At first I was excited -- this is the second time i'm.seeing this advertised, and we are thinking through reliable API call-out strategies for louie.ai -- but then I got confused by the paper:

Is this really just tested against 95 API calls, and I'm guessing largely from just a small number of libriaries like pytorch?

More importantly, if anywhere near true, is there any reason to (so far) use this for use cases like OpenAI's around calling generic OpenAPI style libs (zapier scenario), known specific tools, or random python libs not in that dataset?

I'm really thinking 3 scenarios for our users:

-- python libraries we know they'll want to use ahead of time, like pandas and pygraphistry

-- Same for CLI, like AWS and az, and OpenAPI from and index

-- Long-tail that we don't expect, esp in python + js, so on the fly, with limited time budget for inspecting GitHub/Google/etc

So far, we generally find auto approaches too unreliable for non-hobbyists, and have to tune a bunch for each tool and database we teach louie. This line of research is def interesting to us...
What is your proof that he "deliberately" edited the text to change the entire meaning rather than just misstated it? As others pointed out above, this edit/mistake doesn't seem to negate his claim given that the two agencies were working together in this regard.

Regardless of if they were mistakes or not, there is more than enough found in the Twitter Files to be concerned about. It would have been much more interesting to hear Medhi discuss the substance of Tabbi's work. Instead he tried to discredit everything by cornering him on air with small details that Taibbi clearly wasn't prepared to fact check live.

Given the timeline of events in reporting on the Twitter Files, it seems likely that Taibbi et al were working long hours, digging through thousands of emails and messages, trying to piece together what was happening at Twitter over the previous 4 years. Typing one letter wrong in an acronym, among hundreds of acronyms they had been seeing in emails, doesn't surprise me. They were essentially live tweeting their research.

Also, Taibbi and others responded to this claim that he exaggerated the 3000 tweets as 22 million tweets. https://twitter.com/MikeBenzCyber/status/1644111356709289993. It was not 3000 tweets but rather 3000 URLs that they targeted for removal by removing any tweets containing those URLs. Seems like many reporters are making mistakes to support their preferred claim here.
It's what we aim to do at https://serpapi.com, making an API for everything that doesn't have an API.
Whenever I encounter a really strongly-worded, abrasive opinion like this I look for context. Does anyone know what relationship the author has with the ESM standardization process? Did they offer feedback that was dismissed by TC39? If so, I might be able to empathize with someone who feels that they have been left out or unfairly treated. Otherwise I think the tone distracts from the substance of the article and is also a lousy way to talk about others’ good faith efforts to move JS forward.

FWIW, ffworks (about $20) provides just that, a UI where you can adjust all the knobs and then (optionally) view the resultant script. You can also make droplets with it, so if you have repetitive, specific and/or temporary workflows it’s very nice to have.
Having lived in Boston, I can say that the city is way overpriced. You may argue that rent is in line with what people are willing to pay for it and that may be true. However, the city is failing its residents who have no protection against unreasonable increases (due to a state law) and new development is nowhere near strong enough. At least in cities like SF, Honolulu, and NYC you trade affordability for hire wages, natural beauty, and nightlife. Boston is nothing special in comparison.
Note that cf) will change everything up to and including the closing paren.

ct) (change to) will change everything from the cursor up to, but not including the paren.

But if you're trying to change everything in parens, you can simply use: ci(, regardless of where your cursor is as long as it's somewhere in a matched set. ci{, ci[, etc... also work. I find it pretty useful when working with code that uses a lot of those.
Back in 2008, I landed a very nice fiancée who was from Catalonia, and she came out to visit me in the springtime. Now I live in a suburb/college town in a major metropolitan area, and we rented bicycles and we took buses everywhere. It was working great, she enjoyed it a lot and had no issues with my modes of transportation. We went sight-seeing, we went shopping, we went to church. People would see us on the bus holding hands, and they remarked at how cute we were together.

Then one day I took her to The Big Downtown on the way to an art museum nearby. We made a transfer at the central bus station. It was Saturday. We stood in the middle of that deserted bus station and she looked around, going "where is everyone?" I said, "this is downtown; it's a business district and nobody lives here. There's no reason to go here on weekends." She was flabbergasted.

Because in Europe, of course, the city centers are hubs of activity, having mixed-use buildings with businesses on the ground floor and lots of housing above. I witnessed this in Barcelona. People live where they work. They also populate the lovely parks and promenades on weekends, because they live nearby, with no reason to flee downtown in those times, either.
Even from the perspective of keeping authoritative powers held within the reins of the people, it is better for rules and regulations to be legislated into proper laws by the legislature.

Legislatures are voted in by and answer to the people, at least ostensibly. Government agencies don't necessarily answer to the people.
I think you're overthinking it. Nftables may look more complicated at first, but once you start using it, you'll find it's much easier to maintain firewall rulesets with nftables than iptables.

If you want to learn it, go through the exercise of building out a ruleset by hand. Take the iptables ruleset of some server with which you're familiar (or use the Arch wiki's example iptables firewall [1] if you don't have a good example at hand), and convert it line-by-line to nftables. Look up in the nftables docs for an equivalent of each iptables line (you're looking in all the right places for documentation -- nftables own wiki has lots of good information, as does the Arch and Gentoo wikis).

When you install nftables, many distros will include a small starter config file at `/etc/nftables.conf` or /etc/sysconfig/nftables.conf`. Add rules to that file, and run `sudo nft -f /etc/nftables.conf` (or `sudo nft -f /etc/sysconfig/nftables.conf`) after each change to replace your old ruleset with your updated version. The `nft` command will check your syntax before applying the new ruleset, and if there's an error, it will instead abort and show you an error message that points to the problem line.

Then use `sudo nft list ruleset` to view your current ruleset -- you'll notice some cases where nftables has re-written your rules to use the canonical form of the rule (or substituted a constant for a standard value etc).

You can use the `iptables-translate` tool if you get stuck, but it won't really help you learn anything -- just as running some tool that generates a bunch of Rust code won't help you learn Rust. If you want to learn Rust, you have to write Rust code -- and if you want to learn nftables, you have to write nftables rulesets.

Good riddance. Building a second home for everybody so that they spend half of their lives there and waste hours moving between them each day is Evil.

It's one of these things that evolve slowly into absurdity, like the nerve in giraffes that goes up and down their necks because in fish it made sense.
Now you're just lying. Pump hydro scales better than batteries, although there are geographic limitations. Compressed air and thermal also scale better than batteries while not having any geographic limitations. Hydrogen scales beyond every else in terms of quantity, and this becomes even more pronounced once you talk about hydrogen derivatives like ammonia.

And you're consistently ignoring the part about not everything needing electricity exclusively. Any sort of heat utilization or recapture massively increases efficiency for some of those ideas.

Additionally the driver of rent is ultimately an arbitrage argument. If I can buy a home and rent it out for more than the prevailing mortgage costs then rents must drop and home prices must rise, otherwise people will buy more property to rent out. Likewise the opposite is true. Home prices are dropping, so rent should drop too. Except for the fact that leveraged home costs are rising due to interest rates rising quickly. The article mentions some regions are seeing lots of new supply on the market so they can definitely impact the dynamic - but I don’t think coastal cities are seeing any new supply to speak of, so I doubt seriously rents are dropping in those cities. I would expect as costs to buy go up, rents will also rise assuming supply stays constant.
I used Vim almost exclusively for a long time but am currently using vscode and I actually low-key hate the command palette. It's not always consistent (if you type return too fast you sometimes get a different command! Crazy) and I am never quite sure what it will execute, which means I lose time and focus waiting and double-checking.
This is super simple. Twitter put a deposit (think rental deposit) down on their lease in 2020. Instead of depositing $900k with the landlord they deposited 900k into a bank. In turn the bank issued a $900k letter of credit to the landlord who can use the funds in the same fashion a deposit could be used. This is done because LOCs are harder for other creditors to seize in bankruptcy court.

At some point Twitter stopped paying their rent and I’m sure there is a clause in the lease that allows the LL to draw down the letter of credit to pay the rent. Twitter also has an obligation the replenish the LOC.

It's even pretty good at doing this multi-lingually. I live in Indonesia, and there is a sort of dialect used by various people from Jakarta that basically combines Indonesian and English in a way that is quite recognizeable when you hear it.

The other day I asked ChatGPT to answer a question I had in Indonesian, and the answer was very formal (Google Translate generally has the same problem – the translations it gives you are way too formal for most speech). So I asked it to rephrase in this Jakartan slang it and did very well.
You can do that (I wouldn't advise it, there are still problems that are better solved by building explicit functions; but you can use subqueries and it would be safer) -- but most developers won't. They'll run the query directly. Most developers also will not execute it as a readonly query, they'll give the LLM write access to the database.

If OpenAI doesn't know that, then I don't know what to say, they haven't spent enough time writing documentation for general users.
I've been embarrassed by a Copilot code snippet that I proofread to seem correct, but was incorrect due to some subtle comparison logic.

I can only imagine the risks in professions that aren't dealing with logic that has a very finite list of options or where the answers AI produce require researched effort to validate.

It's probably worse in law if you're given a case reference as you're professionally supposed to read the document in substance to not be muddled by selective quoting, then if it's from a foreign jurisdiction you have to also check if it's applicable to you.

"I doubt SETI could detect even our own signals, when it’s encrypted digital data. I mean it’s just noise like any background signal"

Just because it's "noise" (ie. random/unpredictable looking) doesn't mean it's indistinguishable from other "noise".

Not all "noise" is created equal. "noise" can have properties that make it distinguishable from other "noise". You may have heard of "white noise", "brown noise", "pink noise", "gaussian noise", etc...

A sequence that appears random or unpredictable may nevertheless fall in to certain distributions.

I am not an astronomer, statistician or cryptographer, but would not be in the least surprised if encrypted communication could be clearly distinguishable from the cosmic microwave background radiation -- not only based on its distribution, but other properties such as intensity of the signal, how frequently the signal appears, and other much more advanced signal analysis techniques which are way beyond my expertise to analyze but not beyond the experts at SETI.
To paraphrase, this paper says "people who drank a triple espresso didn't do as well at sudoku". They gave pretty high doses of stimulants to test subjects and then tried to peel them off the walls and have them solve a short, difficult cognitive task.

The more practical question of whether popping stimulants can help people get through mountains of undemanding, tedious work is left as scientifically unexplored territory. Hopefully the research team will get a line on some Adderall and knock out the necessary papers soon.
The study might be flawed, but there are lots of opinions here from a lot of people who don't suffer from ADHD who really should reach out to us who do, and find out that it really is a '"disorder" or "disability" for the person experiencing it'

FWIW it’s extremely easy to get a domain despite having a dynamic IP with Google domains. I just have a cron job on my linux server that sends its dynamic IP address to a Google API endpoint.

I actually believe it would - it would inspire generations to work towards something greater than even humanity. Whether that resulted in beauty or disaster is besides the point. It might bring some greater sense of unity amongst humans, and direct our efforts for millennia.
I assume it sort of balances out, if properties don’t sell, they may go on the rental market. Another thing is that the renters pool has some elasticity built-in: renters may move with relatives or roommates/significant other.
It’s a letter of credit not line of credit. It’s basically a certified check in a way.

> I doubt SETI could detect even our own signals,

This is true. The signals we communicate with amongst ourselves would be too weak to detect using present equipment at any distance.

> when it’s encrypted digital data. I mean it’s just noise like any background signal..

This part is not true. A simple spectrum analyzer will show what radio bands are being communicated on and it's clear as day.

> we people are very soon capable of communicating using quantum entanglement,

This is very much not true. This is theoretically impossible. Unless we are very--very--wrong about quantum mechanics, we cannot use effects related to quantum entanglement to communicate.
If all these goes away, would there be more supplies of housing or less?

Does the person who take advantage of all these more likely to leave a housing unit vacant or make it available for other to rent?
People are still holding on with the hope that it’s going to rebound, after something that high profile it’s been tainted and it’s more associated now with scams. When the ”every day person” can’t find a use for it in their daily lives, there isn’t much value for it to grow beyond a specific subset of users, and that’s what FTX was trying to do, but ultimately failed at.
There will be plenty. Guaranteed.
Thanks! I do like that area. :)
Fine, with that specific term of art meaning then ignore my second post. I stand by my original statement that you can't trust it to "do much for you". Just replace the last word with "act consistent" or "act ordered". Per-address ordering is nearly useless by itself. And if you had a CPU that didn't guarantee that, you'd observe almost no difference.
I didn't know `])` but `%` to jump between matching brackets seems just as good?

My experience with Modafinil is that it is helpful for dealing with tasks that have been sitting in my Todo List for months (my most procrastinated tasks).
Not necessarily the most complex tasks, as I usually like doing those, but kind of tasks like cleaning my 3000 mails mailbox or writing a SOP for my business.
The 1-day modafinil will clear up so much of my todolist that I'll be free the next weeks/months to tackle the most complex problems.
And for solving complex problems, I find microdosing better as it gives different perspectives/POVS

> This is the complete opposite of my experience, and I’d be very surprised if there were any med schools where this was legitimately possible.

Well then your experience is limited.

Most people don’t work a job in medical school, so that’s time right there. Also the format of US medical school has changed considerably in the last 20 years. There is plenty of free time in the preclinical years, very few attend lecture (preferring to use a number of commercial review/prep product), there are usually only a few hours a week of mandatory team based learning groups and some hours of labs, this format is overwhelmingly common now in the US. Time management is also a large factor, some are better prepared to deal with the gauntlet.
Clinical years will have periods of intensity but usually for few week stretches, surgery clerkship might be intense, but psychiatry which is also at least 6 weeks will often be close to 9 to 5 with free weekends or even less. Time during residency training is extremely specialty and program dependent. Is your wife OB/GYN or general surgery, that’s very different than medicine, anesthesia or dermatology.

> Nearly all of her peers at med school had these characteristics, if somebody told me that 90% of doctors had some form of autism, I really wouldn’t have a hard time believing it.

Yeah whatever. There’s a lot of pricks and socially awkward people in medicine but a majority are primarily still interested in going into a service oriented industry working with people.

Just because some idiot with something to sell posts an apocryphal story about ChatGPT doesn’t prove your point.

Having worked in both tech and medicine your take is just selection bias and a limited view. Such a verbose response to say very little as well.
> So what if Apollo charged $6 per month [...] If only a third of those users paid, that would be over $350,000 per month. [...] I don’t know what the operating costs are for Apollo

Total nonsense. If you increase the price of something from $0 to $72/year, you are not going to keep "a third" of your users, especially when free alternatives exist (the official reddit app, using tiktok or whatever instead).

It was more like 30 years. '70-'85 was only the CP0-1-2 part, which was about 34 reactors. P and N models were built from '78 to 2000.

Also that doesn't include design. French design was done in the 60's, and resulted in UNGG prototypes which were abandoned in favor of buying a Westinghouse PWR license. All french reactors are based on that license.

Still an amazing feat, considering it's what provides power to France to this day.
Ooof, saw a team get hung up on modeling the application as a state machine once. No existing solution could support all the edge cases so they had to write a templated state machine engine first.. Yeah.. No surprise what happened to that later.
