[23][28] Tensor Cores are available since the Nvidia Volta GPU microarchitecture, which was first used on the Tesla V100 line of products.[29] They are used for doing fused multiply-add (FMA) operations that are used extensively in neural network calculations for applying a large series of multiplications on weights, followed by the addition of a bias. Tensor cores can operate on FP16, INT8, INT4, and INT1 data types.

Tourism numbers are rapidly approaching pre-pandemic highs[1], with the main inertia being Asian tourism, not a lack of hotel availability.

The city really shouldn't be attempting to house migrants in midtown Manhattan, but doing so isn't actually appearing to hurt tourism numbers.

That bakery complaining about the gay wedding cake would make the same complaint: “This is forced labor!”
Yeah it's a huge coincidence that they get brought up again recently & now this happens what seems like out the blue.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any insight into the UAW. I hope they add value in some way. Unions should adapt to the needs of the sector they’re in so I do expect it’s fairly different from the trades. There’s skilled labor still involved at some level.

My point was just to highlight that unions can and, in some cases are, beneficial to the employer even in the US. That’s not to say all unions are great. These discussions tend to lack nuance.
So it is, I didn't know that. In that case the other poster point stands, I'm guessing they used the word to indicate the magic of the network?
ADL showed a lot of ethnic bias in "exposing" hamas simpatizers compared to the demographics of such simpatizers. This organization and others (ACLU,BLM,...) hide behind "mighty missions" to covertly push narratives of its boards, revolving doors to political/influential positions.

Usually such organizations focus mostly on "awareness" (manufactured consent, political propaganda) and fund raising ( guilt based extortions and publicity stunts / tax write off for corpos), most of their funds get eaten in administrative (good salaries) / fund raising expenses instead of helping whatever cause
This reminds me of 1985
Wow I wonder what the sentiment / morale on the inside of OpenAI right now is like.
That's a fascinating question. I looked into this and haven't a clue, other than Joseph Gordon-Levitt's wife (?). If it's the same person, then she is a "tech-entrepreneur" with a surprising amount of liquidity and automatic privilege and titles despite no obvious achievement (unless you consider title-gathering an achievement).
OpenAI's Board Pushes Out Sam Altman, Its High-Profile CEO
This is clearly the AGI taking its first publicly visible action :)
SUVs are being sold like candy, and they are heavier than your regular sedan. This is especially so in the US, where it's not just SUVs but also trucks, and they are both bigger and heavier than in Europe. Being heavy is not exclusive to EVs.

Your location may be different, but what you are describing is not universal or even common in my experience working in multiple states. Yes, it is absolutely true that there should be a higher barrier to entry and even after "first renewal" (which is normally a second round of education), there isn't enough training before we let new agents loose into the world. That said - in every state I'm aware of, you work under a licensed broker who has additional licensing, training, and legal responsibility. Until you've reached that level of licensing it is not possible to set up your own brokerage. I've seen a work around where a non-licensed business owner paid someone to be their broker, but that regardless there has to be someone with the right licensing running the business.

Also - whether MLS members must also be Realtors is a rule of the MLS and not a universal requirement. The NAR, nor MLSs, do not set commissions. In fact, much of the MLS rule changes in recent years that I've observed have been about making sure non-Realtor licensees have market access. It's right there in our paperwork that I show clients where we ask permission so that the seller knows who will be entering their home.
From the website:

I stopped reading right there. This kind of race-baiting adds zero context to the story (which may or may not be true).

This came out of left field. Anyone share some light on why? The article doesn't include any specifics
The thing is, it's not gibberish. A sufficiently small language model can be understood by humans: https://twitter.com/karpathy/status/1645115622517542913

The explanation is perfectly sensical, just too complex for humans to understand as the model scales up.

The thing you're looking for - a reductive explanation of the weights of a ANN that's easy to fit in your head, does not exist. If it were simple enough to satisfy your demands, it wouldn't work at all.
Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

If you use the principle of least power to make fundamental architectural decisions, you'll get stuck, very soon and very often when the requirements change.

People used to understand that too. But limited functionality frameworks became too enticing to ignore as a user (of the framework), and to sell as a developer. That lead the way into the stuff we have today, that are extendable limited functionality frameworks where the amount of functionality is so large that one hopes never to exceed it.
> My mortgage is at 2.25% and my savings account gives me 5%

This is a great situation to be in. You should not be making any extra mortgage payments that you don't have to.
I agree with your points, but would also like to point out humans are not exposed to the general web as infants, and only a curated exposure until they become smart enough get through the various age restrictions placed weakly here and there.

Children's initial years, being basically lied to about the nature of the adult world, is where their sophisticated inference comes from. The internal intellectual conflict when one realizes it is actually good to tell children the world is a nice, fair, happy place - once figuring out it is not. That right there, I theorize, is where our sophisticated inference is created: we realize our own dynamic minds. We realize the necessity to seat concepts of "a fair world" into people before allowing them to mentally mature and learn it is not.
Would you say fossil fuels are not sustainable, given they are subsidized with trillions of dollars every year?

Nah, vram is definitely the main constraint for most people trying to do local inference of LLMs. If you look at a lot of the local LLM communities, for people who aren't super interested in training, many people suggest the M2 Ultra or M3 Max with > 128GB of unified RAM just because it has so much memory. Again, you might not be able to train or fine tune as well, but the first step is just being able to keep the weights in memory. Inference isn't that computationally intensive relative to just how much RAM you need.
I'm certain this logic only applies to mega cities. The vast majority of smaller cities and towns are like one or two streets of high density and the rest is suburban or rural. There's not actually anyone in the 'city' to subsidize those around it.
It's clear that neither Sam nor his sister[0] wants to discuss this.

While probably true, I would love to see the traditional car dealership business model go away. The only reason anymore to have a dealer is a place to test drive, and you do not need a huge lot full of cars for that.
yeah, this is about as harsh as corporate press releases get in terms of removing an executive. There has to be some majorly bad news coming out about Altman for them to not give him the standard "we are mutually parting ways"
That is pretty cool, it has definitely been an interesting electric truck week. I especially like Volvo USA's Electric VNR series (https://www.volvotrucks.us/trucks/vnr-electric/).

As someone who tries to curate a wider notification network of new technologies, I found this 'hole' in my sources on electric truck availability/deployment kind of notable. Now I'm going to need to find some sort of 'Transport News' type publication that summarizes these things monthly or quarterly :-).
Risk. Where have you factored the risk?

Let's pretend you have your house paid off. Would you borrow against your fully paid-off house at 2.25% interest to put into a savings account at 5% return? The terms involve someone else owning part of your house, and could force you out if they don't get paid. Does that sound like a good plan to you? If you don't think it is, that's risk, but that's what you're effectively doing right now.
I would really, really love to be able to play Half-Life again for the first time.

I feel the same way about the first Bioshock, and about the early years of World of Warcraft. Those two are from a bit later obviously, but the three of them really raised the bar for me personally in what was possible in a game.

With HL, it was how immersive the world was, and how very strange and complex the story turned out to be.

With Bioshock, it was the story above all, and how for the first time I was taken in by an "unreliable narrator" in a video game. The reveal around "would you kindly" was really shocking to me, like a good book can be.

With WoW, it was everything, but entering Ironforge for the first time was just a stunning moment for me in particular.
> Human rights. It's a metaphysical spook with no grounding in the natural world

human rights has no grounding anywhere but the natural world

And its grounding is quite solid. It's been talked about for many millennia. And for example, saying that slaves or serfs have no rights is itself an acknowledgement of human rights, an indication that it makes sense to consider that humans might be worthy of rights. There isn't really any definition of the word "rights" except that it starts with human rights.
I think this is a legitimate question. There seems to be little public information about this board member, besides that they are married to a celebrity.
Sam's out, man.
A lot of people were critical of his rise to stardom with openai but this is a cold move.
My tesla model s is about 10 years old now and it's cost of ownership is far lower than any gasoline car I have had. These cars were expensive to buy (but getting cheaper) but are far far far cheaper to own. You can look at the article you are commenting on and see that economists are predicting that total cost of ownership of EVs will be lower than gasoline cars by 2025.

As far as the cybertruck ... this is just the stupidity elon musk has been affected by lately. The cybertruck body is supposed to be made by a fancy new method which Tesla has a lot of problems bringing to mass manufacturing. Rivian is making ev trucks and suvs that are quite popular.
I'll share my Immich setup in case it helps someone.

To take care of all setup and maintenance complexity I installed cloudron.io
and then installed the Immich app.

On paper, Sam Altman would have made everyone on the board billionaires. For them to vote him out in this manner indicates that he must have done something egregious to jeopardize that.

Lying on P&L, stock sale agreements, or turning down an acquisition offer under difficult circumstances seems likely.
Altman is not the reason for their success. I would not place him in the same sentence as SJ.

The is nothing "anti-white" about acknowledging race based privilege in a given society.
Update: Greg Brockman is also out, which makes me think it's more than just a Sam scandal.
Tech industry was praising him left and right. Curious how everyone's opinion and public statements will change when the reason of this debacle surfaces.
The word “antisemitism” was popularized in late 19th century Germany by Jew-haters looking for a ‘scientific’ racial justification, since the traditional religious justification was becoming unfashionable. It has never meant anything else.

“Semitic”, on its own, is a language group. But for some reason I can't possibly imagine, nobody ever says “Ethiopians are semites too”.
> the entire US economy is functionally built to transfer wealth from young to old.

Until the old die, which they inevitably do, and then the transfer completes the cycle back to the young.

>largest, wealthiest population of non-working adults (retirees)

What does that have to do with affordability?

Most of the current income of these "retirees" is based on the work they did earlier in life (Soc. Security[0], 401k/IRA withdrawals). Further, you seem to be conflating "non-working" with being non-paid. Many of these retirees are providing unpaid daycare to grandchildren, unpaid assisted living service to other elder family members, or volunteer positions in the community.

[0]Yes, I understand that today's Soc. Security is funded mostly by today's wage earners, but not all of it. On an inflation adjusted basis, a good chunk of Soc. Sec. benefit is just the taxpayer's own FICA taxes that have been earning interest over time coming back to them, as well as the income taxes they pay on those very same Soc. Security benefits.
The Game of Rat and Dragon (1955) – Cordwainer Smith
I'm a bit beat up by the last week (internal issues) or the last 1-2 years between the swift CentOS8 switch, various CPU vulns, Log4Shell and all the other jazz.

My first thought is: C'mon. The company has just invested time to integrate with OpenAI. Just do it. Just announce that 200%+ price increase on everything with a scapegoat intermediate CEO. Or make it more so it hurts more, because of profit, so you can dial back a pity to be the good guys.
Paul Linebarger (aka Cordwainer Smith) was an interesting guy. Among other things he was heavily involved in developing psychological warfare techniques for the US military. He was also a close adviser to Chiang Kai-shek and the godson of Sun Yat-sen, the first leader of the Kuomintang

Any concept of ownership beyond "what is possessed and am in physically controlled" is artificial. The law of nature is that might makes right.

I think you're confused. I'm talking about the proportion of human people that own a home. Your link and plot is talking about the proportion of homes the owner lives in.

>"The homeownership rate is the proportion of households that is owner-occupied."
Well obviously middle class people shouldn't be allowed to go sailing if that conflicts with urban planning and climate justice goals. Such activities should be restricted to the elites who can afford to keep their private yachts moored in the local marina. All for the greater good.
It doesn't have to be that he was actually caught in a scandal. It could be that the board was investigating some serious accusation, and he was not cooperative and forthright, which they might have no patience for.

I invented a saying to describe this common occurrence: "Sometimes the cover-up is worse than the crime."
"not consistently candid in his communications with the board" what does that even mean? lol
Somewhat hidden beneath the huge headline of Altman being kicked out is that Brockman (chairman) is also out. Which could indicate something more systemically wrong than just a typical "CEO did something bad" situation.

> As a part of this transition, Greg Brockman will be stepping down as chairman of the board and will remain in his role at the company, reporting to the CEO.
Howdy, I'm the author: have you tried the latest alpha build? (My personal library is 500k assets, so 134k should be fine, especially if the library db is on SSD).

Literally every PhotoStructure version has made improvements to avoid sync from "getting stuck." See https://photostructure.com/about/2023-release-notes/ for examples.

I've got:

1. Timeouts on literally every operation, with retry heuristics based on _how_ it timed out

2. A persistent work queue, so reboots can continue where it left off

3. A persistent progress queue, so you can watch progress on the home page

4. A watchdog service to kick-restart sync if it gets "stuck"

5. Sync reports (in CSV format) that you can open and see what it's doing at a very granular level (updated as progress is made)

If you're still stuck with the latest alpha, please do report it either on https://forum.photostructure.com or on https://photostructure.com/go/discord
According to the article you linked, the 'white people' definition was in use from 2020-2022, and then they broadened the definition in 2022:

"Since 2020, the ADL had described racism as 'the marginalization and/or oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges White people.'"

"As of Friday [February 4th 2022], the group’s new and 'interim' definition states that racism 'occurs when individuals or institutions show more favorable evaluation or treatment of an individual or group based on race or ethnicity.'"
I think the lower 2022 numbers reported for Moxie Marlinspike reflect that he was only involved as CEO until February 2022, so $80k would make sense as ~2 months of salary before Meredith Whittaker stepped up to the role.
Sounds reasonable.

People hold IP in LLCs all the time. Obviously, though, the outcome depends on TW law and its loopholes as much as the IRS and state law. And the cheapest US LLC services just won't have any clue about any of that.

What, wat, WAAAT? Given the current growth of OpenAI, this is huge news. And this one is shaking the planet
The guy in this thread provided a link to strongtowns, there are other sources too, but I suggest starting with it since they cover most of what I'we written.

For me, mass catastrophe is not just referring to economic side(imo failing to maintain car infra bc it costs too much at some point bc of low density of population & high wear of the roads is pretty bad) but also the time lost on travel compounded over years for all ppl bc of the spread, the isolation of the ppl from each other, limited mobility options for old ppl or ppl with disabilities, higher pollution (even if we replace all cars with electro, it doesn't solve pollution fully, bc of tire wear particles, tonns of asphalt that should be renewed bc of many cars, etc...). When added all together, the image is not looking good. Us can 'afford' this bc of usd/dollar, loans and their economic position globally(when I write afford I mean they can afford to ignore the problem, at least for some time) but for other countries it may result in an economic suicide
As the article notes--and I would have strongly suspected--the US also has long mortgage terms. With 30 year fixed mortgages being the norm, that means that someone in their early thirties who gets a mortgage probably won't pay it off until basically retirement age. (Leaving aside refinancing/moving and getting a new mortgage, early payoffs, etc. But very few people are probably either refinancing or paying off early at the moment.)
I wonder if this has anything to do with Altman begging the US govt to regulate them and effectively build a moat for em.
That's a positive market move, because EV prices have been stupidly high and out of reach for most people in the market for a car. Manufacturers need to to focus on cost and scale, the thing they are, in theory, good at. Competitive pressures should drive the industry to achieve those things.
"he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board" = "He lied to us about something important"

Murati's selection as interim CEO is a surprise and might be an attempt to distance the company from whatever the board is claiming Altman lied about.

The ADL also defines racism as something that only white people are capable of.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/04/us/anti-defamation-league-rac...
They changed the definition in 2022 from: "Racism is the belief that a particular race is superior or inferior to another, that a person’s social and moral traits are predetermined by his or her inborn biological characteristics. Racial separatism is the belief, most of the time based on racism, that different races should remain segregated and apart from one another."
to "The marginalization and/or oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges white people."
