Markets, AI and Collusion – how costs are externalized to the public
"This work is part of the third pillar of our approach to alignment research: we want to automate the alignment research work itself. A promising aspect of this approach is that it scales with the pace of AI development. As future models become increasingly intelligent and helpful as assistants, we will find better explanations."

On first look this is genius but it seems pretty tautological in a way. How do we know if the explainer is good?... Kinda leads to thinking about who watches the watchers...
I was part of the Merge Healthcare acquisition by IBM. We pioneered the DICOM standard that governs all versions of radiographs. We were acquired to "feed" Watson data - XRays, CAT scans, mammograms... and it never happened en masse. Apparently no one did their research on first case vs second case use scenarios. We only had access to a fraction of the radiograms we had touched so our prediction's confidence percentages were too low and models died in the queue.
> Bitcoin was NEVER hyped outside of Silicon Valley to much of a degree that people here think it was.

I directly experienced Bitcoin maximalists selling Bitcoin-backed retirements to seniors far from the Valley.

The hype was so bad, the subsequent price-drop was a pop-culture event that got mocked by mainstream comedians to mainstream audiences.
There was a nice open source browser automation project called TaxyAI using GPT-4 posted on HN a few weeks back but the author pulled the project and did a bait and switch after getting all the hype.

Personally, I feel like the iPad is very "flow" and the computer is very "precise." When I'm in the zone, just vibing, I'd much prefer to bust out musical ideas on an iPad (assuming no instruments available, of course). When I want to tweak the exact reverb parameters I'd rather have the computer.
You have to look at the device to open it. It's by nature another step of distraction. Grabbing a device and having your thumb on it opening it up so that it's ready to go by the time it reaches your eyes... it's faster. What gesture gets you back to the main/home screen as quickly? I still regret (somewhat) moving away from the SE, and might move back. I found an old one in the desk and it's making me want to move back.
Current best practice would depend on what you are trying to do exactly.

But overall the fastest way to transfer files to/from iPad (both in terms of ease/speed of use, as well as the actual transfer speeds) is just hooking up an external drive (whether it is a flash drive or an ssd) and transferring files using Files app (aka the file browser app preinstalled on all iOS/iPadOS devices). Note: this relies on the assumption that you have an iPad with USB-C (aka pro models and some recent non-pro models).

Most health insurance doesn't cover weight loss treatment without a condition like T2D, heart issues, etc. If you're fat enough that it's damaging your health you're extremely unlikely to be able to lose it without significant support through medicine, nutritionists, etc.
Not only that, but the latest generation iPad Pro and MacBook Air have the same CPU (and SoC as a whole)

You nailed it! Recursion, propagation, registry, registrar, registrant. Naming in the DNS could — ironically — use some work. But it's too late now, I suppose.
I was taking 3000 IU of D3 for years. When COVID hit, I upped that to 5000 and have kept it there since.
Thanks! For some reason had yet to come across those!
From what you wrote, it sounds like they are already back, still in their severance window, and took maybe a 2-3 week trip?

This sounds like a very reasonable thing to do when you receive a 4 month severance package. There's still time to look for work. I assume your friend who works in tech also has some amount of savings.

Life isn't a single track of work that you mustn't ever get off or you will utterly fail. There's room for some amount of leeway in moments like these.
tbd. no collapse yet because commercial leases typically last multiple years. Many leases are coming up for renewal in the next year, however. Might very well see a recession in commercial real-estate soon.
PostgreSQL Table Partitioning – Growing the Practice
This kind of nonsense drivel detracts from fact based critiques of current realities. Do you at least propose something to be done or is it all just mumbo-jumbo?
Recently we faced a challenge working with a large table where query performance had worsened. This is a high growth database table that tracks applicants as they move through their hiring process. Find out how we used PostgreSQL table partitioning to help solve this.
> “Born to Fly” is the highest-profile flick of this type to normalise the notion that the present-day PLA’s mission is to fight and kill Americans.

Meanwhile in Hollywood:

>> It is defended by ... and fifth-generation Su-57 fighters as well as older F-14 Tomcats.

Makes me wonder who could be the people manning Su-57 and F-14? Martians?

> Told by radio that they are in an area under China’s jurisdiction, the foreigners retort: “We can come and go whenever we want.”

Ask the recipients of the US' bombs for the last 30 years how they feel about that.

> <small>PLA</small>

Really?

> Alas, “Born to Fly” is closer in spirit to the first “Top Gun”. That film from 1986 shows obnoxious young pilots helping a hegemonic America enforce its will, without concern for the niceties of international law.

It's quite amusing to see this after all that bashing of evil Sino filmmakers.
It's a strange hire if you focus on software in the car, which GM says is Android Automotive (not Android Auto). He would not know a lot about Android.

But it looks sensible if he is more about cloud services: Dash cam video uploads, content management, etc.
I figured it was this. I mean, my car runs Ford Sync3 that runs CarPlay/AA (built by MS) and AAOS seems to compete directly with that.

The flamebait position trumpeted by GM CEO seems to be "we won't enable the CarPlay/AA app" but that could be reversed quite quickly when they realize customers don't want the builtin AAOS or AAOS doesn't do what CarPlay/AA can do.

The alternative is that AAOS has Apple Music and other apps built in (probably not Apple Maps) - like what you see with Tesla. I wonder if Apple will concede to this.
> Otherwise great hardware products, both the Apple phone and the Apple laptop.

as a person who (prior to the framework laptop) would like to buy macbooks and put linux on them (love apple hardware, hate their software and philosophical approach to things) I used to say this a lot, but I'm stopping.

As has become clear to me through conversation, there is no hardware without software in Apple's approach/opinion. It's not really a computer, it's more of an appliance. You don't buy a toaster and be unhappy that you can't put Linux on it. As engineers we like to separate software and hardware, but that's just not how Apple works. You can't just buy in to the hardware, because the hardware and the software are a complete unit. In other words, we've been looking at things the wrong way and once you view it correctly Apple's approach starts to make a lot of sense. If you don't agree with this view, then (as I've been told many times) you're not the target market.
It's been interesting to watch the health and fitness space around brain health and correlations with diet and exercise. People seem to finally be converging around some common truths that have been known for thousands of years. I All roads seem to be pointing towards finding a balance between what we are evolved for as a species and modern life.
This is bad policy begeting a public health crisis, not just a lot of people all making the same poor life choices.
Yes, I forgot about that but you're right that that's the typical implementation method.

So the DHCP case does not necessarily need any special kernel support (other than not prefiltering before the raw socket).

Thanks for the correction.
Second data point. I love that app. Well worth all the money.

I've also customised the automations so I have added friction to opening, for example, Slack after 6PM or on weekends. However it opens immediately during working hours.
> These people are not the target group for subscriptions, nor are they the majority.

The iPad app will only be available with a subscription.

This majority which does not prefer subscriptions do not have the option for "high cost one-time purchase".

This is incredible. That's an amazing device for the price! Thank you for sharing this!
There will always be a need for platter drives (or other magnetic storage) because flash memory loses data over time if it's powered-off. Theoretically you can store a tape or other magnetic drive for decades in a safety deposit box or the like and your data will still be there if/when you need it.

I don't like the trend of SSDs (NVMe or otherwise) getting cheaper and cheaper because it's coming at the cost of reliability and endurance. Sure I can get 2TB for ~$100 but at this point I'm not convinced it will outlast spinning rust as has been the colloquial assumption since 2.5" SSDs first hit the scene circa 2008.

I've quickly destroyed (consumer-grade) SSDs before by running stuff that is constantly reading and writing to them. Microsoft's Azure Stack Development Kit (ASDK) is one example.

Therefore, I'm actually very receptive to RAID'ing SSDs, be it MDADM, ZFS or some other means. I do agree that to RAID (RAID0) NVMe drives is a bit ridiculous, but RAID1 definitely adds value.
Thank you for such a compelling link. It was a wonderful interlude to my day and confirmed your thought.

Type 2 diabetes doesn't really wreck the pancreas, at least no more than other tissues. The problem is that cells throughout the body become insulin resistant. While it is obviously better to avoid the condition in the first place, most cases if caught early enough can be put into remission by eliminating carbohydrate consumption. (Adherence to such a diet can be difficult for many patients due to economic and cultural issues.)
Unless you are the owner/lessor of commercial real estate, why does this matter? NYC is happening these days, even if not everyone is going back to the office every day. They're still here in their homes (which are renting out for record high rates) and going about their daily lives in the city, which is absolutely packed.
Can you be specific about what kind of Cancer incidences is related to the latitude ? In general I don't think there is a good correlation between Cancer incidences and latitude, for example India gets plenty of sunshine year around, but Cancer incidences are no less.

This is absolutely open source and will enable a lot of academic, governmental, and nonprofit uses. Just because it doesn't allow someone else to make money from it doesn't make it not open source.

It's nowhere near that simple unless you're living with the Amish. No social media results in isolation from peers, a cure worse than the disease.
The two co-writers on No Time to Die that you keep praising were the people responsible for such trash as Johnny English, Die Another Day and The World is Not Enough, which says pretty much all you need to know about their screenwriting "skills" and their contribution to Bond history.

For all of the Craig Bond films, other writers had to be brought into to make their scripts filmable (Oscar winner Paul Haggis for Casino Royale and QoS and multiple Oscar nominee John Logan for Skyfall and Spectre, Emmy winners PWB and Fukunaga for NTTD).

Notably, Purvis and Wade have never been nominated for screenwriting awards, and the average RT score for the films they wrote without other screenwriters is...38 (the audience scores aren't much better, at 46). PWB's average is 85. Fukunaga's average for his screenplays is 87. PH and JL have won or been nominated for multiple Oscars.

They didn't bring her in to salvage the script at all. They brought her in to do polishes of dialogue and to give them some ideas about how things could go and they'd take what they wanted. What about this reads salvaging?

The WGA has strict rules about screenwriting credits. If she got screenwriting credit for a major blockbuster, she didn't just "polish" a little bit of the script, she wrote significant portions of the script that made it into production. And given their historical backgrounds, it's clear that she and Fukunaga were responsible for the serious elements of the film, since that's not a capability that Purvis and Wade have demonstrated in any of their prior films.)

except its about lesbian/bisexual bait so it wins awards.
in my opinion because they were looking to add female writing credits

And suddenly your agenda becomes clear...Most people aren't so open about being misogynists.

Would it be abusive or advisable to adapt edtech offerings in light of social media and slot machines' UX user experience findings?

While they should never appease students, can't infotech and edtech learn how to keep their attention, too?

Perhaps prompt engineering can help to create engaging educational content with substantive progress metrics?

"Build a game in JS (like game category XYZ) to teach quantum entropy to beginners"

And then what prompt additions could help to social media-ify the game?

How should social media reinforce human communication behaviors with or without the stated age of the user? Should there be a "D- because that's harassment" panda video to reinforce? Which presidential role models' communication styles should AI emulate?

I find it sad to consider that the most impactful thing to do to improve children's lives would be to ban them from social media due to their age; though, for the record, e.g. Facebook did originally require a .edu email address at an approving institution.

Hopefully, Khanmigo and similar AI edtech offerings will be more engaging than preferentially reviewing unacceptable abuse online; but kids and people still need to learn to interact respectfully online in order to succeed.

I don't think it helps to call them "degenerate." They're human beings. Some of them, more clever than you. Who are trapped in lives of quiet desperation.

We think we are civilized, but we are just as barbarous as the world of Hugo's Les Misérables. We live in a world filled with Inspector Javert's spending their lives chasing their Valjeans.

The CS specific analogy might be, "Abstractions are leaky," or more broadly the, "map is not the territory."

Any complex-phenomena that is modeled with with a simplification will have places where that simplification fails. But models can still be highly useful, you just need to choose an appropriate level of abstraction, accept and manage any tradeoffs with exceptions, and move to better paradigm if one emerges.
If you're that fat you're statistically unlikely to lose weight without medical intervention of some sort, even something as basic as talking to a fucking nutritionist about portion sizes.
Artificial Intelligence Is Not Going to Kill Us All
Uh? Where did you get that comparison? China's top income tax rate is 45%. I cannot see how that could ever be "far below" what someone's income tax rate would be in California (37% federal + 12.3% state). Mind that the top bracket starts around $140k in China, whereas in the US it's about $590k (federal or Californian).
Yes, quite. At Sun we used to have a pejorative phrase "it came from NJ" which referred to code added by AT&T but which wasn't from Ritchie et. al.
I think Chicago and IL are slept on in general but have a lot of long term positives. IL (thanks to Pritzker and a post-Magidan House) is starting to shore up fiscally, Lake Michigan (for both recreation and water supply) and a decent public transit system make it very appealing.
As I understand, it’s better for them to keep the retail spaces empty than drop rent. This was true when money was free, but it’ll be interesting to see how they adapt to renewals with the new rates.
Apple's Mixed Reality Headset Could Run Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro
Is "backbone" the new moniker for "iron fist"?
I've found that asking the chatbot to develop a course syllabus is pretty useful:

> "Please provide a course syllabus and outline for a three-month long course on literary magazine writing in the style found in magazines like Harpers, the New Yorker, the Smithsonian and similar outlets, with an emphasis on attracting and pleasing a fairly wealthy, well-educated 'high-brow' audience."

This generates a typical college-level course outline. If you then ask it to expand on any specific topics, the results are pretty interesting.

However, attempts at generating unique creative content tend to generate low-quality boilerplate output. For example, this prompt produces some cringe-worthy drivel, probably related to the 'alignment' imperative:

> "Provide a brief outline and sample paragraph of a narrative non-fiction article about teaching high school students mathematics in a urban slum setting where student's parents are often addicted to drugs and alcohol and there is a high level of violence and property crime."
My memory of 2001 was that CSS1 was a real contender, and CSS2 was beginning to take shape. CSS2-style class and type selectors were already strongly supported; see https://web.archive.org/web/20030803081721/http://devedge.ne...

CSS was still a short time away from any one browser fully supporting it, but already the table purists were trying to chase developers away to <div>.

I can only offer anecdotes, but:

1. NYC is booming IMHO

2. Pre-pandemic, there was barely room to walk on the sidewalks in many parts of NYC, now it is better (presumably as people come in 2x a week, not 5x). Some subways have seats now, but many are still standing-room-only.

3. For the last 8yrs pre-pandemic, I used to go to SF/SV 4x to 5x a year for work/conferences...My last Cali trip (cancelled) was literally April 2020 for NVIDIA GTC...I havent been in Cali since 2020. Most has been replaced with Zoom, some has gone to other cities.

LLMs are quickly going to be able to start explaining their own thought processes better than any human can explain their own. I wonder how many new words we will come up with to describe concepts (or "node-activating clusters of meaning") that the AI finds salient that we don't yet have a singular word for. Or, for that matter, how many of those concepts we will find meaningful at all. What will this teach us about ourselves?

No, I am not planning on owning commercial, but I am interested in avoiding having taxes raised on me to fill a budget deficit. Taxes on commercial real estate generate a significant amount of revenue, commercial rental agreements are usually ~5-7 years, and so, at least in SF, there is a looming wave of devaluations which has yet to be realized. The city already has an estimated 800M budget shortfall without assuming commercial real estate devalues by 50%. When that happens the only quick fix is to bleed money from the populace. If commercial buildings aren't being used in NY then this will also occur there.
Right call for whom ? What's it got to do with backbone if it is just not in anyone (except landlords') interest to mandate RTO ?

Honestly, I think any foundational work on the topic is inherently Yud-favored, compared to the blithe optimism and surface-level analysis at best that is usually applied to the topic.

Ie, I think it's not that this shouldn't be done. This should certainly be done. It's just that so many more things than it should be done before we move forward.
