The goal of an LLM, before RLHF, is to accurately predict what token comes next. It cannot do better than that. The perfect outcome is text identical to the training set.

Let's say your LLM can generate text with the same quality as the input 98% of the time, and the other 1% of the time, it's wrong. Each round of recursive training amplifies that error. 96% accuracy after the next round. 67% after 20 rounds.

There's no way for it to get better without more real human input.
Really interesting, especially the eReader idea! Thank you for taking the time to answer.
The sex was flat out implied in the messages we were sending, and it would be a crazy girl to go and ditch you only to have to get her own place to stay and book her own flight back.

Does that Solidworks makers license still exist? Does it include the CAM stuff for CNC machines?
The general idea is that a cup of rice is the main portion of the meal, and the rest of the meal is add ons (mostly veggies with a bit of meat). If the rice is just a side to the entree, then yeah, you're going to be eating less of it.

Was a nightmare making extensions in the previous version. The documentation was very scattered/cluttered between different jupyterlab versions. Don’t think I’ll be coming back to it for 4.0.
It reminds me of that movie Spy Kids where the villain kidnaps people and turns them into these teletubby like creatures.

Looking back, that was kind of some heavy body horror for a kids movie.

But yeah, “Snoo” is easily the worst tech company name for their employees I’ve heard. I had no idea Reddit had an internal name for their employees. This is way worse than “meta mates” or whatever Zuckerberg ended up coming up with.

The difference is perspective. You're right that grind is unavoidable, but it requires a big-picture perspective that the work is still valuable and therefore worth completing. If the wider circumstances have changed, then grinding because success demands grinding belies the fact that success will no longer be achieved through grinding. The key, in the beginning, is to attempt to reduce the amount of grinding that will be necessary by reducing scope as much as possible for what is needed to ship; the less grinding you need, the more likely you are to ship, and the more likely you are to continue to ship in the future.

I think you might be taking it a bit too personally. I live in New England, and people are very blunt and straightforward here. I've gathered, asking if certain things are covered, that the office staff (and even moreso the providers), genuinely have no idea how any of this shit works. People are to the point here, so some of them will tell me as much, and I learn it's pointless to ask those questions at time of care. Wait for the garbage to go into the system, garbage comes out, and then we can maybe talk... Because this is totally how legitimate businesses operate, and bears no resemblance to how the mafia would determine what you owed in protection money. But arguing with the front desk staff would be rather pointless. You just go along with the madness, just like citizens of the USSR did when everything was falling apart around them, and hope the whole thing crashes and burns sooner than later.

In other parts of the country, people are passive aggressive and it's extremely annoying. They won't admit they don't know, because it's all about appearances. Patients faced with such responses would become irate. What do you mean you don't know?! The workers hate themselves for not knowing, and they know this whole thing is a scam even better than you do. They hate themselves for participating in the scam, and so the cognitive dissonance manifests as rudeness towards you.
This quote is about a donkey or something falling off a cliff IIRC. Lol.
I think other LLMs will be used for commercial purposes in most cases. There are alread a few and i'm sure there's more in the queue.
The language is supposed to tell you if your thinking is broken. If a program is a logical statement, and your logic is impossible, the program should not compile. Reading dead memory or having race conditions should not be possible, yet look at security vulnerabilities today.

> AWS and Azure are datacenters too.

They are, but they are not data centers in the traditional sense of the term. The GP was referring to the traditional data centers as far as I understand.

> You're paying a x10 markup to make accounting shenanigans easier,

Whilst cloud platforms do allow one to accrue an eye-watering cloud bill by virtue of shooting oneself with a double-barelled gun, the fault is always on the user and the «10x markup» is complete bonkers and is a fiction.

As an isolated random example, API gateway in AWS serving 100 million requests 32 kB each with at least 99.95% SLA will cost US$100 a month. AWS EventBridge for the same 100 million monthly events with at least 99.99% availability will also cost US$100 a month.

That is US$200 in total monthly for a couple of the most critical components of a modern data processing backbone that scales out nearly indefinitely, requires no maintenance nor manual supervision and is always patched up security wise and is shielded from DDoS attacks. Compared to the same SLA, scalability and opex costs in a traditional data centre, they are a steal. Again, we are talking about at least 99.95% and 99.99% SLA for each service.

If one uses the cloud to spin up cloud VM's and databases that run 24x7 and result in an averags 10% monthly CPU utilisation, they are cooking the cloud wrong, they are wasting their own money and they are the only ones to blame the 10x markup that is a delusion caused by ignorance.

> but the technology is exactly the same.

The underlying technology might be the same, but is abstracted from the user who can no longer care about it, use a service and pay for the actual usage only. The platform optimises the resource utilisation and distribution automatically. That is the value proposition of the cloud today and not 15 years ago.

That sounds like it would complicate life, not make it easier? His wealth and power is predicated on him being the leader of the friggin’ Roman Empire. I don’t see that as an easy life.

Being an emperor and even trying to do a good job is damn near impossible in my eyes. Lot of respect for that. My tiny life sometimes overwhelms me already.
Fantastic idea. OpenAI knocked it out of the park with their fake typing animation, but they (we!) need to apply it to ethics work. Handwritten fonts, intentional typos, grainy c. 2010 avatars attached to messages - the possibilities are endless…
I got at least one glance when the "ew what" came out audibly.

What does this even mean, anyway, I've kept up with bleeding edge tech from a 3g connection miles from civilization. Do Marcs farts convey some AI-hype-prescience that filters into the SV air that you're missing out on?

What a "producty" take too. Knowing the hype-y buzzwords is more important than your engineers knowing what is cutting edge? Idk, I'm not in sales, maybe I'm way off base.

> I'm not on Reddit to make posts - about 99.999% of time I don't have anything to post, and those five minutes a year when I possibly do aren't today.

I hope Reddit did their due diligence in this. My feeling is that the people who found a 3rd party client and even paid for it are the ones in the 0.001% who produced the content for the rest of the people.

But we'll see in a few weeks if /u/spez starts forcing subreddits to open.
Ask HN: Are companies boycotting Reddit ads?
I presume that most of the profit for Reddit comes from ads. With the blackout their numbers should go down. I wonder did any company step out and said "We support Reddit mods and we will stop advertising on Reddit until their demands are fulfilled"?
Tinkering and iterating is key to progress.

The more “volume” of work you can do per unit time, the more you can be ruthless in culling work that don’t meet your standards.

From the outside observation, it will look like the person consistently outputs quality work, when in reality it is just a harsh selection process.

Funny, I have the exact opposite reaction. Solving for edge cases, for optimization, for bugs, is all so much easier.

The "infinite possibilities" means infinite wrong decisions. Infinite ways that the decision you just made will prove to be a colossal fuckup in 2 months' time.

anime isn't a product but more of a category. you can also track shows you watch on netflix (or anywhere else) on platforms like trakt or even imdb. though i wouldn't be surprised if netflix at some point adds (or at least beta tests) a social profile like steam and notifications like "your friend is watching X" or "your friends are watching horror, see our great selection bla bla bla".
Why would you not?

Australian public hospitals have first class surgeons. In this case they recommended surgery. They're not doing it for financial gain, why not trust their advice?

Your alternative is to go to another surgeon for a second opinion but you can only do that in the private health system, and that will take months or maybe longer and cost you alot of money.

No, businesses don't care. In fact, businesses probably prefer the official app and website because the experience is consistent and predictable. And it may be good for businesses in the long run because Reddit can show more ads and more relevant ads by unifying their users onto a single platform.

If a business does come out to support the boycott, they're probably doing it as a feel-good publicity stunt to take advantage of angry users.
When the 3rd party apps go, that's the last time I use reddit on my phone.

Well it seems like maybe that's something you should have thought of before taking on that much debt?

Maybe you should consider a subscription model.... wait, no.
Great article! That take on the study kinda disputes your authoritative stance on the issue, though, and for good reason IMO

That they did best with the font sets that they were most likely to have been exposed to in the past does not necessarily mean that those fonts are the best for everyone.
You’re describing every follow-up podcast on the matter.
The conference just happened a week ago and I believe this is an original talk. It might be a while until a recording is published.
As I understand it, the question was whether humans learn language starting from a "blank slate" or whether there's some meaningful structure built in (that's therefore common across all human languages). Chomsky's argument was that children are not exposed to enough example sentences to learn all the rules they learn. It's an argument from the information content of the corpus made available to the language learner, irrespective of the capabilities of the learner.

Therefore, if we're able to do the same thing by simply applying more resources, that would undermine his argument in a way that doing the same thing with a vastly larger corpus (whatever the resources we throw at it) doesn't.

I should note that this is based on recollections from 20+ years ago and no serious engagement with the article at hand, so, uh, appropriate salt.
Interesting that music works for you. I’ve noticed that besides just white noise, music significantly degrades my work results. I might produce similar amounts of content line-wise, but the solutions are of much lower quality when I listen to music. As a result, I only listen when work feels too painful and I’m okay with decreasing my output.

They haven’t taken it down because it continues to draw in traffic.

It’s trivial to debunk because the story was a hack job with no sources to begin with: the burden on proof is on the accuser in this case.

They actually had a raffle and gave away lumens to people in non-trivial amounts.

I think I still have the bitcoin I bought with lumens in a wallet somewhere, might be worth 100-150€ nowadays.

If you had a Keybase account and a lumen wallet, go check if it has a balance =)

I've seen the classic examples of AOP being used to log or authorize, but you can easily do that without "cluttering your code" by using the decorator pattern? Decorators are also nestable (when you want to both log and authorize).
You don't have to set up another instance - this site works for anywhere in Australia (or the world - but maybe their traffic lights are too different.

We switched from Altium to kicad and it was a good decision. However, we weren’t really successful to port projects from Altium to kicad. So, we still need a Altiun license. I am sure there are features in Altium that kicad is missing, but for our application - power electronics- we haven’t missed anything so far.

In my native Finnish tongue we do use, interchangably, expressions "tiedonjano" and "tiedonnälkä" which directly translate to thirst/hunger for knowledge. Even "tiedonmuru" is a crumb of knowledge or data, as in bread crumb.

So I have very little experience with elixir, but I appreciate the effort to bring static typing. With that said, I find the use of parenthesis pretty hard to read. As in I need to spend more time than a quick glance to grok what's going on. Maybe it's because I'm not familiar with the ecosystem, but coming from a typescript, python, and go background mostly, I find this

negate :: ((integer() -> integer()) and
(true -> false) and (false -> true) and
(a -> a) when a: not(integer() or boolean()))

harder to reason about quickly than say this

negate :: (int -> int) & (true -> false) & (false -> true) & (a -> a)
when a: ~(int | boolean)

Is there a reason that syntax was chosen? Is it just for showcasing purposes or is that basically just how the language works?

The whole system was designed for long battery life and standby time. That’s why it didn’t have the backlight LCD, had an enormous battery (reading https://support.apple.com/kb/sp140?locale=en_GB, it only delivered 5W, tops, though), and used static RAM.

I guess this expansion used dynamic RAM with on-board refresh logic, but the page isn’t clear (to me) on that.
It generally applies to all commercial medical insurance plans regulated under that Affordable Care Act. Most clinical care guidelines only justify colonoscopies for patients within that age range unless they have unusual risk factors; outside that range the risks and costs outweigh the benefits. Colorectal cancer is very rare before age 45. The procedure itself carries a small risk of bowel perforation, as well as side effects from sedation.
