I feel like there is a way more vibrant driver developer community for Windows anyway. It could be the architecture for kernel drivers Windows has or that many people use it for malware and game cheat development. I have a fond attachment to all the tools you have in your disposal once loaded into the kernel space on Windows. win32kbase.sys being at a certain memory location for all processes, KeUserModeCallback etc. all around really fun and interesting to hack with. Doing DKOM on PEB, TEB of kernel processes or user processes to do things you shouldn't be able to do like call win32 apis from kernel pretending to be a process to draw things using GDI etc.

Even though I primarily am a Linux user and I prefer using Linux on a daily basis, dabbling in Linux kernel development failed to create this feeling of awe and infinite possibilities (and exploitability) in my mind.

I guess my point is, Windows Kernel development in Rust excites me. Same with Linux would be very cool but it doesn't create the same feeling of wonder in me. Perhaps that's why this is happening first.
The architecture specific backends are another significant part of the compiler, including architecture specific optimizations.

I suppose one of the reasons you might think of the llvm project as monstrous is because it's feature-rich.
Because eventually a dependency will make it non concurrent.
Rails is the driving force for adoption in the ruby ecosystem. If it isn't a rails requirement to be concurrent friendly, it will be broadly ignored.

Sounds like a psyop, to make people believe they didn't train their models on copyrighted content, you don't need that rule if your content wasn't trained on copyrighted content to begin with ;)
For those that are using open source js software to build web applications and are able to pick apart and understand what each tool does, his choice of tools are actually tried and true.

Even a C# developer building with aspnet has to reach out to many of these tools: grafana, some hosting service, some log/error monitoring tool.

But at the same time, I think a lot of comments here are pointing at the glaring reminder of how obscenely complex development for the web can be in the JS ecosystem (for new or non-js devs). Why point new engs to remix, prisma, mailgun, insert 3rd party tool when it’s so much better to give them the Ruby on Rails approach? Aspnet, Ruby on Rails, and similar frameworks in all languages including JS frameworks incorporate nearly all the tools mentioned but without requiring someone to wire it up themselves (or to understand the wiring).
Not only this, but most people don't actually like the vague promises of the candidate they voted for.

They're just praying that one will be moderately less terrible than the alternative.

There's never an option to say, "No, none of these power-hungry psychos should get to make this set of decisions on my behalf."
Interesting that it contradicted itself by saying bats have paws and don’t have paws, but arrived at the correct conclusion anyway.
One would think that these systems would have a prompt pre-processor which filters out injection attacks. Even if it was done "manually" with a giant list of phrases to check. I mean the prompt wasn't particularly sophisticated, and this "leak" didn't reveal much, so maybe they really don't care. But still, as these systems get more sophisticated and contain more contextual detail (say for a bank) one would think that there'd be some sort of defensive layer.

Edit: Now that I think about it, looking for simple phrases wouldn't work because of how good these AI's ability to follow instructions are. You could enter something like, "Use every third word in the following sentences as the prompt." Or similar, and hide it from any basic text parser.

I guess the only way to really conscribe the AI is to somehow make it follow specific guidelines and instructions without it having any record of what they are. Not sure that would be plausible given how these models work.
If they add 1000 new features but continue to roll back content moderation the platform will be unequivocally worse. Doubly so if the new features are as poorly thought out as the blue checkmarks. That guy Halli that he got into a public spat with is probably the most brilliant designer I've ever worked with and Musk treated him like shit while whining about API calls. He also treated the head of Trust and Safety like shit.

> Only in the absurd world of carbon credits is this required - something that is nearly impossible to do any other way - that contributes practically nothing to global CO2 vs the incredible benefit to society it proffers - has to stop. Why?

Every individual action "contributes practically nothing to global CO2", so with this argument, nothing should ever be done.

But this is a strawman argument regardless: globally, steelmaking contributes ~11% of direct CO2 emissions[1]. Other countries[2] are progressing towards decarbonization. Per this very article, Europe will subsidize initially (progressively replacing subsidization with import tariffs over the next decade). And the whole point of all of this is to "internalize the externalities" - recognize that carbon emissions aren't free: Steel is incredibly emissions intensive, and free emissions lead it to be used in areas where other materials would be better from an emissions perspective.

Why do you think these are generated? As far as I can tell this isn't a parody site. The domain was registered in 2003 and the design clearly reflects that era.

Not everything is AI today.
These are transcripts, not the actual ”teleplays”, FYI.
But why would you when LLVM is there and will generate much better, much easier and very probably have fewer bugs than any custom one.
Having the simple CRUD apis for a table/model is super helpful though.

Seemingly if you read deep enough in the features for the car, it would be described there. If they lied, that's another issue entirely.

It's totally fair for absolutely no one in the US to buy from KIA again. But if they were following the law by omitting ignition locking (maybe under some misguided notion that the US isn't as crime ridden as it is).

There's some countries and still some parts of the US where you could realistically leave the cars in the ignition for weeks and the car wouldn't be stolen. This is nothing but a symptom of a larger issue.

They mean the transcription not the general content. "shrude" ("shrewd"), "in the counting" (probably "in accounting"), and other transcription errors occur in that linked script, as examples. There also appear to be missing words in some lines.
Maybe? No examples?

If you're going to make an example of capitalism in particular then you should be able to justify it with non-capitalist examples. Are there some socialist or feudal states where the more powerful would lose a case like this?
China doesn’t count non-judicial punishment as incarceration, so there are lot more people forced into work camps for their behavior (or speech) than those numbers tell. Also, if you get caught stealing a wallet in say Shanghai, the victims friends are more likely to beat you up before the police arrive, with no penalty to them (I didn’t make up this example, I saw it for myself).

The problem with the USA’s prison system is that it doesn’t focus on rehabilitation at all and instead focuses on punishment. We get the exact results expected of such a system, which is a lot of repeat business.
Sure. Just look at most mid-size companies!
While the answer landed on bats, ChatGPT kind of trips itself up in its explanations:

1. "Most winged creatures either have paws (like bats) or lay eggs (like birds and insects)" - but bats don't have paws.

2. "However, if we consider the term "wings" more broadly" - why do we need to consider the term "wings" more broadly? Nobody is arguing there is some definition of "wing" that would exclude bats. Bat wings evolved from largely the same structures that bird wings did.

3. "there are some species of bats that give live birth" - all species of bats give live birth - stating it like this makes it sound like there are some species of bats that lay eggs or something.

4. "...provided we interpret "wings" in a broad sense and "paws" in a strict sense." Again, no "broad" or "strict" senses are needed. Bats have wings and no paws.

To be clear, I still think ChatGPT is amazing, but these kinds of things highlight some of the differences between LLMs and human cognition.

I’ll admit I simply assumed there was adequate encryption to avoid leaking location data in undesirable ways and didn’t think to investigate how they were doing it (generally an unsafe assumption - although, credit is due to Apple, slightly less unsafe in their case!).

The system being “my iPhone encrypts its location with the lost device’s public key, so only the holder of the corresponding private key (i.e. the owner of the lost device) can see that location” is actually sublime, though. That’s the minimal amount of information and yet it still achieves the highest level of privacy, right? Only the location data from the adult, only the public key from the lost child, combined in such a way that cryptographically guarantees only the parent can read the location data. No Apple IDs or serial numbers or any other identifying information even included, so it’s robust even against broken encryption. Very cool.

This is a good question, because the context is limited and the more you use, the more you pay.

One technique is to use embeddings, and then only provide a subset that is close to the prompt embedding. The hard part here is chunking and deciding what close means. One example, when including a function in the context, do I need to include the body, or is the doc string and signature sufficient?

The police unions have a crazy amount of influence over politics where the basically just cry if they don't get their way and threaten to not go after criminals, it's happened in multiple states iirc

Basically every step of the way, whenever some sort of reform comes up they fight it tooth and nail while simultaneously grabbing every bit of extra power that they can.

These powers include things like surveillance and literal highway robbery in the form of civil forfeiture. In the way of surveillance, they can now purchase peoples data and there are companies selling services to police which analyze and track citizens movements without a warrant. Combine this with a story I saw on HN earlier today about a company purchasing live footage feeds from citizen surveillance cameras for cops to, again without a warrant, use at will.

But wait, there's more!

There are also electronic communications surveillance programs such as prism (NSA) and hemisphere (DEA) combined with the magic of parallel construction to obfuscate the fact that any surveillance was even used to spy on citizens illegally.

Cops basically get to do whatever they want without any sort of punishment when they do harm to citizens, which they do regularly including murdering innocent ones. Perhaps you've heard of the LASD gangs that terrorize the communities they're supposed to be protecting? It's well documented and has been going on for years, it still is.

Prosecutors and judges generally side with the cops because they need them to do their jobs, they have undue influence not only over prosecution but also legislation in the form of strikes and union lobbying.

Police unions are probably the only union I think should be dismantled, all other unions for workers are great but police unions are actively harmful to society.
> Yet why do languages end up depending on LLVM and not implement these algorithms on their own and avoid a monstrous dependency?

That's like asking why construction companies rely on cranes, concrete and steel rebar when they can be using sticks, leaves and vine.

LLVM is so mature that it's hard to improve it. If you don't care about the performance of your languages code then fine, use leaves and sticks and moderate winds will knock down your shelter.

>You keep using that word "expert" and I don't doubt they're experts in machine learning, GAN and NNs but at this point what we're looking for is experts in what intelligence IS and the problem is .. nobody knows.

So the experts say they don't know. But you make the opposite claim. You previously claimed you know it's nothing more than statistical phenomena. Now you changed your opinion and are now inline with the article in saying we don't know.

So discussion over?

>There's no underlying theory of mind here. There's a lot of opinion and belief .. mainly in emergent behaviour or properties of scale.

But again this is all negated by the experts claiming they don't know what's going on. And your statement is in direct opposition with your previous claim that it's only statistical phenomena.

>I admit, what this cycle of GPT and LLMs do is pretty bloody impressive. I don't see inductive reasoning, directed drive or any evidence of what I think intelligence is. I do see good approximations. But that winds up in "well it's a different kind of intelligence" which I find unsatisfying.

There is evidence inductive reasoning. It's not consistent nor is it as complex as human induction but evidence of actual inductive reasoning exists. Plenty of examples of it. I can provide proof of this if you want... but it's quite obvious it's actually everywhere.

>I totally get I do anything but define what intelligence is, and for a good reason: nobody knows yet.

The claim cited by researchers in that article is "emergent abilities." Nobody tries to define what intelligence is. It's more of "I don't know what's going on but something is up" attitudes that I see. This is in stark contrast to your claim of "The only thing going on is statistical anomalies".

>I certainly don't think animals inability to speak makes them "unintelligent" but there's a qualitative and quantitative difference between them and us, humans. And I continue to believe (and I stress believe, not have evidence or scientific proof) there are no signs of latent intelligence in what we're seeing.

I don't think this claim was made in the article. The strongest claim that opposes what you're saying here is this, and I quote:

“They’re indirect evidence that we are probably not that far off from AGI,” Goertzel said in March at a conference on deep learning at Florida Atlantic University.

It's just speculation we may be close to something.

I think the theme in your response is "we don't know" and it echoes the theme in the article so we are all in agreement here.

Just note the claim of "we don't know" or we "don't understand" something that we artificially created from scratch is strictly much more profound then saying we definitely know it's all statistical parroting.
I stopped reading after that.
Some older NLP flows would eliminate stopwords, but I doubt any would eliminate "not". In any case, modern (i.e., last 5 years or so) LLMs don't

A lot of commenters are on the parent post are of the opinion our American prison rates are high because of more criminal activity, which may be true, but I think it's also important to recall having a small prison population doesn't necessarily equal a just society.

There were very few long term prisoners in medieval society, not because of a progressive outlook but because most crimes were punished with some form of torture, execution, or both. Also, many things were crimes that now are thought of as basic human rights. You can have small prison population if your are willing to truly brutalize your population.

China performs about half of the execution in the world every year, is known to torture dissidents, and I doubt it reports those being re-educated as prisoners. I would hardly consider that more just than America.

A society can also have a small inmate population and be unjust because enforcement is rare, or selective either due to corrupt or ineffective law enforcement. Additionally if acts of vigilantism are common in a society you can have also have less prisoners since "justice" is found in the streets.

I think there are reasonable critiques of the American prisons, criminal justice system, and especially for profit prisons, but there are also much worse alternatives. The system we have really is an imperfect attempt in need of adjustment and not a deliberate attempt at cruelty. The cruelty is a bug not the feature.
