That's roughly what Flattr 2.0 did, as a browser extension :

https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/flattr2.html

(I guess the advertising industry, including Google, lobbied hard against a potential competitor, especially already at the time owned by an adblock company?)

Heck, already Flattr 1.0 did that with its Flattr buttons on websites, but it got pretty much killed off by the 2013 Twitter APIpocalypse...
I'm sorry, but no. DeepMind might be well known to AI nerds, but it's not a household name the same way ChatGPT/OpenAI has become.
We need to use a bubble, right?
The fact that Microsoft is baking GPT into all of their products guarantees explosive growth.

ChatGPT is also one of the fastest growing consumer products in history by number of users. At $20 a month for plus, it could be a significant revenue stream.

Then add all the companies like Duolingo and Snapchat that are using GPT as well.

If you don’t see this as explosive growth, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Basically because it's a high-mid-tier, nice modern car. Comparatively it has a quieter and smoother ride will allow me to make phone calls on my commute, using carplay to make the calls, read messages to me, and play music through the incredible sounding large badass speakers. The ride is much, much, much smoother. It'll be much more comfortable for a long road trip. There will be more room in the cab for stuff like say, my wife AND my dog. It comes with a warranty that I can use at any number of locations near me. Parts are still made for it and I can buy them here. It has R17 tires, 4 wheel drive, and anti-lock braking, electronic traction assist, TPMS, it will tell me when there might be ice on the road so I should proceed with caution, it has an advanced cruise control system with radar and lane keep assist, etc., etc., etc.
‘We Will Hunt You’: Ugandans Flee Ahead of Harsh Anti-Gay Law
This isn't necessarily regulatory capture or protectionism.

Half of all cars sold in the US are imported. Toyota, a Japanese company, is the most popular brand of car sold in the US.

So, yes, you can import cars all you want, they just need to follow US safety and emissions standards. These cars do not meet those requirements, so you can't import them.

If you didn't block them as imports, we'd have lots of people just go to Mexico and buy highly-polluting vehicles to save money, and our problem with smog in the border states would be much worse.
The highest precision GPS receivers require dual-frequency reception and perform "carrier differential GPS" - any time people are talking about GPS with 2cm accuracy, that's what they're talking about.

The GPS signal has a digital signal (with a wavelength of ~300m) modulated with a sine wave (with a wavelength of ~20cm) - you can measure the 20cm signal much more precisely than the 300m signal, but it's 'ambiguous' because it repeats every 20cm and you don't know how many waves of the sine have passed.

If you can receive two frequencies, giving you two slightly different sine waves, you can multiply them together and get a sine wave with a longer period, which (together with some clever maths) lets you bridge the gap between the unambiguous-but-imprecise digital signal and the precise-but-ambiguous sine wave.

You also need a fixed base station at a known location - or access to a commercial network of such stations.
But you were talking about AI in general and dismissing the risk entirely as sci-fi.

I think a large enough LLM, or at least a slightly modified one, could lead to AGI and we’re not as far from it as you think
The R&D tax impact will NOT even out. its taxes you pay for 5 years that you don't get back.
R&D tax credits is a small right-off and not worth the efforts.
Lots of startups don’t even do the R&D tax credits because of the cost and time evolved to do all the necessary records, backups and reports.

You've done a great job. Well done. I went through about 10 minutes. Some of the stretches I couldn't do at my desk - they require too much room.

Make sure you've giving people time to see what the exercise is, to learn it, before starting the count down.

Also, if you could show a hint of sorts of the next, up coming exercise, a user might be able to get ready for it and continuously flow between stretches once some experience with them has been gained.

And maybe see if you can provide an option that allows one to stretch actually at their desk, with little to no getting up from the chair... I know, not ideal, but a 3-5 minutes routine in the chair is better than the nothing most of us do now.

Thank you!
>Am I hallucinating or didn't several of the examples have background audio artifacts, like it's been trained on speech with noisy backgrounds, I'm guessing audio from movies paired with subtitles? Having random background audio can make it quite hard to use in production.

The other side of that problem is an opportunity. That's why the same model can also generate music, background noise and sound effects. And it's just because the prompt specifies those things explicitly. The input is truly semantic, so the output is rich and reflects that context. Is your input text sounds like it came from a speech, then there's a high chance your output audio will sound like a megaphone in a public space with crowd reactions and maybe even applause.
While giving notice is polite, it's important to note that it is just a courtesy in most places, and you're providing that courtesy to something that will happily fire you with no notice if it benefits them. If you're somewhere an employer can treat you as having quit the day you provide notice, then you should give minimal notice to maximize stock vesting, benefits, etc.

So you don't need to provide "more notice (a lot more notice)" as the benefits listed just aren't real. I've replaced bullet points with numbers for ease of reference:

1. Do only the parts of your job you enjoy the most
2. Eliminate ~all stress from your job
3. Get paid the same
4. Extend your benefits for longer
5. Take unused vacation time
6. Vest more stock
7. Get your bonus
8. Leave on a positive note
9. Be thanked and appreciated by everyone

Of these the only a few are unequivocally true, and most are just false or unnecessary, or even contradictory. The true ones are (3), (4), and (6), and only if you live in a place where an employer is not permitted to terminate your employment upon notice.

Your primary goal in providing this courtesy is (8) leaving on a positive note, but if you're trying to do that then (1) and (2) are out. You're employed, you have to do your job, and if you shirk that then you're not leaving on a positive note. At the same time if you've announced you're leaving the company has no reason to continue being nice/trying to keep you.

So we're down to (5), (7), and (9). In most countries (5) is some variation of "earned income", that is you've earned that money and they have to pay you out when your employment class. In many countries sick leave is also earned income and must also be paid out. Hence (5) is unnecessary. If you aren't in such a state or country, then you're beholden to "can I be terminated immediately upon notice", in which case you're better off going on vacation, and then handing in notice.

(7) isn't going to happen once you hand in your notice. Either you've already been awarded your bonus, in which case they can't claw it back, or there's no reason for them to give you one - you've given notice so giving you a bonus isn't going to benefit them.

Finally for (9), you don't need more than 2 weeks notice. You don't really even need a week for that. This particular point feels like it's part of the "your job is your family" nonsense that is routinely exploited by employers.

There is no benefit to extended notice unless you're trying to ensure that (8) will leave you the option to return or work for the same group of people elsewhere in future.
I disagree with most of this, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

One point I'll offer is that ability to shim an old interface onto a new implementation validates the design of the new thing. If you can't shim them, chances are there's some necessary problem you aren't solving, and possibly aren't aware of.

Concrete details of all these things will alter the discussion. I think my example of audio is a good one for the strength of "the old way". The old interface works, even though it does vastly different things than it did in 1995. Like you say, maybe there are some features you can't get with the old interface -- that can be OK. But they didn't break it.

The Win32 subsystem on NT-based Windows began as such a shim too. The NT native APIs sometimes look very very different. Most people don't know this. eg. Most people don't know that renaming things isn't its own syscall that operates on a source filename a la unix rename(2), which is what Win9x did -- that there's transparently an NtCreateFile() call that happens inside MoveFile() ... Philosophically, the NT API "hates" doing things based on filenames, most operations that Unix or Winapi have as filenames operate on handles... But nobody needs to know, the Win9x API is the public API.
Weird, I haven't used Emacs for that long and I really feel why I'd want to use Emacs for everything. I don't mostly because it seems annoying to setup the slack integration + SSO and that kind of thing. But I'd definitely want to write all my texts in (evil) Emacs, have all my to-do/Gitlab task/slack reminder /etc in org mode and review Gitlab PRs without ever opening a browser, etc
From the day they published it, they included a disclaimer that the dossier contained

And that

I don't really hold it against them that they published a document they had been given with a big disclaimer on it.

As far as Semafor is concerned, I'm pretty sure SBF's investment was public record. Where did they fail to disclose it?
It is not installed by default on any of the systems I work with. We have around 10 office staff that all use windows, and 2 windows servers. No Perl by default on any of them.

To the best of my knowledge you must install one of two main distributions of Perl for Windows. https://www.perl.com/article/downloading-and-installing-perl...

You can also use WSL.

Edit: It sounds like, from other comments, that Perl comes with Git Bash as well.
Yeah, looks like they didn't account for the fact that trackpads exist. Using zoom shortcuts or a mouse works fine though.

I don't agree with this - it really depends on how it's done. I think the way it was done in this thread was non-accusatory, and generally I find that these suggestions are very helpful. Once you get to a certain level in a second language, your communication tends to be good enough that no-one corrects you any more, which makes it really hard to progress. I really like it when people correct me, FWIW.
Went POOOFH faster than twitter, but much less entertaining.
I've looked into HSMs and I don't think they are intended to handle this scenario due to the needed to be in multiple states at once.

For instance, you partially fill one trade. This spawns a process which must then enter an offsetting trade for that partial amount.

While this is going on, you may partially fill more of your initial trade, which then must spawn an offsetting trade for that amount (and so on).

This quickly escalates out of control when you consider all of the possibilities which can happen at each state along the way (partial fills, cancels, connection issues, circuit breakers).
California has an answer to that: imported cars are generally required to meet the same emissions standards as cars intended for the domestic market:

https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehicle-registration/new-regis...

From the California DMV's web page on direct imported vehicles:
"If your direct foreign import vehicle was not originally manufactured to meet California emissions standards and DOT FMVSS, the vehicle cannot be registered in California, unless the vehicle is modified and tested under CARB’s direct import program."

Based on research that I done years ago, my understanding is that the modifications required to get many foreign vehicles to conform to California's emission standards, combined with the testing fees (which is far more expensive than the cost of a traditional biennial smog check), make it prohibitively expensive for casual buyers to legally register imported vehicles in California.

Some people get around this by registering their vehicles in other states where only the EPA 25 year rule applies; occasionally in California I do see cars with their steering wheels on the right side with Nevada or Oregon license plates. However, California generally requires its residents to have their vehicles registered in California.

One thing I'm curious about is whether California allows direct imported vehicles to be converted to run on battery-backed electric motors as a legal modification. If this is the case, then the vehicle would certainly pass the emissions test.
When we did the research for our network appliance customers, we were very interested in NXP. Have you tried to buy Application Solutions Kit from NXP? We faced the problem of not achieving spec performance using NXP reference boards. After reaching NXP, support informed us that we should buy ASK, which would solve our problems. Unfortunately, it was beyond our research budget.
They should mine bitcoin instead.
> You can import cars all you want, they just need to be safe and not pollute. These cars do not meet those requirements, so you can't import them.

I don't understand. If this were the case, it seems like the rule wouldn't make an exception for 25+ year old cars.
>> ChatGPT generates unhelpful, plausible-looking nonsense.
> Absolutely not!

It does, quite often. Not only that, as you describe. But it does.

For example, I asked it what my most cited paper is, and it made up a plausible-sounding but non-existent paper, along with fabricated Google Scholar citation counts. Totally unhelpful.

It also can produce very useful things.
System76's support UI is terrible, but they employ excellent people.

Anthropic recently released a new version (v1.3) a few days ago. I've been using it for Python code generation and it very good.
Yeah, but this thread seems to mainly be talking about left-hand drive imports.

If someone does their homework, they could bring over a big American Ute to NZ (buy cheap in US, sell for heaps in NZ). Need to be extremely careful about NZ regulations though - complicated and relatively costly/risky. Ideally find someone in NZ that has done it for the model you would import into NZ.

How do you spot a diseased animal, and what's your protocol for dealing with it?

It's tricky because the symptoms may not manifest for up to a year and sometimes even longer. This time of year is extra tricky because I get deer that show up late in winter and are emaciated from a lack of food, but it could also be disease. If I suspect a deer is infected I call the game warden and they would come out to put it down and get the lymph nodes tested. There is no other way. Thus far I have not had to do this. The only deer I have lost thus far was one that for sure was starving for too long in the hills and took too long to find his way to me and several last year that played chicken in the highway but that has stopped since I started feeding them twice a day.

I could actually see formaldehyde preserving the prions. I am curious what ph of acid they used. I would be surprised if the bleach I use does not decompose the prions but maybe I have been going through the wrong process all this time. If you can suggest a better procedure I will look into it. I'm not worried about ruining boots.
That is precisely what I'm doing now and it's the best solution I've found so far. However it is brittle and it takes quite a long time to iron out the edge cases where things can happen that you didn't anticipate.

I have one system that has been more or less stable for two months and once a week, it fails inexplicably (dumping no logs either). Whenever this happens, I find myself writing a ton of debug code hoping to catch it.
No, not really. It was never really as large, and most of their output was in probabilistic programming (e.g. Pyro) and work that was relevant to self-driving cars (point cloud compression, etc.). But they shut down Uber AI in the layoffs last year.
Microsoft has no AI. They license OpenAI's models. One of countless way in which Elon's threats are non-factual and toothless.
Farms easily could. You can get GPS RTK kits that cost less than $1k and you could set that up at a central location, with wired power systems, etc.... it could calculate its own position down to the centimeter, and then you could use that to help provide correctional information to other clients.

SparkFun has some kits in this space, but you can easily pay up to $10k or more for a more commercialized system that is designed for surveying, or other related purposes.

> You seem to be talking about the function f: N -> N, which isn't surjective, but I don't see the relevance.

It's worse than just irrelevant. The claim is that we have two sets, ℕ and S, that are the same size. The argument that they are the same size is the observation that we've demonstrated a bijection between them.

No one ever mentioned a function from ℕ to ℕ, because that would tell you nothing about S. It would be like saying "in order to show that 5 is odd, observe that 2 and 2 are both even". The idea is gibberish.

I came in a little hot trying to catch a yellow light on a left hand turn (US) and powerslid a Miata perfectly across 4 lanes... my second month of owning one and driving stick.

I guess I agree and disagree with that sentiment. If you do at least this routine frequently, it'll probably be a good thing, but you won't necessarily progress anything in any measurable way.

Whenever I know someone who wants to become a bit stronger or feel better, but hates the routine or gym or doesn't feel like they have time, I always recommend just showing up to a gym as frequently as you can, but 3 times a week is a good number. You can't optimize what you aren't already doing, so it's not really necessary to tell someone to fet into any particular exercise until they're there and feel comfortable with that.

To that effect, this routine doesn't seem like it's for someone who already has literally any existing training experience, it's for someone who sits all day and doesn't really have anything in movement.

As for my comment, I just mistook you for OP, it was early.

I personally love pullups, bench etc.. and that changes over time, but I'm usually chatting with people at the gym and making connections, which inspires me to try what they're doing and keep the habit strong. If I wanted to apply more rigor to it, I'd probably note my progress in some meaningful way, try to ingest more protein, pay attention to more detailed nutrition elements, but that's like a tertiary optimization that doesn't interest me too much.
> The only thing they didn't do is turn Google Search into a chatbot,

No, they turned google search into what it is now.

For me, trying google bard was an instant reminder of the change in behavior in google search from 15 years ago to today.

We used to have a search that you could give obscure flags to Linux commands and find their documentation or source code. Today we have a google search that often only tell you about how some kardashian or recent political drama is a sounds-alike with the technical term that you were searching for.

GPT4 has some of the same "excessively smart" failure modes, but it (and GPT3.5 for that matter) is so much more useful than bard (which hits the user with "I can't do that dave" 100x more often than chatgpt's already excessive behavior) that they're a useful addition to the toolbox. Too bad the toolbox hardly includes plain search anymore.

I've been working on this area for quite long, and I think it's just a matter of time it becomes huge. Right now, a major roadblock is that single-cell RNA-seq, which may also give paired TCR alpha and beta chain data, is too expensive compared to bulk TCR-seq. The latter has limited resolution and more technical variability.

However, Microsoft Research has a preprint that employs bulk TCR-seq where they are able to detect Lyme, which is particularly difficult to do using antibody assays and often mistaken for multiple sclerosis: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.30.21261353v...
