When I post in that same link I get a page of text about Edgar Allen Poe.

"Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer, poet, editor, and literary critic who is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States, and of American literature. He was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story, and is considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre, as well as a significant contributor to the emerging genre of science fiction.

Poe was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on January 19, 1809. His parents, David Poe Jr. and Elizabeth Arnold Poe, were both actors. David Poe died when Edgar was only three years old, and Elizabeth died two years later. Poe was then taken in by John and Frances Allan, a wealthy tobacco merchant and his wife, who lived in Richmond, Virginia. Poe was never formally adopted, but he was raised by the Allans as their son.

Poe attended the University of Virginia for one year, but he was expelled for gambling debts. He then joined the U.S. Army under an assumed name, but he was discharged after only two years. In 1835, Poe published his first book of poems, Tamerlane and Other Poems. The book was not a success, but it did attract the attention of some literary critics.

In 1836, Poe married his 13-year-old cousin, Virginia Clemm. The couple had one child together, a daughter named Virginia. Poe's wife died of tuberculosis in 1847, and her death had a profound impact on him. He became increasingly depressed and addicted to alcohol.

Poe died on October 7, 1849, at the age of 40. The cause of his death is unknown, but it is believed that he may have died of alcohol poisoning or a brain tumor.

Poe's work has had a lasting influence on American literature and culture. His stories have been adapted into numerous films and television shows, and his poems are still widely read and studied. Poe is considered one of the most important figures in the development of American literature, and his work continues to inspire and entertain readers around the world.

Here are some of Edgar Allan Poe's most famous works:

"The Raven" (1845)
"The Tell-Tale Heart" (1843)
"The Fall of the House of Usher" (1839)
"The Murders in the Rue Morgue" (1841)
"The Pit and the Pendulum" (1842)
"The Masque of the Red Death" (1842)
"The Cask of Amontillado" (1846)
"Annabel Lee" (1849)
"Lenore" (1843)
"Ulalume" (1847)
Poe's work has been praised for its dark and macabre themes, its use of suspense and horror, and its vivid imagery. He is considered one of the most important figures in the development of American literature, and his work continues to inspire and entertain readers around the world."
While I agree with some of what you say, with respect, that latter part I think you've fallen into a flawed association trap through the use of corrupted language.

Anyone that's educated in this area knows just because someone says something is true, it doesn't make it so, and discussing that wasn't even part of the comment so you are getting into the weeds.

For your own edifice, can you (for yourself) tell what are the differences between socialism, communism, fascism and fabianism; and which ones are mutually exclusive? A google search surface view won't be much help with answering that; best resource is historical texts and essays.

To me, you seem to have mixed objectives or have been seriously misled. You claim its new, but this in fact is a very old 'baddie' wrapped up in new clothing.

This is not the unchallenged, consensus position, though. A competing position within cognitive science is that intelligence requires embodiment, perception, metacognition, curiosity, etc., and that these factors that allow for the emergence of intelligence are indispensable, more or less.

See, e.g., https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/embodied-cognition/

I won't claim to know which is correct, or even if some other alternative is correct; however, this is not settled at all.

I do think it will some day be possible to simulate all of the embodied cognition above, which may truly render this discussion moot, but that LLMs are not doing that at all.
"Condemning the actions of a foreign government" and "condemning similar actions by your own government" seem a little more related and on-topic than "social media and car crashes".

And in my own personal opinion, that's especially true if those questionable actions by your own government overshadow any other similar effort both in scope, size and funding by several orders of magnitude when compared to the rest of the world.

This obsession with shills is unhealthy. I'm glad there's a rule against it.

I'm not Chinese either, and I find it quite sad that you have to state that in here sometimes just to be taken seriously, or else be called a shill.

I hadn’t heard of this before either. A quick search (miraculously, Google still sometimes works for me) indicates two separate phenomena: one is that HP did intend to insert printed ads when you use some of their automated print options (https://www.computerworld.com/article/2519039/hp-partners-wi...), and the other is that some HP printers are “web-enabled” in the sense that emails to a certain printer email address will automatically be printed, and the default access settings allow spam ads which then get automatically printed (https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mobile-Printing-Cloud-Printing...)
How does this follow exactly? It sounds like a non sequitur.
And Berkshire Hathaway has an outsize position in the largest of them, HP.

What else does BRK own, and thus influence via board and activist shareholder position that is in your home.

This is the point. You can have a million “options” but if they all only benefit a handful of owners then no matter how you “vote” with your dollars it still makes the same people the same money.

Again, you have to go to extremes to find a printer that is manufactured by a union or employee owned cooperative if there even are any.
> Given the hibernation Apple was in at the time,

System 7 and Mac OS 8 were pretty good from a UI perspective, but no memory protection and no preemptive multi tasking was not great. For a long time "MacOS 9" was synonymous with classic Mac, but I always remember 8 being the last tolerable one, by the time 9 came around the foundations were more clearly inadequate, it was like the WinME of Mac OS, tiding over until OS X.

Yes. I remember some commentary on the first few versions of OS X was that they were resource hogs.
Hard disagree. This is how Chrome won the browser wars - people ask their nerdy cousin which browser to use.

The market of HN is small, but the market power is large. Also, I guarantee you people here make large corporate purchases for things like printers, networking equipment - stuff HP cares about.
That's a great!!! idea. I get very frustrated reading HN comments that have obviously never read the article beyond the title.
I think this is a silly framing, to be honest. Of course they're allowed to earn money, but they surely aren't entitled to that money.

I live in the west so I won't comment on charging networks. However, I currently drive a PHEV, so leaving some thoughts more generally about things I learned when I started:

- EVs are most energy efficient at slower speeds (varies by temperature, but in my experience, in the range of 30-45 mph) whereas ICEs are most efficient at highway speeds (65 mph). The energy consumption at different speeds varies enough that in-car range estimates can be off by a lot.

- Some PHEVs can recharge the EV battery from the gas engine; others only can recharge the EV battery from being plugged in. Check before buying.

- Using heating / A/C will reduce EV range noticeably. This is much more noticeable than ICE (where heating will reuse heat from the engine, and A/C is powered by the alternator).

- The PHEVs I've seen don't support DC Fast Charging at all. You can only use L2 chargers or the provided (slower 110V) AC adapter.

- For an EV, DC Fast Charging plugs tend to lock for "safety". A malfunctioning charger can leave you stranded.

- Nobody seems to be selling new PHEV Sedans except Toyota (who released a new Prius Prime this year; not eligible for tax credit under new rules and its charger only goes 16A which is slow even for L2 but would be fine for overnight-charge-at-home-and-commute-to-work use). Honda and Hyundai discontinued PHEVs in 2021, 2022 respectively to focus on just selling EVs and ICEs.

- The tax credit rules changed for cars put into service after April 18th, 2023. Cars must "meet critical mineral and battery component requirements". In particular, certain Teslas are eligible again, only certain PHEVs (currently no sedans) meet the new requirements. [0][1]

Yeah, that's a good call on ChatGPT browsing mode - it's likely to be exhibiting the absolute best defenses OpenAI have managed to out together to far.

My hunch is that it's still exploitable, but if not it would be very interesting to hear how they have protected it.
The way GPT-4 works is by having built a world model of the generative processes that produced the data it was trained on. The more data you train it on (and the larger and therefore more capable he model is), the better it performs - i.e the more complete and consistent this world model has evidentially become. I'm not sure where you are seeing daylight between this and your own definition of intelligence.

FWIW GPT-4, being a neural net, is more analog than not. It's driven by floating point values not 1's and 0's. The values are imperfectly calculated (limited accuracy) as computer math always is. There is also a large element of pure randomness to the output of any of these LLMs. They don't get to control exactly what words they generate ... the model generates probabilities over 10's of thousands of possible output words, and a random number generator is used to select one of the higher rated words to output. This semi-random word is then fed back into the model, for it to "generate" the next word ... it is continuously having to adapt to this randomness forced upon it.

Can't do it intentionally, but evolution can do it unintentionally.

Nature solved this problem of radical open-ended exploration through evolution. It takes a lot of time but in a single run evolution created all species and life on earth. Evolutionary methods also created AlphaGo, AlphaTensor and AlphaFold - three AIs that surpass all humans put together in specific fields.

Basically learning from massive search and problem solving outcomes - that's how you solve hard problems. And if you think about it, that's how science works too - so many papers, many contradicting each other or trying completely different approaches adds up to evolution in the space of scientific ideas. Any one human alone can't do it, but all of us over a long enough time can do so much more, diversity and open-endedness are key.

> But my biggest gripe is how Rails lacks a space for business logic.

You can literally create a directory called app/my_actual_app and put all your business logic in there, Rails will even autoload it for you.

IMO it’s the sudden change from the “we’ll hold your hand every step of the way and offer tools and workflows for everything” web part (controllers, routing, ORM) to the “go and build your goddamn app” dealing with business logic. So many (especially new) devs try to stay in the cozy zone of having a nice name for everything at all costs, so they try to cram everything into “services” and “decorators” and “interactors” (yuck) and they’ll build business logic out of callbacks on ActiveRecord models and overload the poor things with dozens of “concerns” instead of, you know, going and building a goddamn Ruby app.

Good read. I would love if they'd taken the next step and told us how the extra traffic and SEO links had helped the business. I mean, that's the ultimate goal, and Hacker News doesn't pay the bills: https://www.reifyworks.com/writing/2017-03-13-hacker-news-do...

The tl;dr of the article is: provide value to the HN audience by highlighting articles of interest, possibly adding some extra commentary, and you'll get karma points. No gaming, no telling folks "vote for my post".

Kinda seems like the system is working!

From my perspective, I do post self-promotional links, but keep them to 5-10% of my posts (don't really keep track, that's more of a 'look at the last 30 posts and see if I have 2-3 self-posts'). Keep the self-promotional stuff quality, and you have to share other posts too. (I got a warning when I posted less than high-quality links and took it to heart. The mods are definitely watching.)

In fact, one of my joys is finding an interesting article from someone else and having it 'hit' on HN. It's such a gift to all the writers out there who are screaming into the void.

It doesn't always lead to something, but it sure is fun to have folks reach out and thank me for the HN spike. Plus the HN crowd gets exposed to the quality ideas.

As I said, the system is working.

> It is definitely not an intended feature for the end user to be able to trick the model into believing it said something it didn't say. It also doesn't work with ChatGPT or Bing Chat, as far as I can tell. I was talking about the user, not about the developer.

Those aren't models, they are applications built on top of models.

> That can be done with special tokens also. The difference is that the user can't enter those tokens themselves.

Sure. But there are no open models that do that, and no indication of whether the various closed models do it either.
