I just bought a second Roku. I have an old Samsung LED TV that doesn't have smart capabilities surprisingly. My first Roku is setup on a projector that also doesn't have "smart" functionality. At $39, I consider the device to be cheap. Plus it works far more reliably than the Google TV horseshit that is installed on my primary "smart" TV. It also comes with support for Jellyfin (streaming app for "home libraries"... aka pirated movies) I have no complaints so far.
Are they all available as tiles to be dragged and dropped? Or can I type it out too with a keyboard?
That’s like arguing against using locks on doors because they’re pickable.

You’re right: they can be defeated.

But they might cut it by 80-90%, and be complemented with other tools to reduce the flood to a trickle.
Hey! I would love to. I seriously considered adding my own key into the app, and implementing some rate limiting to e.g. allow you to send 3 messages for free. But unfortunately that would require me to store some backend data on you that I do not want: I want this to be a completely "private" / FE-only application that stores no data on anyone.
>I think it's pretty clear he has no idea how contracts work

Is this really a good assumption for a guy who has started so many successful companies?
Thank you for the amazing work you and the Scratch Team do. I want to second the comment that Scratch works. I'm 16 years old and I discovered Scratch when I was 7. Soon I will be starting my professional career (hopefully something in computer science/engineering/cybersecurity), and it's all thanks to Scratch and the amazing community you have fostered. I don't think I would have ever even considered computers as something interesting to me unless I discovered Scratch.

Thank you.
Wow! Is it really that cheap? GPT4 is much more expensive, I imagine?
This is no longer true. We're in a post-copilot world now where GitHub is the star of the show for the entire corporation.
The Phillips bulbs I bought have a ridiculously high failure rate. About half have failed within 6 months. Much worse than the supermarket own brands, or cheaper ones from Amazon.
Which? magazine is an equivalent in Britain.

(Both will be irrelevant for Americans, I have never noticed a multi-voltage bulb.)
Where do I look, the paper was from 2021 before llama but did they update it (or you mean the llama paper mentions that benchmark)?
Why not force all people to wear such devices when they have unapproved thoughts?
Without taking a stance on whether it's right, I believe that is explained right after your quote cut-off.
There are YouTube channels dedicated to repairing non-functional LED bulbs. In every case the issue is usually that one of n leds has failed, and if you solder a bypass then the remaining leds work fine. After that the only real problem is that all the adhesives used in the construction of the bulb more or less require that you destroy the bulb in order to get to the point you can repair or bypass the one LED.
The video is pretty slick, however i can't help but be reminded of the other story that hit the HN frontpage earlier today: "The age of average"
https://www.alexmurrell.co.uk/articles/the-age-of-average

These designs are not new and exciting, quite the opposite.

I'm happy to be proven wrong!
Yah, seeing that is a signal from others personal experience that you’re now entering into non-formulaic territory and need to put on the appropriate hat.

I forgot to mention.... I asked the same question to ChatGPT. Here goes the answer:

Q: Can you think of a sci-fi novel that feels like ChatGPT now?

A: One sci-fi novel that comes to mind is "Blindsight" by Peter Watts. The novel explores the idea of consciousness and artificial intelligence, and the protagonist is a genetically modified human who has been wired to communicate with machines. The novel delves into the concept of the mind as a kind of information processing system, and the limitations of human understanding in a universe that may be fundamentally alien to us. The themes of consciousness, communication, and the limitations of human understanding are all relevant to the way ChatGPT functions and operates.
what is the difference?

though I do feel like i see this a lot with these kinds of "we re-wrote it in rust and everything is fast". comparing to a language with gc options often the scenario

on one hand, i feel like you should just learn how to use your stuff properly. on the other hand it is interesting to see that people who can't write fast code or use libraries properly are actually writing fast code. like fast code for the masses almost hah. though maybe theyll just run into the same issue when they misuse a library in rust
One use everyone here seems to ignore is that git has become a collaboration tool outside its immediate uses as a software development workflow. For people like me who don't need all the advanced uses but simply want to be able to version control some files, this simplified interface is excellent. Thank you.
Judging by rush hour traffic, tech is something of a bubble. As far as I can tell, commuting traffic is back to pre-pandemic levels as far as I can tell.
I mean you're a platform company in 2023 and you don't want an API? Idk that sounds like competence to me in failing to appreciate its value. Sure, I appreciate it follows a strategy but I worry that the strategy will not help twitter in the long term.
My last company did them monthly I think. They were optional and I stopped attending them after a while because I had other things to do with the time. They felt more like a webinar talking about general news in the company, high level strategy, etc.

Then I ended up getting laid off abruptly, or so, I thought. Most people seemed to get blindsided by it, but a few people I spoke to who were heavily involved in the all-hands said that while nothing explicitly looked bad, there had been some ominous signs in the past few.
Hey, run locally in this case means: YakGPT has no backend. Whether you use the react app through https://yakgpt.vercel.app/ or run it on your own machine, I store none of your data. I will try and make this wording clearer!

I think you need to brush up on your reproductive knowledge.
What happened to CFL bulbs? I was very happy with mine, but they have rapidly disappeared from shelves.
The AI doesn't have to be 100% self reliant. It might just do the dirty work while the humans in the background support it in an abstracted form, making it easier for them to lie to themselves about what they are doing.

When your job is to repair and maintain infantry drones, how do you know if it's civilian or combatant blood that you are cleaning from the shell? You never leave the camp because doing so is too dangerous and you also don't know the language anyways. Sure the enemy spreads propaganda that the drones are killing babies but those are most likely just lies...

Or when you are a rocket engineer, there is little difference between your globe spanning satellite network transmitting the position of a hypersonic missile headed for your homeland, or remote controlling a network of drones.

AI gives you a more specialized economy. Instead of every soldier needing to know how to maintain their gun you now have one person responsible for physical maintenance, one person responsible for maintaining the satellite kubernetes network, one UI designer, and one lunatic typing in war crime commands. Everyone in the chain is oblivious of the war crime except for that one person at the end.
Trying to cram all the infrastructure for an LED lamp into the shape of a light bulb is a bad idea, even if the input power is DC. Good designs for LED lighting have larger surface areas for heat dissipation and some physical/thermal separation between the LEDs and the power supply. A quality power supply does not produce flicker. As other comments have noted, dimming, or even predictable output requires some sort of power regulation even with DC input.

I think the way to change it is to replace sockets with hardwired LED fixtures. This is easy for something like a standalone ceiling light. It may be harder for other devices like ceiling fans that integrate a light bulb socket, but converting those devices to take DC power as in your proposal isn't easy either (most would just get discarded and replaced).

Doing it well is more expensive in the short-term than screw-in bulbs. A quick look on Amazon suggests integrated ceiling lights are about 10x the price of LED bulbs, though I suspect the longer service life pays for itself.
That works really well! Tried it on a cheap LED that I notice the flicker on some times and it really showed up. Also tried an expensive one that I don’t notice any flicker from and there was a very fast flicker on slow mo. Tried daylight as a control and there’s no flicker.

Would this apply to applications that don't have web pages as well?
I notice for example the application that the Windows Defender ATP network scan agent application that is automatically created is set to 'AzureADandPersonalMicrosoftAccount' for signInAudience for example, but I'm not sure if you could access it using the Object ID somehow through the Graph or something.
Within gated communities, maybe.
I think you're getting to the heart of what a smart approach to regulation would look like (for me at least). Try as I might, I can't imagine a situation where someone is able to subvert an LLM to come up with a world-ending scenario using its knowledge of onion-based recipes or by painting fingernails. There is no point to regulating every single potential use of an AI: to do so is to cede the future to a less scrupulous nation. We already know the kind of data and functionality that will likely lead to a dystopian hellscape because we already do those things and they are already regulated.

Paradoxically, a heavy-handed approach to regulation could guarantee a bleak future for humanity. We risk increasing the incentives for malicious use at the same time as we make legitimate use prohibitively expensive / regulated out of existance. If the war and crime machine is cheap and easy to monetize, don't be surprised when that's what gets built.

The future could be unimaginably better for everyone, but we won't realize that future unless we get the regulation right.
Genuine question: why? I only have one, and I wonder if I'm missing something.
Best case there is to never buy again, name and shame the specific model places like this discussion, and use the warranty!

You seem to be willfully misunderstanding science. "Implicate" is a political word, not a scientific one. @giraffe_lady has hit the nail on the head here.
The plan doesn’t make much sense because the free tier is write-only. Bots can post 1,500 Tweets per API token per month, but free users can no longer make simple read-only queries about Tweets or users.

This means the free API is only useful for people who want to post Tweets automatically (e.g. bots) and not people who just want read-only access and do not contribute to spam. These users will now have to resort to web scraping, which is much more expensive for Twitter to serve than basic JSON API responses.
uh, multiple human scientists have individually or in small groups done what I described (I believe we call them "nobel prize winners").

And anyway, the point of my desire is to demonstrate something absolutely convincing, rather than "can spew textual crap at the level of a high school student".
It's probably the first time I see a tumblr post on HN.

Meanwhile, technological power has instead gone to the megacorporations, which have amassed enough of it that they now rival governments in reach and strength. Citizens attempt to use technology to check their power, but are routinely thwarted by the fact that the corporations have technology at least as good, as well as better funding and large numbers of warm bodies willing to do their bidding—either under threat of losing their livelihoods, or because they enjoy the exercise of power themselves.

I agree with your conclusion (it's unhelpful to have an overall pessimistic view of technology), but changing which pessimists you listen to does make a difference. In this case, rather than listening to the pessimism of George Orwell, we apparently should have been listening to Neal Stephenson and William Gibson, because the broad strokes of what we have now are very similar to aspects of the cyberpunk dystopia that their works and those that followed them described.
As much as I think VC is problematic: Those folks have a host of previous experience. When they share advice with you, it's a distillate of seeing lots of companies go through similar things.

And that's all any advice is - "based on what I've experienced before, here's what I see". You never should take advice unevaluated, but it's additional data that might help you to come to a better decision.

If that additional data is worth enough to you is a separate question, but there's certainly value there.
I haven't heard much about ChatGPT and plugins. Is it meh or too good?
Right. And what even is the penalty of that TOS violation and how enforceable is it?

I don't have an OpenAI account. I have never agreed to any TOS. I don't see what legal claim they would have to stop me from training an LLM on ShareGPT.
Unreal delusion and/or out of touch.

"You are commuters. For the day, week, year, or decade, you are bonded by a common struggle. That brings you closer. That makes you better colleagues. That alloys you in social contract."

You'll suffer, but you'll all suffer together, so that's good.
It looks like the transition hit about 30 years ago, with a big drop from 50 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Japan#/media/F...
Awesome! And you probably learn the GIT commands in the meantime. Good job sharing too!
That's a fair criticism. I have the same problem when my kids are home and not at school. Are you able to focus in the office? I feel like most offices are very similar to being at home with small kids in terms of noise levels and interruptions.
1) was a problem in the early days, but what they poured into clang did eventually pay off. It's a reasonable compiler with tons of vendor extensions, many being Apple's, these days. Clang also served as a source for GCC to take new features from. Good to have some competition.

2) XQuartz took a while, but is doing well.

3) was a big one in making upstream wine not work. with wine32on64 you can sure still pull the pinball party trick, but building that thing takes too much.

4) was specifically SIP for me, especially when they started making updates break with system changes. The ntfs-3g automount thing has always relied on replacing mount_ntfs [which is, by the way, not the proper way to make an fs on a Mac -- there's some filesystem bundle business], and now it's too much of a pain to still access the Windows drive.
There are organisms with almost no introns, no redundancy, no CRC, no "metadata" and even overlapping genes to save space, like Giardia genome ( https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1143837 ). Lots of virus have all their genes encoded without introns, and almost all the genome is encoding something.

I've never seen DNA as close to a filesystem, and our current best bet on introns functions are they are used to create alternative splicing products from the same DNA chunk. I cannot identify this function in a filesystem, where you can obtain two or three different valid files from the same data just by skipping some blocks.
It could degrade the model in a way that avoids the metrics they use for gauging quality.

The distortions that showed up in ESRGAN (for instance) didnt seem to effect the SSIM or anything (and in fact it was training with MS SSIM loss), but the "noise splotches" and "swirlies" as I call them were noticable in some of the output, but you have to go back and look really hard at the initial dataset to spot what it was picking up. Sometimes, even after cleaning, it felt like what it was picking up on was completely invisible.

TLDR Google may not even notice the inbreeding until its already a large issue, and they may be reluctant to scrap so much work on the model.
Love the idea of prompt dictation. Taking that idea a step further, would it possible to have a feature where ChatGPT responses are spoken back to the user?
FT: A difficult pivot looms for venture capital
It is still vaporware. One potent delay tactic is to arrange a splashy prerelease, and then drag feet to production. But delay tactics only work for ideas that aren't strongly seated yet; if he keeps coming back to it, delay will eventually fail. That's how you get bad movie and terrible ideas on store shelves. He is the boss after all.
I fucking hate LEDs. Turned my back on them years ago because the tech and its salesmen turned their back on me. Nothing but lies.

I've been using 15-25 watt traditional incandescents in a bunch of lamps around the house and they're absolutely amazing. Consistent light, cheap, and comfy as hell - the warm fire-like glow appeals to my caveman sensibilities. So much better than soulless, flickering, sun-bright but ice-cold LEDs. I feel better, see better, sleep better, my house is just so cozy.

Thankfully, the low-watt appliance bulbs that I use seem to be exempt under the coming ban. And if they were banned, I'd find a way to make them on my own - I'm never parting with them.
It reminds me a bit of Yudlowsky's Moore's Law of Mad Science: "Every 18 months, the minimum IQ necessary to destroy the world drops by one point", but applied to money - building bombs and missiles is hard and expensive. Using AI APIs to wage enormous campaigns of disinformation and harassment isn't.

The Great Lightbulb Conspiracy https://spectrum.ieee.org/the-great-lightbulb-conspiracy

> On 23 December 1924, a group of leading international businessmen gathered in Geneva for a meeting that would alter the world for decades to come. Present were top representatives from all the major lightbulb manufacturers, including Germany’s Osram, the Netherlands’ Philips, France’s Compagnie des Lampes, and the United States’ General Electric. As revelers hung Christmas lights elsewhere in the city, the group founded the Phoebus cartel, a supervisory body that would carve up the worldwide incandescent lightbulb market, with each national and regional zone assigned its own manufacturers and production quotas. It was the first cartel in history to enjoy a truly global reach.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoebus_cartel
I work at such a firm with constantly changing legislative and organizational requirements, and while there is definitely a lot of moving target syndrome around business processing logic that this applies to, there are other things like a byzantine service architecture leading to people having to make web service calls rather than join across tables, a house of cards docker/kong setup that people are afraid to update because it's so difficult to debug, unit tests that take 10 minutes to run even in limited cases because of the poorly written migrations and other unrelated bad architecture/engineering choices. Those things could all be fixed with a very reasonable amount of effort for the productivity boost they'd give, but the technical leadership in the teams that owns those things is not super competent, so they're afraid to make any significant changes because they're not confident in their ability to solve problems that might arise as a result.
Studying the physics of the sun is highly useful in understanding lightbulbs, and visa versa. It's not just a surface analogy but a deep physical commonality in which discoveries about one not infrequently informs both. The same is true of the study of replicators across domains that look very different on the surface.
The world hates that the US is the world police, but then constantly demands the US be the world police.
S22, solo founder, open-source infra + internal tools (windmill.dev).

As the other ones in this thread have mentionned, YC is what you make out of it. For the fundraising alone, it allowed me to raise - a non US solo founder - at very comfortable terms and on the financial aspect alone it would have been worth it. But most importantly, the hardest part to start a company in my opinion is to keep being motivated.

I was under the impression that surely a successful startup wouldn't have to go to any struggle and that founders were a special - genius-like - kind of breed. Being in YC opened my eyes:

- everyone struggle, relax and keep working

- the great people of this world are smart, but not crazy smart. They are crazy pragmatic, and crazy motivated, which you can be TOO

- YC founders are nice people, and they make for great friends to keep. Those people are the only one that will understand truly what you're going through.

YC was a transformational experience for me and I would recommend it to all.

EDIT: To give a more balanced view, YC was also stressful, and the expectations were the same, solo founder or not. Be prepared for an intense ride.
GPT-4 is decently more expensive -- I personally really like & use the therapist character a lot. In this scenario the session would cost me less than $1 which is still much cheaper than any therapist I've used previously :)

> We have no reason to believe that eating rotten meat wasn't a choice made out of necessity rather than out of some sort of optimal health.

First, basically every choice could be said to be made out of some kind of necessity.

There's a big middle ground even from this. E.g. "eating rotten meat caused a lot of harms, but it also happened to fulfill a couple of somewhat important functions, and thus there was no evolutionary pressure to meet these requirements in any other way"

Thus, even if eating rotten meat today would be a net negative for many, many reasons (and I strongly suspect this is the case), it makes a lot of sense to think about and study what possible benefits it could have had besides merely being available.
Calling it "fanciful" is a prime example of the greatest shortcoming of the human race being our inability to understand the exponential function.

In any case, the open letter addresses both types of risk. The insistence by many people that society somehow can't think about more than one thing at a time has never made sense to me.
No. You can ask me for legal advice, but since I haven't been admitted to the bar, it will not be privileged.

(In any case, I'd refuse to answer, since that would be "practicing law without a license.")
