Seems like because LLM is the latest hot topic, that all AI=Human arguments right now are about LLM. Think that is exactly moving the goal post. "Latest greatest AI thing comes out, everyone 'but because of xyz that isn't human". The argument isn't about LLM, its about ALL related AI/Machine learning techniques. They are all chipping away at one aspect or another, and eventually they'll all be put together and completely mimic a human, and nobody will have any ground to stand on to argue that humans have any special difference that keeps them unique.

Just yesterday, when discussing our company's grades, someone joked that the difference between a junior and a senior developer is that a junior developer should learn to know when to use OOP/abstractions while a senior developer should learn to recognize when OOP/abstractions are to be avoided.
Errr, you said "accepted everywhere".

But now that you point out "developing countries", that does seem more likely. :)

US universities are pursuing fairness the wrong way
Just want to back the most upvoted comment by highlighting how rare 6 figure jobs are in most areas of Europe. For example, $65k / year puts you in top 5% highest paid workers (P95) in France.

Capital flows like water in a river in the richest areas of the US, whereas the EU is more like a swamp. You can save thousands / month while many of your coworkers struggle to make ends meet.
It's still a continuum, not distinct categories. People can't deal with that, and given the fact that there is really zero point talking about this continuum (it's not even in job titles) I would say we should just ditch the term "systems programming" entirely.
That's nice but corporate greed and exec compensation is the cause of the US wealth divide not tech workers getting paid market value.
It's currently 2048 tokens. But like GPT-3, that can be improved in the future.
I've seen Atlas get some flack from people who expected it to be an all-in-one business product, and then got bitten when it turns out there are more responsibilities/costs/etc that come along with running a business. I think if you take it as an automation product it's fine.

Not sure if this is what was being referred to above though.

How did the other Tesla driver get into Randev's car? Did the other Tesla driver's app also have a glitch?

This is an example of a coherent and fairly complete issue description. It may seem like fluff in this case to rephrase the original request, but it makes sense as a blanket policy. It allows the support person to repeat the request with the official terminology and give the customer a chance to say "no, that's not what I meant" before you get 10 emails deep.

Consider that a lot of the support requests come as stream of consciousness posts with typos and no punctuation, written quickly and in anger. This issue could've been "new laptip does not take password. Its correct many times, want my many back" (I'm not joking, I've seen worse) - rephrasing and asking for the missing details can be super helpful there.

See a random selection from the first page of posts for why you'd want to verify you understood the customer: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Software-and-How-To-Q... , https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Software-and-How-To-Q... , https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Software-and-How-To-Q...

Applying this practice everywhere instead of "where needed" reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointing_and_calling

Yeah, not a fan of atomising code into so many classes as Clean Code recommends, the mental load is higher and its a lot harder to see what's happening.

And thata before considering the great analysis of the examples in this book from a few years ago, that showed that they don't conform to the clean code philosophy at all.

Lucky for me, I bought this and procrastinated so long about reading it, I've since found out it's not good, so I saved some time.
I had a similar problem with Belkin Wemo smart plugs. They didn’t reject a specific letter but some passwords just didn’t work so I had to create a separate SSID and then trial and error a password that would work. Never figured out what the issue was.
Got it. Businesses heavily employing a B2C marketing strategy should employ Python, Java and JavaScript programmers, while the B2B equivalents should use C and C++. Very useful to be able to make these decisions on a higher level, so that programmers don't need to argue about which tools would be well suited for a particular product. Allowing sales to make these decisions for us will improve our time to market.

I'm not going to link to the Byford Dolphin incident, because it would need a [TW] and I hate that shit, so you can just google it yourself. The 30-second rundown is that on the surface divers live in a very strong steel tank pressurised to the same degree as they would be on the seabed, so maybe make sure you close the door properly.
I've been on ranting about all this since smartphones really started and nobody ever took me (and still doesnt) seriously in my inner circles. People like their social media like they like tbeir alcohol.

You need two 3090s or 4090s to fit 65B even in 4bit. It's a big one.

That said, if you're fine with slower speeds then two P40s could get the job done for $150 each. (Not sure how much slower this would go though.)
The similarities between ontogeny and phylogeny is well-known in modern biology. I wonder how the belief in a Creator in earlier times influenced the seemingly prevalent idea that humans come pre-conceived like monads in the womb and then simply scale up during development on through childhood to adulthood. Kids in old paintings typically also looked like mere (linearly) down-sized adults.

A problem with that is that compiler technology hasn't really progressed to do big whole-program or data-layout optimizations from high level specs.

If we were closer to the model where a program would read its fixed inputs (for the run) and it would be specialized in place for the input using partial evaluation, with profile feedback for data accesses to help transforming the internal data representations to optimize storage requirement and cache access patterns, we would be much more motivated to specify many things abstractly enough to give machine representations of the code and data more freedoms.
Not that easy. If they buy it all up that only cements the value at their entry point.

What would happen if SVB customer themselves went bankrupt? Say some risky investment startup was banking with SVB and had $1 million with them. They can now take out a bridge loan. What if that investment startup now suffers its own liquidity crisis (or even just waste all the money) and default themselves. How is brex covered in such a case? Wouldn't they have to get in line with all the other creditors/investors?
The good code will be changed after it has ceased to be good code too. And bad code can become good code in the process of changing it.

There is nothing that makes good code more or less likely to change than bad code.

I used to have a 4Runner and someone had a near identical one at my old gym. Sometimes I would try to unlock their car. One time it was unlocked and I tried to start it and thought it was broken. Thank god it didn’t work. We both kept our cars clean and free of clutter so there weren’t many cues as to which car was which.
Especially at HP. In recent decades it's gone from one of the most respected companies on the planet to bottom of the dog pile.

Never ever again would I buy HP equipment.
Hi, I'm Kudrapali, an Independent Advisor and Microsoft Expert with 999 years of experience and knowledge about 'your problem'. Have you tried the obvious solution, which you already mentioned didn't work? If you did, and it still doesn't work, have you tried reinstalling the system or buying a new computer?

Do let me know if you require any further help on this. Will be glad to help you.
No, generally we only consider active choices to be something someone chose to do. If UPS had a history of drivers eating every other package, you might argue that it's a risk that's baked in, but they don't.

And neither did this bank have a history of breaking down.

If your car is on fire and then explodes, nobody would say "jen20 had to detonate their car", because it implies that you pushed a button to make it explode. "Well, they could have known that that brand of cars has a 1 in 1000000000 chance of blowing up, so they did it by choice of car" isn't something you'll hear.
I'm sure I heard it about cheaper cars in the 90s too, but it could also have just been friend-of-a-friend urban legend.
Dare I say it, I'm not sure it's that deep.
Frankly those "I understand that you feel that way but my intention was" statements sound far more like evidence that someone is intentionally patronising and denigrating someone than "sorry, I didn't mean..."

That carries all the problems of acknowledging you're aware of the effects of things you're saying (just as bad from an HR point of view), but simply refusing to care (worse), and it's hard to think of any response to accusations of "mansplaining" that sounds more like "mansplaining" than unapologetically stating it's unfortunate a lady is incorrect to object to your statement...
You could probably cross-compile on the computer you already own and run the code in an emulator. Or buy a developer board and run on the actual hardware. Raspberry Pi RP2040 boards are pretty inexpensive.

The standard for cryptographic security is that the attacker can do no better than brute force. And the complexity for that is usually set high enough that it is out of range for the entire computational capacity of our civilization for years to come.

I'd say handing the key to the attacker in a package that requires somewhere between a skilled reverse-engineer and a semiconductor lab to untangle falls far short of that standard.
The only reason we are talking about LLM is because it is the latest shiny thing. My overall point was that we are chipping away at what it means to be human through many advances in AI, across disciplines. NOT that LLM is the entire brain, it is just latest solving one aspect. So LLM is just latest 'check that off the list' of what a human can do but computer can't.

Too much idle cash is a wasted asset.

As for money markets, don’t those get invested in treasury bills/notes anyway? Why go through a “middleman” when one has enough volume to invest directly?

Short-term obligations may not provide the yield that their financial structure requires.

10-year notes, in certain situations, provide an optimal combo of yield and risk. Provided, of course, that nothing major happens to the economy which wasn’t the case here. Then again, who’s good at predicting that?

In the end, it seemed like, given what was true at the time the decision was made, SVB made a rational choice.

> You might have one thing measuring fuel burn rate in grams/second and another in kg/second.

One of my jobs is reporting on packaging weights[1] in the UK and it's not uncommon to have this problem when I request data.

For example we request in Kgs, but one manufacturer sent back the report table of numbers in grams. That meant the thin plastic sleeve a tube of paper coffee cups comes in was reported at 30Kgs rather than 30g.

These components are all taxed / levied at various stages in the supply chain so being out by a factor of 1,000 can make a significant difference - we sanity check all our data, but a surprising number of people don't. It's not life threatening, but expensive!

[1] It's for the UK packaging waste regulations and packaging taxes. For a case of paper coffee cups we report on the weight and materials of every component such as the cardboard outer box, labels, parcel tape, inner sleeve bags, paper in the cups and the plastic lining in the cups.

Implementing the software support and getting operating systems to play along and fragmentation between GPU vendors, as always with GPUs on x86, have been the problems. From all accounts it's been working reasonably well on the consoles though.

Also chicken-and-egg: low GPU compute usage uptake outside of games has meant it's not improved lately.

Their OKR at that level is probably time to issue resolution. They are a cost center and this is fastest way to close and get to the next ticket with a macro button.

If their OKR was instead product improvement to delight all future customers, say, then the response would have been "oh shit that sounds like an OS issue, let me get some engineers on this."

Loaning money to a risky borrower can be practically risk free if the borrower provides collateral. And the deposits in SVB are an excellent example of collateral. They are illiquid, but the funds are being held by the FDIC, which is highly reliable about (eventually) paying out (some portion, not necessarily the full amount).
Handling a foreign currency is a lot of overhead, you will only find this accepted in locations where it is quite common for people to not have the local currency. If you're in the middle of Europe you'll have a hard time finding a place that will just accept US dollars outside of some very tourist focused destinations. And even there I'm not sure if it'll work.

The places where I've seen this mostly work was near borders, and it makes sense that you'd accept the neighbour currency there even if it is some overhead. If you can quickly hop over the border you're much less likely to exchange currency before than if you plan a full trip in a different country.
they link to their personal blog. unless that's fake/generated to add to their legitimacy...
The FDIC said a bit more

> The FDIC will pay uninsured depositors an advance dividend within the next week.

The FDIC will examine the books and estimate how much of the uninsured it can pay now, and pay that as an immediate dividend.

> Uninsured depositors will receive a receivership certificate for the remaining amount of their uninsured funds. As the FDIC sells the assets of Silicon Valley Bank, future dividend payments may be made to uninsured depositors.
So you'd prefer articles be replaced entirely with outlines that only bullet point specific items? I suppose that's a position one can take, but I think many people prefer to read articles that include a coherent narrative. This one isn't even particularly long. If you'd prefer to read the ChatGPT summary you can certainly generate it.

I remember back in the 80s—-think it was a Chevy Vega—-my mother and I got into the wrong one in a parking lot after she unlocked it. It’s a little weird realizing the car doesn’t smell quite right and then there’s everyone else’s stuff.

Guess the pins in those old locks were like bits. The ignition has to have all the bits right, but the door only had to match the highest ones.
Moderation is key. On the one hand a high cadence plan/act/review cycle is rocket fuel for personal productivity, and nothing forces you to manage focus and flow as well as blocks in a calendar, but on the other hand you need to space things out, manage energy, and give yourself some room to breathe. Otherwise the parts of your brain that aren’t planning your every waking moment will eventually rebel.
Because the text will be "will you marry m?"
At least in big cities in Argentina, you can pay with dollars in many places. Some shops like big supermarkets even have a sign that shows their exchange rate. (Note that the official exchange rate is AR$200, but the unofficial one is AR$400. You may get a bad exchange rate in some shops.) For buying clothes it may be more difficult because you must negotiate the exchange rate, and they may only accept only US$100 bills, and only if they look nice and is the new model that has a big face. It may be more difficult to pay the electricity bill in dollars.

(In small towns it may be more difficult, but not impossible, specially if you are nice.)

Why not? I see just two deceptions:

1. You can only choose from pre-build characters (the poster-style thumbnails of the characters implies something different)

2. I don't think you can actually move the camera (or just wiggle it a bit)

They just carefully chained a bunch of things:

- segmentation to isolate character

- in-paint for character removal and a 360 HDR photo sphere for lighting

- pose estimation (and something equivalent for the face, but that was a bit weak I felt)

- estimate camera position from tracking points on the floor

- render hand built 3D model from poses and with light sphere

So the shortcomings for now are:

- you can only use pre-build humanoid 3D models

- you still need to film it with real actors

- face tracking doesn't seem that good yet

- lighting is semi-convincing

- no interaction with the environment (not even shadows)

- some visual artifacts from the character removal (I think mostly segmentation failing and hairs getting out of bounds, you can see it in the last shot)
Perhaps you are familiar with #Resist, Disrupt J20, and the rhetoric of Democrats from 2015 through 2023? No specifically analogous event to Jan 6th 2020 occurred, but I certainly don't have the same faith as you that something similar or worse wouldn't happen, given the above trends.
Knowing nothing about the relationship, it might have taken longer than 18 years to get her to marry them if he didn't play that joke on her. Some people are more playful than others :)
Make no mistake, this bank failure is the first sign of a western capitalist and international depression. Too much liquidity followed by the hike in interest rates....works every time.

From Bloomberg:

“The issues at SVB have been like a cold shower and with the Fed having just countenanced the idea of faster hikes once again, the potential for a very unhappy equity market should the jobs data surprise on the upside is very real indeed,” James Athey, investment director at global investment company Abrdn, told Bloomberg. “It has always been the case that the sort of hikes we have seen from the Fed were going to cause problems somewhere,” he added.
