Many school curriculums teach that science proves that gender isn't a binary and is divorced from sex, and they often implicitly (and sometimes explicitly) also go further to say that it is hateful to believe otherwise.

So anyone who has an internal moral voice that speaks to this issue, may be contradicted by science.

Household consumption as a % of GDP in Norway is 30% compared to 68% in the US. The Norwegian public sector produces 70% of Norway's GDP. You're underestimating to what extent these policies reflect real differences in how countries are run. In the good old USA Facebook et al are allowed to do what they do because people keeping those credit cards busy is what keeps the economy up. Doesn't work that way in Norway and a decent chunk of Europe.

> I dont get why americans are scared of us: we're just as scared of them.

Agreed. I'm not pro-CCP in any way, shape, or form, but the rhetoric and jingoism coming from politicians in both the US and China is stupid, and will end up causing an accidental escalation. Look at the whole balloon fiasco. Relations really need to normalize or the world is in a world of hurt.

I also blame a lack of English and Mandarin fluency in China and US respectively for causing this issue. The average Chinese or American doesn't get a chance to see life on the other side, so people end up building orientalized images.

Also, ime on the Hill, most of the people making China policy weren't Asian American nor had strong experience with Chinese (or Asian in general) culture on the ground. A lot of this was due to imo discriminatory hiring practices that prevented people with "ties" to a specific region from becoming a specialist for that area.

Microsoft 365 Copilot AI Tool Will Cost $30 per Month, Launching Nov. 1
There have been plenty of attempts. The problem is the high barrier to entry. Hosting videos costs a lot and you need a lot of content to keep viewers engaged/paying. If you go the advertizing route, companies don't really want to invest time and money into a platform that doesn't have a wide enough userbase. The only reason why YouTube worked like this is the silly amount of money Google was willing to sink into it.

It's really not.

There isn't a replacement for person to person interaction, WFH doesn't work for everyone (see also: anyone with a family in a vhcol city in a tiny apartment), and there is a very real worry that WFH makes it that much easier for investors who already barely understand what we do to push for more aggressive outsourcing.

(On that last point. I am honestly surprised by how hostile many people on here are about RTO. It is so obvious to me that the more we push for this outcome, the more aggressive employers will become about hiring in cheaper labor pools and driving down average comp. This isn't an issue if you've got 15 yoe and $500k in the bank thanks to years of excellent comp, but this completely locks out juniors and career changers.)

> I was raised totally secular

How come your comment history says otherwise (Judaism). I'm perplexed that the new approach to selling religion is pretending to be raised secular and or have others perceive oneself to once be an atheist but then later found the truth in life. Religion was the worst, the worst thing for me to experience in life, and I wish everyone could've experienced similar to me. Since religious people tend to not care about people that have been greatly harmed in life by what they continue to practice, keeping it alive to harm more people. A lot of members of LGBTQ+ classification know what the harm is truly like.

This was an interesting post, and as an older person in the industry, I feel sad for the current times, and where this person landed. Should this person have landed 20+ years ago, it would have been a much more enriching journey.

When I started, the industry was opaque to most, you got in as an intern with the knowledge that you knew nothing. Information was shared freely, things were shown to you. There was none of that third degree shaming "You don't even know about X?".

People understood the technology under their own work. They understood that things were complicated and hard. They didn't act like they could do it all, overnight.

I hope that this industry turns it around, and refocus on the prime objective: being nerds. Being excited about milliseconds improvements, excited about the small things, discovering and learning through curiosity... and not being insecure cockwits, that have to jam their superiority in other's face at every occasion because they, deeply, know how replaceable they really are.

The paragraphs about git were interesting, in the sense that the author, also suffers from the industry's "I'm right and you're wrong" motto; and that is the reason, by the looks, that they've left. There is some unresolved conflict there! "I'm tired of people acting like rockstars", and proceeds on a rant doing the same thing.

I suggest you never use those terms of affirmation and ask questions instead. Asking questions is the best way to get an imposter off their track. And if this person actually knows what they're talking about, the answer will enrich you.

Thailand's GDP per capita was 7,066.19 in 2019. China's is 12,556.33. However, the Chinese GDP number is widely known to be inflated[1]. Even Federal Reserve has weighed in on the question[2].

Thailand is not exactly a free place, but the political leadership isn't using economic growth reason for their continued existence and then setting annual targets for every province and city.

But what probably really makes up the difference is the purchasing power parity[3]. If I'm reading that right, Thailand has a PPP of 3x China. That will more than make up for any noise in GDP, population numbers, or GINI coefficients.

As far as I understand it, nothing "clocks down"; rather, frames are delayed as required to achieve the frame rate desired (or reachable, in the case of gaming) by the source, down to 1 Hz.

So, yes, fixed 120 Hz and 120 Hz with VRR and without any skipped frames might well be the same mode to a GPU, but it also might be a different one, requiring a mode switch. I don't know how Apple has implemented it.

But in any case, for the bug at hand it's irrelevant: Apple's ProMotion uses a refresh rate of 120 Hz, so switching between that and 60 Hz is definitely a mode switch.
Sadly that is exactly my case where it stopped responding. I thought it was your design goal! And I don't want to walk through the adventure again, especially after I jumped off the platforms twice.

Honestly, it’s kind of difficult to believe.

GPT4 is great at this stuff, but iterative refinement doesn’t work in my experience.

As the conversation increases, the previous context is lost and the generated code deviates from its previous behaviour.

For example, “fix this bug…” can easily result in a solution that breaks some other thing. You can also see code generated in thread (1) that does exist in the final result (2), suggesting that (since this is the very top of the code), they were getting chatGPT to iteratively generate 600+ line segments.

I severely doubt this.

Creating a new Slingshot on line 20 after it is defined on line 500? That is extraordinarily unlikely unless you specifically prompted it to do that.

“loadImage('stone2.png');”, it just happened to pick the right file names? The right sprite sizes? You provided all that in a prompt and it wrote the code? Come onnnn… show us the actual prompt you used.

It seems much more likely they generated a set of class objects relatively independently, then manually assembled them into a larger file, copied the entire thing as input and then crafted a “code prompt” like “write a function that does such and such”.

It’s not impossible they used prompts like they claim (3), but I feel they are (for likes and cred) vastly overstating the “it did all the coding” part of this project.

I feel they probably hand wrote some of the code (or assembled it) and used it as input + a “now do this also” style prompt, so the output was “100% generated”, but not in the way people are assuming.

This approach tends to make GPT4 rewrite the existing code, but unless you specifically ask for (or add) comments describing the intent through out the code (missing in most of the generated code), it will drift from the previous functionality. With no test suite to verify, you won’t notice this subtle drift and things just break. There’s no mention of either of these things being done by the author.

Further more, this user has a vested interest (4) in selling training materials for AI, so it’s in their interest to appear to be an expert at this, and has provided (even when asked on X) no additional details, no “step by step” git repo with history, no actual prompts they’ve used.

Given the lack of details and the frankly unbelievable results, I think there’s fair call to be sceptical in this case.

You could generate this kind of thing from models such as codellama 34B, or GPT 3.5; but not using the method as described.

I’m… not convinced you could do it with gpt4. The prompts seem too stupid to be real (5)… but I happy to be proved wrong with more details. GPT4 is good.

Just a minor nit on the provinces, you excluded Beijing, Tianjin, and Shanghai which have province level status and almost 60 million in population combined, close to Thailand's 70 million, and a weighted average HDI of 0.87.

Heterogeneity is and perhaps will always be a thing for China, and part of the question is if the poor parts have any low hanging fruit left to mimic the success of the earlier-developed and now high HDI areas, or have those fruit withered by now.
