I support bicycle lanes, but I believe that riding on the sidewalk is a very dangerous behavior that should be punished handsomely.

It happens in many cities, and those are the ones where bike riders are the most respectful usually.

Ask any deaf/old/parent about how it feels to walk while being overtaken at 25km/h by bike riders with headset on the head and phones in their hands. If you don't care about the weakest on the road, you don't deserve to be protected.
Additionally courts consider the fact that users have little if any say in the terms and thus tend to take the most restrictive but still reasonable view of any uncertainty in the terms.

I think that there's also a lot of psychological/cultural/political issues that work also need to be worked out:

If someone wins the Nobel Prize, do the people who replicated their work also win it? When the history books are written do the replicators get equal billing to the people who made the discovery?

When selecting candidates for prestigious positions, are they really going to consider a replicator equal to an original researcher?
There is a lot of "bullshit work" disguised as busy-ness. But if you take a step back and capture the essence of this author's perspective, it is that they aren't able to regularly get in the "flow state" because their skills are not being utilized enough nor are the challenges hard enough for them to be utilized.

Are we cheering on Facebook? It feels like a situation where all the foul players--the platforms, the government, and the media--are all losing.

The article author tries to say "Individual Canadians who use the platforms to find links to news are losers since news links will be blocked from the platform" but doesn't actually support that with a reason as to why that's a loss. Feels like a win to individual Canadians to me, even if some are upset at their inability to easily and immediately share clickbait and ragebait articles. I think those are the people we're really cheering on.

> Emergency vehicles need a grid of arteries with two lanes in each direction so cars can pull over in normal traffic conditions to let them through.

I've seen emergency vehicles handle two-lane roads (i.e. one lane per direction) well by having drivers in both directions pull over to the edge of their lane and driving in the middle of the road.

An alternative setup that does not require four car lanes is what is in front of my house: A four-lane road where the outer two lanes are for cars and the inner two lanes are for trams only. Emergency vehicles use the tram lanes as required. Makes it much nicer to cross as a pedestrian, too, since you're only crossing single car lanes at a time.

To me the bigger issue in this story is that the cops didn't use any common sense.

I don't live in the US, but from abroad I can tell how messed up the police are over there. The number of stories of brutality, deaths and upright bullying of every day citizens...

It's really messed up, perhaps Americans are desensitised, but I can tell you from the other side of the world - it's nowhere like this in other countries, you guys have a BIG problem with how your cops are selected and trained.

Right, so that’s why I’m not asking them for productivity data. A lot of people just like working from home.

It’s the companies saying that productivity has gone down, so I’m very curious: how do they know? They never seem to say.

Management could say “come RTO because I prefer it that way” in which case asking for productivity data would be silly, but management doesn’t say that because it’d be unconvincing and indicative of vibe-based management.
replication happens over time.
For example, when I did my PhD I wanted to grow TaS2 monolayers on a graphene layer on an Iridium crystal. So I took published growth recipees of related materials, adapted them to our setup and then finetuned the recipee for TaS2. This way I basically "peer replicated" the growth of the original paper. I then took those samples to a measurement device and modified the sample in-situ by evaporating Li atoms on top (which was the actual paper but I needed a sample to modify first). I published the paper with the growth recipee and the modification procedure and other colleagues then took those instructions to grow their own samples for their own studies (I think it was MoS2 on Graphene on Cobalt that they grew).

This way papers are peer replicated in an emerging manner because the knowledge is passed from one group to another and they use parts of that knowledge to then apply it to their own research. You have to see this from a more holistic picture. Individual papers don't mean too much, it's their overlap that generates scientific consesus.

In contrast, requiring some random reviewer to instead replicate my full paper would be an impossible task. He/she would not have the required equipment (because there's only 2 lab setups in the whole world with the necessary equipment), he/she would probably not have the required knowledge (because mine and his research only partially overlap - e.g. we're researching the same materials but I use angle-resolved photoemission experiments and he's doing electronic transport) and he/she would need to spend weeks first adapting the growth recipee to the point where his sample quality is the same as mine.

Social media attracted the news traffic in the beginning.

Google news tried to get to know a visitors interests eagerly.

Facebook wanted to find what you liked and keep you digging into that at the expense of having a broader vision.

Maybe it's a good time for someone to roll out a media news aggregator that also presents it in the context of an interest like the media bias chart.

It is not controversial that dark matter is the orthodoxy and MOND is more on the fringe. That says nothing about how true either is.

Both DM and MOND have problems explaining various data and do well at others. DM in particular seems to require a lot of parameters and tuning to make it work.

I thought all these games were end of nineties, but I didn't check and am not so good at this. Anyways, I never stopped gaming since
Funny, I was looking at the second half of that paragraph so will post it here:

Because the banking system is tightly controlled by the party-state – with state-owned or state-connected enterprises serving as the fiefdoms and cash cows of elite families – the state sector enjoyed privileged access to state bank loans, which were used to fuel an investment spree. The result was rising employment, a temporary and localized economic boom, and a windfall for the elite. But this dynamic also left behind redundant and unprofitable construction projects: empty apartments, underused airports, excessive coal plants and steel mills. That, in turn, resulted in falling profits, slowing growth and worsening indebtedness across the main sectors of the economy.

Which looks eerily similar to the influx of outside capital in cities like mine, which are experiencing unprecedented growth as huge apartment complexes are built for millions of dollars, while the average person can't afford a $500,000 home that was just $150,000 a decade ago. Because access to capital has been ..corrupted? I don't know the right word.

So we have all of these people working as hard as they can to build nonproductive infrastructure. A healthier investment might look like NOT paving farms. Or expanding mass transit. Or funding education. Or stimulating the commercial and industrial sectors. Or doing anything else at all really.

We already went down this road in the 2000s, when the Dot Bomb strategically crashed the economy to give Bush the win in the Bush v. Gore decision, so that attention could be distracted away from sustainability investments like electric cars and solar, towards militarism and a buildout of the housing market which led to the housing bubble popping in 2008. IMHO the US never recovered from that, so now it's all these shell games designed to keep capital out of the hands of everyday working people, who will be left behind as we transition to a rent-based economy of global neofeudalism.

Beneficiaries are not the ones paying in with their time and effort, which creates low morale in the economy and causes the 20% unemployment in youth who have rightfully spotted that the economy is rigged. I think this will become more prevalent as authoritarianism rises and AI eventually takes an oversight role while having no accountability.

BTW this is all fixed through tax policy. We simply tax the wealthy at post-WWII levels until the national debt is paid and workers return to a livable wage as the middle class grows. Note that that's the only thing we haven't tried, which is why no progress is being made.
>The "-ngl 32" means that only 32 out of 35 layers are being run on the GPU, and this results in a huge slow down as the GPU syncs with the CPU, and then computes the last 3 layers on the CPU.

Thanks for the updated run configuration. It was a misunderstanding on our part about what llama.cpp considers “layers”, since layers are traditionally understood as learned parameter decoder layers (as they do in Hugging Face models). And, in this case the llama 7B model has 32 layers.

>On my XTX 7900, I get a 55% speed up on llama.cpp (to 132.61 tok/sec) when running all layers on the GPU, rather than only 32 as in your measurements.

On my 4090 I now get 128 t/s for Q5_1, and 116 t/s for Q6_k. So these are ballpark to mk600's 125 t/s for batch=1. Not surprising that different inference runtimes approach the same speed as they become memory bound for similar model sizes.
> Emergency vehicles need a grid of arteries with two lanes in each direction so cars can pull over in normal traffic conditions to let them through.

As someone to lives in 'downtown' Toronto, where streets are two lanes in each direction, and we have street parking outside of rush hour that takes up one lane, and we have streetcars: emergency vehicles seem to be able to get around just fine.

This is just the begining. Previously, only a handful companies like Google truly knew how to make AI tick with all the data they could gobble up. In the not so distant future, many tech companies will want to build out such capabilities.

I wouldn't be surprised if this "AI clause" is a staple in ToS going forward. Brace for Meta to call it in for Instagram and WhatsApp, if they haven't already (WhatsApp, in particular).
Edsger Dijkstra’s One-Day Workweek
As much as I agree with the sentiment, we have to admit it isn't always practical. There's only one LIGO, LHC or JWST, for example. Similarly, not every lab has the resources or know-how to host multi-TB datasets for the general public to pick through, even if they wanted to. I sure didn't when I was a grad student.

That said, it infuriates me to no end when I read a Phys. Rev. paper that consists of a computational study of a particular physical system, and the only replicability information provided is the governing equation and a vague description of the numerical technique. No discretized example, no algorithm, and sure as hell no code repository. I'm sure other fields have this too. The only motivation I see for this behavior is the desire for a monopoly on the research topic on the part of authors, or embarrassment by poor code quality (real or perceived).
I think OP is putting too much emphasis on brand and reputation. Blizzard had the best of both and they still manage to produce failure after failure (at least as far as critical acclaim goes). BattleBit had none is also a massive success. What makes a game fail or succeed? I don't think anyone knows. But I am fairly sure that whatever AAA mainstream is doing isn't really working. The biggest games are almost all either old franchises that usually have their roots in mods or some kind of simulator that just packages up and polishes something from the real world. So where has the innovation, the joy of video games gone? I think it's being smothered by spreashsheets and processes. If that's true then the solution is quite simple: Let people who actually like games and who can make games, make the games that people want.
> Pikmin 4

As a long-time Pikmin fan it is absolutely wild to me to see Pikmin 4 in a list of AAA games.

There's nothing else like that series in terms of aesthetics, in-game lore or gameplay. It's always been its own singular sub-genre which screams "indy game", and the mediocre sales reflected that. Except that it just happens to also be a first-party Nintendo game that Shigeru Miyamoto is personally invested in.

And now Pikmin 4 suddenly blows everyone's expectations away.

No.. just bad climate science all around.

We broke records everywhere on earth simultaneously? We did nothing to change our measurement strategy or equipment in the past 150 years? What annoys me is everyone finds their favorite justification for austerity and then just runs with it. It's not serious and it's not particularly good science.
Once you authorize any domain that resolves to Cloudflare POP IPs you’re going to end up with gigantic holes that essentially neuter this approach.

It may work in the limited context that is your IoT network but for any corp, user of the web, etc Cloudflare IPs will open almost immediately for all but the most selective (non-CF) DNS records.

Or you don’t allow any CF DNS records or IP ranges and cut yourself off from half the internet.

There is a behavior on some CPUs where "out 0xf0" can leave IGNNE# active, but you can clear it after the "out" by running "fnclex".

Why are there two of them? Either the "out 0xf0" is affected by IGNNE# being active, or maybe the original draft had one "spin, out, fnclex" and that whole block of code was just copy+pasted when they added the second one.
A Canadian citizen buying from a foreign company is not the same as the company conducting business in Canada.

The citizen takes on the responsibility of making sure the legal process of doing business in Canada is upheld. EG, they cannot buy something that is illegal to own in Canada, and the relevant taxes and tariffs must be paid, all of those things.

Should Canada be placing tariffs on Facebook? That would be interesting to see.

>is very much worth worrying about as a direction of travel, but not without context

What's the context where WEI could be seen as a positive?
That may be true for a lot of folks, but that's not the only issue.

From my experience, the biggest issue is that a lot of the appliances and other gadgets we have these days are very complex. You have to be an electrical engineers, software engineer and a mechanical engineer, or a big service company that employs all three, to be able to fix anything.

Additionally it's sometimes really difficult to find service manuals for a lot of these things. If your doodat is flashing error code E-71-X1-C and the user manual you have just says "call for service", what are you going to do about it? You typically need pretty serious google-fu magic to find enough information to start figuring out what's wrong.

When my dryer broke several years ago I think I found the proper service manual for it on a site that looked exactly like a SEO spam site and seriously sketchy. Downloading the PDF I was praying my anti-virus application was up-to-date.
So it's just holding the electric brush at 45 degrees against the gum?
I have always agreed with Vinod Khosla about doctors. Much of what they do today should be replaced by AI.

My own opinion: their arrogance is the most offensive part of the situation. There are plenty of great doctors and surgeons out there, don’t get me wrong. But the majority seem to think they are a superior species.
You are attributing something to malice that can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Few people are out there actively misleading stakeholders about why they're important. If that was the case, businesses would be rushing to fix that problem. What you're seeing is simply overly complex, highly inefficient product delivery pipelines, which have been grandfathered in, and would be too expensive and too risky to fix. So companies continue chugging along as long as the line goes up.
