How to stop a random ware attack on an old Android
Years ago I was at those sights that well I should not have been on. Anytime my droid froze with a message something about paying…. I simply took the battery out. Waited a few minutes. Put the battery back in and…..went back to those websites.

Other times I would disable Jave.

Yes some websites didn’t work. But there are plenty that do.

Lastly i am still a baby when it comes to code. Pistons valves mechanical stuff I know.

But some day when I grow up. I’d have 3 servers.

The 1st can’t get on the internet. Even if Tom Cruise Ethan Hunt wanted to hack it. He can’t. There are no ports.

The 2nd Server is a middle man or woman. It is a virtual computer and a maze. When any corrupt covert code goes into this Server. That code will excite its intentions inside a virtual computer. The Server will watch the code. If the code does anything that is not exactly in line with what has programmed in the system. It gets quarantined.

See if Microsoft and Apple were smart-er………and the Feds were sneaker. They could fix their computers and the internet to pinpoint any hacker hacking anyone’s computer.

Even if the hacker is using every computer in every country. They will be found quickly.

All radios went digital years ago for a reason. But I’m just a wannabe know it all.

Finally the 3rd Server has nothing really on it. It is the go between. When you buy something from Microsoft. The order goes through tge 1st 2 servers in a particular way. And at a particular speed.

So if Macho Man Savage hacked my Servers. My little snitch would see Dana or data headed toward the door.

Or put another way. If a server - computer is designed so that data can speed up and go slow and go back and go forward and stop and or can’t flow freely at a high rate of speed out of any server.

If the hacker has not programmed in these variances. Then all of that data can’t leave server number 3

Jumping back in time. Garage door openers were great until someone invented devices that could steal your code out of the air.

Then be replayed to open your garage door.

So programmers created code jumping technologies. The codes change every time.

So even if you record the code going through the air it won’t open the garage door when it’s replayed.

** I’d like to ad just one other tip. Years ago when I was traveling. Sometimes I would get a pop up telling me that I was not on the internet while I was! In fact on the internet watching a movie.

In the past. I could eliminate this problem by removing the battery and waiting a few minutes. Then the pop up would be gone and all would be good.

I hope this helps. Oh I forgot! Apple and Android won’t let us remove our batteries any more.

WTF’

I guess once they make it. They don’t test it. To perfect it. They just make it and forget about it.
I feel the difference is that to a first approximation, ai alignment folks tend to be grey tribe and ai ethics people tend to be blue or rainbow tribe.

The schism isn't a technical disagreement about ai, it's a disagreement between subcultures about what values are important.
Back when I was a kid, I swore that using a different MP3 decoder in Winamp (libmpg123.dll I think?) had a much better soundstage and bass extension than the default one.

I like to think that isn’t the same madness as thinking a different memcpy, because I figured different implementations would map different inputs to different outputs and thus could definitely affect the sound, but any context or knowledge would be appreciated!

This. A while ago Gitlab was really the better option: mostly free and more features (CI, project management...). Github caught up on features and price so why bother going against the network effect when the alternative is not even better?

I mean, I'd push back a little bit on that statement but not much, 13B is crazy nice even a 4bit on a 5 year old graphics card. I was able to get it to pretend to be a VM, cat some code into a file, and then pretend it executed the code and it returned correct answers on the first try. I can't wait to try 30B and 65B when I can get access to hardware large enough.

Ask HN: What's Your Approach to a New FE Web Project?
I am just curious how other developers start their projects from scratch/what's their workflow like?

After getting the design handoff from the designer, and after setting up your framework of choice, how do you usually start? Are there any base styles you apply to all projects? Do you start creating components right away? Or develop the pages first then move on to seperating the components out?
I didn’t reply to you so I’m not sure why you’re victimizing yourself here.

I will say every time I’ve engaged someone here who got defensive about not being a socialist, even when I never implied they were, usually turned out to have heavy sympathy for socialist and communist ideals. To the point where it would be inappropriate to call them anything but a socialist.

Again, I never engaged with you at all in this conversation you inserted yourself into a conversation and got upset about something that had little to do with you.
Humans use tools, since sharpened rocks, for some ends. Nothing new under the sun with the computer, or with AI.

This is really interesting, thank you for the reference!

Having worked more with images based NN than language models before, I wonder: are LLM inherently more suited to aggressive quantisation, due to their very large size? I see people suggesting here 4b is pretty good, and 3b should be the target.

I remember ResNets etc can of course also be quantized, and up to 8-6b you get pretty good results with very little effort, with low-ish degradation in performance. Trying to go down to 4b is more challenging, though this paper claims with quantisation aware training 4b is possible indeed, but that means a lot of dedicate training compute needed to get to 4b (not just finetuning post-training): https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.03536

Analysis of distances between London's bus stops
A much more interesting UK legal concept is ‘invitation to treat’. Did you know that you can be contractually bound by things you say in adverts and that promises made in adverts can override conflicting terms of service? E.g a train company advertises a timetable and allows you to buy open return tickets which allow you to travel on any train. You rely on an advertised train but it’s delayed and you miss a connecting train to, say, a ferry. That’s a breach of contract and the train company has to put you right; put you up in a hotel until the next ferry or put you in a taxi instead of the missed connection so you don’t miss the ferry. (Both of which have been done for me by train companies). This is a pretty complicated area of contract law and where there is statutory legislation governing what you are owed, e.g EU flight compensation, this can override contract law. So definitely consult a professional lawyer when negotiating this stuff.
If you scored worse than a coin flip, then you are successfully able to distinguish 320kbps from lossless, which is a rare feat in human beings! (Just invert your answer for the correct one.)

If you cannot distinguish, you will be the same as a coin flip; i.e. random.

From what I understood they used 175 seed tasks as an example for da-vinci which then generated the 52K instructions used to fine-tune LLama.

What I don't understand is how did they achieve giving this context to GPT, since afaik the context window is just 2048 tokens? It seems that it's not fine-tuning, but few-shot.

You can recover from a panic though? I don't think you're required to call resume_unwind after catch_unwind. The underlying machinery is the same as C++ exceptions, so there's no reason that wouldn't work.

Obviously this is not something you're encouraged to do often, but there's applications where it might be reasonable.
The delay in increment/decrement example is not acceptable for a web UI that is expected to update instantly. I believe it should be less than 150ms to become noticeable for the user.
They are scooping up entire ecosystems from the sea floor and grinding them up to feed farmed fish. With rare exception, fish farming should be viewed as a way to allow humans to (inefficiently) eat the entire marine ecosystem.

I guess at some point most of us will have to yell at clouds. Whether that changes anything or not remains debatable.

I think the biggest challenge we have today is that building on SaaS and huge dependency charts is very attractive to somebody eager to get an idea off the ground. It has a typically low barrier to entry (as long as you have a PayPal account) and you don’t have to deal with “low level stuff”. Unfortunately it typically also comes with vendor lock in issues but when you realise that you are already way too far down the road.

The fun thing is, anybody with a little bit of guy and docker know how can have a better developer experience in hosting their web projects on a VM so maybe this is an issue of fundamentals?

If Twitter doesn't work (well), I recommend nitter.net (or other instances of Nitter, it's open source software). Addons are available for various browsers to automatically redirect.

Nitter is meant as a privacy-friendly Twitter front-end, but I mainly use it because Twitter takes literal seconds to load a 280 character post and Nitter works almost instantly. As an added bonus, it doesn't rely on Javascript to render.

change and modify some times have different meanings in legal systems and can apply to versioning of the laws (don't know if that is the case here)

as an example you might say Law X section 7 says
Uber drivers are contractors.

In some systems a change would be to remove this provision or to say the opposite.

a modification might be to add:

The definition of contractor will follow the amended definition of contractor as in Law Y Section 9 - subsection Uber contractors.
Man, I resent that corporations have similar rights as people but if they were actually treated as people, they wouldn’t just be fined, they would be thrown in corporate jail where all operations cease. I wonder how quickly corporate responsibility would improve if that were the case?
No, it's not impossible. You don't need to store all state on chain. You will just need to store a hash of the off-chain data on chain. The supplemental off-chain data can be stored in standardized storage systems, which they themselves might be highly distributed and standardized. (e.g. IPFS)

Non partisan reasons to dislike Twitter as a tool of communication were posted before you made this comment.

Anyway, your experience of any social media depends on how you curate it. For example I only follow professional photographers on Instagram so that's the only kind of content I see there.

I am very much with you on this but I think the biggest hurdle in this theory is that introducing such regulation would create a de-facto hostile innovation environment in that jurisdiction. And no regulator will lightheartedly put themselves into the position of being the guy that “drove away all the innovators/startups/research/business”
Is there any “video first” email platform?
I usually use loom to record a guidance for my product, then embed it in email and send it to my customers, but most of my emails were banned by server( does it mean that video looks too spammy?). So I want to know if there’s a way to send video messages via email without being banned by the server?
Beside, I really don’t like loom’s interface and interaction. I want something like an email system, which there will be an inbox/outbox tells the video sent by me our shared with me in the form of thread, I mean, it’s like a “video first” email platform for someone like me who rely on video messages too much.
The common ~ 150+ year old peppercorn leases that I've seen date back to the early days of our state capital city when then outer limits farm land was bequeathed by the 'owner'|occupying colonists on their death - some directly to their family, some to the local church, and several plots to the local city as "designated land" on a peppercorn contract.

Eg: This large park [1] is leased for a peppercorn a year to the city on the absolute proviso it be used as a park open to all otherwise the lease is terminated and the park reverts back to the estate of the bequeathing family.

Now, there's a can of worms some years and generations down the track - should the usage alter (or the peppercorns fail to be delivered to the lawyers) the grand-grand-grand children will be bunfighting over some serious now near inner city real estate.

>its kids trying to make money

I'm sympathetic to this, but kids making money should not undermine adults trying to make a living. I'm fine with underaged kids working, but they should be documented and paid 2x/3x the rate, with everything above minimum wage held until they turn 18 to be used for education or living.

> The elimination of the need for municipalities to maintain proprietary databases to hold property deeds

Of course it doesn't eliminate the need. Who's going to enter those records and enforce them?

> Standardized and globally interoperable property records across municipalities and potentially countries

Just because it's on blockchain doesn't mean it's standardised, or interoperable.

> Easy to prove and verify ownership of properties, which could be used to grant access to third party services for homeowners.

Yup. Until a corrupt government official puts his friend as the owner of your house and evicts you. Look, the proof is in the blockchain, and it's irrefutable, and cannot be amended.

I used this small code snippet to produce 1M ints into a file and threw dieharder on the file, and while one run said one test was WEAK, the second run (on another machine) said the output PASSED all tests, so indeed it seems to be a decent PRNG, as far as small testing can tell.

Quite interesting for such a small subroutine.
Very similar what happened to Russia when they believe(d) their own propaganda - getting to Kiev in 3 days and La Manche in a year.

Year goes by and they have troubles to take regional city of 70k people and only reason why China did not take over Eastern Siberia yet is that Russians might have few working nukes. But nobody actually knows if there are any working nukes.
> That is someone who builds things in the physical world, often things that kill people if they fall over or crash.

Building contractors do that too, but they're not engineers.

I would say engineering is more about the design process than the actual physical making. Indeed, there usually is, eventually, intended to be a tangible result of the process, be it a bridge, ship, hairdryer, silicon wafer or container of purified chemicals. However, not all engineering has to involve making a new thing to be engineering, it can also be more efficient or effective processes that contribute to, but are not themselves, production.
I summarized my thoughts on this about two month ago on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/10h6l7e/comment/j5x...). Here the recap:

- NiceGUI was initially build for accessing and controlling hardware as shown in our webcam demo); I'm not sure how it would be done with Pynecone

- NiceGUI encourages the use of standard Python (callbacks, if-statements,..), Pynecone on the other hand uses explicit State classes and provides constructs like pc.cond and pc.foreach.

- NiceGUI uses Vue/Quasar for the frontend while Pynecone is build on NextJS

- NiceGUI generates HTML/JS/CSS via templates on the fly while Pynceone has an explicit compile step; so NiceGUI can be run with normal "Python" instead of using a command like "pc"

- while both frameworks use FastAPI for the backend, in NiceGUI you can actually use your own App and simply extend it with NiceGUI to provide additional UI; Pynecone hides FastAPI which makes it harder to provide other API endpoints (for example to serve images from memory instead of files).

Uber taxis have died in my UK city. The quality was always weak compared to the very good taxi services which was perfectly fine pre-Uber. Uber had vouchers and a marketing push that made it a thing but people can't get rides now. Rental electric scooters are dominant now.

Food delivery use is declining with the cost of living problems people are facing. Anecdotally I saw it was making people feel bad so it's a habit people have wanted to break - junk food, cold, missing items and paying the price of a week's worth of groceries... ugh... it made people hate themselves but they kept doing it because the convenience was like a drug.

Where I live in the city, everyone has a dozen food outlets within a five minute walk so it was never a rational choice.

There has recently been a big problem in London for the elderly - many bus stops have been removed and replaced with bicycle lanes, meaning the elderly have to move a considerable distance to their nearest bus stop.
