Do you think this net can tell us something about math or physics that we don’t know? If so, how?

The person making the claim that this is as or more intelligent than humans should at a minimum show it do something as impressive as humans. I’ll wait for a great piece of art or science until I for no reason diminish humans, that’s all. It’s not tiring to me to see the beauty of human intelligence.

People seem to be able to draw outside the lines. It’s cool, it’s beautiful. I shouldn’t have to point to any specific amazing achievements because there are too many. I haven’t seen one from an LLM yet. I’ll know it when I see it! Not hating, just clarifying.
I love this idea of “wherever your service ends up, it will reach out and sort out its DNS and networking so that the world can find it at the usual address”

Moving things from one platform to another is often simple enough on the deployment front. Reconfiguring load balancers, DNS, etc is not rocket science but it’s a hassle. In this version of the universe, I can just fling a service from my home pc to a data center and nothing really needs to know? That’s awesome.

Obvious practical limitations around latency, load balancing multiple services, etc. Hamd wave over that for the moment. This flavour of idea is exciting!

I work in a small startup with a headcount around ~30 employees. Although they are fully remote, employees can optionally work on the office, which is an open plan workspace.

It really does work for me. We have desks that could support about 25 people, but very rarely there are more than 8 present, so it doesn't feel crowded. I also like most of my coworkers, and that's a key part of it. I wouldn't want it to change to a cubicles workspace if I have the opportunity to just work from home when I'm not feeling like interacting with people.

The ONLY downside to collecting physical albums, besides the cost of newer or more desireable albums, is the space it requires. I'd like an album collection, but realistically I don't have the space (yet). Besides, it would go alongside the book collection, we've got like 2 Billy bookcases worth of books around the house and would like a lot more yet. I mean we don't have (take) the time to read and play video games instead, but that's besides the point; owning physical media is great.

Gaussian blur is essentially acting as a low pass filter. An IR filter does not strictly destroy information in the filtered spectrum components, but does attenuate their power.

Given a perfect blurred image, reconstruction is possible - however due to the attenuation, these high frequency components are ~sensitive~.

Apart from quantisation effects [you mentioned which limits perfect de-convolution], adding a little AW Gaussian noise(such as taking a photo of the image from across the room) after the kernel is applied obliterates high frequency features.

Recovery when noise is low (plus known glyphs) is why you should not use Gaussian blur followed by print screen to redact documents.
Inability to recover when there are artifacts and noise is [part of] why cameras cannot just set a fixed focus [at whatever distance] and deconvolve with the aperture [estimated width at each pixel] to deblur everything that was out of focus.

TLDR for readers, It is unlikely to recover sufficient detail via de-convolution here.

That's the opposite to other countries, where covid-19 mitigation was handled by media and bureaucrats.
> Unification would very obviously be a terrible idea

Why? In the entirety of my school education I never heard a mention that different kinds of dashes exist at all and I still have no idea what their individual purposes are, yet it never had any impact on my understanding of text. Maybe I'm overlooking something, but if people have no problems with reading/writing despite "decades of misuse due to the bad unification", then it's not so obvious to me how unification is such a bad idea.
There's no "cause for confusion" here either: the meaning is more than clear enough unless you're trying to be willfully confused by technicalities. The only way it might be confusing (or rather amusingly ambiguous) is if there was also uncertainty about the word "star". I don't think Physics StackExchange talks about film celebrities more often than astronomical objects, or that some film stars are invisible to the naked eye.
The music stopped. Hopefully some of the people that got out of their chairs went to a real bank.
I know from personal experience that you were "coached" to do so. You could choose another bank, it is "your company", however it was clear that it was frowned upon and could quickly put you outside the circle of trust. Also, for the most part, when you get your real funding, a CFO is "brought in", as most founders teams do not include a CFO from the start.

Similar for various services, technical and otherwise, if there was a portfolio company that offered these services.

This is from almost two decades ago, things may be different now.
I'm talking about this specific piece of code:

function handleClick() {
setCount(count + 1);

console.log({ count });
}

Since count is enclosed within the function, it could be mutated by _anything_. In isolation, you can't really be sure of what setCount does, since the "count + 1" statement passes a completely new value unrelated to count.

If setCount didn't have any side effects, it is an obvious mistake to assume the value of "count" would have changed.

So if the intention is to log the incremented count, it is bad code in any situation, React or not.
Even if you have all your money spread across different accounts (of the same category) at the same bank they all contribute to the $250k limit. It needs to be spread across account categories and banks.

I grade this as a fail of a hypothetical CFO interview I’m running. Sorry.

> Note that liquidity crunches can ruin balance sheets even without this bond-specific feature. For example if you own 10% of a company stock, and need to dump all of it, the price will drop by a lot.

Of course, but that’s an unrelated effect.

I can lose money by buying something that loses value. I can also lose money by buying something that is hard to sell without paying large spread or causing a large market impact because I sold it. These are entirely orthogonal — I could buy securities that go up and lose some or all of the gain due to a forced sale.

SVB’s bonds went down, in an NPV sense or a mid-market sense or any other sense that considers what they’re actually worth today.

But the same ("there really is no reason for CDs to stay around") was said for vinyl and casette tapes before; given that these are now having a resurgence, I don't think you can be as absolute about CDs.

That said, I don't see minidisks making a comeback any time soon, but then their timing was very unfortunate - only just before the much more convenient MP3 players.
Socialism is way more than that...You can't simply take one feature and point to it.
I haven't bought vinyl in at least 15 years, but I'm pleased to see any physical media still maintaining a place in our lives. For me, it's not the nostalgia factor, or the atmosphere created by physical media, it's purely about the availability of music.

I have a huge collection of hip-hop vinyl and CDs. A significant proportion of my favourites are not available on Spotify. We're not talking about niche artists either - releases by plenty of well-known artists from the 90s and 2000s have some kind of rights issue that has kept them off streaming platforms. Just recently one of the best, and seminal 00s hip-hop albums has been lost from Spotify. Either all this fantastic music is gone and lost forever (because not on Spotify = does not exist), or we keep the CDs, vinyl, and ripped MP3 collections.

People think that Spotify is basically all of music. They see the music streaming services as having solved the 'unified catalogue' problem where the video streaming services are still balkanised. This is far from the truth though, so much is missing from Spotify. What I really miss is not the vinyl, it's the completeness of Napster in 2000.

Can't it be that you are fooled by his eloquence and gentlemanliness, but the actual substance is weak? Or that you cut him more slack because you want him to be right?

Chomsky used some examples in his article of what LLM's would get wrong. It is clear that he hasn't even tried, because chatGPT in fact gets those examples right. Why does he get a free pass for such errors?

Sounds like Aristotle when he claimed that women do not have wisdom teeth for reasons (he made up), instead of bothering to check.
> parking your money in a bank account should not be a risky endeavor

Why? It is. Transparently. There are measures of how risky different banks are.

For ordinary people, the risks should be insulated. And they are. Deposits are insured. Unemployment is insured. If you have more than $250k in a non-investment grade bank, you should have a strategy for mitigating that risk. If you have tens of millions of dollars of cash, you should have a treasury function.
The government should “rescue” people who have money in a failing bank. Banking should not be an adventure people seem to be conflating the people who invested in SVB and the people and businesses, who had money there, because they have to move money around or store money to run their businesses or their lives.

Having more money than the FDIC insures is not very hard for any business larger than a few people.

Government should absolutely be in the business of protecting the people storing their money in the bank.

People investing in a bank as a security should be responsible for that risk, yes, because they’ll be getting the profits if successful.
In China they use debt-free newly printed money to recapitalize banks. The reason this doesn't create moral hazard is lending is very tightly controlled and subject to regular decrees about who they can lend to and for what.
Large percentage of shares.
Nobody here probably knows even 1% of the complex variables involved and what options they had and what else they could have tried, so this is just for entertaining idle speculation. But if the bank knew that there was a chance that they could go under, their best bet for saving themselves might have been one of the following (probably) illegal things.

1) Blatantly pump and dump and manipulate some crypto in some way for quick cash. It would be a gamble of course, but maybe better to take a hit to your reputation and draw some minor legal scrutiny and pay some fine later rather than the alternative.

2) Do the usual crooked thing: in closed door meetings with the Feds, say you're going to go under if you don't get some kind of preemptive bailout, and list out the ripple effects to the economy.

As usual, Malcolm Gladwell looks insightful but it’s all surface gloss. Do some basic reading about the structure of university endowments: it’s not one big pot of money, it’s thousands upon thousands of individual gifts that often have specific purposes (like: a particular professorial chair, or a particular library) that are limitations on use.

I don’t even really understand the point about merit scholarships. Surely the purpose of a merit scholarship is to help someone who can’t afford to go to a school but who is academically outstanding? If you’re doing need-blind admissions and financial aid, that’s the empty set, isn’t it? Since everyone who is admitted can afford to go?

As to your last point, please go take a look at that Yale page I attached to the last post and tell me that you think the scholarship amounts look unfair to higher income households.
I say claw back that money and distribute it to debtors equally. Fair game? Socialize the losses among all who held money above the 250k.
There are players that use lasers instead of a physical needle I believe, but then you probably end up with CD quality since they basically sample the physical structure of the album.

But personally, I'll stick to digital for listening to music; vinyl is for collecting. I've got a handful of vinyl albums but not even a player, lol.
This is a false dichotomy. It's very much both.

To say that capitalism doesn't incentivise this sort of practice is pretty naïve.

It’s true that a 24 year old start up founder can’t just walk into a BoA branch and deposit the entire series A funds into a business checking account. We just had an object lesson in why not.

> After decades and decades there are still no conclusive results about how different types of workplaces influence productivity and mental health,

No idea about the latter, though I'm much happier having removed a 3 hour round-trip train commute (will it turn up on time? will it even turn up? will it be delayed en route?), but as far as productivity is concerned, my previous employer, like others went fully remote during COVID, and then stayed that way, based on internal evidence.

For all development teams across the company (green field, existing, maintenance, whatever), the number of PRs almost doubled for each team, and slightly less tangible metrics such as down-time, bug reports, decreased by non-trivial amounts, and quite a few product milestones were hit early, by quite some margin. That on its own was statistically significant, as pre-COVID, I don't think they hit any milestone dates.

Of course, you can argue that all of those are due to less meetings, less interruptions, easier availability of people to diagnose problems, and perhaps even better planning is required for being remote, but ultimately, all of those have improved the productivity of my former employer.
In the NE US, if I have to commute into the major city 45 miles or so away, whether by car or by the commuter rail that's about a 7 minute drive away, I'm almost 2 hours door to door. It's "only" about 75 minutes if I drive in after work.

Not that I ever go into my closer office any longer but that's about a 30 minute drive to an industrial park which is a very typical sort of commute. (I had about the same with another job years ago.)
I dunno man, saying "these poor companies need money for payroll" to actually mean "we want a multi-billion dollar bailout to cover the risks that we profited from, funded by the people who would never and will never see a dime of those profits", sounds pretty weasely to me.

In another thread, someone mentioned that First Republic did offer special conditions for leaving large cash deposits with them. I assume it's similar in this case, isn't it?

Essentially, you buy e.g. lower rates on a personal loan by keeping your company's cash with them, far beyond the insured amount. It's not just "I could've chosen any bank, I just wanted my money securely stashed somewhere", it's "I put my money here, knowing it's not insured beyond this amount, but I get favorable rates in return". The lines between deposit and investment get really blurry there.
Cubicles are a bit depressing, but (for me) open office plans are worse -- depressing combined with the inability to focus.
