Cedar Point and King's Island would like a word. ;-)

Obviously, roller coaster's aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I've often heavily considered moving to Sandusky, Ohio after I retire just so I can spend all day every day at Cedar Point.
I guess that is where Europe differs. They look more into what you currently earn (and how stable you are at jobs) than past debts.

So, if I have been making $100K for 6 years at the same company, with no credit card (I only used debit in Europe because there was very little incentive for me to use credit card that I pay at the end of the month), even though I have never had a debt before, they would be willing to give me loan. While in US, with no credit card before, they could not.

This sounds a lot like saying that people with a predisposition to lung cancer are drawn to cigarettes.

The issue is that it is not clear cut at all.

Psychosis is a positive symptom.

But by changing the neuro-transmitter balance when treating psychosis with anti-psychotic medication, negative symptoms can also appear.

Depending on who establishes the diagnostic, you can be diagnosed as schizophrenic while you are simply in one of the phase (acute or post) of psychosis.

In general, if you repeatedly suffer from bouts of psychosis, you will get a diagnosis even though the real trigger has not been established.

Also, the presence of negative and/or positive symptoms differs from people to people so even that is not clear-cut.
Natural language is the most flexible interface. You can easily substitute one service to another service. There is not much lock in factor. It's literally just one API endpoint with variable-length string input, variable-length string output.

The main area I can see for lock-in is in the fine-tuning of models for specific customers and problem domains. I think this is what OpenAI is focusing on and why their fine-tuning prices are not as expensive as I expected. They make it cheap to fine-tune but then they charge extra when you use the fine-tuned models (they shift the cost to the customer later, over time after some investment/lock-in has been established). But for most problem domains, it's probably not that expensive to finetune a model from scratch on a different provider.
Ok but this is from the guy that created LLVM, Clang, and Swift… This is the real deal, he has no reason to exaggerate or lie.

> Would be cool if a DNS server or provider offered credentials that could only do ACME challenges

There's nothing preventing you from making the DNS record a CNAME to something under a zone that you're allowed to modify.

This is how one of my setups works; _acme-challenge.someservice.example.net is a CNAME to someservice.acme.example.net, and acme.example.net is served by a bind9 that allows dynamic zone updates based on TSIG-signed DNS update requests over WireGuard.

So the machine that hosts someservice has a DDNS key that signs DNS update requests for someservice.acme.example.net, and bind9 is configured to allow that key to change that record.
Yeah that won't fly. Data needs removing from all output, current or old.
Part of it is that Google's exec compensation is oddly structured. His compensation for the previous year was $6 million, though that still makes him better compensated than Cook.
you’re right… I didn’t even consider that OTZ
Why downplay Tim Cook? If it is so obvious what to do why isn’t Microsoft a bigger company?

Why make disruptive changes? Stay the course and refine. That’s apple, and that’s why they’re the biggest.

That’s also why they didn’t foolishly overhire and why layoffs were not necessary for them.

And finally, why wouldn’t include dividends? SMH

Specifically, a runtime (IMO) is the set of variables and their associated functionality that exist in the global scope, or are expected to be importable in a predictable and standardized way.

Part 2 of this series, for instance, shows the instantiator of the V8 engine (via deno_core, a runtime-less wrapper as explained in Part 1) implementing a simplified fetch API with some trivial JS and the bulk of the logic in Rust: https://deno.com/blog/roll-your-own-javascript-runtime-pt2#i... - this would then be available to any code executing in their custom JS environment.

This is useful even outside of creating a full Node-style implementation; for instance, Cloudflare created a locked-down runtime (a reasonable subset of the browser runtime) for v8 isolates for their workers: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/

It's super cool to know this stuff as it lets you consider (when appropriate!) using JS as a way to accept Turing-complete user-submitted logic rather than just accepting, say, JSON configs, while limiting the surface with which it can interact with your system.
Do you truly think there is no one on earth who could do a better job than Pinchai for, let's say, $80M a year? $40M a year? $30M a year? $10M a year? Why is there downward pressure on wages for everyone except for this particular position?

Several years ago, I worked at an enterprise software company that partnered with plotly and we had to use Dash to build a Tableau-like drag and drop dashboard builder.

Dash had some amazing ideas and architecture, but suffered from too little hardcore developers working on the repo. Pynecone looks a whole lot like it was heavily inspired by Dash, but re-architected with the lessons of Dash power users.

I find the project incredibly impressive and well thought out. I cringe at transpilation into Next.js, but the target code is actually extremely clean and easy to follow/read/debug. Kudos to the team.

I've actually used terminals that didn't have cursor keys, as well as systems with original vi where the cursor keys didn't work because the sysop didn't have termcap set up correctly; and I regard it as somewhat masochistic to deliberately constrain oneself in this way, in the modern world where (in comparison) everyone (who has a serious keyboard) has cursor keys.

Heck, home computers of the early 1980s had cursor keys. And nowadays we don't even have the excuse that there are some barmy terminals around that produce really odd character sequences from the cursor keys that we don't get configurations for out of the box. Even the world of terminals and terminal emulators is mostly DEC-ish now.

I realize that people do it as an exercise, or out of curiosity, sometimes. But I have no intention of ever going back to that world. (-:

First person that I read about also having a problem with coffee and even with decaf. For me it started inducing anxiety like effects and gives me insomnia now if I accidentally eat a tiramisu or something containing a bit of it. Haven’t found anything that one can get an acquired caffeine sensitivity, but I guess there is not much research. I didn’t have an episode, but it did start during some more mentally challenging times.

Well, I spent the first half of my life in a world that hardly had any software, and now I live in a world that has been eaten by software. It’s awful.

Yesterday I got a message from a bank that my account was inactive and might be considered abandoned by the bank. If that happened they would turn it over to the state and I would have to jump through hoops to get it back.

So I called them up and inquired: I’ve been using this account and it’s not inactive. What’s up?

A person in a faraway land, presumably working in the middle of the night authenticated me and then started clicking in their computer. They agreed that there was activity sufficient that the account was not abandoned. But then they found a “strange message” associated with some “strange activity” on the account.

I asked if we could freeze the account while we sorted it out. I am flabbergasted to report that they said no.

I went down to the branch to close my account. They were able to zero the account out and give me a cashiers check, but because necessary systems were down, they could not close my account. I had to return today, and now after two visits and a handful of phone calls, I am no longer concerned that my money will disappear.

Having worked in technology integration for some time, I could see echoes of bad software in every single one of the obstacles that I faced.

I was alive in 1985 and I had a bank account then. If I contacted my bank then for similar help, I would have received prompt, courteous service.

The difference between these two scenarios is that the one that happened yesterday and today was infested with software.

Now if you want to look forward to a future enabled by good software, you go ahead. Maybe that will help you create that future. I wish you luck. But right now, we live in an unending hell of bad (and badly integrated) software.

I reject your false dichotomy. Drive slower, build more robust crash cells, and invest in roads that don’t suck and public transport.
They have a <10 person team IIRC, using Discord as an interface saves a TON of money/effort/maintenance/risk, etc, as best as I understand, and lets them focus on the technical product. Remember, Discord is giving them free content legal protection by proxy, even if that's not necessarily the original intended effect I think. There's a lot to gain by riding alongside Discord as a primary interface vehicle, I personally believe.

They're good enough technically at what they do that their audience is okay with the interface that they have to use, I'd reckon (I've heard similar beefs about the UI stuff though, so it sorta makes sense).

That's an interesting question. Could someone have a serious mental health disorder that would never manifest without certain triggers.

I'm not qualified to guess but I suspect it would be possible. Then if it's possible the rate that it happens would be important. If it's rare then it might not be important in the discussion of causes of mental health problems.
The most important people to know about this stuff are the people for whom it's effectively part of how to do their job correctly. I know what it means if there's a flashing single amber light on a railway signal in my country, but it's not important that you know, and wouldn't be important if I'm wrong, however it's very important that the train driver knows what it means.

You'd hope that people doing job X would seek at least some insight into whether there are best practices for doing X, even if it's not a regulated job where you're required by law to have proper training. Not so much unfortunately.

Example: Many years ago now, early CA/B Forum rules allowed CAs to issue certificates for DNS names under TLDs which don't exist on the Internet. So e.g. back then you could buy a cert for some.random.nonsense and that was somehow OK, and people actually paid for that. It's worthless obviously, nobody owns these names, but until it was outlawed they found customers. But, even though the list of TLDs is obviously public information, some CAs actually didn't know which ones existed. As a result some companies were able to tell a real public CA, "Oh we use .int for our internal services, so just give us a certificate for like www.corp-name.int" and that worked. The CAs somehow didn't realise .int exists, it's for International Organisations, like ISO or the UN, and so they issued these garbage certificates.

[Today the rules require that publicly trusted CAs issue only for names which do exist on the public Internet, or which if they did exist would be yours, and only after seeing suitable Proof of Control over the name(s) on the certificate.]
Ah, but Google announced a $70B stock buyback, so in a sense, isn't that a net loss of $10B, requiring belt tightening and layoffs?
There's already a strong precedent for something like .well-known being disregarded — the ~/.config directory. It's the same idea, a special directory starting with a dot, and the objection seems to be similar, that it's awkward. In the case of the config directory it's that the storage for an app is spread between multiple directories like ~/.local/share and ~/.cache instead of one directory like ~/.vim

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Base_Directory

I support both well-known and XDG because I think the benefit outweighs that perhaps they could have been designed better. But I don't think that those who opt out of it could only be doing so out of ignorance.

I posed a similar question to a postdoc at CSAIL. Namely that generative image models like DALL-E consistently screw up the number of eyes and fingers. I wondered if you could use a knowledge graph in conjunction with the drawing algorithm to imbue more realism into the generation. At the time they said they weren't aware of research in that direction. Fair enough. Still interested in seeing if these purely generative models can reference knowledge and apply it.

That is because those are the traditional methods, and are easy to teach. And probably the curriculum hasn't been changed. Also, automatic differentiation is _hard_.

Numerical differentiation comes directly from the definition of derivative and symbolic is what you always did for exercises in your calculus classes.

Automatic differentiation come in two flavours, forward and backward modes. Forward mode is based on dual numbers [1], which is the

quotient of a polynomial ring over the real numbers, by the principal ideal generated by the square on the indeterminate

That is ℝ[X]/≺X²≻.

Another way of thinking of this is to have an element ℇ different from zero, such that ℇ ²= 0 and hand wave the fact that the dual part of the number carry the derivative.

Backward mode builds a graph of computation and doing symbolic differentiation over the graph and compile down the derivative into runable machine code (it could be interpreted, compiled down to IR, neither the form or the execution environment changes the fundamental algorithm).

Maybe they are not really hard, but they are not easy either. Still I think they should be at least mentioned in modern courses.

So, and forgive me for being reductionist: is this essentially an online poll marketplace that incentivizes pollsters and respondents to game the results? If not, can you help me understand how my (admittedly reductive) summary is incorrect?

“Truth” is fairly universally defined as the true or real state of a system or matter. Facts aren’t necessarily immutable, I would agree, since future verification efforts may include additional data, or the state of a system or matter changes over time. But they are objectively verifiable with evidence, not supposition or rhetoric.
I wonder if the next such trend, maybe among gen alpha or their progeny, will be "I don't use the internet".

I wouldn't even know how that would work, then again, I'm sure someone in the 80s wouldn't have been able to imagine life without TV.

Although then it raises the problem of the payment processor (such as PayPal) having more information about you, I do like that solution. And, of course, your payment processor already knows what you're paying to who anyway, so perhaps there's no additional leakage of data with it.

I was completely unaware that PayPal did this. I have a PayPal account. I think I'll investigate.

Seriously? I’m insanely pro-nuke, and work in the nuclear sector, but Westinghouse should really focus on their AP1000. They’ve already got deals in place with several countries, and now that they’ve got them running in more than one country, there might be a chance of bringing costs down some. The light water SMR market is getting crowded rather fast. They’re competing with both GE (and their BWRX-300) and NuScale (with their modular designs).
It wouldn't take much to test well water in Kent County. You could literally go to any gas station and pull a sample with with the owner's permission. At least that may give you some definitive answers.

Midjourney is more niche. It’s great at photographs, digital art, concept art, game art and everything in that sphere. Because that’s what it was trained on. So it has a specific style. Dall-E in comparison produces kind of garbage looking pictures of many more styles
I've been saying this kind of thing for a while about open source. There is a lot of innovation happening outside of the corporate sector which has been neglected. Not just that; it has been essentially covered up. These projects have not been allowed to get any attention because big tech controls all the media channels. A lot has been happening outside of AI too.

A lot of people are shocked at how this open source innovation just came out of nowhere but those who work in open source, in those areas, aren't so surprised because they've been going at it for years.

>Changing the head of state from a powerless unelected to a powerless (or worse, powerful) elected head of state would change little practically.

>Can you not see any advantages and positive achievements of the British history of constitutional monarchy, common law, Bill of Rights, etc? Jury trials, habeas corpus, etc, have done much for freedom. The legacy code, if we might call it that, is the only thing still holding back the authoritarian ambitions of the powerful.

So what's your position exactly? On one side you claim it's a powerless family that would get replaced by a (potentially) worse elected person, on the other side it turns out it's a very influential family that prevents authoritarians from taking the power. Then, you finish up with non specific examples of republics that are much worse off than UK monarchy while conveniently excluding republics that are doing equally well or better than UK (you didn't specify in what UK is better so I can also be nebulous I guess).

In my view, monarchy is an artifact of the past. It's pretty much a family inheriting rather high privileges because of some things (which we can agree were important) that happened in the remote past. Nowadays, what's the point? Why do we need to continue with that? If they're powerless as you say, why not just get rid of them? Save money, make the country more democratic (at least on paper) and all that. Oh yeah, and as a spaniard I can also guarantee that a monarch can become a piece of trash like any elected official so those guarantees are thin as paper.

I just would like to hear real arguments about why a monarchy is so much better than an alternative.
Every time I hear this horse argument I picture a horse that is as strong as 1000 horses and goes 300 miles per hour and I get really sad that they invented cars instead of just giving people what they wanted.

It was also a pay cut from a TCTC (Tim Cook total compensation) high of $99 million the year before, which seems mindbogglingly high but also make him out to be a bargain in comparison to Pichai.
