Nice. I'm going to dig through these tomorrow. Thanks for posting! The PR review helper looks excellent and I'm excited to try it out. Til about `pandoc` and `glow`.

I whipped up a nice, performant branch picker last night that I'm pretty happy with, hopefully there are some useful tidbits for others. It's similar to your `flog` command but it uses the reflog to find the most recently checked out branches. It filters those which have been deleted using a set structure (well, map of bools), thus requiring BASH 4+. I'll be interested to see the differences in behavior and performance of your approach

I just made this account and this is the first topic I seen. It's an interesting theory. I think that cryptocurrency is the future of all governments currency and I like the idea. I'm a business grad and my gf is a investment baker specializing in cryptocurrency. My question is if I could do this would you be willing to put your money in a account at my bank? This is basically what you pay a investment banker to do. I just wonder if people would want to use this service. I personally like the idea and probably would use it. Cryptocurrency has been on a huge bounce back and will continue to rise.

How does that work? Say 10 companies are competing for the best talent. All of them offer the public going rate, except 1 which offers 10% more. Guess where the talent is going? To the one that offers 10% more, and now the other 9 companies are incentivized to pay more if they want to attract top talent.

I don't understand how secretive salaries benefit anyone other than parties trying to get away with paying lower.
In the 80s and 90s it was a bedroom community for Silicon Valley. I used to commute to Palo Alto from SF.
As others have pointed out LPCis as dead as ISA is these days.

Lunches at Apple may be subsidized, but they are relatively expensive.
They are fully decentralized networks that no one controls. A security requires some issuing company or person.

Almost every other cryptocurrency has one or a small group of person that can take control of the chain / app.
Some people are really good at writing software, other people are really good at running systems. k8s/cloud allowed the former to pretend to be good at the latter.

One problem is government buildings employ many other people like security, maintenance, repair, etc. People commuting into cities spend money at businesses within the city. It's easy for us to say remote work is better but it will come at the cost of many businesses failing (see: SF)
@unity, my original statement was this:
"My knowledge is that European urban planning was very similar and car centric until the late 60s."

I think the citations quoted above from multiple sources generously support this. Again, that is not at all saying that all of Europe was rebuilt in the 1950s-1960s willingly and entirely to be car centric. But, the _planning_ of new construction/reconstruction were similar during that period in both the USA & Europe (and Europe by-and-large stopped their new constructions in that style around the early 1970s while the USA by and large did not). There is even a mention in one of the quotes of a lot of that construction having been torn down.

I'd say Warsaw, Prague and Paris are all great examples. Warsaw was completely rebuilt and downtown is car centric (looks very much like an American city). Prague was somewhat unscathed and has a very historic layout, Paris is a mix of reconstruction and historic urban planning. The point remains that there was a pretty specific car-centric urban planning style that dominated in Europe in the late 1940's-1960s.

All that is to say - European urban planning was also, at one time somewhat recently, largely car centric. It is really notable that stopped being the case and is an example for US cities - that they can also transform away from being fully car-centric.
Gee wiz, it’s not like “rug pulls” exist. That’s definitely not a thing that would ever happen and no way would there ever need to be regulation to prevent gullible people from being scammed.
I presume the 2035 number comes from the depreciation plan, which mostly depends on tax rules set by the relevant taxation departments (you mostly depreciate capital as fast as possible to claim it as an expense as soon as possible: profit today is worth more than profit tomorrow).

The reasons you would recycle them are:

1: availability of land is a constraint (unlikely in much of Australia where you would install fields of panels).

2: power lines are capacity limited (unlikely during morning or evening when power most valuable?)

3: destroyed by weather.

4: maintenance costs exceed dollars gained by selling the power (+ selling stability + selling availability + other).

Hopefully they send the panels to a third world country (if they have some life left in them). Put a refundable deposit on each panel with an ID to ensure they are not just unethically dumped: a high enough deposit to ensure it is worth returning them, but low enough that it isn’t worth stealing them just to get the deposit.

I don’t know much about the industry, but being green means acknowledging the fundamental economics, not being ignorant.

SF’s downtown was a dead zone in the 70s and early 80s. Market street was boarded up.

Why would anyone expect that their conversations with ChatGPT are confidential to the point where you could just delete the logs and pretend you never asked?

Trash is just to drop it from your history, I don't care to keep every conversation, and I also don't care if OpenAI keeps a copy, why should I?
While [pre-GPT-4 ChatGPT] performs non-trivially on both tasks, there is no comparison with the outputs from GPT-4. These preliminary observations will repeat themselves throughout the paper, on a great variety of tasks. The combination of the generality of GPT-4’s capabilities, with numerous abilities spanning a broad swath of domains, and its performance on a wide spectrum of tasks at or beyond human-level, makes us comfortable with saying that GPT-4 is a significant step towards AGI.
It would be amusing to put in a gun recognizer, so unless you enable porn, you can't look at pictures of guns. Just to annoy Idaho.
I find it more depressing than anything. It's looking like short-term societal/economic shock and existential risk on the long term.

Nonproliferation is really hard to do with software.

Of course, it's also been nice having a semi-intelligent personal assistant and what sometimes amounts to better search.
Thank you weiznich! Tbh, it's really hard to come up with concrete proposals to solve these problems, and I still haven't figured out how much of the "not-super-easy-to-learn" issue with Diesel is inherent complexity that can't be avoided if one wants to have runtime-constructed-and-yet-compile-time-checked db queries in Rust.

I think it will require some thought. I hope that, once I get around to using diesel in a second substantial project (already using it for my first), I will write up my thoughts on how to make DX better for diesel.
Then what's everyone so mad about?
Okay, I found my error: deterministic measurement I proposed is impossible, it works only for factorized state, but entangled state produces second spooky result with uniform distribution, so collapsed photon is indistinguishable from noncollapsed.
How does holding the bonds to maturity help? Sure, interest rates might go down, but the expectations are already factored into the market price. If they go down more than expected, the bigger bank wins. If they go down less than expected, the bigger bank loses. Overall, should be neutral.
I just started this account and this was the first topic I read. I like the idea implied. This is basically what you're paying a investment banker to do. I'm a business major and my gf is a investment banker. My question is would you use this service if I provided it? Currently it would be an impossible feat to get such a thing Fdic insured but I believe believe cryptocurrency is the future currency of the world's and since the Fdx scandal has bounced back nicely and is on a steady rise
Wouldn't be a bad rule in general though.

The high volume of waste might actually be a plus here, since it would more likely to be practical and economical to develop a custom recycling/disposal process for them. Also, since solar panels are so large, sorting shouldn't be too big of a challenge.

Gambling is a pretty easy concept to understand, and it’s been with all of us since we were kids. Person A wagers an amount that a certain outcome will occur. Person B accepts that wager and agreed to the terms of the wager. If every kid on the playground can understand how a bet works I guarantee adults can too.

My mentor got me into fountain pens... It's nice to have a fine instrument for contemplation. Something a little more exciting to use than a regular pen, really encourages you to pick it up and write something just to watch the ink flow. Then your thoughts unfold and you keep writing just to see where it goes. I've been able to discover and clarify ideas many times through this process.

I suggest a lamy safari and a rhodia pad. You can get ink samples from goulet pens and try a bunch of different colors.
EU is perfectly ok with issuing fines to smartasses who abide by the word of law but violate the spirit of it. Like the whole iPhone USB debacle and how Apple got warned again and again when they announced they were trying to go around the requirements in "smart" ways

GPT-4's proof of the infinitude of primes, as quoted in the paper, is wrong.

Yes, I think I can,
Though it might take a clever plan.
I’ll start by noting Euclid’s proof,
Which shows that primes aren’t just aloof.
Assume we have a finite list,
Of primes, and that none have been missed.
Multiply them all together,
And add one, just to be clever.
The result will be a number,
That has no prime factors, oh wonder!

Not true. The result may itself be prime. For example, say your finite list of primes is {2,3}. Multiplying them together and adding one yields 2*3 + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7, which is itself prime. Hence it has a prime factor: 7.

But every number has a prime,
That divides it, it’s just a matter of time.
So we’ve found a contradiction,
And our finite list needs eviction.
There must be infinitely many primes,
And that’s the end of my rhyming lines.

A correct verison of the proof might say that the result has a prime factor, however, that prime factor is not an element of the supposed finite list, hence the list is incomplete.
I'm not sure anyone who did research on a closed source system, without a contract that enables access and a pathway to publishing can legitimately complain about OpenAI making commercial decisions to do whatever they want with their technology.

It's kind of like complaining that performance art is ephemeral.

If OpenAI were a nonprofit then maybe. But it's a true blue for profit company.

I'm not sure why the op is complaining that a SV company, or any company really is making decision that negatively affect some extrinsic value for the sake of money. I mean read the IPCC report. Everyone makes decisions for money rather than thinking about science.
This was dismissed early on wasnt it?
I was on Market street today around 6pm and it was crowded, loud, full of life. And that's even on a slightly rainy Wednesday. You clearly haven't been so recently?
The main thing that I miss about Dark Sky is that it realized where I live. Not the larger city next door.

I live in a tiny alcove surrounded by hills and our weather can be up to 5 degrees cooler than the valley south of me.

Apple Weather just doesn't offer that precision.

The disappearance of Dark Sky is literally what Apple has been doing to the whole computer world. Enforcing their direction, because it's better, while taking away your choice.

There are certain things that shouldn't be summarized. Weather is one of them.

The Weather UI is a (failed) exercise of trying to reduce a days worth of weather in a single icon.

That's overly general. The unix APIs don't meet requirements if you need to reliably and safely reap child processes, and all of their descendants. And on linux, there are non-posix APIs that help in certain situations (pid namespaces and pidfds).

And for many, maybe most, applications, leaking a child process isn't really a problem.
Im pretty sure the 'puritan americans' made none of those things
I liked the site, but...

Final dslr reviews took weeks, sometimes months or longer to be delivered to the people. I mean, when every gungho yt content creator shits out "reviews" on release day 1, what did they expect?

The now we're gonna make video reviews initiative was very, very shallow with lots of fillers.

Their forum was the absolute worst ever conceived.

News and article writing was rooted in the 90s era like content creation.

So in essence zero evolvement in the last 10+ years. All this while sitting in the shadow of a megacorp... well, it was quite a feat.
Personally I disagree, there are lot of interesting tidbits in this paper. More than marketing would need at least.
>The only thing I know that can help with this is accepting in one's heart that humans are nearly entirely wrong about nearly everything, and making peace with it.

I can't. Being wrong means that people exterminate themselves. It isn't something meaningless that doesn't matter.

>Also, people don't choose their views—for the most part we're conditioned by our backgrounds.

Ironically, this appears to be another symptom, just like the intensification of their existing beliefs by contrary evidence. Which also makes them intensify their belief in ever increasing progress even as the majority turns into savages.
The securities/commodities division is so strange, I find it hard to parse. Like, I understand "shares of stock" are different from "corn". Sure. But then you get into strange things and it's unclear which they are.
Most people in crypto aren't worried about crypto dying, they're worried the USA is shooting themselves in the foot and missing out on a huge new industry because of incompetence.
Poorly and frustratingly for users.
I wouldn't be able to retrain the model as my computer isn't capable enough, but I can change the prompt to change how the model acts. The prompt i'm currently using is:

"Below is an instruction that describes a task.
Write a response that appropritely completes the request."

That base prompt can be customized to complete specific tasks like classifying text or acting like an assistant.
I agree w parent that the end user is who matters--Siri is just not very good at answering what seem like basic questions.

What made google amazing was it settled conversational disputes or provided instant (if limited) familiarity on a subject. Siri fails to provide verbal feedback on relatively simple questions, instead referring people to their iPhones for "web results."

As an end user, the product's failure understand or make sense of the intent of a user is even harder to deal with in Home / HomeKit. I often find myself pulling up the Home app to hunt down and manually operate some accessory because voice requests are just failing.

Common patterns happen throughout a home covered in HomeKit and Homepods and yet this AI is unable to provide reasonable suggestions for automation modifications, scene tweaks or suggestions for additional accessories.

Siri-based requests for songs or albums from Apple Music on HomePod is abysmal, providing covers, or flat out wrong genre, wrong era that my listening habits should well weight away from.

It is just bad--architecture design be damned the product fails under "normal" use. Outwardly, it seems like a MobileMe-level failure, where SJ asked at a town hall "Can anyone tell me what MobileMe is supposed to do?"

All that said, I agree with this comment that it is a mistake to expect Apple to integrate LLM that uses any known model into its product.

Even if Apple wanted to, I don't know where the company could source data that is manicured to "safe" enough to serve as a basis for responses by Siri.

It doesn't really matter, to end users how they fix it.

The company's job is to drop the product or iterate until it figures out how to better satisfy they end user.
Part of it is the fact that they do it so much so they’re very good at it. China has laid more concrete since 2000 than the rest of the world combined prior to 2000. So the Chinese have a lot of expertise and a lot of the supply chain, and for example in Singapore the Chinese have built a lot.

By the way, much of the same can be said about manufacturing.

In the US a lack of construction has caused the industry to atrophy.
Of course the fossil fuel industry is completely silent on their established practice of recycling 0% of their emissions resulting from burning their fuels (and never mind the process of creating, exploiting, transporting those). It's an extremely dirty business in comparison. Pump up a few million tonnes of oil, ship it half way across the globe, refine it using insane amounts of energy, burn and dump the toxic waste that remains and truck the refined goods to its final destination. If you spell it out like that it drives the notion home just how dirty all of that business is.

Solar panels are mostly glass with some small amounts of metals. We're talking kilo grams vs. grams here. Most of that sits completely inert on your roof for decades with zero issues. It doesn't run of with rain water. You can collect that water and drink it or water your plants. It's perfectly safe. Some of the trace amounts of the non glass stuff is potentially toxic. That's what we're talking about. A lump of coal is way more toxic. Where do you think coal plants dump their ashes? Right: landfills! What do you think oil refineries do with the crap that remains after the refinement process. Or the raw materials like cobalt that they consume in the process. It's fine. Nobody gives a shit. In the grand scheme of what else they do it's not even worth talking about. The outrage regarding this is highly selective. Solar panels: OMG!!, coal: yawn who cares.

The issue of what to do with solar panels is an extremely minor issue in comparison. And of course it is potentially addressed 100% by investing in recycling processes. Any suggestion that landfills are the only solution here is basically horse shit. The cost benefit analysis of recycling vs. using landfills is a bit of a thing in terms of cost / benefit of course. But arguably, the recovered materials are valuable commodities. Like copper for example. So there's that. But compared to what we dump in landfills already, it's basically a negligible issue.

Articles like this are of course not independent journalists raising innocent (or even remotely original) questions but billions of dollars of lobby money financed by the fossil fuel industry hard at work rehashing myths, half truths, and other horse shit. All of this has just 1 goal: delaying the inevitable for financial gains (at the cost of our planet). The goal here is manipulating public policy and public sentiments in order to delay the moment when they have to pull the plug on their sunk investments related to burning coal, refining oil, selling petrol, etc. Worth calling out just how manipulative the fossil fuel sector is. The tobacco lobby are absolute saints in comparison.
How can you possibly be a fair "enforcer" of a law that you refuse to specify?
We are intelligent adults here. We don’t have to pretend my statements were these fallacies. A fallacy is a fallacy eventually.

It’s possible I’m too autistic to understand why you are behaving the way you are. Your behavior and defensive mechanism baffles me if it’s in good faith. When I got into politics I spent a long time looking over all sides and never ever thought things like what you wrote. I always thought looking for the truth is the best thing.

For me it doesn’t make sense in my world view to be pedantic the way you are behaving. It’s a rather traditional autistic behavior though. I know i spend a lot of time masking to seem more normal and not be so pedantic).

In my eyes class is the only thing that matters. Do you not believe in material dialectics? Your views sound very libertarian from my reading on those politics. I don’t believe in private property so we will have to disagree on caring about ownership.
The IT guy for a car dealership in Milwaukee is allowed this kind of "lifestyle inflation" no problem. The point of Silicon Valley is that high level and differentiated computer skills can make you rich. Part of that might be slumming it a bit during the early stages of your career or startup, hence the commandment against lifestyle inflation. But in a career role, your Silicon Valley TC better give you a better lifestyle than what’s generic computer guy gets from a non-tech business in a normal metro area. And given prices here, that’s a big number.

Obviously Bay Area amenities are worth something. Are they worth descending an entire social class? Maybe to some. But I think most rational people will go fix the computers at that car dealership, and put their kids on the travel team. You are not obliged to live an austere life just because someone offered you a (locally) mediocre job in the Bay Area.

I like this post. It is honest. Are you OK with no upgrades and no new features? That is one advantage to the subscription / cloud-y model. That said, I agree with your sentiment. I usually stay away from subscription products.
I really agree with this. Oil exists in the ground, if we're sensible and pick the correct sites we have a lot of big holes in Australia that could find a second life being remote landfill that is sensibly concentrated.

It seems terrible but if we manage it well, and that's the real risk, we can probably end up solving a few other problems this way.
Yeah. Clearly no one goes there anymore. The place is too crowded.
I understand (1) and (3) seems somewhat self-explanatory (although the quotes around "solely" give me pause.) But I don't understand "common enterprise" at all.
