>We all know it is coming, there is no avoiding it.

"We all know a recession will happen in the future." Yes, that is how recessions work. The economy is cyclical, so if you predict a recession long enough, you will eventually be right.
The state of the NHS, while embarassing, has little bearing on whether we enter a recession. Most of their effort goes into helping people who do not productively contribute to the economy.
Unfortunately, Twilio is no longer a viable option for sending SMS for personal use. If you want to send SMS you have to register a "campaign" and jump through a bunch of hoops that assume you're a company sending a large volume of application-generated messages (e.g. you must disclose samples of the types of messages you intend to send, and get explicit opt-in from recipients). Up until now, I've managed to avoid registering a campaign by instead paying a slightly higher per-message cost, but this is being phased out on July 5. I've been trying out https://jmp.chat (their founder is commenting elsewhere in this thread) and will likely port my number to them.

Fair use is irrelevant to the anti-circumvention provisions (at least unless the Library of Congress explicitly sets out an exception, and they have not for emulation), and the statement that encryption is fair use is significantly more ambiguous than people hope it is (for a start neither of the relevant cases were heard in a high enough court to establish a significant precedent).

Right. If would be one thing if you were genetically modifying spinach to produce the vitamin. But if you're starting with the finished product and doing stuff with it, why not just sell it as is? Additional steps are just adding to cost.
Depends. But moving the payload between the body and the query will not solve anything performance wise if you design for it.

Did you know that HTTP is an inherently stateless protocol?

From the very first line in the RFC[1]:

"The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a stateless application-
level protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypertext information
systems."

Which is why you need to send a header every time you make a request with authorization data.

Given that: no, stateful methods like OPEN/CLOSE would not fit at all with how HTTP is designed to work.

I predict there will be another six months of these sorts of articles, accompanied by a raft of LLM-powered features that aren't nearly as transformative as the people currently hyping AI are telling us to expect.

The engineers I know whose job it is to implement LLM features are much more skeptical about the near future than the engineers who are interested in the topic but lack hands-on experience.
Can you show some example(s) on the techniques ?
If this actually became necessary, I would assume we're already in a world where sea ice has been gone for a decade or more, polar wildlife is a write-off already and humanity is facing regular catastrophic climate events (storms, floods, and fires), mass migrations and famines.

My point isn't that it's an amazing idea, or even a good one, just that it's eminently within the realms of physical and economic possibility. Hell, SAC probably flew a comparable number air miles than that for decades at a time, just circling nuclear weapons near the USSR.

I'm water cooling both the CPU and GPU in my PC and have found out that leads to virtually no airflow over the m.2 slot. For now I've simply placed a fan aimed directly at the slot on top of the GPU and that keeps the SSD at a 50 to 60C. I am considering installing a water block on the SSD when I do maintenance next.
Electricity cannot be stored, regardless of source. Base load is a thing, sure. But there are ways ro cope with that, all energy hungry industries in Europe, and Germany, found ways to do so. That includes everything, from steel over chemicals to paper.

The lack, and price, of gas for things other than electricity was a problem for a while. But one that had nothing to do with nuclear power.
Depends. If you can subpoena mail server records of read mail, that proves they read the mail. If they read it and didn't respond, somebody can argue in court that that was an implicit agreement, because if it was wrong, they could have replied and disagreed (you were asking for confirmation). But then again IANAL.
Yes. Because it is.

The "grid" wasn't "strained". The main source of cheap gas got strangled due to a war. Most of it was used in home heating and industry, neither of which nuclear would help with without more electrification.
As other commenters have remarked, the bombing of Germany's energy infrastructure by a literal ally is an extraordinary violation of sovereignty. You can do mental gymnastics to pretend that is irrelevant. It's called "being in denial". And yet Germany is now in an energy-cost-induced recession. Is that also "irrelevant"?

And we haven't even brought up FM Baerbock and where her allegiance lies (the Washington-based Atlantic Council said she was "in lockstep" with them).

Regarding the German tanks, it says everything that even the Scholz-Baerbock regime was reluctant to send them. If it was truly in Germany's national security interest, it would be a no-brainer. But it's not about national security, it's about politics and Washington's interests in the region.

So there's clearly a strong case for Germany not really being sovereign. When I ask you to make the opposing argument, you evade.
The cost of an SGI wasn't the plastic trim. They were loaded with a lot of custom chips that were all relatively low production volume. Those components had a relatively high cost because of the production volume and then obviously a nice margin added on top. The plastic exterior was literally just decoration.

How can we say it doesn’t exist at birth? The newborn has wants and needs and can recognize their mother’s voice. The need to be fed and comforted soon follows.

I was under the impression that new methods could not be amended into an existing RFC by revision but would require a new major.minor version all together is that not the case?

This the best way, productivity of automatic memory management, and low level features for when that extra performance actually makes a difference.
Ah, you don't need linear types for that. Linear types will prevent you from duplicating or discarding values, but all you need is to only allow "final state" values to be used in your API.

Also a reminder that I should read articles before commenting.
Because the controller and flash are on the same physical device in a very small amount of space, at least somewhat thermally coupled, not just by the PCB, but by "heat spreaders" often sold with the drive or part of the motherboard. Google around and you'll see lots of thermal camera images of M2 drives.

As the article points out, these drives consume up to ~10W under load. That's actually a lot of power for something with very, very little thermal mass - around 10 grams, and a heat capacity of around 400J/KgC is common for PCBs and chips. 0.4J/gC means that for just one second under full load, if the heat is generated evenly across the entire device, it will heat up 2.5 degrees C. Assuming no cooling, that's 24 seconds until it hits is thermal throttling point.

From the article:

> The amount of activity taking place on the gumstick-sized M.2 form factor means higher temps not only for the storage controller, but for the NAND flash itself.

> NAND, Tanguy explains, is happiest within a relatively narrow temperature band. "NAND flash actually likes to be 'hot' in that 60° to 70° [celcius] range in order to program a cell because when it's that hot, those electrons can move a little bit easier," he explained.

> Go a little too hot — say 80°C — and things become problematic, however. At these temps, you risk the SSD's built-in safety mechanisms forcibly powering down the system to prevent damage. However, before this happens users are likely to see the performance of their drives plummet, as the SSD's controller throttles itself to prevent data loss.

FYI, Tanguy according to his linkedin is the principle product engineer for Micron.

That's interesting. The traffic sources hitting me seem to be the opposite. Mainly US, Western Europe, and other better well to do places around the world. I suspect a lot of the traffic is from apps on smart devices. I've seen user agents that reference Bravia tvs for example.

I could add a couple things from my own experiences. Storing prompts in a database seemed like a good idea, but in practice it ended up being a disater. Storing the prompt in a python/typescript file, up front at the top, works well. Using OpenAI playground with it's ability to export a prompt works well, or even better, something in gradio running in vscode with debugging mode, works even better. Few shots with refinements works really well. LangChain did not work well for any of my cases, I might go as boldly as saying that using langchain is bad practice.

The POTS lines were largely for goofing around, though I did use a FXO port to bring in the local POTS line. Mostly I used the FXS ports to interface a 1A2 KSU to Asterisk to run my old WE 2500 series key station.

90% of the traffic was handled over SIP or IAX to desk sets or ATAs.
Also spot prices reflect the storage availability. The storage will be filled by October according to the existing contracts. I.e. there is no much room to receive more gas if it will have to be brought to Europe in the next few months.

A really cold winter without Russian gas may bring the spot prices back to record levels as then the supply lines will be the bottleneck.

Long term Europe needs bigger storage to smooth price volatility.

I see it as a major symptom of larger structural issues that are going to make the UK poorer for 10 to 20 more years. You haven't even begun to steal in earnest from the wealthy and successful corporations, which will cause capital flight and further erode your standard of living. First you need many more union strikes, then you need to elect the hard left (which is coming), then you need to finally accept the inevitable and cut taxes, regulations, red tape, open up immigration, etc.

But this will take 10 to 20 years.

There are quite a few things here that I've used for a few years with option projects at work - overall I like it.

A big part of that is due to an endless stream of people who couldn't be bothered to learn what a venv was or how to use it, but... yeah, that's what work is like sometimes. The makefile pretty much ended those issues, absolutely worth the effort put into it.
They don't really maintain the regular Sync client anymore, only the expensive enterprise Connect option. My wife and I used Resilio Sync for years, but had to migrate away, since it had bugs and issues with newer OS versions, but they didn't care to fix them. Let alone develop new features.
There is no evidence the US destroyed the pipeline. Hersh's story is a fairytale with lots of alleged facts that have been specifically debunked. There is no robust public evidence on who actually destroyed the pipeline. Everything that is public is circumstancial and contradictory.

It isn't particularly new, given that most of our media are either doctored, touched up, or manipulated in some ways.

Most of us don't have VFX knowledge or the ability to detect minute flaws in Deepfake works.

We do it through by filtering and selecting sources of information.
There are a couple things happening here:

1) We benefit from social media lumping voices together because it's easier to argue against and internally reason with. They aren't individuals with individual experiences, they're the unwashed entitled masses crying on social media spreading their lies. See how easy that was? We do this a lot for everything we don't agree with.

2) Spend any time anywhere and it's easy to start seeing "narratives". Online bubbles are real: most people do not comment on any given platform. Therefore, commenters are already a bubble in themselves. So we do what humans do and start seeking patterns, and then extract these patterns into narratives. Note: this does not mean that there aren't groups of people who do share whatever "narrative" idea, but the reality is their views on it tend to be more nuanced than the narrative we've imagined in our minds. For example, 'America sucks and is failing' could be a common vague narrative people share, but you would get so many varied explanations that it stops existing as such a simple narrative until you reduce it again into a vague narrative.

3) Social media has its pros and cons, but one of its neutrals is it forces people from entirely different groups to interact with each other. This winds up becoming world shattering a lot of the times, because as humans we tend to create these internal stories that justifies our world views. We seek out things that justify these internal stories. We seek out people who reflect what we want, and this feeds into #2 and makes it harder to break out of. So, if you are optimistic you'll seek others who are also optimistic, and when social media does its recommendation/random thing, you'll encounter people who do not share this view and then it leads right back into #1 turning this into tribes. A beautiful self powering triangle if you will.
It’s not that easy. The church teaches that if you give your “first fruits” - ie gross before taxes - that no matter what or even if the numbers don’t add up, “God will provide”.

That means before getting out of debt, saving, paying your rent etc.

Dave Ramsey - a popular “financial guru” - is very opposed to debt of any kind except mortgage debt. But he’s also a fundamentalist Christian. He tells people that you should give 10% of your gross to your church (not his organization) even if you are struggling to get out of debt.

The church is very adamant about it.

I’m not here to debate theology. I’m just letting you know about the RFC for Christianity.

Logically (as if that had anything to do with it) if a mechanical notification from the first party is taken as securing de-facto consent from the second party to record any conversation that follows, and the first party is in a jurisdiction requiring two-party consent, the second party should be allowed to deduce that the first party has itself given consent for the conversation to be recorded.
I'd call all of these things specific cases of some of the general problems we've faced with using neural networks for years. There's a big gap between demo and product. One one hand OpenAI has built a great product, on the other hand, it's not yet clear if downstream users will be able to do the same.

> lack of developed nuclear power

Well, Germany had a few (remaining) nuclear power plants, and the lasts were shut down this year for political reasons. Apparently, it's better to import gas from Qatar and burn coal in the meantime while enjoying a (partially) self inflicted recession.
For now. Who is going to be the first company to pull it off though? I'd definitely subscribe to that - would love fresh produce parcels dropped off on my front steps or backyard by drone delivery. This has already been done with medical supplies before which is super cool.
IMHO, if you’ll be watching your first Tarkovsky film start with Stalker, which is how my girlfriend (now wife of 27 years), introduced me to him many years ago. I was very much a Fellini person, and the Bergman-Tarkovsky school seemed cryptic (at best) at the time. When finished, ask yourself (1) if you would have gone into the room and (2) what the dreamlike sequences with Stalker’s son meant.

Second one should be Solaris, if you’re into SciFi or The Mirror if you’re not of if you’d like a challenge. I think The Mirror is the better movie, the woman (stand in for T’s mom) looking at the wheat field (T had these specifically planted for the film!) haunts me to this day.

I personally couldn’t relate to The Sacrifice, perhaps his most personal film. His earlier films (Ivan and Rublev) I could not watch at all.

To be a genius artist like him in the Soviet Union meant privileges unheard for art film directors in Europe (let alone US), eg see the wheat field thing above. It also meant you’re at the mercy of the “masses”. I had read an article once that included a comment for The Mirror from a regular filmgoer, saying after 30mins it caused such a headache! The funding was based on such feedback and the movie was labeled as elitist (it is) which greatly impacted his career. It’s infuriating to think T lost time due to such petty interference (OTOH, I could only finish the film on my third try, falling asleep in first two attempts! So she had a point)
> Wasabi isn't meant for scenarios where you're going to be transferring more than you're storing.

Which is basically a roundabout way of saying, they're offering storage for backups, not for content distribution.
A queue shines when it can distribute incoming calls based on it knowing agent availability. (Shameless plug: the company I work for does cloud reporting [1] for Asterisk and FreeSwitch queues - that is then whitelabelled and sold by a lot of big name telcos worldwide. Not sexy but effective!)

> That's not AR anymore, you are now asking for VR

The Nreal Air is basically a pair of sunglasses that don't look TOO dorky and automatically display a massive 130"+ screen in front of you when you plug them in. When the screen is off you can see through the sunglasses normally. Maybe there's a subtler difference I'm missing between AR and VR but to me that's AR.

IMO Nreal's version isn't quite ready for mass adoption but if there's anyone who could make a better version you'd think it would be Apple (though it would likely cost more money).
I would argue a more appropriate title would be something about integrating LLMs into complex products.

A lot of the problems are much more easily solved when you're working on a new product from scratch.

Also, I think LLMs work much better with structured data when you use them as a selector instead of a generator.

Asking an LLM to generate a structured schema is a bad idea. Ask it to pick from a set of pre-defined schemas instead, for example.

You're not using LLMs for their schema generating ability, you're using them for their intelligence and creativity. Don't make them do things they're not good at.
