That might be possible with good blackout curtains, except for the LEDs on damn near everything. Even in my own room at home, I have to remember to cover the USB charger that I use for laptop and random other devices. When I travel, it's a nightmare - clock radios, TVs, microwaves, and especially the lights built in to many GFCI outlets in bathrooms. I used to bring a roll of electrical tape for exactly this reason. Masks are the solution that works everywhere to block light, though they're less than ideal in other ways.

Actually I think this is really good that we see more regulation around access to pornography, because many damaging aspects of it have been raised more in public awareness and these companies have made a lot of money off of addicting populations from a young age with harmful content without paying for the consequences. Social media companies should be included also, considering how many children and teens are on social media platforms looking for sexual activity with adults.
It worked for https://greenhealthdocs.com/ in Maryland. They advertised heavily before legalization framework was in place.

People didn't know they just needed to fill out a state form that's approved automatically pay $50 to the state, and pay a small fee $75-$80 to a certified doctor, dentist, nurse, or midwife for a cannabis recommendation.

Instead, they greenhealth charges 200 bucks to people.
>The qualities that we perceive of it are deceptive, and not necessarily reflective of anything real.

This claim only makes sense given a particular definition of "real", but if (the qualities of) our subjective experiences are outside of that definition, why should we take (the qualities of) subjective experience to not be real, rather than the definition to be impoverished? What is real should encompass every way in which things are or can be. The qualities of subjective experience included.

The problem isn't with taking subjectivity to be real, but with taking everything that is real to be object based. There are no qualia "things" in the world. But we should not see this as implying there are no qualia.

This comment makes me glad that most of my interactions with Mormons have been from the other side of the fence, so to speak. I grew up in SLC suburbs and currently live in South Salt Lake but I was Methodist growing up, never LDS. So there was never really anybody close to me who was Mormon except until the age by which they'd learned not to try to defend their beliefs to non-Mormons.

To this point: "porn access in Utah would be a hard one for the average person to stand up for". I suspect that the arguments will be for online privacy even if the real intention is for porn access. But it's kinda more like you said: it will certainly be interesting to see.

Three points.

The will of the majority should never limit the desires of the minority as long as it doesn’t impinge on someone else. Would you use the same justification for laws against miscegenation and “sodomy” (ie non heterosexual sex) because that’s what the “conservative lawmakers” wanted”? Why the carve out against “protected individuals”? All of our rights should be protected against religious fundamentalism. Freedom of religion also should be freedom from religion.

We see all across the United States even in conservative states that when abortion rights are put on the ballot they are consistently passing even against the will of the legislation.

I can assure you as a resident of Florida and more specifically Orlando, the number of people who want hundreds of thousands of dollars and energy wasted going after “woke Disney” is small - yet the legislation is passing laws and spending money left and right.

There's an overlap between secular and religious prohibitions, and there's no easy answer as to which rules are "religious" — you're just reflecting what's in your head as "obviously secular" and "obviously religious", and that's not how all other (secular) people view the world.

I wish they'd pass a law saying that all entities (including globally) putting out mass amounts of content for consumption by US Americans need to identify themselves, and disclose what tools they used to create that content (like a mandate to reveal BuiltWith). This is similar to the already well-established CAN-SPAM Act where companies must identify themselves and provide an opt-out. It is also similar to how the FDA mandates ingredient lists on products (although, curiously, only on US-made products).

There should be penalties for non-compliance, proportional to the volume of violating content. Content that got viral by organic sharing would not be covered by the same law – only the company and its mass distribution channels would have to comply. It would probably be the purview of the FCC, which already has child ratings and goes so far as to control what words cannot be said on network television.

I am a libertarian, but I believe we need to use government to mitigate negative externalities -- costs that companies impose on the public and the environment at large, in order to make profit. One way would be to allow mandate disclosure of what's going on. I write about it here:

https://magarshak.com/blog/?p=362

I would even go so far as to say that we should phase in a UBI, paid for by Pigovian taxes on these companies. That would have all the benefit of Macron's taxes on fossil fuels without the yellow vest protests, for example.

A non-government alternative would be to at least have a certification that there was a human in the loop, kind of like "organic chicken" certification.
> but watching porn is not a right if any kind

That's not really true, depending on how you define "porn". There are very strong first amendment rights around producing and consuming all sorts of potentially objectionable content:

https://reason.com/2019/10/04/pornography-is-protected-by-th...

Is it a "fundamental human right?" Dunno, I'm not the arbiter of that. But the US supreme court has repeatedly ruled that it is a constitutional right to be able to do so free of government interference. That doesn't mean you're guaranteed to have access to it - it's a free market and others 1st amendment rights allow them to choose what they provide. But the government can't stop you, and that's a right.

The issue is porn is a natural addiction. Young people, especially young men will always be horny and seek out porn. The only deterrents to it are religious and cultural shaming. Is the solution to regulate porn with "education" so people know what healthy use is or not? Because while it seems reasonable to provide guidelines, 99% of people will ignore them.

But I think if you look at [0] you'll see that these aren't really unique problems and are likely to have large repetitions in the dataset. I should add to that comment to include the dataset[1] (too late to edit) where they mention that they just scrape all of GitHub (Jan 1 2015 - Mar 31 2022). They do exact and near de-duplicate but near de-duplication is messy.

> We implement near-deduplication in our pre-processing pipeline on top of exact
deduplication. We first split the files into words/tokens based on non-alphanumeric characters and remove files with fewer than 10 tokens. Next, we compute the MinHash with 256 permutations of all documents, and use Locality Sensitive Hashing to find clusters of duplicates. We further reduce these clusters by ensuring that each file in the original cluster is similar to at least one other file in the reduced cluster. We consider two files similar when their Jaccard similarity exceeds 0.85.

Near-duplicates are still difficult to measure. So we should expect duplication, and it should be proportional to the number of samples we have (even if the same variance, but I'd wager higher variance with larger duplications).

Proofs as usual written are informal summaries, but they are supposed (in today's age) to be linked to a very rigorous series of steps more precise than a Haskell program. Actually, it's very similar to the execution of a Turing Machine (there are formal connections):

* There is a finite set of logical rules. For example, one rule is that if A => B and B => C are true, then A => C is true.

* We start with a finite set of given facts.

* At each step, we state a new fact and note it is true by combining previous facts with a rule.

* At the end, we have the claim we started with.

Example: prove 14 is an even number.

1. If a number equals two times an integer, it is even (given fact).

2. 7 is an integer (given fact).

3. 14 = 2 times 7 (laws of multiplication).

4. 14 = 2 times an integer (combining (2) and (3)).

5. 14 is even (combining (1) and (4)).

At a more complex level, e.g. proofs by induction are often no more than programs with for loops.
PacWest shares plummet 50% as it explores potential sale
I have a favorite Utah story that is I think appropriate here. Many years ago as a young and green consultant I was sent to Salt Lake to help with some ASP.NET/C# app with Utah Department of Liquor. I was told to look for the tallest building in SLC and the warehouse did not disappoint, it was huge (well, SLC is really flat and squat too). They showed me the warehouse full of really fancy robotic stuff (all made in Utah, and they were correct to be proud of it). We got to work looking over the code of the app, and along the way they learn that I am originally from USSR/Russia. "Oh" the devs say, "do you want to see our Russia module"? I am of course intrigued, and discover that during the process of organization of 2002 SLC winter Olympics (Mitt Romney's baby/rise to prominence), there was a huge diplomatic incident. The rules of State of UT at the time limit the number of bottles sold to any one in a given transaction, and the Russian delegation was refusing to come to Utah because they would not be allowed to buy as much liquor (likely vodka) as they wanted to. This got escalated to the highest levels of State department, and the intrepid UT legislature found a way! They [very quickly] passed the law that any person with Russian citizenship could buy whatever the heck they want in any amount. Now it was up to the poor saps in the UT Dept. of Liquor to implement it. But you couldn't just rely on people showing passport! No, the software team feverishly coded up the "Russian Module" that implemented passport number validation, making sure that if you did show a red passport with double-headed eagle, its number was valid. There was serious collaboration on the numbering schemes and maybe even some proto API validation to the Russian Federation servers. Yeah, legit module. Used for 2 weeks, and then decommissioned as the law sunset very rapidly.

So, where there is a will, there is a way. And a VPN.

Sounds like you just need more practice. Haskell is more expressive than most other languages and offers much more consistent and powerful abstractions. This does result in more productivity once the learning curve is overcome.

> He means that it implicitly smuggles in a certain conclusion. For instance, "I think therefore I am" seems logically sound, but actually begs the question in presupposing "I" to then conclude that "I" exists.

That's not correct.

It means if something-- anything-- is in the act of reflecting about thinking-- that is, reflecting about thinking about anything at all, including questioning existence-- then that thing exists only in that it is an entity capable of reflecting upon its own existence. And only during the act of reflecting on thinking is this true. And, most importantly, this notion is ineluctably cordoned off from any and all evidence-based logic which requires potentially illusory sensory input.

The part in italics came from others who read and critiqued Descartes. In any case, his basic logic is sound. Hume did the clearest job of critiquing it, and even he didn't claim Descartes had made a logical fallacy here.

It's been awhile since I've read it, but Descartes probably implied his notion was more powerful than it turns out to be-- i.e., that he could build an epistemology on it. Nevertheless, the basic notion is certainly not a logical fallacy.

This is a good idea, I used gradio and streamlit to list outputs from different models to check the output manually. But using CLI makes more sense for running multiple use cases and evaluate.

You have lots of steps to run, I would suggest:

1. Create a config file (yaml or json) to define prompts, variables, models, and output file.

2. Create an init command which will create empty files with the required structure. For example:

`promptfoo init`

output will be:

config.yaml
var.json
prompts.json

Good luck!

For those who are wondering, none of these things are "banned" though.

Drive around Salt Lake County, especially the city itself, and you'll see plenty of bars, signs offering cannabis medical cards, and even a strip club here or there. And some not bad breweries.

The state just seems to take the approach of waiting for sufficient demand for such things, then slowly adjusting to allow more, rather that just "have at it" for anything.

And of course, like everything in America, what the government really follows is the money -- they listen to business community demands, like allowing and increased number of bars where tourism and the local population demands, like at ski resorts, etc. Agreed that porn could be different though, since there's probably not a local business group advocating for preserving porn access
