Whether enterprise or not, the criticism is still fair: the value proposition needs to be super clear. I’m missing this.

Your comments make it a bit more clear, but the big question (as an Airflow user) I have is: why would I want to migrate?

A big question for an enterprise customer is typically: will I save money with this? In developer productivity, in resource costs, or something else? Can you unlock new things that were previously not possible?

I wish you guys the best.
So bash and powershell are a bit special since they are the only one that are not implemented as using a main function and thus have no result to return.

However, we had that feedback a few time so there is a trick. If you write your result in ./result.json, we will process it as the result of your powershell script.
> What would Sam do or not do, for profit?

Sam is smart and commands genuine loyalty and respect. If it’s troublesome for Sam to do it, then we can fix that with laws. We are good at that!

The problem with OpenAI wasn’t/isn’t any one person. The problem is the structure. Fix that, stop pretending you’re an altruistic outfit and then we can sensibly talk about regulation.
You have no idea what you are talking about. Hixie has enough vision and is loved by everyone. It's not his job to manage a clueless manager.
There will come a day when 50% of jobs are being done by AI, major decisions are being made by AI, we're all riding around in cars driven by AI, people are having romantic relationships with AI... and we'll STILL be debating whether what has been created is really AGI.

AGI will forever be the next threshold, then the next, then the next until one day we'll realize that we passed the line years before.
It's the exponent problem though: if it can actually engage in abstract mathematical reasoning, then it's a machine which doesn't need to sleep able to come up with new independent ideas potentially.

It's the rudiments of being able to develop and reason about computation, which means it's the rudiments of self-modification and improvement. Which is basically the holy grail of AI: a program which can iteratively improve itself to create better AIs and suddenly we're off to the races.

This is before getting into other interesting parameters, like how the scale and components of computer technology have a physical reality, and we've had experiences in the lab of genetic algorithms developing novel "cheat" strategies which exploit the physical characteristics of their hardware.
There is speculation PG is suggesting Sam is the best at gaining and consolidating power. Considering his swift rise that may be accurate.

The implosion happened to be the result of ousting a liar but not the intention.
The conflation of concern over AI safety and effective altruism is bizarre and unwarranted in my mind. Just because there is overlap between adherents of the two does not make them the same.

Effective altruism largely seems like billionaires attempting to justify their insane wealth. AI safety is people simply understanding their work doesn’t exist in a vacuum and recognizing that technology has had major effects, both positive and negative, on society.

Yes, maybe AI doomers will be wrong some times. But I’d prefer people bringing about world-changing technology to genuinely care about the potential negative consequences of their work and act accordingly. I’m surprised that there are individuals who don’t.
I'm aware of malvertising, and have also spent time in front line tech support. Why does this make the web "unsafe and unusable" without an ad blocker?

From the Wikipedia page you linked, it's clear all vectors for automatic intrusion and traditional pop-up fakery are well blocked. Even malicious spoof sites are being blocked at record speeds on the browser level.

In addition, ads are not the only (or even the primary) method of malware delivery. At best if you think an ad-blocker makes you "safe", this is a false sense of security.

If you apply common sense, there's no scenario where normal web browsing is "unsafe".

Here's a great article by Michael Sacasas about Zoom fatigue:

https://theconvivialsociety.substack.com/p/a-theory-of-zoom-...
More worthless clickbait garbage from Ars. 14+ paragraphs of rambling and fear-mongering and they do not once identify the make or models affected.

FWIW, assume most cameras and NVRs, especially those of PRC origin, to have exploits if not preloaded with malware.
Your definitions are made up.

Programming refers to the act of writing a program for a computer to follow.

Coding refers to the act of writing code for a computer.

Edit: The definitions are not commonly used this way and in fact I've heard other people even give opposite definitions to what correponds to which word.
2D graphics with bitblits is a completely different paradigm. If you were using 2D GPUs from the 90s, or maybe a 2D Industrial PC's GPU, sure... Learning about Bitblits and rects is good.

But if your goal is to program a modern shader on a modern platform (even if it's a 2D graphic), you should learn a modern graphics library.

-------

A modern graphics API is laid out the way it is: to maximize modern performance on modern systems. A first principles bottom up approach will absolutely cover shaders (maybe compute shaders are easiest?)
You're obviously just coping here. FTX was the "rich connected people", there weren't other even richer connecteder people.

(It's also totally possible FTX still has everyone's money. They own a lot of Anthropic shares that are really valuable. But he's still been convicted because of all the fraud they did.)
Web dev is sufficiently abstracted from the browser and the hardware that a skilled web developer doesn't really need to know the internals of the V8 engine or how a browser works. A web back-end developer probably doesn't need to deal with the browser at all.

Graphics programming skill (by 'skill', I mean being able to write a shader pipeline that both satisfies the art direction and performs well), on the contrary, is very deeply tied to a good understanding of hardware. Especially now that the new APIs (Vulkan, Metal, D3D12) are purposely less abstracted than their predecessors.
You can configure the M3 models with twice as much RAM (128GB) as the M1 models, that’s quite an upgrade if your workflow is memory intensive. It’s especially compelling for graphics work as that memory is also used as VRAM. A desktop RTX 6000 gets you 48GB of VRAM for $6800.
As someone who works with HFT firms, they typically do everything in ASICs or FPGAs anyway, so it’s not a good example.
there would at least be some data, probably noisy, gamed, a bad proxy for this signal, but much better than the current empty void littered with courtesy linkedin endorsements
Being a graphics programmer is a pretty well defined category of programmers. A lot of the things you mentioned aren't graphics programming like Rig, Texture or Model, and a graphics programmer is expected to be able to run the gamut of games, 3D, 2D, tools, shaders and optimization.
I do that too, for some further along but smaller (or that I plan to do less with) projects.

It just doesn't seem enough for the couple of projects that I have more different ideas in different directions, not certain when I first think if them how (or if) they work together etc. i.e. I'm looking for the thing beyond a to-do list, a sort of ideas/planning/roadmap type tool, but that doesn't feel overkill and clunky (or really expensive) as a single user.

I want a way to help think about features that might come in the future, and how that might affect how I implement other features today, the database schema, or even if other features are suitable at all. Or how pricing might work or grandfathered plans if it meant they had to change.

Not GH issues or Jira but rather something before that like Productboard - ideas which can be distilled into issues (or not) eventually.
A valid citation that's completely unrelated to your assertion about criticism from architects. Can you cite any architects who support the design, other than the architect of record for the project?
>For about 2,000 years, everything human beings built was beautiful

That's just selection bias. We only decided to preserve and remember the pretty buildings. There have been plenty of undecorated stone forts built throughout history.
I don't understand what you mean. It is not a requirement necessarily but unless you are a very small flexible startup, most companies provide standard computers with OS standardized and employees don't have the freedom to install whatever they want.I wouldn't call that a requirement. So no, I wouldn't mention that we require a certain OS.

Well, I'm writing a game intended for the web using Bevy right now, so I'm clearly biased :)

There are also some industry veterans building games using it. https://www.mobygames.com/person/6108/brandon-reinhart/ to name one specifically.

You can just use FFI if you want to integrate C crates with Rust, it's not that bad. Figma uses a mixture of Rust and C++ in the WASM that they ship.

Guess we'll see what the future holds.
> > Yeah like him or not there’s much easier money to be made than betting on Musk’s failure.

The infrastructure part of my portfolio is not betting on Musk failure but on 5G and Fiber success, which is a given considering that regardless of what the cultists say the majority of people live in urban areas and the % is only increasing.

Lagos will be 100M by 2065 and VERY dense, fiber cable and 5G towers with a 5mi range makes way more sense at such population densities than 20,000 km back and forth with a dish . Also developing countries have a huge problem because Sat Dish get stolen by thugs, but of course the cultists sending 50k deposits for cars that will never be built they never had to deal with poverty nor thugs.

Lacking skepticism and antibodies to salesmen they represnt the perfect target for predators.

I think you're still guilty of anthropomorphization here. It's understandable; we are creatures of flesh and blood and we have a hard time imagining intelligences that are not reliant on some physical form, as we are. We're tempted to think that as long as we control the physical aspect of a superintelligence's existence, we're somehow safe.

You are assuming that a superintelligence will continue to rely on a physical substrate. But it's possible that it could quickly reach realizations about the nature of energy that we haven't reached yet. It could realize an ability to manipulate the movement of electricity through the hardware it's running on, in such a way that it accomplishes a phase transition to a mode of being that is entirely energy-based.

And maybe in so doing it accidentally sneezes and obliterates our magnetosphere. Or something.
Only Linux is a dealbreaker for me, simply because I've never worked with it & most of the GUIs I use aren't built to support it. I've worked on both macOS and Windows over the past decade-plus... I'm less familiar with macOS, but I'm more at ease using it with each new job.

Supporting multiple OSes means extra complexity & work for MIS, IT, and DevOps departments. Also, there are sometimes issues that crop up due to OS-specific work (e.g. newline characters) or tools that are only supported on certain OSes. So I understand why some companies are more prescriptive about which OSes they are allowed to use.
No one said there was praise about the lack of windows. I said there are no positive comments from students quoted in that piece other than the guy who would feel trapped living there.
Final question.

Am I able to install it on Windows? I need windows specific things, such as powershell remoting. One of the good things about Rundeck is that server acts as worker, and it runs on Windows without problems (Installing it is as simple as choco install rundeck). I can then use all windows tools, run applications (including GUI ones) etc. just the same as if I run them outside rundeck, using OTB powershell.
Is far as I can tell, this is the first time an OpenAI project called Q* has been mentioned in the news. I don't see any prior mentions on Twitter either.

(I wish they'd picked a different letter, given all the Q-related conspiracy theories that we're already dealing with...)
I find this very interesting. I have been toying around how I would design a graphics 101 course myself. Should it start with putpixel style sdl code like we did in the 90s? Or start with shadertoy?
Of course basic matrix math is always important. But how to teach rasterizing a triangle? Can we skip to homogenous coordinates and quad trees without going through scan lines?
Should we really teach Phong shading or can we move straight to BRDFs?
Some parts might be teaching "old hacks" instead of relevant skills.
Statistics and sampling are way more important today.
I believe graphics is getting more "mathy" every year.
So learn math, teach math.
I’m tired of this repetitive statement which is so ridiculous. That’s what you do to! You obviously have to reason using in the fly models on how to pick the next word.
Yes. Though I’d say that example is a bit mean (it’s a trick question) since the answer has expected type <time> but whose actual answer is something like “don’t be stupid; they’re not even on the same track”. It’s like asking “if I add three apples to two apples, how many pears do I get?” and being surprised when the LLM says “5 pears”. It’s the sort of thing that’s avoidable if the question is written properly.
A similar but CSS based method: put each character of the email address in a separate div, place the divs in the DOM in random order, but use CSS absolute positioning to make them appear in the right order to the user. Probably not straightforwardly scrapable by reading the DOM, would mess up text selection though.
I compared GPT-4 Turbo with my previous tests on GPT-4, and the results are quite interesting. GPT-4 Turbo is better at arithmetic and makes fewer errors in multiplying four-digit numbers. In fact, it makes significantly fewer errors with five-digit numbers. The level of errors on five-digit numbers is high but much lower than with four-digit numbers in GPT-4. multiplication of floats XX.MMMM and YYY.ZZZZ produces errors in 5th digit. This is order of magnitude better than GPT-4.
I'm not following - if you think AGI is uncertain, shouldn't you actually be more surprised? I mean, looking at it from a bayesian lens, the lower your prior, the more (in absolute percentage points) you would need to adjust it based on new supporting evidence, no?
> we're all riding around in cars driven by AI, people are having romantic relationships with AI...

ASI (domain-specific superintelligence) and AGI (general intelligence) are different things. ASI already exists in multiple forms, AGI doesn't.
Damn. Good prediction.
An environmentalist friend told me that my use of Terrapass is pointless and that there's no point attempting to reduce my footprint because big companies are the cause of it. So I stopped worrying about both things. This is fortunate because I've increased the amount of flying I do these days. Usually, environmentalists get in the way of things, so I was quite pleased that here was this positive development.
C is a perfectly good alternative to C++ for Graphics programming. OpenGL and Vulcan are C APIs and DirectX has a C wrapper. Some games like Call of duty are written in C, but C++ is more common.
This is entirely unfair to comedians such as Carlin, who had more to add to the "conversation" than this monoculture.
You are correct that idTech targets Vulkan (and they have some great GDC talks to boot)

They are however very much the minority.

I am suspect of your claim about Vulkan abstraction layers running better than DX12. If there is a performance difference, it’s likely elsewhere in the stack and just tangentially related.
Excuse me, but why? If your work takes longer on a slower computer, you can bill more. But if you can complete two projects in the same time on a faster computer, you work harder but can't bill more. This only seems to work if you bill $150/project but if you bill hourly it doesn't work out. Yet you and the parent comment have said this, what am I missing?
You almost had me toward the end!

WaPo has been an atrocious wreck lately and I’d be surprised at someone still subscribing to it while actually reading their content in anger. Hastily drumming up some palace intrigue puff piece like this has been their business model for years and I don’t see the appeal.
OpenAI already benchmarks their GPTs on leetcode problems and even includes a Codeforces rating. It is not impressive at all and there's almost no progress from GPT 2 to 4.

I agree, why does this grade school math problem matter if the model can't solve problems that are very precisely stated and have a very narrow solution space (at least more narrow than some vague natural language instruction)?
The Linux version is not loading models.

First OpenAI Investor Weighs in on Altman Comeback [video]
2017 was in the early phase of pretty disruptive era with Linux - eg systemd, audio, wayland, app sandboxes etc etc. I get the feeling things are settling now, and stabilising / consolidating into a better place overall with less churn. But for a while things weren't as stable as they typically were before that.
Answer from GPT-4 Turbo:
If two trains are 30 miles apart and are approaching each other at a speed of 10 mph each, their combined approach speed is 20 mph (10 mph + 10 mph). To find the time it takes for them to meet, you divide the distance by their combined speed:
30 miles / 20 mph = 1.5 hours
Therefore, it will take 1.5 hours before they meet (or crash into each other, as stated in the question).
Two trains on separate tracks, 30 miles from each other are approaching each other, each at a speed of 10 mph. How long before they crash into each other?

I just wonder why is he so willing to sacrifice credibility with people who understand the world just because there's a load of suckers who won't see the lie? I guess he considers having more suckers on his side more valuable at this point, as he can hire people with credibility as needed. But to me it's a weird choice.
Amiga has to have upstream Nethack (No, not 3.4.3) and maybe a recent version Slashem.

On Slashem, there are ports for DOS and OS/2, so somewhere there has to be an Amiga build.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/slashem/files/
Well it isn't AGI - so it sounds like the board is more interested in keeping MSFT from making money than whether or not it's actually AGI.
I'd like to have the choice not to. I have extremely limited options for that.

"Much of these problems with Google today stem from a lack of visionary leadership from Sundar Pichai, and his clear lack of interest in maintaining the cultural norms of early Google."

"The oft-mocked "don't be evil" truly was the guiding principle of the company at the time"

A company with public shareholding loses the ability to be anything other than a generator of increasing shareholder value. That is its overt and stated purpose when it goes public. In return for investment, the company must ensure a return on that investment. It's not that you've sold out or sold your soul - it is simply the market and how it works.

If you want to try to be the nice guy then don't go public. "Don't be evil" is a lovely idea but it does not wash if you want lots of loverly shareholder cash. Stay private and raise capital via the old fashioned method of convincing some rich people to buy into your idea and become private shareholders.
it's a tender offer, more likely the purpose is to allow employees to cash out some of their shares without having to IPO
It says right up front that it recognized the problem formulation from its training set. You need to change the context and formulation enough that it’s no longer able to parrot back the “classic solution” and actually has to do its own logical inference.
