I hear you. I respect the process and practice. I would invite you to ponder what would happen if all the iPhones and iPads in one country were to be bricked overnight by an OTA update - billions of dollars worth of instant economic damage just from the device cost, many billions more in consequences including lives lost. Well this capability probably exists somewhere at Apple. I hope it's well guarded by process and perhaps this process is costly not unlike recertification. Does the ability to deliver critical fixes quickly make it a safer system on balance, versus the Nokia and BlackBerry era where your firmware essentially never changed ever because the cost of delivery was so high? My guess it that it does on balance represent an improvement. But maybe I misunderstood and the millions of dollars in cost of delivering the fix were actually spent on due diligence, as opposed to just mechanically applying the patch.

"Fine-tuning even Lora on the open source models is nearly always better than these other approaches"

Can you expand on that? I've not seen evidence of that myself yet, but maybe I haven't looked in the right places.
Fine-tuning is coming soon for GPT-3.5-turbo and GPT-4 from both Open AI and Azure. Still, I don't think many users will need it.

Fine-tuning is not a solution for getting fresh data as you would with RAG, unless you are planning to run your entire fine-tuning suite for every new document. It can help improve accuracy a bit when you need to specialise the model for a very specific domain or modality. In practice, this is rare and unnecessary for most use cases building on LLMs.

The counter argument to your assertion (my own opinion, not Microsoft's) is that the reason you hear so much about fine-tuning from everyone other than Open AI / MS, is that they offer less capable models that can't reliably produce the same quality of results without fine-tuning.
I also have an experience where the design of the neighborhood heavily affects interaction with my neighbours. I live in a street whose entrance is too narrow for cars. Except for the occasional motorcycle, the soundscape makes it possible to chat every time I exit my house and there’s no barrier between the houses affecting visibility. Hanging out in front of the house is enjoyable because the backyards are tiny. We have a great relationship with all our neighbours and they form a sort of extended family. In the beginning, one thing that surprised me was the social dynamics reminding me of school, but it still beats anonymity. There are great demonstrations of support with the elders, the parents, or the alcoholics of the street when they can’t open their door at night. We are quite different from each other but physical proximity overcomes it.
> where an estimated 65 million homes are left empty

Wow this number sounded absolutely crazy although I guess it makes sense with 1.4 billion people. I looked up USA stats - 140 million total homes, 16 million of which are vacant. I wonder how dispersed they are.. 16 million vacant homes in this housing market.

Map of vacancies https://landgeist.com/2021/08/03/vacancy-rate-in-the-us/

This article is interesting but it doesn't line up at all with the one above with the map. Completely different list of which cities have the most vacancies.

https://anytimeestimate.com/research/most-vacant-cities-2022...

> There are more than 16 million vacant housing units in the U.S. (16,078,532).
5.8% of rental units are vacant, while 1.4% of homeowner units are vacant — a 314% difference.
The overall vacancy rate in the U.S. is 11.6%.

The most vacant city is Orlando, Florida, with an overall vacancy rate of 15.3% and 160,952 vacant housing units.
Seven metros have an overall vacancy rate that exceeds the national rate of 11.6%:

Orlando, Florida (15.27%)
Miami (14.75%)
Tampa, Florida (13.71%)
Birmingham, Alabama (13.23%)
New Orleans (13.1%)
Riverside, California (12.13%)
Jacksonville, Florida (11.87%)

The least vacant city is Minneapolis, with an overall vacancy rate of 4.6%.

What is this skill/qualification?
Uh huh, so is that the only thing the bill does not let local governments decide? Of course not.

Let local governments regulate for their city. If they make bad decisions, they will reap the consequences.

In any case, telcos should never get immunity from any local laws and regulations.

Edit: And it's not like telcos can't go to city council meetings and explain, with numbers, why certain regulations are bad.

In addition, I bet that if the telcos were forced to build an entire neighborhood, they would actually lower their prices to get more people to sign up in order to better recoup their costs. That would be a good thing!

Telcos want the monopoly without regulations. But if you're a monopoly, you have to be regulated or you're going to abuse your position.

So I don't feel sorry for telcos at all.

OK you are right, Gmail may use IP-based rating, but it only does that if there isn't sufficient proof (in form of DKIM signatures) that the email is sent on behalf of the domain. If the email is DKIM aligned, then domain rating is used. I just didn't want to go that far into detail in my post.

> There is a reason Mailchimp owns a rather large block of IP addresses.

The reason is mostly for supporting smaller/legacy/self-hosted email services that do rely on IP reputation. Since Mailchimp won't allow customers to bulk email unless they have DKIM set up correctly, they don't have to worry as much about IP spreading with the major email service providers.
If Amazon can't make it work, might just use good old postfix I guess.

My anecdotal evidence is that simple postfix setup with IP from a reputable hoster which is not blacklisted works perfectly. And it's actually pretty simple to configure postfix for sending mail (now configuring postfix + dovecot + auth + spam filtering is another story).
I mean, yeah that resolution is ridiculous, but anything above 1080p on a screen less than ~14 inches is going to have diminishing returns and most of those returns will be in how "pretty" it is, not how useful it is.

Ages ago, there was TextPad -- a commercial product. Back when I was munging textified order histories for a multinational (lots of orders, ergo huge text files), it was great up through version... 4.7.3, I seem to recall. Then, they started redesigning some things in ways I found enworsening (if I may be permitted to riff off of the current linguistic trend). But, IIRC, it remained fast with big files.

This all was 20+ years ago. I wonder whether they're still around...

I wondered if this can be used to automatically look for abbreviations of the 10.000 english words except for the most frequent 150 or so. In this way I could construct an english alphabetic shorthand.

I think this really depends on the kind of applications you’re developing, and how you use frameworks during the development process.

Frameworks really shine at quickly proving out concepts. They enable prototypes that would have otherwise been too costly to produce, which is often the difference between a project moving forward or not.

The problem is often what comes next: teams fall for the productivity boost and carry the rapid design forward expecting similar gains throughout the rest of the project.

I use frameworks when I want to get ideas out of my head. I tend to throw framework code away if I take the project further, and I’m in a better position to implement from scratch knowing what I’d do differently.

YMMV, the environment you work in makes a big difference, the kind of thing you’re building makes a big difference, etc.

Why is running fiber somehow more expensive than dsl, cable, or power cables? Spoiler; It's not. Chattanooga's EPB runs fiber to every home that has power.

Sadly, Pine has a long history of using poorly-supported chipsets and doing nothing to improve support. I want to like the company, and their hardware designs show a lot of promise, but ultimately they do not stand behind their product.

To give some context, the primary reason these kinds of massive housing projects are being built is to help local govts meet their revenue needs (eg. Pensions, Capital Expenses, Local Govt salaries) [0].

The Central Govt in China stopped subsidizing local and provincial govts in the 1990s as a way to force local govts to be more efficient along with incentivizing them to incentivize capitalist developments like a private housing market [1].

This financial mechanism is called a Local Government Financing Vehicle (LGFV) and this is what spurred the growth of ghost cities. [0] [1]

While a large number of local govts in China probably fudging GDP numbers, they're targeting different metrics and this is more of an issue with the less economically dynamic interior provinces like Ningxia, Sichuan, etc. The numbers in economically dynamic provinces like Guangdong, Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Zhejiang, etc are generally reliable [2]

There is a clear trend to absorb popular packages into the core and I believe the main reason is to reduce the number of dependencies. Deno, for example, goes on this direction. Given the recent security issues with npm packages, I think it's a good idea to reduce the number of dependencies.

Food Banks can be massive regional operations; and their volunteer programs often share, in a great presentation, data about the needs they fulfill.

If you told me that the Atlanta Community Food Bank warehouse was a cannot miss tourist destination, I might agree. Google would probably agree - after all I also like touring car factories and research centers.

On the other hand, Micro supports the Ctrl-based text nav/manip hotkeys (such as Ctrl-arrow, Ctrl-Backspace, CTRL-Home/End, also optionally combined with Shift for selection).

More of a DOS-origin set of hotkeys than GNU. So more familiar to some and less familiar to others.

It supports mouse interaction out-of-the-box, which is a big plus for some folks who haven't spent much time in keyboard navigation. The escape hatch is a nice option for some tasks, even for keyboard navigation pros.

Why do they even do research into emissions? Who cares? Shouldn't an independent organization be doing the studies anyways? They take oil from the ground and sell it, whether their customers want vaseline or unleaded gas, do long as it is legally permitted and they pay all the taxes, what other obligation do they have?

> ...funding misleading news and propaganda groups that dismiss such impacts and influencing authorities to scuttle efforts to switch to alternative power sources.

But did they break the law? Is there corruption in the government or academia? Then start by rooting out that corruption.

You are missing the point! This is the same mistake the war on drugs made! You want to bring big oil to their knees but so what? Are you saying people will buy shitty electric cars or nuke powerplants will be built because if that?

If I was an oil and gas ceo, I would just quitely move my hq and business to friendlier countries and have non-culpable subsidiaries run US/western side of things but I am sure they have resources to eventually escape any significant damages beyond a few billion dollars.

The fact that the political system is manipulated by powerful people and compnies is rightfully a root cause here. I have yet to see anyone sue congresspeople or crusade for lobbying/academia reform. Do you seriously blame publicly traded money making machines doing all they can to make more money? They're not supposed to care about the climate, your politicians are! Your academics who are supposed to present information to policy makers are. In the end you spend all your time protesting and crusadinf against anyone but the people ultimately responsible for it who can make effective change. Oil companies work for shareholders interests, elected politicians work for you.

And keep in mind, big tobacco is alive and kicking. You can near bankrupt oil companies, they'll still be very profitable and the problem is still unsolved.

My father came back from a visit to China maybe a decade ago with hundreds of pictures of ghost cities full of empty skyscrapers. Turns out there’s a Wikipedia article about the phenomenon, and it says that they are filling up with people over time and getting used as intended. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under-occupied_developments_in...

In the US it seems like most builds don’t get started until after it’s acutely needed. Makes sense given the way development investment works here. I know the situation is much more complicated in China than just where the money comes from, but maybe it’s a little bit of a good thing to build housing supply in advance of the demand? It seems like China’s economy supports doing that in a way that the US’s doesn’t.
Sorry, but no, the public perception is accurate. I do not own a car, meaning I've used trains to commute in four Bundesländer and after all my years I feel confident to say they have all been uniformly bad.

Two friends of mine have bought cars to go to work. A third is often crashing with me because they can't make it to their destination due to delays. And I changed cities in no small part due to a one-year train line closure that's six months behind schedule and counting. DB schedules ten minutes connections for trains that arrive nine minutes late and then argues "it's just nine minutes!" disregarding the actual fifty one minutes that it takes for the next train to arrive.

I love trains and I'll keep using them for as long as they remain the greenest option. But I hate DB with a passion and I dream of a day when those at the top end up in jail.

Yeah this is my problem. I could get so much more out of education than I probably would have when I was 17, but It’s impossible to work a decent full time job and go back to school. The schedules simply won’t allow it. Part time work pays shit, and I somehow have to afford not only tuition, books, fees, etc., but a cost of living that only gets more and more expensive.

You can trade money for time (or really spread money with time) in this case, but I have no interest in spending 10+ years just to have wasted what left of my “youth” in exchange for an undergraduate degree. Time IMO is more valuable than money, because there’s no chance in hell you can ever get it back.

I’m also not interested in getting a degree just for the sale of having a degree, or even as an economic mobility vehicle. Technically if that’s all you want there are programs out there, but tend to come with too many stipulations for my taste.
