Have you actually tried this?

I did the first step and even that didn't work well. The "iterations of layout in MidJourney" step. If people can make it work, well bless them, but we're not getting rid of our graphic designer now.

I love rust, but "bar none" is perhaps overstating it. While formal methods aren't the same thing as static analyasis MISRA, SPARK, and normal Ada shouldn't be dismissed as things vastly less worthwhile.
That’s the current culture. How many times have you heard “I want to speak with a real person” or “artisanal hand made”.
I wonder if it would be a human-ish/esque/like interface to the MMLM? At Japanese Complete, we recently announced such a project to become available once the MMLMs are more dialed in. I think this is a natural step for the big players. We have our curriculum as an edge, so optimistically beat featurization. Announcement: https://japanesecomplete.com/articles/?p=1574

I found one in a supposedly
IEC 61508 compiler. It was nasty.

Every so often our OS needed to read a memory mapped asynchronous timer, comparing values it emitted until they stopped changing to confirm that the various system clock demands were safely aligned and that the addition of a periodic tick was not rippling its way through the counter, before using the value. This time I ran at 32.768 kHz, but to see the glitch required reading the timer exactly as the adder rippled. Most of the time the CPU would read in between the ripples and it would work fine.

This driver had worked on several released products with an earlier version of the compiler, we upgraded the compiler slightly to take advantage of a new instruction set in the next chip.

The updated compiler would rarely assume sequential volatile reads from the same address had the same value.

Something like while(v!=v){} would become the equivalent of if(v!=v)while(1){};

This compiler fault meant that our previously working driver would lock up the machine between maybe an hour and a few days, whenever a particular IRQ occurred during the clock domains race.

Normally watchdogs would trap most infinite loops in the system, but it didn't I knew that it had to be this particular IRQ. Disassembled the whole thing, which only had one loop in it (this one). Took me forever to find because the loop structure was essentially correct except that it was branching just past one of the loads that needed redone. So instead of load x, load y, compare y,x, branch if difference to load x, it branches to load y, a difference of two bytes in the branch offset.

The compiler vendor confirmed this and corrected it in the next compiler version. The ticket number used to be on their website but they no longer publish the change log that far back.
I don't want to typical mind the world and assume very many people feel the same, but I'm at least chiming in with the few here who have already they don't like wearing any kind of jewelry or really non-essential accoutrement of any kind. I have thankfully never needed corrective glasses, but I don't wear sunglasses, either, nor a watch, nor hats. I don't even wear my wedding ring except when I'm traveling and my wife nags me enough. I get that a wearable probably feels less obtrusive than a phone to someone who actually uses their phone a lot, but I don't. It's not obtrusive sitting in my pocket and even less so when it's on my bedside table charging and I'm somewhere else without it. Anything I'm wearing is inherently there. I don't particularly want to be that integrated with a digital world. I don't usually feel much of a need to record or augment my environment.

I'd go for musculoskeletal enhancement, given how much it sucks to get old and have more or less at least one active chronic joint injury at all times no matter what, but thankfully, for now, my eyes and memory still work pretty well on their own.

Facebook has been open-sourcing AI research longer than OpenAI has even had the concept of an "investor narrative". I struggle to understand how someone could jump to the conclusion of this being a "scorched earth" maneuver with so many other reasonable explanations. Facebook has a laboratory (FAIR) with a long history of research and releases like this.

> If Llama cost hypothetical one billion, they inflict a multiple on that on their competitors with this move while gaining massive technological advantages.

If Llama cost a hypothetical one billion, then they amortized the cost over the value of the end product and the free advertisement alone.

Maybe their competitors got scooped, but GPT-3 and GPT-4 haven't gone anywhere. Not to mention, there were lots of other language models from FAANG before Llama arrived. It's not like those were made and released to spite their competitors; it was research. Google and Microsoft have lots of open Transformer research you can find.

Inflicting "damage" and gaining massive technological advantages is quite literally not their goal nor what they've done for the past half-decade. If it is, they've done a terrible job so far by collaborating with Microsoft to open their model format and provide inferencing acceleration for outdated hardware platforms.

> The improvements made to llama by open source community people already have propelled it past Bard by many accounts and this is a model that a few months ago was absolutely non competitive and downright bad.

This is something the original Llama paper acknowledged before the community "discovered" it:

> In this section, we show that briefly finetuning on instructions data rapidly leads to improvements on MMLU. Although the non-finetuned version of LLaMA-65B is already able to follow basic instructions, we observe that a very small amount of finetuning improves the performance on MMLU, and further improves the ability of the model to follow instructions.

Neither does Meta, nor Microsoft, nor Google, who have all been content to work on progressive and open AI research. Who do you perceive as their "competitors"? Each other?

Agreed, and not sure either; the 5G rollout is another great example. In most of the houses I've been in, you're lucky to have cable (for DOCSIS). Most are stuck on ADSL, with providers selling misleading "superfast fibre" products that, in comparison to the rest of the world, are not super fast in any sense of the word.

If you look at BT, they offer FTTP but a lot of the time you have pitiful upload rates (symmetric 1Gbps would be nice), like 1Gbps/100Mbps.

There's a lot of bureaucracy over here, which slows technological advances down. Couple that with the very outdated architecture we have over here (we've pushed ADSL to its limits), it's quite sad.

Games moved 20+ million units. That's 'the needle', unless your goal is to depose the iPhone. And clearly Meta is content to leave it alone, since the Quest even has an iOS companion app. They're complimentary products, not cannibalistic.

On the other hand, I can guarantee that most people who already own an iPhone will regret buying a Vision Pro. It's too expensive and too redundant to matter as a piece of hardware. It's not a market-redefining release like the Quest was, nor is it a proprietary solution to unfixable problems. It's an expensive thing, and for most people the Quest value proposition will align long before the Vision Pro value proposition does. The Hololens already tried this avenue too; merely offering a premium version of mixed reality doesn't work (even when the military is your customer).

It'll be years before the dust settles, but the Quest has gotten undeniably far on it's own. You can rationalize that success however you want, but you'll consistently be confused if you hold it to unproven standards like "spatial computing". For me, the Quest is the first Facebook product I've used where I can understand the vision at a consumer level and from a top-down level.

Priors should never, ever factor into it like this.

I was a foster child who was taken from my parents wrongly. A third party (not connected to child services) made a false accusation to the cops, who took me and turned me over to child services without any investigation. Even though I insisted nothing had happened and even though child services failed to produce any evidence (beyond aforesaid hearsay) over the course of their investigation, child services nonetheless fought extremely hard against letting me go home to my family.

In the end, a judge had to order them to return me to my family because they refused to accept that the accusation had been a lie.

In the meantime, I went through three different foster homes. I was a very difficult kid to foster (I cried and screamed a lot, demanding to go home) and so I unfortunately experienced abuse and neglect in two of the three homes. (My first foster home was particularly severe, which was strange because they were otherwise great parents to their biological kids. At least the other abusive home treated their real children equally poorly.)
No but also all of us are rapidly approaching “old man yells at cloud” on this issue.

Quote from article:

>When it comes to AI, argues Simon Johnson, an economist at MIT, the WGA has burst out in front of other unions, and everyone should take note. As he and several coauthors laid out in a recent policy memo on pro-worker AI, the history of automation teaches that workers cannot wait until management deploys these technologies; if they do, they will be replaced.
> I often wonder this too, but... I think making "another Google" is not the best example.

100% agreed.

They really should have used Twitter as an example. Any competent full-stack developer could probably have a working clone of Twitter running in a weekend.

The challenge I think is scaling it to millions of daily active users.

But, even then, Twitter has been around for over 10 years. The scaling problem seems to have been solved. I would think that these days, Twitter engineering would just be a whack-a-mole of odd obscure bugs. I can't think of any useful new features it's gotten in the last two years. Why do they still need so many engineers?

APL people often point to the definition of "average" as evidence for its economy of expression: +/÷≢

They make the argument "the word 'average' has more symbols than its definition, so why not just use the definition inline as a tacit function?"

There's some elegant beauty in this that I'm sympathetic to. However, I think it's fundamentally flawed for one big reason, which in my opinion is the core of the unreadability of APL (and other array languages that rely on custom symbology):

Humans think in words, not letters. There is never semantic content in individual letters; a word is not defined by its letters. Sometimes a word's definition can be deduced from its syllables ("un-happi-ness") but the number of prefixes/suffixes is miniscule compared with the number of root words.

We naturally chunk concepts and create referential identifiers to the abstractions. The point of an alphabet is to make the identifiers generally pronounceable and distinguishable.

+/÷≢ is not pronounceable as a single word, even among APL experts ("add reduce divide tally" is not a word). We have a word for this concept in English, "average" (and synonyms "avg" and "mean"), in common usage among programmers and laymen alike. Using +/÷≢ to mean "average" would be like defining a function AddReduceDivideTally(x), which in any reasonable codebase would be an obviously bad function name.

The semantics of array languages, like stack languages, already lend themselves to extraordinary expressivity and terseness, even without a compressed symbology. What is wrong with this?

sum := add reduce
average := sum divide tally

I mean that is it, the essence of "average"! Anyone who knows both English and Computer Science can look at that and understand it more or less immediately. Compressing this into an esoteric alphabet does nothing for furthering understanding, it only creates a taller Tower of Babel to separate us from our goal of developing and sharing elegant definitions of computation concepts.

Yeah, all of this was just iPhone -- I did capture with Matterport's app. Some of the final results didn't have great lighting, etc, and a laser scanner would have much better quality. I wondered how this type of capture would look compared to the other cameras that I usually work with--for creating educational materials more than scientific recording because it's so much faster.

The iPhone Lidar results are messier, and the 360 images took a bit of time to edit both as eqs and cubemaps to brighten certain areas, fix bad stitching in the 360 images, remove people, etc.

Since the last project, I'd been working on a new system with threejs to make the tours more gamelike, so I brought the 360 images and 3d data into the new system, cut out the highlight overlays from the 360 images, added the netherworld environment art, and coded up shaders to do various effects in the storytelling.
The problem of potential mixed messages and confusion is two-sided, so if the rule made sense at all, it would require avoiding both people who were either known to be attracted to your gender or of a gender you were attracted to.

They had no chance to afford tickets to popular shows thanks to artists not providing enough seats or dates. If there is more demand than supply then your options are high prices or shortages.

> Plane tickets are all virtually as this person described. Someone in your party can’t go to Jamaica with you because they got sick/broke up with you/whatever? Nobody cares, AND no refunds.

People do in fact care, it's a common gripe about airlines screwing you, and the people who care a lot pay extra for a transferable ticket -- which are available. Which in turn allows the airlines to point to that and say you should've bought the more expensive ticket. But you can only say that if it's available, and if it is then the scalpers just buy those.

Show HN: Carton – Run any ML model from any programming language
The goal of Carton is to let you use a single interface to run any machine learning model from any programming language.

It’s currently difficult to integrate models that use different technologies (e.g. TensorRT, Ludwig, TorchScript, JAX, GGML, etc) into your application, especially if you’re not using Python. Even if you learn the details of integrating each of these frameworks, running multiple frameworks in one process can cause hard-to-debug crashes.

Ideally, the ML framework a model was developed in should just be an implementation detail. Carton lets you decouple your application from specific ML frameworks so you can focus on the problem you actually want to solve.

At a high level, the way Carton works is by running models in their own processes and using an IPC system to communicate back and forth with low overhead. Carton is primarily implemented in Rust, with bindings to other languages. There are lots more details linked in the architecture doc below.

Importantly, Carton uses your model’s original underlying framework (e.g. PyTorch) under the hood to actually execute the model. This is meaningful because it makes Carton composable with other technologies. For example, it’s easy to use custom ops, TensorRT, etc without changes. This lets you keep up with cutting-edge advances, but decouples them from your application.

I’ve been working on Carton for almost a year now and I’m excited to open source it today!
