> Just maybe the EU regulators are technologically illiterate?

Of course they are because

1) all regulators are technologically illiterate, these are not exceptions

2) regulations of this kind are fundamentally about people not microchips. They talk about results to people, not coding constructs or network topologies. If it's technically possible to do it, but not technically possible to do it legally, then maybe it's a bad thing and don't do it at all? If there's a new technology, is it exempt from current standards? Would you say, "hey, new weapon invented, it's legal to murder people with it!" ?

NB: I'm fairly certain that Instant messaging can be done legally; what maybe can't and shouldn't be done legally, is the FB business model of monetising user data over that. IDK why someone would defend it so strongly.
It's a legacy app
Same here. Most profs had their own condensed script that they just handed out to us. And if a topic was more complex it had a reference to well-known books that we could use if we were interested.

Or if we were really required to buy a book, it usually was like a really good 30$ book that we could use as reference for the whole degree.
Yeah, I agree, and I didn't really mean for my reply to be a rebuttal to your point at all. :)
So my house constantly smells like caramelized onions? Win for me!
Heat is not the problem. I don't think you understand what browning onions well means. Which is understandable, because getting them "brown" in a few minutes is pretty easy, and that's the way it's explained in most recipes.

Browning usually means at least partial (noticeable in taste) caramelizing. That just won't happen in five minutes.

edit: sibling comment points out it's per 12 hour period, not per day

edit: as for the cap of 50 - it seems that is the number of posts shown on a first page of r/all (using old reddit), so it seems that means that all 50 slots "should" be filled with posts that have been removed
The most popular pots and pans for cooking do actually have a brand associated with them, even if its as big as Teflon. Not being able to name any, with a good or bad opinion, is comparable to not having a good or bad opinion about a novel. An old medium where its possible they have a valid new opinion, but usually a good indicator of the level of their opinion.
How to estimate things. That is the best thing in Math I have learnt. It is known as Street Fighting math or Fermi estimation and many other names. One book that is close to my heart is:

Have you ever used a slow cooker? You seemed obsessed with naming brands and call it a specialized tools makes me think you have never used them.

It’s just the simplest tool which actually shines best to be used for everyday general cooking. You know when you don’t have the time to do fancy cooking and just need a tasty home made meal with minimal effort.

Yeah, you could probably get better caramelized onions if you know how to cook them, if you have time to prepare them, and if you give them your full attention, but I would bet for the regular person cooking for himself, they are likely to get better results with 1/10 of effort just doing what OP mentioned, with ANY slow cooker.
Compared to e.g. religious text translation, I don't know how much subjective analysis there is for UDHR translations. It's pretty cut and dry: e.g. "Equal Protection of Equal Rights" is pretty clear.

"About the Universal Declaration of Human Rights Translation Project"
https://www.ohchr.org/en/human-rights/universal-declaration/... :

> At present, there are 555 different translations available in HTML and/or PDF format.

E.g. Buddhist scriptures are also multiply translated; probably with more coverage in East Asian languages.

Thomas Jefferson, who wrote the US Declaration of Independence, had read into Transcendental Buddhism and FWIU is thus significantly responsible for the religious (and nonreligious) freedom We appreciate in the United States today.

"Sometimes people do good work and don't win major awards" is hardly a rebuttal to the notion that meritocracy exists, because it's not some binary state. To say there's no such thing as merit, you have to say that recognition of merit is on average directionally wrong.

Given the huge technological advances of even just the past few decades, that's a pretty hard sell.
Many DB systems have some sort of HLL function to provide a similar approximation (although I think you’re overestimating the costs that MVCC impose on large datasets).

Caramelize onions take between 45 and 60 minutes. First result on Google https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_caramelize_onio...
I have the same experience with Marley Spoon. I always make sure I prepare everything in advance but the actual recipe wants you to do some of the cutting and dicing while stuff is already cooking and they often have impossible timing.

For example, they will have you fry the meat for 2-3 minutes, clean and chop a boatload of vegetables and add them after those 2-3 minutes pass. Sometimes they even do this during a step that requires constant attention, like browning minced meat.

I have no idea how they test these recipes. Maybe they are possible if you’re a professional chef in a fully equipped kitchen with plenty of space but they aren’t in my tiny kitchen where I have to spend half a minute digging the colander out from the back of the cupboard.

They also assume I have an infinite amount of cutting boards and knifes. For example, in step 1 they expect me to cut a chicken breast into bite size pieces, and then in step 2 or 3 I have to cut veggies for a salad. I can’t re-use the cutting board and knife I used for raw chicken for salad without giving it a thorough washing. So I cut everything in advance and do the chicken last.

I don't see how your point negates my answer to your question. For the vast majority of topics that one would take to ChatGPT, two year old information is fine. You should already know if you need more recent information from another source.

For example, if I want to know how green onions and yellow onions differ in terms of culinary applications and why, nothing that has been discovered in the past two years is going to change that; ChatGPT is fine. But if I want some information on COVID-19, then of course ChatGPT probably won't give the best possible responses. Like any tool, ChatGPT has its uses and knowing its applications and limitations is important.
Okay after reading more about VanillaOS I can see my concerns aren't relevant. Thanks for pointing it out... Wish I could delete the comment now
As a practitioner specializing in extremely fast-training neural networks, seeing a paper in 2023 considering fp32 as a gold standard over pure non-mixed fp16/bp16 is a bit shocking to me and feels dated/distracting from the discussion. They make good points but unless I am hopelessly misinformed, it's been pretty well established at this point in a number of circles that fp32 is overkill for the majority of uses for many modern-day practitioners. Loads of networks train directly in bfloat16 as the standard -- a lot of the modern LLMs among them. Mixed precision is very much no longer needed, not even with fp16 if you're willing to tolerate some range hacks. If you don't want the range hacks, just use bfloat16 directly. The complexity is not worth it, adds not much at all, and the dynamic loss scaler a lot of people use is just begging for more issues.

Both of the main repos that I've published in terms of speed benchmarks train directly in pure fp16 and bf16 respectively without any fp32 frippery, if you want to see an example of both paradigms successfully feel free to take a look (I'll note that bf16 is simpler on the whole for a few reasons, generally seamless): https://github.com/tysam-code/hlb-CIFAR10 [for fp16] and https://github.com/tysam-code/hlb-gpt [for bf16]

Personally from my experience, I think fp16/bf16 is honestly a bit too expressive for what we need, fp8 seems to do just fine and I think will be quite alright with some accommodations, just as with pure fp16. The what and the how of that is a story for a different day (and at this point, the max pooling operation is basically one of the slowest now).

You'll have to excuse my frustration a bit, it just is a bit jarring to see a streetsign from way in the past fly forward in the wind to hit you in the face before tumbling on its merry way. And additionally in the comment section the general discussion doesn't seem to talk about what seems to be a pretty clearly-established consensus in certain research circles. It's not really too much of a debate anymore, it works and we're off to bigger and better problems that I think we should talk about. I guess in one sense it does justify the paper's utility, but also a bit frustrating because it normalizes the conversation as a few notches back from where I personally feel that it actually is at the moment.

We've got to move out of the past, this fp32 business to me personally is like writing a Relu-activated VGG network in Keras on Tensorflow. Phew.

And while we're at it, if I shall throw my frumpy-grumpy hat right back into the ring, this is an information-theoretic problem! Not enough discussion of Shannon and co. Let's please fix that too. See my other rants for x-references to that, should you be so-inclined to punish yourself in that manner.

I thought I had commented on that thread but ... apparently not.

Anyway. I built my own hand-rolled dither filter for my canvas library - see the CodePen demo to see it attempt to dither a live video stream (warning: site will ask for permission to use your device's camera before displaying the canvas) - https://codepen.io/kaliedarik/pen/OJOaOZz

The problem I have with the filter is that it's not consistent across video frames (the dither jiggles around, even when nothing is moving between frames). It's really annoying and I don't know how to solve it. Does anyone know of any research/solutions for this sort of thing?

It is a bit weird but not moreso than, say, the word "butterfly". People agreed on one convention and one phrasing and stuck with it and it would be confusing to have wildly different time^pro and time^home scales. Just like pasta tells you the time starting with boiling water, so "5 minute pasta" does not mean "5 minutes from entering the kitchen".
I have the exact same problem/frustration and yet my wife consistently cooks the entire meal near or at the estimated cook time. Clearly I'm not as efficient as I think I am!
I agree that 2000 was a cleaner overall design. Adding realism for the sake of it is a dead end.

That said, there are a lot of games where the details of the simulation compound on themselves in interesting ways (Dwarf Fortress, Dominions, DC:Barbarossa, Shadow Empire, Paradox games). I enjoy those sorts of games, more minimalism and abstraction isn't always more fun.

Absolutely ridiculous, this signal is coming into your private property, it should never be illegal to receive it. So they are criminalizing monitoring the voltage on a piece of wire (an antenna) in your own property, that is what an SDR does.

These signals are being sent into your property, whether you want it or not. I think you have a natural right to receive it. It doesn't matter if the government says it's illegal, or attempts to enforce it. Just as we can hear anything nearby with our ears, nobody tells us we can't overhear conversations in a restaurant, trying to do so would clearly be absurd. My opinion here is from natural law.

As an early adopter doing 1200 searches a month, this is a good change. I really disliked having to use Brave Search a bit more towards the end of the month to stay within my quota.

As for the AI, I really don't care. I am cautious for now, I just hope the work on actual search doesn't get left by the wayside to chase the latest GPT trend.

Preferring AI-filtered results over a what is basically a full-text search over a massive index is why Google Search has become so useless. Sorry, machine, I know better.

I guess Kagi has to choose whether they want to court the power users like me, or the grandmas that Google is focusing on and want a more natural query interface. The reason why I'm paying for Kagi is because it seems to respect my queries, and does not try to interpret, rewrite them or do anything more than I have asked.

Even better is a reverse sear in stove on an elevated rack on a baking sheet at 230 degrees for 30 minutes, then you finish the steak off on a hot oiled (avocado or maybe peanut oil) skillet for 1 minute on each side.
> I can't imagine cutting and pasting my way through that world, nor would I ever want to.

Personally, I don't do that but I do work with a few people who don't really see a problem with that workflow. I agree with you that it is ultimately flawed since you aren't really learning anything except how to put things together. But we both know what happens when you reach the limit of this workflow, as evidenced by no/low-code tools.

I much prefer to write my own business logic and interface with tools that let me express requirements succinctly and cover the most common pitfalls. If/when those tools are no longer good enough, I have an opportunity to write something tailor made to the problem space that meets the current performance or design needs.

Looks lovely, and the animations are beautiful.

If you’re looking for feature requests… long shot I know…. I’ve always wanted an HN app that has better offline support. I do most of my HN reading on the London Underground where there’s little phone signal and only wifi at stations.

The sort of things I’d love to see are: archiving the top stories and comments overnight so that no internet is required to view, loading both comments and stories at the same time, and not unloading one (requiring a re-request) when switching between them, or anything else that minimises the amount of networking required.

Otherwise, maybe more actionable feedback, the two taps to get into a story/comments feels unnecessary. As much as the animation is stunning, it feels like it’s slower to use than necessary.

Agreed. A lot of simulation/strategy games seem to increase their fidelity over time, at the cost of fun. I’ve bought every Football Manager game for almost 30 years but these days it feels too much like an actual job. I’m intrigued what the best alternative is - I personally enjoy Paradox games, which generally expand with numerous DLCs so you can opt in to additional complexity on an incremental basis.

I agree, theft is, devoid of any context, immoral.

However, I consider the privatisation of publically funded research to be (currently) legal theft.

Edit: I realise this was an indirect response to your comment, so I would also like to add that a meta-point I want to make is that we came to almost polar opposite conclusions despite having the same "morality" to a certain accuracy. Therefore, it could be argued that morality is not a sufficient measure for lawmaking.
I think Neeva needed user signup growth more than it needed cash. It was reasonably well funded through VC. If it had shown adoption growth they would have received more VC money to continue even if they were losing money on each user.

Kagi appears to be more bootstrapped, so it's very, very important for them to always maintain healthy marginal profits on each user. In this case, your cash is probably very appreciated, and hopefully they're net positive overall so can afford years of potential stagnation after this boom time while still earning a decent living. That allows them to be around to get sudden influxes of new customers whenever various self-inflicted crises damage the incumbents brands. Time in market vs. timing the market.
I love Z-library, it's obvious that once we've found a means of transmitting books as "code/software/bits", the concept of copyright was changed forever, the catalog available in Z-library is superb, and the site is easy to navigate.

What I see talked way less is that the quality of new books, in light of this, is very bad. Most books out there that were published in the 21st century serve as business cards. Commoditizing the complement, they call it.

This is a little frustrating to hear. Since that is exactly the feeling I often have. Proportions and time seems incorrect and you question what you are going wrong. I have a few cookbooks like the ones from Yotam Ottolenghi where the recipe is actually correct. It is so much more fun to use. Nothing wrong with improvising in the kitchen, but trying to fix incorrect salt balance, being stressed over longer cooking time than expected, etc. is not much fun.
