>Stadia's shutdown was inevitable in part because we had already established this distrust, and also because leadership handled every aspect of it incredibly poorly. It was technically impressive, but the economics relied on the addressable market actually being willing to go all-in on the service.

This is what I don’t understand. Is leadership really this dumb or are we missing large pieces of context?

The prevailing sentiment is google is flakey. Don’t rely on their stuff.

Now removing redundant services is one thing. But from the outside it looks like they don’t care about regaining confidence. And they don’t care about creating new stable products that I want.

Did they really think Stadia would be an instant success with their shit reputation in a market that has been already carved up by the incumbents? A naïve observer would say it would take years and a ton of money.
What a weird comment. You know nothing about BYD (you just read their Wikipedia and that's all you know) yet you're sure the article is wrong. But factually, BYD is the leading ev maker.
From what I understand many BYD vehicles already have Euro safety specs. Including, incredibly, the $9,000 Seagull.

Most LLM models are at a very high level very similar to Word2Vec in terms of inference on the encoder/non-generative side. Both convert a word/token into a vector representation. GPT does it contextually with all the other words in the input while Word2Vec does it independently for each word. One difference is that a LLM model can also create an "summary" embedding of all the words that's more than just a mean/max of the individual word embedding.

So you can, for example, use a LLM to convert a document into a vector and then also use it to convert a search query into a vector. Then you can find the closest document vectors to the search vector.

I'd love to know your breakdown of which 3 are "side projects." the 2 I can imagine you are referring to, jacquard and onhub, had 3rd party hardware manufacturers implementing them.

These are all projects that google wanted developers to engage with their ecosystem. Routinely inviting devs over to work with you, then kicking them out in the cold, will obviously have consequences.

I remember participating in CodeJam 2003 twenty years ago, and it was such a positive experience that Google was the first company I applied to out of college.

Right now I'm working on a project using a gcp API, and now I'm considering finding an alternative because arbitrarily doing the same work twice is never the most efficient way.
I strongly feel like this LLM hype should have revealed the bullshit job phenomenon [1] to the world. Instead nobody questions their bullshit reality, and assumes that if a program can perform in bullshit, it is as conscious as a person.

you can never put it past Google to just kill anything up to Google Search, but the Pixel is a success and it doesn't make sense to compare a high-end line of products on a per-unit basis to cheapo phones like TLCs

for instance the most profitable watch companies in the world are Timex, Rolex and Omega, and they have a combined market share of a fraction of a percent and on a per-unit basis they don't sell, combined, a thousandth of the units Casio alone sells (by the way most smartwatches are sell at nearly no profit and Apple's watch business has been losing money for a while)

tl;dr: In a first step, private citizens over the age of 18 will be able to a) keep and consume up to 25 grams of Cannabis on their person and keep up to three flowering plants and b) join a non-profit "Cannabis Club" that will be able produce up to 50 grams of Cannabis per month for their members. These clubs will have a maximum membership of 500 people.

In a second step, there will be a number of model towns/regions which will allow for-profit enterprises to be established (both production and distribution). These will be experiments and will be accompanied by scientific studies.
I'm sure there are a lot of companies where hiring people is (perhaps inexplicably) much harder than taking in consultants. I think some of these people are taking advantage of situations where employers are wrongly preferring employees to consultants.

That sentence is referring to the media commentary ignoring BYD:

They literally cannot. For one, neither C++ or Rust conform to standard C, meaning they already deviate from what C does on a basic level.

Their industry uses are highly different as well. C is almost a requirement for embedded systems, and while C++/Rust can be used there, they’re simply too complex and in Rust’s case additionally too young to be adopted. C++, and possibly Rust (if it can get its act together), are more used in high level programming, as that’s what they’re built for.

If C++ could do what C can, then why is the Linux kernel 98.5% C code? Wouldn’t it be better to use a more varied and powerful language?

Or, maybe different languages have different use cases and cannot be directly slotted in to replace one another.

I'm convinced that the spate of Tesla price cuts this year are mostly to get ahead of BYD and Chinese competition as much as any other reason.

1/3rd of the world's cars are sold in China, and the EV market share went from 16% in 2021 to 30% to in 2022. IOW, production capacity increased by 4 million cars. Now China is slumping. Last year it was easy to sell an EV in China, now it's hard. So millions of Chinese EV's are going to start flooding Europe soon. Chinese already makes over half of Australia's EV's.

> From what I recall, the original iPhone only supported 2G, while contemporary phones supported 3G.

Yep. Only EDGE and quad-band GSM ("2G"). The second generation iPhone was called the "iPhone 3G" specifically because it supported tri-band UMTS ("3G") with HSDPA. In fact, some even back-named the first generation iPhone to "iPhone 2G".
Do you think anyone beside who are vocal (HN/tech crowd esp) care about this 'killed by google' and refrain from using their main source of revenue such as Search, Gmail, Android, Youtube, Map, Photos? Zilch.
GCP/Gsuite's money pouring clients are enterprise customers (not HN crowd), who for the large majority won't bother much about that either. So they clearly know their act doesn't actually make a dent in their revenue stream, but in fact that spring cleaning is a win for them.
The thing that would make a Metaverse interesting is if it acted as glue between all those very similar services, i.e. being able to hop from one MMO into another one with your complete party, without having to switch accounts, avatars and all that. Kind of like your browser can access and follow links to numerous different websites, but with 3D and multiplayer included.

The problem with Meta's Metaverse is that that's exactly what they don't want, their vision of VR is one where the have complete control over everything. Thus you aren't even allowed to access their Metaverse with hardware not made by them.
For the kind of money that's on offer? I would imagine it would suit a lot of people. Fix a few bugs, add some diagnostics, see what the customers think should be changed? Why wouldn't you, it seems like the sort of thing you could get someone to do.
After visiting the BVD website, what’s remarkable to me is that they’re priced from $32-40k. From the photos at least, it looks like a $100k+ car, much more luxurious than a Tesla Model S. But then again, I’m probably just used to price gouging in the US.

Why are you and ed_mercer so intent on defending Google here? I mean I HATE Microsoft and I have to admit they do a much better job of handling product shutdowns than Google.

Reputation may not affect Google's ad based revenue, but it absolutely affects their ability to profit in lines of business outside of ads.

Google might have made more inroads with enterprises with G suite and GCP if they didn't have that reputation. The gaming industry is a 200 billion/year market that Google could've captured a decent size of if potential customers trusted that they wouldn't quickly give up. All of that represents billions of dollars in lost opportunities.

Yeah. Most of what is valuable to me about GPT-4 is its reasoning ability, not fact recall or writing quality. Fact recall has been mostly solved by Google search cards for years, and writing quality is not the most important thing now that I'm no longer a freelance writer, GPT-3.5 and some of the good OS models like Koala produce okay writing quality.

What nothing else can provide is something that will reason intelligently with the data you give it, with similar or better quality to paying for something like MTurk, for much cheaper and nearly instant delivery. That reasoning ability comes from the model size and training data quality, and in real applications using CoT, LangChain etc a lot of it comes from the context length. 8k is better than anything else I've tried at real use cases, and I very much want to try 32k because that opens up a lot of space to do new things (e.g. dump in a textbook on the domain you want the model to reason about). I want even longer context lengths than that too, but we'll have to see how it develops. From what I understand context length/block size is a pretty pure relationship to the amount of compute and memory they're willing to devote during training. RWKV's architectural changes may shake that up a bit, we'll see when Stability releases it.

I'm just trying to emphasize that most people only care about results. I think it minimizes Google's problems to think it is some technical stack problem. The problem is that Google has a disconnect with some quanity of users on what good search results look like. If Google and the users can't agree on the correct search results... Who is wrong the person doing the searching or google?

Resistance doesn't build in the course of days, taking only one pill ensures that bacteria with a mild but not total resistance survive it and then the next time you take the pill there are more of those bacteria hanging around, and one or two of those has yet stronger resistance.

LMFlow – Toolkit for Finetuning and Inference of Large Foundation Models
Once China introduces the EV equivalent of the Chevy Spark (which was one of the cheapest ICE cars ever, with an MSRP of $13K just last year) in the USA, that has a range of around 100 to 150 miles it's game over for many of these American manufacturers on the econobox type vehicles.

American and European price gouging will come to an end soon enough.

Assuming that range is cut in half during the winter in the coldest scenarios and the average American commute, one way is 25 miles, 150 miles will be more than enough to replace most ICE cars. That being said, destination on a car from China probably costs $2K alone, so reaching a 13K price point anytime soon will be very, very difficult.

Supposedly the BYD Seagull can go 200KM and costs $9K in China, so we'll see. Exciting times ahead. (For reference Jiangnan used to sell ICE cars in China several years ago for less than $2K, so even though EV is cheap absolutely compared to USA, it's still much more expensive than what China could make if they continued to make ICE cars. That being said 2030 will result in banning of ICE in many regions)
React is the most in-demand web framework for 2022. 42.26% of software developers have assured Statista that they use the framework to develop web applications.

Facebook first released the project as an open-source project in 2015. Over the next half-decade, the once-niche development framework would grow in popularity for complex applications that require high levels of user interaction. It offers rich user interfaces with custom components that provide quicker rendering times at a cost (which we'll discuss later).

So is React excellent or bad for SEO? Should you use React for your web application? Let's take a look.

China added production capacity for almost 4million EV's last year. (from 16% to 30% of 26 million). Given that Europe buys 12 million cars per year, hitting that goal would be straightforward for China.

If YouTube-dl let you bypass the paywall, that would make its main use closer to “obviously illegal”.
