Can you please stop with the "so you are saying that..."? Not only is a poor form of conversation, it makes you look like you are being dishonest or an idiot. Or both.

Let me spell it out: I think that the cost of trying to police "copyright violations" far outweighs any of the potential losses and damages that might be incurred for losing such "protections". This is not the case for murder. The cost of life is incalculable, so any measures to prevent loss of life is justifiable.

Laws that try to protect citizens from physical harm and are meant to preserve human life are of a completely different nature than "copyright violation". It's perfectly reasonable to argue for decriminalization of copyright infringement without having to accept that anything should be decriminalized.

To go further: I see no moral justification to have copyright infringement as a violation worthy of criminal persecution. I believe that "intellectual property" is a misnomer and I think that any type of current laws are meant only to protect large corporations and are not made with the best interests of society in general.

Is that enough for you, or are you going to continue pushing false slippery slopes?
I agree, but alas tis the motions that are followed. OpenAI went from singing praises of open-sourcing AI to now flagellating themselves for having done so [1]. Won't do much unless like the author says "a collective, enforceable decision must be made to slow the development of these technologies" which like yeah...good luck with that.

I would say that if they understood radiation more at the time, perhaps they would have feared it more, rather than less. Clearly the researchers at the time weren't acting with as much caution around radioactivity as we would today, with our knowledge. A lack of understanding lead to not fearing radiation enough.

Same goes for Roentgen and the popularity of frivolous, high-powered X-ray imaging following his invention.

From the PR (https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/51669):

> New compiler options

> - allowImportingTsExtensions: Allow imports to include TypeScript file extensions. Requires '--moduleResolution bundler' and either '--noEmit' or '--emitDeclarationOnly' to be set.

To be clear, I'm not using tsc to build code for Deno. I've got module X which imports module Y, neither of which have any platform-specific dependencies. Right now if module X imports Y with the .ts extension, Deno can import X but tsc can't. If module X imports Y without the .ts extension, tsc can import X but Deno can't. With this compiler option, I should be able to include the .ts extension and allow both to (independently) import the same code

Sorry but that is absolutely not true.
I have recently switched to a M1 Mac Mini, and just have each family member sign in to that using Remote Desktop. It brings the added bonus of working as a content cache for anything iCloud.

My only gripe is that it downloads the shared photo album (new in iOS 16) once for each account, and when your photo library is 1.8TB, that suddenly becomes a lot of wasted space. When it comes to backing it up the backup software deduplicates the data, but not for the initial storage.

I really wish Apple would implement some kind of method for backing up photos stored in the cloud without the need for mirroring them.

Before the M1 I was using iCloud photo downloader ( https://github.com/icloud-photos-downloader/icloud_photos_do... ) on a Raspberry Pi 4 which also worked well, but in the end I got tired of iCloud credentials expiring every ~90 days, requiring each family member to login again through a console.

Considering the M1 idles at roughly 20% more than a RPi4 (M1 at 4.5W) it was an easy sell. I just got the cheapest model and added a large USB drive. Using a Mac also gives you the possibility of using something like Backblaze Personal with unlimited backup storage, if that’s your thing :-)

I use Healthchecks.IO ( https://healthchecks.io/ ) to keep an “eye” on the backup status (and other more mundane tasks like monitoring the power state of my summerhouse)
If the worry about sufficiently developed technology is valid, then how is the intelligence of a living species not its own Great Filter? The technology relates to discoveries that have only recently come to light based on properties of the world. So far there's nothing effectively stopping some other species develops their own culture, then learns writing, then learns how to automate writing by feeding back in its own writing to a computer, just because it's not impossible. Even with the international treaties I'm pessimistic that nuclear proliferation will be reversed.

I sometimes feel like the same qualities that have allowed humanity to progress ensure that progress is fated to never end. If even a hundred people are left on Earth after the nuclear war, one of their descendents thousands of years later could still rediscover nuclear science, even if by first principles, because why wouldn't they? What can stop every last one of us from trying to better ourselves for our own good?

No.. I do not believe that because I would do something it means everyone should do the same. What an odd conclusion! I believe that when people get fired up they often miss out key little nuggets of useful information.

I had the option to respond or not, I decided to do so.

Just as OP had the same option and decided to do so. Massive shocker there was missing information that would help explain things. My mind is blown. Who could have predicted it. Gosh.

I won't ask OP to ask their pal what they were doing, hacker news might think I'm just being uncouth.

Unfortunately the thread was flagged ages ago and OP won't get any useful information even though we now know it was their friend's account that was shut down and they were done by association.

Why sleeper trains are being revived across Europe
As I understand it, the ordinary way FDIC resolves a situation like this is that they simply have the failing bank acquired by a peer bank (a bank of generally the same size and structure), which then takes over the depositor obligations. So it's not as if the ordinary course is that uninsured deposits get zeroed out; it's just that the mechanism FDIC is using is novel and abrupt.

>Could you expand on that comment. Do they include attribution to the authors (as they have in blenders license) and all notices that refer to the license?

I don't know.

I'm not entirely sure which libraries licenses are alleged to have been infringed upon. The string "blen" doesn't appear in the Licenses.docx file. There are another ~10 license text files in that folder for libraries that might be Blender-flavored.

>...source code along with executable, or a written offer for source code... Do they follow the remaining conditions?

Again, I can't say, I'm not sure how to search for it without getting false positives and I'm not committed enough to read through that much licensing text.

I agree with my sibling commenter on his assertion that including the license (that mandates furnishing source code on request) is itself an offer to furnish source code on request, but I understand where you're coming from if you don't.

Interesting side note, in the Licenses.docx file there's also a copy of the GNU Affero GPL3 license. I've no idea what they've included that uses that license, but I think the possibility that they've included AGPL3 licensed code could be much messier.

The mentioning of school slights and "failures" seems disturbingly petty. It concerns me that someone remembers this kind of stuff as some sort of personal failure. He didn't "fail", as much as his 18 year old self did or was just unlucky. What does that matter?
This is what separates most humans from robots right?: The fact that I can say something without using the pedantic technical definition and for a human with normal intelligence to still know what I'm talking about.

I am in agreement with you. I think there is a danger in them over-complicating the language and everyone suffering as a result. I include regular javascript in this too, as Decorators appear to be coming to JS as well. I wasn't sure how to word this thought, but becoming a quirky Java is a good way of putting it.
Lets be fair too.

When the USA was early on, before and during the War of Independence, we routinely ignored the set of IP laws from European countries.

https://eh.net/encyclopedia/an-economic-history-of-copyright...

And China DOES enforce IP laws in China. They just don't enforce USA copyright laws, cause it's not the USA. And The USA doesn't enforce Chinese IP laws.

Eventually, the IP laws will be mutually respected. It'll take time. But in the meantime, this is more a trade dispute. That means that larger vendors need to be legally forced to stop shipment and sale of said violating items, and CBP needs to do more in stopping shipments coming in-country.

That's the kind of pay that would make people very rich in some parts of the globe, and upper-middle class in many parts of Europe. Admirable of them that they want to create new rich people in poor places.

Traditionally I think the line with softcore was that it didn’t directly show penetration or fluids.
I have a strange take - I think Typescript types are better most other languages, including Java, C++ and Go. It's strange since TypeScript is adding types to a weakly typed language.

If we could push JavaScript performance to be another order of magnitude faster it wouldn't be necessary to use other languages, imho. Of course, pushing it that far without effectively creating a new one would be difficult, to say the least.

A regulatory regime that makes depositors whole when a bank fails due to not managing their interest rate risk appropriately but not when they mismanage their credit risk feels even stranger than just admitting that the fdic cares more about some depositors than others.
We have had large scale, opaque information systems processing data and making decisions that can't be reduced to any one person's consciousness for centuries. They have recently been made denser and faster and more powerful by the advent of digital computers and networks.

I'm not worried about chatbots. I think larger trends that have been de-humanizing us, alienating us from the fruits of our labor and harshly creating hellish conditions for people who made nothing to deserve them, without any one person making such designs. The fact that some people chose to make it worse has limited impact compared to the large scale patterns.

AI, as in forms of intelligence produced by human effort, is definitely taking over since societies got too complex to be effectively governed by monarchs about 300 years ago. Our future is not one of individual emancipation. We are and will be playthings of forces we don't comprehend, unless we can go back to living in small scale communities able to survive off the land.

I don't prefer one state over the other. Both are transitory.
Not OP, but the answer for me would be: at the bottom of a (surprisingly small) hill, in a place that gets snow once in a while.
The obsession is because we are going to anthromorphise it, and then we're going to put it in charge of important things in our lives:

Which schools we go to, which jobs we get, what ails us, etc.

We will use AI to filter or select candidates for university applications, we will use AI to filter or select candidates for job applications. It's much cheaper to throw a person at GPT-X than actually "waste" an hour or two interviewing.

We will outsource medical diagnostics to AI, and one day we will put them in charge of weapons systems. We will excuse it as either cost-cutting or "in place of where there would be statistical filters anyway".

Ultimately it doesn't, as you say, matter what AI says it wants. And perhaps it can't "want" anything, but there is an expression, a tendency for how it will behave and act, that we can describe as desire. And it's helpful for us to try to understand that.

I agree. And I should really look into the full work...
Great work! In your medium post, in the Post-processing section (step 1) you wrote: "If so, we re-run the evaluation prompt and force content_contains_answer to be false." I assume you do this forcing by adding 'false' to the prompt (as if GPT completed it), just like to seed the JSON structure itself. Could you explain what you do with the justification in that case? Use it in the same way as if the result was 'false' in the first place?

Do you have some stats on how often this even happens? In my experience, I have rarely seen these logprob thresholds actually get activated, because for binary token choices the probability of one of them is almost always >95%, but maybe this is because my prompts were not set correctly.
I wonder why that didn't happen in this case? Perhaps fear that would just trigger a run on the acquiring bank?

At the least, Twitch has a de facto monopoly in the gaming niche, to the point that the only way YouTube/Facebook/Microsoft could compete at all was with exclusivity contracts, which didn't even work as it didn't bring other streamers to the platform.

Encouraging the development of highly interactive programs like TPP isn't gaming specific either.

Not the GP but it's not "doxxing" to point out someone has a conflict of interest, and it's important that we all be open about our potential biases when discussing topics like this. And perhaps even more important is that hiding these potential biases get called out to disincentivize bad actors.
No, they don't, right? They simply hold them to maturity.

The reason a $100 par bond paying 2% sells for (I don't know, say) $87 when interest rates are (I don't know, say) 5% isn't that the original bond is impaired. It's that the same $100 buys you a bond that pays 3% better, so nobody will buy the bond without a discount.

But the bank doesn't normally sell the bond to begin with. That's why people say banks "borrow short and lend long". What the bank is supposed to do is hold the bond until it matures and is paid back in full. The only reason SVB can't do that is that all its depositors simultaneously demanded their money bank, so it couldn't wait the bonds out. But other institutions can do that waiting.

Have the FDIC rates actually changed or is this a hypothetical. It's relevant because the FDIC limit has not actually increased--it's still de jure $250K. The fact that the FDIC said they would cover 100% of deposits at SBV could be related to the fact they weren't actually insolvent and could have covered the run if given enough time to liquidate assets.

I would argue that they didn't proliferate due to high barriers to entry. I'm sure any "rogue" states that at one point would be ruled by extremists, would invest in those if it would give them a competitive advantage.

There's no such thing. Even the paragons of neutral and factual reporting, like AP or Reuters, do at the very list have an editorial bias on what they do and do not report, and in what detail.

Lol

> We really should use AI to write unbiased news articles and fire all the journalists who can’t get rid of their biases. The world would overnight be a better place.

Outstanding idea. Let's get rid of the ability of humans to present thoughts and opinions, and delegate that to chatbots controlled by some tech-bro's definition of "acceptable speech". Truly an inspired idea.
Of these, the AI equipped sheets is the one I'm most excited about. Being able to quickly see insights by just saying things like, "what's the average % change of all my stocks from FY 2022-FY2023?" is going to be such a superpower.
