You can't decry the Other for acts you commit without remorse or recompense.

Enough with the double standards.

The only ones who can commit "sins" and still hold any moral high ground are "Sin Eaters", but they don't do those things for any personal benefit but rather to correct improper benefits other have received or seek to receive.

The rest of us are just selfish hypocritical trash that should either change our ways or stfu.
Sorry, you are right. The issue I was thinking about is that there are different OSS licenses, and they have different requirements for use. Attribution and open sourcing any changes you make to the original code base are an examples.

The agreements for opening code up for review purposes only is indeed not OSS, despite the word 'open' often being used there.

I started off sound, then diverged. The part of Twitter that was open sourced will have a license spelling out what you need to do (if anything) in order to use the code. The review part is a different thing.

> Similarly we should let burglars off the hook because they're putting bread on their families' tables. My point being is that such a limp response is just more privatization of profits and socialization of losses/costs.

Except we're not. Unlike a corporation, a burglar is a unitary entity. Everyone guilty in the company (including its shareholders) will be "on the hook."

> The systemic risk of not putting companies to death when they behave badly is greater than the risk of the less-guilty stakeholders (you can't be a stakeholder in a bad actor and be innocent - only less guilty; that's true of employees and customers).

No. That's an unreasonably extreme take that, if taken to heart, would cause the cons to far outweigh the pros. We live in the real world, and the real world demands tradeoffs.

Also extending this to all the costumers is nonsense. Is some dude who buys a 3M N95 mask in a hardware store even a little bit guilty of polluting the water supply with PFAS? No, of course not. You might be able to extend some blame to companies that bought PFAS from 3M, but it would have to a pretty direct connection.

In theory you can add an index on the token text column and then implement full text searching yourself using the index to find the set of documents containing each search term, counting the occurrences per document, and combining the results from all the terms. But FTS5 already does that for you, and it's more efficient than the above.

The traditional FTS5 technique as documented [0] should work, same as if this were a local SQLite database. You'll have to duplicate the transcriptions into TEXT form (one row per document) and then use FTS5 to create a virtual table for full text searching. The TEXT form won't actually be accessed for searching, it's just used to build the inverted index.

The us government is motivated to attribute the outbreak to natural causes, because if the leak came from the wuhan lab, us policy and action is partially responsible. No one in power benefits from covid being the result of careless isolation protocols in GOF experimentation.

YMMV but to me the spike protein encoding on the original covid strains was just a little too close for comfort to fall into the random mutation category for my armchair opinion. I would have expected to see a non-human variant of the spike protein if it was a natural occurrence.

Either way, it is doubtful to me that we will ever know for sure.
Pretty sure that was FAANG's approach, until the interest rates returned to normal.
Exactly.
We keep leaving out 'motivation' on these models.
Since they are reacting to prompts.
But put them on a loop with goals and see what happens.

And, things like GPT are not 'embodied', since they don't live in the 'world' they can't associate language with physical reality. Put them in a simulated environment like a game, and it looks a lot more 'conscious'.
My hypothesis is that if everyone used snaps, it would reduce the complexity of packaging by reducing or eliminating dependencies that need to be installed separately.
> Contract agreements need to be explicit.

They actually don't. Courts have to grapple with poorly documented agreements all the time. They do so by hearing arguments from both sides and looking at context for clues as to the parties' intentions.

You can argue that a society where all contracts have to be spelled out in writing would be a better society, but it's not the society we live in and never has been. Making up a rule like this now would be hugely disruptive as it would mean that many agreements that were enforceable yesterday are unenforceable today.

Using "gotchas" to wriggle out of contractual obligations because the market has turned against you is similarly abusive.

Yep, it’s the “can wield more power” is better. I’m biased in that way because to me if you fail when you don’t have a lot of power, the consequences are worse than when you fail as a CEO or some high level managerial position where you’re given golden handcuffs/parachutes.

In other words, to me it feels like an IC can “fail down” but managers/directors/c-suites only seem to “fail up” - hence, better. I also think managers make way more than an IC, as they are a “level above” in the org structure.

I’m happy to change my bias, but I haven’t seen any evidence to the contrary.
Fun fact: this was the same complaint early Christians had about Roman art, and was dubbed "the Fig Leaf Campaign" for the unanimous fig leaf censorship that supposedly de-pornified the great early pieces that were definitely porn.

So, broadly speaking, I don't think this is a new trend. Is it maybe an anthropological impossibility that society can exist without fetishizing it's own existence?

You should check out his browser hacking videos. It's pretty shocking how much they have already and how fast it's improving. I have no doubt they will eventually be able render the vast majority of websites correctly. The real question is whether they will ever be able to make it performant enough that people who don't care about browser hacking will choose to use it. That's where a lot of the engineering hours in browsers goes.

Not necessarily so.

It did without a doubt, but that same game was also available for the Wii U, which was easier to find and costed significantly less than the Switch. Having a killer app helped generate interest, but people actually liking the gimmick is ultimately why the Switch succeeded.
The amount of "Twitter has no intellectual property I could build it in my bedroom" gaslighting going on in this discussion is unbelievable. Buried the needle.
It's not nearly as bad as you're making it out to be. I only vaguely remember a big libpng breakage thing from ~10 years ago--is that what you're referring to?

Also, I often go 6+ months without updating this machine. The only friction I've gotten in years is pacman-keyring updates sometimes need to be done first, before updating the rest of the system because of key expiration from going so long between updates. Recently, they merged the community repo into the extra repo and left community empty for the time being, so the only maintenance I did was to remove [community] from my pacman.conf after running a system update a few weeks ago (again, after months of not updating)--and even that I didn't technically need to do yet, since the community repo still exists for now.

Everyone's use case is different, and I surely don't have the same configuration or packages as you or anyone else, but this kind of comment sounds like bullshit to me.

EDIT: Not that I'm agreeing with the recommendation to use Arch if you used to use Ubuntu's minimal install. Arch is a drastic change compared to just doing a full Ubuntu install and removing a bunch of crap...

I'm not sure why this needs to be said, but "you" in this context is conceptually an abstraction of the private citizen. Maybe @shadowgovt the individual never says a word that the establishment would disapprove of, but don't count on that always being the case, and certainly don't expect others to fall in line in that regard. Is it your opinion that the government should have such power - specifically to, without officially commandeering/nationalizing the companies, to direct them to censor disfavored non-criminal speech?
The SegaCD and 32x were most assuredly problems for Sega. They were both problematic with third party developers because their low sales made for a small addressable market. The 32x especially burned third party devs because the Saturn was announced right as the 32x was released.

If you were mid-development of a 32x game in November of 1994 you just found out a lot of the money you'd spend had been wasted. You'll either be releasing a game in a few months on a system with no future (32x) or have to spend extra money to port and release it on the Saturn.

The Saturn never got the sort of third party support that the PlayStation did. Square and Konami released system-selling games with Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid. That was in addition to second party games like Gran Tourismo which was a system seller as well.
The one thing I would want to know before switching from fedora to ubuntu - there's a ton of software support given ubuntu's prior popularity, so it always seems like the path of least resistance getting set up for basic things like a samba server or for a pytorch/CUDA development setup - how far along is this with Fedora? Similarly, there's a ton of user generated tutorials/technical and configuration answers online for ubuntu - I am hoping Fedora has this sort of material floating around?

Similarly, it seems the Fedora community exists by the good graces...of IBM - how much independence would it have in the future?

It had far too little time as the best hardware before PS2

It didn't matter because Sony had already won the hype war, EA forsook the DC, and the built in DVD player was something of a killer app itself.

BUT If you go back and look at the first year or two of PS2 titles, they were not technically superior to the Dreamcast.

IMO the Dreamcast had 1-2 years as the best hardware on the market, and another 1-2 years on par with the PS2.

PS2 was far superior "on paper" but in reality, the difference was not as large as the numbers suggested at a glance. The Dreamcast did two things the PS2 didn't:

- Hidden face removal, making it vastly more efficient than the PS2 (most polygons in a scene are actually hidden by other polygons, so if you avoid rendering them that's an enormous win [1]

- Free hardware texture decompression, so it needed much less video memory [2]

Those points were subtle, though. The gaming press and internet chatter at the time was largely (and understandably) oblivious to tech subtleties like that.

In the end, obviously, the PS2 actually was superior once developers (and particularly middleware developers) mastered its tricky CPU. But I didn't consider it to really surpass the DC for a while.

That, and the controller was obnoxious.

I liked the controller unlike many, but the failure to include a second analog stick was a real miss. The sad thing is, the DC's controller protocol had support for dual analog inputs. They just didn't forsee the need.

What about those of us who do understand them and just don't agree?

After all you could simplify it to a layperson as: 'the LLM is just doing fancy autocomplete based on how stuff appeared in the training data so that means they're not creative'

The first part is not really up for debate, but it's the second part is where some of us disagree. Creativity doesn't mean novel in existence, it means novel within some context: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/254301596_The_Stand...

—

At some point, the push back against these models being creative starts to feel like it's just as emotion driven as the people who are over-anthropomorphizing the models: "If I accept something I know is just a ball of linear algebra is creative, then it's cheapening the definition of creativity."

People bring up the stochastic parrot argument forgetting that the original paper was predicated on the dangers of not considering the power that lies in something that's "just" a stochastic parrot.

> What use is a follower graph if it doesn't correlate to the accounts on your platform?

Is asking about the point of scraping your Twitter social graph if they can’t actually align it with accounts on the platform. If you follow foo bar on Twitter, it doesn’t mean that foo bar on threads is the same foo bar. The Twitter social graph is useless unless to try to map to meta accounts.
The problem is the lack of IPv4 addresses. IPv4 addresses are ridiculous expensive. And most people don't need a public address so ISP save a ton of money by using NAT. I don't know if they must give you one or not if you ask, but I think a public IP address should be a human right, or you should at least be able to change to an ISP that can provide one.
From my experience, Arch is great for messing around with, but not as a daily driver. It is also not the most beginner friendly distro for people looking for one.

The reality is that that amount of money probably barely covers the return on the value of such a piece of prime real estate in Manhattan.

The solution is easy, get rid of on street parking, use the space for pedestrians, bikes and shops, cafes and restaurants. Why should the public pay for people's ability to put their space wasters somewhere and they even complain about getting fines for obstructing emergency services.

Before someone chimes in with "but you need a car to get around...", we are talking about Manhattan here not somewhere in the Apalachians.
That's how we all want it to work, but the reality today is that GPT-4 is better at almost anything than a fine-tuned version of any other model.

It's somewhat rare to have a task and good enough dataset that you can finetune something else to be close enough in quality to GPT-4 for your task.
Damn, that was a depressing read. If that's how things are going, then it really is past time for me to stop using Linux entirely. This is feeling like the final straw in a series of things that have been pushing me away.
I agree, but I also think it's a completely unsurprising outcome. Pre-internet, there were lots of people who wanted to be famous, and idolized movie and TV stars and the like. With these sorts of internet platforms, those types of people actually do have a shot at being well-known, if not outright famous, in a way.
> Legal writing is ideal training data: mostly formulaic, based on conventions and rules, well-formed and highly vetted, with much of the best in the public domain.

That makes sense. The labor impact research suggests that law will be a domain hit almost as hard as education by language models. Almost nothing happens in court that hasn't occured hundreds of thousands of times before. A model with GPT-4 power specifically trained for legal matters and fine tuned by jurisdiction could replace everyone in a courtroom. Well there's still the bailiff, I think that's about 18 months behind.

Well, if just counting all the billionaires [1], they have a total net worth of ~135 billion, and there's currently ~47MM people in Spain [2], so if you sent out the stormtroopers and forcefully confiscated every last penny of net worth from all the billionaires, and redistributed it equally, each person would get a one-time payment of ~2,800. I'd theorize that the resulting destruction to the economy/country in the process would probably ultimately wipe more wealth from the people than 2,800 per person, but hey, maybe not.
