Because the best part about unix/linux is that everything is a file (or more broadly, everything are files and folders) and this is congruent with that.

The more I program, the more I appreciate:

- 1. tools that are extremely small and functional and can be composed together (re: unix pipes, cat foo | grep bar)

- 2. things that are just files and folders on disk, so that they can get introspected, moved to different disks, symlinked, put on FUSE filesystems, etc. The common interface of file or folder is very flexible.

While this is federal level, it does help close a common loophole used by states to 'hide' the money.

Agent of the state seizes the money, state sends it to feds, gets back 'clean' money from feds; When you go to sue to get your money back, the state says 'whoopsie, the feds have it, so you need to go sue them' and the feds respond with 'naw, you gotta sue the state, they seized your money'.

I think trying to avoid any challenges by states is the pragmatic approach here. Asset forfeiture has some really perverse incentives, and basically everyone involved except the person whose money is seized has some incentive to ensure the money remains seized. If this bill even makes it to law, expect it to get challenged in court very quickly; it make sense to try to minimize the attack surface.
Thank you for your input!

We are not using homomorphic encryption as it would be too slow. We are working on hosting OpenChatKit inside a secure enclave that benefits from hardware isolation to protect data while it is in clear for the application of the AI model.

We have developed an attestation system that does not rely on Cloud providers, but is closer to the ones provided by hardware provider, for instance Intel. You can find more about our attestation here: https://blindai-preview.mithrilsecurity.io/en/latest/docs/ad...

The goal of our work is to provide a more transparent and privacy-friendly interface for people working in sensitive industries to leverage LLMs. With the attestation mechanism, technical proofs can be given regarding the fact that data will not be used for any other purpose than inference.
From my experience with the Hashi stack, I don't think it's a coincidence that Fly has a lot of downtime and are a major Hashi user. Terraform makes excellent bait though.

Still love using Fly, please add static assets hosting/CDN.
There are a variety of "overlays" springing up for Nix that might become what docker did for lxc containers:

You're absolutely right! But bloat is also incredibly common, especially when "task" in this case might describe "multi-team project." Can it get done in 30 days? Of course! Might you already have dozens of high-priority projects to deliver in the next 30 days with stakeholders screaming at you every day for updates? Absolutely!
Their FAQ actually brings this up, but...

> You might find other AI APIs available online. Those companies might put in place encryption in transit or at rest, but the companies running those APIs end up decrypting your data to apply their model.

> This means they eventually see all data you send to them, could leverage it for their interest, or get your data compromised without your knowledge!

> BlindAI API uses cutting-edge encryption mechanisms with secure enclaves so that even our admins cannot see the data sent to our AI models, and therefore cannot compromise our users' data.

Same question, what do they mean by a secure enclave? Homomorphic encryption is the only way that I can think of to really securely do this? Unless maybe they have decryption built into the LLM somehow so it only gets decrypted in RAM? But that still seems like it shouldn't be treated as E2EE.

E2EE means something, it shouldn't be used this lightly if all they mean is that they're promising not to touch the data on a machine.

I feel like I need to see a lot more details before I get excited about this.

More to the point, given the progress happening on LLaMa right now, it's hard to get excited about even homorphic encrypted models, because I strongly suspect that on-device/on-premise models are going to end up being the better solution for data privacy. This mattered more before it was possible to run an LLM on a high-end laptop.

They say that, but they're also being actively supported by Hashicorp right now (one would presume), so they really need to maintain a good working relationship.

I don't have a relationship with Hashicorp, and have tried using Consul. Everything about it is amazing in theory, but you might need a few years of experience with kube, consul, go, and maybe even the hashicorp stack to even begin debugging when things don't work as advertised.

I still think my company is going to take another stab at consul in the future, because we do need service discovery. But they're advertising a solution to an incredibly hard problem with a shit ton of variations in network topology and infra that it should (theoretically) work on. I imagine if you stay on the happy path everything works out just fine with Consul (even then, maybe only most of the time). The problem is that they don't spell out what the happy path is, and that all the other knobs they expose off to the side are actually down paths beleagured by dragons.
> This is true, but now you're explicitly depending on all of your transitive dependencies

They're constraints not dependencies they don't need to be installed and you can just update your requirements as you need and regenerate them.

> Also pip freeze does not emit a constraints file, it emits (mostly) a requirements file. This distinction is rarely important, but when it is, it can cause a lot of problems with this workflow. For example, a constraints file cannot include any information about which extras are installed, which pip freeze does by default

Pip freeze does not use extras notation, you just get extra packages listed as individual dependencies. Yes there is an important distinction between constraints and requirements but Pip freeze uses an intersecting subset of the notation.

> You also can't have installed the current project in editable mode if you want the simple "pip freeze" workflow to work correctly

That's why the workflow I gave to generate the constraints didn't use the -e flag, you generate the constraints separately and then can install however you want, editable or not.

> From my experience trying basically every single option in the packaging ecosystem, there aren't really any solutions here. Even Poetry, which is pretty much best-in-class for actually managing dependencies, struggles with workspace-like installations and more complicated build scripts. Which is why I think pretty much every project seems to have its own, subtly unique build/dependency system.

People have subtly different use cases that make a big impact on what option is best for them. But I've never been able to fit Poetry into any of my use cases completely, whereas a small shell script to generate constraints automatically out of my requirements has worked exceedingly well for pretty much every use case I've encountered.
> Nix needs reproducible builds as well, which is a limiting factor.

It doesn't have to be, Nix lets you choose your level of purity and it can build docker containers.

Nobody does the right thing. You will not find any startup, future success or failure, that is doing everything the right way. Many times the difference between success and failure is who got lucky and never had to pay for the stuff they skipped over, and who got the predictable consequences.
If you don't know what ??? should be, your code's going to misbehave in production - at best crashing, at worst causing data corruption or an exploitable vulnerability.

If "???" is just "foo = INT_MIN;" clang will optimise it all down to a single addition (see https://godbolt.org/z/K1ee8h3TM). If it's always "foo = INT_MIN;" across all of your code you can just use "-fwrapv" to override the C standard and define signed addition as two's complement wrapping.

GCC will ignore the possibility of overflow in signed addition if you don't do anything special (e.g. https://godbolt.org/z/Pc76c5E9z).

You can use "-ftrapv" (or "-fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error -fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow") to make bigger, slower, safer code that fails fast on unexpected overflows across the board.

You can do the rather unergonomic "__builtin_add_overflow(bar, 1, &foo);" to tell the (GCC or clang, at least) compiler "???" is two's complement wrapping. You can do the cheeky, non-portable, but predictable on the same compiler and platform "int foo = bar + 1L;" to do the same thing. Combine these with "-ftrapv" and you'll get code that short-circuit blows up for unchecked unsigned overflow with the opportunity to produce faster code where you either are damn sure it can't overflow or where you want two's complement wrapping on overflow.

If it's not in a tight inner loop avoiding a check is premature optimisation - if you're consuming I/O and doing lightweight processing on it, an overflow flag test on signed additions will not make a measurable performance difference, nor will it blow out your binary size unreasonably.

IMO it's not a red herring to have signed integer overflow flagged as a potential error. The error is the failure to have an answer for "???".
I had a similar experience. I was sick for 4 months at the start and took over a year to recover. Most of my symptoms were mental health related (anxiety, low energy, brain fog, etc). I'm bipolar... so no medical professional is going to take me seriously.

I know myself, my moods, and my body extremely well. Without that, I wouldn't be able to work a full time job even with my existing accommodations.

If something is off, I can usually pin-point it pretty fast. Something was off for a long time.

1. It wasn't medication because that hasn't changed since mid-2019. I'm still on the same meds and dosages. (Minus a single minor adjustment for pre-existing ADHD symptoms.)

2. It wasn't isolation. A few friends and I isolated together. We had plenty of social interaction.

3. It wasn't worry. I've never been concerned about sickness or death for myself, my family, or my friends. They are facts of life. Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die. Live while you got it. :)

4. It wasn't lack of exercise. I did a lot of walking in parks.

By process of elimination, covid is all that stands out. shrug

There are people driving on the road that are periodically looking down at their phone to text. For x seconds at a time. It boggles my mind whenever I see it. Kind of makes me want to chuck something at them.

I'm sure everyone has been in a situation where they are not paying attention. But I think the danger with texting is that it happens more often. It is unlikely to be just one message. Which makes it more likely to result in an accident.

I made a mobile game several years ago that brings in $100-200 per month: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/card-crusade/id1383938095

Took a few hundred hours to implement, we got pretty lucky to find an audience, and it’s too a year or two after making it free to actually start getting recommended by the App Store - I think we must’ve crossed some threshold for getting enough positive reviews, or something. Anyways, I can’t say it’s a reliable way to make money, but I had fun doing it, and it does bring in some money.

Look: for every problem in the world (and in your city, and in your neighborhood, and in your family), there are people who just don’t want to hear it.

They’re generally not the same people from problem to problem, but there’s always a bunch of them. They have their own problems, their own hangups, their own way of seeing the world, etc. They have a thousand totally personal and idiosyncratic reasons. And the easier it is to dismiss the problem, the more staunchly they’ll do so.

It just so happens that autonomic body issues and subjectively assessed complaints are very easy to dismiss because they’re really nebulous and sometimes genuinely psychogenic or iatrogenic. So the people who just don’t want to deal with this problem right now have a really easy time taking a pass on it.

That’s the way it’s gone for hundreds of years and will go for hundreds more. Getting yourself caught up in frustration or confusion over those people isn’t going to do you a lot of good.

If you care about this problem, help people who are suffering from it or work with other people who care about with you. Don’t worry about the people who don’t. They’re not going anywhere.
You don't see anywhere in the policythat they don't allow prompt injections? I have a completely different view from reading their policy. They don't specifically mention words like jailbreak or prompt injection, but it is extremely clear that anything inappropriate or against the spirit of their content policy is not allowed. It's quite the mental gymnastics to think that this wouldn't include prompt injections designed to bypass their content policy safeguards, after all, that's the whole point of jailbreaks / injections.

> Not to use the service to create or share inappropriate content or material. Bing does not permit the use of the Online Services to create or share adult content, violence or gore, hateful content, terrorism and violent extremist content, glorification of violence, child sexual exploitation or abuse material, or content that is otherwise disturbing or offensive.

Abuse of the Online Services, such as repeated attempts to produce prohibited content or other violations of the Code of Conduct, may result in service or account suspension.

A prompt injection or jailbreak could easily fall under the category of content that is likely to lead to the creation of material that violates the code of conduct, even if the prompt itself does not directly produce violating output. An analogy is seeing someone try to pick your lock even if they haven't broken into your house and stolen anything. Just the fact that they spot you trying to bypass the restrictions is suspicious enough for them to consider that a violation of code of conduct.

Given how broad and encompassing the restrictions are, I don't know how on earth you could come to the conclusion that jailbreaks are ok according to code of conduct.

What I'm suggesting didn't require some crazy foresight. It was the obvious move. Stripe was fully capable of going public at any point in that period, and analysts, investors, insiders were all calling for it to happen. Every other tech "unicorn" in its cohort – Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, Pinterest, Slack, Snowflake, Zoom, Palantir and like a hundred more – did just that. Stripe choosing to stay public was a deliberate decision by the founders, one that did not work out.

What mechanism would you use to ensure that upvotes correlate with accuracy and correctness?

Anonymous web surfers can't be forced into providing correct commentary. Even if they knew enough to be correct, humans will say inaccurate things just because..

Filtering algorithms like a ChatGPT gatekeeper defeat the point of recieving comments from humans. Just talk to ChatGPT.

I suggest, it's difficult to justify karma because it carries little meaning. It has a mob justice function to it, that keeps thousands of commenters from making a big mess.

Works as intended, though the reward for division and counter-argument behaviour, is maybe a little high.

It's not the minimum possible, but it is the minimum typical case.

Escape velocity is the upwards velocity needed at the surface to reach an unbounded height with velocity zero. Run that in the other direction and you see an object that starts from infinity will reach Earth at escape velocity.

For that not to happen, you'd need something to perturb the object, slowing its fall or deflecting its velocity in some direction other than down. This can happen from the Moon, but it's not common given its small mass and gravitational field relative to Earth.
I mean, yeah sure, it's trivially true that all spending by anyone in the economy adds some tiny portion of inflationary pressure.

That doesn't mean that the Fed making depositors' bank balances that already existed continue to exist (and mostly continue to stay in the bank) most of which is simply a payout from an insurance fund doesn't add less inflationary pressure per dollar than most other types of spending, that the number of dollars involved isn't an exceptionally tiny fraction of the economy or that a 0.25% rise in the interest rate wouldn't have several orders of magnitude more impact in the opposite direction.

I can’t understand people who are so excited about GPT. It fills me with absolute dread, and if I could vote to make it illegal, I would.

In a world where human intellect becomes meaningless, nobody can predict what will happen next, and a lot of the possibilities are not good. Does anyone want to live in a world where all books, art, etc. are produced by machines, where you can’t get a job tinkering with computers anymore because AI does it better, and so on? The optimistic case for AGI is that if nobody had to work they could spend their time on hobbies and creative passions, but what’s the point when an AI can do them better than any human can?

Previous machines only replaced humans at tasks that are tedious and boring, whereas the new crop of AIs seems poised to replace us at the very things that make us human.

Not to claim that GPT-4 is all the way there but it’s surely a huge step forward, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we live in such a world in the next decade.
generally i find the opposite: controversial articles are rigorously pruned of anything even slightly dubious, while errors in uncontroversial articles remain for many years

CXL is coming, which will allow attaching ram from beyond the box. That will be exciting.

It won't have 64 channels of ram bandwidth (8cores x 8channels) but it will also be much much more obtainable (once it starts showing up in volume, stops being totally exotic). If you have a couple dozen TB of data you want to be pretty fast, could be a huge win.

There's also switched versions, with multi-host. So multiple hosts might share a ram drive (atm this would be partitioned up, but I've dreamt of clustering fs like HAMMERFS for multiple decades & am not gonna give up the dream yet!).

And perhaps maybe the on-ram filtering might eventually work & be good, so ram could perhaps do push-down filtering on its own, for scanning through tables!
