Not the OP. I used to work hard at night in my early 20s, but now ( approaching 30s), I find it hard to even think about work when the day’s over. I play games sometimes, I have a backlog of movies I want to watch — I have a nice system — and I have various things on my plate to learn. Reading books — fiction — can take a huge chunk of my personal time, and I enjoy spending an hour or two listening to music albums in my collection.
Nishikado has been interviewed dozens of not hundreds of times about this same topic since the 90s. There’s nothing new in this article, it’s missing a lot that’s in most others, plus it’s at least half ad.
Take a look at the linked paper, they train using batches with about 5% of ImageNet in them (batch size = 2^16), which is pretty large from my perspective. Overall they show diminishing returns for larger batch sizes after a certain point. That fits the intuition that SGD is an approximation to GD, which gets better as batch size increases until the approximation error is negligible.
No, I'm not missing any context. The E-sports audience is largely incompatible with the audience that enjoys playing with fun and interesting toys.

Completely incompatible? No, and that's not what I said. In any sufficiently-large group there will be exceptions to that group's general tendencies.

Were I Nintendo, I would definitely take pains to put a big damper on people and organizations who wanted to do "professional" E-sports to my toys... which seems to me to be exactly what they're doing.

The fallacy is thinking that macine learning is like human learning. It is not the same at all, and yet people continuously conflate the two whenever discussions like this come up. "Because humans learn, there is no problem with AIs being trained on an illustrator's entire corpus so that it outputs works convincing enough to be a forgery" is the argument you are making and it's a bad one.

One technique for finding the derivative of the sin function is to find the derivative of arcsin first. The arcsin function can be expressed as the area of a certain figure, and therefore admits an expression as an integral. From this, the derivative of arcsin is immediate. Finally, apply your technique to arcsin(sin(x)) = x and obtain the derivative of sin.

A similar technique finds the derivative of exp(x) from ln(x), by defining the latter as the integral of 1/x.

I once talked with someone who was writing a book about (among other things) how patents delayed development of aviation in the USA so much that they entered WW I without any aircraft of their own. (Despite the fact that the airplane was <ostensibly> invented in Ohio).

Federally, all of them. I dont think it is a role for the federal government. The only plausible authority it the continued in proper use of the commerce clause to justify all federal action.

At the state level I think the only regulations should be those around direct safety concerns (like air bags, lights, etc). Efficiency or other non-safety related regulations should be disallowed. Further safety regulations should be limited safe operations for other drivers sharing the road, not passenger protection (outside of regulations on truth in advertising, product defect)... passenger protection should be a market dynamic, coupled with greater tort reform to be able to hold liable manufacturers for their marketing claims.
Bucha is ethnic eradication. Irpen is ethnic eradication. Prigozhin saying that they have "eradicated most of the active male population of Ukraine and therefore achieved the goals of the war" is a straight up confession.

Ask HN: Is PostgreSQL better than MySQL?
I hope this doesn't entice a flamewar, but speaking honestly here, whenever I discuss this (PostgreSQL vs MySQL) with folks working in the data space, PostgreSQL is always touted as the superior RDBMS.

Now I know that MySQL is the most popular (because there's a banner on mysql.com that says so! /s), and I get the sense that on raw speed alone, it's probably faster (this is purely anecdotal), but folks that use PostgreSQL speak about it with an air of superiority.

So I'm hoping some of you HN users can shed light on this, based on your experience.

Is there a clear winner, or is it purely a case of "it depends"?

(and if it's the latter, is there a generally agreed comparison list of pros and cons that I can refer to?)

Thanks!
My personal impression (I'll admit in limited in scope) is that expectations are generally higher in the US. Not expectations around hours put in, but rather how quickly work gets done, quality of the work, etc.

And that's not just management expectations of employees, but also employees expectations of other employees.

If my coworkers in the US pulled what I saw in some parts of Asia, they'd stick out like sore thumb and be generally despised by other employees for screwing them over.
It basically works without issue in 1d, simply because dx and dy can be considered modular forms and dy is exactly dx times the derivative dy/dx. You can even put an integral sign in front of them and calculate the corresponding integral.

Where this doesn't work is if you have more than 1 dimension. Then you need to deal with the added complexity of integrating modular forms and the fact that in 2D you don't have df = (df/dx) dx but df = (df/dx) dx + (df/dy) dx. The chain rule also changes into a matrix product, rather than a simple dz/dx = dy/dx dz/dy.

There are often separate patents for things and methods of manufacture of those things.

In any case, a patent will be drafted to try to cover as many possible implementations of the thing or method.

I don't have a source, but upon doing further research the larger problem is the enforcement as countries through various agreements countries only have to give at least as strong protections as they give to their own nationals.
> I, on the other hand, never purchase a game without watching gameplay footage...

Good promotional materials provide lots of gameplay footage, and Nintendo's definitely a company that I'd trust to not misrepresent the nature of their games and toys in the promotional materials.

Regardless, I'm quite aware that there are variety of folks out there with a variety of purchasing habits. I was responding in large part to the absolutist, histrionic statements made by the OP:

> It is putting the livelihoods of those content creators in danger ... I feel like this is yet another example of a large company acting in a way that hurts both their customers and themselves. I don't think it costs them anything to allow the creators to make that kind of content; rather it will make people more aware of their games[.] [These actions] will most certainly hurt initial sales of the game.

(It's almost as if OP isn't aware that Nintendo, the Nintendo Switch, and Zelda are -among households that play video games- household names, and that Nintendo has a _substantially capable_ marketing and audience surveying department.)
I might end up getting another router next time I move because of this.
What I meant is not things like OTRAG (which was an abomination indeed), but practical configurable launchers unified to the certain degree into a family. Think Delta IV, Atlas V, Angara, or even Falcon 9, which is the only surviving rocket from the family that was originally planned.

The reason modularity of that kind wasn't especially successful isn't the tyranny of the rocket equation, but the economy. Turned out the launch market is too small to capitalize on fringe cases, and the added flexibility simply haven't outweighed the loss in efficiency. When the modularity was starting to pick up steam, most thought that the market will expand much faster, and few people expected Iridium to be a miserable failure, for example.
I think it's poor form that they are taking the GPT-4 name for an unrelated project. After all, the underlying Vicuna is merely a fine-tuned LLaMA. Plus they use the smaller 13B version.

The results look interesting, however.

Here's hoping that they'll add GTPQ 4bit quantizing so the 65B version of the model can be run on 2x 3090.
> But the common trope among the designers was always "launch on a modular rocket, assembly from pieces in LEO, depart anywhere".

It’s a design constraint imposed by the reality of launching from Earth. It puts an upper bound on how much weight you can send at one time. That’s pretty much the only choice until we can manufacture directly in space.
>as I understand it, the price should be set as a function of the prices of competitors outside the airport, per the Port Authority's own pricing rules.

That sort of regulation is never very effective. The VA requires that vendors that sell them medical devices do not sell those devices at a higher price elsewhere. They end up buying a lot of SKUs that are only sold to the VA.
This tool uses DirectX, so cross-platform is quite difficult with that. 3000 commits tell the story that this repo is around for a while. There was a time where Windows-only FOSS was perfectly fine. In fact, there are many FOSS tools where you have to figure out how to run them on Windows, as there are only Unix versions available.
Bravo!

IMO, we should put politics and rivalry aside a minute and just appreciate a job well done.

It's weird - there was a lot of support on HN for Mastodon before Elon Musk took over Twitter, albeit in the midst of a lot of criticism, mostly about UX. Now that the narrative of people fleeing Twitter because of Elon seems to dominate discussion, it seems like everyone wants to double down on hating it or dismissing it. Even with evidence that Mastodon's UX problems aren't insurmountable, everyone still wants to call code on Mastodon and declare it dead.
