Childhood Innocence? Mapping Trends in Teenage Terrorism Offenders
You set your own system prompt on the API, and Simon us done a lot of work in that area; perhaps that is what he is getting at.
War may be imposed upon you by one side, such as the invasion of a country. At which point, war stopped being a choice.

Terrorism as far as we can see is basically incredibly ineffective for inspiring any sort of changes, and serves to enrage your enemy, much like indiscriminate mass bombing often strengthen the resolve of those who are on the receiving end of it.

> lack of scrollbars on macOS

Do you know that you can tell your Mac to "always show scroll bars" on System Settings -> Appearance page?

Anyway, while I tend to agree that Snow Leopard UI was the best and it went downhill since then, the latest macOS is still very usable and I do not suffer on Mac at all (unlike Windows 11, where I had to install a 3rd party app to at least partially revert what they did with UI)
> Complexity theory tells us you can sort those in nlogn time.

You seem to be attacking a strawman — no CS textbook says you can sort n strings in O(n log n) time (that's just the number of comparisons); of course sorting n strings each of length m will take O(mn log n) time — that is, you have to multiply by the average time for each comparison. This is what complexity theory says, and what any good textbook would also say. You don't need "a new complexity theory built on top of Information Theory"; the current one already does so. (And m could be much bigger than log n too.)
Wazero looks super cool. I saw somewhere that programs can be run with a timeout, which sounds great for sandboxing. The program input is just a slice of bytes [1], so an interesting use case would be to use something like Nats [2] to distribute programs to different servers. Super simple distributed computing!

You had me till this.

The conspiracy theorists actually make very good points. They’ve been vindicated by discoveries at Gobekli Tepi and others that basically demolish the strongest argument the Egyptologists had against a significantly older Sphinx - that no other megalithic structure had been found till then.

This is one of those situations where the conspiracy theorists make a far more convincing argument than mainstream, and entertainingly, all the recent discoveries in archeology have only strengthened the positions of the conspiracy theorists.

I would look at them again with fresh eyes. The younger dryas impact hypothesis looks especially convincing.
I often wonder how my online friends would find out if I died. In some guilds usually people will go missing for 2 years and then somehow someone hears from their family that they passed away and shares it with the community.

I guess I should compile a list of email addresses that my sister should have access to.

TOML doesn't "fit static languages" better and is just as dynamically typed as YAML. It's used extensively in the Python ecosystem, which has TOML in stdlib (not YAML).

I'm less sure about protobufs in Python (I never tried), but in general relying too much on Python's dynamic nature is not a good thing IMHO.
Kate Editor: Introducing the Embedded Terminal on Windows
Come up to Canada, I've never experienced one NOT to work, and I've also never seen a pump in the last ~5 years that doesn't have tap to pay.
Gasoline pumps standardized because a nozzle is relatively simple. And then use a smaller nozzle for cars that only take unleaded gasoline and you can't put leaded gas into the wrong car.

On the other hand, diesel nozzles didn't really standardize until the last 10 years or so. Mostly diesel stations used the old (larger) standard, unless it was catering to trucks and then it's a really big nozzle for bigger flow. But sometimes you'd get an unleaded gasoline style nozzle, cause those would fit in diesel cars too, and there's no fume recovery system. But then VW and other diesel car makers started putting in rube goldberg systems to try to reduce the amount of gasoline you can put in a diesel car... And then the diesel pumps with the smaller size nozzle became difficult to use, so they've probably been replaced.

OTOH, a funnel is an easy, low tech fix to a nozzle problem. Can't really adapt a charging socket so easily.

Right. And my point was that dragonwriter said that the courts have ruled on it, but with more detail. That detail may be wrong (I don't know), but you've been talking past it while crowing about how everyone else is wrong for saying things they didn't say.

The comment was just to tell a fascinating story of the conceptual origins of what we have today. But the predictor Claude imagined actually works quite a bit differently than what we have today.

Yes Shannon argued meaning and semantic wasn't necessary but today, we know that our language models develop meaning and semantics. We know they build models. We know they try to model the casual processes that generate this data and implicit structure that was never explicitly stated in the text can find themselves emerging in the inner layers.

>LLMs do not use logic at all. The logic of invalidation is missing.

This is a fascinating idea that i see that just doesn't square with reality. In fact, this is all they do. What do you imagine training to be ?

Prediction requires a model of some sort. It need not be completely accurate, or how you imagine it. But to performantly make predictions, you must model your data in some way.

The important bit here is that the current paradigm doesn't just stop at that. Here, the predictor is learning to predict.

We have some optimizer that is tirelessly working to reduce loss. But what does a reduction in loss of internet skill data distribution mean?

It means better and better models of the data set. Every single time a language model fails a prediction, it's a signal to the optimizer that the current model is incomplete, insufficient in some way, work needs to be done, and work will be done, bit by bit. The models in a LLM at any point in time, A, is different from the models at any point in time, B during the training process but it's not a random difference. It's a difference that trends in the direction of a more robust worldview of the data.

This is why language model don't bottleneck on some arbitrary competence level humans like to shoe-horn it on.

There is a projection of the world in text. Text is the world and the language model is very much interacting with it.

The optimizer may be dumb but this restructuring of neurons to better represent the world as seen in the text is absolutely happening.
> This was the first time I realized that at least with gas, I can fill up and hand over the pump to the next person

I spent years driving around Africa, and it's eye opening to see what happens when there is a major power outage. All that gas in the ground, and no way to get it out!

I saw lineups literally days long because of it.

The more experience I get, the more I feel that too many programmers worry about making things pretty "in the small", but not enough care about proper design of an entire codebase.

I'll admit that I like a concise and well-crafted function just as much as many others, but articles like this one are probably the things that can lead to the kind of unproductive bikeshedding that is sometimes experienced in PRs and other discussions. I don't care that much about whether your function is messy - or about where you put your ifs and fors (or if you use maps and filters instead), as long as the function is properly named, has a good interface (including expressive types), a clear purpose, is properly documented, doesn't make excessive use of side effects etc.
This is interesting when viewed in light of the recent claim that the enclosing walls of the sphinx demonstrate water erosion before the start of the dynastic Egyptians.

It is clear that parts of the sphinx were sculpted by the dynastic Egyptians.

What is not clear is exactly how long ago human construction started to modify its appearance from a natural formation.

It would be nice to see some more evidence for the timeline of the human shaping of the structure, from the structure itself.
Well, you could, for example, store it in a small piece of shelving furniture that you get somewhere, right next to your little portable range stove (electric or gas) problem solved for an incredibly broad amount of cooking, pretty much anything that doesn't require baking, and there are even pots that let you get around that, compact slow cookers too. No hotel room is so small that it doesn't fit such modest tools.

Do you really think it's near impossible to endure hotel room or compact apartment living living unless you can absolutely have the tools and space of a full-blown suburban kitchen in there? Comments like these truly remind me of how removed a certain subset is from how billions of people can live comfortably for years on end by improvising modestly.

Similar to another example comment I saw by someone on this site who really thought that it was just impossible to make coffee at home unless he had a full-blown espresso/capuchino machine of the kind some commercial cafe might use.

Almost no other vending process dependent on Paywave breaks longterm. I think its because the refill cycle is frequent enough there's a functional minimum attendance and people with "power" (the agents) who profit from the service are made aware of the bug.

with EV chargers there's no nexus of incentive to the site operator to be aware this is bust unless they actively engage. Maybe, "your rent is conditional on reporting problems" would motivate?

I’m just coming back to this thread to answer some of the other comments over the next few days, but WiFi does count here. It operates on ISM bands, AFAIK there are OSS chips, and it allows encryption.

What’s more interesting to me is that the M17 project has found some chips on aliexpress that are lower level and work on a multitude of bands. I’m trying to find this and will update when I do.
The neoliberal economic model requires exponential growth in consumption and these economists are the ones who help politicians draft their policies and budgets. Degrowth (https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/13/economy/degrowth-climate-cop2...) seems like the only real solution to me but try explaining to people that they'll have to consume less and you'll realize why the most likely outcome is catastrophic collapse.

I've talked to people about plastic pollution and how most synthetic chemicals/pollutants are now part of the water cycle. The usual response is that it is depressing to think about and the conversation then changes to some inane news about the latest consumer gadget or toy. Most politicians are not interested in challenging their constituents and their consumption habits because that's not something that gets anyone elected into a political office. Presumably good leaders are supposed to think long term but most politicians are not good leaders and are happy to support policies that basically guarantee a catastrophic outcome.
The issue isn't so much antibiotics given to sick animals to make them well, it's the fact that adding a constant low dose of antibiotics to animal feed allows those animals to more efficiently convert feed into tasty, tasty muscle mass.

> Antibiotics are chemotherapeutic agents used for the clinical management of infectious diseases in humans, plants and animals. However a sizeable fraction of antibiotics produced every year all over the world is used for non-therapeutic purposes. In US alone, about 24.6 million pounds of antibiotics are used in animal agriculture annually and a substantial portion of this is used as growth promoters and not for the treatment of infections...

Evidences available in the literature speak volumes on the beneficial effects obtained from antibiotics used as a feed additive. Pigs supplemented with antibiotics in their feed require 10–15% less feed to achieve a desired level of growth.

Constantly feeding antibiotics to animals makes factory farms more profitable.

The big one is a Typescript implementation. Other than that, the plan is to support other models (e.g Llama) that can be fine-tuned.

Finally, other persistence layers like S3 and Redis, to support running on execution targets (like AWS Lambda and CloudFlare workers) that don’t have persistent storage.

I think it could be really interesting to support Vercel more tightly too. We currently support Vercel with Python, but I think Typescript + Redis would really enable serverless AI functions - which is where I think this project should go!
I'd say the difference is that all work is a commitment. Even free work. Just because you can break the contract any time you like, it doesn't make you free from the restrictions of it.

Hobbies are play, but play is a simulation of some other thing. If you're crafting something but not selling the crafts, you'll hit a point where you question your ability with it.

Tournaments are a nice hack around that, and usually what the financially independent have historically done. You compete for a prize. The prize closes the hobby loop.

But once you start doing tournaments, that draws you back into commitments.
Cooking with a compact set of portable kitchen tools and economized storage for basic foodstuffs and spices is absolutely not the same as living like a literal hobo. Again, millions, possibly billions of people live like this and often very comfortably. What you say is both plain condescending and all the worse in that for also being ignorant nonsense.

I’m trying to dig up the M17 messages on the chipsets, but until then - WiFi is incredibly popular and operates on ISM bands. Same with LoraWan, and I have seen some proprietary 900Mhz mesh devices (I think called Milo(?)).

The M17 project found some low cost transceivers that operate on a pretty low level, and I think those would be relevant for future development on ISM for people wanting to use encryption.
I don't drive, so getting to and from work is often more work than the actual work, plus, a lot of what I do isn't desk work.

I spend a lot more on on-the-go gear than office stuff.

* Tile Trackers

* Vacuum insulated water bottles, food jars, and a coffee mug

* A decent phone

* A MOLLE backpack(SOG Ninja) and accessories.

* A headlamp (Sofirn HS10, it's tiny and USB-C rechargeable)

* Zero drop barefoot shoes

* An ultra slim neck wallet

* An A5 6-ring planner for the rare occasions I'm using real paper

* Duplicate home and backpack copies of things like USB chargers

My latest purchase is some 1.8mm reflective cord.

Like there's the stuff that can be refactored because the changes are local, or the places to change are clear.

And then the stuff that is a lot harder to refactor because you would need to change code in a lot of places, and the places that need to be changed aren't clear. That's probably more the proper design of a codebase stuff.
I live in a space where I tend to talk with ppl about research every day or two (both academics and regular citizens). In case you value communication, know that you come across as way too unnecessarily confident to seem interesting to engage with. Take that as you'd like, coming from someone who learns from and shares with others regularly IRL

In case you're curious why: "pseudoscience" has a real meaning (not just an punchy and authoritative word to toss around to shut down discussion), and your mention of social darwinism comes across as a weirdly aggressive conversational closer
You misunderstand: work is not about a collection of individual contributions by skilled professionals, it's about convincing someone to give you time and money in exchange for providing the minimum satisfactory output. The client doesn't care how well or hard you work: he wants it asap for as little money as possible, and everything else in the chain between the client and you reacts to this tension.

If a manager never sees you, and you produce a difficult to sell output, then he's not gonna suffer reputational damage for your sake defending you and your reasons for being X or Y on the output. If you produce an obvious advantage, then yes, but it's not everyone, and not every year: you will need, at some point, for someone else to do something for you.

If not, no big deal anyway: you can just be fired and move on. But it's never gonna be about firm handshakes, it's about trust even in temporary failure.

The conspiracy theorists look more convincing on an initial read because they cherry pick evidence and often misrepresent it, too.

The one I ran into in college is the TIGHAR group, who have some unique theories about where Amelia Earhart's plane was lost. They sound very convincing... until you realize every piece of evidence is only examined from the perspective of how it proves their theory, and any other views are ignored or dismissed.

The folks who actually care about the truth, on the other hand, tend to qualify their evidence and admit to uncertainties.
A common counterargument is that organisms already have information stored in their DNA, which in turn has a noticeable impact on their behaviour. Plus the fact that they receive a large amount of sensory data which is often discounted in such debates.

Upfront, training costs 1000x more than inference - about 0.01/token vs 0.01/1000 tokens. But considering the user base size and the size of the training set - 15T tokens for GPT-4, I estimate the total inference cost becomes equal to training at around 10K tokens/user/month and 100M users.
