Google is fine if you're searching for restaurants or a Wikipedia article. I'm sure they handle the vast majority of their mundane queries well.

It's awful, much worse than it used to be, if you're looking for some specific piece of information. Put a word or phrase in quotes, and it will still just ignore it after the first 3 or 4 results and give you a bunch of irrelevant garbage.
Since LLMs' only valid uses involve entertainment and creativity, and Toki Pona is more or less a recreational language without serious application, I think they go together like two peas in a pod.
Here’s a slightly different take: uniquely ai-generated project idea that you can do, get graded on, and use when applying to multiple companies. No issue with anonymity at that point, and it would be much less work on the programmer than multiple take home projects
With AVX512, you can use masking and the vpopcntb instruction to avoid moving values between GPRs and vector registers until the very end:

uint64_t count_occurrences(const __m512i* vec_string, size_t num_vecs, char target) {
__m512i count_vec = _mm512_set1_epi64(0);
__m512i target_vec = _mm512_set1_epi8(target);
__m512i increment_vec = _mm512_set1_epi8(1);
for(size_t i = 0; i < num_vecs; ++i) {
__mmask64 cmp_mask = _mm512_cmpeq_epu8_mask(target_vec, vec_string[i]);
count_vec += _mm512_maskz_popcnt_epi8(cmp_mask, increment_vec);
}
return _mm512_reduce_add_epi64(count_vec);
}
Would love to see some on the ground coverage instead of generic hacker ai generated hoodie pics, and what is almost certainly ai generated (or at least ai assisted) content.
Ever since Row v Wade was overturned, the method I've taken in arguments is to point out the now blatantly existing cases of misuse of private data to prosecute people. Many people know about the news now about how people have been arrested and convicted because of phone data that should have been private.

I haven't had this argument very often though, so so far there aren't indications as to its effectiveness. We'll have to see how it turns out.
This is a lot of people's experiences right now, young or old. As a manager who hires a lot, I could not care less about your age, would not even cross my mind as a criteria. Not saying agism does not exist, but not everywhere. It is an absolute buyer's market right now.
Last I looked, distrobox made $HOME fully accessible to all its containers. That's the very opposite of parent comment's "protect against the most trivial of supply chain attacks".

Security should not be implemented by anyone who is not a subject matter.

It's a subject where it's easy to sound informed while being completely wrong.

I'm of the opinion this should be a development interview question.

"How would you implement {security solution} from scratch" -- The only acceptable answer being refusal.
Also just the proportion of people doing HARD jobs. Being a farmer was brutal and not long ago 70% of the population worked in agriculture; now it’s like 2%. Machinery had simplified many tasks from ag labor to even housework. The laundry machine has been a game changer for women I’ve heard.
I agree that people generally seem to lack a decent intuitive understanding of risk. They only look at the current state of affairs, and the upside of the bell curve. They don't seem to remember or factor in the likely potential negative side of those distributions and adjust their planning for better resilience.

Can your boss tell? If they can, then you have no problem. If they can't, then you have a problem.

This is the other side of "I'm so much more productive with WFH". Everyone who values WFH should be asking themselves how they will help their company measure productivity. Over time companies will find new ways to manage productivity, possibly by restructuring work to make measurement easier even if the tasks have to change or by reducing labor costs to make unit productivity less important.

The key to making this work is the development of self replicating systems. We need to send seed factories[0] to asteroids or the moon to keep initial launch mass low. Once the seed factories produce sufficient copies of themselves they can produce larger scale mining equipment that can be used to refine the material in space before it is sent back to Earth for use in manufacturing.

Over time we can move more and more manufacturing off world to eliminate pollution that is destroying our ecosystem.

It's more the bigger investments that drive a lot of the economy that are the concern - think real estate and stocks. Why buy a $1 million home today if you'll be able to buy it from $980k next year, and maybe $965k the year after that? More importantly, why continue paying the mortgage on your million dollar home when it's likely never to be worth a million again? Why buy 10,000 shares of a company now, when in a few years you could buy 10,500 shares for the same price?

> But yeah it's still quite a bit more expensive, $2,000 is equivalent to about $5,000 now.

It's not quite that much. You calculated inflation off 1989 when the sale happened in 1998.

An inflation calculator puts $1,800 @ 1998 being worth $3,375 @ 2023. It's a massive difference in how much more expensive an inflation adjusted car is nowadays.

Fair point, though I'm not aiming to start a competing LLM SaaS service, rather i'm evaluating swapping out the TCO of Azure Cognitive Service OpenAI for the TCO of dedicated cloud compute running my own LLM -- to serve my own LLM calls currently being sent to a metered service (Azure Cognitive Service OpenAI)

Evaluation points would be: output quality; meter vs fixed breakeven points; latency; cost of human labor to maintain/upgrade

in most cases, i'd outsource and not think about it. BUT we're currently in some strange economics where the costs are off the charts for some services

There is no central coordination in sw dev, solution rise and develop on a close-to-anarchy situation, maybe partially this is a global consequence of a market-driven development in large scale solutions (first come first grab best advantage), and standards develop after this.. a madness.

But there is a real alternative? Maybe a wise use of "old" solutions, lang, libs, standards, before reinvent the wheel again, but never quite round..
Example: in the 1930, Dutch municipalities would record ethnicity for their citizens. The argument was that ethnicity wasn't something you'd need to hide, and it could be useful should you need to identify yourself.

When in 1940 the German occupiers took over, those records turned out to be very useful for their genocide.
My boss once registered sex.com, or perhaps sex.org, around 1994. He was absolutely jubilant about it. He became a venture capitalist, or angel investor, so this early domain name speculation was right up his alley. He had no sex-related content, or interest in it. I can't remember if it was before or after, that he inspired me to register my own personal domain. It was so easy, and so free, in those days. The trick was hanging onto them as registrars arose, and changed hands, and after the Bubble...

Interesting release, though still lacking a few features I've had to resort building myself such as code summary, code base architecture summary, and conversation history summary. ChatGPT (the web UI) now has the ability to execute code, and make function callbacks, but I prefer running that code locally, especially if I am debugging. This latter part, conversation history summary, is something that ChatGPT web UI does reasonably well, giving it a long history, but a sentiment extraction and salient detail extraction before summarizing is immensely useful for remembering details in the distant past. I've been building on top of the GPT4 model and tinkering with multi-model (gpt4 + davinci) usage too, though I am finding with the MoE that Davinci isn't as important. Fine tuning has been helpful for specific code bases too.

If I had the time I'd like to play with an MoE of Llama2, as a compare and contrast, but that ain't gonna happen anytime soon.
YMMV - it's not obvious to me. Almost no team I have worked in has been f2f due to offshoring and geographical distribution of functions in big companies. Only small companies can really do co-location.
Utopia, Not Futurism
I mean, I explicitly have the LLM summarize content that's about to fall out of the window as a form of pre-emptive token compression. I'd expect maybe they do something similar.
I think that’s a fair take. People feel comfortable with different things. Even in school I always surpassed others on take home assignments and struggled during tests.

There’s another aspect in your comment too, and that’s seniority. I was born a year after you started programming, so GitHub and online portfolios were just a natural thing for me to take on. If you have people that will vouch for you and you have decades under your belt, you can more easily get away with no leetcode and no take home.
The title seemed to match the content pretty well based on my reading.

>Yeltsin staged a coup with the help of the US

A blatant lie that keeps getting repeated. Yeltsin hired some American campaigners and advertisers because he wanted a loud Western-style election campaign. It's funny how Yeltsin having American campaign/advertising advisers has been spun into claims that the US did a coup in Russia.

It's right there in the article:

> The images here are generated by iterating the series typically 1,000 million times. This is performed in two passes, the first pass with many fewer iterations is used to find the bounds of the attractor on the complex plane, the second pass actually "draws" the attractor points. The process of drawing involves treating the bounded region of the complex plane as a 2D histogram, each time the series passes through a pixel region on the plane the histogram at that location is incremented. One might imagine the 2D histogram as a height field, a larger values at a point indicate that the complex series passed through that pixel more often than a point with a smaller value. At the end of the process the histogram is mapped onto colours depending on the histogram values, there are many ways to do this based on aesthetic grounds.
This isn't really true, given the Conflict of the Orders etc. Even in the Gracchi's case, they were essentially trying to pass land reforms, and Rome had a history of responding to that with violence since at least 486BC. Nobody in Rome's history had a particularly good solution to the central problem that they wanted a massive and expensive army, but didn't want it dominating politics.
Jobs that are posted on companies' web sites (not on recruiting web sites) give a much greater response rate.
Did the US really help Yeltsin? I thought Gorbachev was highly praised by the west.

After I started using Linux in 1994 I wanted to write my own OS that was entirely GUI based. I used this book to learn the fundamentals and it really would help explain a lot of the Linux code, and would also teach you how to even get your kernel loaded and booted, which is the hardest bit for a new OS:

Yes, but iPhones are not uniformly jailbreakable, and restricting yourself to a niche like that makes it harder to get people in (as users or as developers). You've essentially moved from a popular platform (iOS) to a very niche one (jailbroken iOS).

There are large differences though. The US poverty rate is 2.5x higher than Denmark's (15% to 6%). Denmark's life expectancy is 6 years longer. The kinds of policies you'd need to close that gap in the US would be transformative.

I have been looking far and wide for a tool that replicates Acrobat's /fill and sign/ feature, allowing me to fill out NON-form-fillable PDFs.

Something where I can fill it out, save, and then open up later to edit and add/remove previous additions.

Adobe as a business, their pushiness about creating an account and the fact that they bundle McAfee's shitware with Acrobat never sat well with me, so I'd love an alternative.

Surprisingly there's a few decent options on Android, but nothing worth while I could find for Windows or Linux.

Maybe someone here can help a guy out with a pointer?
Babylon 5 Is a Perfect, Terrible Series
Sure, except...

How does one enforce a strict subset with an easy setup? Why are people writing non-browser code in this horrible language, often without strict subsets or typescript?

Obviously there are solutions, but the solutions clearly aren't pervasive enough because the problem is still here (and growing, as more JS code is written), so we as an industry still need to keep talking about how problematic and poorly-designed JS is.

The real problem is that this argument relies on people actually meaning “anything”. It’s a strawman that’s so good, you get people actually trying to argue it, but the real argument isn’t about absolute publicity of information, it’s about providing access to additional information as a means to investigate wrongdoing. Very few people are practically suggesting every single fact ought to be public about a person.

Besides, doomsaying that “anything could be illegal!” isn’t backed by anything real or lasting.

I was looking at using this for my arch zfs-on-root setups, but I've instead just been hacking on /etc/grub.d/10_linux and /lib/initcpio/hooks/zfs to get the boot menu setup I want with grub. I like the simplicity of it this way with less dependencies (especially otherwise needing to use AUR for the zfsbootmenu build or use the pre-built binary blob).

One concern I had with zfsbootmenu was I couldn't figure out how to load microcode. With kexec, zfsbootmenu can only load one image and late loading microcode may be "dangerous" [1]. I don't know practically if that is a real security issue or not. I tried cat'ing my images together as below, but it still didn't work for me:

mv initramfs-linux.img initramfs-linux.img.orig
cat intel-ucode.img initramfs-linux.img.orig > initramfs-linux.img
