That's a fascinating and complex system. That suggests that restaurant consumption is relatively fixed as well but quality of cut is flexible at the lower margin. I wonder if there's any way to analyze the whole picture. I suppose that would require insight into the total sales of processors, which may or may not be proprietary.

I also wonder if the quality adjusted analysis for Consumer consumption would show a different price sensitivity to shock for high-end cuts in the market
The entire blog post fit into the context window. I did not use GPT-4 to summarize the whole paper. Either way, I found the summary informative after reading the blog post end-to-end in the more human manner anyway. I don't think GPT-4 missed anything crucial from the blog.
On my system VLC just doesn't play the files from shares. No problem if I copy the files locally.

There's something in the error logs, I spent many hours trying to get it work a year ago but I just gave up and went back to SMPlayer on Xorg.

VLC also has issues with audio, apparently VLC doesn't play ball with PulseAudio or something like that, so I get massive audio dropout for quite a while when skipping/jumping in the video file. Yay. Something about clocks going back in time or something. IIRC there's a fix pending, so maybe in a year or two...
Yes, although I don't think that's the best use of an LLM. I worked for a company that specialized in doing that for marketing purposes.
The problem of modern companies (public or private) is that institutional shareholders demand greater profits even if it affects the companies' long-term prospect. They simply want that line to go up, they don't bother much with the details of the company.
we are all in a bit of a bubble but i feel like if you put gpt4 up against the median man on the street it would be better at literally everything, except maybe one or two things that person specializes in
I've been pasting comments in to ChatGPT and asking what they mean by certain terms or phrases and it works extremely well and with an answer I can independently verify to be true. Far more useful than getting a simple dictionary lookup.

An example response I got recently:

>In the context of this comment, "dovish" means that the speaker perceives Powell's statement to be more accommodative towards economic growth and less concerned about inflation than Lowe's statement. This suggests that Powell may be more inclined to keep interest rates low or lower them further to stimulate economic growth, rather than raise them to combat inflation. The term "dove" is often used to describe policymakers who prioritize economic growth over inflation concerns. In contrast, "hawkish" refers to policymakers who prioritize fighting inflation over economic growth.

Meanwhile google gives me this response for a defintion

>Definitions of dovish. adjective. opposed to war. synonyms: pacifist, pacifistic peaceable, peaceful. not disturbed by strife or turmoil or war.

> And yet people just expect high traffic to pay the bills, which it can if your monetization strategy is ads, but the HN crowd is fond of ad blockers and vocally critical of ads.

For me the problem is not ads but the inevitable AdTech pushed under the guise of "ads". Too many sites want me to enable what they call ads but are really incredibly invasive spying systems. Many are compromised and actually deliver malware.

The whole situation is made worse by the "ads" serving up a bunch of shit I didn't ask for. The text content of some article is a fraction of the size of the tracking scripts and auto-playing video. Everyone could save a lot on costs by not serving me a multi-megabyte video next to a 30kB blog post.

“I can do more for you if you just eat right and exercise” - Dr. McCoy from “The Omega Glory” ST:TOS
I only wear G-Shocks for this reason, though I also love the more aesthetic models. I have a dressier one that I wear to nice/fancy events, but my daily driver is the solar powered multi-band radio adjusted one. In the first month of owning my daily driver, I hit a giant pothole on my commute ride home from construction that hadn't been marked yet and took a huge fall; I was biking at 17 mph unfortunately since I was at work late and the streets were pretty empty. The crash gave me some pretty bad road rash, some bruises, and destroyed my helmet.

The G-Shock hit the ground first and slid along with me. Other than disfigurement on the part of the bezel that slid, the watch was fine. Later on, I filed off some of the chewed up parts of the rubber and the watch now only looks minorly scuffed. Years later it's been on swims, dives, hikes, camps, long bike rides, been with me through carpentry, and travel, and it's still going strong with mostly the scuff marks to show for. I also frequently shower with it. I love never having to think about it; the watch just works. I sometimes fall asleep with it on and forget I even had it.

As a Greek, living in Greece i second most of the terms. Know thyself (γνώθι σαυτόν) is a big one as well. Ancient Greeks were masters of psychology, i.e. what kind of animal humans are. Are we a good creature by nature or a bad one?

The more we study chimps the more we realize that we, as their descendants, are pretty vicious as well. Education by our parents, schools and social circles play a big role, to keep in check that viciousness. How much is any ones guess!

In my opinion we are gonna solve many of the psychological problems of humans in single digit years in the near future. Dr. Daniel Amen, have stated that after examining a hundred thousand brain scans of humans, every single psychological problem people have, is observed in brain scans, as reduced electrical signals in the brain. Problems like suicidal thoughts, depression you name it. Every one of them, means the brain do not fire enough electrical signals.

The best natural substance in the world, which we produce here in Greece from the ancient times, to solve that problem, is saffron. It is on par with the best synthetic anti-depressants, and probably better. Dr. Amen eats saffron every day, and i do as well.

So there is a solution for every person on the planet to be genius 1000x or a 1.000.000x, never suffer psychological ailments, and that is to eat a lot of saffron every day. Then most of the virtues in that list, will come natural to humans.

Perhaps the workers should monetize the implicit factors of the job in order to get their true value. After all, labelling is one thing. Labelling correctly is another thing entirely. Labelling at high speed is another thing. Labelling in more than one language is yet another thing, and so on.
That's exactly what I'm trying to do. Play with prompts, generate multiple questions and cluster questions and pick some of the centroid questions to do embeddings
Think this is what we are doing. Few of our 'decision' are free, most are genetic. Genetic being, i was born with some propensity for some particular hormone, which leads to some particular decisions. It is completely beyond our ability to choose, because all of those pre-cursors already chose for us and it feels free. Of course we have free will, we just don't have free will to choose what we will. Schopenhauer had it right.
Jon Elster’s ‘Ulysses and the Sirens’ is about akrasia, more or less; in situations where we know we are likely to act against our own best interests, how do we credibly commit ourselves to doing the right thing, like Ulysses binding himself to the mast?

Historically, it has been warfare that seems to have driven a large part of democracy and enfranchisement.

An example that is brought up is the Athenian navy. Because they relied on lots of common people to row, it shaped their political system to favor democracy over the more elite Spartans.

The downfall of feudalism may have had a lot to do with mass infantry and/or archers showing their worth versus elite mounted knights.

I have a fairly typical AMD 3600 cpu and 5700xt with a mid tier common mobo. All stuff that's super consumer and a few years old now. And I still encounter tons of random issues. And updates that break stuff that used to work.

Sure, its a lot worse for brand new laptops. But it never entirely works to the level you'd get from macOS.
So why is it worse in the US, when the spending is ostensibly higher? What is the root cause of this inefficiency?

Yes. And that gets into the awkward bit. LLMs are incidentally good as databases/search engines for information that is prevalent on the internet and not disputed. Ideally we could separate the LLM from the information. So when asking it for a definition you'd provide your query, the source comment, and then the computer would add in the definition and some uses in context.

Right now we've tangled an understanding of language and a corpus of information together in a way that causes distrust in AI. If the AI gets some fact wrong (like Bard did when demo'd earlier this year) people laugh and think LLMs are a failure. They should not be used for information recall. That is a task that a vector database would be good at.
The fancy names and the layering makes it a little tricky to understand. The core of the imaging model is called Quartz. It provides support for rendering 2D shapes and text. Its graphics rendering functionality is exported through the Quartz 2D API, which is implemented in Core Graphics. Quartz is also used for window management: the Quartz Compositor, a lightweight window server, is implemented partly in the WindowServer application and partly in the Core Graphics framework. Quartz 2D uses PDF as the native format for its drawing model. In other words, it stores rendered content internally as PDF, which facilitates features such as automagic PDF screenshots, export/import of PDF data natively, and rasterizing PDF data. Quartz 2D also does device-independent and resolution-independent rendering of bitmap images, vector graphics, and anti-aliased text. NEXTSTEP's window server was based on Display PostScript, so was Sun's NeWS (~1986).
One other thing with fuel fees is that they aren’t taxed the same way airline tickets are, so there is a tax benefit to charging for fuel fees as well.
Charging extra for Wi-Fi definitely isn’t common anymore, but it used to be, and it was more common for higher end hotels.

Again, we don’t need to be whining about the airplane food situation. We’re all supposed to be adults here.

All sorts of food items can be taken through security. You can plan ahead and bring a sandwich or trail mix or something of that sort. You don’t need restaurants to be open to feed yourself. Maybe just eat before you get to the airport. It really isn’t hard.

40% of Americans have obesity and they’re over here acting like they’ll starve without complimentary meals on their flight. Everyone literally spends around 12 hours between dinner and breakfast without eating so I think you we can all handle a 5 hour flight without a full meal.
Fair enough that it's freeing overall if your org is so large that it is faster to always be 100% backwards compatible for aeons.

I didn't say it wasn't an effective strategy, since as it happened and we're alive, clearly, luckily, it was. It's just that a plan to blow up a small part of the lunar surface seems fairly not-horrific compared to the actually authorised and deployed plan with a intentional 9-figure death toll and the practical annihilation of many allied countries (the UK in particular was not projected¹ to do very well at all).

I'm afraid your comments are unfortunately still well on the wrong side of the HN guidelines. In your GP comment, "someone who's been programming for longer than I've been alive but seems to lack reading comprehension" is a swipe, and the comment I'm replying to here is way too aggressive. "I expect you to test" is supercilious, "complete nonsense" is name-calling, "I don't believe you could fix it in APL [...] but then again you can't seem to fix it in any other language either" is a personal putdown, as is "Clearly rust is too as you posted rust code that doesn't work".

I happen personally to agree with you about shallow dismissals of APL and the other array languages and have felt rather strongly about it at times as well, so I completely get where you're coming from. But that makes it painful for someone like me to read nasty posts flaming people for getting it wrong (or what you and I would call wrong). All that achieves is to alienate not only the person you're talking to but also any neutral readers who don't know much about the subject—and that is the vast majority of readers. It not only doesn't help your (our) position, it gives people a new reason to have negative associations with these little-understood languages, which are much too beautiful and powerful to deserve that.

You clearly know a lot about this topic and you're more than welcome to share what you know on HN. One function of this site is to be an educational hub for non-mainstream knowledge about computing (and other topics as well, but especially computing). However, we need you to do so within the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) which includes being respectful and kind to people who know less than you.

It's great that you edited out the worst personal attack and the fact that you did that makes it clear that you have good intentions—which I appreciate. But it isn't enough to leave posts that are full of putdowns. We really can't bend these rules, nor is it in your interest for us to bend them because, as I said, all they do is make your minority position even more of a minority position, and that hurts you yourself as well as the rest of us who love these languages.

I definitely hope you'll keep posting and sharing interesting things about APL, but if you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and take the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

> Does worker exploitation not matter as long as a North Korean farmer (or whoever) is earning less, working more, and suffering regular injury?

This isn't worker exploitation. This is White People Bullshit. Are you seriously comparing a guy who does the equivalent of surfing 4chan all day to a DPRK farmer?

Every Asian, Black, Indian, and Mexican in a 2000-mile radius around either of us figured this out generations ago.

> Cost of living for a single person in a 1-bedroom apartment outside the city center is about $2200 a month. Guess what? After taxes, that's more than you earn working 40 hours a week at this job. The only thing your snarky comment proves is that the regional minimum wage is criminally low.

Save water, shower together.

2-bedroom apartments aren't much more expensive than that. Between two people, you're down to $1250 for rent. Each additional party halves it again. One simple trick to affordable housing!

But that involves having to cohabitate or share anything with other humans, something most people seem fundamentally incapable of these days. Roommates? Gross! Marriage? Never!

I've never been able to afford a 1-bedroom apartment in my life, and don't expect to. I'm not losing sleep over some guy getting paid $15 an hour to do a job requiring so little skill it could be performed while drunk not being able to afford the luxury of living alone.
Seems interesting. Will consider reading the whole article if someone posts an archive link
For the most recent year I have information, iPhone was 47% of Apple's revenue, services 21%, Mac 13%, wearables and accessories 11%, and iPad 8%. (rounded)

Macs are barely more of a revenue generator than wearables and accessories, which is stuff like Apple Watch, iPod, Apple TV, Beats Electronics and Apple-branded and third-party accessories. Services is iTunes Store, the App Store, the Mac App Store, the iBooks Store, AppleCare, Apple Pay, licensing and other services. Source: https://www.statista.com/statistics/382260/segments-share-re...

Apple is an entertainment device company that happens to also sell the development platform for iOS, and that platform can also be used for other kinds of development, the kind that supports the backend. A good thing, too, because Apple's cloud services and data centers use Linux and a lot of other non-Mac things necessary for Apple's services to generate revenue.
It's not excusable. It's horrible but no more horrible than the rest of the child exploitation globally to make the stuff we want which is not possible without....child labor. It is a simple fact of the matter. Point fingers but my stuff and your stuff is made with child labor. No way around it. It is the way the world works. Break it and the stuff starts getting really really expensive. I'm ok with that but only because I have the the coin to pay for it. Not the case for everyone else. They want the stuff. And cheap. Solution? Nobody has one.
Having excellent semantic based compression is an enormous technological advancement. The fact that petabytes of textual information - effectively the entire history of the world in written text can be compressed to just a few hundred gigabytes (likely the size of GPT-4) or a bit more lossy to something at ~8 GB that can be put on a raspberry pi (Llama) is astounding. Regardless of whether people debate about 'reasoning' capabilities, or 'memorization/plagiarism' (or recalls facts), etc.

This is quite fascinating from a compression / database perspective because clearly semantic compression is far more efficient for semantic data (this is obvious, but has been hard to get started on until about 5 years ago). It still may not be in quite the right framework for this, but in time it may come.
Water resistance ratings of 30 meters don’t mean that you can dive with it up to 30 meters. Those ratings are related to static pressure tests.

Generally 30 meters shouldn’t be submerged, 50 meters is okay for swimming, above that diving is acceptable to certain limit. True diving watches start with 200 meters and preferably ISO diver's certification (which SKX has).

I’ve never seen a dual surcharge except on the final receipt breakdown where I learn the ticket price is only about half of what I paid. From Google Flights through to checkout it’s all inclusive of fees.

I think this might be due to EU legislation requiring that. Maybe time for the US to crack down on it in a similar way.
This doesn't surprise me much. From what I've seen consulting/contracting, SaaS-based observability tends to cost 30-50% of cloud spend--EC2, storage, S3, RDS, maybe k8s, and other cloud services, or whatever the equivalent is on GCP/Azure. I wouldn't be surprised to see Coinbase with a >$150M quarterly cloud spend, so $65M on observability would make sense.

That said, managing observability yourself should result in <5% of cloud spend. So I'm figuring someone at Coinbase said "WTF" to this bill and migrated to Grafana/Loki or Kibana/OpenSearch or Kibana/Elastic. Well, that, and Coinbase's business also dropped off a cliff. Combined, I could easily see a one-time influx of $65M from one customer, gone the next quarter.
To disambiguate, you mean we are evolutionary cousins, i think
