In the “single person handling all power” sense, I'd say so at least for most of Mao's reign.

Political struggles where commonplace during most of the Mao era, and it wasn't until the end of his reign (in 1969, amidst the cultural revolution) that Mao
came to gain complete power over the central committee. (And by that time, he had done most of its harm already)

Two of the most historically important event of the period even happened after Mao lost a power struggle and was trying to get back on his foot: the great march and the cultural revolution.
I'm not excusing NATO, I'm just explaining what happened. Putin fanboys love to pretend that NATO is aggressively expansionist, but it's not. Most of eastern Europe begged to join NATO, to the point that Poland practically blackmailed Clinton into letting them join (which Clinton originally wasn't a fan of).

NATO extended its mutual defense to these countries. The only reason why that should piss off Russia is if Russia had plans to conquer those countries. Turns out they do. But that's not NATO's fault. Don't try to shift the blame to NATO here; this war is entirely, for the full 100%, Putin's fault.

With the classic double slit experiment both space coordinates affect each other. With this time axis double slit experiment one has to ask if t1 affects t2 or if t2 also affects t1. The latter would raise a lot of questions. I don't understand the paper well enough to know which of these cases they are observing but I assume only the t1->t2 case? I'd appreciate if someone with more domain knowledge could enlighten.

Edit: after more thought I guess it would make sense that two slits after each other in time show a change in wavelength if they are brought close enough together.

Essentially the time separated slits act like a space separated double slit experiment wherin the slits are oriented on an axis parallel to the direction of the light path instead of at a perpendicular one. The wave like nature does not just expand in one dimension in space but all three and so there must be interference in the direction of travel. Do I have the right idea with this?
That quote from Schnee seems odd to me. I mean, what do you get if you try to decompile the binary? That output should be more useful than "a database of every phoneme it had ever uttered".

And, as someone else pointed out in this thread, there exists an ISO and an activation code at archive.org, and it should be possible to get this running in Wine or in a VM. Someone clever could probably patch the binary to make it run on modern Windows. The distraught rabbis should community-source a developer.

All of that said, even if the source code were to be found, it seems likely that further development of the core functionality might be dead. This was a man's life's work in an esoteric domain; it might not exactly be accessible code.

This is absolutely maddening to read. Open source the software for christ's sake! *I* will recompile it to run on macOS Catalina or Windows 11. It's not that hard. Just get it on GitHub!

Or heck, give me a precompiled binary and I'll give you a docker script that runs it in virtualization on any computer.

EDIT: Ok I finished the article. I guess the source code is gone. But surely there is a binary floating around somewhere? I could get it running under Wine, or worst-case decompile and fix the program.

It’s common for airports to allow liquids for babies/toddlers. Just take them out of the bag and put them in a padded box normally. No 100ml limit either- have taken regular water bottles through too (for milk formula).

Various airports have different rules.

Dubai was quite lax, you don’t have to take anything out of bags. Maybe they have the new scanners already.

Singapore was more strict, and they do the security check just before the gate which I hated because things like soft drinks etc purchased in duty free had to be consumed before going through (but again, no problem with baby liquids).
Cloudflare is bad for the web by now. There is way too much in their hands as well. I observe the same as you, infinite loops, that make me leave the sites where it happens. Probably many others experience the same, but the website owner will never know, because they put the blindfolds on.

Unfortunately it is hard to suggest alternatives. But maybe HN has some ideas how to self host something effective to avoid having to use something like Cloudflare?

I swear by my Corsair Void Pro headset. I have recommended it endlessly and everyone is extremely happy. Good price (less than $100 usually), great battery, great sound, the mic mutes itself if you flip it up...
Best thing is that they are quite hackable, and when the battery life starts decreasing you can just change it for a bigger LiPo and be done with it.
Technically correct, and I even have couple of VMs to play around from time to time, but daily driver is WSL/WSL2 in my case - interop makes things different and GPU based workloads without passing any device are deal-breaker for some people too.
Should this be concerning?
IBM i (formerly known as AS/400) has two types of pointers, fat 128-bit pointers and thin pointers (which are either 32-bit or 64-bit, depending on the addressing mode). The 128-bit pointers contain embedded information on the type of the object they point to, and security capabilities for accessing it – there are actually several different types of fat pointers, which constrain which type of object they point to, but there is a generic pointer type ("open pointer") which can contain any other type of pointer, and hence point to anything. By contrast, the thin pointers are just memory addresses. IBM's C compiler defines extension keywords to declare if a given pointer type is fat or thin. However, they chose to define size_t, ptrdiff_t, etc, in terms of the thin pointers only. So, even this isn't a case of what you are looking for. But, if IBM had made some slightly different choices (permitted by the standard) in the design of their C compiler, it would have been. Also, back in the late 1980s / early 1990s there was at least one third party C compiler for the AS/400 (and its System/38 predecessor), and I'm not sure what choices that compiler made.

If people are looking for examples, I'm wondering about C compilers for Burroughs Large Systems. Or C compilers for Lisp machines (Symbolics had one). Those are the kind of weird architectures on which you'd do this, if anyone ever did. Indeed, it is rather obvious that the C standards committee gave compiler developers these unusual options with those weird architectures in mind. But it can't force them to make use of them, even if they are on a platform in which they might make sense.
I'm looking at his actions, rather than believing the words of a liar.

Just before the war, he said he was not going to invade. Then he did it anyway. His words are meaningless. His actions are what counts. And he obviously did try to take Kyiv. There were paradrops intended to take Kyiv in hours, even. There was a push by more forces to take Kyiv in days. It all failed because they encountered far more serious resistance than they expected, and it turned out they lacked the supplies for a longer operation, and couldn't get those supplies organised in the face Ukrainian defense specifically targeting Russian supply lines. Eventually they couldn't make any progress and withdrew. Though not before murdering lots of civilians in Boucha.
good catch. wish there was an easy way to weed these out.

This doctrine is called 'linguistic determinism', for those curious: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_determinism

I don't think it's well-supported but it seems to intuitively appeal to a lot of people.
A couple of years ago I spoke to my near-phd biochem friend and discussed this problem with him at length.
I have since come to believe that what science needs is a git of science.
Aka, a scientific way to build science over from scratch and explore different approaches and research in a version control kind of way.
A property of science is that existing research should be immutable, so you can see the natural progression over time, so for this I thought a blockchain seemed a good fit.
Scientists do research and peer review each other in exchange for a token.
Other scientists can then easily access and improve/build on existing science, with no journal incentives required to keep academics afloat.
And yes I am aware safeguards will need to be put in place to prevent gaming the system, but using AI, it should be relatively easy to actually capture the entire history of science on the chain and verify the knowledge.
I'd love to see recumbent e-trikes with lights, turn signals, and sufficient composite cover to be a viable commute option regardless of rain or freezing temperature. With assisted pedalling it should be possible to maintain comfortable temperature for a good while if the insulation is done right.

"Gun violence is the leading cause of death between 1 and 19 years of age" So why did the study chose such a specific age range?

Cut it off at 18 and it wouldn't work, since it would exclude gang violence. Start it at birth and it also wouldn't work, since the statistic would include infant mortality. Unfortunately, that would debunk the fact that gun violence is a widespread problem in the US, rather than something that's happening exclusively in a few poorly run municipalities with excessive levels of poverty, violence, and organized crime.
In weird ways, it can be in the "legally" camp...

There will be offices where the uniform or dress code is mandated by law, and the number of pockets will be whatever the uniform designer decided it would be. It's not specific to women per se, but there will probably be some differences in the design of both uniforms.

Basically that would be the social norms getting burned into legal requirements, until the uniforms are redone.

Thanks everyone! :)
> Everything I see in dogs suggests that they are sentient, they just don’t seem to need language. They speak when it is useful, like for getting attention from people in different rooms, but they don’t really need it beyond that. So they don’t go any further.

If you haven't check out whataboutbunny [1] on Instagram to get an indication of how far dogs can go when given an opportunity. Bunny is trained to use buttons to "speak". A lot of it is very simple and functional ("outside", "play") that could easily be handled by body language and the odd bark, but occasionally you get fairly complex conversations which seems to indicate introspection and fairly complex reasoning that as you say they "just don't seem to need" to be able to express in language in normal conditions.

Perhaps these papers are also just coincidence. This field is so new and this type of reasoned completion chaining seems like it was an inevitability. I imagine many other active gpt products that got started early hand rolled similar systems.
Do you know what is the way to find models compatible with oobabooga/text-generation-webui ? I downloaded one with the included script and that worked, but if I try different ones it seems there are so many formats so no idea say how do I search huggingface or google to find the correct format.

It's not about directly regurgitating the training set, but about creating associations that allow it to indirectly regurgitate, and more critically - mix, its training set. It's easier to understand this in a different domain. Imagine we want to make a letter parsing algorithm.

The first step is to simplify the input and create a consistent format. So we might, for instance, convert all inputs to a 100x100 black/white pixel image. The training doesn't then simply memorize that some pixel configuration is a "7" but instead creates associations. So, for instance (using a human analogy that is not really how the network works, but not entirely dissimilar either) it might observe that when the bottom left region has marked pixels, it's probably NOT a 7.

Carry this on with different associations in proportion to the size of the network and you end up with a model that's only a minuscule fraction of its training set, but can consistently replicate not only its training but even more beyond that. Now change those 10,000 input pixels to words instead of pixels, with the target output being a word instead of a letter, and you get ChatGPT. It's the whole magic of neural networks, and really neat. But I think also paired with not really justifiable hyperbole.
That's actually very easy to control. Just pay a high transaction fee. The nonce comes from a PRNG that doesn't have to pass many randomness checks. Your proposal really is no more random than a counter based SHA256 PRNG except with an awfully high sample latency.

In Sweden you can get government support when buying E-Bikes, 25% of up to 1000 euro. Some smaller electric scooters falls under the same category. E-Bikes are still rather expensive though.

But, and there are buts, E-Bikes are heavy so you can't bring them up home, on the other hand they are more prone to theft due to their price. E-Bikes can also be more dangerous compared to other alternatives, some models use standard bikes equipped with an added motor- those are not stable and have sub standard brakes. The better quality ones are better but they allow untrained people to reach speeds they were not trained for, sometimes without proper safety equipment.
Similar case here - I've fallen into a personal rule of thumb: that if I'm after information that I can't easily verify or isn't on the tip of my tongue I'm likely to fall back to Google Search.

This is either out of pure habit or an actual flaw in LLM's that in reality I'm not "surfing the internet", instead I'm "surfing the LLM" and I know this so eventually I'll hit an answer that's wrong (but the LLM has high confidence) and it's worth the extra couple of seconds on Google.

I just want to second the recommendation for the board game meetup. Those can be a lot of fun, and a good way get out of the house and socialize. It's also good to bring your own favorite game in case the selection there isn't to your liking; you might find others who love your game but never tried it.
What makes these brands leading in your opinion? From a tech and design perspective I get the appeal that VanMoof and Cowboy have, I've wanted one for years because of that. But in doing research I've also read a tonne of horror stories about random failures and reliability issues where repairs mean shipping it back to Cowboy/VanMoof, waiting weeks or months and then getting your bike back only to do it all over again a short while later.

For a bike the traditional brands that use of the shelf parts like Bosch and Shimano still have the advantage in my opinion, especially if you don't live close to a dealer/repairshop that can handle it.

Edit: What's also putting me of from both VanMoof and Cowboy is their rocky financial history. Last month Cowboy secured funding, but it was looking sketchy for a bit. I wonder what would happen to all those cloud features from Cowboy if the company goes under.
As someone who has previously hacked Classic MacOS CodeWarrior to build apps for BeOS and started porting Retro68 to also build BeOS PEF exes, this is pretty cool! I wonder if this could also build Rust for BeOS too?
Dude, someone wrote a blog post about how they wanted to set up a machine for their son because, I quote his post (which was a fun read), "I want him to be able to dig deeper. To explore. To try things out, misconfigure, crash, fix, and re-install."

I pointed out that Linux was the perfect OS for this and your reply was that you hate using Linux on your corporate job because you have to do all those things. I mean fine you can hate it, it's not right for your job, OK. But in addition to being negative, you were off-topic. It spawned a bunch of guys debating the merits of Linux in a corporate office which is not the freaking topic of the blog post and to the extent you want to rattle on about it, you're arguing with a straw man. It shouldn't be a huge surprise you got flak. Sorry if this comes across as elitist but in the context of what this post was about I don't really care that Linux sucks in your office, I did not suggest you should use it there.

What Linux won't do is shove mass shootings and Tiktok ads down his son's throat. Again I quote the post: "What the actual fuck? That kid is 10, and TikTok is one of the things I am actively trying to prevent from getting into his world as long as possible." I maintain: Linux sounds great for this guy and his son.
E-bikes are great. I rode one to the office today, and when the weather is nice I consider my e-bike commute to be one the highlights of my day. There are a few things I disagree with in this article, though.

> “An e-bike is a car trip replacer,” Cherry said, “but an e-cargo bike is a car replacer. An e-cargo bike offers a chance to do just about anything that most Americans need a car to do, like school runs, grocery runs, and so on.”

I don't really agree with this. Cars are faster, can go further, they haul more, and they are comfortable to ride in any weather conditions. While I think that some people could make do with an e-bike instead of a car (or maybe one less car for a family), replacing a car with an e-bike would require a lot of sacrifices that I don't see the averge American being willing to make.

And in my case, as someone who enjoys riding a bike and is even willing to do it in the rain, I don't see it as replacing a car trip but rather a bus trip. For the three months of the year when it snows and it's not safe/possible to ride a bike to the office, I ride a bus instead (I would prefer to drive my car, but parking is too expensive/inconvenient).

> Even more baffling, Congress chose to make any e-bike costing over $4,000 ineligible for a credit, eliminating almost all e-cargo bikes.

A quick google search turns up lots of cargo e-bikes for less than $4,000. [1]

> And even with the motor providing some of the muscle, the cyclist will receive a surprisingly good workout.

I wouldn't really call it a "workout". I find it to be about the same amount of exertion as walking (at a fairly leisurely pace). So definitely better than driving, and for sedentary people it might provide some meaningful benefit. But I have actually been considering switching to a regular bike for commuting just for the added exercise.
