An article from the journal Lung[1] points out that Post-Viral Anosmia isn't exclusive to Covid[1]. It occurred with other viral infections, which is why you can have someone with a bunch of seemingly Covid-like symptoms but not have Covid. There's also this lit review[2] showing that destruction of the olfactory epithelium can occur in Parainfluenza virus, Human Coronavirus, and Rhinovirus.

I think it's a case of not noticing because they agree with the directionality of the MSM's opinions, so it doesn't stick out to them.
This sounds like a missive violation of EU laws.
I guess there's no need now to introduce backdoors for the FBI
$21,000 per year ouch.

That'll buy you about 13 RTX 4090's outright.
I think every subreddit should have created a community on a reddit alternative, like lemmy, kbin, etc. and actively promoted it as a "temporary" replacement. This way, Reddit waiting out the blackout risks losing marketshare to the alternative.

Right now, that risk is very low because the alternatives didn't seem to have picked up enough critical mass, especially outside a few big topics like technology or news. Without an alternative picking up steam and stealing eyeballs, Reddit doesn't have an incentive to come to the table and can easily wait this out.
I suppose an aquarium is just a small pond.

Floats to the top or sticks to everything.
I have an RTX 3060 on my desktop, and my friend has an RTX 4090 on his desktop turned server.

We are both running Stable Diffusion with Dreambooth etc., Llama (well, he is running Llama, I am running 4-bit Llama), Deep Floyd and so on. Both machines are running Ubuntu, don't know what distros are good for servers.

Incidentally, NVDA closed at 429.97 today, an all time high (it was 108.13 last year, after they were banned from selling A100s/H100s to China - it has almost quadrupled in price in a year).
They say it is always easier to con intelligent people, because they don't think they are capable of being fooled.
The author talks about both money and variety voices/exposure for more people.

Here’s what I think they miss:

Netflix went from being part of the long tail to becoming an incumbent. Netflix then tries to find more big hits to maintain big incumbent winnings. And incumbents have been in many cases doubling down. But that’s exactly because the long tail is eating the “medium tail” that incumbents used to profit off of alive.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t use the long tail to bring in money. Though a competitive long tail will restrict just how high your margins can be.

The long tail threatens Netflix now (if only to an extent: something like Squid Game becoming a hit in the US would blow the mind of someone in 2006 and seem like a perfect example of long tail content being able to not just be economically viable but potentially turn into a huge winner).

But it threatens Spotify much less! They thrive off of it! The music world isn’t a bunch of services with exclusives trying to be winner take all, most content is across services.

Similarly it threatens Amazon, AliExpress, Etsy, etc, much less than Netflix.

The money in a “produce content for a small niche” was never going to be big for an individual producer, the money in that was going to be in being a successful aggregator, but in a competitive market you can only squeeze that so far.

But if the long tail was dead in terms of people being able to get exposure and views and listens then the YouTube and Spotifys of the world and the big labels would be raking in cash like they used to. They’d have a product without much competition and they could charge more for it from all sides, and take more off the top from artists too. Instead they’re in a pickle because it’s hard to compete with free and the free long-tail is getting bigger and bigger and bigger in terms of popular appeal (like things like youtube videos of people playing video games, which simply didn’t used to take ANY viewership away from TV shows).
I don't think the strike will have much of an effect because there is a end date.
While this report seems like a convenient thing to cite when someone calls me paranoid for putting a pebble in my shoe before going grocery shopping, its reccomendations are less than comforting.

>[The intelligence community] "should develop a multi-layered approach to catalog, to the extent feasible, the acquisition and use of CAI across its 18 elements."

The problem isn't that this data isn't organized well enough...

I'm not sure what these 18 elements are but found something involving HIPAA which uses the same phrase:

Yes. What headers would you suggest? I'd like a table format that'll still look good on mobile without needing to horizontally scroll.
You're right, I was wrong - thanks!
This is really cool. I've been doing something in a similar vein at https://github.com/sgodwincs/lamda_calculus_formalizations, though the difference being I'm using Lean and trying to prove certain properties of the languages (type safety, normalization, etc.). Of course, compared to unification and stuff you have, I only have very simple additions like natural numbers and binary product types (though the proofs still are hard for me!). Working on finite product types now and it's an absolute pain to even define it in a way that Lean likes.
But CUDA kernels are everywhere, not just in high-level frameworks. Look at DeepSpeed, for example, which is used in training LLMs.
I just give up and use commercial services. They’re usually willing to do residential or recommend someone who can.

For tow trucks just search for ones that can do a semi. They’ll know who to call.
The thing to understand about z/OS is it has two (well, more than that but it's complicated) different environments.

The first environment is typically referred to as the "MVS", "TSO/ISPF", or "classic/legacy" environment. This is the green screen stuff, where you've got datasets instead of files, access methods instead of drivers, where everything is record oriented and to create a new file (dataset) you have to tell the system things like block size and record organization and other low level details. Did I mention that basic configuration tasks and scripting is often done in assembly? While there have been efforts to create remote access methods and increase ease of use for this environment, it remains the reason mainframes are generally considered a very difficult platform to work with, and why mainframe systems programmers can make a lot of money if they really understand the details of how all of it works.

The second main environment is z/OS Unix, which is technically not a different environment from the first, as it is not an emulation or virtualization of Unix in any way. It has hooks way down in the base control program (mainframe term for kernel), and system calls are real supervisor calls, etc. The major difference is the file system is a typical hierarchical Unix file system (implemented as a VSAM dataset if you are looking in from the outside), and the user interface is a POSIX interface.

Now when I say POSIX, I really mean it and not at all in the way you may interpret that word if it came from a Linux distribution maintainer of some kind. It is a lightweight, bare bones Unix, and everything is manual for the most part. It's got your regular set of command like cp, cat, less, grep, ls, vi (no included vim), awk, etc...but it doesn't have a shell that somebody growing up with Linux would consider modern or user friendly. The shell is an IBM implementation of a POSIX shell with some c shell extensions and whatnot that roughly date it to somewhere in the late 80s / early 90s in terms of ease of use. No colors. No tab completion.

That being said, there is a relatively recent clang/LLVM C compiler, and the main benefit of the (some would argue excessive) adherence to an old standard like POSIX is that a lot of classic Unix programs will just compile and work without too much trouble. You may have trouble with more modern tools that rely on Linux specific details, but if a tool (like vim or bash for instance) was around in the 90s while commercial unixes were still dominant and POSIX still mattered, then it's usually an easy port.
They also said that they couldn't find pricing when it is listed on the page you linked to.
This is a good summary of most topics in AI/ML. The only thing that it seems to by missing (or maybe I'm just not seeing it) is a section on generative AI for images and video (DALL-E, Stable Diffusion etc).

They do cover LLMs which is generative AI for text though: https://github.com/microsoft/AI-For-Beginners/blob/main/less...
Not sure about Heroku, Render, and Vercel, but Fly.io doesn't resell AWS/GCP.
I'm not sure there's an apples-to-apples comparison to be made between the social and business decisions of an ostensibly-savvy 50+ year-old billionaire and the often-predatory loan schemes aimed at young adults with no leverage in the world yet.
What would it take to get a honest investgation within US? The fundemental issue is why would PRC entertain US lab leak propaganda narrative? Let alone submit to basically weapons inspection tier scrutiny that no sane sovereign would permit. Keep in mind "lab leak" hypothesis was conjectured by PRC netizens along with US Fort Detrick lab influenza and Wuhan military games conspiracy theories. Obviously US politicians and "intelligence" would conveniently converge on the theory that looks bad for PRC. Is US going to cooperate to address the other PRC conspiracy theories and let WHO investigate USAMRIID? The realistic answer is covid will become distant memory and origin will be relegated to conjecture based on domestic politics.
This used to be a common scam in certain developing countries in the 90s and early 2000s.

Scammers would call random numbers until a woman answered and would start by saying "Mom?" and if she said something like "Michael?", they would go "Yes, mom, it's me, Michael, sorry the connection is really bad and something is up with my phone..", because of course their voice would sound different. They would claim to have gotten into a car accident, and that they would be in serious trouble (low rule of law in those countries, problems resolved directly between people) unless they sent those people money right away.

I forget how exactly they expected the money to be sent, maybe it was mobile phone credits or something along those lines.

IIRC the scam was often done by convicts in prison who would get ahold of cell phones somehow and had all the time in the world to try to run that scam.
Viable human embryos made the old fashioned way are fairly easy to create or come by, what is the difference? Except having more flexibility in who can have children?
Same with locksmiths. Where there's clients in need of emergency services, there are always grifters willing to take advantage of desperation.

(Use AAA for tows and vehicle lockouts, never a locksmith you find on your own.)

Unlike roadside assistance (which works), the one thing I can tell you not to do for emergency plumbers is trust a home warranty service like American Home Shield. These sorts of "services" pay contractors subpar and flat rates, which deprioritizes your claims and incentivizes corner-cutting. They will not deliver miracles like finding you a plumber on Thanksgiving.
Oh, Google knows. They don't seem to care. At all.

I can share some of what Google told me:

- Have you read our privacy and security resources?

- Have you updated your password?

- If you think that a crime has been committed, contact your local law enforcement.

- Please use Google Help Centers if you need help with a Google product.

So, you know, I took their advice. I contacted federal agencies and cybersecurity investigators. I detailed the vulnerabilities, and how each vulnerability is being exploited in multiple ways. Why? Over 2 billion people are impacted by Google's negligence on this. Because Google Search is the default for iPhone Safari browser, the blast radius is even greater. So, Google is poisoning Google and Apple (and every other service that uses Google Search).

It's Google's arrogance about their own negligence that was most shocking to me. I just didn't expect it. I sincerely believed Google maintained a baseline that was above this mark. Joke's on me.

It'd be great if Google employees were required to take their own cybersecurity training on Coursera. Additionally, if Google could update their unit testing and integration testing regiments to include testing for these vulnerabilities (to ensure they are not reintroducing them), across services such as Search and Ads and JS and Tagger, that'd be... expected from a top corporation such as Google.

Additionally, if any Google employees can offer more meaningful guidance on how to report ongoing security vulnerabilities beyond the fluff I've been given please do share. I'm happy to file a formal report.
That's a great one, I should read the docs more often...

Two very useful ones I just saw on there, for undoing movement mistakes:

Doesn't really matter in the context of this tangential chain. Not sure why you're asking me as I haven't even discussed that.

Hey FanaHOVA, big fan! We were syncing from multiple sources and will be consolidating that in the near future (most likely via RSS).

We're using whisper and GPT-3.5 with the new 16K context. Eager to hear more feedback from you. Feel free to follow up with us at ian@scribbler.so & phil@scribbler.so
Outperforms ChatGPT and GPT-4 in generating api calls? Or in every type of querying? It's exciting that this is open, looking forward to trying all of this from end to end!
My favourite myth is that I still believe it's possible to write code which operates totally out of L1 and L2 cache. Not just tight ASM on bare metal: C code or similar, compiled down, to run under a modern UNIX/POSIX os on a multi-core host.

I have never explored HOW this would work, or WHAT I would do to achieve it, but I believe it, implicitly. For it to be true I would have to understand the implications of every function and procedure call, stack operations, actual size of objects/structs under alignment, optimisations in the assembler to align or select code which runs faster in the given ALU, none of which I know (if I ever did, certainly not any more)

But still: I believe this myth. I believe I know somebody who has achieved it, to test some ideas about CPU's ability to saturate a NIC at wire-rate, with pre-formed packets. He was able to show by binding affinity to specific cores and running this code, he could basically flood any link his CPU was capable of being exposed to, for a given PCI generation of NIC speeds available to him. (as I understand it) -But that assumes that walking off L2 cache would somehow make it run SLOW enough, to not be able to do this.

So I think it remains a myth, to me.
In my very first comment I said that not all people are like that. Yet sadly, to this day, I constantly do meet people making casual racist comments when I go to the south. And when I say the south, I include the state where I was born which is one of the states that fought against the US government in the civil war.

Not all people are like that but there is an issue that a lot of people are like that.
As another person said, that sounds like a pretty significant violation of EU law? MAYBE Reddit could argue that self-deletion isn't a "request for removal," but I don't think that would stand for very long.
This assumes there isnt an army of unemployed people with a power fetish using reddit willing to lord over top subs that would be brought back by force. Aside from deleting bad words and over the top vulgar opinions in clean subs what does a mod do besides sit around staring at their screen?
I recall a lot of protest and negative feedback. I was supporting an open-source API library for years and stopped. They just ignored everyone.
For comparison, how does tcp/ip/http handle that?

Anyone can set up a forum and host it. You are relying as always on points of centralisation, like domain names and hosting companies as a way to take down illegal content. If it is illegal enough, like CP, terror etc. police will cooperate internationally and infiltrate it. FBI has seized so many BTC it isn’t funny and it doesn’t get more

Do you have specific links / sources you had in mind? It's certainly apart of our roadmap to include other medium.
Does this work well with tests? For instance, if you click a button in a test, do you need to do something special to ensure the async update has happened before checking assertions on the HTML contents?
This is sarcasm, by the way.
That will make my eye super tired. Just looking at a word doesn't need much effort but focus on very precise location in between two character is very different. Try it with for example iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii or |||||||||||.

Actually, the presence of a cursor makes it much easier. Place a cursor and looking at it vs Place the cursor by looking at a place are very different.
Step one is realizing that the establishment lies to you.

Step two is recognizing that the other guys are more than happy to lie to you too, or lie to themselves, and have an even easier time of it due to lack of vetting.
Langchain is a terrific project that tries to teach agents how to use tools using prompting. Our take on this is that prompting is not scalable if you want to pick between 1000s of APIs. So Gorilla is a LLM that can pick and write the semantically and syntactically correct API for you to call! A drop in replacement into Langchain!

Sorry, saying mass doesn't matter is a false assertion. A 1000lb trailer will absolutely react differently in this scenario, including getting pushed up and out or yielding/crushing.

NHTSA also has to weigh the cost of compliance. Cars also could have stronger A pillars, that way the burden of compliance is placed on the one at higher risk.

The article tries to make it a big conspiracy by Big Truck, that bothered me. Trucks are easy to hate on, but efficient transport over very long distances is a tremendous strength of the American economy.

Good point. This was the original release, we now also have Apache-2.0 licensed models finetuned on MPT-7B and Falcon-7B!
The cheap bunch of LED stickers that I bought 3 years ago has been so good with this. They were sold as "6mm Round 10 Colour Dot Sticker Circle Sticky Self Adhesive Label" on ebay.

LEDs on the electric toothbrush shining brigher than a thousand suns? Put stickers on them.

LEDs on the dog water fountain illuminating the whole living room at night? Put stickers on them.

The funny thing is that the LEDs are so bright that they still shine through the stickers. Except that now it's at the brightness level they should have had in the first place.

Put priority on local models and aims for data analysts. Both SQL syntax and a structure of the database even for big project are simple and users will ask relatively simple questions. I bet you don't even need "large" language models for this.
Agreed. It's not going to get better. You can't force changes on users who generate and manage all the content on your site.

This is indeed good, but for now it is just a small step towards restoring their previous documentation transparency.

Before Zen, AMD published for each CPU the very useful "BIOS and Kernel

> So Fed's rate rise provided a windfall for those holding government bonds, furthering inflation.

Silicon Valley Bank was insolvent because the value of their government bonds declined so much after the Fed started raising rates. They were taken over by the FDIC after this came to light and the bank no longer exists. I find it hard to characterize that as a windfall.
