> 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

Have we already solved AI safety problems? It seems like LLMs can now execute shell commands on our computers.
This is a pretty lazy narrative. Prices are rising even in non-branded goods and markets. Smaller retailers are not-undercutting the bigger retailers.

Couscous and margarine and eggs being more expensive across the board at the supplier level. This does not speak to any sort of cartel behavior.
This is exactly it. Companies will actually go quite into the red on particular products to avoid a price increase "before everyone else" if they can survive else wise.

There cannot be anyway Arizona Ice Tea is making the same profit today on their .99 cans that they were in 1992.

And at some point that has to break unless they become a charity subsidizing aluminum-clad tea.

When "the break" happens they almost always overshoot; it's easier to offer a 'discount' later if necessary.
It's both increased wholesale food costs and price gouging. Profits have never been higher all along the board. Everyone in the chain is "passing the cost on" and also taking a little extra cut.
What county audited the Adams County Sheriff? I've only seen Hamilton County and Adams County pop up in this story.

edit/ Oh, I see. It was Clermont County. Nope, not it. I don't want to place my younger self with pinpoint accuracy here but I grew up in southern/southeastern Ohio.
WASI is also used as an ABI for ProxyWASM so you can load whatever custom code you want into a proxy to handle request transformations and the likes that are too large or bespoke to fit into plain configuration files. Envoy does this using a C++ host that starts V8, but there are legacy implementations without V8, and alpha implementations that did it with newer WASM runtimes.
Are any countries other than maybe Ukraine engaging in total war? I'm not sure even Russia's mobilized to a degree that the term's applicable (though, maybe, in their case—but anyone other than the two principles in the war? Definitely not)

And Ukraine's hesitance/inability to strike war-relevant civilian targets in Russia (say, bridges and factories) more than very-sporadically makes the term a bit iffy even for them. Hell, even Russia's been more restrained than what the term usually suggests, as far as the brutality of attacks, if only barely.

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

It basically means "complete mobilization of a state & society toward a war effort, coupled with a willingness to engage any target regarded as having any war relevance whatsoever, no matter where or what the target is". Hallmarks are mass conscription, rationing, large-scale conversion of civilian production capacity to making war materiel, and leveling cities on purpose (not just as a side-effect of fighting over them).
In my mind there are broadly 2 types of conservatives, the rich self interest conservatives and the regular social issues conservatives. the rich have figured out a pretty efficient way of feeding the regular conservatives things that dont cost them money (like religion, guns, immigration, minorities etc) in exchange of things that make them money & power. it almost always boils down to that calculation. religion is easy way to keep masses in check and divert their attention on-demand.
I wonder if your offering would address a corner case: I have a Dell XPS 15 with a dedicated GPU. It's really obnoxious to allocate the dgpu to a vm and still use the igpu for video output, because the video output gets muxed through the igpu. Would the Framework let me use maybe a dummy plug on the dgpu and avoid muxing to make it easier to give the dgpu to a vm?
I've been leveling up since I started as a helpdesk rep at 18, becoming a Windows sysadmin, then a junior dev, and now a senior dev. College was not an option for me for reasons totally outside of my control, as my parents decided to not do their taxes for a number of years and I was unable to get any financial aid (grants or loans) whatsoever.

I scratched and clawed, read tons of books, blogs, spent extra time polishing features beyond what was needed so I could learn new skills... but now I am a father of two young kids, with a wife. How long am I supposed to put in all this extra work? I'm likely slightly above average intelligence, but I'm far from being at the level where I could be an AI researcher... if I am even capable of doing the kind of math required there, it would require many years of learning.

GPT4 isn't going to replace me, but watching this space unfold really has me worrying about the versions that come out over the next 2-5 years.

A human is only so moldable, and while I am more than happy to learn new skills, I have no idea where to even start. What profession is safe? Where will the growth be in a field that will have equivalent or even near equivalent earning potential?

If GPT ends up getting to the point where it can replace me at my job, I really have a hard time thinking of a career path I could get into at this stage in life. It would need to be able to architect systems at a high level, write code to implement various features, communicate with stakeholders, document design decisions... if it can do that, it can do a whole hell of a lot of other jobs too.

Once it gets to that point, I don't think physical jobs will be that far behind on being automated either. We already have robots of all shapes and sizes (including bipedal), the main thing slowing down their deployment is that they aren't adaptable enough. With AGI, that changes. It will take a bit longer due to the capital requirements and factory build outs that would be needed.

The inflation for these products came from the EU, the reason why prices for tomatoes went up is because Dutch farmers have been paying significantly higher energy costs (some supermarkets chose to hold no stock instead of paying these prices too).
Why can't you make couscous in the UK? It's just wheat.
My theory is this is a distraction tactic. These are real issues for real people, but Thiel feels that there are bigger issues that he can't make traction on with the Democratic party. So he funds outrageous candidates and they push culture war narratives and don't do anything other than rile up both bases. I am asserting that Trump was ineffective, his cabinet turnover was unprecedented, and maybe that's why Thiel lost interest the second time around. But Thiel feels that doing nothing by the Republicans is better than the something that Democrats do. He's just running interference for progress by the other party, progress which he feels is detrimental.
I think it's safe to assume anyone trying to criticize chatGPT who has access to gpt4 would specify that their attempts are using even the latest and greatest. The disclosure is in the interest of their core argument.

Therefore the inverse can be safely inferred by nondisclosure.

Hi all,

I'm co-founder of Promptly[1]. Using Promptly, you can build Generative AI apps without writing code.

I have built a demo app by adding PG's website. Please check it out.

Behind the scenes, Promptly uses OpenAI embeddings, Pinecone, and ChatGPT to enable Q&A.

The author seems to be projecting modern mores onto da Vinci, imagining him sneering at his subjects, including a bizarre swipe at Mona Lisa's "mannish" face. What I see is a scientifically-minded artist who was interested in the vast range that the human form could take, bucking the contemporary trend to focus on idealized beauty.

Reworked title, perhaps: The Fashion Industry is Still Not Ready for Leonardo DaVinci's Models.
A good highlight to an ambiguous question! Which knowledge, exactly, is not being made available?

But let's say that an MPG format specification is available. Even other code examples of interacting with an MPG file. But no examples, no library, no documentation on specifically how to extract a subset of one file into another file.

I would think a competent programmer could figure that out. Perhaps an AI tool could also; I have not yet seen an example of it doing so, but perhaps it could.

Of the handful of questions I asked, this might be the least interesting one. More generally, can AI tools advance the state of the art?
Of course she should have been expelled. (And her parents are real pieces of sh* for suing the school. They should be apologizing for their daughter who made the school unsafe.)

But the Police should have been involved too. This woman needed to have her viscousness memorialized and put on public record.
I also like jekyll. You can customize almost everything and tweak it to your needs with plugins. Although I'm not sure if github pages only allows some specific plugins or all of them...
People all too often conflate the two. What people commonly think of as "free speech" when referring to their 1st amendment right goes way beyond your actual legal rights to speech as delineated by that 1st amendment and centuries' worth of case law.
Unsurprising. Over 58 million US chickens have died of the H5N1 bird flu in the last year. Although it seems to have slowed down considerably in the last two months. Currently, South America is having a lot of problems with the same strain.
What I don't see mentioned is that IBM would not have to back port anything from the 5.15 tree if they just used an LTS kernel in the first place. But instead they like to differentiate(?) their product by using non-LTS kernels and handling all the back porting themselves, rather than collaborating with distros like Debian and Ubuntu which use the LTS kernels.
Can’t seem to find data to backup this observation, so leaning on anekdata instead - when traveling in EU, food prices seemed a lot lower than US. If this is true, an equivalent nominal increase would translate to a higher percent increase. For example, if the good costs $10 in US and $5 in UK, both see an increase of $1 (let’s say due to some shared factor like energy cost), then US would report 10% increase and UK 20%.
> you assume that the vast majority of people in china are outright unhappy with their government right now, I don't think that this is the case.

I'm not talking about right now.

> And trump is simply an idiot that only get enough votes somehow because both parties in the US are a joke to begin.

Trump literally had "a crowd of people at some point ... walk into the [government's] home and make [them] agree with handing over [power]." How did that go?
Jokes on them. I just eat less food now to compensate. That will show them.

There was a bug in ivi 2.0.0 with `shouldComponentUpdate` optimization, it was completely ignored. This benchmark submission rerenders and diffs everything on each change, all other `f(state) => UI` libraries in this benchmark are implemented with `shouldComponentUpdate` optimization. Also, unlike majority of libraries on the left side of the table, ivi doesn't use any type of event delegation(implicit or explicit) to get better results, just plain old `addEventListener()` is used internally to attach event listeners.
Elon tried to buy the company and become CEO and OpenAI said no. I also heard that they knew they were going to burn through the 100M, and were counting on the 1B he promised, and couldn't raise enough money as a non profit so that's why they went for profit.
CO2 data is hard to crowdsource because the sensors aren't yet built into phones, and tend to all be proprietary with no standard interface.

The CVEs are for CentOS Stream 9, not the RHEL derived CentOS 7 or Rocky/Alma 8/9. If the RHEL derived distributions were patched but not Stream it would seem that IBM-RedHat's promises about CentOS Stream being just as good are now provably false.

>> that the change in the weights as you train also have low intrinsic rank

It seems that the initial matrix of weights has a low rank approximation A and this implies that the difference E = W - A is small, also it seems that PCA fails when E is sparse because PCA is designed to be optimum when the error is gaussian.

Media narrative obviously. This looks like a story about the war’s effects on energy and resources. Better to redirect people’s anger so they they don’t lose their appetite for the proxy war.
> Are USB-A sockets so expensive?

I mean... objectively speaking here: yes.

They eat up a ridiculously large amount of physical space. Ports are cheap when space is cheap. Space is at a very high premium for laptops.

The port doesn't just magically disappear into the machine, it eats up that entire chunk of the laptop. Space which could be going to mainboard / speakers / hid / battery.

So modern laptops give you a very high bandwidth and low physical size bus (thunderbolt/usb-c) and a duplicate so you can charge at the same time and that's really all you need. Now I get the best laptop for the space the case takes up and the option to plug all that other stuff in is still there. The bus is plenty fast, you just need an adapter or dock.

I have a 4 usb-c port machine. I've never had all 4 ports in use at the same time. I have (just counting plugs on my hub) 9 usb devices and 2 4k monitors plugged into my machine. Switching them over from work to personal laptop is as simple as unplugging and replugging a usb-c cable. Feels fine to me.

Yeah. Terrifying.

The standard suite of open sourced Bazel rules are powerful enough for 99% of use cases. I have seen people argue this isn’t true, or that a rules package is fundamentally broken, but then learn that they are holding it wrong. And that holding it wrong reveals some glaring issues with how they setup their build system.

It’s not solely the user’s responsibility to hold it right. But Bazel is and has been developed in the “open source context” for long enough now that your argument doesn’t hold up imo.

It's hard to get a handle on any kind of objective reality. Headlines always catastrophise.

Anecdotally at least:

- Brexit is a pretty notable economic negative, purely in the sense that it's added a lot of drag to EU trade and made it harder for workers to access the UK market. Nobody likes loads of red tape. It's hard to separate this from the many other influences from COVID through to Ukraine.

- There has been a pretty clear spike in the cost of living, which has a direct impact on things like poverty. Notably the housing market was very disrupted by the policies of the previous prime minister; again, it's hard to separate this from anything else but anecdotally a very large number of people noticed that they suddenly had to find hundreds of pounds of extra money every month due to housing end energy costs.

- The NHS is not in a great state, no. Several years of underinvestment and the pandemic came home to roost, and combined with the pandemic and rather a lot burnout it is not sounding great from anyone who works there.

- The economy isn't in "free fall" but does have several things dragging at it – including supply-chain difficulties, inflation, worker shortages, and other challenges. It's hard out there.

- Most noticeable and in-your-face thing for someone like me—in the fortunate position of being on the breadline—is an obvious deterioration in services and availability. Lots of strikes in various industries, quality of everything suffering, difficulties getting basic goods sometimes. It can feel pretty oppressive, though of course nothing compared to how some people must be struggling to get by at all.
"Gaming" is a wider demographic to target and makes sense from a marketing standpoint. However, the people that benefit from the same level of hardware and would be interested in the mission and aesthetics of framework are creators. Video content, indie/hobby game dev, light modeling, design work etc. This is really the group that's going to get excited about a 16" laptop with more graphics horsepower. I know I am.
Counterpoint: ChatGPT will answer your question in a few moments whereas on StackOverflow, you might need up to 60 minutes for the question to be closed as "offtopic". ChatGPT never asks "why do you want to do this?"
> I have a hard time watching most modern films, it is the dialog, the dialog just sounds bad

I read somewhere that the problem is the trend of actors whispering their lines or talking under their breath for dramatic effect, and that the audio has to be heavily amplified to make it audible, but in that process, fidelity is lost and so the dialog is hard to understand.

I know I'm not the only person who watches movies and TV with subtitles on these days. Watching a movie at a theater is awful because the difficult to understand audio is made worse by being in a large room.

> (do people actually talk like this??).

No.

> Sarcasm is saying one thing and meaning the opposite.

What I find fascinating here is how generative AI has inverted all our sci-fi tropes. I mean, sure: you're right! That's the way "sarcasm" is defined in most dictionaries. But you and I both know that as the language is actually used, the term means a whole host of techniques used to convey negative emotional content in language that is not directly negative. Your (correct!) dictionary pedantry isn't interesting to me. We've been here before.

But GPT-4 wasn't trained on dictionary rules. It was trained on actual language. And it's actually better at inferring this stuff than the pedants are. Our introvert brains have trouble teasing meaning like this and have to hide behind rules and structure. The computer doesn't.

To wit: the robot is us.

I've seen it use non existent APIs a lot. Working on a project that uses a dialect of python it told me it knew (Starlark) was like pulling teeth. It would tell me to use a python feature Starlark didn't have, I'd ask it to rewrite it without using that specific feature and it would with another feature Starlark didn't have access to, so I'd ask it to write the solution using neither and it would just give me the first solution again.
The point was that just as Leonardo knew the key aspects of a figure to highlight for realism, Picasso used them for deconstruction. Picasso here, is not about symbolism, but about the interaction of the shape of objects with our experience of looking at it.

I updated my post, it does look like that's happening in the US market.
> Some of you reading this are going to huff and just disregard it, but for Thiel, preventing potential massive tragedy in the future is likely worth a tradeoff of some people being "harmed" now.

Let's say I agree with Thiel on this matter. We agree so much that I intend to drone strike Thiel.

Is this position good or bad? How does it differ from that of Thiel?
Brexit was 6 years or so ago. Then we had 3 years of trying to reverse it, then Covid, then Ukraine and, to top that, a Govt that decides fracking for gas is unacceptable and then goes and imports fracked gas from the US.

"they pretend to pay us, we pretend to work" is a failure because currently the prosperity of the society needs these people to actually work effectively.

On the other hand, the hypothetical solution of "own the machines and distribute the wealth" is intended for a future which is substantially different, where it doesn't matter if everyone pretends to work or even explicitly avoids working, because that work isn't necessary for prosperity as it can be done by machines, and it ceases to be a problem if everyone can be as lazy as they want.

Pretty sure it does. Pastafarians have been trying for over a decade now to get special treatment and it never works.
> For one, I have not seen GPT4 ever use non existent APIs.

Have you asked it to use any API that appeared after September 2021 (that's the cut off date for its data)?

Have you asked it to write code in less popular languages (e.g. Elixir)?

Have you asked it to write code for less popular or unavailable APIs (smart TV integrations)?
Well, there is a war going on. Those tend to make life more difficult all around.
Honestly for what you describe R might be quite comfortable. pandas was built to try and get R sensibilities into python, so you might as well drop the dependency and use the real deal all in one place.
