This is not true. In the US, something of this magnitude, even if it was entirely a question of financial irregularities would trigger multiple investigations by multiple entities. Congress rarely gets involved, but the Justice department, which is the govt’s prosecutorial arm, often does (Congress getting involved would be the equivalent of a Parliamentary investigation in India…the Justice Dept investigation would be similar to the CBI, because I don’t believe India has a direct equivalent to the Justice dept).

For example, Hindenburg’s claims against Nikola motors, which was a much more straightforward case led to complete investigations by the SEC and the Justice Department. There was also an investigation by the Southern District of NY, which is the primary financial irregularities investigator in the US system.

The SEBI investigation was driven by a court request. In fact, when the courts were deliberating what steps they should require (since the govt wasn’t acting), the govt’s position was that the court should actually be requiring an investigation of Hindenburg.

But Hindenburg’s report wasn’t a simple allegation of financial fraud, but also deep political connections with the Modi govt. Allegations of that nature would have triggered not just a separate Justice dept investigation, but also likely led to separate House and Senate investigations as well.

What India is doing is clearly a joke, and the reason it’s a joke is because nothing Hindenburg has alleged was not known to pretty much everyone in India. If you tried to do any business with the Indian govt their lackeys would openly question your choice to partner with Infosys or Tata, and ask why didn’t you approach Adani instead.

It’s a blatant scam, and Adani and Modi are in an obvious and blatant unholy and corrupt alliance with each other.

If you live in India and claim that’s not true I’m sorry for your incredible naïveté. Go talk to pretty much anyone who does business with the govt in the country, or even trades regularly on the markets.
No they won't.

Chatgpt could probably write a better book than Herbert's son.

Seriously, all the dune prequels are just so bad.

If you read the first 2, 3, 4 dune books and enjoyed the (5 and 6 get really weird), and pick up one of the books published after Herbert's death, you will be very disappointed.
We're in an employee shortage, recession or no recession, the largest segment of workers in the US ever (the boomers) are retiring and the largest cohort just turned 65 the last quarter of 2022. They've been squawking about the impending recession since 2015 and here we are, they keep saying it but it doesn't happen.
There's nothing I see at Google that I didn't see at every other corporate job. They spend perhaps an extra 60 seconds about it at large meetings.
I guess I'm just confused about who specifically you're referring to. Is it the many current creators who happily post things on the internet for free? Or are you referring to just anyone who has copyrighted their work and posted it online?

If it's artists, I think you are underestimating the impact a "real" author has on a given work. We're all human, and art tends to be about capturing a shared experience. This means the viewer of the art can make assumptions about the author's humanity and (sometimes) connect with them emotionally in this regard. It's about communication _with people_ - not with an unfeeling language model that is very clearly trying to win a game of sorts.

So the artists incorporate these tools, some of them don't, new genres form, and new ideas are captured. All the artist has to do is assume they still have an audience (they will, because humans want to see art from other humans).

I think the biggest problem is that indeed, _other people_ will use these tools to trivialize the works of others and conceal the origin. But again, the artist can just ignore this world - as before. It's not like copyright law was actually ever protecting them anyways. Same argument applies to licensing on Github code; while you can get on a soapbox and complain about how your code is GPL licensed - that won't prevent hundreds of developers from copy and pasting it when they need a working solution.

The most pragmatic solution before, and now, was always "don't post things on the public internet for free if you don't want theft to occur". This is a lesson people keep having to learn since Napster.

In any case, if the end result is that artists do indeed start charging for their creations - then great! I don't really see that magically solving other issues (surplus of artists, shortage for the labor they would be good at), however.
This is too real. You cannot purchase ANY parts from Tesla to do repairs as an independent party. They simply will not sell you parts.
This assumes that AI makes a group stronger rather than weaker.
Google Docs and Photoshop Online have offline alternatives (and if you ask me, native MS Office is still the golden standard for interoperability of editable documents), and I use neither in my work or personal life.

Email is harder, but I do run my own email server. For mostly network related reasons, it is easier to run it as a cloud VM, but there's nothing about the email protocol itself that needs you to use a centralised service or host it in a particular network location.
but can it teach us our history and explain philosophy?
What I find interesting is how this will affect perceptions of test fairness. A big argument for standardized testing is that the every student is evaluated the same. Considering how people can jailbreak these AIs, I wonder if the new form of test cheating would be based around that instead with this model.
$/mo doesn't matter. $/function does.
It does not display a form field to fill in the code, regardless of if JavaScripts are enabled or disabled. (But, I figured out how to access it anyways, without much difficulty. So, the fact that the web page is not working is not much of a problem, really.)

(The web pages for displaying the existing explanations does work, though.)
Yeah there is something in the world building of Frank Herbert that never leaves you when you've read the entire series.

I also like that there are implied abuse of the Bulterian bible later in the series... The stuff going on on Ix and the Tleilaxus' interpretation of the code.
vSphere 7u3k (both esxi and vcenter). And it was the ISO installer for Purple. I tried downloading both via torrent & direct, uploaded to datastore, attached to a newly created VM and nothing. I'll try attaching it to an already working Linux box and see if it shows up there to rule out environment issues if possible. I'll open a ticket as well. Thanks!
There is no magic recipe for success and frequently people find success via luck, hacks, etc.

In my experience, telling passionate potential founders if they never try they’ll never succeed leads to dark patterns in more than a few situations; for example, currently aware of a founder that left a good job to throw money and time at a startup even he clearly explained himself is doomed to fail. Personally seen people treat startups like a gambling addictions, pipe dreams that are clearly not based on any objective observable reality, etc.

In fact, comment you replied to referred to FedEx founder story of them gambling in Vegas to save the company with the last of the company’s funds. This is not the type of healthy, level headed, culture the startup community needs.
This is precisely what happens though. Mentats, Guild Navigators, the Bene *s. Instead of machines they evolved people.
I agree to some extent. But there are redundancies that are inherently beneficial and make code more robust and readable, like separating interface from implementation (where some declarative elements have to be repeated), or explicit type annotations instead of full-program type inference. There are also strictly necessary redundancies, like when you pattern-match an ADT, you repeat its declared structure. For desirable or necessary redundancies like that, AI code completion can still save time.

Intelligent unit test creation (if it is indeed intelligent) is also a good use-case. Not to relieve the programmer from thinking, but to save typing and to point out potentially useful tests that you might not have thought of.
The boilerplate makes it readable by humans.

I've long held the first Dune novel high on my list of good books, but only recently I've gone through the following 6 (as audiobooks), and I highly recommend them. The scale of ideas and events absolutely dwarfs the first novel.

Disney Animator REACTS to AI Animation - https://youtu.be/xm7BwEsdVbQ

This is Aaron Blaise ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Blaise ) reacting to the Corridor Crew AI animation video.

(please pardon the copy of the auto-transcribe)

It concludes with:

> in the entertainment industry the
animation industry the expressiveness
the ability to create new films and new
ideas has exploded and as an end result
has created actually more jobs and
budgets have actually gone up if you
look at the budgets now compared to what
they were back in the 90s they're
doubled

> ...

> it's something that people want to go to
and laugh and cry and be scared and be
moved and and learn something from
those are the things that people are
going to go and watch and
um if you can do that then the
technology will follow the technology
will create new jobs I'll guarantee you
I've seen it happen I've been I've been
doing this for 35 years and I've seen it
happen I've gone through it a couple of
times

> so at the end of the day do I think it's
a threat? No I don't think it's a threat
I think it's exciting I think it's
really exciting so I'm just going to sit
here I'm going to sit here and continue
drawing on my hand-drawn animated short
snow bear and I want you to go out
embrace the technology embrace the
things that are new see how you can
express yourselves through them put some
beauty back into the world and I'll talk
to you next time thanks
out of curiosity, have you tried doing this with bingchat?
Yeah, you can't really expect the Enforcement Directorate to investigate this. They are really busy dealing with the opposition: https://wap.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/ed...

I don't know why people choose to pretend that investigative agencies in India are independent or that they are not used by executive for political ends.

But I do know why people like to pretend that Adani doesn't have a nexus with current dispensation.

GPT-4 API Pricing Analysis
I get those calls from my local (Canadian) branch, and I've noticed a correlation with having an unusually large balance. (In fact, I'm expecting such a call in the next few days since I have a new car worth of cash in my account.) It's usually almost immediately apparent that they want to "help" me invest, aka. buy their high fee mutual funds.

Alas, I don't think Tarsnap has ever had such calls from my bank -- I guess it doesn't keep enough cash for them to consider it an exceptional small business account -- but I have had such calls from PayPal... interestingly, not correlated with anything I've noticed, so maybe PayPal is just calling everyone in Tarsnap's volume range on a schedule. Similarly, I get regular "check in" emails from AWS... the most recent one offering a discount ticket to re:invent.

I don't think I've ever had any such calls from Stripe. Now I'm starting to feel unappreciated!
It's powered by an app apparently. Could be interesting to connect it to GPT-4 (e.g., someone asks you a question and then you could just tell them the answer from GPT.)

Or, if it had OCR capabilities, you could just hold a sheet of paper in front of yourself and say "what's this?" and it would explain the text to you.
Considering the LLaMA release, I’d guess the end of the week.
KPMG Stands by Audits of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank
Wouldn't it be a good idea not to load nukes on it until at least after its first test flight?

Or maybe to have a valid title to the article, such as "US Air Force releases new images of B-21 Raider bomber Capable of Carrying Nukes"

Either way, It's a waste of money as modern missiles can do that job far more effectively and more cheaply without needing to risk any pilots.
I have to agree. When I was younger I read the Dune series cover to cover, and it was almost transcending for my young self.

I tried the prequels, book 1, never finished. I guess magic does not transcend the human flesh.
I was in SF/MV from 2012-2015 and then back in California for most of 2022, so I also spent a lot of time in both places.

It must come down to timing and who we each met over the past decade. YC certainly hasn’t been adverse to crypto startups: https://techcrunch.com/2022/09/07/y-combinator-crypto-invest...
For a lot of Indians Arranged Marriage tends to more like introductions from friends except you replace friends with your family.

No one forced my Mother to marry my Father. There was a period where they just talked and got to know each other. She could have said no. Nor did she have to compromise on her career. It was not a business transaction where my Father went to a supermarket to get one wife to cook and bear sons.

It looks like you've read about an Arranged marriage that went bad in a news article and seem to have decided that you know all that's there to it.
I guess there's a lot of things I take for granted that Americans have to pay for. I have to pay about $30 for a GP or specialist appt. And about $30 monthly in meds. That's 2 scrips that are completely free and one generic off-label that's completely out of pocket.

And that's it. Overnight admissions to more or less any health institution is completely free of charge(dental care is a whole other ballgame though, it's not socialised very much yet for adults, though slowly getting there). Similarly if I had kids, future tuition would not be an issue since Norwegian universities don't have tuition.

Thinking about it more it wouldn't be possible for me to live as frugally as I do in the US. Not without sacrificing health care.

To put my frugality in context:

Rent is ~$1K/mo(including electricity and fiber internet), which is about 60% of my income(or rather, 60% of 1/12 of what I earned total last year after taxes. It's complicated since I only take short-term consultancies through friends if they look fun. Most of the time I don't work, except on passion projects). That rent gets me a ~50sq. meter basement apartment on the outskirts of oslo, right on the edge of a beautiful river valley in an affluent neighbourhood. Apartment is nice, the juxtaposition of suburb and wilderness is ideal for my outside cat, who has a cat flap and is almost entirely independent if I fill his bowls once or twice a day. I still manage to afford good pet insurance, and a little saving headroom which I split 50/50 into a rainy day fund and fairly risky(but tiny amounts, so it doesn't feel so scary), cheap stocks. 4x so far. I save half my stock returns and reinvest the rest.

I buy dry foods in bulk, perishables at a discount. My annual transportation budget is about $300(public or legs only).

I guess you could say if SVers are in a high cost, high income bubble, I exist in the opposite cut every cent because I like the challenge and I hate working bubble. So I get pretty flabbergasted sometimes when exposed to the numbers floating around the SV bubble.

Mind you Oslo is the most expensive part of Norway in terms of property; I could go rural and probably decimate my rent but I'm too urban for that.
UBI is good within a libertarian framework.

ChatGPT isn't a person, it's not supposed to make a point.

The response actually gives you both sides of the coin. If you want, you could ask it to speak more about one side or the other. Then you have to make the decision which argument is stronger.

ChatGPT is an advanced bot, not a basic human. It doesn't think like we do in the form of stories and conclusions. You're not going to get it to form an argument unless you tell it to.

Would you be mad at an encyclopedia for not choosing a side?
Interesting reply, thanks.
You are referring to insured sweep accounts?

It’s also something that I have only learned this weekend although I was never in a position to need one

That's true a lot of places, but Ars writers actually write their own headlines. In fact they're required to write two, and the CMS will A/B test them for an hour before picking a winner. You can tell which one is the "A hed" because it's in the URL. This one is the A hed, so the author probably preferred this over the other one. (Not sure what it was.)
Humans are mammals, and our basic drives are those of mammals. Evolution over millions of years has made us what we are. Why would you think that other intelligent beings not subject to those same forces would feel and act in any way like mammals? Assuming that other intelligences would be just like us is an example of the typical mind fallacy.
No one is paying book value for a $100 bond that’s paying 1.5% for the next 10 years when they can give the govt those $100 and get 3% instead.

except the study does not test for that. it somewhat interestingly shows that distinct vocabulary gets used for reds and whites once that context is established by a visual cue.
that doesn't however mean no systematic difference between reds and whites can be detected.

Hotwire allows you to handle front-end page/view updates and state from the server instead of relying on an SPA framework. Rails sends the minimal amount of JS to update the page without a full reload and for many use cases it's all you need. When you click a link configured with Hotwire turbolinks intercepts the call, fetches the new content from Rails and strips out everything except the body tag and its contents then uses that, with a sprinkling of JS, to update the page/view.

I’m just a parent, not a medical professional, whose infant went through a lot of blood work with multiple parameters very out of range. It took five or six primary care physicians, six months, and probably twenty five labs to figure it out. The helpful recommendation in that case would have been something like “given the trend & relationship of these six out of range parameters, these other three specific blood tests could support or reject conditions X, Y, and Z”, e.g. moving beyond the cbc and so forth.

Perhaps it’s simple for most patients, but we learned a large number of the markers are really just second order effects. For example, concerning readings on your liver enzymes can mean a million different things, and are only useful when integrated with other data to develop a hypothesis on the root cause.
