By untyped I assume you mean dynamic languages? I’m some contexts it’s not convenient to lug around a type checker, embedded languages for example. Other times if doing macro heavy programming (lisp, forth) it’s hard to build a type system that can properly type check the code or resolve the implicit types in a reasonable amount of time.

In the context of JSON you can work on it without types from a typed language. It’s just that as a force of habit coders may chose to spend time adding types to things when they shouldn’t.
Who are those people who are offended when you introduce an edge case against their argument? This is very weird behaviour because the whole civilisation is built on finding edge cases to demonstrate that a model doesn't work.

For example, would it be offensive to say that a feather and a hammer will fall at the same speed on the moon to take down the Aristotle's theory of gravity? Is it OK to not talk about that kind of stuff in order not to offend Aristotletes?

I think the author has a point, but not the point they were trying to make.

The love for the word meritocracy in tech came from a culture of optimism. Optimism affected each layer of the system differently. Executives loved these kinds of office spaces because it was an easy sell to investors, partners, future employees, and clients. Their value was expressed in opulence. For engineers that optimism was expressed in attitudes and greenfield development - the slogans of yesteryear are artifacts of that "In meritocracy we trust", and "Don't be evil".

Of course, a decade after greenfield development had stuck around it became just the field. There's been a shift in tech recently which I think comes from recognizing that as much as you may desire it to move more quickly, the world moves at its own pace. You can seemingly make the ball move more quickly in the short term but in the lattice of time the ball has still moved marginally. People grew up and realized that the optimism we had worked for a few, but not always the ways we intended, and at times worked backwards.

That's not to say we're in a cynical rut, just that things aren't as glossy. San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area became unaffordable to live in even for engineers. No longer could you have a house, you had to be happy with an apartment or a condo priced a few orders of magnitude above what national averages were. Commutes became long and those that had moved to SF in the early days or already owned homes voted not to improve expanding train lines so that more workers could come to work while enjoying the same fruits those early workers had. The dream soured.

I was in SF as this all changed. I met a wonderful woman, I switched to a remote job, and I moved to a place with less tech workers. I still love writing code, if you visit my house the space dedicated to creativity is quite a set. I have other hobbies though; I have multiple gardens and a greenhouse, a place for chickens, and a space for my dog to run like an idiot.

I never got the millions that people would murmur and dream about. I got what $475k in SouthEast Portland, Oregon would afford me and I was more than happy with that. It's why I'm so adamant that working from home is the right thing to do. I don't need a short order cook, my deli guy will do. I don't need a huge space dedicated to open air conversations, Slack huddles out of my parlor or on my patio will do. I don't need a sardine can office to maximize developers/sqft my quiet office will do.

The optimism, in my eyes, shifted from one centered around the company and the progress we could make as an industry to, "Where can I go to do what I do and make progress with a community that is not work?" That's to say, tech is rediscovering that it is part of the open world, not the leader of it.

Good article; it's thought provoking and I'd read it again. It's a good reminder of where we were a seemingly short time ago.

IMO, the best out right now is https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Wizard-Vicuna-30B-Uncensored... (in llama.cpp ggmlv3 format). A 30B llama fine-tuned on a mix of WizardLM and Vicuna training data. It does conversational interactions pretty well (the wizard) and handles instruction fine too (vicuna).

But it is definitely no GPT3.5 or GPT4 replacement. It will not be good for getting "work" done or helping do tasks. It's for recreation. If you want a GPT3.5 level LLM, something akin to text-davinci-002, you'll need to do the SFT and RLHF fine tuning of the 65B llama yourself. And that's no small task. Neither is running a 65B model (even at 4 bits).
True - thanks for the clarification. As long as the ISS is rotating at a constant rate anything oriented to it inside of it will not perceive it to be rotating. It's rotating relative to a stationary perspective on the surface of the Earth but by the time anything docks to it, everything in the system will be rotating at the same rate. Thanks for pointing this out!

This is an intended feature of EFI/Windows, used to implement device drivers and theft protection.

So short of "don't use EFI" or "don't use Windows", there's not much you can do. There shouldn't be an easy way to disable this, as it'll brick devices when it shouldn't (missing drivers), or doesn't brick devices when it should (bypassing theft protection).
I heavily doubt that threats from lawyers could improve the situation or software quality. It just would be too risky for smaller players to release any software at all. There is no know method to create software free of errors.

Yes, this is consistent with my ChatGPT experience. I repeatedly asked it to tell me a story and it just sort of reiterated the same basic story formula over and over again. I’m sure it would go with a different formula in a new session but it got stuck in a rut pretty quickly.

True, but bare metal systems also receive those updates on a regular basis, and containers need security updates too. Unless you're willing to throw it all out and use NixOS you're not going to solve that problem. And if you do, you're opting into far more work since you've just thrown out every standard package management solution and install or setup instructions you were previously relying on and you've just became a pain in the ass to your coworkers and ops teams who haven't drank that koolaid with you.

Personally, I've never once ran into an issue where updating Debian packages in a Docker image impacted my daily life. I'm sure there's some anecdotes and greater than zero potential for it but it just doesn't seem like a major issue anywhere. Docker and Dockerfiles are a practical and low-friction means of getting install steps documented and it's generally a step up over what is normally done. I'm not going to let perfect be the enemy of good and will gladly deal with a Dockerfile that updates its packages first over a markdown file that does nothing.
The best thing a current compiler can provide is probably replacing intrinsics with more conventional-looking things like GCC's Vector extensions[1] and C++'s simd<T>. Even then you'd need to do a little bit of union work for the cooler operations.

Why hasn't the community created a distributed Folding@home style GPT4/LLM software, where anyone can ask a question, and all participants machine's are contributing to the computation of the answer? It seems like the ideal way for the open source community. Is it not possible for some reason with the way LLMs work and compute? Or has it simply just not been done yet?
Sophisticated investors generally do not want "decentralized and permissionless" assets. They want government and legal protections.

Maybe you thing they are wrong for wanting that, because maybe you think the government is a threat to their wealth, and that is fine to have that opinion but the market for "decentralized and permissionless" isn't very big, which is why you don't see much money going into crypto anymore.
If Ghana wants to be protectionist, it has my support. But this is not that. This is Ghana's clothes merchants asking for import subsidies (the opposite of protectionism, not just free trade, but "anti-protectionism"?). And of course, such a request should be made to the Ghanan government, not the EU...
While we like to romanticize these groups, they often have ulterior motives in getting users to the site. Pushing ads from less-than-reputable ad-sources, and having a section with binaries where admins can push malware laden programs/games/files to increase the size of a client's botnet.

The model is that as users become more comfortable on the site, they eventually browse to the more dangerous categories and download programs/games/cracks/etc...

I wrote a blog post about a deep dive I did on one site, and showed that the admins were seeding malware in program downloads.

Suffice to say, when I reported the admins, other admins banned my account on the site and IP blocked me.

I actually ended up taking the blog post down because they started attacking my domain, and even Google blacklisted my domain because I had snippets of the malware code posted (I guess I should have used images instead of code). I was younger and just tinkering with security research anyway.
I'm not anyone involved in this thread (so far), but I've written a minimal PDF parser in the past using something between 1500-2000 lines of Go. (Sadly, it was for work so I can't go back and check.) Granted, this was only for the bare-bones parsing of the top-level structures, and notably did not handle postscript, so it wouldn't be nearly enough to render graphics. Despite this, it was tricky because it turns out that "following the spec" is not always clear when it comes to PDFs.

For example, I recall the spec being unclear as to whether a newline character was required after a certain element (though I don't remember which element). I processed a corpus containing thousands of PDFs to try to determine what was done in practice, and I found that about half of them included the newline and half did not---an emblematic issue where an unclear official "spec" meant falling back to the de facto specification: flexbility.

It's honestly a great example of something a GPT-like system could probably handle. Doable in a single source file if necessary, fewer than 5k lines, and can be broken into subtasks if need be.
People with a background in music always seemed to make good programmers. Their education background didn't seem to matter. PhDs that I've worked with, in whatever field, have been a mixed bag. Some were great, a couple of them were barely tolerable gas bags.

There is literally no alternative.

You’re stuck with openai, and you’re stuck with whatever rules, limitations or changes they give you.

There are other models, but specifically if you’re actively using gpt-4 and find gpt-3.5 to be below the quality you require…

Too bad. You’re out of luck.

Wait for better open source models or wait patiently for someone to release a meaningful competitor, or wait for openai to release a better version.

That’s it. Right now, there’s no one else letting people have access to their models which are equivalent to gpt-4.

Correcto, it's meant to live at-rest in plain text files. When you exec the `ledger` binary, you point it at a collection of ledger files, and it parses them into memory to perform whatever operations you request (report generation, etc.).

It's written in C++ and scales about as well as you'd imagine (i.e. mainly a function of memory constraints).

It sounds like exporting to DATEV is the right choice for your customers and region.

The benefit of a format like ledger is that it's universal and relatively trivial to write your own parser for. Most accounting software packages might not import ledger files natively, but there's probably a ledger -> $your_format converter out there – if not, it's generally trivial to write one. It's kind of like how "markdown" became a common language for latex-generated PDFs, HTML, and powerpoint slides thanks to Pandoc. Ledger doesn't quite have a pandoc-style tool yet, but `.ldg` files are basically the accounting equivalent of markdown or HTML.

I did some googling around for datev and ledger, found this thread that might be interesting to you (much of it is over my head): https://www.reddit.com/r/plaintextaccounting/comments/jzi6ci...
