The article linked by OP is an indictment not a verdict.

The punishment for the crimes he's accused of has so far been none. If he's found guilty then a verdict will be issued with a punishment and sure that should depend on what he was convicted of.

But to claim that Trump's punishment for falsifying business records is not proportional to the amount of damage done is premature.

In general, courts would rather you do 34 claims rather than 34 lawsuits.

> The enduring popularity of these articles on hacker news just shows a demographic bias. Sure if you are young and live in San Francisco or New York City, this might seem reasonable. But for the other 80% of America,

And this sort of comment shows demographic ignorance. Do you know what percentage of the US population lives in rural areas?

Fourteen percent. Not even 1/5th of the US population. The rest live in urbanized areas.

The percentage of the population over 60? About 17%.

> Cars may be environmentally awful, but they’re great in basically every other way, so let’s just electrify them and build lots of new clean energy and stop trying to make everyone ride a bike.

60% of all car trips in the US are less than three miles, electric cars don't solve congestion and land use waste nor all the injuries and deaths, and last but not least:

nobody is "trying to make everyone ride a bike." Stop straw-manning.
Can you give an example where they have wielded this power? That is, can you give a single, solitary example where the WEF has implemented something that goes against the wishes of the electorate somewhere? Anything?
I feel like you're attacking a straw man. I don't think anyone believes an artificial intelligence needs to know how it itself works to be intelligent.

On the other hand, we'd like to know how it works. I mean, why do we do science at all? If you don't need to know physics to throw a ball, why bother studying mechanics or biology?
So is DC a "red state"? Why does California have insane crime? What is going on in Chicago? Why is most of the midwest, which leans quite red, the safest part of the country alongside the very blue upper eastcoast?

California was the biggest receiver of federal funds for a long, long time. It does not seem to have made a difference positively or negatively in it's violent crime rate. Texas has always paid more to the Fed than received, yet we have our own very violent cities (and some of the safest ones).

The vast majority of drug victims are really the victims of war on drugs - that’s what makes clean, safe drugs unavailable and forces people to use dangerous replacements.

From the very beginning the American war on drugs was motivated by racism. It’s just another state-organized genocide in disguise.
Yeah in my Michigan city we deal with sleet and snow every day for 4 months.

You also bring up other valid concerns. Where are people supposed to park their bikes for work, or going into a grocery store? We have a big enough problem with regular manual powered bicycles getting stolen, what makes you think an e-bike that is 2-5x more expensive is going to be more secure?
Yeah, I don't really subscribe to this seemingly ever-expanding definition of "Baby Boomers." It was supposed to be babies born in the euphoria right after WWII, but now extends for 20 years.

The ever-expanding "millennials" label is even more absurd. It originally meant people graduating college around 2000: a very specific group. Now, again, it has blown up to include decades of people.

After Boomers, all the labels are just idiotic. Let's all just refer to age groups using [gasp] numbers.

Funny enough I have been dealing with this situation at work exactly right now. It is insanely annoying to be in such an environment.

Obviously, I'm the odd man out for saying a project can be done by 1-2 engs in a month. This said project is being currently done by 10 engs who are all writing boilerplate code since two months.

The management is not taking responsibility and I can't believe everything that is said in the post is fairly accurate.
> Saying that you think in words is saying that the computer from GalaxyQuest thinks in words because every time it does something, it reports what it has just done over the loudspeakers. You're confusing the effect with the cause.

This seems a bit silly. I'm not saying that speaking words is what constitutes thought. I'm saying concepts generally need names before we can reason about them.
I know anecdotes are not data, but I've been surprised how much “elasticity” there is in NYC when it comes to people I know who are not disposed to ride a bike starting to ride a bike as infrastructure (meaning both bike lanes and ride share) improve.

On the other hand, there are lots of reasons why adults who can drive don't want to drive. I have a license but I'd rather bike than drive and not have to deal with parking, gas costs, traffic, etc. Plus I get some exercise.
Grand Rapids?
This could be ruled out as the explanation by looking at deceased records as well - if people who died around the age of 30 in the 1950s, 40 in the 1960s etc. also all had curiously “round” birthdays then we could chalk up the fraud to poor recordkeeping instead. I’d be kind of surprised if such a coincidence hadn’t been previously noted though, surrounding discussion of the “birthday paradox” for instance.
>Yes, and for the same reasons they are invading Ukraine now! They feared German attacks through Finland and decided it was better to invade first, just as they fear American attacks through Ukraine and decided to invade first.

Next you'll argue that they feared German attacks through Poland, and that's why they invaded Poland alongside the Germans.

I've done it both ways, while GPT-4 seems to be better at sticking to valid moves, neither play well, and neither noticed when I won. If you claim victory at any point, they'll congratulate you and concede the game, which is pretty funny.
It means that your comment was dead (like this one actually) and not visible by default. If you click on a comments timestamp (like the text that says one hour ago) you see more options - one is flag, another is vouch. As I understand it vouching is literal - I hit that button to say that your comment disappearing seems like a mistake
> Could it handle CD-quality FLAC audio?

I doubt it, since CD-quality audio is already objectively better (for human hearing) than analog audio on LPs. The only thing LPs are better at, sound quality wise, is extension into the ultrasonic range of 20-30+ kHz (which we can't hear anyway) but the SNR and distortion metrics are much worse in the ultrasonic band than the audible range.

I'm not sure if this is a named principle, but it seems intuitively obvious to me that on any particular encoding medium (magnetic tape, vinyl groove, etc.), you can encode "more" data in an analog way than digital, since with digital encoding you need to be able to make distinct symbols onto the medium, and represent any signal fluctuation with a series of such symbols; whereas with analog encoding a tiny fluctuation in what's recorded to the medium can correspond to a tiny fluctuation in the signal. Of course the tradeoff is that digital data is much more immune to distortion from imperfections in the medium.

If the same track width and pit sizes on CDs were used to encode audio in an analog way like LaserDisc does video (the continuous distance between pits being modulated by the signal), no doubt it could encode well into the ultrasonic range and surround audio channels via modulating them into different frequency bands. But it would have its own characteristic "surface noise" and "pops and clicks" just like vinyl.

> Get this, say a project takes a year to complete. The concept is saying a 10x engineer can do this in about month.

The true 10x engineer looks at the project, sees the inherent needless complexity, goes back to the sponsor and uses his business knowledge to renegotiate the specs. Leading to a reduced scope with 98% of the business value and 10% of the work.
I'm surprised China is even in the list, because in my mind the Chinese who go abroad are either students (with rich parents who can afford to send their children abroad) or labourers who wouldn't have much to spare. Also a poor Chinese villager can (could?) probably find a job in their bigger cities and not need to go all the way to the US.

But I guess, like India, it makes it in the top 10 list just because there's so many people from there.
It's agonizing to get a single bike lane in most municipalities for a myriad of reasons. It's much easier to flood the city with ebikes and force them to address it by causing problems. It doesn't matter if it's a good idea or not, because it's already happening.

We partially agree here. However the vast majority of TFW’s are farm labourers. This is gruelling, backbreaking work that am not convinced Canadians would do at any (realistic) wage. It’s also highly seasonal so not really a big help if people just go on EI afterwards. Furthermore, with grocery inflation what it is, what do you think would happen if the wages of the pickers doubled or tripled because they were done by Canadians?

I’ll tell you what would happen - People would lose their minds.

So… it’s complicated (at least in that industry). I’m not as convinced about the need for them in tech and restaurants because, as you say, they should probably just pay more and Canadians would do those jobs. But the numbers I saw don’t seem that significant so I’m not so sure.

Unemployment is also at the lowest it’s been in ~50 years so.. where would those new Canadian workers come from anyways?

There are no simple answers. That’s why I’d like to see what economists are saying. I know that with regular immigration, there’s a consensus among many economists that we need them so our economy doesn’t actually shrink due to low birth rates.
It's chicken egg thing.

Ah, indeed, that access is still rather limited; most can only have a peek a GPT-4 through ChatGPT Plus.

As for Bing, I don't know what's behind the scenes, but it does noticeably worse on tasks in "Creative" mode than ChatGPT backend in GPT-4 mode, in my limited experiments. For example, try this:

> A is 1m left of B, B is 1m above C, D is 1m right of C, E is 1m below D, and E is 1m right of F. Where is F located relative to C?

GPT-4 can usually solve this correctly. Bing is usually wrong even when it tries to solve it step by step (and it often won't unless you prompt it).

DPLII was originally worked out as a blind upmixer using analog circuitry. See this interview with Jim Fosgate, who designed it:

https://www.stereophile.com/interviews/1204fosgate/index.htm...

Later Fosgate worked with Roger Dressler at Dolby and Dolby's engineers converted the analog circuit to digital. See these two posts from Dressler for additional detail:

https://www.avsforum.com/threads/dolby-pro-logic-ii-vs-dolby...

The encoder came later, after the DPLII blind upmixer was already designed.
It really is a testament to the power of the Windows monopoly that MS can continously make the product worse without losing a meaningful amount of customers.

Windows is more than ripe for disruption, but unfortunate the monopoly is enforced by drivers, productivity software, habit, gaming etc.

It's depressing to think about how much better our computers could have worked if there had been real competition in the market of PC OSs for the last 25 years.
> a lot of machine learning endeavors that aren’t generating much value.

I agree with this. From what I have seen, execs want something fancy, when you could give a boring-ish tool that reduces your OODA loop cycle time to 30% of what it was using unsexy techniques. Much of it having to do with tolerancing of answers, being within 5-10% is more than enough to drive the business, but someone somewhere said it had to be exact and that blows out the latency budget.

When engaging in consulting gigs, it is super important to know what kind of org you dealing with before you get involved. The myopic penny pinching orgs should be steered well away from, which I think was your point.
> and the failure of individuals to capitalize on what opportunities they have available

Yeah, we could blame the 5 year olds for their lack of grit and determination to create their foundation for their reading skills. Alternatively, we can look at what other societies achieve, and try to improve our own.

Also you are completely ignoring that plenty of people have functional difficulties learning to read and write. Anecdotally I would say over 10% based on my dyslexic or illiterate friends and family, some of which had professional focused help beyond what schooling provides. I agree with you that the education system has its faults, and some people “fail to capitalise opportunities”. However there is a large segment of people that are motivated, work hard, get good educational opportunities, and yet still struggle to read and write. There are people with denial or bullshit reasons too, but too many of my friends and family have symptoms that I have good reasons to believe they are not making anything up.

My 10% figure ignores functional meta-level difficulties for lacking motivation. Perhaps born without grit and determination; perhaps never taught it; perhaps other home problems trump it.
Doh, I thought you were from LongChain.
The school didn’t care. They didn’t want him to repeat grades if he already knew everything. They were focussed on his development than arbitrary restrictions around age.

Yes, if we look to places like Finland that have a high percentage of bikers, we'll find a very temperate climate. This clearly only works in places without snow. I'm not sure why people ignore this argument in every single comment thread about bikes.

Sorry if it's a dumb question, since It's quite hard to keep up with all the recent developments in custom GPT/LLM solutions.

Do I understand correctly that the GPT4All provides a delta on top of some LLAMA model variant? If so, does one need to first obtain the original LLAMA model weights to be able to run all the subsequent derivations? Is there a _legal_ way to obtain it without being a published AI researcher? If not, I'm not sure that Gpt4All is viable when looking for legal solutions.

By the time you've directed somebody to do the work with sufficient precision, you could have just done it yourself.

And it’s much slower because “do it” includes trial-error-decision cycle, which is fast when you’re alone and weeks if you are directing and [mis]communicating. Also wondering where it goes and how big of a bubble it is/will be.

it's a fool's errand to beg for such a thing, that'd cut off discord's primary revenue stream. A more sensical solution(sadly https://xkcd.com/927/) would be to create a clone of discord's interface, and point it to an existing, more popular chat backend. Personally despite matrix going more in the direction of being a discord-like, it still has plenty of metadata-leaking yuckyness. Discord is certainly ahead in this race, but hopefully we can eventually move on to a standard owned by the people, and which doesn't blackbox so much valuable knowledge
Totally. All I want is an easier time navigating code; not getting lost in tabs and page scrolling, nested class structures and function references, interrupted by context-switching text searches. It feels like I spend 75% of my brain capacity managing my short term memory. Your buddy mentor is a great formulation of the kind of AI aid I need. As for generating code, that's the least of my concerns. I'm actually happy when I get the opportunity to just hammer down some brain dead lines for a change.
