> Did you get confused with a different comment chain?

Nope.

> my comment indicates that it's impossible to determine the 'unimproved value', because there are no records of land values during the times of pre-human habitation of the north american continent.

My point was that this definition of 'unimproved value' is a strawman. Nobody except you is claiming that this is the definition of 'unimproved value' that is used in discussions about a land value tax. In the context of LVT, 'unimproved value' pretty much means the value of a lot minus any buildings on it (in jurisdictions that have a LVT, I'm sure they have a much more specific definition of it, so the government doesn't have to spend endless time in court with nitpickers). So it definitely includes things like a bustling city around the lot, with roads, sewers and other infrastructure, shops, apartments, and whatnot. Nobody is trying to figure out the value of a plot of land in pre-human times for tax purposes.
> done something grossly incompetent like used floats for those calculations

So, in another life I worked on reporting software for a foreign branch of a US bank. You've heard of the bank. You would probably recognize the CEO's name, in fact.

We had been fucking this up for years. I fixed it. We had some customers who yelled at us because our reports were "wrong" i.e. they were double checking our work and apparently making the same mistake. They could not be reasoned with. Bear in mind, we're talking about differences of pennies, or a few dollars on very large transactions. Some of our customers insisted we were calculating the values incorrectly and demanded we "fix" it.

What do you think happened next? You have one guess.

It's the worst job market I've seen in the UK since 2008. A huge number of companies made significant redundancies and the market is saturated with extremely talented people so there's not only more competition for decent opportunities, the bar is also much higher.

As for hybrid working, that will be the norm for at least the next few years so if you want a realistic shot at landing a decent job, you'll need to compromise on your expectations here quite heavily.

There are some signs that the market is improving but expect it to take a minimum of 12-18 months before it returns to any semblance of normality.

I'd like a report back from TigerBeetle on how many applications they actually support where the high order 64 bits are nonzero. I would note that the entire US GDP is less than 10^15 cents, and that 2^64 accommodates just shy of 10^19 in signed integers. So, even if your database had a justification for thousands of a cent transactions (not intermediate results, but recordable transactions), you'd still need to have transaction entries larger than the US annual GDP to roll over into the high order 64 bits.

TigerBeetle may have made the right choice for some market, but I predict that there are vanishingly few sales calls where this becomes an important selling point, unless it's potential customers wondering why they are wasting all those bits and checks for a whole lot of freakin' zeros.

GPU cores are powerful but you need to feed them data at very high speeds and large models require to pass around a lot of data. This is why Nvidia datacenter products have NVLink and Infiniband so Big Corp can run their massive models.

In a recent paper I was reading they were bragging they "only" needed 8 x A100 to train their model.

Renting a 4090 24GB costs around $.40/hr. Renting A100 80GB costs around $3.4/hr. For 3x memory and 2x bandwidth.

To fit a 13B model in a 4090 you need to quantize it. Imagine a 130B or 200B model. And never mind training, which needs a lot more memory.

The divide is crazy. If you are not FAANG you are "GPU-poor".

Kamal: Yet another way to deploy your web apps (from the maker of Ruby on Rails)
I wish there was legislation to prevent TV manufacturers from turning TV's into ad-spewing digital signage in your home. It's completely out of control.

Yes, sure, you can, in some cases, plug in an external streaming device and, depending on the system, side step their incredibly abusive home screens full of ads and tracking. This might not be 100% possible on all devices. More importantly, you paid good money for a TV. You bought a TV, not a surveillance device and digital ad system to hang on your wall.

I am not one for heavy-handed government regulation, yet, this is so far out of control that it likely needs it.

The reason this is serious is because consumers have no control whatsoever. Also, most consumers have no idea what's going on. I have watch people innocently use home screens to search or click on things they don't know are ads. When you explain it to them, for the most part, they are incredulous. In a lot of cases they dismiss it with comebacks such as "you are just being paranoid", etc.

Companies like Vizio have introduced features where you get to upload your pictures to their servers to then share with others. Their TOS very clearly states they retain the right to effectively use those pictures as they see fit, including having employees look at them, and more. This is just crazy. People have no idea what is being done to them.

I highlight this because browsers on computers receive a lot of attention, while, TV's seem to be in this wild west mode where the manufacturers do anything they want with every update. Since you cannot install software to block anything, they are free to abuse and monitor your entire family as they please. This is wrong.

My guess is that there will indeed be a lot of excitement in 2024 (at least in Apple land) and then it's going to drop off again in 2025. That's not necessarily a terrible thing though.

Meta has sold something like 25 million headsets. The market is already bigger than many people realize and maybe it's big enough. It doesn't need to 10x and if it did, there's more than a small chance that kind of growth would end up being bad thing. Maybe a16z not biting means enshittification has been delayed.

I don’t think this is the case. fairly recently I’ve seen the old “if you dont want to be tracked by facebook, then dont use it!!!” take on here from people who are supposed to know better.

"For more than 150 trials, Carlisle got access to anonymized individual participant data (IPD). By studying the IPD spreadsheets, he judged that 44% of these trials contained at least some flawed data: impossible statistics, incorrect calculations or duplicated numbers or figures, for instance. And in 26% of the papers had problems that were so widespread that the trial was impossible to trust, he judged — either because the authors were incompetent, or because they had faked the data."

So, 70% fake/flawed. The finding falls in line with other large scale replication studies in medicine, which have had replication success rates ranging from 11 to 44%. [1] It's quite difficult to imagine why studies where a positive outcome is a gateway to billions of dollars in profits, while a negative outcome would result in substantial losses, might end up being somehow less than accurate.

[1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis#In_medicine
While we're on the subject, how many studies period are faked or flawed to the point of being useless? It seems to me that the scientific community's reaction to the replication crisis has been to ignore it.

Serious question for fellow Tesla drivers: Does anyone currently use FSD? What's the value prop? I just got a Model Y and tried it out (it came with a 3 month free trial) and found it awful. To the point of this comment -- it's called "Autopilot" but it yells at you (and punishes you!) if you look at your phone or stop paying attention or take your hands off the wheel.

I just can't imagine this being something I'd pay an extra $199/month (or $15,000) for after the trial's over.

I much prefer the Waymo / Cruise vision of a car I can sit in as a passenger, not this weird hybrid "still need to pay full attention but have none of the control of being an actual driver" version Tesla is offering.

But maybe I'm missing something...?

EDIT: I'm a terrible nerd and confused FSD and Autopilot. What I'm really asking about is FSD (Full Self Driving). Sorry about that!

Maybe you’re misreading my post. I’m not making a judgment on whether gendered roles are inferior or superior.

I’m saying that a number of societal taboos that generally prevented women from accessing economic freedom, no longer exist

You will not be shunned for being a spinster

You will not be shunned for divorce

You will not be shamed for failing to have a baby for your husband.

And so on

Short of making these things illegal, we can’t just magically revive long-gone taboos, even if one thinks we should. Consequently, their absence should be assumed. Hence my statement “we need new cultural norms” - a way to encourage the formation of healthy and successful family units without relying on the shame of spinsterism/divorce

For one class of people,
let's say talk therapy is totally, 100% effective. After x hours of therapy, they are considered healthy, well-adjusted individuals, and won't shoot up a school or music concert.

Let's say talk therapy is only 20% effective for this other class of people. Given y hours of talk therapy, they recieve only .2 * y benefit.

For this group, they need 5 times as much talk therapy to gain the same benefit. 5 is more than 1. The end goal is the same though; healthy well-adjusted people that don't shoot up schools, don't go online and DM random women with mysogynistic screeds,
aren't sad sacks of a human being, and live fulfilling lives. Of course that's up to each individual to decide for themselves as the system is architected, but I think that whole "not shooting up schools thing" bears consideration by society as a goal that's worth pursuing on a wider level.

As for alcohol, you don't even believe in therapy, who are you to tell others how they can make it more effective for them? Obviously black out wasted does no good, but a beer to take the edge off does wonders. A prescribed anoxalytic would do better, but those are far less available.

In a way this isn’t actually a new thing. Throughout most of human history there was nothing like a photograph and it was always possible to fake paintings and other depictions of anything.

As the parent comment says, LLMs are very good at giving plausible answers. Without checking each cell, then the data you eventually output becomes suspect.

We've been trying to solve this problem at Leaptable (https://leaptable.co/). The crux is that while LLMs are still a black box, transparency in the way AI Agents interact with LLMs is key. For instance, seeing the outputs of each step in a chain-of-thought sequence helps debug common fallacies in the way the LLMs reason and built trust.

1. In Node, the main event loop is single threaded. So if you want to do some work that is heavily CPU intensive, until you make an IO call, the Node server isn't free to handle another incoming request. You can test this out with a busy wait loop in a Node request handler. If you have that loop run for, say, 10 seconds, then no other incoming requests can be dispatched for 10 seconds. In other words, Node doesn't allow for preemptive interruption.

Nice. I will add that JS runtimes now have worker threads, while they are still terribly inefficient even when compared to OS threads they can alleviate this problem if you don't need to spawn more than number of cores worker threads. If you are using nodejs and that is not enough, welcome to the microservices world.

> spigot can never determine the next correctly rounded digit after "0.1234" with certainty, for reasons elucidated in the documentation.

Because spigot rounds towards zero in that mode, and it can only bound the result as arbitrarily close to 0.12345 - i.e., it can never decide between 0.12344999..99something and 0.12345000..00something because the "something" part that might break the tie never appears. This is a general issue with exact real computation; in more complicated cases, it can even be undecidable whether some expression is exactly zero.
