If you're lucky, the system you're trying to simulate has good in-vivo recordings. That way you can compare the in-silco models directly to the real ones using either firing rates, LFPs, or other neuronal dynamic. Unfortunately, most of the time that isn't the case.

Trying to simulate a 3000 cells and 500K connections of the fly brain is not a computational problem, it's a knowledge one. If you can find functional properties to build a spiking/rates model, and data to compare it too; then it would be feasible (although a lot of work) to build and run simulations on the model. But without that extra info, and only using the physical connectome, there would be very little reason to try to do so.
If you need to make a font then perhaps try FontForge. [1] Be aware that if you copy and use this created font in the web or self publish, which is very much all based on another source, you'll need to hope that it was a free font, and not one that will be aggressively defended by its creator.

Just because a tool doesn't find a match doesn't mean someone or organisation has given up their rights. I'd first wonder just how good the tool is, and not just hot air. There were as of a few years ago, a few places on the web where one could ask for help to identify a font, since human knowledge is probably better at identifying odd fonts.

My understanding is that rising interest rates means people and businesses are less likely to get loans and do additional business with the banks. Along with bad investments and holdings, if banks aren’t well diversified, and they’re taking too many risks, they can bleed money.

Is there a limit for the number of tokens that can be fed to the models when run locally?

OpenAI limits prompts to 4096 tokens.

If there was no limit, could the LLM be fed a 100 page document in the prompt and then answer questions about it?

Yup, it is SFTP for both sending files (initiating payments) and receiving files (getting balances, confirmations, etc). This is how most programmatic money movement was happening under the hood at SVB (and many other banks for that matter).

That would be a government captured by the small-government interests. While that is the interest group I would want controlling government, it is still going to get attacked with the same template - some form of "all our problems stem from [private interests who are befitting from light regulation] infiltrating government.

I’ve probably spent two weeks (80+ active hours) debugging stuff like ‘“” is not None’. At this point, I’d prefer a language with only string types to one that only checks types in production.

pytest is terrible, at least from how I’ve seen people use it. It hides the diagnostic error explaining why the test failed in a random place. Its output is not parseable. If you have a long running test that times out, then it buffers the stdout and stderr so you have to wait for the fallback test time out every. single. time.
Ha! I'd forgotten that they updated this. Mea culpa on that one!

Don't ycombinator and the various VCs always complain about government regulation? Don't they always complain about taxes?

The other day I saw the old quote "there's no atheists in a foxhole" extended with "and no libertarians in a bank run".

If there's a tax payer bail out (and I don't believe there needs to be - this seems more a liquidity problem than total funding) then all of that money is just tax payers giving money to VCs.

More over, this bank run is almost entirely a product of VCs telling all of the startups they funded to pull all of their money out of the same bank they told all of them to use - so they supported removing the regulations that make runs harder, and then they caused the run, and now they're asking for tax payers to take on all the losses.
Your bias is showing here. Someone could easily come in and say that the Republicans weren't saying "don't raise it" they were saying "if you're gonna raise it, how about we give people some tax cuts too?" And those Republicans really meant it, too (/s)! It's not magically better or less of a political play when the side you like does it, even though Democrats generally cave on their own threats too early.

Well, a court/law just has to declare "AI" as allowed to be used in such decisions, and the whole recourse you describe vanishes though...

#2 is sort of silly. There's endless use cases for a superhuman intelligence to make billions of dollars. Just the application into medicine and drug development would create trillions of dollars of value and completely change the world.

I’ve noticed a lot of “straw man” fallacy/rhetorical device in online media surrounding this particular Cochrane review.

“The straw man is a fallacy in which an opponent's argument is overstated or misrepresented in order to be more easily attacked or refuted.”

https://www.thoughtco.com/straw-man-fallacy-1692144

I assumed the message that could be taken from the Cochrane review was “there was/is insufficient evidence for the efficacy of masks in public settings to support general mandates”. There is a higher standard to be met for performance when an intervention is mandated than when it is just recommended. If the intervention just might help, people (in the US at least) expect to be freely given the choice whether or not to follow such a recommendation. Hence the heightened interest in this review that suggests the evidence for such an expected level of mask performance to support mask mandates is weak.

It seems some of the media and pols want to suggest the review states “masks don’t work”. Surgical masks “work” in operating rooms, firefighters wear “working” masks, OSHA requires masks for certain environments. High-efficiency masks might work very well in a doctor’s waiting rooms. On its face, “masks don’t work” is a silly assertion. It’s a classic straw man. Implying the review states “masks don’t work” suggests the review itself was flawed, and thus distracting and deflecting accountability from those media/politicians who supported (what increasingly seem to have potentially been) unwarranted mask mandates for the general public. It is neither a benign nor accidental error to erroneously suggest the review stated that. It’s a rhetorical smoke screen.

The straw man is a rhetorical device as old as the hills and, when you smell it, it’s the smell of intellectual and moral desperation. It’s bad high school debating tactics. It’s both flap and doodle.
The distinction they're making is that in a bailout the money would go to SVB in order for it to continue operation. They don't care if SVB goes out of business, they want the government to give the money directly to them. I agree, a distinction without a difference.
"Very safe" was always a complete lie. It assumed a certain macro-economic environment that is now over.

Why do we allow these people to profit off the gains of their successful bets while socializing their losses?

The pitchforks are coming out at some point. "Gradually, then suddenly."

That Hemingway quote feels very relevant lately.
> And the balance sheet as liquidity skewed as it is is healthy, I would be extremely surprised if they get less than 95% back.

The big question is how much of the "run" has been paid, or will have to be paid at 100% because of transactions initiated before receivership. I also think 95% is a little bit optimistic from the get-go.

> They have been pretty clear that they want to do this.

An unspecified dividend at an unspecified time sometime next week is better than nothing, but it's still pretty toxic.
Short-term rates were near 0, but Long-term rates were 1.x%, which doesn't sound like much but keep in mind they bought tens of billions of dollars of these bonds.

That 1.x% on that huge amount would be over $1 Billion per year.

It's a mismatch in terms of the duration, ie your depositors can ask for their money back at any time but the bonds don't mature for many years, but as long as the deposits are kept there the bank can get away with it.

The succinct answer is: Greed.
If we agree that declarative rendering has its upsides, then it is ridiculous to keep moaning that the complexity is "nuts" and that everyone's just insane for no reason. React is what a declarative model looks like. It eliminates an entire class of UI, state, and behavior management issues, in exchange for working within its rendering engine. If you're looking to build a complex frontend, that is extremely attractive.
Uh, why does this need to be flagged? Agree or disagree, it’s a legit thing to discuss.
Of course they should be fired and not hired as executive leaders ever again. But the gov and the fed’s erratic policy and failure to change course early enough leading to the level of inflation we have and whipsaw interest rates need to shoulder some too.

Something like 50% of mortgages were written between 2020 and 2022. So many of these are about to be underwater due to the whipsaw.

There’s going to be a lot of failures in the coming months.
If suddenly no people chose to work in the business under some belief that it would be morally wrong, then what would happen?

salaries would rise, making it more costly, but motivating a few people to continue working there. in the long run it would contribute to make oil more expensive, which is really the only way to stop people from using it.
I get that it's your site and you can delist whatever posts you want to, but one of the hot-button issues in politics right now is censorship and manipulation of social media so it's a really bad look for you to be doing this. Nobody is going to want to give you free
money if you're going to use whatever power is at your disposal to censor discussion around whether or not you deserve free money.

Again, it's certainly within your rights to flag this post but you're literally asking for an untold amount of money from the public while you're using what little power you have to stop the public from criticizing you.

Just try to not be a fucking hypocritical asshole for once.
I've seen ChatGPT draw logical conclusions from (most-likely) previously unseen axioms. I've seen it invent ideas that (most-likely) were not in his training set.
I've seen it fail too, but when it succeeds I can not substantially distinguish it from the novelty or logical reasoning of a human.

On niche subjects, it fails often. But you can get it to correct itself by making it think logically by spelling out axioms, which seems to fit your definition of novelty.

All the arguments I've read about it not being intelligent seem to stem from some form of essentialism. Right now it's dumb intelligent but I think giving it an adjustable recursive depth, similarly to what BulgarianIdiot suggests, will go a long way to improving it given its base capabilities.

I found no information on how to do this with a cursory Google search. What comes up are other stratgies, like multiple bank accounts, each at different banks. Or instruments like certificates of deposit, which aren't suitable for payroll.

So if banks offer more insurance for a fee, I can't easily tell how to do this. My business banking account has nothing about such a feature, either online search or looking at the fees schedule.

I'd consider this obscure, even esoteric information. But I'd expect a CFO should know this. And I'd expect a venture capital fund would have an info sheet on avoiding consolidating deposits in a bank, given the 2008 experience. And yet... nothing.

Skill doesn’t but choosing what parts of a global conglomerate you chose to work in does. Going to build the newest AWS service that will change th world, maybe you will see a layoff, maybe you fail, maybe you succeed. Going to work in a core money printing factory for your business like Google ads, layoffs are less likely. GOing to work on HR/recruiting software to help your company hire more people, you sure as shit will see layoffs coming your way.

Not all roles in these big companies are viewed as equal when it comes to how leadership views the value your team/department/org plays within the companies bigger picture. Be business smart, not just engineering smart and layoffs likely don’t come your way.

Further this with being non-financially illiterate, save money, don’t live beyond your means, treat your stock RSUs as bonus income and life will start to look a lot different.

I don't understand people who go through 8h+ economy flights and then say - I want to do that again! After just a few of those I swore: never again. Since then it's all been a giant puzzle: how to avoid the long distance economy seat.

10-15 years ago, buying US Airways Dividend Miles during their repeating sales and then using them to redeem business/first class award tickets on Star Alliance flights was the way to go.

Since then it became more complicated (and more expensive).
Based on past examples… bank runs can be kind of contagious. “What if my bank collapsed?” may be a fleeting thought, but it’s also pretty easy to withdraw some cash “just in case”… if the situation escalated and there’s any genuine fear, the example set by anyone not getting all their money out of a collapsing bank incentives anyone who succumbs to the fear of loss with respect to the idea their bank may too collapse, to go and try to withdraw most of their money… and it becomes a bit like a snowball down a hill as more people have trouble… The FDIC are nominally to protect against this but the statutory deposit protection limits aren’t worth as much as they used to be… thanks to inflation and changes in housing market values.
This is true of a ton of businesses, though. If it's not OpenAI then it's ad providers, or payment processors, or affiliate programs, or the banking industry. These are all huge blockers to a lot of businesses (porn sites, non-monetizable content, cannabis companies, etc).

Do you know of any advice or guides on how to use the chatgpt api? It's unclear to me when things should be a system message, and if not, if they should be user or assistant messages.

You say here that the simple message should be really simple. So, further instructions should be in a user message? Any idea what constitutes a "simple" system message?
Wow! Really great list of suggestions. Thank you for taking the time. Most of these are things that I have plans to address so let me go through your points.

- So my reasons for not including these jobs is not out of embarrassment. It was more just trying to keep my resume concise. It appears that I have been taking the wrong approach and I am going to try to make my job history tell more of a story.

- The whole being vague about my education was an experiment. I've had a lot of people tell me it was a bad move, and I am going to change it.

- I don't like the summary either. I have heard suggestions to just leave it off. If you have any opinions on that, i'd like to hear.

- I have been doing everything possible to shoehorn everything I can into the real estate one page offers. Perhaps I was too overzealous. This is another reason why i'm considering leaving off the summary all together.

- I agree. I haven't really been tailoring my resume as much as I should. I'm thinking I need to create a few different versions. One that is front-end focused, full-stack, and maybe IoT, although i don't have much confidence I would be qualified to go into that space.

- I'm happy to hear this last point. Before making this post I felt like there were insurmountable obstacles between me and the career that I want. Hearing that there are problems that are actually fixable with my strategy gives me more hope, so thanks for that.
Why not use something like Retool? IMO if you’re building internal tools from scratch like that there’s a 99% chance you’re spending too much time on them.

Sounds like this could help with preventing potential panics at other banks but seems like this would do nothing for uninsured deposits at SVB, correct?
Wait, what value is there in the illusion? Some customers may be unable to wait, regardless of a run or not. And if they cannot count on you now then at least they would know to avoid you in the future.
Wow. I did not realized that. What SVB did, basically having a gigantic unhedged position on the interest rate through mismatched duration, is just plain crazy. It should have never happened in any bank with the basic risk controls. Not a rocket science at all. But if there are more banks out there with such unhedged positions, this is scary. I am guessing this is what the "Moral Hazard" looks like, that people were talking about during 2007-2008 financial crisis. Everybody is expecting a bailout and people are incentivized to take crazy risks.

You put thinking in quotes, so what exactly do you mean by thinking? Where does it do it? When?

AI as autocomplete is a perfect summarization of both what it does and how it does it. Anything more, including models “thinking”, is strategic PR aimed to make the public happy with their mouths gaping while they take all intellectual property ever published online and monetize it without paying the author.
