>Whether these tests, verbatim produce the same response on any given version isn't the point.

The paper make a nonsensical claim but fails to back it with results. If anyone isn't doing any thinking here, it's you. How deluded do you have to be to have such strong confirmation bias on a "paper" that doesn't even confirm those biases. Chucking up the simple fact that the model is indeed getting right all the problems that were supposed to indicate a lack of reasoning as "not producing the same response verbatim" is ridiculous. Did you even stop to think about what you just wrote ?

If you're so sure of GPT-4 failing a permutation of these results then by all means demonstrate that.

It seems like a lot of people are pretending that because there's a contractual relationship between Cloudflare and many websites, that Cloudflare can't cause outsized harms to other parties.

It really sucks for a third party to claim you're a bot and as a result you lose access to resources. And the potential for harm is only increasing.

Worse still, the false positive rate appears unacceptably high (look at all the people here with substantial issues) and there's no recourse unless you get a highly voted thread on hacker news.
Best of luck to them, they're gonna need it.
The website is fine, it is your use of it that is wrong. From where I stand, those errors have been well-documented by other commenters, so I don't know that further writing on the subject is necessary. Or perhaps you have a more thorough rebuttal to what was a reasonable comment.
I question the population focus and it's applicability to Western, specifically American, diets. The study focused on 310 diabetic patients in Saudi Arabia. I don't think it is going out on a limb to say that there are dietary differences between the typical Saudi Arabian diet and the typical American diet, especially in the overwhelming reliance on ultra-processed, pre-packaged foods in the U.S.

Perhaps this might have more applicability to diabetic patients in Europe, specifically those who follow the Mediterranean diet due to socio-geographic reasons.
T-Mobile uses NAT64. 6to4 is a (mostly deprecated) protocol for tunneling IPv6 over IPv4.

> dont try victim blaming in a case of car plowing thru pedestrian without even trying to use brakes

But also don't make martyrs out of victims. If I were to get drunk/drugged, and decided to walk into a dangerous neighborhood, at night, and someone stabs me, I am the victim, I am in the right, and I am also an idiot for deliberately putting myself in a very dangerous situation.

We should support victims, but we shouldn't normalize or overlook self-destructive behaviors. Both driver and victim were wrong, and fortunately the driver pleaded guilty, because he was much more in the wrong.
This is one of many similar previous attacks, and more of these attacks will continue to come out and be increasingly weaponized. From now on the assumption must be that same-core computing is not secure.
Insanely enough, Cloudflare sometimes puts these pages in front of API endpoints, as if that JSON were for human eyes only.

Indeed, this is awesome work.
Do you count the influx of homeless as residents? These people absolutely need healthcare, but they are a resource drain that can move in suddenly, unpredictably, and overwhelm a local solution with static resources.

Then you get a situation where the wealthy, even (and sometimes especially) the diehard leftists who voted for the situation, turn up their nose at what’s shown up in their backyard, and fuck off from California to Colorado or Texas. This reduces the tax resource pool, stressing the residents and businesses that can’t afford to leave further. This creates resentment.

Coupled with the overly dramatic and personal shitshow that is local politics, frankly I see local initiatives as a fantastic way to fail tens of thousands of times.

Fixes have to take place at least at the state level, and even that is less than ideal, because expenses have to be spread out (especially in regards to the wealthiest 1% that pay a huge chunk of income tax, and are not equally distributed across local towns) without creating an attractive hotspots for tax resource competition.

Yes, the model is available. However, it just released so no one has wrapped it in a plugin yet. I would expect that within the month there will be a nicely runnable local version, similar to llama2's wrappers.

Have these people heard of the iPhone? It came out in 2007. That's 16 years ago. It was never controlled by its users, and that enabled many apps and features, like disappearing messages, that are impossible on devices that are controlled by their users.

I think after 16 years it's time to admit that this model is here to stay, and the only question is whether the web supports it, or whether there will be certain apps and features that will never be available on the web.
I’m no lawyer but my guess is that the bar is so low for what’s actually legal- and no one generally reads these EULA’s- that it’s easier just to have it in there.
Ahistoric nonsense. Its just that south-Korea is at a empire gradient. One empire borders another empire. Which either means you gets you eternal proxy wars - or you get propped up, by the competition of the empires and can milk that sweet soft-power gradient for benefits. You get preferable trade-agreements, even if you use protectionism. You get other sweet deals. Look at all the countries who made it, dwelling along the fault lines of the past and the present. Germany. Turkey. Austria. Italy.Hungary. Greece. Japan. China. South-Korea. Soon Ukraine. The list goes on and the reason has little todo with strategy. You cant plan for location.

Neil Postman articulates this point in Amusing Ourselves to Death, and cites Marshal McLuhan’s adage, “the medium is the message”: TV is entertaining and context-free. News over TV will adopt the shape of the medium.

I did a little write-up after reading AOtD for a TL;DR of the book: https://lambdaland.org/posts/personal/2020-06-07-amusing-our...

(Though you really should read the book and not my dumb little write-up.)
They wouldn't because you literally changed nothing. The USD is on a failed gold standard. We are still living the aftermath of a failed gold standard. Also, in theory a gold standard does absolutely nothing. All the theoretical benefits you think that come from a gold standard can be implemented today. The only difference is that a gold standard collapses when you go out of its modus operandi.

The obvious problem is the concept that money from this period should be valid in any future period with no decay or costs associated with holding the money. This leads to a compression of the economy along the time dimension. It manipulates time preferences because money can be transported into the future at no cost which artificially subsidises low time preferences. The market no longer properly integrates the time preferences of all participants and this then leads to people who met their needs to assert their low time preference over people with unmet needs who by mere necessity, and not because of psychological or personal failure as many claim, have a higher time preference. A recession can be viewed as shifting production into the future even as people have unmet needs in the present.

The only known solution is to get rid of cash or to introduce some sort of time bound money like demurrage currencies. A demurrage currency cannot be carried into the future at no cost. This binds the currency to a specific time period which in turn means that people with excess money can no longer impose their patience onto people who are impatient by circumstance.
I think we need to put this argument in terms of consent and actual harms caused. Human artists are generally down for other human artists to learn from their art and use their stuff as a reference for the purpose of learning, because the next artist generally will have their own style from their own quirks in muscle memory, skill, experience, etc. That contributes meaningfully to Art and keeps the field alive by allowing new artists to enter the field.

AI training is basically only extractive and has the potential to severely disrupt the actual field that made the AI systems possible at all. It's a much more mechanical process that the human interaction of studying a master. It doesn't develop any human skills.

Even if the processes were the same (and I don't think they are, as someone who has actually done computational psychology research), I would still think the AI companies are doing something they know is harmful to actual creative people that generate real value.
Yeah, and there is no (easy) way to extract the root cert from your own real TPM either.
thanks for remembering me, and no i didnt attack your education level, i was just very tired of people having lazy superficial reactions to version changes and making up a non-story. i shouldve also pointed out that the active version of React went from React 16->17->18 in the span of 2 years without people raising this kind of comment so its basically a double standard. anyway i see where you're coming from so I apologize.
Another thinly veiled AI product. Yawn.
Or if the browser companies themselves were owned by large corporate behemoths!

Wait…
Note that there are two separate components to the issue:

1. the interaction between mutable locations and closures

In most languages with mutable bindings, if you close over a variable you're closing over a "cell" and will see future modifications to it. This is the case in Go, Python, Ruby, Javascript, C#, ...

A few languages avoid it e.g.

- Java, not because it "captures values" but because it only allows capturing "final" variables so you can't update the bindings (you can still mutate in place when capturing reference types)

- C++, because you have to specify the capture mode and it'll only be affected if you capture by reference (which you wouldn't do for a loop variable), so the likelihood of hitting this issue is pretty low

- Rust, because even if you capture by reference you can't modify a binding with an outstanding reference

2. the scoping of loop variables, if you're capturing the loop variable but each iteration has a different version of the loop variable then you don't really mind too much, because each closure will capture its own loop variable, this doesn't fix the above issue but it does fix the most common occurrence of it

That's what Go is doing, other languages which have done that are C# (when using a `foreach` loop), Javascript (when using `let` or `const` for the loop variable), ...

Also Ruby, kind-of: using the `each` method for iteration is very common, and since then the loop variable is a parameter to the block it's basically a per-iteration local, "for...in" still has the issue. I guess C# also has that when using the linq ForEach method but I don't know how common that is.

And this is the risk that operating system developers run when you take away features or you don't develop features that your userbase wants.

Look at the amount of Start Menu modifiers there are out there for Windows. All because Microsoft keeps on changing the start menu. Why? I don't know. I just want to get rid of the Recommended section, but I'm not allowed to.
Right now, many banks require a mobile app, which can only be installed from an app store, which is only available on devices that you don't control. Even if they have a web interface, you need the mobile app to login.
Yep. For a decent chunk of my early adulthood, barring really major events, my news consumption was ABC World News Tonight and maybe This Week with David Brinkley on Sunday if I was around--and Time Magazine delivered weekly to my mailbox.

And that was pretty much it.
Lawmakers don't even read the bills the vote on, they have legal experts explain the implications to them. Would you have a better understanding of a system if you skimmed the source code or if you watched a presentation from the author?

237 pages of legalese is way beyond what most people can handle, this is why lawyers exist. If you're saying people shouldn't have an opinion unless they read complex legal documents you're just saying you don't think people should have opinions.
I'm not a lawyer, but the terms of service are an agreement with the user, so yes. They're not hiding anything because then they'd get sued.

If they didn't disclose "this shady stuff" then the user can try to resolve their dispute via remedies stipulated elsewhere.

Really there are several ways they could have gone about writing this agreement. This is probably the simplest for everyone. This is also how the bigger orgs write their agreements. They state their intent and you have to agree or fuck off.

The badly written agreements (what you were expecting) are less honest and try to explicitly have the user waive some rights entirely including any remedies in or out of court, but those can usually be deemed unenforceable because they violate established rights and precedent rulings.
This comes handy because most organizations have no idea if their data has quality or not...

[EDIT] If anyone is wondering why it is rendering poorly in Firefox with Resist Fingerprinting enabled, that's because this page seems to serve the game from a random CDN on a different host.
https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/8469963/index.html in my case.

Because the canvas is attempting to read pixels, which can be used for fingerprinting, Firefox is blocking this. But because it is being done in an iframe, there is no prompt until you open the iframe in a new tab at which point you can whitelist it, and it will work ok in the original iframe too. Unfortunately reloading it in the original may give you a totally different host to whitelist, repeating the problem. So, probably best to just play outside the iframe.

In order to do that I had to inspect the page and copy the url since I can't right click on the game iframe to choose open in new tab, probably because it is capturing that.

Oh, you can also allow canvas fingerprinting, but that seems like a bad idea - maybe in a separate firefox profile just for sites like this one..

> Resolving rebase conflicts is technically and conceptually much more difficult than resolving merge conflicts

The opposite is true: resolving a conflict during a rebase is much easier, as you get to resolve the conflict in the context of a single commit and its parent. In some cases it may end up being more work than resolving a whole merge, but it's much easier to reason about.
Is that true? The DOM is represented somewhere too, probably in the same heap. I'd bet it works on static sites.
And (a lot of) Git was implemented with Bash scripts.

"Red Hat’s internal performance testing of a worst-case microbenchmark showed a significant slowdown. However, more realistic applications that utilize vector gathering showed only low single-digit percentage slowdowns."

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/7027704

Performance Impact

The performance impact of the microcode mitigation is limited to applications that use the gather instructions provided by Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX2 and AVX-512) and the CLWB instruction. Actual performance impact will depend on how heavily an application uses those instructions. Red Hat’s internal performance testing of a worst-case microbenchmark showed a significant slowdown. However, more realistic applications that utilize vector gathering showed only low single-digit percentage slowdowns.

If the user decides to disable the mitigation after doing a thorough risk analysis (for example the system isn’t multi-tenant and doesn’t execute untrusted code), the user can disable the mitigation. After applying the microcode and kernel updates, the user can disable the mitigation by adding gather_data_samping=off to the kernel command line.Alternatively, to disable all CPU speculative execution mitigations, including GDS, use mitigations=off.
Social media and its manipulation have amplified the problem vastly, and what makes it even worse is the consolidation of ownership. Nothing like turning on an ABC (owned by Disney) news program and getting ten minutes of self-referential Disney news.
SmartPoi, the Android WiFi controlled Persistence-Of-Vision LED equipment I use in my flashy light juggling shows every week.

When I bought my remote controlled juggling equipment I thought I had everything, then I found out about Pixel Poi(TM) - which at the time were unobtainable for the kind of budget I was on. I actaully cried. For real.

Video that made me cry -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWeUQowxVlM - the good stuff starts about halfway.

I knew I had to have them, so this set me on a 10 year journey over 5 prototypes (including an early one on stripboard with 120 hand soldered LED's!) where I taught myself to program, 3d CAD, design circuit boards - even did a full Stanford U course on networking. It gave me the skills to survive the pandemic financially by making a living doing remote coding jobs (I'm a professional juggler and magician).

The project lives on today in my show and in the future at http://magicpoi.circusscientist.com - where I am bulding it out to be a full platform for IOT flashy light equipment.
Good to know. Will give it a try. Thanks!
> a reliable power grid

Texas ranks about middle of the pack by most statistics in electrical grid reliability while also being one of the cheapest places in the US. Its also expanding renewable energy faster than any other state in the US, by a massive margin.

> electrical pricing that doesn't swing by 4 orders of magnitude or more

Clearly shows you don't actually know what you're talking about. The vast majority of households and businesses in Texas are on fixed rate contracts. The price of my electricity swings every three years or so. The headlines you're reading are spot prices; the vast majority of people don't directly pay those.

> a well-funded public school system with science-based curriculum to develop their children into a skilled workforce capable of critical thinking, being retrained, etc

Eh, PreK-12 35th overall according to US News, not great. 25th for higher education, so exactly middle of the pack. There's a lot worse of places to be education-wise. It really varies from school district to school district though. US News ranks the high school my kids will eventually attend in the top 16% of schools nationally. The smaller college I attended was ranked in the top third of all national universities. Not too bad.

> Why would they go to Texas?

As mentioned, loads of opportunity and comparatively low costs of living compared to a lot of other places.
Any time there’s been an Israel Palestine flair-up in the past 20 years I’ve had to VPN to another country and read about it from publications in countries with less skin in the game

The US news was so unreliable on that topic, no room to learn anything or have any perspective aside from what was presented verbatim

and then that expanded to more topics and politics, and then “everything is political” so its just useless

I just read macroeconomic news and trade sometimes. I feel like richer people have been doing that and immune to any geo/political outcome for hundreds of years
I've been messing around with an nreal air which although not a true VR/AR display it is a pretty good HMD for consuming pancake content. Most of the time I use it with a Steam Deck, which it's perfect for. I have had to use it for work once due to a screw up during a desk move that left me without a workstation for a day. The nreal worked fine, but I had a ton of trouble with software. Even with Dex, Android was still pretty clunky. Using Windows/Linux/Dex all leave me with the same hacky feeling that I get when I use a desktop OS on a large TV. Like the scaling feels all wrong, you know?

I just got the nreal beam, which allows for more flexible placement of display feeds in the glasses. It helps, but I still find the clipping problem with low FOV displays crappy.

Apple is probably the best positioned to nail the software side of this, but I think it'll be a couple years before the hardware fully catches up.
Indeed. The article says it's an unknown pathogen, so literally an unknown disease. Hopefully they name it after the man.
When we define intelligence as having the ability to do the things that only humans do, it's no wonder that we can't see intelligence in other species.

Most animals don't have digits they can use to manipulate things with the precision we do. That doesn't mean they aren't intelligent.

There are dogs that have learned to ride public bus and metro systems. They know how to act to be accepted in these scenarios when other animals would not be. They have a sense of where they will be going and what the purpose of the vehicle is. They can use their noses to detect things that we cannot even with our fancy tools, and we even rely on them for their noses when our human tech fails.

If intelligence is the domain of humanity then I'm not so interested in intelligence. I'm interested in whatever it is that allows sentient beings to understand, operate within, and adapt to their environments.
