When we talk about tree search we allow for backtracking, so if a node has 3 children all 3 will be explored generally, or at least a subsample of the children will be, in LLM sampling you generally pick a single token/child and then just go on with that until the end of the generation.

If DeepMind is indeed doing something similar to AlphaZero to language modelling one would expect they would generate multiple "rollouts" from the current context and then use some kind of function/network to predict which next token will lead you to the best final generation and then output that token. How to do all of that using a sensible amount of compute is what remains to be seen
The Iceland plant will pull 4000 metric tons of CO2 / year, so my toilet-paper math says we're going to need at least 9 million more of these plants to achieve net zero.
Fair point! This is pretty similar to the back and forth of Donbas, Ethiopia and Sudan.

> tasteless on the inside

Blueberries are enormously flavourful but I know what you mean in that occasionally I have come across blueberries that are seemingly grown for size and not taste, and seem bland and barely tart at all. (I've experienced the same with other fruit as well, such as strawberries)

But yea if you think blue berries are tasteless you need to get some actual good blueberries. Unfortunately you've been eating the bad stuff!
I don't know but maybe we'll start to see the earth cool a little :)
I remember reading that fungus gnats are a sign you're overwatering your houseplants. (Water uptake is correlated with photosynthesis, indoor plants don't get or usually need much light). I just did a quick internet search and it looks like the popular advice for fungus gnats is still the same - water less. It'll also prevent root rot.
is it an accident though?
They are

There are many different types of American blueberries. The Reka and the Blue Ray, for example, couldn't be more different. (I strongly prefer the Blue Rays, but I'll gladly pick Rekas when the season opens.)
> But retail trading: They’ve figured out how to plow a field with a spoon.

Have they, though? Or, perhaps a better question, who is "they" and how do they make a living retail trading?

Aren't most successful retail traders successful by being on the correct (lucky) leg of the random walk?

I have been under the impression that the ratio of successful to busted retail traders is quite close to zero.

From my experience (with homegrown berries) I would disagree; it's probably just that farmers have to optimize for "will not go bad on the way to the store".

Maximum size and number of berries are determined by variety, and largely trade off against each other, though (probably climate dependent) some varieties just don't seem to do well at all.

Actual size and sweetness is determined by how much water you give them and how long you leave them on the bush. Optimal picking time is determined by: go down and see when you think they're ready, then wait 2 more weeks before actually picking them; there should be just a handful starting to go bad. With some (but not all) varieties, you can also go by feel: if barely touching the berry makes it fall off, it's ready.

If you only have a small number of bushes and they aren't fully enclosed, the birds will eat them all before they actually ripen. At commercial scale this isn't very significant since the area can't support that many birds for the rest of the summer.

Very neat indeed.

It says on the about page that it starts a container on demand and gives you the output.

You can see in the output that systemd detects it is running under podman.

No idea what kind of container as a service they are using, and how they secure/lock it down. Systemd is a pretty powerful system, you can make it execute pretty much anything...

Both explanations are probably correctly.

This is a bullwhip effect, but that does cause a real build up in inventories and contraction in demand during the down part of the cycle.

And this will be concurrent with the higher rate environment and contraction in homebuilding and other sectors caused by Fed policy.

And so the TSMC warning is likely is forecasting a brewing recession, precipitated in part due to bullwhip effects.
Don’t forget - everyone telling anyone who has issues fitting into this system that something is defective with them and the problem is them. Even though the system is new and very different from traditional lifestyles and education.

Tales of Maj’Eyal does a great job of streamlining the roguelike gameplay loop without dumbing it down. And it’s GPL licensed! Amusingly it has some pay to hoard mechanics if you play with the official servers. I’ve thrown about a hundred euros to the author that way because I like the idea of supporting free software game dev and it’s just a fun game.

> you only need trivial software to get by

I'd like to see the smug suckless crowd write anything resembling a modern 3D multiplayer video game today, from scratch, using OpenGL (oh, because Vulkan is 'bloat'—extremely ironic take, given Vulkan is closer to the metal than OGL), C, and their various collections of UNIXisms.

I'll bet they'll just dismiss video games as 'bloat' and mindless time-wasters, and 'you shouldn't play video games, just write code.'

I dislike this sort of dogmatic thinking. Use what works, use what is practical, use what is easy, use what is reasonably efficient and fast without being extremely complex. For me, oddly enough, this sits squarely in the 'sucks a lot' group of things.

I write my code in VS Code and Visual Studio on Windows, using CMake. I use C++ if I need native performance; otherwise, I use C#. I use LaTeX only if I am writing a complex paper or report which needs detailed typesetting, nice graphics, long bibliographies. Otherwise, I reach for Word.

I think XML is a great markup and serialisation tool, especially if one has a fully-conforming schema and code generator. JSON, YAML, TOML, etc. are all generally inferior to XML, by virtue of missing features that XML has. Proof by example: large, complex APIs (OpenGL, Vulkan, WinRT) are usually released in XML, upon which code generators may be built for different languages to generate projections in said languages. If these languages have reflection, one could even write the generators in the languages themselves.

I know the author, quite correctly, rules Venus flytraps out, but for the sake of argument:

I used to keep some just for the sake of it, not at all to hunt bugs because that won't scale. In humid Buenos Aires, I tried both indoors and outdoors and... they are pretty hard to keep, aren't they?

You must water them lightly with distilled water. You must NOT let them flower (it's hard to overstate this, but it's true and I verified it first hand: the plant sprouts a single flower once a year, and if you don't prevent this by cutting the stalk ASAP, a single ugly white flower will sprout, and then your flytrap will die of exertion). You must not overfeed it. If it catches a bug on its own, chances are the "trap" will turn black and rot.

They seem to be very hard to keep outside their natural swamp environment...
According to Wikipedia's list of animals by the number of neurons (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_animals_by_number_of_n...), 800k is around the scale of a bee, or a cockroach.

The smallest mammal on that list is the Little Free-Tailed Bat, with 35,000k.

This feels like something helpful to use in beginning to calibrate one's thoughts about how much mind is capable of running on that many neurons.
Sure it's there, but having to wade through a large history of experiments tried and failed when trying to answer why this thing is here right now just feels subpar. Definitely sometimes it's helpful to read the commits which introduced a behavior, but that feels like a fallback when reading the code as it exists now. It works, but is much slower.
That certainly helps, but doesn't really solve the problem. With that logic, every time you water, even infrequently, is a chance for them to come back.
I don’t think this voice is emergent, it learned this from its training data. If you gave me a video game review script written by ChatGPT and another one written by Ganeranx, I doubt I’d be able to tell the difference. They both have a style of just vaguely referencing lots of different things that different people have said without really saying anything at all or offering any concrete opinions.

I'm not going to win points for defending a megacorp, but if this person wants to self-insure (and owns his home outright), then he would be entitled to do so. But until the mortgage is paid and he is able to self-insure, the insurance company sets the rules.

Put differently, if a fire were to happen and this open air mechanics/tire shop were to ignite and destroy the three neighboring properties, is this homeowner entitled enough to pay all damages caused by his negligent storage of combustible materials?

[edit] Plenty of notice should have been provided so the property owner had an opportunity to address the issues found, which may or may not have happened. We only have one side of the story here.

I have to admit that as I read this, I had recently awoken from a nap and in my stupor following that nap, I was somehow replacing Dan Brown's name with Tom Clancy's.

Nevertheless I completely enjoyed the blog post and got a good laugh. It was only after reading through a number of the comments that I realized my mistake, and had to laugh even harder because some of the same things could have been said about Tom Clancy's writing.

And in fact, I really do think that most of these things could be sent about any successful writers works. It can also be said about musicians, artists, and probably the guy who washes your windows too.

That is say, their works are all derivative, are formulaic in nature, and probably involved Windows at some point.

I tend to discuss things in terms of the trunk, branch, and leaves.

Mostly in that the leaves of your system (parts that nothing else connects to or builds on) are generally a low risk place to try new things sometimes. If you do run into any intractable issues, it’s also an easy spot to pluck it off and replace it.
Not to be too condescending here, but this article is honestly trash.

> Corporate workers who are either too afraid or lazy to go to the office are having a significant impact on the economy

I don't really owe my employer anything. To feel bad about waking up and sipping my coffee in the comfort of my own home 5 minutes before standup instead of commuting in traffic, not being compensated for it whilst also contributing to environmental pollution is incredibly strange.

Overall, this article sounds like it was written from some salty and unintelligible realestate investor drinking the corporate koolaid. It references some McKinsey "research" study and fails to even cite the source or what the analysis was outside of alluding to the layman being responsible for wiping out almost 1 trillion dollars.

At DOSYAGO, we're definitely concerned about this. We see concerns of Alphabet’s Web Environment Integrity API Proposal, we see a potential threat to the very democracy of the web. The danger isn't merely about preserving the ad business model, but the potential for market monopolization by Google Chrome. Yet, the beauty of open source presents us with hope and solutions.

As creators of a competing open-source browser, we're stirred by this. We're concerned about the future integrity of browsing - whether run remotely, headlessly, or semi-automated, we see all these threatened by such attestations. But we believe in the power of the collective, and the spirit of innovation that thrives in the open-source community.

The conundrum is real for Alphabet, but leveraging control over such a global, ubiquitous means of access cannot be the answer. However, we don't advocate a future where Google cannot derive value from its creations. The economic balance may be hard to find, but technically, solutions will emerge. We're committed to standing up for the future of the web, because we believe in its open, democratic potential.

Now, more than ever, we need you to join us in safeguarding the web's future. Come, contribute, and be part of the change. Visit https://github.com/dosyago/BrowserBoxPro today. Stand up for an open, fair, and free web.

Tangent: in my undergrad, Bill McKibben was the “faculty advisor” for us on the xc ski team. I never really figured out what this role meant other than they were faculty, and liked the sport… but oh man did Bill love XC skiing. He was out skiing on the smallest amount of snow in November until the last patch melted in April. If you could have measured his enthusiasm for sliding around on snow compared to us who spent so much of our time focused on it, it would have been no contest.

I was thinking it’s not actually an obvious choice for controlling hardware. It was either an interesting choice that was small and didn’t need a lot of components, compared to the obvious PLC. Or it seemed like an obvious choice to someone that didn’t know better.[1] Either way, someone probably made a good decision to keep the old system maintainable by emulating the palm pilot instead of replacing it.

Mind you, it’s not clear how much of the control is done by the palm pilot. For all I know, it’s not much more than a screen connected to a PLC. But my gut feeling is it’s actually doing at least some of the control to be worth emulating and keeping the original software.

[1]You see this a ton now, with people reinventing the wheel using arduino, raspberry pi and spark fun parts to automate something in the small business they are employed at. Because they know these things as hobbyists, but they and anyone around were never exposed to PLCs. Soon after they leave, a newer employee will rebuild from scratch, maybe using ESP32. Overall the lifetime cost is probably much higher. Meanwhile a PLC from 1990 is fairly easy to maintain, repair or replace (including porting the software).

> Following from that, if you were to train on the outputs of the AI, you may not be guilty of copyright infringement in terms of doing the training (both because AI output is not copyrightable in the first place, something which seems pretty set in precedent already, and possibly also because even if it was, it gets established that it is fair use like any other data), but if it means your license to the original code is revoked

Majority of the time, the code and weights are under independent license terms-while in theory the code license could say it is revoked or revocable if you violate the terms of the weights licenses, I think such a license term is rare in practice.

It is quite common even when the weights are under a restricted license for the code to be released under a standard open source license, and no open source license contains such a license term (and it would probably make the license non-open source were it included)

Direct Deposit. The banks can see the incoming transaction before the amounts clear. Payroll often starts the process two days early anyways since they try and get it to land on the 1st and 15th or whatever the dates are, so when the bank sees the incoming transaction it'll just automatically give me the funds while the clearing happens in the background.

Its honestly the same kind of logic they're using when you deposit your paycheck and it seems to clear turbo fast.

In fact, Edge is a perfect example of "nobody caring about your tiny fork": No matter what Microsoft tried, the internet no longer cared about Trident and IE/Edge. The only way Microsoft could regain some semblance of existing was to turn IE/Edge into Chrome and play the internet game as Google dictates.

Nowadays Edge has some superfluous features that differentiate it from Chrome, but they are still superfluous. Underneath it's still Chrome, because the internet demands Chrome.

And cars are very maneuverable -- can stop, start, and turn in seconds; and can safely pass within inches of each other. (Most) cars also have one human each paying full attention to where it is going and controlling its path.

Satellites don't have so many degrees of freedom.

A bad way to extend the cars analogy is to compare with people. There are 8 billion of us and we walk around all the time but almost never get damaged by running into each other.
