That's not the only incident. And there's also patterns across decades of projects, sometimes even including some of the same lineage or influences, and we'd like to learn from the past.

An individual Rust developer probably doesn't care about any of that, absolutely correct.

But it can affect some Rust developers near-term in perceptible ways, and longer-term it will absolutely affect much more.

Fair point :) I wonder why the kernel is so aggressive about migrating threads, it also loses the cache contents. FWIW our command line tools at one point pinned themselves to the current core, which did help performance.
This project is very exciting. In the meantime, there are a couple of options:

BiwaScheme: https://www.biwascheme.org/

Advantages: written in JavaScript, with excellent JS interop. Project has some history.

Disadvantages: slower than S7 (though still plenty fast for many uses), less-complete (e.g., no syntax-rules or syntax-case, though it does have its own define-macro).

S7 Scheme: https://cm-gitlab.stanford.edu/bil/s7

Written in C, but can be transpiled to WASM (see https://github.com/actonDev/s7-playground/ )

Advantages: This project also has some history. Considerably faster than BiwaScheme.

Disadvantages: JS interop is clumsier (basically the same issues as JS interop with any WASM code... this could probably be mitigated considerably if someone wanted to take the time).

> I’m a little surprised at the statement that ~10%+ performance on a transport protocol isn’t worth it.

Well, depending on which contrast we're making, the performance difference on that one line is either 10ms (by which bit-twiddling is faster than Uint8Array.writeUint16BE) or 100ms (by which Uint8Array.writeUInt16BE is faster than DataView.setUint16) per million frames. I don't think that's going to be anything like 10% of the total CPU time per frame. Unless I've misunderstood your point here?

Not a podcaster. On the one hand, you have network effects, where everyone would be on a podcasting platform because everyone else is. On the other hand, you have the rise and fall of streaming services, where there are so many of them with exclusive rights to IP that it's just neo-cable at this point. Too many podcasting platforms will tire out consumers who want to manage podcasts they like, too few and we get monopoly (monopsony maybe). So maybe there's an "optimal'" number of platforms, 5? 6? that offer choice and variety without being overwhelming and haphazard.

As your wording implies, finetuning is restricted to the smaller models, i.e. babbage, curie etc.

You can generate the training data for this with 3.5 and 4 and tune smaller models with the resulting data. For lots of tasks, this results in robust results, which btw are also faster than 3.5 turbo.
A GPU specializes in Vector math, which is what is used in gaming graphics. Hence the name Graphics Processing Unit and it's original use case. It just so happens that LLMs are powered by vector math much like graphics applications are.

It makes it all the more interesting that Google is currently losing to an upstart. They have a MASSIVE advantage in data and moats, but cannot execute on novel products to take advantage of it, despite also hiring a significant chunk of the talent in the market as well.

But perhaps at this stage Google's not meant to / need to build cutting edge products, but rather focus on commoditizing the ones that prove profitable.

A lot of people loony or not are terrified of international organizations and non-democratic foundations and networks forcing down a global system of governance against their wishes and local desires, there are all sorts of reasons for this and so these people see the '15 minute' cities as a step into being less autonomous or able to travel freely which there is some truth to. The bigger problem though is that we are in a time where even the US politicians seem to defer decisions to international bodies and try to get them down stream to voters, and people are recognizing this and reacting to it with the only power and limited information they can muster.... So, yes, silly protest or loony or whatever, these people are fearful of a very real thing taking place all over the world and announced widely by the people propagating it.

There is a wider issue here where some people value individual liberty and some people value order, environment or public health more. For some people seeing the WEF declare you will own nothing and eat insects, all sorts of folks saying you wont drive cars, etc etc - people can see this as an amazing step forward in [environment or equity in this case] - other people see this as a totalitarian step into removing their autonomy.

It's good to keep in mind that discarding grievances as being 'woke' or 'conspiracy minded' or apparently 'swivel-eyed loonish' (this term tickles me a lot as a non UK person lol) is a good way to feel right and morally sound but the end results for society at large will probably be less than exciting.

I've released two frameworks and a bunch of libraries over the years for free. I can't say why others do it, but here's why I've done it:

They were things I needed to develop for other projects I was working on (some for profit, others not). I found them very useful and thought others would, too -- so I released them.

Could I have sold them? Probably. But I was already paid for these because I used them in projects that I did sell, and I prefer to release useful software to the community when I can afford to. It's better for everyone that way.

Also, there's the question of support. If I sold them, I'd be obligated to support them. That's an additional cost that I didn't want to commit to.

That's a good question, but the answers are somewhat sad. I see the other commenters saying it's not about the search, but about the curation. Curation or identification (as in, "who's the author?") is essential, but decentralized search is non-existent too. Yes, there is unmaintained, resource-hungry, locally-run, unscalable software out there that you can use, but there really isn't a public search engine for this. Which is a shame. I really hope someone will tell me I missed something, but I'm not holding my breath :(

I recently put out in public the prototype of the game that I have been slaving on for the last 1.5 years - despite all the bug checking I did it, it's still filled with bugs and the gameplay is basic. But then I realized - at this stage very few people care and the ones that do will forgive your stumbling starts. As long as you manage expectations you can just continuously iterate on it and patch.

Now that I know I can just fix a few bugs, add a some small content here and there and push it on a weekend - there is actually a mental peace.

Often they don't chase. It's not like you're prey to them. If they got rid of you by scaring you off, they already accomplished their goal. Running away communicates very clearly that you don't plan to fuck with them.

They may make you run for a couple meters and once they're satisfied get back to whatever they were doing.
The more we perpetuate free and open models the less possible it will be to litigate against them. They can't sue us all.

If we move to this lie that Adobes models are "ethical" it gives them a moat to make free models illegal so Adobe becomes the only option.

Artists should be realizing the goal is to stop Adobe becoming the only option, if they do become the only legal way to do this then expect AutoCAD level pricing.
Effort is not a measure of quality or value in art.

>>I'm so tired of this "regulations bad" trope.

Yeah. Back in India, around 20 years ago, a factory owner near my house used to keep weak hyrdochloric acid in the fridge with water bottles. To save money, he would use... you guessed it, old water bottles (since the acid was very diluted).

Guess what happened one day when a worker confused the 2?

The owner son boasted to me how his father had paid the medical expenses of the worker, how nice he was etc etc.

And today I think, what would have happened if this had happened in the US/UK? The business owner would no longer be in business.

There is a reason these regulations are so hard ass; because they've had to cope with shit like this. Now sure, sometimes the regulations go overboard and end up harming the industry, but thats not an argument for "Muh, regulations bad ".
This seems like a bleak dystopian fiction concept actually. AIs being in control of human experimentation on the basis of well meaning but poorly interpreted ethical guidelines (with, of course, fully hallucinated loopholes).

> Consider instead a system that externalizes work. Following the lead of software developers, we might use virtual task boards, where every task is represented by a card that specifies who is doing the work, and is pinned under a column indicating its status.

I read this whole thing just to find out it's an ad for Jira?

I still do things in a GTD-like way despite Jira because every epic/story/issue/task/subtask is always horribly underspecified when it's not written by another dev and I still need to keep track of that work.

Often there's some overlap of the work, but I dare not show those cards. The best I can do is give a story point estimate and say if it can be finished by this sprint. If not for some kind of personal productivity methodology where does that aspect of work go? Jira boards can lead to micromanagement in the wrong hands because the broader organization lacks the specificity and rigor of the devs. They simply don't understand the work they're describing well enough. Nothing has changed in at least the last 30 years from the perspective of the knowledge worker.

What will really change things is to stop promoting non-technical people into leadership roles when technical work is the core competency.
Yep, I don't dispute anything you said there, I think that's pretty consistent with what I said.

Stacking likely wouldn't save substantial cost compared to producing multiple different wafers. It could even increase cost if it decreases yield. That's very different from making the transistors smaller, where the cost per transistor decreased exponentially in the past. People focus too much in Moore's law (transistors per area), when the only interesting quantities are 1) price per performance and 2) power draw per performance.
This is the first time I’ve ever seen anyone describe themselves as a “typescript developer”. Though, I do recall hearing people call themselves Java developers in the past. I guess I’m more used to terms like senior developer, backend developer, web developer, etc. rather than a particular language developer.
The more pressing reason they expire for web sites is that site ownership can change and you don't want someone else having an infinite lifetime cert for a domain you just bought.

Instead of fighting against "paper mills", let’s fight against journals. There are strong arguments against the need for peer-review for example [1]. Science does not get worse when there are more bad papers, science gets better when there are more good papers. Most papers in AI aren’t even reviewed by peers or editor and guess what: we have lots of progress happening. I’m not saying that is because the lack of review, I’m saying that reviews are not necessary for progress. Furthermore, was the iPhone good because it was reviewed by a board of "independent" reviewers? No it wasn’t. Let’s just ignore Nature. Good papers are good because they have good arguments and if they are not good, then time will tell. Papers are not good simply because Nature (TM) put a stamp on it.

Nobody was ever impressed by "industrial action" that starts and finishes during a long lunch break.
I propose a law: nobody can advertise a product without mentioning all the brands which offer same or similar product on the market (and the mention must be neutral or positive).

Or: all advertisers of all brands with a same or similar product must collaborate. Only voluntary input counts as collaboration; if a brand simply doesn't care about presentation of itself in the advertisement, they have trivially collaborated. Easiest way to implement this is giving every owner of all relevant brands a right to veto every entire final advertisement product (this right could also be surrendered, for all or some possible vetoed advertisements, in exchange for something in a contract).

Ignoring flaws of this proposition itself, what could be society's reasons for rejecting it? Does society perhaps want havers of more money to gain further advantage over havers of less money?
I think the main problem is not in itself incentivizing papers or using papers as a metric. The problem is that they're in many ways the only thing incentivized and the only metric given serious consideration. And the general expectations for/form of a paper are so homogenized across a given field. This makes it very feasible to game the system in a particular way that is bad for science.

It's also a serious misallocation of incentives purely from a system functioning perspective. At the very least you need to incentivize peer review alongside incentivizing papers. Currently there is hardly any incentive at all to help carefully review papers, so we have no checks and balances in place to deal with the natural result of incentivizing the writing of papers. If there were greater heterogeneity in scientific roles it wouldn't be so bad for some to have heavy paper incentives -- because there'd be others with heavy incentives to do a good job highlighting the best papers and finding flaws in the bad ones.
Feels like AI makes the fight against paper mills easier. A group could submit AI-generated papers to different places and create a public index based on how successful they are at getting their nonsense papers accepted.

"Eclypsium says it found Gigabyte’s hidden firmware mechanism while scouring customers’ computers for firmware-based malicious code, an increasingly common tool employed by sophisticated hackers. In 2018, for instance, hackers working on behalf of Russia’s GRU military intelligence agency were discovered silently installing the firmware-based anti-theft software LoJack on victims’ machines as a spying tactic. Chinese state-sponsored hackers were spotted two years later repurposing a firmware-based spyware tool created by the hacker-for-hire firm Hacking Team to target the computers of diplomats and NGO staff in Africa, Asia, and Europe. Eclypsium’s researchers were surprised to see their automated detection scans flag Gigabyte’s updater mechanism for carrying out some of the same shady behavior as those state-sponsored hacking tools—hiding in firmware and silently installing a program that downloads code from the internet."

I used to be a pretty big Atlassian fanboy. I'd default to most of their tools when they were available.

Before the new UI came around in ~2017 it performed pretty well and if you were judicious with customization it was easy to use. Everyone knows Jira so it was easy to get new people started with it. Then the redesign came out.

I opted in for a bit when it was in Alpha but bailed because I had trouble getting my job done in trivial ways. I'm normally pretty accepting and friendly to new UIs, even if its rough at first. I generally accept that I won't like most at first because it disrupts my workflow in the short term. Usually once I relearn the project its for the best. Not with this one. It's just so damn slow. It's terrible.

I'm not in a position where I pick our project management/documentation tooling anymore, but if I was I don't know what I'd pick. It used to be that I wouldn't think twice, now Jira isn't seriously in the running anymore. I think notion has beaten out confluence even if I'm still not in love with it.
