I stopped using 1pwd7 as soon as I set up my new Mac, to my surprise I discovered I couldn’t install the classic Firefox extension anymore, even though manifest v3 was delayed on Chrome and Firefox would likely follow the deprecation of v2 much later. I can’t disagree more with other comments, the OP doesn’t want to upgrade, he wants to keep using the classic extension that is now unavailable. I migrated to Bitwarden
Depending what you're ordering, in my experience Chinese sellers on AliExpress can have issues with counterfeits or with chips obviously removed from old boards being sold as "new". If I want to ensure genuine parts I'll go to Farnell, RS, Mouser, or DigiKey.
AI Needs Specialized Processors. Crypto Miners Say They Have Them
> The only reason for me to order from a US based company is faster shipping.

The primary reason I will always prefer to buy electronic parts from Digi-key (or similar) or directly from the manufacturer is that I'm substantially less likely to get counterfeits.
I think your statement and mine can both be true :)
Experience from irregular customer (hobby and education) is that Mouser has not been so bad here in Europe. At least not yet. Haven't used Digikey much because it meant dealing with customs. Haven't checked lately if this has been changed. I've worked professionally with Arrow and it has been nightmare. China just isn't worth of effort – dubious quality with long shipping times. But probably most of the time I've used Farnell (https://www.farnell.com/) and it has been good enough for me.
Hard to know what's going on without seeing your code setup and knowing more details, but it could be related to rate limits. You could consider using something like rotating proxies to help bypass some stuff. If you want to continue to use your own setup, you could integrate rotating proxies through a service. Dropping a link to one that we used for a couple of projects at my workplace.

I'll just add in that I've placed around 30 orders with Mouser over the past few years and have never really had any trouble.

I only ever order UPS 2nd day, because FedEx loves to find excuses to not deliver packages and UPS Mail Innovations usually makes packages disappear, and I don't really see a good reason to save a few dollars for the package to take 5 times as long to arrive.

The only time I had an issue was receiving the wrong color of LCD once. I can't really place too much fault on them, the manufacturers part number was very hard to read and differed by an easily mistakable letter. They gave me a $60 refund and I didn't even have to send it back.
Sure thing! If the race is 20 minutes and each lap takes 2m04s, that means there will be 9.67 laps till the race is over, and you round that up to 10 since partial laps must be finished. You need 2.73 liters per lap, so the 10 laps will use 27.3 liters total. GPT-4 is correct in suggesting a tiny safety buffer above that in case fuel usage differs from expected.
I completely agree, and I'm sorry if anything in my post suggested otherwise.

I really care more about correctness, portability, and long-term maintainability. Optimizing for the idiosyncrasies of a given OS at a given point in time go against them all. Performance can often be increased by adding hardware (or waiting for the next Moore iteration).

There are a few cases where performance is critical, in the sense that, if you don't achieve it, the system is not fit for purpose, but they are vanishingly rare.

Oh man Think Secret was juicy back in the day, it had awesome leaks.

Good times.
This isn't true in many places for lots of reasons. E.g. in California the owner could easily have grandfathered-in low property tax thanks to Prop 13, that you as a new housing purchaser couldn't benefit from. Or there could be NY-style rent regulation that controls the allowable rental price and doesn't take property tax into consideration at all. Or it could simply be that property taxes go up in a neighborhood (which you'd have to pay if you owned) but that rents do not, for whatever reason; this happens all the time.

As a renter, all you care about is what the rent is. If the rent is good, then you're good. Property tax is very much NOT priced into buying a property, and is an ongoing expense to worry about that moves in way that rent does not.

Not really sure what exactly was said. But in a 2 GPU set, you can technically live load weights on 1 GPU while running inference on the other.

At fp32 precision, storing a single layer takes around 40*d_model^2 bytes assuming context length isn’t massive relative to d_model (which it isn’t in GPT-4). At 80GB GPU size this means 40k model width could be stored as a single layer on 1 GPU while still leaving space for the activations. So theoretically any model below this width could run on a 2 GPU set. Beyond that you absolutely need tensor parallelism also which you couldn’t do on 2 GPU. But I think it is a safe assumption that GPT4 has sub 40k model width. And of course if you quantize the model you could even run 2.8x this model width at 4bit

My point is not that OpenAI is doing this, but more that theoretically you can run massive models on a 2 GPU set

Im literally not disputing that she was a fraudster. And I'm not defending Holmes. All scams are frauds, not all frauds are scams. Being a scamster is a form of psychopathy that evinces a knowing willingness to hurt people in the name of self interest. Arguably my claim is scarier. Fraudsters like Holmes are scary because they don't think they are doing anything wrong. The fake it till you make it narrative even gives the perception of a long leash to commit pecadillos on the long road to success, in the context of the "make the world better" narrative of SV. There are more people out there like her, and it's harder to restrain them because they think they are doing something good and to boot they appear (maybe even are, if slightly) less psychopathic at a first glance.

In their official blog post today, Google says this:

"PaLM 2’s improved multilingual capabilities are allowing us to expand Bard to new languages, starting today. Plus, it’s powering our recently announced coding update."

and when I check the Updates tab in Bard UI, it has this entry for today:

"Expanding access to Bard in more countries and languages. You can now collaborate with Bard in Japanese and Korean, in addition to US English. We have also expanded access to Bard in all three languages to over 180 countries."

which seems to strongly imply that it is, indeed, PaLM 2. Just to be sure, I gave it the same puzzle in Korean, and got a similarly lackluster response.

I also always checked Digi-Key first and then Mouser second if Digi-Key is out of stock on something I need. (Unless it was a TI part; their direct online ordering process is quite nice). But going forward I'll reconsider Mouser.

My issue with the matter is that I have ADHD, and I didn't seek treatment because of wanting to perform better a my job. It's literally the difference between me keeping my job or not, not crashing my car into another person's vehicle, etc..

I still vastly under-perform compared to my peers despite being medicated. Any person that was taking stimulant medications without ADHD would absolutely blow me out of the water -- it's the main issue I have in regards to stimulants. It's be like a professional athlete taking steroids or other PEDs when competing against a high school aged sports team.

When other people use stimulant medication for non-medical purposes then it causes me to be measured against an echelon of performance that is basically unobtainable i.e. the best I can function at is no longer "good enough."

I mean, sure, there are probably a few other factors that also contribute to my issues other than just medication (lack of organization skills, past traumas, etc.), but it has been something I noticed even back when I was in college a decade ago. I knew plenty of people that faked symptoms to get a prescription. Meanwhile, I had to go through all kinds of testing, interviews, etc. to get legitimately diagnosed.

However, I do not fault the individuals who take any substance medicinally or otherwise. We are all trying to make in this world, and I think a lot of our culture has created a demand that leaves many with no other options -- sink or swim.

I was on an engineering team in college that built full-size racecars (the competition was called Formula SAE). Digikey offered us a 10-15% discount, depending on the parts we were buying, and Mouser offered a 3% discount (at that point, why even bother?). Digikey's discount was easier to use too. Occasionally Mouser had something that Digikey didn't but I tried to order from Digikey as much as possible.

My understanding that the more well known sites (such as Cult of Mac, Mac Rumors, 9to5Mac etc) avoid paying for leaks because it creates poor incentives and legal issues.
Reporting on leaked documents is not a crime. Providing financial, sexual, or other incentives for leaked documents could be a crime. Publishing certain parts of leaked documents (i.e. reporting on a major breach of 1 million social security numbers, by publishing all of the leaked numbers; or reporting the Nintendo breach by posting Nintendo's source code), could be a crime or civil issue on a circumstantial basis.

For groups like Wikileaks, it helps that US government documents and laws, with limited exceptions, are not copyrighted or copyrightable in the US. So when they report a huge NSA scandal and publish those documents, the government can't claim copyright infringement... but they will tear the place apart to find the leaker. And of course, spy on the reporter extremely closely for any possible legal slip-up no matter how small (or, arguably, if they hate the reporter enough, make something up).
