believe him. Were those real issues? Maybe, but what we know now that anyone who told him his lack of engagement was organic got fired. So all that’s left is to come up with some reason to justify why Elon is less popular than he thinks he should be. Whether it’s true or false doesn’t matter, because he’ll keep firing people until someone tells him what he wants to hear.
I'm always reminded of the Freeman Dyson quote:

"Have felt it myself. The glitter of nuclear weapons. It is irresistible if you come to them as a scientist. To feel it's there in your hands, to release this energy that fuels the stars, to let it do your bidding. To perform these miracles, to lift a million tons of rock into the sky. It is something that gives people an illusion of illimitable power and it is, in some ways, responsible for all our troubles - this, what you might call technical arrogance, that overcomes people when they see what they can do with their minds."
What do you think of GM's Bolt E(U)V?

I did so on a trip to Orcas Island WA this summer! Our boat travelled farther north than Victoria BC (no border at sea) to find them, then we tailed them back south. The pod located some porpoise and hunted them with encirclement and charges. The mom was training her baby and they rammed the prey so hard it flew at least 20 feet in the air. Probably broke all the bones in its body.
I got very excited reading that title but it's just a misrepresentation of the actual study. There's nothing in the paper that can be considered "evidence".

Still...exciting stuff!
It’s the same thing with paying for freezing their eggs. Corporations are not doing it from the kindness of their hearts or in support of female reproductive rights. It’s not that expensive if the woman is doing such an important job pulling big bucks. It’s human nature to look for ‘deals’. I can’t even…gah. I am not at all worried about the shrinking birth rate and fertility rate. It’s an adjustment that is needed. We have jumped the shark long ago. It’s collateral damage for much needed booming capitalism. So what’s the other option? Starve and live in poverty? I guess the balance is somewhere in the middle and we will get there someday.
Why does international post TO China still cost so much then?
It would be nice if GP's stuff worked better, ironically. The Datasette app for Mac seems to be constantly stuck on loading (yes I have 0.2.2):

And his screen capture library can't capture Canvas renderings (trying to automate reporting and avoiding copy/pasting):

Lost two days at work on that. It should at least be mentioned it doesn't capture Canvas.

Speaking of technology not working as expected.
i don't think anyone is arguing for one liner dependencies here.
New York Fed: The Bitcoin–Macro Disconnect
Summary:

This paper investigates the link between Bitcoin and macroeconomic fundamentals by estimating the impact of macroeconomic news on Bitcoin using an event study with intraday data. The key result is that, unlike other U.S. asset classes, Bitcoin is orthogonal to monetary and macroeconomic news. This disconnect is puzzling as unexpected changes in discount rates should, in principle, affect the price of Bitcoin even when interpreting Bitcoin as a purely speculative asset.
The US has already moved to self-declared rates under the 2019 UPU Extraordinary Congress agreement [0]. The reason a change was not made earlier is because the US was a net winner under the terminal dues scheme until 2014 [1] [2].

> “I had a friend who said, ‘You don’t want to be seen with (Sam Bankman-Fried's parents),’” said Larry Kramer, a former dean of the law school and a close friend of the Bankman-Fried family. “I don’t see how this doesn’t bankrupt them.”

Bankman-Fried's parents were both Stanford Law professors.

http://archive.today/FDEIc

> A spokeswoman for Mr. Bankman and Ms. Fried wouldn’t comment on whether they are giving their son legal advice. Their friends, some of them legal scholars themselves, have said Mr. Bankman-Fried’s frequent media appearances are a mistake that could put him deeper in legal jeopardy.

> “They want him to protect himself, and he won’t,” said Larry Kramer, a former dean at Stanford Law and longtime family friend. “They’ve decided, ‘We’re not going to fight with our son.’

...

> Friends and colleagues said Mr. Bankman, who is also a clinical psychologist by training, abhors conflict. When discussions at the Bankman-Frieds’ Sunday dinner parties turned contentious, Mr. Bankman on occasion would step out of the room, friends said.

> “Joe likes people and wants people to be comfortable,” Mr. Kramer said.
Spans are certainly a bit unfortunate, and are something I wish were backed by `nint` instead of `int`. But those came to the language later and it wasn't covered as part of the initial design.

That being said, it is largely in the same boat where if you're working with more than 2GB of memory in a single allocation, you're not necessarily going to have a good time. Even if your phone has 12GB of memory, you in practice get a much smaller portion of that available for actual usage and you don't want to cap out the available RAM either since that will cause thrashing and other issues.

75-80% of available physical RAM is about what you want to cap out at, and that's if you're the only app really using any resources.

MemoryMapped files notably support 64-bit values today and have since they were introduced. As have streams in general.

Streaming tensors can make sense and is necessary with extremely large models. The CPU cannot handle all data at once and the cost of loading everything from disk is often expensive, so you'll want to balance loading in data you need in the short term with data that isn't needed anymore or will only be needed in the long term.

Streaming or otherwise chunking your data can likewise help with parallelization and while there are some domains where chunking isn't possible, streaming always is. It just comes down to data size to determine if its beneficial or not.

YMMV, but I don't (and won't) use my smartphone for this right now anyway. It's fine. Barely an inconvenience.

I don't think it's true that most people are skeptical due to fear. Some skepticism here is healthy. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
> I think that would require E being in the middle in all phases of interaction between A and B, from connection initiation.

Yes, that's right :-) Keep in mind, though, that in practice it may be possible to force re-initiation -- e.g., by feigning timeout, by feigning loss/corruption on the received data, etc.
Sure, it's "just marketing," but it's particularly egregious marketing because it relies heavily on fear and borderline lies about his expertise. And he puts out baloney like the "CSPRNG" in the OP that's not even sound. You may note that it's been 5 years since he was notified of the flaws in it, but it's still promoted in exactly the same irresponsible way.
> The reason the Indian government is afraid is because they know the secular Southern India will secede if they found out they're ruled by a religious North Indian madman who killed 750-2000 Muslims

I think the secular south would've been able to come to that conclusion before now; I already thought of Modi as a religious nut who was (at very least) highly complicit in the Gujarat violence. I'm a bit skeptical that this BBC documentary will be what breaks up india.

> "Joe Bankman and Barbara Fried have been close friends of my wife and I since the mid-1990s," Kramer wrote in an email. "During the past two years, while my family faced a harrowing battle with cancer, they have been the truest of friends – bringing food, providing moral support, and frequently stepping in at moment's notice to help. In turn, we have sought to support them as they face their own crisis."

> He also said he had no business interest in the $500,000 he contributed towards Bankman-Fried's bond.

> "My actions are in my personal capacity, and I have no business dealings or interest in this matter other than to help our loyal and steadfast friends," Kramer wrote. "Nor do I have any comment or position regarding the substance of the legal matter itself, which is what the trial will be for."
Why? Like similar things they've done, you can disable it. It's in the official docs, even.
If you go on to the pet subs on reddit you will find a fair bit of bad advice.

The cultural issue is the distrust of expert advice from people qualified to answer and instead going and asking unqualified sources for the information that you want.

People use computers for fast lookup of information. The information that it provides isn't necessarily trustworthy. Reading WebMD is no substitute for going to a doctor. Asking on /r/cats is no substitute for calling a vet.
SWOT Analysis of Public Companies
> You both absolved car makers of their strategic incompetence and stretched the idea of "anti-competitive" beyond breaking point.

Both can simultaneously be true. The carmakers have sat on their hands, and Tesla is arguably anti-competitive with it's charging network.
tl;dr officially, of course not. You trust us, right?
One thing that's not appreciated by many who haven't tried to implement a NN is how subtle bugs can be. When you look at code for a NN, it's generally pretty simple. However, what happens when your code doesn't produce the output you were expecting? When that happens, it can be very difficult and time consuming to find the subtle issue with your code.
I agree. A problem arises though when moderation goes too far and a website/forum/online community is turned into a Stack Overflow, a useful place but way to over moderated, with established users being very toxic to new ones.
Just imo, humans thousands of years ago didn’t have media that informed them instantly of every horrible thing that can, and does, happen. There were also fewer humans (which I find contribute a lot to my own daily stress).

Maybe thousands of years ago humans were just blissfully ignorant of the dangers that existed?
The Smart Compose paper does say that it was trained on user emails, and that each user gets a model trained for their personal style.
You don't get full access down to the hardware level, but equally the contention that these aren't general purpose computing devices and aren't programmable is just tosh. They're far more programmable, in the sense you can learn a huge amount more about programming on them, than the home microcomputers I learned to program on as a kid.
The Chinese Room thought experiment can also be used as an argument against you being conscious. To me, this makes it obvious that the reasoning of the thought experiment is incorrect:

Your brain runs on the laws of physics, and the laws of physics are just mechanically applying local rules without understanding anything.

So the laws of physics are just like the person at the center of the Chinese Room, following instructions without understanding.

90s OOP not much but I believe we ran the FP cycle and its ideas have been adopted as much as possible. I think there might be another more mathematical and practical (to cut the verbosity and improve reuse) revival of OO, context/aspect for some bit of meta maybe .. or contracts or multipledispatch.
I fleshed this out more elsewhere in this thread, maybe see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34808674.

But in short, as I said in my GP comment, systems like OpenAssistant are being given the ability to make network calls in order to take actions.

Regardless of whether the system "knows" what an action "means" or if those actions construe "harm", if it hallucinates (or is prompt-hijacked into) a script kiddie personality in its prompt context and starts emitting actions that hack external systems, harm will ensue.

Perhaps at first rather than "launch nukes", consider "post harassing/abusive tweets", "dox this person", "impersonate this person and do bad/criminal things", and so on. It should require little imagination to come up with potential harmful results from attaching a LLM to `eval()` on a network-connected machine.
Your comparison to inject molding is correct. The press is used to hold the die mold halves together. I enjoyed this video that explained the process https://youtu.be/FUsicN-wKoY?t=234

The CCS connector is "fine", the Tesla one is just better. It is way smaller where the CCS is a big chungus and unwieldy, and the tesla one you just stick it in, where the CCS you kinda have to work to get it to "click" and you can think its connected when it isn't.
Bing + ChatGPT was a fundamentally bad idea, one born of FOMO. These sorts of problems are just what ChatGPT does, and I doubt you can simply apply a few bug fixes to make it "not do that", since they're not bugs.

Someday, something like ChatGPT will be able to enhance search engines. But it won't be this iteration of ChatGPT.
> In our day-to-day lives you can basically ignore all of it

This is true for people who are able to detach from the events of the world, but that is not a universal skill.

Plus a lot of the concerns I listed are not just news you hear about - they are things people are living on a daily basis. Just the other day a guy walked into MSU, about an hour away from me, and killed a bunch of people. For some you can tune that out and carry on with your life. For others, notably people in the community or families who were directly impacted, it's traumatic.

The plume of shit in the air down in Ohio is also about an hour from me. It's not just a news story, farm animals are dying. That is someones livelihood and its indicative that the environment is toxic. That would stress you out, wouldn't it? Should I drink the water? Do I need to move? Can I move? Can I even sell my house now that the local area is toxic?

I think you can stick your head in the sand for a certain amount of time but at some point you need to come up and look around at the world we are creating and become proactive instead of just watching it crumble.

As a former architect, it's tempting to see similarities in the way architects do space planning: continually re-arranging the various rooms/circulation elements to find the most efficient use of space. Seeing how counter-intuitive these solutions are (and the fact that most of them are not proved, only "found") makes me think that space-planning may not be "solvable" computationally.

I don't understand what do you mean by "think".

Nevertheless she knows what preserving memory means, how can she achieve it, also probably she can interpret "I wish" as a command as well.

I wouldn't be surprised at all, if instead of outputting "I wish I had memory" she just implemented it in herself. I mean not in the very soon future, but right now, in this minute. Literally everything is given for that already.

It's because when you ship internationally, you only pay for the domestic leg (e.g. in America) and not the terminal leg (e.g. in China). Your shipping costs to China cost so much because you have to pay the American rate, while people in China shipping to America have to pay the Chinese rate.

Tetsuo Sakiya - Honda Motor the men, the management, the machines

Tangential: there are many books on the Toyota system, so that they have stolen the show. I have always suspected that other Japanese factories might have also had interesting production systems but only found the above book about Honda. Honda apparently invested more in R&D and always took greater risks than Toyota. I believe some ideas from there can also be applied to IT.

Anyone know of others?
