The idea that making a mistake but otherwise fulfilling most of the task is worse than failing to perform any part of it.

Especially in the context of "evaluating the performance of something".

Let's expand this a little to make it even more evident: if the task was "make a paragraph of 100 words using only 5 letter words" and an AI couldn't produce anything at all, whereas another came up with a paragraph of 100 words, except a couple of them had 6 or 4 letters, it would make absolutely no sense to rate the first as "better" than the second in performing the task.

As for understanding the task, the latter exhibits an understanding of it (since it produced a paragraph, and most of the words it used filled the criteria, which wouldn't happen if it chose them randomly), it just made a couple of mistakes (the kind of humans could easily make too in such a task). For the former we can't even be sure if it even understood the task at all.

We don't rate humans that way on performing tasks either (if they got it less than perfect it's worse than not doing it at all). Even math tests at the university level consider the approach and any partial results in the right direction, don't just mark it 0 if there's an error, nor give a higher mark to students who didn't produce anything.

nice! I don't limit the search space in the system prompt to GPT, though each daily puzzle is using popular movies. I think for the top ~100 movies it'll probably do a fine job.

If this game goes on for a full year though, I imagine it's going to really struggle unless the movie is about something really unique.
I remember the original Macintosh launch, and just prior to that the failure of Lisa, both were very expensive for their time. I’m also skeptical but Apple has managed to pull it off even if like you point out it might not be an instant success, the main question will be can they take an idea that everyone has been excited about for a while but couldn’t get quite right and hit a home run. Also excited to see what they come up with.

The main drawback of Python is that it ruins you for other languages.

Python is a scripting language, it's great for scripts and one-offs, etc. But once you get above, say, 100K LoC it starts to get out of its sweet spot and into more direct competition with languages like, e.g. OCaml.

I can't comprehend this comment. Kunths commentary was glowing praise for the AI's thinking ability (and none of the "it's not AI" BS that is so popular), plus a statement that he believes accuracy is more important than raw power, so he wants "you" to work on that.
Knuth commented on GPT 4 at the start, and complimented its power and correctness at the end.

This can contribute to being psychologically hard to leave, but doesn't explain why people get into these professions.

I agree money is only one form of compensation. Some jobs focus on status or honor. But I don't see that in the areas you mentioned.

- EMT is almost always a stepping stone job for young people

ChatGPT: You didn't say I couldn't use many interpretations on the same phrase, human. ;)

Jokes apart, I think it is all about the correct prompt.
How about judging the content no matter which tools the students are using? If ChatGPT output cannot be distinguished from a student's output, then the respective profession / line of study is soon going to be obsolete anyway. If there is a difference (there should be one!), then the LLM is used as a tool, which should be allowed for most purposes. Universities don't disallow style and grammar correction software like Grammarly either.

What I can see in the humanities at least is that evaluation will soon get away from subjective and superficial criteria of form and focus on the quality of the content again. (That's me being optimistic. The other alternative is that AI will soon evaluate the output of other AIs.)

It’s entirely up to the entity quoting it.

That could be me, for instance, putting a bid into the market because I read a hot tip on HN.

Or you may prefer to imagine an automated market-making model that moves its price for Ford because it just saw a big sell-off in GM.

> Jobs pay as much as it costs to replace you

Since there is a teacher shortage (i.e. people are not being replaced), this would appear to not be the case.
You're right, I should've moved that up a bit. Shields.io definitely has its merits, they've got a huge collection of supported badges. Badgen.net was created because shields.io was significantly slowing down over time, and solved that by serving SVG over the edge, and it's what I've been using for the past few years. But badgen has lots of broken badges nowadays, and it doesn't seem to be properly maintained. So I decided to roll my own, using a Rust library and Cloudflare workers. In the end, there are still good reasons to use shields.io or badgen.net, depending on the specific use-case. I've just become frustrated with broken badges, especially since we're using them on our company website, and it really doesn't make a good impression to have broken images everywhere
Don't disagree that mining has caused property and rental prices to grow. Other factors in Australia are mandatory superannuation, with large funds buying up real estate, and also generous tax cuts for property investment.

This doesn't explain why Australia hasn't significantly invested in education in the last few decades.

true definition of db first being something that
can execute SQL or SQL like statements

Pedantic note: the term "database" existed long before the relational model or SQL existed. Many of the dominant databases of the 80s and 90s (dBase, etc) would not fit your invented definition.

Additionally, a lot of "toy" databases like Access can execute SQL statements, so the ability to execute SQL statements isn't necessarily a great way to tell what's a "real" database.

In practical terms, I do agree with you -- if somebody in 2023 is referring to "the database" in their app they had darn well better be talking about something robust and ACID-compliant like Postgres or whatever.
> To me, spinning up multiple copies of the database is cheating.

What if the database was designed to be run that way?

> You're comparing a box of Apples to a single apple.

Precisely. Dragonfly is a box of apples. Redis is a single apple that can be put in a box with other apples. If you run a "benchmark" comparing your box of apples against a sole apple, you're being either stupid or dishonest.

To me it looks like we've reached the inflection point. In the past businesses worked to lower costs, so they could reduce the price of their product and sell to more people. Looking at cars, houses, iPhones, nvidia GPUs, etc. everything is getting more expensive. This is likely because businesses must have 10-20% growth every year for infinity (because obviously there are infinite resources and infinite people with infinite money so companies can have infinite growth). However, eventually you'll run out of more people to sell to...so the only way to achieve continued growth for the shareholders is to increase prices.

The problem is that there is now a huge wealth gap. The majority are getting squeezed to death between inflation and insane housing market, childcare, lack of salary increases. So the only way now for these "luxury" companies selling iPhones and cars to achieve their infinite growth for their shareholders is to raise prices to increase margins, targeting the ultra rich faang employees.

We've had iphones in the past, but I wouldn't be surprised if in the near future iPhones become a luxury item that only the rich have.
Yep, since housing has became too expensive almost everywhere for almost everyone. Instead of focusing on one specific profession, we should focus on policy, where we actually built more houses (by allowing more to be built and at higher density), make houses houses, not hotels (so ban stuff like airbnb) and make housing-as-an-investment impossible (by eg limiting the amount of houses someone can own in areas with high demand).

But a few rich people would lose some money if we did that, so no, we'll focus on teachers in australia only.
Moral meaningfulness has zero to do with economic value.

Literally everyone alive is capable of teaching at some level. And the education requirement to teach higher levels is not as complicated or long as many other professions.

So lots and lots of qualified or easily qualifiable candidates for a position equates to a lower economic value for that position.

Any other outcome would be both economically and morally perverse.
I don't think there is a need to have someone's reputation score to use their software.

There are plenty of pieces of open source software running on operating systems that were contributed by people who are effectively anonymous.

The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters

Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right* now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.

Those marks are still used in many places to deny would-be renters a place as they are deemed 'insecure' by the landlords. At that point, it is effectively "unaffordable" as the supply is artificially staggered and the minimum to enter is higher than the market would dictate otherwise. Most could make it work and still have room to spare. This includes countries with safety nets capable of bailing out individuals who mess up.

Might not be the case in Australia, but it certainly exists.
I thought they meant it in the context of boilerplate, which is a little different than what’s described in the wiki link. But I think we’re probably just talking about subtle shades and degrees of of the sense. I had thought the original comment was referencing a non-English term that had a literal translation to English as “wooden” but with a subtle difference in meaning than it’s usage in English.

I may have been overthinking things— I do that (and I don’t count it as an inherently positive trait) but the general topic is still interesting and still highly recommend the book I referenced.

Nothing in security catches "all" things. A review process with a human may be good but it's far from turning humans into infallible detectors. The reputation gained by the App Store is by catching many such apps before they are published, not every single one.

Just two posts above this one, you claimed that downloading a different ocas binary would probably work. So ocicl does not only work on Linux, right?
I do. It works well.
The PS4 was hacked intermittently, which is what I meant by uphill struggle. The exploits are the "bottom up" variety starting in usermode and escalating up to patching the kernel, which can be fixed by firmware updates, so if you're not sitting on an old firmware you're out of luck. They've also never managed to escalate to the root of trust, which means you can't exploit vulnerable firmware X and then update to a pre-rooted non-vulnerable firmware Y like you could on the PS3 - you're stuck on firmware X and will eventually get locked out of newer game releases that need Y or newer.

Without the bootloader exploit the Switch would have been a similar story - firmwares up to 4.10 were hacked in much the same way the PS4 was hacked, but that has very limited usefulness. I don't think you could have decrypted Tears of the Kingdom using such an old firmware.
Yes, they are. I edited my comment to reflect as much. Thanks!

I wouldn't call Quicklisp slick but I would call it dangerous. HTTPS is irrelevant when it fetches projects, it stores in its own central repo, over HTTP and plain GIT.

That model of a middleman NOT the original package author being responsible for distribution is highly problematic. A package manager today needs to maintain and make it simple to verify end-to-end provenance.

I've come to much the same conclusion with getting it to produce prose. Having been paid to write for the last ~25 years I would be embarrassed to copy/paste directly from chatGPT - it manages to be both bland and verbose consistently.

But seeing how much trouble non-writers have in producing anything longer than a text message, I can see that it would have real value for them.

It's worth remembering how hard it is to make a start when you have no idea what you're doing, and the worst part of the learning process is when you know something is wrong but you don't know how to fix it.

ChatGPT seems to excel in a few narrow fields, but I think it can take a lot of people from mediocre/non-functional to somewhat acceptable and that's a pretty big leap.
One of Hofstadter's books has a story about that.

Wrist pain posed me to research other keyboards than the Apple Magic Keyboard and Microsoft sculpt. Within a brief amount of time I tried a Kinesis Freestyle Edge RGB, Kyria, and Ferris Sweep. I found the Kyria and Sweep pretty awkward (for different reasons) and caused other pains. Then I got a Kinesis Advantage2 and that really changed things for me, my hand/wrist health improved a lot. I did replace the controller with a KinT to get QMK though.

I am also using a Model 100, since it also allows me to experiment with different switches. But the Advantage2 is my main work keyboard.

I also have an Advantage360, but I don't use it much, because I don't like the switches. Review:

>This is one of those cases where, regrettably, decentralization and open sourceness can play out not very well, to say the least.

I think this is one of the cases where the problems of decentralisations are exacerbated by the problems of centralisation.

It's hard enough to vet a github repository, but at least it can be done.

After funneling the code through an intransparent, centralised review process that claims to ensure "the highest standards for privacy, security and content" you can no longer verify anything.
