Very sure. I started noticing the issue a couple of years ago (well before Musk's arrival) because I'd find myself thinking 'I haven't seen anything from ____ in a while, I should follow that person', only to discover that I was already following them and their tweets were just not showing up. New follows will generally pop up reliably, but if someone has fallen out of your regular feed you have to work to put them back into it.

Just now (as I am writing this comment) went to check on someone I saw an interview with the other day, and sure enough I am still following the person and they have been tweeting a few times a day, but I haven't been seeing any of it.

Other weird things are Twitter's habit of just preemptively muting people (I'll sometimes wonder why a person didn't reply and go back to reread a conversation, only to discover that they did reply; and conversely, people that I have muted or blocked showing up in my search results for a trending topic. Most of the people I manually mute are 'influencers' who use software, staff, or pure obsession to get in the first reply to politicians and the like, a behavior I find insufferably annoying even if I agree with their position.

I'm very interested in politics, but almost all my mutes/blocks are people of somewhat-similar political persuasion that Twitter assumes I would want to see, and insists on showing me despite my best efforts. I want to keep tabs on the arguments of people I strenuously disagree with, because I already know my own opinions and don't need validation. It's easier in some respects to maintain a second account with an uber-conservative persona and let the recommendation engine just feed it with more of the same.
I think there just isn't enough mathematical data. English language data is magnitudes more and longer then mathematical data so there is a correlation here.

The more data the better the LLM can formulate a realistic model. If it has less data then the resulting output is more of a statistical guess.

There is an argument that can be made here that the more data the more things chatgpt can copy and regurgitate but given how vast the solution space is I think data at best covers less then 1 percent.

Basically I think that if your data covers say 2 percent of the solution space you can generate a better model then if the data covered 1 percent.
Yes, it is not trivial, but some color space can help, see my article about it. https://www.kuon.ch/post/2020-03-08-hsluv/

Short of north-korea type enforcement or rich western european attitudes toward complaince with the law (fat fucking chance of that considering who becomes truckers) the problem is probably gonna persist.
There is a more "pure" GPT-4 model, and they're considering giving access to it. It's just not as useful to humans. Sam Altman talks about it briefly in the recent interview on the Lex Fridman podcast.
In most of my cases, they're just blocking the DNS.
The ones that can't use the GPT4 for whatever reason. Maybe you are a company and you don't want to send OpenAI your prompts. Or a person who has very private prompts and feel sketchy about sending them over.

Or maybe you are an individual who has a use case that's too edgy for OpenAI or a silicon valley corporate image. When Replika shut down people trying to have virtual boyfriend/girlfriends on their platform, their reddit filled up with people who mourned like they just lost a partner.

I think it's important that alternative non-big bux company options exist, even if most people don't want to or need to use them.
Or one individual over the rest of the world?
See our separate comment on SSO through Okta, this is actually available out of the box through login with Datadog and we've corrected the pricing page. Thanks again for the pointer.

We'd like to keep CoScreen affordable for those teams and are planning to factor it into the pricing model once we put one in place. Drop me a mail if you have specific requirements (till@coscreen.co).

So you imagine these tags are set by looking account names up on state voter registration lists?
Price-conscious consumers will absolutely take a good deal but build no brand loyalty. They'll hop from sale to sale. Businesses live and die by customer acquisition costs. You're better off offering deals to customers who've already demonstrated a willingness to pay near-MSRP regularly, and offer deals if they start dropping off, to get them buying again.

Groupon just proved, at a larger scale, what was always present in consumer behavior. Of course it wasn't going to be sustainable just like click-through rates for ads dropped off once people got used to their placement at a particular location in the search results. In this case, Groupon capitalized on small-business owners who had a poor grasp of how consumers work.
I don't dispute your broader point about humans and novel risk, I dispute that COVID is a valid example of this.

In fact, I rather think we didn't react swiftly or strongly enough.

Masks, in particular, should have been mandated (at specific levels of quality, such as N95 or, failing that, KN95) and distributed by the state. https://www.twincities.com/2023/03/16/zeynep-tufekci-why-the...

There was an era wherein liberals were reliably less science-based. For example, the absurd fuss over GMO foods, or nuclear power.

These days, for whatever reason, it feels like our conservative colleagues are the ones who favour gut instincts over evidence-based reasoning.

I hope this trend reverses, I've missed having a stimulating intellectual adversary.
I would argue that technically no, you have not lost money. It is a theoretical risk of loss until you are actually forced to withdraw early. The realization of the loss is contingent on an event that has not come to pass.

- Include 'who viewed my profile' option in twitter

- Only one commit on repo

- How do I use it?

- allow "AI" to tweet and like tweets on your behalf

- IMPORTANT: Guys please keep this place for real bugs and contributions,

Is the "following" tab an option for you? Or what would you like the "for you" tab to do? Filter out heavy tweeters? Prioritize more popular tweets?
Why? Sending stuff into space isn't something I want an incompetent company doing. You can do a lot of damage in a lot of ways.
Big fans! Jitsi powers a large part of our backend.
No. Especially compared to known alternatives, very much including crypto.

Or then we have a very different definition of "complete mess". For the record, I have no reason to doubt the value of my savings account fluctuates wildly and the savings account is guaranteed by government for my practical purposes. I can make all the payments I need to make free/with very modest fee. In most cases, for practical purposes, the payments are immediate. If I happen to need, I can borrow money against my non-money non liquid assets. I can't describe this situation as "a complete mess". To my understanding crypto offers practically none of these benefits in any kind of robust way. This from european perspective.
Part of that package is flawless CarPlay integration.
It’s simplified the music and navigation experience
more than I ever thought possible.

Yes. CarPlay and Android Auto support is absolute table stakes for me to even consider a vehicle.

Personally I don't use Android and could live without it if needed, but I have friends who do and it's nice for them to be able to plug their phones in and navigate or DJ when in my car.

People don't want another device to manage. They want their auto to be a display device for their mobile device, with which they are already infinitely familiar.
So what’s the DC of the check to get the guard to agree? Is it hard because that’s a baseline very dumb request? Or is it exceptionally easy because all of the facts from v3 are true?

Putting together basic facts does not require you to be a charismatic person. The problem with relying on checks is you create situations where NPCs behave according to the Charisma stat of the PC they’re interacting with rather than the context of the conversation. Which is dumb. NPCs should not act against their own interest because they’re talking to someone who is not charismatic. And it should be exceptionally hard to get people to act clearly against their own interest.

This also creates a bad habit where DMs make people roll for trivial skill checks where they have a 95% chance of succeeding and a 5% chance of a fun but dumb exaggerated failure. It also encourages the non RAW interpretation where players roll HUGE numbers on trivial tasks and DM think that means they’re supposed to succeed by wider margins.
History is littered with great software that died because no-one used it because the business model was terrible. Capturing $1B of value is better than 0, and everyone understands this. And who cares what history thinks anyway?

OpenAI has spent a lot of money to get their result.
It's safe to assume it will take a lot of money to get a similar result, and then to share it (although I assume bit torrent will be good enough). Once people are running their models, they can innovate to their hearts content. It's not clear how or why they'd give money back to the enabling technology. So how does money flow back to the innovators in proportion to the value produced, if not a SaaS?
Quite right. I initially thought of someone who edits things in production as an idiot. But it could be someone who doesn't know any better, or whose management has them to do unwise things.

We normal, fallible humans still benefit a lot from using good methods that take human error out of the equation.
>Ironically, if he'd just paid it directly from campaign funds and given it an obfuscated name ("PR Services"), he'd be in much less legal trouble now.

No, he would have probably instead be indicted for using campaign funds to pay a mistress under the theory that such a payment is not a valid campaign expense. The rules are so unclear that you could prosecute him either way.
There’s also at least BQN, which I suspect is the language used in those comments:

Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but if you're serious, I'm pretty sure the OP is talking metaphorically. It's just a slight annoyance he's not "emotional" about it.

I also fail to see how someone who is annoyed by code that doesn't follow well established standards is somehow not a good fit in the C-suite.
You should be terrified, then, that humans walk among you.
I wonder if it will be possible in one day to know what is values of `author_is_power_user`, `author_is_democrat` and `author_is_republican` for your account. Does GDPR help with that? probably not because maybe they do it for people inside the us only so it is not related to EU anyway.
> There's a lot of confusion. They are moving to Google Automotive Services, complete with Android and the Play store where you pick what is on your car.

Thanks. That clarifies, considering the article gives the impression this would be a GM-siloed system built in collaboration with Google.

The problems remain mostly the same, and the notion of GM de-facto crowning Google and its Android-based solution the "one true solution" feels like something that will isolate iPhone users.

There's a big difference between being able to use Apple Music because it's an app offered on the Google Auto Services version of the Play Store, and the general-purpose solution of being able to use it because Apple Music supports CarPlay and your car supports CarPlay.

There are other potential issues that I don't know the answer to without a bit more research. What about multiple users? The beauty of the Android Auto / CarPlay model was that my friend could hop into my car, plug in his phone, and immediately get access to his Spotify app, already on his phone, with his stuff. And just as quickly as he does that, he can unplug and let my paired phone take over again.

It's really a beautiful design in its simplicity for the end user - no installing apps, no signing in to an account on "yet another device", if it's on your phone, and it supports CarPlay, then you get it in your car.

Not only does it sound like this replaces that for iPhone users, it ALSO sounds like some of these problems will exist equally for Android Auto users, as once again you are moving the environment of apps and services from the individual user's phone, into the car.

Edit:

Doing a bit more research on Google Automotive Services specifically, I found this in an article [1]:

> Android Automotive is also responsible for every interaction with your car's in-dash display. [...] Even iOS users will launch CarPlay through Automotive, a humorous convergence of the two platforms.

If this applies, then it sounds like CarPlay could indeed be an option, by way of an app downloaded from the Play Store. If so, this mitigates a healthy number of my issues. However, if so, then why the article declaring CarPlay is going away in GM if it isn't?

Just very poor article writing? Lack of knowledge amongst the people interviewed at this stage?

Also, next from the article is this:

> GAS (yes, the acronym is almost certainly on purpose) is all of your favorite Google system applications rolled into one package. As an end-user, you'll never interact with GAS by its chosen name. Instead, you'll see the benefits of this system, specifically if you purchase a car from one of Google's partners.

> Considering how many drivers, especially in the U.S., rely on iOS and CarPlay to get from place to place, it makes sense that some automakers (especially smaller companies) might pass on adopting these services.

So... what does this mean? CarPlay and GAS are mutually exclusive? Can individual auto makers determine which apps are available in the Play Store?

I'm left with about as many questions as have been answered.

Makes you wonder how they would deal with a reduction in Twitter users.
I don't get your comment, even after reading about significant figures.

that was much more gradual and did not affect everyday life at all. Even today most people don't know/care about the implications of relativity :)
The NHS needed a chunk of money put into it during COVID and afterwards, but so much was taken by "track and trace" and overt fraud (Michelle Mone etc) that it's struggling with budget and staff. The "£350m a week for the NHS" promised at Brexit never really arrived.
I think it makes sense for out-of-network. However I see no value for boosting among people that I have followed. If I have followed them they definitely aren't spammers (from my PoV).
Some heat pumps use underground pipes (and those units have a great advantage in avoiding the efficiency loss due to extreme temperatures), however they're much more expensive to install, so the vast majority of heat pumps are air-based, same as any traditional air conditioner you've ever used.

As for whether ground-based heat pumps would cool the Earth's crust, the answer is no (in any measurable sense). Consider that heat pumps are used for both heating in winter and cooling in summer, so in a temperate climate you're just as likely to put as much heat into the ground (in summertime) as you extract from the ground (in wintertime).
+1 for Crutchfield - have had nothing but good experiences with them for instructions and support
This is so hilarious that I'm having trouble laughing at it. I can't even describe how funny this is. I love 2023. It's giving science fiction authors a hard time trying to keep up with the absurdity.
Sounds good, let us know what you think!
Yes, I'm joking. I also feel hurt by 2 space indents.
Is with_recursive nearly as performant as dedicated graph database query languages?
I agree that parallelization is often a good way to speed up your CI pipeline, but the OP's suggestion of shifting integration tests to unit tests is frequently the worst thing you can do because it very often changes a test that tests into a test that is just a pale imitation of the code under test - a mimetic test.

I worked on a big old ball of mud once where business logic was smeared across 6 or 7 different microservices. The ONLY way to gain confidence that the app did the right thing was to test it end to end which, of course, took ages, and meant hours long CI pipeline (longer if not parallelized).

My coworker tried to replace some of those tests with "faster" unit tests around bits of those microservices but all they did was "lock down" the horrible architecture such that it became impossible to refactor and consolidate the business logic without breaking a bunch of unit tests.
And then there is the rest of the world.
Still doesn't clarify the relation to the topic.
The guy literally slaps himself a "Senior Machine Learning Engineer" title 9 months after getting a master's degree :))
Guess he could use ChatGPT for his resume.
I think I'll pick a 2023 that doesn't have that problem, starting with the fact that it doesn't have an ignition key. :-) But thanks for the heads-up.
Yes, I know, but this is presently not available via the API. What OP here means is that someone's talking about 3.5 without having tried something with 4, while accidentally misleading people into thinking that there's a special 4 distinct from the 4 available on ChatGPT that can do more. This is not the case. If you've used 4 via GPT, there's not a different version somehow - that we know about! - that is more capable or useful. If your interactions with 4 were via the ChatGPT frontend, you don't need to revisit your opinions now.
I feel you. I've had the same thing happen except it was dawn on I95 in one of the Carolinas. Scared the crap out of me and like you, stopped at the next rest stop for a nap.

JetBrains was founded in Prague. I suspect most people on hacker news are familiar with them.
Yeah that sort of presumption of guilt doesn't fly in the US unless there's a huge moral panic. You might be able to screw a small industry into having laws like that with just a small moral panic. But trucking is to big, you'd need a big one.
I downvoted you for your overconfidence. Your conclusion might be right, but it's not as straightforward as you suggest. You're right that the transmission losses aren't large, but you seem to be missing the much bigger losses involved in generating electricity from coal.

Currently, the average coal fired plant produces electricity at 33% efficiency: https://www.energy.gov/fecm/transformative-power-systems. That's average, so there are probably plants out there producing at 30%. If we assume another 5% loss for transmission, this takes us down to 25% efficiency as delivered to the consumer.

If a heat pump is 3x the efficiency of resistance electric heat, but you are burning 4x the coal to generate the electricity, are you still certain that a 95% natural gas furnace is never the better choice for efficiency? I'm not. I think the heat pump is probably more efficient in many cases, but I wouldn't eliminate the possibility that there are cases where the natural gas wins.

Although I would agree with you if they had titled it "alignment", they chose "responsible", which is much easier: https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/internet-health/trustworth...

(Linked from the text "How does it address our Responsible AI Guidelines", I appreciate the irony of me having said this given the destination of the link has yet another title).
That’s very surprising to me. My intuition screams that surely a binary search is competitive with a linear search even at small sizes. I would love to see benchmarks and code for this if you have them handy.

No, that's very different.
> It's very nihilistic and depressing.

Indeed. The common reactions here to people who are scared of what LLMs might bring have gone far to increase my worries. An extreme lack of empathy and even expressions of outright contempt for people is very common from those who are enthusiastic about this technology.

Instead of scorn, anger, and mocking, people who think that LLMs are a great thing should be working on actually presenting arguments that would reassure those who think the opposite.
Space bloat.
It doesn’t mention any specific charges or the evidence to support them.

This is one of the first paragraphs from your link!

“ The indictment has been filed under seal and will be announced in the coming days. The charges are not publicly known at this time, one source told CNN.”
I think people just expect Star Trek TNG’s ship computer or Data.

To some extend, LLMs have some of the properties ascribed to those fictional AIs like the ability to access a wide amount of knowledge.

They lack the precise rigorous thinking that those fictional AIs have though - LLMs even hallucinate.

Those fictional AIs are what people want because they perfectly complement our weaknesses - our tendency to forget stuff and our tendency to occasionally screw up reasoning; those fictional AIs act as a “safety net”.

At the moment many more limited “dumb” tools like a regular search engine algorithm or your handheld calculator does a better job of being a “safety net” went it comes to specific things.
I should have been more clear. I mean like original works by CRT scholars that do this. Something with a DOI would be great.
Humanness in the Age of AI
It’s worth looking at why the UK (and Germany and Japan) were able to provide these services at a reasonable cost while the US can’t.

All of those countries rebuilt their social contracts after WW2 ended. The US built the New Deal (which has mostly been dismantled and/or sabotaged since), but we haven’t really changed the social contract or updated most of our welfare / safety net systems for the modern age.

People who want those things simply don’t see how they fit into the current US social contract.
I think the decade old comment related to a different part of the code regarding the number of followers you have in relation to the number of accounts you follow. (Everybody on the call wants to remove this: I wonder why they haven't yet.)
Why do they exist then? No code references it, but that's Scala/JVM so many things depend on runtime initialization, so maybe some other systems do? wich ones?

Is is it there to help fight impersonations? should be solved with Twitter Blue already?

There was reports of people receiving notifications about Musk tweets despite not following him, so..
I'm not sure why Mastodon would be interested in Twitters non-chronological timeline. It seems to be pretty antithetical to its goals.
Whenever I was looking at using CoreOS, I was somewhat disheartened that automatic reboots weren't built in: https://github.com/coreos/rpm-ostree/issues/2831. Has this changed? I know zincati has maintenance window support, which would also be nice to have.
but how can we be sure it isn't doing that?! first, we would need to figure out a way to identify who-
