Uhh what? How does that work? Where do they request it? The TPM manufacturer? Microsoft?

TPMs aren't very secure and as a discrete component their connection to the CPU can be intercepted (unlike fTPM or apple's integrated solutions).. There's a big difference between having a deliberate backdoor and just a vulnerable design that can be exploited.

I haven't seen them accused of being backdoored. Intel's ME (and AMD's equivalent) perhaps but that's not the TPM.

TPMs can also be used to hide DRM keys from the user and I'm also opposed to that, but generally that stuff is hidden in other hardware. Like Google's wildvine stuff in mobile CPUs.

AI music will be cool for 10 minutes and then you realize one of the reasons you listen to music is about shared human experience. If it’s just a generated blip that everyone is generating and resharing it’ll eventually have the same appeal as blogspam. AI music will cause people to go back to seeking out performed music played on instruments or in a live setting. You'll have music sites that only allow music that has videos of humans playing/creating it. Every AI action will have an equal but opposite human reaction.
But we do know, it's just not shown on this page! E.g. the Mayan and Aztec civilisations. There is a massive amount of history than can be traced to the physical structures they built.

One cannot seriously claim that there was no History in Britain until the Romans arrived (or that nothing was / is known about it), which is what this map suggests. The ancient Greek Pytheas [0] visited Britain in approx 330 BC.

> "Newest technologies" are for early adopters and hype suckers. Engineers use proven technologies, not just "newer" for the sake of it.

This is in total opposition to the way I was taught engineering.

New technologies get used in products and projects all the time. There's a discipline called risk analysis where the pros, cons and risks of technological choices are weighted-in to take a decision on whether or not to incorporate them.

The more a given tech is used, the better it's understood, making it less risky to incorporate into larger products.
I was a free range kid (we just called it "being a kid" though). I feel bad for the kids of helicopter parents - the parent is hiding them from the world and blocking them from learning about the world as it exists and from discovering how they can/will interact with it. Then one day they cross a threshold of "number of days alive" and are expected to know how to live in the world they haven't ever been exposed to. Sounds like a derange science experiment carried out by insane control freaks more than parenting.

Writting SIMD code with intrinsics is kind of ugly / non-portable and close to assembly language.

But it is useful and given the peculiarities of those SIMD instructions, I am not convinced that it will ever be sufficient to use "vectorized" types + a few hints and let the compiler do the work. That would be nice though.

I understand the hesitation of a language design team to replicate the full intrinsics mess, they are probably hoping to find something better.

In the mean time we call still fallback to C to write SIMD heavy code.

It’s not clear whether ChatGPT and the likes would increase productivity at the organization level. And I am talking about the current GPT-4, not some hypothetical AGI. From what I have seen, a large swath of usages are basically just people DDOSing their teams with a lot of words. Things like someone in a marketing team prompting for a “detailed 10-week plan with actual numbers” that naturally have no basis on reality, but will take a lot of effort from their team to decipher the bullshit. Likewise there are also generated hundred lines of code with tests that are subtlety wrong.

Basically the challenge is fairly straightforward, if one side is machine-generated, and the other side is human-validated, the human loses 100% of the time. Either the machine has to be 100% accurate or very close to it, or the human needs tools to help him. As it stands, neither of those conditions is here yet
And SpaceX has a culture of not overbuilding. "The best part is no part", "If you're not adding back 10% of the parts you deleted, you're not deleting enough parts".

That culture is a good part of the reason they are completely wiping the floor of the competition.

The Falcon9 v1.2 is the only rocket that has flown more than 5 times and has never failed a mission so it's hard to question the SpaceX safety culture.
That’s still positive. If they want no risk, that number needs to be negative to cover the costs of holding and moving money around.

> It is ridiculous to expect the average person to dig into bank balance sheets and try to determine whether their bank is managing risk properly.

We don't: The average person does not have $250k sitting in a checking or savings account at a single bank.

SVB collapsed because they have highly correlated (due to being startups under effective, if not actual, corporate control of a few VCs), jumpy depositors. This is something regulatory rules have not incorporated into their risk frameworks (at least not sufficiently to allow for a margin of safety in times of raising interest rates).

The whole space is built around it. The reason is simple. These machine learning systems need massive amounts of data to calibrate for accuracy. They are not intelligent to somehow learn on their own. So machine learning companies have figured they can do an aggressive marketing campaign to make people think these are intelligent and uncontrollable to mask their never ending hunger for our data, hoping everyone is ignorant enough not to catch on.

What remains to be seen is whether we come back to our senses soon enough.

> No good things come from this.

Much of the art/music created in the past 100 years was done under the influence of marijuana. In addition to extremely helpful therapeutic benefits (mainly around improving sleep, diet and lowering stress). You can't make the claim that nothing good comes from marijuana. In fact, I think it would be very difficult to claim that it has a net negative effect given that you can't OD on it and people that use it don't tend to start fights, kill people, rob... like they do with alcohol and other various drugs.
The difference is that ChatGPT is literally not running when it doesn't have a prompt. It is not "looping on its own output", it's just not there.

Sentience is that internal loop you point out. LLMs (today) don't have that. When you prompt for "write a tagline for an ice cream shop", there is no identity that remembers other prompts about ice cream, or which reflects on how taglines have changed over time, or anything else. The results can be astoundingly good, even intelligent, but there's no sentience.

If you somehow turned off a person after each sentence, upon waking up to the next prompt their first thought would be "that was weird, I must have passed out", and we could use fMRI to track brain activity indicating that thought. We are even more capable of inspecting LLMs, and there is no equivalent activity. LLMs start and end with the tokens going in and out, and a huge matrix that transforms them.

I'm generally an open minded, probabilities-rather-than-certainties person, but I'd say the odds of LLMs having sentience that we can't detect are about the same as the odds of a television having sentience that we can't detect: as close to zero as we can measure.

If one runs the command until last week or so it exited (with failure) but pointed out that it is deprecated and provided a link to https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/register/index.html

gitlab-runner register

documentation pages that once again stated the obvious. No difference at all. Then you rerun the command - same bounce out. No clue. The docs linked at the URL still say to use the --registration-token.

finally (after digging into stackexchange and gitlab issue) one needs to run the command without

--non-interactive

No where in the documentation it (until last week) that this should be removed for registering a runner as of today (last few months).
> People want zero risk, demand deposits that pay interest. There’s no business model that can provide that.

> It would be perfectly possible for a business to provide zero risk demand deposits—-but the business would have to charge customers for its custodial operations rather than making money by writing loans

That was true when we lived with 0% interest rates. Now, there’s no reason why a narrow bank couldn’t take deposits, stick them in with the fed providing 4% interest, and keep 25% of that for itself to cover its costs, passing 3% onto the customer.

Except they wont get a banking license issued if they state thats what they intend to do, because the system depends on people depositing money with banks that make risky loans, so that the risk is spread across lots of people.

It shows China and Taiwan as the same color, but they are labeled separately. This is technically correct as far as I’m aware, as both the PRC and ROC claim that they are the legitimate government of both China and Taiwan.

China and Taiwan are operated with separate governments and are effectively separate countries, but politically it’s quite a mess. Few countries recognize Taiwan as a separate country from China officially, even if that’s what they believe off the record.

Not sure why you are attempting to conflate a LLM product offering vs. these other companies (except maybe GitHub copilot which only has public repos as training data). What you enter into ChatGPT becomes part of its training data unless you use the extremely recently available opt-out option. Once it becomes part of the training data it will end in many outputs to entities beyond your control. OpenAI doesn't have enough safeguards to prevent every single instance of such leaks and it is infeasible for them to implement safeguards for every single instance of such leaks.
It’s not simpler… probably still cheaper. There’s also the month and whether it was stolen from/to etc. Most accurate record is DMV database.
Ask HN: What tools do you use for personal knowledge base and tasks management?
I've been reviewing Notion templates for Second Brain and GTD style productivity management.

Most of my personal knowledge base is in Notion. I'm leaning towards Tiago Forte's Second Brain methodology of organizing knowledge into actionable PARA categories (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives) with GTD style task management.

There are several new Notion templates that use the new buttons feature and linked databases to provide a robust personal productivity workflow.

Key features:
- Second Brain system for organizing everything
- GTD database for managing tasks
- Save to Notion web clipper
- Integration with Readwise for e-book clippings
- Zettlekasten style linking between notes & tasks
- Recurring tasks for weekly, monthly, and yearly reviews

With the new Notion features, it seems like the right time to overhaul my entire productivity system.

Please share your experience with Second Brain or another system for managing your work and personal life.

Why do you expect this from Mozilla but not Microsoft, Google, Apple,...?
Pretty much all of what you wrote is a consideration, but everyone probably has their own preferences (and in some part it's affected by writing angle and penmanship habits). Certain nib styles are better suited to different ways of holding a pen. And there's a lot more to it, since different papers react in different ways to different nibs, and inks are another wide-ranging variable.

I think many people get drawn into the hobby for the endless pursuit of matching pens, papers, and inks, or trying to optimize for various characteristics across different combinations of the above. Of course a lot of people don't bother and just find one that works well enough and leave it at that.
Cool. Here's how to do it:

1. Migrate off of GitHub.

Yeah it's not exploiting bugs, it's abusing websites. To me hacker mentality ends at you found the REST call, and maybe you use it, or share it on some random forum.

Creating a gaudy branded library that's providing actual client implementations, then building an entire site that's built on those, is just bad taste

If you actually look at the implementation, some of the sites did everything right in terms of CSRF tokens and not exposing their OpenAI key directly. So the next step for the sites they're attacking with this is a whole mess of JS based detection, behavior detection, ie all the mess that we'd rather the internet didn't have.

If this person had just shared it anonymously and left it instead of drumming it up for personal glory, some motivated hackers would have used it. Now it's flooding websites at rates that break their ability to pay their bills.

That's sort of my point. They don't actually care, they help you because you pay them. I don't know if it's how I grew up or what, but this is somehow off-putting to me. I mean, I'm not against paying for services in general, but the sort of human interaction that therapy provides seems me like something that we should be able to get without money.
