One of my kids learned a foreign language by watching cartoons in that language on youtube. We had NEVER spoken that language at home (but I can speak it). They didn't speak that language in kindergarten (he was 5 years old at that time and we didn't live in a country where that language was spoken). He just watched the videos and after a few months we noticed that he was laughing "at the right places". We asked him why he was laughing. He said "Because the [main character] just said [something specific about a horse]". I thought "okay, maybe he had watched that episode already in our language and he remembered what they said", so I asked him "Can you say [something in our language] in [the foreign language]?". He did. It was correct, pronunciation and grammar.

Do you think an adult could do the same?

Oh yeah recruiters.

If they ask how long I have been looking I say 2 weeks: shows I am seriously looking so worth investing in but not on the shelf too long.

If they ask if I have applied to other companies: yes a couple, if at interview stage “yes I have another company I am interviewing with”. Too many it looks like they wont be able to snag. Too few and it looks like you don’t have leverage to negotiate.

Wouldn't the developers of privacy-focused blockchains like Zcash and Monero also be liable under this logic? Surely they also knew that criminals would use anonymous transactions and they did nothing to implement KYC / AML.

IMO, this is what books are for: advice for some form of large common denominators. And if I cite a book, I think it's fair game to assume I am familiar with its contents. And if you encounter my question and haven't read the book, I would hope you benefit just by knowing it exists and maybe even read it.

Some countries are named for particular cultures which have existed for longer than a particular government using the name. For example, the current governing body of "France" was established 4 October 1958 [0]. But if you go to a French bakery you might buy a fresh croissant which dates to maybe 1839 [1]. Is that not still French even though the current republic is over a hundred years younger?

This is mostly wrong advice mutated from trading and that mostly doesn't apply for the highly asymmetrical power balance that exist in salary negotiation, but which still get repeated ad libitum in blogspam sites.

Instead of trading like you're in a bazaar in middle east, focus on doing your research. Know your worth, and how to substantiate your worth during an interview.

Tell the numbers openly when asked, bodily and proudly, and have it confirmed that falls into their budget, and back up your worth with an adequate interview.

Can you imagine doing five rounds only to discover your ask would have never be met, that's madness, how can people suggest that?

Absolutely unprofessional, wastes everyone time, and put all the chances into a single, high stake rounds of wage roulette. And who has the most to lose there?

Especially in countries with limited PTO, just tell that number, and filter out interviews that would have lead to inadequate offers.

Instead of taking the problem with random adhesiveness, just put all that effort upfront and go in the meeting with a number that is well researched both in terms of matching or beating the market and in terms of allowing you to earn your living.

You can always tune the ask down if you're not getting enough interviews, or up if your getting too many. If you get a job too easy, pass and look for a better one, use the job market signal about your performances against itself.

Your ask and the demand will put passing interview on a Gaussian curve. From there is just a repetition game. Ask too much and you'll need infinite time to get a job, but knowing the variance you can establish an ask that matches your time horizon.
Sounds very important to you that you don’t have to change the premise of your essay or ever admit you’re wrong.

It's quite a fun thought experiment to think about how you might avoid this bias.

Send Blackhawk helicopters to collect samples by force? Was there bias in the selection technique? What about the people genetically predisposed to avoid the Blackhawk helicopters? We'd need multiple collection methods, and still need to retain an unbiased distribution. You can continue until you get to "we should set up global search patterns so that no human can escape our dystopian DNA collection". And even then you're still biased by population effects owing to the probability that there is a genetic population who have been predisposed to suppress their own genetic population at this point in time.

Gosh, it sounds like a fever dream.

I assume they mean that all future work on open forks must be prepared to defend itself against accusations of copying work that might take place on the BSL upstream (especially given that the starting points for both are identical codebases, meaning future fixes/enhancements will have a high likelihood of doing similar things). This burden did not exist before the license change.

It might be different in the US but in Australia the way it works is:

60% of jobs will tell you a salary range either on the ad or via the recruiter.

The rest wont play the “you tell me first” game and just pass on you.

Since more offers is more leverage it might be better to play their game individually to have a better overall position (more offers)
It's a matter of time scales. If every car sold today were electric, it would still take 15-20 years for us to completely replace the fleet. Remember, there are a good 1.2 billion or so cars, and around 65-70 million are sold a year.

If the cost of this technology could be brought down within a decade, it would be a way of reducing emissions for the large chunk of the fleet that isn't electric, in a cost effective manner.

The other, more pragmatic, answer is that internal combustion engines aren't going anywhere. They have too many advantages over their competitors to ever fully go away, so we need cost effective ways of running them that are also carbon neutral or negative. Some of the links in this chain, like low cost electrolysis, are vital for other reasons (e.g. the food we grow uses fertilizer made from hydrogen split from fossil fuels. We need the fertilizer or the planet starves, and we need a source of hydrogen that doesn't also produce 11 tonnes of CO2 for every tonne of hydrogen produced).
In the Smarter Every Day video, they're literally under a polar ice cap.

I would think that location plays a big role.
I don't see where it says in the article that they were blocking known OFAC sanctioned addresses, etc., but they do state that they were operating without any KYC provisions whatsoever, and that is a big no-no if you don't want to run afoul of money laundering laws in the US:

> Tornado Cash operated without know-your-customer (KYC) or anti-money laundering (AML) programs as required by US law, the document alleges. It also did not register with FinCEN as a money-transmitting business, the indictment says. Semenov and Storm also created a document called “Tips to Remain Anonymous,” which advised customers to consider using Tor or a VPN, delete data from their web browsers, and leave their money in Tornado for longer periods of time to better anonymize their transactions. They also advised users to employ different IP addresses for deposit and withdrawal.

As a bonus, the investors wouldn't fund a compliant version:

> Storm suggested creating a version of Tornado with KYC / AML enabled, but Tornado’s unnamed venture capital investors were dismissive, saying, “I just don’t know if anyone will actually want this.” The investor added, “It would be unlikely as a fund that we’d use a ‘compliant mixer.’”

I'd say these investors are as complicit in whatever conspiracy the devs are being charged with as well.
Yes, there are (eg. wigle.net, mostly based around wifi, but also scans cell towers), but the data is very noisy, since every phone is different and everyone wears it differently (if you wear it higher, in a shirt pocket, you'll get higher signal levels than if you carry it in a pants pocket, or in your hand, or if you have an old iphone, if you're holding it in your left hand instead of the right).
It's also prominently asking you to upload a picture of your face along the rest of the controls
This is a small price increase for storage, but a significant price reduction for egress. IMO this is super interesting, because it makes B2 a feasible option for sync use cases.
Your analogy would only make sense if Tornado Cash (Puppy Kicker 3000) was created for the purpose of money laundering (kicking puppies), but it seems like it was created for consumer privacy reasons.
There is a target area we want to land in order to investigate certain terrain or other POI's near the target.

It obviously can't land on mountains and certain rocky or steep terrain. They know its limitations. These limitations determine where it can or can't land.

During target selection they will find an adaquet place on the surface that meets the criteria.

By increasing from 500m^2 to 4000m^2 they need to find a larger area that meets those same needs.

This also helps during the actual landing. It can aim anywhere inside that 4000m^2 area instead of being limited to just a 500m^2 area.
oh hey! a goal to aim for.

Nvidia has a small lead on the industry in a few places, adding up to super attractive backend hardware options. They aren't invincible, but they profit off the hostility between their competitors. Until those companies gang up to fund an open alternative, it's open season for Nvidia and HPC customers.

The recent Stable Diffusion results are great news, but also don't include comparisons to an Nvidia card using the same optimizations. Nvidia claims that Microsoft Olive doubles performance on their cards too, so it might be a bit of a wash: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2023/05/23/microsoft-build-nvi...

Plus, none of those optimizations were any more open than CUDA (since it used DirectML).

> crunching 4/8/16 bit width numbers is no rocket science.

Of course not. That's why everyone did it: https://onnxruntime.ai/docs/execution-providers

The problem with that "15 competing standards" XKCD is that normally one big proprietary standard wins. Nvidia has the history, the stability, the multi-OS and multi-arch support. The industry can definitely overturn it, but they have to work together to obsolete it.

> An important motivation of the rationalist movement, as I saw it, was that we were all very irrational beings, and had to struggle to become more rational. My argument in this essay is that we are actually very rational, but managed to convince ourselves, for a variety of (perfectly rational) reasons using a variety of tactics, that we were helpless idiots.

Exactly my reaction when I saw how much energy LessWrong wasted on Torture vs. Dust Specks.
It's interesting to notice when utilitarian arguments are accepted and when they're rejected. The argument offered in favor of abortion without limits tends to be that women will get abortions regardless, they will just be dangerous. Presumably the greater good is served by allowing abortions despite the moral issues surrounding killing fetuses/unborn children. I have no trouble imagining many people supporting such a utilitarian argument for abortion but not for generated CP. Though I have a hard time making the distinction intelligible.
That sourcing of that paragraph is pretty ambiguous. My guess is that this is coming from the Romans' lawyers, and it's precisely that: an attempt at constructing a defense where they were just pawns of a bigger fish. And maybe it'll work, but given the context I'd apply salt until we have a name attached to the "unnamed venture capital investors" and some level of documentation of that conversation.
> will increase 2-3 times further.

That and possibly way more than that is already priced in. Nvidia's stock is extremely expensive not because of they are making now (which is not a lot relative to valuation, they just barely surpassed Intel this quarter in revenue) but because investors expect pretty much exponential growth over the next few years..

Why is that?

Are you suggesting that automakers wouldn't want to sell the cars there, or that people will be driven to over buy the stock?

I'm trying to understand why automakers would care how/what telemetry is mandated of them, when it's likely to be a mostly software change

For instance, automakers still bend over backwards for California through their CARB program

What is full steam ahead for enterprises? It's not like they're throwing autoregressive LLMs into production any time soon.

In any case Nvidia is expecting to ship ~550k H100s in 2023, hardly enough to satisfy every user.

Tesla decided to in-house. TPUv4 and Gaudi2 exceeded A100 performance, they just never hit scale or the market and then Hopper added optimization for transformers rendering these chips relatively obsolete.

Nvidia's lead is not unassailable and it seems incredibly unlikely that they would not face serious competition within the next 2-3 years given the $ being thrown around.
My favorite hot take from that article is that if a functional test can't exercise a piece of code, delete it. That is, if the code can't be exercised in normal usage of your program, it serves no purpose.

One retort might be that sometimes code defends against malicious actors who, say, have direct access to private endpoints etc., but if you're defending against such threats, either that requirement drives your functional spec (e.g. banking infrastructure) or maybe you're taking things a little too far.
those same businesses are spending $2M/yr on salesforce
If someone took the Tornado Cash contract source code and redeployed it on Ethereum under a new contract address today and people began using it, do you think someone deploying such a contract should face similar charges?

Should the original developers face additional charges for that?

What if the original developers only published the contracts but never deployed them on Ethereum, leaving that up to someone else to do? Is it the author or the deployer or the user who is liable?

I mean, someone has to be liable if it didn't exist before and then it did, but if it's the author and not the deployer, you could be charged for code you wrote entirely offline and published to GitHub (if someone else later deploys it and it sees use).
You're making the case that heuristics aren't useful, and I just don't agree with that given how I employ them effectively.

- "Differential and Integral Calculus", Piskunov.

- "A Course of Higher Mathematics", Smirnov. This one could be a bit expensive, but if you find yourself in a country that has had good relations with the former Soviet Union, you might find it a a really affordable price because they had licenses to print these books, and generally speaking, the MIR Publishers, Moscow, books.

- "Problems in Mathematical Analysis", Demidovich.

- "Course of Theoretical Physics", Landau.

- "Problems in General Physics", Irodov.

You'll note that there are "course" books and "problem" books in there.

I don't write for other people, I write so that I can look back in time and see how I used to think. I write mainly because my memory is fallible and changes how I remember things. 99% of the things I write are never published, and the 1% that is published goes on my personal site that's hidden from search engine crawlers.
I have an options strategy that is riding on this possibility right now.

All you have to do is take 5 seconds in a typical code base to determine that the way we write software today isn't exactly... ideal. Given another 6-12 months, I cannot comprehend another ~OOM not being extracted somewhere simply by making the software better.

I think the flip side of that is we also have to acknowledge when "the cat is out of the bag", "you can't unring a bell", pick your metaphor.

Like with music, there was a historically brief period where distribution companies had a monopoly because the nature of the technology allowed artificial scarcity. That ended with the internet and digital music. We could (and did) try doubling down on enforcement efforts to support some unnatural state, or embrace it. And we ended up with streaming music that provides value by convenience instead of artificial scarcity.

I don't have a vision for how the fake porn industry will shake out, but I know it's a waste of time to try and build walls to stop anything that's inevitable. That probably means tools that let people do what they want in their own homes, and norms about public sharing that will be enforced in most places but can be circumvented by those who are dedicated. That's not a moral judgement of that being an ideal state, its just realistic, and given resource scarcity, there are more important things for law enforcement to deal with.
> aren't most people using packages built on top of CUDA like pytorch etc?

Yes, and in fact both AMD and Intel have libraries. You can run Stable Diffusion and suchlike on AMD GPUs today, apparently. And you can export models from most ML frameworks to run in the browser, on phones and suchlike.

> If Intel is 10% slower but 50% cheaper [...] would that not be an enticing product?

Sometimes, yes. Some of the largest models apparently cost $600,000 in compute time to train [1], so halving that would be pretty appealing.

However, part of the reason for nvidia's dominance is that if you're hiring an ML engineer for $160,000/year spending $1,600 to give them an RTX 4090 is chump change.
