Yeah I'd like something like that:

* 'Many'-core CPU (say 8..16 relatively simple cores, eg. RISC-V)
* A good, but modest amount of RAM (eg. few dozen... few hundred MB)
* Integrated graphics, but of a conceptually simple type, eg. a plain framebuffer + _maybe_ some blitter / DMA / scrolling / hw sprite support. Simple enough that a single programmer can wrap their head around it (vs. complex 3D GPU where hardly anyone knows all its details).
* Graphics outputting to common consumer display (HDMI, DisplayPort)
* Sound & some other common I/O

Roughly Commodore Amiga level complexity (at most! simpler = better), just modern fabrication tech & faster.

This would be perfect platform for all sorts of homebrew games, hobby / retro style OSes, educational, industrial uses & more.

But doesn't exist afaik. Microcontroller usually don't have built-in graphics, too little RAM, or otherwise aren't quite it.

A step up (small SBC) and you get loooaads of peripherals, 3D GPU, firmware & associated complexity thrown in 'for free'. Nice for running full blown OS like Linux, not so nice for wrapping one's head around that hardware.

I thought this to myself as well after seeing Oppenheimer. As someone else has mentioned, it was shown in Fat Man, Little Boy. Each movie had different things that were or were not shown. FMLB didn't have the football field. There's only so much you can put into a 3 hour film where at least 7/8ths are in focus.

Edit: Diving down a rabbit hole, it looks like the scene in FMLB was based on the Louis Slotin incident from May 21, 1946. So some creative licensing from the producers, and probably why it is not in Oppenheimer
Most of these tools treat the "local file" as a stream which can be a pipe to a network stream from the object store.

The files that are not streamed and need random access are often better on a local ephemeral SSDs or in RAM after a fetch of the, say, 50GB hash table, or whatever it is.

At least, that's my experience: streams and in-RAM pre-processed DBs are >99% of file IO.
There is a lot of mental gymnastic, to submit an artwork publicly on the internet, allowing everyone to copy your arstyle, make derivative art of it, have other learn from it, but if ever a machine 'learn' from it, it's "stealing". It's not because you don't like a derivative work, that the derivative work is "stealing" your content.
Saying it's stealing is wrong, it's lying to get your point accross.

You blame "how tech is going to steal everyone copyrighted works", yet, they were already in the tech world: the internet.
I’m aware that there has been significant progress. “Not a single mile of track being laid” makes it sound like there has been no progress.
People aren’t entitled to experiences. Back in the day, most people barely left their own towns. You might be lucky if you saw one great work of art in your lifetime. That’s what we must return to in order to keep places from getting over saturated with tourism.

No, "your," too:

Can I not do the same thing with Whisper to transcribe and then pipe the data into my LLM of choice?
personally i think yes. any opportunity to call out people publicly for disgusting behaviour presents a chance for people to learn. i think it's okay for people to be reminded that ugly ideas like fascism exist and are still current.

specifically on 'private platform' detail...it's a rather slippery slope to force people to host or not host particular ideas on their own property. it's easy to pick a couple topics that most people would agree are 'bad' and shouldn't be discussed, but where does it end?

i'm more in favor of publicly calling Nazis assholes wherever they show up.
Finetuning is more relevant than ever now. People are fine tuning LLaMA every single day.
I love the "draw chalk outlines around your feet so I can work on if you're going to die or not since we know I am" moment.
Depends on whether that "private platform" is more or less a commons.

One of the most insidious phrases we have in our hyper-online society is that the "internet is not real life".

Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc have profound effects on society and the notion that they are "private platforms" that have no responsibility to uphold our broad collective values is perverse.
They're toxic - people plant them because they're one of the only things deer won't eat. No need for a theory, this is common knowledge to this day.

The good news is that if this law passes, those people will all make a lot more money. OT would kick in at 32 hours instead of 40 and double-time would apply on Fri/Sat/Sun instead of just Sat/Sun (assuming you have a union that has negotiated a weekend double-time).

Right here the comment says they prefers Meta to keep the secret sauce as long as it allows they to (inderectly) access the copyrighted material etc. And the replies below are generally positive. So it's not a straw-man, at least in this thread, at all.
Your name is "Not sure". OK Mr. "Not Sure", please hold out your arm..
If people don't get to have experiences, then why should they care whether or not places get over saturated with tourism?
Go on youtube and type "copy arstyle".
Now tell me how artists were not stealing from each other.
It’s licensed access iirc so they’re getting some payment for it (which they deserve for their investment in building it out despite the odds).

They also charge a higher rate to non-Tesla EVs.

The other benefit is if they continued to refuse access they could have ended up like blackberry. The other companies would have adopted the CCS standard and (eventually) would have a competitive network. Then what was once a Tesla advantage would become more of a liability as the transition to EVs gets more complete.

Few companies make this strategic shift at the right time imo and I think Tesla did. By leveraging their advantage now it’s a win win.
Care to explain that? The fact that he's a superhero aside, how is his attractiveness unrelated to heritable traits? In this case, he's strong, good looking and charming, all of which have clear genetic and probably even epigenetic components.
Right. Assuming this paper is true, just knowing that a superconductor with a critical temperature over 100C can exist at all is a huge leap forward.

It should lead to a huge push to understand the physics of this new material and building better materials with more useful properties
Just seeing this now - as other posters have stated, I use the low concentration clothing treatment, the Sawyer brand specifically. It works very well and even seems to last for the time period advertised on the label (6 weeks I think).

Except it's code. Weight decides how the model works so it's code. Code is just you telling the computer to work.

You're telling me the * 3 + 2 part isn't code and only var a = b is code?
> That graph does not show cassettes were responsible for that, it just shows revenue numbers. There are other possible causes.

You don't mention any of these possible causes though.

what?

if you put forward a graph and someone else points out that the graph doesn't show what you say it shows, the person has identified that the graph is not relevant to the discussion.

they don't now have the job of explaining the graph. the graph is not relevant. it just leaves the conversation.
maybe if you're hosting replicas or proxies outside of a highcost bandwith area?

low cost end replicas at the end. if the bandwidth usage is half the cost in their multihop topology, 14XXXX compared to 16XXXX? depends on the number of proxies or replication and pricing.

I don't mean this to be cynical, but I do think that it's worth acknowledging that describing the problem is also, in itself, a tool to guide people towards a solution they want. After all, people often disagree about what "the problem" even is!

Fortunately not every problem is like this. But if you look at, say, discussions around Python's "packaging problem" (and find people in fact describing like 6 different problems in very different ways), you can see this play out pretty nastily.
I like the idea of software rasterization as an aesthetic (in the context of games, but demos are included). Caches are larger than the system memory of the pre-GPU days. Best of all, if you can write a plot function you’re a graphics programmer!
First: almost nothing is ever obfuscated.

Second: when you read source code, do you start at the lexicographic first .c file and just read downwards? No? Neither do reversers.
If they do this, we will lose the smartest members of congress. Hear me out via an example:

Consider Nancy Pelosi, who made $20M via trading in 2020. To have predicted the market would crash during otherwise good times and then rise during otherwise hard times, you would have had to be an economic genius. If we had banned our senators from trading, Pelosi would probably choose trading over guiding our nation, essentially employing her 200+ IQ to making money instead of making our nation great.

I say that instead of banning congress from trading, we should give them more power the better they are at trading, as doing so would ensure that the smartest congress members have their decisions more fairly weighted.
I wish I had something witty to add here, other than - "LOL". Thank you!
The article is exactly right. The tour is a river if people flowing through the prescribed route until you're vomited into St Peter's.

Fortunately, you can go out a small door on the other side and walk through the entire Vatican at your leisure. There are miles upon miles of museum that most people never get to see because they follow the river.

The Sistine itself is hopeless though because it's always crowded.

Still magnificent and not to be missed.
From the "leadership election" snippet, this setup looks perilously close to the peer to peer propagation of transactions and blocks in a blockchain system such as Solana. I suppose the latency requirements are much tighter than 400ms though.

I know Solana does mutual TLS over QUIC authentication between peers and does bandwidth rate limiting via stake. Also, the topology is self organizing. Is it worth copying this tech into a message queue system?

O'Connor's story is a complex one.

As with many people who've come from toxic environments and cultures, she was hurt, flawed, injured, and often contradictory. She suffered from mental illness as well, though whether or not that was a cause or consequence of how she manifested her experience is really unknowable.

It's been obvious to me even as a largely casual outside observer, and whilst familiar with some of her more popular musical performances, not a close follower of her work, that she was under immense pain and suffered greatly.

Her death this week is gutting though long expected.

Among many other aspects, what she shows is how one who goes up against the entertainment machine, against culture, and against long-abusive institutions all but inevitably pays in immense price.

And for her having done so I have none but the most immense respect, not despite, but because of the many ways in which that fight scarred and flawed her.

With a lot of the Apogee shareware stuff it was exactly like that, especially if you actually tried playing the registered version "other two episodes". Lots of levels that were filled up with stuff to collect and enemies to bop, but usually not a lot of experience design or specific tests of skill. Keen ranked better than average on this, especially the second trilogy.

Crystal Caves remains one that captivates people's attention though - it's very unassuming, no particularly strange gimmicks, but it has the right mix of stuff to be surprising and engaging. It even got a remaster on Steam.
It's really depressing that a handful of big corporations will be able to exert such control over labor and productivity

America still isn’t listening about the rampant sexual abuse in schools—which unfortunately isn’t any less in proportional terms than in the Catholic Church and is a much bigger problem in absolute terms: https://sites.law.duq.edu/juris/2019/03/16/catholic-priest-s....

My affluent, progressive private school had to hire a law firm recently to do an internal investigation, because of all the teachers that were abusing students in the 1980s and 1990s. There’s a larger conversation here about abuse by people in positions of power over children that we aren’t having.

I kinda like them actually. What I object to is the fact that they're used to BS people rather than address problems, and that often they're actively trying to fake out users.

The thing is that some corporations have a policy of lying to their customers. I once sat in a bank arguing for an hour with a branch and regional district manager about specious overdraft charges, until it reached a point where I itemized details of the charges and their increasingly contradictory/counterfactual statements on a sheet of paper and invited them to try out their act in a courtroom. At that point I received a large refund.

IF you build a chatbot that's designed to only ever say and do things that benefit the bot's owner, of course people are going to hate it and demand to be connected to a human or give up in frustration. If you make a bullshit-free one that is designed to resolve problems in a manner consistent with the UCC or clear corporate commitments (not a sub-sub-sub-clause on page 73 of a densely written TOS agreement that not even the CEO has ever read), then you might find customers like it.

Yep, i feel like i am just a bit skeptical. I would have just liked to see multiple chips out in the wild (from different companies outside of intel) using the intel fabs.
The gVisor sandbox doesn't provide direct access to the local file system of the host machine. It routes file requests over RPC to the outside Gofer server running on the host machine. The Gofer server reads the files on the host machine and ships the data back to the sandbox over RPC. This setup is understandably slow.

Linux allows one process to send an opened file descriptor to another process over a domain socket with the SCM_RIGHTS message [1]. The DirectFS setup is basically letting the Gofer process to open a file on the host machine and ships the file descriptor to the sandbox process. The sandbox can then read and write directly on the local file system using the file descriptor.

How the heck can this be securely isolated? Well, via the magic of the pivot_root and umount Linux commands. First, Gofer only sends file descriptors of the files permitted to be accessed by the sandbox, like the files under /sandbox/foobar/. Second, the Gofer process does a pivot_root to change its own file system root "/" to "/sandbox/foobar/." It then does an umount on its old "/" to make it completely unaccessible to any opened file descriptors. This prevents someone using the opened file descriptor to change directory to ../.., ../../etc/passwd or to somewhere in the old root's directories.

I believe this is how it works, based on the reading of the blog post.

Am new to these kernel space but isn’t writes operation more security at risk than Reads if it is why not break gofer into 2 categories one writes, one reads embed the one with reads with sentry user space, this may not show any significant performance in real world use but it gets both benefits
I didn't make my statement out of ignorance.

Most of these applications depend on OS optimizations that have been made over the decades; multithreaded readers, readahead, and caching are critically important to read performance. In principle, a remote storage system could be as fast as a local disk. This includes random access. after all, the storage system is just a bunch of drives attached to machines connected by networks.

When I worked at Google I wrote a mapreduce that converted BAM files to sstables which are sorted, sharded by key, and sit in an object store like S3. Once the files were in sstables (or columnio) we could do realtime analytics using modern tools.
A self guided wander at your own pace is something much more up my alley.

There was one Dear Abby column that has stuck with me decades later. An older person was debating going back to college, and the letter was something like "If I go back to school for four years, I'll be 60 when I'm done. Is that even worth it?" and the response was "How old will you be in four years if you don't go back to college?"

A lottery system is an alternative. Still need to generate enough money to cover costs, but could be done as a partial thing.

For instance, some national park areas in the US have lotteries to be allowed to camp in them. The fee is low, so it's not biased towards rich people.

A bit like how Billy Joel got tired of bored rich people in the front row seats, so he reserved them to be given to random real fans.
