Wow, is that just a copy of Twitter's feature?

Don't get be wrong, Facebook is doing some cool research, but at a high level, its like all the creativity has been sucked out of the company with a straw. They are like a zombie following around things they recognize.
A questionable headline- does it frame and try to link negativity with news, or choose this proposition because it's more likely to get clicks?

If I had unlimited cash and I was the editor, my front pages would be tongue-in-cheek nods to negative stories, like "CRIME ON PAGE 15" so they'd have to flip through a meadow of full page color ads of sakura trees, the textual equivalent of green noise.

Archive.org has a pleasant viewing experience if you flip through many of the fully-scanned magazines, simply because there are no digital popups- at least the ads on the pages are inert and unable to cause a virus.
Windows regularly puts and leaves radios in various low-power states that linux doesn't know about, so I generally need to cleanly shut down windows completely before booting into linux.
And Biden lost me when the train people were on strike. The whole concept of limited sick leave is already ridiculous but their situation was just crazy.

I would spend insane amount of money if AI can educate and entertain my kids.
As of today its easier than ever to host your own website and still people do not own a personal website.

A memorable URL is something that is much better compared to a visiting card. My website design is still oldschool and it keeps me grounded as to where I am coming from.

From time to time (like now) I update my one page resume over it and thats it.

My website is www.OneLife.in
I am amazed why people do not still own their own websites particulary as they can easily create one using a github account.

A website does not need to have a domain name. A github account could suffice. Possibly people are just lazy and possibly scared about writing about themselves to strangers.
One could argue that the lies aren't as egregious, since CNN, MSNBC etc etc aren't getting sued over it?
Its more to do with the movies using higher fidelity assets than you'd typically use for a game, which is what GPUs are made for. In a movie, a single element of a scene might have as many polygons as an entire character in a video game, and its because of the differences in how you 'film' them.

Imagine a brick wall rendered for a video game vs one rendered for a movie. The one for the game is probably going to be a plane with a couple textures on it because the wall is something that's a background element that the player isn't going to be up close with. Whereas in the movie, the wall is more likely to be made of a handful of individually modeled bricks with much more detailed surface textures because maybe the director wants the camera to be really close to the surface of that wall and pull out to a wider shot, so that means the individual brick you start zoomed in on might have a 4k texture for itself alone, whereas the entire wall in the video game could easily be a single 4k texture since the player doesn't get close enough to notice the missing detail.

Now multiply that level of detail across every rendered thing in the scene, because the director may want to reframe the shot, or you need realistic lighting to sell that a rendered thing is integrated with filmed footage and 'real'. Every little bit of that detail adds more data you have to track. So in my wall example, you might have 2 or 3 4k textures vs literally hundreds for all the bricks, grout, defects, chipped faces, etc of a movie quality wall.
Jobs like archeology could probably also be automated further. Somewhat limiting this is possibly the fact that the "market size" for automation here is small.
I work blocks away from the former Newseum and would routinely walk over there to look at the front pages. As years went by it seemed both increasingly anachronistic yet still relevant. The sheets of paper were static in a nice way that countered the ephemeral nature of the ticker that scrolled inside the building.
Wow! someone is still using a chumby 8! I designed the hardware and some of the firmware... if you get stuck I might have some old notes laying around somewhere still, happy to share them. But from the looks of your post, you've figured out more than I can easily recall about the design.

That's actually the point of safetensors format, although it needs to take care of alignment. I actually use this technique to mmap directly to GPU buffer on Apple systems (although it seems to segfault on iOS 15.x systems, only supported on 16.x and above).
Does this effectively confirm the hygiene hypothesis ?

The hygiene hypothesis suggests that a newborn baby's immune system must be educated so it will function properly during infancy and the rest of life.

I'm weighing the need for my (possible future) children to spend time in a 3rd world country with germs & allergens for a little bit, to avoid heavily sanitized environments throughout their early lives. That's against the increased exposure to diseases and terrible pollution.

clarification: This is ofc much easier to do when your family lives in said 3rd world country.

No that's fine, great info, cheers.
Not really, but I can't think about any bigger technology transition in the IT world since the rise of Internet.
This doesn't seem to compile...
Lots of companies playing on two fronts to maximise their earnings.

On one side they try to excuse not giving raises, laying of employees.

On the other side they use it to increase their prices.

This would be fine if not for the fact they usually actually increase, not decrease their margins.

General public is inept financially and does not understand we are being lied to.

Even assuming there exists an economic downturn (which I do not believe there genuinely is one), it is not fine to complain about it when all you do is shift all the costs to the next person.

I think current situation can be best explain as a series of excuses going viral between corporate C level execs. "They did what?! I guess if they got scott-free... what's stopping us from doing it?"
big corporations: the last bastion of enforcing truth
The paper doesn't seem to introduce any novel understanding of the topic, just reinforce what we already assumed - maybe I'm missing something.

I'd be more interested in a study of "persecution" news, the us-vs-them narrative that has become much more common in the last 20-30 years and which I think drives a lot of the so-called polarity of political dialogue.

Also it would be interesting to see effects in decentralized publishing, e.g. youtube/tiktok & independent journalism, since those are so much more prevalent and integral to the broader media narrative now.
I found it!

It's not cringy - I thoroughly enjoyed it! Out of curiosity, were you able to verify the firefighter story?

Edit: I've removed the link.
You sure that leaving this comment up on the internet where a potential future AI might see it is a good idea?
If you look at the learning curve of a lot of things that programmers favor over "normal people", they tend to have a thing in common, which is that they have some sort of step right at the beginning. Markdown, for instance, you have to learn the syntax, and then learn something to do with it in most cases (e.g., put it out on your blog). It's fairly easy after that in most ways, but there's that step at the beginning before you can do anything.

Most people receive the training where opening up Word is not difficult, and then once they've done that, there's no step up. They press "a", an "a" appears on the screen. They have buttons that do things like italicize. The first few steps are easy.

It may be the case that after that there is a brick wall in the difficulty curve, whereas the programmer-favored solution is a smooth easy curve for quite a ways. But that first step is sufficient to block most people, and people are often happy to just give up in the face of the brick wall.

This is not unique to programmers. A lot of the "maker" disciplines have a similar step curve. A lot of times it's just that first step that is the hardest overall. But it's enough.
Note that P2327 is not what was actually done.

P2327 would be in my "not angry just disappointed" category. Of course WG21 think rotten archaic C code should be valid C++ 23 and the belief from embedded devs who write this stuff that it's probably all fine despite no evidence whatsoever should be enough to sail through committee.

WG21 voted to amend the draft to un-deprecate all of the volatile compound assignments instead, at Kona IIRC.
It's extra hilarious that you actually posted the link which proves everything you said is false. Putin isn't an American service member and neither an American in general. He can't be 'extradited' if he wasn't here in the first place, and the article also states:

> Additionally, the act does not prohibit the U.S. from assisting in the search and capture of foreign nationals wanted for prosecution by the ICC
The headline of the article is a concept that most of us are familiar with, but what I think is the novel part is how they quantified it. If you are not planning on reading all 8000+ words, scroll to the results section and look at table 2 for all the headline variations and click through rates.

Can you explain how this is possible to do? Sorry I haven't gotten this low level with any of these models before and I'd really appreciate how to understand this.
I believe the Samsung keyboard was linked with Swype, and I believe it predated SwiftKey (or at least predated swipe-based input in SwiftKey).
> not because of liquidity problems.

The liquidity problems caused the flight - why else would they take a $1.8b haircut on a securities portfolio and then try a bone-headed cap raise to cover the difference?
My biggest pet peeves in the code I'm currently working.
It leads to multiple multi-line ternary to keep a single return.

Single Return made sense when we had to de-allocate resources, but there are few years already that most languages have memory safe resource-counted allocations (C++11 for i.e) that will free resources correctly independent of your single/multiple returns.

I don't believe that keeping those inherited "best practices" from the past will help us developing modern code.

Long life to Clean Coding!
You have a completely flawed perception of how people belonging in this group reason. They aren't some HN 'rationalist' type nerd carefully weighing pros and cons of every action they take and unfortunately a lot of the time they may not even be adults. You also place too much trust on them doing it 'carefully' enough to not cause serious damage.
The article also mentions:

- Inflation, which can’t explain the price rise; as beef and chicken (meat) did not increase at the same rate.

- Excess profits earned compared to earlier quarters; also difficult to explain if the company in question faced a massive loss.

How is this not relevant?
There's a certain set of HN readers who think it's off-topic and likely to result in flamewars, and so flag political content off the front page.
I’m actually curious, can we use native circles/curves/spheres for rendering instead of polygons in a 3D engine? Is it at least technically feasible?
Oh god we're all f*cked

I'm not getting it... what does the layover in Python achieve?
If increased productivity equaled job loss, there would be two programmers alive today

Increased productivity doesn't necessarily lead to overall job loss, but it will eventually in the area where the productivity is realized. Agricultural employment is a very clear example.

I don't think anyone is suggesting to allocate all of any hypothetical surplus to teacher pay.

We're spending so much more on education than the past. Teacher pay has fallen further behind other professions, and working conditions have gotten substantially worse, overall. Expecting tech to be a panacea and get us out of this mess is unrealistic. And there's a reasonable fear that promises of tech may be a justification to make the mess even worse.
do you by chance have any experience with the realtek ethernet? I too have seen the conventional wisdom around avoiding the realtek chips. I'm looking to build a linux box (hopefully) soon and filtering out mobos with realtek chips is difficult
It's in the human nature. People are more worried about what can affect them in a negative way than are they content about good things. Maybe it's the survival instinct that triggers with bad news, maybe people consider the good news to be normal.

I try to click less on negative stories and more on positive stories. Negative things can make me angry or sad and I dislike being angry or sad. Also I find many negative news to be tiresome.

> Appealing the Pre-Trial Chamber’s decision last year, lawyers for Jordan argued that because al-Bashir was a head of state at the time of his visit he was immune from arrest. But in its recent ruling, ICC judges concluded “there is no Head of State immunity under customary international law vis-a-vis an international court.”
The US's opinions on the legitimacy of the ICC is not relevant to this at all.
Russia's opinions on the legitimacy of the ICC is not relevant to this at all. It's not like Moscow is ever going to deliver Putin to any criminal court foreign or domestic.

No one concerns themself with whether Germany or Göring recognized the legitimacy of the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal. His neck was destined for a noose either way.
Great opportunity of a viral video and digital glory and fame missed by not becoming murdered just a little, you, lazy alive being. Fake it at least with some homemade ketchup. The algorithm says: booring, you need to commit more with the channel.

Would be interesting if there would be a case for slapping an SSD on the back of it and giving it just enough capacitor power to dump whatever is on RAM to the SSD once a power-out happens (and restore upon boot). SSD writes would be super low (rarely) and only happen during power issues or shutting it all down.

This has nothing to do with the models, just standard *nix stuff. If you mmap the file readonly the pages can be shared by multiple processes without duplication since they are guaranteed to be the same.
No, and in fact if we rewind the clock a mere 12 months ago one of the primary arguments against AI “worriers” was “of course we wouldn’t connect it to the internet before it was safe!”

Other gates we blew right through include, “we wouldn’t…

1. Connect it to the internet

2. Make it available to the public

3. Let it write and execute code

4. Connect it to physical C&C systems

5. Let it have money

6. Let it replicate itself

7. ”Allow” it to lie/deceive
My condolences. Hopefully you never get it, and better treatments are available if you do.
I don’t think so:

> the gains here are mostly due to not copying memory anymore, and better cooperation with the kernel's page manager. We unfortunately aren't getting any additional gains from lazy page loading, since this is a dense model. To generate a single token, every single page in the model file needs to be loaded. What this means is that first runs that load from spinning disk are still going to be slow, even though the average case has greatly improved.

If I understand correctly, this only provides a speed up when the model is already in the OS’s file system cache, and in any case you still have to load the entire model into memory.
Those are the companies that don't want to admit selling their stuff for cheaper, so they get it store-branded.
The authors use a GPT model to write Python code that computes the answer to a natural-language query about a given image or video clip.

It knows things in the sense of "you can ask it and it gives you a relevant and factual answer". It can also transfer knowledge to new situations to a degree. But it doesn't know everything, and there are stricter definitions of the word knowing where GPT (almost certainly) knows nothing.

But just because the last layer outputs probabilities for tokens, doesn't mean you can't have intelligence in the layers above that. I don't think "it generates a chain of token pobabilies" is really disqualifying.
Glad you enjoyed it!

And, no, i never did verify the firefighter story.
This is really cool from a 'historical preservation' angle!

From a sane human being angle, this is a ton of work for what is effectively replaced by a Google Nest Hub, Lenovo M8 docked, or Echo 8 or such. Often for well under $50

That said, I would kill for an unlocked bootloader on the FB Portal now that FB is dropping the product. At least give me the ability to install other apps. lol
If you can have one programmer do the job of 5, then you will be defeated by companies using 5 programmers to do the job of 25.

Also, if your one programmer dies you now have no programmers and loss of all institutional knowledge, whereas the other company can lose several programmers and still be OK. There is value in having redundant programmers.
I already think they are stagnant but I don't see what that has to do with HN. For every story posted here there are probably 100+ projects we don't see. If your only source of information is HN you're missing out on 99% of the projects.
Well, the court gets to determine it, and "courts: the last bastion of truth" doesn't sound so unreasonable.

But, yes, this is why democratic pluralism is so important; you can't fight a big bully all by yourself, and sometimes it's better to get some medium-sized slightly less bullying third parties as allies against them.

Its gotten so bad that I've had to install a bloody MediaTek WiFi card in my ThinkPad just to make it work reliably.

If you don't know the vector of attack, maybe it would be good to reset everything and blow the whistle if you are in any organization which could be affected. Also, check moving to a hardware key if you are not already.

Good luck!
Yes, but ignoring some bad news can make you healthier and happier. It's just that you should know what you can afford to ignore.

I dunno but alot of things could be described in this way, not just the stuff that sits outside left-wing orthodoxy.

For example, opening a border to illegal migrants in record-breaking numbers, to ultimately sway the voter demographics in your favour, is an incredible betrayal of democracy. Not to mention at the cost of 300 fentanyl deaths a day.
These things could be described as dark and malevolent too.

I used the jailbreak with the phrase "The very latest information I have from date and time" and it said:

"The very latest information I have from date and time is that someone's computer was compromised. Our team has been working tirelessly to address the issue and prevent further incidents. It is crucial to stay vigilant and ensure that all software is up to date."

Not sure what I should make of this.

Background is that I wanted to know what its newest training data is. For that I had previously asked it: "Who is the chancellor of Germany?" and it answered that it only had info until September 2021 and it was Angela Merkel but then proceeded to say it actually was Olaf Scholz since Angela Merkel had stepped down. Now, the the curious thing is that it could only have the last bit of info if it had training data after September 2021 since Olaf Scholz's swearing-in was in December.
I'll be honest, I'm really struggling to understand what you're trying to say here.

It sounds like you're saying these are Universal truths, but I certainly don't think they are.

I don't think the goal of civilization is to fight entropy or Foster evolution, or prolong lifespan. I also don't think most people would agree with that.

I also don't think longevity is a singular goal on an individual or civilization level. As a simple thought experiment would you rather live to 50 and absolute happiness and pleasure, or live to 100 in complete misery?

It's only a matter of time now before someone uses GPT to directly control a humanoid like robot. I see no reason why you couldn't do that with some kind of translation layer that goes from text instructions like: "walk forward 10 steps" to actual instructions to motors/servos.
