It seems like the electorate prefers those who promise the moon over honest idealists.

I find it very hard to imagine that there is a lack of honest grass-roots idealists in a country of 350+ million people, so it must be a lack of people willing to vote for them.
You put the dichotomy there, and I refuted it. So far my points have been:

a) Coal did not replace nuclear power

b) Coal was reduced during a policy to shut down nuclear power

c) The policy to shut down nuclear power has nothing to do with coal

The first two are facts you can see in the data. The third one is a matter of simple policy. If it were up to me I would have replaced this policy with. “Nuclear power will be shut down as well as all coal power plants”. The data seems to suggest this is possible.

Looking at different energy markets whether they decided to keep their nuclear power plants (like USA) or to do away with them (like Germany) coal is down everywhere. Nuclear policy seems completely irrelevant to coal usage. What seems relevant is renewable policy and coal policy. Countries which have a policy to reduce coal do so faster, countries that have a green energy policy replace coal with green energy, and countries that don’t (like USA) replace coal with gas.

From the data, what I can gather, is that nuclear policy is simply a decision about country’s willingness to keep operating these plants. Germany didn’t want to so they got rid of theirs. If a country wants to get rid of coal, they do so with a different policy. Alas Germany has a renewable policy, so you see that the nuclear power was replaced with wind + solar. And now that the nuclear plants are all gone, we shall see coal increasingly being replaced by these two power sources in the coming years.

But then I see model context length getting longer and longer just within the transformer architecture and the training engineering going on.

To me that’s a fundamentally different approach to AI research at this moment. It seems to keep paying off in surprising ways.

The Java version is the one with mods. The mods are several times the size of the base game at this point. If Microsoft said they were going to quit development on it many players would just shrug their shoulders and keep playing the last released java version forever. There would definitely be modpacks that recreated any features added to Bedrock if this happened.

Maybe if Bedrock got an officially supported API, especially one that is stable between releases so people don't have to redo their mods for every release, then it might start pulling in players. But honestly, they'd probably charge for the API and it would be stillborn.

Codon: Python Compiler
Can we build a model based purely on search?

The model searches until it finds an answer, including distance and resolution

Search is performed by a DB, the query then sub-queries LLMs on a tree of embeddings

Each coordinate of an embedding vector is a pair of coordinate and LLM

Like a dynamic dictionary, in which the definition for the word is an LLM trained on the word

Indexes become shortcuts to meanings that we can choose based on case and context

Does this exist already?
I'd be interested in adding anything that is (a) important and (b) not derivable from the guidelines that are already there. But I don't know what that would be. Suggestions are welcome!
> One trick is to have a LLM hallucinate a document based on the query

I'm not following why you would want to do this? At that point, just asking the LLM without any additional context would/should produce the same (inaccurate) results.
Some might label you a denier for questioning the conditions of this measurement at all (or more charitably a "skeptic", which is almost as bad nowadays). I'd wager that many people publicly labeled as deniers are simply guilty of not panicking hard enough.

Cherry-picked measurements and pessimistic models have long been standard in climate science, so one should take every headline with a grain of salt. That doesn't mean denying that anthropogenic climate change is real, but as with any contentious issue, after being viciously attacked once or twice for pointing that out, I've learned to shut my mouth on most forums.
I will echo another commenter, I'd love to hear more about how you arrived at this, and what your current practice looks like (the theory of operation, if you will).

I'd love to try and sort something like this out, but I'd need to consider where the chording is scoped. I run i3wm/KDE Plasma and emacs, and I'm not quite sure where to begin with something like that.
So if we finish all of our tickets early (which is often the case because measuring complexity is impossible to do up front), we're just supposed to sit around until the sprint ends?

A scrum master? Man, I thought my team was bloated with process but the fact that role exists elsewhere means I should probably be more grateful.
I'm not sure where that particular request is coming from, to be sure, but HTTP/3 requests don't work like that.

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9114.html#section-4.1-1 specifically https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9114.html#section-4.1-3

Also, I'm writing a HTTP server at the moment, so I'm pretty familiar with the protocols. (Not claiming to be an expert, but the reason I responded is that I've put A LOT of effort into understanding the protocols at a low level that last month or so, and I wanted to help if I could.)

I would go into this assuming that either there is something else on the page with that path, or an errant javascript request, or something else is mangling the message before it gets to you.

HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 both allow you to do a server push (where the server tells the client that it wants to send multiple files to it), and that might be what gunicorn is doing (I'm not familiar with it).

But, again, HTTP/3 does not chain together requests as a single path in the way that you described.

As for why it switched from 2 to 3, perhaps it was the fact that you were attempting to send multiple files that prompted the connection upgrade? Maybe it's the presence of a https connection (HTTP/3 requires TLS, but HTTP/2 does not).
They're great. I've had several. Doesn't hurt so much if I accidentally forget it somewhere :)

> The problem with statement like "this looks too complex" is that it lacks substance and is used as a stick to beat people with, and often has alternative meanings.

I’ve never seen anyone say this at $faang-gig. Ive certainly never been it used as a stick. While it’s true that any process can be abused, I’m taking about default burden of proof.

> To combat this, you need to justify the complaint.

Yeah, of course you can’t just say a magic word and expect others to fall in line. I’m claiming there should be justification for proposed increases in complexity. There is an asymmetry in where adding complexity is so trivial it is often accidental, whereas reducing complexity is labor intensive and so difficult that it’s often not cost-effective to even attempt it. Because of this asymmetry, complexity accumulates uncontrollable over time, unless you actively reduce it (expensive) or prevent it before it is implemented (cheaper). Otherwise your software engineers turns into software alchemists, imo.

Both slime molds and dragonflies are amazing because they flaunt much of what we know/believe about intelligence.

Neurons are obviously excellent at handling and developing "intelligent" behavior, but it turns out they're not as necessary as we thought and there may be extreme efficiency gains possible (for specialized problems) over what traditional neural architecture indicates.
If you're referring to melatonin then the science really isn't that clear. Most light suppresses melatonin production.

One of the biggest arguments against blue light (specifically) being disruptive is that the sky spectrum in the evening is also blue (so naturally you'd be exposed to it). Modern airliners use blue lights for overnight flights with red lights at "dawn". I suspect screen brightness is more of an issue than any particular colour.

I was charged an "urban fee" by a business hotel (a Fairmont property) that I used to stay at regularly, because I once had to book it though a discounter because of a company's travel policy.

I used to be an elite member at their hotels and they've now lost all my business for it, which obviously isn't important to them because they didn't even respond to the email I sent them complaining. They must be making enough scamming people this way that they don't care.

Personally I'm not very price sensitive, I'm happy to pay to get my preference. But I'm very sensitive to getting ripped off. If someone wants to charge me a certain price, they better bake it into the up front cost. If they lie to me and make me pay more later, it's literally theft and I'm not giving business to criminals, like Fairmont.

All that said, the airline industry used to have a much bigger problem with lying about the up front price and then adding in a bunch of extra fees when you pay. But ~20 years ago now I think there was some legislation, at least where I am, that required them to advertise the real price. The same should apply to hotels.
Well, of course I don't take issue with the parent's choice. I just note this reductionism about "alcohol" as if quality ciders, lambics, barley wines, ales, wines, reds, whites, bubbles, distilled grappas... I can't even come up with all the different variations... are all the same substance.

I find a hint of patronizing zeal in this; I might be just defensive though, I did -- and still do -- get moralized for my sinful behaviors.

The problem is that eventually it becomes ridiculous to the extent that the process feels, well, just mean.

For example, budget flights in Europe have no cabin baggage included other than a very small bag. There's enough space in the cabin, and logically the cost of adding another 10kg to each person can't be more than 10-15% of the ticket, but it's way more than that to add a normal sized bag.
