You have said alot of words with out saying anything to support your position on ageism.

Sure we all will suffer decline, and we will all die, this truth does not support wide scale discrimination on generalized age. We all will suffer this decline at different points in life, based on many factors age, diet, exposure, etc etc.

Some people in their 30's may already be suffering this decline, where others in their 70's have not yet...

So then the case should be made for individualistic competency based parameters, not an arbitrary age based delineation.

your statement was in support of that idea that simply based on age alone, not cognitive, competency or other factors should be the determination of your fitness for a given role in society. Later comments you then want to change this goal post to be competency based, so which is it, at age 65 should every person be put out to pasture, or should it be individualized competency based, where if a person is suffering from decline and can not longer do the job then and only then do they get removed?
this is well in line with the woke culture, everything is about feelings, and not rational arguments. They need trigger warnings, and if things hurt some feefee's, its simply unacceptable regardless of factual matters.

that is why it is so disruptive in a professional setting, and kills all real honest cooperation
OpenAI's mentioned that it was basically getting a lot of little details right.

Some of the bigger details:

* Huge compute scale for the pre-training

* Huge data scale

* Well processed and cleaned data (GDB has alluded to this)

* Fine tuning with large amounts of code snippets and examples

* Massive amounts of RLHF

* Continual ongoing RLHF

Effectively, but worth noting for clarity that they only explicitly wanted to demote the talk from keynote. But as this was disrespectful, the speaker withdrew entirely.
Not really surprising. The biggest giveaway should be for Americans to look at other countries. Annual checkups really are not at all the norm in most places. In the UK for example, the last time I saw a doctor was about 16 years ago when I broke my wrist.

There are many, many explanations for i.e. why didn't China attack Taiwan (yet) and while the U.S. finger in the region helps in some ways, supporting Taiwan proclaiming independence for example may actually not be helping to prevent war there. It seems to me like China is much more reluctant than Russia is to go to such a war, probably because apart from facing domestic nationalistic pressure to do so, there's little actual reason and China does not really want to have its (in Chinese memory) recent expansion of the middle class stopped by facing isolation. Even the Chinese government responds to popular pressure by simply adjusting its policy more often than deploying tanks.

With regards to Russia, Putin, (being a Russian neocon), is using the example of how Russians are sometimes treated in former Soviet countries with regards to citizenship, speaking Russian etc., as well as Ukraine say banning Russian language books or the Russian flag being banned at sports events, which actually helps his cause domestically. If we were actually interested in weakening his grip, we'd strongly oppose such policies imo.

You need to read more legal documents mate.

I guess the reason people are scared is that GDPR is the first legal text they ever came into contact with. These are really common legal terms which have huge numbers precedence attached.
This is modern wokespeak for "what you did is unprofessional and I'm not sticking around for more." A lot of the emotional hyperbole in this blog post is essentially that - emotional vulnerability and sensitivity is valued in "hyper-woke" contexts, while words like "unprofessional" are seen as callous - and I kind of read it that way rather than literally.

> The people gave away their freedoms out of fear.

Where do you think that fear comes from? It can be fabricated using real or fake events anytime the government wants to pursue a political or financial goal. Modern media is a government mouthpiece, even in apparent liberal democracies, and is used to sway public opinion in any direction.

This mechanism is also exploited by political enemies, to sow dissent and social unrest, crippling democratic systems.
I'm curious, was there any pushback to its introduction ?

In France, when the government tried to introduce something like this in 1973, it (eventually) caused a scandal (after a scathing Le Monde article), which resulted in the whole project being scrapped, and the French data protection authority CNIL being created :

The only real “new” issue that would come out of this is the hypothetical problem of stealing DNA from someone else to create a gamete. Granted, this technology is still very much in its infancy and, while the promise implied here is that you can create the gamete from any cell, in practicality, it may require a good quality sample of a specific kind of cell to reliably make this happen.

As someone who is active in the Donor Conceived Community, being a product of donor sperm, this process would remove a lot of trauma from the offspring of these arrangements. A big problem is that a lot of offspring did not receive the benefit from genetic mirroring which causes some issues when the child is not informed at the earliest age.

Some of these problems stemming from this trauma include developing trust issues, feeling of not belonging, and even a poor ability to recognize faces later in life. There’s also the problem with large sibling groups even to this very day due to fragmented rules and sparse regulations.

Growing up with genetic family does prevent the bulk, if not all, of complaints fielded by offspring such as myself. This is it something parents, both perspective and current, never want to hear because it’s upsetting, uncomfortable, and it’s a threat to their self. If they accept this, they accept that no matter what they do, they may never be good enough if using an anonymous gamete donor. While this is not true if you take a child-centered approach, the conversation has usually ceased by now.

Newborn babies are not a blank canvas for painting upon, nor do they exist to please and serve their parents. The DNA they are born with links them back to their biological parents and absence of one or both without that knowledge is trauma, unfortunately.

The pedants are going to catastrophize with wild hypotheticals from their armchairs, but I know this can be transformative for many who seek gamete donation and greatly beneficial to their offspring who are born with this technology.
> Disagreeing with someone, using valid arguments, is not the same as squelching discourse.

I can relate with your position; I understand what you're saying. I guess my point is that some words that humans speak can strike a nerve in others. For instance, apparently I'm a huge Temple Grandin fan. I didn't know that until I mentioned the name Temple Grandin to my girlfriend of nearly five years recently and she basically snapped and told me that she never wanted me to say that name again. Apparently when I first met her I had a lot of good things to say about Temple Grandin, and I guess throughout the following five years I've mentioned Temple Grandin enough that it just raises her hackles when she hears it now. She's a good person, and absolutely does not have anything against Temple Grandin. She just doesn't like hearing that name when it's my voice speaking it.

Deliberately pretending that all they want to do is limit government spending, or that that's why they're being called far right is a strawman.

Not to mention the implicit theory that any of the far right are consistent with that from administration to administration.

Sigh. Politicians. They should tackle Energy, Transport and Water. It is not like Food prices in UK are expensive even when they are 30% higher than before.
I'm not sure what kind of evidence that would be. Version selection is NP-complete, so there is no known algorithm that efficiently solves all problem instances.

You can spend time looking really hard at the problem instances you have and identifying common patterns, and write a complex algorithm that works well as long as the dependencies you are trying to solve at least sort-of follow these patterns. This usually works well until it fails completely, at which point you can look really hard for new patterns in new use cases, and make your complex algorithm handle those as well.

But there's also the option of turning your problem into a SAT (or answer set programming, or constraint programming, or integer programming, etc.) formulation, using an existing SAT solver, and not have to write any complex algorithm at all.

You can always detect server side if it’s an Unpoly request, and which fragments it is asking for as that information goes in the request headers.

The EU is working on a law that forbids selling devices with known vulnerabilities. This means manufacturers will either have to patch their stuff quickly or risk getting their entire lineup banned from sale if a serious security issue is found in their hardware. Stores will probably demand support lifetimes as well or they'll be stuck with unsellable stock once a company decides that three years of updates turned out to be too long after all.

I think further provisions are necessary, such as source code escrow; once you go out of business or drop software support for a product, the entire code repository should open up to the public to fix it themselves, including the necessary keys to load the replacement software. It shouldn't matter if you use the same code base for other devices that you do support, if you're maintaining that code you may as well push those fixes out to older devices.

The biggest issue with phones and tablets is that often the problem lies within kernel driver that the manufacturer has no control over. Qualcomm and friends are the biggest crooks here, sometimes dropping software support for their chips after only two or three years, with no realistic alternatives for sourcing SoCs.
Yep. Every year or so I re-enable it to see if recent Windows updates have fixed it. They never have.
Nobody cares but the speaker themselves.

There is obviously some legit cred here, and it's a definite downgrade - but it's not being sent to the woods either. G

Given that 'nobody else cares at all, whatsoever' - that adds context to this which we should include in our understanding. Nobody is missing grant money, or getting a stain on their resume, not getting a job, publicly dragged, meaning the slight is ultimately very personal.

There is a legit grievance here, but it's overstated.

Most gripes have a kernel of truth, the issue is to match up the size of the truth, with the size of the kernel.

I think op is making a rust joke more than anything else.
>>As the joke goes, democracy is the least bad system we have tried.

This implies that the US system has been static since our founding. My position is that many of the problems we face as a nation today are directly or indirectly a result of modification to the foundations of our government replacing non-democratic checks with more democratic ones.

Directly applicable here is the passage of the 17th amendment where by previously the State government choose their Senators, as the Senate was to be representative of the States not the people. Thus why there are equal numbers for every State.

As a result of this democratic change in the government the people now have 2 houses in congress, and the State's have no representation at all. This also completely changed the power dynamic and effectively rendered the 10th and 9th amendments void

What you say makes sense but misses a critical point i.e of self compassion. Looking at the piano example, if they are kind to themselves and based on the amount of compassion they have, a failure of screwing up a few keys might be nothing, missing a piece from a song might be a bad day and screwing up a live orchestra may be a learning experience.
To another unkind to self piano play one or all of these are catastrophes and a hit to ones self esteem.
Both of these folks are experienced piano players but the former is able to disconnect and review their mistakes without placing a judgement on self(i.e. being a harsh parent to self.)

Depending on how harshly one judges oneself is the reason for not handling criticism to ones failings. No one is perfect so one better be kind and try to learn from their mistakes and not take it on their ego.
That's one hell of a twist on the idea of a wet dream.

Kind of I guess. If it is a single step: That is modify or generate text (could be code or anything) in a specific way, it works great even on obscure things.

However if the problem is stated in a way that it has to think through derivative of it's solution: that is generate some code that generates some other code which behaves in a certain way, it fails miserably. I'm not sure why. The problem I stated in current thread which it failed on I have tried multiple prompts to make it understand the problem but unfortunately nothing worked. It's as if it can do first level but but not second level abstraction.

The irony is I think GPT4 gives the best answer. It even gets the idea that language is inextricably tied up with our experiences of reality that most humans seem to simply not understand.

GPT4

"The statement that language models have a "model of reality" can be both true and false, depending on how you interpret "model of reality."

Language models like ChatGPT do have a kind of "model" in a broad sense. They have been trained on large amounts of text data from the internet and have learned statistical patterns from these data. This allows them to generate text that can seem sensible and knowledgeable about various aspects of reality.

However, this "model" is more akin to a very sophisticated pattern recognition system. It doesn't possess a deep or holistic understanding of reality as humans do. It doesn't form beliefs, doesn't have a consciousness, and doesn't experience the world in any sense. It can't learn from the environment or update its understanding over time. Its "knowledge" is fixed at the time it was last trained (for GPT-4, this is as of September 2021), and it can't incorporate new information or discoveries unless it's trained on new data.

Therefore, while language models like GPT-4 can simulate a kind of "knowledge" or "understanding" based on patterns in the data they were trained on, they don't have a model of reality in the sense of an evolving, interactive understanding based on sensory experience and reflection.

So, language models have a "model of reality" only in the sense that they mimic certain aspects of human language use, which is inextricably tied up with our experiences of reality. But this is quite different from possessing a human-like understanding or model of the world."

More or less correct, healthcare in Canada is mostly “private” with a single public payer on a provincial level. One other difference is that hospitals are owned and run by the government (with slight variation between provinces) so they don’t bill the government and are instead given large annual budgets with some incentive based payments.

Imagine the US system with Medicare as a single payer setting rates and HHS owning all of the hospitals.

Physicians (for the most part) bill the government on a fee for service basis and most do so through a medical professional corporation that only physicians and certain family members are allowed to be shareholders in.

It is illegal to charge for services insured by the government. It is not illegal to charge for uninsured services (for example some knee arthritis injections) or those not insured (e.g. visiting Americans).

I knew Dr. Day professionally, he has run an ambulatory surgical center (different from a private clinic, all freestanding clinics are “private” in Canada) for several years now and the issue with his practice is they are providing insured services (like joint replacements) charged directly to the patients. Although technically illegal, the BC government has let this happen due to long wait times and lack of political will in their voter base but this recently gone to the legal system.
