But internal processes determine the results, and being able to (somewhat) predict them is arguably an important basis of human interactions and by extension society.

You're essentially saying that theory of mind is either pointless or does not exist; scientific and just observational day-to-day evidence says otherwise.

> real distinctions manifest in results

Yes, but only in some situations. If the situation is a test, a significantly specialized and/or advanced intelligence will be able to cheat it and be able to conceal its internal distinctions.
Ask HN: What's the state of consumer ML with AMD GPUs?
This is only for fun and learning purpose. I'm hesitating between the AMD RX7600 (60e cheaper) and the RTX 4060. The price alone would make me pick AMD as on the gaming side, the cards are basically the same. But I'd like to learn some ML stuff and I know CUDA is more mature. Anyone doing machine learning with consumer AMD GPUs? How is it?

Related to rust, one thing I'd love to see semver clarify is that if you do what rust does, where you just make up your own rules and then claim you use semver, you're not using semver. If the scheme is major.minor.patch with 0.x.y meaning "not semver yet, the numbers can mean whatever someone wants them to", and something like rust goes "we use semver, except we've changed what the numbers mean", then the text on semver.org should have already made it clear that that's simply not using semver, and any claims that you are, are invalid.

It's not semver until you hit 1.0.0 and start following the major.minor.patch system. Until then, your promise to your users is that your use of 0.* indicates a prerelease, and that once 1.0.0 comes out, the version numbers will reflect major.minor.patch changes.

(and the unwillingness of some people who assign some special meaning to "reaching 1.0", somehow treating that number as more than a number, should literally be the sign that they don't want to use semver. It'd be great if the spec/site had a big, bold, "you are not your version number" that makes it clear that version numbers are intended for versioning, and that semver numbers are a utility. They don't hold special meaning beyond unambiguously denoting major.minor.patch transitions)
If Amazon did that, sales would drop to zero and retailers would leave Amazon. eCommerce is a low-margin business. Sellers will only stay on Amazon as long it's profitable for them.

In python I mostly code in functional style. Even then types helps me a lot. I make a lot of typos or get the order of arguments wrong. Typing helps me a lot here especially when I'm doing ML. The last thing I want is my training code to crash after it spent 30nmins processing the data. I find pythons gradual typing a really good middle ground for quick prototyping and the type annotate functions once they are mature enough
I am extremely confused by this article.

Rancid oil of any kind is foul and disgusting. You'd gag if you tried to eat something made with it.

Yet this article says things like:

> Rancidity, for example, isn’t generally a sought after quality in edible products. And yet, when it comes to olive oil in the U.S., people like it. Why? Partly, because rancid olive oil is less bitter than the good stuff.

Is this article using some definition of "rancid" different from the rest of us?

I totally get that some people don't like really fruity flavorful spicy olive oil. They want something more neutral. And that's fine.

But nobody in their right mind is picking something rancid. Nor would a supermarket ever sell it.

So I can't tell if the author doesn't know what rancid actually means, or if there's some separate food science definition of rancid that is different from everyday use -- but that the article doesn't bother to acknowledge or explain.
here's a tldr why race matters in the context of the neshoba county fair:

this is the same county where chaney, schwerner, and goodman were murdered. at the fair that year, the kkk dropped pamphlets from an airplane in response to their murder. clearly targeting the fair audience. this was during the freedom summer of 1964 if you know what that is?

ronald reagan did a presidential campaign speech at the fair. a presidential candidate speaking there was unheard of at the time, but he was clearly following the "southern strategy". he proclaimed his belief in states rights, which has been a dog whistle since the civil war. the fair is a popular place for dog whistle political speeches.

there are racial dynamics about who is allowed at the fair. none of the cabins are owned by black people. the owners of cabins are largely the ruling class in mississippi. during the day, spaces within the fair are segregated. most black people at the fair are workers or horse racers, etc.

there are more reasons why race matters, but i have to work. you should read the article.
How is that different from static typing?
You could probably imagine the possibility of state actors and Intel, for example, conspiring to backdoor AES instructions of specific targets. Maybe possible with the IME. Not accusing them of this, but it's not out of the realm of possibility. The only things using the AES instructions are important data needing to be encrypted.

On the other hand, trying to backdoor XOR would give you an astronomically higher amount of white noise. Finding important data mixed in with all the other things a computer XORs would be much harder.
In that situation, I'd just prefer to buy the DVD instead of this subscribe-then-unsubscribe thing these companies end up incentivizing.
Do you mean that the oxidized oils will have less (or none) of the health benefits that the fresh oils would?
McCarthy had a chance to do that and came out saying he would not be willing to give Dems anything at all to save his job. Right now the GOP agenda is 100% anti-liberal politics. The impeachment hearings taking place with no credible evidence is exhibit A. Advocating a government shutdown is the other. Dems basic ask would just be "can we debate some actual legislation" and the answer from the right has consistently been "no". The GOP have a 9 vote majority, 1 of them is under indictment and 10 completely unreasonable maniacs who just want to cause chaos. It's crazy but the only plausible option I see right now is for 10 GOP moderates to back Hakeem Jeffries.
Exactly. Who you marry is 100% within your control. It can still fail, but you aren't setting yourself up for failure at least.
I think it’s just a path a lot of developers have traveled, starting with JavaScript and moving to TypeScript. If you’ve gone through that pipeline than you probably feel very strongly about the benefits that TypeScript provides and it’s the fulcrum for your opinion on static vs dynamic typing

Too many web developers, basically, I don’t think the conflation is intentional
While it may not be as simple as changing a SKU, Amazon is chock full of products made in the same factory, many with identical product images, sold under different brands at different prices, and many of the "brands" are the output of name-generators.

That actually adds to the problem: If you put effort and money into brand recognition you need to provide best prices on amazon, but Amazon is easier to game if your brand is xyxxy12345.

I don't understand why you would "Break-Up" Amazon? Why can't we just have common rules that says "Hey, we will fine you $50M a day you continue to do X,Y,Z?". Then we have precedence and law to back up doing monopolistic things.

Big yawn. I'm comparatively old and have programmed computers for a long, long time as one of those unfashionable "dark matter developers." What a lot of people see as unassailable truths I see as fads. Just as an example, I've never had to go wild about types. One day I will set aside some time to see if they're worth the overhead, but chances are I will not be a convert.

Only this toolchain will be used because it is the only one that makes sense. Everything will be so much easier if it we just did it in the functional style. Large programming projects can't exist without Agile (I've actually heard someone say this). J++! X Will Eat The World. No comments! Verbose comments! If we got the whole team on this one editor, imagine the synergy. Silverlight will take over the interactive web.

If types turn into a big deal and remain that way say, fifteen years from now, then it is probably a Good Idea But Not Strictly Necessary. Whatever it is people are so bound up about, it is likely that programming used to happen without it.

The only constants we have in programming are variables.
Unless it's a protected class you can refuse to do business with anyone for any reason. Plenty of supreme court cases on this.
> Javascript are still quite slow, inconsistent and memory inefficient outside of trivial benchmarks.

I thought this meme was dead already. Of course, you might not be able to squeeze out the same amount of performance compared to a brilliantly written C or Rust program, but for what it is, JavaScript is pretty damn fast already.

DOM manipulation on the other hand, is still a very common bottleneck people come across when writing typical JavaScript code.
CUTLASS, which is NVIDIA’s C++ template library for writing matrix multiply and convolution kernels parametrized over input/output types, operators, and algorithm block sizes, theoretically supports this. But, each input of the (k, n) shaped matrix B will be read from global memory ceil(n / block dimension) times in an algorithm that computes one (block dimension, block dimension) submatrix of the output matrix D per thread block. It will probably be more efficient to cast your B matrix to FP16 or INT8 lower precision in a preprocessing kernel to reduce memory traffic in the matrix multiply kernel.

On newer GPUs, though, we have this huge L2 cache which makes the calculus a little different if your working set fits into it. e.g. Ampere A100 has 40MB L2$.

> There’s nothing inherently wrong with liking rancid olive oil. There is, however, a problem with thinking you’re buying extra virgin and getting low-quality oil instead. For starters, because extra virgin oil is harder to make, it commands higher prices.

But most people are buying extremely cheap olive oil. The "extra virgin" designation does not seem to be strongly associated with price in grocery stores. What is associated with price is the "made in Italy" label, compared to oils made in countries near Italy, or even California. And it's such a sharp price difference that relatively few people are buying authentic Italian EVOO anyway—3x or 4x as much, in my estimation.

Most people are buying big jugs of olive oil from, e.g., Turkey, and they're totally fine with it. They don't taste the difference, as the article notes. So, if there's nothing inherently wrong with rancid olive oil, and people are getting a year's supply for $20 already, then what exactly is the problem?
Possibly never, because security. NAT at least tries to hide insecure IoT device on your grandma's wifi.

shodan.io has support for ipv6. With ipv4 you're somewhat restricted to devices that get public ip (corporate networks) or devices that drill a hole (uPnP/port forward). IPv6 devices are publicly visible by default and you need to manually setup firewall to filter this out (not trivial - especially for UDP and ICMP)
TIL. I thought it meant that it had not been purified (more of the "olive" still present in the oil).
Good olive oil is as complex as good wine or coffee can be. I recommend going to an olive oil shop and doing a guided tasting of a few different olive oils.

Testing is a bandaid that only pretends to show that your code is correct.

Static verification (what includes static types) is the real deal.

That said, WTF is there with people insisting that types must be either static or dynamic, and that dynamic types are useless?
Show HN: Phoenix OSS – Applying LLM Spans, Traces, and Evals for AI Insights
We are the developers of Phoenix, which we released in April of this year with a goal of bringing LLM observability to the notebook. In the time since, the growth of LLM frameworks and complex agent workflows led us to add support for LLM spans and traces and introduce a simple Eval harness for testing the data from those spans.

The latest Traces & Spans release of Phoenix offers:
-Out of the box tracing for LlamaIndex and LangChain
-Fully local execution, no data sent anywhere, outside of your own LLM calls
-Ability to get a common dataframe format across frameworks back to a notebook for Evals
-Code based LLM Eval harness: light, simple, and fast
-Benchmarking scripts for retrieval setup - chunk size, K, and retrieval approach

https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix

We love to hear more from the community about what kind of LLM applications you are building, whether you are using a framework or building from scratch, and how are you running/measuring LLM Evals today. Thinking a lot about what “non-framework” integrations look like.

Also genuinely interested in people's opinions of LLM spans and traces versus OTEL. Is the divergence because of something intrinsic to the application or as a community are we reinventing the wheel?

Technically the certificate issues are separate from the protocol versioning. It's just that clients that don't support TLS 1.2 often also don't support sha2 certificates or may not have a path to validate certificates from currently available CAs (although you can usually push through that; no protocol support and no cert signature support is not a user bypass prompt)

As a side note, barely anything supports TLS 1.1 but not TLS 1.2
This is a whole vibe when working with an ML language. I usually start at the bottom of the call stack and add the property I need to the signature of that function, then I can just follow "hey, you're calling it wrong—where is argument xyz?" errors up to the top of the stack. Classic bop mode.

On one hand, it is wrong to limit people’s opinions to be discussed and talked about, and I am sure there are a lot of issues when it comes to Canadian politics, economics, etc. On the other hand, since probably around 2014, we have a lot of grifters surfaced online who are only interested in monetizing their content with no integrity or accountability, across the whole political spectrum. So I don’t know how to feel about this.

dockerd should be the only process running if no other containers are running.

You can also have containers use host-mode networking (share's the host's NICs instead of using bridged networking via virtual NICs) if local IP address pollution is a concern.

Kata is just a container runtime. Depending on how they implement their network and storage drivers, functionality should be mostly the same.

This looks like great work, and I am really hoping work on this continues!
It's to do with the pressing, not the harvest. AFAIK the first press of the olives is EVOO and after that they have other ways of extracting remaining oils (e.g. Pomace is a semi-chemical process on the remaining pulp)

So? Much of the evidence in most criminal trials is circumstantial. For example fingerprints and DNA are circumstantial evidence.

Direct evidence is evidence that directly links a person to a crime, which for the most part means testimony of a person who claims to have personal knowledge of the crime. Evidence that requires making inferences to get from the evidence to the crime is circumstantial.

A good non-criminal example of direct vs. circumstantial evidence would be if you were trying to prove that it snowed last night and you found someone who said that they woke up at 3 AM and looked out a window and saw it snowing. That would direct evidence because you have someone who claims to have personal knowledge that what you are trying to prove happened actually happened.

If instead of a witness who actually saw the snowfall you had a person who testified that there was no snow on the ground when they went to bed but when they woke up in the morning there was snow that would be circumstantial evidence.

From that testimony you do have direct evidence that there was snow on the ground in the morning, but you have to make inferences if you are trying to prove that snow fell during the night and so that evidence is circumstantial for proving that.
Go do google next!
ah, very cool. TIL.
I certainly think different theories have different degrees of plausibility, but all conspiracy theories do have a few things in common that help define them.

The one that strikes me is that they all start with a conclusion they want to reach and selectively choose/interpret evidence in a way that supports that conclusion.
