Are there any commitments for the amount of time I use the service? Would I be able to use it for a few months, weeks, or days without a longterm contract?
I like it. It’s a little behind google sometimes like with very breaking news, but for most of my day to day it’s a massive improvement.

This behavior is known to all parties. It's openly advertised and discussed by the admin office people.
Google provides email, and that’s how they track people across properties, not search.

Kagi doesnt have 25-year emails, and it costs $60 per year per user at Google’s.
I’ve been a happy subscriber to Kagi ever since Neeva shut down. Kagi is much faster and yields better results for the kinds of queries I make. The domain filtering really makes a big difference.
I think you don't actually know about g-factor. basically what these so called 'intelligence tests' measure is the rate at which one can absorb information and apply it abstractly, how you can come up with solutions to problems by basically doing high-level abstractions, finding patterns and connecting dots, finding things that no one thought of or came to their mind. What this means is that even though he might not know about how to do other things at first once he starts delving into them he can quickly learn them and really excel in them. What these test measure is the G factor and that if you are good at one thing you'll also be good at other things and I'm not making this up there is loads of evidence for this. the most rigorously tested idea in the field of psychology/ psychometrics is intelligence. if you had to choose one single concept out the whole field it would be intelligence. you can read the g-factor and how they measure it, all the theory, stats everything and then tell me what do you think.
> if there would be any evidence, you wouldn't have to "believe". It would be fact.

A lot of people don't believe the world is round despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. People come to different conclusions based on the same evidence all the time. (I'd prefer an example that doesn't imply that people with one belief are completely irrational, but that's the first one I came up with.)

To me, it's a lot harder to believe that God doesn't exist. Our beliefs are also shaped by our own experience and lots of intangible things.
Chapters should come first then?
Our NIH grants had major strings attached, like "you may not buy non-instrumentation computers" (at least, that's what I was told, I did not actually get to read the grants)

Sadly, that bit of goofiness goes back a long way. It's why the early HP desktops were sold as "calculators." Many important customers told them that buying a computer required approval from the board of directors, but anybody could buy a "calculator" out of petty cash.

Hey, CTO of Antimetal here. In working with our customers, we identified a pressing challenge: GPUs are not only hard to secure but often come with a hefty price tag. Most providers require long-term commitments that can be prohibitive. Initially, we provided GPU access to a handful of our clients, but quickly recognized a broader demand.

In light of this, we’re excited to unveil our GPU cluster for startups! As we continually improve this product, we’re really eager to hear your feedback.
Additionally, formal verification usability is an area of constant research, and the set of software for which it is the best ROI increases over time.
> The usually cited “most glaring” passages in Leviticus (Lev 18:22, Lev 20:13), read strictly literally, don’t condemn homosexuality per se, but both partners in a male homosexual act where one of them also engages heterosexual sex.

Curious how you get that interpretation out of those texts? From "Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable", I read "as one does with a woman", as an analogy. Do you have reason to read it otherwise?

This isn't really surprising. The source material it's trained on isn't particularly good, and interpolating between them at all generally doesn't work well.

I've been in rooms with Academics with egos so big it displaces enough oxygen to make it stifling. No one will challenge their behavior because it may affect their career. IMHO it is the due to the culture of Academia which is often win lose and credit based. This eventually leads to unethical behavior in some cases - falsification of data, theft of ideas and believe it or not sabotage. Any type or advancement is almost strictly based on what you can take credit for doing.

There is no Nobel for people that run labs that produce the next 10 Nobel winners other than themselves.
Used the Kagi trial. Even without any custom filters it had much less SEO garbage than Google.
Every time diagramming comes up in this context, I want to ask the question:

>What does an algorithm look like?

Why isn't it possible to represent a program visually?

Why do complex efforts along these lines either evolve to:

https://blueprintsfromhell.tumblr.com/

or

https://scriptsofanotherdimension.tumblr.com/

or devolve to nothing more than labeled boxes and a wall of text not markedly more intelligible than the textual program source itself?
That's exactly it. These models are huge.

I assume you mean excluding individual websites; though the idea of a search engine ignoring all websites is pretty amusing... (maybe you still get hits from Usenet posts?)
That just means you used a predictor that wasn't good enough (was this at least 4 ? or 3.5 ?) not that a GPT-X would need to physically taste recipes to generate novel recipes that tasted good.

GPT-2 was mostly an incoherent babbling mess but that didn't mean a better predictor couldn't be coherent.

GPT-3 could not play chess at all but that didn't mean a better predictor couldn't play chess (3.5-turbo-instruct)

Taste is implicit in recipes so a good enough predictor has to model it somehow to succeed, no physical experimentation necessary.
Their point is that it’s the dev choosing to do this stuff. Even if using regular HTML/CSS many devs opt to do that stuff.
earned media is the only marketing that matters. everyone knows this, there is no doubt.

I guess they haven't been doing their job very well then as I switched to Kagi.
I don't know if I'd agree that Reason and Merit are always applied by the market, unless the market is referring to "whatever VCs can be convinced to give money to". However, the crux of what you're saying, which is that in academia Reason and Merit are thrown directly out of the window is completely true.

My favorite discrepancy is in hiring. In startups, you can win a $150k/year job in a ten minute conversation with the right person and be at work the following Monday, even that afternoon in some cases. This is especially true if your previous work is already known to the person doing the hiring.

In academia (and to a lesser extent government work) they're conducting 6-month searches and stringing along candidates for months at a time for $65k jobs with a fraction of the responsibility of the equivalent in the private industry.
Even if you could block sites the issue fundamentally is that you don’t know what you don’t know. Ironically YouTube is what some use since any video that features a person reviewing the product is at least guaranteed to not be from a bot.
I've been using it almost exclusively since February of this year. It's pretty nice to be able to being able selectively bias searches yourself.
I thought this might be about XML.
So to be clear, it should be a safe space, but only for some? For others, it should be a space that they are free to be attacked, as punishment for the prior sins of others? Because this isn't even equality, or affirmative action, this is saying "you are free to attack some people on the basis of their race, or sex - things outside of their control".

It also still doesn't address the core concern. If you require being able to be sexist or racist to someone to make you feel safe in your space, that's a problem.
One thing I’m curious about …

Having done a lot of user research, sometimes the most important things to a person aren’t stated, or even consciously known.

If I’m shopping for chocolate chip cookies, they’re a proxy for another need: hunger, yes, but also emotions: wanting to feel taken care of, missing a place, etc. If chocolate chip cookies are unavailable, I’m not now considering snickerdoodles or shopping chocolate bars; I’m shopping for the feel: maybe it’s pie, maybe soup.

I’m interested to see if the AIs we build will have the ability to identify this, so when someone says “I want a steak frites” the AI doesn’t strictly recommend steak recipes—“they’re asking for steak”—but realized the constellation of what the asker is actually asking for—they’re asking for a recipe that reminds them of when they lived in that apartment in that city X years ago.

It will be fun to see what’s possible …

The FAA legalized unleaded avgas recently, yes. The EPA (the agency this article is about) was waiting for a legal alternative before banning leaded avgas. Since the EPA can't authorize a fuel for use in aviation (that's the FAA's jurisdiction) they had no choice but to wait on the FAA approval. Since the EPA can now ban the leaded fuel.
I partially agree, but think it's a matter of degrees.

Most of us probably have to do some image-crafting, but the closer the match between the image we craft and our unfiltered-self (if there is such a thing), the better.

I've certainly felt frustrated by people who seemed preoccupied with image-crafting, and by people who seem to have no social awareness or filter.

Edited to add: I think pseudonamous forums like this can be a valuable opportunity to develop the self you want to be with different social constraints from day-to-day life.

> Lol you purposefully chopped off the part where some of that was explicitly qualified to 'people' rather than to anyone!

You mean the bit after the clause I cited, which applies to a different thing than the freedom of speech?

My objection, to be clear, is your insistence on bending over backwards to justify the assertion that the denial of one right necessarily implies the denial of other rights based on a strange inversion of the idea of "personhood".
From the linked report:

- "Excessive nib Cd levels occur due to several main factors: 1) Theobroma cacao is a natural Cd accumulating plant species compared to others grown on the same soils; 2) topsoil Cd increases from deposition of litter and harvest debris on the soil surface; 3) Because cocoa roots remain in the topsoil, tillage to incorporate soil amendments harms the trees; 4) Most cocoa soils in South America and the Caribbean (LAC) are strongly acidic with pH as low as 4.5, so low that soil Cd is highly phytoavailable; 5) Some cocoa soils were historically Cd contaminated by mining wastes (minor part of land in cocoa production); and 6) some cocoa soils are naturally Cd enriched from parent rocks (e.g., marine shale) which makes these have high Cd:Zn ratios and thus have very high Cd phytoavailability. In these soils, beans can reach 10 mg Cd/kg rather than the 0.8 mg Cd/kg limit usually enforced on bean imports in the EU. One location in Colombia has 27 mg Cd/kg topsoil, 100-fold background levels. Other areas with high Cd:Zn problem soils growing cocoa were identified in at least Ecuador, Honduras, Peru and Trinidad & Tobago."

- "Cocoa plants absorb Cd into roots on a ZIP-family Zn transporter, not on the NRAMP5 transporter used by rice. Zn2+ in soil solution strongly inhibits Cd2+ uptake; thus higher Zn2+ in soil can reduce Cd in cocoa beans. The Cd:Zn ratio in the soil solution strongly affects Cd accumulation in cocoa trees and beans. Unfortunately, surface applied ZnSO4 does not rapidly leach into the rooting zone soil, and foliar Zn sprays are ineffective in reducing Cd in beans. Surface applied ZnEDTA as a Zn fertilizer could leach Zn into the rooting depth soil. But ZnEDTA costs much more than ZnSO4."
Some people might not search a lot for local stuff. Or it doesn't hurt them to use two search engines for different purposes.

> You also forgot the bit where Apple are ahead of doing it on a laptop that can achieve it without needing to be tethered to a power socket to achieve the performance.

Kind of sad that a huge anti-competitive, trillion dollar company is the one offering it. Especially given their stances around user freedom.

I'd much rather innovation be distributed. The goal posts should be moved to a point everyone is pushing towards the next thing. Having Apple be the only game in town is unhealthy.
Will we see a starlink “en route” to Gaza like how we did for Ukraine?
California actually has different gas that produces fewer emissions - it's part of the reason gas is more expensive here. It's called CARBOB grade, c.f. RBOB/CBOB.
> It is currently setting up roadblocks in Gaza to prevent civilians from moving south away from the targeted areas.

You mean that they're preventing civilians from going to an area Israel is bombing anyways?

This is true. On the other hand, the recipes aren't typically good, and generating novel ones isn't really what people mostly want to do... so the value seems limited.

Thanks for the feedback - this particular model is BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5. What alternative embeddings would you recommend?
Maybe. Most automotive engines ran just fine for a normal lifespan without changing the valve seats. When you work the engine hard you need it, but if you are not racing you generally got by with it. Of course the change for automotive was the early 1980s when engines were not as reliable and didn't last as long.

Don't forget that aviation engines are require a lot of regular rebuilds. In a car you wait until something breaks, in an airplane you replace parts long before they might fail to ensure it doesn't break when in the air. So for many we can just add replace the seats/valves in the next tear down and be okay.
On this subject, I recommend the book "Vitamin C and Cancer: Medicine or Politics?" by Evelleen Richards. Pharmaceutical companies have no intrinsic motivation to provide (1) cures at (2) a price one could purchase without health insurance.
Yeah, that’s the legwork you have to do. Honestly it’s probably not much legwork but if filters like this were more prevalent in say Google for example, it would turn into a cat and mouse game very quickly between search engine users and blogspam.
California 'gas sucks' for a couple reasons which are easy to miss if you're in California.

1) Few refineries make it, so it's MUCH more expensive. But if you're living in California, it is easy to miss because EVERYTHING is much more expensive.

2) Mileage is generally poorer, due to the mandatory ethanol mixes. But some places also usually mix in ethanol, and the difference is usually in the 10-15% range. So unless you have a good A/B comparison going, it's also easy for it to blend in with all the stop and go driving, and terrible road conditions.

3) Mandatory Ethanol means generally very poor storage characteristics. Which considering how much driving happens in California (and how dry the climate is in the populated areas), most people won't notice.

So does it suck? Comparatively, definitely! Is it likely to be noticed unless you're very aware and have experience with other options? Nope.

Good to meet you! I hadn't seen graphjson before, I'll check that out. I'm also a fan of tinybird, and I think we have similar goals of wanting to make it easier for people to adopt OLAP.

On the technical side, I've made different design decisions when it comes to ingesting and processing data. For example, after a table is created, you can post new JSON, with different columns, and we ingest it without needing a manual migration step. I also have a different treatment for JSON arrays, where we can split them into multiple Clickhouse rows (rather than using a clickhouse array.)

Philosophically, I think there is a lot of room for open-source software that also has an amazing UI and developer experience. I've been writing OSS for years and basically think this is the best way to build successful developer tools.
> True effective altruism at play here.

Ngl, I feel terrible for all the people that lost FTX money, but it is kinda amazing to see the world see what a terrible mess and how irreducibly dumb most of the effective altruists are.

Kinda like when gwern went off on his eugenics rant and people went: are all of these "rationalists" libertarian lunatics?
Incorrect.

When a part of the constitution wants to describe the requirement of citizen or not, it will specifically say.

"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

"No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen."
For much much more on this, I'm most of the way through Google's book _Building Secure and Reliable Systems_, which is a proper textbook (not light reading). It's a pretty interesting book! A lot of what it says is just common sense, but as the saying goes, "common sense" is an oxymoron; it's felt useful to have refreshed my knowledge of the whole thing at once.
How do we solve that?

I absolutely understand - I'm sorry of the situation you are in, I'm certain it's exhausting, and it shouldn't be on you.

I'm way out of my depth, but maybe you could reach out to victim's advocacy groups (you might very well have already!) to get some measure of support and guidance. As you mentionned, the SoL is limiting for your case, and it could be a good idea to see if you could file something and delay it until the other litigation is done. Again - I'm as out of my depth as can be.

Also - just a thought - maybe you could reach out to news outlets or legal oriented content producers (Legal Eagle, Attorney Tom and the likes). The story you told here is harrowing and most journalists would jump on it right away, which could possibly be helpful, but it adds a lot to your plate.

Wish you all the best going forward.
But if they delivered poor results for advertisers then they won’t pay Google. So ultimately you as the non-payer are second in line in terms of interests.
I understand what you're saying, I just think we have a fundamental disagreement over "taste is implicit in the data" that I'm not sure we can resolve here. Intuitively it makes sense to me that if you know the entire sequence of a protein's fundamental building block then you can deduce its higher-level properties, but it does not make sense that if you know a lot of high-level descriptions of an ingredient and how it tastes then you can deduce behaviors like how it will react to a certain application of heat or another ingredient.

I appreciate your links though, I think this is the first I've heard of an LLM doing something that a human can't do. I can't claim to understand a lot of the first paper and I can't access the second, but assuming your descriptions are right I agree that my rule of thumb was wrong.

> if there would be any evidence, you wouldn't have to "believe". It would be fact.

No, “any evidence for X” does not imply “X is fact”.

That's why in the justice systems different degrees of evidence are needed for different consequences: if your rule was true, if there was any evidence for something, we could just jump to the most extreme consequence warranted given the assumption that the thing for which there was evidence was a certain fact. It would be “there's even the slightest evidence of guilt” -> “impose punishment”.
