Yeah that is counter intuitive till you forget not knowing it.
My observations are literally the opposite of what you said so YMMV. Design is where the needs of humans interface with the needs of a machine. Models are good at translating basic needs to code. Not so great knowing or figuring those needs in wider context. Yet. They’re interns.
I feel like this was ultimately the right solution - demand zero PFAS to the water companies, and have 3M pay for it - via lawsuit or goodwill.

I feel instead none of the money from 3M is going to make its way to this being a reality.

Some Google search results now includes a section for Reddit, just like Images
Today, I was surprised to see a new button at the top of my Google search results: "Reddit". (Between "Images" and "Shopping".) I was searching this phrase: programming trough of despair

Am I asleep-at-wheel? When did this happen? If I search other things, like "wiki korea", I don't get the "Reddit" button.
> Is that the fault of the experiment?

No. It's the fault of middle management.

If you are unable to provide your manager reasons for new development, he's going to find someone else to do your job, someone who will give him a report with charts and numbers that he can use to justify and expand his teams operational and headcount budget.

Giving a manager a report that says "there are little to no modifications that we can make at this time to improve UX" is a CLM for him.

The complaint about the video's statements at the end, about somehow this is all exclusionary, seem very weird to me. And another poster was flagged, for mentioning this?

The sad part is, it terms of learning skills, this is literally the most equality laden industry.

You can used a decade old computer, a used raspberry pi, an old discarded laptop and learn, code, read, play. There's no wall, no secret knowledge, and OSS software has code, and man pages, and information everywhere.

There are endless websites and communities, forums, mailing lists, and no one cares who 'webname45' is, or what their skin colour is, or orientation.

This field is about intellect, not about going to a entitled school, or even school at all! You can be a high school drop out, and easily succeed here! So many people are self taught, and it has nothing to do with privilege, or cost, or access, none... none of that is a barrier to learn in this field.

Complaining about "this is complex" is asinine, and conflates "learning stuff" with privilege.

"Learning stuff" is not exclusionary, when there is no bar, no restrictions on doing so. When anyone can do so.

People growing up in third world nations, malnourished, hungry, poor or no schooling, with english as a second language, easily pick this stuff up.

Because all it takes is intellect, raw intellect. Not learning, not background, no help needed, no money needed, but just intellect and reading.

And if you're going to call intellect or "knowing stuff you can understand for free" barriers, it's you that's the problem.
Yes, but the problems are always multifaceted. So sometimes even an apparent weakness might come off as a strength or a non-issue in a different situations. For example it's interesting that for all its technical excellence Windows isn't present in the HPC space.
Yes, having the model write an entire short story or chapter is not very good. It excels if you interact closely with it.

I tested it to create NPCs for fantasy role playing games. I think its the primary reason cobold.cpp exists (hence the name).

You give it a (ideally long, detailed) prompt describing the character traits of the NPCs you want, and maybe even add back and forth dialogue with other characters to the prompt.

And then you just talk to those characters in the scene you set.

There's also "story mode", where you and the model take turns writing a complete story, not only dialogue. So both of you can also provide exposition and events, and the model usually only creates ~10 sentences at a time.

There's communities online providing extremely complex starting prompts and objectives (escape prison, assassin someone at a party and get away, ect.) for the player, and for me, the antagonistic ones (the models has control over NPCs that don't like you) are surprisingly fun.

Note that one of the main drivers of having uncensored open source LLMs is people wanting to role-play erotica with the model. That's why the model that first had scaled RoPE for 8k context length is called "superhot" - and the reason it has 8K context is that people wanted to roleplay longer scenes.

That is solving a completely different problem.

The RISC-V AMO instructions are designed and intended to be implemented such that the arithmetic part is NOT executed in the CPU in a read-modify-write sequence -- only very low end CPUs (microcontrollers, that don't have a real memory hierarchy or multiple processors anyway) do it that way.

What actually happens is this:

amoadd.w rd,rs2,(rs1)

All of rs1 (the memory address), rs2 (the amount to be added), and a field indicating this is an AMOADD, not AMOMIN, AMOXOR etc or even a plain store are send out on in parallel fields on the peripheral bus (e.g. TileLink-C or TileLink-UH) until it gets to either the actual endpoint containing the target address (perhaps an I/O device and register), or the point where the target address is found to be accessed by a simple read/write (TileLink-UL) bus -- this is often the last-level cache controller. But it could also be an L1 or L2 cache for another CPU core, or in another CPU cluster, or even in a completely different computer with the addr/data/op triple passing over 400G ethernet or NVMe or something on the way.

In either case, this point is much closer to the data than the originating CPU is. The TileLink device at that point atomically reads the memory contents, performs the arithmetic, stores the new value, and then sends the old value back to the CPU just the same as for a memory read.

From the CPU's point of view, the AMO is just like a memory read, except extra data (the value to be swapped, aded, xored etc) is sent with the address ... so that's like a write.

AMO instructions do not add any new complexity or state sequencing to the CPU core, compared to simple load/store.

I use TileLink as the example bus, as it was co-developed with RISC-V at Berkeley, but may RISC-V CPU cores can use AXI (or both), and Arm has recently added similar capability to AXI.
I understand some may say "classical" ML but to me, those "few parameters" methods are very helpful in many cases and much easier to interpret than RNN :-)
No, I don't store or read your data. State is managed using your browser's local storage. The caveat being that the tool uses GPT-4, so your data will be sent to OpenAI via an AWS Lambda function.

However, upon purchasing PitchPal you will also be emailed a compiled version of the app that you can run on your local machine, using your own OpenAI API key.

In case anyone was unaware, textiles were the original domain of punch cards [0]. (And the mechanical loom was an antecedent of and inspiration for the first general-purpose computer; and not coincidentally Babbage's concept, in the 1830's (!!), was to input machine code via punch card [1].

RGB lasers are already a thing for high-end projection. They have one picture of projectors on their website[1], I'll guess they are modified off-the-shelf ones with custom lasers. You can just barely make out the brand Christie on them, and that is a manufacturer who have laser projectors[2].

Considering their main focus is in the new primaries, it wouldn't surprise me if they just used the standard lasers for red and green, maybe even blue; sourcing suitable high-power lasers in some specific wavelengths might not be that easy.

Besides projectors, the other thing they seem to have done is a "dvled" (direct view) display, stuff thats maybe most familiar as those outdoor signage displays. This press release[3] has one blurry picture of their four primary led display

With humans, there is a lot of information available on how long a normal lifespan is. After all, people die all the time.

But when you try to predict a one-off event, you need to use whatever information is available.

One very valid application of the principle above is to never make plans with your significant other that are further off in the future than the duration of the relationship. So if you have been together for two months, don't book your summer vacation with them in December.
Actually this is only half true. Formal logic relies on words because some concepts, like finiteness, are impossible to grasp within the formalism itself. A good textbook on this is “Gödel's Theorems and Zermelo's Axioms A Firm Foundation of Mathematics”, which spends the early chapters dedicated to making you aware of this issue.

> Same rules as the article. The runtime prints Hello World without any input at all.

Sorry, I don't understand how the OS decides to load your "helloworld" runtime, instead of e.g. the .NET Framework 4 runtime, to go with your 0-length binary?

The program file created in the article has a valid PE file header, including a ".NET Directory" header section that tells the OS about the runtime to load. If you don't have an equivalent, how is your new runtime being loaded?

> You mean 16-bit console apps running in 32-bit OS, or 32-bit console apps using 16-bit I/O?

I mean on Win9x/Me, 32-bit console apps are forced to use 16-bit I/O. The 32-bit console APIs are implemented using 16-bit MS-DOS IO via the VCOND VXD and CONAGENT.EXE. There was never a 16-bit console API for Windows, so all 16-bit console apps were either DOS or OS/2 1.x. (NT originally could run OS/2 1.x console apps, although the support was withdrawn at some point; 9x/Me never could, except for family mode executables.)

> I only recently learned about "DLL surrogates" and Windows mechanisms for mixing 32-bit and 64-bit code by having 32-bit DLL proxied by a system-provided executable. I even wrote a DLL-proxying executable once, because the nature of legacy proprietary code is that sometimes you really need that 32-bit DLL the vendor, for whatever reason, refuses to rebuild for 64-bits...

That’s something I’d be interested to know more about. Microsoft put a lot of effort into ensuring interoperability between 16-bit and 32-bit code, but when it came to do the same for 32-bit/64-bit, decided not to

That "opinion" is well founded. Most people don't care about network transparency (to pick one example), and those that do can club together and keep X alive. Or write an extension for Wayland. Open source is easy in that it gives you many chances and ways to contribute!

Personally, I'd prefer those "LOOK IT'S MY DESKTOP OVER THE INTERNET" people kept their weirdness out of my compositor, but that's just my take.

It's never wrong to use a Sharp MZ-80K – what a beautiful machine! (BTW, there had been an actual 80-column punched card reader available for this.)

It may be worth mentioning that the tape storage of the Sharp MZ family of computers is exceptionally fast. E.g., transferring MP3 encoded media files won't do. This is also, why floppy disks were never a big thing on that platform, as tape was deemed good enough.

The Sharp MZ-80K (as indicated by its name powered by a Z80 microprocessor) was originally sold as a kit computer, but, unlike the more common variety, it came in larger pre-assemblies, like the entire monitor assembly, etc. (No soldering required.) Outside of Japan, it was usually sold fully assembled, often with RAM already populated to the full complement of 48KB.

That part is pretty clear.
Imagine how much manual work this used to be, back in the Edo period where the garment was invented.

I wouldn't change a thing, except the stuffing - it's a winter garment, so I would stuff it with wool instead of cotton, though that was of course not an option in the Edo period and still hardly is, in Japan.
I think characterizing it just as "make-work for software engineers" is too harsh. Just from a business continuity perspective there is a real benefit to being on a well-supported platform for which it is cheap and easy to source new parts. I don't know offhand how many punch card reader manufacturers still exist, but the competition is going to be a lot less than it is in (say) USB stick manufacturing.

It's a difficult thing to quantify, but access to stable supply lines is surely worth more than zero.
Multiple comments in the linked issue report not receiving an email.

The correct course of action is to shutdown the service and give people time to fetch data, not to erase the data as the first indication of shutdown.

A few emails are not sufficient if the end result is dataloss, a comment in documentation or release notes is not sufficient (the only reference at least one person in the referenced issue found).

I guess what's tangentially related is the tendency of AlphaGo (and friends) to favor an extremely likely 1 point win over a still likely (but not as much) 10 point win, making the endgame seem very non-human like.
