This is certainly not a "no processing" policy.

Where the line is drawn as to what's "generative" and what's "AI" may be blurry, but they haven't just banned traditional transform operations.
The fun thing is that it doesn’t even matter how smart you are to begin with beyond a surprisingly low threshold.
It's unreasonable to give up on explanations and deem something "not understandable" when we've been doing this thing for 3000+ years called mathematics, where it's exactly explainability that we seek and the removal of doubt.
The only other entities that we know of who can't communicate or explain what they're doing are animals.
I second this as a consumer of a lot of MOOCs.

Bad video as long as you can read everything on the screen is okay.

But poor audio is an absolute bummer. Cannot tolerate this at all.

This doesn't make rational sense to me. I think it is probably because people have access to decent audio for much longer time than they have had good video.

It's guaranteed to increase. The question is how fast will it increase, and will it increase more slowly than expected.
You have seen it more than that, because it is linked in the comments of almost every Elm-related post on HN.

Evidence that STEM people can think clearly about this, when their paycheck doesn't depend on pretending otherwise.

No reason to assume bad faith. But some folks get very literal. And if you have a legitimate question, that's one of the things editors are for.
You are speaking complete rubbish. Trump didn't have a right to those docs, and he knew it. And speaking of dictators, Trump did try very hard to overturn a fair election he lost.

Indictment says Trump lied, schemed to keep highly classified secrets
The former president faces 37 criminal charges. His longtime valet, Walt Nauta, faces six charges.
Former president Donald Trump stashed sensitive intelligence secrets in a bathroom, his bedroom and a ballroom at Mar-a-Lago, according to a scathing 49-page indictment unsealed Friday against him and a loyal servant who is accused of lying to cover up his boss’s alleged crimes.

The grand jury indictment tells a story of hubris and hypocrisy, describing a wealthy former president living among neck-high stacks of boxes with classified documents scattered inside them, sometimes literally spilling out of their containers. In the prosecutors’ telling, neither Trump nor any of his aides or lawyers appeared bothered by the sprawl of sensitive papers until government agents came calling. Then, the former commander in chief allegedly set out to hide some of what he had.
There was only one live bomb found and he did intend to use it.

> Kaczynski replied Penthouse was less "respectable" than The New York Times and The Washington Post, and said that, "to increase our chances of getting our stuff published in some 'respectable' periodical", he would "reserve the right to plant one (and only one) bomb intended to kill, after our manuscript has been published" if Penthouse published the document instead of The Times or The Post.

Don't do victims of terrorism a disservice by suggesting a mass murderer deserves the benefit of the doubt as to whether he has any qualms about reneging on "deals" made with a society he doesn't respect. His calculus for who got to live and die hinged on factors as arbitrary as nitpicking over which periodical was willing to publish his bullshit. He was a fucking Narcissist to the extreme, who would waste no time coming out of retirement at the next perceived slight.

"Innocent until proven guilty" doesn't apply to the fucking Unabomber. Bombing people is kind of his thing. He proved it, what, 16 times?
I just bought a 75 inch TV and strangely HATED watching anything on it. Hooked up a soundbar (something I said I would never waste money on) and I can't stop binge watching.

who knows who Kaczynski would have ended up as a person if not for the horrible, abusive mind control experiments that he had to endure through in his early adulthood.
> My Mac uses almost an order of magnitude less power than the PC and I keep the PC powered off.

Either you are not measuring power consumption correctly, or there is something very wrong with your PC.
the problem is most standardized tests aren't good at really finding the extremes of the spectrum. There are some proposed solutions to this, whatever government actually implements them will reap the rewards of finding and recruiting the best talent available and nurturing them to reach their potential.

basically what you are talking about is the difference between someone who is very smart, one in a thousand, that can score well with lots of studying compared to a one in a million type genius capable of winning math Olympiads. Most standardized tests lump these people in the same category
If I'm being honest, i have to agree. This is like, the least interesting sound I've heard today. It's just a beat, like i bet some things could sound cool eventually but it's just ridiculously generic and kinda derivative. As well i can tell it's ai generated, it's got the same kind of stilted, just holding on to tempo, that most voice generation sounds like. Like it's mere moments away from entirely falling apart into machine screeching and creepy whisper sounds. Maybe there's better examples but being introduced with this clip has really put me off the whole idea
You can scrape the data today. If they lock the access (a little bit of a false dychotomy, they could limit the access as well, but to simplify the argument), there will be nothing to scrape - you will still be able to access the old dumps, however.

> The promise of automation was to have machines do the things we don't want to do, so humans could have more time to do things we enjoy.

But why exactly should that happen? By which mechanism? Every single company automates in order to increase their monopolies and profit, to generate more shareholder value. There exists no other mechanism, so obviously we will never do anything other than that.
We know Tesla cannot match Mercedes. We don't know whether or not Mercedes can match Tesla. Mercedes isn't reckless enough to let untrained fanboys play with defective software in two-ton vehicles on public roads.
I don't have an idea on how to do cascading OBS instances. I should write some software to make this easy though. I want to make 'self hosting' as easy as possible. I think https://github.com/glimesh/broadcast-box will fill that gap for now.

For my own usage I run WebRTC servers and have them 'replicate' the video traffic. LiveKit did a write up on this with some good graphics https://blog.livekit.io/scaling-webrtc-with-distributed-mesh...
Something like this:

Hey ChatGPT, write a prompt for midjourney to generate a realistic photo of XYZ with ABC parameters.

Then plug it into Mid-journey.

Technically the LLM isn't generating the image, and I agree, but I think their point is rather obvious and we need not be intentionally obtuse nor needlessly pedantic.
Interesting, will check it out.
As someone from an IIT, an average student in IIT would possibly pass for an average student in aUS state college (UT Austin, UCSD etc), but the geniuses in the Indian student population are over represented in IIT’s. The top student in my batch, decided to do independent research from his home, published a blog post that Ian Goodfellow praised in a tweet and now switched fields and is pursuing a PhD in mathematics from Stanford.
Shocked by how many Trump Cultists are on Hacker News.
> but in terms what it means , you may as well ask an AI to pray

The generative process is based on a combination of learning and randomness. The random part doesn't mean anything, but it's clear that it is far from just random notes. Do you think human music always starts from a meaning? It's just lucky accidents that sound good. We even retrofit explanations post facto to our actions, we can certainly compose music first and assign a meaning later.

Around 150 years ago classical music had a big dilemma - should music be related to concrete things or abstract? Should we put a story to music? So everyone wanted to know "what was the program?" (program==original author's meaning) sometimes composers would just hide it in order to instigate people to use their imaginations. It didn't matter what meaning the author originally assigned to it, better to try to hear it with beginners ears.

It's worse. Even in case users did care about decentralization, such solutions are less reliable, not more. Subjective moderation, rule changes, rug pulls.

right after that sentence, you have -

"A Freedom of Information Act document released by the Central Intelligence Agency in 2018 states that "a considerable amount of credible circumstantial evidence suggests that Theodore Kaczynski. also known as the Unabomber, participated in CIA-sponsored MK-ULTRA experiments conducted at Harvard University from the fall of 1959 through the spring of 1962".[26] Chase and others have also suggested that this experience may have motivated Kaczynski's criminal activities"
All attempts have been through job boards.

I see, may have to explore the referral approach then. Thanks mate.
> the fact is that less people take the IIT-JEET (a couple of hundred thousand), than some of our exams here - like for law school and medical school

Do you have some source backing this up? A cursory search reveals that more than 850,000 applicants attempted the IIT-JEE exam in 2023. Total available college vacancies slightly more than 16,000. This number would be around 5000 for the OG IITs.

For US medical colleges, for 2022-2023 admission cycle, 22,712 of the 55,188 students who applied to medical school matriculated. Perhaps these numbers belongs to a specific US region?

I would say that attempting JEE is now more or less a cultural thing. 90% of the applicants (pardon the number out of thin air) sit the exam because that's just something you do after finishing school.
English is not my native tongue but I believe that in English "the" preceding a name means something specific, something near a proper name, while the absence of "the" means something common.

Just a theory but I would guess that investors are probably interested in the bottom line which may be impacted by tax incentives or lack thereof for having their multi-million dollar investments into buildings occupied by {n}% of staff for {y}% of the year. I don't have anything to back this up, just vague memories of articles discussing the effect Covid-19 had on real estate.

I believe there have also been real estate crashes predicted for large office buildings which could lead investors to hold on for dear life and double-down on utilizing the buildings for a few years. Otherwise people could just try to get out of contracts, write-down losses and sell their buildings fully embracing WFH.
we could go with untested, still inefficient fancy-shmancy geoengineering which may cause even greater disasters, or maybe we could go with re-engineering our energy systems, with solutions that have been used for decades, if not centuries, at the same time maybe also rethinking a bit the way we live and consume. But, no, where's the fun if we don't destroy an ecosystem or two?
The Tesla, who claimed they’re full self driving next year, for more than half a decade now?

Cool, let’s wait.

I think it shows how little you understand the problem, to call it a “stunt”.
Skeptical but genuine question here: if Tesla's Level 3 system is more advanced, why don't they have authorization to release it? And why does the article quote Tesla as saying they only have a level 2 system?
The article reports that the M2 Ultra is basically even with a 4060 Ti in OpenCL compute which they refer to as a mainstream card. It is more a notch above entry level. The "best of class" 4090 is actually 2.5x faster. But again, this is OpenCL so who knows how the two compare in a more relevant benchmark.

Regardless, wccftech is far from reliable. IIRC, /r/amd blocks links to the site.
I think the exciting thing with Apple silicone and "AI" is inference, not training. Due to their unified memory, you can potentially have enormous local model inference. That's potentially much more expensive on a PC with a GPU having its own memory.

Apple have an opportunity, if they 2-4x the memory on the entry level devices (not beyond the realms of possibility), to make local inference a thing available to all.
> Because we like music for the fun of making it, and the shared emotional connection felt with the artist (whether it's real or not, knowing a human wrote and performed a piece allows you to imagine this connection).

> It still has the advantage of a much larger memory pool.

Why do you think NVIDIA doesn't "just add" "more memory"? To its $40,000 H100s, which top out at "just" 80GB?

The answer isn't price segmentation.
Thinking about depth:

Using it to present stacks of information (version history, undo/redo chain)

Using it to render background information that doesn't need to be swapped into the foreground to be useful - the architecture/module that the code you're working in serves, the remote services that fulfill certain commands, the test coverage available to you in this module.
"Leftists" offended by these sentiments are most likely centrists. The goal of neoliberalism (read: the DNC) has been to shift the left to the center. This has been their objective for years. See: Obama, Biden, the Clintons.

Makes sense. I avoid driving so much I forgot how that would sound. I didn't even think about being able to drink and drive as an advantage of avoiding driving until now. Other advantages:?avoid cops,insurance people,mechanics,car salespeople,gas stations, tow trucks, work/nap during commute. Of course, not for everyone.
Wow, go figure. Thats pretty much what I was envisioning.

AFAIK none of the desktop Macs are thermally limited.
the thing is, there are several of such disasters happening every year because of climate change, and given that climate change is man-made, we can infer that those disasters are too. Pretty tragic for our species indeed, but even more tragic for the other species that live on this planet.
I would expect extracting out more of the meta-logic via GPT, and showing relevant panes dynamically.

If you get an error, automatically search for the answer and propose the change.

If you add a new flow uncovered by tests, propose the test.

Generally, have panes that are dynamic to what you are doing, and tightly couple them.

I could imagine looking at different zoom levels of a code file, folder, or architecture, and working primarily on abstractions, approving / rejecting the resulting proposed edits.

Strategic coding more akin to a game like Supreme Commander or Planetary Annihilation.

Secret courts have no place in the United States. The constitution guarantees you the right to defend yourself against an accuser (5A). You are not allowed to be in that court when you're accused. Also, the government is prohibited from unreasonable search and seizures (4A). When they get a court order, you're not allowed to defend against. FISA has never been before the Supreme Court, as you need a defendant. Since the court is secret, and no defendants allowed, it is never going to the supreme court. If you're accused, and go to trial, FISA evidence remains secret, and discovery is never given to your attorney. When you're on the receiving end of this, you will beg for your rights. The government has unlimited power, and resources to destroy you.
While i do agree generally about key changes, i think the point is that it's just an example of something that sounds _interesting_. It's not just key changes, but all the little chances that an actual artist takes during creation, the things that sound good to some and bad to others are exactly what makes art, art. The change being witnessed isn't the loss of key changes, but the loss of everything that sounds different or interesting, in favor of a sound that is generally palatable to everyone precisely because it does not contain anything interesting.

Well. I've been using python personally since 2007, and it never broke with update (I still occasionally run scripts written for 2.5). Also, I am working as a python backend dev, dealing with hundreds of systems (we are deploying 270+ systems and supporting another 340 user built docker images built on top of py library), and no problems there either. In my previous job, I was doing deployment to 4000+ kiosk computers, and still, no problems with python breaking.

What was definitely problematic was the update from 2 to 3. Another problem may be dependency management (people not pinning dependencies). But the python itself? What does it even mean? Interpreter not starting?
Whether IIT are "that smart" or not like 1differential's comment talks about is irrelevant.

IIT have prestige. If they care about leveraging that prestige and incentivize their graduates to some lifestyle choices there's ways to do it.

One example is the elite French "école polytechnique" (think the #1 IIT equivalent in engineering): tuition is waived, you even get paid a stipend as a student... But if you don't serve in French public service for 10 years after graduation, you have to repay it.

https://programmes.polytechnique.edu/en/ingenieur-polytechni...

> There are no study costs for French students, on the condition that they work for the civil service for at least 10 years within the 20 years following their graduation. Otherwise, they must repay the tuition fees

That would work as a "brain drain" tax.

That sounds like something I could get an LLM to do. And then of course I can do it iteratively until all the code has been laundered. Maybe that's how Microsoft can justify training on all the GitHub data.
People have tried this, they're called binaural beats, and they don't seem to work for the most part. I mean, not in the sense that you could engineer sound to invoke very specific effects in the brain consistently.
