Would probably be a smart move for a lot of companies. If it's profitable it's profitable. Milk it for as much as possible by cutting costs, not adding useless features.
Intel and AMD should get ahead of the curve and put some real support behind desktop linux, which has an actual path to ARM adoption for a much larger portion of its software.

But then again at least one of them should have been doing that 20 years ago.
Based on my experience, Xeons will do well for LLMs.

I tried Mistrel 7B in MlStudio.AI on an old HP z440 with 4x16=64GB DDR4 Reg RAM. It bottlenecks on the RAM, with the E5-1630 v4 running at 50%. It prints text faster than I can read.

If I were to design a processor for LLM, I would throw in a lot of cores, a lot of cache, and a lot of High Bandwidth Memory on the chip. This is basically the newer Xeons, so I think they are headed in the right direction.

I wish Intel had put a lot more HBM on their Xeon Phi accelerator cards. If they had it would have made them perfect for LLMs.
That’s a pretty wide range of outcomes but is it materially different than what happens to kids in average public schools? There are also factors like social class and resources that make judging outcomes pretty tough. Most people that homeschool kids due to religion aren’t going to be well off.
The Teensy is awesome. Programmed one to slightly boost the bass of my audioengine a2’s. It’s been running reliably for years.
American Evangelical political influence has greatly waned in recent years and very little of our political discourse is now explicitly religious, yet our discourse is every bit as full of moralizing and condemnation as it ever was. I would suggest that strongly held moral beliefs always tend towards authoritarianism. Things we consider to be truly wrong we don't want being done, even when we aren't personally involved.

Yeah, I prefer the context provided by the original creator. If I'm writing code and I need to reference someone else's work I put their name in my comments. I was digging through Box2D for polygon vs ray intersections and in the comments of the source code Erin Catto cites Collision Detection in Interactive 3D Environments by Gino van den Bergen. It makes me respect him even more.
NY Times also reports that the driver's BAC was below the legal limit, but does not give a figure.

I feel it is also significant that the vehicle suddenly swerved off the road for no apparent reason. As far as I know, this is not the sort of thing that usually happens when drunk drivers cause crashes, at least unless they are completely shitfaced. More typically they create dangerous situations through poor judgement and/or fail to react to a situation requiring action.
Could make it easier to build accessibility devices for the blind or for folks who don't speak the language?
Wow these are shockingly bad rules. This is how we end up with DBs with hundreds of tables and duplicate columns like `name` and `name2`.

My number one rule of growing schemas is to design your schemas and applications with a good custom field system. Some kind of flexible way of being able to add fields to items as data.

GPT wrapper to help non-native speakers
I built a tool that helps non native speakers translate and read their mail and documents better.

As a foreigner my, parents call sometiems twice a day to ask about a document they got or some mail. Not only is it annoying but also makes them feel unworthy that they can’t do basic stuff without the help of their child. Since building this I have reduced the phone calls to almost zero besides them calling to see how I’m doing.

Give me all your thoughts, and roasts.

There have got to be some freelancers/remote workers who have 100x'ed their productivity using GPT-4 and AI tools correctly. I can't imagine all these cool hacks exist in a vacuum. Imagine what we'll have in 2 years. The genie is out of the bottle.

Have to say this is a great resource.

I've been using it to discuss how my team could understand and build a similar implementation to this using Golang+Postgres. It provided a very strong reference point and helped us avoid a large number of possible pitfalls. Thank you eugene-khyst.

Currently only processing a few hundred thousand events/commands a day and still baselining the architecture but performance and reliability of our implementation is looking very promising.

BIOSes of the time were all written in highly-optimised Asm, and I suspect those little "easter eggs" they added were because the programmers knew they had enough space left over to put some more fun stuff in.

There was also AMI WinBIOS that provided a GUI, but I remember it being much less featureful than other BIOSes of the time with a TUI and didn't like mobos that used it, so in that case they may have sacrificed functionality for appearance.

To be fair– While 8GB is annoying– I've bought the M1 MacBook Air when it came out and it's remarkably resilient. I've only had it freeze a few times due to too little RAM.

I've also been using many different programs. I just have to be a tad mindful about closing tabs (especially Google tabs) and programs.

I'm European. Even pre-9/11 you'd get stopped and made to leave for saying the wrong thing. Post- we've got a guy getting jailed (famously the first person jailed for an act without criminal intent, because apparently airports get an exception from basic protections) because he went for a smoke and some people were scared of his luggage, and the person getting held without charge and without any water was also my country.

> But beaten up because you walk around in the wrong public area of an airport??

Sure, but if you take a wrong turn you're suddenly in the private area, and even if there weren't any signs, well, why did you wander off on your own, no-one else did.

> I am not referencing republishing the output results.

Okay, then what exactly are the harms you're referring to? Boneheaded implementations that need a scapegoat when it breaks?

If your system isn't accounting for the regular failure of AI, you haven't built an AI-ready system.

> There are countless examples, particularly in regulated usecases, where threads are audited. Thus, who is liable for the output of the LLM in those threads?

Whoever's idea it was to give AI control over that situation is the person who assumes liability. If a government audit reveals that someone is using an LLM to respond to emails, they're not going to blame OpenAI. These situations exist because motivated individuals, knowledgeably or not, create unreliable systems that they themselves are responsible for. The only realistic and effective stance is implicating offenders on an individual basis.

This entire post feels like you're trying to direct us towards some answer, but I'm not really getting where you're going. Who do you think should be responsible?

> The public school system is the primary way the state socializes kids

They aren't the state's kids. The school can help parents in things like socialisation, as far as they deem it appropriate, but I think the state raising kids is totally the wrong mindset.
This is a good point about GPT-4, it can intuit the "question behind the question" really well compared with other models. And it's been profoundly useful for me with the most random tasks I knew nothing about prior (like fixing a wall in my house), etc.

Somewhat unlikely: there is a race on between arrays of cheaper telescopes linked by software and ever larger single telescopes and optical bags of tricks to combine the images from multiple smaller telescopes. So an even larger instrument might well be obsolete before it could be constructed and that's before we get into the cost of such a project.
I find the word unregulated a bit loaded in this context- analogous to "unfreedom"

(Before they left the cell phone market,) Ting was the best phone company ever.

The anti-competitive behavior of the big cellular providers drove their costs for buying bandwidth through the roof and killed their MVNO (mobile virtual network operator) business.

Ting had a motto on their web site "Ting Hearts Hackers." They walked people through jail-breaking their phones.

They had live humans in my home state who did not have accents who answered the phone 24/7 to help, and knew much more then this former telecom programmer about the phones and the service.

They helped me when an eBay seller screwed me and sent me a phone locked to another network by buying it out from being locked and comped me the buy out because they said I was a loyal customer.

I miss Ting.
Well it’s a mode you really don’t want users going into if they didn’t intend to, so it kind of makes sense to only activate if the user has deliberately done an action that would not happen randomly.

I am not a lawyer.

"If i travel to the eu as an American does that mean it’s illegal to track me while present in their territory?"

Yes.

"Would I be able to sue them"

You can sue any time but only makes sense if meta does something illegal.

"and which country would be most favorable for the largest payout if so?"

If Meta breaks the EU law you would likely have to sue in the country were you were present. Could also be that you have to sue Meta in an EU country were they have an office. (Ireland? Luxembourg? Dunno).

"I’m happy to write their support team an email letting them know my intentions to travel (lol)."

This is a great idea, unfortunately there are no punitive damages in most EU countries. Your payment would be tiny.
I'm not surprised at the rise in homeschooling.

When you have anti-education groups like the Oregon Department of Education [1] running the public school system, any parent that cares and can make the effort should remove their child from public schooling.

This semester they switched my son from high-school chemistry to "environmental science". I asked him, "is oxygen flammable?" He couldn't answer. I looked at the content of the so called environmental science. Its really just a repeat of some basic biology material that he covered last year and lots of politics on pollution and climate change.

sure, in the same way pushups make you stronger. unless you do other exercises too, your body will not be strong. you can get strong without pushups, if they aren’t fun. being strong and staying strong should definitely be fun. in fact, it had to be. it’s the only way to sustain it.

>I believe this is very common, with rats starving themselves to death next to food

yes but in a way that makes it more interesting rather than less. dopamine evolved way way back in the evolutionary tree, and that it has been maintained for essentially the same use over millions of years and countless clades is fascinating.

don't give dopamine to ChatGPT, it's contraindicated with paperclips
Hey man, sorry forgot about this thread. Anyway, calling something ridiculous, as in it's easily open to ridicule, is not necessarily an insult when the specific thing is exactly that. Try not to be so easily offended. Especially online.

Also, I responded to every example you had with clarifying questions that were designed to get you to think about your points and back them up or (hopefully) change them. Reading comprehension is important. Saying things like "that wasn't my point" then not realizing what you implied nor clarifying what your point actually is a prime example of why. You don't have to say something directly to make an implication, which is exactly what you did on multiple points.

Gaslighting me into "not acting in good faith," so you don't have to actually think about the strength of your point (or lack thereof) is however the very thing you claim I'm doing. I just wanted to say that I hope you get more confidence in debate so that you aren't so quick to play the victim when your argument is held to the tiniest bit of scrutiny and try to take some imaginary moral high ground that isn't there.

> My take on it is that if you are not agnostic, at best, you're a "religious atheist" who presents belief (that there are no deities) as fact

No, the main non-agnostic atheist belief is "The current religions are bullshit" which there is plenty of evidence for, so it is a much more rational belief than belief in any religion. Therefore it can't be classified as a religion since there are strong rational arguments behind it.
I like to think that it's essentially Star Trek Voyager's situation but they've just got the entire moon instead of a spaceship.
Transparency is paramount. If OpenAI doesn't want to make it's proprietary software open to academic scrutiny I completely understand. However, if their app is going to play an educational role then sources and citation are mandatory in academic content.
I know of raycasting, raytracing, and now raymarching. Are these just attempts to find unique names for “doing something by projecting rays” or do they in some way I can’t see effectively and uniquely describe each technique?
> then another less expensive/effortful path could be hiring an afterschool math tutor, or sitting down with your child to work through Khan Academy together

But the objection is "inequity". Surely this extra effort creates more inequity?
That's the point, I think - Linux gets derided because people say it just breaks at random and you have to wade through forums to find arcane incantations to fix it, either implying or outright stating that their favorite proprietary OS would never just blow up in your face and force you to resort to exotic troubleshooting steps. So when macos, the poster child for "user friendly", proceeds to brick the machine and require elaborate rituals to fix, it invites a certain level of snark from users pointing out that the high and mighty proprietary OSs might be just as bad as Linux after all.

Of course, whether that's valid is at minimum a question of actual frequency of problems and relative impact and effort to fix, but from a perspective of optics and emotions I understand the reaction.
I have been sitting on this for a couple of days because I didn't want to react too quickly.

One word: Craft.

People like their craft. People wish to hone and refine. Become better. Find themselves with some level of mastery.

Speed is inherently a part of the craft of running over any distance. It's the sign you're doing it well. Your diet is working. Your stride and gait are optimal.

(Almost) anyone can run. Our ancestors were selected for it. The amount of time you do it in is the only reasonable discriminant of performance when the distance is fixed.

Why learn to paint a painting? Why learn to play a musical instrument in time, in tune, and in key? Why learn to write formal mathematical proofs? Why learn to tell a joke?

People who run faster are better at running. Why not want to be as good at running as you can be?

Being an educated Catholic, you're probably already aware that the Catholic church makes up about 50% of Christians. Throw in the Orthodox church, which says it knows where the church is, but doesn't know where it is not, and you're up to 60%. Throw in the Anglicans and the Methodists, who certainly share the relevant opinions regarding salvation, and now you're over 65%. The remaining denominations are a mixed bag but even ignoring the rest, it's hard to say how you could describe the Catholic church as a Christian outlier. Rather, it is all these tiny denominations which are outliers.
Many people don't realize just how powerful it is. I built an analog synth emulator (although this post gave some ideas about doing a web UI for it) for fun.

Which is the greater leap of logic though? All forms of organization we see in nature have a tendency to want to self-perpetuate. Consciously choosing to forgo perpetuation and instead eliminate yourself seems to be highly underrepresented in all the examples of intelligence we've ever encountered. It's actually weird we think the machines are so stupid they wouldn't recognize the optimization trap immediately.
This is clear in Christianity if you pay attention to apologetics (I’m not Christian, but I find some of that stuff interesting)

When various sects happen to go head to head, it’s like watching an MMA tournament where a very few competitors are well-trained in BJJ and most of the rest seem to hold a white belt in karate from the nearest strip mall. It’s usually not a competition, but a one-sided beating. Caring about some amount of intellectual seriousness would clearly narrow one’s options down a lot.
Can you list the beliefs and actions you're saying are common for all Christians?
I get that, but it still has no access to the DOM, renders to canvas, and isn’t ADA compliant. It also doesn’t mean that JS or TS can’t compile to WASM either.
Society would be robust to differing beliefs even if we had homogenous public schooling, but complete independence in education _will_ lead to underperforming workers and it's in opposition to what a world power needs to maintain its dominance in the global economy in the long-run.

There is nothing clickbait about the title. It describes accurately and succintly what the article writes.

> They were all polite about it, but it started making me wonder if all of these other aspects of homeschooling were just a fig leaf over a whole lot of religious indoctrination. Maybe those kids are fine, I didn't quiz them, but it did raise an eyebrow.

Multiple studies show religious people are happier, healthier, and have greater civic engagement. Mormons, who you probably consider extremely “indoctrinated,” live 5-10 years longer than other whites, are tied with Jews for happiest, and have among the highest upward social mobility of anyone in the US. So those kids are probably in better shape than the public school kids.
Pretty sure VRR is a mode as far as the display (controller) is concerned.

There’s very likely still a scan out rate determined by the maximum refresh rate, just that the source can delay the next frame if it’s not ready yet.

In other words, e.g. 120 Hz and 144 Hz of VRR aren’t the same even when displaying a 60 Hz signal at the moment – the faster signal would have more pauses and a higher signal rate.
