I personally think mathematical analogies (in particular, strong and [Knuthian] weak components) are more productive ways to think about these issues instead of attempting to drag in physical analogies, but YMMV.
I see Influx pop up a lot in communities like Home Assistant for doing time series data collection. I'm using Postgres for that myself (not a great experience but I knew that when I was too lazy to find alternatives during setup) but people seem very pleased with its performance.

I imagine similar dashboard services that don't necessarily work well in Prometheus are a good market for these types of databases. Prometheus is nice, but I don't think it's suitable for all Influx use cases (and vice versa).
I find it interesting how legislation is used to effect privileged classes of transportation and transportation owners.

Stealing is a crime almost everywhere, but in the old west, horse theft was a hanging crime. Similarly, motor vehicle theft carries a more severe penalty than stealing a bicycle of equivalent value.

The shoes remain as mismatched when they swap feet: Killing someone with a motor vehicle, sober or drunk, typically carries less severe consequences than doing it with your bare hands.

I'm not entirely sure your statements are correct in today's landscape. I run models both on a M1 chip and 3090. The token generation are about the same if I use huggingface transformers on the 3090 or llama.cpp on the M1 with the same quantization (4 bit, I don't have enough RAM to run 8 bit on the M1). Most major local LLM libraries support Metal. I know you can use MPS backend on huggingface transformers but I have not tried it since llama.cpp (Ollama to be more specific) works great on a M1 to begin with.
Dark matter is largely an instrumentation problem. The universe is very big, and direct observation of individual objects is largely limited by distance/luminosity, which is problematic when you are looking for lots of old dark stars very far away. The history of astronomy is largely a process of deriving estimates of new phenomena from
what we can observe, and thus underestimating the significance until a better instrument comes along (as at first we only can see the larger objects, which often results in undercounting).

Dark energy is partly instrumental, but largely a theoretical gap in understanding. God only knows what is going on there.

> There is approx zero chance that you can get a homeless person to do labor for 20 minutes, let alone the 2-5 hours this would actually take.

And yet homeless people do labor. In fact routine living often requires much, much, much more labor when homeless, than when housed.

They even have jobs. I worked when I was homeless (but was fired when they found out). That was long ago. Since then it's more difficult to find work; job portals erased most job opportunities. Of the few folks willing to give you work, you have a segment who take advantage and act in bad faith.
GameStop's price didn't skyrocket because of a short squeeze. That was the story that kicked off the bubble, but there's little evidence it was true.

https://www.sec.gov/files/staff-report-equity-options-market...

>Figure 6 shows that the run-up in GME stock price coincided with buying by those with>
short positions. However, it also shows that such buying was a small fraction of overall buy volume, and that GME share prices continued to be high after the direct effects of covering short positions would have waned. The underlying motivation of such buy volume cannot be determined; perhaps it was motivated by the desire to maintain a short squeeze. Whether driven by a desire to squeeze short sellers and thus to profit from the resultant rise in price, or by belief in the fundamentals of GameStop, it was the positive sentiment, not the buying-to-cover, that sustained the weeks-long price appreciation of GameStop stock.

What really happened is that some people on Reddit bought up a bunch of GameStop stock and went around convincing other people to buy it by telling them an appealing but false story. If done deliberately, that's called a pump-and-dump. Dumb money attracts smart money, so there were definitely some wolves among the sheep.

There’s a good point to be made that Russia could probably beat the US in conflicts that are not existential. Simply because if Russia loses men at a rate of 50:1, the US could still find those losses unpalatable enough to concede whatever context the fight is over. Even if the US would obviously win eventually. Especially if Russia or whoever was running successful disinformation campaigns. But also… we are so close to another inflection point which is fully autonomous drones that can navigate by computer vision to pre determined or opportunistically chosen targets without dependence on things that make them vulnerable like GPS and remote control.

Drones are a big deal but these drones would have basically no counter

Frankly I’m confused why we don’t have these things for big static targets like a drone that independently navigates to a rail line, drops a mine and leaves for the train to blow up next time it shows up.

To be fair you can do all that from Bing Chat too(image/voice recognition and generation). And plugins are coming to it too.

The downsides with Bing currently are:

1. If you're not prepared to be civil to a language model, you're not going to have a good time.

2. The image input feature isn't quite the same. Feels like descriptions are bolted in from a separate (GPT-4 V unless the Bing CTO was lying) model so it's lossy in a way straight from GPT-4 V isn't

3. Voice recognition and TTS are good but worse than what Open AI is currently using. Perhaps they'll switch since the TTS is new ? But idk. It's also not hands off like Open AI have designed their implementation.

Dark matter is just a theory hallucinated by computational models. It is and has always been defined as nothing but "where matter could be to explain the gap between model and data" but no good reason is ever given as to why it could be matter and not anything else. You can do the same thing with the solar system to "explain" a geocentric universe if you wanted.

The social flow of prompting together with other people is unique when it happens. (Sadly the channels on the main server are now mostly a flood of random people who are ignoring each other.)
The sense of knowing where a character is in a space in fiction is the same sense that is used to visualize anything else. It is the same phenomenon. If you can "know" where a fictional character is in a fictional space, you can also "know" how a fictional apple looks like, or how a fictional coffee smells.

How or where do you hold the knowing of the location of the fictional character? Look at that psychic phenomenon. Aphantasia seems like not knowing what psychic operations one does all the time, while someone who can visualize can consciously use these psychic operations.

A perfect example of my favourite part of any "class warfare" talk. Even for the "capital" class, the system isn't necessarily in their favour.

Except this happens with every product OpenAI has released. Their own homegrown versions always have more features or are less hamstrung.

I did not mention or claim proof or proves. Only math can prove anything, because it has formal methods (inference rules) applied to assumptions (axioms). The proof is always contingent on the rules and the axioms.

Science approaches truth as an asymptote, which gets ever closer, but can never be reached (see Zeno). Science denies the possibility of claiming truth. Every theory is open to falsification, then revision, qualification or abandonment.

Science is the rigorous and rational application of doubt.

It's doubt all the way down.

Doubt is the only truth.

“Afterwards search will be linear along child[0]”

Yes, I thought this was clear from my statement.

“Rotation would not make a difference”

It would. The offsets generated by the hash would repeat every 32 shifts, but the absolute addresses given in the collision cases are a random construction based on the history of the tree at that point, so despite the offsets’ repeating, the tree’s invariants along the lookup are likely to be preserved.
> Depending on which part of my social circle one would talk about 10% would have been far too few.

Depending on which part of the pizza you take, it's not going to have any pepperoni. In other words, if you intentionally take a non-representative sample, unsurprisingly your sample is not going to be representative. I don't really see the point you're trying to make.

10% of Germans cannot be weekly churchgoers when there's at most ~4 million weekly attendees overall. It's obviously impossible. A number lower than 5%, preferably ~1-2%, I can easily square away with that number and my own, not intentionally cherry-picked, sample.

And much harder to pack and ship. You could probably fit 1000 cardboard beds in the same volume of a cargo hold as 100 metal cots. Also, there are many local shops who already have the tools to mass-produce cardboard boxes with arbitrary shapes; the same cannot be said of cots.

The banking system in 1970 was much more labor-intensive. This was before ATMs and online banking, or even computers — a small local bank in Ireland probably didn't have an IBM mainframe at that time.

So there were clerks and cashiers at every level pushing paper, crunching numbers, handling cash. These people were clearly working class, not the later Wall Street image conjured by the word "banker".

Maybe others can answer this naive question that I have: how do we know that e=mc^2 actually has the correct number of variables? E.g. what if either mass or light speed were composites of some other variables? Say that light speed really had a directional component or a distance from the Big Bang component? Or mass was itself a composite of particles and the forces acting in the nucleus?

Wouldn’t some additional term here be a plausible way of explaining discrepancies in the observable vs predicted universe?
That's kinda what top parent comment is talking about though. Money doesn't matter when you only have one choice. Enterprise can ONLY buy Nvidia cards so money really doesn't matter in this case.
