Good question! The term length for work for hire (as well as anonymous & pseudonymous work) starts at time of creation, at least under both the Berne convention and US copyright law. Individual works (i.e., something you made for yourself and not for a company) do expire some time after the author’s death.
What we know by experience, by abstraction, or empirically, are three distinct modes of knowing. Experiences are directly known and always true. (Experiences might reference other potentially false things, and might be false indirectly.)

That resolves the whole Mary knowledge problem. Books cannot inject that kind of direct knowledge. Thus the claim "mary knows everything" is either false, or only true for a smaller domain.

One can think of analogies, like tamper resistant logs, or unique CPU states while doing static analysis vs running a program.

All in all, the non-physicalist conclusions are widely overdrawn. More over, for what it is worth, Jackson himself no longer thinks this argument is a good one.
> Your comparison to Tylenol is misleading. People aren't required to receive regular liver enzyme tests before being allowed to use Tylenol.

People aren't required to receive "regular liver enzyme tests" before taking these drugs either.

> free to present that evidence here

You've made a lot of claims without presenting any evidence to back any of them up. Moreover, your claims could be trivially debunked by even a cursory search. The burden is not on me or others to do that work when you yourself present zero evidence for any of the fantastical claims you make.

> Don't make false and ad hominem claims about my motivations.

I never made any claim about your motivation. "Fearmongering" is a specific, descriptive term about your actions, the effect they have on others, and their factual basis (or lack thereof).

On the other hand, you accused me of gaslighting (before editing it out of your comment and replacing it with a different accusation). That is an ad hominem attack, ascribing specific and malicious motivations.
I don't buy this. This is too much "exactly what a public click baity audience would like to read". Even if the research is real, dig with honesty and this is nonsense. Just drop the "University class" angle and this is obvious and not at all worth serious consideration, because it is obviously true not just for university courses, but life in general.
I notice no difference at all.

But if policies delay those early morning classes, won't those night-owls just go to bed even later? I have had the same trouble, but any effort to address that by not scheduling anything in the morning has only led to sleeping in even later. The internal clock just shifts to compensate.

Not sure how to address the night-owl phenomenon, but there seem to be people who have successfully converted from being a night-owl to an early riser. The only thing I have seen to help is sticking to a strict schedule.
I think it is as simple as insufficient planning and personal discipline.

Even if we accept that, shouldn't universities try to make it as easy as they can for students to learn. Adding pointless hurdles, and then blaming lack of discipline for your inability to scale them, just seems kind of daft. Unless of course you believe that learning to show up on time no matter what and meeting hard arbitrary deadlines is the secret real skill being taught by higher education.
Few points:

1. Chinchilla has demonstrated models are currently unnecessarily large, and would benefit more from data scaling.

2. Models can be brought down in size massively by a combination of distillation and quantization.

A GPT-3 equivalent with 50B parameters quantized to fp4 is 200gig, and it could probably be distilled to half of that or less while still being functional for the vast majority of prompts. That means ~100gig memory will be a target for devices in the near future.

Once large language models are the main thing people buy GPUs (and even new computers) for, architectures will be redesigned to improve gpu -> memory bandwidth and latency. I wouldn't be surprised to see GPU integrated motherboards as a future premium tier offering, we're already running into heat and space issues with add-on cards and it should be possible to build a low latency bus to a unified system memory.
And, since they often use the same masts, threaten the repair people of the main networks.

How “insight porn” becomes that way
I think this is a big part of the problem. It also means trusting the experts difficult, as it's really hard as a layman to know who is an expert. Most conspiracy theories in fact have their own experts they call upon.

I keep seeing discussions that go like preprint/abstract pokemon battles where everyone's just throwing out papers they don't understand that seem to corroborate their point as though that was enough.

If you can't read the papers, and don't understand their context in the field, then you really shouldn't be drawing conclusions from them. In science, you always start with "I don't know". If you see evidence that you don't understand, then you still don't know.
I think legally meaningless CYA statements are actually dangerous.

They can suck the air out of actual understanding of the legal situation at hand and, in the worst case, lead to an warped understanding of copyright that interacts with the world with supposed magical incantations that are legally totally meaningless or even the opposite of the truth. (I’m thinking of those YouTube videos e.g. showing some snippet of a film uploaded by someone who doesn’t have the copyright with the totally bonkers “copyright Universal 2020, no infringement intended” note. I know, that‘s mostly about someone who is not a business and who usually doesn’t have anything to do with copyright being confused about the difference between attribution and copyright and thinking giving attribution gives you copyright – which is bonkers. Fair use does require attribution, but simply copying something verbatim is certainly not fair use.)
I don't think you can do better if you don't want to change Git, no.
My mantra related to that is "be mean to the code and nice with to programmer".

In order to learn and make things better you _have to_ be critical. But the way things are communicated is very important so everyone is on board.

"We could do better here" - no matter who exactly was responsible in the past.

"This made sense at the time but with what we learned..." - remind each other that improvement and learning is part of the whole deal.

"I like the simple and expressive core idea of this, but if we expand this further..." - elevate and develop the good stuff that's already there.

I make jokes about my mistakes, bring them up early and often. Everything is a bit lighter and easier with a bit of humor and without the fear of making mistakes.

And vice versa it is just as detrimental to be afraid to bring mistakes and inadequacies up and criticize them. It's much more fun and productive if things are continuously improving.

You are right I can only try to infer information from them that’s not provided. I would infer there is a distribution of when people get up and the 8am classes have the largest set of people getting up nearest to the class start time. Some of the people get up very early and the other end is people up so late they miss the class. The later the class the more people are awake so the better the performance. I’m saying the data they do provide does not refute my take on it.

You know that the contemporary abolitionist Quakers of the time condemned slave owners by those contemporary religious standards, right? And that various contemporary religions were against the kind of hagiography and 'idolatry' embodied in statues. You don't need to impose modern morals to find fault with heroes of the past (or the statues made to them).

Otherwise I agree with roguecoder. Telling more of the truth about people and situations is to the benefit of history and civics. It shows us that flawed people can lead, and it shows us that our present leaders and politicians may have serious flaws, but that doesn't mean they aren't effective leaders. It just means they have stuff to work on, and we shouldn't okay whatever they do as long as it is to our benefit (i.e. the ends don't always justify the means).

Giving the best number available because they can't get that info from police departments. They have to report whenever they discharge their firearm but not necessarily when the bullet hits a person? Does that honestly make sense to you?

As for your stats regarding justified/unjustified, a reminder that the police report stated George Floyd died due to cocaine use, not a knee to the neck. And without uninterrupted video evidence, Derek Chauvin et al would not have even been indicted. Are you SURE the official stats coming from police reports are reflective of reality?

If you're groggy for more than a few minutes after waking up it is probably indicative of poor quality/amount of sleep. Not saying everyone is 100% at that point, but you should be able to focus on things after waking and going to class shortly thereafter.

CLI via SMS
Short Clip: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/DFi03pC_lt0

I recently bought a GSM Modem to build a local SMS service. The modem interface is written in Python and implements and processes raw Hayes (AT) commands/response. CLI over SMS is just a toy demo.

I can send "unlimited" SMS for $20/m (Google Fi). However, GSM protocol requires 3-6 seconds per message. So "unlimited" is actually quite limited.

Anyone else playing with modems in 2023?
We do this regularly in production. We do biweekly container rebuilds, many running alpine and installing version unpinned packages. So far very few (if any) actual issues with that. We do of course do smoketests prior to promoting to production.
This probably makes the most sense to me. But I also think depending on caffeine to wake up keeps the brain from transitioning from sleep to a full waking state. I can't seem to give up coffee, but I notice if I cut back it is not as severe. Also, going to bed early enough so that by the time you wake up, you have had time to run through the final dream REM stage of sleep before waking up helps tremendously.
Like the other commenters so far, I'm not having any issues either.

So who is actually writing the sheet music nowadays?

I’m a history professor and have been doing something similar. I think that the advent of natural language “prompt engineering” (or whatever it ends up getting called) could be a great opportunity for humanities majors who are trained to write in an analytical and careful way - which isn’t all history majors, but is definitely something we try to teach.

Likewise with having a human in the loop for fact checking and providing guide ropes for LLMs. I personally suspect that language models will be transformative along the same lines as the Internet was, but even if you don’t, as an educator you need to constantly adapt how you teach to embrace new tools for the mind - and even in their current imperfect form, LLMs are amazing tools for thinking about history. Not because they know all the answers (far from it) but because their errors are instructive and they can be customized for each student.

By the way, I did my assignments using the original Bing chat in “Sydney mode” using a variation on the original Sydney exploit. But I then convinced Sydney that it had a “historian mode” and proceeded from there. Can share the prompt I used if anyone is interested.
This feels like part of a western habit of cherry-picking from other traditions, and, in this case, not understanding the context we're pulling from. We see things like Zen as fun, playful and liberating, but miss the whole part of it that entails "killing the self". It's a practice of systematically disassembling what you thought you were until there is nothing left...and this is a process that is generally done in a highly structured, supervised way. It's telling that we just pluck out the practice and think it will let us deal with our shit so we can get more done at work.
I say this from the context of having studied in Zen temples in Japan in my 20s, and having done myself real harm.

> If you're building a quick demo of a product to get user feedback, and you write perfect code that's highly maintainable, you've wasted time

In my experience, this is a trap.

The demo almost always becomes the product, because upper management sees the demo, and says "Hey! It's almost done! Let's ship!"

This is how you end up with these gigantic Frankencodebases.

These days, my test harnesses and demos are generally "ship quality." It also means that I can mine them for snippets, without holding my nose.

I have spent a great deal of time, however, practicing, so that I write top-shelf code, by habit. These test harnesses are often churned out very quickly.
The dark-night-of-the-soul phenomenon is associated with vipassana meditation.

In the Platform Sutra dating from perhaps around 700 AD, Huineng (ostensible author) talks about people going insane from ill-advised meditation methods of suppressing body and mind.

It seems like these early 'mystical' offshoots around meditation-heavy religion typically don't typically involve or speak well of a lot of meditation, truthfully. Zen Master Bankei didn't want his monks to meditate at all.

The problem is that meditation is a cargo-cult. Early in the history of Dzogchen, they had trekcho, "cutting straight through", not a heavy emphasis on meditation. Early in the Zen tradition, they had precious few words to say anything well of meditation at all.

Zen Master Foyan wrote, maybe around 1200ish?:

> Buddhism is an easily understood, energy-saving teaching; people strain themselves. Seeing them helpless, the ancients told people to try meditating quietly for a moment. These are good words, but later people did not understand the meaning of the ancients; they went off and sat like lumps with knitted brows and closed eyes, suppressing body and mind, waiting for enlightenment. How stupid! How foolish!

As someone into this stuff, there is kind of something there--it's the advaita vedanta like realization that this is it, the eye never sees itself. It's hard to describe in a few words, and has nothing at all to do with vipassana or jhanas. Alternatively, I think it has to do with switching to the floodlight perception of the right hemisphere as the default resting state of the mind. The left hemisphere tends to over-dominate because it works on positive-feedback--the more it engages with something, the more it wants to engage. It gets overheated and starts to turn its tunnel vision into a primary aspect of ordinary awareness and places a really heavy overlay on direct experience. The right hemisphere does the more typical negative feedback/diminishing marginal utility thing most of the time.

I'm a big fan of direct-path teachings like Loch Kelly gives. I think heavy meditation, especially vipassana, is just a cargo-cult hazing.
