A lot of wokeism is prefaced on a caricature of conservatives, and a denial that there's any possible valid ideologies driving these issues other than White Supremacy.

For the record, White Supremacy ideologies ARE how they got to the state put in the photos - but that doesn't mean that the people currently in charge are all neonazis. We don't apply that logic to NY state government w/r/t NYCHA or Newburgh or Far Rockaway, and we should extend that courtesy to people like Nikki Haley.
Ah yes. Well, I evaluate the situation as a gamer, not as though I were Sony. Sony will do whatever Sony wants to do, I won't try to predict that since Sony has a history of doing things which seem irrational. For instance they forbid Fallout/Skyrim mods from adding content on the playstation edition of those games, even though such mods are permitted on the Xbox editions. Inexplicable, I couldn't have predicted that before they did it, but that's Sony for you.
Better to go see a doctor for this type of question. Without blood work and other diagnostics it's going to be near impossible to determine the exact cause.
If the major contributor of an e-mail (or code) is an AI then it should be attributed to the AI in the signature/attribution fields. Otherwise the work is plagiarized.
To my knowledge, nordvpn is independently audited on its no log claims. Can you provide a source for what you said regarding logs?
> What is the latest cool Meta product which promises a bright future for the company?

Hum... Did the executives of all those large companies just happen to discover they aren't innovative at the same time? Or are they trying to prop-up their stock so they have time to exit on the prices created by the low-interest market?

One of those is way more likely than the other.

(But yeah, those companies have stopped innovating long ago.)
> So why have a "door close" button at all in the US?

If only the article you're commenting on described in detail a secondary, safety-critical function of that button, maybe we wouldn't have to resort to this kind of speculation.

Oh well. Maybe next time!
When you say "credit rating", are you talking about companies like Moody's? Or is there yet another layer of companies processing individual consumers' data behind the scenes?

I definitely meant to write "credit reporting" in my original comment, but I never considered how credit rating and credit reporting companies might interact. Glad I made that mistake because I learned something from your comments.
It sounds like gmail should have a filter to detect this kind of problem (just like they have the detection for missing attachments).

Use AI to solve problems caused by AI.
I would agree, but I've seen cattle being offloaded into an abattoir. A few trucks in a parking lot, one unloading into a corral, with a bridge/ramp headed into the building.

I've seen startled cattle, and I've seen frightened cattle. None of these were. Yet inside, the sound of dying cattle could be heard, with a "Bam!" from the gun used to euthanize by nail-to-the-brain, and a "thud' of the cattle falling afterwards.

I presumed, at the time, that the lack of concern was due to a lack of panicked sounds. The cattle simply died instantly, without exhibiting any pain response, or noise, first.

So no.. at least for cattle, it seems to be without the experience you describe.
Pip is a huge and convoluted program with tons of bugs. It does a lot more than just download Python packages and unpack them into their destination. Obviously, if you want something simple, then HTTP client, which constitutes only a tiny fraction of pip would be a simpler solution, wouldn't it?

In practice, pip may not honor your requirements.txt the way you think it would. Even if you require exact versions of packages (which is something you shouldn't do for programs / libraries). This is because pip will install something first, with its dependencies, and then move to the next item, and then this item may or may not match what was already installed.

The reason you don't run into situations like this one often enough to be upset is because a lot of Python projects don't survive for very long. They become broken beyond repair after few years of no maintenance. Where by maintenance I mean constant chasing of the most recent set of dependencies. Once you try to install and older project using pip and requirements.txt, it's going to explode...
Sure, but then don't call it "crypto" industry if it is not about cryptocurrencies.

I don't care what you call it, calling the centralized Binance exchange "crypto" is just not accurate.

They don't deserve to co-opt the word.
Back in the day, I used to use BBSes via local dial-up. Everyone did, so you could expect BBSes were on the rise from so much usage. Meanwhilr, governments were stuck on ArpaNet and futzing around with some newfangled "TCP/IP" protocol. What good does government support even provide???
Someone should do that with good branding. Sorta like carfax. Call the Zillow Report or find a similar firm. License the standards and a saas interface to Inspectors to have another revenue stream (or maybe more broadly to contractors). Then it could become a defacto standard, especially if you get in with real estate agents.
I was under the impression that VPN services were very profitable on their own, without selling data. Is this really a price thing, or is it a shady greed thing?
This idea of doing layoffs and then using it to fund stock buybacks is really catching on. We should call this “double booster” for stock prices even when company is clearly failing.
> Why does this break the elevator?

It doesn't

> Why would a built-in button crashing the elevator not be considered a fault?

The manufacturer was trying to get out of a warranty claim, hoping the customer was naive enough to believe their story.
People intentionally closing the door while disabled people are trying to make their way to the elevator door? I expect that's a nearly non-existent problem.

People are assholes. Also, a lot of people would just get into the habit of hitting the door close button the moment they step on without even looking for anyone else.
> but I do think that will probably come eventually.

For it to "come eventually" you need to answer all these questions that you ignore or swat aside as irrelevant, or easily solvable by magic.

> As soon as that happens, then you can have rules and regulations drafted around all these tertiary concerns including IP rights and complex ownership rights

No. These things have to be solved first. because complex ownership rights exist today, and not in some fantastical future after blockchain has been implemented at scale.

> potentially some of those codified in on-chain contracts

"On-chain contracts" of course make zero sense even for the most trivial of cases. Much less the complex ones.

Because what you propose is replicating human-readable texts with programs in esoteric programming languages that get routinely "hacked" because even multiple audits cannot find vulnerabilities in them. And for what?

> Putting property deeds in an NFT on a blockchain does not solve all problems that arise with property ownership, but it could improve the record keeping process in some areas.

It "may improve record keeping" but produce an insane amount of complexity, inane and insane workarounds, friction and problems everywhere else. So, will not be implemented until those issues are solved.
> We haven’t had World War III since nuclear weapons were invented. I’d consider that a net positive.

Not to take away from your point about crypto (which I agree with) but I wouldn't call that a positive. WW3 is near certain to happen some day. It's only been 80 years and we've already had multiple extremely close calls that we escaped by pure luck. 80 years is not a very long time when it comes to weapon history. How long was the sword and spear in use?

We've avoided an atomic holocaust in spite of nuclear stockpiles, not because of them.
people don't choose to move from rural areas. they're forced due to mechanization making their labor obsolete so they can't farm anymore. it's an economic necessity to relocate to a city.

other factors play into that too, like drought. but largely in the 20th america everybody migrated away from rural areas because of machines.
Definitely want to offer this in the future but not currently our ICP. Like rileyphone mentioned, the cost of hosting a model is substantial. Could you please elaborate on why the small IT teams can't send code to OpenAI? We'd love to think more about this!
If you drive, you still have to exercise. Walking to work gets the exercise done and gets you to work.
I wish I had a source, but I've heard guesses as high as 90% profit for most VPN subscriptions. Especially overloaded and bloated garbage VPNs. Most people don't know they're being throttled by the VPN if they only use it to watch Netflix.
Eh, I think the reason for his cult-leader status was for creating the whole community and being its, like, prophet. The sequences were just one of many things in that direction.

I'm not surprised by the vitriol, though. He has got to be one of the most arrogant people alive, and people arrogantly writing as though they are world experts on everything when they are, like, dumb and wrong... is extremely irritating.
I mean that the model should learn that e.g. highschool textbooks are not filled with neonazi propaganda, therefore you should not produce it when asked to write a highschool essay. I would assume that if you go out of your way you can make LLaMA generate such content, but probably not if you fill the prompt with normal looking schoolwork.

This is completely orthogonal to learning what is ethically right or wrong, or even what is true or false.
nah. im not a retarded pussy, so I don't have a problem with tone. I've never dyed my hair purple (im pretty sure that shit seeps into the brain).

Yes, but most capacitors last more than 20 years. I've never had to recap a computer that young.
> A landlord charges what the market will bear

Yes, but people wouldn't choose to be landlords if "what the market will bear" wasn't profitable. If renting didn't cover the landlord's costs (on average, over time), then nobody would be a landlord.

> but they tell themselves that they're building equity and eventually rents will rise to more than cover their costs--which is eventually true.

This is also true for you if you buy a house. Renters have their rent go up every year. Owners are always ahead after 30+ years.
I should clarify that the author said he had technical people he knew review it during the production phase. He was not talking about paying money to get positive reviews on the Amazon or that sort of thing.

The bank doesn't have to pass fees down using the same algorithm with which they were assessed, and they usually don't. The small guy gets fucked with regressive fee structure.

>people seeing a bank fail will worry that their own bank could fai

I feel more confident in my bank as it is compared to my bank minus a "special assessment" to backstop depositors at irresponsible banks.
Ahh, yup, I absolutely missed that when I read the announcement. Thank you!

It's worth noting it's still unclear if that'll be necessary (it all depends on the level of recovery they can get out of SVB's assets), but the potential is there, and it's hard to deny that, if that is necessary, those costs will ultimately be born by everyone as the banks pass those costs along.
Yuck, that all sounds terrible!
Which one/s you got? I got the eUfy and the only reason I went for it is because of the built in battery. Curious to know what product you are using.
Literally retraining on inputs and outputs without doing anything clever, does not to me seem to deserve quite such a fancy name. How do we end up with a smaller model if the dataset formats are exactly similar, except in some other special case, like using much more generated data to train the smaller model? Of course there are other deservedly clever things you could do besides matching logits, that would enable a smaller student model.

Here, the Stanford authors are not doing anything clever to enable a smaller model. They're just yoinking the fine-tuning onto what happens to be a smaller model. The destination model being smaller is not the point. The cheap yoinking of just the instruction tuning is the point. They used a small model as the destination because that was cheaper.
Audio over USB is supposed to be synchronous, but if the webcam is buffering somehow, you could get jitter in the microphone. Some HDMI implementations have been known to have similar problems on playout (variable delay, sometimes with a snap-back). If playout and microphone don't have relatively constant delay, that makes the AEC adaptation incorrect, and you'll get echo defects.

I should clarify that I meant a good move for Facebook/Meta. I'm not commenting on the meaning of those moves outside of that context.
Perhaps so, but that doesn't negate the idea or the need. It only implies they were doing it wrong (and, I speculate, they were doing it wrong because they weren't really on-board with the idea. They were just after improving their PR a bit).
I agree that the situation is different when evaluated from the perspective of a highly technically skilled player than from either the perspective of a less technical person or the perspective of a company which wants to do business with less technical people.
Has anyone figured out how to make aquaculture sustainable? Last I checked it was so bad that it was actually worse than catching wild fish
Studies have shown that people that grew up listening to compressed audio tend to rate it as 'better' than lossless, which is kind of sad/amazing.

Anyway, not to take this sub-thread too seriously, but obviously it depends how reproducible your deviation from 50-50 is :-)
I can guarantee you Mullvad does not. I can't speak for anyone else though.
This looks interesting, does anyone tried it before and can comment on how good this work on a real world project?
Thanks for writing this.

It seems EY is now less fashionable, so criticizing him as a crackpot is more acceptable. But I remember a few years ago when he was in full swing, he had a lot of traction even here on HN, and of course in many nerdy circles. Also see that debacle with Roko's Basilisk and all those silly antics. The LessWrong crowd is insufferable.

I can sort of understand why EY had so much pull with internet nerds. He talked the talk, he was confident, and he was a nerd. But I'm also relieved that more people seem to understand now that he is a crackpot, and that claiming one is an expert on AI doesn't make it so, and that writing long essays mixing Bayes, Harry Potter and "rationalism" doesn't really make anyone an expert on anything.
Love the simple design. Is there a way to have private data though?

The articles always consider the entire supply chain down the manure used to fertilize the fields for both alternate modes of transport and EVs.

Then when it comes to gas cars, somehow all they consume is the gasoline. The car itself and all the oil drilling and refining infrastructure doesn't count.
An Opal C1 might be what you want. It is expensive, however. You may also be happy with a DSLR hooked up to an appropriate lens. My problem with the Opal C1 is that I don't have a wide field of view. I use it in a meeting room and I have to place it far back to get everyone in.
Just because it is centralized, and thus does not follow one of the purported principles of some cryptocurrency enthusiasts, does not mean that it is not both correct and useful to call it part of that industry.
I never said I don't care about that. But the situation is complicated. While many of those Russians align like you say, it doesn't change the fact that it remains a mix, that Russians have a heavy influence there, that there's tensions around that, and that alienating Russia or taking explicit anti-Putin positions is what the current Georgian gov't is currently trying to avoid.

In any case I genuinely feel for the Russian anti-war or opposition diaspora and don't hold bigoted anti-Russian positions like others on this thread might be showing. It's a complicated situation and indicative of the broader problems we'll see more and more of as empires and hegemonies built around domination of hydrocarbon exports become more volatile.
Because banks have no interest in those? Are you ready to pay high service charge? Bank employees need to eat too.
Torrenting without a VPN gets you a nasty letter pretty quickly. Someone at my IP address downloaded a single episode of The Last of Us with the VPN turned off, and I got an email that same day. No idea who would do such a horrible thing, but I think I saw some hacker-looking guy parked on the street stealing my wifi.
Aw, bummer. Yeah, we're up in Ohio -- not the coldest, but wintery enough. Here's hope for the future! Like you said, perhaps with enough R&D...
Thanks, missed the thread!
Anecdotally, the near dozen or so elevators I've regularly used in Canada (both in residential and commercial settings) have had their Door Close button work as you'd expect: near instantly – no three-or-more second minimum imposed for the doors to be open.
With a VPN your origin and destination are visible to your VPN provider. You're just moving the point where your metadata can be grabbed. I don't particularly trust my ISP, but I don't see a reason to trust any VPN provider any more.

On a side note I think I figured out part of Fed's plan.

Basically the key is to stimulate inflation so that they get the chance to hike rates. By doing so many people choose to stop investing in stocks, funds and more on longer term saving accounts.

Essentially this heals the asset-liability structure of financial institutions. They now have liabilities of longer term so they can issue longer term loans. This eventually will stimulate real economy.
I don't believe Proton or Mullvad sell user data; both purposefully avoid collecting user data.

I believe NordVPN's open sourcing effort here (whether genuine or not) is motivated by pressure from Proton's open source.
I take it as a push back against the mildly conspiratorial thinking that elevator companies left in an explicitly non-functioning button for the sake of giving people a sense of control.

acting like the food creation and distribution is somehow so massively less efficient than petroleum extraction and distribution.

People have to exercise and food has to be eaten anyway. Petroleum products do not have to be extracted and burned.

Principles are irrelevant in this space. The only thing that matters is actual laws enforced by people with guns.
Fisheries aren't the present, they show a snapshot of the past. Fishes need time to grow and cold water crustaceans in particular need a lot of time. Snow crabs mature slowly and can live until 20 years old.

Females produce eggs in spring and, as in other crustaceans they have a pelagic cycle. After a while the larvae carried by currents settle in soft sediments and moult into tiny crabs. If they can pass those first years their survival rate boosts. The pelagic larvae known to be difficult to keep alive

The snow crabs are 9 years old on average when fished. This means that the crabs that we are missing in 2020 and 2021 would had been born in (2020 - 9) = 2011!. 2011 and 2012.

What happened in 2011 in the same area? A tsunami in March and a nuclear power plant accident releasing radioactive water to the sea for several months

What we are seeing (In My Arrogant Opinion) is not climate change, or not only this; Is the effect of a mass die-off of >80% of the crab larvae in Alaska by Fukushima water, that happened nine years before but went unnoticed.

The Japanese water traveled to Alaska probably just in time to meet the crab reproductive season and hit the eggs or the larvae in their zoea phase.

Or maybe the scavenger crabs accumulated radioactive stuff after eating fishes and died later.

Of course there was a tsunami also that could have killed some of the adult crabs but didn't happened in Alaska. And the lack of fishermen in the Covid years maybe add a "nobody came to feed the crabs with bycatch" effect.

The populations will recover, as long as Japanese will stop trowing garbage to the sea in the crab reproductive season.

The article explains that door close may function in some scenarios and special modes, like independent service mode.
