It doesn't seem ridiculous to me, I get where you're coming from. Only I'd say you've been misled.

As others have pointed out, you can have both a walled garden store and an Apple curated store — and this is how Android operates. More menacing though, are Apples reasons for not wanting competition.

Put simply; if Safari wasn't the only allowed browser on iDevices (other browsers are just skins over what is essentially Safari), they would lose a significant amount of power. They can throw their weight around now, partially because they have a strong web browser market share — but it's artificially imposed.

If you don't think it's forced, have a quick quiz at work amongst Apple fanboys, and find out how many of them use Safari as their default web browser — on their Macs.
Very cool! At first the title reminded me of a project me and my colleague are working on called OpenAI-Functools [1], but your concept is quite the opposite, combining LLMs in your code rather seamlessly instead of the other way around. Quite cool, and interesting examples :)

I’ll definitely try to apply it in one of my pet projects. Good stuff

Also, some of us weird folk have both an AMD and NVIDIA GPU in one machine...

Actually, I guess that is more common now that AMD CPUs have a GPU built in?
It seems like Hotz and co are able to move pretty well on it, so maybe there's some low-level stuff they're using (or maybe they're forced to for a few reasons) w.r.t. the tinybox, but it is impressive how much they've been able to do so far I think. :3 <3 :')))) :')
If you have experience with C#, then you really don't need to go out of your way since you can use either MAUI or Avalonia (the former is the successor of Xamarin Forms, targeting native controls, while the latter offers a consistent look across all platforms).
It’s hard to find that value niche in the middle. They do exist within categories eg Anker for USB related things.
In my experience, and on iOS, it only works with the first-party Mail.app; trying to use a third-party app like GMail won't pull up 2FA codes.
> "what happens if you get hit by a bus?"

This is actually a weasel sentence for "you are too poor" and it's kind of patronising. What do they expect to happen if solo entrepreneur get hit by a bus? That he or she has like a dead man switch that will send over all the business secrets, IP, passwords etc to a trusted person to ensure continuity?

In reality the rich look for business run by someone with generational wealth or someone who already made it and they don't trust the poor. There is an exception if they want to make a token investment, like helping the poor or disadvantaged will get them a badge in their social circle or they need it for PR.

People run their business on their own mostly because they don't have money to hire a team that will "survive" owner being hit by a bus.

So if a potential investor asks that question, it's better to politely turn them down. They are not genuine.

(I attended many seminars for angel investors, VC funds etc. and that's my take away)
It almost sounds like it’s not using your dedicated graphics card. Do other WebGL demos run alright for you?
Love Ballard's novels. Recently finished The Day of Creation which had echoes of Conrad's Heart of Darkness but where the hero this time is Kurtz.

Seems like all of his novels are about an everyday man who encounters some unsettling kind of wildness or chaos and then "goes native" and achieves some kind of abnormal stability.
It's not that trivial to do as an end-user. If I listen to a podcast on Spotify which I'd like to share with you (who doesn't use Spotify), I would have to Google that podcast and try to find a RSS-Link for it, which becomes more and more difficult as most pages now link directly to Spotify or Apple and provide no RSS-url.

Ideal would be an URI like podcast:// which apps could simply register for on OS-level, but I frankly don't know which entity would actually want to drive such a standardization.
This is fantastic and actually written more clearly than my own!

As for your point:

> You can’t watch videos on it

I don’t seem to have the same issue? Most videos on the internet stream/load fine without much struggle on my X220. Does your laptop heat up / spin up the fan?
The fact that Safari is available for multiple OS versions might be a remnant of the work done to ship Safari for Windows.
I actually use Podman and write Kube config yaml instead of docker compose yaml. I do like it better. It's a bit more polished.

Trevor! I loved your CS elective at DigiPen on designing programming languages with grammars.

Many of the students you taught are working on Minecraft now. I'm using so many fundamentals taught by you and my time at DigiPen when designing the Minecraft scripting API today.

Glad to see you're still rocking it.
The Radeon MI series seems to perform fine if you follow their software stack happy path. Same for using modified versions of ROCm on APUs, it's just no one has been willing to invest in paying a few developers to work on broader hardware support full-time, thus any bugs outside enterprise Linux distros on Radeon MI series cards do not get triaged.
I don’t think that’s excessive either. But if one user is using 384 TB of bandwidth each month, the ISP needs to pay for that bandwidth somehow. If another user is using 40gb per month, it seems unfair to me that both users should pay the same amount of money for their connections.

The user who uses 10 000x the bandwidth should pay more than the person using 10kx less bandwidth. Not proportionally more - a lot of the cost of connection is fixed. But some of it isn’t. The ISP at some point needs to upgrade their network links to handle the extra bandwidth going through their network. And I think it’s reasonable the person who’s using all that bandwidth pay more for the upgrade than people who aren’t using the bandwidth.

The nice thing about having a financial model around bandwidth is we don’t need judgemental words like “excessive” and “gluttonous”. You just pay for what you need. Simple as that.

This was a helpful and really informative comment. Thank you!
Oh come on, 95% of jobs are CRUDs:

- data is in the database

- get data from the database using ORM solution

- pull stuff from Backend (from Frontend), using REST/Graphql

- display it in a nice way using whatever the du-jour styling solution they picked.

This isn't rocket science. Do I really have to make some BS about why I'm "excited" about this company or industry in the cover letter.

Look at the number of applicants at a linked job posting. It's usually high 3 digit numbers, sometimes 4 digits.

Are they really going to read all this flowery cover letters about how you feel about their company.
We could have jobs programs to green our economy, planet and lives, instead of glorified daycare for adults.

It generates HTML from common lisp s-expressions. This is useful because s-expressions are much easier to write and manipulate, especially with a package like paredit.

I like the idea of carbon offsets and carbon trading (i.e. give a market incentive to take CO2 out of the air), but this obviously isn't working. Stricter controls might help, but it would become a cat and mouse game.

Part of me, jokingly (mostly), thinks we should replace it with a "carbon buy-back" program where people and/or the government can donate money to buy carbon from people and bury it deep or sink it in the ocean or something. Go clear cut all that land, sell it to the program, then replant. That's the only way I can see a market solution really working. Corporations donate to the fund to ease their corporate consciences and the carbon gets dumped down an old mine shaft and buried in concrete.

Of course, it likely wouldn't work for a lot of reasons, but it would at least be more on point. "Don't just promise to sequester carbon, bring it to us to dispose of" would at least help take the gaming out of that particular system.

Awesome product! It really helps to speed up the build time of backend. The AI generated nodes are amazing and I can just ask the AI to generate code!
it's a genius business for a "retailer"

normally they'd need to pay for storage, stock, liquidation of stock they didn't sell, returns etc

and instead now you pay for all of that for them

and what do you get in return?

- a listing on page 17 of their ever increasingly shitty website behind legions of MINFARTO, PATRONICS and GIBRANKER aliexpress garbage
- customer service staff with an inability to understand simple english or basic problems
- your genuine stock mixed with counterfeits, that then they penalise you for
- paying to give your sales information to them as a potential competitor, as if you do well they'll ripoff your product

and they take essentially absolutely no risk whatsoever

not a good deal at all
I only knew the reference from Airplane! A few years after.
I’ve known plenty of folks who used mdma, has a “bad trip” and attacked a friend or loved one, violently.

People on meth doing crimes are just shitty criminals. Meth is a stimulant. It doesn’t alter your reality or change you into someone else. If you’re doing shady stuff on meth, you’re just a shady person period, drugs or not. Sleep deprivation is a different beast though, and that will screw with people. Meth naturally can cause sleep deprivation. But if properly rested, doing meth is the same in terms of effects as cocaine, just stronger and lasts much longer. Stims don’t make you hallucinate or trip. Not meth, amphetamine, coke, caffeine. All varying strengths and durations for the same thing, a central nervous system stimulant, none of which have the ability to make a person do something they don’t want to do. Do we blame coffee for crimes if the criminal had a double espresso before robbing a bank? The bias is thick. Meth will not suddenly make a person go from never doing crimes to doing crime sprees from consuming it. That’s not how the drug works and it’s weird so many people have this view.
Note that Fred Meyer (18.4) and QFC (14.1) are already both owned by Kroger. So that would be 49.8% post-merger, per those figures.

These figures seem to be for the Seattle metro rather than the city itself. Costco might be a competitor in some sense but it doesn't serve the area I live -- the nearest one is a 45 minute drive away. WinCos are even further away -- they serve some of the suburbs, but not the city of Seattle. Ditto Walmart. I've never heard of or seen Campeon. Whole Foods / PCC exist, but are expensive. Trader Joe's is fine but not really a full grocery store.
never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity, EXCEPT when money is involved. if money is involved, and it can be explained by malice, then it is malice, every time.

the other seller likely reported you as counterfeit, and Amazon believed them.
You kidding me? This is the only reasonable explanation of matrix multiplication. I remember learning it in school, and memorizing how the input dimensions corresponded to output dimensions, without understanding why.

This gets to the why perfectly. We all understand how to navigate a 3D space intuitively. If the math doesn't tie into that, it may as well be wizard nonsense.
the war probably had a major deterrent effect as well.
I'd guess Threejs or Babylonjs would be because they're web first but regardless super cool project!
So what? That does not affect those of us using Firefox.
Completely agree, I'd love to see some of the innovations from HPC move over into their LLM stack.

We are working on it, but it takes time.

Contributions to foundational layers like ROCBlas, pytorch, slurm, Tensile, huggingface, etc would help.
This seems like a good report.

I have a hunch that from this path of inquiry and others, we are going to identify and classify modes and methods of reasoning particular to ML systems. I think it seems overly-simplistic to assume that a thinking machine would need to think exactly like a human.
Since the discussion started in the comments already, I have a similar question: any recommendations for a solution (don’t care if OSS or not) that has the best UX for nontechnical people to assemble some data and reports anyhow? I have Salesforce, some mariadb/postgres and (optionally) hubspot as data sources.

I can buy or manually provision anything, no technical hurdles or policies from that side. My absolute focus is the raw UX for business people.

Suggestions?
AMD's debuggers and profilers let you disassemble kernel/shader machine code and introspect registers and instruction latency. That's something at least that Nvidia doesn't do with Nsight tools.
yes, a prisoner may be locked inside and have a laid out routine for them, but they do still have a say in the minutiae and their small actions could actually echo into the future.

Another thought, just because our unconscious mind also plays a part, people fear that this implies mostly determinism but really why are we considering that as not also our thoughts too? They're just thoughts that our deeper mind has put forth and our deeper mind doesn't usually want to be questioned, they've got more hard data. Still you can fight this or things like suicide, soldiers. daredevils wouldn't be possible. We just don't get to see how it came to conclusions so we assume it's some hard-wired code.
Thanks! Currently magentic just uses OpenAI function-calling; it provides it a function schema that matches the structure of the output object. So it fails in the same ways as function-calling - struggles to match complex schemas, occasionally returns empty arrays, ...
Tailwind is just a slightly easier way to write CSS. It doesn't have any in-built styles or components, so is nothing like Bootstrap. You are probably using Tailwind UI or some other component framework on top of it (which is the equivalent to Bootstrap that you are talking about).
Same.

I assumed cover letters were for non-programmers and that places that demand them are trying to hire programmers with an antiquated/non-programmer interview process, which I interpreted as a red flag.
> It's the intention that matters... to work as deterrent, to change them so that they won't repeat their crime in the future...to let people feel "they got what they deserved."

When I said "punishment" I meant the purely revenge version. I was basically working from that assumption, and this is what we'd been previously discussing.

So, I was purely speaking from a harm perspective. The argument is that it makes no sense to try to harm anyone, for any action, no matter how evil.

Without "free will" this is a violent act of senseless aggression against the innocent. Interestingly, if it's an animal we think it probably doesn't have "free will", however we accept this as a reason IN FAVOR of disregarding their rights (eg. the killer bear doesn't think and feel like us, just shoot it).

With modern sensibilities, you shouldn't hurt people unless they do something under their own "free will"; but this is never true, if we don't have "free will" to begin with.

So if an animal kills we use their lack of free will as a reason to kill them, but if a person doesn't have free will, then that's a reason they should be spared; doesn't this just seem like we've created another spiritual concept, to shape based on our cultural values.

P.S. Even arguing the inverse case, it's tempting to use lack of free will as a justification for leniency; at the same time you'll be very quick to use some form of it as a reason in favor of the sanctity of life.
I was recently at a party and spent some time talking with someone who has a stealth startup working on this exact problem. He said that they aren't the first, but getting the scale right (in an industrial setting) and finances right enough that someone is willing to spend the money to set it up is far harder than just finding an enzyme that can break down PET / similar polymers.
Best Podcast on How VC Firms Work

It's simpler than that. Your thoughts -- the internal monologue deciding what actions to take -- are the result of physical processes in the brain. There is no way those non-physical thoughts are changing the physical processes; they happen after the fact. We have the illusion of being in the driver seat but really we are just along for the ride.

This is assuming you adhere only to what science can prove, and not religious beliefs like the soul.

But yeah, the fact that we are the result of past decisions and outside inputs going all the way back to before we even had consciousness at all is also a nice proof by induction.
So you review every single resume? Or do you most realistically toss out anything after say 200?
We're design the stack to be fairly flexible. It's Python/Pytorch under the hood, with the ability to plug and play various off the shelf models. For ASR we support GCP/AssemblyAI/etc, as well as a customized self-hosted version of Whisper that is tailored for stream processing. For the LLM we support fine-tuned GPT3 models, fine-tuned Google text-bison models, or locally hosted fine-tuned Llama models (and a lot of the project goes into how to do the fine-tuning to ensure accuracy and low latency). For the TTS we support Elevenlabs/GCP/etc, and they all tie into the latency reducing approaches.
I wonder when (or maybe they already have!) bad actors will target and undermine the RLHF process. Seems risky outsourcing it to poor countries where bribes can go a long way.
The default REM scaling is one of my main gripes about Tailwind.
I always thought it was so cool Figma just rendered to a canvas! Oddly enough I ran into this at my previous job doing browser isolation when we got a bug report that Figma wasn’t displaying properly in our browser.

Makes sense to switch the rest of the UI to react though, just for how many people know it.
Visualization of weight matrices can be especially helpful for architectures like DCN or FM/FFM. You can directly see feature importances which is computationally infeasible in a fully connected network for example.
I must like to live dangerously. In all seriousness though there are low cost alternatives to those mega BI tools that suit many use cases. If I wasn't rolling my own I'd probably start with Metabase or Superset. What I use: https://github.com/totalhack/zillion

> They're not exactly famous for catering to professionals

If Mac OS wasn't famous for catering to professionals for a full decade, there would not be any Apple Computers inc. Of course the point still stands that Apple is famous nowadays for its phones, but macOS is still seen by many as the golden standard in window management. That it achieves its reputation without window snapping is a detail.

> "They control 100% of the Windows market". Perhaps it was?

Kind of. The argument was that since they controlled 100% of Windows, and "coerced" people into using IE (and "coerced" is a kind way of putting it), and Windows was 90% of the desktop market, that shit was bad for everyone.

40% of the mobile market is significant, when you consider that the other 60% isn't held by a single company.
There's plenty of rhetoric about whether technology advancements will be a good thing or not. But I think that distracts from the core message, that the most important matter is not whether we use technology, but how we treat our fellow humans.

By replacing labour with robots and not compensating them, you're sending a clear message that you don't respect people and the value that they bring.

We have a mandate for us and our future generations to learn from the lessons of history and stand together as human beings to ensure that the value that we have created is respected and shared with those who created it.

We don't deserve the scraps that fall to us, we deserve a seat at the damn table.
For me, Tailwind takes away a third of the two hardest things in computer science: naming things.

Extremely useful when building out a design system for the first time.
Probably that Apple's privacy changes made those advertising channels far less effective.
In what way is it not working? You hit “IntelliPlugin” in /admin dashboard nav and hit “Generate”. Then you enter a prompt and hit “Generate Plugin”? What happens for you after that step?
Yes, I get what you want. You want to coerce everybody that brought a phone like yours into your cause, due to its sanctity.

And also, for some reason you are afraid that most people that brought that phone will refuse to join if not coerced.

That first one is morally wrong. And the second one of factually wrong.

I would be supportive of a smaller, better selected, better trained, better compensated cadre of TSA agents. I think a lot of the reason why the TSA is so ineffective, and why so much of the airport experience is just theater, comes down to the fact that it is just a jobs program for people who could not get a job guarding the local mall.

I can confirm that the catalog is less complete in YTM because back when they shut GPM I took the effort to migrate my playlists and I lost quite a few songs of them in the progress, and even more then within a year (of which YTM can't even tell me the title anymore, it's just an unavailable item)
In these discussions I often see a dichotomy between freedom and security. At the limit it's true that if you have complete control over a device, you can screw it up.

But you can have a lot more freedom without sacrificing security. For a start, you can have a web browser that supports the latest web APIs. For me, that would be enough, but you could also add a Linux VM. (Then you would have ChromeOS, basically.)
It seems like their analogy is based on one experience with Tailwind where the author was put under ridiculous constraints with Tailwind (constraints that even the author suggests is not typical Tailwind usage).

The analogy didn't reflect my experience either.
