I've heard "new" Grafana is running something like chromium for server-side rendering under the hood. Is it true? (it's freaking me out a bit) Sorry if it's a silly question.
Dmitry here (Pyroscope cofounder)

This sounds about right.

My favorite little anecdote that I like to tell is that the first thing people often see when they add Pyroscope to their apps is that it takes way less CPU than other signals like tracing or logging. It's pretty common to see logging taking 5-10% of overall CPU utilization.

The other 90% is usually spent doing serialization / deserialization (half-joking).
I'm working on an code editor with a similar philosophy (or at least I'm trying to achieve similar goals) but it's completely open-source (MIT licence). It's called ecode and can be found here: https://github.com/SpartanJ/ecode . It's also GPU accelerated, native code (no electron), has LSP integration and has many similar feature set.

I'm looking for collaborators, if someone is interested please message me.
They're already algorithms running on a computer. A very different kind of computer where computation and memory are combined at the neuron level and made of wet squishy carbon instead of silicon, but a computer nonetheless.

I don't see how it could be reasoned otherwise.
Most spyware is installed by the user themselves. It's typically called "security software" from your company, or the VPN they provide (which also includes additional software that backdoors your entire device).
"Brexit means Brexit" was clearly meaningless. However "Get Brexit Done", "Take Back Control" and "Stop The Boats" are all pretty clear as far as three word political slogans are. They're certainly more specific than "Make America Great Again".
More city employees for more arbitrary rules they make up to make your life more miserable and get more money from you.
I'm the only one that doesn't like the exaggerated judgments based on a "if it's not a wild unicorn charming success then is dead"?

Wasn't Silicon Valley Bank one of "the best banks" and "too big to fail"?

There are plenty of moderately successful businesses out there that are fine with just surviving or moderately growing in their niche.
It's basically the equivalent of someone in the 80s tapping your phone line.
I am more than 100% confident that those controversies have nothing to do with the current mess. CS is failing not because it laundered cartel money, it is failing because it didn't manage risks properly, namely Archegos and Greensill. You guys make it sound like the universes punishes those who do bad things which is laughable.
> If bigger and better funded was always better, then IBM would still be number one

Weak reasoning. Maybe being bigger and better funded is a necessary but not sufficient condition for success.
This is why the debate about taxes in America is not like it is in Europe.

Europeans get a lot more for their tax dollars than Americans.

If you add up federal, state, local, and property taxes, the tax burden of many Americans is just as high as what Europeans pay and we don't get free health care or anywhere near the level of social safety net that Europeans do. The money is being spent inefficiently.

When you see Americans vote against tax increases, don't be tempted to think it's because we don't want better government services. We vote against tax increases because we know we don't get good value for the money we pay, and paying more isn't going to fix that.
wow - interesting! how did you create the 3d world? on your own or using open source tools?
Was developing lower back issues earlier on due to not caring about office chair selection. Easy fix and well worth it.
> Maybe I just have a soft spot since he's Canadian

Given that Mint isn't available in Canada, I presume that you must be in the US.
Rigorous trust design is important. Firstly, you have to trust the trustees (so you "scammer" risk is irrelevant).

Secondly, it is typical to mitigate against a single trustee not acting in good faith by have an odd number of trustees.
Ignorant question - How well does this scale? Are peers all necessarily running in major cloud environments?

Do you imagine seeing peers in the form of smaller players with beefy home setups?
If it can't be shown, then doesn't that strongly suggest that consciousness isn't computable? I'm not saying it isn't correlated with the equivalent of computational processes in the brain, but that's not the same thing as there being a computation for consciousness itself. If there was, it could in principle be shown.
This would be a just way to do it. Making a dispute over $20 cost the complainer $2000 in digital goods seems like a good way to create hate and discontent... and lawsuits.
Rent-stabilized units are about half the housing stock but much less than half the market because they never turn over. As such they are irrelevant to new arrivals or people weighing the possibility of of moving there. Anyway I do not find the $4095 number very shocking. In Berkeley where I live the median new lease for 3-bedroom rent-stabilized apartment, and these are far from "luxury" as they are all at least 40 years old, was $4300.
I'm 50/50 on this. Obviously we can't risk the health of our economy on the next bank run. On the other hand, even a big business keeping that much money in a single bank account is ridiculous - there should be some sort of incentive against hoarding that much money.

I say scrap the limit - but don't make everyone pay the FDIC insurance. Actually make the big accounts do the lion's share of insurance payments to the FDIC.
Despite the unfortunate presence of Apartheid Clyde, SpaceX has established a track record of actually building sustainable, reusable, reliable rockets at a reasonable cost and the traditional NASA contractor base represented by the other group has not.
It is cheaper than having all of NYC live in the rural equivalent, yes.
> These companies

What is an example of such a company? I.e. one that pays well above market rate for a similar job at Apple? Bonus points if the culture, working conditions, etc. are on par or better.
Yea they should have had precognition about anyone who does anything bad and never allow them to step foot on campus
Several articles posted here on HN in the last few weeks have CNN, the source of the current article, as a hard left biased source. Seems like we should take some salt with this article.
Even at that salary, you aren't buying in the city. At least, you aren't buying close to the city. Jersey City, Upstate, East Queens/BK (Flushing/Bushwick). And even THEN, you're buying shoeboxes/places that haven't been updated since the 70s/80s.
I think it's actually worse than compositing in a high-resolution moon image. With AI enhancement, the details will look believable but may be completely inaccurate.
I spent more than thirty minutes reading about it and called bullshit. A decade into the promised crypto revolution all we have to show for it amounts to the scams and frauds you dismiss as noise. No significant blockchain applications exist. Crypto did not deliver on anonymity nor decentralization.

You can call the people who don’t share your views irrational and incurious if you want. Another more plausible explanation: we did read up and paid attention and came to a different conclusion than you have.
This was rhetorical. My point was that a system or model which cares about something other than the truth can, upon reaching a certain level of sophistication, be able to handle reasoning about truth. Eg, an AI that cares entirely about approval for what it says rather than the actuality of what it says could still end up reasoning about truth, given that truth is most heavily correlated with approval. I reject the premise that there has to be an a priori truth model under the hood.
Not exactly. The membership are only given a choice between two candidates. If the membership actually got to choose who ran the party then we'd most likely have had the first female black PM of the country (Kemi Badenoch), who would also have had computer science training. The MPs unfortunately had other ideas and so members got a choice between Sunak and Truss.
DI has a place. In my opinion it's for plugin systems. If you have a core system that enables third parties to extend DI can be brilliant.
Given that people still get convicted based on eyewitness testimony that has been repeatedly shown to be extremely inaccurate, I hold out little hope that the justice system will figure out how unreliable modern photography is anytime soon.
It doesn't because of the constrained housing regime. All marginally available money flows to landlords. Anything that begins to cost less simply raises rents.
This article could be improved by starting off stating what some examples of Predictive AI is, as they did with Generative AI.
I'd rather use rpm or deb under Linux. Flatpack means potentially duplicating lots of files.
@dang, it looks like all comments from an hour+ ago on this article have been deleted. They were OK comments, is there a bug?
Same here, I just paid to try all the things you can accomplish with a higher token limit and it's still capped.

No image input neither.

No, it isn’t. A vendor that provided DDOS protection used to be but no longer is
I know a couple of small restaurant owners. Even ones that don’t go through UberEats or GrubHub that use SaaS restaurant software that also come with a white labeled restaurant specific app that accepts Apple Pay (standard credit card fees - not 30%) and other payment methods. They actually prefer it.
>Is it really a choice when 75% of all food found in the supermarket has been spiked with sugar and 88% of the US population is suffering from metabolic issues? And sugar has been linked to a host of degenerative neurological conditions.

Yes, it is. If you walk into the store, pick up the item, pay for it, take it home, and eat it, then it was 100% your choice. Just because a decision is difficult doesn't absolve an individual of responsibility.

>We can't outrun a bad diet.

You can, but it's not easy. However, what tends to happen is when you increase you activity level your body will auto-regulate cravings for better food. High performance athletes can get by on mostly fast food if they need. Most don't because they know it's not optimal.

Both of your notions are currently popular but that doesn't make them right. Emotional reasoning has taken over diet, fitness, and health and caused millions of people to give up their personal responsibility and sense of control. It's harmful thinking.
I would have tried it but I didn't have enough storage on my phone to hold both the original and quantized weights.
That's really weird though, because it can be passed down to heirs, right?

Why do you think people should be careful about becoming more ethical?
Custodia in Wyoming has been going through this same thing, recently. They tried to start a 100% reserve bank. The Fed has been ignoring their application for a Master Account for two or three years, until just recently, they were told on the side to withdraw the application or it would be formally denied.

Then, according to the CEO of the bank, the Fed leaked to the press.
Residents must pay NY state taxes (already high), and NYC has a separate city income tax that varies from ~4–10% depending on your bracket.
I found myself using up a lot of data every other month or so. Price kinda got really high. Other than that its a alright service.
For lack of a better term, I've been a full-stack programmer for 27 years. I ran Linux on the desktop for 19 years. I've run MacOS for about 8 now. And, always, Windows, of course, because companies. I've developed extensively for PHP, VB, C, ASP, VB.NET, C#, some Python, a tiny bit of Java, and (my fave) Ruby on Rails. My main projects of the last 10 years use a large C# program which I compile to run on Mac, Linux, and Windows. So, I've been around the block. A couple times. I'm typing this from a Mac. When I've wanted a "container," I've used a real VM. I just installed Docker desktop last week for some new work in machine learning. YMMV. TACMA.
How is it different/worse than what Facebook just did?
Wow, this is the best comment I've read in a while. I was one of those ppl who thought that bankers were "getting away with it" but I can clearly see your point here.

Thanks for putting the time to answer.
Turns out it costs a lot of money to have a « war on drugs », « war on terror », « war on crime » and so on.

Not sure about the results though.
I don't know, but light text on dark backgrounds is more difficult for the eye to read. It takes more effort to discern the characters, thus causing more eye strain.

(If your editor seems too bright to look at, I might suggest reducing your monitor's brightness.)
Absolutely. With mobile internet/search engines, knowing how and where to find information became a more important skill than having to memorize that information
honestly all they need to monitor people is built into Apple products out of the box. Sync a dummy iCloud enabled AppleID, and clear all the prompts and emails that the device was added to the account.

You now have access to everything via iCloud and FindMy app for location tracking. You can even sign into another device and have real-time iMessage and other private data without installing any spyware apps. I will admit this is outside the scope of the paper, but arguably harder to mitigate if you are not ever checking your iCloud settings.

Hiroshima was 15 kt, 4.23 Mt is 282x that. Fortunately this thing is small enough that it would burst at high altitude and only do minor damage on the ground:

If anyone was still thinking about companies as saints, then this is a good moment to reconsider that. (This also applies to the Apple folks here).
I looked into it in 2014 and concluded it would be useless without meaningful abstraction between a user and a wallet. I checked back in 2 years ago and it was still the case.

Cryptocurrency is neat nerd porn, but there's a reason it still hasn't taken off after a decade of active development.
SVB Financial explores bankruptcy as option for asset sales
So hard to compare a lot of these places. Sure you'll take home a large share of your money living in Ft Wayne, IN...but you're also living in Ft Wayne. Relatively, taking home near 60% and living in Chicago is so vastly different than taking home 80% in Ft Wayne.
I think you're describing a different thing. Those vacant residential properties could be owned from someone overseas who has never been to NYC.

I interpret pushing out wealthy residents to mean someone moving to Florida and living there most of the year to avoid paying NYC income taxes, even if they choose to keep their NYC condo. NYC suffers a drop in tax revenue and the housing supply doesn't necessarily get better.
How do they even train such huge models? Especially when you start talking abou multi-modal models. Is the underlying optimization process still relying on gradient descent? I am just baffled how they manage to get it to train across such vastly different sets of data and manage to get it to work.

If AZ used to be in the top 10, it has certainly fallen down a lot as it is now in 40s. Interestingly, Boise also shows up near AZ cities, which I guess happened due to the Californians moving there during the pandemic.
There's Ada.
I don't understand Googles hesitation in this space, when they thought Facebook posts were going to replace (a portion) of search they went all in on social platforms. This is clearly a much greater threat to their core business, so much so that it's allowed Microsoft to reinvigorate bing!

I've never worked at google, but I've worked for them and Meta, the data they have access to is unbelievable (and I'm sure I only saw a very small subset of it).

If they don't successfully make the paradigm shift then their dominance in search is at an end. (Especially with governments regulating search results like what's happening in Canada with bill C18)

The competitive advantage is in storytelling, not necessarily visual fidelity. People will watch a somewhat worse looking movie with a better story than a better looking movie with a worse story. And honestly, can anyone really tell slightly worse graphical quality these days when so many animated movies already look good?

The exception, of course, is James Cameron and his Avatar series. People will absolutely watch something that looks 10x better because the visual fidelity itself is the draw, it's the main attraction over the story. This is usually not the case in most movies however.
Yes. But from I've seen no one has applied it to the latest Generative AIs.
I think you're fighting an uphill battle because of what you picked to defend here - shell scripts are very easy to write, and I have a hard time imagining a future where someone tells an LLM,

to get,

"./run_control.py --speed 100"

"Liberating the Smalltalk lurking in C and Unix" by Stephen Kell, Strange Loop Conference, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwicN2u6Dro

> This talk introduces liballocs, an infrastructure which exposes the dynamism hiding in the arcane linking and debugging infrastructure of a Unix process, along with a small extension to C toolchains that enables fast dynamic access to data created by statically compiled code. Together they can be said to unleash a "hidden Smalltalk" inside the C and Unix model of programs and processes. Come prepared for a journey that takes your perceptions of the boundaries between dynamic and static languages and turns them on its head.
Apple has “Advanced Data Protection” that you can enable

This was built after the NSO group hacks to lock down the device to be resilient to nation state attacks.

It limits some of the attack vectors you’re taking about (with a tradeoff of also limiting some features).

Apple also enabled true e2ee in the cloud where only you retain the keys.
I work with multiple PMS platforms and centralizing even a simple unit price table is hellish given different PMS have different paradigms for concepts such as unit pricing. For example, Yardi (depending on the version of course) has 3 different tables for Market Price of a unit flying around in the backend, each with a slightly different definition.

Another issue (for users not API creators) is the lack of universal KPI definition - there are at least 6 major ways of calculating occupancy, each one needing its own specific dataset (economic occupancy, physical occupancy, economic occupancy revenue generating units, physical occupancy revenue generating units, trending occupancy, trending occupancy revenue generating units)

Concepts such as renewal ratio and collection ratio are particularly difficult due to their time component. Most of the pain comes not from getting the data out of the PMS through an API but rather knowing WHAT data is needed and for what KPI.
A very large chunk of federal taxes are for UBI and universal healthcare for old people
That puts the discussion that we should pay less for "defense" into perspective. And make our healthcare system more efficient, those two knobs are what I'd like to turn.
Excellent questions. One is import time and model loading time where PyTorch is very slow, and it gets much worse for the larger models, for the 1558M model PyTorch is 24s to start, while fastGPT is 1s, about 24x speedup.

I am still studying the performance of the inference itself, it's really hard to do meaningful benchmarks that I can trust. The ones in my blog posts should be solid, I've eventually managed to control all variables. For example, my faster tanh() implementation initially showed around 20% speedup, but after I controled everything, I only see 4% speedup without caching, and less than that with caching.

I think the main advantage of Fortran is that all I did was a rewrite (two afternoons) and I right away saw performance better than PyTorch, which is a highly optimized production code, developed by thousands of professionals. After controling for everything and doing a fair comparison, it's only slightly faster (at the moment!), but that's still quite an impressive result I think. And using Accelerate, it's a lot faster. I am guessing this problem is limited by matrix-matrix multiplication, in which case even Python is fast on single core (even pure Python/NumPy picoGPT is competitive after my PR), which the results seem to show.

Thanks for the links, I'll try PyTorch with Accelerate and report back.

I don't know regarding GPU, we'll have to see.

But in general, right now the code is not parallel, it runs on single core, the only parallelism comes from OpenBLAS. It's a great foundation to now parallelize it and see how it performs. In other words, with Fortran you start "fast" right away, and then you can try speeding it up from there. While in Python it is quite a lot of work to even get it to this performance.
Couldn't say from NH. It's the only source of revenue, so they go up no matter what housing values do.

AI-Powered Job Board – Remote Tech Jobs
Not if the supply dramatically outstrips demand. If you want to live in a walkable city in America with decent public transit (to the point where car ownership is optional), low to moderate crime, and lots of jobs, relatively few places meet that demand. If there were twenty American cities with the same economic abundance and amenities as New York City, New York City rent would be lower.
> The people leading congress right now were also working in congress with JFK!

JFK was last in Congress in 63 years ago, and last alive 60 years ago; the longest serving member of Congress served for 59 years and retired in 2019.

Chuck Schumer was first elected to Congress in 1980, Mitch McConnell in 1984, Kevin McCarthy in 2006, and Hakeem Jeffries in 2012. Only one of them was even in Congress within 20 years of Kennedy’s assassination, much less all of them being in Congress with him.
Bernie bros are pro social equity (income distribution fairness), pro education, pro drug law reform and anti-establishment, but also typically not into political correctness or D&I, and frequently either gun positive or gun neutral (schools excepted). They are mostly people who came under the democratic umbrella to support Bernie but often do not consider themselves democrats.
