The linked article requires a medium account to read, so it stops mid-litany of computer embeds.

I'll just share that when I was using my Imsai 8080 to do work stuff with instant turnaround, I suggested to my boss that he get something like a TRS-80, to learn about computers ( not just programming, which the mainframe let you do ) "before they become too complex to understand at all" ... which they did. ( Raspberry Pi? )

The language part did get easier and way more interesting, as discussions here have demonstrated. :-)
I state it matter-of-factly because I believe the idea of it being supernatural lacks evidence of any sort; there's no reason at all to make that hypothesis in the first place. I feel like the studies (or at least the reporting of the studies) come at the question from the wrong direction - the hypothesis should be that all of these experiences have explanations grounded in the function of the brain and body, because the opposite approach is, as you point out, unfalsifiable.

Naturally we don't know, which is why we should assume the explanation that is grounded in reality until it is proven otherwise - especially when the effect of the supernatural answer being true is indistinguishable from the natural answer. If all life after death amounts to in how it affects the living is knowing that the "tunnel of light" is real (but not what lies beyond that), then what use is that information compared to just believing it to be imaginary?
OK, I've put the latter above.

In most search engines, including Google and DDG, you could input,

<search-term> site:learn.microsoft.com

It restricts results to that domain.
ISPs previously did this. Not JS exploits, but they injected ads into HTTP web pages. Really popular ISPs, on the level of Comcast.
It is not correct to refer to it as Soviet-Era. Using the logic from the title, Apple Macintosh is also Soviet-Era.
Yugoslavia was never part of Warsaw bloc, it had its own political system and no USSR army on its territory.
Android's always-on display turns off most of the screen, besides a clock and set of notification icons. And the display constantly shifts to avoid burning out the screen.

It looks like iOS, on the other hand, just dims your lockscreen slightly? I can see why they'd have to get smart with how often they leave the display on. It'd be distracting while you're trying to sleep and sounds like a battery killer. In a way, Apple may be using the phrase "Always-on display" more literally than you'd expect, even if it is less practical.
You can also modify the bangs to your liking. I never use podcasts, and so having !p bound to podcast search was useless to me. Opened up the lenses config, and set the programming lens to !p.
Tesla’s marketing is awful, but “autopilot” has historically not meant “fully autonomous.” IMO Tesla adopted this term and twisted it.

Airplane autopilots still require a large amount of pilot input to operate.
Source on that being staged?
It doesn’t matter at all what they claim they meant. Self driving and autopilot are both terms in the zeitgeist from sci-fi that objectively refer to autonomous behavior. Tesla claiming anything else is what they meant is almost certainly bad faith and even if it isn’t it should still be false advertising simply because they chose these terms.
No, I think in general HN has been more wary/skeptic of Musk than the general public. The turning point to me was the pedophilia accusation against someone actually saving kids, but since Solar city at least you could find people extremely critical (and since then I've looked at the solar city video critically and people here were right, it was oil salesman tactics)
> Just tried Mistral-7B-OpenOrca-GGUF. It's impressive - and delusional. Open-Orca training seems to have convinced it it's ChatGPT:

The worst thing to ask any bare LLM about (i.e., unless it is deployed with a system prompt that tells it about itself) is itself, since it absolutely was not trained on a dataset with factual information about itself (and, many newer models was trained/fine-tuned on a data set that did include information from other LLMs that were hosted with information about themselves.)
Buffer overflows can result in remote code execution, but it'll be within the same process, and there's no way to turn seccomp back off.
Yeah it does, everyone who knows English says.
It was really "popular" in 1984 and 1985, and for hobbyists only. If you started being interested in computers after 1985 there was a big chance to never hear of it.

Autopilot is nowadays nothing special. Majority of cars have (at least as options) systems that are often better (for example, with much much less phantom braking).
Android has always-on when charging in the developer options.
Proprietary licenses are way more hostile than any FOSS license, though.

What about the Vicious Chicken Of Bristol??? Any truth to that?

"Narrator: Sir Bedevere the Wise was the first to become one of King Arthur's Knights. But other illustrious names were soon to follow: Sir Lancelot the Brave, Sir Gallahad the Pure, Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot — who had nearly fought the Dragon of Angnor, who had nearly stood up to the Vicious Chicken of Bristol, and who had personally wet himself at the Battle of Badon Hill — and the aptly named Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Film. Together they formed a band whose names and deeds were to be retold throughout the centuries: the Knights of the Round Table."
It is (was?) actually called Full Self-Driving Beta, which to an engineer does explicitly indicate that bugs are to be expected. Not sure if they're still calling it Beta, but at the time of this accident they certainly were.
Dam. That is like someone kidnapping my cat, killing and stuffing her, covering her with glitter, then handing her back to me claiming that they 'improved' her.
Mind if I ask what API you're using? Is it from Overdrive's API or a third-party? Have an idea I want to explore if there's a decent API.
Nikola, the EV truck company, was full of shit. The truck couldn't drive under its own power. Tesla FSD on the other hand, is just not as good as advertised. Kinda like how a Lindt Truffle isn't velvety bliss, or a 787 Dreamliner is still hard to sleep on, or even BMW's excessively superlative "ultimate driving machine." The 4 cylinder Z3 was a terrible vehicle.

One can wish FSD means perfection in every circumstance all the time, and Tesla certainly implied in its marketing that it is. In reality, FSD is really amazing at times and 'what-the-hell was it thinking' at times. But it does control speed, steering, braking, obstacle avoidance, traffic maneuvering, parking, navigation in a manner that, yes, I would call "Full Self Driving." It is very far from perfect, and Tesla has certainly communicated it as being better than it really is. there's a high dose of caveat emptor, but FSD does a lot more than any other car I've ever driven or owned. The fact that I will not let it attempt to navigate certain intersections, either out of embarrassment or risk of getting hit, does not diminish the fact that my car will give it the ol' college try.

I do think Tesla should get a substantial hand slap though, and should be required to give an extended free trial to everyone to see exactly what it is that FSD can and cannot do, and also give those who purchased FSD outright an extended refund window.
Especially since Tesla (or at least Musk) were pushing the idea that Tesla owners would be able to earn passive income by letting their "Full Self-Driving" equiped cars act as self driving taxies, competing with Uber/Lyft on the "Tesla Network"

I don't see any other way of interpreting it.
Its more like SlowGPT
Technically you have to move your site every 14 days on BLM land, though to your point that is not going to be enforced in some regions of the Mountain West. In some remote areas of Alaska, including the islands of the Inside Passage, there are small, informal off-the-grid permanent settlements on government land. If they aren’t causing trouble such that someone complains then it isn’t worth the government’s time to care.

In the wild parts of the US, even the government tends to adopt the “live and let live” ethos of that type of country.
Sounds like the basic idea is as follows:

Typical transformers apply self-attention between tokens that vary across time. So the dot product values for each pair of tokens in the resulting attention (correlation) matrix are basically dot products between pairs of moments in time.

The iTransformer authors seem to be saying that, for certain time series forecasting tasks, it's not correct to assume that embedding channels of tokens across moments in time represent data that was collected at precisely the same moment or with similar instruments. In reality, different varieties of data are sometimes not precisely aligned in a data set and also have very different distributions relating to how the data was collected.

So the iTransformer model proposes to apply self-attention across embedding channels instead of across time. Self-attention otherwise seems to work in the same way. Query and key matrices are calculated but they project each embedding channel separately instead of projecting a collection of channel values at a single moment. Then the query-key calculation finds the degree to which all the entirely independent time series (embedding channels) are correlated. Those correlations are used to weight the value vectors and obtain new embedding channels that are weighted averages.

Then the feed-forward layer projects each channel independently, instead of projecting across channels as it would do in a standard transformer model.

Also, since layer normalization acts within an embedding channel, they claim that this can reduce noise that would result from normalizing data across channels that were collected using different methods. The distribution characteristics of each channel stay within the channel instead of bleeding across channels and potentially deleting information.

They lay out more of their reasoning for taking this approach in the paper and I feel like I agree with their intuitions. But the paper needs some serious proof reading. It's very hard to parse the verbiage.
Does AWS even offer any arrangodb related services? I wasn't aware. This seems more like a preemptive move by investors to prevent such a thing ever happening. Which, congratulations, they just managed to do. But they might have thrown the baby away with the bathwater.

I just looked at their repo and it seems pretty popular. However, all the top contributors seem to be based in Cologne, Germany. I guess the headquarters are there. Not a lot of outside contributions happening either. I.e. not a very vibrant/healthy oss community around this product. I don't think AWS even has an office there. So I take the lack of their involvement and interest as a given here. But please correct me if I'm wrong. This also makes a fork unlikely. There's a distinct lack of any external stakeholders here. Short of the original developers leaving and forking, that's just unlikely to happen.
Telegram get remote IP
This project demonstrates how to obtain the remote party's IP information during Telegram calls, and even answering calls carries some risk .

In fact, this type of issue exists in all peer-to-peer connections based on WebRTC. It exposes the true IP address during the signaling process, ICE candidate gathering, connection establishment, and communication phases.

In reality, if you want to obtain someone's IP, it's not that difficult once they answer the call. You can simply send a disguised link for them to click on, and any arbitrary request on the web page can collect various endpoint information .

This project also demonstrates how to use Wireshark to monitor network card information and intercept data packets. The code portion is quite instructive and worth learning from.
Costs the same for them regardless of where you're searching from, and they have no other revenue sources other than user payments.
England has a monarchy going back thousands of years. Meanwhile, I think it remains to be seen if the younger governments failed to learn the right lessons from the US or have learned from the US's mistakes.

> FSD is a trashfire. I'd say the closest description is like you're constantly supervising a 15 year old learning to drive for the first time.

Rented a Tesla for a day a couple years ago, and can confirm. I spent the day experiencing a car repeatedly trying to murder me for the first time in my life, and mainly during what's supposed to be easier highway driving at that.
2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen = H2O. Linking to the U.S. electricity generation by energy source makes sense to me. If anything I'm just disappointed that it's already pushing a green energy (hydropower) agenda. /s
Well the other risk you have trusting all your personal data to some organization is the longevity of said organization. Your data may be protected as long as their business model aligns with that but it's never guaranteed to stay that way.

One of the best historic examples is MySpace. MySpace started out fine and slowly as it declined and eventually dwindled to nothing, it started selling off massive amounts of previous user data. With no future or user base to speak of, there was a lot more potential benefit selling the data than the cost of protecting/holding it.
It's not necessarily about the top result. It's about the top 20-30 results.
Right now I believe the cost is directly related to what it costs to run the number of queries offered in each plan. Charging less would have them running at a loss.
Sure, but that's time consuming and often too specific: Kagi lets me push sites I trust results from higher without limiting the search to a specific single site. It also explicitly looks to rank blogs by individuals higher than corporate websites, so it's more likely to surface that niche how-to by someone else who has been there.
From the same marketer that brought us PZEV (partial zero emission vehicle).
Unfortunately the testimony was not recorded so we can't hear/read the testimony in full with context. Perhaps he was talking about the fact that FSD was labeled as a beta and therefore bugs were to be expected? Tesla does in fact use the future tense in all their marketing ("your car will be able to drive itself with updates"), and this engineer might not be taking it account expectations due to a name vs explicit claims about performance.

From the other excerpted testimony it does not seem like he is covering for Tesla in general so further context would be helpful.
let me put it a different way...

Do you think randomly selected sample of people from today or 1923 would win in sports competition?
Well, that's nice that it works for you.
Pretty sure OpenAI copyrighted the "GPT" suffix, so not sure what Kagi is naming an API this. I think OSS projects get a pass, but I'd imagine commercial competitors.
There's a lot of unwarranted drama around this. Reposting a blip from what I wrote below:

>>FSD controls speed, steering, braking, obstacle avoidance, traffic maneuvering, parking, navigation in a manner that, yes, I would call "Full Self Driving." It is very far from perfect, and Tesla has certainly communicated it as being better than it really is. there's a high dose of caveat emptor, but this FSD does a lot more than any other car I've ever driven or owned. The fact that I will not let it attempt to navigate certain intersections, either out of embarrassment or risk of getting hit, does not diminish the fact that my car will give it the ol' college try.

I think it's reasonable, certainly not baffling, to call its performance "Full Self Driving." As noted below, I also think Tesla should be obligated to a generous refund/trial program, which to me absolves the ticky tackiness of "what the definition of FSD is"
> Airplane autopilots still require a large amount of pilot input to operate.

True or not, few people know that.
> Isn't token completion incapable of representing AGI?

Given the absence of a validated model (or even usable operational definition) of general intelligence, who knows? AGI might as well be an empty marketing buzzword, it isn't something about which falsifiable fact claims can be made.

> AGIs need the ability to perform internal thought and deliberation

Systems built around LLMs can do something like this, via reflection, a technique in constructing agent-based simulations using LLMs as the engine.
I mean, when people are writing unpaid ads for a service just because it's so much better... maybe you should try it. (Fastmail too, the other "pay for quality" product often brought up here.)

This article highly underestimates the value of keeping 128b vector performance high. Most code doesn't get recompiled or compiled with the appropriate flags. There is significant overhead involved in supporting 1x512b operations, 2x256b operations, or 4x128b operations per cycle with the same datapaths, forwarding network, and register files. Until 128b vector performance gets deprecated this tension incentives narrow implementations.
iirc interferon gamma is a cool sounding name but what it does is more esoteric than say interferon alpha or beta, which more directly activate immune response at the site of release.

The name really doesn’t matter. I don’t know why everyone is always arguing about it. It’s very clear that it isn’t autonomous when you buy and use it, and that most of what you’re buying is future updates.
I figure that's the idea

Show HN: Empower the Next Generation of Google Summer of Code (GSoC)
Hi, HN!

Teamnova, made in Vancouver with love, is on a mission to make mentorship in open source more accessible and inclusive.

While traditional Open Source Mentorship Programs (OSMPs) are excellent, they often lack a structured approach for effective team collaboration. The Apache maxim "Community Over Code" inspired me to think, "Why not create a new platform where mentors can help mentees improve both the hard and soft skills required for open source??" This is how the concept of Teamnova’s "S-Team" (Self-organizing Team) structure was born.

Google Summer of Code (GSoC), as one of the most prestigious OSMPs, is highly competitive. According to 2023 statistics, out of 43,765 applicants and 7,723 proposals submitted, only 967 GSoC contributors were accepted. We hope that Teamnova can help more people benefit from high-quality project-based mentorship programs like GSoC.

I would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and suggestions as I continue to improve Teamnova. Feel free to ask any questions or try out the platform at https://teamnova-demo.vercel.app.

Are we sure these are not AI?
> I'm really curious what brought you to that conclusion.

Having little to no insight or direct experience. I cannot tell you how unbearable Istria and Dalamatia coasts can get in the Summer months without AC. And I've lived in Zagreb not far from the Slovenian border when we couldn't afford to turn on the radiator on for more then a few hours and it f'ing sucked. It made living in Germany almost comfortable by comparison--I lived near the French border and only had kachelofen to heat the home.

Croatian climate is incredibly diverse, its much like Californian climate in that respect; it has lots of islands where you may get away without AC or Heating, but that doesn't encompass the mainland. For such a tiny country it has a lot of diversity in terms of climate and culture for that matter.

The difference between saying your car is "the ultimate driving experience" and that your car has a "full self driving" mode is the difference between puffery and straight up fraud.

Actual break-even rate of reply.
I've switched over to Kagi as it was announced myself.

However lately, I've found that it started sucking a lot more when it comes to localised search. I am actually not seeing the value and quality I've seen early on, and will likely stop paying for it as I increasingly do have to fall back to Google.
Who doesn't want $100?
As these technologies become reality, funny to think that we may see a class of disabled people leapfrog the rest of society and become hyper-enabled. Becoming essentially superhuman, with heightened abilities in things like vision or prosthetics due to being the first to adopt bio augmentation
What I love about Kagi is that I never find myself needing Google.

Years ago when I tried out DDG, I found myself appending !g to every query, and I thought that Google Search would always have a place in my life, but Kagi results are _so_ good.

So, once YouTube has a viable replacement I might be able to delete my Google account.
My experience matches the GP: It was a cult of personality (or lots of astroturfing).
FSD beta is significantly better on highways than the current standard Autopilot. It is a total crapshoot on surface streets. The cognitive load is definitely higher than manual driving on surface streets still, the highway it’s less.
Do you have any source on this. A quick Google search says the opposite. Though it sounds like they may be in the process of trying to trademark it

edit: copyright -> trademark
I’m sorry, but no one who wrote that definition would agree with your interpretation. You are being intentionally misleading in an attempt to make a point.
