That’s darkly humorous. That a persons depression is the only thing stopping them from killing themselves. And to get to a better state they have to cross the stage where they are still depressed but have acquired a “can do” attitude.

End of day I think scrambling the brain is almost always the wrong choice. That these things are so heavily prescribed and marketed - what does that say?
If you want to use them, why does it matter if a chip has been replaced? To me, that is what is bizarre. I get the appeal of preserving some. I get the appeal of using some. I don't get the appeal of insisting on purity and retaining only original parts for something you want to actually use, especially when that increasingly means being unable to use these machines because parts are becoming harder to find.

> Replacing original parts with microcontrollers would take away a lot of that pleasure.

Why, when these parts react to the same electrical signals in the same way? In this case it's also not a microcontroller but an FPGA. The contents of the package is different, but the contents of the package also changed during Commodore's own production runs e.g. the change from 6526's to 8521's.
Microsoft and Google are far more flush with cash than Amazon is. Out of the smaller cloud providers, IBM and Oracle wouldn't have needed to buy a CPU company, they'd both been designing top tier CPUs for decades.

Here's an alternative equally simple explanation: ARM doesn't actually have anywhere near the level of advantage in perf/$ that Amazon's pricing would imply. The price differential on AWS isn't coming from any kind of intrinsic advantage, but from Amazon subsidizing their ARM-based compute for strategic reasons.
This company is an anomaly in the capital markets. Investors should do their due diligence or they’ll get taken in by an idiot or charlatan and lose their shirt.

Just look at their financials: $3.7b in the hole and continual losses pulling them ever further into the red. Even operating cashflow is negative. [0]

How is this different to the current process, other than feedback is slower (if forthcoming at all) and less specific?
For this particular example, the tool doesn't seem like it's a big deal. It just analyzes works for data. I'm not sure how this would be any different from a literary critic doing the same thing manually.

In general, though, I think artists would be less hostile to technological innovations if the people imploring them to "figure out how to embrace the technology rather than fear it" weren't actively trying to destroy their livelihoods, almost always without the slightest interest in helping them figure out the new economic situation. The attitude is, "It's the reality now, deal with it," all while enjoying the job security and high salaries of tech jobs. You can see the same attitude displayed when it comes to piracy: "too bad, deal with it, I have a good job, I don't care if you don't anymore."

This stuff would be received far better by the creative community if AI companies were to say, establish an artist sponsorship program, push for UBI, or otherwise show that they care even a tiny bit about the people they're making redundant.
WeWork Raises Doubt About Its Survival

If you want to work for them, reach out to them. Maybe they need more people like us still :)
Why do you feel that the Google vs Authors Guild ruling cited in the article isn’t relevant?
That's a 2 year old github bug being fixed, not the actual usage people obtain in the wild.

Here's [1] a commercial ESP32 board that draws 1.5uA, and, as others point out, comes with vastly more hardware at a lower cost [2] than the EFM32 arm core you listed.

[2] $1.10 for ESP32-C3 on digikey, vs $1.34 for EFM32PG22C200F64IM32-CR. The ESP-32 is better for pretty much every spec possible.
This reminds me of this quote from Jill Tarter of SETI:

“Might it be the discovery of a distant civilization and our common cosmic origins that finally drives home the message of the bond among all humans? Whether we’re born in San Francisco or Sudan or close to the heart of the Milky Way Galaxy, we are the products of a billion-year lineage of wandering stardust. We, all of us, are what happens when a primordial mixture of hydrogen and helium evolves for so long that it begins to ask where it came from.”

You are exactly modeling the chauvinistic Silicon Valley attitude that is causing the outrage in the general population to begin with.

“Our algorithms are pretty much the same as human art criticism, so put down the pitchforks you unenlightened scum” is up there with telling them to eat (a Stable Diffusion generated picture of) cake.
There is a pretty heavy bias against proton anything here, imo. They are seen as a marketing company is my interpretation of the sentiment.
Your project management skills translate well across industries. If your desire is to get into software PM because there is more money there then start applying for those roles, expand your network to people that work at companies that have those roles and maybe take people out for coffee to see if/where you may have gaps to close before they would hire you.

Another angle might be to look into software companies in the EV sector, ones that build apps based on the charging infrastructure. Pivoting into running projects for them would probably be the most straight forward path to doing PM work on software and not physical install of hardware.
These are good, but to really bring them to life I recommend Christopher Logue, whose version doesn't even pretend to be a translation. There are some nice excerpts in his obituary in The Economist https://archive.ph/eaCKf

But in the worst case, initializing one package causes the count in each of the remaining packages to update. Maybe they have a clever way of doing that. Or maybe this is very unlikely to happen in practice.
Self-hosting also makes you vulnerable to the network hosting you (not only the hosting server itself, but also the internet transit provider) and of course the website you are visiting, as you are the only user from that source IP (rendering a VPN practically useless).
I surely wouldn't call Intel a "GPU driver company" (like how I'd call American Megatrends a BIOS/Firmware company), but rather a Processor company that is also making drivers (but that is neither here nor there).

This is still so weird of them (not weird in the sense I wouldn't put it past them, but weird in a sense that someone even had the idea), even if they make it optional. Like, I don't care if you want to use that information to try to make better drivers by knowing which sites break the GPU, I will report that to you if I feel so inclined to it.

I'd understand if it were "We wanna know what programs are using hardware acceleration", but it's not limited to that...
They… quantify the number of adverbs and voices? I'm sorry, but have you ever read either a book or a review of one?
Software people are intensely susceptible to the McNamara Fallacy:

“But when the McNamara discipline is applied too literally, the first step is to measure whatever can be easily measured. The second step is to disregard that which can't easily be measured or given a quantitative value. The third step is to presume that what can't be measured easily really isn't important. The fourth step is to say that what can't be easily measured really doesn't exist. This is suicide.”

— Daniel Yankelovich, "Interpreting the New Life Styles", Sales Management (1971)

This is often justified as an attempt to be objective, but I think the actual reason is that it’s hard to deal with unquantifiable properties.
"majority" and "clings on" seem entirely arbitrary and perjorative. Why not make your actual point instead of just beating up a straw man?
Good point - goes to show it’s always easier to criticise behemoths like this from the outside.

However, I wager that they have had long enough to plan around this one - _surely_ there are a non-negligible amount of leases they can trade or sell on / do something with as most WeWork locations are in highly desirable spots.
You say that. And your I read your original post again, to be sure.

There have been significant windfall taxes before and (in my country (UK), at least) I can't recall any disastrous long term indirect effects.
As far as AMD drivers are concerned, you can at least reflash some cards. Nvidia cards... well I've only seen videos where people say they have a given driver so there might be underhanded means involved.
You know not everyone here is an engineer, right? Many marketers, designers, product people, and even engineers who do all of these things well.
If I read the book, take notes about the number of times $x happened and later post them to my website, are you fine with that?

if I automate that process with a script that uses regular expressions, are you fine with that?

if I add a neural network to my script and it spits out the same numbers, are you still fine with that?

hopefully you see the madness in your argument.
it does not. there is absolutely no basis for "islam forbits interest".

the way "islamic banking" was envisioned, they created a problem then suggested an alternative which is the same thing, just with arabic names.

there is something called "shariah compliant banking" but "islamic banking" on its own is a misnomer and doesn't exist.

don't believe me, here is a video of Dr. Mohammad Shahrour on the subject.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEk_8-jaSUs

its really short but brings home the idea.

your next question might be "so...whats islamic banking then". the answer is simple. when you can't fight in a free market so what you do is change the market so that customers automatically opt for your "superior" product as opposed to the competition.

You can read up on this by finding "why need for islamic banking" arose. the problem didn't exist till then so someone just literally invented it and then sold a solution
So many of my favourite games of the era, all made by a handful of people on a platform with less compute power than my keyboard or mouse.[1]

Incredible.

I still sometimes dream of Alien:8, desolate metal rooms with incomprehensible objects stacked or moving in dangerous ways.

Atic Atac and Sabre Wulf are cemented in my head as amazing, frantic, smooth as butter adventures.

Jetpac was smooth too, it never felt laggy or stuttering. And building that rocket was a major excitement for the 10 year old that I was.

Several years ago while hustling as a single founder, I hoped to get a desk in a private office (anything but open-space), so I would have a place to come to to focus on work, socialize and feel at work.. So I went to see what WeWork have to offer.
There I saw a nice floor with nice looking private offices, finally taken to what they thought might be relevant for me, they showed me a tiny space where half a diner table is hung on the wall and over a diner sofa with the second wall behind the sofa, (now-days these types of rooms are used for private 1 on 1 meetings and zoom calls..) for the price of what I would pay a private office of say 2/3 people (pre-WeWork shared office spaces).
Just the audacity of the person showing me this for this price struck me how greedy and disconnected WeWork are, got me so insulted I would never check them out again.
This is what you get when you get an MBA type business management constantly looking for ways to up the contract prices like its a B2B SaaS business (not that I'm saying this makes more sense there..)
> Neumann and the other VCs already exit scammed out of it with their millions and additionally dumped on retail

Given the outright fraud prevalent in today’s tech landscape, it’s difficult to call WeWork a scam. Stupid, yes. But fraud; for that we lack evidence.
I think the site had a better claim by far than AI training does.
Or Beijing, since they apparently have fully replicated it.

I don't know why so many institutions and scientists are so quick to call it nothing. It feels like hubris to me, the scientists in Korea spent many years on it, if it were so easy to dismiss I don't think that would have continued their research... right?
>I've personally grown into dealing with toxic people by not engaging in their games

Isn't that particular professional environment (e.g. company) their game field?

If so, why expect to ever manage to go pass them without playing their game?

Go somewhere else and leave them playing.
Governments ordering farmers to stop farming, in the name of "climate impact mitigation," is also going to negatively impact food supply. Let's be honest here.
Hrm. It seems like the authors are caught up in things like "vividness" score and the "sentiment analysis" of the text; I guess because it's loosely related to AI?

But it seems like a bulk of the stats collected are things that I would find really useful. I've probably asked myself, "how many words are in this book" on 10+ separate occasions, both as a reader and as a writer.

It also seems like there were also counts of things like adjectives, verbs, adverbs, passive verbs, etc -- stats that I might want to know about a novel.

The bulk of the service seems rather "boring" and non-AI. Unfortunate that the whole thing was taken down because of a few features. Hopefully it'll come back.
that will be a lot of furniture
> how greedy and disconnected WeWork are…what you get when you get an MBA type business management constantly

Apparently not greedy nor MBA enough!
I always hear cost of benefits in TC, especially in union negotiation. It’s important because that’s the cost to the employer.

If I’m negotiating a union contract for the union I want to know how much I’m asking and what it costs.

As an employee, I also compare total compensation packages across offers. I once had multiple offers where one was $20k higher in pay, but the insurance was way worse (cost of $3k/year vs $18k) and the leave was way worse.

So it’s a good idea to compare total pay package, not just the gross take home.
Your tag line is sleep better tonight. So I can’t sleep. I go thru the hoops. Then you want to charge me, for something that may not work?

I would prefer give me something of value - one tip to try tonight. If it works, I’ll be back tomorrow with my credit card.
Another typical example is charging internal applications for IDPs, guess what, people are just gonna use LDAP/AD directly, at a not-so-small detriment to application and user security.

These are things where cost center accounting just plainly hurts the company. (There are many cases where it works well and aligns incentives).
A replacement, yes. But is it open hardware? It doesn't seem to be the case.

This is unlike the recently released VIC-II Kawari[0]. That one is OSH proper.

Well, considering that science is wrong far more often than it’s right (and done poorly), blindly appealing to it as sole arbiter and authority is maybe a bit hubristic?

Also - you can acquire postpartum depression while pregnant. You can get pregnant soon after having a baby. But hey, science.
Isn’t this a microcosm of the broader story with commercial real estate? Values are down massively. Trying to break the lease is like realizing those losses for WeWork.
It's always worth noting that JSON compresses the hell out of repetitive key names, just as it did for the even more repetitive XML. It's nicer to have a bit packing format that means you get even better space usage, and you skip a compression step, but it works for a huge number of cases.
> I don’t think a simple “actually, no” is a useful counter argument to his point, especially when he used multiple examples and you just shook your head.

I shook my head because they were similar and equally bad.

> That’s not at all his specific argument about self-driving cars (there were entire sections about the decision making issues he saw), but is the crux of his argument about AI as a whole.

I was talking about the crux of his argument, which starts by saying that we won't get self-driving cars because <start of bad arguments>.

> And there’s a whole article discussing some of those, if you read the parts in the middle. I don’t think the dude’s necessarily right, but I’m also pretty sure you missed a lot of the text in an apparent race to summarily dismiss it.

In my complete reading, the article was geared towards discussing the impossibilities (rather than possibilities) from the POV of someone who hasn't taken any time to understand the cutting edge of research that he is critiquing. That was, in fact, my original point - critique is great, but don't mask personal intuition (potentially uneducated) as science.
> I’m with the artists on this one. Our obsession with converting everything into input for an algorithm that spits out an ill-defined number (what the hell is “vividness”?) needs to stop.

Anyone who is with the artists should pass a law. Moral outrage is not law.

Actually, nonsense interview is another red flag to watch out for when applying a job.

Some companies uses long and pointless interviews to discover and collect legally sound reasons to reject candidates without revealing the true reason of rejections (could be based on race, gender, age, disability, religion etc).

But, you probably don't want to work for a bad company anyway, so I guess just be happy for the fact that now you don't have to.

In science they call this trap P-hacking. Even data "scientists" know to be wary of overfitting. We're really good at finding patterns, but few of them actually mean anything.
I have PIA paid until December but I'm getting so many captchas with them that I've been seriously considering paying for Mullvad, too. Glad to see people are still happy with them so I can go ahead.
One bit of sand?
Relying on Authors Guild, Inc. v. Google, Inc in order determine fair use for AI models, there are a few key aspects to consider. The outcome should not supersede, supplant or become a replacement for the original works, nor should they sell portions of them. It should also preferable enhance the sale of the original work to the benefit of the copyright holder.

In this specific case regarding prosecraft, all those criteria might be fulfilled, and it might be so that under those specific conditions the use of any copyrighted work for the creation of AI models is fair (or at least under US law).

We need to be more detailed about this as it highlights a demographics problem underlying it....

1. Free Money was the tail end of boomers investments pools
2. There will be a 12-year gap until the next investments pools increase from the new
workers entering the working market.
3. Next investments pool increase from the new worker cohorts group will
be smaller than the boomers.

All this indicates that the strategy of throw money at getting monopoly of
market is sun setting and VCs will now have to have the slow growth strategy
in their toolbox.

That also means potential founders now need to have that in their toolbox, things to look for:

1. Founders getting creative and partnering up with older experienced
people in the domain they are creating their product in.

> they have had long enough to plan around this one

WeWork’s core model has always been borrowing long and lending short; they are inherently vulnerable to a sharp spike down in commercial rents.

Apart from financially hedging that, or penning fancy outs when they signed their leases, it’s tough to see how even prescience a few years ago could have saved them. And that’s amidst Silicon Valley’s attitude in 2021-22 that the Fed couldn’t—not wouldn’t, couldn’t—raise rates or else America would go bankrupt or some nonsense.

Devices like this are basically TOTP reified. I mean, they aren't literally the TOTP protocol the technology is different, but it's a secret value (baked into the device) which is combined with a clock and a decent hash to produce predictable values over time. A kilt is a skirt, my sister isn't wearing a kilt but if you haven't seen any other skirts then "It's basically a kilt" is a pretty fair description.

RSA is embarrassing because they kept the fucking secret values. As a result it was strictly worse than just getting whatever cheap knock off you can purchase. I believe their rationale was if they keep these values when a customer inevitably goes "Oh, oops, we lost the values" instead of "Too bad, now you own useless bricks, buy more" you can "Help" them by providing the secret values again. But that ought to be the very stupidest idea from a security company if only there weren't so many other embarrassing stories.

In 2011 they suffered "an extremely sophisticated cyber attack" aka basic phishing, and bad guys are assumed to have stolen the complete database. So, that's not great.
