std::invoke I am guessing it could somewhat instantiate quite a bit of code? Not sure thoug. But it is a template signature. And it is not the only problem with pointers to members. When doing signature introspection you need a ton of combinatoric template specializations. Getting rid of a family of instantiations by sticking to deducing this seems like an attractive approach.
thanks for saying this. with popular media I think people can get nostalgic for a time that they never experienced and almost certainly would not enjoy.
Yes. Java promises (unlike C, C++, Go, etc.) not to have Undefined Behaviour as a result of data races, however you do lose Sequential Consistency, which means humans aren't able to successfully reason about non-trivial programs with data races.

More specifically Java says something like, if you race a value of some sort, even a complex value like a hash table, it doesn't get fatally damaged, but its new state is some state it had, or might have during other executions.
> an effect of specialization

It is also a specific purpose, a deliberate endeavour. We are in front of a world, we have to digest its phenomena, we try to understand it - it is a primal process, i.e. mental digestion. In some ways it could be argued that the "scientific drive" is anterior to the technical one: first you assess, then you act. Consistently, science started as "natural philosophy".

It is relevant, in the framework of "scientific drive as (development from the natural process of) mental digestion", that terminologically "science" is not just "the realm where false statements start to exist (and are tried to be avoided)" ("discriminate" - ex scindere), but also, before that, an activity of sorting, of "separating" conceptual elements - mental digestion. The "scient" (as a participle of scire, used as "to know") is a "distinguishing" mind.

We not only «desire to solve a puzzle» - it is our nature (as per the above) as minds dealing with a phenomenical world we need to grasp, as part of the activity of "seeing" it, already before action.

«Play[ing]» is a process that both allows to refine knowledge of the world, physically (in the physical play), and to refine the grasping of the world, mentally (in the mental play).

> growing complexity

Or just abstraction, enabled by a refined framework (following which, other areas become primary, topical - in the synthetic effort which is part of the above said process).

Again, that is fine. Besides getting an uncompressed 2 channel signal; anything above 2 channels is going to be compressed and frequencies carved out of the additional channels due to the encoding process. Thus a loss of fidelity. You "may" get a multi channel signal, but it is not 1:1. There are plenty of papers written about the subject since it's nearly a 50 year old technology.

I am not good in calculus and that's something I wish I did pick up when it came to it.

The harder thing was keeping the pressure up to pass the tests and in total, pass a course, while dealing with the severe discomforting exhaustion of coming in early in the morning for classes, having to understand rather complex abstract notions. I still cannot think when tired or even inebriated. But going through that was really to get that good pencil pushing job reserved for college graduates, no? :D

Instead, in the end, I like what I do and if the spirit moves me or need it for something, I would sharpen those calculus skills.

I think you are confusing Vale with Vala[1] :)

Except pretty much every American has an iphone? How many americans have macbooks? Ipads? So it's most definitely for the average american. I mean, believe it or not, that's what the average american wants.

Their image is one of exclusivity, but products such as the iphone, macbooks, ipads are actually mass-market products. It's quite a remarkable thing, that the most luxurious phone you can get from Apple is what... 1500 dollars? That's affordable when you think of other luxuries, how expensive can a watch get?

I think saying apple doesn't make products for the average american consumer is really falling for their marketing. They make products that are on the upper-end of what average people can afford but they put a lot of care into presenting these as clean as possible so that people feel like they are buying into luxury. They're not in most cases.

In terms of the phone market, foldables are probably the most luxurious products right now. A foldable will run you 1800-2000 dollars for a product that you know is not designed to last more than 2 or maybe 3 years. In terms of laptops, how many people really spec out their macbooks? I would say people probably buy in the 1000-1500 range and laptops are long-lasting products. A gaming laptop can easily cost 2500+ dollars and will depreciate much faster.

So, I respectfully think you're misreading Apple's demographic. Their demographic is pretty much every adult in America and they tap onto that aspirational mindset to achieve it; which is why people who can kinda see through the bullshit might come out with the sensations that are being described in these comments.
I already run «AI» (machine learning) apps on my old NUC… inferencing does not take that much power.
I basically 100% agree with this and this is the editor env I wish I could live in.

I think the debate still exists because editors/langs don't work like this and you end up having to compromise one way or another. Obviously, if we could do really fancy code folding / inlining / condensing based on arbitrary user defined filters everyone would just write whatever they wanted.

I guess code review might be the only place where people would still complain, depending on how that looked.
He got lucky. South America isn't safe for him either. Look what happened to Assange. The Ecuadorian government changed and they kicked him out of the embassy soon after that. He wasted all those years there for nothing.
The key point:

A key architectural feature to achieve this is the ability to fit all model parameters inside the on-chip SRAMs of the chiplets to eliminate bandwidth limitations. Doing so is non-trivial as the amount of memory required is very large and growing for modern LLMs

...

On-chip memories such as SRAM have better read latency and read/write energy than external memories such as DDR or HBM but require more silicon per bit. We show this design choice wins in the competition of TCO per performance for serving large generative language models but requires careful consideration with respect to the chiplet die size, chiplet memory capacity and total number of chiplets to balance the fabrication cost and model performance (Sec.3.2.2) We observe that the inter-chiplet communication issues can be effectively mitigated through proper software-hardware co- design leveraging mapping strategies such as tensor and pipeline model parallelism

I don't think the writers or even actors have as much leverage with studios now as they think they have. They've got so much content now they can just haul out their back catalogue and show that instead with no production costs and very little marketing spend. Longer term they'll just move more production overseas or use new technology like LLMs.
No, my point is that changing the implementation language of java wouldn't have helped here.

This seems like a pretty bad paper. Their headline claim that they are 300x faster than an A100 at serving GPT-3 uses obviously wrong numbers for how fast A100s can run GPT-3. They seem to have misread the DeepSpeed Inference paper and claim that the best throughput on GPT-3 sized models was 18 tok/s, but if you look at figure 8 on page 11 of the paper [1], it shows that they are able to achieve ~74 teraflops on serving LM-175B (GPT-3), which is about 211 tok/s. To calculate TCO, we can say 211 tok/s = 760,000 tok/hour and A100s are about $1/hr, so TCO per 1k tokens using that paper's method is about $0.0013, much lower than the $0.02 that they claim, reducing the claimed TCO advantage from 94x to 6.2x. Combine this with the fact that the paper they used is from a year ago and there are more efficient inference methods than there were then and the speedup probably goes even lower, maybe to 3x. This is without even looking at the chip design itself, whose costs are probably far underestimated.

And that MaybeUninit type uses an unsafe call under the hood as an escape hatch from the "draconian" compiler's rules. Every practical language has these.

No one is comparing Richard III to Barack Obama. They’re questioning whether Richard III was better or worse than his peers. Table stakes for a king through most of history is providing stability and peace within the realm. This guy failed to do that.

Yes exactly. I definitely sympathize with the other complaints: the newer Word UI is pretty garbage (I truly do hate the ribbon bar). There is a bit extra padding in the newer UI. But really, it all comes down to the PPI which seems obvious.

What's more, I feel like people aren't bothering to recognize that the newer UI shows the document as it would be laid out on a page when you print it. This is really helpful if you write documents to be printed. It seems clear that the newer UI, while there are elements I dislike, is more useful.

You can just install Linux on them and put them in your wardrobe.

But they might not be silent enough to not disturb you when sleeping.

Another con is that they aren’t rackmountable. So if you want to stack them you need to use some non-standard solution for that. And if a HDD/SSD fails, you need to order a replacement yourself, etc etc.

It’s totally doable. But is it worth the hassle? That’s up to you.

So forks are selected by users, via whoever gets the most stamps. As a user I'd have to:

1. Seek out forks of the app that I use and try them out.

2. Check to make sure there aren't any bugs introduced in the fork.

3. Check to make sure the author didn't introduce a subtle backdoor into the system allowing them to e.g. mint infinite tokens.

4. Check how many tokens the developer minted themselves as the reward for this work, to make sure it's not too many. (Do I actually care?)

Hope the majority of users are paying this much attention!

If somebody says stuff like this, then they do not understand math, imo.

Im a little bit sad whenever somebody argues for math by using "no phone available at the moment" argument.

Math is insanely powerful world modeling tool.

Starting from calculating right amount of fence for your garden, to estimation of 500km route arrival time while taking traffic statistics into the account, to data science, ML, whatever more complex.

Since math modeling is everywhere in "modeling" industries like engineerings, financial-ish jobs and other

Then you basically not only get better tools to operate (model) in real world, day2day life, but also it opens you doors to highly paid careers.

But the goal is not to have fancy jobs, but being able to do real world modeling.

It's common. Lloyds once charged me overdraft fees twice when I left England and my last debit came before my landlord returned my garanty. They then kept charging me fees for a sub-zero account every month for three months while my account was in the green before finally charging me overdraft fees triggered by their own mistake.

They didn't refund me everything once I pointed it. I'm fairly certain they did it on purpose hoping to siphon out an account with little use.

Banks are shameless.
You should work on an engine that adds punctuation to the subtitles. They are pretty raw as they come - they normally require some post-production to be made into structured text.

Probably something already exists? LLMs could be good for heuristically obtaining punctuated text - but since real understanding is required, other systems should be employed - such as a transformers based ANN (speech + raw_transcript → punctuated_text).

The issue of "real understanding" is that which should discourage «LLM [generated] summar[ies]» - I have not yet seen any that show actual understanding of the original. "No work" is often better than "bad work".

> We are in an era of individually well-designed, useful web applications, and they’re all unique.

This sounds pretty great to me. If the applications are well designed, they can do their own thing. I don't see why we need to conform to a centralized idiom. It's great that you can immediately tell which app you're in just from a glance. And also it's more interesting when applications have their own character.

I would say idioms should maybe play a role at a company level, i.e. it makes sense that Google products will share design principles. But I wouldn't impose the same principles to all applications just so it will be slightly more familiar to some people.

You're right, of course - it does indeed have the potential to increase cognitive expense. I would hope it would only increase cognitive load in the rule engine interface. But I would want that to be a GUI. I think I would prefer that to parsing custom code each time (that's the tradeoff I'm making).

I just get very frustrated reading other people's code that encode complicated rules that I need to decipher how they've represented the mapping of code to behaviour.

In corporate Java projects, I think what gets created is complicated structures and abstractions to handle flexibility and abstract over details that are harder to understand than the English explanation of what they're trying to do. WHEN X DO Y.

When people reach for the visitor pattern, controllers, inheritance, runtime reflection control flow and annotations and object proxies, overridden methods and so on. It's a overcomplicated bespoke dance about managing control flow and they're all different strategies but they do the same thing.

The idea is in early stages. I'm currently working on something else, I am trying to understand the control flow of a coroutine and yield.

False, natural disasters are happening more often and are more intense, leading people who didn't "encroach on Land" to suffer for it. Just look at the heat in large parts of Asia.

> False. This is a blatant lie as my comment states clearly, I believe the climate is changing. We are exiting an ice age.

Wrong. You know that is not my position, didn't act like you think it is.
> Essentially, you can think of either the fields being quantized, or the interactions with fields being quantized. Unfortunately almost all experiments measure only interactions with fields, so there's few practical ways to distinguish between the two. The mathematics is largely equivalent as well, so physicists "picked one" of the two options, and forgot about the other, equally valid option.

That's basically what Quantum Field Theory is though. Fundamentally everything is treated as a field, and we focus on the nature of interactions within that field, which results in particle-like behavior.
