Well, yes.. an emergency fund (the bigger the better, but I compromise on keeping at least 1 year's pay) and disaster planning are extremely important regardless of whether or not advanced AI exists.

A plan B that targets the consequences of an advanced AI specifically is more problematic because, if the people who are all excited here see their fantasies come true, then not only are we all screwed, but the hardship will be permanent. I haven't yet worked out how to develop a contingency for that.

And look at all the comments on this very article replying to people who are positing contingency plans: it's almost all ridicule and telling them that their efforts are pointless. So, apparently, lots of people are upset at the very notion that people are considering contingency plans.
Yeah it’s the pattern b all these tools are using.

because zoom and discord has nothing in line with the experience of the anonymous radio signal being tuned in by anonymous listeners. that's the one true thing that separates a OTA broadcast vs even the pirate streaming radio signal i proposed. once it's networked, logs are every where. sure, the broadcaster can turn off logging blah blah, but that's still not the same as tuning in OTA.

social platforms involve invites, permission to join, etc. how that even closely relates is still beyond me and maybe beyond your vaulted abstract thinking skills as well?
Any references for this? I would like to read further.
I don't understand how the hypothesis that they are the same was under consideration. This seems sort of obvious to me that fingernails, antlers, hair, and other keratin growths aren't the same as growing bones and limbs. But I know little about the area -- what am I missing in my hasty, armchair thoughts?
I expect that there are many different ways to answer those questions and that the answers will likely vary for any number of reasons. I also expect that behind most of those answers is a thread that links all of us to some common ground which should serve as the foundation for our belief system and a point where we can all drink from the same cup and resolve to find ways to understand why our answers differ and to accept those valid answers and then work together for things that benefit us all.
I'm sure what you describe happens, but I've used the Paris metro everyday for years and never had any of those things happen to me, nor have I witnessed it happening to others.
This has always felt like a concern that is probably just not worth having for the vast majority of folks. With the test finding at best a 5 watt difference, I don't think I'm changing my prior on this any time soon.
You could have, the creature would just need a pair of zippers that unzip and zip the digestive tract as materials pass through, a bit like RNA polymerase unwinds and rewinds a strand of DNA. The zipper's teeth could act as conduits for the nervous and circulatory systems.
At some point you just have everything you need to survive automated. At that point there is no such thing as profit anymore aside from hookers. The only viable way I see someone hoarding it is because they see themselves as the new god because they were the first to automate the full chain. In that case they will claim humans are bad and try to police them like what we get with every single wingnut idiot these days.

I do, but I assume you don't. That's fine, carry on.
Lex if you're reading this - you have an incredible opportunity to let these people nerd out on all of us. Listening to Marvin Gaye's Detroit remix is where you ask the producer what he hears... there's no expectation you will have something great to say, let your people want to share with you, not just answer.

ChatGPT in particular is trained to predict dialogue and helpful answers to questions, so it would naturally expect some instructions on what exactly it should do. But for example vanilla GPT-3 has no such bias and merely tries to answer the question "what is the most likely completion to this input based on my corpus?" so it might well simply start generating plausible comments that extend the thread.
I checked most solutions and I am sticking with plain old SQL in triple-qoutes in jupyter, e.g. [1]. I don't need auto-completion in SQL and I don't really need syntax highlighting. It's also very nice to have the combination of f-strings/variables substitution and SQL. Yet, my SQL needs are very basic.

mmap is modern? Lol. I used mmap in Java back in 2013 to offheap large matrices in our regression engine. Mmap probably exists long before that.
Edit: and yes, the JVM only reported a few hundreds MBs used in the heap. In reality, the memory mapped file is several GBs in size.

I'm curious about this. How do you reasonably measure input latency on Linux? Do you need hardware support? I am still on X11 with awesome-wm and no compositor, so I don't know much about how well Wayland handles things.
Oh.. I must have missed it. Sorry

But yeah, I totally agree with your points
Vectorisation is done via OpenAI's embedding API. And the chunking/querying is happens through the Langchain library. But there are a few different ways of doing it - another good library is LLamaIndex.

To be honest I haven’t actually worked with any third party libraries that actually supported Pandas directly — most ML libs like Scikit require Numpy arrays (not Pandas dataframes) as inputs so I’ve always had to cast to Numpy from Pandas anyway.

But yes, Polars and DuckDB can easily cast to Pandas and also read Pandas dataframes in memory. I have some legacy data transformations that are mostly DuckDB but involve some intermediate steps in Pandas (because I didn’t want to rewrite them) and it’s all seamless (though not zero copy as it would be in a pure Arrow workflow).

And ironically DuckDB can query Pandas dataframes faster than Pandas itself due to its vectorized engine.
The reason for IEs stagnation wasn’t that Microsoft was trying to hold back the web, it was that their domination was strong enough they didn’t see a need to change. So why would they invest in updating it?

The updates came in plugins tied to the Windows platform: ActiveX. Because that strengthened the monopoly, they were pulling the strings and setting the standards, at their own terms. Tie it to operating system versions, tie it to Office, tie it to the next product they want to promote. Whatever they like.

Can you share a bit more about how open these roles are to remote candidates?

You list office locations and don't say remote, but then imply remote in the first paragraph. Anecdotally I've heard of people being remote on Apple security teams in the Seattle area, but every time I look at roles on jobs.apple.com they all appears as in office only.

I suspect it's more that maintaining a 10+ year testing matrix across three architectures and like 15 product families is pretty un-manageable.

The cross product matrix is already staggering, but imagine testing 10 years of iPhones, 10 years of iPods, however many years of Watch, AirPods, chargers, etc against every Mac released for 10 years - in every configuration? Every time you ship an OS update? Wild.

My Dell XPS shit itself, unbootable while blinking memory error diagnostic codes, a day before I had to make a flight. Dell scheduled service for me the next day when I was meant to be on my flight, so I called them to explain and they sent a tech to my home 3 hours later that afternoon.

On the other hand, an Apple store once took over 3 weeks to order a replacement battery for my macbook air. I never even received an explanation for this incredible incompetence. And when I finally got the battery, the apple store employee made sure to add insult to injury by criticizing my android phone...

It's night and day. My take is that Dell has something to prove while Apple rests on their laurels.

One source I read said that it wasn't a lighter, but a lighter refill cannister. This makes more sense to me than a plain lighter, as a refill cannister stores a good deal more gas than a lighter, and under pressure. This tracks with the way the dryer door bursts open prior to the explosion, seemingly indicating that the cannister lost integrity and releases its compressed contents. The increase in pressure within the dryer causes the door to open, the mixture of gas with oxygen hits the right concentration and boom.
Stata is still big in pharma. There are moves happening to R, but it is a conservative space where businesses do not want to rock the boat too much with the FDA. If nothing else as a Python user, I think the pinning/reproducibility story in R still has quite a ways to go.
This sounds good in theory but might not work in practice. None of them are profitable and depended on Tmall/Taobao for growth. Turning to the public markets would require sacrificing growth for profitability. There might be many other inter dependencies which might turn out costly to unwind.

> The problem is that the Copilot project doesn't claim to be abiding by the license(s) of the ingested code. The reply to licensing concerns was that licensing doesn't apply to their use.

I think github is largely correct in their view on licenses. However I would argue that you could create a stronger legal binding than say a GPL-3 license. For instance you could require and enforce that anyone that wishes to read the repo must sign a legal contract or EULA: "By decrypting this git repo you are agreeing to the following licenses, restrictions, contractual obligations, ..."
My graphing calculator is big-endian
Personal example: my primary care physician scheduled me for a physical, including picking the date, without even asking. It just showed up on my online chart. Okay, I hadn't had a physical for a while, so I just went with it. While stopped at an intersection on the way to his office, a woman plowed into me and 2 other cars because she wasn't paying attention, and was likely on her phone. That wreck generated $45K of medical bills for me and a 21-month settlement process.

Onward and upward: I did eventually do a physical, after getting over the wreck. My blood work came back with crazy liver enzyme numbers, 4-9x higher than they should have been. My Dr thought I might have hepatitis and ordered a full hep screen. Before doing that, I did some research, and ran across a NIH paper saying "Hey, before you enroll anyone into drug trials, make sure they aren't working out regularly, because that causes hugely elevated liver enzymes and throws off the trial." Hmm... I mentioned this to my Dr and he said no, that's not it, but maybe get off your protein shakes 2 weeks before the blood test. I read about that, and protein shakes don't affect the liver enzymes. So I decided to stop workouts for 2 weeks AND stop protein shakes. Took the blood test and my liver values were completely normal, and negative for hepatitis.

While they may have good intentions, doctors don't always know or understand what they're looking at. I think I could have easily ended up with a liver biopsy had I not stopped my workouts before the 2nd blood test.

Perhaps all that counts for you but all I'm getting from it is "stuff happens" and you're picking up patterns which may or may not be there, and if they are then so what. It sounds very typical of 70s films. However I have read Stanislaw Lemand respect him so I'm working up the courage to try and watch it sometime. Trouble is I know I'm going to be bored crapless and wish I hadn't.

If anyone can convince me I'm wrong I'd like that.
Yes, makes sense. And is great. Though honestly not sure why it takes minutes to load a 23Gb model in RAM, I feel is not proportional with the smaller models.

The syscall was described in 4.2-4.3BSD in the 80s and shipped in 4.3BSD-Reno in 1990. The underlying concept of memory-mapped files dates back to at least the 70s. So all of this to say -- I agree, it's not especially new.

This isn't as nefarious as everyone makes it out to be. There are articles that state Meta has hard data that people who start as Remote workers at Meta significantly underperform those that don't. In light of that data, they're pausing the experiment and working to understand what the data is saying.
Not sure if it's got a "law," but the reasoning seems intuitive: 1. More complex products are usually better, but being more complicated means they're harder to explain to the average customer and makes them harder to sell. 2. More widely known products get that way by stripping money out of the budget for their product to put it into advertising instead. Less money in the product means it's potentially inferior to a product that put their whole budget into development.

We thought we knew what AI-complete tasks were because we couldn't yet imagine what a non-AGI that could complete the tasks would look like. Now we have a great counter example to point to.

Friendly Captcha | Software Engineer (Full-stack) | REMOTE within EU | PART-TIME or FULL-TIME | Office in Munich, Germany | https://friendlycaptcha.com

At Friendly Captcha we do one thing and we do it well: we protect websites from malicious actors and bots. We provide privacy-friendly and accessible anti-bot solutions that don’t annoy users with tasks like clicking fire hydrants.

We’re a fast-growing, profitable company. Our revenue mostly comes from medium to large European enterprise and governments.

A great fit would be someone who can contribute across the entire stack, and prefers to keep things simple (perhaps boring is the right word even?). Good knowledge of the web and browser APIs is definitely useful in this role. At our scale we are looking for generalists more than specialists - it's inevitable you will be wearing different hats.

Our engineering team is fully remote across Europe, we meet up once per quarter or so. You can work either 4 or 5 days per week, fully remote or from our Munich office.

You should check out https://ponder.io .

It is created by the folks who made Mondin (a scale out version of Pandas with API compatibility as a goal). Can use dask or ray as a backend.

Ponder is the enterprise version that runs on Snowflake and BigQuery. Again, same goal, API compatibility with Pandas. You can scale out your Pandas workflow by changing the import and leaving the Pandas code.

(Full disclosure I'm an advisor.)
It did somewhat reduce the total memory used. Now you can load the 30B model while only using ~20gb of RAM, which is about the aggregate size of the 4bit quantized weight files for that model. The real win is that you can kill the main inference binary and try another prompt, and it will start doing inference basically immediately instead of spending 10-15 seconds loading up all the weights into RAM each time.

He's wrong, of course. Perhaps I am biased because I am quite asocial, but squandering the full possibilities of AR to focus on social stuff is myopic.

Instead, AR should be about empowering the individual. I have no desire for "zoom, but heads-up".

What I want is heads-up walking directions in an unfamiliar city. I want annotations of plant and animal species as I walk around the park. I want IKEA assembly instructions that make sense in 3D. I want to look up and know where any particular plane is coming from and going to. I want to know where the last time I saw that car with that license plate was. I want to leave cute messages around the house for my wife that are triggered by environmental cues (a heart in her coffee cup when she makes her morning latte, etc). I want to cross reference my grocery list with the store layout and plan the best path to get my shopping done. I want to blur out the advertisements and idiots around me. I want interactive virtual christmas decorations that I don't have to pack away...
