Honestly while I have major problems with a lot of AI, specifically the political implications I don't think are actually all that bad. Specifically because if you talk to the extremists, they didn't become that way by way of convincing fake news: They became that way by extremely unconvincing fake news that suited their pre-existing prejudices. And I'm not going to both sides this in an attempt to look unbiased: there are certainly weird and shitty corners of the left, but by and large, misinformation trades on the right. Even many people on the right are aware of this, it's not a secret.

People who are racists didn't need to hear Obama call his healthcare bill Obamacare to oppose it on those grounds, even as it benefited them: and we know that because Obama never called it that. Republicans did. People who are anti-trans due to the widespread (and wrong) belief that trans-people abuse children didn't need to see trans people abusing children, they needed to be told it was happening by a figure they trusted. People who hear the call phrases like "cultural marxism" have no idea what the hell that means, beyond "the things I don't like" and the thing that it's being attached to, if it isn't within their Things I Don't Like set currently, will be added to it with little thought or consideration for why it's there.

Why all this happens is a larger topic that we don't really have the space here for and I'm probably already skirting HN's rules on politics pretty hard so I'll digress and just say: bigots are bigots, they were bigots before they heard whatever talking head they like say whatever really inappropriate and disgusting thing that they are now parroting, and now they're just a bigot that has that new thing to say. And humans are excellent at motivated reasoning: once they've decided a thing, like that Democrats eat babies to attain eternal life, you will be hard pressed to make them understand that they don't. It's probably why a lot of these same people also trend very well in religion: there's a subset of humanity that just really likes the idea of nice sounding bullshit that confirms whatever bullshit they heard before, and if you're willing to feed it to them, you can parlay that into attention and eventually, money.

While I certainly oppose the use of AI tools being used to generate photorealistic evidence of Biden consuming babies on the weekend, and it will almost certainly be used for that, I have a hard time seeing that as really changing the field at all. There is a huge, huge section of the populace that would already believe that and having it rendered in perfect HD video would... certainly be upsetting, but in the age we're in, if you're aware that AI video can be created that way, to that quality, you would already assume this is a forgery, unless you were motivated enough to resist that thought. At which point it doesn't matter, it could be VHS quality that looked like it was taped next to a rare earth magnet and transmitted through a fun house mirror room, and Biden had seventeen fingers: you'd still believe it.
I don't think you have to tell that to people on HN, but regular people will not be able to use most password managers. Not even 1Password is really user-friendly and it's the most mainstream one.

In the War Against Russia, Ukrainian Andrey Liscovich Carries a Shopping List
#include <stdio.h>

int main(){
int same=0;

Tried the above. Ptr moved 7 times and is reused 9993 times.

Not sure how that counters the assertion that Musk doesn't care about legality, though.
Rolled your own direnv?
Sure. My response is to someone upthread who claimed Musk scoped his criticism to "censorship he disliked"; I'm pointing out he claimed to dislike basically all censorship, making that a meaningless distinction.
Nobody thinks anything is getting "padded" with sales tax other than Europeans who have never heard of the practice before and can't get over the fact that ~5% (the median US sales tax is 5.1%) wasn't disclosed as if that is making their breakfast unaffordable.

You're never required to tip so the "advertised price" and the price at the register are identical. You choosing to leave $2 on top of that doesn't change anything, even if it's only done through social pressure.

I'm lazy, so it's 99% for me. I don't even mess with AMD CPUs; I know they're not exactly the same instruction set as Intel, and more importantly they work with a different (and less mainstream) set of mobos, so I don't want em. If AMD manages to pull more customers their way, that's great, it just means lower Intel premium for me.

> Twitter may be dying for hackernews, but is it alive for other communities?

Probably depends on the community. The non-tech people I know have almost entirely abandoned Twitter. Those who still use it use it far less than they used to.
It's the user's data, its not on 23andme to baby the user. If the user wants to trade ease of login with risk of getting hacked, that's not 23andme's fault.
I think it's less about the Fed and more about the erosion of workers' bargaining power in the form of declining union membership and maybe more large employers who can push wages down due to labor market monopsony.
You can say the same thing about professional athletes. Sure, there are bench players in the NBA that would love to start for the Warriors for half of what Steph Curry makes, and they'd probably do a pretty good job. They're amazing basketball players after all. They're likely in the top 1,000 basketball players in the whole world. But they are probably not going to lead the Warriors to a championship. In some situations it's worth paying for that extra little bit of skill+talent.

I'm not sure if that small margin matters for running a major HMO, but I could imagine it does. And that small margin might just be having connections and friends. Maybe having those connections and friends is that extra value proposition that a good CEO brings.

First, this is a cool project and I'm glad they're doing it, for the people who want this thing.

However, I see it as combining the main downsides of film and digital. The reason most people shoot film these days is the look that film gives the image which digital just can't seem to reproduce. People shoot modern digital cameras primarily because of the huge amount of features and improvements over film cameras. This gives you neither.

The main reason I can see for someone to want one of these is that you really want to shoot using a film body but you don't want to pay for or deal with the hassle of film. I wonder how many people that's actually going to end up being when this ships.
That's a dangerous game. There is nothing a fake could say, no matter how ridiculous, that wouldn't convince somebody that the real person said it. Maybe they believe the politician already kicks puppies, maybe they hear what they think is a "reasonable" (yet still wrong) interpretation instead, or maybe they're just stupid. Doesn't matter, because now they're going to play telephone with their friends and family about the stupid thing the politician didn't actually say.

Even if it works, what's the upside? Now your brand is associated with negativity and people are thinking "maybe they didn't say that, but why take the risk? X is a safer bet".

Automakers have put plenty of subscription features on other cars for 20+ years. There's plenty of OEM-only parts and proprietary tooling needed for traditional vehicles, automakers don't need EVs for that. EVs need fewer parts thrown at them generally speaking... and automakers known for making vehicles with shorter lifespans do not have a good track record for financial success.

Besides, I'm not sure there even was much of a push for EVs among traditional automakers. Most have been very hesitant to offer EVs and those that do have only done so lately after seeing Tesla eat away at their market share.
But what percentage of employees, even in unskilled jobs, are being paid minimum wage in each of those locations? The floor may be misleading.
> You’re not legally obligated to tip so I’m not sure how it would be abolished.

You legally require it be removed from receipts and PoS systems, and mandate that all tips be taken by the venue rather than going to the workers (or at minimum be distributed evenly between all workers).

A decade or so ago, there was some talk of it eventually being banned by he Supreme Court due to it being de-facto racial discrimination in pay.

Sure, you can always slip them something under the table, but right now it's mostly an official, sanctioned part of their pay.
When coding using Vulkan, for graphics or compute (The latter is the relevant one here), you need to have CPU code (Written in C++, Rust etc), then serialize it as bytes, then have shaders which run on the graphics card. This 3-step process creates friction, much in the same way as backend/serialization/frontend does in web dev. Duplication of work, type checking not going across the bridge, the shader language being limited etc.

My understanding is CUDA's main strength is avoiding this. Do you agree? Is that why it's such a big deal? Ie, why this article was written, since you could always do compute shaders on AMD etc using Vulkan.

These are literally the very circumstances that we were presented with as reason why executive compensation is astronomical. It's all that responsibility they have to assume in times like these, right? They're supposed to fall on their sword, and whoever replaces them is supposed to make damn sure shit like this doesn't happen on their watch. The pay and parachutes ensure they land on their feet.

The reason nothing ever changes is because these clowns never get in trouble. If you want that $10M salary, you better make sure everyone under you is doing their part to ensure events like this don't happen-- or you get dethroned.

Does China still sell melamine-tainted baby formula? We've been conditioned to just let our leaders stay in command after plowing into icebergs-- while they blame and execute the engineers shoveling coal below deck.

It would be interesting to see what digital photos would look like if it was nothing but you and the subject and the lens, with no intermediate processing. Without Samsung drawing a fake moon and whatnot.
What it needs is a hierarchy of evidence. This works almost unreasonably well right now because I guess we're lucky that more digitized text than not is largely true, or RLHF is just that effective, but at some point, I would think the learner has to understand that reading a chemistry textbook and reading Reddit have equal weight when it comes to learning how to construct syntactically well-formed sentences with human-intelligble semantic content, but don't have equal weight with respect to factual accuracy.
Yeah, but that's neither desktop Linux or a Linux experience
I was at a restaurant the other day and on the bottom of the menu it said "a 2.5% tip will be added to all transactions to help us pay our staff" and all I could think was why can't they just add a dollar to some/all of the menu items instead? If a restaurant needs more money to pay its employees, they should just charge more money. I really don't get it.

Dealing with this professionally for DNNs. It just doesn't work. The large, important DNN models are so complicated, the toolchains for optimized execution don't do sane things unless you do some sort of vertical integration. The community tried with things like TVM, Halide, ONNX and others .. it is just crazy if you don't have a fully opinioned pipeline. Just my personal opinion.
It would be far more brutal to just limit all textareas to 30 characters and let the user suffer.
Not much more, though. Banks trying to offload their Twitter debts were only getting offers that valued the company at less than $8B.

Nope. PyTorch is not enough, you have to do come C++ occasionally (as the code there can be optimized radically, as we see in llama.cpp and the like). ROCm is unusable compared to CUDA (4x more code for the same problem).

I don't understand why everyone neglects good, usable and performant lower-level APIs. ROCm is fast, low-level, but much much harder to use than CUDA, and the market seems to agree.
> Specifically because if you talk to the extremists, they didn't become that way by way of convincing fake news: They became that way by extremely unconvincing fake news that suited their pre-existing prejudices.

If it all it did was agree with pre-existing prejudices, that's not how they got that way.

And, IME, post political extrenists didn't get that way from fake news at all, but the problem with convincint fake news (whether AI is involved or not) isn’t that it creates extremists or otherwise influences ideology, but the reactions it creates in people applying their non-extremist ideology through the lens of false factual premises.

> Anyway, the point is that the halting procedure in its full generality cannot exist, while each individual busy beaver number can be solved in theory (even if there’s no algorithm that can list them all).

I don't understand this point at all. Busy beaver lets you solve halting and vice-versa. If there are some special cases in which you can solve busy beaver then you can use them to solve halting.

Each individual busy beaver number can't be solved in theory for the same reason that the halting problem can't - if you try to check all n-state Turing machines to compute BB(n) some of them won't halt, and some of those you won't be able to prove that they don't halt.
No, I am actually reading OpenAI's PDF linked here, where they say they make a copy of the online corpa to train on, right at the top of page 2:

> By analyzing large corpora (which necessarily involves first making copies of the data to be analyzed

Whether they retain that later is immaterial to whether copyright infringement occurred. Deleting a movie you illegally downloaded after you watch (train on) it doesn't make it legal.

Huh ?

UPI (the payment system) is loved in India, that along with other systems.

Have significantly reduced corruption in getting the rural farmers and people in need, access to funds that government allocates to them.

Previously it would get stolen by middleman or corrupt politicians, leaving only 10% or sometimes 0% of the original amount meant for them.

Now with this system and their introduced zero balance accounts for all, cash gets distributed directly to their biometrically linked accounts.

Not everyone are programmers who only care about freedom from misuse of tech, and liberal cash use.

These are millions of people being helped by a system where cash was used to fraudulently steal the funds that was rightly meant for them.

Its one of the most praised improvements done by government of India in years. Most people here will have something to complain about the government, but almost all of them, agree that this has made people’s lives better.

These are instruments after all, it is people who do bad things, they do bad things with cash, and when you replace it with centralized digital money, they’ll do bad things with that too.

Nothing different, except now its more advantageous (atleast for the time being).

That would mean even more ringing in voters' ears (i.e. getting more phone calls). Which doesn't solve the problem – it makes it worse.
Yes but the guideline about 'original title' doesn't mean that. That's the editorialized title, not the original title of the thing. What you're suggesting is misconstruing the guideline to mean the opposite of what it actually means.
