This isn't unique to WhatsApp/Meta though. Many banks require a smartphone running unrooted Android or iOS. Visa/Mastercard(and AMEX I guess) have a polyopoly(?) on cashless transactions, and have done for my entire life. Many government services here in the UK are provided by private corporations, and have been for a very long time.

Another way of thinking of it is that the value that Meta/Mastercard/Virgin/other companies that fit that description provide is so substantial that they have become intertwined with society.

The reality is likely somewhere in the middle IMO

They are talking about "Warren v. District of Columbia" court case.

To quote from wikipedia: "Warren v. District of Columbia[1] (444 A.2d. 1, D.C. Ct. of Ap. 1981) is a District of Columbia Court of Appeals case that held that the police do not owe a specific duty to provide police services to specific citizens based on the public duty doctrine."

It kinda means (very loosely): If you call the police to help you, but they don't show up, tough luck. You can't sue them over that.

I'm not really sure what "unknown knowns"/"untrusted knowns" are (or how switching the order of the words is significantly different in this particular context).

If I'm using a piece of software from Alice, & Mallory is using a supply-chain attack to compromise that software, I have chosen to trust Alice without knowing who Alice has chosen to trust (unquantified risk). An SBOM tells me that Alice has chosen to trust Mallory - it doesn't necessarily tell me whether Mallory should be trusted, but it allows the risk associated with trusting Alice to be better quantified.

The next (out-of-band) step is actively engaging with & trust Mallory (or not).

I see it two ways. Social media as it is has become deeply problematic. I see both Twitter trying a paid business model and people leaving Twitter for something else both being "green shoots".

If Musk can refashion Twitter into something other than it was and make it profitable I am all for that. I think it's fundamentally a bad thing that a small number of commercial enterprises claim to run a "global town square" and I'd much rather see thousands of smaller entities. If I am up in arms about something it is

I'd rather talk about games (or photography, or ...) on a dedicated forum rather than be in another toxic subreddit or toxic discord (had more than one of those get declared a hate group) or other toxic social media platform.

If I had one problem w/ the new Blue it is the pricing, not that it is "too high" or "too low" but rather like many SaaS they just seemed to pick a number out of a hat without consideration of either (a) what value the subscriber gets or (b) what does it cost to provide the service. (I not just complained about other people's pricing but I have "been there and done that" struggling to set prices.)

Specifically, The New York Times has had a hissy fit about refusing to pay $8 a month which is a bit ridiculous not because it is a high number or a non-zero number but rather in that so far as the NYT gets some value out of participating in Twitter is is more like $8000 a month or $80,000 a month and the $8 has no connection to reality for them.

There are numerous ways that the NYT's own subscription and paywall service is problematic (newsmax is free, NYT's paywall is a decision to impoverish the "town square", journalists are being judged on the clickbaitability of their stories, the real money-maker at the Times today is the editorial page where people like David Brooks can talk about the way things are "spozed" to be out of their ass and not have to do any real journalism that cost money or ruffle feathers... or just trying cancelling your NYT subscription for an education in dark patterns, then the NYT had the nerve to run an expose on dark patterns...) The least you can do to avoid challenges to your own legitimacy is not challenge the legitimacy of others.

The NYT might have a better case that it is providing value to Twitter for providing content and giving people something to have mindless, knee-jerk discussions about which would point to a model where maybe Twitter should try to make money off people reading Twitter as opposed to posting to Twitter but there too there is the split between people and organizations that are contributing content vs those who are just promoting themselves (if I were going to make a Twitter account again it would only be to spam links.)

Hmm, but if I'm reading this code correctly, it's also correct if the text of the correct answer appears anywhere in the output. Even if other incorrect answers also appear.

https://github.com/manyoso/haltt4llm/blob/main/take_test.py#...

So the above answer would have been correct were it not for the fact that it said "doubled its" rather than "double it".

Without seeing the log of answers marked correct, I'm skeptical that GPT4All, which seems to produce rambling prose for all of its incorrect answers, is actually picking one of the multiple choice options the rest of the time. It seems like a model could get 100% 'correct' just by repeating back all five options.
> That's right and then they go and find stuff that is not appropriate.

But most kids don't manage to do that for some time. School libraries (typically) don't have porn in them, and internet access is often supervised or limited.

That is very reasonable take, especially given how insane ChatGPT can be.

Humor is a very sophisticated form of communication. Think of how much was said in so few words, by just poking at shared common knowledge.
Okay, let's change my statement to: many technical people (or just people with jobs in general) say that AI won't come for our jobs, using words like "n/ever" as you have done, that "that's just not something machines will be able to do themselves. Ever. No machine will be able to say 'this is the most emotionally impactful texture and drape for that superhero's cape in this scene.'". My point is not on non-technical people particularly, it's on the latter part of my statement, that people in general think that they are somehow special and will be in for quite a rude surprise when AI and automation eventually does do what they thought was was only in the realm of mere humans. People in general underestimate the end to end automation that will occur. You do too, seeing as you've said what I've quoted above. You say AI is heavily used, great, but don't be surprised when AI is so heavily used that it becomes the only thing used, eventually.
I wish I could point at my repositories and have it review and criticize my code and suggest improvements.

In my experience, Algebraic types alone take some work to get used to using competently. That's just one F# uniqueness and there are others. Learning Elm (a similar language) definitely made me a better engineer, but I really don't think learning F# is the same as learning Python for someone with experience with imperative/OO languages.

I think the reason it sometimes seems like it is that easy is that, as we gain experience with tools, we tend to forget the difficulties we had learning them.

I agree, I avoided saying that in my original comment to avoid nit picking. The depth of knowledge is incredible. It’ll just make junior level mistakes while writing senior level code.

Steam has an incentive to make sure that the rebuild effort for their games is very low.

One way they could do that is require game developers to upload source code to some source code repo (perhaps a 'code holding company', whose expertise is looking after source code). Code in the repo could be built automatically, ensuring that at any time a hotfix could be made with little friction. When publishers upload to steam, they are also giving the right for steam to make bugfixes if the original developer wont/cant.

when it said "our electric grid is nowhere near where it needs to be to remotely support a large shift to EVs"

without specifying further detail (like "we need more chargers connected to that grid"), the reasonable interpretation is that the grid itself, meaning the means of delivering power to power users (including any installed chargers), has deficiencies preventing it from doing so
Supernovae are pretty much spherical, despite what fanciful artist representations might have implied, and even if their dust clouds aren't. I'm actually not sure where the shapes of supernova nebulas come from, but I bet it's a combination of very small deviations from sphericity and interactions with surrounding gas. Quasars just aren't explosions, they're a continuous emission of energy from matter going inwards towards a black hole.

Saturn can't explode, not even the spherical part, which is just hydrogen that's already too small for fusion. The only non-spherical part is just a kajillion tiny chunks of ice, and they total a tiny fraction of Saturn's mass. If they affected the shape of an explosion, they would slow it down around the equator, not expand it into a disk. But more likely they would just be annihilated. Any amount of energy big enough to destroy Saturn won't even notice some dust in the way, which is kind of why most explosions are spherical: not much can stop it in any direction (besides which most things in space start out spherical anyway).
My guess is, that the global transparency about products and designs provided by the modern internet accelerated this convergence.
> If you give [GPT-4] too broad of a problem to solve, it can get lost and forget things.

This is what I struggle with at the moment. All these pairing examples seem too start with "build me something from scratch" but in the real world 99% of my challenges are existing, large, complicated applications.

I'm curious if anyone has seen examples on pairing with GPT for existing apps and how they "compress the context," so to speak, to provide enough background on the project that fits within the context limitation and still provides useful results.

In economics this is called "createtive destruction" [0]. Basically it's the freedom of messing up someone else's business by creating something better. Think e-mail destroying most jobs for mail delivery or digital photos destroying photo development shops.

One of the hallmarks of lesser developed economies is that they do not allow these kind of things. What happens in stead is that the people that have a lot to lose will use their political power to stop the innovation from happening.

The more common practise this is in a country, the less developed the economy is usually. Because this partly destroys the incentive to innovate.

So basically a lot of powerful people in Italy are pretty scared for their jobs / income because of the rapid innovation in Large Language Models.

Fine-insured bounties 'fixes' this.
