Afaiu, the whole idea behind rotary embeddings is kind of a hack to switch the similarity metric (that compares query to keys) inside the scaled_dotproduct_attention without having to rewrite the optimized code of scaled_dotproduct_attention.

This custom similarity metric has some properties engineered into it, mainly some invariance with relative positioning, and learnable decay with increasing distance (keys-query similarity decrease with increasing distance in position space and the network can learn how important is position distance compared to feature-space distance). It's a strong prior that works well when relative positioning is important.

It's a refinement of the traditional attention : It's a different and more ambitious aim than what sinusoidal position are trying to do, which is just provide some position information to the neural network so that it can distinguish keys and let it learn what it sees fit.

Sinusoidal position embeddings can learn some relative positioning quite easily because of trigonometry, but they have to learn it. Rotary embeddings have relative positioning baked in : everything is relative to the query position (quite similar point of view as a convolutional network), and the only thing they learn is how important small position distance compared to high position distance should be.
When what you want is full-time work with benefits, and all of the fixed schedule commitment and expectation of "you will always show up at a given time for a specified duration" stability that comes with that, then gig work seems like a major step down and even a cynical plot by corporations to deprive you of something you think you should rightfully have. But when what you want is gig work and all of the flexibility that comes with that, and there are many people who want this and have wanted it for years - even decades before the so-called gig economy became a buzzword- then gig work is perfect and irreplaceable.

There are some niches that have operated under the gig work model for almost 100 years, such a certain sectors of trucking where drivers own their own rigs and specifically choose to enter that line of work, as opposed to a salaried job where they don't have to worry about maintaining their own vehicle, precisely because they want the ability to simply switch their (very well-paid 6 figure minimun) job off like a light when they feel like it, for a couple of weeks or a couple of months or longer, and then switch it back on.

I personally know a guy who has performed with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra for almost 20 years doing exactly this. he's a trucker with his own rig and his own schedule on his own terms for 6 months out of the year, and tours with the orchestra for the other 6 months. This type of lifestyle would not be possible if there was no established gig system available for people who wished to have that flexibility.

Mozilla actually fired the Servo developers to focus solely on Firefox (they still employ Rust developers, just not on Servo). But after some years, other companies picked up development on Servo.

That's something the church decided to set up. Being a member of an organization means following their rules, and yes, that can become complex when you're in an organization with many chapters (e.g. international) where each chapter has its own quirks.

As for the fee: it's bureaucracy, and as such, it costs a processing fee. When you join, the church pays for you, when you leave, they don't.

Both of these are decisions made by the church, not the state. Bring it up with them.

The tax office is just the collection agent. That arrangement made more sense when wages were paid in cash, but the employer already diverted your income tax (+ "church tax") for you (and then the tax office routed the church tax portion of that to your registered church, in a time when practically everybody was member of _some_ such organization).

Maybe it should be revised or dropped, but from the government's point of view, that's a loss in income (approximately 0.08 × 0.03 ~ 0.25% of church members' income tax revenue: 400M€ in 2022 less for the tax collectors) for a service that's practically free to implement.

(full disclosure: I'm a member of an organization that chose not to use the church tax scheme for its members.)

You are right about that being the cheapest, of course, in the sense that 64gb of HDD space is always going to be cheaper than RAM. But when you say

> thousands for RAM

I wonder if your perspective might be a little off - you can get 64GB DDR4 RAM for ~$100, it’s really not a big deal these days.

It’s a big deal on Mac, of course, where 64GB means big kitted out high-end model that costs thousands, but RAM really is that cheap.
And the internment of American citizens with Japanese heritage was also found to be permissible. That doesn't mean that it was Constitutional by any reasonable standard, it means that our horribly flawed system doesn't always function correctly.

>Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press;

That is the text of the Constitution. It is simply absurd to suggest that forcing a member of the press to disclose their source does not "prohibit" much less "abridge" the freedom of the press. The founders understood that the independence of the 4th estate was absolutely critical to the function of a self-governed republic. Allowing the powerful to pass laws criminalizing journalism by forcing them to reveal their sources under penalty of imprisonment is simply an end-run around the Constitution by those who wish to retain their power and remain beyond scrutiny. This is especially true in the current environment, where the government classifies virtually everything they do, down to the most mundane government functions. Democracy dies in darkness, and so do republics.

Children are a long term commitment. Being richer won't necessarily make a person have more children if they are uncertain whether the riches will continue. A $1000/month car, per the article, can be disposed of if things go bad. Children can't (unless you are in a Monty Python movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWWAC5ZMKeM )
Incentives.

Having children is prohibitively expensive.

For example, Australia has like, what is it, 2.1 children for every 1 unit of child day care available.

There’s these things called “childcare deserts” - places where childcare isn’t available within a reasonable distance.

And a market shortfall of something like a million homes.

Don’t blame me, I voted for the other party. Oh wait, they’re greedy landlords too. Oops.
This argument does not invalidate the original comment. I think my parents were stupid to have me and could have enjoyed their life better. I think i had two of the top 10 parents worldwide but still, it was a decision made with naivety and stupidity of youth.
Science: every well-defined problem has a correct solution.

Marketplaces need to be held liable for products and services sold through them.

And when you have a dispute with a seller that came through a marketplace, your dispute should be with the marketplace and it is then up to the marketplace to recover the value of the goods from the seller.

Well I can't speak for anybody else, but me and my partner are pushing mid to late 30s and simply haven't got there because of cost and lack of financial stability.

It's difficult to impossible to survive on a single income like my parents did to raise me, and the cost of childcare is the same as losing one income regardless.

For better or worse the economy has been reshaped around the assumption of dual income, full time working couples.

Wikipedia is a good source or at least points to good sources. The exception is political articles, which are often framed in a very one-sided way, especially if a topic has hit the news cycle. At least some articles are subjected to this, others might be fine.

At least in web development rolling your own is usually the pragmatic choice. It won't break opaquely upon update, you can fix it yourself, it only does what you need. Library and platform updates have a much higher chance of breaking something because of the large impact surface, feature updates being conflated with security updates, insufficient testing, and such breakages are much harder to resolve because they are a black box to you. Really nothing to do with personalities.
Last time I ran the numbers (which admittedly was quite a number of years ago now), the difference between minified and unminified code was negligible once you factored in compression because unminified code compresses better.

What really adds to the source code footprint is all of those trackers, adverts and, in a lot of cases, framework overhead.

It's not. Gig work is one of many options.

You can be a full-time employee. You can be a part-time employee. You can start your own business. You can work for local, state, or federal government in innumerable roles.

Or, if it suits you, you can be a gig worker.

Focus on specific cases of companies treating workers unfairly, as this legislation appears to do. There's no point railing against "the system" because there is no "system".

One thing I've been considering is the existence of the 401k or basically the Bogle strategy as a whole. Both expect yearly gains over time, due to increasing amounts going into the pools.

But what happens when the elders start drawing down that money, and there isn't a base to replace it?

Going forward, we could actually see such values shrink, I think?

Eh, I'm not sure that follows.

So under U.S. law, the more "transformative" something is (as opposed to "derivative"), the more likely it is to be deemed fair use. The line between derivative and transformative is fuzzy but generally, something like a movie adaptation of a book is derivative whereas parody is transformative.

Given that, suppose I have a cat pic. Google creates a thumbnail of that cat pic, which is, by itself, obviously derivative. But Google includes my cat pic alongside many other cat pics in response to a query for cats, the thing as a whole starts looking more transformative.

Now suppose my cat pic gets sucked into a generative AI. I suppose it could be used to create a merely derivative copy of the original cat pic, albeit with reduced quality, like a thumbnail. But the whole point of these models is to recombine features from millions of images to create something unique. That is, if I tell the model to draw a cat, it combines features from thousands of other cat pics. Which seems at least as transformative as simply showing the same cat pics in a grid.

From an ethics standpoint, the main difference between Image Search and a generative AI is attribution. Google Image Search is just links whereas Stable Diffusion is sort of opaque about its sources. But attribution isn't one of the factors of fair use -- a parody which makes fun of the original without ever directly identifying the original is still parody.

That said, I suppose you could argue it affects the economic impact of the copying, one of the other fair use factors -- it seems plausible to me that AI generated images impacts the market for, say, Getty images in a way that does image search does not. But it's anyone's guess how a court would balance those two things -- courts very often pretend all of the fair use point one way to discussing how factors are balanced.
Aging population per se isn't a problem, because better hygiene, lower child mortality and enough food creates the same effect.

Lower economic growth doesn't have to be. Fewer people means less supply on workforce means higher wages means higher purchasing power. The existing people would like to be more, but can't afford because of low wages. Fewer people will give them leverage.

It's now 2023 and certificates are still a pain in the butt.

The web needs a better solution than Let's Encrypt.

We need a certificate authority to which you can prove control over a domain by putting a file in:

And get a wildcard cert this way.

Let's Encrypt's approach to require changing DNS entries for this is not the way to go.

Their argument seems to be that user generated content might end up in a file. And therefore file authentification is only good for individual hostnames. But which website let's you put user generated content into /.well-kown/ on the root domain?
