Yes, it would continue POSIX. But POSIX is about a small part of a linux distribution.
There was LSB that was more extended, a bit. Then there was the file system standard,
and perhaps others that I don't know about. But a standard covering what one should expect
from a modern 'base system', in full detail, updated every 10 or 5 years, does not exist. There is a de facto `standard', RHEL, but it is by fiat. A proper standard requires a documentation (the `standard') that defines what is essential to be found, _and_ an implementation--or, ideally, more than one, _and_ a means to check that a given implementation matches that documentation.

If you have that documentation, it works both in space (alternative implementations) and time. In the future, you can be sure that a new implementation, perhaps of a future version of the standard, is still exactly compatible with the previous version.

This has been done for languages (C, Ada, Lisp, Fortran etc), libraries and kernels (that is POSIX), processor ISAs, but not for linux distributions AFAIK.

Colon is allowed in the filesystem; it's displayed as a forward slash in the UI.

Thanks Bram.

I've been using Vim (and sometimes more recently Neovim) for over 30 years (nearly every work day of my entire career), having used `vi` on various BSD systems in school. In all that time, I've never been on the mailing list for Vim, asked a question or submitted a bug report. I've never needed to do so. Because I've never run into a bug or had a question that couldn't be answered by the built in documentation.

A quality software project, lead by a quality man. You've been an inspiration.
Another tangent to the overall topic: There's a game called Tetris Effect that renders the 2D playing field in 3D with subtle 3D effects to have fun with the immersion of it and intentionally trying to build the Tetris effect in the player even while you play. It was originally designed for VR immersion though you can play it on a regular screen. It's from Enhance the studio that inherited the designers from Rez, Lumines, Child of Eden (the weird, under-rated Kinect game), and more where highly immersive (music/rumble/design details focused towards synesthesia) games are their passion. If you've ever played Lumines and wondered what that team would do with Tetris itself, Tetris Effect is a must play.

Exactly! If you rise up enough, it becomes possible to have green zones around these big buildings and make living actually enjoyable.

That is an incorrect understanding, even according to the article you linked.

It was struck down because not because the circumstances (emergency) was not met, but rather because the action itself was not allowed.

One thing I'm really struggling with for all these kind of issues is do we really want to create another legal system? That's basically what every organization is being pushed into at this rate.

From Universities to chess Leagues they are assembling what amounts to their own judges, juries, and prosecutors.

If someone is committing sexual assault why does their seem to be this avoidance of the existing legal system and a push into these opaque and what amounts to amateur alternative legal systems?

Exactly, I had to go to a junior college and transfer later on due to funds. Plus driving to and from out of state is expensive so I was stuck being a commuter at local institutions. Not to mention some kids that are good at sports can’t afford to play either and possibly get a scholarship.

Yes, that is confusing as the intro in the README says "SynJax is a neural network library for JAX structured probability distributions".

However, contrary to my expectations after reading that, they do not have lots primitives to mix neural and probabilistic models.

They seem to be heading in that direction, with e.g. connectionist temporal classification (CTC).

Still very interesting library, seems to provide massive efficiency gains for difficult generative models such as PCFGs.

I want to address this more generally. I'm not taking issue with any of the claims, I don't know what is true or isn't.

The thing I wonder after reading this is how many organizations struggle to deal with these types of situations. Employers, schools, universities, clubs all seem to now have to have a process to address these things. And yet they seem to fumble it regularly, in every direction. The results are all over the map, ignore the issue, too strict, knee jerk in about every way, sometimes every way...

It occurs to me that none of these organization naturally have a good mechanism for dealing with these things, nor do they necessarily have people qualified to do so (even Big US Universities for all their resources have demonstrated their own ability to do poorly in every way).

We all have ideas about how we think these groups should act after the fact, but how do you really get it right?

How does any organization decide "We're going to address these kinds of claims, investigate, and act appropriately?" Where do they even start?
Yeah I forgot to clear this, thanks!
Honestly, that's part of why I took the pay cut.

I only applied to jobs that were remote, because I love the lifestyle. The job I wound up with wanted me hybrid, but I negotiated for remote. I've got a young kid, and that time I'd have been commuting is time I get to spend with her.

But if I'd been open to hybrid jobs, I'd likely have had more opportunities, and more money offered.

If the product you're building is just a prompt that needs to be executed langchain is not for you.

IIRC there are provisions in the NLRA that address situations like this. If Amazon primarily directs the activities of the workers, not the contractor company, if Amazon can dismiss individual employees then they're consider a kind of joint employer and can still be unionized against.

Like all the other agenty stuff I've seen it's not clear what the fluff adds over just prompting the base model.
The interesting part is the sudden generalization.

Simple models predicting simple things will generally slowly overfit, and regularization keeps that overfitting in check.

This "grokking" phenomenon is when a model first starts by aggressively overfitting, then gradually prunes unnecessary weights until it suddenly converges on the one generalizable combination of weights (as it's the only one that both solves the training data and minimizes weights).

Why is this interesting? Because you could argue that this justifies using overparametrized models with high levels of regularization; e.g. models that will tend to aggressively overfit, but over time might converge to a better solution by gradual pruning of weights. The traditional approach is not to do this, but rather to use a simpler model (which would initially generalize better, but due to its simplicity might not be able to learn the underlying mechanism and reach higher accuracy).
The important question is, when is Google going to kill this functionality? DocuSign only has to hold out until then.

I'm confused what Lichess wanted here.

One woman complained. USCF assigned her an escort. More women complained. USCF banned the guy.

This sounds completely reasonable, unless the first woman provided proof, you can't just ban someone because of an allegation. But they took steps to ensure her safety at future events.

What does Lichess want here? They say it's insufficient, but they never really say what should have been done.

Edit: to clarify, I'm talking about the incident with Timur
fair point, but this is why you need multiple parse steps. first parse you get the overall structure and note where forward references are made to things that are not known yet. in the second step you fill in those references as found.

it becomes problematic if a function definition is conditional. i suppose then that the compilation should fail because i guess conditional definitions would not be covered.
Is it just me or should it be "Meta Programming for a Collaborative Multi-Agent Framework".

I would be curious if this word order sounds better when translated into Mandarin word by word.
Generally the existing legal system is a very difficult path.

Having said that I do agree with you (and thus my other comment) that these informal efforts by people who understandably are not qualified to deal with these things, are a mess too, and I'm not at all sure how they could possibly get it right often enough.

US Universities in their effort to make the path less difficult have demonstrated that just pressing your foot down on the balance of justice is not justice.

“No” certainly isn’t a viable answer, as it resulted in the evidence of inaction and blame-shifting presented by Lichess. However, your opinion as indicates hostility to “Yes”. In light of that contradiction, what action do you recommend organizations take other than refusing to govern their members with regards to sexual assault?

Part of the justification at the time for getting rid of CentOS proper in favor of CentOS "Stream" was that poor Red Hat was doing all the work and spending all the cash in support of CentOS. Red Hat even went as far to say that the CentOS leadership (board?) was in full support.

Red Hat never allowed CentOS to have any kind of election. It was never a community driven project after Red Hat bought it.

So, very interesting to see these companies banding together to give us back CentOS by another name. It will be interesting to see what Rocky and Alma do.
I think the people that told me that aren't good enough are the admissions committees of the 2 elite schools I applied to that rejected me (I only applied to 4 schools in total). They've already decided that I have no "merit".
You can input any cost BEFORE tax and it will tell you what price to sell for on ebay or amazon to make a variable profit, which you also input. You can change buy tax and sales tax and includes latest amazon and ebay algorithms on fees and fees on taxes (ebay takes your fees out of the sales tax which is variable, but amazon reports it does not).

Not much of a concession to regulators. They could just expand the breadth of offerings from their remaining brands if they wanted to, until they were selling the exact same products.

I am not an FTC regulator, but to me it seems like the shadiest thing Amazon does with its brands is to give them increased prominence in search results. They cannot tell me they don't juice the results to bubble their brands up to the top.

I don't see any evidence of Lichess being "pushed into" this. It's owned entirely by a single person. I don't recall any PR campaign to pressure Lichess into doing this.

This feels much more like one person making a decision about who he would and would not associate with.

I don't disagree that moral panics and mass hysteria are real but this does not seem to be a case of that.
It’s already a reality, I was doing it about ten years ago.

require.js was a big piece of the puzzle, allowing the use of modules in browser without a build step.

The only time a “build” happened was to concat/minify scripts for production release, but even this wasn’t strictly necessary.

There were other pieces involved, but we had a powerful stack (aforementioned modules, css preprocessing, reactive templating) that had a faster and easier workflow than anything happening today.
> Now everyone can make great sounding music and distribute it globally for free. The result is a gazillion genre musicians.

Entirely agreed, and a point I often find myself making in conversations about this stuff.

However:

> I used to play in genre bands 20 years ago. No one made a living doing it. There are a lot of rose colored glasses being worn here.

I've never been a fan of spectacularly popular music. I used to have a collection of about 3000 vinyl albums, and of that, about 2/3 were by musicians I would characterize as "genre". Of that, I would guesstimate at least half of them used to make some sort of living from their recorded music (based on a quick mental survey of the musicians and what I knew/know about their lives).

This is (was) particularly true of jazz, improvised music, electronic music.

> The current situation is much, much better: everyone has the opportunity to make music, and listeners have more music available than they could have ever imagined, and it's all essentially free.

I mostly agree with this, with the proviso that I'm not sure we really understand what the long term impact will be of "even less people than before can making a living from selling recordings of their music".
I don't believe anyone wants to create a new legal system, but the reality is the vast majority of sexual assault cases aren't resolved in court due to existing social issues. These "judges, jurries and prosecutors" are just people who don't want to associate with potentially dangerous people regardless of the legal outcome. Beyond legal consequences to crime there have always been social consequences too - I think the major difference compared to the past is that these companies put out press releases instead of just blacklisting someone and moving on.
There is another thread on HN about vim development going forward, posted on the Google Group for vim development. Christian Brabandt mentions several issues that will need to be resolved, e.g. the hosting situation for the site.

I feel that this would be an ideal thing for one of the various open source foundations to address. I.e., provide a single-source hosting environment for open source projects without needing to lean on for-profit corporations, which would include some form of hit-by-a-bus solution for those projects that lose a core (or sole) developer.

Trying to piece this stuff together after the fact is always a chore. And no amount of "well, they should have a plan in place" will help. People don't think they're going to die tomorrow, so there's always a reason to put it off for later, so they do.

I don't think anybody's worried about Linux going poof if Linus unexpectantly returns to his home planet, but there are plenty of projects that might have some issues. Having all of the domains, DNS, hosting, etc. somewhere with a real employee that can be contacted to move control to new people if required is a good thing.
