He forgot to tell Zuckerberg about it.

Elon basically proposed a fight he didn't think Mark would take. He, an MMA fighter, took it.

Now Elon wants to pretend he's in control by organizing a "historical reenactment event" in Rome. Which is just some random circus movements he's making in attempt to water down the original challenge, which was an actual "cage fight".

Well, I can imagine there might actually have been a connection to cryptography then. Not NSA related though.
Yeah, I'm not too concerned with "make more money," but the thing we seem to have to actively beat back every few years is "give Google effective ownership and control of how the web operates" -- something that I think might not be horrible in the short term, but I believe 100% would bite us in the long term.
You're being downvoted for a reply with literally nothing of any substance.

More specifically, it's because the reply is completely vacuous and utterly devoid of intellect as demonstrated by hyper-fixating on the current physical state of Elon. Nothing about this is useful.

It's not an exaggeration to say taking a crap is more beneficial to society than such commentary.
Any reason you haven’t changed jobs? A company has at most one full review cycle to not keep up with market before I start looking.
Exactly right. If you increase entropy you need energy to reduce it back. It be more valuable to take crap that humans have put together incoherently and summarizing it. (Perhaps someone should put a GPT on the other end in order to read it)

I honestly don’t know why we’re so obsessed with having LLMs generate crap. Especially when they’re very capable of reducing, simplifying. Imagine penetrating legal texts, political bills, obtuse technical writing, academic papers and making sense of those quickly. Much more useful imo.

There isn't such a tight distinction between security and privacy. Consider the Ashley Madison leak. I don't mean to defend people who violate their SO's trust - that's unconscionable - but clearly this was both a privacy and a security issue, data was stolen and leaked which revealed really intimate information which ruined people's lives.
There's also environmental factors to consider in anything physical, sure, you changed your oil, but what do you do with the oil now? There's no electrical pollution in running a server.
Sure, my own team work on multiple products, but it's all the same codebase and all of us share the work for all products between ourselves. There is another team in the company that works on an entirely separate product with a very different codebase (different tech stack entirely) and upper management seem to have this idea we would work better as one big "team" - thankfully so far we've managed to persuade them it would make little sense. I'd probably be looking for alternative job options if we had to do daily stand-ups with that many other coworkers, half of whom I'd never have reason to engage in actual teamwork with.
Move fast and break things, including basic security. Why anyone trusts Azure that all these prompts won't eventually be leaked is beyond me. No one goes broke trusting Azure, but I'd love it if someone was held responsible.

I was scared about organizations doing this and losing their connection to the humans they serve.

The realization that individuals will also have this barrier to the world is even scarier.

If it goes that way we could be looking at a change to society on the level of social media, again. Mad.
Can you tell me which one of the nix lsp servers supports the embedded configuration in multiline strings? I think neither rnix-lsp, nil or nixd support this, but maybe I am missing something.
Yes. About 2 million people more than Quebec. And African people don't seem to mind moving there despite the weather.

And even in Quebec, 3% or so of the all the people living there were born in Africa, the Middle East or the Caribbean. So they don't seem to mind the weather that much...

> [edit: was "about half a million, or 5%." but I now have conflicting citations…]

> Sweden, 2,752,572 (26%) inhabitants of Sweden were of a foreign background in 2021, defined as being born abroad or born in Sweden with both foreign-born parents.[290] Of these inhabitants, 2,090,503 persons were born abroad and 662,069 persons were born in Sweden to parents born abroad. In addition, 805,340 persons had one parent born abroad with the other parent born in Sweden.[290]

So ~18.8% of people living in Sweden haven't been born in Sweden.

About 2.2% of people in Sweden were born in Africa. Which is quite high for a a non colonial country. And I'm pretty sure you could rustle up another 10 million or so people throughout Africa who wouldn't at all mind moving to Sweden..
He was a dork with some self-restraint, and several layers of people managing him, as he's effective at drawing capital and talent with bold promises (not covered by reality) and visions of the future. He was always a dorky con-man, but he was useful in that role. As long as people didn't see what he truly was.

What happened here is those layers kept getting new holes. By him becoming increasingly bolder posting on Twitter, and now by trying to run it without his trusty lieutenants. The stress of buying Twitter and it losing billions, unstoppably, is adding to his self-restraint fading away. This is Elon, himself.

Always was.

And... it's hard to believe this, but Twitter can change you, addict you to certain behaviors, even if you're a billionaire. He craves the likes, the retweets, the replies. Despite being the richest person, he's incredibly lonely. Everyone around him is fake, trying to stay afloat and maybe profit somehow from their proximity to Musk, or having no choice. He has no friends, no wife. And he has no connection with his children aside from couple of photo ops per year with "lil X".

Twitter is his social life. And Twitter wants circus. So he delivers.
> really good programmers do have jobs

Maybe when he says "reall good programmers" he means the super productive people he's friends with. I know everyone on HN thinks they're in the top 10% of programmers, but realistically most of us are average or worse.
Android allows apps to use an arbitrary GPU driver? How does that work?

My point isn’t that you need to race to pay it off. But that people think “how big a home/lifestyle can I afford with this income? I’ll do that.”

You could do half that, make minimum payments if you want, and invest the rest. But either way, you find yourself in such immense control. You could lose half your income and not change your lifestyle. Or retire early. Or take bigger risks.

I’ve always been fascinated how people decide what kind of home and car and such they go for. It usually seems to be: as big as I can go. And then you’re not really that more secure. I guess you can sell your home and find something smaller, but that’s hard to do at any time with kids in school, let alone during bad times.

Just to be clear about your source for other readers. It discusses the workers who produce these counter tops versus people merely having them in the home (what I originally inferred with your comment), it says the mean age of onset was 43 years old, and that 79% of the workers with silicosis did not use personal protective equipment.
You misunderstand the scope of formal fallacies, which only apply to formal arguments. Most arguments aren't formal arguments, and that's ok; they aren't supposed to be. Instead of proving a conclusion from a set of premises, they rely on heuristics to draw probabilistic inferences.

In the context of a formal argument, the act of quoting Henry Ford would have been either the fallacy of appeal to authority (if the quote's provenance were meant to demonstrate its veracity), or the fallacy of bare assertion (if it were meant to stand on its own). I didn't invoke those fallacies because I understand that, outside the context of a formal argument, appeal to authority is a reasonable heuristic, rather than a fallacy. There's nothing fallacious about saying, for example: "Most doctors recommend getting vaccinated, so you should probably get vaccinated."

In this context, my reply is also not fallacious: it's reasonable to doubt the reasoning ability of a vicious anti-Semite, particularly on the subject of nefarious bankers, which is closely intertwined with anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.
Maybe I'm thick, but becoming competent in a new framework takes me a lot longer than a few days. For example, angular, ploughing through courses on plural sight slowly to properly absorb the lessons. Even after that I'm flailing about trying to do anything useful.

Point taken, I was inaccurate. Out of order designated initializers still don't work in C++20, right? Which still means C++ isn't a superset of C.

> Something as simple as undoing the participation trophy culture we've created would go a long way.

My now-dated recollection is that most kids had no problem recognizing "participation" trophies as substandard and lacking prestige. Everybody--including the recipient--knew it wasn't a real win. They were something you sheepishly accepted hoping that you could minimize your time in the spotlight and that peers wouldn't somehow tease you for it.

So, hypothesis: Participation trophies exist because of by pressure from parents. Either as a way for teachers/kids to mollify parents who want to see their child "win", or else parents who think they can trick their child into motivation.

With that framing--cynical kids and mistaken adults--the "participation trophy culture" has wildly different problems and solutions.
You are making some interesting point, but one of your main ones, point 1, is not even remotely true today (if ever?). Salaries for tenured (research) professors in STEM fields are "good". Starting salary in mid-level CS department is >150k for tenure track positions. That is within the top 10 percentile of salaries in the US. No one is expecting STEM professors to be from some blue blood family background. The majority of STEM professors I know came from lower-middle-class backgrounds and are significantly outearning their parents (adjusted for inflation too) and their professorship salary is far bigger than any other salary they have had in their lives (frequently by more than 2x).
Information Hazard Policy
I'm honestly surprised there is not an entire class of insurance programs for people who happen to live in a jurisdiction that has basically said "we would rather you die on a wait list than allow private healthcare" (e.g. British Columbia in Canada[1]). That insurance would cover healthcare abroad, maybe constrained to certain geographies and conditions. Unlike travel insurance it would assume that your care abroad is necessary due to a lack of services in your home jurisdiction.

Perhaps the actuarial data is hard to collect, but I suspect it would be a booming business as most countries with socialised system seem to be heading towards a total decline, if not outright collapse.

Yeah, I don't think opting-out is the morally superior option if you know that the competition is lying through their teeth too.

At a point, the only way to improve the world is to make things better than they otherwise would have been. Complaining feels good but at the end of the day doesn't deliver more value to customers, hospital patients, or anyone in-between.
It feels very human that we have a nearly post-scarcity delivery mechanism that we still optimize for rent seeking.
Sorry, I'm very ignorant about the laws around debt collection, but from this article it looks like that if you're sufficiently informed / prepared you can essentially not pay your debt repeatedly because debt collectors will automatically put you in the "not worthy" category. Is that correct? How can the system be so prone to abuse and why don't more people do that?
>43% of Ohio voters voted against their own interest last week. Majority of them are in lower side of the income.

What makes you think that raising the minimum wage would be in their interest? A comprehensive study[1] that factored in hours worked found that even though average hourly wage increased, hours worked went down, so total pay actually went down.

Dev wages have to come down. The last 10 years have been crazy. Lots of devs are paid like doctors, without the limited supply or years of expensive training. It wasn't going to last.
Your average line manager is no more elite than you the worker are. Depending on the depth of structure, to get to elites you need to go one or two levels up.
When I was at Amazon (ie until last Friday). We had three options - sell all, sell enough to cover taxes, or sell none of it and pay taxes - some other kind of way that I never looked into.

Even if that’s not the case, what’s stopping you from selling enough stock yourself once they vest and make quarterly payments?

My tax rate was 22%+7.3% FICA near the end when I moved to Florida - a state with no state income tax.
What exactly do you think that study contradicts? It seems to show that asbestos increases the risk of lung cancer for about two decades. That seems to support the comment you're saying it disproves, not disprove it.

we wrote a blog post about why companies do this here: https://www.lamini.ai/blog/specialize-llms-to-private-data-d...

Here are a few:

Ownership of IP

Control over ops

The table in the blog lists the top 10 reasons why companies do this based on about 50 customer interviews.
The repo contains the UI code, not the model or anything else around ChatGPT, it just uses Azure’s ChatGPT API which doesn’t share data with OpenAI.
Yep. Companies want all the burden to fall on employees while the profits go to execs and shareholders.

Any solution that would be fair to the employees will immediately be met with resistance.
You'll just have people reversing it into a summary on the other end, kind of like a "text" chat where both sides are using text-to-speech and speech-to-text instead of having a phone call.

That's a successful nap.

IME there's not much difference between 1 minute of sleep and 15 minutes. Both give me a similar recharge. I think a large part of it is relaxing enough to actually fall asleep.

Yes, exactly. I think it is mostly about the feeling of management. If the employee is present they "know" that he is actually working, if he is at home they are relatively powerless.
How you divide up your money isn’t really interesting. Yes, do the math.

What’s interesting is the idea that some people take on a lifestyle based on their income and they leave themselves no flexibility.
Anecdotes about "trust fund kids," asserting a "misguided war on inflation," and a vague conspiracy of unidentified landlords make the post seem more like a rant than serious economic analysis.

LOL.

It's literally the subject of the article. Empty Corporate Real-estate, offices, is driving a Return to Work effort by those corporations. So many people here are saying it is a 'conspiracy theory' hence not true. Many financial news outlets have reported on this, the properties are public knowledge.

Even Amazon does check its bottom line from time to time. It is possible they do care about hits to it. They aren't so profitable that they don't care about expenses.
What’s the goal then?
Generally speaking one major reason is that union representatives are also on company boards in the Europe. This gives them skin in the game and also the same knowledge that gets shared to the rest of the board. And they generally err on the side of employment; American unions have threatened, and successfully, brought down companies that ceased to be a going concern due to demanding unreasonable concessions. (See: Yellow Trucking)

But German unions are also very subservient given their tacit approvals of things like Agenda 2010.

A lot of companies are already using projects like chatbot-ui with Azure's OpenAI for similar local deployments. Given this is as close to local ChatGPT as any other project can get, this is a huge deal for all those enterprises looking to maintain control over their data.

Shameless plug: Given the sensitivity of the data involved, we believe most companies prefer locally installed solutions to cloud based ones at least in the initial days. To this end, we just open sourced LLMStack (https://github.com/TryPromptly/LLMStack) that we have been working on for a few months now. LLMStack is a platform to build LLM Apps and chatbots by chaining multiple LLMs and connect to user's data. A quick demo at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JeSavSy7GI. Still early days for the project and there are still a few kinks to iron out but we are very excited for it.
I was referring to the battery screwing into the plastic frame not the logic board screwing into it. For example my Carbon X1 has the battery screwed in. If they glued it to the body they could make the device thinner, although probably would have minor impact on weight.

Corporate greed knows no bounds. If they could erase your brain of "their" IP, they advocates would.
Solid point. With inequality like it is, we really need to use metrics like median household debt and income to make any sort of meaningful conclusions.
> but it requires fiddling with partitions by hand

Nowadays you can declare partitioning instructions with Nix just like the rest of the system: https://github.com/nix-community/disko

And you can use something like nixos-anywhere with it for a alternative process, if your provider isn't as cool as Linode and won't let you boot arbitrary ISOs: https://github.com/numtide/nixos-anywhere

Building images directly for cloud vendors' platforms on your local system and then pushing them up and assigning them to VMs is probably nicer than actually installing NixOS in the cloud, though. See this comment's siblings for that :)

Most companies are either not tech companies, or do not have the knowledge to manage such a project within reasonable cost bounds.
One thing I still don't understand is what _is_ the ChatGPT front end exactly? I've used other "conversational" implementations built with the API and they never work quite as well, it's obvious that you run out of context after a few conversation turns. Is ChatGPT doing some embedding lookup inside the conversation thread to make the context feel infinite? I've noticed anecdotally it definitely isn't infinite, but it's pretty good at remembering details from much earlier. Are they using other 1st party tricks to help it as well?
I’ve learned that the most important writing skill is to figure out what you’re trying to say — this is a rather important prerequisite to writing well.

Naively asking a chatbot to write for you does not help with this at all.

It would be interesting to try to prompt ChatGPT to ask questions to try to figure out what the user is trying to write and then to write it.
Being forced to interact with people one doesn't like, and having to perform work theater to maintain ones livelihood, is not a good thing for many people.

Besides which, WFH means more time with the family (also human contact) and skipping the commute means more time around people whose presence one actually enjoys.

All that said, I tend to agree with your point that people pushing RTO more due to their personal ideology (which clearly I do not share) rather than some grand conspiracy around real-estate.
He's the same, his public perception changed when he went against some aspects of the pandemic response. Now things that would have brought him praise are ignored and the weird things that would have been ignored or considered quirky are amplified with a negative wash on them.
