That is true but it can be really efficient for certain use cases. In the financial world, it is the de facto standard for receiving real time market data from the exchange. Because it’s important data there is some resiliency. Typically you receive multicast from “A feed” and “B feed” groups and the first packet (sequence number) wins. Also each exchange has its own TCP based mechanism for error recovery (message sequence gaps). Normally everything is pretty reliable as in general most trading is done at the local exchange venue/data center and it’s just local cross connects.

The books in the books3 collection aren't categorized. The source, however, currently is at a ratio of 2:1 nonfiction to fiction, and from what I've seen, whoever created the books3 archive simply attempted to gather all the EPubs they could, with their only criteria being availability.
See: "The pupillary light response as a physiological index of aphantasia, sensory and phenomenological imagery strength."

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9018072/

This study had participants imagine a bright scene, which triggers a physiological pupil response similar to the response of actually walking out into the bright sun. Those who self-reported aphantasia had no physiological pupil response.

Aphantasia is not a "false belief", and I assure you that those with aphantasia find it just as hard to understand mental visual imagery as you find it hard to understand a lack of mental visual imagery.

There is language in the DMA that explicitly prohibits downgrading device capabilities or software features if a user chooses to exercise their new rights to install 3rd party apps and stores. It also states that 3rd party apps and stores must be allowed to access all hardware and software features of the device. The EU already predicted this move and curtailed it.
Oh yeah. Like AI content just barely clears the bar for "good enough" and tons, tons, TONS of the internet absolutely RUNS on "good enough." AI as it exists now is already a perfect and I do mean PERFECT tool if you want to create just reams upon reams of spam. And many websites and services keep their barriers low specifically to attract spammers. And either the spammers or the websites themselves can now generate spam content at hither to only DREAMED OF scales.

Mind you, this is going to make our already barely usable internet utterly INTOLERABLY clogged with repetitive, derivative, bottom of the barrel content... but we've been trending towards that anyway. AI is just going to slam it's foot on the gas pedal. The value of internet advertising is about to crater again and I don't think it ever fully recovered from it's last cratering.
The consequence of this will be that the entirety of online discussion will be in the hands of one company: Meta.

I can cut 50g of butter from a block and be accurate to a couple of grams. A cup though? God help me.

> if every company that offers free services is "evil" and people do not want to pay for access to networks, how the hell is this whole thing supposed to work?

Seems pretty simple to me; cut "companies" out entirely.

The problem with Twitter isn't so much paying for it as monetizing it. Monetization is an endless user-experience sinkhole that optimizes for the lowest-common-denominator and never ends. Locking users in a sinking ship is a bad business model, Twitter only got away with it because it took 10 years to sink and Dorsey had a great poker face.

Platforms like Mastodon decimate this problem, for me. Instead of engineering for monetization, people optimized for user experience. Advertisements don't exist, because they harm the UX and get optimized out; you're not a competitive Mastodon server if you run ads.

I've heard convincing arguements that decentralized platforms lack real-world celebrities, but I only see that as a plus in a post-Musk world.
Right now we use an LLM to extract a textual description of your writing style from past emails, and then we use that in the prompt.

The nice thing about this is that it's editable, so the user can customize the style to be the style they want, not necessarily exactly the style they have.

We're also investigating doing per-user model training for more refined voice... not launched yet though (and comes with tradeoffs).

"Cliff Note" style content sometimes outsells the content they're summarizing. LLMs aren't a new problem, the internet did that already. In fact, they're really LESS likely to provide a large amount of the original content.

I do agree on the fact that the current laws aren't going to work for this context, especially bad is trying to fit the new challenges to copyright laws.

This is a very naïve view of Asset management companies work.

They have tremendous influence:

1- Blackrock has 170 ETFs with 8.5 Trillion USD.

2- When you buy a ETF, you own the ETF, BlackRock owns the underlying Shares.

3- They exercise voting rights, through their BlackRock Investment Stewardship, based on their own internal policies.

4- They provide limited proxy voting to eligible institutional investors, which is a tiny percentage of their actual clients, representing 12% of their holdings. The rest is completely under their control.

5- They define the ETFs, which means they get to choose how to invest, their clients get to choose which ETF to buy.

6- ETFs are usually defined very loosely, with a lot of maneuvering. Even "iShares S&P" definition is "seeks to replicate the performance of S&P 500". This means they don't have to replicate the holdings, just "try" to mirror performance. In practice this means that the top 10 holdings across all different S&P ETFs are similar, but the long tail has a lot of maneuvering and differences. As long as they provide a similar* performance.

7- They are the pushers of ESG, which means there specific ETFs whose portfolio is driven by ESG scores, and their voting decisions across all the assets they hold across all ETFs are shaped by ESG policies.

8- ESG scores is how they "launder" their influence, and they actively campaign and try to shape public discourse around this. They claim to be doing ESG, but in practice they do what they want. A clear example:

While more iOS "appstores" will exist in the coming years, does that really mean those apps will be able to circumvent privacy-related requirements that Apple has set? For example let's take the camera. You have to give an app permission to use your camera. Will another appstore's app just be able to circumvent that? I doubt it. If my assumption isn't the case I'd love to know though!
> I didn't mean that you'd distribute it on a per capita basis

You have to, otherwise you assemble a perverse incentive to not be productive or work. We want less of that as it is, not more.

Working doesn't just mean "working for the man", it can be anything productive that results in income. Such as making and selling paintings, music, whatever.

However, there cannot be a reality where choosing to not work rewards you with as much or more than those who actually work. We also cannot have a system where people choose to peruse fruitless endeavors simply because they enjoy them, and then still get government payments. Yet, the system you propose will be just that - "I need it more because I'm poor - I'm poor because I choose not to work".

The money used to pay these people is complex, but it is not "free" and is largely supported by the working class. We cannot build incentives for the working class to stop working and subsist entirely off government payments (which come from the rest of the working class, leading to a downward spiral for any such program in terms of costs to the nation).

So realistically, the numbers for some sort of UBI are far, far greater than most people admit in these debates (as all-things government tend to be).

Additionally, if the tax equals the original labor, then there is now a negative incentive for businesses to adopt technology and replace employees as well. Employees are more flexible than a robot, for instance, so if costs are equal the human is the better value from the perspective of most businesses (some excluded such as maybe manufacturing).

I feel like it should be possible to have it both ways.

Right now we have a dichotomy with on one hand industrial methods that overuse chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the other hand organic methods that are excessively labor-intensive.

Why is it not possible to use the organic methods, but automate the labor-intensive parts? I understand that we don't currently have the technology to do this, but is there some reason it isn't possible? Wouldn't it be a productive thing to fund the development of?

A cup is a defined measure equal to 1/2 pint. (Or, equivalently, 8 fluid ounces.)

TSM sell LCS spot to Shopify Rebellion in reported $10M deal
You can still try it with Llama, and no it wasn't the full text of the page, or even very accurate. Even the "popular" quotes were VERY likely to be paraphrased and missing any poetry or cadence of the original.

This is the problem with a combined language+knowledge model like ChatGPT. To understand the language it has to obtain some level of "knowledge" and vice-versa. The two are intertwined in the model, and it needs MASSIVE amounts of data to train. Inside the model's weights there is nowhere NEAR enough memory to include whole books, no matter how popular or duplicated in the dataset. Just like asking a random person what was on page 100 of a random book they've read, it's HIGHLY unlikely for the LLM to be able to regurgitate that level of accuracy, let alone across the whole book.
The idea is to also generally handle scanned documents as well. Besides sometimes text boxes can get very distorted with whitespace such that the boxes look to a computer very different then they do in new life.

In practice, you are right that this would be more efficient in many cases (not scanned, no weird whitespace), but in practice, the cost of OCR is so low compared to the LLM costs and the relative consistency of OCR outputs helps a lot means that I don't try to handle the PDF object extraction.
It would be cool if you could figure out a way to have this work on top of FF's reader view.
Kids doing it absolutely OK with Apple. They’re not going to lose money there.

The problem is the kids parents. When kid borrows dad’s phone and disables banking apps, dad will be upset. When aunt Jane ends up with 12 app stores and “Panterist” apps that don’t work the same as her daughter’s “Pinterest” app, she’s going to blame Apple. Maybe even clog up support. Just look at how much A/B testing causes problems on apps - now imagine the knockoff apps and the support required for unofficial apps.

Regardless of your views on this, Apple claims everything on the App Store is “theirs”. Listen to their marketing copy and court statements. Those apps are theirs to sell, and they think they have a claim to the entire iPhone UX. They obviously can’t manage the crap that will flood the market from 3p app stores. They will absolutely trash the permissions or UX of these apps to protect their image. It’s obviously about the money, but I genuinely believe that Apple leadership will be reacting emotionally viewing those app stores as a threat.

My suspicion is that they’ll make the iPhone “run software” but gate more of the SDK and on-device APIs behind contracts and NDAs. Gaining access to various docs and terms will get way more expensive, and become a legal affair instead of the mostly self-service process it is today. For example, no way they allow you to use HomeKit or WeatherKit or *Kit sdk with a non-AppStore contract.
Read bell hooks' "The Will to Change" to start. As someone on the far-left, we talk about positive masculinity all the time.

The whole concept of intersectional feminism is that there are different classes of privilege and exploitation that are relative to each other. To say that modern feminism doesn't think men are exploited is to misunderstand modern feminism.

Are young men exploited? Absolutely. They are exploited by capitalists to extract as much value out of their labor, their bodies be damned.

Are they exploited by people in power? Absolutely. The entire manosphere exploits their loneliness and keeps them isolated as emotionless rugged individuals.

Men are humans just as women are humans, and men have the same human need to connect and socialize. Toxic masculinity strips them of fulfilling that need.

Feminism gets caricatured so much by people who have something to benefit from that lampooning. Rather than dogpiling on the "feminism is mean to men" bandwagon, actually read modern feminist literature on masculinity.

i hear you. i said something similar myself: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37563960

but i was not even thinking about male only groups when i read your comment. i was only trying to point out that segregation along many dimensions is kind of unavoidable.

gender and racial segregation (and maybe religion) are actually the exceptions here. yet, i have to accept that most of the groups i join are predominately white males. but it's only a problem when others are explicitly excluded and not just missing because they have different interests.

every group is its own echo chamber, and the only way to avoid carving yourself into that echo chamber is to join multiple groups.
The only thing I like about this is the idea of the bandwhich tool.

For one example, see Barney Frank, co-author of the Dodd-Frank act. After retiring from congress he found himself with a board role on Signature Bank. Over the seven years he "worked" there he accumulated around $1M in salary + equity.

Or for another example, see the Hunter Biden/Burisma story. I think the media coverage of this is mostly partisan quackery, but it's a useful illustration here as to how you can make a good deal of money just being vaguely associated with american politicians. Hunter is certainly not unusual in this regard.
