The main energy input for meat from animals is the sunlight shining on the plants that the animals eat.

The efficiency of that is utterly terrible. That's also the reason why any form of bioenergy from crops has such huge landuse requirements. It is likely almost impossible to do any worse with any technological process.
Not sure that’s relevant if you have no actual income. That’s fully subsidized.
It's the main reason beef and lamb are so much worse in terms of CO2-equivalent than pork or chicken, and cheese isn't good either.
I’d go back and show this guy the consequences and convince him to use other additives.
Machine learning is good at statistical sampling, approximation, and categoriztion.

Let's think about hash functions. Not inverting a hash, just applying one.

- A hash function has a bit-perfect map between input and output, "close" is not enough.

- A good hash function is designed to produce a completely different answer if even one input bit is changed. It's not a smooth function, in terms of the input space and the natural topology of the output space. Let me call that bit-sensitivity.

- I guess you could frame a hash as a categorization, but the number of categories would have to be the size of the output space, which is insanely big for any hash worth your time. You'd have to recognize 2^|bits in output|. Good luck!

So ML seems to be a very bad match for implementing the (forward) hash itself.

What about the inverse?

- The bit-perfection requirement is extremely onerous. Either the output of the inverse has the correct hash or it does not.

- At least the space of inputs which match a given hash IS a distribution (there are many inputs which yield the same hash, so there are many valid outputs given an input for the inverse hash). Unfortunately, because the purpose of the hash is to be bit-sensitive, the distribution of hash inputs (inverse outputs) is horribly multimodal.

- You can't generate the output of the inverse in stages, because the bit-sensitivity makes it nigh impossible to say you're meaningfully getting closer to the correct answer.

Also seems to be a bad match for ML.

Finally, some broader implications. Good hashes are hoped to be one-way functions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-way_function Inverting one succeeds with very little probability, by definition. If your approach worked it would show that there is SOME algorithm for inverting these functions and thus they are not one-way. That's OK, there's actually no proof that ANY function is one-way. But our current hash functions have survived years of intense scrutiny by human-intelligence experts. Learning to invert one would be a major, exciting development, upending an entire field. Not impossible, but a reason for skepticism.

I think it will be easiest to make fish muscles or even use cells from reptiles and insects. Those are less technologically advanced and sophisticated than red meat, speaking from an evolutionary perspective. And I heard at least some companies are trying to commercialize cultured tuna meat.

Even easier would be to identify the proteins that make up the taste of those meats, then use them in plant based meat replacement programs. Much of the satisfaction we get from meat seems to come from hemes, a class of proteins using iron to capture oxygen, and this is what makes meat red in the first place. There are also plant-based heme analogues. All of that is of course limited by consumer feelings.
this has always been my theory. We will never achieve or acknowledge true AI until it has replicated all of our flaws, at which people everyone will say "that's totally useless, why would anybody want that?"
Really interesting, thanks for sharing, I'm excited to try this out.

Would it also be possible to just train the model from scratch on commodity hardware and how big of a difference in training time would that be?

Their are many things are not happening good in India and political power occupied by the current ruling state is not able to handle situation as well. This is true that Modi makes things worse because he dont have vision or architecute to propose. Modi known by the name of friends of few very rich people and ingnoring rest of the issues which anybody can see in India like elephant in room. So its coming from people of India to support other political parties.
That's not really true. The energy used in the cultivation of their feed usually has the highest carbon footprint of the whole equation. "Grass-fed" and similar approaches don't scale up to the demand of meat. They require more land and more labor, all of which increases prices and increases competition for labor and arable land.
> The intent was to ensure that pension and fund managers were focused on their fiduciary obligation first and foremost

No, the intent was to make sure ESG and other factors could not be analyzed as a risk factor, when they plainly are risk factors, just inconvenient risk factors that oil lobbyists and the like would rather you didn't pay attention to. Biden did the right thing, and ensured pension/fund managers kept their independence.
> One of the nice things in Java is that we don't automatically copy ideas from other languages but deliberate on them first

Sure, but I’m sure it was not an automatic copy, but a well thought-out design by the very competent design team.

> It breaks encapsulation entirely

Records are almost by definition open. They are only the sum[1] of their constituents. They are part of a more data-oriented approach.

Of course the “old” OOP concerns may apply, and there is an escape hatch — one can make a class from a record, and with the coming destructors it won’t need any recompilation, every existing pattern match can work, yet its inner workings can be encapsulated. But this is not the primary purpose for them — they are just plain old data.

EDIT: though now that I thought a bit about it, hopefully with `withers` we get an alternative syntax for pattern matching on records, like `ColoredPoint { point: 3DPoint { x } }`. That way pattern matching won’t be tied to the order of the fields. Surely records don’t change often, but still.

[1] if we are being pedantic, they are the product of their constituents, they are named product types.
Refutes, it wasn't that people were reporting less crime or that cops weren't responding to violent crimes. It seems "active enforcement," or police departments going out of their way to "do policing," leads to an increase in actual crime committed.
“reasonably expected” works 99% of the time and then completely implodes 1% of the time.

It’s like building a seawall to protect against the next tsunami, and measuring the height of the seawall based on the worst past tsunami. But the worst past tsunami was completely unpredictable prior to it happening, based on all the lesser tsunamis that had come before it. And the future worst tsunami will be by definition worse than the past worst tsunami and similarly unpredictable based on all the lesser past ones.
Haha I wasn't aware I wrote it :)

If you think about it, it's pretty cool that we are at the stage where GPT not being able to satisfy such request correctly is 'interesting'.
Huhh?? But predictability is one factor of "ergonomic". I don't know why these are being tried to he painted as opposites.
"Grass-fed" doesn't scale to the meat demand. It's a complacent luxury for some people, and that's all it's ever going to be until the Human population at least halves or becomes mostly vegan (so some people can enjoy better meat).
I said high enough accuracy. Most people won't want to intentionally do the wrong thing.

Simple option is that someone could even handtype GPT content, but less than 0.1% or so will do that.
Thats one way to get people to pay for photoshop instead of pirating it I guess.

I've met a few such people and unsurprisingly none of them did it by following such advice.

It was always a combination of talent, circumstances and willingness to take huge risks. Not everyone has that and not everyone actually achieves this goal even when they do.
Curiously, most of the ac/nav/media controls in my Hyundai Tucson are touch (big touchscreen with the usual suspects, and a row of buttons that aren't part of the screen and could've been normal buttons, but are instead capacitive ones that don't provide any tactile feedback).

I am grateful they've decided to at least stop there.
I have used that for years, but there are downsides to the approach as well.

So, you revisit a window, and you want to start from where you left, but now, you might maybe wade through 100's of commands before you get back to that point in time. There are fixes for this too of course, my point is, that it doesn't come without side effects, and that is maybe why it isn't set as default behaviour.

"and once or maybe twice in 5 years of ownership have I manually adjusted vents."

I'm going to guess you daily drive mostly and don't pickup many groceries then, and probably don't have a wife/kids.

Blasting heat is usefull when e.g. you don't have windows, blasting cold is usefull when you have raw meat in the back and you don't feel like freezing too.

Or, you drive with someone with larger/smaller body mass or metabolism, you want to blast cold air, they want to be warm (adding/removing layers is not always an option).

There are numerous ways auto mode falls apart here, there are probably others I am not thinking of...I do know that when I take cars that have an auto mode in them it can be nice, but I usually get annoyed with them because something (blast of air, heat through the windshield) messes it up and I just want "cool" or "hot" air not to fiddle with bad UIs on dimly lit displays I can't see in the glare from the snow/blue sky to figure out the "right" temp to reconfigure too...

This is not completely new, we had tons of junk ads in mail and TV.

Humans are not too bad at learning to tune out the noise, it takes some time to adapt.

The most fundamental line that google crossed for me was the vendor licensing agreement for android.

The license prohibited vendors from forking android and an NDA prohibited the release of the licensing terms.

Anything else they did, I knew they were doing it; but gmail was just too damned convenient.
the irony being that extrapolating from Google's past behaviour with respect to their own products, it probably does make it a very reasonable prediction to say that Google Bard will be imminently shut down.

So paradoxically, for Google Bard to be successful (that is, make reasonable, historically supportable and fact based statements), it must predict its own death.
Polio was absolutely terrible for those who had it. I wouldn’t blame him for having it. Or for ending it. However, for other reasons, I agree with you.

No. But they are different. I myself may search for an image when I don’t have the will or need to create. Or, as a precursor to a creation. It’s the difference between searching an archive or stock photo site vs opening a graphics program.

To me, the interesting differentiation is from thinking a search engine being something than indexes information or a product that provides solutions to peoples problems and needs with a single point of entry. (Like why people type URLs into google search)

We’ve had search engines return the weather, or calculate a sum, for some time. It seems an obvious evolution for it to create solutions for users given lay users are probably already typing what they want into search.
> Twofer Goofer HQ's adherence to strict "perfect" rhyme can be tricky for those slant rhyme-inclined.

And yet one puzzle they hammer Bard for failing is "Cactus Practice". What accent do you have to have for that to be a perfect rhyme?
That sounds like Bard can be trained. I'm really curious if that was an exceptional emergency intervention because the PR team barged in, part of a larger batch of updates to Bard’s discourse about itself, or whether Bard re-trains on social media zeitgeist automatically. The latter would significantly improve over ChatGPT and make Bard measurably more useful for current affairs within months.

I’d love to pay for Bard’s moderate-person take on any news: ChatGPT also has that noncommittal style that people find unnerving but that I recognize from my training (drafting ministerial notes).
Food regulation in the US sucks. In the EU we have both a "higher level of regulation" and it's more effective in most regards. Maybe some food production is cheaper in the US, partly from less regulation, but not by much and you wouldn't know it from consumer prices.

Overall, most of the EU enjoys a high quality of cheap food (yes, it increased quite a bit the last year...) and the food safety is actually higher.
Now, use this library to "bootstrapp the smarts of LLaMA from its own smartness" like this:

1. Ask it things. Let it answer.

2. Ask it to find errors in the answer it outputted and for it to correct the answer.

3. Use the original prompt and the corrected output as training data.

This should, with each iteration make the model less and less likely to output statements that are self contradictions or obviously wrong, until the model can no longer spot its own faults.

Kind of, there's this whitepaper which describes one. It was released in November (so less than 6 months ago): https://wordcraft-writers-workshop.appspot.com/learn

I don't think it was ever public, apart from the whitepaper.
That's what social media encourages. It glamourizes certain lifestyles not among celebrities, but among your own friends.

I'm not sure how to put it but it's a lot easier to be a mean/nasty person online. Or it's just easier to hide that fact in real life.
The fact that it has always been there casts a great doubt on the claims about its toxicity. It can be found through the ages in human remains and in geological remains that clearly predate people.

I buy this outline but honest question, was the massive covid stimulus avoidable? I rode a bicycle around NYC during the early days of covid and it was a ghost town, like not a person on the streets in a city of 8 million. On the weekend I took a ride up state for a hike and virtually every business was closed on the way. It seemed inevitable at that point the economic consequences of this were going to be massive and I am kind of amazed it took this long. It feels easy to say these steps got us in this mess but I am wondering what the alternative was?
I'm sure cancerous cell lines exist, but could you show that those are used in cultured meats?

Could it be some of the deaths were caused by the instability that toppling the existing Saddam Hussein government caused and not only by direct US military involvement? Some consequences that come to mind are warlords battling for control of provinces, unleashed tribal factions now free to kill each other, collateral damage from US military attacks destroying critical civilian infrastructure like sewage treatment and medical capacity, starvation, etc.
That would be nice but very expensive and not so robust as moulded parts without any display/electronic on the surface. I wonder if there is a cheaper way of customizing the button icons than with OLED displays.
There is a concept in the armed forces for making decisions in a given timeframe (struggling to find a source for this). Essentially you do the best you can in the time you are given. Then you move on and iterate. If you dither too much you probably don't have to make a decision anymore as the enemy has made it for you. In that framework it is accepted that a solution is not perfect.

I think about these crises the same way. They had 48h to sort it out and they had to make a decision. The decision has side-effect-like consequences. Should she now lie about this?

So now, why did they only have 48h to make a decision? I don't know. I doubt nobody has thought about this before. But I assume that regulating banks is particularly hard, because of lobby pushback and the banks ability to exploit any loop hole quickly. They are literally organisations that look out for how to make money by exploiting asymmetries. These organisations work against the slow democratic decision making that involves non-aligned actors (who are also often not trained in this particular issue) in the upper and lower houses of parliaments of different countries.

Another question is. Why are small banks treated differently than big banks. I have read somewhere that small banks have less regulatory oversight. Maybe the decision is much more to support heavily regulated banks and not so much those which are for various reasons not as much regulated. Why would the government want to hold the bag that it was not allowed to look into?
I had a similar problem borrowing my wife's NC headphones. Months later I discovered Sennheiser BTD 600 which is basically an audio-only BT dongle (so it shows up as a USB headset). Now whoever wants to use the headphones just plugs in the dongle (it has both USB-A and USB-C). Works without a fuss.

Some advice: you may want to improve the instructions of the game. There's no clear indication of what to do when the first 5-letter word has been typed - it merely bumps the word if you type more letters, or shows a cryptic message "Type your guess on the keyboard to begin!" if the square is clicked.

As for visualizations, you may want to take a look at mathematical relations [1]. Each cell is a variable with the alphabet as its domain (which is pruned as you guess correct values), and the words are 5-arity relations between rows and columns. You may represent the local relations surrounding the cell pointed by the mouse.

Agreed. Like the section right after

> The conflation of suicide rates with forced sex here seems at best highly misleading. The sexual frequency number is rather obviously a reflection of two years where people were doing rather a lot of social distancing. With the end of that, essentially anything social is going to go up in frequency, whether it is good, bad or horrifying – only a 27 percent increase seems well within the range one would expect from that. Given all the other trends in the world, it would be very surprising to me if the rates of girls being subjected to forced sex (for any plausible fixed definition of that) were not continuing to decline.

If you look at the data from the cdc [0] there's no dip during quarantine like that paragraph would suggest leading to this sudden surge in comparison. Theres just an increase
