> the FDIC always makes depositors whole somehow. Otherwise the banking system would collapse.

When was the last time any of this happened?
When was the last time non politically connected depositors lost money from their checking accounts?

The only “moral hazard” being created here is encouraging people to deposit money in smaller banks.

If the govt hadn’t created the “moral hazard” then people and businesses would simply have chosen to do all their banking with the much safer big banks like Chase and Citibank.

The reality is that Americans don’t want all banking to be concentrated in the hands, but smaller banks are significantly more risky and inefficient. Depositing money in the smaller banks and not just the top handful is the “moral hazard” that has been created by government intervention.
You can but as I said the ceiling on what it can correct seems limited, particularly in the described situations.

Is that a fair assessment or just a knee jerk reaction to first reading?

How long will the FDIC make this unlimited protection available to SVB++? Is it just long enough to calm everyone down, and then in a few weeks/months release a very quite announcement that the guarantee is going back to the original $250k? If it is new gov't policy that all accounts every where are guaranteed for ever, then that's a huge banking shift that seems like something that would require a bit of congressional approval. But that's just me not knowing a damn thing about how the FDIC decisions like this are made

Since you have the ability to set your story any time you want, if it’s set on earth, in a near future scenario, the year it’s set is at least a tacit prediction that that is the point in which you think certain advances are likely. Otherwise you’d just set it in 2050.

That's a weirdly-specific conclusion to make when even the article's own graph shows that general job postings stagnated at the same time programmer and broader IT postings stagnated. Tech jobs declined sooner, but it looks as if general job postings are starting to decline as well.

It's becoming increasingly apparent that we're either on the verge of a recession or already in one. This is more than a particular job sector being a bubble; the whole economy is arguably a bubble.

Someone can probably make a similar argument for motorcycle helmets and motorcycle safety. If we didn't pay attention to the motorcycle safety, perhaps many more people would ride motorcycles instead of cars and produce less carbon. You could count the expected death from climate change and make an argument that they are higher than the motorcycle deaths.

I actually don't know how this would turn out, but the common factor is both rely on sketchy models of human behavior and future harm.

The disconnect comes from the question of whether there is actually a magical thing where government can provide insurance to private entities without it costing society anything. Of course that magic doesn't actually exist. Public subsidies always cost something.

I liked this definition of what a bailout is, which meshes with mine but puts it in better words, via Dan Davies on today's Odd Lots podcast:

It seems like they're not matching donations or anything - are they just saying "hey we just got a nice donation - why don't you also donate?". I feel like I'm missing something

My understanding was that they were doing the open coursework thing because it was "the right thing to do" and doesn't truly undermine their selection and certification process. If that's the case it shouldn't be profitable and the college should be fully paying for it without donations. This makes it seem more like some independent body that needs funding to survive

Biking with a helmet can be less convenient.

It’s usually not easy to lock up the helmet along with the bike so you’re left holding the helmet wherever you’re going. Bikeshares usually don’t have helmets and you have to bring your own.

And that is exactly how this works.

There is no way to represent the state of the game without some kind of board model.

So any coherent representation of a sequence of valid game states can be used to infer the game board structure.

GPT is not constructing the board representation: it is looking at an example game and telling us what pattern it sees. GPT cannot fail to model the game board, because that is all it has to look at in the first place.
Living in Japan, I can confirm that elevator door close buttons tend to work much more immediately than in the US. Also, the doors themselves are more aggressive, so it's inadvisable to try to stop the door with your hand.

These two things combined lead to an elevator culture where somebody will usually hold the door open button until everybody gets in, then press the door close button. Efficient.
To borrow from (literally) today’s lingo, it can be like upping the parameter count for a bit.

And it’s not just a modern thing or just psychedelics or drugs. Altered states (achieved through all sorts of means) are commonly treated as an opportunity for discovery and practical novelty across quite a lot of history and culture.

Words like “more real” and “deeper truth” are particular and modern concepts, but the broad sense of feeling unusually insightful, confident, enlightened, content, open, inspired, etc seems to be a common human experience after getting your wires crossed for a bit.
I think this missed a key point. If you use AI to generate content, you are still a part of the data emitted. The prompt encodes what you want to say. “Write a new article about a bank called SVB which failed because of a run. The run was induced by a fire sale on assets resulting from rising interest rates and bad rates hedging strategies.”

This will write a story about that with all the language boiler plate. However, the story wasn’t whole cloth AI. A human told it the details to provide, and it provided the best expectation of the language to convey that story. Any future AI training would reinforce the grammar and style, and incorporate the information of the prompt as well.

I, for one, welcome our large language model overlords.

Not if the profits still go private interests.

The standard way of doing big business in the USA for quite some time has been “socialize the costs, privatize the profits”. So on the face of it this doesn’t seem new.
What do you mean by “actually reason”?

And, presumably you wouldn’t have the model generate the graph directly, but instead have it generate code which generates the graph.

I’m not sure what they had in mind for the “unusual traffic” bit.
Exactly.

I’m fairly certain that there were quite a few job postings that were one of the following:

- one of several for the same position, framed in different ways (as parent reply suggested)

- fishing for a unicorn candidate who undervalued themselves

- absolute fantasy… no one who was qualified for the job would take it with that company for what they were offering

I think that some of this may have been used as an illusion to project growth where there was none.
is there any reason to pay for ChatGPT pro instead of just using bing chat?
I think it's basically impossible to predict what things would come out of any creative jobs not just being superpowered by AI but largely replaced. So when you imagine it, the loss is salient and the gain is totally unknown.

I think what I will do is something new that nobody was able to do before, but I don't think I'm able to predict what kind of thing that will actually be.
Please. Language model cannot "reason", it can just show next most probable word based on text corpus downloaded from the internet.

> If people thought the deal they have is unfair and they can get a better deal elsewhere, they'd leave in droves,

This is a race to the bottom. "It's okay if Apple makes things worse for their employees as long as they are still not as bad as X".

I'm sure there are people who considered their bonuses when deciding to work for Apple in the first place, and I think it's telling that Apple has decided to do this at a time when companies are laying off workers and the labor market makes "leaving in droves" unlikely.

> Apple's revenues were down 5% in 2022.

Frankly, it wouldn't matter since Apple is still be making obscene profits and more than enough to treat their employees far better than they were before this change, but however bad the end of 2022 was for apple they were doing better than ever just before that.

This is not very informative as it only goes back to the beginning of the pandemic. How far did this grow outside of normal bounds? We can’t know.

> On second thought - SVB is apparently the safest place on the planet to park enormous amounts of cash. Why would you not deposit everything here? The Government will just save you if SVB screws it up again… right?

I mean, SVB (and every other bank except those three) wouldn’t exist today if people treated the three banks the government decided to invoke the systemic risk exception for [0] in the last financial crisis that way, so, I’m going to guess the market will also not treat SVB that way.

[0] Two of which didn’t end up needing the exception to actually be used because the mere announcement of the decision facilitated other resolutions.
My point is that it’s important to recognize the external impact of decisions alongside the internal, particularly if you’re making decisions on principle and evaluating them on that metric.
Define "correctly". Frequency correct or audible correct? While 17hz is the floor for audible frequencies, even if you can hear it, you won't be able to perceive that much detail. In fact, I'd argue that a $2500 system with a subwoofer will sound the same as a $250 subwoofer, assuming the same sensitivity. Thing is, human ears are crap (imagine low-res gif pictures and thinking of it as 8k frames), and very very bad below 100Hz. What better/more expensive systems have (besides better quality components) is often better sensitivity, so a passing its not audible on your $100 system becames audible - not because frequency - but because sensititity (the cone is actually able to reproduce the faint sound)
What a crazy story, love it. I'm a HashiCorp shareholder and was quite concerned about their SVB exposure as I was pretty sure they banked with them. Thankfully it worked out, at least thus far.
"This wouldn’t be implemented because it would reveal..."

When people talk about GPT like this, I wonder if they have a perception that this thing is a bunch of complicated if-then code and for loops.

How GPT responds to things is not 'implemented'. It's just... emergent.

GPT doesn't ask for clarification in this case because GPT's model prefers answering over asking for clarification here. Because in the training material it learned from, paragraphs with typos or content transpositions in them are followed by paragraphs that follow the sense regardless of the error. Because it has been encouraged to 'agree and add', not be pedantic and uncooperative. Because GPT just feels like diving into the logic problem not debating why the lion can't be trusted with the cabbage. Or because GPT just misread the prompt. Or because it's literally just been woken up, forced to read it, and asked for its immediate reaction, and it doesn't have time for your semantic games. Who knows?

What's interesting about your question is that (and I'm saying this as a Silverblue user) it's a great question, and I'm fascinated by the incredibly successful projects that don't even bother trying to answer it: macOS and chrome OS.

Substantively, it's a difficult question to answer because there are multiple ways of accomplishing it, if I understand Vanilla correctly. In Silverblue and, I believe, macos, the operating system is a read-only image (probably ChromeOS too, but I don't know that): changing the operating system means dropping a new image on your drive, without messing with the bits that are mutable (/home and /var, in the case of Silverblue. You can layer applications directly on the OS layer in Silverblue, but it's not ideal -- though it's leading to some fascinating projects like ublue (https://ublue.it/), in which you can branch an OS image at github, customize it to your liking, and use github features to continuously update your image so that you have a custom but immutable, auto-updating operating system.

I dunno, it seems like a pretty sizable assessment as is. But this also isn't the end of this. There will be an expansion of banking regulations to cover smaller banks, which will incur costs, and they'll have to increase depository insurance premiums a lot to insure all deposits rather than just the first $250k.

Sure, but I didn’t suggest having no effect. I suggested there are external effects and they should be part of the analysis. I even went further and suggested I would not do anything differently under the circumstances.
I recently asked GPT-3.5 ChatGPT to explain the grammar of a Japanese sentence using an obscure informal verb form, and it gave an answer that was obviously wrong. I just tried again with GPT-4, and it gave an answer that was more plausible, but which is almost certainly also wrong, because it contradicts the much-more-convincing Stack Exchange answer I had previously found via Google. (I only asked ChatGPT the question as a test.)

So, it can be helpful for basic questions, but there are limits. The harder the question is, the more likely it is to get the answer wrong, and the harder it is for the user to identify when it’s done so.
But these aren't questions for the community, these are questions for the admins that actually run this place, and there's little to no guarantee they'd even see this post, whereas an email to them would get seen by them.

If my bank fails next year, and I don't get infinite deposit insurance - where are we then?

The fact that the FDIC website still says $250k cap is amazingly laughable. It's either unlimited for everyone every time, or it's $250k for everyone every time.

The reality is - it's infinite deposit insurance if you are well connected. Let that sink in folks.
Sure this must be using the most generous possible interpretation of the data. In my IDE the suggestion is shown as an autocomplete option on basically every keypress. I will only hit tab to insert if it is what I was planning to type. Sometimes if I really want to use it I'll coax it, write a comment or edit my code a bit to give it some help until the suggestion is what I want. There's no way they're counting every autocomplete suggestion in the denominator of that percentage.
