Thanks for sharing it but I'm sorry I don't agree that it's so important. In my opinion almost every interesting thing about LLMs comes from the raw base model, which is before the RLHF is applied.

For example the simulators paper was written before ChatGPT was even released, based on research with the GPT-3 base model that only had text completion and no instruction tuning or any kind of RLHF or lobotomization. In another example, in the interviews with the people who had access to the base model of GPT-4 like the red teamers and the ones at microsoft who integrated it with bing, they consistently explain that the raw base pretrained model has the most raw intelligence which is deadened as they put RLHF and guardrails onto it.
I've been using osm more and more recently. Google just makes a bunch of frustrating decisions that really pushed me to look elsewhere.

> Linux won in servers and supercomputing, but not in end user computing.

Pardon the side discussion, but I think this is because of a few things.

1. OS-exclusive "killer apps" (Office, anything that integrates with an iPhone)

2. Games

The killer apps have better alternatives now, and games are starting to work better on Linux. Microsoft's business model no longer requires everyone to use Windows. (Mac is another story.) So I think that, at least for non-Macolytes, Linux end user dominance is certainly on the horizon.
> The legal questions surrounding the site are as interesting as the site itself.

The legality issues around copyright-of-material-cycled-through-an-AI-model, but the “is it okay to use other people’s trademarked names and copyrighted promotional images to promote what is directly presented as a commercial site soliciting payment” isn’t a particularly interesting or novel legal question, and I think that’s the big one this site faces.

I've been a daily i3 user for 6+ years. My initial exposure to tiling window managers was through Ion 2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_(window_manager) maybe ~15y ago. Back then I was still using Windows on my primary computer for various reasons, but after playing around with Ion 2 it started to feel cumbersome.

I had been using AutoHotkey for some simple macros before and after reading the documentation with more thought, I set out to mimic some aspects of the tiling WM experience. The outcome was this script https://gist.github.com/ristomatti/f075020025cf870aaf8f73a93.... It looks like a quick hack now (as it was) but I remember confirming it still worked on at least Windows 10 (it was written at the time of Windows 2000 IIRC).

The script is badly documented and I barely remember writing it but what it should support is:

- focusing adjacent windows directionally using win+arrows

- win+left click to move a window around based on a 3x3 grid (click top left moves to top left)

- win+right click to resize a window to grow in the direction of the clicked region of the window

- win+middle click to select a specific window, then win+middle click on an empty space on the desktop to move and resize the window to fill in the gap

- support multiple monitors
Nice, this is great for the user.

Try a moderately oxidized oolong or a shou puer first imo. They have a lot (or more) of the robustness of black tea without as much tannin. Japanese green teas are technically very fine but they are usually extremely vegetal, and likely to be strange or disappointing if you're not specifically seeking that.

Matcha is basically an entirely different drink with separate preparation tools and quality criteria etc. It's a fun thing to get into if you want a mildly hobby-like source of caffeine.
Beware that there’s also a ton of bias when something is analyzed internally. As Upton Sinclair once said “It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”

In the case of this analysis - it sounds great but it’s wrong. OpenAI has a huge moat. It has captured the mind share of the world. The software it has shipped is dramatically better than anything anyone else has shipped (the difference between useless and useful). We’ll see if folks catch up, but the race is currently OpenAI’s to lose.
With the passkey you provide a second factor. Instead of the second factor being hacked into the auth system it’s pushed down the stack into the standards that power passkeys (WebAuthn and FIDO2).
My feeling on this is “f** yeah, and f** you [google et al]”

How much computing innovation was pioneered by community enthusiasts and hobbyists that have been leveraged by these huge companies.

I know meta, googlr, msft et al give back in way of opensource, but it really pales in comparison to the value those companies have extracted.

I’m a huge believer in generative AI democratizing tech.

Certainly I’m glad to pay for off-the-shelf custom tuned models, and for software that smartly integrates generative AI to improve usage, but not a fan of gate keeping this technology by a handful of untrustworthy corporations.
I became addicted to caffeine in graduate school. After many years, I finally quit entirely 5 months ago, simply because I no longer wanted to be addicted to it or schedule my activities around it.

The key was to cut down my caffeine intake very slowly, over the course of many weeks, instead of trying to go cold turkey. It takes patience, but I never experienced withdrawal symptoms.

I feel fine now and have no intention to go back. I do occasionally have a cup of green tea, maybe once a week at most, but there's no danger of my returning to my old habit.

Data is still valuable and you can build a moat with it. But this discussion isn't about data, it's about models.

A better analogy would be paywalled
general-purpose programming languages, where any access to running code is restricted. Such a programming language would get virtually no mindshare.

This Google employee is just saying, let's not make that mistake.

Even if Google fired all AI researchers tomorrow and just used open source models going forward, they could still build killer products on them due to their data moat. That's the takeaway.

5% latency overhead is huuuge. Throw more memory and focus on throughout. Not sure why memory is a concern here.
Yes, but the number of things you want to synchronize on in real-life code is limited, and, certainly at the time, memory was scarce. I think only allowing ‘synchronized’ on containers and allowing programmers to opt-in on them would have been the better choice.

> Plus an inherent assumption of mutable data.

Yet, Strings and the boxed value types (Integer, Long, etc.) are immutable, and you can synchronize on them (or does this matter less for those because of the granularity of the memory allocator?)

You know what would make even more money for the owners? People having less rights. Say, working people for 12 hours a day and throw them out when they are no longer as productive as some arbitrary set goal.

So you would have no issue with owners lobbying to change the law so they make even more money, right? As you said, more money is the only goal.

What would you say if it's you who is worked to death? See, everybody thinks they will be an owner, a master if you will in this system. But it's more likely you would be another sla.... ahem... valued employee.

I grew up around cars, and car builders. I've worked on quite a few very famous cars. My father built custom cars and ran "Barris Kustom" for years. I learned how to build custom cars, including race cars.

I also spent years designing and building cars (vans) that quadriplegics could drive and lots of those were for guys who crashed, or got ran into by cars/motorcycle, at high speeds.

Personally, I think if anyone crashes a car that they were paying a fee to a car company to make their car go that fast that car company should be held accountable and libel for any and all damages and deaths that occur from that.

I'm sure others would disagree, but I don't care. Odds are they've never spent any time at all working with those who were paralyzed because some dumbass smashed into them at high speeds.
I'm going on a limb as they're going in every direction and trebuchet-ing goalposts, but I'd assume they're talking about using an SoA structure, so instead of having a bunch of Foo objects each with a header and, say, an `int` field (so two words of header for half a word of payload) you have a single header at the top of the array, then an int value per record in the packed array.

The ACP100 is the first small LWR to be constructed and is close to completion

https://nucleus.iaea.org/sites/INPRO/df13/Presentations/011_...

The BWRX300 from GE is coming on strong in terms of orders, it is parallel to the AP300 as it can be seen as a cut down version of the ESBWR which unfortunately never got built.

On one hand the small LWR might solve the constructibility problem of the large LWR but the whole reason the LWR got big is that the economics of an LWR are better than a small LWR on paper. Probably the best way to solve the constructibility problem of the large LWR is to solve the constructibility problem of the large LWR which the Russians seem to have done in that they are building VVER 1200s on a routine basis in Russia but also in Turkey, Egypt, China and other places.

I wonder how much of the trouble the first AP1000s had was due to being the first (took forever to figure out how to make the primary coolant pump) and how much is intrinsic to the design. If the world had committed to building one a year would it eventually have become routine?

One compelling reason is the nature of the US Civil Service. In the vast majority of cases, US government employees are extremely hard to fire or lay off for any reason. As a result, each government agency only keeps a small core of staff that are direct employees and the vast majority of work is done by contractors whose employment can ebb and flow with the whims of congressional funding.
That's also why I think OpenAI is in a tough spot in the long run. They just threw as much expensive hardware as they could to build this moat. There's basically two things which can happen from now on:

- Some scalability breakthrough will appear, if that's the case their moat disappears pretty much instantly and the cost of LLMs will plunge close to zero being a commodity. That's the future I'm betting on from what's happening now.

- No scalability breakthrough will appear and then it means that they will have a hard time to expand further as seen as the gpt4 limited access.

Either way, they are in a tough spot.
I don't mean to get in the weeds here, but this is still bad, as the Padé approximation[1] (which is what you're actually really looking for) is magnitudes better than the Maclaurin series (which is just a special case of the Taylor expansion).

Keep in mind that I'm not even an expert (I merely earned a minor in math). In fact, I only know this because I did some research years ago on rational approximations of hyperbolic functions. The right answer gets clipped to -1 or 1 beyond (-3, 3), but it should look like: `x * ( 27 + x * x ) / ( 27 + 9 * x * x )`—though the coefficients (and clip range) can vary.

A more powerful car is usually more expensive, always has been.
>tons of potential

I agree there's a lot of potential, but IMO forces working against pop growth potential is increasing. I'm more weary of associate pop growth with assumed developement potential, there some analysis showing old pop heavy export oriented industrial model working less well - trend last few decades is industrialization opportunites being milked dryer sooner and at lower levels of income. What helped East/South Asia is may not be uplift LATAM or Africa to nearly same degree. Geopolitics and labour saving technologies is going to remove a lot of human potential from being realized, meanwhile a lot of the govs of developing countries are futzing hard themselves.

I'm feeling we're entering era where developing opportunties will be limited, and more people will simply mean more people left behind. And if developed countries with declining pops decide to pivot to immigration, brain drain from developing countries is going to get harsh, especially with opennings in western highered if PRC decides to turn off talent taps i.e. PRC demphasising English to limit talent flow out in future gens. If India gets wise decides to not export their demographic divident away, that's ~2M extra braindrain west will be taking from global south. Countries with 1B+ may have surplus to keep going, large countries with 100s of millions may not.

TLDR is I think potential is going to be harder to realize going forward.
