To be clear, me taking over the release engineering team a few days before the release announcement was entirely coincidental timing.
I'm super excited to see Roc up on HN.

I like the 'be fast' and 'be haskell like' approach.

I see you have an Earthfile in the repo. Let me know if you have any Earthly feedback or if I can help with the build in any way, @rtfeldman.

( We've been working on making Earthly faster for Rust builds by using cache mounts. )
Yes, and if that is so I'm sure there are meeting minutes that document this carefully, and that the fall-out from firing the CEO on the spot was duly considered and deemed acceptable. But without that kind of cover they have a real problem.

These things are all about balance: can we do it? do we have to do it? is there another solution? and if we have to do it do we have to do it now or is there a more orderly way in which it can be done? And so on. And that's the sort of deliberation that shows that you took your job as board member serious. Absent that you are open to liability.

And with Ilya defecting the chances of that liability materializing increases.
At this point, I think there's quite a lot of "breach fatigue" now where the general public doesn't care about these stories. It's just "oh, I guess I get another year of free identity theft services".
That is not what typst is though, it really is just a language and a compiler which you can just run in your commandline (and a fast one at that). There is that flashy web interface, but that is separate from typst itself, but you don't need to use that, it really is a latex replacement.
Didn't the anti israel/pro hamas demonstrations all across western europe kinda give merit to that statement. A lot of the people there were recent (1-2 generation) migrants into Europe.

Or what is happening in US academia?
> sweeping up Ilya in the hysteria who now seems to regret taking part

Awww poor Ilya is innocent. He didn't see it coming. You shouldn't expect that from him!!
Is there outrage when a clothes store puts the items they haven't been able to shift onto the sales rack? Is there outrage when a grocery store puts discount stickers on the food that's approaching its sell by date? Dynamic pricing is a fact of life in very many sectors.
I don't see the comparison here. You had bluetooth audio + the headphone jack. Then they took away one of your options. In this case they are adding an option and not taking anything away.
I mean, people are riding Waymos, and were riding Cruises, so while it's not broadly available, it's also not the case that nothing has been shipped. Hell, comma.ai just launched the latest version of their hardware.

The future is here, just unevenly distributed.
> in practice these ransomware groups are pretty reliable

Hard to say...

You're effectively trusting the liar they wont lie again

Its possible they leak it to high profile customers without publicly announcing it

Business should make decision assuming the data will be leaked eventually regardless of random paid or not

Perhaps only thing business can assume is the data wont be publicly released in short amount of time
Nobody will ever know

I think there was a freakanomics saying basically this. The price of air travel has dropped and become way more accessible over the last 50 years.

I think travel is so discretionary they have to keep prices as low as possible or people decide not to fly. Low margins and tough competition.
People are more honest about how they feel online. They might not attack openly like that offline, but they do think those things.

So you see people who refuse to acknowledge their mistakes fail upwards while those who do admit are often pushed down. How often do you see high level politicians admitting their mistakes? They almost never do since those who did never got that far.
Replace GPT-4 with Human in this paper and nearly all the found behaviour is entirely predictable and even expected.

Now replace the behaviour with "weird bugs in the computer program" and it's mostly just confusing, unintuitive and unpredictable. Traditional bugs don't even work this way.

The conclusion here is not necessarily that GPT-4 is a human but that ascribing human like behavior results in a powerful predictive model of what you can expect in GPT-4 output.

What would be silly is throwing away this predictive model for something worse in every way just so I can feel more special about being human.
My companies entire sales force, some thousand-ish so of them. They have laptops and iPads, but we don't issue phones. They just get plan reimbursement.
finally, that foundation is long overdue some competent leadership
Nope, that's not happening. Sadiq Khan, the current Mayor of London has refused to give planning permission for it today.
All three parts of what I said are true. What you say is also true.
These days I mostly read and save on mobile with the Notado iOS shortcuts, but of course everything works pretty much the same way with the browser extension too.

All websites/apps that I read comments on (HN, Reddit, Mastodon, Twitter, Lemmy, Tildes, Lobsters, YouTube) have a "Save Comment to Notado" action when sharing permalinks which makes saving interesting comments a breeze.

When I'm reading something in Safari, I just highlight the text I want to save with my finger and then use the browser share button (not the text share button) to hit the "Save Selection to Notado" action.

If you check back in my comment history here I've written before about how I'm a big believer in RINORIN (read it now or read it never), and for this reason I completely eschew read it later-style reader apps. If it's not immediately interesting enough for me to read when I see it, I just let it ago, trusting that if it's important enough, I'll be exposed to it again sooner or later, and at that point it'll be interesting enough for me to read it when I see it.
RACK? No mention of RACK or BBR. I thought the kld was being enabled by default in this release cycle.

or is this "old news" and it was rolled into an older release?
Have you considered just budgeting yourself $600/month on guilt-free non-essential transportation, and committing to spending any remainder on nice refreshments/gifts for your friends?
What matters is how much personal work and money Adam put into Poe. It seems like he's been working on it full-time all year and has more or less pivoted to it away from Quora, which also faces an existential threat from OpenAI (and AI in general).

Either way, Adam's conflict of interest is significant, and it's staggering he wasn't asked to resign from the board after launching a chatbot-based AI company.
Because if a ticket is sold privately to another rather than going unused, the airline only gets paid once. If the airline can resell the seat, they get paid for it twice.
Specialized learning and focus often comes at the cost of generalized learning and focus. It's not zero sum, but there is competition between interests in any person's mind.
>They could make ChatGPT++

Yes, though end result would probably be more like IE - barely good enough, forcefully pushed into everything and everywhere and squashing better competitors like IE squashed Netscape.

When OpenAI went in with MSFT it was like they have ignored the 40 years of history of what MSFT has been doing to smaller technology partners. What happened to OpenAI pretty much fits that pattern of a smaller company who developed great tech and was raided by MSFT for that tech (the specific actions of specific persons aren't really important - the main factor is MSFT's gravitational force of a black hole, and it was just a matter of time before its destructive power manifests itself like in this case where it just tore apart the OpenAI with tidal forces)
"look at this guy and his... lack of self-censorship!"
just because technology exists doesn't mean we have to use them is a lesson I fear will take the world a long ass time to realise and internalise.

There's a simpler point, though: if everyone is going one way, even if they're right it's still hard to get ahead of that curve; you don't have to be cynical about everyone, just notice what a bell curve looks like as the population increases. By diverting even a little you can get into a space where it's easier to standout, without having to go full retro - after all, sometimes the crowd is actually running from the tsunami :-)
"supports up to" doesn't have to mean "works well/optimally with".
I don't think people are more honest about how they feel online. I think that the venue makes one feel differently.

Probably < 1% of the people in the peanut gallery have even met the person they're attacking. Without participating in online discussion forums, how many of them would even know who Ilya is, or bother attacking him?

Honestly, I think the "never apologize or admit an error" thing is memetic bullshit that is repeated mindlessly, and that few people really believe, if challenged, that it's harmful to admit an error; they're saying it because it's a popular thing to say online. I've posted the same thing too, in the past, but having given it some thought I don't really believe it myself.
Claude 2 is IMO, safer and in a bad way. They did "Constitutional AI". And made Claude 2 Safer but dumber than Claude 1 sadly. Which is why on the Arena leaderboard, Claude 1 is still score more than Claude 2...
Sure, but I've not seen them offer tick boxes for things like the ability to choose which seat you're in, or complimentary snacks and drinks.

ZipAir doesn't even provide free cups of water during its flights. They require all baggage, even carry-on, to be under a certain weight or pay an additional charge.

Unbundled options is no longer merely about how many bags you check or carry on. They're monetizing _everything_.
'S all good
Stop doing self-correction within the context of the model's own generation.

The previous paper on self correction told the model "you previously said X - are there errors with this?"

This one has the mistakes statically added to the prompt in a task prompt and response without additional context immediately before asking if it has any errors.

Think about the training data.

How often does the training data of most of the Internet reflect users identifying issues with their own output?

How often does the training data reflect users identifying issues with someone else's output?

Try doing self-correction by setting up the context of "this was someone else's answer". It is still technically self-correction if a model is reviewing its own output in that context - it just isn't set up as "correct your own answer."

This may even be part of why the classifier did a better job at identifying issues - less the fine tuning and more the context (unfortunately I don't see the training/prompts for the classifier in their GitHub repo).

It really seems like the aversion to anthropomorphizing LLMs is leading people to ignore or overlook relevant patterns in the highly anthropomorphic training data fed into them. We might not want to entertain that a LLM has a concept of self vs other or a bias between critiques based on such a differentiation, and yet the training data almost certainly reflects such a concept and bias.

I'd strongly encourage future work on self-correction to explicitly define the thing being evaluated as the work of another. (Or ideally even compare self-correction rates between critiques in the context of their own output vs another's output.)
I have not read the essay, yet but when 'we' talk about
> reasoning errors,
we do not mean reason in some natural, universal, scientific kind of sense, right?

Given that the training data can only contain human reasoning and computational logic, reason in the sense of LLM's can only be interpreted as "rational facts AND nonsense humans made up to create systems that would support consumerism-driven sanity", correct?????

Please understand, I'm not mocking, I'm genuinely interested
in the ways human reasoning radiates into the code LLM's learn while they realize (the computational equivalent of a new-born's eyes opening) their cognitive (&) sensory
(that which triggers/causes/elicits/prompts/influences) their origins (every whatever-second/moment of their existence).
Thanks - I hear you, safety around hydrogen is always a big concern. We do address it head on often but it will always come up in any conversation about it. The "why not batteries? question is audience dependent - some people have given up on batteries and others, they see that it works for EVs so expect it to work for aircraft too. Will keep your feedback in mind, especially for sales!
Not if it's illegal for you to work 30 hours at minimum wage.
The "Think Globally, Act Locally" movement is the competing philosophy. It's deeply entrenched in our culture, and has absolutely dominated philanthropic giving for several decades.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Think_globally,_act_locally

"Think Globally, Act Locally" leads to charities in wealthy cities getting disproportionately huge amounts of money for semi-frivolous things like symphony orchestras, while people in the global south are dying of preventable diseases.
Awesome! Seems like this would be a lot easier to work with and perhaps more performant than Skye's pg-queue? Queue workload is a lot like OLTP, which IMO, makes Postgres great for it (but does require some extra tuning).

Unlike https://github.com/tembo-io/pgmq a project we've been working on at Tembo, many queue projects still require you to run and manage a process external to the database, like a background worker. Or they ship as a client library and live in your application, which will limit the languages you can chose to work with. PGMQ is a pure SQL API, so any language that can connect to Postgres can use it.
My current (purchased in 2015) home, with a view like Jackson Hole, cost a bit more than I paid for the first home in 1982 or so. Both in California. We were in our 30's so only one child, but that was location-independent. Both homes are/were three bedroom. WFH is pretty liberating for many.

People raise families and work here, and the kids get lots and lots of outdoor activity. At 74, I hike tails I cut out of brush daily, with some 100ft. (10 flights of stairs) elevation gain or loss. Ignore the negative things I had to say on a different HN post. For better or worse, Walmart and such are 50 miles away. Many people like that.
> it's basically like going to the discount grocery store in a poor neighborhood and wondering why your $20 brand of parmesan cheese is not available?

The poor neighbourhood grocery store doesn’t act like I’m a mark. They respect their customer base and provide what they can.
If you're going to make a symbolic gesture you don't cloak it in so much secrecy that nobody can even reasonably guess what you're trying to symbolize.
The OS could also provide geo-location for devices for applications (Netflix) for users that utilize a VPN.

Nothing good can come from a device having internet access outside of your control.
One of the issues I observe is that few Americans really have an understanding of the economy. Too often their feelings are dictated by gas prices, by their own personal income, or the stock market, IE: indicators, but not a holistic perspective.

I know it is just a movie, but so often I have reflected on the end scene in Fight Club, where the Tyler Durden character is talking about the dichotomy of believing we'd all grow up to be rich and then discovering it's not reality. The American system is unforgiving. The past roughly 100 years saw us short rapidly from an agrarian economy to our current services-driven economy, where along the way we were told a college education was the path to wealth but the reality wasn't so simple. I don't have time to type a thesis here, but I can't blame people for feeling the way they feel even when the economic indicators are generally positive.

While we're talking about it - a few days ago there was a thread about rural HNers. I would bet if you were to ask urban dwellers, especially in coastal cities, their perspective on the economy it might be very different than those of us in fly over country.
“Before I went to college I read two books. I read a book “Moral Mazes” by Robert Jackall which is a study of how corporations work, and it’s actually a fascinating book, this sociologist, he just picks a corporation at random and just goes and studies the middle managers, not the people who do any of the grunt work and not the big decision makers, just the people whose job is to make sure that things day to day get done, and he shows how even though they’re all perfectly reasonable people, perfectly nice people you’d be happy to meet any of them, all the things that they were accomplishing were just incredibly evil. So you have these people in this average corporation, they were making decisions to blow out their worker’s eardrums in the factory, to poison the lakes and the lagoons nearby, to make these products that are filled with toxic chemicals that poisoned their customers, not because any of them were bad people and wanted to kill their workers and their neighbourhood and their customers, but just because that was the logic of the situation they were in.

Another book I read was a book “Understanding Power” by Noam Chomsky which kind of took the same sort of analysis but applied it to wider society which you know we’re in a situation where it may be filled with perfectly good people but they’re in these structures that cause them to continually do evil, to invade countries, to bomb people, to take money from poor people and give it to rich people, to do all these things that are wrong. These books really opened my eyes about just how bad the society we were living in really is.”

Gotta have some limit, 4x the current limit of 256 seems reasonableish. Dual socket Epyc 9654 is 96 cores * 2 threads / core * 2 sockets = 384 threads. Intel says their Xeon Platinum 8490H can live on an 8 socket board[1], if you can find one (SuperMicro has one, no price listed [2]; not sure if this is really an 8 socket system, or if it's 4x dual-socket nodes in one chassis?); 60 * 2 * 8 = 960, so that's within the limit, and 8 socket boards are pretty difficult to find.

I think their point was that they have an artificial limit for the actual hours booked (20h), but a lot of delivery time is not-working (e.g. waiting on an order) but that doesn't count against the 20h.

So if they are willing, they can spend 30h waiting+delivering with a lower hourly rate, but higher total $ than just working 20h at min wage.
This was a plot point in The Accountant starring Ben Affleck.

He’s a criminal who launders money through small businesses he owns and the accounting firm he runs. He names it ZZZ Accounting so it doesn’t get a lot of calls through people looking up accountants in phone book.
I wanted to grow up and become a doctor.

Now as an adult, I’m an “allied health professional” and my area of healthcare is anaesthesia. So… not a doctor, but work in a pretty niche area of healthcare anyway.
Touch ID alone should suffice, identical twins have different fingerprints. Similar, but not identical. There's some amount of entropy captured in the womb which affects their development. [1]

> Fingerprints aren’t included in these genetic similarities. That’s because the formation of fingerprints is dependent on both genetic and environmental factors in the womb.

> The chances of identical fingerprints in identical twins is slim-to-none. While anecdotal articles online often discuss the possibility of a chance that the science could be wrong, no research has found that identical twins can have the same fingerprints.

> [...] As a result, identical twins may have similarities in the ridges, whorls, and loops in their fingerprints. But upon closer examination, you’ll notice differences in some of the smaller details, including spaces between ridges and divisions between branch markings.

There isn't necessarily a way to know who you are actually dealing with. Maybe in some cases there might be some information to figure this out to some degree. But normally the only information that is certain is where the payment is going. Which is just a bitcoin wallet address.
This is a great example. When you reserve a table at the restaurant they might offer you several seating options when they are not busy. But if they are full they will get you seated and not ask you for extra money. But you may end up next to the toilet.

Try reserving a specific table at the restaurant. An hour before the dinner.
If anything has become clear after all this is that humanity is not ready for being the guardian of superintelligence.

These are supposed to be the top masterminds behind one of the most influential technologies of our lifetime, and perhaps history, and yet they're all behaving like petty children, with egos and personal interests pulling in all directions, and everyone doing their best to secure their piece of the pie.

We are so screwed.

I think the big disconnect here is that you are thinking about personal relationships and not less personal ones. You should admit guilt with friends and family to mend those relationships, but in a less personal space like a company the same rules doesn't apply the onlookers do not react positively to acknowledge of guilt.

Ilya should have sent that message to Sam Altman in private instead of public.
The compiler is open source, and written in rust. The web interface is free, and I think it will stay that way? (I think they run on donations). They could really use some clearer marketing on the front page...

People will most definitely build such things (also into autonomous swarms of killer robots usedby the military, projects are ongoing...). However, Asimov's stories illustrate how difficult it is to find such rules. They are certainly not meant for inspiration how to actually program robots...
The article mentions a "one to many" system which is exactly this - it compares you to every face in the database and decides who you are, eliminating the need to show physical ID.

Unless both twins are flying on the same day, you could solve this by rejecting matches of people who don't hold a boarding pass for that airport.

Or you could just require a physical ID as backup if the system can't return a match (due to identical twins or otherwise).
