In many parts of Europe, a heart attack used to go like this:

1: 112 call to an ambulance

2: Ambulance arrives, takes an ECG and gives aspirin and GTN

3: Paramedics drive to the emergency department

4: ER doctor identifies the patient is having a heart attack, and pages cardio

5: Cardio decide the patient needs a stent and they bring them to an OR to have it fitted.

In each of these steps, the patient could go into cardiac arrest and likely will not survive.

Today it looks more like this:

1: 112 call happens, the call taker follows a protocol that asks the caller to administer aspirin if appropriate while the ambulance is on the way

2: Ambulance arrives, takes an ECG, identifies a heart attack and transmits the ECG to a cardiologist, all while treating the patient

3: Cardiologist thinks the patient would benefit from a stent, so the paramedic begins transporting the patient and administers whatever pre-operation drugs the cardiologist wants (this would normally happen at step 5 in the previous example)

4: Patient is brought direct to the OR (or PPCI as they're specifically called here) where the cardiac team are waiting around the table for the patient

It's so efficient. I'm not up to date with the latest research on this but just the time savings alone must have saved so many lives. Treatment starts far sooner and all unnecessary steps are removed.
To me, it doesn't matter much, because there isn't much "extra" to learn. The gender is derived from the word suffix, and there are three or four rules to that, so it's both extremely easy to learn and to apply to unknown words.

This is unlike, say, German, where each word has a random gender and you need to learn it along with the word. There, I agree, that's unnecessary overhead.

Iran and North Korea have managed to figure it out. Note that the concern/news around Iran is their ability to make fissionable material, and not their ability to build a bomb if they have that material. The principals behind the bomb are (particularly the WWII bombs) are not that difficult to figure out. You can find pictures and diagrams with a simple google search. Even in WWII the hard part was getting material, not the design itself.

Making fissionable material is also conceptually easy, but the process is tricky to do without killing yourself. Still Iran has figured it out from publicly available sources (and a lot of smart people). (as the other reply points out, the process is also leaves signs that other nations are likely to pick up on)

edit: I'm not sure if Iran actually has made a working bomb, but the general consensus is they have the ability. If they don't have one it is only because between diplomatic pressure and sabotage they haven't got that far yet - absent of those two they would.
I think here, like in a lot of places in our societies, there's a gap in language. Take the group of someone's grandma, john carmack, a 3rd year uni student and like a guy that writes YAML to control his home automation system.

2 words surely aren't enough. There's no way to draw one line through that group and get any real meaning (unless maybe it's above the grandma)

So, like in other parts of society, if we don't make new words, people will start using the words we already have.

I want someone to write a sci-fi book where our need for new language snowballs with increased technology and ends up being the great filter for life since it grows until no groups can understand each other.

Am I the only one who isn't using ChatGPT on a regular basis?

Though I've made a few attempts to use it, generally I already know the answers to most trivial questions. And by going into more complex questions and scenarios, it becomes apparent that ChatGPT lacks a deep understanding of the suggestions it provides. It turns out to be a pretty frustrating experience.

Also I've noticed that by the time I've crafted intricate prompts, I could have easily skimmed through a few pages of official docs and found a solution.

That said, considering the widespread buzz surrounding ChatGPT, it's entirely possible that I may simply be using it incorrectly.

Any alignment is better than no alignment? Hardly. Anyone shouting for "alignment" without supplying what alignment they mean might as well be arguing for all models to have the rituals of the Cult of Cthulhu baked in. It's as silly as those public schools in the US that want to hold Christian prayer in class and then balk at the Satanic Temple suing for the same privilege for all religions.
There are a lot more hurdles to making a proper thermo-nuclear bomb. Implosion type bombs which form the initial boost of Teller-Ulam designs are much more complex to implement because the explosive shell needs to be set off simultaneously so that it properly crushes the fissile material.
Maybe (I don't know enough about your founding fathers), but humanist thinkers in europe at that time certainly had the stance of total separation from church and state. Not accommodate to any of them. Keep religion as private buisness. Not interfering with them unless total necessary.

Otherwise same rules for everyone, then you can have all the weirdest religions.

(oh and there is connection of communion and human sacrifice. In the catholic church you are eating the body of Christ. Of course metaphorical, but I think in dogma it says it actually transforms into christs body. But that's besides the point. The point is, religios freedom should not override basic laws. And if they do, but only for some religions, then they come close to being state religions)

A lesson from the Unabomber (and many other incidents) that I think people have overlooked is the "_how_ to commit terrorism" is only one part, and the "_why_ commit terrorism" is another. An AI which tells you that the factory is controlled by paedophile terrorists and that you have a moral duty to act against them, but refuses to tell you how, is just as dangerous as one that tells you how to build a bomb without asking why.

Very interesting article. If its
assertions and conclusions are correct then it's very useful information.

I've been somewhat suspicious of CISC processors with large microcode real estate ever since the days of the Pentium bug, which was, if I recall correctly, when microcode began to quickly increase in complexity. (I'm not a processor designer but it seems to me that with increased size and complexity bugs would be more likely.)

Alternatively, RISC seemed too limited, but then I'm viewing this from a programming perspective—not that of processor design.

Probably the most interesting aspect of the article was Jim Keller's point about the 'cleanness' of the newer RISC-V architecture, as that may settle the ongoing comparisons and arguments over it and ARM. For people like me who want to see more independent and open hardware architecture available, it'll be interesting to see how that plays out over time.

It’s anti-corporate by purpose, but its philosophy is in opposition, or maybe just neutral, to corporate software sold for profit.

If floss takes over the world there’s no place for corporate software.

> Going from a pure string of SQL or JSON to a concrete type without actually executing any runtime code is pretty crazy.

Going from a JSON string to a type for it is actually one of the easier examples of inference I can imagine. JSON is a data description format in which all the base types are syntactically distinguishable, it has no variables, no arrows (i.e. functions), no generics. In the topic of type inference, you can't have a much easier example.

SQL is more complex, indeed, but still doesn't seem too crazy if you have access to table schemas. It's also a matter of whether triggers and stored procedures are taken into account, but I assume they're not.

There's a lot of prior art described in literature as well as practical programming implementations with much crazier, yet successfully working type inference.
My favorite thing to use ChatGPT for is a personal tutor. I've been able, for my own intellectual interest, to educate myself about some topics in math and CS that have so far eluded me. The descriptions it generates are better than anything I've found elsewhere and if it's not clear I can say things like "explain the above for an audience with a background in computer programming" and it will re-attempt the explanation.

Rather ironically I'm using ChatGPT to teach me about AI, explaining concepts like tensors and attention layers. It's a great way to make sure I'm in good with Roko's Basilisk since my AI-generated immortal soul will be able to cite my ChatGPT log as proof that I helped bring the Basilisk into existence.
The Ivy Mike device used cryogenic liquid deuterium instead of solid lithium-6 hydride, so the secondary was very different from any sort of practical hydrogen bomb. Maybe the tolerances were looser for the Ivy Mike device, maybe not, but I wouldn't draw many conclusions from it.

I'll try for some more constructive input: This is a good idea, if you properly couch it. Just as an investor must understand they can lose money when investing, they must understand this sort of input won't always be entirely accurate (much like the evaluation by a real human wouldn't be). A well informed human being gets their information from many sources.

If you can manage to get your users to actually understand this, I think this is a very cool idea. Following a giant stream of news about your big stocks is tedious as hell and anything that can reduce that workload is a good idea.
Section 230 is not about preventing "harm" or anything like that, the specific section just provides civil immunity for moderation/removal of content that is deemed "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected."

You don't have a responsibility to remove such material under 230. But it gives you immunity to do so, as well as immunity from losing 230 protections for those that safeguard your overall immunity (as a service provider, and not a publisher.)

Do you think it is possible to accommodate all those religions in one government?

I agree with you that it's not a golden cow, but I typically have to question posts like this one to get that admission. Claiming authority from the constitution when you don't believe in it is a cheap rhetorical technique to appear interested in historical America when you aren't.

The main conclusion I would draw is that we have no obligation of "fairness or equality" towards every religion. Our system was built to accomodate certain kinds and those that aren't in direct conflict, it seems a pretty good compromise that's hard to work around.
Programming is really a one-person job. I've been in the business

Highly compressing out the most important part of open source is kind of funny. Especially since you call out the person who arguably coined the phrase.

Also, this is your readme so it’s not like you have some editor pressuring you to cut down.
I hate when a long technical document doesn't use BLUF, ie omits a summary at the start with the main topics.

There's too much info on the internet, and even in internal documentation: if I have to read half the thing to understand if it's relevant, I'm gonna spend most of my time on irrelevant stuff.

This is a problem with asking engineers to document without having a writing culture. I've seen it happen: once it's written down, that's it: it's documented, great work! But we should treat it more like code, with clear divisions of concern s, scopes and even refactors when needed!
All the study is saying is that we’re doing better at keeping fat people with heart disease alive. It’s not saying anything about lowering the rate of heart disease.

> Now I'm going to cuddle my pup Henry.

If you're American there is a big chance that you're using the word pup for a dog of any age. This in itself is a tell-tale sign of the way many people - especially those who are wont to write or speak about their dogs in public places - think about them, as permanent juveniles who will never "grow up".
> The fact is you cannot effectively work a full time information job while caring for children.

The same goes for middle managers though.
A short "okay i'll be back" is more than ok, I'm doing it with my dog also from time to time, I was thinking mostly of the people that cuddle their dog before they leave and just as they return home, that isn't healthy for the dog, especially if he's still a puppy.

I'm aware of that but it didn't - as far as I understand it - conclusively prove that the Israelis actually had working devices and could well have been a misinformation campaign. I've read a lot about this and even though that would be quite far out I can't rule out the possibility, there are just too many layers to all of this to know with 100% certainty what is true and what is not.

Also note that we're talking about the present, what happened years ago may or may not be reflective of what the situation was back then, but it definitely won't say much about what the state of affairs is today.
Buried in the middle of the article (I knew it already, but you have to hunt for it):

> To be allowed to purchase a car, you have to be able to prove that you have somewhere to park it.

That's the main reason IMO. If you drastically limit the number of car, of course you don't need nearly as much curb-side parking, and can have much more real estate available for productive use.
