I have a lot of examples.
I just tried it out.
I asked
Who killed JR?
It correctly replied about JR in Dallas.

But then I said
No, I'm talking about JR in babylon 5

The response was

I apologize for the confusion. "JR" in Babylon 5 refers to the character John J. Sheridan, who was the captain of the titular space station during the later seasons of the show.

Sheridan was never refereed as JR in Babylon 5. There was no JR in Babylon 5. But because I asked, ChatGPT happily made up things.
IIRC, this seems to imply companies are colluding. Does it even matter if it's tacit or explicit collusion?
- Explicit collusion is hard to detect. Someone with interests (an exec with giant options and incentives), meets an Exec from another at dinner. They have a conversation. Who knows?
- Implicit/Tacit collusion is easy. The execs know that they can defect (lower prices) as soon as they see the other party defect. Why would a potential competitor ever think arbitrary prices that could sink at any point would be a competitive advantage worth investing in?
A better solution is to kick out the violent customer, which is what the international banking system has tried to do.

Of course he goes down the road to the next bar where he hasn’t gotten a reputation yet, we’ll see how long it takes him to get kicked out of there.
Three questions that expose my opinion on the matter:

If it can only output an amount of text that would be considered an acceptable quote in an essay, is it still infringing on copyright?

If you quote your favourite line in a song, have you broken copyright?

If you write a song that ends with a silent pause followed by the word "tonight" have you broken copyright, even if that pause was the result of probabilities in the song style and word choice? There are a bizarre number of songs that end with a pause before the word "tonight." A lot of them. Should any one of those writers call foul on your song that also does it?
That makes sense in theory, but you need to think about how the average user is going to perceive these UI choices: we're posting smaller warning for less-safe things. Put another way, the average user is going to be much more concerned about using a website with an expired certificate than a website that has no protection at all.

Put a third way: to the average user, a website behind an SSL-stripping MITM proxy is going to look more trustworthy than a website that forgot to renew their cert.
I actually don’t know. We just rolled out access to LLMs internally for the first time within the last week and both models were present when I was granted access.

So, again, what's the value proposition?

Additionally, why do these forum users generally appear to crave feedback? An evangelical who claims to have it all figured out will do their best to avoid feedback to not have their message called into question.

And, more generally, if you really do think you have it all figured out, what is the feedback going to tell you? What is the value proposition in consuming it? There is a cost to that too.

Is it conceivable that the same person would send the same type of commentary to ChatGPT?

> Your idea would suggest that they aren't even sure if they want people to vote for them, and they only ask people to vote for them in order to probe for reasons why they shouldn't be voted for.

Maybe. Like I said, you can only take a hypothetical so far. What an imagined person might think is only limited by your imagination of that person. I am not sure this can go anywhere. If you have real world experience in running for a political position, I'd love to hear about it.

> but many people love to socialize with others for its own sake.

It was recognized earlier that social interaction could potentially offer additional benefits not spoken of here, but as it is beyond the topic of conversation it is not something that has garnered attention to consider. But sending comments out to the digital void is not socialization. It is very much a solitary activity.
There is no point in constructing a fixed template JSON object like that just to parse it again.
I've been there. Find someone to talk to before you crash. And take a vacation if you can. Travel to a different country, experience something completely different. Also, find another job. All companies are different.

Stress is good if there's a lion praying on you and you need to take immediate action to avoid being eaten. With this constant work stress it's like there's a lion nearby all the time. It's difficult to enjoy a dinner in a nice restaurant if you're about to be eaten by a lion. The brain doesn't distinguish stress caused by deadlines from stress caused by a deadly animal who can attack at any time.

HTTP/3 is absolutely related to past HTTP protocols: it’s built upon HTTP semantics.

HTTP specs are also structured this way now:

• RFC 9110 defines HTTP semantics;

• RFC 9111 defines HTTP caching behaviour;

• RFC 9112 defines HTTP/1.1;

• RFC 9113 defines HTTP/2;

• RFC 9114 defines HTTP/3.

(The previous edition, RFC 7230–7235 for HTTP and HTTP/1.1, plus RFC 7240 for HTTP/2, was really a bit of a weird structure, a regression for practical use compared to RFC 2616 which 7230–7235 obsoleted. Defining version-neutral semantics and then the 1.1, 2 and 3 wire formats is a very sensible design.)

Cubic Interpolation of Quaternion
Just to be clear, there’s a reason this chart cuts off in mid 2022.

What the authors are doing is saying “well the dollar is stronger vs. other currencies. Let’s equate that with those other currencies being worth more in our hypothetical baseline.”

This is a bad analysis because

1) exchange rates aren’t like inflation. They move in random directions, so “correcting” the way they did is sort of nonsensical (if they extended the analysis to now, the US would be rapidly gaining share as the currency weak waned)

2) Currencies change value due to supply and demand. The dollar became strong because demand increased, but in this model that causes the dollar to lose share.

3) Add Argentinian pesos to this list and it’s the worlds true reserve currency.

Man, I would not want to personally know you.

This comment swings so hard at "you're a bad parent because..." that lacks any compassion for how difficult raising children. I have doubts you're a parent, but if you're a parent and are able to hold this highly judgmental opinions then your kids are the best sleepers in the world. Or perhaps have lots of help to be able to ignore everything else in life.

You're very lucky to be in a camp that can hold such opinions.
It’s not all roses - in Australia and Canada the few major banks operate in pseudo-cartel fashion. There’s few enough that they can effectively collude without doing it illegally.
A lot of hyperinflations follow this simple pattern.

The government is bankrupt for whatever reason. It has to create new money. Then inflationgets worse and the government introduces price controls. Businesses quit (or are shut down by the government for violating price controls) because they have to pay inflated prices but sell at regulated prices, ending up with a loss, inflation gets worse because of a lack of supply, more businesses quit as they start making losses.

I must remember to check this again on a day with some very significant news, because at the moment everything it's showing me is kinda below the bar of what I want to read.

It's a nice idea and looks like it's implemented well. My problem is probably that different things are significant to different people. Following that thread leads to filter bubbles, of course.

For big international (usually bad!) news I tend to go to Wikipedia Current Events: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events

Could News Minimalist have an option to only show good news with some significance? I think that might be popular and quite useful for the mental health of lots of people.

Good things do happen but they're under-reported because death, destruction and conflict draw more clicks & views. A way to surface the less depressing news would be welcome.
Nice job - I've tried to massage the outputs to be structured and sometimes it works, but sometimes it fails badly. Having a more specific set of constraints around it will definitely make it more effective.
Intercept and Inject: DNS Response Manipulation in the Wild
Where goods and services are not commodified, people are unwilling to pay switching costs ("so much is uncertain, why increase uncertainty when I don't need to?"), so long as price differences are not "too large". This implicitly puts a floor on prices as producers hold onto their customer bases and slowly raise prices on newcomers.

Where goods and services are commodified, the commodities have largely (at least in the US) been captured by oligopolies that implicitly understand that they should keep prices high, no direct collusion required. New entrants to the commodified markets (who would produce the commodities at lower prices) are nowhere to be found, as markets are highly regulated with high barriers to entry.

Break up the oligopolies and encourage entrepreneurship.

Inflation is a measure of how much things cost, not of how much money exists.

I want something GOOD like FTX running on Quickbooks. That's what people need to aspire to these days. That's why I like Wells Fargo. Create fake accounts… so absurdly brilliant.

JP Morgan might be the biggest, but I just don't have faith in them like I do Wells and Citibank or even HSBC. Some lame overly complex scheme isn't want I want. I want a decimal in the wrong place that everyone just ignores despite nothing ever adding up. I want vaults full of gold on the books that don't even exist… said to be held in countries that don't exist anymore. I want Superman 3 salami slicing, but maybe one that's been running perpetually since 1980… and it turns out that's actually the inspiration for the scam in the movie. I want Snopes to have to change something from "Legend" to "TRUE".

The world needs to be reminded that the USA is #1 and always will be.
I think it is not quite the same as the three laws. They fail because they try to apply simple, blunt rules to a complex and ambiguous problem, right?

In this case we have a fundamentally straightforward goal, everything must be paperclip. There are lots of steps in between here and paperclip nirvana, but the goal is easy to define and more or less unambiguous. It ought to be possible to communicate a strategy and jointly agree on whether or not it produces more paperclips.

It is possible that the children could be poorly designed, but this seems counter to the idea of the paperclip optimizer. It is supposed to be somehow more competent than humans (after all, it beats us), just following a strange objective.

I do not expect therapy to be like friendship and friendships can not provide the kind of help therapy is supposed to provide. Friends can try and give you huge amount of contra productive advice or judge you, simply because they do not understand the kind of issues therapy deals with.

> So, we're at a point where we need to admit that mantra isn't true in the modern age, or admit that we've done a terrible job at preventing effective monopolies/duopolies from forming.

It's objectively obvious that the latter is true, but why?

One of the reasons is regulatory capture. But another is that people have stopped believing the former.

Suppose there is a market with an existing duopoly that charges high prices and you're a rich investor who likes to make money. Popular theory says that you shouldn't enter that market because they'll just undercut you until you go out of business and then go back to charging high prices.

But how does that work? Once you've invested the money to enter the market, you're committed. The incumbents have to deal with that. If you charge slightly less than they do, they have four options. One is to ignore you and keep doing what they were doing, which would allow you to take a disproportionate share of the market. Another is to match your price. But then you still get a third of the market where you previously had none and you now have goodwill with customers because you finally caused the market price to move in the direction they like, so that's quite profitable for you. The third is to buy you out, which is you turning a profit again.

The last is to undercut you and launch a price war. But by then you've already paid to build the infrastructure needed to compete with them. It exists. Even if you were to give up, you would still have that infrastructure to sell to anyone who wanted to give it a go. And if the expectation is that prices would return to profitable levels at any point in the foreseeable future, there would be returns in doing that for anyone with money to invest. Which mitigates your risk. And means the incumbents can't eliminate the competition by doing this. They can only torpedo their own profitability. Their real options are to lose some of their market share to you or buy you out, both of which are profitable to you.

So who taught investors that doing this is not profitable?

The camera’s mechanical jitter could be stabilized in post, so it doesn’t seem like an enormous problem to me.

Cleartext HTTP is blocked for users on Microsoft Edge with "Automatically switch to more secure connections with Automatic HTTPS" turned on via corporate policy - which means they can't turn it off to get around the "feature".

There's also this chrome extension which can be configured by Corporate IT to disable HTTP and then they can also prevent disabling the extension.

FWIW, doctors have opinions as well. We are all only humans after all.

Naturally, we have higher standards for well compensated professionals and we do expect more than platitudes from such professionals.

All that said, your experience does bring up an interesting point though. At the end of the day, you are the parent. As it relates to the care for your kid, you outrank them ( with some exceptions, but those usually apply for a very good reason ). They are there to help you make a good decision, but you are not bound by their words.

Unfortunately, like in every profession, they can be 'bad' doctors or ones that don't want to learn new things or both. Not to search very far, the sugar debate is now mainstream and doctors I talked to recently acknowledged that a lot of that word of mouth 'there is too much sugar in everything' has a point to it. In their defense, there is a lot of research that supports it now, but how long did it take to make it happen?

<< today we were being lectured by our pediatrician

I hear you. It is an aggravating experience and unless there is a good reason to keep that doctor, I would consider making a change. The relationship should not be an unpleasant one. In my neck of the woods, ours recommended covid shot for our kid on the basis that 'everyone does it'. Before I had a chance to go on a rant, my wife simply said no. There was some back and forth, but no remained a no.

I could offer more stories, but I don't really want anyone to extrapolate to some general wisdom. Each case is different and every one of us have to weigh those risks.
No, technically the issue that was supposedly the straw that broke the camel's back was simply placing a transparent div on top of the video. That is not an entirely unreasonable thing to do on a video player that supports overlays captions and other features. The reality is it didn't really make any sense to develop a competing browser from scratch when they could simply fork Chrome instead.
