“Fat acceptance” doesn’t have to imply that it’s healthy, just that you don’t have to be a complete jerk to overweight people.

This was back when A rounds were much more modest in size. We put it in one of the largest and therefore most highly regulated banks, the ones that now have to meet Basel III standards. If we'd had more money, we would have put it in 2 banks. A solution that would have been enough for almost everybody here, as the main thing causing a risk of not making payroll is the way the FDIC is locking up a good chunk of the uninsured funds while they sell off SVB's assets.

> I don't know what to tell you about "moderation interventions seeming partial".

I've been here for some years now, and I can say weirdness that seems partial, continually happens. For instance, all site submissions that I've made for the last 2 weeks appeared shadowbanned/ghostbanned. They are not "dead", they simply don't show to the public.

When such things happens, it can leave users wondering if there is something going on with moderation, which is linked to the type of views expressed.

The myth isn’t a myth. It refers to the price of calories, not the price of food by weight.

You end up with the cheapest calories being lightly processed grains like rice and flour, then you end up with more processed grains like white bread and ramen, then move to things like peanut butter, before hitting junk food. The point is that the cheapest calories aren’t exactly healthy.

The produce aisle tends to be pretty expensive per calorie, potatoes excepted, since veggies aren’t calorically dense, and are sold mostly by weight.
I know the correct usages but often avoid them as it doesn't confuse the reader, but can break copy/paste usage. I can get by with ASCII hyphen/dash and double-dash for em-dash. I particularly dislike autocorrection of punctuation into more pleasing forms (e.g. smart quotes/apostrophes). This is one reason I tend to do outlining in Github issues more often than G.Docs.

Of course I'm mostly writing about computer/software topics and don't write for publications or a non-technical audience.

Making children and adults compete in the labor market so business owners can protect their profit margins doesn’t seem off to you?

i think the article explains that the BMI is misleading. there are ways one can be healthy and not actually overweight while having a bad BMI. the laymans conclusion: BMI says i am overweight, but actually i am healthy, therefore i must have this healthy obesity.
Except, this isn't about paying kids. It's about working around paying adults living wages (so they can, you know, go home and spend time with their kids instead of going to a second or third job). And it's also about increasing corporate profits by not paying adults living wages.

If you gave them free coffee for a few years though and then started charging $5 then it’s a lot harder to argue that it costs money to make coffee. How the hell were you able to give it away for free for the last few years if it costs money to produce?!

Advertising enabled this model. It makes people value your work less because it is perceived to be free, even though in reality you might be raking in way more money due to the wider reach (no cost friction).

Advertising is literally the root problem here. The expectation of free didn’t come from somewhere else. Also, not all digital assets are expected to be free. Only those that advertising got it’s claws into.
This NEW research found a tenuous link that debunked the previous studies that found the healthy obesity DOES exist. So if we're talking about episodes made before this new research came out, this article directly refutes your "did the hosts even look?".

Ok so now this research is out - there is a link between obesity and poor health, but how strong is that link? As someone else pointed out in another thread, look at the error bars... ALL of that difference could easily be explained by the the well-documented factor of anti-fat bias in healthcare.

But the more important thing here is: if being fat is unhealthy - why would we compound that with stigma, shame, and anti-fat bias? Can you prove those things make people skinny? Because I can prove that those things make people MORE UNHEALTHY. Why would we do something that makes unhealthy people more unhealthy?

Much of the "schadenfreude" is backlash at special pleading, distortion of facts and word games.

If the tech community reaction was "wow, this sucks, we're going to have to manage a lot of crap" the general reaction would be very sympathetic.

> It’s a social dance that makes people hide the personal truth that health isn’t the only thing that matters in life.

How do this claim make you feel? "Alcoholism isn't objectively bad because for some people boozing matters more than health."

Remember that being obese effects the people around you. Particularly, obese adults teach bad lifestyle lessons by example to their children, who in turn are more likely to be obese than other kids because of it. Having obese parents is even worse for a child's life expectancy than second hand smoke from chainsmoking parents.

I'm following the instructions on the post from the original owner of the repository involved here. It's at https://til.simonwillison.net/llms/llama-7b-m2 and it is much simpler. (no affiliation with author)

I'm currently running the 65B model just fine. It is a rather surreal experience, a ghost in my shell indeed.

As an aside, I'm seeing an interesting behaviour on the `-t` threads flag. I originally expected that this was similar to `make -j` flag where it controls the number of parallel threads but the total computation done would be the same. What I'm seeing is that this seems to change the fidelity of the output. At `-t 8` it has the fastest output presumably since that is the number of performance cores my M2 Max has. But up to `-t 12` the output fidelity increases, even though the output drastically slows down. I have 8 perf and 4 efficiency cores, so that makes superficial sense. At `-t 13` onwards, the performance exponentially decreases to the point that I effectively no longer have output.
You just can't say that here, it's mean! And it makes the Reds look better than they should!
Did you read the title of this thread? No one is arguing about bailing out a bank. There is a difference between bailing out a bank, and ensuring customers of said bank who did nothing wrong gain access to their money. Yellen is saying this exact thing. For some reason people like yourself are unable to differentiate between the two.

It's not an obscure trivia question. It's a question that anyone with an understanding of the material in question should be able to answer, with something vastly better than a superficial 'the two books are similar, but, like, different and talk about different stuff'.

It immediately cuts to the heart of the matter - an LLM does not understand things. It does not know anything but which word follows another. It can't do anything but regurgitate things it has read in an incredibly lossy manner.

But it's a neat party trick that seems to fool a lot of people into thinking that there's something legitimately useful, here.

I call bullshit. The average cooked potatoe has 25% less calories than rice or pasta. You'd have to eat 3kg of cooked potatoes to get 2100kcal. I am pretty certain it is near impossible to get fat from eating potatoes. Go give it a try.

I bet that it is the "frying" part or the sauce or butter that comes with it, that leaves a lasting impression on the hips.
Many did use multiple banks.
They are almost certainly not going to let the bidder leave the deposits. The way the fdic actually protects deposits most of the time is by selling the business to another bank, so that’s what this auction is for.
IMO the fat acceptance movement is pushing more for people to think about obesity like alcohol consumption: not "healthy", but potentially part of a sustainable approach to life. Of course, each deviation from "perfect" health has impacts - but learning to order them productively is what you want.

It's not really that you want to be fat, it's that weight is only one of many lifestyle choices and we'd give people better medical treatment if we were less obsessed with it. Also: People should try to move towards a healthier body weight! But it's a question of balancing effort and focus and not some moral imperative.

You don't need the FDIC, lodge your money directly with the US government.

Let's say you earn your income 28 days before you have to pay out wages (for illustration purposes). You buy a 28 day Treasury bill which matures in time for you to make payroll. Even if they're paid into a bank account you're taking a lot less risk having money sit for a day than continuously. You also earn a little interest.

For anyone looking to leave: FreeYourMusic is a cool tool to transfer saved albums and playlists. $15 one time fee, and for my library got about 90%+ accuracy matching songs from Spotify to Apple Music. Saved a boatload of time.

Overall I think Apple Music is missing many things I'll miss. Spotify's recommendations engine is just better (though, maybe as I use AM a bit The All-Powerful AI will improve). The Apple Music apps have a better designed UI IMO, but they're buggy and full of jank; iOS is good enough, but MacOS and web need a lot of work.

It will be "forced", in the way that you can no longer support your family doing some jobs, so your kids have to work as well to avoid starving. The point here isn't to let children work, it's to have children work to avoid paying adult workers more.
There is something definitely wrong if the goal is to depress wages for adults working the same jobs doing the same thing.
I don’t think that’s the claim. I would spend 3 hours per day in commute living in the bay area. You’re underestimating US commute time.
FDIC probably will not put in anything: there are sufficient assets to cover the insured amount.

The SVB name is worth something. If FDIC can liquidate assets and pay 90 cents on the dollar for deposits, a bank who will acquire and give 95-100 cents on the dollar is better for everyone.
If you want an idea: A SaaS to host product guides with good i18n.

It's just that rather than them failing because their product was bad or they're working on a bullshit idea, they might fail because their bank failed? And not some fancy crypto bank, a regular, government-regulated bank? Even if you want to see the startup space fall, that's a rather unsatisfying way for it to happen. It's not a SBF moment.
Yellen said:

> “Let me be clear that during the financial crisis, there were investors and owners of systemic large banks that were bailed out, and the reforms that have been put in place means that we’re not going to do that again,” Yellen told CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “But we are concerned about depositors and are focused on trying to meet their needs.”

Senator Mark Warren said:

> “The shareholders in the bank are going to lose their money, let’s be clear about that. But the depositors can be taken care of,” he told ABC’s “This Week.”

These statements tend to indicate that the government is not going to bail out the bank owners (shareholders of the bank). But they are concerned about the depositors, presumably because they realize that there's a risk that if a fairly large (top 20) bank is allowed to go under, many smaller banks could be at risk of a run.

> The cynical part of me wonders if they timed this change to coincide with the SVB debacle in the hopes that the negative PR would be drowned out.

Being in the news for any reason is the last thing a bank wants right now. With startups and the public so much on edge, a simple "omg look at this, Brex is in trouble" tweet can be enough to cause them serious harm.

My guess is the exact opposite – the announcement was pre-planned and they went ahead with it, but some middle manager is going to be getting an earful for not delaying it until the sector is out of the woods.

You're contributing to misinformation by repeating these false claims.
Not to mention a freer housing market!
Yes, that's why I said "99% of the population", not "99% of the economy".

But the economy's also going to be fine here. Most businesses with a lot of money understand that bank failure risk is just one of the many financial risks to manage. To the extent a startup wants to have millions of dollars but not hire somebody competent to manage that money, them's the breaks.

The same thing would be true for startups that don't take security seriously, for example. I feel bad for the founders here, but no worse than I would for one who experienced hackers getting in and stealing the data. Even if they had hired "sort of entity specialized in dealing with their" security needs. Picking a bad vendor happens, and if you bet your company on a vendor choice in a vital area, well, sometimes those bets don't come out like you hoped.
Asking for a bailout for the 1% is pathetic.

> the government has a role to protect depositors, and we should all want this certainty.

Yes, and the government DOES protect depositors and is 100% clear about it--up to $250K, which covers 95-99% of Americans. It could not have been clearer that amounts over $250K were uninsured. A seven year old can understand this.

Everyone with more than $250K should take a haircut if there are not enough funds to go around. The government should NOT bail out the 1%.

This affects my portfolio companies. They will survive, tougher.

The lack of integrity shown by some in the VC class is pretty revealing.

Sadly I bet they will get their bailout. You get a sense that their secret private message groups are becoming more organized.

Anyone calling for a bailout of depositors with over $250K should be ashamed. At the very least, publish your dataset of all your positions. You want the public's help, time to make yourself more public.
> It would be great if VCs would provide simple cash management services to their fledgling investments, though.

Even a 3 hour flight feels like torture. I can't imagine suffering for 20 hours on a plane. They should offer the same level of comfort as sleeper trains if the flight is that long.
yeah, so it all comes down to a math equation that includes things like: how many banks also did risky things are are likely to experience a run on Monday, how to stop the potential contagion, and how to maximize the liquidation value of SVB. All these people yelling what "should" happen or who "deserves" or "doesn't deserve" what are detached from reality.
Also known as being literally insolvent. They can't pay back what they owe.

No, insolvency is a legal and accounting term indicating that liabilities exceed assets. If assets and liabilities are equal, but the liquidity of those assets did not match the term of the liabilities., that is illiquidity, not insolvency.

That being said, the CFPI said in its order shutting down SVB that the bank was both illiquid and insolvent so it appears that their assets, even adjusted for value at maturity, were not sufficient to cover liabilities. And that's probably why the banks they reached out to about taking over SVB Thursday night did not.
You'd expect to hear about Israeli startups in the Jewish Press.

And many HN'ers don't realize that SVB's fall will directly affect tiny cash strapped startups, so the article strikes a nerve.

Besides, the article is short and well written. And its closing line should be framed:

I think the important thing with AI is to start at the customer and work backwards to AI. If you are trying to think of cool things you can build with the new AI APIs you are probably doing it wrong.

One thing to remember about having competition is that most customers are not doing a “bake off” and they probably are not even aware of your competitors. If they found you, and you seem reputable, and you do what they need, and the price seems worth it, you can probably close the sale.

Of course the first one is key. That’s the hardest thing about starting from scratch. They have to find you.
