Teslas are just fun to drive, I don’t think most people buy them to signal virtue, if they want to do that there is always the much cheaper Prius instead.

I don’t think most Tesla buyers also care much about Musk. The more likely answer is that Tesla went through a huge sales boom the last couple of years and that’s sort of done now, anyone who wanted a Tesla over that period has one now, and now people are watching their money more carefully.
Yes and that's called a summer job. If high school was structured more like college where it's part-timeish it would be less of an issue but as it stands it's more than a full-time job and stacking on another job is silly.

> Super wealthy, powerful people are upset about paying 8 bucks month for something they use all the time?

As I understand it from the article:
> But, @dril is far from the only big Twitter user to follow this new unwritten "Block the Blue" rule on the platform. NBC News reporter Ben Collins, Harvard Law Cyberlaw Clinic's Alejandra Caraballo, and countless other highly-followed Twitter accounts have already shared their intention to block all Twitter Blue subscribers.

These people don't seem like they would be super wealth or powerful.

> "Twitter blue subscribers are without fail the dumbest and most boring twitter users," Collins told me, moving on to the other, non-straight-up-hate accounts who subscribe. "I’ve gotten really good at being able to tell who pays for their blue check just by the quality of their replies to my tweets."

That doesn't seem like being upset about paying 8 dollars. More like they are upset their timeline has gotten shittier since you can pay 8 dollars for more reach.
I think dog vision is too bad, and their socialization too scent-based, to make such a thing practical. Howling is a thing, but as far as I know, is more of a "here I am" thing than having a chat.

Agreed. Duolingo is great for first exposure. I learned how to read pinyin, ask short questions (e.g. where's the bathroom), make simple purchases, etc.

Beyond that, I find it almost useless for learning grammar and vocabulary. But this is still an important niche, and Duolingo owns it completely.
> If you want to be able to do Q&A against an existing corpus of documentation, can fine-tuning an LLM on that documentation get good results, or is that a waste of time compared to the trick where you search for relevant content and paste that into a prompt along with your question?

If you want exact detailed recall, then using a framework that provides search and recall (by embeddings or otherwise) is probably always going to beat fine tuning, but also remember, it doesn’t have to be either-or.

I mean, if you want a person to handle Q&A on a corpus, is it better for them to have studied it, or have direct access to the corpus with an appropriate index? The answer is clearly that its better if they’ve trained and have access to the corpus, and while LLMs aren’t the same as people, I think the answer for them is the same here.
Turbo Pascal came with a public-domain sample spreadsheet implementation (CALC.PAS aka MicroCalc) since version 1.0 (from 1983, 40 years ago!). Here is the version from Turbo Pascal 3 on GitHub: https://github.com/hindermath/MicroCalc
That's not something that Kissinger has ever gotten to decide and he has historically been frequently wrong. Kissinger is about as meaningless of a reference point as you could use in that sphere.

He hasn't had potent influence over US foreign policy in over four decades. They barely pay attention to anything he has said in the last several decades, and the left certainly ignores him.

Might as well quote Robert E Lee on US policy.
> Atom & renewable sources. 256x256 km of solar panels is enough for whole world.

Those sound like great ideas. How about we roll them out first, and only stop using fossil fuels once they're able to totally replace them with no downside, instead of giving up heat and tractors indefinitely in the meantime?

College is a full time thing if you are taking a full load. You just spend less time in class and more time in the library studying. It was much easier for me to work 40 hours a week in high school than in college because high school was just show up to class and college required a lot more time to study.

High school has lots of in class time but homework is pretty easy to get done in class and it isn’t such a drain. I still like the idea of making high school more like college, but it would still be a full time thing.
I think because a human actually wants to figure out what you want, and a you're just going to keep prompting that ML model until you get something similar to what you want, something that would annoy a human and probably waste their time or make an endeavor extremely expensive.

I don't think its really fundamental to LLMs its just that you don't treat a human the same way you treat an unthinking unfeeling computer system whose transactions are cheap and relatively near instant compared to requesting from a human.
not true for trucks at least, smaller pickups got killed by these regulations.

The argument is that there is a set quantity of co2/methane in circulation. The meat industry supposedly isn't increasing the amount on a yearly basis.

By that logic the only climate change relevant source of greenhouse gases are ones that introduce new ones into the circle, which is pretty much only burning fossil fuel.

It's a pretty old argument that holds some truth, (the fossil fuels are the biggest issue) but is also been debunked by people much smarter then me
So, contrary to the "reasonably educated people play chess" trope, I do not play chess and was quite ignorant of it. During a programming job interview, I was presented with what is apparently a sample problem of moving around a piece. I had to ask how the piece "moved" but didn't get the name.

Although the problem was easy, I still remember the interviewer flinching slightly each time I called it "the horsey piece."

Tangentially, this response is pretty interesting to me in the context of new LLMs replacing traditional search.

I couldn't understand why people thought LLMs would replace search entirely, since I search mostly to find content created by people. I want to read the article or watch the video, not just find some particular fact. But maybe I'm the unusual one in this case?

No, did you even read my quote? How did I misunderstand this:

It's misinformed at best, misleading at worst. The non-misleading truth is at the end of each message, the internal state is not persisted.

My point is that shareholder capitalism doesn't necessarily lead to the short-term focus you describe. Shareholders can in fact be the group with the longest-term focus of all. They can still be there and care about the company long after the current C-suite are all gone.

Yes, but they were only looking at biocrust potential from the three largest solar farms in that particular county.

Obviously if you wanted to help soil nationwide you'd also need to target solar farms nationwide. Plus, in the future we can expect more solar farms than we have currently, it's only quite recently that solar has started to become a non-trivial amount of energy generation in the US, as you can see in this chart: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:USA_electricity_productio...

> Would you be saying the same thing if you knew it was the founding fathers who were going to be writing the laws or if it was Abraham Lincoln in charge

Laws versus rules. The latter should be simple, because there are too many of them to keep an eye on. In any case, adding Nu element of discretion guarantees a litigation carousel. Another mode through which affordable-housing schemes fail.

World population has grown at exactly the same rate for the last 70 years:

https://ourworldindata.org/world-population-growth

If modellers were caught by surprise by this then they are clueless. But they weren't because population doesn't factor into models. They go straight from projections of CO2 levels, which have also grown at a constant rate:

https://gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/

So it's not clear why you bring up population growth. It's not relevant.

>> there is undeniable evidence for human emitted CO2 having an impact

What is it and how is this impact measured in an undeniable way. It can't be temperatures because they don't track CO2 levels.
SUVs have grown in popularity in Europe too. In Germany it feels like it’s becoming the new standard car class, every brand seems to have an SUV as their most popular model.

You're arguing that oil & gas companies should have standing to sue over a specific mass transit policy:

> I mean, maybe not "mass transit" in the abstract but a lot of specific mass transit policies that directly impact their business? Absolutely.

That's absurd on the face of it, and people are trying to gently point that out to you. Consider that sometimes, when "everyone else is wrong and you're right", it's because you're actually driving down the wrong side of the freeway. Shouting "You're just driving on the wrong side of the freeway because of tribal sentiments!!" isn't a magic phrase that will prevent you from hitting another car.

EDIT: I think you think this situation is akin to "well even bad people should get lawyers so that we know the rule of law is upheld". It's not. You're arguing for something closer to "well the murderer should've just murdered the witness that's testifying, and then the case would be dropped". In other words, you're arguing for something obviously unethical. Even if you believe you technically have a point, it's not a point that you should be telling other people that you want to have respect for you.

The wealth in society is the amount of stuff we have. That is related to how much stuff we produce, called the GDP for each nation.

AI makes me more efficient. I can do more in less time, and I can do it better. I am happy to do a better job for the same money.

If you are worried about losing your job, use AI to do it better. Become more productive. Get more qualifications (degrees, certifications, work experience, & references.) This is the best way to avoid falling onto a social safety net.
It's not one way consumer just like humans are not. It can direct long term evolution of reason. For starters it can be used to denoise/dedup/optimise training set to be closer to optimum (to create smaller "copies" of itself).

There are instances of things that happened (history, what Paris Hilton did say on 22nd of April etc, big database of mostly irrelevant facts) and truths (math, physics, chemistry etc) where AI can enhance discoveries by helping us to see what we have not yet realised.

Both seem endless tbh but personally I'm more interested in latter.
I can't help but think of course video calls would help a social animal that is solitary except for their human owner and maybe another species of pet. Someday I hope we will rethink how we live with animals and give them the compassion and habitat that we would want for ourselves if we were in their position. I would much prefer to visit a wonderful parrot habitat I help conserve where I can view happy flourishing parrots in the wild then own one and potentially give it Zoochosis.

A significant trend was correctly recognized in the 1980s. The idea that an "accurate prediction" 43 years into the future is required to validate this reflects the same sort of misunderstanding that leads you to be on the wrong side of this issue in the first place.

> Wealthy billions. The poor ones don't eat as much meat and dairy. And it's a good thing ... if they did, we would need not one, but 4-5 Earths to feed everyone.

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying: less energy consumption pretty much directly translates to less human flourishing. You seem to be arguing that this is a good thing (which I disagree with), but you keep supporting my claim with more evidence, so please, concede this.

> Costs are human construct. Money is just a record in someone's database. Goverments can make as much as they want. It means nothing.

This is not so. If that was the case, poor countries could become rich by their governments printing more money. Zimbabwe tried, they did get more money, but did not get any wealth.

The point here is that money represents something very real and significant, which a claim on value produced in the economy. If you just “change records in someone’s database”, you’ll only have more money chasing the same amount of goods, ie. inflation. If you, however, force people to use different, more expensive sources of energy, the impact is very real: less of stuff in total gets produced, and so the society gets to consume less in aggregate. This means less flourishing.
To be quite frank mate, if that’s what needs to happen to make housing affordable again then that’s what needs to happen. If it wasn’t for bloodshed and civil war, black people in America would still be slaves and France would still be run by tyrannical monarchs. I think it should obviously be the absolute last resort, but if the ruling classes are determined to send their countries back into feudalism for their own gain rather than share the country with a fair housing system, then maybe that’s what should happen. People aren’t asking for mansions here, they’re asking for a simple roof over their head without having to pay over 50% of their salary in rent. There’s not much difference in threatening homelessness and having a gun to one’s head. Access to shelter is a fundamental necessity of life and it’s got to be one of the only things in life worth fighting for. And a bully will take everything they can get unless you stand up to them and fight back.
Isn't it another tech-influencer LinkedIn fad BS job title to make those who are related to it feel important?
That is not as low as the Zip Recruiter number, but it's not an especially credible figure.

In fairness, the Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers are, while higher than what you shared, a lot lower than what I anticipated.

https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes111011.htm

Salary.com offers a median number over four times higher than the BLS, more in line with what I anticipated. I expect the job is defined rather differently between the two organizations, and Salary.com probably filters somehow to account for tens of millions of home businesses with "chief executives." BLS does not use the word "officer" once in their discussion of the position, which is interesting.

And then sell to someone who is willing to trade away $ sufficient to retire on for just a home. I'd say this seems crazy but we're already there. People in SF and NY sit on homes and keep working when they could sell the home and jet set for life.

Seriously, what high school did you go to? I took over a full-load every semester and it was infinitely easier than high school even with a 29hr/wk part time job (at 30 they had to give you healthcare). The classes were easier, there was less homework, I could get wasted every weekend. We still joke about how all our teachers would tell us "college is gonna be a lot harder than this."

I used to involuntarily fall asleep in the shower because I was so tired in high school.
