>And it seemingly takes an act of god to get it to appear (you can't just hover, you have to two-finger scroll first)

It's supposed to show up by just doing a two finger tap. It works in native apps. For some reason chrome doesn't respect this though, I think because maybe they reimplement some part of it on their own.
This is what I would usually do as well, self-MiTM and analyze the traffic, reverse engineer from there.
It would be great if you could pop up and show the meaning of a word when we tap the word. Right now, a full-screen page shows up, and it has tons of detail. Even for looking at the meaning of 'you,' it provides a lot of description. I would like to contribute, I liked the project. Congratulations.

Edit: Do not misunderstand me, all of the descriptions are great! But if I need it, I should be able to use it.
It's called Section Control.
The difference is cars aren't comparable to phones anymore. They're already way more capable than phones with always on cameras with sonar and radar mapping in multiple directions, always on mics for voice commands, and even continuous driver face scanning.

Those are also things that are also usually logged, those are things most people probably don't want to be continuously uploaded and recklessly exposed.
> A conspiracy theory of that time was that Bush was behind 9/11 because he wanted a causus belli to shore up his tanking popularity in the leadup to his re-election.

It's not just unsubstantiated, it's flatly wrong on its face. Bush had been in office less than 9 months. He wasn't anywhere close to re-election. This is when the next race typically didn't ramp up until the year of the election.
why did the revolution happen?
Of course the communism part worried them but they already started thinking about it after losing control over the iranian oil.
Humans have evolved to communicate based on some sort of shared mental model and shared intentionality—human speech generally has some sort of more-or-less coherent semantics by its very nature. While it's hard to reason about what goes on inside the neural network, there are too many examples of LLMs outputting not-even-wrong nonsense to conclude they have a similar internal model, even assuming that having an internal model at all would make sense in this context!
> Language models (the computation) "care" about making "correct" predictions

Predictions of what? LLMs aren't predicting anything. They are, as the GP says, generating text that appears to be fluent and coherent (as long as we don't inquire into actual semantic relationships with anything else) in the context of the prompt.
Mathjax can output MathML, actually. It's as easy as linking to tex-mml.js
Not really. Only that reading logs by human or even grepping "manually" is super inefficient where you can make a script that will for instance send you a notification when someone actually logs into your VPS.

In world where "login attempts" are basically all day reality reading logs is meaningless. In 2023 no one should be reading logs you should have alerts on events. In 1995 or something if someone was trying to brute-force your user password that was security event to look at and block IP. In 2023 someone brute-forcing is not an event, it is either wrong configuration like not using ssh authentication or not using tools that filter logs automatically and make alerts when something is actually going on.

Did it seem like the “right” thing to do at the time, or just the thing that would allow us more access to oil at the expense of everyone in the future
I honestly can't tell if we're agreeing or disagreeing at this point. I agree that all of those things are problems and I would welcome some reasonable legislation to protect people's privacy regardless of the particular vector. But none of that makes cars not a privacy nightmare, regardless of it not being unique to them.

I have my car (Subaru) hooked to an automation with home assistant. Several, actually. I can start the car in winter by pushing a button in my kitchen, heat it up, and then walk there. But the most important one is that I can turn the car off remotely as well, based on timers and automations.

Availability is a key part of security. When Apple can trivially authenticate that this man is the legitimate owner of the device, given he:

1: Bought it
2: Possesses it

I’m not sure how “But it’s not him linked with the Apple ID” is a legitimate reason not to assume him the owner pending any evidence to the contrary. If the man had his laptop stolen by somebody at the post office, who set it up with their own Apple ID, does Apple just shrug its shoulders and go “lol how is this our problem buy another Mac XD”.

Going through an onboarding process does not actually prove ownership, at all. I don’t believe what Apple is doing is actively illegal but it sure smacks of bureaucratic ineptitude.
I'm not sure you're helping here, given such a description also fits Hamas or drug cartels very well…
You're right, just tried it & worked. But I imagine they'll "fix" this pretty soon.
And then there's people in the comments saying it would be cheaper without Music bundled in. I'm willing to argue Music is by design baked in so they just advertise it as extra to look good. I use both. I had YT playlists long before Music was a thing. When they bundled it with Premium it was a no-brainer. I still have my youtube-dl scripts syncing music for offline though .. just in case.
co-founder here! thanks for the kind words.

I am also excited for another alternative, that feels modern!
AI hallucinations are the opposite of creativity. They give the most obvious wrong answer possible. For example, ask an AI about an unknown basketball player, it will probably describe it at fit and tall, because that's how we expect basketball players to be. That may be a good observation, but certainly not creativity.

If instead it told the story of someone short and obese, with details on how he got to play basketball, that would be creative. Of course, you can ask an AI to tell the story of a short and obese basketball player, and it will tell you a likely story for such a player, but again that's not creativity, it is just the AI filling the blanks based on whatever similar stories it had in its training set.
> humans aren't "optimized" to be correct either

Humans at least have a concept of "being correct", even if we don't always set that as our primary goal when communicating.

LLMs don't even have a concept of "being correct". That would require having a concept of an "external world" that text refers to, which LLMs don't have. All they have is the text in their training data.
The problem, broadly defined:

You have and use and love NixOS.

NixOS handles installing programs and their dependencies.

But more importantly perhaps, it makes the recipes for such installation reproducible -- that is, a recipe for such production will reproduce that same environment on other machines.

That's what Nix is and does, basically.

But now let's add a language-related (sub)installer (like Python's 'pip', Node's 'npm', or Rust's 'cargo') -- to the mix...

If we use one of those on NixOS to install a module/library/sub-dependency -- guess what?

We may have just broken our Nix guaranteed reproducible environment!

That's because Nix -- is unaware of what that (sub)installer (AKA "Package Manager") installed!

That's also because what that (sub)installer installed may vary from one creation/instantiation of the environment on one machine, to the next, and/or if it was invoked at different points in time!

So the goal here (AFAIK and it's a difficult, challenging goal!) -- is to make Nix aware of what a (sub)installer is/has installed, and bring that information into Nix such that a reproducible environment in Nix can still be guaranteed, even when a language-related (sub)installer like 'pip', 'npm', 'cargo' and others, are used!

Is Dream2nix the best way to do that?

I don't know!

Does this software even work?

I don't know -- I haven't tested it yet!

But it's an interesting problem -- what to do when a necessary sub dependency is available in one of the language-based (sub)installer's repositories -- but not in Nix Packages...

Installing that language-based sub-dependency on Nix is half the problem...

Making what that sub-installer installed on Nix truly reproducible across Nix installations is the other half of the problem...

Dream2nix would seem to be an up-and-coming project that has the most awareness of these Nix-related (sub)installer issues, thus far, so that is why I submit the link...

Netgear WAX202

Banana Pi BPI-R3
Nano-Pi R5S
Cudy X6

While the Cudy is very cheap (40 Bucks here in Germany), I still like the Banana Pi BPI-R3 most. But until it gets really necessary, I'll stick with my 32X... for me it does work but I won't recommend it any more without that note.

Here is some more info about the Banana Pi:

I think this is highly problematic that you can get banned for a feature that is there in your graphic card's control panel.

And it's not like someone can disable this feature for say their kids, it's not like it's hidden behind a UAC dialog.
> PCM-5862 (retails for $525)

10x more powerful than an Arduino, and 10x less powerful than a Pi Zerp (40x if you count cores?). Probably uses 1000x more power. RAM proportions are similar too.

It’s probably not fair to compare raw numbers like this, but it’s interesting to see how the market sliders move over time. I think the first Arduino only emerged five or so years after this article came out?
The academic consensus, incorrect as it may be, is based on scientific evidence of human existence in the Americas. Is there similar evidence that academia has ignored but indigenous peoples are aware of? Or are you referring to oral tradition?
I'm sorry, but this coup is the only "conspiracy theory" where i got second-hand versions of actual witnesses (actually, participants). There were journalists that wrote on that in France in the 60s (proamerican anticommunist, hardline right wing, so when he wrote "the US did it because Mossadegh was a commie", i mean, everybody should believe it). We had actual political party that wrote that the US did it in their manifesto in the 70s, and taught that to their members in their "modern history" lessons (my father tended to those instead of going to catechism/sunday school). You had public figures in Iran who said "The US paid us".

It was quite clear the US did it until in the 00s a top US official said "yeah, we did it, it was cheap".

JFK assassination is weird, because only 3 people needed to be involved, so it might be hard to find actual participants, but most conspiracy theories needs a lot more (anywhere from dozens to thousands), and those, i wouldn't trust no one serious talked. When Seymour Hersh managed to find proofs on CIA most secret operation (MKUltra, which is way worse imho than lying about getting on the moon or whatever), its hard to keep that objection.
The vast majority of PC sales aren't desktops, let alone anything with a discrete GPU [1]. The AI craze boosting GPU prices to the moon has very little to do with this.

I've always wondered why individuals don't sue companies like Equifax when their "identities are stolen" - if course they were never stolen, Equifax leaked your data that someone else used.

Surely they should be held responsible for whatever happens as a result of that.
OEMs betting on people throwing away working computers due to Windows 11 or AI gimmicks, good luck with those forecasts.
> They are slowly gaining an understanding of reality by reverse engineering the relationships built into human languages.

Perhaps the people building LLMs are doing this, but the LLMs themselves are not. LLMs are just generating text. They aren't "reverse engineering" anything.

> The only reason LLMs are getting better is because they are better modeling the world.

No, they are getting better at generating text that seems fluent and coherent, as long as you don't inquire into any actual semantic relationships with the world. LLMs can't model the world because they don't even have a concept of "the world". All they have is text.

I think I'm the other way around. I love coding new stuff, but sometimes I dread fixing bugs, especially if I don't have an immediate hunch about the issue and end up investigating for hours or days for a fix.

But I feel fortunate that I still enjoy programming for the most part (though not as much as 20 years ago) and haven't had too many situations where I had to force myself to do something that I would rather not.
Not entirely new. I worked for CompUSA back in the day and I know for a fact that the services team that did repairs on computers back then did 2 things the second a computer was functional, scan for MP3s and nudes, then copy those to a couple drives they kept in the shop to power their WinAmp and distribute to those that wanted copies.

I also know my college roommate ran the 1-hour photo at a walgreens and if there were personal photos be developed he made copies for himself.

At the end of the day any system you don't control that doesn't have verifiable E2E encryption puts your sensitive images at risk.

Noticing vandalism and fixing it is not the same as taking offence. Wanna get offensive stuff for some immature humour? Install fortune-...-off packages. Nobody is stopping you from experiencing it. But putting insults where other informative text should be is just stupid.
>If they hate it so much it shouldn't need tagging as it would be naturally lower ranked.

Eh, this is a two sided argument.

For example, lots of people look at porn. This doesn't mean when I pull up an art/picture site I want to have porn displayed to me. In addition sites that allow porn are typically flooded with massive amounts of that kind of content. If you are a site that wants to show non-pornographic artistic content, in general you have to ban and heavily moderate it or it takes over the site.

I can see where the same will be true for AI generated art. Where for human art, one work could take hours, maybe days or far longer to create. Nearly unlimited amounts of AI art could flood a site in days, so much so that even attempting to host content would not be feasible in any way.
Nothing in the wild.
This kinda makes sense. Cancer cells are under severe oxidative pressure, and vitamin C in reasonable doses is an anti-oxidant.

Humans aren't optimized to be correct, but they are optimized to survive and reproduce themselves in the real world. That's why we develop an understanding of the real world, while LLM can, at most, develop an understanding of human language and the constructs that human language can create. But without the napping that we have between that language and our experience of the world.

3d printing isn't as useful as people think, not for old cars. The parts that wear out are the parts that are put under some sort of load. You cannot 3d print a shock absorber. You cannot 3d print a connecting rod or bearing. Sure, you can print out a plastic widget for holding a mirror in place, but you cannot print out the actual mirror when it breaks.
How did you determine that? Could you link to a preprint or a publication where you make your argument?

Hi there! I will echo what most others are saying and tell you this is really cool!

It doesn't hurt that I am just trying to get back into reading a bit more also.

I wanted to ask, would the code of this be available? I would love to use this, but I don't use GoodReads to track my to-read list; I have started using bookrastinating.com to track my reading list and activities, and would love to integrate what you've built with bookrastinating (and possibly more since it seems that it is some sort of mastodon/activitypub thing).

Awesome job!

I don't think that is exactly true... I've seen arguments based on floating point calculations that accruing errors in FP can generate different results.
The problem with using LLMs for fiction is that they lack long-term internal consistency and direction. They can sometimes generate a decent vignette, but establishing (and sticking with!) settings, characters, and plot is still beyond them.

Honestly AI's hallucinating isn't a whole lot different than real life. Only a small minority of humans fact check anything anymore before believing it.

So "irl", we see people like Alex Jones that get up on their big platforms and start spewing nonsense, but if they sound confident enough and it confirms what you want out of the world, then people latch onto it as fact and don't bother to verify. You see this across the internet. Just today I saw a story on instagram that had been re-posted and the person that was talking about it was many degrees removed from the original, but believed it to be real. Looking through the comments, I had to scroll past 50+ comments to find someone who finally called it out as fake. Everyone else was just posting "no way", "wow, I never knew". You never knew because its completely made up. But when we hear someone speak with confidence and we don't care enough to fact-check, then people just believe it.

This is no different than AI. AI models sound confident and reliable. We assume they are making proclamations based on fact but they aren't always (or "usually" in my experience). Many people blindly believe the AI models because they sound reliable and confident in the way they speak. They never say "i don't know".

What AI is doing is problematic for sure. On one hand I want to take the pitchforks and revolt. But on the other hand I look around and realize, that even if we fixed it or vanquished this enemy, we still have a bunch of talking heads doing the same thing.

Maybe AI hallucinations are actually the most human element of AI.

I think there's still a market for what you're describing, but in terms of players and revenue it seems like competitive multiplayer titles that don't require particularly beefy hardware and where network latency is especially important have become what's most popular and profitable.

For example looking at September's games by MAUs[1], #6, #10 and #17 seem like good fits for cloud gaming, but the rest seem like a bad fit for cloud with fairly benign recommended hardware and latency sensitivity. Developers seem to be aware and willing to target fairly modest hardware specs for these titles as well. For example the new CoD's recommended GPU requirements is a 1070 and previous game was a 1060, which matches up with Steam hardware surveys.[2]
