I am not a lawyer, but I don’t think that affects the copyright or license of works created with the broken-term software. For example, wouldn’t you still own the copyright to a brochure you made with pirated Photoshop, or a photo you took with a DJI drone while flying out of sight?

(All of which may be moot if models can’t be copyrighted because they’re machine-generated.)
The claim on its face was never in dispute.

The primary focus of the discussion has been on the potential influence of the Smith-Mundt Act on one's opinions and understanding of the issue at hand.

Engaging in a deeper analysis provides a more stimulating conversation, as opposed to simply expressing superficial agreement or disagreement, which isn't thought-provoking or worth commentary in the slightest.

Are you saying there are engineers sitting behind their laptops who upvote the "bathroom destruction" trend in some kind of global dashboard? You sound very certain about the degree of control they have over recommendation systems.
Weirdly, this also happens when preordering food on the Alaska airlines app. Maybe that's just a web view as well.

The flimsy plastic case your laptop came in is no better or worse. People need something to complain about.

Most of the shielding is done with metal lids/cans on the board already.

Not to mention I'm unsure what the original complaint even was - the Framework laptop has a lengthy list of certifications, including ones from the FCC[1].

Keep in mind that the minimum number of working hours to qualify for those benefits is 20hrs/wk, and getting that isn't a guarantee. (Anecdotally - I had ~30hrs of availability and I wouldn't get scheduled for more than 12hrs most weeks, and my coworkers were in similar spots.) A union, ideally, would ensure that benefits like your health insurance can't be taken from you because the company won't let you work long enough to qualify for it.

Fair points! Thanks for sharing that :)
There is the Chinese saying of 刑不可知，则威不可测。
async (the keyword) is doing fantastic because it’s better than all of the available alternatives. Those alternatives:

- ad hoc callbacks, which had a great Result-ish type signature but really do warrant the “hell” in “callback hell”

- Promise APIs, which are semantically equivalent to async the keyword, unless you care about call stacks, and have a lot of the same hellish problems as the ad hoc callbacks they were meant to address (less nesting! same everything else!)

- Um fibers? Good luck making sense out of whatever that’s doing. It’s a good idea, but it’s also all opaque magic when you try using it.

- Actual threads and child processes… there are valid use cases, and they’re worth pursuing if you have a valid use case, but the facilities for development with them are basically “here’s a bunch of low level concepts that closely mirror their system level counterparts, hope you know/figure out what you’re doing!”
Oh! I think I understand.

So your software takes a prompt from me, does non-GPT work to find additional context from your source (the books, parsed and re-structured into word vectors or whatnot), and then asks GPT my prompt combined with the added context?

Like,

“What are the three foobars when considering these passages from a book <…> ?”

There's a similar situation in the West where very capable talent don't want promotions because the expectations are too great for the increased amount of money / pain. At some point, it's better to sort-of coast at a lower level, work on side-projects intending to turn them into a viable startup.

4/Apple does not coerce you to say things even if they are false.

5/Apple does not torture -- sorry, I mean "re-educate" -- Muslims.

Most polygamous societies were still predominantly monogamous - the majority of men had only one wife, multiple wives was generally something reserved for the wealthy elite. For example, even at the height of Mormon polygamy in Utah, only 15-20% of Mormon families were polygamous, the other 80%+ of Mormons (mostly) believed in it but didn’t practice it.

I think the argument is that putting constraints on individual sexual freedom promotes social stability in the long-run; the existence of constraints is more important than their precise details.
Looks like the author is making a claim and backing it by their opinion instead of facts.
Things aren't really that bad for most Americans, but even if they were, it doesn't follow that adding more intelligence to the world would be a bad thing for them.

A lot of people in the lower income brackets do the kind of work that an AI can't do. The people who should be worried most are actually college graduates doing clerical work, whose main work output is writing or evaluating texts. Even those people will likely use AI as a tool to enhance their productivity, because the AIs still are not good enough to replace people for tricky edge cases. The first companies that try to replace their customer support workers with an AI are going to have a bad time (and so are their customers!).

When almost everything can be automated, the problems that remain are the really hard ones that can only be solved by human experts.

A construction worker with a circular saw can cut boards way faster than someone with a handsaw -- but the introduction of circular saws didn't result in a bunch of carpenters getting laid off. Instead it made them more productive, and for people who get paid by the task rather than by the hour that is a huge benefit. They could build more and make more money, and a bunch of other people benefitted from their increased output, like homebuyers and property developers.

Similarly, as a software engineer I benefit from code generation tooling already. If that gets smarter and faster, I will be more productive, my team will be able to build software faster, and instead of laying people off I will expect to be given more work. Maybe our 4-year roadmap will be achievable in 1 or 2 years with the same size team.

Isn't this a standard trade-off? I have a sedan rather than a SUV or a pickup, and last year when I wanted to move some large items I couldn't. That's fine, because the other 99.5% of days I don't need that much capacity. Unless you frequently need to go on 200 mile trips on a whim, it's not as big of a dealbreaker than you think.

People in China also interact more closely with animals, and with a wider variety, than in the West. The West does not have any wet markets or nor the wide variety of species available for consumption. This helps in the virus jumping species. Once it jumps, the population density helps it spread.

No – even that DOE report gave it a low probability ranking. It’s perfect for conspiracy mongers because you can’t completely rule out the possibility but the evidence has pretty consistently pointed at a non-lab jump, possibly in the wet market, and that’s not surprising since it’s a common scenario scientists have been warning about for decades.

> it's particularly tough for marginalized youths to get started and work their way out of the underclass.

Yes, this is the point I always want to emphasize. Policies like this always favor those already inside (the existing workers being protected by tough-to-fire laws) at the expense of those looking inside from the outside (the newly-grads and members of marginalized groups trying to get started). I similarly disfavor minimum wage laws.
The point is this is just a shot across the bow.

It wouldn't be ideal for a one-car family, but as a commuter it's better and cheaper.

LLMs on defense too.

Also, the filters on the commercial services attempting to prevent misuse.

Anything useful that gets past the filters and is used to cause damage leaves behind the prompts and user account info to be subpoenaed, though it could take a while for law enforcement to come up to speed.

>or were banned (Twitter)

So companies that refuse to build tools for compliance with China's unique censorship/control policies are not allowed in the country. Most American tech companies opted to leave voluntarily rather than implement these controls, and at least one that did not implement the controls or voluntarily leave was instead forcibly banned.

I see the point you're making here, but at the same time, I think the situation as explained here can still be viewed as China not allowing American tech companies to operate in China the way those companies want to do business.

Has the US provided ByteDance with an opportunity to become compliant with this country's requirements that it has opted against? That would seem very similar to what transpired with Twitter in China.

Late to the comments here, but I was literally the first guy to use this program when Iceland unveiled it in 2021. I moved there in January 2021, and lived there for 9 months. I was interviewed by the NY Times and NBC about it.

I see a lot of people saying Iceland is expensive - well, if you're coming from California, it's not that bad. I'd say it's comparable, aside from the gas/diesel prices.

If you have any questions about the process or living in Iceland, I'd be glad to help. Email's on my profile.

We investigated but the general vibe is that it just isn’t there yet, and it isn’t even moving in the direction to get there. It really needs support from the Rails project, and the rails leadership had indicated it isn’t going to happen.

If you have a pure ruby project and use it from day one, it probably works. But if you are starting a brand new project, just save yourself the pain and use TS.

Saying that the CCP is in control due to board seats is a bad reason. China gives CCP membership to the top students in schools, and most people try and join the CCP if they can. The people that make up the tops of companies are most likely to be CCP members because of the fact that highly driven people are most likely to be in or join the CCP. Yes the Chinese government has a lot of control, but members of the CCP being on the board is nonsense. It is extra nonsense when you consider how many US companies have government members on the board. Condoleezza Rice is a board member of Dropbox for example.

This defeats the purpose of having time zones at all. People generally prefer the sun near overhead at noon; otherwise we would all just set our clocks to UTC no matter where we are. It would certainly make programmers' lives easier ;-)

The author is right we know almost nothing about the design and training of GPT-4.

From the technical report https://cdn.openai.com/papers/gpt-4.pdf : "Given both the competitive landscape and the safety implications of large-scale models like GPT-4, this report contains no further details about the architecture (including model size), hardware, training compute, dataset construction, training method, or similar."
