They sound different and that’s the point. There’s a whole genre of music that sounds like vinyl or staticy tapes. Clearly people like it.

People are going to express preferences for one or the other, telling people that LEDs are exact equivalents is just wrong.

We can say, “yes they’re different, but the environment is more important [1], suck it up” but it changes the tone.

[1] Which is such a joke, the waste from my electric stove or leaving the window open with the AC on uses more than the savings from LEDs. Halogens are already more expensive and you pay per watt so there’s not some horrible externality not being priced in.
> harder for the product to be much larger than a power of 3

Unfortunately plenty of things that are hard to do still exist. Take primes for example: every time you pass another prime there are more primes that could be factors of larger numbers, so it must be harder and harder for large numbers to be prime. Somehow they still manage.

Edit: I just quickly ran your prod(3 + 1/x) for x in {1001,1003,...,1001 + 2n} for various values of n, and empirically they are indistinguishable from uniformly distributed between powers of two on a log scale. You're going to need a better argument than "it's hard to hit a power of two with a product of (3 + 1/x)".

Edit 2: (re your point 4) your floor(log2(3^n)) + 1 also seems to be an incorrect upper bound: many of the products I calculated for my first edit are above it.

Edit 3: Even if that upper bound did hold, your point 5 doesn't stand up to a quick test: I followed your method for loop lengths up to 1000, and the upper bounds on x_1 bounce around a lot but tend to grow.
Pneumatics -The Secret Life of Components
I'm still looking for an ideal LED bulb for use everywhere. I've mostly settled on Hyperikon. My desired specs:

* A19 base
* 2700K
* 7-11W (at typical efficiencies, not sure about lumens)
* dimmable with very high dynamic range (fully dimmed should be just barely lit)
* good color rendering (high CRI / R9)
* good PSU design for long life
* flicker free under all circumstances
* cheapish (< $10/bulb)

The irony is that there is a deep flashlight enthusiast community that focus on all of these specs (except maybe the high dynamic range), but when you look for A19 bulbs, they're all just using whatever is at Home Depot. :/

Why government-issued? Could just as well become a de-facto corporate monopoly by Google or someone else. Is Gmail the “standard” email or is it a government-backed one?

This problem has been coined “Digital Feudalism”. And medieval feudalism (or at least our popular conception of it) wasn’t driven by governments.
The advice can't always be right. As a founder, I get a lot of (also unsolicited) advice every day, and it is the founder's responsibility to decide what advice makes sense in the current context. YC partners always emphasise that, and I really appreciate that.

In general, I can only say positive things when it comes to YC advice (especially on the fundraising side - YC partners know A LOT about fundraising)
Wow, another AI utopian vision from Silicon Valley that glosses over the real-world consequences. Khosla's all too convenient optimism fails to confront the harsh reality: private companies hoarding AI technology, reaping insane profits, and leaving workers in the dust.
Reminds me of what happens when you try fitting a high order polynomial through some points. I'd just look at it as being overfit, but assume that's not helpful in solving the problem.
> At most this would be a TOS violation

And would it be a ShareGPT TOS violation (assuming it had any)?

If OpenAI says "you can share these online but don't use them for AI training", people share them on another site, and then someone else comes along to scrape that site for AI training data, there's no relationship between OpenAI and the scraper for the TOS to apply to.

Normally I think you'd rely on copyright in that kind of case, but that doesn't apply to ChatGPT's output, so...

There’s a big difference between gun ownership in those countries vs the US. In those countries, you can’t just toss loaded guns in your glove box (with the safeties off!) like I’ve seen some of my American friends do. Americans have literally zero training on how to use the weapons they own.
Sorry, I wasn't clear at all. The non-dimmable ones seem prone to flickering with changing voltage, and all grids have varying voltage. And then, at least if you're like me, you start thinking of all the broken things that might manifest in flickering lights.

I'm not that guy, but snaps are the main reason for not liking Ubuntu recently. The impression I get is that Canonical is trying to monetize Ubuntu's popularity and a lot of people are resentful of that since Ubuntu gets most of it's value from the free software it bundles into it's distro.

The clinical descriptions of these sorts of things are evolving; first it was ADD, then it was ADHD, now it's often talked about as three things, ADHD-H (hyperactive), ADHD-I (impulsive), and ADHD-C (combined).

Furthermore, sometimes folks have developed coping mechanisms, you may have a handle on behaviors in some context, but if circumstances change, you may not feel that way anymore.

Then again, you also just plain may not have it, it's true.
fwiw i am also in the US and never had an issue finding the right LED, which are far superior to the older bulbs in every way from my perspective
I agree. The Git CLI and terminology is awful, but it's the one that everyone uses. If you make a better unofficial interface you'll just make it harder because now you need to know both systems and can only search for one.

The only solution is for Git itself to fix it, but that's very unlikely. We did get `git switch` but that's it. They'll never rename "the index" to something sensible (e.g. "draft") or make a sane way to delete remote branches.

I recommend just learning with a GUI (Git Extensions is good) so you don't have to deal with the abysmal CLI UX until you at least understand the DAG.

We can only hope it continues. As corporate office space gets converted to other purposes, it will be a more expensive lift in the future to bring more space online, hopefully destroying demand.
You can combat that in the prompt, I use "just code, no words" which will also remove code comments from output. Bard doesn't respect the same request. You can be more succinct with chatgpt. Half the things I ask for in Bard give me this:

Honestly, in my work with kids I'm not seeing social media as being a big problem. Mass media has existed for well over 100 years. Kids have always known kids who were exceptional.

The difference now is kids are much more aware of the news and thanks to the hyper-partisan news reporting they're being continually bombarded with Bad News. Not bad news as in airplane crashes and stuff like that, but bad news with a political spin: the economy is crashing, AI is going to take all our jobs, the left wants Big Government to take away all your rights, the right wants to create a Christian theocracy - the list goes on, and on, and on, and on.

If anything, kids' social media, i.e. where kids actually hang out, gets them away from all that crap. That's why kids love TikTok. They watch videos of kids doing cool and interesting things. No politics.
Competing with one of their main competitors is not a priority the CEO should have?
No one is alleging copyright violations. The claim is that they violated OpenAI's terms of service. We don't know whether Google ever even agreed to those terms of service in the first place.
Looks cool! Are you planning on adding more customization to be able to influence the AI? See https://bettergpt.chat/ (it's also open source and uses API in the browser). Basically with that frontend you can control the role of all messages (e.g. add system messages) and also edit them all to better influence the AI in some cases.

I really wish i could find a brand that would reliably tick all the boxes:

- Does not overdrive the LEDs and Does not run power supply components at the limit of what they can. (Thus good longevity)

- Has a current based driver, so that slight voltage shifts from an appliance kicking on don't result in an obvious brightness shift.

- Suitable for use in recessed lighting or enclosed fixtures. (For better or worse, can lights and enclosed fixtures are still relatively common.)

- Makes bulbs in most common shapes like A19, chandelier, and PAR/BR shapes (for recessed lighting fixtures)

- Dimmable (And yes, I am quite well aware that being in conjunction with a current source driver is more complicated, but it is still possible). I'm not even particularly big on dimming, but I am big on smart switches, and many of those include dimming capabilities, and I don't want to worry about which bulbs I put where.

- Good color rendering index (and other similar features)

Even the linked companies products don't meet the full list. Their only dimmable A-series bulbs are the filament bulbs, which are not suitable for all use cases. Similarly, non of the non-filament bulbs in the A series shapes are marked as suitable for use in an enclosure.

I don't see that in OP's comment. Pol Pot and Stalin still justified their actions to themselves. In general, the point is that, aside from a small percentage of genuine sociopaths, you need to brainwash most people into some kind of religious and/or ideological framework to get them to do the really nasty stuff at scale. Remember this Himmler speech to SS?

"I am now referring to the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish people. It's one of those things that is easily said: 'The Jewish people are being exterminated', says every party member, 'this is very obvious, it's in our program, elimination of the Jews, extermination, we're doing it, hah, a small matter.' And then they turn up, the upstanding 80 million Germans, and each one has his decent Jew. They say the others are all swines, but this particular one is a splendid Jew. But none has observed it, endured it. Most of you here know what it means when 100 corpses lie next to each other, when there are 500 or when there are 1,000."

This does not preclude atrocities, obviously. But it does make them much more costly to perpetrate, and requires more time to plan and condition the participants, all of which reduces both the likelihood and the potential scope.
Lovely website!
To add a thing to the list: RF interference.

I wanted to upgrade the super faint positional lights in my two garage openers, and I need to stay <= 10W, so I tried some LEDs. But they kill the 433 MHz remote signal, sadly. Tried 3 different brands, a couple of which don't actually fully turn off, or give off a loud hum to boot.

The openers use rear car light bulbs, for some reason (BA15s).
breaking terms of service is not punishable in any way. Facebook tried and lost in court
A CFL ballast can be modified with a bypass by snipping a couple of wires and tying them to other wires. It takes 10 minutes and it’s reversible. I did it myself after watching a YouTube video. The LED t8 replacement was cheaper and brighter and used less electricity.
But Bard isn't a foundation model?

Clearly this data has value as some sort of RLHF finetuning dataset. Honestly they probably used it for negative examples.
>Maybe this could be a prosumer retrofit thing, where the AC voltage gets converted to DC in the junction box, and then DC is sent down to the fixture.

The problem is that in 99.99% of homes outlets are on the same circuits as light fixtures, you would need to do some major rewiring.
Totally fair. Don’t think I was being critical. We’re probably better off without all the noise (from any source)
The recent HiQ vs LinkedIn case would seem to make this ToS unenforceable, unless Google actually created a user account on ShareGPT and affirmatively accepted the terms. "Acceptance by default" does not count, and I can easily browse ShareGPT without affirmatively accepting any ToS, without which web scraping is totally legal.
Kraftful (YC S19) Hiring Founding Eng to Build an AI Co-Pilot for Product Folks
> In their picture of the world, you, the founders, should only build a product and talk to customers, everything else is superfluous and waste of time. Hiring is waste of time, paid advertising is waste of time, content is waste of time, talking to investors is waste of time, getting media coverage is waste of time.

Getting you to focus on those two things, particularly the second one which many technical founders are initially out of their comfort zone doing (I need to work on it myself), is probably a huge value add in itself if they're successful at doing just that.
> I just switched from a legacy bank with a bad UI to one of these neo-banks, which has a slick UI. I spend way less time with the new bank - and its not because i am getting less value...

Pricing doesn't necessarily need to incentivize all good behavior. As you're aware, having a product with a bad UI is an incentive for your users to switch to alternative services.

Oh, it's a good point to look out for. I'm just really annoyed at these.
Companies are social relations with legal protection.

Apps are intangible and servers are merely substrate.

Hypothetically I could even steal all of TikTok's servers and I still wouldn't be TikTok. TikTok simply isn't the sum of its physical parts.

To put it in Saussureian terms, the signifier TikTok doesn't completely signify tangible objects. Therefore part of the signified must necessarily be intangible.
If the only constant in the equation is you, maybe you should re-evaluate your assumptions? I am unable to determine if this was a on-time event for you or if this is an ongoing problem, so this is a question not a judgement.

Don't run web services as root.

Use net capabilities if you need tcp port bindings below 1024.

I'd also recommend running the git commands inside a forked process with another user in the same group (which has limited access to the filesystem). Alternatively use the git user/group and add the web service daemon user to the git group.

Also check that your linux distribution doesn't have binaries with the sticky flag set which could be used for privilege escalation. Double-check the list of gtfobins against your system's installed packages/binaries.

How? It makes complete sense to me? "Selection pressure" is basically a euphemism, the mechanism of evolution is the differentiation between survivors and those that fucking die.

If a lot of evolution is happening, if there's strong pressure and quick changes in response to it, then it means there is a lot of "selecting" going on, a lot of death or at least failure to reproduce which isn't experienced as much less distressing for most organisms.

Way down in the hole.
> Not really, as you have to also assume that enforcement faces no opposition at any point (not at acquisition of capabilities, not at deployment, not at re-supplying etc.) or that the population actually cannot fight back.

Yes, that is exactly what I described as the limit case.

But, as I note, the problem exists more generally, even outside of the limit case; the more you concentrate power in a narrow group of humans, the more durable tyranny becomes.

Worst case scenario they just start only training on pre-2020 data and then finetuning on a dataset which they somehow know to be 'clean'.

I love having a house and yard, and never having to pollute the environment to shift my bag of carbon water to do the same work worse somewhere less adapted to my being. There will come a time when passions die about RTO and companies stop paying for real estate simply to improve profits for those that don’t need to be collocated. “Culture” and other malarkey will matter not at all once passions die, the current management retires, and the bulk of workers went to college and high school online.

So POE lighting is something that is taking off for businesses but could also be more easily retrofitted into a house. This would put the conversion from AC to DC in a centralized area which allows for more efficient hardware to be used.
