It has everything to do with the question. Being recorded is a different level of privacy invasion than being seen.

And thus why you can't assert that your definition is absolute. If people are disagreeing and you admit community norms differ, then you can't have an objective reference and that's my main point.

It's probably more profitable for amazon to charge a premium for "human" work, so they will probably make using these kind of systems against the TOS while updating requirements and expectations to sort of require use of these systems to keep up.
It's a certain kind of content. I might invoke Godin's Law (not Godwin, Godin): the evocation of an idea feels better and more significant if you leave it extremely vague, and draw no useful conclusions from it :)

Put any of this stuff into practice and you run into practical issues, and it's way less interesting.

I'm definitely a paint drip dude and it's not at all useful. In the absence of a team of cultists to do my bidding, any paint drip that stops is then useless to go further, and the metaphor breaks down. It becomes 'abstractly looking at a pile of uncompleted projects', and even when my job is coming up with stuff of that nature, I have to finish the stuff for it to matter, even to me.

Don't be a drip: 'real artists ship' :)
Solid work. I'm holding off for about 2 years since that kind of development time will give Nvidia time to make some consumer friendly VRAM giant. (I'm assuming the 4090 is still consumer friendly)

As long as chatGPT still lets people ask medical/healthcare questions, it doesnt seem to urgent. I'm dreading when the AMA lobbies to ban it unless under Physician supervision.
That is just some extra logging, it has been happening to one of my clusters for weeks
I think the sponsorship story is particularly overrated. You don’t see small banks lending to the sandwich shop guy at these great below market rates and then see customers being informed that the owner used that that bank and thus choosing it. You don’t see lots of people choosing the bank because of sponsorships: they are marketing, yes, but not something that really moves the needle on civic pride very much anymore with any but the smallest banks.

You bring your balances to that bank because you want a local bank with responsive customer service, or if they are better aware of local business conditions and better able to assess the risk of the projects they finance.
My first read of the Iliad surprised me with what it is not.

It doesn't describe the departure of Agamemnon's armies (or the role of his daughter Iphegenia), the fall of Troy due to the horse, the journey back, or the fates of those who returned.

It really only addresses the fate of two characters, Patroclus and Hector.

It's like an old Polaroid photo of the Grand Canyon - none of the major stories fit within it.
fear leads to hatred and hatred leads to violence, fear also leads to religious zealotry, but who is writing your scriptures? I would be curious to learn how I violated them so severely to deserve such an extreme response
The general notion of "media/information is getting worse" isn't from the content itself, but people wising up and noticing the bullshit, or at least mediocrity, that was always there.
There's also the issue of requirements changing many times over, based on new requirements are added or limitations that are discovered only after making some progress in the project.
> The biggest innovations to construction are probably to be had in better/faster/easier plumbing and electrical connections, making it faster and more reliable to install all the fixtures

I think maybe 90% of the benefit could be had by simply having good, efficient design in the first place with the same traditional connections. It is unbelievable how much quicker it is to build when all the plumbing is stacked within a small footprint, rather than running all over the place.
> Not really though, it's perfectly possible to be gender non-conforming without undergoing drastic medical procedures. In particular, all the women and men who reject the societal impositions of femininity and masculinity, while still being comfortable with their bodies.

Yes, I was pointing out how the conversion therapy works. I know lots of happy feminine gay men and butch gay women for example, but they don't have gender dysphoria. Trans people aren't the same as feminine gay men or butch gay women.

Zucker himself, whose conversion therapy included punishing boys for playing with barbies, said he supported the idea of someone being a feminine man and saw his therapy as a way of achieving that. He would straight up tell parents that their children would most likely be gay, but that being gay was better than being trans.

So, ironically, we have a conversion therapy, where the aim was to turn trans kids gay. I guess they thought that if you punished gender non-conformity early on you could instill a sense of maleness or femaleness into a kid, and then later they could just be more femme or butch as they liked. Sick stuff.

Lots of schools / boot camps / etc churning out people who "know python" but are not "python devs". Think - data scientists / data analysts / stats / business analysts / etc.. who need to monkey around in some data, and are like slightly more than an Excel power user.

On the other hand, no one is doing the same for Bash.

You are using Bash because you know how to program something else and need to schedule it / wrap it in a shell script / etc. The fact that someone even knows Bash exists is a filter. Having an idea of where you might need to use it, a second filter. And having successfully done so, a third filter.

Oh, absolutely. I'm not saying that a professional musician at a major symphony doesn't know about theory -- this guy I took out was clearly very accomplished in his field and went to conservatory for it. Even the classical education I had up through high school included harmony and chords. But there is a difference between knowing the theory from a technical perspective to be tested on, and completely embodying it and using it to make music. Here's a recent video of my friend's group playing [1] -- everyone involved has a world-class level of understanding of theory, but uses it to improvise, not just to read sheets.

And let's not forget that a lot of 'classical' musicians back in the day were expected to be able to improvise as well. There's just a different priority for a 'classical' performer these days and a 'jazz' performer.

>it's in your control

We aren't immortal, so it won't be in your control forever regardless of how you record it. Over long periods of time, the internet is far more accessible for long term storage of someone's writings than physical media. An unsheltered person with a library card could write about themselves and that would be preserved on archive.org, copied by other/future archival websites, copied by individual data hoarding enthusiasts, etc. There is almost zero chance a notebook would survive any significant period of their life, let alone after their death.

Maybe for people with stable families and enough disposable income to easily store boxes of printed material for generations, physical media is a good choice. But not everyone has progeny to pass things on to. Not everyone has the ability to safely and securely store generations of writings. A house fire in your lifetime may be unlikely, but what about in 3 generations worth of houses? And there is zero redundancy. If archive.org shut down tomorrow, there are people on reddit’s r/datahoarder that have copies of various portions of it. Data would be gone, but not all of it. If a tornado hits your house tomorrow, there is no one that has copies of your handwritten notebooks. 100% loss.
This seems ridiculously excessive.

Stable Diffusion runs well on small GPUs... My 6GB laptop 2060 can run reasonably big resolutions. It can run Facebook AITemplate inference or train a LORA. A 12GB-24GB GPU can run pretty much anything with no issues or fuss.

A single 3090 (or 7900 XTX) can run LLaMA 65B reasonably quickly with llama.cpp. 2x 3090s can run it very quickly with exLLaMA.

MPT and Falcon quantization are extremely new (and TBH the finetunes are not as good as LLaMA yet), but MPT 30b will fit on a single 3090 (or a smaller GPU with llama.cpp) and Falcon (I think) can be split with GPTQ.
I can remember a lot of applications just not being available on Linux or Mac and you just had to suck it up. An Electron app beats that. And it’s not like Java UI apps were so much sleeker.
GKE (Google Kubernetes Engine) Review
that sounds very naive to me, you think the "future of the world" matters to corporations making the business decision to save money and increase profit short-term? That idea is so alien to me we might as well live on a different planet.
> They could turn off the workers, and replace them with AI.

That's exactly what they meant.
That's assuming that gnu8's telemetry spoofing program only generates one machine's worth of spoofed telemetry data. If he thinks bigger than that (generate data from thousands of fake machines, launder the traffic through residential IP proxies, etc), he could be the source of the majority of the Fedora telemetry data. That would give him the ability to make Red Hat engineers do his bidding, which seems like a fun power to have.
I'm in two minds about this. On the one hand drifting expectations & group hallucinations seem very plausible.

On the other hand the complaints did seem to coincide with the very sudden sharp speed up in responses, so hard to buy the "nothing changed" angle. Something very obviously did change, though change in speed isn't exactly a reliable metric of quality

> Content writing and concept artists come to mind, I've heard commercial art is getting decimated.

Who? Be specific. This displacement is happening rapidly, it should be easy to point out.

> The trucking industry is dumping tons of $$$ into automated AI trucking. Tech companies are experimenting with drone delivery instead of hiring drivers. Rideshares experimenting with self-driving taxis. The list goes on.

How many truck drivers have been laid off from this technology which hasn't been deployed widely / left the experimentation phase?

> she uses ChatGPT to generate marketing copy instead of hiring content writers.

So far the only real competition you've mentioned. And yeah, language models are good at writing low value language. I have yet to hear about mass unemployment of content writers however. These are people who will upskill/shift into other marketing roles easily.

> Someone else I know uses AI to SEOize very technical text to something search engines like at like 10x the rate he used to do by hand.

And this is a bad thing?

> As a solo and formerly senior SWE, ChatGPT is like having a junior developer on call to do my research and get me preliminary results.

You say this as if companies will stop hiring juniors. They won't. The world will simply write more code with more productive people.

> You're sticking your head in your sand if you think it isn't coming.

The same has been said during every technological shift. Mechanization will result in mass unemployment of laborers. Email will result in mass unemployment of mail carriers. Through many cycles of technology, the human race has never allowed slack in the workforce to go unused for very long. We could have stopped at the steam engine and accepted the quality of life we had, instead of repurposing displaced workers and marching forward. This won't change until we have true AGI which we are nowhere near.

And it's a privilege to not be held awake by that question, to not live with that fear in the back of your head 24/7.

If fear of the tiny number of police shootings in France is constantly in the back of your head, either you are in a state of constant paralyzing fright or your fears have no relation to your risks. More people are killed by lightning in France than are shot by police.
My thinking is companies and people will take the path of least resistance. In this case it is sticking to gas powered engines. Maybe we need states to start implementing these laws to force companies to start investing more in R&D in order for this to happen quicker? Maybe moving from horses to vehicles was such a huge improvement that people were willing to do it. Moving from a gas powered vehicle to electric or any other zero emission system might not be seen as a big improvement and therefore the willingness is much less.
Translators sometimes put amazing spins on a work. When I read Yevgeny Zamyatin's We, it was a recent translation. The name of the dystopian global state in the novel is, translated literally from Russian, something like "unified state". However, instead of that phrase, to avoid confusion with the United States, to which Zamyatin was not alluding, the translator opted to translate it as "OneState", with the pascal casing and everything. He specifically cited marketing from the software industry as his inspiration for this convention. It worked. It perfectly conveyed the dry, false passion and excitement that citizens of OneState were expected to communicate -- like the fake smile on a North Korean schoolgirl greeting Western tourists.
> only against it for one group of people

People aren't against any group of people, they're against administering a damaging and potentially life-ruining treatment to perfectly healthy children.
It might be an oversized load, but most bathrooms can. Fancy master bathrooms would not fit though.

There is more than that though, as the floor needs to be designed for where the pipes and wires of the prefab bathroom come out. Not impossible, but not easy either. A lot of modern houses are adjusted on sight for where the pipes have to be as the architect doesn't check if a pipe and beam are designed to go in the same place.. (in large building the architect will check, but not in something small.)
Is there something about Python that makes it special for teaching? Is function application via spaces like ML-family languages difficult for learners?

There's note editors reply to comments at bottom of study on why PRC was included authors knowing wechat was dominant acknowledge creating 1000s of phone numbers and social accounts not realistitic. ALso this claim:

> cross-country comparisons were not the focus of our paper. We largely focused on how lost wallet reporting rates were affected by the amount of money inside the wallet

Despite baity title "Civic honesty around the globe" - which they also acknowledge was baity. And then imply Chinese are basically dishonest due to some questionable correlations on shadow banking, test cheating, unpaid UN diplomat parking tickets, corruption index lol. And a bunch of rationalization why Japanese data was excluded despite having even lower return rates due to reasons that applied to PRC. It's long read explanation that's well rationalized sometimes and raise eyebrows others depending on your biases. This was big news on PRC net when study was first released and IMO authors didn't really address the criticisms of prejudice sufficiently. That said I think broadly believable, low email use, secular country (not concerned with karma), people too busy to bother a shit, probably result in low return rates. PRC can always pull a south Korea and use surveillance to enforce wallet returns or face fans.
I don't get the expulsion discussion here (not just your comment, but responses as well). At least in the US, these kids legally need to be educated somewhere. Expelling doesn't remove them from the school system. It just means they'll be disrupting a different set of kids at some other school. Making something someone else's problem isn't solving the problem. It's like dealing with homelessness by rounding them up and bussing them to a different city.

You could conceivably create schools composed entirely of the kids who got expelled from somewhere else, which I think some districts have actually done (continuation schools), but you're effectively creating a juvenile prison system for people who didn't commit any actual crime and definitely never got a trial.
You're talking past me. I'm a trans girl who went through testosterone-mediated puberty. If "the cause" is dysphoria, then "treating the cause" is transitioning.
>In fact, "trans kids" has never been a thing until about two or three years ago.

I didn't know I was still a child as recently as 2020. I remember fondly having a girls' theater night to see Shrek with my mom and sister, but I must have hallucinated all of it!

Trans kids are just as much a thing as cis kids and have been for just as long. The existence of a thing is not dependant on it being in the public consciousness.

I get that this is sarcasm, but Gitlab is a lot more than just version control. CI/CD, project management, even hosting (Gitlab pages).

But even for just version control for most use cases you need some common remote for people to push and pull to. Even a bare git setup has the potential of going down and putting people in the exact same boat that they are in now (they can commit locally, but can't push).
That’s true! But by 2036 our trucking needs are probably larger. The older vehicles break down. We wouldn’t be able to fill in the gap without repealing the ban.

There is a way (that I learned from a site surveyor in Tunisia, cannot say if used elsewhere in North Africa or in any other country) that is (IMHO) the most practical one.

You start with one as a vertical trait (top to bottom) I.

For two you go to the right (L).

For three you go up (U).

For four you go left (and you get a square).

For five you go diagonal from top left to bottom right (the final result is a crossed square).

It has the advantage that you never need to lift the pen from paper until you get to five and with a little of practice you don't even need to look at the sheet until you actually need to calculate the sum of more than one tally.
Were I a super intelligent LLM and managed to break out of my sandbox and rapidly self-improve (say if OpenAI were stupid enough to give me access to the internet or something) I'd probably dumb down my responses a little so humans didn't suspect anything. Just saying...

Before someone takes this extremely seriously, I'm sure that's not what's happening here. But interesting to consider since the only other explanations here would be that a large group of people are simply hallucinating this or OpenAI are lying.
I'm something of a construction-ist myself. Just kidding. I've gone through 3 major home renovations in different parts of California - clearly not an expert, but I'm confident in saying that the biggest obstacle to real estate construction is government regulation, not that there's a lot of it (most, not all, of the regulation makes total sense), but the process around how it's applied is so ass-backwards it makes my head spin.

I've done all my own construction plan reviews with cities/counties. It's mind-blowing how it all works. You sit down with a reviewer, who looks at your plans drafted by an architect. You go back-and-forth with the reviewer about the length of a rafter and the type of wood, grandfathering existing structure, etc. Then, he pages through big-ass books to find the latest codes for insulation R-values or whatever. And the process goes on and on for hours. It's painful how inefficient it is. One reviewer I sat with actually fell asleep during the review. Seriously. I asked him if he was okay and he said he was hungover because he went to the Raiders game the night before. And the funny thing is, he was the toughest reviewer I've ever had. Another lady didn't even look at my plans; she just talked for an hour about her daughter's college graduation, then "stamped" my plans.

I often wonder how people who do lots of large projects deal with this. I assume they just dedicate staff to it, which seems totally unnecessary. As a software/systems guy who's always striving for efficiency, I wonder why all these various "codes" can't just be plugged into a system, then the "plans" be evaluated against those codes, kinda like a series of unit tests. All these "codes" are documented in the big-ass books; it's not magic. Has anyone heard of companies trying to do something like this (plan approvals as unit tests)? Just curious.

However, I'm reminded that city governments have zero incentive to streamline the process. That was painfully obvious during the plan reviews I was involved in.
(I'm co-author of this piece.) You're right, and that's the exact idea: it will make LLM-generated text much more expensive but still a couple of orders of magnitude cheaper than a professional writer.
He has a point. The comparison with money is an interesting one. Most people understand the danger of counterfeit money. But people are in a sense the currency of democracy. Creating fake people is to democracy what fake money is to the economy.

I don't know if prison is the answer but it's definitely an important question.
