> That’s when you perform a pointless ritual to convey the feeling of security.

That's exactly what going through the security checkpoint at the airport is. A pointless ritual to convey the feeling of security.

Yes, arbitrary liquid thresholds and similar rules are more about giving airport security tools to remind travelers "who is charge", but it's all part of security theater at a more meta level.
Interesting idea, I have the same problem with cold hands. I currently wear finger-less wool gloves but it isn't a perfect solution either.
The Maidan revolution spreading to Moscow is surely a nightmare scenario for Putin.

I doubt that, unless Putin is completely delusional. The guy has, at best, almost no time left before he either dies, due to age, or dies, due to age/decline + the perception of weakness, and therefore assassination.

If Putin is still running Russia in 6 months I'll be surprised, and if in 2 years, astonished.

I guess maybe he was concerned a decade ago, but he's all short term thought now.

It's likely why the whole Ukraine thing seems a bit nutty, but if you know you have a very short time, and you think you're the only guy to do something, caution to the wind!

IMO, this is what makes Putin dangerous. He knows he is checking out.

Really gotta give it to their foreign policy for pushing something through that has been nearly 80 years in the making
I don't remember the last time I've printed anything at work, apart from my notice.
During the time period that NATO existed, the USSR invaded Czechoslovakia and Hungary. Expanding back a few years before the creation of NATO (which I'd argue is a reasonable allowance because a a defensive pact it was formed directly in response to some of these events), you can also include the invasions of Poland and the Baltic states

> Since 1975, seatbelts are credited with saving hundreds of thousands of lives.

It is much easier to attribute outcome of a car accident to presence or absence of seat-belts. It is much harder to determine why a certain car ended up in the path of an active hurricane or twister. So yes, comparing seat-belts to AM radios is somewhat of a stretch, indeed. But if you heed FIMA recommendations and warnings they always tell you to have AM radio handy to receive important and potentially life-saving information. You are encouraged to have battery powered AM radio at home. And if you are in the car it is no-brainier to have AM radio, preferably already built-in.
I don't disagree with any of that. The GP said they didn't understand why people would be afraid of AI art. The reason is that many people pay rent by producing art, and that will no longer be possible for many of them in an age of (good) AI art
All of those may help (and arguably, European birthrates would be much worse if they didn't have them) but I don't think they're alone enough to turn around the zeitgeist of the country as a whole.

The two main hurdles to increasing birthrate are:

1. Convince couples with no kids to have one.
2. Convince couples with two/three kids to have one more.

The list might help but the question is how much for each.

If you're asking me then honestly yes I find it very weird that these issues are ignired by men. I get you that you're not hearing this brought up by the women around you but are you giving them the vibes that you'd be receptive to this conversation?

You can see it all over this thread, "but there's a free market," "women are just more focused on aesthetics," even angry responses like "how dare you try to change society."

It can be extremely tiring to deal with this kind of denial of your lived experience each time you share it.
It can make mistakes and hallucinate. I've found GPT-4 to be slightly better than earlier versions.

Ideally tell it one step at a time you need done, I've found that it struggles with multiple overlapping steps for some things but not others. It can make tic-tac-toe in one prompt in HTML5 and Javascript. But maybe if you ask it to make it rain in the background or something like that in the same prompt it might mess everything up.

I've also found it's good at common problems and sometimes spotting the cause for syntax errors, but less common problems it might not know.

Hope that helps.

Am I off base, or is "create" sort of amorphous in this context? It's already creating novel sentences and paragraphs. What is difference between that and real creation?

Personally it seems to me that if you feed a statistical model of a ton of input it's going to feed back the average of that input, leading to uninspiring phrases. Regarding game creation, we'd need to tell it about game mechanics, and I have no idea how it'd determine what's interesting or how it would innovate.
Yes I've been an engineer for 15 years at a bunch of big companies. MLops isn't ML data engineering. I doubt data engineering has many changes outside of active learning.

Yeah, strong agree. Some of the early German sources are intentionally obscured as secret knowledge:

Liechtenauer whose Zettel is often seen as the beginning of the German tradition despite Liechtenauer saying he learned it from others.

"Because the art belongs to princes and lords, knights and squires, and they should know and learn this art, he has written of this art in hidden and secret words, so that not everyone will grasp and understand it, as you will find described below. And he has done this on account of frivolous fight masters who mistake the art as trivial, so that such masters will not make his art common or open with people who do not hold the art in respect as is its due." [0]

The German is: "verborgen vnd verdackten wortten" which Google translates as "hidden and covered words".

Pretty close, but there's a bit more to it. This post goes over one way an ECS can store data: https://ajmmertens.medium.com/building-an-ecs-2-archetypes-a...
You’re right of course. The LLM is a calculator continuously predicting a best-fitting next token based on the data it was trained on.

If its outputs resemble human reasoning, it’s because the encoding and training process managed to capture those patterns and use them to simulate fitting text. There is no real reasoning happening or second-order thought, other than a simulation of that happening through the mimicry of human writing.

LLMs can’t be prompted to perform actual reasoning, but they can be told to generate “thoughts” about what they’re doing that bring out more nuanced detail when they give their answers. This isn’t any more magical than writing out a more thoughtful prompt to get a conditioned answer, it’s just getting the LLM to flesh out the prompt engineering for you in the general direction you want it to go.

That seems rather fundamental to me, the idea that with some generic prompting the model tries to fit what it thinks reasoning looks like and can then take advantage of the additional context that would others be buried too deep to influence its answer.

I suspect that prompting the model to explore “thought” asks it to go down paths of linguistic connections that are related to the topic but not immediately connected to the answer in a way that would immediately influence the top predictions. Bringing summaries of those connections into the token context is a kind of zero-shot training on their relevancy to forming an answer.

To me this is less “reasoning” and more suggestive of the idea that some of the heuristics for data retrieval and question answering we collectively refer to as reasoning have broader applications.
DevOps was associated with a new generation of sysops with stuff like managed infrastructure, IaaC, continuous deploys, etc. It was a whole new generation of that thing.

As far as I can see MLOPs is just equivalent generation devops applied to ML.

Russia has a different definition of Nazi.

Simply don't protect yourself from invasion by Russia if you are a potential target for Russian invasion, and Russia will not be forced to invade (at least for now.)

> It's ironic how Russia is always assumed to be a passive unresponsive corpse with no concerns or perspective and memory of its own.

Indeed, and apologists of Russia often take this position: in their mind, Russia has no will and no ambitions, and only reacts to what the US is doing. Whatever they do is always the fault of americans and never a manifestation of their own will.

Here in Eastern Europe the perspective is a bit different: Russia is a failed state that never developed a free and open civil society, and instead fluctuates between soft and hard authoritarianism. Their dictators tend to develop imperialist delusions from time to time and that makes them a direct threat to their neighbors and that's why everyone is so keen on building international cooperation to set up an unified front against Russian invasions. The ground under my feet has seen Russian invasions, raping, pillaging every 1-2 generations for as long as Russians have existed.
At my school we had to write a base64 encoder/decoder in x86 assembly last year. Then we moved on and wrote a small shell in C. We had a lot of theory but the practical parts are what made it work imo.
When working on the C stuff i often used compiler explorer to see which assembly is generated.
It seems as though the main issue here is not with FP itself, but with the politics and power dynamics within organizations.
This is not just great news for a Finland, but also for my own Norway, and the rest of Scandinavia. Even before this was finalized there was already work on closer cooperation and integration between our air forces. Give it some time and we will see all of us getting more out of defense spending, by not having to duplicate everything and combine buying contracts. When Sweden finally joins later is going to get even better. Attacking any state in Scandinavia just got a lot harder, and was imo. the whole point of this.

I think that just means "moving fast enough that relativity is significant and has to be accounted for". It doesn't mean they are right at the speed of light (although they could be, I don't know). You could call a rocket "moving a relativistic speeds" because relativity has to be included in the calculations for accurate missions within the solar system.
Same as in Ukraine. I'm Ukrainian and I lived there for 27 years. There are very little Ukrainians who don't have Russian relatives, because they all had sex between each other when USSR was still a thing. Many Ukrainians have one of their parents born in Russia. The culture in both countries is, more or less, the same.
Not that long. A day, maybe, before they start to feel pretty dead for regular recreational play. As the level of play goes up the tolerance for old balls goes down. In top-level pro matches they get out fresh balls several times in a match.

You can buy storage canisters with pumps or other pressurizing devices that will keep the balls fresh longer. (And may even repressurize dead balls. I've never tried that but it seems possible.) Still even at my very low level of amateur play, in my ladder league it was expected that each player would bring a fresh, unopened can of balls.
Lucky, last time I had a nice steak dinner at an airport they would only give me a butter knife.
Assuming a is an expression, which could well be a call to a function, then the two are equivalent.

Note that the argument here is one of declarativeness vs imperativeness, i.e. whether it is at all practically possible to ever have programs that have zero need for control flows. It is not one of whether a() is a pure vs a stateful function.
The problem with your suggested approach is the resulting lack of holistic context. The problem of OP's approach (direct parsing) is cost and context-window-limits. There has to be a better way.
Unless of course, they are not helping the team at all. Unless they are busywork we go through without ever looking at again or using it practically. Unless they are made to avoid making decision and then to avoid it again.

The company I work for have quite a lot of all hands presentations with content relevant to like ... 5 people. While everyone else nods, sleeps, reads reddit, zooms out daydreaming. We have diagrams that have nothing to do with anything, but make manager feel like she is controlling something.

We do not spend much time on ticked management tho. Which an argument against that idea too - you can in fact have functional ticket management without everyone spending too much time on it. But, I did seen overly complicated systems in the past that required constant fiddling.

There's a nice overview at [0] "An Analysis of Uniswap markets." Some very interesting larger dynamics are discussed in [1] "When Does The Tail Wag The Dog? Curvature and Market Making."

The Uniswap mechanism varies significantly by version number:

[2] "Improved Price Oracles: Constant Function Market Makers" and/or the [3] the Uniswap V2 whitepaper.

+ For newer liquidity range mechanism, there is a very nice explanation in [4] the Uniswap v3 core whitepaper.

Ask HN: Why don't parents impart their knowledge to an AI for their children?
Children probably don't want to hear endless and boring details about what they should do when their parents die.

For example, how should they make funeral arrangements, continue to pay bills, maintain the house, etc.?

But this knowledge could be imparted to an AI that their children would access after their parents die.

Couldn’t you say it’s just devops applied to a specific type of app that often isn’t deployed to production? And takes significant understanding of the underlying systems to deploy? It certainly feels like ML discovering devops.

That can still mean it requires a unique skillset that devops people dont generally have.

It’s just hard to imagine how infrastructure and deployment suddenly isn’t devops because it deals with ML.

> so you will likely need employees in France.

A few but not a lot. You would need a corporate entity, a sales team if you do B2B or want to get government contracts and a few employees to deal with the special snowflakes regulations and keep up with what the bureaucrats are making up. But you don't need engineers specifically in France. Even localization can be contracted out, since it's a well defined scope.

Not only that, but France is right next to Switzerland where there's a concentration of French engineering talent. That and, it's relatively straightforward for these guys to just transfer to the Bay Area.
