>> landlords who can use high rates and high inflation as an excuse to put up rents.

Is that really just an excuse? Why shouldn't rents increase in an inflationary environment? What makes them more special than food products for example?
This gives me some vague hope that if humans do succeed in boiling the atmosphere and destroying ourselves, intelligent life might still find a way to survive at the bottom of the oceans.
Order of magnitude, what specific efficiencies do you think are causing this?

because I think that is just completely silly. Efficiencies will trigger Jevons' paradox and result in energy use rising. What we're seeing in these graphs is a squeeze as Asian nations outcomplete the developed countries combined with a series of policy failures in the West as we choke out our own energy and industrial bases.

it seem like the Irish Authority isn't happy at all with the way the data is "commingled" with Instagram.
Could the fact that deleting the Threads account will also remove the Instagram one be connected to having this Threads thingy appear as a part/feature of Instagram instead of a self-standing platform?

>>> a feature does not "add expressive power" if we can implement it as a macro that turns it into something in the original language

But a macro is just an integrated language that lets us emulate more expressive features. To me that's no different from implementing a more expressive language in a simpler one, so this claim seems equivalent to saying all Turing-complete languages have the same expressive power because you can emulate them in each other.
You're still giving users and money to Meta, which is probably gonna try use threads to do an EEE (embrace, extend, extinguish) on the Fediverse (Group of server software like Mastodon and Lemmy which are able to talk between each other, mastodon is probably the better twitter alternative, just try not to join the biggest instances and join a smaller one, experience is better)

So Threads numbers are basically fake? Just Instagram users?
I’ve been delighted with my “lifetime” Plex pass, but I worry the day will soon come when I discover the end of the lifetime.

Marco Arment has occasionally complained about lifetime, one-time Overcast premium subscriptions and how he’d really like to rug pull those. But, to his credit, has no present plans to do so. However, it’s more because he doesn’t want to deal with the backlash, rather than because the right thing to do is honor “lifetime.”
So this is just my own observation, but often when someone donates to an open source project it is actually to a nonprofit created by some opportunists in the name of that project and not to ones who wrote code.

I'd be interested to see how a court interprets that given technology that allows discreet remote recording. E.g. you might have to reasonably expect that the guy next to you on the bus could be wearing a wire, but what if someone has a powerful enough microphone that they can record quiet conversations at similar distances to a telephoto lens? I'm unsure what the current actual availability of such technology is, but I'm suggesting it for the sake of argument

Or what if you've hidden a microphone on a secluded bench, and record a conversation where the subjects reasonably believe there is no one around for 20 metres? Consider that businesses put up "you're on CCTV" signs for a reason. A lot of the reason is deterrence, but depending on the jurisdiction it's sometimes considered a legal necessity (or at least prudent) to make the subject aware of the recording, even in a private space

> HumanEval: InternLM-7B: 10.4, LLaMA-7B: 14.0

The funny part is that the base model apparently outperforms the fine tune.

So far the HumanEval benchmark seems to be the only one that can objectively compare overall model performance despite being a coding-only benchmark, the rest mostly just give a "99.7% chatgpt" bullshit results. Turns out you can't compare creative writing because all outputs are basically valid.
It seems like it’s going to eventually have activitypub / mastodon support? I’m hoping I can just follow everyone from Threads in my existing mastodon app. (Or from the webui of the instance I use)

Lots of instances are anti-meta integration. But imo the protocol is open specifically for this kinda thing. I don’t have to use Facebook’s garbage, but I can still get content from people who do.
Is SEO the best marketing channel for indie hackers?
Is SEO the best marketing channel for indie hackers?

SEO is a continuous, long-term process that sets the foundation for your organic web traffic. Start-ups, big companies and indie hackers alike should put in consistent effort to generate good content and build links (which are like actual relationships with other websites). This will help the site grow organically in the long run.

So, SEO is a must-have long term strategy and pairing it with some initial paid awareness campaigns would make up for speed.
I have heard one too many podcasts with Marc Andreessen. He has plenty of transparently obvious arguments to why AI must be good. His most laughable point was to suggest that the fact that ChatGPT seems to be ethical that all AI models will be ethical, a point which I believe epitomizes either his technical ignorance on the topic, a lack of logical rigor, and/or some amount of dishonesty.

There are two kinds of risk: the risk from these models as deployed as tools and as deployed as autonomous agents.

The first is already quite dangerous and frankly already here. An algorithm to invent novel chemical weapons is already possible. The risk here isn’t Terminator, it’s rogue group or military we don’t like getting access. There are plenty of other dangerous ways autonomous systems could be deployed as tools.

As far as autonomous agents go, I believe that corporations already exhibit most if not all characteristics of AI, and demonstrate what it’s like to live in a world of paperclip maximizers. Not only do they destroy the environment and bend laws to achieve their goals, they also corrupt the political system meant to keep them in check.

> less efficient workflows

Lots of people talk about this but I am not sure what does this even mean? I open programs, work inside the program and switch between programs. All of this is allowed by Gnome or any other DE/WM. But somehow people always use the word "workflow" and how a particular DE/WM doesn't support their "workflow".
Isn't this only the case if what you do is both easy and doesn't require any level of accuracy/correctness?
Based on reading the Institute for the Study of War's daily updates, I got the impression that they rely a lot more on Telegram. E.g. the most recent post https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offens... has 90 t.me links and 22 twitter.com links.

Since for the ISW folks, following the war in Ukraine is kind of their job, I think that's a pretty good approximation of the two platforms' relative importance in that area.
US DOD fuel use being the level of Sweden doesn’t seem problematic to my envelope-math; it seems to reflect the size of the entities involved.

Iraq is a now broken third word country/economy in recovery so not a great comparable to US. Sweden is small but a good comparable culturally/development-wise. US is 331 million people. It spends 3% of GDP on military. 3% of 331m is 10 million. Sweden is 10 million people. U.S. military fuel use is in line with Sweden’s.

I could be off here (DOD!=US military?), corrections welcome, but I wouldn’t even be shocked if a military entity uses 3-10x more fuel than a civilian average and above math puts us surprisingly close to 1x.

When we talk about developing models in alignment with goals to herd or control super intelligence since humans will not be able to do it, we are necessarily talking about designing something capable of governing and controlling very complex systems. What happens when a "misaligned system" happens to be a rebellious human being? In trying to find ways to control potential superintelligence and keep it on a positive path, is it possible we are building the very system that enslaves us?

Maybe this is one of those problems.
It will only have activitypub/mastodon till it is the number 1 player...

At that point, suddenly the activitypub feeds will start mysteriously getting unreliable/ratelimited and eventually support will be dropped and it'll be back to a silo.

Facebook itself is very aggressive about the one account thing. But Instagram is not. It's common enough within my friend group to have multiple accounts, and bots are also kinda common.
Daniele here.

Tutorials, how-to guides, reference, explanation are modes of documentation.

They are not an exhaustive list of every kind of content that should appear in your documentation.

Diátaxis is not a list of four boxes into which all content should be mercilessly shoved whether it fits or not.

Consider: a homepage, an introduction, a foreword, a contents page, a landing page for a section, an index, credits, a list of contributors (I am sure you can think of more).

These can all be important. Documentation without a homepage would be positively stupid. I don't think we should have sections that are not introduced by landing pages.

Diátaxis doesn't prescribe anything for them, not because they are not important, but because they are not themselves modes of documentation. They are part of its furniture, if you like - just as an introduction, translator's note etc might be an important part of a book, but nothing whatsoever to do with the story it contains.

Homepages and landing pages are explicitly mentioned at https://diataxis.fr/complex-hierarchies/, by the way.

(Release notes could equally well be expressed as reference or in a section on their own. It really doesn't matter. It doesn't seem like something Diátaxis needs to worry about.)
This is funny to me because almost all of the 'AI skeptics' have moved on from "LLMs will not make intelligence" to now saying "LLM intelligence is dangerous" or "LLM intelligence will be better than human so people will think it will be infallible which won't be true and that is bad" you got to catch up with those goalposts they are moving so fast. On the other hand I got to give you props for holding the OG line.

Robots, bipedal or not will certainly arrive at some point. I suppose it will take some more time before we can pack enough compute in anything battery driven for the robot itself to have AGI.

But the main point is that AGI's don't have to wipe us out as soon as they reach superintelligence, even if they're poorly aligned. Instead, they will do more and more of the work currently being done by humans. Non-embodied robots can do all mental work, including engineering. Sooner or later, robots will become competitive at manual labor, such as construction, agriculture and eventually anything you can think of.

For a time, humanity may find themselves in a post-scarcity utopia, or we may find ourselves in a Cyberpunk dystopia, with only the rich actually benefitting.

In each case, but especially the latter, there may still be some (or more than some) "luddites" who want to tear down the system. The best way for those in power to protect against that, is to use robots first for private security and eventually the police and military.

By that point, the violence monopoly is completely in the hands of the AI's. And if the AI's are not aligned with our values at that point, we have as little of a shot at regaining control as a group of chimps in a zoo as of toppling the US government.

Now, I don't think this will happen by 2030, and probably not even 2050. But some time between 2050 and 2500 is quite possible, if we develop AI that is not properly aligned (or even if it is aligned, though in that case it may gain the power, but not misuse it).
I've played Factorio (and Satisfactory, and DSP) and I understand that you can just do a bit here and a bit there but still. And I've spent 1,500 hours in some games (with a couple of hours a night, most - but not all - nights) too. Even so, it's intimidating to start such an endeavour.
I'd argue different to the other replies so far. The reasons were:

First and foremost, it's a Google product. Google's own internal structural failings are predisposed to create and then kill products.

https://killedbygoogle.com

It had a different usage model ("Circles") to the things people already had and understood. Twitter, Facebook etc. And it didn't map clearly to those existing understood structures.

It was more complicated for end users, was unintuitive and badly explained. I didn't "get it" until someone either on HN or Reddit explained how it was supposed to work.

Google tried to use Google+ to replace YouTube comments. Something YouTube users didn't want, something it wasn't good at, and something that was badly communicated and extremely badly received. People actively resented the product as a result.

Google mishandled some big issues. Requiring "real names" went down like a lead balloon, something they had to walk back years later, but not before using it to replace YouTube comments.

It could have been lucrative and sticky glue between Google properties. Instead it was the crappy old spiderweb you accidentally get stuck to your face while cleaning out the shed.
I was once told that Supply Chain and logistics are a people business. And it's true, for the very reasons you mentioned, the moment partners work according to the letter of the contract, and not the spirit, things become difficult. Trust is so easily lost...

> Meta will nuke your Instagram account for basically anything

Opened the app last week and had to click through an accept gate warning me if I keep using "Scraping tools" I'll lose my account.

The only "scraping" I've been doing is copying the direct image links and posting them to slack and my bookmarking service a few times a month.

Insane to me that they're red in the face threatening me to lose my account over having the audacity to just share a direct image link.

Garbage service.
JumpCloud Security Incident
I really want to like Joplin, and I've tried to switch a number of times. But the mobile experience just isn't there for me. The iOS app is simple and reliable, which is good, but it's missing some of the touches that make mobile computing feel like it's made for mobile.

Specifically, things like swipes for navigation and for selecting or deleting notes. Also, many of the buttons are just too damn small for my sausage fingers. It's dumb, I know. Still, I find myself attempting to swipe to open the side bar then realizing my mistake after the second try and fumbling to reach the too small hamburger in the very top left of the screen.

Notes are something I reference at my desktop but generally write while on the go, so having a easy to use mobile app is a requirement for me. It's a shame though cause the desktop experience is so good.

Much as I despise Meta, I have to say that the article doesn't really say the same thing as the headline and it appears to be pure clickbait to me. Compare:

> Meta will nuke your Instagram account if you delete Threads profile

with

> Meta explains: “You may deactivate your Threads profile at any time, but your Threads profile can only be deleted by deleting your Instagram account.”

The title seems to imply that a user deleting their Threads profile may more-or-less inadvertently delete their Instagram account. This is not supported by the quote from Meta, and there is no indication that there's any procedure to initiate deletion of the Threads profile which would then trigger the Instagram deletion. An accurate headline would be, for example, «Meta will delete your Threads profile only if you nuke your Instagram account». Is that shitty user-hostile behaviour from Meta? Absolutely yes — but not that shitty.
I've only used llama via llama.cpp.

In general I think the python ML stuff is a mess. But I still won't execute code that recommend me to trust arbitrary remote code as the remote code can change at any time, it would be better to wait with the release until it was published to the transformers library or just include it in a clonable repo without the trust_remote_code flag.

It is much better to just be able to clone the code and have it locally so you can verify it once and not trust that it won't download any new code suddenly that you haven't been able to look at.

trust_remote_code means you have no control really, cloning a repo means you control when new code is added yourself.

For work, I love Kanban and Gantt, depending.

For personal tasks (not work), I use a todo list that emphasizes not having the task in view if I've decided it's not a candidate to do that day. (Such as by using the Start Date feature of some tools.)

I also try to cull the candidate tasks for the next day on the night before, bumping tasks so that I won't see them and have to consider them the next morning, wasting fresh brain.

I'm good at multi-tasking, but there's noticeable costs to that, so I try not to do it unnecessarily.
