skysight-inc/HackerNews huggingface dataset:
Natural allies, it's weird that they're not already grafted together somehow.

IMHO, the ultimate feature-set would be:

* IIAB content library support, especially the new map features which rock

* wrolpi-like tagging and automatic updating when connected to the internet

* Othernet updating of content when satellite signal is available

* Toosheh extractor for unpacking files saved in an mpeg-ts on a USB stick

* Local Fdroid app repo

* Piratebox-like file drop area

* BBS or local forum message-board

* Mesh with other nodes, perhaps using NNCP or Scuttlebutt protocols to exchange messages over spotty connectivity or traveling relay nodes

If I had any software clue whatsoever, I'd be actively trying to graft all these things together.
> Human brains are massively parallel

Yes, and also massively recurrent. The amount of immediate state in a brain is huge, and our current computers have a really hard time accessing comparable amounts of memory. (As in, the time to load a brain-sized dataset from RAM into a CPU is on the order of days to years.)

If there exists some easy to design intelligence that we are close to create, it can't look nothing like our brains.
Just watch out for battery degradation, at some point the % shown will not mean anything.

Even at 100% the battery won't be able to give enough power to even stay ON unless plugged in all the time. This is why we need removable and easily replaceable batteries as most devices are 2-3 years of regular use will have a degraded battery.

First world problem but I get the point, it's a chore but chores by their definition are supposed to be 'chores'.

gRPC does not give you any form of type safety. Even if you assume protobuf entities over gRPC, protobuf also does not give you any form of type safety.

Well implementing all the OOP semantics and such could complicate and dilute the essentials. A simpler language would also make it easier to cover more ground, such as type checking.
So I don't think it sounds ideal from a pedagogical perspective either, but again, I haven't read the book.

Note that Lisp in Lisp (SICP) works well because Lisp itself is very simple and just the essentials. It's just one chapter in SICP.
I'm wondering what is going to happen to the banking sector as the commercial real estate apocalypse starts to manifest in full ... banks have a lot of interest bearing loans for commercial real estate that is going to continue turning into increasing quantities of illiquid pure junk in the very near term as leases end coincident with a mass cost cutting environment and occupancy rates drop even more ... obviously this has been a concern for awhile but seems like we are approaching a real inflection point
Companies also use this to throw out lowball salary offers to candidates, on the assumption that it's showing accurate number for their current job.

I have one of those Bluetooth keyboards and mice that allow multiple paired devices. There's a button on each to allow you to switch. That's pretty handy to have it paired with my old Android device and be able to pop over and use my tmux sessions.
I don't think so. There is no pipeline for them. Nobody can make a career of working temp jobs for long hours and make 15K a year. These people need to switch careers. Professional managements don't hire from among the PhDs who were unsuccessful in their academic career.
That's a brilliant perspective - I love it!
I hadn't thought of it in quite those terms, but I have one project where I'm constantly trying to keep the code footprint round about the 12k mark, and I've come of think of that as "bonsai programming" - patiently and meticulously trimming and shaping to avoid sprawl and bloat!

> The top 1% has 40% of the wealth ... Money sitting in a bank accounts

I can assure you, the wealthy are not keeping their net worth under a mattress. They are purchasing and paying for assets like property and businesses.

Not that they can't have cash they are waiting to deploy (AAPL, MSFT, & GOOG sure do) but they are wealthy because they own assets and use that to purchase other assets.
But the question is who gave this one guy right to surround our earth like this? As the power of individuals grow is there going to be any oversight to ensure a consensus is reached collectively before someone decide to do something like this?

Our minds are optimal with respect to size and energy supply and birthing process. An AI has no such limitations. All the wrinkles in our brain gave us enough intelligence to outsmart everything else on earth. That amount of surface area increase with that mutation is nigh negligible if you start scaling things to the size of a room. And an AI can be the size of a warehouse.

Also, faster is understated. You are talking about the speed difference between chemical gradients and the speed of light.

This could allow use some training methods similar to alpha go zero.

I'm thinking if training ai to output edits instead of next token would be enough.

Training would be similar to currently used: just provide some sentences with missing words and asks model to edit those placeholders.

Then hopefully ai would learn how to iteratively built response until it's good enough.

This could allow ai to spot it's errors in the middle of output and start refactoring what it already generated and add some notes (thoughts) that it could later remove as scratchpad.

It could iterate on its context much more so it could have chance to "think" about it

Considering how difficult getting this kind of dataset is, I would say that using r/askdocs would be a great place to start. Doctors' responses are labeled as such and the subreddit looks healthy and well moderated. Of course it's not perfect and it's important to point out possible issues with using r/askdocs, but I don't think your criticism of reddit being snarky or jaded holds much weight here.

Answering the immediate question: KPIs. The company is prepping for an IPO 2H2023,[1] trying to juice engagement, advertising, and revenue stats, and is well down the enshittification track: <https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/#hey-guys> (Doctorow's describing a different site, but the dynamic is identical in cause and consequence.)

As to what to do about it:

- I'm pretty sure RES (Reddit Enhancement Suite) will kill this. Even if it doesn't, it's worth using regardless. You'll also want to visit old.reddit.com rather than the default site. <https://redditenhancementsuite.com/>

- Stop using Reddit. I largely have despite investing over a decade in a reasonably-useful-to-me bloggish subreddit. Cakeday threads are increasingly ironic. <https://teddit.net/r/dredmorbius/comments/ywhz7s/happy_caked...>

- If you have to use it, go through the Teddit front end: <https://teddit.net/about> You can simply replace "reddit.com" with "teddit.net" in any URL, or install a redirector browser extension such as LibRedirect: <https://github.com/libredirect/browser_extension>

- Look to alternative discussion sites. I'm a member of (though fairly rare participant these days) Tildes <https://tildes.net>. There's a Federated Reddit alternative as well, Lemmy: <https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy>. Probably others.

- Spend your time more wisely. I'm finding online content vastly unrewarding in general, with few exceptions. Wikipedia for reference, and a few other informational sites. I'll check text-only news (there was a great HN discussion on this a few weeks back: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35313232> based on <https://blog.wturrell.co.uk/text-only-news-websites/>). Mostly though I rely on articles, books, or (carefully curated) podcasts.

Hacker News is a quite-good link aggregator. If you want even more discriminating selections, check the curated collections:

- "best" <https://news.ycombinator.com/best>

- "invited" <https://news.ycombinator.com/invited>

- or "pool" (2nd-chance submissions) <https://news.ycombinator.com/pool>

You can also use Algolia Search to show the top items from the past week, month, or year, according to HN's vote and activity stats, by submitting a blank search and selecting the appropriate date range:

- Best of past week: <https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastWeek&page=0&prefix=fal...>

- Best of past month: <https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=fa...>

- Best of past year: <https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=fal...>

(You can also specify your own preferred date bounds, though that's more awkward.)

HN's discussion quality varies, but it's well above the general level of Reddit, popular subreddits most particularly.

When you say “He told me which tool I could use”, did you mean the doctor told you, or was that a typo and you meant that ChatGPT told you which tool and walked you through it? Seemed like the latter, but was too ambiguous to assume.
TL;DR: yes, but if outlandishness crosses over to deceit, you risk penalties.

Anyone can file a lawsuit if they pay the filing fees.

If they hire a lawyer, the lawyer must uphold the ethical standards of the bar, which carry suspension/disbarment penalties. Those standards generally include a good-faith belief in the legal merits of your client's case, adherence to all laws and court procedures, speaking up when you believe a law is about to be broken, etc.

The client (you) will eventually be called as a witness, and you can go to jail if you lie on the stand or otherwise present false evidence. Unfortunately, the penalties seem to happen a lot less often than the perjury. That's partly because perjury is a criminal offense, carrying a higher burden of proof than a civil claim.
Fully agree with everything.

I ran into my old boss, who was a family friend, and he told the story that they used that as an example to improve other stuff, and that had saved a few million bucks over the years (iirc they paid for CPU cycles). It was still running as of 2020!

Yes, I believe that both you and the graph agree with me.

The 1st derivative line of the CO2 levels is very noisy (as derivatives almost always are), but it seems to me that it shows a steady increase until it hit a peak in 2015 and now is decreasing. Hard enough to see in the derivative graph and completely impossible to see in the absolute CO2 level graph. So 2nd derivative of CO2 is now finally pointing in the right direction.

And the absolute CO2 level is approximately the first derivative of the temperature. So in other words we've only turned the 3rd derivative of temperature in the right direction. If it stays negative, over time that will eventually turn the 2nd and 1st derivatives. It's time we don't have if our goal is 1.5 degrees, but it's enough time to avoid 6 degrees. Where in the middle will we land?

I specifically said that I'm not criticizing the article or science journalism, but I edited my comment to further clarify that I'm only using the article as an example to tangent into a related issue. The actual facts and conclusions about the temperature are immaterial. I barely snuck in the edit before the time limit, so it's still probably not as clear as it should be.

I had to do another edit earlier when I realized that I had inadvertently invited criticism of science journalism, again despite the fact that I said I wasn't criticizing it. Maybe I should have followed my own advice and opened by saying it's a tangent.
After sleuthing Q1 earnings earlier this past week, it's becoming quite evident that the US is entering into stagflation territory.
