GPT-4 does not "imitate" a "brain"; it does not function like a brain, nor is it even really analogous to a brain in any useful sense. What it imitates is human speech.
Old British joke https://youtu.be/Px4qJwxP3vI
Not saying we should start eating things alive, but most of the animal kingdom practices it. It's weird for current humans, but that's about it.
They also don't need to contribute to the Linux kernel. Why would they? They don't support Linux on their hardware in any official capacity, otherwise projects like Asahi wouldn't need to exist.

And playing devil's advocate, Apple has open sourced their macOS and iOS kernels, and has some open source presence[1]. None of their contributions are crucial parts of their business, of course.

> Automation and technology should be reducing the need for most people to work.

I think it does. Many people working office jobs are barely doing anything, esp. compared to manual labor in hellish factories just 100 years ago. And, for that puny amount of office work, we live so much better than people 100 years ago.

Also, it's currently possible to work less by just not buying top of the line consumer option. It's perhaps harder in the US, where such options does not exist, but other parts of the world have e.g. specific brands of cheap, crappy cars you could buy and work less in consequence.

A higher punishment doesn’t not mean higher ethical standard.
Animals do lots of things we consider unethical and unacceptable for humans to do.
It is really strange which drug-related subs are NSFW and which aren't. Like why not alcohol related subs?

I think they probably all should be marked NSFW but it is weird.

I'm willing to donate to a site that offers the best parts of reddit with a fast, clean and usable interface. That might be lobste.rs in a few years.

Reddit was good for like 6-7 years (I was a member back when there was only one 'subreddit'). Turning point was the redesign into a web 3.0 mess that broke stuff like 'find in page' or the back button. Then the gradual monetization, app prompts and SEO that made the side less and less usable. I don't know if it was profitable, but there are definitely alternate paths they could have taken rather than completely gutting and selling out the site for maximum engagement and user figures.
> All that matters is whether there are oscillations in the suspension that go up to 1800 Hz

Surely you care about more than just oscillations, for example how exactly the suspension compresses during breaking. If you've seen slow-mo shots from high-speed race cars riding a curb, it can be quite violent with lots of movement.

In this article[1] about Formula 1, they state they sample vibration data at 200kHz. This is then filtered to a lower rate for logging, but getting say 5kHz out of 200kHz raw sensor data doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

They also mention they collect about 30MB per lap of sensor data from more than 250 sensor, and laps are typically around 1.5-2 minutes long. If one assumes a 2 minute lap and 250 sensors, that's 1kB/s per sensor on average.

None of the time that libertarian beliefs could protect civil liberties is it ever taken seriously. It exists solely to launder corporate protections and deregulation.

> I don't believe that there are any alien vessels, intact or otherwise.

Me neither, but as the saying goes: “i want to believe”. Guaranteed there’s nothing more than a guy that’s either crazy or marketing a book.

> But I would imagine that a superpower with global reach and a stealth program could (and would) gather craft before the countries where they were located knew they were there.

By traveling to china or russia and snatching ufos from right under their nose? I doubt it. I think if anything remotely alien would visit earth everyone would know.

I don't as I don't believe in vegan diets as being equivalent to carnivorous diets. I think meat should be significantly more expensive especially in the US for environmental reasons but I don't think humans can be healthy without animal proteins.
This is a good plan.
Sentience is essentially the ability to use your mind as a CRUD database and apply contextual information to each interaction with it.

When you apply that reasoning it’s hard to argue that any living animal is not sentient.

This is a great start to recognising the obvious, that we are limiting our definition of sentience by our own inability to understand other animals.
I particularly enjoy the Big Boy Burger:

Indulge in the ultimate burger experience with our BIG BOY
Burger at Royal Burger! Our AI chef has curated a masterpiece with a juicy smashed beef patty, perfectly seared to lock in the flavour. Topped with cheese and cheese TWICE and served on a brioche bun, this burger is a symphony of taste and texture. Get ready to savour the future of burgers with our AI-inspired creation!
Sure - I think there's a possible long game here where we're able to technologically engineer our way back to producer status.

Bio-engineering is one route (KloraDerm), but I could see alternative routes that are essentially just chemical/material sciences.

I think it's probably an incredibly complicated supply chain we'd have to really work through to make sure you can synthesize all the required components without going through something living, but we know that producers exist - so there's hope.
There's also the possibility that we extend our moral obligations to sentient beings that are not part of our species and not subject billions of them to unnecessary suffering at our own hands.
Am I missing context?

The post by "@jaffathecake" reads like a truism. The main thread is indeed where the main thread business like (re-)layout happens, not just Javascript.

I have no idea why that would cause OP to act like a Texan boomer just spotted a gas station clerk wearing an N95.
At least you can tell the users who are using new.reddit or the official app, and bully them for lack of elementary taste.
> I miss the Reddit that was good.

Reddit was never good.
This is kind of an old discussion. I'm perfectly happy eating meat but equally recognise that vegan diets are perfectly feasible for almost everyone. If not vegan, then vegetarian (preferably with a premium on animal products to reflect their impact etc).

A nice example of this is omega 3 and similar: it is actually synthesised in kelp and works its way through the food chain to us with fish as an intermediary. It doesn't have to be that way, it just is right now. B vitamins are a similar story.
But isn't your example demonstrating a tradeoff between freedom and quick painless death, whereas an octopus that lives its life in captivity only to also be eaten alive has to suffer the worst of both worlds?
WebAssembly may bring change here. See the recent HN discussion on emerging Gui libraries in Rust: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35722681
Because in this case - they're not being devoured so someone can survive. But for the sheer gall and thrill of it.

Meanwhile, humans have a huge empathy problem in regard to animals (and other types of species) - perhaps its most categorical failing, and the driver for the most pressing crises of our time, in fact.
This is an appeal to nature fallacy. Rape, homicide, and infanticide happen in nature, is that a justification for us to do it?
Congrats Jerry! Tackling a hard but very real problem that every organization is going to run into eventually.

As those people like to say, that person could just go to the Ukraine and get medical care there. Bonus points: wouldn't get shot up as a collaborator.
I’m fairly confident that at least certain employers who have deep pockets and are obsessed with non-competes (like that EMR) company would spend many, many times someone’s annual salary to ruin them for daring to try to work in an even tangentially similar industry (such as wearable health hardware) before their non-compete expires.

That specific company is delusional about where their profit comes from; they (specifically their founder/CEO and the surrounding execs) think it’s because of their awesome “ultra secret” technology and not a combination of regulatory and inertial lock-in. Like, they literally think their MUMPS codebase and the non-relational database backing it are what make them great, rather than something they’re successful in spite of. (And it does, to the degree that it encodes a huge amount of domain knowledge—derivative domain knowledge, based on the law, regulation, and insurance policies…)

Anecdotally, there's a certain armed conflict in Europe, where peace movements of any kind are in the absolute minority – on either side. (Oh, progress, I guess…) It's not just the US.
Most likely. It find it funny when aliens in movies almost always land in the us. It may be the world’s most awesome country, but wouldnt at least some of these aliens be curious about german beer or south korean food?
Also not to mention the site regularly fails to even serve a page! Like it's a bunch of text guys, this isn't that hard in 2023. No reason reddit should be going down as often as it does.
I'm unclear as well. TFA states:

> The review also evaluated the potential welfare implications of current commercial practices involving these animals. It recommends against declawing, nicking, eyestalk ablation, the sale of live decapod crustaceans to untrained, non-expert handlers, and extreme slaughter methods such as live boiling without stunning. It also includes suggestions for best practices for transport, stunning and slaughter.

But this reads more like additional recommendations than required by law under the new classification.
5 years could certainly be improved upon. Those devices cost north of 1k now.

I‘ve been an iOS dev since iOS 4, and have always been put off by this sneaky way of planned obsolescence. Older iOS releases do get security fixes, but only a tiny fraction of the fixes newer versions get. I don’t find this applaudable.
Countries besides the US also have states.
Because there is a difference between being eaten in the wild by other animals who survive on those and humans expoliting the wild life or marine life.
Because we can do better. I don't know about you but I hold myself to a higher moral standard than a shark.
how do you debug/profile webassembly?
If you can afford to pay $2800 more so people can't see what you are doing on your iPad, you are probably in the minority. It's really cool, but really expensive. I see this as like the Macintosh Portable.

Also, there's a good chance that devices like this have a strong future. Just like you could argue that a Macbook is a descendant of the Macintosh Portable, the fact that lots of people own macbooks doesn't mean the Macintosh Portable was a success.
> Why can't SEC work with Coinbase before suing them? Again, Coinbase has been seeking help from SEC for years.

How has Coinbase been "seeking help"? They are a company, they should be going to the SEC with all of the particulars of each of their investment items and saying to the SEC "We believe we have met your standards of fiduciary duty on these items that appear to be securities, have we?" They shouldn't be saying, "Hey, SEC, are these things we're selling securities, and thus need a higher standard of duty of care? Tee hee, we can't figure it out on our own, as we're just a little company with thousands of employees trading billions of dollars a year. Until you get back to us we'll just assume that they aren't securities and won't bother meeting the higher standard of care."

With more and better models released, getting access to OpenAI's API is becoming less interesting.

What is interesting is having access to GPUs (cloud or real hardware). The world is divided in "has access to enough GPU power/don't has access to enough GPU power".

My prediction is that this will get worse for a while.
US 'cannot say conclusively' what happened in dam breach - Kirby

Yeah right. lol. And that is a clear signal that Ukraine was behind it. But as always the warmongers will try 4d chess to convince you Russia did it, like it blew nord stream, attacked crimea bridge, and shot missiles into Poland.
This doesn't sound crazy to me.
It's not _all_ marketing. They make good products. They have managed to convince consumers that it's both necessary and worthwhile to pay extra for spit and polish. Like buying a Rolex instead of a Timex.
This is very enforceable for the smaller group of actually profitable streamers. They're trying to make it more difficult for people to reduce their dependence on twitch.

If you have ever moderated a subreddit you'd understand why mods wind up with heavy handed approaches.

Even moderately sized subreddits are a lot of work, especially of a post gets to the front page. You can't have gourmet experiences at fast-food scale. When you have a long list of reports to go through, and you have been moderating long-enough, your decisions are based on heuristics rather than nuanced explanation or checking the post history of some (non-subscribed guest) snowflake Redditor who think their spicy take is insightful and/or you're taking away their 1A rights when they haven't bothered to read the rules of the subreddit they are commenting in. Subreddits are not a townsquare open to all-comers, they are very large clubhouses with distinct rules and norms - mods exist to enforce those rules.

There's no time for - nor an upside to splitting hairs on whether a commenter is a transphobic nazi[1] or merely matches the archetype. When modding, false positives are vastly preferable to false negatives since mods value their time more than the individual commenters who get caught up, and I don't see this changing even if you were to become the mod

This happened to uh a friend the first time they got really high on weed.

It's just a trick your brain is playing on you man. I was playing Rainbow Six Siege with friends, and during the 30 second setup phase I played for what was surely several minutes doing all the things you do with the drone and looking everywhere and planning all sorts of things, and then I looked at the timer and only 5 seconds had passed.

Your brain's interpretation of time passing is a completely made up fiction for it's own benefit. Police officers report seeing shootings going down in slow motion, watching individual shell casings drop to the floor and reading the numbers stamped on the bottom.

When this kind of time dilation was scientifically investigated, we found that what actually changed was your MEMORY of that time, not your cognition during the dilation itself. You aren't actually experiencing things quicker, your brain is just timestamping stuff poorly. Your brain's time tracking system just gets out of whack, and that screws with your consciousness because it relies heavily on timestamping of things.

I use it to provide persistence to an in memory counter server. It is written to in batches of 4096 (total 25k/second). For restarting he server, the server gets a signal, stops listening, flushes the remaining writes to SQLite, and exits. On start up, it reads the SQLite then starts processing accepted reads. It was a couple hundred lines of go and makes the server much better operationally. It is not involved in the request servicing, just this back up persistence.
System76 doesn't ship reasonable screens (they are all 144Hz 1080p):

The only exception is the Bonobo, but it comes with a discrete GPU, so its battery life + weight are going to suck. Also, its keyboard is off center.

Most of the star labs machines have low resolution displays, but I can find nothing wrong with this one. If you choose AMD, a reasonable config is $2600, which is comparable to Apple. However, they are only building 10,000 units, and taking preorders, so it might be unobtainable:

https://us.starlabs.systems/pages/starfighter

The purism offering seems OK except that it is a 10th generation intel, and those were extremely bad, even by recent intel standards. Maybe they'll get an AMD refresh out the door with the same ergonomics.

The HP has an off-centered keyboard and trackpad and a 1080p display.

So, of those four vendors, there's one model that's vaguely competitive, but it's a limited production run pre-order.

I’ll preface this by saying that I have never known war in my lifetime and that I absolutely don’t condone it.

That said, isn’t the point of war also that it’s horrible and barbaric? If war isn’t that anymore, won’t it be much more frequent and casually started as a result?

Again, I’m absolutely not saying it’s a good thing that war maims and kills people, but I see these side effects as a deterrent. There is a component of terror to it and that’s what makes it even worse.

If it’s enlisted professional killing each other, or even robots destroying each other, it can go on for much longer. And how do you determine the “winner” in that case if you can keep feeding robots into the fight, it’s never ending I’d think.

The 386 is the minimum viable processor for a lot of applications. 386SX class machines are the baseline for the modern x86 architecture: 32-bit internals, real MMU capabilities. It could probably handle a lot of legacy Win32, Win16 and DOS industrial apps. The heat issues could be a concern but lower power and solid state storage could still be a reliability win when replacing aging hardware.
Wittgenstein's anti-intellectualism was quite well-known and he voiced his displeasure towards intellectualism during his time.

Really, this is the root of a lot of his philosophy. It was to prove intellectuals wrong. For some of us, he was right. Reading any philosophy book, we joke that it takes a philosopher 20-some odd pages to get to the punchline. Why? No idea. Philosophers love to hear themselves talk and love to meander.

Yeah, this vision from TFA:

“Every person will have an AI assistant/coach/mentor/trainer/advisor/therapist that is infinitely patient, infinitely compassionate, infinitely knowledgeable, and infinitely helpful. The AI assistant will be present through all of life’s opportunities and challenges, maximizing every person’s outcomes.”

…will more likely turn into an indoctrination and compliance machine under authoritarian regimes.
The plant matter of a fruit is still alive, though. At some point you're drawing an arbitrary line that separates the living things that are okay to eat from those that are not.
It isn't competing with Google on Blink development, it's simply adding support for the new JPEG image standard (which they're probably going to have as a system codec anyway in that case). Note that they've had HEVC playback support in Edge before Chrome.
Yes, follow the lead of the hippies. Every generation's deadbeats get a rude awakening that Social Security is prorated based on number of quarters you worked over your life, usually coming up short once it's too late to go back and earn them.

You can't just couch-surf to 65 and collect a free paycheck unless you're also playing SSDI fraud (which has its own earned-income credit system too, IIRC).
We do hold ourselves to a higher standard, but we typically have actual reason to do so.

Vegan moral arguments almost entirely rely on empathy. "The animal suffers therefore it's wrong".

And they miss the mark almost every time because they're literally thinking emotionally instead of logically. Human suffering has actual consequences and we're basically always worse of if we don't reduce it. Where that isn't true such as in times of war we happy promote it.

Those arguments are far weaker than you would expect because empathy doesn't actually weigh as heavily as you would expect on real social level decision making. Instead, practicality always wins and animal products are far far more valuable than the nearly non-existent harms of animal suffering.

> I don’t really follow. There are billions/trillions of these creatures who are eaten alive every year in the wild. Why is it so significant that humans also do this?

That tells us little on our moral obligations towards them and, for that matter, towards our fellow humans. Animals also murder other members of their own species, is murder hence ok?
