Thanks for mentioning others. The main thing I love about OP's library is the simple, clear naming. A lot of complexity has been solved for me.

Looking at random-js, the barrier to entry is higher. I've looked at randomness libraries and that's the feeling they gave me: That I would need to learn how randomness works, rather than just calling a function for what I want; a random int, a weighted random. Cmd+F "weighted" doesn't find anything on both of those projects' readmes.

There's a tradeoff for simplicity, but in many cases I'll take it. This is the iPhone of randomness and that's what I needed to feel comfortable using it rather than rolling my own.
Not sure what your work place back then was but we clearly had tons of emails sent in 2000 already. As to chat ICQ came out in 1996, as did AOL IM in 1997, Yahoo and MSN as well. They were very popular by 2000.
It was and still is the coolest device, holding it sideways and scrolling with your thumb, it was so light and perfectly sized, the battery lasted for DAYS. I really want another phone like it, but everything now is the same, except for the foldables, which intrigue me just because I want something different and new. It's too bad the bigger ones are so expensive.
It does, however, have an AC Cobra[1] that comes equipped with gatling guns in its headlights.

Surely tech workers at Amazon Seattle are getting FAANG salaries by definition?
Right: it seems like this basically comes down to them using nuclear weapons, or some other major escalation that will generate a coalition response. Otherwise: there really aren't retaliatory options open to them that I see. Every horrible thing you can imagine doing, they've already done or attempted to do, and then left a trail of Russian Armed Forces corpses and burning tanks as Ukraine pushed them back.
Astute observation. I imagine this effect will eventually consume any company. Or will it? Do we know of a way to stave it off?
It won't be a problem for CA, though. There's a strong current that goes right by the shore, it'll help to quickly mix the brine.
My reason to downvote will be: Around half the girls I've met in my life were molested by adults as children, and it wasn't by famous people or politicians. It was by neighbors and family members in the suburbs where they grew up. It's fine to call out hypocrisy in the ruling class that covers up for their own while claiming to be trying to address the problem, but at the end of the day the vast majority of the millions of daily cases of child abuse are taking place right nextdoor or even in the same houses as the people who make a lot of noise about corrupt politicians. I'd even go as far as to say that an obsession with famous child abuse cases is a good indicator of someone who's either committed or thought about committing that sort of crime.
The big Kahuna is in December with lot more people going to polls then. which means election campaigning will be in full swing in November maybe late October too. The currency ends September 30, so the 2000 will not be useful for them.

I am totally on the other side of this - I would much rather get my work interrupted to unblock a colleague than to pretend that anything I do is so meaningful that it's more important than working with other people. In any company larger than a few people, your own individual work doesn't matter so much - your time is better spent helping other people get their shit done, especially if you know enough to have people be asking you

Of course this doesn't get you promoted at FAANG or whatever but I don't really care much about that. It also doesn't account for annoying parasitic people who don't know how to communicate remotely or don't check documentation / internal KB before asking, but hopefully you hire better people than that :)
I was a little surprised that they actually released an Apple Silicon version for it just a few months ago (https://support.aspyr.com/hc/en-us/articles/12168615035405-H...) in spite of its age.
The big advantage of Posit16 over Float16 is way less overflow potential. Float16s have 1 less bit than Posit16, but they also max out at 65000 which can cause a lot of overflow/NaNs. BFloats have a really big range (up to 10^38), but they only have a 7 bit mantissa. Posit16 gives you higher accuracy than BFloat16 for the entire range of Float16, while being almost as resistant to overflow as BFloat16. Yes, you lose a lot of accuracy for the big posits, but in a NN context, often for the giant values all you care about is that it's large and infinite. The hardware is a little more expensive, but it has a lot fewer special cases and you can share a lot more operations with Int hardware (although none of the expensive stuff).
I'll give a very simplistic answer to your question and skirt some detail.
Essentially, Transformers can 'look at' everything within the context with perfect fidelity (only one 'hop' between tokens to 'get the info'), while RNNs struggle with this because the information gets 'muddied' with all of the tokens in between. Like telephone between you and one friend (transformer) vs you and a sea of people (RNN).

Hopefully this gets the point across without the mathematics and a precise description.
During the 2016 demonitization, so called 'Journalists' in mainstream channels shared news that new notes have a nano-GPS chip and satellite can detect black money even if it's several hundred feet under the ground. The BJP propaganda team then shared this type of videos to the public across their Whatsapp groups across the country. [1]

I did it for a living over a summer. Helper for a Syrian restorant in France.

My instruction :
- long filament of oignons, all the same size

- large amount of olive oil

- when it start browning, start moving them. Stop when they are caramélisés.

- dump

- smoke a cig.

- repeat
They can depoiste any amount. They can "exhange" 20k. there is the difference. if you have source to explain the money, I guess you can just go and deposit it.
All that exist at the moment! i.e.

- THead C906 in-order single-issue core in e.g. AllWinner D1 and Bouffalo BL808 SoCs

- THead C910 3-wide OoO core in THead TH1520 and Sophon SG2042 SoCs

LMUL=4 (64 bytes per loop) is optimal for all the above. It is unlikely to be bad on anything.

I look forward to the first shipping RVV 1.0 implementations, maybe sometime in 2024. The same code is binary compatible between RVV draft 0.7.1 (which the above implement) and the ratified RVV 1.0, and source compatible with the addition of ",ta,ma" to the `vsetvli` (sadly, a decision was made not to allow that to default in asm)

As can be seen at...

https://hoult.org/d1_memcpy.txt

... a test I ran on the Allwinner D1 two years ago. Compared to glibc memcpy() at the time, the vector version is 2-3 times faster for sizes up to 1k, then gradually slides back to equality at sizes in L2 cache and RAM where normal integer code can saturate the bus.

That's a core (C906) which today is available on for example the $6 Pine64 Ox64 board.

Bellingcat is obviously sponsored by the American intelligence establishment and I'm honestly surprised (and a little insulted) when I see anyone trying to pass it off as an independent, legitimate thing.

Software developers lose due to increased competition. Instead of competing with just silicon valley you are competing with the entire world.
Do you think there could be a kind of universality principle at work here, where once you make a good enough architecture then the details don't matter so much compared to the model size and training flops and dataset size? In other words, maybe it wasn't a coincidence that your architecture worked about as well as the transformer architecture?
Well, at least it was some hours on near-latest phones with specialized hardware and software (latest and Pixel phones are missing from the study for some reason). Looks much safer compared to Apple's FaceID which was unlocked under 120 seconds with no special hardware attached to the phone (reported by the same Security Lab Tencent):

Or you unionize. It’s federally protected activity. Only takes 30% to petition the NLRB to hold a vote. I know, the horror of suggesting such an idea on a hyper capitalism forum. Most people aren’t business owners or shareholders, they are workers. The startup lottery is a lottery: you likely will see nothing as an employee. You might not even see market rate as an employee at an established business. And there is ample evidence a unionized business can still be successful.

Workers deserve agency (I suppose this is the point we’re negotiating), and they have the means to acquire it and then defend it. Whether they do so is up to the suffering they’re willing to tolerate collectively.

> Software jobs are one of the few remaining ones where we still hold the means of production

Typical software jobs absolutely do not "hold the means of production".

The aforementioned "means of production" likely includes years of work from an entire sales team in order to land paying customers in the first place. What good are the "means of production" when no one is buying your product?

Cool, you built a useful piece of software... are you ready to pay a cool million to your sales people to actually get it out the door? No? Well then you don't own the means of production. You own a pipe dream.

How about paying for all of those cloud servers that your customers run on? When you write code does it also automatically pay your cloud server bills? Guess what, those servers are required to actually run the god-granted code that you put on this earth.
> Remark. It is important to acknowledge that previous research has highlighted the ability of neural
networks to tolerate noise and even act as a regularization method. However, our proposed analysis
differs in two ways. Firstly, it is the first comparison of its kind that focuses on pure 16-bit neural
networks. Secondly, our analysis offers a unique quantification approach that distinguishes it from
previous explanations related to regularization. Our approach examines floating-point errors and
formalizes the concept of tolerance, allowing for its quantification as a measure of comparison with
floating-point errors.

> Explanation of the Lemma.... in the worst case.... But as long as... the two classifiers M16 and M32 must have the same classification result on x.

So my rough understanding is that they're saying "Hey, it's not/not only because of regularization; it's because fp16 is really as good as fp32 for what we need it to do (but more efficient?"

I was sloppy, and I think we agree.

I meant that pain cannot currently be reduced to computation. I’m open to believing it’s just computation, but it’s not obvious that it is, unless you assume that everything the brain does is. But then you’re the one assuming.
That sounds lovely, but I think you're getting a bit ahead of yourself. They haven't actually won any concessions or really accomplished anything yet; they haven't even demonstrated a reasonably successful walkout yet (we'll see whether they can manage that on the day of). For what it's worth, though, I hope your optimism is justified.
This is what we do. So "how long" is a difficult thing to put a number on, since you're intentionally throttling it to avoid impacting the database's performance (or building up slave lag).
Any partitioning?
One of the biggest issue with incredibly large context sizes is the lack of training / dataset meant specifically to use such large context sizes.

And this apply to all models. So when a specific model now does badly even at 32k or 50k it’s hard to say if it’s an architecture design issue, or a dataset issue
I'm sorry, do you believe the Fed actually printed excess currency notes? If not, I don't understand why you think your analogy makes any sense in this case.
It's not required for arxiv authors to submit papers to journals. As far as I can tell "Language Models are Unsupervised Multitask Learners", (the GPT-2 paper) which has 9,786 citations, was never published in a journal.
Officially you can’t be fired for striking right? Guessing there’s a lot of ways a company can get around that though.

It's the best note mixing LLM I've seen. Someone just needs to train a sound diffusion model on the midi notes to orchestral mp3s. Give it a few weeks.

You may choose a old laptop that you're able to replace battery, ssd(avoid mount on mainboard)

my experience, I'm using asus UX31LA with linux mint

intel i5-4200u

4GB ram (enable zram to increase ram space, you may pick a 8GB+ model)

At UChicago where I attend, most of my big lecture style classes give the prof a round of applause at the end of each quarter (except for one very bad physics lecturer I had once).
Yep that's right! This project was definitely an exercise in balancing visual fidelity and inference speed. I have a couple of ideas to increase realism though that I'm excited to dig into and hopefully have live soon.

Thanks for checking out the stream!
It's redundancy, not waste, in the majority of cases. Look at what's happened to the Russian army to see what happens when there's no redundancy built-in to your logistics and supply chain, redundancy is essential to the capability of US military might.
Yes, it is no longer available from pushshift (presumably due to pressure from Reddit.) The historical data is now only available via torrent.
1. This was in response to "This seems like a push for digital payments."

2. Yes, they did raise the limit to 7 lakhs in a year after public backlash. Initially the 7 lakhs was not there.
If the number is a large enough percentage they couldn't do a lockout. While it may be an industry-wide supply side problem for employees you can't just fire a huge portion of the staff and hire new people and expect things to just keep on truckin', losing that much institutional knowledge would be suicide.
The problem is that Melatonin is not regulated. Some research has already been done and actual dosage levels vs advertised levels can be off by +/- 400%. Add to the fact that the recommended dosage level for adults is 1mg to 5mg this can be very bad. On top of this is simple search for melatonin on Amazon gives results for 20mg and 30mg tablets. And on top of that, a lack of understanding by most patients makes them take two tablets when one doesn’t work. So a 30mg advertised tablet that could easily be 60mg to 75mg gets doubled to to 120mg to 150mg. No wonder this is an issue. Most adults will do well with 1mg but try finding 1mg tablets??
It became a dumpster fire well over a decade ago and has never recovered since. Even the site administration is in on the act, lest we forget spez editing the database to modify users' comments with no indication.
Actual Buddhist monk here (Ajahn Subharo), in the Theravada Thai forest lineage. Khemarato Bhikkhu - who is much more junior a monk than me, and is not formally any sort of Ajahn (teacher) yet - and myself both have Computer Science degrees, which are rare things for Buddhist monks to have.

So take his authority to run a "university" with a huge grain of salt. He would get roundly mocked in subtle ways by senior Buddhist monks if he thinks he has the seniority to be the "dean" of a "university". It's only once you have 10 years seniority that one, as a Theravada monk, earns the title of "Elder" ("Thera", an ancient Pali word in the Pali Canon), or an "Ajahn" (a Thai word simply meaning teacher, roughly corresponding to that same 10 years seniority).

This is not a fair criticism. Its not like some of the smartest groups of people alive have not tried for over half a century. Nobody has the slightest real clue on a way out. What else to do, except to constantly try and break the model somehow?
Correct, not everyone is fortunate to get FAANG-type compensation. But the article in question is about Amazon workers (one of the As in FAANG).
Yeah this is a bit silly comparison. If you want to play a good song guessing game, try song pop party on Apple Arcade.
I'm always surprised to see this much desire to work from home all the time. The way I see it. Given a few years, every work from home job will be outsource to some country where the pay is less. Companies are all about cutting costs. If a job can be done at home then it can be done from anywhere in the world. Why not hire the least expensive workforce?
This isn’t true at all and paints a dangerously dystopian view of things. You could easily buy a home in Seattle or the neighboring area after 5 years of senior level employment at most publicly traded companies. It’s not going to be an amazing home and there certainly will be some sticker shock when comparing that price tag to most other cities, but it’s totally feasible. The idea that you need to have a “top position” is ludicrous
i would guess, go to their discord. also they put their github so you could fix a bug in their github.
I was sloppy. I meant than pain cannot currently be reduced to computation. I.e., we cannot currently write a computer program that feels pain.

We don’t even know how to test to see if a program can feel pain, so how can we be sure that it is possible at all?

I’m open to believing that it’s just computation, but I don’t think our current knowledge warrants your certainty.
A minivan can very comfortably seat 6 adults. In a busy area, higher fees for larger vehicles may discourage carpooling and increase traffic.
I think I personally keep running into these bad examples every time I use something with Python and I do use venv every time. Rarely something works out of the box. Even colabs I try somehow won't work after a while. There is always some sort of version mismatch, sometimes something like numpy, tensorflow and some other deps.
Sorry I didn't know about /s.
I don't judge one way or another. Subject hallucinating the material world, or object hallucinating a subjective experience. I love you all.

I'm sorry about your experiences with whatever moderators you have a beef with. My guess is you are talking about large subreddit(s). Large subreddits have their issues with transparency I agree but what are you trying to suggest? Reddit-appointed moderators? If so, you are in for a rude awakening.

I would instead spend effort in stopping them from charging third party apps for API access that are objectively better than the official apps and ensuring that they dont kill old.reddit.com (3) like they killed i.reddit.com

> Rising median household income is very relevant to the average person. Decline in the amount the average American spends on food, clothing, and debt is also very relevant. And I think increasing lifespans are quite relevant to the average person as well.

There's been a 20x increase in diabetes over the past 70 years. Suicide rates are the highest since WWII, and on par with Great Depression rates. Let's not mention climate change and inequality because that's cliche.

These are things that we do measure. What about the percentage of one's time spent in a car? Spent sitting down? Spent in anxiety? Every thing you point out is a justification for an overscaled system IMO.

> I waited tables in a country club, worked in a cafe for a few years, and I worked at a terrible rental car company for awhile. I once saw my assistant manager throw someone through a plate glass window while shouting a slur I wouldn't type.

Then you should know that if you worked those jobs forever, you'd feel pretty shitty. Both you and the beggar could be staring at the same logos all day, seeing the same people, even be living on the same street, all while worrying that you might be next. Like I said - perhaps we can practice reading this time - it's not worse, it's just better by a much smaller amount than the typical SV techbro probably imagines.
How is it rogue? In order to find new food sources some bees have to search for them, rather than use existing knowledge. How they choose whether to scout or forage existing is of some interest of course, but this is interest is outside of suggested human behaviour models.
I bought a million dollar home in Seattle after less than 5 years of employment out of college at a publicly traded non-FAANG company in the area. It’s doable, you just need to compromise on location or luxury
Every theory has a domain of applicability, determined by tests within that domain. I don't think its reasonable to assume that the domain of applicability of any our theories extends to various infinities.
