I’ve had a few run-ins with dang. Every post I write nowadays I have to reread carefully to soften any sharp edges and avoid getting into trouble, but I don’t always have time to double check a comment if I’m in a hurry. I wonder if there is a hidden reputation score or if it’s all just based off of dang’s memory. Public karma scores are mostly useless except as a vanity metric.
NEVER CREATE CARTESIAN PRODUCTS

For example:

SELECT clicks.session_id, clicks.page_url, sessions.user_id
FROM clicks, sessions;

(This context is guaranteed to generate lots of cartesian products.)
Any plans to support IntelliJ?
I have a simple gps watch that uses my weight to estimate calories and doesn't measure heart rate. It gives me the same as you, just under 100kcal/km for the same weight. But I'm convinced this is a dramatic overestimation, I run a lot and have for years, and I'd be eating way more if I really burned that much. I think with regular exercise we become extremely efficient and the calorie burn goes way down. I don't know if heart rate accounts for that or not, but overall I'm sceptical about calorie counts.
My mom worked as a secretary for a while and was always amazed at how fast one of her friends could type, compared to her. Turns out she had six fully functional fingers on each hand and her own method of typing!

IIRC the gene for six digits is actually a dominant trait, oddly enough.
which is the best model for coding right now, GPT4/copilot/phind ?
Not remotely close to my use case. Data filtering and extraction seems to be its niche, a problem you’re solving using it. My use case is different.

I think some sites have a feature, that when you downvote, you have to add some words/tags to why you downvote. I like that idea, it gives the commenter some concrete feedback, but also the downvoter a moment for reflection (is this really a bad comment, or do I just have a bite reflex because its language sounds like a (ideological) side I hate?)

I know that I have stupidly taken some downvotes personally, but later realized, those comments were maybe not bad by itself, but in that context attracting flamewar OT debates.
With some extra words, I would have realized sooner.

And downvoting for merely not liking someones opinion is something I really don't like, but is explicitely allowed here.
It seems to me that, done right, agrivoltaics could result in a negative land cost for PV, in that the value of increase in crop production (animal or vegetable) could outweigh losses from land taken up by panel supports and associated equipment.

That would further increase PV's cost advantage over other forms of generation.
Just noticed the article showing the "Recreate my problem" and "Start Collecting" feature...

That feature is sending an insanely large amount of personal data to Microsoft, and it's horribly irresponsible to include this feature as it is.
So basically countries that are necessary for China to secure energy, and for Russia and China to trade with each other?

Given that most of these countries are falling stars economically, it definitely seems to be a relationship of necessity more than anything.
How do you then tell the commenter why you downvoted them? How are they supposed to improve without feedback?
You said it doesn't take a genius to work it out but you haven't worked it out. It's opaque other than that we know it's a flag that can be manually set on the user without their knowledge
Probably the most relevant technical term if you want to look up studies is "exercise intolerance". It seems to be especially well-documented in heart failure patients, but it's also been studied in various chronic conditions.
That model is trained on synthetically AI-generated code, not internal code.

It suggests that synthetic training could be the future in increasing capability of smaller models (and perhaps bigger ones too). AI will train AI.
That should be inversely related to their usage though.
I am using HF frequently, but I am not sure if I would pay for it.
Nobody would ever mistake such a pasted face as belonging to the actual model, so most people wouldn’t care aside from the inherent creepiness of it.

Motive

Humans and most other things we consider to be alive - even viruses - have an inherent motive to reproduce. Evolution is a tautology: that which survives survives. If you stop reproducing, over time you tend to stop existing. LLMs have a clock, and no motive whatsoever. They rely entirely on us to produce them so far.

They can do what, how, and where, but they lack a "why".

Your final statement is grossly misleading. People do mind. I actually follow the chess world.

It is much easier now to cheat at chess than it ever was, and it even happens at the grandmaster level. In some ways, the most recent controversy with Magnus Carlsen is due to computers and cheating. Moreover, many people cheat at online chess.

Finally, chess is becoming less interesting for sure, now that computers have introduced such a high level of mechanization in the study of it.

SURE, people STILL enjoy chess, but one could CERTAINLY argue that computers, Deep Blue, and Alpha Zero have made chess less interesting due to cheating and over-analyzing. That is why some people have even got to playing random chess (random starting position), because the overemphasis on highly-studied opening plays, especially by computers, makes the whole process a little too machine-like.

What can animals do that humans with tools can't? Energy efficiency only matters in comparison to the energy you can obtain: for animals, that means eating stuff. For plants, it means absorbing sunlight. For us, it means harnessing forms of energy no other living thing has ever deigned to.
Bram Moolenaar's programming language, Zimbu
How it works has been rapidly evolving

But in short: yes, thats how it works as of today! Our docs go into a bit more detail here.

But this space has been moving so fast that usually how it worked last week issn’t how it works this week.

You could easily imagine us leveraging fine tuned world models models on top of prompting in the near future.

Another thing to add is that we use a bunch of different models for our Copilot implementation…some popular off the shelf ones as well as some that we trained ourselves.

why do sometimes people say things like "and it can take half a day to get someone up to speed with these tools if they haven't used them"

half a day is like almost no time at all

half a day is just few hours, how is this a long time .. how is this any time at all

the previous line make more sense to me "It's taken me years to settle into this system" , now this is more like it

I think humans will always create their own goals, drama, and social structure.

I look at Burning Man for an inspirational example of what a post-capitalist economy could look like; a bunch of people bringing cool art together, not for any monetary gain, but simply because it’s cool to watch people enjoying something you built.

Now, if AI gets better at doing even that (rather than just freeing us from toil by producing radical material abundance) then things could get fraught.

For me the most scary end state (that still involves humans in control and existing) is mainlining / wireheading on generated VR content that is in a feedback loop with brain scanners to maximize hedonic enjoyment. Plausibly this could displace our more-human desires and drives.

But I think there is a big gap between “automation frees us from toil” and “automated maximization of uniquely human art”.
good to see code llama supported through Continue already.

I don't think defamation is the issue. The idea behind defamation is that it's harmful to somebody if people believe bad things about them. People still feel harmed by these images even if absolutely nobody believes that they're real.
I'm not shrugging at it, I'm saying it's within the range of typical offers, e.g. that someone will offer 20k more to get it done.
If you want to just buy a thing that exists, you could look for one of the "high end" networked audio interfaces out there with on-board DSP mixing + network control, e.g. MOTU AVB interfaces support that (e.g. MOTU 16A + some TOSlink to analog stereo out for the 17th/18th channel would be completely sufficient for your project). You would only have to develop the automation to remote control the volumes / routing and integrate it into your home automation, or if you want to get fancy, you could connect that to a PC and do literally anything you could imagine. Keep in mind that this will cost quite some money and I have no idea how much you want to spend on this project, but it will also give you high quality and low latency audio.

If you want to build it yourself and if you want to keep it cheap and simple: integrating an ADC or DAC on a custom board isn't that hard, at least if you don't need "perfect" "audiophile" audio quality; usually the datasheets of the ADC / DAC chips already tell you exactly how you're supposed to use them + external components you need and so on. In your case, you'll probably want to use a cheap FPGA for mixing (think of Spartan-6 or newer), since that can easily handle dozens of channels, unlike cheap MCUs which usually don't support the number of channels you'd need. With MCUs the limit isn't necessarily how much you could mix in software, but how many ADC/DAC channels you can physically attach to the chip. For zigbee (or whatever network protocol you prefer) you can find dozens of small chips which can interact with that. Since it sounds like your system is wired anyway, you could also think about Ethernet for the network. When you start playing around with this, I'd recommend building a simple and minimal prototype first with e.g. a stereo in/out + network, to keep the manufacturing costs low in case you mess up the design, and once this works as intended, build the "full" 14x18ch module. Don't forget to add some simple debug port like e.g. RS232, it's cheap to add and it makes your life during development much easier.

I'm guilty of commenting on these, and I used to disagree about eliminating more of these - with my thought being that politics is interesting to "hackers" because it is interesting to people and "hackers" are people - but with the wisdom of years, I'm inclined to agree that the discussion on these submissions nearly universally sheds more heat than light.

I haven't used the Japanese calendar but I've spent the last year or so keeping up with what the current solar term is in the Chinese calendar[0]. I highly recommend giving it a try some time; if you don't work outside it's easy to forget about the seasons in general let alone the many variations that can occur within them. I've found solar terms hit a nice sweet spot where they're large enough periods to not be overwhelming or hyper local, but still capturing the rhythms of life.

Sorry about that. This should be fixed now.
I certainly don't think solving problems is really helpful any more. It's become an industrialized enterprise towards mindless economic growth. We need to focus less on solving complex technical problems to make resource-use more efficient and focus more on sustainability, which certainly does not require AI.
I’m familiar with it from my many years using it in game engines (and implementing it in them). My problem is it’s fluid by nature. The concern of validation and interface semantics are dependent on the implementation, rather than as an engine driving the process. I could expose some functions and write a bunch of docs on which ones to call first, or I could switch to a more OO approach. I chose the latter.

If I want to script behavior, Lua is great. Python as well. But I’m not scripting behavior - I’m providing an engine.
This does seem like a good distinction.
It looks like SpaceX HR fucked up something that's should be pretty obvious to HR departments. They've already corrected it and will likely be fined for the mistake. Nothing nefarious here either way, not intentionally as far as I can tell.

I don't know how many people we're talking about. In absolute terms I'm sure it's not a huge number. The filing lists a few anecdotal cases.

Part of the complaint is also that they publicly stated that you need citizenship or a green card many times over the years, so there were probably people improperly deterred from applying at all.
I've been working remotely for 15 years. The pandemic didn't really change anything for me as my company is in another state (and now, another country).

While I wouldn't have it any other way, I do think collaboration is pretty easy. I have multiple meetings a day with multiple teams and we have always been able to get projects completed.

There are so many collaboration tools out there and with modern, fast, Internet speeds, it's like you're in the same room as the other person.

Some issues I have noticed: Managers need to know how to manage remotely. When a manager can't manage remotely, it shows, and it's bad. A bad manager will just blame the employee (which happened to me).

Something else I noticed is that I am just not that close to my co-workers. While I have a social life outside of work. Many people use work as a social outlet and it can be very lonely working remotely.

I think this is all bullshit. It most likely has to do with rental contracts the company signed and not wanting it to go to waste.
I worked out that I had been flagged. I was not saying that dang replying was the mechanism, you are just (intentionally?) misinterpreting what I am saying. That dang replies to you is an indicator that he has flagged you.

Not going to keep replying, as I suspect that a conversation between two people flagged in this manner is one of the likeliest to turn flame-y :)
Alright we’re in a cycle of misunderstanding each other, and rabbit holing on something that is rather tangential to my original point. I acknowledge I should not have used the word “never”. I meant rarely, and I meant for “most” games, not literally never, and not all games.

When you said “No. Please don't spread this nonsense rumor. It hasn't ever been true and still isn't.”, combined with the downvote, I assumed you were referring and objecting to everything I said including diminishing returns (even though I see you acknowledging it next paragraph.)

We are mostly agreeing violently, I acknowledge that there’s no known hard fps threshold above which nobody can see something. I acknowledge that there are benefits above 60fps, even if they grow smaller.

But it’s still true that the primary reason games are going to 500fps is for the latency benefits, not for the smoothness or high flicker rate. A frame rate that high isn’t generally perceptible, while the latency of today’s games - a latency of multiple frames - is actually well inside the known measurable threshold of response times. The problem isn’t generally the need for more frames per second, the big problem is the time between input and the visible change on screen.

The other topic that would be nicer to discuss is the quality trade offs. High frame rate takes away from other options.

Tin-foil hat time, but with the current Biden Administration, you also have to consider the possibility that it's a shot across the bow to ensure Twitter censors "misinformation" going into the US elections.

If this does not work, perhaps the IRS next up to bat?

And it's a very thin tin-foil hat I'm wearing given that the Biden Administration was literally telling the tech companies who to censor, up until the courts ruled they could not do that: https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/news/2023/07/04/judge-bl...
So what you're saying is:

HTTPS is secure -> a bug made 2.6% of all certificates less secure -> that's why we shouldn't use HTTPS?

I'm quite confused how that holds logically. You can either argue HTTPS is fundamentally not secure or is irrelevant; or regret that there was a bug but support using HTTPS

So to evade hyperinflation one uses an asset which is more volatile, and in the case of BTC, is deflationary by nature. Which as in _investment_ is fine, but as a means of payment not, as the whole essence of a _sensible_ amount (2-3%) of inflation is a driver for economic growth. The problem with this statement is that using one evil to escape the other which doesn't make sense.

Countries with a weak rule of law shouldn't (monetary wise) not be made weaker by using a volatile and highly (let's not deny it..) manipulative asset.

> We cannot debate each other well because everyone tends to be very friendly when you join a Zoom call.

I don't understand this at all. Why does being very friendly preclude good debate? The two things don't seem mutually exclusive to me. The opposite, in fact. The most productive debates are ones where people are being friendly when they're engaging in them. When people aren't friendly (or at least civil), proper debate becomes impossible.
Why would there not be gravitational time dilation in a denser early universe as the article describes?

For programming, books like "Clean Code" by Robert C. Martin and online courses like Codecademy's interactive lessons have been game-changers. Working on open-source projects and collaborating on platforms like GitHub has also turbocharged my learning.

This is pretty standard stuff. Next they'll pay a fine based on the outcome of the DOJs filing here, because they were not in compliance previously.

If we’re going to be pedantic, let me point out that for a pwa a connection to the server is only required for initial install and successive data synchronization, so the operation of the web app I described is indeed literally serverless outside of those edge cases.
