I didn't say there was an either or did I? But the US approach is definitely preferable to giving the most amount of public money to the people who already have the most. Larger sums of money should have been given to the poor with it tapering off gradually as income levels increased. Instead it was given out in the complete opposite way, with people at the top getting the most and those at the bottom getting the least. The pandemic could have been the perfect opportunity for a soft debt jubilee to rebalance the system. Instead, it was just another thing yet again exploited for the benefit of the 1%.

1. Redis can handle a lot more connections, more quickly, than a database can.
2. It's still faster than a database, especially a database that's busy.

#2 is an interesting point. When you benchmark, the normal process is to just set up a database then run a shitload of queries against it. I don't think a lot of people put actual production load on the database then run the same set of queries against it...usually because you don't have a production load in the prototyping phase.

However, load does make a difference. It made more of a difference in the HDD era, but it still makes a difference today.

I mean, redis is a cache, and you do need to ensure that stuff works if your purge redis (ie: be sure the rebuild process works), etc, etc.

But just because it's old doesn't mean it's bad. OS/390 and AS/400 boxes are still out there doing their jobs.

He also said "if you look around you will find a lot more Modis [that are thieves]".

In case it isn't clear, he messed up by making derogatory statement based on someone's caste. He should have known better, especially as an elected representative. He is lucky "Modi" isn't classified as Scheduled Caste/Tribes, rather as "Other backward castes". The provisions of SC/ST act[0] are even more draconian (no anticipatory bail, higher mandatory minimum sentences).

Definitely politically motivated in this case and definitely need to fix the criminal defamation laws, but he needs to be treated the same way a common man would.

I think you've got the wrong end of the stick. We're in this mess because of Thatcher, Reagan and TINA. Almost everyone now believes in capitalism in the same way that medieval peasants believed in the feudal system. That is, while they don't necessarily like it, they see no viable alternative.

This is true, and so you have to look at it case by case. I think if most developers look at the switching costs of bazel vs. just using a decent build tool like cargo, they wont make that tradeoff.

Similarly, they might choose some other tool out of google because it doesnt extract such a high price

I agree, but the part I’m failing to see in the conversation is what the future looks like.

If the chat approach is gaining visits, then ad companies will follow, so what then?

The chat offers up the same seo ad laden tripe but further obfuscates it, and alternatives, while caging it in a conversational tone?

Anecdotally, I have found that in doing non-urgent root-cause investigations, writing* is the only way for me to think deeply about a problem.

My flow looks like:

1. Write the impact of the problem as currently observed. This answers most Product and Executive questions and know I'm actively working on solving this problem.

2. List down ideas of what I think it could be.

3. Start exploring those ideas by priority.

4. Bring in Datadog metrics, log items, commands/queries

5. Have a conclusion for each of those ideas

This has multiplicative effects:

1. Others don't feel the need to have me in a Zoom call because they can follow my progress and comment on the doc if they feel strongly about something. I have full focus on the task at hand.

2. The doc becomes handy in outage review meetings and retrospectives later on

3. Useful commands/queries sometimes end up being formed here and I can go back and reuse them

This attack is absolutely the Google's fault, here is why (most to least severe):

1. Password/2FA change must require reauthentication

2. Session tokens must be limited to a single browser fingerprint (broser/device specific infomation)

3. Changing the password must terminate all active sessions

4. Session termination must invalidate session token for future use

5. It must be trivial to the user to terminate all active sessions

6. Serious actions like changing account handler/main info must require reauthentication

Any of the first 3 would've made such attack impossible. Any of the first 5 would've made regaining full access to the account trivial as a single button press.
There's two sides to every trading relationship. Even if the UK tries to reduce bureaucracy on their side, there's still all the bureaucracy on the side of the other countries they're trading with. And they literally just torpedoed all their trade relationships by leaving a large customs union that allowed them to trade with a large number of important partners with significantly reduced bureaucracy.

I agree with you that bureaucracy here is the problem, and Brexit was the cause of it.
And here it is, two years later, falling. Not as fast as the most optimistic predictions in the article. Not as slow as it would be if it were the fault of administration policies, which have not changed in the past two years.

Given that there has been a war putting a serious crimp in worldwide supply chains, this seems like a prediction that was reasonably correct at the time.
I built my own CPU cluster with mATX AM3s connected via a switch, powerful processor/RAM and everything else was as cheap as possible. At the time, it easily saved money compared to AWS.

The biggest issue I had was overheating. The small mATX cases don't fit fans sufficient to cool powerful CPUs running at 100% 24/7. So, you may have to get midsize cases, or leave the cases open with fans sticking out, which is louder.
I believe that we can make a small dent on this problem if we improve the technology that runs greenhouses. (My bias: I work for a startup that is working on this and I'm kind of obsessed with the industry.)

Here is what current greenhouse tech looks like: a human (called a grower) uses their intuition to adjust hundreds of settings that parameterise what the actuators should do in different circumstances. For example, 20 settings might parameterise a 'ventilation setpoint line', which determines what air temperature the vents should start opening at given a measurement of the solar radiation intensity from a weather station. All the different actuators (heating pipes, vents, screens, misting systems, irrigation systems) have their own set of heuristics that need to be adjusted by hand..then beneath that a low-level control layer (e.g., PI control) manipulating individual motors/valves.

It's crazy but the grower has to manually adjust the settings as the weather, energy prices and crop state changes. With better software/automation we can improve the control of the environment within the greenhouse and thereby increase yields [kg/m^2] and minimise energy costs.

If the farmers are producing more tomatoes per m^2 for the same input costs they can afford to sell them to consumers (via supermarkets) at lower prices and still make money. It won't solve all the problems but would be a step in the right direction.
that's not how it works, arm wants a bigger cut, they aren't trying to make the pie smaller
> There seems to be a widely accepted and unchallenged consensus that political power is unable to address inflation.

Political power can address inflation, and it can mitigate the effects of inflation on the less well off. These are, however, often opposed goals.

E.g., massive taxes on the working class with no added spending would kill demand-driven inflation, but also make the non-rich worse off.

OTOH, downward redistribution by spending (possibly coupled with high end taxes) would mitigate the low-end effects of inflation, but increase the magnitude of conaumer price inflation.

Price controls create black markets, but usually do not control effective prices.
The thing is, in every application, if you touch one of them by accidents, you can instantly hit the other one and you are right back where you were. On ThinkPad the page key have a different shape then the arrow key, its easy to feel what key your finger is on.

> My assumption based on the latency claims in paper.

The latency claims are based on the merged version, where the modifications are merged into the model weights. Hence there is no latency cost, since the final model has the same shape as the original.

> having that W0 forward process once with n distinct BAx paths (for distinct fine tunings!) would address that, no?

The tl;dr is that that works, but is more expensive. Not ridiculously more expensive, but certainly more expensive that processing a few additional tokens with prefix/prompt tuning.

Exactly, I feel it is because with Google advertisers are the real customers and they could not care less about user experience unless it affects that bottom line. Case in point is the removal of the dislike button which users loved but advertisers hated. Google is a rich one trick pony right now anyway.

If you have a hundred potatoes increasing the prices means many people won't be able to afford them and those potatoes will be wasted.

>The cynic in me says that there will be Chat-GPT generation of kids that won't be able to think rationally on their own

It’s interesting to me that your implication is “ChatGPT” will give reasonable but wrong answers to things, therefore people will accept those answers. It reminds me quite a bit of “no one will know math because calculators.”

There’s plenty of feedback loops that exist for exactly this problem. Kids submit GPT homework and it’s either correct (rendering the skill the homework was testing worthless), or it’s not, and those kids will be punished with bad grades. If anything it will teach a whole new generation how to analyze semi-unreliable text, in the same way Google taught millennials how to search though disparate sources and synthesize answers.

>the same way that kids and young people these days are completely unable to have a normal sleep schedule.

Conclusions: A lack of empirical evidence for sleep recommendations was universally acknowledged. Inadequate sleep was seen as a consequence of "modern life," associated with technologies of the time. No matter how much sleep children are getting, it has always been assumed that they need more.

Right, I would be surprised if Bing sees any sustained benefit. The search engine still sucks, and the way they integrated ChatGPT sucks even more. I use Google a lot less these days, but the beneficiary, in my case at least, is not Bing, but chat.openai.com, where I have become a paying customer.

I mean, this is a big part of the issue. Of course the issue isn't reproducible; Google is trying to do the search based on their model of what you want back.

The broader question may not be whether its Bing or Google. People may not be searching anymore to find the sites which can potentially answer a problem/query - instead they may just want the answer.

Please Sergey and Larry return and apply your original paper! Just update it a bit.
The main driver in inflation is monetary velocity - the rate at which money is exchanging hands in the market. Increases in monetary supply almost invariably lead to increases in monetary velocity, so the two are generally equated - but this is not strictly necessary. If I gave you a quadrillion dollars tomorrow, and you chose to simply keep it under your [rather large] bed, but otherwise continued living as you do - then obviously no inflation is going to happen, even though you just increased the monetary supply quite substantially.

So while one could nitpick some points about the specifics of government actions in relation to the monetary supply, even if we take all of your points for granted - there would almost certainly be inflation proportional to the amount given. The only way there would be no inflation is if this action didn't increase monetary velocity.

Very good analysis. I disagree with a fundamental point though: If you don't consider compute cost and just want the best possible AGI, then there's nothing stopping you from supercharging the mega-models with the same capabilities as the smaller models - and if the current scaling shows anything, the mega models will just become even better.
few comments:

1) i think its next to impossible to dis-aggregate the effects of climate change from multi-decade/century climate patterns. Not saying its not there, but that its incredibly hard to attribute perceived changes in our life time to specific causes.

2) i'd be much more amenable to the toxic pollution arguments here (arsenic etc), as it seems a bit vague to me that the change in climate for Montana brought on by global warming is actually bad (for them specifically vs. say pacific islanders who will be under water). my understanding is that we as a species will be net loosers from climate change, but there will be some localized winners (i'm looking at you canada/siberia).

3) I've got mixed feelings when "novel" legal arguments are brought forward, on the one hand people should have the right to be heard and access the courts, but the objective often seems to be to re-interpret the historical/practical/common understanding of a concept/word etc. and it feels like its really an attempt to use the courts as an end-run around democracy/legislating. as an aside i feel like people are absurdly hypocritical on this point, as they are all for legal challenges that would advance their cause celeb, but terrified/shocked/upset when a similar tactic is used to undermine one of their sacred cows.

Same. After falling in love with this layout, I just refuse to buy a keyboard that doesn't have them. These 2 keys alone are at least 50% of my decision to refuse to even bother with Apple hardware (the lack of OLED being another good 30%)

I fail to understand how people can accidentally hit a Page key instead of a arrow key, if they know touch typing and use the little bump on the Down key (like the F ahd J key) to reposition their finger.

In the worst case, they could disable these keys. Meanwhile, I have to suffer their non existance, or even worse: a ridiculously large left and right key, with a minuscule up and down key.
