Windows API and the entirety of its client code aren't a good source of standard C programming. On the source level you have additional types and qualifiers/annotations that only MSVC understands.

LLM copilot doesn't really understand the context of the project, it just goes for similar text.

So if you train on big projects you're picking up their patterns only. When a copilot user asks for a string concatenation 'tip' you want LLM to output a general answer, not something tied to a specific project. Big project is likely to use abstraction over strings, where base library usage is shrunk down to few lines of code as opposed to abstraction. In this case you'd want LLM to source a few "simpler" projects that use base library strings abundantly, so it can have decent amount of text for the most likely correct match over user's input.

I do believe Microsoft has all the code available for good training, it's not only about Azure, Windows and Office, there is tons more and it's open source already.

The problem is that the language is in part pitched this way, as a "best of both worlds" language where you can get "C-like" performance while still living in a dynamic world, at least in part. But it's not true.

It's certainly faster than Python, and a more elegant language. So I'd be in a much happier world if people were using it for some of the places where they're using Python. But its slow startup time makes it unsuitable for many scripting type tasks. And its module system and deployment thereof is... complicated.
There's probably a mathematically rigorous version of the proverb along the lines of "low-confidence observations from a limited number of data points are not always sufficient to update other actors with priors different from yours sufficiently far towards your position for the optimal status-seeking strategy to be for you to give an expression of high confidence", but it wouldn't roll off the tongue quite so well.
Not defining "BERT" is a little weird, especially since something like MLM is explained. A good rule for writing, which I learned from The Economist, is to explain what something is the first time you mention it. It does lead to some funny explanations sometimes. One of my favorites, again from The Economist, is "HSBC, a bank". It sort of let them know that even if they see themselves as being big and important, they are "just a bank".
Thank you for this. It all makes a lot more sense now.

Less strain on the grid would be less economic reasons to develop the grid and expand energy production capacity.

I have a decently common first name and last name and was eventually able to snag the domain of my name (firstnameLastname.ca) and switched over most of various online accounts to use it.

I'm not a big Twitter user, and when I went to log in Twitter for the first time in probably a year or two, I forgot that it was still using my gmail account. I couldn't remember my password, so I did a password reset, received the email, and reset my password.

After looking around a bit, I realized this was not my account. It turned out the previous owner of firstnameLastname.ca also used firstname@firstnameLastname.ca

I ended up making a twitter post basically saying "Hello, I think I accidentally stole your account. If this used to be your account, email me.". A few weeks later I got an email from a fellow with the same name as me, who used to live in Canada but had moved back to England. I was able to change the email on the account and give him back access.
It's tricky because the pronunciation in English and Scandinavian languages (no idea about Polish) would be pretty much the same between OK/ok and okay/okei/okej (Swedish also uses okej; Norwegian okei) unless you spell out the "OK" which you sometimes do, sometimes don't in Norwegian at least (it's hard to tell because people might spell it out using English pronunciation), but my feeling is that especially if you intend the letters "O.K.", whether or not you spell it out, it tends to have a more positive, confirmatory sense, while if you use the word "okei" in Norwegian, you have more room to alter the pronunciation to imply sarcasm or doubt, e.g. stretching the syllables.

I wonder if that may play in with other languages too. I think I'd be inclined to type out "okay" if I wanted a better shot at conveying that same thing in English in writing, perhaps with some ellipses. Eg. "Okay... But .." rather than "OK... But" or "OK, but". Maybe just because the short, abrupt "OK" feels more like it must mean certainty. This may very well be entirely personal, though, and I have no idea if others would notice the distinction.

Don't underestimate the art market.

I had a CDL-A a long time ago, that was the rule then. Big shops made sure you stuck to it (or so they said) but I also did here that they will indirectly force drivers to drive a lot more than that. When you hear about truckers making six figures, that isn't from 8hr days for sure. They even gave you a tip during training: if you open your truck's door, you're losing money. What happens when they force you is you don't get the trips you want or that are lucrative if you have a reputation of doing bare minimum.
> such identical designators should be geographically widely spaced

Yes, though I wouldn't normally regard "4,000nm" (mentioned in the article) as widely spaced in geographical terms. Unless they meant nautical miles (which should be abbreviated as M, NM, Nm or nmi according to en.wiktionary.org) rather than nanometres.

OK, perhaps that comment wasn't really worth making ...

On the other hand, perhaps next year we'll read about some other system (aviation or silicon design) collapsing because the software mixed up nanometres and nautical miles.
>I can't even use my large MSI 1440p monitor with this computer because Linux (also perhaps because of the actual gfx card too, to be fair)

This part makes no sense. Linux works with any monitor; monitors connect via DP/HDMI and don't need device drivers. I have two 1440p monitors on my system. If you're having a problem here, it's undoubtedly the graphics card, and Linux has long had issues with drivers there (mainly Nvidia), but even here most Nvidia users say it works fine for them.

The original claim was that Topics API doesn't use the whole browser history, and that sites inly get topics for that site.

Whereas the description clearly states that topics are derived from the entire browsing history, and they will get topics derived from the test of the history because while coarse, there are still a bunch of them.

A site with a narrow site like a site on fresh-water aquatic plants will probably only get a handful of topics. What will Amazon get? Or Google for that matter? Or a news site? Given that they are likely to "observe" every single topic?

Couple of funny ones in Finnish:

"Kuusi palaa" has at least six different meanings: 1) your moon is burning, 2) pruce tree is burning, 3) number six is burning, 4) a part of something is burning, 5) pruce tree returns, and 6) your moon returns.

"Kokoa kokoon koko kokko!"
"Koko kokko kokoonko?"
"Koko kokko kokoon!"

Which translates to a conversation between two parties on the building of a bonfire.
I also have ethical standards for employers. I do feel like it has limited my career in some ways and that I did not accumulate as much wealth as I could have had if I had different standards. I do have the peace of mind that I can tell myself that I tried to make things better, of course there is more I could have done but I have accepted that there are limits to what to expect of yourself and others.

I did struggle finding work that would actively make the world better, and have limited my ambitions in that regards. I now settle for not actively making things worse.

I now work on software for accountants to automate and streamline workflows for them and their customers so everybody can spend less time on doing accounting and filing their taxes and just do whatever they are trying to do.

One benefit is that avoiding exploitative businesses also seems to have a good correlation of avoiding toxic work environments.

I am still often disappointed that many people seem to totally absolve any responsibility by deferring ethical decision making to whatever organization they are involved in. It's a chilling realization after interacting with someone to realize that their ethical compass just does not seem there, and they are completely unaware or OK with that.

I remember so many history classes in school where we would learn about how average people became involved in horrible things, and the few people that would stand up against it and face hardships because of it. Maybe the lesson was not that you should strive to be one of those people that stands up for what is right, but that it just the way it is that most people don't would rather keep their heads down.
> it's a bit difficult to wrap my mind around how Arrow will help in distributed systems

Comparing with the role of Protobuf is perhaps easiest, there's a good FAQ entry [0] which concludes: "Arrow and Protobuf complement each other well. For example, Arrow Flight uses gRPC and Protobuf to serialize its commands, while data is serialized using the binary Arrow IPC protocol".

This will be increasingly significant due to the hardware trends in network & memory (and ultimately storage too) compared with CPUs. I posted about that in a comment a few days ago [1], but it's worth sharing again:

> here’s a chart comparing the throughputs of typical memory, I/O and networking technologies used in servers in 2020 against those technologies in 2023

> Everything got faster, but the relative ratios also completely flipped

> memory located remotely across a network link can now be accessed with no penalty in throughput

The graphs demonstrate it very clearly: https://blog.enfabrica.net/the-next-step-in-high-performance...

> would be great to read a bit more about some optimizations that would help improving Postgres leaving out pure analytical use cases

>I don't see a ton of data that points towards us (vector DB ppl) building >towards traditional TREC/BEIR #s.

This is highly accurate, most vector database companies don't talk about the shortcomings of vector representations for search.

>TLDR: - I think pure vector search platforms should be evaluated differently than >traditional keyword search platforms - I think vector search is a tool -- simply >one of many -- that search engineers should use to make their search engine >results more relevant.

This is a contradiction. One one hand you say that you want to improve relevance, on the other hand you say that vector search as a tool cannot be evaluated as other models (tools).

We have plenty of open information retrieval datasets (both full retrieval and ranking) where you can compare different methods or tools and assess the relevance impact.

This is a take from someone who’s clearly not a domain expert. The purpose of finger printing is to identify individual users - which is pointless if you’re able to use third party cookies, unless you want to do cross-device tracking or get around as blockers. If third parties cookies are not a targetable Id in the bid stream (in a post cookie world), there is nothing to match a fingerprint to, so fingerprinting is useless. You can talk about ID5 and IDLs in this same discussion, but they are explicitly opt-in.

Additionally fingerprinting is not a tactic that advertisers want to use - anyone spending real money bets their vendors and wants to stay away from sketchy bs vendors who do that. Google doesn’t want it, TTD doesn’t want it, xandr doesn’t, cococola doesn’t, Nike doesn’t, etc. We all want a technology that is truly privacy focused for users, but still enables functionality that is critical to advertising like brand safety, frequency caps, and some semblance of targeting (even via context). That doesn’t even get into retargeting/dynamic retargeting.
This is an ok analogy if producing more gasoline is something good for us. Which it is not. Conversely extending power generation capacity, especially with means that have highly varying production rates that require ability to quickly vary load is exactly what humanity needs right now, and fast.
Is the SQLite support documented anywhere? What is it? I searched for “SQLite” in the Emacs manual and the Emacs Lisp reference and got nothing.
I recall hearing there's something of a parallel ecosystem of near-zero-allocation Java libraries, used in HFT among other things. I'm unsure why people use a GC'd language in the first place if they're going to go to those lengths to avoid it, but presumably there are good reasons (perhaps memory safety, before Rust came along)
DEI Statements Stir Debate on College Campuses
Here are several comments regarding rewriting everything in safer languages like Rust, among others. However, before such a transition can potentially take place, I believe it's more realistic to achieve another important goal: enabling robust logging capabilities, akin to the Endpoint Security Framework on MacOS or System Events on Windows, for iOS. With the implementation of such tooling, enterprises could potentially integrate mobile endpoints into their SIEM systems, making it easier to detect attacks of this nature.

I've personally utilized the mvt-ios tool to investigate iPhone backups. Within these backups, there is a SQLite file that mvt-ios scans for potentially malicious process names. (I've examined all publicly available STIX2 IOCs and having tooling that simply reports the names of processes from mobile phone to a central SIEM would be adequate for identifying these attacks.) Unfortunately, this method cannot be used in real-time across all devices. To employ it, one must first create a complete backup of the phone and then scrutinize that backup. If we had a tool similar to the Endpoint Security Framework available for mobile devices, we could activate enterprise-level security monitoring systems and potentially establish secure communications in the current era, rather than waiting for everything to be rewritten in Rust (a bit of irony).

Google does some stupid things, but Chromium is "too big to fail" at this point and it's too essential to products like Android which are also at that same point.

But hypothetically if Google stopped contributing to Chromium the project would be forked and it would live on. Frankly, Google removing themselves from Chromium would fix the one major complaint a lot of people have with it.
I don't believe that. Being a non-profit is not inherently a moral stance. Your goal is to further your own efforts. That doesn't automatically require you to attempt to 'disadvantage' others (even if that is voluntary on their part).
It's worth noting that pitch accent matters: LHHLHLLHHHHLH (L: low, H: high, for each mora). It becomes even more important if you remove one set of "niwa", because then you can have two different meanings:

"there is a chicken in the garden"

It's your claim thats is extraordinary. Humans are beholden to a single form of organisation?

I feel that you are so stuck in this mode of thinking that you struggle to see these other forms of organisation despite the fact that they surround you.

Markets dominate the world, they are not a hierarchy.

Social networks form a web, they are not a hierarchy. If you try to organise any data, you will find it cannot be fit into a hierarchy, it is either relational or a graph.

Relationships dominate the world, hierarchy is an illusion

This API wont remove or deprecate the already existing tracking methods, third party cookies can be disabled but alternative practices have been developed a good while ago (and new ones are actively being found). Advertisement networks _will_ find a way (avoiding fingerprinting is impossible, unless all browser companies decide to merge; exposing hardware to the web is the new trend for web technologies, and hardware can be extremely unique especially when combined with an IP yada yada) without depending on Google, their competitor in advertising, for their own product.
