You had a chance to prove my assumption wrong by writing this same exact comment without all the snark.

At the end of the day if you're just unmoved by the implications that an ML model went from a bag of tokens to a structured, explained chain of thought, and a final response on an unknown task with rewards defined in natural english (!) and intentional ambiguity most humans wouldn't even try to confront... there's not much conversation to be had.

I think the rest of us (including your colleagues) will continue to build on these models, and like most advancements there'll be a vocal crowd insisting the car isn't useful because it can't be fed with grass.

You didn't have to say that after complaining ChatGPT's web interface didn't give both us the same reply (most people in ML understand how temperature relates to LLM output)

By the way, if making your own personal music recommender seems like "magical thinking", maybe you're a little lost on which parts of Spotify's recommender systems are complex due to scale: if Spotify only needed to make song selection work for one person at a time, they'd have a lot more leeway in architecture.

In fact, when the problem was flipped and they were scaling humans attaching their recommendations to songs, they built on OpenAI: https://newsroom.spotify.com/2023-02-22/spotify-debuts-a-new...

Here’s a key difference: being a lousy husband (I include sidelining his wife for sexist reasons) tarnished his reputation but it doesn’t directly undercut the civil rights movement’s primary success. It does call into question the movement calling for equal rights on race but being marginal on gender, and quite a lot has been written about that.

In contrast, most of the damage Musk has done to his reputation has been undercutting the things he’s supposedly good at by demonstrating that he isn’t. His sexual harassment or family feuds are salacious but they didn’t spoil his companies’ reputation the way things like Tesla autopilot or basically everything at Twitter had done.

I wasn't expecting a deep and thorough comparison just from the headline... but the feature list and comparison text here is worse than I thought it would be, bordering on useless.

"Built in" means nothing because the value prop of node compared to the other two is the ecosystem and maturity. Do you care if your linting tool is built in if it's buggy and regularly releases breaking changes? "Secure by default" in particular means nothing by itself here either.

Bun specifically promises better compatibility with existing npm modules then Deno so the comparison here is much different than the chart would lead you to believe.

Notion and others have APIs that can drive whatever you want. But I agree with the gist - it's not the HyperCard reimplemented, but it is HyperCard evolved to today's common needs.
In terms of making something that could beat a turing test the 65B/70B llama1/2 already are better than openai's currently offered models like gpt3.5-turbo or even the currently available output from gpt3.5 text-davinci-003. They've been so heavily "aligned" that they're insufferable and "As a large language model," everything even given an extensive pre-prompt in text completion mode. It wasn't always this way. Back in March text-davinci-003 or even better, code-davinci-002 were shocking capable and human like in their output. If openai released with the models they have today back at original release I'm not sure there'd be any hype.

The 65B/70B llama1/2 are not nearly as smart but their raw output can actually pass for a human. Hopefully Facebook has seen all the talk about training small models far beyond the previously assumed token limits (~20*num parameters training tokens) and will adjust the cosine learning rate back to llama 1 style for llama 3 7B's training run.
You need to check whatever half-arsed framework "that will be universal and encompass everything" Microsoft is promoting this specific month, and then violently ignore it and use proven things like wxWidgets or WinForms instead.

The problem with the unhinged is that they're also incompetent, generally. Abe was only susceptible to an unhinged assassin because its Japan and violence/guns are so rare, security is/was so lax. Getting close to Abe, even when he as the PM, was incredibly easy. Hopefully the lesson has been learned there, as it already has been in most other countries.

I'm sure the secret services have come up with creative things. The Russians sometimes use poison when abroad, but even that is usually discovered now due to sophisticated hospitals.

You are correct that I am making assumptions, I’m assuming this group wants to control the behaviors of people outside of their religious group which may not be the case.

I don’t want to control their discussion, it’s fine to discuss things and share different views. I want to understand why a group of people would welcome a panopticon because it would make people easier to control.

Well, I for one would rather gang around those "suspicious" people, so I see it as selecting for like minded individuals. If someone views me with suspicion for not having a Facebook or whatever I'm perfectly happy saying goodbye. And it works for me, I have a like minded partner that I let IRL in the modern age, she saw it as a plus and that's the kind of person I'm going for.
Meta's model isn't open source (and neither is "Open"AI's, hilariously). It's free to use for most purposes but we don't know what data or algorithms they used to train it. Regardless, I'm excited for these companies to eat each other with the result being free software. It's the very least they can do given all the data that had to be stolen to build these.
Of course, at that zoomed out view it becomes "houses are more expensive where people want to live" which is kind of tautological.

The conclusion goes beyond that. The argument is that local areas may see price inflation, but over time they trend towards the mean (you can't have the average be inflation otherwise).

So basically people may enjoy an increase worth of their property, but it's not a long term trend but rather something that happens in distinct periods, usually followed by a price drop or stagnation that pulls the average back towards the mean.
These researchers obviously have computer equipment on board. Once sequenced they can align and figure out where it sits in the tree of life.

> 3. Is there any way to prove an extension in the store was built from source in GitHub? I am imagining some kind of third-party escrow service managing the Firefox store account and building from specific public git repository.

This is (in theory) part of Mozilla's review process, and depending on how the extension is submitted they can (I've heard) be fairly strict about it. But it's not user-facing at all and I don't know how universally they review source code.

It really needs to be fixed from Mozilla's end though; I don't see much reason to get a 3rd-party involved instead of to lobby Mozilla to add some kind of process on its own that's more prominent. A 3rd-party verification service would be possible (you'd just download the extension from Mozilla's servers and extract it, re-run the build process and check to see if the artifacts matched), and in theory you could even have a completely separate extension store from Mozilla's -- as long as the extensions are signed you can host them anywhere, and there's nothing preventing you from getting other extensions built from source signed. You could have a pseudo-F-Droid addon store that distributed Mozilla-signed extensions you've pulled from Git and built yourself.

But... I mean, I just feel like it's something we should lobby Mozilla to do, they're in the best position to do it and in the best position to have the most impact if they do.
Really - my kids have refurbed SEs - it was the form-factor they wanted.
That's funny! You can not opt-out of Google tracking, they just make it look like you can. There is a reason Google runs the Google Play Store, fonts.google.com, maps.google.com and gmail.com for instance. It's not because they are nice, it's because they make oodles more money hosting that stuff free and yanking data from you for their actual money making business.
It was pretty clear what Bun’s advantages vs Node are, but less so vs Deno. This helps clarify it. It’s mainly that Bun has a built-in package manager* and minifier and Deno doesn’t. And Deno has a few extras Bun doesn’t. I imagine those will equalize somewhat with future releases.

This is a helpful overview, though I would also like to see a deep dive on some categories, like security (Deno permissions vs Bun trustedDependencies).

* Or maybe Deno has one too: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37475462
Excellent explanation! However, I would disagree both that there isn't an easy fix and that each of the decisions are sensible.

If the syntax to temporarily set variables was different, say using : instead of =, or requiring some delimiter between assignments and operations, or maybe enclosing the statement in braces (something like: {foo=bar; echo $foo}...) to delimit temporary assignments would have been reasonable alternatives, perhaps even more readable than this. Or having the sntax disallow `foo=`, requiring, say, `foo=null` or `foo=''`, which are both more explicit, or even `unset foo`. These are more sensible individual choices, and that's partly because they're more explicit and partly because they avoid a (now) common error. I'd argue good language design needs to think slightly bigger picture than "individually not catastrophic" choices. Sh is littered with a myriad of small bad choices, which add up to a language that's hard to code or script without bugs. Nowadays with shellcheck it's easier, but it shouldn't be necessary. The consensus is: it's a scripting language, it shouldn't be used for complex stuff. But if it was a slightly better scripting language, it _could_ be used more safely for larger or more complex scripts.

The truth is that it's an ancient language, its (bad) syntax is set in stone, and there's nothing we can do about it except slowly move to alternatives. Sad that there's nothing established to take its place (Perl is read-only, python is not good enough as unix glue, everything else is too obscure).

I have always considered time like this billable hours. In a contracting role it may be something you can add to the invoice, it probably depends on the contract. In a salaried position it means coming in later to work, leaving earlier or otherwise finding extra time to properly recuperate. You may want to have conversations with appropriate peers and/or leaders on your team to establish the best approach.
You're correct, and I don't see any good way to avoid this that doesn't involve enumerating the actual language (at least when the language is finite).

> A warm-air dryer is relatively ineffective when laundry is dripping wet, but is quite good at removing final traces of moisture.

I thought that’s what the centrifugal action was for (even with no heat involved); basically emulating gravity to get the clothes to “drip” outward into the perforations. I imagine it achieves greater than 1g making it actually more effective than traditional drip drying?
Many of the colocation facilities within 151 Front Street West in Toronto make use of the Enwave's deep lake chilled water intake from Lake Ontario for cooling, saving a lot of energy. It claims to be one of the largest district energy systems of its kind, and the water goes on to other uses, which is much better than an evaporative system.
Scientology started in 1950's. So lets limit ourselves to things that happened after that.

So answer your own question: "How many wars have been fought in its name? How many nations conquered and people enslaved?" for other religions? (People organizing along existing religions groupings during a war doesn't count.)

It's certainly not many: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_war#Modern_period Seems like: Sudan, Yugoslav, Lebanon is debatable. Could maybe add ISIL.

On the other hand Scientologists have enslaved 5,000 to 10,000 today, right now.

>Elons bad behavior is his legacy now.

Yea, that won't age well 10-20 years from now, look at Steve Jobs' legacy. He was a huge dick at times, but people still buy Apple stuff like crazy. Who remembers the names of his critics? I sure don't.

Also, what adult uses terms like "superhero," and "supervillain" to describe a real person in professional journalistic writing? Too many movies. They should take their job more seriously. It's as if they can't think outside binary good/evil like a toddler. There's some criticism from me. They can take it as seriously as I take their's.

It depends on your operators. For these, no.

Equivalence of DFA or NFA is PSPACE complete by savitch's theorem, regardless of time bound. As such, most types of regex equivalence is pspace-complete.

Has a detailed breakdown of operators vs complexity.

In particular, the paper cited in the expspace page is talking about allowing a squaring operator.

It is EXPSPACE complete if you allow squaring, but not if you use repetition.

IE it is expspace complete if you allow e^2, but not if you only allow ee.
