chatGPT is very much aware that it's looking at a shadow and it deduces what's beyond the shadow by looking at millions of different permutations of the shadow.

Additionally breaking the fourth wall is trivial to it. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by fourth wall but chatGPT can definitely talk about it's own existence.

In general Google sucks in creating new consumer offerings. So it's not about resources for sure. I guess it's about synergy, culture, taste and talent.

IP protection is an entirely separate thing and has a huge body of case law around it already. Non compete and non solicitation do not allow employees to take IP with them, as evidenced by the many cases against tech employees who tried to do that.

And no, taking a client list with you is not how this works in consulting. You take the client you currently work for and have a relationship with and offer them a better deal to work with you independently. After that you’re on your own to solicit and win new clients.
One day of dirty, sweaty work in the crawlspace, compared to possibly years of not staring at ugly cables nailed to the walls...

But to answer your question: depending on distance, you can consider using rigid plastic conduit, and thread the cable using that through the crawlspace, assuming you have access at the origin and destination. This is how we thread cable through a ceiling without any crawl space (flat roof)
That’s third-party/unofficial (and unaffiliated with NASA, despite the name) coverage. AFAIK they do not have access to all the cameras/drones/animations that the “real” SpaceX coverage does.
Nope. Anyone can build iPhone quality devices in China. They will just cost as much as an iPhone.

What happpens is that there is a demand for cheap crap so that's what they design in China. If you were willing to pay Apple level prices for a Chinese brand they'd build you Apple level quality.
By way of comparison, a loaded M1 Abrams tank weighs about the same. The wear and tear on roads will be enormous, and the extra particulates from the greatly increased tire wear are also concerning.
Oh wow, he's also an effective altruist?! Didn't know that. It's so bad. My take is that there's nothing more hypocritical, and therefore, arguably, more evil than this.

Yes we understood your idea the first time around. And you still miss the point. It might not be for you but many individuals genuinely love their work. Either because they founded it, like the area of work, the people, or some combination.

It’s ok to not enjoy it yourself. Different strokes for different folks.

I don’t think it should be culturally championed but I don’t see it as an immediate red flag especially in the case of a bleeding edge company like OpenAI.
I think we’ll look back on this in the future as evidence of political infighting and anti-progressivism leading to a decline of the USA.

If I'm a waiter in a restaurant there should be nothing to stop me telling the customers that I'm going to a better restaurant and they should come and try it. Will the boss be annoyed? Yes. Should he be allowed to stop me? No.

In the real world there is no salesman who thinks of the clients as belonging to the company. They all know that sales relationships are personal. The contracts may say one thing, but the reality is different. The law ought to be to allow free association. Customers lose out when they are not offered better deals.

I think the statement is for investors to assure them that they have solid legal contracts with OpenAI that will carry on regardless of what happens in OpenAI's leadership.
I tried to port Yuzu to MacOS. There's still an old PR for it somewhere in the GitHub. I got some 2d games booting.

The main problem is simply that none of the core devs have a mac!

The other big hurdle is the lack of some shader types on metal. For example, geometry shaders are used in Mario, but not available. They'd have to be emulated with compute shaders.

The CPU emulation side is pretty easily compatible.

As someone who just started writing regularly a few weeks ago this piece is very encouraging!

I'm very curious if I will be able to make writing a habit. In the past I often quit new behaviors after a few months.

I discovered this quitting behavior a year ago and since I'm aware of it I found a lot of examples where this happened in my past. Now I see everything I start as part of a big experiment to test which things stick. So that I can learn which properties of a habit make it stick with me.
This is just untrue.
Sleep apnea doesn't always affect driving. I have it pretty bad and I would never fall asleep. I have a cpap machine though which makes sure I sleep well. I do have a license and I didn't mention it but the state doctor is aware so I'd imagine they'd share that. Also I don't own a car and haven't driven for years (I hate driving)

But apnea doesn't cause you to fall asleep or faint or something. It just makes your sleep really rotten because you stop breathing and keep waking up. So there's a higher chance of being tired.

However people without apnea can also be tired, like those with irregular shifts.
Thanks. Cool to see the whole path.

Profit Incentives. By nature humans are a contradictory creatures capable of both good and evil. In the medical field the evil part gets maximized because they see so many patients they get lazy and lose the desire to do good and they also lose sensitivity against avoiding evil. So what happens is they will lie for more money. Very common.

Dehumanization is a term about getting rid of the evil and the good because being human is about both evil and good. That's not what the parent is doing. You're the one interpreting humanity through a dehumanizing lens. You should expect immorality and incompetence from humanity by default. Any other view is dehumanizing.
> It started with a rather cryptic and not very pleasant-sounding blog post from the company announcing a leadership transition. Here are the most revealing bits:

That doesn't seem to be the most revealing bits at all. Personally, the last part is what is the most revealing, as it reaffirms the boards commitment to the mission they initially declared:

> OpenAI was founded as a non-profit in 2015 with the core mission of ensuring that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. In 2019, OpenAI restructured to ensure that the company could raise capital in pursuit of this mission, while preserving the nonprofit's mission, governance, and oversight. The majority of the board is independent, and the independent directors do not hold equity in OpenAI. While the company has experienced dramatic growth, it remains the fundamental governance responsibility of the board to advance OpenAI’s mission and preserve the principles of its Charter.

Between the lines, that paragraph is giving us the background to why the firing was necessary.

The milieu in which Apple came to fruitition was full of young small microcomputer shops. So it's not like Woz invented the microcomputer for the masses - his contribution was critical for early Apple for sure, but the market had tons of alternatives as well. Without Apple II it's hard to say were Jobs and Wozniak would have turned out. Jobs is such a unique, driven figure that I'm fairly sure he would have created a lasting impression on the market even without Woz. This is not to say Woz was insighnificant - but rather the 1970's Silicon Valley had tons of people with Woz's acumen (not to disparage their achievements) but only few tech luminaries who obviously were not one trick ponies but managed to build their industrial legacy over decades.

I am massively bullish LLMs but this is hyperbole.

Smartphones changed day to day human life more profoundly than anything since the steam engine.
Nothing "icky" about it. Emulators are alternative compatible implementations of the consoles. They have every right to straight up compete with the real things even on day one. Look into the history of bleem and virtual game station. Back then emulators used to be literally sold on the market and not one of these corporations ever dared to straight up assert that they were illegal. They sued on complete bullshit grounds like comparison screenshots which the courts decided was legal comparative advertising. They even decided that it was fair use to dump the playstation BIOS for the purpose of reverse engineering it to gain access to the unprotected knowledge within.

My Samsung watch already has all the sensors it needs too for at least a preliminary diagnosis. SpO2, blood pressure (guesstimate), movement, etc

For a full diagnosis you really need a full sleep study though. A smartwatch is just an indication.
Kindle now accepts epub files directly. Why would you need this app anymore ?
Haha, that reminds me a lot of this quote from an Atlantic article on Freeman Dyson:

I asked him whether as a boy he had speculated much about his gift. Had he asked himself why he had this special power? Why he was so bright?

Dyson is almost infallibly a modest and self-effacing man, but tonight his eyes were blank with fatigue, and his answer was uncharacteristic.

“That’s not how the question phrases itself,” he said. “The question is: why is everyone else so stupid?”
I would assume Blade Runner
That breakthrough would not be possible without ubiquity of personal computing at home and in your pocket, though, which seems like the bigger change in the last two decades.
This looks really neat. I've definitely thought of "Duolingo for X" project ideas that I only wish I had the time to actually develop.

Just a heads-up that there isn’t much new in here if you’ve been following the saga on Twitter and have seen Brockman’s and Swisher’s tweets and are aware of the other recent departures. It’s mainly a summary of tweets. Not criticizing, just trying to save you a click if you’re following in real-time.
This is exactly the right question. If quant firms make the world a better place by tightening spreads - a common justification - then wouldn't we get an even better place if everyone knew about these strategies?

> just as good as the ones that are 99% effective

How many vaccines do you think are 99% effective? Or even 90%?

The covid vaccine researchers would've been happy if it had only been 50% effective.
> So the solution is that employees should only be able to work for one employer in their career?

What makes you suggest that? If I understand correctly after you leave one of the quant firms you end up having to spend X months not working in the industry getting base pay. Which seems like a very reasonable deal.
Old games not, but new games do need these things known as optimisations to run well, or eve at all, you know.

We give shit to Microsoft for W11 needing quite modern hardware even though the 10 year old W10 will still keep working after support stops, so why don't we hold HW manufacturers to a similar standard for supporting their shit longer than a year?

So forgive me for feeling stabbed in the back by being dumped on only a year after purchase.
Thank you for insights. I know how hard it could be to design pluggable backends to fulfill different scaling requirements. Local development hurdles are a real chore, good luck with taming the beast!

Of course is it not a common problem. Calibre wouldn't be so popular otherwise.

And some hundreds book's is not much, unless you change all of them at once. The probability of loses depends on the number of changes. One reason seems poorly implemented writing of data, and lousy communication of pending changes. At least it was the case 2-3 years ago when I last looked at this. But I guess, this is part of the questionable UI..

Impler allows you to embed data import widget into your app, with the facility to upload, map, and validate data using a hybrid validation engine. Impler is designed to import and validate thousands of records in seconds.

Impler is open-source. Check it out at https://github.com/implerhq/impler.io

Please try the product and offer your honest opinion if you have a moment. I really want to improve this product, feel free to share any thoughts you have:)
Stayed up all night looking forward to this. Fingers crossed for success on hotstaging - I think that's what everyone is most worried about. I read that due to the continuous thrust with hotstaging they can carry more payload with that design, rather than losing upward momentum during stage separation.

Gosh this is exciting.

Language modelling, token prediction. It's not much different from generating code in a particular programming language; given examples, learn the patterns and repeat them. There's no self-awareness or consciousness or understanding or even the concept of capabilities, just predicting text.
You can bypass the compositor with X11 hw acceleration features too. But what about Wayland? I thought apps always go through the compositor there. As shown eg in the diagram at https://www.apertis.org/architecture/wayland_compositors/

Drawing directly from app to kernel graphics buffers (or hw backed surfaces) and participating in composition are orthogonal I think. The compositor may be compositing the kernel or hw backed surfaces.

Blood flow is the most likely explanation there. The simple act of activating those muscles forces blood flow, which can often be restricted in a healing area. Same reason we apply warmth to an area and encourage light massage.

Personally, I think they serve different needs. I see Moodle and Opigno as great tools for traditional learning methods (video and text based).

I struggle with that kind of learning experience and I think I'm not alone. Even using something like H5P, the overall user experience is far from what Duolingo offers for language learning.

Plus, I find the overall UX too confusing. UneeBee is far from good but I hope it will have much better user experience than traditional learning tools.

My vision for the long-term is to make it more practical too: A hands-on tool where we can learn by doing and seeing how things work in real-life. That's very hard to accomplish on tools like Moodle and Opigno.

But, to be clear, I don't think (and I don't aim) to replace those tools. I think UneeBee (and its cloud offerings) will be an additional tool.

> Schools especially may use a learning platform for 10+ years, at least when authoring with H5P they are not stuck in a single platform anymore. What's your solution for this problem?

Tbh, I don't have a solution for this problem yet and I agree that's an issue. I think having an open plugin system like WordPress will help but I'm not sure how this would work yet. Always open to ideas.
I think the issue here is what voluntary means.

It's not black or white. You don't have to be held at gunpoint for something to be involuntary, and nobody is ever so free of concerns that everything they do is entirely voluntary.
Your point hinged on billions in profit. Which you just made up, or assumed to be true for some reason. I don't think any of your points stand. Don't use fact you haven't checked as preconditions for points you want to make.
