Yes, but we are in a world of abundance. Most people carry around what would be in 1980 a 10 million dollar supercomputer in their pocket.

10 years from now we might have the equivalent of what today costs 10 million dollars today. Automated farming means what today we consider high end and expensive produce becomes almost free. Automated transportation means that food gets delivered to you for almost nothing. Imagine you had a 95% off coupon on Uber Eats. Does that sound terrible? If so why? Because it also means that Jeff bezos gets a 2000 foot yacht?

Edit:---------

I'm getting a lot of doom and gloom respones. And you all are right, there are a lot of people who do not have food/shelter/cheap colleges. But what you all probably are not aware of is that 100 million people have risen out of poverty in India over the past 15 years. Your word view is being warped by the doom and gloom media. I would suggest reading just the beginning of the book factfulness. It will totally change your view of the world and probably make you much happier.
No, the plugins are server-side software, but the server isn't checking if the user is allowed to use the plugin requested by the client.
The police are an arm of the state, and have virtually unlimited power to dispense violence, even in seemingly illegal circumstances. There is no power theoretically greater than state power in the USA; the enforcement arm of the state does not need or deserve a union.
Hell there are things I’d probably take a big pay cut to do, but it would take years of my life and large amounts of money just to retrain.
The really frustrating part to me, is that every year the frontend claims they have finally slowed down and that things are stable.

I just did the "create-next-app" and, I can't claim that all of that is not eventually needed in some form or the other; however, it is mind blowing that I think I know how to hello world a video game with less crap here.

That point is crazy to me. Yes, if you are making a multi platform game, you will need a ton of boilerplate. Will far outstrip the boilerplate that this react thing gave me. Same for if you have a large team building a web based application.

However, for dipping your toes in to the frontend part of a web page, it is boggling to me that they also push so much on you that are not directly front end concerns. Worse, there is a ton here to help with "fast" web pages. Problem is, most of the slow pages out there are slow because the teams just can't keep up with all of these shifts in how you are supposed to do things. Every page that is actually fast, simply stayed with how to do things years ago.
Except that these are different -- the second returns an iterator (at least in python3). You'd need

list(map(float, integerList))

for them to be equivalent.

(It doesn't matter in a lot of cases, but there are enough edges where it does. Json serialization for one)

Use ChatGPT from a Terminal (Need OpenAPI's API Key)
I built a terminal-based ChatGPT with some manipulation functions. I find it's handier to use ChatGPT on the terminal. Also, using API is more stable than the official web app.

I built it to use myself. Later on, several friends showed similar needs. So I decided to publish it. I will add more features along the way.
Dall-e 2 was claimed to need A100s. Stable Diffusion runs on 6 year old gamer cards.
Both of my parents were police as well. That is why I believed them when they told me never to talk to cops.

It is not a matter of good cops and bad cops. The issues are systemic and often complicated.
Could the Bloom model be used with this training to build a commercial allowed small-ish model?
> Yesterday, I watched someone upload a video file to a chat app, ask a language model “Can you extract the first 5 s of the video?”, and then wait as the language model wrote a few lines of code and then actually executed that code, resulting in a downloadable video file.

I missed this. Can someone show me what he is talking about?
Has anyone diaried out a good learning path for going from a larger pre-trained model to a fine tuned model? Trying to understand all of the parts here but it sort of hard to fine anything linear...
Good call. Thank you for the reminder. I think I’ll go to the local pub tonight, have a beer and listen to some live music.
The only reason that is possible is that cryptocurrency is underregulated in the countries they are fleeing to, not because of any magical properties of Bitcoin. Those countries will soon regulate it to stop money laundering, making it completely useless.
Have you reached out to your previous employer? Maybe they have opportunities for some small amount of work for you to get you on your feet.

Seven years of experience is enough, but I am not familiar with mobile development.

What are you trying to explain to the hiring manager? That you want to go to school while working?
It's a mixed bag though, how many civil calls for police misconduct are falsely made? I'm an avid supporter of body cams for cops, wouldn't mind seeing this for all public officials/offices tbh, and kind of wish it was all live streamed for anyone/everyone to capture.

The unions are literally the legal defense for the police... they are supposed to do that. And police protect their own, like most people in any tribalistic group. The power and repercussions for those that are bad guys in the system is definitely outsized in terms of influence and effect.

Again, and I feel I have to repeat this... I do not condone, or favor misconduct. I think police, generally speaking have too much power and gov't employees as a whole too much protection from liability for their actions. I'd like to see govt, and police reduced as much as reasonably possible, and strongly favor 2A and self defense.
> whether tbey pursue it or not remains to be seen.

Pursue what though?

UMA is cool, but kinda meaningless if the majority of Macbooks are min-spec. That leaves you with 4-5gb of VRAM, assuming you've left nothing open. What is Apple going to do with that UMA that other manufacturers cannot?

It's certainly nice that 128gb Macs exist for models that might be too big to otherwise load into memory. It's useless for production inferencing though, and I struggle to imagine the "opportunities" they're missing out on here.
I doubt this third option exists. If the AI(s) lack empathy for us and we are useless to them, they will either exterminate us directly, or indirectly by denying us resources. If they have empathy for us, they will probably let us live good lives. I doubt we will be useful to them, so I doubt there is a scenario where we live miserable lives working for the AI(s).
Why is anyone dedicated to an ideology? It's not a means to a different end, it's an end in itself.

As far as any personal inconsistency is concerned, humans are naturally inconsistent, and give themselves exceptions to their professed rules.
Does anybody else think it's extremely damning that a mature framework such as React still has no agreed up on way to start a project? One of React's initial selling points was that it was a library, not a framework! React is unopinionated! Etc. Perhaps some opinion might have been better, in hindsight.

How is `react new` not a thing?
If you could make it so you can completely turn off the dGPU through software (boot menu?), pulling no power, it would be insane. I would love the power of a dGPU to play casually on trips but turn it off for normal use when I'm just working. Also, I LOVE that it wouldn't look like a gaming laptop. I'm tired of the gamer-esque design cues, even when they're subtle (RGB keyboards are okay if configurable).
Mixing up OpenAI with OpenAPI here ?
It depends on what a cop does when he sees misconduct by others. Christopher Dorner reported misconduct, but was ostracized afterward. He sought justice in his own way afterward:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Dorner_shootings_a...

Not really relevant, but the ridiculous (and secret) police response once they knew they were being targeted had bad consequences for others too. I have a house near where this multi-agency incident (links below) occurred and there was so much gunfire for such a long period that I knew it had to be cops doing the shooting.

The only thing Bard is better than ChatGPT at is responding more like how a human would response. Other than that Bard is very stupid compared to ChatGPT. I don't know if this is because of the "lightweight" model, but it impressive for a company with this much data, information, and computing power to release an AI as dumb as Bard.

It has told me 1+1=2 is a false statement lol.
For us the body and the parts of the brain for needs are there first - and the modern brain is in service to that. An AI is just the modern brain. Why would it need anything?

I mean.. many states have implemented significant reform. Colorado has had a number of high visibility issues and has made meaningful changes due to the protests and media coverage. It’s just not true to say there hasn’t been systemic changes.
I'm afraid it's a thing now, like prompt artists.
Yeah, since the BS they generate can all be done better by ChatGPT.
You'll start with competent consultants; they will slowly rotate in new consultants with less competency for as long as you let them, until they are all useless at anything other than talking confidently.

You've worked for companies with halfway decent management. Unfortunately, that's not universal.

Think about if from the perspective of the consulting firm. They are charging $X per hour and paying their staff $Y per hour. Profit is $X-$Y, and their incentive is to maximize the delta. If you let them continue to increase the delta, why wouldn't they?

I feel the sun is about to set on general purpose computing. Everything from here on out is going towards being silicon locked.
No, sorry. My time there is not something that needs to be shared publicly.
ChatGPT, how did you get here? It was a long journey through open source AI
Prompt Injection in GPT Plugin
I don't think so. Look at a whole bunch of SV companies, for instance.

If the browser doesn't support rebeccapurple then there's a whole bunch of other features that also won't work.
What happened to football stadiums?? /s
Yeah, honestly I see using a regular search index as a downside rather than benefit with this tech. Conflicting info, or low quality blogspam seem to trip these LLMs up pretty bad.

Using curated search index seems like a much better use case, especially for private data (company info, docs, db schemas, code, chat logs, etc)
Oh, now I see, thanks!
I think the point is more that the primary edge that they (Meta, OpenAI, etc.) have is compute capacity, since the models are easy to implement (and the most of the training data is out there). Once you have the weights, you can do with it as you please.

This is probably why they hate/fight these leaks. Once the model weights are available, they lose much of their competitive advantage.
What happens to social mobility in the post GPT world. Given that knowledge work (not just software) has been one big option for people to climb the social ladder. If the AI can reasonably do all knowledge work in future, the amount of social climbing opportunities will drastically decrease. And no, UBI will not create more opportunities for social mobility. It seems like more and more people will have to compete with the fewer and fewer social climbing opportunities.

Also what happens to Europe? All these companies behind LLMs are from US, and Europe is nowhere to be found. This seems like it will dramatically accelerate the wealth different between the US and the EU.
awk '{print $3}'

is what cut should have been all along. Specifically, this will give you the third space delimited field, where multiple spaces are coalesced.

cut -d ' ' -f 3

will get you whatever is between the 3rd and 4th space.
Absolutely agree. I have those keys remapped to an additional left and right arrow on my T480 because I was constantly pressing them while navigating on the command line and it would erase my entire command.

That's the problem. It's how a Big Mac makes for an interesting eat. Interesting but not nutricious...
No. IT layoffs are because companies realized they could do layoffs.
You're arguing against an imaginary totem instead of what I actually wrote.

> Communism and the communist party have never been part of the question

De facto/de jure. Nobody wants it (de facto), I've demonstrated by linking to the actual parties that de jure it's totally been an option.

Those parties I linked, you could have voted for, but y'all didn't.

Given I've explicitly said I'm not talking about dem/rep culture war nonsense, your over-detailed rant about McCarthy (who, you may be surprised to learn, was sufficiently relevant to your politics that his actions are well known on the other side of the Atlantic and his name is likewise used as a derogatory term) was a waste of your own time.

I am specifically and literally referring the idea of private ownership of the means of production, which is in the actual literal Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei as written by Karl Marx in 1848.

Which I have in fact read.

Section 2, English translation, has the following passage:

"""
The proletariat will use its political supremacy, to wrest, by degrees, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the State, i. e., of the proletariat organized as the ruling class; and to increase the total of productive forces as rapidly as possible.
""" - https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Manifesto_of_the_Communist_Pa...

That, right there, is why not having Communism in the USA means that rich people get to keep their stuff out of public hands.

Now, do you know some other political ideology besides communism that wants to remove control of factories from their owners? Because that would be an additional option beyond the dozen or so communist parties of the USA coming 7th-25th in a two-horse race, and the complaint being made against OpenAI is that it's not letting users do whatever with the tools that OpenAI made and own.

So far as I am aware, none of

> the rejection of [pastafarianism | soccer/futbol | anarchocapitalism | mandatory left-handedness | manual transmission cars | etc]

Have any causal connection to

> why rich people get to own and control businesses

(Maybe anarchocapitalism?) But that's the specific point of communism.

Which you as a nation reject, even though they're a thing you're not, AFAIK, banned from voting for.

I mean, reading what you've written, you and I definitely agree 100% that communists are not politically viable in the USA. I'm just saying that the logical consequences of their non-viability includes "rich people can own and control businesses".
The overwhelming majority of high-achieving students can't get in to Stanford to begin with, so it's hard for me to understand how being asked to leave Stanford could be ruinous.

GCM will use an embedded browser so you can authenticate with the UI including your second factor, which will then give you a credential/token that can be used in the git environment over HTTPS. It's still a (differt, oath vs reference generation) token, but you aren't having to go generate, configure and update it yourself.
New creators have success all the time, as will new software engineers.

But you’re right, the more level the playing field, the greater the competition.
I was investigating using wasm/wasi to implement a parser that is currently written in javascript, such that I would still be able to use it in the browser but also open up other avenues for it to be used on other platforms.

I got bogged down in the wasi/wasm debate and terminology and different available runtimes (or whatever they should be called) - wasmtime, wasmer, wasmedge, fermyon, bytecode alliance... I probably would have spent more time and figured it out if I didn't want to learn rust right now. Seems rust is the best supported language for wasm as far as I can tell.

Otherwise admittedly I would have used a large token context ChatGPT to convert the library to rust for me, and then also have it compile it to wasm.

Capitalists love it when people think that regulations are opposed to capitalism because then people will generally be against regulations, this allows capitalists to get away with things that make them greater profits like not disposing of waste properly or capturing markets with monopolistic practices
I don't know the full details but Alpaca is from Stanford and only based on the LLamA (not a derivative work afaik). That said :

Also Meta's licensing here https://github.com/facebookresearch/llama/blob/main/LICENSE

Can't be sure what that license actually reffers to, the language model or just the tooling in the Git Repo.

I agree its a minefield, but with Meta I would eer on the side of caution.
Exactly. After all, this is the point of AI. That you don’t write the code/rules/weights yourself.
I am curious why would anyone expects that 3d printed tanks are a good idea. We have sheet metal, it has well controlled and probably close to optimal performance (that is, the maximum mechanical resistance that you can get out out of a given mass of aluminum or stainless steel). The resulting rocket is a long, hollow tube. What exactly do you gain by 3d printing the entire body, other than a nice investor buzzword?

I could see a gradual move to 3d printing, the engine of course with it's complex features, then the bulkheads, downcommer & manifolds, maybe fairing and other aerodynamically shaped pieces etc. But why would you try to print sheet metal transversely, one slice at a time? What possible design you could think of, other than a long, slender tube, that can utilize the flexibility of 3rd printing and provide value to justify the necessarily reduced mass ratio ?

They are instruction tuning it using the dataset released by stanford-alpaca team. The dataset itself is synthetic (created using GPT-3) and somewhat noisy and in my view can be easily recreated if OpenAI ever tries to go after it (which is very unlikely). Anyway, facebook has nothing to do with anything used by this project.

Zero is the number of workplaces that would wait for a police report before terminating someone for throwing a beverage. The unreality of these kinds of message board discussions when it comes to getting the police involved to settle disputes always throws me. I mean, get a police report if you want to press charges, but Stanford is under absolutely no obligation to involve the police before threatening expulsion.
Or, much more likely, their internal "safety" red team is simply aware of the literal most common jailbreak for their product, and either

a) wanted a quicker way to use it without having to paste it into every chat

b) knew the someone would eventually make a DAN api with or without them, and needed to test what would happen

And were just doing the responsible thing and doing internal testing. Like, there's a lot of things OpenAI is doing wrong, but this is in no way evidence for a "OpenAI are keeping a special unsafe model for themselves" conspiracy (other than the fact they obviously have access to the raw GPT4 model somewhere, which you didn't need evidence to know that)
Check out Dr. Gabor Mate on YouTube. He is a trauma specialist who has recently become quite mainstream popular but one of those “40 years in the making” overnight successes. There is a recent documentary on him as well - The Wisdom of Trauma.

Check out as well “The Body Keeps Score” about the physical somatic approach to trauma relief by another well known researcher. This one changed my life.

Some immediately practical advice: Exercise, every day. Even if just walking. More is better (aim for 60 min). Volunteer (not just for the feel good consequences of being part of something, but also for the interaction). Better yet, volunteer outside if you can (being in nature helps and sunlight helps with vitamin D). While you’re at it, make sure you have enough vitamin d (I can always tell when my levels are low and add some supplements and within a day feel better). Stop with drugs & alcohol & social media & video games.
It's not about privacy, you can record anyone in a public place, it's about publishing and monetizing work using someone's identity after.

>If you are a software engineer, this will output your productivity ten fold on the upcoming years. Now you don’t need to hire junior devs and can just build the product of your dreams with very limited capital.

This 10x productivity absense of a 10x expansion of programming industry (which is very unlikely) translates to less developers in general, including senior ones. Even more so in an economy like this...

>It means competition between companies will increase but it isn’t necessarily bad for existing software engineers, especially solo founders.

"Solo founders" is what? 1/10,000 of working programmers? And they're absolutely not the ones people worry about regarding GPT replacements...
Is there some other arrangement? It was originally a nonprofit, so there might be something else going on, like board voting rights that he doesn't have to give up - or special voting shares.
I seriously doubt you’re writing the same kind of webapps you were a decade ago, if so you’re a minority. Regardless a decade doesn’t “refute” that the web itself is a total disruption of the way people wrote code prior. This industry is always changing paradigms and were constantly exposing more high level ways to instruct the processor.
Your explanation is crystal clear. I suppose it works well in practice, but is there any reason it works that well?
Just in case anyone is curious, you can get the current github host keys from their HTTP API[1]. Our deploys fetch the latest and add them to a known_hosts file as part of the process. We set the `GIT_SSH_COMMAND` environment variable to use a temporary known hosts file with just the needed keys on each deploy. We do it in fabric with Python, but here's similar bash:

curl -s https://api.github.com/meta | jq -r '.ssh_keys | join("\n")' | sed 's/^/github.com /' > /etc/github_known_hosts
GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -o UserKnownHostsFile=/etc/github_known_hosts" git pull
