I agree with your first point, but realistically, is there any audit that would satisfy its critics?

If the Western governments want to take you down, no amount of words on a piece of paper sprinkled with legal incantations is going to stop them. They'll just decide something you did which was legal, is now illegal and go from there.

Your only real option is to abandon that sinking ship and let the captain feel in control. Years later when the population is on life rafts and they've elected a new competent captain, you can return.
Pretty sure that OP was being sarcastic.

Companies like selling cars, so I think they pick colors most people prefer. "Exciting" "Unique" colors look a bit silly or non-unique when your neighbors have the same color. If what you are asking for is 1000 color choices instead of 10, that's obviously more expensive to mass produce or customize.
Like the sister WaPo article hyping up this job title, also involving Anthropic (https://archive.is/pvwlx), this is still a super small market and only red-hot only because of Anthropic's job posting. It's like watching a penny stock have a huge price spike when there's one buyer and one seller.

In addition, I can't fathom paying $300k for skills less than a Ph.D or self-directed research. You'll be wanting to find emergent stuff like this and not just crafting prompts to get the right response: https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.11903 This is probably what prompt engineering should be about, not just crafting stuff for a particular output.

You can also get some freelance market rates here: https://promptbase.com/hire although the activity/reviews are quite low volume. Almost anyone can learn to do what these folks do, especially in stable diffusion land with all of the web-ui plugins.

I mean, in an alternate universe where atomic weapons were a little easier to manufacture at home would it not have made sense for governments to aggressively crack down on anyone doing anything even remotely resembling building them?

I guess the second question is - would they have succeeded or would we all just have died?
Gitlab Is Having Issues
GPT is a much better debugger than coder in my experience. It is a drop in replacement for googling random linux errors too.

"I'm getting this error <error> with the following code. Please add log statements that will test for all the things that could be going wrong <code>"

Saved me about 15 minutes yesterday. Not only does chatGPT generate the probably causes of the error, it knows how to test the code for those errors. The human doesn't even have to read the error message anymore.

> if we are talking about what is allowed in football the standard are the IFAB laws, not what UEFA stipulate for their elite competitions.

To be pedantic though, EUFA defines grassroots football as anything that is non-professional and non-elite, and since 2017 IFAB says that national FAs are free to make their own rules on pitch dimensions for grassroots football. So there is no contradiction - IFAB, EUFA and your FA are all in agreement :)
If you play it through YouTube then yes this will work
There’s nothing inherently slow about Basic. There were several implementations of Basic compilers that were plenty fast enough. Sure, they weren’t as fast as C, C++, Pascal, and Fortran, but they were good enough to make commercial software with.
Don't you think this is needlessly argumentative? It's not relevant to the parent topic.

People don't want the metaverse for themselves, but Meta's customers have never been its users.

What people (the customers) want is a dashboard that lets them dispatch memes to other people (the users). Meta already sells that. But they want those memes to affect the users' behavior, and Meta is betting that they can turn a stream of user biometrics (collected by the headset) into a way to better tune the meme-delivery-to-desired-behavior pipeline.

Or at least that's what they've convinced the decision makers. It's probably a long way off from working and instead that narrative is just being used to justify building something sci-fi.
Quoting myself from the post I linked above: as a machine learning engineer, I can attest that the only reasons machine learning engineers are good at prompt engineering are a) years of practice and b) a tendency to be pedantic assholes. But there are other professions who are even better at being pedantic assholes such as writers and lawyers, so there’s no need for someone with a specialized skillset to do it.

There is some granularity in terms of prompt engineering with ReACT/LangChain, which does require a machine learning background to make any sense out of it because it's very arcane. But that's not what these job openings are looking for, yet.
Yes.

100%. Do it, don't look back. Disable it on a per-website basis if needed, but... largely, I simply accept that I don't need to do those things I can't do with it on.

I've been running Lockdown on my iOS devices since before iOS 16 came out (I installed the betas to play with it). The only actual annoyances I've found in practical, regular, daily use:

- Lots of websites use webfonts for icons. Those don't render, and you get empty "No font glyph" boxes instead for various arrows and icons. It's not a big deal in regular use.

- If someone sends you an animated gif as a MMS message (maybe iMessage too), it won't actually animate. Nothing of value is lost.

- The latest from "that guy" won't work, because there's no WebGL support for Javascript animations of watches, bicycles, cameras, etc. Given that the JS is non-obfuscated, I don't mind disabling Lockdown for his site.

- Some websites still use image formats that don't render, but this is far better than it was even six months ago when Lockdown was fresh and new.

Otherwise... I've eliminated an awful lot of actively exploited interfaces for almost no loss in functionality.
The cat is out of the bag. Some people might volunteer to slow down. But others inevitably won't. And that creates this sense of FOMO with everyone. I think the reason OpenAI is choosing to operate in the open has been exactly this. This way they get to control the narrative, act as a first mover in the market, and ensure it is done right (by their notion of this). Of course others are working on the same topics and research in this area is progressing rapidly.

In a way the worst possible outcome is that some less benevolent parties than OpenAI start taking the lead here. These parties are already active. They are just less vocal and open about the whole thing. People can stick their heads in the sand of course but that won't stop e.g. the Chinese from moving full steam ahead on their agenda.

I'd prefer for them to not be the first or only ones to achieve AGIs. And the race for that is very much right now.

How the Internet has Changed Relationships (2022)
They solve the problem of being able to run software against a known set of dependencies instead of depending on the versions that come with the distro. Older packages can still run even when the dependency version the distro provides has changed in a breaking way (as parent suggests), but also the other way, new packages can ship features using newer dependency versions that the distro might not have yet.
If anything the pseudo-scientific, barely regulated industry of "herbal" and "natural" remedies and supplements is booming right now and has been for two decades at least. Nobody is replacing anything, you can buy whatever you want.
That's a pretty cool service. But as usual with these services today, it's totally trivial to make it do something completely different than what's intended:

which would make me very wary of hooking it up with an API-key that I'm paying for, since I'd basically be paying for free GPT access for anyone who visits my site, while I would probably only be interesting in paying when they are asking questions related to my topics.
Fine, a modern example: Tim Berners Lee didn't need licenses.

In the long run, licenses are for losers.

IMHO the key distinction is between BASIC, the group of languages, and VB, the SDK. The article notes this but I think it is really the crux. In other words, did BASIC draw us in because it is a straightforward language? Or because of the power that VB provided?

As others point out, many hobbyists still use variants of BASIC...I don't think we can claim it's the most practical language for most uses, but it has its niche for sure, and is fun to use.

Visual Basic, however, while at the time representing a _fantastic_ entry point to development (at least it was for me), has been legitimately replaced by other, newer models, some of which the article notes.
This is an important step that needs to happen everywhere.

Yeah I agree. Part of growing up is recognising patterns everywhere, including art. I don't doubt the process of making everything more average is there, but it's hard to ascertain that when every observer is biased.
"Winnie the Pooh"
BNB is the 4th largest marketcap token out there [0] at $49B. The tokenomics around it are pretty sound (it'll eventually be burnt to be a maximum of 100m tokens) [1]. Binance has done a good job of creating a lot of utility around it that extends out beyond just their trading platform. It is also used as gas on the Binance Smart Chain. Owning BNB is as close to owning stock in Binance, as you can get.

Binance has been doing KYC for all sorts of politicians, globally, for years now. CZ is not some kid from Stanford living in the Bahamas, who was only printing fake money and pretending to be altruistic.

This will end up with a fat settlement, it won't end up with CZ in jail and the market is reflecting that. NFA.

Update: I'm getting downvoted, so I guess people are reacting to what I said instead of making a comment about what they see as incorrect. Just some clarity, I'm not some CZ fanboy, nor am I trying to justify Binance. What I'm trying to do is provide a bit of background on why I feel that the price isn't going to zero on this news.
I know about unsafe at any speed. Correlation is not causation. Trends don't mean monotonically decreasing. Was there also a book written in 1931 and in 1945?
There are some situations where I'd say opt-in telemetry, properly messaged and with transparency/user-visible logs about what is uploaded, is fine.

But your tool is specifically for handling highly sensitive credentials, and telemetry can be used as part of an attack surface. For your tool, any hint of telemetry, even opt-in, would be a massive red flag.

Having a feedback button that launches a plain old mailto: link might be a good balance to provide an additional mechanism to learn about users' pain points.
Lol. Or even "man sees Gordon Ramsey in kitchen with wife..."
Noticed Sam Altman was in the list yesterday too. Now removed. Has any of the high profile signatories confirmed publicly?
Especially head scratching given that Google's Pub/Sub has an emulator as does SNS/SQS via LocalStack.

I am also a big fan of ASB and I cannot fathom how a multi-billion dollar company that bills itself on developer productivity can't ship emulators for their cloud suite.

If even for their own internal testing and release validation.
Bad? Apart from your own moral opinion, how is killing bad?

Why is killing a plant better than an animal? Because their chemistry includes some sort of pain hormone? So do some plants.

This is not an argument either of us can win, because it’s a morality question to which there can be many answers.

I simply don’t see how eating only plants is more moral. For all we know free grazing animals that we eat are way more happy and stress free during their lives than in the wild. Just like humans spent most of their last 50k years on the verge of starvation and barely surviving. Our current state of abundance is about 60-70 years old (20 for third world)
I had this problem but with videogames. What I ended up doing was making a giant spreadsheet in Airtable with every game I've ever played and ever want to play. I have a nice little "What To Play Next" grid of images that I'm constantly tinkering with the order of as my fancy gravitates towards one genre or another. E.g. If I finish a long JRPG I'll probably filter on games of a shorter length or a Shooter for a palette cleanse and move that higher up in the list.

The important parts for me were:

* Don't assume you'll play everything or stress about "missing" games

* Easy visibility into what I'm currently playing, what I liked in the past, and what I've been thinking about playing next

* Try not to play more than 2 games concurrently. Then I end up never finishing anything, I appreciate the games I play less, and then I have less fun playing games overall.

Bonus points with this approach: Since I always have something I'm excited to play next, I'm never in a rush to buy games new. I actually save a fair amount of money because I'm almost always playing games a couple years old and on sale for 50%+ off.

This approach has been so successful and enjoyable for me I even thought about spinning this off into a product online but figured my weird OCD approach maybe isn't that generally applicable to other. Plus you can just create your own Airtable tailored to your own needs.

EDIT

If anyone wants to make their own list and wants some data to start, here's ~1000 games to start with my data with some of the more personal columns pruned out: https://www.dropbox.com/s/guc3tjefoyeyfvr/Games-Library-2023...

Most of the columns are self-explanatory. IGDB = is a games database run by Twitch (https://www.igdb.com/). I use the ID as basically a foreign key to their table and then I have scripts that query stuff in there like their critic's rating and release date programmatically.

Also if anyone knows of any other public data sets of video games and video game metadata please let me know!
> I am not for any top down laws banning things, but

But that is what is this topic about. So if something is not "equal swap" then we can consider ban?
Why not? Gold is both a commodity and a security (think gold ETFs).

This logic seems like wishful thinking that people can't get rekt by both the SEC and CFTC, they can.
Well, the good news about an EV is that if you're creeping along at barely any speed, the consumption is going to be way lower than a comparable gas car. Basically all you're using is AC/heat. A gas car comparably is much less efficient while idling.
.....does it have... doors?

I'm gonna say no. I deal with months of snow and slush and a few miles of "70mph" (really 85+mph) highway.

I mean, looking at the math that powers these models I don't see how they can replace reasoning. The tokens mean absolutely nothing to the algorithm. It doesn't know how algebra works and if you prompt ChatGPT to propose a new theorem based on some axioms it will produce something that sounds like a theorem...

... but believing it is a theorem would be similar to believing that horoscopes can predict the future as well.

Maybe some day we'll have a model that can be trained to reason as humans do and can do mathematics on its own... we've been talking about that possibility for decades in the automated theorem proving space. However it seems that this is a tough nut to crack.

Training LLMs already takes quite a lot of compute resources and energy. Maybe we will have to wait until we have fusion energy and can afford to cool entire data centers dedicated to training these reasoning models as new theorems are postulated and proofs added.

... or we could simply do it ourselves. The energy inputs for humans compared to output is pretty good and affordable.

However having an LLM that also has facilities to interact with an automated theorem proving system would be a handy tool indeed. There are plenty of times in formal proofs where we want to elide the proof of a theorem we want to use because it's obvious and proving it would be tedious and not make the proof you're writing any more elegant; a future reasoning model that could understand the proof goals and use tactics to solve would be a nice tool indeed.

However I think we're still a long way from that. No reason to get hyped about it.
My first "language" was straight machine codes. I have then "progressed" to assembly, C and many other languages. For some reasons I've never liked Basic and whenever I had a choice I would avoid it.
> The not right thinking part is well justified and you can find hundreds of hours of debates on youtube of religious people getting outargued like children with regards to every single argument they could possibly make for believing in religion to make any sense whatsoever.

You can find similar things for humans of all stripes doing silly things, including people breaking the law in various ways, and hold onto your shorts: some of the people in the videos have dark colored skin! GASP!! Think of all the scandalous beliefs (aka: facts) one could form based on that observation!!!

> you can believe in what you want, but if your position on it is anything other than "I do it because I want to even though I know it makes no sense whatsoever", you either just lack some basic info or you are in fact not right thinking.

Alternatively: you are not actually omniscient.

It's already public knowledge that it is a Chinese company

Because they are chinese they should instead have extensive links to Mexico instead?

Ohh interesting
Have scientists found a “brake pedal” for aging?
Yes I have. For a couple of years and my team still uses it.

But Tailwind is sensitive to DOM changes too, since every style is on tag. You wouldn't remove any tag without understanding its usage in a component using Tailwind. Why would you treat a CSS component any other way? If a tag's there, it must be used for something. Again, I may miss something but I see that as normal care and dilligence in both ways.

On a sidenote it's now easy to include, for example, all headings to be styled the same in a component, thereby limiting the need to adjust the CSS in case of a change of tag. There are many ways now to leave markup options opened if need be.
Hey binary wizard I like ur UX and will try yours. Thanks for sharing
Yeah I'm sure there are some. You asked if it was played out, and in my opinion the answer is yes.

It sounds like you have a -ly name you want to use though, in which case, go for it!
It's worrying that a lot of companies aren't pushing these types of changes back. Particularly with Google, they'll have software patents that prevent others from implementing the same improvements but also, based on their track record, will abandon this project within a few years. When that happens, their improvements will simply be inaccessible.
I agree, it is a little stuck up, on the part of the elitist devs.

If this was a little hobbiest distro, I'd agree with you, but this is one of the most popular distros out there. There is a certain expectation of competency and quality.

I would argue that shipping the master branch of a bootloader isn't competent when there are stable releases available, and not addressing the issue when literally thousands of users are having the problem isn't very respectful of your userbase.

FWIW, I did eventually fix it, but the endeavour os folks were much more understanding and helpful with the issue. The arrogance I saw on r/arch was insane and offputting.
I've been using ubuntu server for I don't even know how long, but am going to be moving all my stuff to debian when I rebuild my hardware here soon.

I should've done it a long time ago but until recently Ubuntu has been "debian but with some nice little extra bits of effort here and there to help make it smoother". Now it's "debian but with a lot of spicy canonical opinions dumped on it".

1. Look after your health. What works to alleviate stress for me is Ashwagandha. A single tablet does the trick (you should only take it if stressed or it will make you very lethargic, i.e. not daily).

2. Get busy, action overcomes fear. Start applying for jobs.

3. Good luck.
True, but it is also stupid to work that much.
