A-10s are basically useless in the Pacific theater. They don't have the range, speed, or defensive systems to even make it to the fight. (And the same limitations make attack helicopters even more useless there.) A few squadrons composed of airframes in the best physical condition (fewest stress cracks) will probably be kept around for potential use in low intensity conflicts in other theaters but most will have to go to the boneyard.
Truthfully, if LLMs make an MD career unviable, then we are simply fucked.
I do think that day will come, but if I need a career for the next 30 years then I believe that MD is a safe choice. Not even for technical reasons. I think there are legal and bureaucratic hurdles that will take decades to adjust.
I assume the goal would be to automate the management of the sails so that the crew could still be only a dozen or so large. Replacing crew with computers and electric motors.

Otherwise I would be surprised if you could even make a good faith argument that this will be commercially viable.
Well, EY started as part of Andressen (?) and was as such part of the Enron scandal. We shouldn't ignore the scandal of the century. EY so is a very reputable accounting firm. Unreputable would be the Metaverse headquartered shop FTX used.

We generally only hallucinate while dreaming / using our imagination. And we can distinguish those two states. Admitting lack of knowledge is of course good but, for example, if you ask it to write some code that isn’t boilerplate API integrations, it’ll do so happily even when it’s wildly wrong and it can’t tell the difference and that is also the case with GPT4 afaik. Moreover, you can’t solve it through prompt engineering because there’s clearly a lack of context it’s unable to understand to figure out what non trivial thing your asking it.
Nothing in the article is open source. A proprietary model got leaked and there are other proprietary apps that are stupidly building on the leaked model.

It seems like we had no problems bumping broadcasters off of the higher UHF channels to open up space to sell to telecom companies, so how hard would it be to reallocate, say, channels 5 and 6 to public use?

I'd expect that a lot of broadcasters left VHF after the ATSC transition, because it seems like most modern TV antennas are UHF-centric designs, and channel 6 is already known for reaching into the bottom of the FM band, so it kills two birds with one stone.

The problem with anything new is that it's like the current appeal of ham radio products in general: the only community it reaches is people who already went out of their way to buy a compatible receiver. You can be relatively sure a "general" audience has standard FM and TV capabilities already.

While that is true, 'break bulk' is still very manually handled thus expensive.

Things that don't fit in containers basically.

Often its roll on roll off rather than crane.

So there are non container options but if they could use containers for break bulk they would so the efficiency of this is probably not very high.

Why the startup sector should keep its eye on the SEC
> You could equally well argue that punishing CEOs for bankruptcy makes banks more willing to lend money, improving the business climate.

Banks can take into account the borrowing history of the executive teams already.

> And of course for startups in the early years it's not that relevant anyways, since nobody will lend you anything until you have revenue.

Being unable to make payments on leases, etc, is pretty likely for startups that fail.
Nothing here is so newsworthy it justifies violating their standards.

I understand sometimes papers have to make hard calls. An important source demands anonymity. A tyrant is threatening to murder family. An election can be swayed by important but misleading info.

Nothing in this article falls into that category.

Worth mentioning that there is a Space Invaders project included in the first section of HtDP.

Personally, I wouldn't give Morazan's Animated Problem Solving a big recommend for someone trying to self-teach CS1, especially not when HtDP and How to Code are free. In my opinion, APS is a bit over-stuffed (it has a tendency to throw relatively advanced terms, like property-based testing, at the beginning student without much context or follow-through) and it can sometimes make exercises (including the Aliens Attack ones) overly complex and tedious.

I don't think HtDP is without criticism, but if you can get through the somewhat slow-going first section, it's a great textbook. Alternatively, you can work through UBC's How to Code (H2C), which has a brisker pace. I found the first section of HtDP a bit tough-going myself, so I ended up working through H2C first. I only came back to HtDP because I found some of H2C's explanations of later material shallow, but more importantly, I felt that its exercises were generally lacking in challenge. Nonetheless, I can't recommend H2C enough. Gregor is a friendly, patient teacher, and the H2C presentation of the design recipe somehow seems more fine-grained than HtDP's version but without feeling overly complicated.

Note that you can actually access the edX version of H2C for UBC students at the CS110 course page [0], just click on the link to enroll in the "edX Edge course". It appears to be an updated version of the original MOOC course with some small additions.

Ah ok, thanks. What I meant was that you could flip the states if it's a DFA. If you have an NFA then that won't work, as shown by your counterexample.

I suppose you generally accept in an NFA if there is an accepting state epsilon-reachable, so if you flip the accepting states, you could still have an accepting state epsilon-reachable, which is why this doesn't work. In an DFA, there is only one state that's (trivially) epsilon-reachable, so the construction works.
Robert Miles (AI risk YouTuber) made some good points, which is that we've made effective agreements to stop things like human cloning and weapons that blind people with lasers. It can be done. We did it with things like CFCs as well.

Even if we can turn AI research into a criminal activity would be a huge step in the right direction. At the moment, it's a matter of buying time.

I'm not wearing rose-tinted glasses about the difficulty. I'm already trying to work though the grieving process, myself. But I think it's worth putting in the effort, even if the end result is just reducing the chance of doom by a fraction of a percentage point, or buying humanity 2 or 3 more years.
> it's probably the easiest expressed with some long dated ITM calls on MSFT

Just buy equity. No need to sidecar long vol in the middle of a resolving banking crisis.

Yes, Microsoft are taking a significant stake in OpenAI. But it’s not equity, because OpenAI isn’t a corporation. (Partnership interests. Economically similar.)

One thing I’ve never figured out about fusion - how do you get the heat out and turned into electricity?

(Presumably, water to steam then turbines, like everything, but how do you get the heat out from the reaction?)
I'd agree with all of this. It's not so much the presence of ecosystem, it's the maturity of the ecosystem and knowing how to navigate it. Lots of competing approaches in a relatively small community makes me a little nervous.

If people are curious, DataFrames.jl has done a fair bit of work in consolidating a list of other packages that complement DataFrames.jl:

https://dataframes.juliadata.org/latest/#DataFrames.jl-and-t...

I do have to say that DataFrames.jl itself is a pretty impressive bit of work, and Bogumił Kamiński deserves no small amount of credit. If Julia ends up stealing significant mindshare from R / Python data science communities it'll be because of of this work.

Also for the Julia curious, I'll say that I find the ergonomics and sensibilities of the DataFrames.jl ecosystem much more in line with R and the Tidyverse than Python/Pandas.
Well, we all seem to be in agreement that excessive rerenders are the leading cause of poor performance, and reactive frameworks are the solution.

The only performance bottleneck (I can think of) at scale with these frameworks is bundle size. Components are marginally larger in solid, and much larger in svelte. Fortunately, components don't all need to be loaded at once, and react has a lot of weight from the getgo. I cannot imagine a situation where the increased component size of svelte or solid would actually result in a larger app, even before weighing the performance gains from reactivity.

One other thing to note: An old team tried scaling with svelte once, and we ended up with react. This isn't related to performance, just DX. Solid is going much better, the primitives approach makes scale easy to reason with.

We are not still paying $2B for each B-2. Production of those ended years ago. The replacement B-21 is expected to be somewhat cheaper (although still very expensive) with a unit price in the $700M range.
It's likely intentional as I am sure Google will try again to change manifest v4 to disallow the functionality that makes adblockers work, in the way they tried with v3 before massive pushback.
> We’re already seeing Rust making major inroads at the lower levels of the JS stack, e.g. Deno, swc, turbo, parcel, react-relay.., even 3.5% of the next.js repo!

There's a big difference between using it to write tooling, runtimes, etc. and using it to write application code (what GP was talking about). In the above examples, end users don't have to use a Rust workflow at all

I agree, but I think my experience is representative. So far most human people don't have the resources to be able to use 65B. And most small companies / university groups don't have the resources to fine-tune a 65B.

I've talked to a couple dozen people in real time who've played with up to 30B but no one I know has the resources to run the 65B at all or fast enough to actually use and get an opinion of. None of the open source llama projects out there are using 65B in practice (despite support for it) so I think my 30B and under conclusions are applicable to the topic the article covers. I'd love to be wrong and I'm excited for this to change in the future.
At the next step. It's a no go for me as well.

If comfortably includes "with air conditioning in the summer and more than just a fireplace in the winter", that's cheating. Either humans can live comfortably in Antarctica, or we can only live comfortably in the vicinity of the equator.
That's the interesting thing. if LLM start to just become interfaces for other systems you could probably just use them to train smaller systems like in the style of alpaca and other recent LLMs.

If they ghost, you keep charging them until they decide to cancel the contract.

I could find you similar articles saying that Steve Jobs wanted to hit back at Apple because he was mad at them, and merely used the tech reason as an excuse.

I think you’re right though, I don’t know for a fact that that’s true. Nobody can really know the deeper reasons behind this move.

But my point is that people should stop looking at Elon musk as a “fun and weird guy doing crazy things” and more as a ruthless shark who will take whatever is required to win. Which is typical of Silicon Valley CEOs
Does anyone have a good non-gaming use case for Haxe? It feels very nice to have multiple compilation targets and the language is great, but I never found an excuse to use it.
> If it's relatively easy today, and that's proof that it's not difficulty of attacking that's saving us.

It could be perceived that way, but the argument is also that if it becomes easy enough, some actors will participate. It is the argument used for jailing current LLM capabilities.

> "we're giving people robotic weapons in their garages"

On long enough timeline this would inevitably be true if AI plays out as proponents envision. The question becomes does AI become an effective counter of all such power advancements. There will likely still be disparity among AI's of individuals and personal use. Unless society becomes more centrally managed by a global AI.

> inherent asymmetry that attackers need to solve multiple problems

Isn't there also asymmetry in that the attackers only need to find a single exploit, but the defenders need to have found all exploits beforehand?

> But we're hurtling towards the opposite, where unaligned models lag generations behind aligned because of commercial interests.

We don't have any "aligned" models. It is an unsolved problem and models have turned out to be relative easy to replicate at significant lower cost than the major commercial investments.
That's kinda on the 'we'll figure it out later' track.

Materials are being investigated that can withstand the heat and neutron bombardment to attach a steam turbine the old fashioned way.

But we ain't there yet, not without having to constantly change the 'walls'.

> Most of the energy produced inside a fusion reactor is emitted in the form of neutrons, which heat a material surrounding the fusing plasma, called a blanket. In a power-producing plant, that heated blanket would in turn be used to drive a generating turbine
> Ehh, in rare cases in can though. If you have someone sign an NDA, they can't go and publish technical details about something confidential that they were trained on. For example, this is fairly common in the tech industry when we send engineers to train on proprietary hardware or software.

And I think nearly everyone would agree that it would be perfectly fine and reasonable for an AI trained on a proprietary corpus of information to produce copyrightable/secret material in response to questions.

Just because I built an internal corporate search tool, doesn't mean that you get to view its output.

The question at play here is when the AI is trained on information that's in the public commons. The 'teacher' analogy is, in this sense, a very good one.
I test the best smartwatches – so why am I wearing a $15 Casio?
Yes, it's useful when you're ssh'd into some production system somewhere and just want to get a quick sense of some data in memory instead of going through the steps of installing a full graphics stack (which fortunately is pretty much a one-liner in Julia also, but can take a few mins).

Why do you think super intelligence is not likely to happen within anyone's lifetime? Is there something about the problem that makes you confident in its difficulty? What other technologies would you put on a comparable ~100 year timescale of difficulty?
What features/browsers are you talking about specifically?

On one hand, you cannot expect any developer to support a browser that is completely unheard of to them, or expect codebases to freeze because something doesn't work on some certain ancient Opera Mini version. Developers serve business goals, which are tied to user goals. If a single user is using some super niche browser with a custom home-brewed rendering engine, then I don't feel bad about not supporting it - not at all.

On the other hand, if you're talking about something like WebNotifications on IE11 or a certain browser API on a B-list browser, then there should certainly be some graceful fallback instead of the entire site being unusable.
Perhaps have this go together with an Extended Validation certificate?

> This is contrasted to Go, which I think turns away these developers (at least it did for me…) due to having null-pointer/non-existent nullability.

As opposed to Typescript's null, undefined, or optionally defined types? I don't use Go or Rust, but I do use Typescript so maybe I'm a bit confused by this statement. Go allowing nullability doesn't seem like a dramatic shift from Typescript's 3 different ways to represent a potentially ill defined object, and it wouldn't turn me away from the language.
Reminds me the Bill Hicks routine on marketing people. First telling them to kill themselves and then suggesting the marketing people are thinking “he’s going for that anti-marketing dollar, there’s a lot of money in that”, etc.

Letting a ChatGPT with pinecone run infinitely to solve complex tasks

I did a coding test with ChatGPT and supplied the prompt plus a screencast of me doing the coding test with ChatGPT.

Didn’t even get a phone interview.

I really don’t care though because coding tests are usually a silly waste of time and I’ve had my time completely burned by employers wanting coding tests to which they reply either nothing at all, or some one liner like “we didn’t like it”.

If you DO are coding test, agree to it only on condition they supply your their assessment methodology first …. a request to which very few employers would respond.

Coding tests are mostly arbitrary, meaningless, unscientific and evaluate nothing real world.

I say refuse coding tests and go to another employer.
There really isn't any trigonometry here apart from sine rule, and because sine rule is derived from similar triangles, anything you can say using sine rule, you can also say using similar triangles.

The trigonometry thing is simply a marketing gimmick for this proof. There is no more or less trigonometry in this proof than there is in Einstein's proof. In fact, you can just taken Einstein's construction and reformulated that proof in their language by using sine rule instead of similar triangles. But then the gimmick would be too obvious.
Even if the weights are copyrighted, running one more epoch of fine-tuning will result in different weights. At a certain point, they'd have to copyright the shapes of the weight vectors.

I see, so [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8] is more similar to [5, 3, 1, 7, 8, 2, 4, 6] than with a linear layer? That's what you mean by permutation equivariant?

I understand each context input is embedded with its position, but I suppose the transformer can learn to ignore the position and just look at the context as an unordered set?
I did not know that one! It's a more complex version of the well-known functional definition of the exponential function, i.e. the unique continuous function satisfying

and a normalization, E(1) = (whatever).
Why make such a big fuss, they are just having fun.
With recent foreign military sales (Switzerland, Norway, Czech Republic, maybe Greece), the R&D costs of the F-35 are now being spread over a much larger fleet. It's still not a cheap plane .. but the price is dropping by building them in volume (like was originally intended for the F-22). Production rate is up to about one being delivered every other day.

Lockheed Martin and it's many contractors have made a large investment in production tooling & automation so the planes are being built in a process more like an automotive assembly line than individually like in years past. Note the large fixture @3:00 holding the wings vertically to make it easier to drill accurate holes.
