systemd-nspawn is still using binfmt which is how Linux tries to read ELF files, and what you really want when executing other architectures is to teach binfmt about qemu.

nspawn doesn't do anything additional here, but might be easier for most new sysadmins (sorry... "devops/platform/cloud engineers").

There are more than one parking spot per car.

One at home, one at work, one at the grocery store, one at the cafe. Some of those are shared, but it is entirely believable that we have more paved parking than we have housing
Yes, it's fair because I wouldn't expect that stipend to be required to pay for whatever extra medical costs said cripple had.
Further a "fair" system is never going to abolish all unfairness inherent in human existence - at a minimum it just needs to provide sufficient support that those who are struck with particularly bad luck don't suffer unnecessarily for it.
> I was weirdly focused on [the Actor] model that in practice has many issues

I maintain the actor model is probably the most theoretically perfect concurrency and distributed computing model. The holy grail. We just don't have the right hardware for it and it's extremely limited by addressability issues with current technology.

So I don't really find this surprising, nor disagreeable. It's just not a model that Works Well at present.
I doubt the real number believing that is half the public, or even half the voting public. Certainly a fair number, maybe not the majority, but at least a sizable chunk, of Republicans don't believe the stolen election theories.
I get better results by searching Amazon via DDG, Brave or Kagi. Amazon's search, especially for books, is nearly useless by comparison.
> At the bottom layer, we build and manage pre-configured Kubernetes clusters in your AWS accounts

Are you considering supporting other cloud providers? I'd personally always choose GCP for UX reasons, and I know there are many who choose Azure for MS reasons, or Alibaba for price/language/location reasons. I understand starting with AWS, just wondering if that's set in stone or if others are on the roadmap.

> We’ve never been big fans of the complicated pricing that most SaaS companies have so we sell Nucleus as a single annual license where you get everything. In full transparency, we currently price Nucleus around $35k/license, or about 10% of what it would cost you to build and maintain this yourself.

Having come from a startup with ~10-12 eng, in the middle of your target market, using K8S, and building tooling around it, this is substantially more than I think we'd have spent on it. Our Datadog bill for comparison was about half that per year, and our cloud bill was only ~6x that.

Our tooling for K8S was a few thousand lines of Terraform config, a few hundred line Python script, and some GitHub Actions. We spent a fair bit of engineering time on these, but not quite _that_ much. I would imagine Nucleus would have been a much nicer experience, but in reality would only have saved us ~20% of an engineer.

Maybe we weren't the target market! Just my thoughts though. Nice one with having one flat fee, I like that.
This is how it should be! That would turn ratings into something roughly useful.

As it is, I even had an argument with an Uber driver here, where he was saying that anything less than a 5 star rating is a bad rating. To me, a 3 star rating is "acceptable, not extraordinary". You don't get into "bad" territory until you're lower than 3.

I just can't go there, because if the Uber driver is correct, then what's the point of ratings at all?

Your unstated assumption is that dealing with climate change is a cost, not a benefit.

So, you'd expect these selfish countries to adopt the bits of the program, that benefit them, and stall on the ones that cost them.

So e.g. if you import fossil fuels, you'd adopt renewables faster as they are cheaper, more predictable, more reliable etc. If you import oil you'd move to EVs, if you import gas you'd move to heat pumps and so on.

Efficiency would be prioritised, as would things that clean up local air pollution.
Are they using "third world" in its original sense of non-alignment?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_World
Hmm I feel that explains a lot :(
What pricing changes? As far as I can tell they've all been coming down for the past few months. Currently the cost is pennies per day with gpt3.5-turbo. Though I probably would be using one of the locally runnable models if I didn't have a terrible integrated GPU or Hetzner had more affordable GPU servers. Probably not going to share the source because someone would just spam obnoxiously with it and end up getting my accounts banned too.
There's potentially some interesting research potential there given that you can peak more behind the scenes to infer how different inputs result in different outputs without the black box of RLHF at play.

For instance, if I want to generate some python code that uses a certain library and use the "write the code header + function def + docstring" approach with complete/insert/edit functionality how does the output change if

0. I vary the file header
1. I vary the presence of other functions in the input
2. I larp as the creator of the lib, a famous programmer, John Smith, Hans Mueller, Ivan Ivanovich Ivanovsky
3. (In combination with 2) - I prompt it in another language
4. I choose GPL vs BSD vs Apache vs other licenses
5. I specify exact python and module versions (right now it hallucinates functions which I don't have a lot, which is quite annoying)

It was trained on code and I don't like being abstracted away from code itself if I can avoid it/

I don't know how long davinci will be around as it strikes me as a risk to openAI - it may be being datamined as we speak for use in a legal case against them in the future, e.g. to show more direct evidence of having trained on data which they shouldn't have.

Practically speaking I will sometimes run a request in parallel between davinci, chat API and the web interface and compare the results.
hey, just like the lottery! That will free up those dollars in the general fund for all the important stuff such as roads (the minimum that can be done) and social programs that are thinly disguised patronage programs which perpetuate harmful circumstances to ensure a yearly line item in the now-increasing budget.

Hue works the best of all that I’ve tried for sure. But when we use Siri to control the living room lights, Internet access is needed. The Hue app still works if needed (most of the time) and the little no-battery physical switches keep working with Hue.

But it just doesn’t provide “value” compared to the cost, so I’m not going to rip it out but I won’t maintain it further or expand it.
Thanks!
Today we are leveraging EKS. We're also currently adding support for GKE.
They each have their quirks though and support different things. In the future I'd love to add generic, un-managed support for the reasons you state.

They absolutely are. My favorite antidepressant fluoxetine (Prozac) is unambiguously a PFAS.
With open source LLMs approaching Chat-GPT it makes sense for OpenAI to ask governments to erect barriers and controls on the use of AI. If AI can be deeply regulated then only deep pockets will be able to play.

Similar talk was heard about cryptography being weaponized and needing export controls, regulations, and protections.
I've noticed this as well. I now use a different slug or domain for the development page(s), and change it when the page goes live.
Yes but have you seen their pricing? 20 million a year will be the API cost for the top (freemium) iOS app.

They're basically using it to kill 3rd party apps and push their terrible mobile app.
Would be interested in more information about the runtime.
A valid assumption!
Sounds like a similar story to Amiga.
Totally fair question - we're thinking about this in 2 ways:

1. Continue to build out integrations across the toolset. For ex. we provide a built-in CI/CD pipeline but know that most mature orgs will want to use Jenkins/Argo/Github Actions etc. so we are building out those integrations (have Github already). Our goal is to give customers an onramp to get started and then once they mature, have the integrations ready for them to easily adopt the tools they care about.

2. Continue to expand the platform into other areas of the service layer. We're working on building out a service cataloguing module and testing module to make it easy for teams to understand what services they have, who owns them, scorecards etc. and to test them. The goal is to expand across the service layer vs. up and down the stack (DB or front-end layer).
The real serious RROD on the 360 was caused by failure of the solder joints between the GPU flip-chip and the substrate due to thermal cycling. Since this linux install won't ever utilize the GPU of the 360 in a way that would get it very hot (or if the number of thermal cycles is just kept very low in total, that failure mode may simply never be an issue.

And this is definitely the type of project someone is doing for fun anyway. Unfortunately even at idle the 360 isn't super power efficient, drawing ~70 watts or more, or else this could actually be a pretty neat project for repurposing a 360 as a NAS or something.
I don't think it's a problem per se, but it will cease to be a good example of a break in GPT because once it's "fixed", people will point to it and say "nuh-uh".

When really, the "fix" is "put the answer in the model". GPT didn't learn anything. It didn't generate the solution on its own. It's not indicative of GPT being able to solve that class of problem, just that one problem.

Which seems to be the entire thrust of GPT in general. It can't solve types of problems, it can solve existing problems if they have existing solutions.
Not only that, the total nationwide is essentially meaningless because of how many parking spaces there are in suburban areas where zoning prohibits the land from being used for much else or rural areas where the land isn't that scarce. Converting parking spaces into bigger lawns doesn't get you any more housing.
I agree. The Apollo dev arguably owns the user last-mile. It wouldn't be a stretch to offer users an alternative. Reddit was open source until 2017 (https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit) so most of the heavy dev lifting is already done. The major cost would be in infrastructure.
I'll take a stab at the other poster's meaning.

"Alignment" is broadly going to be: how do we ensure that AI remains a useful tool for non-nefarious purposes and doesn't become a tool for nefarious purposes? Obviously it's an unsolved problem because financial incentives turn the majority of current tools into nefarious ones (for data harvesting, user manipulation, etc.).

So without solving prompt injection, we can't be sure that alignment is solved - PI can turn a useful AI into a dangerous one. The other poster kind of implies that it's more like "without solving alignment we can't solve PI", which I'm not sure makes as much sense... except to say that they're both such colossal unsolved problems that it honestly isn't clear which end would be easier to attack.

I blame a lack of tools.

JS devs have been transpiling for years now and it works.

Python should have released a conversion tool that could automatically convert most stuff and identify the stuff it couldn't convert. This kind of directed upgrade would have made the process much easier for developers to actually accomplish.
Has any crypto exchange been sued by the SEC for solely providing Bitcoin and Ethereum trading? That might be the vast majority of the market Gensler references, which would make his 2018 statement both remarkably prescient as well as consistent with this complaint.
Unless you found another way to increase the speed that electrons move, the best way to have better speeds from RAM to the CPU is by integrating them on the same die.

I have a rainbow star trek shirt on right now. I support the gay and lesbian community in anyway I can. I will not take my children to see these movies. There are simply too many other options that do not push this crap on me that I will choose instead.

My kids have been at birthday parties with gay couples. Wanna know what questions they asked about it? None! Because they are children and have no concept of sexuality.

The studios are pulling out all this forced crap as soon as the strike is over too so obviously someone somewhere is reading the writing on the wall.

Parents have had enough of this crap and we’re not afraid to speak up.
> a corporate death penalty

So, no more Kevlar for police protection? The problem with the idea of a corporate death penalty is that it would shutter the corporation, shock the supply chain for critical materials, terminate the employment of thousands of people, and devastate their communities (e.g. because employees have families and those families consume food and stuff from the local economy which, in turn, supports other families).

It's obvious why we haven't adopted it as a viable punishment.
I know hn is not crypto friendly but crypto payments don't have this problem at all. Many of the heurestics used to defend against these problems too end up hurting we those in emerging markets including even cards issued by local banks. I hope merchants adopt crypto based payments more and more as an alternative.
But is the OP the best placed to know if the AI answer is correct? They're obviously not an expert, and even if something seems to work initially doesn't mean it's the correct way of doing it. Especially in the context of code, which is I think the majority of Stack Exchange's traffic, where you could easily have some code which seems to work, but has some bug/edge case/insecure practice/etc.
Rust also gives you choices. If, for whatever reason, you need to get rid of that runtime check, you can always use `unsafe`. Safety is the happy path, but you aren't locked in.
Many building/land-use codes require one parking space per expected adult occupant. So we can multiply by two.

Further, we are counting just parking at the residence, let alone the combined shared parking elsewhere. Plenty of roads has as much parking on either side as there is actual roadway
And despite that, still a top 3 most popular programming language on the planet. And another in that top 3 is the universally-derided Javascript.

There's a lesson in there to learn. Its unfortunate that the people who need to learn it most likely won't.
apparently the total vote count was 600 and something. definitely need excel to count that out sigh
There are certainly a lot of good practices such as ensuring any formulas are compatible with "fill down". It'd make for a nice standard, like MISRA C.

If you wanted automatic formula auditing, I'd recommend using R1C1 reference style so formulas using relative references are independent of the cell's location, then use FORMULATEXT function, and an array formula applied over the whole range you want to check.

Then you could be sure.
When you say "it can't do logic" what do you mean? "Logic" can be as simple as A=A, A!=B or as arbitrarily complex as you wish.

In my experience GPT-4 can solve unique logical puzzles, but I find it can be a bit clumsy with the context of more complex problems. What I mean by that is that it often can solve these problems with the right prompt, but you might need to ask it to think out loud and check its logic.
Hi author,

I really enjoy concepts like these that scavenge the most value from obsolete items / things you can get (almost) for free. (I used to build really cheap computers for kids who can't afford them.) I also love ideas that makes a special-purpose device available for general computing.

Have fun, and keep up with the good work! :D
As I said, a non-linear distribution can easily be fit into a quadratic curve, if logarithmic.

Multidimensional curves, ie lots of holes in the data, do make no sense to model for the initial pivot calc. Binary search finds them much better then.
The cost is similar to a hash table, almost constant with 2-4 branches, and mostly into cached data.

Slightly off-topic, but a little while back someone shared an article with a screenshot of a lot of famous developers desktops including Kernighan, Ritchie, Pike, Rasmus Lerdorf and a load of others (they are just the ones that come to mind).

Yes.

> This sounds like an assumption worth validating, because it sounds like an easy product to sell for lots of money.

Unfortunately, it's not so simple. I've worked in exactly this field, getting such institutions/companies to adopt this kind of software is ridiculously hard.
The environment has changed, we're not in ZIRP anymore. I just saw a LinkedIn post celebrating that their company went from 11 to 100 UI/UX designers in 6 years (at a bank of all places). I'm pretty sure what's about to happen to them, but it's indicative of the whole industry. Companies have over hired in pretty much every department because there was money and there was nobody there difficult hard questions.
People’s careers are being involuntarily set back already for reasons more physical and real than the risk of being scooped.

I’ve been scooped. It sucks. The scooped paper doesn’t land in a big journal. It certainly knocked down the impact factor of the publication and my profile. The fraction of cases where a lack of a high impact paper held back a faculty applicant is likely low (see https://elifesciences.org/articles/54097 and similar surveys). I’ve absolutely seen folks land faculty positions without a crazy impact factor publication. And as you say, it’s really hard to tell if the lack of a high impact factor paper holds a particular applicant back (see other factors I listed) in a particular case. So the link between high impact publication and faculty position is tenuous, and thus the link between being scooped leading to no faculty position is questionable, which means the risk of being scooped isn’t as much of an issue compared to work conditions.

The point you raise about practically and effectiveness of a strike presupposes that a union exists. And it seems that your claim that a research institute cannot generate as much solidarity as a university is a matter of belief rather than evidence seen elsewhere that research institutes have less successful unions than universities. Unless you know of many examples of this kind.
I saw a web comic the other day that I think was right on the nose.

Something along the lines of:

"AI will eat all of the developer jobs!!!"

"Nah. AI expects exact, well-reasoned requirements from management? We're safe."
Every time a crypto article is posted there are one of two people in the comments; those acknowledging yet another failure in a continuous display of cryptocurrency's blatant inability to be a valid currency, and those who mindlessly still think there's any hope for cryptocurrency to be a global currency.

Those who say that CEXs aren't part of the core values of cryptocurrency are right, except also completely ignorant to the fact that without CEXs, crypto's usability as a currency is practically 0.

CEXs have failed, hardware wallets have failed, soft wallets have failed, seed phrases are fundamentally problematic, etc.

Cryptocurrency won't ever be functional on a large-scale as a global currency, and that much is evident. It's not even a matter of opinion; the core idea of decentralization which "makes crypto great" makes it unusable as a currency for the vast majority of people- who would need to rely on some centralized authority in order for crypto to operate within the real world.

Anybody left in the space must just be hanging onto greater fool theory, that or has drank the kool-aid.

This article is a rare exception to Betteridge's law: "any headline ending in a question mark can be answered with the word 'no'".

In this case the article contents imply that the answer to the titular question is "kinda" or "at least to some extent".
I'm not involved, but here is an example I saw:

A user has been writing (bad) answers in broken English for months, and now suddenly writes answers in perfect GPT-esque style while the technical aspect is still bad.

The moderation burden for the second kind is much higher, while other users are much more likely to mistake it for a good answer. If the policy is "no AI-generated content allowed", should moderators be allowed to suspend the user?
