There is a difference between what we shipped is defective and that defect makes it unsafe and we could update it and bring new safety features. Defects are addressed in recalls, they are expensive, automakers plan for some amount of them, they should try to minimize that as much as possible, but recalls are screw ups, not bonus updates.

Animals are conscious, yes? They may not be as intelligent as humans but they still perceive their environment, have internal drives/desires, make decisions, play, plan routes, solve mazes/puzzles, hunt, have some forms of language communication, some use tools, exploit their surroundings, learn new things, cooperate/work in groups and so on.

If one built an AGI that was at the intelligence level of say, a rat or mouse. How would one go about proving it had the same capacity for consciousness as that rat or mouse?

True, and they work remarkably well as preamps. Only problem is that they're becoming scarce, at least in THT case, and a lot of people has been burned by online sellers who sent them relabeled BJTs. To my knowledge, J201 and many 2SK* low noise ones haven't been manufactured for years, most reliable sellers don't have them in stock anymore, and those sold online by generic sellers are almost invariably either relabeled random ones (if lucky) or the 1st thing they had at hand, which often is a BJT, not even a jFET.

However, if you don't need lots of gain a decent preamp can be built around the venerable 2N7000. Yes, that's a MOSFET, definitely not aimed at audio, but it's dirt cheap, available everywhere ...and noisy. But if you keep the gain to reasonable levels it works quite well.

Here's some info.

Worth noting that policymakers in the EU have long recognised that Europe's small capital markets and over-reliance on banks is a problem and hampers economic recovery/growth. The Capital Markets Union project[0] is largely about trying to build deeper capital markets so that savers have other places to put their money and companies have other ways to raise financing. The rise of MMFs isn't necessarily a bad thing if that money can be effectively channelled back into the real economy.

There are various rules of thumb in the prepper communities but it's something like:

* 2 weeks supply of food, water, heat, and cash
* 2 months supply of similar but in longer-term forms (often precious metals go here; ones that are "well known" are the best, like junk silver)

Beyond that it's up to personal discretion and location, but the two week rule is a good one, in my opinion. 90% of "hiccups" are done in two weeks.
I also think a lot of programmers could get a sort of enlightenment by getting very proficient in SQL. (To the point where you can do general programming in it using recursive CTEs if you have to, even though probably impractical for real use cases.)
Counterpoint: I've been using Hue bulbs for over 10 years, currently have around 120 lights operating and have had maybe a 5% failure rate (mostly 2nd and 3rd generation A19 bulbs). Flicker due to PSU failure, some completely dead bulbs, some which have lost specific colors in the array (maybe FET failure) so they turn weird colors (like green or purple) at certain white temperature settings.

I suspect the cause is mostly heat-related. As newer bulbs run much cooler I expect reliability will be better, but the product line is definitely not bullet-proof.
> MLIR didn't even exist when Julia was created. A language that can really take advantage of MLIR, and is designed from the ground up for modern accelerators, is not something that can be readily created by tweaking Julia AFAICT.

MLIR is another level of intermediate representation that sits at a higher level than LLVM-IR. Should the Julia folks decide that MLIR would offer advantages for optimization it wouldn't be difficult for them to add in an MLIR intermediate stage - that's kind of the whole point of an IR. But again, that would take some development effort - if the kind of investment that Mojo was getting were available for Julia it would get done. Nothing about the language itself would need to be impacted, it's the mid and backend where MLIR can offer advantages.
What bothers me more is that it’s more like “this isn’t amazing because it’s just xyz,” when in fact it’s amazing that it is just xyz yet does what it does. The fact we’ve produced a (perhaps poor) simulacrum of the collective mind of humanity by feeding it the collective online works of humanity is frankly amazing. Anyone who argues about stochastic parrots has lost the capacity to dream.

I’m also a bit of a hippy in that I’m not sure I believe in intellectual property in this way. I am an old free software in the rms sense guy (http://www.jwz.org/hacks/why-cooperation-with-rms-is-impossi...). I believe in trademark and copyright protection to the extent artists and authors and creators can monetize their work without plagiarism or worse unrewarded reproduction. But I also think remixing music, publishing excerpts, quoting, indexing, and, yes, training models in aggregate on otherwise trademark and copyrighted material is fair use.

I know these models can produce stuff that would violate fair use, however the use of that production from the model is what is the violation not that the model can violate fair use. Photocopiers can also violate fair use in similar ways if done in a way that violates fair use.

An issue people bring up is the model can’t attribute material produced to a copyright or license. That’s fair, and I think for code licensing it is the thorniest. But that isn’t the model itself that’s in violation. It’s the use of its output without any attempt to verify whether it’s encumbered or not. That to my mind is a second order problem that companies offering code authoring products need to tackle, and is frankly a simple information retrieval problem.

And what a typical issue that is. Opened a year ago, initially some requests for internal clarification that went nowhere, plans to be fixed by an upcoming release, then loads of metadata and bot comments with minimal actual work happening, followed by pushing back the release they want to fix it in, followed by reducing its priority, deciding that actually they don't need to fix it and can just throw it on the backlog, more comments about users being affected, and then today a comment that it got brought up in a discussion here:)
I like working with next but some of these changes in 13 kinda suck. Router especially, I inherited a codebase that didn't wrap a lot of functionality so hard changes to the way useRouter works from 12 to 13 means I can't reasonably upgrade anytime soon.
Especially if you consider that as compute costs decrease, so does the ability of scale players to process larger datasets.

If we extrapolate that relation, you eventually reach a point where the biggest player can collect and process the most information and produce an ever-evolving model to maintain that relation.

I find the premise of this argument to be quite odd. I live in an area with a lot of Hispanic immigrants. You see all these men who are average looking, don’t have time to hit the gym (statistically more likely to be overweight than white Americans), short as far as Americans go, and doing low status jobs, and they all have wives or girlfriends. Perhaps it’s the particular social dynamics in that community. But I suspect there’s a big component that’s things that are entirely under men’s control—working, dating to marry, etc. I mean, the fact that you frame this as a choice between porn and having a relationship with a woman kinda proves that point.

I’d go a step further and suggest that porn is a cause of these men’s problems. The availability of porn eliminates their incentive to go out and do things to become a desirable mate.
You cannot make 80s lightguns work on an LCD. When you pulled the trigger, the system drew out a few white boxes where the targets are, and how long it took the gun to "see" white told you which box you were aiming at, because of the raster functionality of the electron gun. LCDs always output an entire screen at once, so that cannot work.

Westinghouse has made nuclear submarine reactors.

The UK small modular reactor project is being run by Rolls-Royce who make the equivalent submarine reactors.

Both SMR projects seem to be about 10x the power output of a submarine reactor. I'm guessing they have to use a very different level of fuel enrichment than is in subs.
Considering the nature of AI systems, it seems this would create monopolies in various domains and AI devs will never exceed a single digit share of the IT workforce.
I've tried using other products that were "cheaper". They work at first, but then issues. First, I bought a compatible bulk LED strip. The listing suggested the power supply to use, but it was way too weak to push the entire strip. Luckily, I bought the strip to cut into sections for using in multiple places. The suggested power supply was still to weak for the smaller sections. Knowing how to calculate the draw per inch of strip length is imperative. Once that was done, the strip itself left a lot to be desired. I bought the proper controller for the RGBWW config, and once synced, the color settings would drift. I would set them in the Hue app, and once happy just forget about it and go about my day. After some time, the color would just be different. After some time, I noticed that one section of my strip had smoked all of the LEDs for one color. Luckily the did not result in a fire, but every LED in this section is clearly burned and obviously no longer working. The other LEDs in the RGBW are working still.

In the end, it would have been cheaper and less time consuming had I just bought the Philips Hue strips.
There's such a small amount of high-level waste that even a 30x increase isn't going to be that big of an issue, even if you don't count waste recycling.
The notion that diverse groups produce better innovation is a thoroughly researched and widely accepted tenet of modern organizational behavior research.[0] I grabbed the top google results for it, but I learned about it in school a decade ago.

And like the other commenter noted, the Institutes component seems focused on fostering new AI talent all over the country, so ergo a part of that will be making its resources accessible to many different groups of people. A claim that this initiative would be more effective in its stated goals by confining its educational resources to a single population demographic seems like it would also demand research and concrete evidence. Would that even be legal?

"Diverse" is one keyword in a whole paragraph about introducing an NSF funded program to provide educational resources for new workers to skill up on AI. America is a diverse country: Of course a program that serves all of America with that stated goal would create a diverse workforce. I'm a little confused why the top discussion on this thread has seized on that single word with such outrage.

The article points out they were previously hit a few privacy issues. There was an FTC order in 2012 which the FTC claimed Facebook violated with in months. So they got a 2019 order encouraging them to follow the 2012 order. Now this order encourages them to follow the 2019 and 2012 orders.

Macro/concatenative languages should replace the Forth line. The author is off-base in thinking RPN or stacks are important to Forth rather than concatenativity.

I moved to CO from the bay area a couple of years ago.

I couldn't tell you what created the initial imbalance, but it feels like at this point what sustains it is a simple positive-feedback loop. To generalize, when relatively liberal, educated, wealthy people from the coasts want a different lifestyle (work-life balance, better outdoor access, less density, etc.) they move to CO because that where others like them have moved, which further bolsters that reputation.

From what I know, it's kind of like Austin in that the its reputation as a progressive outpost in TX just attracts more of those people.

I don't question it at this point anymore and just marvel at the mathematical validity of it all.

> you can't reasonably retry the printf

That’s changing the subject. The comment I replied to claimed “the underlying device lost its ability to output data”, not that retrying wasn’t an option. My point is that the call can fail even though the device is fine.

> printf doesn't need to malloc

The standard allows it to do so, and https://stackoverflow.com/a/6743056 claims glibc did that in 2011. Looking at https://github.com/lattera/glibc/blob/895ef79e04a953cac14938... and https://github.com/lattera/glibc/blob/895ef79e04a953cac14938..., it seems vfprintf still can do that today, but I didn’t check whether printf can call that.

> and "still can't recover from that".

See above; I never claimed that. Also, this action (in general) isn’t recoverable, but programs sometimes can recover from out of memory conditions, for example by clearing their caches or by freeing a block of memory specially allocated at startup to ensure some recovery from an out of memory condition is possible.
Yep, except now it's all of NYC that has the "property owner on the hook for any short term rentals".

Rough math... let's say a doorman costs $200/day ($70k/year). 20 units in the building. This would amount to $10/day/unit and thus a rent increase of $300/month for everyone.

For a one bedroom rental, that would represent a 15% increase (on average) for rent increase (based on https://www.apartmentlist.com/rent-report/ny/new-york ).

Note that the long term sublet isn't necessarily a problem - it's the situations where someone is renting out their apartment for less than 30 days and are not occupying it themselves during that period of time.

So now that the property owner is going to be issued a violation if there is an illegal short term rental, how does the property owner prevent that? Note that it is legal to rent out a bedroom of a 2 bedroom apartment on a short term basis if the person who holds the rental lease is there the entire time.
Probably, this sounds like a plausible explanation.
