Your points about the opt-in nature of the regulation are correct. I was mistaken and made an update in my original post.

Again, if customers really were demanding this, why haven't these greedy corporations provided the service already?

I’m surprised to hear there aren’t many good books on the war given how significant it was in shaping Europe. That was impressed upon me in high school European history.
You are right in that the loading is right now on huggingface’s dataset. The feedback about it being opaque has merit, and we are working on giving users more control and visibility into the dataset loading. To your point, adding instructions about how one can load their own dataset and do fine-tuning can assist researchers better in leveraging these models. That being said, the README under each model folder has all the info one needs to get started.

More than happy to have you contribute to the repo. There’s a lot of exciting work to be done.
A backup solution makes it into an even more complex sync configuration:

Multi-way synchronisation like that is full of landmines. I read a great article once about how a similar many-way, multi-master sync needs to be implemented. The context was LDAP directory synchronisation, but the concepts are similar.

> I don't see why I should adopt someone else's values.

Sticking to your values is all well and good but being willfully resistant to introspection is the problem. Assuming your values are always good and never without bias is lying to yourself. Nobody is perfect.

My parents tell me VERY convincing stories about how I had a great childhood and they did the best they could. They fucked me up in ways they could have never imagined and at times they just CAN'T understand why what they taught me isn't helpful or useful.

Pass on values to your kids but make sure you're not giving them blind spots too. This requires honesty and self evaluation most people are unwilling to engage in.
omg you may be the most helpful answer i ever got on hn.

will check this out this week thank you!
Great observation. We are working on making this part very explicit. The goal was to let researchers get up to speed with the codebase to begin with, and then they would understand what needs to change to make these models work on custom datasets.

That being said, we are working on adding instructions to specify dataset and also the prompt that users want to use.
String theory is complex.

Any argument about US constitution that isn't just a literal reading of the text is complicated.

Feedback taken. We are working on making it more explicit for users to mention the task and dataset they want to train models on. Additionally, we will introduce a flag to let people mention the prompt they want to use for finetuning these models.
That looks plausible to me.
Looked at the project. Great initiative.
I do see what the parent poster meant. Here in Canada, about 1 in 4 households have a firearm. It's over 10% even in large cities like Toronto. Statistically speaking, it seems likely several households in my condominium have firearms. Not quite at American ownership rates, but firearm ownership is far from scarce in Canada. You wouldn't get impression though; most owners are very discreet about it. That same sort of vibe seems to exist in parts of the USA, too.

> One more thing: we say we are unconscious under anesthesia or when we are asleep. Why? Because we don't don't have any memory of what it was like to be in these states.

Most people do have a memory of what it was like to be dreaming, at least some of the time. And some people have vivid, detailed recall of dream narratives -- I dated one for four years. Even in her summarizing mode she could go on for ten minutes about one dream.

Going back to your main theme -- there are people who know they experience pain, and will grant that other humans experience pain. But because fish are so different from humans, their aversive behaviors when snagged on a hook, or gasping as they suffocate out of the water are attributed to reflexive action and is absent pain. Sure, I can't know what their experience is like, but if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, etc, it is likely a duck. The same applies to consciousness of advanced artificial neural networks.
I haven't thought through the externality argument very much. If I do I will come back and respond. I'm sure there are people more thoughtful than me who have said something about it.

Something to keep in mind though, government regulation itself is an externality.

It's still running on-prem if the execution happens on compute hardware that you control. If importing code from somewhere else disqualified something from being on-prem, then no application would ever be on-prem - when's the last time a meaningful application had no dependencies!?

The real game changer is a helmet with a full face visor. Also I am warmer on a scooter than a bike due to the fact that I'm not moving my legs "pumping" air in and out of my clothes.

I found that on an electric scooter with a full helmet I was totally warm at high speed into icy wind coming off the sea. Warmer than say just standing outside for a few minutes with a hat and scarf but my face not covered.
That's true. Consumers rely on things like brand name, word of mouth, customer reviews, etc.

Another label like this will likely do nothing.
Apologies for the janky formatting as I'm on mobile and copying from a tmux session but: yes, it seems that it does.

Worked in warehouses for trucking as a kid. Sometimes I miss it... other times I remember that the warehouses were never climate controlled, the vans never had functional AC either, and my teenage sleep habits combined with that early commute were not a safe combination. There's a fun side, but imo its more of the "glad I got through it" than a "i want more of it." Maybe that's just me.

I despise almost every single web framework written in the last decade. They always feel like byzantine monoliths of complexity built from tons of layers over existing libraries. They invent tons of concepts, always require patching, and have an army of sycophants who believe building a web framework is basically rocket science and only a select few are ever capable of such a feat.

SvelteKit is the first piece of web tech that I actually enjoy using. It’s the rare piece of tech that knows its lane, stays in it, and excels at it. It is marked by fewer features that work well together vs lots of features that sort of work well together.

You can read the docs in an hour or two and then start to get an understanding of what it’s doing.

Basically, it feels like it was made by someone who really understands the medium, thought deeply about how to distill that, and iterated to improve on it. (I get same vibes from Vue, but don’t have much experience there)

It's got some quine potentials
"According to the law of supply and demand this would result in wages rising rapidly and without bound"

No it doesn't. Having to poach employees to increase your labor pool doesn't mean that you are willing to raise wages without and bound. A food crisis is where an inelastic demand meets a hard supply limit, so prices can go up dramatically, but they don't go up infinitely, not even in a famine.

Supply and demand does not allow for unbounded rises in prices because demand is never infinite. Rather, prices go up to the highest amount demand will allow for. For things like food for which demand is inelastic, prices can go up pretty high and people will eat into their savings if they have to, but labor will more likely be limited by the marginal productivity of individual workers.
I signed into Instagram because one of the news sites referenced it. A few months later I signed on again to set up a business account, only to be informed I was "violating the Community Guidelines" and asking to send a text (so I gave a number intended for the business - only for the text to ask me to bend over, kiss the nether parts, and, oh yes, write a number on a piece of paper and take a selfie for them.

> Reducing human suffering is a noble goal and infertile couples could benefit from this research.

The research isn't about reducing human suffering. No research is. All research is about attaining new knowledge.

> I would rather have western world make giant leaps in this field and also set the direction of ethics here rather than just banning it and leaving it up to Russia and China to conduct this sort of research in their secret facilities.

Why? Given the history of the western world in biological, chemical and nuclear genocides, why is it better that the west make sets the directin of ethics than russia or china. The west has proven it hasn't a ethical bone in our body.

Research should happen because humans want to learn and advance. The west ain't saints. The russians and chinese certainly aren't monsters, especially compared ot the west.
I find it somewhat amusing that companies like Microsoft and Google that have pivoted a large portion of their business model to collecting, keylogging, recording, scanning, exfiltrating, telemetrizing, collating, inferring, and analyzing every last iota of data they can about as many people as possible under the guise of improving their products or personalizing ads...

Oh I don't disagree, lowering the cost to field a system out of your micro-architecture increases the likely hood a design engineer will design it into their own design. This effect singlehandedly sustained the x86 product line until it didn't.
Thank you to share. This is a valuable post.

Do you think people who own guns who live in non-rural areas do so for (a) personal protection, (b) hunting, or (c) sport shooting? I'm not a hunter myself, but (b) and (c) seem pretty reasonable anywhere that you live. However, I never understand the (a) crowd.

For the record, Finland also has very high gun ownership.

This is a warmed over version of labor theory of value which is at its core wrong. Value is entirely subjective and contextual, and utility is not a function of labor inputs.

Moreover high wages simply encourage innovation in labor saving devices and techniques. Tight labor markets aren’t the capitalists enemy. It’s no different than other input costs in some sense.
Couldn't agree more.

It's very easy to throw shade at other providers, then not provide those assurances in your own service.

It seems like a weak attempt to throw shade at other providers without substantiated claims. Take Quad9 for instance, they have plenty of information in their transparency report regarding their service, over and above what Wikimedia has provided.
What's even more alarming is that this increases in all-cause deaths were present in the vaccine clinical study data. The vaccine group had fewer covid deaths but had significantly more overall deaths that the non vaccine control group.
Ahead on virtually any measure of material or social success, and they further consolidate their advantages by functioning multi-generationally, which means that no, they don't die quite like everybody else.

See for example: the Bush dynasty vs the typical "successful" American family. Do you know anyone benefiting from their great-grandfather's Nazi money, plus their grandfather's CIA/oil cartel black ops + presidency + Carlyle group influence trading, plus their father's presidency (and yet-to-be-proven criminal fuckery)? I don't.
As someone who has been doing robotics professionally for fifteen years.... robots are also mostly code. There is a certain tangibility to it, but unless you're just deploying an off-the-shelf stack like Ardupilot, you're going to end up spending 95% of your project time on it writing code and tweaking configuration files.

If you want a tactile hobby, actually build something— make some shelves for your basement or garage, put up a bike shed, make a deck, redo your kitchen floor, weld together a teardrop camper, dig up a tree stump, whatever.

Or if it can be physical without needing to be back-breaking, do partner dancing or an endurance sport like distance swimming or road cycling.
>I have not heard any arguments in favor of this system that hold water in my entire life

One defense is that the old AT&T system was really expensive and slowed progress. Deregulation was a big win for consumers.

I agree that well regulated monopoly ISPs could deliver better service. But I'm deeply skeptical that, in practice, we'd manage to actually regulate the ISPs properly.

Our regulated power companies have shitty, underfunded grids that create massive forest fires.

I would half expect really cheap nationwide DSL.
I don’t think you fully understand the scope of this project. Your thinking and arguments are limited by your understanding of what all is possible with these models.

This repository argues that LLMs can be used for more applications beyond just chat, and QnA. Based on our experimental findings (which you would have found if you had the time to go through the README under any model folder), you can see LLMs do classification tasks really well under low data situations. For 99% of startup who don’t have the luxury of holding thousands of annotated samples like FAANG, LLMs provide a good alternative to get started with few annotated samples. At the end of the day, these models are based on attention transformer architecture.

I would be curious to see some quantitative backing of your statements and not just links to huggingface’s website & conjectures.

And btw, the entire ecosystem is trying to answer a lot of these questions because we are still early to predict anything. And here you are claiming they are absolutely non-sensical for 99% of companies.

Btw did you know that a lot of companies cannot use third-party APIs because of sensitive customer data? For them, having self-hosted models is a good alternative to have. And with the likes of Llama2 and Falcon closing the performance gap, the idea of self-hosted models for tasks beyond chat does not seem far-fetched.
My favorite shake restraint has a sign on the door that says, “due to labor shortages, this location is closed until further notice.”

IMHO, good and relevant content beats poor phrasing (which again IMHO I didn't witness in the original post), especially since English is not the first language for many people on this board.

I have no idea how you would get a dam to collapse with only a laptop and a network connection. As for the power plant, the operators would have to be blind and deaf to let a plant get destroyed.

The real threat is a cascading power grid failure due to undersupply, e.g. coordinated forced plant shutdowns. A few days without electricity at a large scale means reduced availability of medical and emergency services, no running water, failing refrigeration, no stoves/ovens for cooking for most of the population, no working gas pumps, no electronic payment, no banking (no way to get cash) etc.
