Not really, no. The whole reason the fiasco occurred in the first place is because it's in a league of its own.

Bard and Claude are likely to be suggested, but the competency gap is palpable. I've tried using them and failed to find them sufficiently compelling to adopt into my workflow for programming tasks.
Disagree.

1) In a large-scale production scenario, you typically do not have the data, nor the interaction flow, to reproduce the bug locally. The idea is that you enable Call Stacking on the fly, when needed. Turn it off when not needed.

2) Having multiple runtime captures of the same endpoint across two different deployments or time periods allows you to quickly compare for logic or data changes (argument values and return values are visible).

3) Commenting on individual lines of execution allows for the team to have a specific discussion surrounding logic changes.
When do ideas get easier to find? – by Eric Gilliam
"Sacrificing the performance so a miniscule percentage of them can poke around a little easier?"

Wondering how to reconcile this with the never-ending didactic missives from software developers about writing code that others can easily understand. Generally, the affection for verbose languages and disdain for terse ones.

There is also a trust problem. How can we be sure that minification is only for the purpose of performance and not also for the purpose of obfuscation. For example, from the user's perspective, performance is routinely sacrificed to allow for advertising. Users must wait and allow their computer's resources and network bandwidth to be usurped for telemetry, ad auctions and ads they really do not want to look at. This is almost always orchestrated using Javascript.
Sure, Gate is somewhat common way to naming places. Not really related to trouble in article, but nice coincidence, we have Bishops and Gate.
Python can almost do this with Variadic Generics from Python 3.11; its missing an exception to the single-unpacking rule (which exists to prevent ambiguity) to allow unambiguous cases. Then you would have:

from typing import TypeVarTuple

Ts = TypeVarTuple("Ts”)
Us = TypeVarTuple("Us”)

def tconcat(
t1: tuple[*Ts],
t2: tuple[*Us]
) -> tuple[*Ts, *Us]: ...

That's why there's a whole movement of people dedicated to convincing people to donate to the most necessary and urgent problem of humanity and trying to decide what exactly is that.

What we chose to donate to are organizations like churches, museum, theaters, makerspaces, and the like. They enrich our lives in the neighborhoods we live in, but they're not exactly urgent as someone on the other side of the world dying to something perfectly preventable like cholera.

In a regular economy, every exchange is a two-way transaction. I give you something, you give me something (usually of perceived equal value).

In a gift economy. I gift you something. You gift someone something. That someone could be me, but if I don't need/want anything you need, then you just gift to someone else. If there are gifts going around all the time, all in good faith, then most people will receive what they need.

You see gift economies in families or friends all the time. People help others according to their abilities. My rich friend takes me out to an expensive dinner, poor me gets us lunch from that famous food truck. I nurse my uncle when he breaks his leg. He lets my brother's son to live with him for free during college. There is no accounting of how much anyone gave. Just give what you can.

I recommend reading Cory Doctorow's novel Walkaway which describes gift economies beautifully.
The thing you're missing is the "you're not the customer, you're the product."

The customer is the app developer or the advertiser -- the startup Apple is extracting 30% from, or the small business which just wants to get its name out but Google systematically excludes small websites from organic search results and requires you to pay a huge chunk of your revenue to be seen.

If your prospective customers have iPhones, you need Apple's permission or you're out of business. If your prospective customers use Google search, you pay them for advertising or you're invisible. You don't get to choose which phone or search engine they use, and they rarely if ever use more than one -- unlike retail stores where it's common for the same customer to shop at dozens of different stores.

If Walmart won't carry your products in their stores, you can sell them through Target and Amazon and a zillion other retailers. The same customers can get it from another store. If Apple won't carry your app, those customers have no other viable means to get it from you.

This isn't just "manipulative microtransactions for kids on games" -- it's the reason you can't use cryptocurrency or any competing payment network for in-app purchases. Are payments not an important industry for which we care about competition?

Apple basically murdered Tumblr by giving them an impossible choice between banning adult content (causing them to lose too much of their user base) or being banned from iPhones (causing them to lose too much of their user base). Regardless of how you feel about adult content, they have the power to do this over anything. Should they be able to destroy your social network or force you to censor if they don't like your politics? How does this not matter?

Fortunately I live in New Zealand where we collectively want to care for unfortunate people - even though sometimes the misfortune might be their own fault.

Yes, it costs me a car in taxes every year to pay for a first world government health system. But at least my country enabled me to be rich enough to do that. And I'm lucky to be healthy - for which I can thank my fellow citizens and past governments to a good extent.

I sincerely wish you the best of luck to be healthy and wealthy.
Doing one thing well is not a winning advice. You can do multiple things, it really depends on the execution and other factors. They are doing one that is workflows and doing it well.

I’ve found Anthropic’s Claud v2 quite good as a general purpose LLM assistant at a variety of tasks, including code generation and ideation.

Interesting to read this as an outsider and to pretty much confirm what you suspected. Very interesting is the take on Vic Gundotra. I knew him briefly on a personal level and he came across as a nice guy but you don't want to cross him. The comment on how he doesn't do well when things go wrong lines up perfectly with what my impressions were of him.
Then you must not think the job is difficult or impactful, as well.
Thanks, that’s really helpful - agreed on all accounts!
You should file a CVE for this exploit for the government agencies that still use the PDP-11, probably like the US nuclear arsenal command.

Joke's aside, I though this was an easy and fun read.
I'd say startups. At the very least, it seems like companies where the founder stays on after getting rich tend to do better. Avoid Day 2 companies.
I think it's a pretty smart move. Educational institutions don't have the engineering capacity to change their datacenters overnight. They'll be paying the higher fees for years to come.

as far as I can tell, it only executes the trace when asked. It's not an APM like newrelic. Most likely the trace meaningfully slows down the individual request.

When I was at ScoutAPM, we built a version of this that was stochastic instead of 100% predictable. We sampled the call stack every 10-50ms. Much lower overhead, and it caught the slower methods, which is quite helpful on its own, especially since slow behavior often isn't uniform, it happens on only a small handful of your biggest customers. But it certainly missed many fast executed methods.

Different approaches for sure, solve different issues.
> you want people to know your platform when they're done studying, so they can advocate for it in their jobs. Why would you destroy this revenue stream?

That was how Adobe ran for a looooong time, up until and including CS6. They didn't give a f..k about piracy beyond something that could trivially be circumvented by a keygen and a few well-placed /etc/hosts entries, and that was what made them the utterly dominant power in anything creative - people were used to years of working with Photoshop (a friend of mine started with photography at age 13!), and so they demanded from employers that they use Photoshop. Incidentally, that also was what kept Apple afloat before the iPod/iPhone days - Adobe stuff just worked fine on Apple hardware but was a nightmare on Windows, so people also demanded Macs for their work.

The advent of CC came once Adobe had achieved that lock-in and started milking its customers for all they were worth, and additionally they opened up a load of legitimate customers as well who didn't feel like dropping a few grand on Adobe stuff but who cares about 50$ a month?
> But once you achieve market dominance, your priorities have to shift. It's no longer "why wouldn't you try this" or "let's do the right thing." It's "why would you rock the boat and risk the nice thing we have?" It's not just about profit. Careers and incomes are at stake. People will get hurt.

I don't get this.

Why did they kill so many products which were running on standalone tracks? (at least in my opinion)

If I look at https://killedbygoogle.com I see for example "Stadia", "Podcasts", "Domains", etc... - in my opinion those projects would not conflict with their current main activities being Internet search & email service, respectively whoever is involved in it (ok, maybe excluding allocations of budget - but it's not that Google has currently liquidity problems so it's not that budget for existing depts would have to be reduced...).

How else would you build such a system? It's probably easier than evolving a way to execute DNA/RNA in a sandbox or heuristically evaluating it. Life already had a reliable, extendable, self managing database system, so easier to repurpose that!
I just asked YouChat which LLM powers it and it responded by saying OpenAI's GPT3.
It's negotiation, which is absolutely selling. The dealership was counting on me accepting the price hike because the car I wanted was rare and in-demand, and I had already made some commitment to the process by filling out initial paperwork. I knew a manager still needed to approve the terms, but the sales rep made it sound like it was certain.

Turns out this is an incredibly common car sales tactic, enough so that it was explicitly called out in the aforementioned book.

Rather than harumph about how unfair it is, I decided it was better to just learn how to play the game. Unwilling participant or not, fair or not, it's better to come prepared than feel like you're getting taken advantage of.
That's some bizarre logic. Especially given this submission is actually about India trying to kill a guy in the US... I guess the US has no sway over the US. Those Americans really wish they had that sort of leverage.

Canada is completing its investigation, at which point they'll name various Indian government agents and charge them with murder. India will declare diplomatic immunity. Do you really think the horrendously corrupt Modi government is going to investigate its own actions in any meaningful or viable way?

And just to be clear, the US announcing what they did is clearly putting its full weight behind Canada's findings.

This from DeepMind:

DiLoCo: Distributed Low-Communication Training of Language Models - https://arxiv.org/pdf/2311.08105.pdf

From the first author on Twitter:
"It could quite a big deal for people who don't have access to a colocated cluster of GPUs:

e.g. with DiLoCo you could train your model, with data-parallelism, across all GPU providers, looking in real-time for the cheapest price, even if pre-emptable, even across continents"

Do you have a link to that thread?
I feel like “an excuse to skimp” has negative connotations but another way of phrasing it is “getting every bit of performance possible out of the package”.

I just listened to a few reviews of the Panasonic G9ii and it has computational photography features too, but that’s not to skimp on optics (very good lenses are available) it is again to get the maximum performance out of the system.

Why would you not spend some compute power to make your camera hardware more versatile?
I think these type of teams are a good way to give talented devs a break from the grind at bigger companies, even if the chances of a new product is low.

It doesn't seem to say much at all, which isn't surprising. Without having full details though, the optics isn't good, and I do feel this will have a lasting damage to Altman and a few others as well. It isn't just the board.
All busieness and marketing advice aside, let me tell you the brutal truth from an average iPhone user, poor gym enthisiast and former b2c product manager perspective.

Your app looks like a weak vitamin, not a pain killer.

Looking at website, appstore screenshots and descriptions I got a relatively vague, generic and weak message "train smarter".

- What's in it for me?

- What exactly would I gain by wasting my time, focus and money on yet another AI gimmick?

- Who is this app made for exactly (professional athletes, lazy bums like me, weight loss enthusiasts, amateur bodybuilders, powerlifters, those dreaming of winning iron man...)?

I don't read any good and specific answers on these questions (even if I for a moment forget that 99% of amateur training success is just about consistency not "smartness") and don't want to even bother installing the app.

This is what b2c PMF is about - about the fit (the click) in user's head.

As others have mentioned, it's not there yet.

One good thing we can hope to expect from the OpenAI drama is that it is now very clear that we need truly open and powerful models. A new generation of startups can't be bottlenecked so critically on a single service. Hopefully OpenAI employees see this as well and do what they can to help decentralize generative AI.
When there is such a huge scale difference between the entity that causes harm and the person/group harmed, it just doesn't register. E.g. if you wanted down the sidewalk and inadvertently stepped on a cockroach because you were thinking about something else, you'd probably not even notice. If the cockroach's relatives confronted you as a horrible, evil entity hell-bent on destruction, you'd probably not have even conceived of any damage you were doing; you feel innocent, maybe even offended. And you were busy with something huger and way more important! You were on your phone negotiating a really important business deal, what the heck is a cockroach to you?

Big companies steamroll people all the time. Least of all their worries is the privacy and security of people they don't make money from.

I think you're pushing upon an idea that's philosophically more significant than "how do we fix/replace SSNs". We really need to start talking about how to verify who a human actually is. I don't see a future where we just have to remember some shitty, leakable password when more and more things are entering some sort of password-based trust system.

I have no ideas for implementation, I just think we're having the wrong conversation.
