Startup Aims to Democratize AI for All
Hey everyone!

I am thrilled to announce that I have decided to embark on an ambitious journey to create a tech company that specializes in machine learning with a focus on TensorFlow models. Our mission is to make AI freely available to the average user, regardless of their educational background in software development or coding. We're building a platform with a no-code approach, making it as user-friendly as possible for everyone.

Our vision for the user interface is one that is not only easy to use, but also extremely flexible so that all kinds of AI models can be created by the average person. We're striving to make our platform accessible to anyone, no matter their educational background or financial situation. To achieve this, we're aiming to offer our product for free. Nonetheless, even if it may not be achievable, our primary aim is to make this technology as affordable as possible.

Imagine a world where AI technology is truly open and accessible to everyone. Entrepreneurs, students, and curious individuals alike could leverage our platform to create AI models for their projects, be it for personal use or even to kickstart new businesses. We believe that this democratization of AI has the potential to unleash a wave of innovation and creativity, ultimately contributing to the betterment of society.

As we embark on this journey, we are actively seeking advisors, consultants, and anyone who can provide valuable information or guidance to help us realize our vision. We understand the importance of collaboration in such an ambitious project, and we are eager to connect with passionate individuals who share our vision for a more accessible AI future.

If you're interested in joining us on this mission or have any ideas or resources that could be helpful, please don't hesitate to reach out. Your input and expertise are invaluable as we work together to bring AI technology to the masses.

Please email us @ innovate@fiattecharts.com

Thank you for your time, and we can't wait to see the incredible things we will achieve together!

Best regards,

The hardware is solid. The development community is aging out.

We have the same thing and are currently migrating off as there are no RPG developers available for hire. Most of them are retiring. There are very few schools teaching RPG 3, 4, and Free.
Looks interesting. I am just not sure how the mindmap part works? How are the relations between articles being formed?
I don't think it's such an unreasonable question when VCs are trying to maximize their investment, and being in a hot tech market has shown to be an accelerator in finding talent and growing a startup
I use it too it's not hard to setup and works well (with very few exceptions and if you use a "recent" enough linux kernel, depending on your hardware).

Once hibernation is setup just set systemd [Login]HandleLidSwitch=suspend-then-hibernate and maybe configure the delay with [Sleep]HibernateDelaySec=5min.

Hibernation most times works nice too (even with Full Disk Encryption (FDE)) there is just one gotcha, lockdown mode is currently fundamentally incompatible with hibernation (even through it's docs seem to imply something else, they refer to a not yet existing feature). And some distros enable lockdown mode by default if you use a proper FDE setup. Leading to a lot of confusion about hibernation suposedly not working anymore in linux or being incompatible with FDE.
I think you have it backwards: we would need a reason to think they don't have it, given our shared history and similar biology.
It's plenty. For comparison, Apple's M2 MacBook Air has a 13.6" 2560-by-1664 display.
yeah it isn’t too differnt than smoking or drinking or drugs in terms of use as a stress reliever
Most underwater "plants" are algae, too primitive to produce flowers. Their life cycles are complicated and the fecundation happens in special short lived individuals called gametophytes that are generated from spores and produce gametes that fuse into other spores. They don't produce pollen, so can't be pollinated.

To speak crudely, pollen is like a vase that hosts inside a crew of "spermatozoan like" gametes and then injects them directly in the right place. Algae just release the gametes without the "mothership". Some have "smart" gametes that act basically like tiny animals. This was a headache for a lot of time until a new kingdom was created for "neither exactly a plant nor an animal".

The upper aquatic plants normally just raise the flowers over the surface to use the old reliable insects (Lotus). Only a few remain totally submerged at all times (Posidonia) and those probably use crustaceans and sea currents as pollinators.

The Core and Standard things was just there the aid the transition from Framework, which is now complete, any remains will soon be phased out entirely.
> Note that you cannot blindly correct for frequency in this manner because it is not physically possible to just change the frequency as I did

They're also not the same core architecture? Comparing ARM chips that conform to the same spec won't necessarily scale the same across frequencies. Even if all of these CPUs did have scaling clock speeds, their core logic is not the same. Hell, even the Firestorm and Icestorm cores on the M1 SOC shouldn't be considered directly comparable if you scale the clock speeds.
VCs want to be perceived as steely eyed futurists, who are specially gifted at sifting through the mass of ideas bubbling up in tech and picking the winners. But it's actually quite difficult to pick winners, and as more and more investment has flooded into the space even getting a few winners in a batch is more difficult. So what A16z has done is to cash in their reputation as futurists to pump their investments. The article points out that it was their late stage Groupon investment that was the anchor Andreessen's famous "Software Eating The World" op-ed, a late stage investment dumped as soon as the IPO lockout ended. However, one of the consequences of VC being more public and in the press is that now everyone has seen them breathlessly shilling shitcoins during the boom. How long will their reputation last as they are publicly associated with more and more high profile failures?
Have you been around for the past 10-15 years of Android? Manual permissions don't solve the problem. People will just say why yes, I do indeed want to read this clickbait article/use this flashlight app, go ahead and give the server my GPS location so it can follow me around. The only reason you don't get much of this anymore is the limits the app stores enforce these days.
I suspect that one screen comic or a 20 second video could explain it. Instead they give us a wall of text that even technical people can't understand.

Statisticians have been using L1 regularization to estimate sparse models for a while, it seems reasonable to assume that you could fine tune the model on a data set while also pushing weak parameters to zero in a natural way in this domain as well.

Moderna presentation on the vaccine from ReSViNET Conference (RSVVW 2023):

https://s29.q4cdn.com/435878511/files/doc_presentations/2023...

some commentary summarized from alexberenson.substack.com :

Nine people who received the shot got RSV. Fifty-five who received the placebo did. Thus the 17,500 shots prevented 46 cases of RSV.

It shows people who received the jab instead of the placebo reported an extra 10,156 side effects such as headache or fatigue. Those side effects included an extra 455 severe effects, rated as Grade 3 or worse.

Side effects are rated on a five-point scale, with Grade 5 being death and Grade 4 usually requiring immediate medical treatment and hospitalization. Grade 3 side effects are defined as “severe or medically significant.”

For example, a Grade 3 fever is usually defined as over about 102 degrees, while a Grade 4 is over 104.

In other words, a single Grade 3 side effect is likely to be considerably more severe than a case of RSV for most adults. Again, Moderna’s shot caused 10 of those side effects for every RSV infection it prevented.

> The Joe Rogan Experience video is such speculation that I cannot take any of it as fact. He jumps around in speculative ideas, descriptions and theories. Using titles or rank as a means of factual integrity is thin. It's still hearsay

Speculation is speculation, but he also methodically goes through exactly what he and others saw on the day the video was recorded.

> People want to believe, but the fact remains there is zero undisputed evidence for off-world UFOs.

I agree, but this is a compelling case of something, that according to multiple witnesses, seems to defy the laws of physics as we understand them. Saying it is aliens is speculation, saying it is something we do not understand is not.
if anyone from MosaicML is reading this, i’d love a guide on how to do exactly this!
> The thing is, your mistake isn't just distrusting the language model, it's trusting the search engine.

There is a rather substantial difference between a search engine, which suggests sources which the reader can evaluate based on their merits, and a language model, whose output may or may not be based on any sources at all, and which cannot (accurately) cite sources for statements it makes.

> Similar degrees of caution and skepticism must be applied to results from both ML and traditional search engines.

This is a fairly ridiculous statement.

Even MS themselves explain how to bypass the TPM check on their support page (by means of a dedicated registry key „AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU“). [1]

That tells me they don’t really expect to be able to enforce TPM security upon their user base.

Very cool!

Have you heard about dolt, which is also "Git for Data?"

yeah, it's pretty nasty. Free looks pretty java-centric. What's weird is you can in-line RPG. Makes for some crazy looking code.
Ha, I mean it would be fairly trivial to output "a confidence factor of some sort". It just becomes less trivial when you try to actually make it useful!
yeah, Joe Rogan's video on it was just pure entertainment. No value. By definition, it's an unidentified flying object. So by nature, it's alien, but not in the little green men sense. It's unknown. Could be man, could be hallucinations, could be drones, could be meteors, each case is unique. However, my family was involved so I know some things the public doesn't. I'm a believer. Without a doubt.
Per his Wikipedia Bio:

"He also led the building and expansion of new markets for IBM in artificial intelligence, cloud, quantum computing, and blockchain technology.[17][18] He was a driving force behind IBM's $34 billion acquisition of Red Hat, which closed in July 2019."

Didnt watson get shut down? and all those other expansions are bullshit ? blockchain? seriously?

Also IBM's stock price has been down for the past 10 years.

Maybe the CEO should spend less time in the office and more time remote.
> They're expensive,

Living is expensive. Housing is an order of magnitude more expensive on a monthly basis than cars are. Food is around the same as a car payment.

EDIT: And in a pinch, a car can be used as housing. Sucks that this is a real thing, but there are definitely folks who prioritize their car payments over house payments. Gives them shelter and transportation so they can find work again.

> complicated,

No more complicated than working around public transport, IME.

> require constant maintenance and consumable wear items

About once a year, yeah, drop it off at a mechanic for a few hours.

> and a lot of space to store,

The space is built into most origins and destinations, the cost built into the location regardless of whether you drove or not. To be cheeky, why not use what I'm already paying for?

> they pose a substantial personal liability risk,

Not really? Your liability is generally managed by insurance, which leads to:

> incur significant taxation and insurance fees, you have to pay for fuel

These exist for most other methods of transportation, just usually hidden from you. You'll pay for it in fares and taxes.

> manage the logistics of frequent refueling/recharging,

Once weekly (give or take) I stop and refuel. If I had to do it daily, I might be a bit more annoyed by it.

> they rapidly depreciate in value, they can be damaged, catch on fire, strand you in the middle of nowhere, you have to pay attention constantly while using them, etc.

Can be said about every method of transportation, sans walking, in existence. :) Though... a broken leg could definitely strand you places too.

> To have the most expensive thing I own be a bicycle would be splendid.

My personal computer is probably worth more than 99% of bikes on the market. FWIW, living an ascetic life is not something most people on the planet aspire to.
What is the scientific meaning of "undisputed evidence"?

People are paychologically inclined to dispute, dismiss and deride things conflicting with their convictions.

The crucial point is, few are distinguishing between "sombeody is against this" and "somebody has a rational argument against it". Arguments do not count more just by many repeating them. That is, they shouldn't.
You can plug in an eGPU with this.

From the post:

> If you want to use an eGPU, you can do that too! This is because the Framework Laptop 13 with Ryzen™ 7040 Series processors has two fully capable USB4 ports, with the back left and back right Expansion Cards slots.
> zero undisputed evidence

Why would this ever be a useful qualification for any kind of evidence?

Seems like a simple troll with questionable intentions could in such a case easily undermine useful evidence of any quality.

Honestly history has always been one of my favorite subjects and I often find myself down rabbit holes nowadays, but I had no interested in school history classes. I guess they often were just too vague and repetitive.
I asked it to mix Turkey elections in the form of a 24 episode and it was great. Cliff hangers, unexpected events, political dilemmas. As good as any episode. Of course the actual writing of dialogs and settings would be important as well, but the plot was great. I can’t post the output because…

Real-time convincing-sounding TTS is extremely close - I’d be surprised if we don’t get an elevenlabs equivalent to gpt-turbo before the end of summer.

I spent an hour or three over the weekend messing around in Skyrim VR with a mod that does player speech recognition, pipes it out to GPT with identifier tags to give scene context, sends GPT output to elevenlabs (optional), and then the mod integrates it into Skyrim mouth rigging etc.

Yes, there’s an extremely obvious lag before you get a response, but it’s on the order of seconds even though this is an early Skyrim mod with a ton of moving parts interacting.

And the result is…astounding. As someone said in a comment on the below linked video: this is the biggest leap for video games since Half Life 1.

It looks like there's been some good progress on getting Linux running natively on the Windows Dev Kit 2023 hardware[0]. There was a previous discussion here about this hardware back in 2022-11[1].

Why not use ICQ numbers instead?
That's exactly what OP's footnotes say, yes.
Unfortunately WASM is not popular in the slightest outside of the HN community. Less than 1% of websites use it, and those that do often use it for malicious purposes.
Some of it is backward compatibility with earlier systems - S/36 and S/38 had roughly similar limitations.

It is a design decision that dates back to the 1970s, and in the time they made it, they were hardly the only system to have made such a decision. Back then, truly hierarchical file systems were still a new idea - Unix was popularising it, Unix got the idea from Multics - it was primarily associated with research/academic systems and hadn’t yet spread much to commercial ones, which is where they were situating the product. On the other hand, S/38 adopted other highly novel research ideas, so why not this one?

Another factor is the UI: 5250 and 3270 block terminals work really well with fixed width fields, they don’t have good support for arbitrary length ones. Fields can’t be scrolled - if the field has a maximum value length of 255 bytes, it has to take up that many bytes on the screen. That is likely a factor which discouraged them from longer names and multi-level hierarchy. OTOH, MVS datasets have max 44 character names. They are pseudo-hierarchical, with 4 levels of “qualifiers” then a name, each max 8 characters, separated by dots. So I don’t know why they didn’t do something closer to MVS-maybe they thought “we are not a mainframe we are midrange machines that’s overkill for us”

The 8 or 10 character limit wasn’t uncommon for the 1970s. In those days, most Unix filesystems had a 14 character limit which is only a bit better.

They could have enhanced the core system to support nested libraries and longer library and object names. It would have caused backward compatibly issues for older apps but there are workarounds for that, like Windows having both short names (8.3) and long names for files; they could have some system to make nested libraries look like unnested ones on an app-by-app basis. They decided never to make those investments-they decided to just slap a POSIX filesystem on the side and leave the core alone.
I had a friend who had this same idea and made it pretty far down the licensing hell-hole. They ultimately failed, at least for a US market. This was 2013-14 though, it might actually work this time (using something like Spotify).
>I'm not really a huge stickler for grammar, but I've seen countless "how to spot phishing" guides specifically suggesting that we look for grammatical mistakes, as they're specifically included for purposes of improving the ratio of hooked phish to eaten phish, so it follows that messages which aren't phishing really ought to use correct grammar!

The approved vaccine (Arexvy) is a GSK vaccine. It's also not an mRNA vaccine - it's recombinant subunit vaccine (ie, you tinker with microbes to spew out relevant pieces of the virus which you harvest and purify).

Edit: Also your linked commentary basically completely hinges on what we believe the risk of RSV to actually be (fair). The lower bound estimate provided by tallying up actual death certificates is just that - a lower bound. The linked study for that number dedicates a huge pile of its discussion section to the very weakness of just using death certificates. I'm not saying that the 14k number must be true, but it's also quite unlikely that the 35 per year number is the right order of magnitude as well.
Just pointing out here that one of the most profitable video games in history is made in Unity (Genshin Impact) as is its followup, Honkai Star Rails.

Other big games made in Unity: Fall Guys, Cuphead, Hollow Knight, Amplitude's Endless games, The Ori series, Tunic, Pokemon Go, Pillars of Eternity, Kerbal Space Program, Rimworld. This list doesn't include the many mobile games made in Unity, where it is by far the leading game engine.

Major games with Unreal: a lot, it owns the AAA space for games using third-party engines.

Major games made with Godot: none yet.
I’d always thought the point of the slots was to provide choice to each user to match their preference, probably at the time of the initial purchase.

Honestly, that one might want to regularly rearrange the ports hadn’t occurred to me.

Restaurants are also planting QR CODES in restaurants that steal your data, but the FBI isn't warning anyone about it. Just stick to physical menus. That way, nobody collects unnecessary data about you and your devices, and best of all you can make sure that you're getting the same prices and options as everyone else.
I'm skeptical, but that may be the case in Europe. It does not seem to be in the US https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/car-headrests-emergency-es...
In context, I don't think "many" means "most". You need a GPU from Nvidia or AMD, or an Intel platform at least as new as Ivybridge. That covers a lot of devices, but there are also a lot that it leaves out.
Shouldn't "metabunk" be about debunking the debunks? Not the best choice of name :)
