I don't know about most people (and assume I'm the odd one here), but when times are good, I dramatically increase the amount I'm saving. Times are good, after all, so I can set more aside without increasing any pain.

When times are in-between good and bad, I save at a much slower rate (my baseline savings rate of 10% of my net income). Right now, that's what I've been doing -- but I think I'll be increasing the rate of savings here soon. Things seem to be easing.

When times are bad, I'm more likely to dip into my savings.

My saving rate isn't tied to where I think the economy will be tomorrow, it's tied to where my personal economic situation is in the moment.

Basically, I don't vary my standard of living according to the state of the economy. I vary my savings rate instead.

I wouldn't mind it, at times. I do wish it was less formulaic with it always asking if it got it right. :(

Really sucks, as that is a rhetorical style I also like to use. Asking "does that answer the question" is a very natural thing to want to know. And it can help keep me from spinning wheels even harder.

Constantly asking, "Is there anything else I can help you with?" is obnoxious.
You're changing the subject. The OP claimed that the CEO doesn't want people like him to exist. Such a thing was never expressed, so it's made up. A blatant lie. Be precise with criticism and accusations if you want to be taken serious.

When you've built your business on helping your customers use Shopify's product without your customer having to pay Shopify for it... it's a pretty reasonable request to knock it off.
Well it depends. Part of the reason I was/am comfortable carrying is because I have the appropriate professional training to do so safely. Both as a result of that training and as a matter of habit, it is possible to be cognizant of potential interactions and mostly not put yourself in situations where conflict is likely. In other words, part of responsibly carrying is to always be prepared.

In the event I find myself in such a situation anyway, there's a good chance the other party won't know I'm armed unless I want them to. As for the rest of the time, I think potential aggressors as both dumber and more emotional than you're imagining. I've never come remotely close to shooting anyone, but the times I've had to actively think about it were because I people were acting in a way that telegraph ill intent long before they were in a position to do anything to me.

No! Don't do it!

I'm sure there are rare cases where these techniques are useful. Like creating developer tools or making your own object persistence layer or winning a code golf contest. But if you're an app developer for goodness sake just write a few extra lines of code. Do whatever it is you're doing the verbose and clear way, not the slightly shorter and super obtuse way.

Stuffing method definitions into classes at runtime, monkey patching, dynamically generating method calls with .send. These will all be very puzzling for any future developer that works on your code, senior or junior. And come with bunches of technical pitfalls. Writing clear and maintainable code is a higher calling for us than reducing LOC and showcasing neat tricks. Even if you call yourself a Rubyist. Speaking from experience.

The thing is that those super large models with CoT are often much more reliable than specialized fine-tuned smaller models you'd like to use on trillions of documents, as I am observing right now. You are not trading just speed but also quality with smaller models. The only relevant use case for fine-tuning for me recently was to apply wizard dataset to LLaMA 2 for a less censored model and that was done using LoRA.
Look, seriously, you didn't answer the question. An eSIM consists of software. To say that eSIM is UICC is like saying that KDE is a Lenovo ThinkPad.

eSIMs are not HSMs and the GP shouldn't be muddying the waters. SIM cards aren't HSMs. They run apps! Smart Cards aren't HSMs. They have cryptographic functions, but they aren't HSMs!

An HSM is a very specific, physical hardware-based cryptographic device. You'll know it when you see it, and they're designed, labeled, and sold as HSMs with a price to match. No mobile provider is going to let you download no HSM for no $40. Crazy talk.

Holy crap, thanks for sharing this. It's the first time a conversational AI has impressed me. I can just about find the edges (short memory, relentlessly positive) but in the space of an hour it's given reasonably good advice on social situations, answered questions about how it works and even recommended some great niche bands based on my existing tastes. Just as you said, its knowledge seems to be extremely broad.

There's a contrast between Pi and the kind of chatbot discussed in the article. When we talk to Pi we don't expect it to do anything for us - it just gives advice and makes suggestions that we can take or leave. The resulting stream of tokens matches our expectations enough to satisfy us.

A chatbot on a company's website however, probably we are talking to that because we want something to happen. "Please fix my account", "my last bill was wrong" etc. As the chatbot isn't integrated with the company's processes it can't actually change the state of the outside world and so talking to it will be a frustrating experience. I wonder if this will improve if/when chatbots get better integrated with systems? Will companies even dare to do this for real?
I think it just depended on your family's circumstances. My father was a mechanical engineer, so we naturally had a computer in the house for his work.

What is virtualization to you?

This is absolutely disgusting and inexcusable behaviour from both the poster and Elon.
> just means that a later Congress can vote to repeal whatever laws that an earlier Congress had voted to enact

Laws aren't passed by the Congress alone. OP is confusing the law with e.g. the principle that says the 118th Congress can't adopt a House rule with two clauses:

(1) All Democrats must tape a weenie to their head, and
(2) This rule may only be changed by unanimous consent.

When it comes to laws, they can't bind the Congress (collectively) but they can bind its members individually. For example, the 118th Congress can't pass a law compelling the 119th Congress to pass something else. This doesn't arise out of any law, but is a natural result of, quoting Cicero: "when you repeal the law itself, you at the same time repeal the prohibitory clause, which guards against such repeal" [1].

My memory is fuzzy, but my recollection is that Pons & Fleischmann's non-discovery involved unclear "waste heat" measurements, and a setup that wasn't well described, making it difficult for other researchers to duplicate. That would seem to contrast with Sukbae Lee, Ji-Hoon Kim, and Young-Wan Kwon's work, where everything suggests they've provided a readily replicable description of the material and process, and the evidence (magnetic levitation) is going to be pretty obvious.
Because in every metric the economy is doing well.

When I left Bloomberg around 7 years ago Kafka was being aggressively rolled out and there was a lot of interest in data streaming tech in general.

I am wondering if they ran into performance or resource usage issues with Kafka at scale, and decided to roll their own for use cases that better fit their workloads.

Bloomberg does have vast backend infrastructure for moving around / computing data which the Terminal is a consumer of.
They actually open sourced it!

It's really tough for remote jobs. In-person jobs, on the other hand: people are literally reaching out to me (a first in my career) about on-site jobs but it's just not tenable for my lifestyle atm. So yeah I've been unemployed for nearly a year now.
I don't see how this makes any sense. An AC compressor is an extra load regardless of whether the motor is powered by gas or electricity. If it requires 10 Joules to run the AC for 1 minute, you need 20 more Joules worth of fuel. If turning on the AC didn't decrease gas mileage, then the efficiency of the engine somehow magically increased when it starts turning the compressor.

This same reasoning should also apply to charging your phone, cranking the bass, etc, because that represents an additional load on the alternator which must be powered by the engine.

Of course, turning on the heater in gas vs electric car is a different story, because the gas car is using the heat energy you mentioned that would otherwise be wasted.

"Mark Dingemanse, a coauthor of this report, had a particularly strong assessment of the Llama 2 model: "Meta using the term `open source' for this is positively misleading: There is no source to be seen, the training data is entirely undocumented, and beyond the glossy charts the technical documentation is really rather poor. We do not know why Meta is so intent on getting everyone into this model, but the history of this company's choices does not inspire confidence. Users beware.""
This is particularly noticable along the Pony Express Trail in the desolate areas of the west. Everywhere there is water there is a big patch of currants or chokecherries
I agree. For a language designed to appeal to grumpy old programmers (see the list of so-called anti-features), it’s not exactly arthritis-friendly.
You can say this about pretty much any car that isn't super basic like a Corolla. The uniquely Tesla thing used to be driving incredibly distracted due to the giant iPad in the cockpit, but other cars have that too now.
In Windows 7, you could switch to classic mode, which kills dwm.exe, and in my experience seemed to mean a snappier, more responsive desktop. I thought they removed this ability in Windows 8.
Ask HN: Why are Tesla negative stories muted on HN?
There were quite a lot of stories, mostly negative, about Tesla recently and it seems that most are actively removed from first page - todays one about Tesla range estimation “issues” is an example.

While removing articles about Musk and Tesla stock price seems like a good idea, the other ones (todays one, the one about German leak a few weeks ago) seem much more interesting to discuss.
They can learn about what Docker does with iptables the traditional way, by reading Docker’s networking documentation.

When I read 'Lotus Elise based EV' I wondered if this could be an old article about the original Tesla Roadster. Is there something special about that car that makes it attractive to build an EV out of? Is it just that it's small and light, or more than that?
> So what would the pros and cons be today and why is it a selling point?

I'm not saying they pulled it off because I would need to evaluate it, but having your own dependency stack can result in a much more streamlined solution for extra performance since you don't have to compromise to someone else's data model. As this is a high speed message bus, it's entirely appropriate.

These are also basically application-level network routers which really don't need huge levels of dependencies so to be honest I'd be running away from anything that claims it's written using 1000s of the newest, latest and greatest whatevers. Churning out a faster string grinder is what I'm looking for.

I fear an LLM that is trained to provide ad-based responses in ways that don’t clearly disclose to users that the answer is an ad. YouTube review video culture already has a huge problem with this and it’s not even AI-driven.

>I am here to tell you, no human wants to talk to your chatbot.

Well, I am a human and I most certainly do. I've had great success with Amazon's customer service chatbot, Meta's CS bot, and many others. Sometimes they do help me with what I need and it speeds up my workflow. Sure, chatbots don't always accomplish what I want, but their existence is a net positive for me. I have never once looked at a chatbot and said "If only I could use Siri instead". Never.
Surprisingly good read. Not because I thought John is going to wash dirty laundry, but you know, they went through some emotional things. His story is truly inspiring though. Very engrossing.

We’ve found that 1-shot or few-shot methods with 3.5Turbo or 4 are vastly simpler and exceeds the quality of fine-tuned models from the GPT-3 era.

We have some 100k context models too that can ingest entire documents.

So right now, I would say fine-tuning is probably only useful for a very narrow set of use cases.
I think the surface temperature rises faster than lower part of the water, so a gradient needs to be applied to that calculation. And using that much oil for heating would probably overshoot, from the co2 released.

A democracy doesn't mean that the representatives you elect must always and only follow the will of the constituency: "Your representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgment; and he betrays, instead of serving you, if he sacrifices it to your opinion."

Of course, when it comes to this particular matter of insider trading, it would seem particularly self-serving for Congress to not pass such a law with such popular support. But I want to point out that there is no broad agreement that in a "true democracy", the will of the majority is always reflected in policy.
