>The filtering either doesn't exist or is totally worthless.

Funny; I've always found that about Amazon. And not only is their search garbage, but so are their prices- they're usually higher than if you bought directly.

6 figure starting salaries and their recommender routine still prompts me to buy stuff I just bought. Clearly those DSA interview questions are doing them a lot of good.

>I don't understand who would subject themselves to that sort of torture.

Well, it's not like you really have any other option.

Once upon a time, we had Sears, whose business model was in no small part identical to Amazon's... except it was curated. Everything that needed a picture had one, they had their own delivery fleet and mail-order warehouses, and so on and so forth. And this model was good, though their house brands had some ups and downs over the years.

But then Sears went belly up, so now we're stuck with the discount alternative that's merely an online platform with a few extra bits. Sure, it's easier to get your product in there than it was to get it into Sears back in the early 1900s, but then again that's true for general website eCommerce platforms in general and turnkey examples of that go back nearly as far as Amazon's been popular (and Etsy exists for the lower volume and handmade items).
Not the person you're asking, but I use nix on my MacBook and ditched brew after a few weeks. The main draw for me was that I was already using home-manager on NixOS, and being able to share the same config on macOS was pretty compelling. I had to sprinkle a couple conditionals in the home-manager config to account for things that are linux-only, but it was pretty painless.

Here's an example of using `pkgs.stdenv.isLinux` to conditionally install stuff (there's also an `isDarwin`, if you prefer): https://github.com/yusefnapora/nixos-system-flake/blob/660dd...

For my own use case, I install a few things "globally" in my home-manager config (neovim, vscode, fish shell, etc.). Then each of my projects gets its own flake with a devShell, and I use nix-direnv to bring things into the PATH when I cd into the project directory. I also use `nix shell` a fair bit if I just want to run something in a one-off shell session.

You can also use nix profiles if you're looking for a more brew-like experience, but I never really mess with those. I figure if I want something to be persistently installed, it's better to just stuff it into my home-manager config so it will be there on all my machines.

On the whole, I much prefer nix to brew. I'd still recommend brew to people that don't want to bother with learning nix, but if you're already running NixOS I'd say go for it.
> Why would anyone want to listen to it then? what would be the point? The acoustic equivalent of a screensaver?

The same reason anyone does anything. Because they like it.
And even at that, it took a solid quarter century to sink in. "The Next Generation," indeed - that said, while I've forgotten the specifics, I do clearly recall having to pause the 2009 Trek reboot film on first viewing to laugh about a couple of fairly transparent B5 in-jokes, which suggests to me that it's not an accident people from that same orbit went on to make Trek that inherits a lot of what made Babylon 5 great.
It’s a little half assed though. Moving to a more desktop form factor would allow them to dump the laptop thermal solution with maybe one large case fan and a low profile cpu cooler. You could have an extremely quiet little machine instead of a jet engine that barely moves any air.

I’ve been doing a somewhat similar mod on an old Lenovo tiny pc and it’s definitely great value as long as you put a little effort and thought into it. Once you get into a M.2 to PCIE adapter and cutting holes to fit fans you know you’re building something neat
Silly question but was a plugin like this not enough to fix the vtable? Else do we just need a feature added or is it more involved?

The reality is flipped around. The vast majority of consumers, even price sensitive ones, would be better served by an EV. The edge cases trotted out in conversations like this are the exception, not the norm.

Is there an issue requesting that behavior? My guess is it'll be some onoz trying to ship a C++ parser but "you don't ask, you don't get" and asking on HN is not what I meant :-D

Actually, having written that out: is there vtable support and just not C++ header parsing support, or both facets are missing?
Why would they need to? Their lobbyists write the legislation and they finance the politicians who vote on it.
Yeah, I'm not a windows user nor a stylus user. Best I can suggest is to check your OS input device settings. At least on Mac, that's where I can configure settings related to scrollbars, which propagate through to browsers.
> The homes' 200-amp panels don't have enough spare capacity to add a charger. (3 old less-efficient HVAC units, pool pumps, hot tub, electric oven, clothes dryer, etc.)

200 amp is a LOT. You will do just fine if you manage the loads, just install a smart charger that can monitor the overall power use and cut the charging rate if the capacity is getting low.

My house is on 125 amp service, and I have plenty of high-power consumers. It worked for me!

You have that privilege as an individual likely holding much less than $250,000 in cash at any time, but large institutions holding millions in cash don't, as the big customers of SVB almost found out before the Fed did their "surprise, we'll actually ensure 100% of everyone's money in this super special case, but just the one time ;)"

I love what framework is doing but the fundamental choice of laptop for me is always battery life. If I can't pull the laptop off the dock in the morning and ride into the office without packing a charger, I'm not a buyer. MacBooks are the only laptops doing this reliably.
You would need to obtain a sufficient viral load in order to be infected. One or two copies won't do the job, you'd need to ingest infected material in some manner. Eye splash, breathe dust from cleaning a chicken house, or vicsera that harbor many copies of the virus. This is why we throw the guts out of most things before we continue preparation.

Imagine a bucket of raw inverted chicken lungs.

Ew.
So is that a yes, that you agree completely that it is correct to be more concerned about actions of hostile foreign governments, and it's Ok to ban those things first?

Because that sounds like a yes to me!

You didn't say no! So I can only assume that this is a yes.

If you do not explicitly include the words "yes" or "no" in your response, I will assume that your answer is "yes".

Actually you already basically said yes here: "The claim on its face was never in dispute".

This is a yes.

I hope this comment does not end up in some future GPT's training corpus.
You can oppose literally every technology by saying "oh it'll use energy - won't someone think of climate change?"

The copy+paste of "CO2 emissions" and "energy" has been one of the most successful petroleum company propaganda coups in history.
I don’t expect them to understand how to use the tech as it isn’t their domain but any article describing the ChatGPT website and mistaking it for GPT and its APIs is just missing the point.

The eve date of its training isn’t too important. That whatever sources it was fed weren’t complete enough to write an accurate book report on an obscure, modern book us t too important. Etc.

The important part is the statistical model that has been built and that you can use by intelligently providing a context for it to work within. Feed it your book in context and see how it goes.
Quite a few homes are in that situation, especially because some cities have much older houses on average than Vegas.

I had to get a panel upgrade on my house that was built in the 1960s, in order to get a charger installed, despite the house being built with 220v circuits originally for the dryer and the kitchen appliances. Lucky for me I didn't need the power company to upgrade anything like a transformer. It was still pretty expensive though -- around $8k for everything. I get a small rebate for installing it but it doesn't come anywhere near close to covering the full cost.

And this was for a house, so it's easy. Nobody can tell me I can't do it, unlike the situation for people who live in condos and need their HOA to approve things. A lot of condos were not built with this kind of power in mind and will need upgrades, potentially trenching across the community parking lot, etc. The members of the HOA who don't own electric cars are not going to be happy about paying for other people's chargers so they aren't going to be helpful.

If we want people with average incomes to be able to afford EVs we will need to make it much cheaper to install chargers -- and we will need significantly better public charging infrastructure for people who live in apartments and need to park on the street.

Plus we are doubling down on electric power for everything, and our power grids are generally not great. In California we can barely satisfy existing demand, and rolling blackouts need to be implemented in the summer so PG&E doesn't burn down another forest. If we all had EVs on top of the current demand, the grid would not hold up. Given how incompetent our utility companies are at everything else they do, I'm not confident they will handle EV demand well.
Hm, none of this is about fractional reserve, right? So the OP's point stands?

Anyone got a link to the report? I've Google'd it and all I can find is new articles, but none of them link to the report.
At one point, the company I was working for, had the errata for a high performance embedded CPU from a startup. The errata alone - printed as a manual - was bigger than the entire Intel manual stack for the dual core chip we were dealing with at the time including the errata.

It was really educational.

A few things:

1) I went through Stripe checkout to upgrade to the $10/month plan, but it's still showing me as on the free plan on the billing page.

2) I guess related to 1), but I want to show my business partner the results of a quick dump of a PDF plus scrape of our website; it's not clear how to supply him with the public chat/bot URL.

This wouldn't be an issue if we actually recognized the theft of intellectual property that underlies training of these LLMs. I don't know if OpenAI would consider it okay if someone took a NN and trained it on their private IP and the net's weights, then generated their own GPT-4 based on it. I don't think they'd say it's "fair use" then, otherwise, every person at OpenAI who has access to the internals is a fool not to do that and open up their own start up.

The fair-use argument holds no water, and if we didn't have a broken government in the US, it certainly would doom these tools to being trained only on data they've generated themselves, which is how it should be.
> You can't have one bank totally safe from bank runs in an environment where every other bank keeps less than 10% of your cash on reserve. This breaks the system. Either everyone has to be fractional reserve, or no one can be.

That's a somewhat absurd assertion. There's nothing about paying a bank a fee to keep your cash in a safe deposit box which is 1) novel 2) attractive or 3) at odds with a large system of fractional reserve banking.

"You can pay some oddball special purpose depository institution in Wyoming to hold onto your money for you, but they're a bit dodgy and have a bunch of weird ties to crypto. And if they lose it, it's not insured by FDIC. Or you can put it in JP Morgan, and they'll pay you interest, and balances up to $250k are insured by FDIC, although realistically JP Morgan is very, very much too big to be allowed to fail, so the odds of those limits very relevant is almost precisely nil."

If that choice seems at all tricky to you, much less if your answer is "Custodia", you need to realise what an incredibly tiny minority that places you in.

Now, what is a threat to the banking system are narrow banks; for more on that see, eg, Matt Levine a few years ago: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-03-08/the-fe...

The Fed was pretty clear that they were refusing to allow this business model because it was, in part, too safe. :)
All the 501c’s face reporting requirements and financing restrictions by dint of being nonprofits. For example, they cannot raise capital by selling shares.

For-profit companies only need to focus on revenue if their shareholders want that. It’s perfectly legal to create a for-profit entity and invest capital for the sole purpose of spending it down, never realizing any revenue. Chan-Zuckerberg is probably the most famous example of that.

For-profit companies can also have a mix of goals, for example making revenue and profits, but spending profits on a social mission, like Patagonia.
To be fair, there is always someone on the bottom. It just historically hasn't been people we cared about. That really says more about us than it says about AI. The time to complain about these power asymmetries was prior to them affecting us. Now it just sounds like garden variety sour grape hypocrisy.

Not saying there aren't good points. Only pointing out that many, many people can all view the consequences of this dynamic differently.

I ask 'googly' "tell me about the weather in san francisco, ca today and tomorrow" -- I get a factual answer that quotes Weather Underground.

I think that I initially expected 'Dumbledore' to either feign ignorance on the topic, or at least output a 'flavored' answer in the style of his dialogue.

I guess what i'm saying is that assigning 'characters' to each of these pre-trained/biased prompts creates a user expectation of a character rather than just a pre-loaded knowledge-base.

>India and China have both managed to uplift their economies in the last 30 years without the “discomfort” of violent crime, increasing corruption, the collapse of state institutions and an inability to generate electricity.

India didn't start out with massive amounts of inequality and is still working at building while dealing with a poverty crisis. It isnt close to the finish line.

China, the most successful at transitioning, had inequality comparable to South Africa at one point. That is precisely what Mao targeted when he came to power. Their effort, which involved redistribution of >90% of the land from tiny minority (<10%) ownership, stamping out corruption, and solving domestic production issues; could hardly be described as comfortable.

Foreign powers worked overtime to sabotage the Chinese effort like they have and will continue to do in South Africa as it gets started on this path away from economic apartheid.

The good news is, modern South Africa being a part of BRICS may be useful in reducing inequality more rapidly by employing wisdom gained by other members... but there will still be discomfort.

The history surrounding this kind of scenario is very clear and not as rosey as your description. Luckily SA is not resource poor and its allies are some of the most capable nation builders on the planet.

There are three problems it solves:

1. Upgrading is cheaper than a whole new system. This saves consumers money. Modern laptops increasingly solder parts down, making upgrades nigh-impossible (I've tried multiple times).
Most tech companies have trade-in programs, but with dismal exhange rates. This gives the user more options and control over their hardware.

2. Countering planned obsolence and expensive repair costs associated with modern products.

3. Enabling upcycling, repurposing, and reducing ewaste. There are a fair number of environmentally conscious people in tech and tech-adjacent industries.

For much of my career I fell into the incompetent but nice bucket. It turns out it was/is ADHD. I would be very interested in my new job, but after a few months I'd make no progress, have no outdoor and couldn't really put my finger on why. After multiple such jobs I ended up quite depressed, that certainly doesn't help with productivity.

Unfortunately, ADHD is not temporary. Most places will eventually let you go when you don't perform. The article is extremely generous in stating that firing is not the right choice, but for someone who is severely and permanently impaired I don't really know what the solution is either...
There is no stopping in this.
