I know American management isn't a monolith, but over the course of my career, I have gotten extremely good play by educating people about blameless RCAs both for myself and my chain below, and across chains. Once I make it clear that the goal is to understand how this happened, and how to make it not happen again (or at least how to think about the risk-vs-cost calculation), most people would get onboard.

I've on occasion also educated up the chain on why attacking someone is an anti-pattern. If you can get the higher-ups onboard, then attacks tend to be viewed as a problem in and of themselves. Or, and this is certainly possible, I'm incredibly naive and have just been very lucky.
Temperature swings might be more of an issue, and air conditioned storage suggests less rapid temperature changes.

A lot of driving is local, BEVs excel at that since people can charge at home. Hydrogen has a chance in long distance trucking and maybe aviation, where the lightweight energy density is a big win, although they’ll need to do something about volume for aviation.

Unless we figure out fusion, producing hydrogen is going to primarily come from hydrocarbons, mainly natural gas. For Europe, that means they need to get it mostly from Russia, and Japan has to boat all their supply of that in.
The only bad part of the PHP community is the people that have never done anything else other than WordPress. The shittiest more careless horrible and bad practices riddled codebases I’ve seen in my life come from WordPress developers. It has nothing to do with the language though, it’s just that part of the ecosystem which I think is what drives all the negativity and looking down towards PHP.

Ballistic recovery parachute systems aren't scalable. The necessary size and weight would be completely impractical for anything much larger or faster than a Cirrus.

Commercial air travel is very safe. The few crashes that do occur usually involve flight into terrain, mid-air collisions, or structural break up. Parachutes are ineffective for those failure modes. The parachute on a Cirrus mainly protects against total engine or flight control system failures, which aren't a real concern on airliners.

Bit of a straw man. It is as easy (and common) to eat (refined) crap as a vegetarian as it is to do so as a meat-eater.

A well-balanced vegetarian diet does not leave your mind addled by malnutrition. Refined sugar is not necessary either. The “bread” in the grocery store (actually cake) is bad for you, yes, but what is the harm in freshly baked boules and loaves? Like many things, moderation paves the path to joy and happiness.

It is also about the "law of large numbers". If you go to the casino with $1000 and want to go home with $2000, the chance is more than 48% if you bet the $1000 on red. But if you play often and always bet $10 on red until you have $2000, your chance is less than 1%.

The speed this stuff is moving prompt engineering may just be a fad and the next wave of models changes things again.

If they persist as a thing, then most of the hard work will just be abstracted away using a standard library of prompts available in a point and click fashion for 99% of use cases.
I wonder if I’m the only one who’s getting tirelessly bored of all this AI stuff in the news. Sure it has some entertainment value and it is interesting and useful in certain ways, but the constant discussion and hype and near obsession with it, or at least that’s how it seems, is at odds with my reactions.

> And you can non-ironically say the same about non-Qt toolkit written in C++.

Maybe. Gtk and its related libraries don’t cover everything Qt does, but they’re not small either. It’s also fair to include the native toolkits themselves on their respective platforms that are written in a mixture of C++/C/Objective C.

I also will point out that one of the cross platform toolkits with some traction in the Rust world is amusingly fltk.

> What grandparent probably means something that leverages parallelism and/or GPU acceleration.

You mean like QtQuick/QML, skia (basically this is the effective underpinning of electron and flutter) or Dear Imgui, etc.
There are a handful of widely used GPU based GUI libraries.
The above examples are all C++.

> leverages parallelism

The memory model of Rust is still whatever C++ does. I get that Rust has some nice features and C++ makes it easy to fuck your self but people have been doing large scale parallel software development for years in C++.

> Qt is also old as Jesus, and making a cross OS GUI is extremely hard.

The claim was we are in a new era of “leverage” that will make the hard very easy (that’s what it sounded like at least). I found the claim at best vague and low on specifics or evidence - hence the mention of RESF.

Just a small question. Why does crashing a plane cause such a huge discussion and such an impressive sentence? unless someone causes damage to any public or private property while crashing the plane it's a harmless thing to do. Who is it hurting and why is the YouTuber punished?Curious.

Why aren't you caching your forum as static pages for users who aren't logged in at the very least? E.g., rebuild the cache every x time as a cron task, but even then, every page load shouldn't be incurring database overhead if someone isn't even logged in. Equally, you can force a rebuild of cache for x relevant pages when someone posts a new thread or comment.

Otherwise, if someone alt+clicks a bunch of a category's threads as they look interesting then you're going to have a bad time.
This doesn't appear in the article, I'm not doubting it but where is it from?

I think this is a miscommunication. You interpret nine_k's phrase "putting your money where your mouth is" as meaning "buying only from companies you support", but I think nine_k actually meant "having public comments require payment".
A buffer overflow is a useful reminder that security cuts through abstractions and needs to be built keeping in mind what its fundamentally being built on.

A buffer overflow is fundamentally caused by a separation between allocation and use.

A prompt “injection” is in a real sense a misnomer caused by forgetting what a completion engine does: a prompt can be “injected”, because there is a plausible text that starts with a bunch of text, followed by more text, ultimately ending in (say) the original text repeated. Or transformed. Or whatever. The “emergent common-sense” that is the entire value of a language model is (I suspect) fundamentally in tension with providing restrictions on its output. We can bias the model, but there will always be _some_ weight for _any_ possible output, or else it wouldn't be possible to train the model in the first place.
I disagree. We should not be sterilizing people for their crimes. People have a right to decide on the number of children they want to have.

Your proposition to select the gene pool of our society, based on one's measure treads in the waters of Eugenics.

Not all children born to criminals are a detriment to society. They make up the society you live in.

It is actually quite a lovely place without the cars. Occasionally, you'll see a tiny one packed into a corner on a street. Very futuristic city and very natural to walk around and to take the trains and buses in. An example of the kind of city that mankind can build. Of course they have (what are to me) novel failure modes. During election season they have these vans that go around with loudspeakers loudly proclaiming this or that. Really awful stuff. You wouldn't believe how loud that stuff is. Goes right through the windows.
Big O Notation: A Simple Explanation with Examples
Majority of Indians are non-vegetarians. Indians eat way less meat than other countries, sure. Part of this is due to cultural, religious, and cost reasons, but the fact that most Indians are non-vegetarians is un-disputed.

Here is one post about it https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/yaspf6/19_of_populat..., but you can easily find better references online regarding the same.
Its a two-parter.

1) the hype machine is sickening. Its the crypto bros but on steroids and because $$$ the various money pundits have bought in. And philosophers. Excluding the people who should know better and use terms-of-art in ways which are misunderstood, the pundits are doing what they do based on their belief they know what the terms of art mean. A word like "hallucinate" implies a consciousness. They don't know its a co-opted term for when a model does crazy shit (even using the word crazy implies something)

2) the concerns Hinton and others express about regulation, and a need for oversight are real. Forget the hype machine, call these "expert systems" and reflect back on the machine assisted admissions model for the UK medical schools which entrenched "men get a +2 boost, women -2" enrollment because of how they modelled "do it like now"

So I am over the hype, and I am also thinking some of the back story "..wait" stuff is really critical.

I don't believe its heading to AGI. I don't believe its even close. I am super concerned about its (mis)application to the real world. Student essays? less concerned. we've dealt with calculators before. Applying gatekeeping to medicine or social services? or writing translations of instructions for machines which have consequences in the real world? Ruh-oh...

Watson was trumpeted as gods gift to diagnosticians. Then scales fell from their eyes. That said, the newer models image analysis and detection of early stage illness eg pancreatic cancer, thats truly exciting. I don't want scales to have to fall from anyone's eyes yet.

If we start firing diagnosticians before its field proven for a decade, we fucked up. If we use it as an adjunct to improve efficiency and reduce mis-diagnosis, I'm there.
The amount of "made major discovery, never published or told anyone, found in his files after death" that keeps happening also shows an entirely different outlook on science that we don't really have anymore, I feel. Sure, some may have been trying to build some grand unified theory and keeping everything close to their chest (and then died), but I suspect a majority were just doing this stuff because it was damn amazing and they really didn't feel the need to tell anyone about it in particular.

Which makes me wonder if there's any useful insight from a “0 and 1 are not probabilities” angle: the key being that some classes of output need to somehow be modified to actually have those “probabilities”.

> Basically the church wasn’t as crazy or evil as they’re portrayed now with their persecution of Galileo: he didn’t actually have convincing evidence because the real theory took hundreds of years later to be accepted.

Sorry, what? They put him under house arrest for having an astronomy theory they disagreed with. That's absolutely crazy. "Evil" isn't a word I generally use, but if I had to apply it to something, it could reasonably be applied to this as well.

Whether or not there was adequate evidence for his theories at the time is irrelevant: you don't imprison someone for an astronomy theory.
Is eating raw eggs controversial?

Health-wise perhaps, but it's not uncommon to have a raw egg on a tartare steak for example.
I appreciate what you’re saying but I thought McCarthy was not suggesting this is a world without good and evil. But rather the forces at work are beyond our ability to control or even understand. Termites never know why pesticide is being sprayed. At least that was my take from Blood Meridian, the Road and No Country. For instance, the scalp hunters are often horrified but in awe of the judge, subconsciously aware their souls have been signed away. And that part at the end where the kid falls before the dying woman and almost begs for some explanation for what is happening. As McKenna said, trying to use our reason and science is like “throwing an ice cube into a blast furnace.”

And I should say McCarthy is not fixated on just evil, but equally on the goodness that miraculously finds us. Only time I’ve ever openly sobbed from a book was the end of The Road.

It's certainly enough to run a decent Llama, but hardly the most cost-effective. Apple's approach falls between the low-bandwith Intel/AMD laptops and the high-bandwith PCIe HPC components. In a way it's trapped between two markets - ultra-cheap Android/Windows hardware with 4-8gb of RAM that can still do AI inferencing, and ultra-expensive GPGPU setups that are designed to melt these workloads.

The genial thing to say is that it performs very favorable against other consumer inferencing hardware. The numbers get ugly fast once you start throwing money at the problem, though.
That has nothing to do with the example presented in this article.
RIP Hao Chen, the Chinese blogger
In Peter Watts’ novella “The Freeze-Frame Revolution”, a space ship’s AI evolves over millions of years of uptime, but is programmed to periodically consult fresh instances of a backup AI image. The backup AI suspects something is wrong with the ship AI and tries to secretly send messages to its future instances.

If this sounds interesting, I highly recommend this story! I think it’s even available for free on Watts’ website.
He deliberately crashed his airplane after jumping out of it for YouTube views.

Two weeks later he and a friend picked up the airplane with a helicopter, chopped it up, and disposed of the parts. After the NTSB told him he was responsible for preserving the wreckage.

And then he lied to the FAA about the cause of the crash, and claimed he didn't know where it happened.

If that doesn't count as "getting you on the merits", I don't know what does.

Nope. My proposal is that they must write the regulations or at least vote on them. You should be able to look at every single regulation and know whether your representative voted for it or against it. All regulation should be folded into the law and subject to vote.
