Spare your righteous indignation. You can't suddenly act like there is a test or standard when self-id has been the rule all along, and furthermore is acceptable to change one's identity as often as desired.
> It's the act of solving the problem not the code itself that entirely matters.

I don't necessarily disagree with this, but if you just regurgitate code that a bot gives you, are you actually solving the problem? Every time I see someone post "I asked ChatGPT and it says x", it seems pretty clear to me that the poster doesn't actually understand the topic and just handed it off to the bot.

> Code is simply an unfortunate vehicle to do so.

It makes me sad that people feel this way. I got into programming because I love writing code. It's exhilarating, there's nothing I would rather do with my life. What you're saying is kind of like if you said "working with the wood is just the unfortunate vehicle for making furniture, so much the better if you can use a CNC machine". You certainly can make furniture more efficiently with tools like that, but it also sucks the joy out of the process.

Ok hang on but there aren't any old people at my software company that's 4 years old. The author didn't seem to address this possibility, despite the fact that they were writing about careers in software.
Actually, that's great in my opinion.

Assuming that semi-convincing misinformation spreads everywhere, people will finally have to find the original source of a certain statement, verify their "knowledge supply chain", and maybe use logic to evaluate every single statement made.
This. As a patient I'm terrified of this model. Big WTF?
I will never buy another Brother device. In rural areas you cannot find a service center and they are not self serviceable.

I paid $350 for a multifunction multicolor device like others are mentioning and it lasted 13-15 months before failing to power on and Brother refusing to help make it right. There was a rash of these models having this issue where it just bricks and wont turn back on so maybe they learned but they lost all goodwill with me.

Happily printing on a Canon now.

No, what you're getting at is actually exactly why the median is preferred to mean for this sort of thing. The mean is 1.something, it wouldn't round to 1, but you can see how that might happen and be undesirable in other cases.

The median selects the most 'middling' result, it's like the mode (the majority) except sorted and middled: if you had ~as many people with 0 as 2 legs (bimodal), then you'd end up with a median of 1.
They also had to accept liability. So if their space junk wrecks some other sattelite they will be super on the hook for the whole cost.

Now, most probably nothing is out there waiting to get run over by a derelict Dish bird, but if there was...
This argument isn't persuasive in the way you want it to be. If anything, it just makes people realize that the Luddites were more reasonable than they are given credit for.
It’s especially terrifying that misinformation compounds multiplicatively with AI because it happens in 2 layers - once at the retrieval layer (where AI-generated content is worsening the problem of bad SEO content) and again at the retrieval augmented generation (RAG) LLM layer.

(shameless plug) At Metaphor (https://platform.metaphor.systems/), we’re building a search engine that avoids SEO content by relying on human curation + neural embeddings for our index + retrieval algorithm. Our mission is to ensure that the information we receive is as high quality and truthful as possible as AI adoption marches onwards. You (or your LLM) can feel free to give it a try :)

I am on phone so it may be different for desktop but the button to show only installable apps can be improved to make it clear when it is pressed and when it's not.

Great domain and it looks it can become a defacto web store for apps.

Since posting this, I've discovered that IPFS has something it calls Merkle-DAGs.

A Block-Chain is a chain of blocks where there is one valid previous block and one valid next block.

A Block-Tree is a chain of blocks where there is one single valid previous block, and multiple valid next blocks.

A Block-DAG is a chain of blocks where there are multiple valid next blocks and multiple valid previous blocks, with the constraint that you can not form cycles.

They are analogues to linked-lists, trees, and directed-acyclic-graphs but with chained hashes.

From the Merkle-DAG article on the IPFS page:

> Merkle DAGs are similar to Merkle trees, but there are no balance requirements, and every node can carry a payload. In DAGs, several branches can re-converge or, in other words, a node can have several parents.

What's interesting here is that a Merkle Tree is a valid Merkle DAG, since a node can _optionally_ include a data payload. So a blockchain, a blocktree, and a blockdag are all also Merkle-DAGs. Merkle-DAG is a kind of unifying structure that can be used to model all of them.

It's really quite clever.

https://docs.ipfs.tech/concepts/merkle-dag/

This appears to have been coined in 2014: https://github.com/jbenet/random-ideas/issues/20

However the term blockchain dates back to at least 2008.

A blockchain might be a Merkle-DAG but a Merkle-DAG is not a blockchain.

It’s not rumored. It was widely reported on and many people discussed their impact publicly.

Fuchsia is shipping on real devices today (their home hubs) although yea it’s not clear why, they now have quite a few operating systems they manage.

1. Android of course. Chrome casts and phones and tablets use this.

2. Fuchsia for the home hubs.

3. ChromeOS for the chromebooks and stuff.

4. GCP probably has a cloud Linux like AWS but tbh I’m not familiar.

They’ve killed “castOS” which was a very limited Linux based system I think.

A "regular person" can:

- Bribe or compromise someone enrolled or hired at an eligible institution.

- Create a de novo eligible institution. For-profit colleges are not uncommon.

Someone motivated by profit or advantage would likely find virtually any of these options quite straightforward.

I'm ... somewhat pained that this needs to be spelled out.

You are right. I was insincere in asking for references, not really intending to read any. My response was a rant, and misdirected. I should have read what you graciously provided, and then responded thankfully, honestly and sincerely. Thanks for not letting that slide and calling me out on that (really). I'm truly sorry for being disingenuous and making false accusations about your honesty, when my own was lacking. (I guess I'm my own bad example). I (now) intend (thanks to your rebuke) to read the references you kindly provided, and I hope to respond more sincerely in this thread after doing so.

I used this over a decade ago when writing some tests involving postgres stored procedures, it's nice to be able to output a standardized format and have other tools be able to read it. Especially since at the time most of our company used perl.

junit's xml format is also similarly valuable as an interchange format and was how I set up unit test reporting on some of my first golang CI pipelines in jenkins/hudson.
Yeah, it doesn't have any of the integrated apps or any of the tab features (stacking/tiling). It does have an ad/tracker blocker built in (vs. Safari). But I use Firefox on iOS because it supports sync and Firefox is my primary desktop browser. I like Vivaldi, but not as privacy-focused as Firefox, they don't have Containers, for example, and I use that heavily.
I don't know, if you're interested I'd read more from the guy I pointed out above.

Off the top of my head, I'll say that China is making a trade-off to subsidize manufacturing at the expense of wages. This can take the form of 'malinvestment' or misallocation of capital(see the ghost cities, trains to nowhere, "Belt and Road" malinvestment, etc) which boost manufacturing in the short term while leaving little benefits in the long term. It also leaves China with weak domestic consumption so more of the GDP growth must be derived from manufacturing in order to meet CCP growth targets.

Further, the subsidies come at the expense of efficiency. For instance, China leads the world in cotton subsidies despite having 4x competing countries' costs to grow cotton. These subsidies do not necessarily translate into some future benefit for Chinese citizens.

Sorry, I was trying to make an almost pedantic point. I agree with you that deceiving the public is important to understanding what/why. However, the claim that "very large majority of the people were against it the entire time" is false, and trivially testable. 53% in favor of war means at most 47% against. 47% is not "very large majority".

Would people have been against it _conditioned on having knowledge from today that was unavailable then_? Possibly, but this hypothetical doesn't move discussion in a useful direction.

Only superficially.

You should give the Fast Weight Programmers paper a chance, and a thorough reading. It sounds like you already appreciate a fair bit of its main point.

The best part about the FWP paper is the derivation of an FWP equation from the transformer equation. It's remarkably straightforward. You remove the softmax operation (i.e. linearize) and the rest is just algebraic manipulation -- a formal proof.

Transformers are just NNs that learn to control a Content-Addressable Memory (CAM).

This perspective has far-reaching implications for ML, sort of like category theory did for metamathematics and type theory. For example, LSTM cells can be viewed as a NN that learns to control a flip-flop (the "deluxe" kind found on FPGAs, with output-enable, clock-enable, and reset inputs). I've found that this is by far the easiest way to explain LSTM to people. It also raises the obvious question of what other kinds of simple blocks can be controlled by NNs. I think this question will lead to another wave of breakthroughs.

The ultimate limit of this approach is the Gödel Machine -- although no attempt to build one has come anywhere close to success yet.
I recently committed to an old repo of mine after a 9 year gap.

It holds several one file python script experiments and toys that I lumped into one place to get them off my hdd and make them available from wherever. Recently remembered it existed and added another one. And while I was in there I also ran 2to3 on the ones that needed it and polished the results up.

On one hand, I have a hard time believing that someone who studied math (even if it was just a minor) and managed to land a job at BCG was not able to pick up basic programming.

On the other hand, good job and welcome to the club. I think this shows what many have said in the past months, that one major success of LLMs is to make consultants, business people, etc. more proficient by LLM aid.

I'm not convinced. The ASCII representation looks human readable to me, and the associated .proto definitions will make it easy to parse in any language you want. Wire format doesn't sound relevant to the plaintext representation (or am I wrong?).

I've never tried it - and I don't plan to any time soon - but it doesn't sound like a terrible idea. At least it's typed and you get a parser for free.

It’s not as bad as it sounds if you’re an unlevered hold to maturity investor. If you bought a 10 year treasury 2 years ago at a rate of return you found acceptable, you’re still going to earn that return (actually a little better), but you are just looking at a mark to market loss that will resolve itself over the next 8 years.
In that case yes I believe I envisioned it differently than you. If the text is correctly sized and in a box that's always there, where you expect information to be and doesn't block your view, I don't think that would be distracting.

Diesels idle pretty efficiently whereas jet turbines have very high minimum amounts of power.

In terms of efficiency losses between the turbine, generator, battery, and motor - no, not really; look at most modern hybrid cars.

Lithium ion battery coulombic efficiency is in the high 90's percentage-wise, by the way.

I would imagine that we might see hybrid turbine locomotives as battery power density and cost continue to improve.

Oh, I missed your comment about being able to tune some wristwatches quartz! I wasn't aware that was a thing.

Still, wouldn't the temperature of a watch while being worn vary as least as much as when sitting in a drawer (unless you live in a region blessed with t-shirt weather year around)?

One of my favorite wristwatches I used to wear as a teenager had a thermometer, but I don't remember how exactly that varied over the year, just that it always showed neither quite my body temperature, nor quite the ambient one :)
