you're just not looking in the right places. There have been some traumatic posts from ukraine I've seen on /r/combatfootage and other subreddits. stuff I really wish I hadn't seen at all. People with their face half blown off by grenades, a few guys who drown slowly after getting hit by a drone dropped grenade while in river, a man who crawls out of a covered area thats been grenade dropped, corpses behind him burning, his arms not working and pale from bloodloss.

It's there.

IPFS promises a lot of things (content-addressable, unique identifiers, fast, efficient, durable) but hasn't delivered on any of them. It's basically a slower + more complicated reimplementation of Bittorrent's magnet links.
What a joke. Talking about the size has no safety implications.
Right, but if not playing before or playing differently before increases the chance of victory, that's a good thing in the utility function. For example, even in a non-infinitely iterated true prisoner's dilemma, defecting is the right move. In an infinitely iterated one it's probably not, but that requires pretty sophisticated decision theory, including acausal or backwards looking analysis. In a standard forward looking minimax, when applied to chess, you can use an arbitrarily sophisticated evaluation function, and that function can model the psychological state of the opponent, potentially causing the opponent to have no prior knowledge of your games, or changing your play style or using surprising moves. In addition, I don't think any external force would prevent this action, as top players in the real world have used similar strategies and were able to continue playing more games. If Kasparov thinks you are required to waste your first game on a weak player, he is mistaken.
Something I liked to do around that age was make "newspapers" for my parents - no need to buy or download anything (except paper and staples, I guess). Fold some paper in half a couple times, cut it, staple it together, until you have a booklet that's vaguely small-newspaper-shaped. Give it to her and let her imagination run wild writing whatever she feels like, reporting on recent activities at school, at home, could be the events of books she just read, whatever she knows about in your local community or even the country/world. If she wants to, let her do some research on the internet too, although that's not something I ever did (I don't think we had the internet yet even?). It's a creative writing project, a design project, potentially a research/analytical project. My own "newspapers" were always titled "Today's News" and while I always did them purely for fun, looking back I think they gave me a basic sense of graphic design/layout, helped my handwriting, improved creativity, were an early idea of how to design headlines/titles of articles that are clear to the reader, and other basic writing skills.

Obvious points based on my experience when I made these:

- This is for fun, don't like, grade her on it or anything

- Whatever she learns from it will be very tangential to the fun, but she probably will learn things from it

- If she wants to write made-up stories about imaginary friends and such, that's fine, it's a kind of make-believe play. I did that sort of thing too, it didn't mean I didn't know fact from fiction in the actual newspaper

- You absolutely must read every single edition. Multiple times.
Hello rexarex,

The use-case you're describing could be a great fit for the tool we're building: stacktape.com.

It offer the simplicity a productivity of a PaaS platform directly in your own AWS account. It supports all of the infrastructure components you've mentioned.

It's a tool made for developers that want to deploy their apps to AWS without having to learn all of the DevOps/Cloud/AWS knowledge.

Unlike other PaaS platforms, Stacktape deploys your apps to your own AWS account and allows you to extend/override anything, giving your the full control and minimum amount of vendor lock-in.

A harrowing tale and I'm thankful the author made it through alright, but I have to fundamentally disagree with one possible takeaway from this:

Her solution to burnout was to _start her own business_?? I'm glad this worked out for her in the end, but holy shit this would be the literal last possible thing I (or I hope many others) would consider as a solution to burnout. That's a _fast track_ to burnout.

Agreed, and it's really frustrating to see how little HN understands that decentralized != 'cryptocurrency' or blockchains. There's such an immense hatred due to laziness in categorizing anything remotely close to blockchains (without regard for how close e.g. git is to these technologies). There is a lot of value in them to solve some of our problems (e.g. the foreseeable closing of Docker hub, huggingface, and many others).
I think you're sort of half right
I'm a 70's kid.

They've been telling me the world was going to end soon since I was young. I was taught in college in the 80's that the earth was going to be in climate catastrophe by 2000 (and also that there was going to be no oil.)

I believe in science, just hear me out.

All these big predictions are based on n=0 actual data. We have scientific evidence of climate change in the past, yes, but it's all generated from models that came thousands of years later. Scientists didn't actually get to witness and record the event as it happened.

We don't know how long it will take climate change to hit and how bad it will be. We don't know how much is exactly anthromorphic and how much is exogenous.

Based on this uncertainty it's really shitty to teach children that they're not going to have a future because the climate is going to crush us all. But even if it were true, how fucked up is it to tell a child their life is hopelessly doomed when there is nothing they can do? Why not let the child obliviously enjoy a pretty fun part of life?
>> Can it come up with...when it has no idea that such a concept exists?

> I was curious to see if it could.

But you told it about the concept, "a new statistic that mixes hessian and likelihood with score".

You should try a different experiment. I'm more familiar with architecture than statistics so I'll use the floor plan example. Were someone in 16th century had asked its LLM to address the painpoints of the joined room approach, and then the LLM conceived of the novell concept of a corridor. [Look up the origin of the word.]

If that 16th century LLM spat out "the overall concept is to distinguish between transient and in repose spaces. There is already something similar in military architecture called 'corridor', which is a strip of land along the outer edge of a ditch. In these new floor plan designs, there will be corridors internal and peripheral to the building that will connect rooms, just like corridors (strips of land) connect lots or permit movement without stepping into a ditch".

-- can this happen? --

You: Invent a novel test statistic that can be used to test hypotheses about the parameters of the model, such as whether they are equal to a particular value or whether they differ across groups or conditions. You can combine existing statistical tools.

gpt: How about "Hessian-score likelihood ratio"? The idea behind this concept is to use the Hessian matrix, which captures second-order information about the likelihood function, along with the score function, which measures the sensitivity of the likelihood function to changes in the model parameters, to construct a likelihood ratio test statistic.

A lot of dealerships make more money on service than on sales. Extra money from subscriptions aren’t nothing when looked at like that. Average car service costs are what, 500-700/year over a long span of years?
I'm not the author/GP, but my immediate take here is that if you have a 100 people trying to get access to a secret string, and 5 of them succeed, then 100 people now know your secret string. Once the information is leaked, it's leaked.

The user safety angle is only one part of it. I think a better way of phrasing this is, "given that your secret prompt is already public and is impossible for you to secure, you might as well make it fully public within a context where it helps keep the user safe."

Graph databases and observability around how social algorithms work would also benefit from transparency, but the really big difference is that it's possible to keep those things a secret. In contrast, I would suggest it's not a good business decision for any company to rely on their generated prompts as a competitive moat. What prompt you give to GPT is not a unique enough differentiator to keep your business afloat, that's too easy for other companies to replicate.
You’re going to need to prove that you know what you’re talking about. Go print out all of the code you’ve written and be ready to defend it.

I have been out of school for over 10 years, but still to this day, I get college exam related nightmares of all kinds. I can't say what I say will 100% cure your condition, but this is what helped me way back

Can you try to recreate the real test environment and take practice tests that way? Time limit, location, mood, no music or headphones etc. Treat your practice exam as if you are writing a real one and do this over and over again.
Here's the original paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762
There's got to be predictable ways of improving LLMs besides training data scale and parameter count. Arent LLMs robust enough to learn on their own via interacting with the world? Like put them in a turn based simulated environment.

I wonder if there's an assumption for how big an LLM should be before it could even conceivably be an LLM. Is there a minimum size necessary before that capability is plausible?

Lots of people also just don't care about either China or the data privacy concerns because they're not data private people nor data privacy activists. I don't think it really has to do with having the luxury of a second device so much as the issue not actually being an issue to most people.
Ask HN: How does ChatGPT understand code and how to refactor it?
A few days ago I threw 500 lines of pretty bad python code (lots of copy/paste and unnecessary repetition) at ChatGPT. First I asked to simplify the code. It introduced some vsriables. Then I asked to extract functions for repetitive code and it did. Then I asked to add type annotations and it did that too.

I was blown away. It did quickly almost exactly what I would have done but much faster.

Now I wonder how this works. I understand that it calculates probabilities of what should come next based on the learning data. But how does this work for refactoring. Has it seen so much python code that it can also guess from that learning data?

I am definitely very impressed and want to figure how this works especially for specialized domains.

I hope the question even makes sense.
It baffles me that the interface into the ChatGPT API is a blob of unstructured text. This seems to be the core reason for this attack vector.

Why is there no structured API into ChatGPT? I developed some tools with the Amazon Alexa voice API about a decade ago and remember that was the default operating mode. There were different classes for weather, tasks, Q&A, etc. Never heard of a "prompt injection" attack against the Alexa API...
I found these resources to be helpful.

https://jalammar.github.io/illustrated-transformer/ This is a good illustration of the transformer and how the math works.

https://karpathy.ai/zero-to-hero.html If you want a deeper understanding of transform and how they fit in the whole picture of deep learning, this series is far and away the best resource I found. Karpathy goes into transformers by the sixth lecture, the previous lectures give a lot more context how deep learning works.
You know, this reminds me of one of the few Economist Jokes I know, where the economist hears of a previously-unknown real world phenomenon:

"That's interesting. It works in practice, but will it work in theory?"

the other one, since you wondered, is:

Two economists are walking on the sidewalk and spot a $100 bill. One bends down to pick it up, but the other stops him and says, "That can't be a $100 bill. If it were, someone would have picked it up already."
I've never used it, but https://github.com/jart/blink is pretty much that. It's tiny and:

> macOS (x86, ARM)

> OpenBSD

> Cygwin

From what I gather, it's in the "excellent but incomplete" stage. It's new enough.
This is the standard RISC-V GNU toolchain top level repo that everyone has been using for nearly a decade. Nothing new here. (It was originally under github.com/riscv/riscv-gnu-toolchain, but was moved 2 or 3 years ago)

Is that an actual transformer, though? Like with encoder and decoder layers? That’s the part I never truly understood. Or is it “just” an example of a neural network? Thanks!
The scenario of a created universe doesn't itself give you any kind of reincarnation or afterlife. It's added complication, especially since every aspect of it is apparently hidden from us in elaborate ways.

The people (and even military personnel) of the United States wouldn't have tolerated capriciously dropping atomic bombs on Moscow three years after we helped them defeat the Nazis. But perhaps something in the nature of AGI will allow its "discoverers" to act more unilaterally evil and with fewer fetters. An army of amoral robots would certainly remove a lot of checks on certain kinds of behavior.

Well after seeing how Twitter is going, and the rumors about how SpaceX and Tesla have learned to “manage” him, it almost seems like the less time Musk spends focused on a company, the more freedom they have to operate successfully. Perhaps it’s a benefit, as the more companies he’s involved in, the less damage he can inflict on any given one.
>and very counterintuitively to me

It's more intuitive if you remember how many dimensions these vectors have.
Maybe. Starting a business does involve the classic “now you have all of your customers as bosses instead of just one boss” but it also unlocks much more autonomy and frees you from the loss of agency that the author felt in their corporate role.
No, but it's a way to implement compartmentalization.

In the scope of this thread it's a sad thing that someone felt helpless in the face of a burning building, a sinking ship, a looming climate problem, etc. and took their life as a result of that feeling.

In terms of the uncertainities that you've expressed:

> We don't know how much is exactly anthromorphic and how much is exogenous.

It's a fairly simple mechanism at earth scale - the nature of the insulating blanket in the near vicinity of land and ocean surfaces has changed as a direct result of human activity.

There are increasing levels of CO2 that lead to an increase of trapped energy over and above a long term stasis balance of sunlight in | heat radiated out.

> I believe in science, just hear me out.

That makes two of us at least and the evidence we have is solid, we have libraries of atmospheric air samples that show the changes, we have a wealth of mining and extraction records that log the amount of formerly buried hydrocarbons we've pulled up in the past century, we have instruments that measure the released gases from the ground and show the spectral sinatures from space.

> But even if it were true,

It is true, and the records are public.

> . . . how fucked up is it to tell a child their life is hopelessly doomed when there is nothing they can do?

Who said there is nothing to be done and we're doomed though?

There are changes to be made and habits to be changed.
> Really just goes to show that most of their statements about the environment are just nonsense (looking at Apple in particular).

It's not that they're nonsense, they're simply whatever those corporations deem to be most profitable to say. To expect differently is misguided.

It's exceedingly rare for what's most profitable to project/say to align with what's most profitable to do. Even for individuals... "do as I say not as I do" is an idiom older than dirt.

Doesn't make it right, corporations are incentivized to behave like psychopaths. But it's not nonsense, it speaks volumes to what a given business is appealing to. In my experience they're often most vocal about the aspects they're actually behaving the worst in.
Yeah every transaction has a one-time key you can give them. Settlement in 25 minutes is quicker than the 1–5 days they already deal with.

In law this is often couched as ‘retribution’ vs ‘rehabilitation’. I’ve been out of law school for over a decade, but about ten years ago pretty much all the evidence was the retributive prisons/legal systems were awful (created more recidivists, were more expensive, had more conflict between staff and inmates, etc…).
It's extremely useful for publishing and downloading ML models. Huggingface and such are not going to be reliable, so it is a smart move to use academic torrents or ipfs instead.
