Reactivity is magnitudes simpler and more performant than react style state diffing, it's also much harder to write bad performance code because there's no react style re-rendering. The basic form of signal can be just

function signal(value) {
const subs = []
return {
get: () => value,
set: (newValue) => {
value = newValue
subs.forEach(f => f(value))
},
sub: (action) => subs.push(action),
}
}

For building UI, when the component constructor sees a signal object being passed either to a property / children they'll automatically subscribe to the updates of this signal, and update the HTML property / children when there's an update to the signaled value. With this there's almost no overhead beyond setting those stuff yourself with vanilla JS (except for list updates, those still require diffing).

Of course Solid's signal implementation is much more robust and have some very mild magic to make the UX better, but the core concept is really simple. Read about Solid's implementation here https://dev.to/ryansolid/building-a-reactive-library-from-sc...

Unpopular opinion: like most frameworks, things are moving far too fast to be beneficial. I've been in the development community since the mid-late 80s, and I've been a web developer since the early 2000s, yet I still cannot keep up with the latest and greatest from the technologies I work with, which change both one job to the next, as well as one project to the next in many cases.

Angular lost me going from 1-2, for example. Not because Angular 2 was bad, but because they decided they needed to do a fresh start. Vue2 -> Vue3 is almost the same story, though I stuck with that one. Rails? Oh boy...PHP? That is a damn nightmare. Tell me without looking at the docs what the best practices should be for even the most basic stuff.

If I have to rewrite large portions of my code for a new revision, even a major one, you are most certainly doing it wrong. If you want to rewrite the project, at least care to add a compatibility layer (which some projects have done, but most have not).
But how can you verify what you find?
In regards to LLMs there is a collision between Apple's extremely good chip design capabilities and Apple's insistence that Siri never says anything that isn't 100% scripted and 100% certain to not bad. Up until now, they've chosen to limit Siri functionality rather than leave anything to chance.

LLMs will absolutely be able to run locally, but whether Apple will be able to stop worrying and love the model remains to be seen.
Even before that they renamed the old ones to "PC Card" at some point

They're easily dismissed as such by anyone not really looking in depth at them.

How do you explain similar reports from kids with no preconditioning, and across different cultures. Numerous reports of information given from subjects that are corroborated by third parties that couldn't be guessed from an unconscious person. People blind from birth describing what they see in an NDE.

Can point you at some sources if interested.
Agreed. Apple is fantastic at waiting for the moment technology to be mature enough to be useful to everyday people and jumping on it. They have a fantastic CPU department that no one else can match, and certainly must have a skunkworks AI team. They’ll let everyone else make the mistakes, learn from them, and release a great product.
It's not about what government can do because it can literally do everything. If we are talking about USA it can literally end the world.

What's important is what the government can do cheaply, kinda quietly and without stepping on toes of the rich people. And in that book bitcoin is fairly safe so far.

The acronym etymology is presented as fact at the start of Daniel Suarez's novel Daemon, which claims the expansion is "disk and execution monitor". I always found that etymology suspect.
Cops don't protect the rights of the people, lawyers and judges do. Police have no duty to protect the public, their job is to enforce compliance with the law and protect the state's monopoly on violence.

And even if they did, they shouldn't get special kudos just for just doing their job. They get their paycheck and pension and all the free donuts and coffee they want, that's enough.
> a great majority of homeschoolers do so for religious reasons, e.g., ensure that they're not exposed to

> There are of course, people who do it to give their children an education that they feel is superior to the regular one

Another way to cut the cake:

- Some want to ensure high quality
- Others want to reduce bad influence

I fail to see why these motivations are much different whether religious or secular.

Kids will grow up and rebel, embrace, and take for granted parts of you they inherit.

I’m not Christian, but I’m willing to assume that the reason that Christians like to homeschool is because they care deeply about what kind of person their child becomes; homeschooling is a very conscientious move, like being a Christian. Secular homeschoolers are probably highly conscientious with a different set of norms.
Others siblings have good replies, but also, we regulate without physical danger all the damn time.

See airlines, traffic control, medical equipment, government services, but also we regulate ads, TV, financial services, crypto. I mean we regulate so many “tech” things for the benefit of society this is a losing argument to take. There’s plenty of room to argue the elsewhere but the idea that we don’t regulate tech if it’s not immediately a physical danger is crazy. Even global warming is a huge one, down to housing codes and cars etc. It’s a potential physical danger hundreds of years out, and we’re freaking out about it. Yet AI had the chance to really do much more damage within a much shorter time frame.

We also just regulate soft social stability things all over, be it nudity, noise, etc.

I had a coworker who made a sport of telling people things. Once he'd flipped the bozo bit on someone, he took a certain sardonic delight in predicting outcomes that they would promptly reject... and then face-plant directly into.

What are you talking about? IRBs have been around for 50 years. So 50 years of history we have been consciously not pursuing certain knowledge because of ethics.

It would really help for you to just say what timescale you're setting as your standard. I'm getting real, "My cutoff is actually 51 years"-energy.

Just accept that we have, as a society, decided not to pursue some knowledge because of the ethics. It's pretty simple.

This is one thing I despise about the American POlitical System - they are literally only thinking 1 year out, because they only care about elections and bribes and insider trading.

China has a literal 100 year plan - and they are working to achieve it.

I have listened to every single POTUS SoTU speach for the last 30 years. I have heard the same promises from every single one...

What should be done is to take all the SoTU transcripts over the years and find the same, unanswered empy promises and determine who said them, and which companies lobbied to stop the promises through campaign donations (bribes).

Serious, in 48 years, I have seen corruption expand, not diminish - it just gets more sophisticated (and insidious) -- just look at Pelosi's finances to see, and anyone who denies its is an idiot. She makes secret trades with the information that she gets in congress through her son.

Hey I am the first author of one of the "abstractions", so I guess my words would more or less reflect my personal daily experience dealing with those lovely kernels. Well, I don't have 100 engineers working for me, unfortunately :-(

Let's instead constructively talk about techniques in concrete items. If you look at OpenAI's Triton (which is also a small team of < 5 core contributors), what's this abstraction and their key to high performance? It's a tile-based programming model, where a tile could be conveniently lowered to vector instructions, coalesced memory access, and transformed to permuted layout. Its `dot` on tiles can be directly lowed to TensorCore-specific instructions. With those in design, without a huge team painfully maintaining the system, critical kernels like FlashAttention could be quickly developed within say 30 lines of code.
Cannot unsee the fact that this guy's name is basically stdout with some extra letters in it.

> The thing about "it has no goals and intents" is that it is contradictory with its purpose of successfully passing off as us: beings with goals and intents.

The thing about "it has no goals and intents" is that it's not true. It has them - you just don't know what they are.

Remember the Koan?

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him
as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.

"What are you doing?", asked Minsky.
"I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-tac-toe", Sussman replied.
"Why is the net wired randomly?", asked Minsky.
"I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play", Sussman said.

Minsky then shut his eyes.
"Why do you close your eyes?" Sussman asked his teacher.
"So that the room will be empty."
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I disagree, my problem with Catholic Schools is due to poor experience with the Jesuit ones I attended, they just were not staffing quality teachers (not surprising when they pay teachers $10k a year less than public schools) and each Archdiocese does things differently.

The Seattle Archdiocese has created a haven for spreading diseases unheard of in public schools by not encouraging or requiring vaccination of students. The other nearby archdiocese do not permit unvaccinated students to attend, and haven't had repeated outbreaks of once banished diseases.
Yeah, I'm pessimistic too, unless treatments and interventions get a lot better and someone knocks sense into our "leaders". But, interventions during the worst parts of the pendemic really did work. We just don't have the fortitude to keep them in place. I have been wanting to post a rant, though probably not to here. Good ventilation everywhere people gather would be a good start.

It may not be correct to _totally_ dismiss it, but as someone with professional experience in physics and neuroscience, I feel quite certain in all-but dismissing it. I'm basically sure that the brain is not meaningfully quantum mechanical and that conscious states correspond essentially entirely to physical states and that even if the brain were to have some essential quantum mechanical character, the second conclusion would not change.

The unusual characteristics of quantum mechanics do not give us epistemological carte blanche to believe whatever we like.
Thank you. Well said.

There is a huge difference between writing a program, and writing the program you want right now.

It's tricky to conceptualize because the entire narrative we are familiar with has personified GPT. It may be impressive, but GPT is completely different from humans.

If a human is capable of writing a program, that is because they understand conceptually how and why. GPT doesn't. GPT's ability to write a program is entirely dependent on the content of its training corpus: no how, no why, only what.

I'll put it another way: If a human is not able to write a program, it is because they don't understand conceptually how. If GPT is not able to write a program, it is because either the desired parts, or the necessary pattern that puts them together, does not exist in the training corpus; or because the prompt didn't yield a continuation that followed that arbitrary pattern.

The results are impressive because humans are impressive. GPT doesn't interact with the domain of all possible written text. It deals with the domain of all possible patterns of tokens from the text it was given. It's only given text that was intentionally written by humans. It exists in a world of signal: no noise. It can still only guess, but the guess will always be constructed out of the category of text humans choose to write.

Inference models are a completely different approach to language, and confusing them with human behavior is an easy way to make impossible predictions about what they can and cannot accomplish.

"We have a ton of protection laws around all sorts of dangerous technology, this is a super naive take. You can't buy tons of weapon technology, nuclear materials, aerosolized compounds, pesticides. These are all highly regulated and illegal pieces of technology for the better."

As technology advances, such prohibitions are going to become less and less effective.

Tech is constantly getting smaller, cheaper and easier for a random person or group of people to acquire, no matter what the laws say.

Add in the nearly infinite profit and power motive to get hold of strong AI and it'll almost impossible to stop, as governments, billionaires, and megacorps all over the world will see it as a massive competitive disadvantage not to have one.

Make laws against it in one place, your competitor in another part of the world without such laws or their effective enforcement will dominate you before long.
3D printing a rocket would be a lot more convincing if it hadn't taken Relativity ~7 years and billions of dollars to make it to a first launch attempt. They'll probably do alright, but that's much more capital and much longer than others (SpaceX, Rocket Lab, ABL)
I have some opinions about therapy being the art of asking people questions in order to trick them into telling themselves things that nobody else can tell them.

I've had more than a couple coworkers over the years who pull me into random decisions because they think I ask good questions. Part of me would rather be known for having good answers, but it's better than being discounted, and practically it may end up being more effective.

If it's a startup or a personal project with no special performance requirements, chance of me using protobufs for anything is very slim. Human readability aside, just bothering to set up the serdes and other boilerplate is too low on my list of priorities. Makes more sense at medium scale.
Note that a solution does not (and should not) solve every problem. That does not make it bad. Very few (read: NO) solutions can solve every problem.

I've known this forever, but when my company started doing outreach to customers, the point was really driven home.

Find a problem. Solve it. That is it. If the solution is popular enough it will pick up momentum. There will always be naysayers. It might not be the best solution, or even the right one, but it IS a solution, which is better than what others are doing.

Think something is bad? Fix it. Submit a PR if it is open source. Don't complain for the sake of complaining unless you are willing to show how it should be done.

Note that I'm not one of those open source jerk holes, however I do recognize that unless I can show I can do better, my opinions are meaningless.

My friend was doing this with mIRC scripts on our city's DALnet room in 2001. His bot hit up random users, asked a/s/l, and if they were female would text to speech "BabyGurl18 is female".

I mean does it mean it's accurate information? Could be a repurposed copy of some other document. Maybe they wanted it to be written by DV-3 and it didn't pan out, but they continued using the draft document anyway.

I know from personal experience that I've had draft documents that were WILDLY wrong before I published to anyone but myself. Whole sections I just went back and completely deleted. In fact my senior project paper (LaTeX) in college had a whole section with big ASCII bull taking a shit on a paragraph because it was some work I'd done that didn't pan out at all.

I feel like this just highlights the incompetence of executives and management at various levels more than anything else.

The only solution was to take an entire day from the CEO to figure out that the goals were unrealistic? Wasn't the very first clue that stores were generally unable to meet the expected attach rates?

It just highlights this dumb idea that executives are these ungodly force multipliers. I bet if anyone had bothered to ask the day-to-day labor about the proposed attach rates (and actually listened) they wouldn't have had to burn a day's worth of CEO compensation to figure out they weren't achievable.
The special thing is that current LLMs can invoke these kind of capabilities on their own, based on unclear, human-language input. What they can also do is produce plausibly-looking human-language input. Now, add a lot more memory and feed a LLM its own output as input and... it may start using those capabilities on its own, as if it was a thinking being.

I guess the mundane aspect of "specialness" is just that, before, you'd have to explicitly code a program to do weird stuff with APIs, which is a task complex enough that nobody really bothered. Now, LLMs seem on the verge of being able to self-program.
