Smart of OpenAI to shut down a tool that basically doesn't work before the school year starts and students start to get in trouble based on it.

I think this upcoming school year is going to be a wakeup call for many educators. ChatGPT with GPT-4 is already capable of getting mostly A's on Harvard essay assignments - the best analysis I have seen is this one:

https://www.slowboring.com/p/chatgpt-goes-to-harvard

I'm not sure what instructors will do. Detecting AI-written essays seems technologically intractable, without cooperation from the AI providers, who don't seem too eager to prioritize watermarking functionality when there is so much competition. In the short term, it will probably just be fairly easy to cheat and get a good grade in this sort of class.
Why should funding Amazon forest sustainability be the world’s top priority?
>"reproduced in 100 laboratories consistently"

That's a pretty high bar. Everyone has their own threshold of skepticism, but if NREL announced next week that they followed the recipe and it was superconducting at room temperature, I'd be willing to bet money on it being real.
The entire idea behind technical analysis is that it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. The more people believe in a certain rule, the more that rule turns out to be true.

It might work that way with astrology too, but it's not so clear.

The S&P 500 isn't a fair comparison, but the Treasury one is. That's the risk-free rate.
Every ecoin created lets a small cabal amass the numerous low-hanging fruit before making it publicly available. If any of those ecoins became the World Currency(TM), that small cabal would be the new world elite, having created their immense fortune out of thin air. No ecoin will become trustworthy unless it assures every adopter gets the same initial opportunity.

Satoshi Nakamoto made a compromise by mining a fortune of easy bitcoin, then not touching it. A weak compromise, because the moment they use some of those coins, bitcoin will have one of its greatest crisis of trust.

AGI does not necessarily mean a post-scarcity world right away. You could have AI doing all jobs and doing them better than humans would, but still using finite resources and producing finite products.
It's Nature Communications, not Nature itself. Relevant quote:

Even if it is "all in your head" doesn't mean the problem will magically solve itself just by thinking about it.

The brain is a physical organ. It needs oxygen and nutrients, it reacts to all sorts of chemicals, etc... If it is "in my head", ok, but what is wrong with my head? Are my hormones messed up? Is oxygenation correct? Are the neurons in good shape? It you don't know what's wrong with my head, how do you know that's in my head?

If I understand you correctly, you believe that "micro behavior is unpredictable", thereby suggesting that technical analysis (TA) is not possible on shorter timeframes. However, you seem to allow for some applicability of TA on larger timeframes, such as the concept of a "positive trendline", a term that occurs quiet frequently in TA. That's an interesting perspective.
I see assertions in favor of a conservative (in the literal sense; a return to a lost past prosperous age) viewpoint, but no attempt to justify why these assertions are accurate or why the proposed solutions would be effective.

I think they show different buttons depending on your platform. If you visit from a mobile browser, it shows a "Get download link" button which asks for your email.

They presumably do this so that people can download it later from desktop using the emailed link. It's easy to mistake it as an attempt to harvest email IDs. The website could definitely use some text which indicates that it's Mac only at the moment.

Er... fine. But ... much stupider people have had similar success. I don't think attracting ambition is a worthwhile trait on its own and it's not something I'm going to praise him for.

Actually, if I step back, I don't even think that's true. Again, he didn't create any of these companies, nor did he run them alone when he was CEO. Many very intelligent engineers joined companies he was running because they believed in the product. They may or may not have even heard of him when they joined a given company.
Not OP, but California Air Resource Board gives a significant rebate and I know if you live in the Central Valley you can get another rebate. That's 10k+ from the state alone up to 120k income for a family of 4. Our local utility also paid for a home charger($500) and $500 towards installing the charger. Our utility also put a second meter on our power for the charger that costs a reduced rate to charge with.

It's a nasty habit for sure and even nastier of you don't smoke. But a smoker actually enjoys it and acquires/develops a taste for it. They can tell the difference in tobacco brands, etc. My Grandfather smoked for about 75 years and he rolled his own or smoked a pipe or both (at once sometimes). As a kid he always had that smell of tobacco that was kinda of pleasing to be honest. I ended up smoking as a teen and young adult but eventually quit so I can speak from experience. I look back now and think of how stupid it was and how it makes me sick when I smell it now but, that's not how you feel as a smoker.

Father who also smoked use to joke that it was the Indians revenge on the white man. We ruined them with liquor and they destroyed us with smoking. Best advice is to quit if you smoke or don't even start if you don't.
I can't find any reference to ice age in the article, nor to consequences for Europe, where did I missed them?
Let's imagine we stopped all C02 production tomorrow. How long it will take for climate to start going back to "sane" measurements?
There are things that when you are used to it, it just doesn't "taste" as bad as others experience it.

To you and me, we associate smoking with health problems so subconsciously we hate it a lot. We also never feel the "good parts" of smoking so our minds are entirely biased into the negative aspects of it. Meanwhile, a smoker grew up without caring about the health damages and they consider it fine to smoke and the cost is acceptable for the "good" a cigarette can provide.

In a way, this is similar to how I eat some very unhealthy foods a few times a week. They taste good but to some people those things are smelly and unappetizing and definitely too much oil and cholesterol in them to be called a balanced meal. I still eat them because to me, they taste good and I am willing to trade a bit of my health for that kind of enjoyment.
Didn't Renaissance Technologies made all their money from technical analysis? Who cares if it is simplification of something, if your goal is to make money, not understand it.

I really want this to take off and become a first party supported language for Postgres. Yes, yes, relational algebra is beautiful and all that jazz. SQL is a garbage, first pass design that should have been replaced decades ago. Even Codd has complaints about it.

Simply, Marsha is not Python. ;)

More seriously, in Python, types are optional and the exact behavior is explicitly defined at runtime, but the author of the code already had a behavior in mind when they wrote the code. Getting the intended type information from the user to provide to the LLM improves the quality of the generated code, which is actually somewhat lossy. The "intended type information" isn't "explicit type information", though. We support any character besides these four as part of a type `(),:`. That includes spaces and periods, so you can describe the type as a short sentence if you aren't exactly sure what the structure ought to be.[1]

And since in Marsha you don't actually write an imperative function body, argument names don't matter, only the argument order (as Marsha does not support named parameters, at least right now) so there's no argument naming in the declaration, which can make it more succinct than Python def lines in certain situations, though to be fair none of our examples do this.

This feels inevitable to me. All software engineering problems can be solved by the addition of another layer of abstraction.

Why not abstract away the "how" layer and focus completely on the "what" layer?

For a lot of data processing and integration problems, this would both eliminate a lot of work and increase reliability.
Also the tax law may be complicated and/or requiring on-the-fly reporting
Quite possibly. It does a lot of stuff in the background, maintains a large database (mine is ~3.5gb), and though you can back up the database, the app brilliantly won't let you decide where - so if you're running out of storage page and want to add an SD card, Signal won't let you store your backup there. I've gone from being an evangelist for it for several years to hating it, because the people who work on it seem to have little interest in their users and just want to play with feature toys.
Does anyone in the twin cities area want to pair up and try to make this? Might be a fun group project.

/e/OS changes the connectivity check from Google to their own server, great, but then it still connects to Google services via microG. So why bother changing the connectivity check?

Your comment was recommending an operating system that is actively harmful to its users by falling behind basic security updates that every single other OS has done.

A simple solution would be to eliminate subsidies on corn, soy, and sugar -- and transfer all of that funding to subsidies on fresh produce. Basically, subsidize many small, local farms that produce real food, as opposed to subsidizing massive corporations that farm the ingredients for cheap, processed foods.

High quality produce should be cheaper than a bag of potato chips. Unfortunately, in many parts of the country, people don't even have access to fresh produce. It's a real problem. The solution is simple, though certainly not easy.
Speaking of which, I recently saw this: https://rogerpielkejr.substack.com/p/what-the-ipcc-actually-... which is kinda a review of what IPCC report says about "extreme weather".

For me, this summary is a lot different than the way I see this aspect talked about in the media (and on Twitter, etc) even by climate scientists.
the last clockwinder is neat
The whole point of TA is to create a distributed pump and dump. You tell everyone to take some action when something behaves a certain way and you will have made some percentage of volume predictable.
Indeed, the byline mentions that it is "Open Access"

I didn't say European attitudes were responsible for workers' rights in the US being bad: that would be a hell of a cause. It's just extremely tiring when Europeans come in to flex their workers' rights super smugly like this <3 – yes, we know it's bad, we don't need someone to come rub it in every time.
"Conclusion

Timing of the critical AMOC transition is still highly uncertain, but increasingly the evidence points to the risk being far greater than 10 % during this century – even rather worrying for the next few decades. The conservative IPCC estimate, based on climate models which are too stable and don’t get the full freshwater forcing, is in my view outdated now. I side with the recent Climate Tipping Points report by the OECD, which advised:

'Yet, the current scientific evidence unequivocally supports unprecedented, urgent and ambitious climate action to tackle the risks of climate system tipping points.'"
With everything I have to manage in my infra, clickhouse is another db I don't want to add to the list of moving parts, so I settled with Umami, which uses postgres, which I already use for most of my projects.
>Why is smoking different to you, or to the policy-makers who decided on that in the ACA? I don't really get it.

Smoking became the boogeyman in the early 90s. Everyone was brainwashed that smokers are weak/evil/a drain on society/less than/low class people and should be taxed until they stop being addicted somehow.
Where I work (US) there is a monthly surcharge applied for smoking, which you must opt out of each year with an affidavit that you are a non-smoker.
> Punishing the people who are suffering from addiction with a tax isn't ideal

the world lacks accountability and this perspective perpetuates it

there are consequences for your actions and the majority should not suffer for the minority's idiotic habit.
So, targeting other languages is on our roadmap, and we have found higher reliability when we stick to a functional style with Marsha, so I think Haskell will be one of the "good ones" amongst target languages, eventually.

But we are focusing on Python first because it's one of the most popular languages on the planet and many LLMs out there are able to generate high quality code for it, while less-used languages tend to produce worse results. Haskell may or may not need a manually-tuned LLM to generate solid results.
What you’re talking about is personal responsibility. While I agree with it, I would have to say singling out tobacco users is not right. Drinking alcohol, having high sugar or fat diet, eating processed food, having a desk job, never exercising, working in a job that exposes you constantly to carcinogens, not having enough money for preventative healthcare and a lot of other things can impact your long term health, should we also start punishing those actions?
1% of 11 billion is $110 million.

To go from a million to a billion, you multiply by 1000.

Same to go from 1 to one thousand or one thousand to one million. It’s also easy to remember since the commas are every 3 decimal places.

1/1000 is equivalent to 0.1%, not 1%.
Thought this was interesting because it talks about how Tokyo works not because of explicit infrastructure or laws, but because of social norms that encourage people to behave in ways that better the city. Living in an American city, it's very common to see people behaving in anti-social ways: littering, parking illegally, driving aggressively, etc., and the "solutions" for these problems tend to involve legislation/surveillance/prohibitive infrastructure. It's encouraging to see that humans are capable of better patterns--if only we can cultivate the culture to achieve them.
Not a 100% AFAIK, there's some sentiment analysis on news as well and I suppose every other piece of machine-interpretable piece of information one can get their hands on. Along with human guidance still.
The point was more to see what the overhead is for CPU-bound tasks that do need to switch, not that this is the best approach for this particular task. I just happened to have the threaded version available, so I thought it made a good point of comparison.
Plus smokers can switch to a vape with basically no downsides and eliminate probably 80-90% of their risk.

CNN has done so much to tarnish their reputation that my gut reaction is to distrust the information they discuss simply based on their past behavior.

The existence of players that generate high-sharpe consistent returns is a sort of empirical proof that the market is not actually random (although these tend to be relatively short term trades, I.e. < 1hour holding periods, turnover portfolio multiple times a day, etc).
They can play with semantics all they want but the point of WEI is so the server can tell apart modified and unmodified browsers at which point the server can tell modified browsers to go away.

It should not be required if you do not want sync across devices, bug reports, etc (or if you just want to copy the configuration by yourself instead).

Alas, might not work with Epiphany because there's no complete extension support.

But IIRC, it stores its urls in $XDG_DATA_HOME/epiphany/ephy-history.db - so a bit of sqlite and ArchiveBox might do the trick for you.

Note: I'm running something similar, but find that I'd rather not rely on my history, I tend to click on a lot of garbage ;) You might want to curate a bit.

And yet we let billionaires exist with their idiotic perchance for hoarding wealth and the rest of us suffer greatly from the wealth disparity. There are consequences for their actions and the majority should not suffer for the minority's idiotic habit.
If I went through the threads I bet I could find a number of such claims of excessive goodness, not backed up by anything. It just feels dishonest, and worse, it unbalances a serious discussion we need to have.

Additionally, if those who have been through that experience and think so highly of it (as I have and do, not saying it is necessarily pleasant but it was very valuable), that would tend to be evidence that they might be a good thing. But do those same people to accept there might be a positive? :( Take a guess. We need to have the discussion, and people need to be able to change their minds. But it's just not happening.
Yes. Usually, I come here only for the linked articles and read some discussions, but don't write. But this was too interesting to not comment, so I had to create an account.
