Of these, I think I'm most surprised by Vicuna-33B.

For having MIT Bench and MMLU scores significantly worse than #4 and #5, it fairs quite well (47% and 42% choice rate 1v1). Its only vs the #3+ things get bad (although notably also does better vs GPT-4 than many)

Really, the choice rate's not bad when you really look at it. Even vs the top its 1/3, 2/3. Nowhere near as bad as NBA/NFL vs high-schoolers or similar "Professional Grade" situation.

Also the first Non-Commercial top option.

People have said Apple can buy companies like NSO for less than they probably spend on SEIMs in a year. But as soon as they do that there will be another startup doing the same thing.

Some people might react to your mass murder with an even less reductive and hostile response. e.g.:

Suppose there were another drug developed in secret, an anti-vioxx. It reduces your risk of all-causes mortality by a fraction of a percent.
But it has these side effects:

1. Chronic pain. It's with you as long as you're taking your anti-vioxx and lets you know it's working.

2. Joint stiffness, often debilitating and sometimes leaving you practically chair-bound.

Would you take it? Should everyone take it? Should everyone be legally mandated to take it?

Unfortunately you've fallen victim to years of anti-GPL propaganda and FUD. A 10-liner GPL Python script is not going to "infect" an org with 20 million lines of closed source code. Suggesting that it's possible, even "in theory", is absurd.

Yes, you need to be careful when you integrate GPL and LGPL code into your proprietary code base, and in some cases you just cannot do it. But so what? You are not entitled to use of that code. If you can't use it because of its license, then that's life: move on and find something else that you can use, or write it yourself.

And you also seem to think that if you screw up, and do depend on a GPL library (for example) in a proprietary code base, then you're required to give away the source for your 20 million proprietary lines of code. But that's not the case. There are many different remedies possible. One (common) remedy might be to cease distribution of the infringing code, remove the GPL component, replace it with something else, and re-release.

I think there are very few copyright owners who release their code under the GPL who would immediately push for the remedy to be your company releasing all of their proprietary code under the GPL. At least certainly not at first contact, if the company is capable of acknowledging their mistake and working in good faith to correct it. And even if a copyright owner did decide to push for this, it is ultimately up to a court to decide, and it seems vanishingly unlikely that a court would order that remedy, especially if the company was offering less-extreme, good-faith options.

> It is trying to force my will on other people’s code

I just wanted to call this out specifically, because, again: absurd. Please look at it from the default state: you do not get to use someone else's code at all. That's what copyright law says, in the absence of another agreement. Even if you have the source code to my library (or whatever), you cannot use it in your product unless I have given you a license to do so.

If you are considering using someone else's code in your project, one of the first things you should do is look at the license. If you see GPL, and don't want to abide by the terms of that license, you move on and find something else. That code is not trying to "force its will" on you. You are free to use it and follow its licensing terms, or move on. You are no poorer because that code is there, as you are not entitled to use it without a license anyway.
"Our data indicate that, contrary to received wisdom, humans tend to burn the same number of calories regardless of how physically active they are."

How is this even remotely compatible with physics. If you're more physically active, it requires expending more energy. You can't perform more work for the same calories.

The article also references papers to back up their claims, but of course there's no citations or links to said papers.
My point is that there are many other, more fulfilling ways to get human company than forcing your co-workers to commute to the office everyday. Besides, for the many people who live with a family/kids/partner, WFH lets them spend even more time with them. The solution for people whose only source of social interaction is the office is to develop a social life outside of the office, not to force everyone else into RTO.

Consider this - in Germany, are the Greens and the SPD really that different? In Canada, are the Liberals and New Democrats really all that different? In many countries what happens is that these slightly nuanced parties end up in coalition governments anyway. Which could be a good thing as a party can be formed around a single issue and can strongly advocate in coalition for that issue.

In the US, both dominate parties are actually coalitions that would be separate parties in other countries. It isn't perfect, and these factions sometimes have serious disagreements, but within the Dems we generally believe we are stronger together. The Republican party is going through a serious reckoning between its traditional base and a more extreme wing. It won't surprise me if Democrats go through something similar in about another decade as Gen Z comes of age and wants to push their agenda faster than the traditional moderates within the party.

So you're talking about untagged unions?

> This is useful as a shorthand when you don't want/need a new type to represent your problem, similar to tuples.

Yes this is handled perfectly by the generic sum type, you don't need untagged unions for this. Rust used to have Either in its standard library, but they removed it and kept Result only. Semantically they're the same (a ⊕ b) but Result's name implies it has something to do with some "results". Anyways nothing stops you from creating one yourself, or even using Result if you're fine with the weird-sounding name.

The original 3DS was definitely a "hold it at the right angle and keep it there" while the New 3DS tracking allowed for a lot more flexibility with how you hold it for the 3D to not be disorienting.

My problem with my New 3DS XL is that the power button is right where I put my pinky finger when using the shoulder buttons so playing Super Metroid sometimes ends with me "setting the 3DS down" on a desk while playing it, and my pinky bumps the power button which immediately autocloses whatever app you were running. Maybe there's a config option to not do that lol

Not really. Most people in that space who have a “day job” are almost always open to being hired for better TC/benefits/more interesting problems.

Points 3 & 4 are largely correct.

It’s very rock and roll, but a very unstable income and most of the brokerages are comically untrustworthy. Also you may develop a conscience and find it hard to sleep at night.

Point 4… usually the people who can find such bugs reliably don’t work well in large corps past the short term. The unexplained gaps in a CV also aren’t conducive to getting past HR easily.

I suppose in the long run it's not unlikely things will change. And for Google, it would be a shame if they had lost their relationship with Mozilla, by the time users flock away from Chrome. Not too unlikely if they continue baking this user tracking and add targeting into their product.

I'm in the middle of going down this path right now. It kind of works, except for certain banking institutions require more rigor than just getting accepted into the developer platform.

The steps, as far as I can tell, look something like this:

1) Sign up for Plaid developer account

2) Request developer access (without it you can only play with sandbox data)

3) Request production access

4) Submit application information including a name, website URL, and logo

5) Add a legal company entity name and address to my plaid account

6) Sign an MSA contract (no idea what its about)

7) Fill out a security questionnaire.

I'm at step 3 currently but I'm not sure how much further I'm realistically going to get. I'm not sure I could reasonably fill the rest without stretching the truth quite a bit and it seems to get deep into legal territory that I'm not sure I'm comfortable with.

There's also apparently different API behaviors depending on the bank: https://plaid.com/docs/link/oauth/#institution-specific-beha...

My favorite region isolation oversight was when someone realized that the perl cron job that iterated over every border router globally and applied ACL updates 2-3x per day didn't pay attention to isolation at all, and could easily have just started blackholing the entire network one device at a time if someone configured a bad rule.

The mitigation was to sort routers by hostname which began with the regional airport codes (iad, pdx, etc.), and pause for 15 minutes each time the first three letters changed to give folks on-call time to react.

To make it a better mirror image, let's add a couple details to your anti-vioxx example: anti-Merck has hidden all the evidence of chronic pain and joint stiffness as side-effects, and taking it once will cause them permanently. The anti-FDA has approved the drug under fraudulent conditions as they lack the information that anti-Merck has. The drug is widely prescribed and now between 50 and 500 thousand (the exact number is not known due to poor reporting methods) people have new chronic joint pain. Should anyone go to anti-jail? ;)

(The latter condition was necessary to simulate the lack of knowledge patients had about their increased mortality, obviously difficult to reproduce in pain.)

I'd love to. If we lived in a world where micro-transactions were simple and inexpensive I would love to pay (how much it costs to serve me my content)+(20% overhead for profit). At least my money would be going to the publisher.

There were/are a few companies out there that, for a monthly subscription price, give you paywalled content. They sucked because they were selective about that content, but the idea of paying a clearing house a monthly fee, and having a piece of JS on _everybody's_ site that recognized me and provided the content with no ads and no tracking actually makes me want to take off my tin-foil hat and embrace the internet panopticon.
>> law/power is continually traded for cash/favors

> I worked on the Hill and that's not how it works.

Your are asserting that law/power is not continually traded for cash/favors. That's a pretty clear assertion and I appreciate it.

To follow, you would also assert that this chain doesn't exist in any meaningful way:

Major campaign donations are used by legislator -> Legislator benefiting from funds is critical to creation of law/regulation or to enactment of federal action taken that is favorable to donor -> Influential/lucrative, positions that benefit the legislator (or their interest) are made available to the legislator (during/after the elected term) by the donor.

recap: You are asserting that what I describe above is not occurring on an ongoing basis, correct?
Thankfully you don't have any idea of my (current) location.

We have known this is coming for decades, we have known it will be devastating to the sustainability of human civilization as it exists. Little to nothing has been done in a timely manner. And now it's here.

In my opinion there's a kind of Accelerationism going on here, where those who contribute the most to global warming also believe that they will be insulated from the effects, and therefore are the least inclined to address the issue. They're probably not wrong.

That is, those with wealth and power believe in climate change - they just don't care if monsoonal crops fail or northern India becomes uninhabitable. Denialism was always a strategy, not a serious strain of thought.

Most deposits of methane clathrate are in sediments too deep to respond rapidly,[96] and 2007 modelling by Archer suggests that the methane forcing derived from them should remain a minor component of the overall greenhouse effect.[97] Clathrate deposits destabilize from the deepest part of their stability zone, which is typically hundreds of metres below the seabed. A sustained increase in sea temperature will warm its way through the sediment eventually, and cause the shallowest, most marginal clathrate to start to break down; but it will typically take on the order of a thousand years or more for the temperature change to get that far into the seabed.[97] Further, subsequent research on midlatitude deposits in the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean found that any methane released from the seafloor, no matter the source, fails to reach the atmosphere once the depth exceeds 430 m (1,411 ft), while geological characteristics of the area make it impossible for hydrates to exist at depths shallower than 550 m (1,804 ft).[98][99]
