I'll take it, but I wish 16 continuous years of education were not required for basic life success. Germany seems to have a better system where schools teach useful job skills and paid apprenticeships help refine these. Especially for foster youth, it seems important to have some income as well as place in society as soon as possible. Provided they can even get into a college in the first place with limited opportunity to focus on academics.

The TLD .org was originally for non-profits, to distinguish them from the for-profit companies found over at the .com TLD. In the beginning, you had to prove nonprofit status to get a .org domain.

That’s no longer required, but still there was a big fight a few years ago when the .org registrar was set to be sold to a private equity firm. It’s the TLD of choice for nonprofits, as an echo of that early restriction.
>It's fucking insane that US citizens are now advised to make sure a family member, friend, or attorney is aware of you traveling across a US border in case you're detained.

You have always been advised to leave emergency contact information with someone when traveling abroad, and also to register with the US embassy at your destination if it's an extended stay. Most people don't bother because usually nothing happens and they come back in one piece, but who knows if some deity of the day decided that this was your turn to get fucked, after all?

This is all just long standing common sense grounded in practical reality.
The main problem with OAuth is it's a three party system.

You have an API provider service, an API client service, an a human telling the provider that the client should be allowed to access a limited subset of data on the provider service.

That's fine in cases where you actually need three parties involved, e.g. an API that allows access to a user's photo library stored in the cloud... but that's not every situation and if you can avoid it, you should.

A simple two party system, where the API provider authorises the API client, is vastly simpler. And just as secure (more secure even, because complexity is the enemy of security).
This is also an issue in Android and desktop browsers. I've also seen some websites actually go to extra effort to prevent autofill from working.

There is a weird pattern with Elon Musk, it's hard to understand who he really is and what is his goal..? [1,2,3,4]

I wouldn't be surprised if in 10 years from now we'll read similar stories like how the CIA infiltrated both google and VISA for control and mass surveillance, or rather spying activities worldwide [5, 6], but this time with Tesla/SpaceX and whatever his Cryptocurrency bank will be called

It would be naive to think the CIA wouldn't anticipate and prepare the digitization of the society

Virtualbox has been controlled by Oracle since that company's acquisition of the former Sun Microsystems in 2010.

Oracle has a remarkably chequered past regarding its hosting of Free Software projects: OpenOffice, OpenSolaris, Mysql, and AFAIR several Apache projects, off the top of my head.

Virtualbox itself has been somewhat closed down / restricted over the course of Oracle's tenure.

This could well be an early indication of further such moves on Oracle's part. That's very decidedly not clear at the moment, but would well bear further observation.
Hello and thanks for the great suggestion!
May I ask if you would prefer having -/+ buttons in the toolbar, or in the menu instead?
This is soul-sucking, dehumanizing, and demeaning on a million levels.

Really, the problem with this stuff and everything like it is that our current system is automating things purely on the basis of how easy they are to automate. It's just like that old joke about the guy looking for his keys under the streetlight because that's where the light is.
You don't need a lot to run things that can do simple sentiment analysis, or translating natural language statements to some API call. You can do a lot of the things that were initially promised with things like google assistant or siri through fairly basic models. They don't need to be able to write code and translate between 100's of languages to be useful. More importantly, they could significantly reduce the amount of server-side strain when it comes to collecting personal info from peoples conversations etc, which I imagine is the real incentive.
Wait, so it was never even confirmed or actually leaked by OpenAI that they're using a MoE model? That was just invented by some blog? I've seen it mentioned everywhere as though it's true.

I think it's likely they're using a technique that is similar to or a descendant of the Tree of Thought technique, because in Karpathy's talk where he was not allowed to discuss GPT4s architecture so he had to discuss only information in the public domain about other models, he pretty strongly indicated that the direction of research he thought people should pursue was ToT. In the past, Karpathy has communicated basically as much as he can to try and educate people about how these models are made and how to do it yourself - he has one of the best YouTube tutorials on making an LLM up. I suspect that he personally probably does not agree with OpenAI's level of secrecy, but at minimum he shares a lot more information publicly than most OAI employees.
Got it. I will try to make them more self explicit :)

I believe a decent fraction of forum posts are bots

WITH THAT SAID:

I think in this case a lot of people are just genuinely happy that there's a prominent Hollywood movie that's a fun comedy and not yet-another marvel style movie.
I’m sure you’ve heard of Google-fu. Someone is better at searching than others. I believe they propose that LLM can be superior at producing search queries. Whether they succeed, that remains to be seen, but the idea isn’t that baffling.
I think this does deserve to be its own thing but the code (https://github.com/aCosmicWave/blocktherich/blob/main/blockt...) is very un-optimized. Should just construct a single regex up front.
I wonder what % of wikipedia articles do have substantial portions of AI-generated text by now (and is it really a problem, providing the information is accurate - in fact in most cases I can't even imagine caring too much either way if something's written by a bot, but I do care if it's hallucinated BS).
> Half the power of LLMs as they currently exist is that they can often extract the intention of the user's question in a way that search engines usually can't

I don’t know about that. Google is pretty good at including “similar” questions that others have asked to what I have queried and often that’s exactly what I needed.
Using the backspace key to go back is a massive PITA in browsers that have that keybinding set. Have accidently lost form input by pressing backspace, so frustrating. Backspace should only delete a character in a form and not go to a different page.

I would look at JH7110, released earlier this year, used in VisionFive 2, Star64, as well as PineTab-V, and with an excellent official effort towards upstreaming software support[0].

I own a VisionFive 2 and can recommend it.

There's also the TH1520, a newer chip that's a bit faster and has pre-spec V extension. This is available in the Sipeed Lichee Pi4A, but the support for this chip is very green still.

CPU-wise, JH7110 performs between rpi3 and rpi4. TH1520 is faster than rpi4.

Else (GPU, I/O, cryptographic acceleration, hardware video codec acceleration and other peripherals), they are both significantly faster than rpi4.

When things like this usually go wrong with an automated tool, it's not that it "fails", it's that it succeeds part of the way, leaving things in an inconsistent state, which is then hard to reconstruct in either direction.

But you're right that it should be possible to build such things in a way that works well and very rarely screws up. But just that I don't really know of any tools that try to do anything more complicated than `rebase -i` seems to suggest that it is not easy to do, or there would be more people doing this.
This depends on the school. One of my kids is at a college where there are very few if any itemized extra fees, not even room and board (all students live on campus). Another went to a school where there were at least half a dozen fees in addition to the tuition, as well as room and board.
This is a fantastic way to respond to an old comment.

Really interesting analysis. Thanks for sharing this!

I'm a little bit incredulous reading this statement. In no world are those outlets in the same ballpark as Russian or Chinese state media.

Just because a new source has a tendency towards bias, doesn't mean that it isn't reliable. There are a small handful of news organizations that make a best effort towards the truth - and WaPo, NYTimes, and WSJ haven't won as many Pulitzers as they have by being unreliable.
> The way dynamic linking is done on UNIX-like systems has always seemed odd and a bit of an afterthought to me, and that explains why --- the actual loader in the OS kernel itself knows nearly nothing about dynamic linking. Instead it "redirects" execution to a loader (which is itself not that different from any other static binary) to do that.

This makes it much easier to evolve the system because kernel-land programming is harder than user-land programming. The trade-off is that the user-land run-time loader has its own bootstrapping complexity to deal with.
Yes I find I need to be fussy to avoid that kind of promo driven content. There is a place for both videos and written instructions. None is better.
It fits perfectly in the Unix philosophy.
It seems reasonable to me that if a child wants to get into the same trade as one of their parents, that parent should be happy to teach them directly and help them get work. If a parent is skilled in a trade, teaches it to their children, and vouches for them, that's not "without any credentials". That's a skilled practitioner vouching for having personally taught them, which is better than a university credential.

That's not just acceptable, but ought to be considered a moral obligation as a parent.

Astrology is pretty bad for the mind, structurally.

You end up constantly reinterpreting current events in a never ending backward-looking interpretation of signs and symbols. The only stable interpretation you can make is the one you have with you, when you walk away from astrology.
this makes sense as well, we already see some form of proto languages forming in stable-diffusion based communities.
I have several friends who were homeschooled for either most or all of their education leading up to college. All are completely fine.

Everything went wrong when lawmakers criminalized possession of drugs. All of this nonsense follows from a system where ordinary people are treated with suspicion and criminals are given exclusive access to a highly profitable market.

Al Capone and his ilk taught us the disastrous consequences of prohibition a century. Yet we continue making the same mistake with different substances.
Where the posts are that serious and actionable why aren't their authors being arrested or sued? S230 provides no protection for them. Why do you think civil liability for the platform is going to be effective where criminal liability for the speaker wasn't? Why won't the criminal threatener send an email or a letter where the platform won't have any opportunity to see it?

Why not assume the same bad actors would just use expanded liability as a weapon themselves? and that it would still be ineffective just as the existent non-platform criminal and civil liabilities are ineffective for the things you're concerned with?
The question is how to make money from LLM hype.
The terminology is a bit confusing: the ordinary linker used at compile time is gold, or mold, or lld, that outputs an ELF executable. Then, the dynamic linker, or dynamic loader, is provided by the libc and usually called ld-whatever.so. It takes the loaded ELF program as input when you start it, and processes relocations and whatnot before yielding control to the program's entry point.

The interface between the compile-time linker and the dynamic linker is mostly defined by the ELF file format, System V ABI, and processor-specific ABI: many of the details can be found in the elf(5) man page. So in principle, there isn't really a bespoke "ld.so ABI". However, in practice, this can break down a bit on the consumer's side; there was a ruckus a while back when glibc started only including the undocumented DT_GNU_HASH and not the documented DT_HASH for its shared libraries, under the premise that only libc should be concerned with interpreting ELF headers.

At least from the producer's side, the story is better, since dynamic linkers will generally at least accept the standard headers, and ignore any nonstandard headers they don't understand.
Currently the C code does not invoke Python and there is no way to pass a prompt. It does not need any special permissions.
Would anything prevent compilers from approaching it like SSE on Intel? Check for feature presence and enable the appropriate path (if using compiler-generated code).
That's not confirmation bias. It's just misleading.

The Supreme court is/will be bounded by the fact the inflation reduction act is law. This isn't like abortion where there is no federal law passed by congress and signed by the president.

I'm very happy to see this. And surely pricing transparency is good: we're gonna see just how this works.

Further I'm glad the US government is challenging corporate America. Corporations implicitly threaten the US public saying if minimum wage goes up they'll be forced to cut jobs. They implicitly threaten a leaner pipeline of drug advances if prices are negioated down.

Let's see how this cookie crumbles.

The US congress is explicitly tasked with the federal checkbook. Negotiating prices down is clearly in their purview and is consistent with agency they've always had. Has congress ever negotiated a price with defense, office supply chains? Has the congress solicited competitive bids on work? Then why not meds?
At first glance, this suggests typical desalination has a roughly 15% to 23% efficiency. Also, desalination from some sort of submerged membrane and bringing the freshwater to the surface would itself not be 100% efficient.
Drive-by, low-quality comment. Please ignore.

I applaud Hollywood, including Sarah Silverman and the unions currently on strike, for trying to fight AI. I think they're doomed, but good for them.

I don't see a scenario where Hollywood exists in anything like it's current form in 10-15 years. In the next 5 years, AI will be a huge help, allowing wonderful new content produced with much less work.

Beyond that? I fully expect that in 10-15 years time the value of the content owned by companies like Disney will approach zero. Mickey Mouse(ok, not the biggest asset they have now, but an example) will be replaced by Ricky the Raccoon or thousands of other characters generated by AI. They will all act out stories influenced by, but nothing like, much of modern storytelling. They will weave stories out of the lives of their viewers, producing a new form of media capable of dynamically interaction. The fusion of modern gaming and cinema, but personal and streaming endlessly, in an immersive format such as VR.

This future holds no appeal to me, and I find it repulsive, but I suspect the next generation will find it beautiful and irresistible.

Purely subjective, but New Age-y stuff had a bit of a renaissance in the 90s, then fell off around 2000 - 2016ish, and now in recent years astrology in particular is back in a big way.

What's new is that a lot of the recent interest in astrology among millennials / gen z is semi-ironic, but really only semi.

> The key thing that I think you are missing is that you are conflating miners with mining engineers.

Not at all - I'm talking about miners as in "all the people that work on the minesites that produce the overwhelming mass of raw minerals extracted ever year".

Mining engineer is just one job of many.

Electrians, boilermakers, diesal mechanics, storemasters, riggers, splicers, uphole drillers, control system specialists, machine operators (generally ticketed by machine class of which there are many), blast specialists, track and rail crews, . . . .

These are all skilled trades.

> To lots of the broader public, when they say miner they mean a guy that's all black from digging coal carrying a pick axe.

Yes, they do.

And that's essentially incorrect.

I'm pointing out that is incorrect .. and for some reason you're apparently taking issue with that correction.

I'm not offended that many people have many misconceptions about many things, occasionally, as above, I point out misconceptions and move on.

I am perplexed as to why yourself, an apparent self declared graduate of a school of mines that presumeably teaches some skill set, goes to such lengths to oppose correction to stereotype.

I'm starting to wonder whether in fact you've ever actually worked on a minesite.
Would love to read more about your time in NanoGPT. I've been getting familiar with it myself lately and it's still pretty much gibberish in the output with 16M, but the dataset is admittedly trash right now as well.
> Remember though, the US is one of only three countries (Eritrea, Myanmar are the other 2) that taxes its own citizens even if they have not lived in the US for years.

These are the kinds of things that can be changed relatively quickly if the government wanted to. I understand for people financially struggling now that isn't encouraging. But there are other factors like access to resources and people that are important.

It's those and the larger term trends that we see that can inform personal choices on immigration.

I know, anticipating hypothetical tricky legislation switches seems like a waste of time. I'm truly sorry I'm wasting your time on that.

>how did we do it for millenniums before frozen carbs?

We didn't. Child mortality was higher, populations were smaller, life expectancy was lower and malnutrition and starvation were more common.

Our current population size is the direct result of post-industrial farming and food production making calories easily available to the masses, and all kinds of foods accessible year-round.

But again, the problem isn't modern processed food, which can be perfectly healthy, it's an unwillingness to fund school lunches enough to provide more than cheap, empty calories.
Static typing, short of dependent types (and even then you have to use them to their full extent), does not obviate any form of testing unless your programs are trivial. For any non-trivial program, testing is still needed unless you're going to go through formal proofs (which could be embedded into dependent type systems). Otherwise, you can have something which type checks but which still contains logical errors.
Android (and most Linux distributions) is likely to settle for RVA22+V or RVA23 as minimum requirement.

There's a lot in there which RV64GC (ratified in 2019, I understand unchanged since 2017) lacks.

Some of the new extensions e.g. vector and bit manipulation do have a significant effect in performance.
