>Part of the problem is that people don't know what they want. Another part of the problem is that people ask about really advanced things that they are not ready for, and where they don't have time to dedicate to learning the basics.

Yeah I do totally see that, and my idea is to make a resource that gives you the value that you extract out of it, although it's a fine line between making yet another boring textbook and a resource that is engaging but also informative.

>For your own interest ... what would you start with?

This is where I am a bit torn, because on one hand, I'd love to jump in to cool stuff that people learnt _how_ to do but were never taught the ideas behind them. For example, integral substitution seem to be taught in this rather boring way where you're told to mechanically execute a bunch of steps that people just need to memorise to pass their exam.

I'd love to jump right in and derive the idea of a substitution from the Reimann integral definition, and go into some detail about the intuition behind it. And then perhaps I can explore more calculus like the idea of limits(which are typically another terribly explained) and then move on to Taylor series expansions etc.

But at the same time I don't want the barrier of entry to be really high, so mabye starting with the idea of derivatives, and then approaching higher level topics might be a better structure?
I did't like the blog post, as the argumentation is a bit weak. But the VM is nice!
I’m not saying it’s definitely correct but there’s a silos argument for Assange having committed espionage.

What charges on similar scales and severity would these harassed Chinese be accused of?
Not op but also a very happy kagi customer. This is usually hard to answer because search results is very dependent on what is searched. For me the quality of results instead of a bunch “top 10 libraries to use with react in 2023” kind of results is what sets it apart for me. I can prioritize what kind of results or sites I want stuff from, I’ve been surprised multiple times by finding a random blog post from somebody working with some tool/library that I’ve search for.

I’d suggest to give it a try, it took less than then 50 search a month limit for me to jump onboard
Both of those tests report real SDR brightness of 500 nits, or 600 for 10% sustained. The QN90B test reports 1200 nits and 2000 (!) nits respectively: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/qn90b-qled

Real scene SDR brightness is all that matters for use in a bright room, as it represents the overall brightness of the screen when playing normal content. HDR brightness on the other hand is only observed in certain scenes of particular HDR content mastered to use it - not to mention that such HDR content is more likely to be consumed in a dark room to enjoy the darker details not present in SDR.

I think the limiting factor right now on those new OLED sets is thermal throttling and power limits. But all is not bad - it shows great promise of near a future where self-emissive panels have food brightness.

It's not just about the haunted house. Just look at the DALLE-2 living room pictures closely. None of it makes any sense. And we're not even talking of subtle details, all of the first three pictures have a central object that the eye should be drawn to that's just a total mess. (The table that's being subsumed by a bunch of melting brown chairs in the first one, the i-don't-even-know-what that seems to be the second picture, and the whatever-this-is on the blue carpet.)

Engineering schools?

My top 4 would be mit, Berkley, Stanford, and caltech.
This is really cool to see.

> Large: Takes up to 1.7GB for a single sequence in LLaMA-13B.

> Dynamic: Its size depends on the sequence length, which is highly variable and unpredictable. As a result, efficiently managing the KV cache presents a significant challenge. We find that existing systems waste 60% – 80% of memory due to fragmentation and over-reservation.

This mentions improvements for throughput which is great, and it mentions memory savings. I'm a bit confused how 80% of the memory could be wasted by the KV cache when the vast majority of the memory is usually holding the model itself?

How much memory savings does this translate to effectively for say a 30B 4bit model?
That well is probably contaminated still.

Bought a new house in a semi-rural area, had only ever been farms, zero petrol stations ever existed within at least a 4-mile radius, and mostly downhill.

Yet the water test found MTBE [0], Methyl tert-butyl ether, a gasoline additive.

Had to maintain and replace an activated carbon filter in the water system ever since.

The only possibility is some farmer decades ago dumping oil (IDK if it is in there, or gets in there from piston-ring blow-by) or leaking gasoline somewhere in the watershed.

Awful.

They give you one option, but people like that option. It isn't annoying, it isn't buggy, and it works roughly as well as the web interface (which you can also use on mobile).

>If you really want to do innovation and you don't need the resources of a huge company to do so

Practically anything at the cutting edge of research is incredibly capital intensive. So you're either loaded to start with or you have to spend most of your time collecting money rather than doing research.

If you're a researcher who cares primarily about their work, the freedom you have by working for a large company or a government institution is immense. Personally I will take a generous paycheck and resources provided for me so I can do actual work over trying to add zeroes to my own bank account. Many scientists make this trade consciously.
+1 on this. something like openvscode integrated would be awesome
The trick to effective min-maxing in social contexts is to make sure people can't tell you're min-maxing.
Eh? It's a service. It represents a domain operation (or group of operations) that hasn't been coalesced into either a value type or a transient entity, both of which are also models without database tables, both of which are preferable to a service if they fit the domain.

None of this says that putting business logic into a separate class to the thing that happens to back onto a database row is correct because of single responsibility. That's a fundamental misunderstanding of the SRP.
He was unshockingly backlogged six ways to Sunday so if you’re looking for a deal that won’t be it. I can look if you still care.
You're not going to get even close to Midjourney or even Bing quality on SD without finetuning. It's that simple. When you do finetune, it will be restricted to that aesthetic and you won't get the same prompt understanding or adherence.

For all the promise of control and customization SD boasts, Midjourney beats it hands down in sheer quality. There's a reason like 99% of ai art comic creators stick to Midjourney despite the control handicap.
rtings "real scene" brightness is a better measure than 100% sustained - I think some brightness limiting is acceptable for a fully white screen.

Still, that's 500 for the those OLED sets vs 1200 for the QN90B.
A lot of commercial projects based on SBCs are relatively niche. It's very common to see things like lighting controllers, hobbyist stuff, etc, that's in the run size of 500 at the very most, basically be a raspberry pi with a custom hat in a custom plastic case. That can sustain a medium sized business.

Designing and fabbing your own boards doesn't always make sense until you're on a version 2, or 3.
Are you seriously suggesting that companies host their mission critical Git repositories on a Raspberry Pi that they then have to manually manage?
I can relate somehow, I once did create a lot of software from scratch and idea to the total production, and didn’t even have a raise! So I learned the hard way that no matter what you do, all your efforts will be gone to someone else, your success is theirs and your failure is yours only, so I started my own business!
But, as with airplane doors (but in the opposite direction), if the door was designed to open outwards then you couldn't open it under pressure no matter how hard you pushed
I think the idea is that more money and resources should lead to more investments in workplace safety. It's not a very strong idea but it's somewhat persuasive.

I'm guessing just saying "Having unsafe working conditions is unacceptable" would lead to the question "A lot of companies have unsafe working conditions, why investigate just Amazon?"
Why? I think this is something extra on top of their usual bonus plan.
Not to mention this whole LLM thing people are talking about...
Are tankies Marxist? I would assert that they'd have to be - and Marxists aren't making the case for their ideas out of some sense of moral superiority. The good ones aren't anyway. China (and other communist states) aren't morally superior they are simply superior: they have harnessed the power of capital accumulation that capitalism provides while retaining the ability to move to more advanced relations of production once appropriate.

China is "winning" and will continue to win, not because they are more virtuous, but because they can move on to the next thing while we're stuck with end-stage capitalism and all the rentierism that comes with it, apparently forever.
Apparently not 8-/

One trend I see is the offers of "hybrid-remote".

Which of course is totally NOT remote. If you have to relocate to take a job, it isn't remote work.

With the current lack of job stability/security, I find it hard to believe that bvery many (especially senior) personnel are willing to uproot their families and move across the country...

But this is exactly what the biggest of big tech is asking for...
> There was some semblance of openness and creativity in most of the previous walled gardens.

Yet the original Reddit, Usenet, was right there as open as decentralized as can be and they flocked to the walled gardens anyway. Kids those days.
I can't find the link anymore, but this reminds me of the guy who set up a Raspberry Pi to continuously play random Simpsons episodes as a kind of TV channel to watch when you cant decide what to watch.
My wife could not do that. Does it mean she's a bot?
Well they’ll have data on non-Tesla users now too. The current market leader in the US has about 17% share, so even if Tesla eventually becomes the biggest auto maker, you’d still expect at least 75% of cars to not be made by them. They now have charging data on those 75%.

More profitable than the data though will be selling the charges. The rates they’re charging at Tesla Superchargers are far in excess of what they’re paying for the electricity.
> It only affects your ability to get loans no?

Not in the US. It also affects your ability to get housing, to get jobs, and other things.
I take 60-90 mins naps, whichever day I can. I feel refresh and can focus more.
Berkeley is not that hard to get into for in-state students (much easier than CMU or Georgetown). But, yes to Stanford/MIT/Caltech.
This is an amazing - I remember that PC port and you can even buy it on GOG today.

That is an interesting question. If Tesla has a network of cars collecting real world data that can be used to train ML I suspect it might be more than $20 per Tesla in the future (they can sell models to other manufacturers). Maybe not right now but more a future thing.
I really hope they improve their pricing/usage plan. I wasn't that impressed with the results when I first tried Kagi out, but was planning on giving it some more chances down the line. Sometimes it takes a few tries before a new tool really sticks for me.

Unfortunately they ended that sort of trial usage with the new payment plans. I'm already wary of starting any new saas payments, and one where I need to worry about how many searches I'm doing per month is a non-starter.
It's so funky to read this as a European.

I've probably never looked at the edu section of any CV.
> Just because you don't think it is useful for you, doesn't mean that it is not legitimate.

That's because it isn't legitimate at all.

> It is what happens in the banking system all day long.

What you've shown me is even worse as this isn't even regulated in any shape or form. We both know that what is happening with Tether is fraudulent as it is backed by nothing and not regulated. ^0, which means that any USDT on AAVE is pretty much assumed to be pumped up by Tether and AAVE is facilitating fraud.

I wouldn't trust a system that holds over $110M of funds that gets 'stuck' because of a bug and users are unable to take their funds out. ^1

How is loaning tokens backed by fraud a legitimate use case?

> I've given you a legitimate use case and all you can do is yell ponzi. That doesn't help your argument at all and makes you look like the greater fool.

So your solution is to use a system that is loaning tokens backed by nothing, propped up by Tether that is backed by nothing, which creates an even bigger decentralised unregulated ponzi scheme?

3 - The “value” is higher, but can you actually do more with it now than you could five years ago? Hasn’t the entire community given up on buying things such that they know pretend that was never the goal?

Without any real way to convert back and forth into real money, what reassurance is there that the price even means anything when every single holder is incentivised to lie and transact with themselves just to keep the numbers up?

How can a global system capable of five transactions a second ever be integrated into “the world’s financial fabric”? Side-chains seem to just be a great way to centralise around more unknown entities who may or may not run off with your cash.
One amazing thing about America is that there’s a ton of resistance to the government coordinating where certain things should be grown (e.g. grandparent poster) but an extremely high tolerance for the government coordinating where certain things should be grown (e.g. crop subsidies) even though I just said the same thing twice. It’s all in the framing, I guess.
Hopefully you can see the absolutist nature of his comment and come to the realization that crime is a universal aspect of money, so of course any form of money would be a facilitator of it.
> Guys aren't quite so built to be huggy friendly and we tend to be more defined by real working relationships.

Do you think this is really true, or just how it is in some societies? There's been a lot of talk about suicide rates in men and lack of social connections. Maybe this is just wrong, and as others have said, pure social connection without having to "do" something is the point.

A lot of old guys out there dying alone because they can no longer "do" and don't have an idea of just how to "be."
Given the recent trends in "UX" I would regard that as a a feature though.

> if you ever want to convert your project to something commercial, I would still consider raspberry pi and beaglebone

Last time I checked, Broadcom forced you to integrate their compute modules into your product because there was no way they would sell their CPUs alone, no matter how many of them one would be willing to buy. That is not normal in the industrial world. As an example, the Allwinner H3 used in a lot of boards is $5 each for 1000+ pieces at Alibaba, or $10 at Olimex in the EU in single quantity. It's also well documented. https://linux-sunxi.org/H3

Things may be different with the RP2040, which is a very interesting part, but that chip has nothing in common, except the name, with the ones running the bigger Linux capable Raspberries.

There is this funny thing on wikipedia where highly educated people contribute a lot to articles in their field then accidentally end up on the wrong page and turn into the worse possible childish troll.

I'd imagine it's because it takes so much effort and gas to asymptote up to 40mph or whatever, that they can't fathom electing to stop and do it all again. Most tractor trailers have a large enough engine to handle going up hills with common cargo at highway speeds (exceptions exist, of course). From what I've observed, most RV's just don't.

I spent several months living out of my car+tent in national parks/forests and often referred to them as Ruins Views. Breathtaking scenery in those national parks, that you can't focus on when you're stuck in a line of twenty cars riding your brakes and smelling theirs, because Big Bob doesn't want to get his tippy palace going too fast.

I do get the appeal, but lugging around so much tonnage seems like a recipe for a bad time. Now I'm at a different life stage where I've been doing a bunch of towing with an underpowered SUV, and I make it a point to get out of peoples' ways. Luckily most of that has been on multilane highways where it's easy to do so.
"Local filesystem" is not a thing... When you mount NFS on your laptop, is it local to your laptop or not? What if you have a caching client?

In other words, "local" or "remote" is not a property of filesystem.

Various storage products exist that try to solve the problem of data mobility, that is moving data quickly to a desired destination (which is usually "pretending to move" but in such a way that the receiving end can start working as soon as possible).

For open-source examples see DRBD. There are also some proprietary products that are designed to do the same.
OR instead of companies going under b/c the numbers no longer make sense....governing bodies could work to reduce the minimum cost to live, those necessary costs like housing and transit (to work and home). I agree that businesses need to pay enough for people to live, and wages have been falling increasingly short of that which is why labor organizing is rising.

Businesses can pay more (which some businesses won't be able to so they'll shutter), or the costs that workers need to pay can go down (more types of businesses can exist).
Comparing US and EU salaries is comparing apples to oranges. US salaries are higher, but in UE you have barely free healtcare, schooling until the university and also a generous welfare.
I could argue for breaking out business schools or not breaking out business schools but but you should do it cleanly and consistently.

I'd probably also argue that the headline is at least suggestive that the data is adjusted for school size and I don't believe it is. (Again, not clear if it should be or not but should be clear that this is about aggregates at the institution level.)

There's no such thing as "objective mental health". There's no test you can perform on a person to know if they're mentally well that doesn't involve asking them about it. If a person has no or little need for company, and has no or little company, how is that unhealthy? Who determines what an appropriate level of sociability is? I would have thought each person determines that for themselves, but you seem to disagree.

It's not the law's function to adjust the punishment to subjective view of the punished. Otherwise, you could argue that heterosexual people deserve lighter prison sentences than bi- or homosexual, because sex 2ith the same sex is much easier to obtain in prisons and therefore prison time is harsher on heterosexuals. For the record, I think this example is absurd, and I'm just using it to highlight the kind of absurdity your logic leads to.

The highest paying jobs I see are at the FAANGS. Other than that, the jobs all seem to be within a few percent of each other. Many employers in my area start off as contracts where you need to exceed expectations for a couple of years to be converted to permanent full time.
