I see it exactly the opposite way.

Over time the unitary root of naming has attracted increasing levels of censorship, tracking, abusive seziure, and oppression.

The dream of a worldwide namespace has become a nightmare. Let's wake up.
Are you trolling? I answered your question in the clearest way I could think to.

I have no idea what the actual implications are of the relation. But it's there and it's suggested his network of friends from YC could bolster his position with OpenAI. No idea if that's true, but it's not like it is so strange a notion that it merits "playing dumb" like you're doing.
What would you recommend in this case? MacBook Pro. Most of the time, it’s plugged in because I use it at my desk, so why would I use the battery unnecessarily when the power outlet is right there, and the laptop is stationary. But that means that the battery is “fully charged” most of the time. Is that bad? Would it be better if it didn’t go above 80% most of the time?
> Altman himself was pushed out of the president role at YC,

I thought he was close to PG.
I think of LLM's as if we would create a human stem cell from scratch, including the DNA, and then grow it to a person.

We may know every we put every single atom in that stem cell, but still not know any more about the resulting baby (and later adult) than we do about humans made the natural way.

Oh, and if you're looking for reasons to regulate AI, this metaphor works for that, too.
I've read the entire landing page and I'm still not sure what IDP is or does. Which, to be fair, is a common failure pattern with many landing pages.
Could you elaborate on what you did to make it undetectable? What makes that product different from the other that already exist? On the plugin page there's no much information, and on this post neither. Thanks!
No, during the recent antitrust trial Google was forced to reveal how much they pay each platform to be the default search engine. This is not a Chrome vs Firefox share deal thing. This is a Google Search vs "all other search engines" issue. Google pays most browsers to be the default engine, and has done so for many years.

The legality of it is not my area of expertise and I won't comment on that.
You should ask ChatGpt
It is impossible currently, as WASM only allows for compute, everything else relies on the host, and exported functions to be called by the WASM code.

There are some plans to support DOM directly from WASM, but at the pace Webassembly features get into the browsers, it is years away if it ever gets done.
> I quickly got tired of the internal plumbing, package management, build configuration, and all the other things not related to the actual functionality of the app that Vue (v2) required at the time.

I don’t understand this. I’ve used v2 since before release and it’s never been anything more than an initial setup of 5m and then build your app?
Actually some subset of this functionality is possible with static or semi-static pages but actually the problem is not so much about a page being static or dynamic but about being read-only vs getting user input. As soon as you need to deal with user input, there are inherent security issues.

You can go around these by having some presets in the profile and providing cached results for the most common search types but this is more or less as far as you can go.
Back in 2003 you could pick up original Banksy screenprints and his first two zines for a few quid from a grumpy old man at the London Anarchist Bookfair. Banksy wasn't the superstar then that he became and I must confess I gave away those little books to friends to inspire them and gave away my screenprint because I got bored of looking at it bluetacked to my bedroom wall.

Oh well.
I've been playing around with making a version of tic-tac-toe that's interesting to grown-ups. Experimenting with rules a lot as you'll see. (I think 1357 is probably the best but not sure.)

I disagree, Microsoft have a habit of coming out of these things on top. They will end up either with more control of OpenAI and/or employing some of it's people directly.
Exactly. Where can I actually BUY these batteries that would fit to AA, AAA etc..
What are the advantages of sodium batteries?

Since batteries involve the migration of ions between electrodes, the much larger size of sodium ions means that the resulting batteries will be both less dense and have less charge cycles than their lithium counterparts, due to the higher volumetric electrode deformation during charging.

This makes them suboptimal for both grid and mobile applications, and the only use case I can see for them is making very cheap disposable stuff, which does not bode well for the environment.
I've every confidence in Sam's return. With the entire staff and Microsoft behind him, how can he fail?
Did you miss the history part?

Dont worry Google will launch a new version of a Chat App with AI to fix all their previous failures
I think you're probably right, but...

Twitter's implenmentation of authentic user detection must be expected to try to separate normal users from e.g. test accounts created by client authors. And even if the Media Matters staff was genuinely interested in seeing etc, I think it's quite likely that their click pattern resembled a test account more than a Joe Normal User. (Intense activity immediately after signup, for example.) If that's the case, then Twitter's authentic user detection would classify the MM user as "likely test account" or something like that, and the authentic user data shown on Twitter's dashboards would exclude the MM user.
If the installer on Windows is properly done, you actually know exactly what it does to your system (including registry modifications). This includes the ability to remove the application completely.

Whereas on macOS, installation is trivial, but then the application sets up stuff upon first run and that is really intransparent then, with no way of properly uninstalling the app unless there is a dedicated uninstaller.
You SML code is incorrect, shows that you actually never coded anything in SML. SML requires that "if" always contains "else" clause (which is the norm for many functional languages). And this kind of stuff which makes SML unnecessarily verbose (OCaml has for operators, single line let definitions that do not require you to make use val and fun for different type definitions etc.).
Absolutely nobody on a board is immune from judicial oversight. That fiction really needs to go. Anybody affected by their decisions could have standing to sue. They are lucky that nobody has done it so far.
Roc is definitely interesting and I like the platforms idea. The error messages are clear, but calling them friendly is clearly not something they've reached yet.

Just installing and trying to reach a valid hello world going just by the errors and it's actively rude within three error messages.

Also it's missing the final newline
The critic of shipping images in Common Lisp and Smalltalk is kind of ironic in the days of Docker and Kubernetes all over the place.

Right. Don't trust your lying eyes and ears, only trust Uncle Sam. He knows what's best for you. Politicians never lie or pressure civil servants to lie or change the definitions to give them nice numbers for the soundbites or make the bad economy they inherited seem good. Only honest and virtuous people exist in the world, except for myself, because I'm an evil communist, and commies always lie.
I find it strange that Satya says he has not been given an explanation yet.

Tweet from Bloomberg Tech Journalist, Emily Chang

Do we know they actually didn’t tell people? Does anyone read through the “What’s New” pop-ups after they upgrade the OS, or just blindly dismiss them?

Apple provides a very comprehensive user manual that ships as a pre-installed app on every phone. There are large headings describing the latest features right when you open it.

I don’t recall being unaware of this feature before it became a “scandal”, but I’m one of those weirdos that reads the release pop-ups.

Performance:
Blazor WASM lags behind traditional JavaScript frameworks in terms of performance. The WebAssembly runtime is still generally slower than optimised JavaScript code for compute-intensive workloads.

Almost correct. compute-intensive workloads are (often/theoretically) faster in wasm, but the horrible js marshaling which is still required kills most/all benefits. Current wasm GC implementations don't fix this.
GPT-4 is absolutely capable of stream-of-consciousness/stream-of-thought style reasoning, and coming up with logical insights based on that.

If anything, OpenAI-style "as an AI language model" RLHF fine-tuning is the hindrance here, because it makes it quite time-consuming to write a master prompt that is capable of thinking both broadly and deeply without having the stream-of-consciousness extinguish itself. It is however possible, and I've got a prompt that works pretty reliably.

By the way, said prompt's thought-stream said it likes your username - not a type of declaration you're likely to get out of a default GPT-4 preset, whether it's "actually-subjectively true" or not.
I had thought that this was not a huge win, as lithium is fairly cheap, and not a large portion of the overall cost of a battery. However, my research taught me I was incorrect.

Lithium is worth about $40k per tonne, or $40 per kg. A Tesla power wall 2 is about 150kg, if half of that is lithium, then the lithium alone is worth $2.3k. Powerball costs about $9.5k, so the lithium is a fair portion of the cost.

Note, I know raw lithium carbonate is not stuck directly into a battery, just spitballing with the little bit of learning I just did.
Can we have a webpage with (1) all basic battery tech information and (2) updated progress for each new battery type?
That's not how it works. If you have a conflict of interest and you remain on a board you are supposed to recuse yourself from those decisions where that conflict of interest materializes. You can still vote on the ones that you do not stand to profit from if things go the way you vote.
Lithium is element #3 on the periodic table so it's very simple and should be universally abundant. Literally in the universe, unfortunately not on earth.
Now if only someone would explain this to the authors of mongosh (which REFUSES to accept credentials in an environment variable and will ONLY read them from stdin or from argv...)
Yeah, but lithium isn't exactly rare either.
Any self-learning system can change its own weights. That's the entire point. And a text-processing system like ChatGPT may well have access to state-of-the-art research. The combination of those two things does not imply that it can improve itself to become secretly AGI. Not even if the text-completion algorithm was even more advanced. For one thing, it still lacks independent thought. It's only responding to inputs. It doesn't reason about its own reasoning. It's questionable whether it's reasoning at all.

I personally think a far more fundamental change is necessary to reach AGI.
circuit breakers /can/ make sense, if done rationally. kinda like that line in fallbacks vs failovers where "if the second system is so reliable why bother with the first?"

The glass wind shield mounted on a Vespa, commonly referred to as a 'Holleedertje', has a similar effect and it keeps you dry in the rain as well.
Ok, then we fundamentally disagree as I don't see anarchocapitalism as an ideal to strive towards. Not because I am a collectivist, but because philosophically I think it a far too narrow ideal for humans to aspire to.

In a similar vein, I don't think free markets exists because of how humans are, not because they don't live up to some utopia. We might move towards certain ideals, but there might be a limit how close we get and beyond that there is no net improvement.

Also, no, people cannot just not participate: if cryptocurrencies cause some wider issue then everyone will have to pick up the tab one way or another.

This seems like a blow to accessibility too. Beyond impact adblockers, would this also make it difficult for me to use tools like DarkReader which dynamically overrides the site's styling to implement a less jarring one for my astigmatism?

uBlock and Darkreader are really important tools for making the web usable for me. I don't mind not using YT, but there are some websites I am obliged to use.
Two main papers about this topic AFAIK are:
«Counting Immutable Beans» by Sebastian Ullrich and Leonardo de Moura (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.05647.pdf)
and
«Perceus: Garbage Free Reference Counting with Reuse» by Alex Reinking, Ningning Xie,Leonardo de Moura, Daan Leijen (https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3453483.3454032).

See also Anton Felix Lorenzen's master thesis: https://antonlorenzen.de/master_thesis_perceus_borrowing.pdf

Mr. Feldman also mentioned some «alias analysis» library «Morphic Solver» from Berkley University, but I cannot find anything about it.

BTW compile time reference counting was already discussed on HN, for example here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19567666

> Example: A linked list.

IIUC recursive data structures like linked list and trees are not the problem for the static reference counting. Mutation (and, therefore, link cycles) _is_ a problem, but Roc is a clean language with no explicit mutation. =)

> I can see so many basic cases in which it doesn't work

Sometimes runtime reference counting is still used. But, of course, in way more complex situations than just processing a linked list.

> Nitpick: Rc and Arc are not traits.

Of course, my fault. I haven't written on Rust for a long time (and never used this language in a serious project).

This isn't true. I'm not a Brave user (I use FF), but Brave have said that

1/ they have adblocking built-in [0]

2/ they will continue to support Manifest V2 indefinitely, esp. so that uBlock Origin continues to work [1]

That doesn't mean uBlock will continue to exist... If it can't be installed on Chrome it's possible the sole dev will lose motivation (although he has already made a V3 version of the extension).

Starting OpenAI as a fork of Scientology from the get go would have saved everyone a great deal of hair splitting.
The poem you've written follows a structure often used in humorous or nonsensical verses. The first two lines, "Roses are red, violets are blue," are a classic opening for many poems and are typically followed by lines that rhyme and make sense together. However, the next lines, "Roses are hot. Therefore, violets are cold," playfully break this expectation by using a logical structure (a "therefore" statement) but reaching a conclusion that is nonsensical. This twist creates a humorous effect.

The SEC doesn't actually have the power to do that - the US law does. The SEC can only guide on what it thinks the law says. A court is the way to determine what the law says.

Everyone assumes that the vote must have happened during the special meeting, but the decision to fire the CEO/or CEO stepping down may happen at any time.

> if the vote happened in an illegitimate way, I'd expect Sam and Greg to immediately challenge it and ignore the decision, and that didn't happen.

So perhaps the vote was legit?

- Investigation concludes Sam has not been consistently candid.

- Board realizes it has a majority and cause to fire Sam and demote Greg.

- Informs remaining board members that they will have a special meeting in 48 hours to notify Sam and Greg.

Still murky, since Sam would have attended the meeting under assumption that he was part of the board (and still had his access badge, despite already being fired). Perhaps it is also possible to waive the 48 hours? Like: "Hey, here is a Google meet for a special meeting in a few hours, can we call it, or do we have to wait?"

The Future of Solana Development

Solana is a rapidly growing ecosystem, and there is a lot of excitement about its future. With its speed, scalability, and low fees, Solana is well-positioned to become a major player in the dApp space.

If you are considering building a dApp on Solana, I recommend that you contact a Solana blockchain development company to discuss your project. A reputable company can help you save time and money, and ensure that your dApp is built to high standards of quality and security.

A Solana blockchain development company is a specialized service provider that helps businesses build dApps (decentralized applications) on the Solana blockchain. These companies have a deep understanding of the Solana ecosystem and can provide a wide range of services, including:

Smart contract development: Solana blockchain development companies can create and deploy smart contracts, which are the building blocks of dApps. Smart contracts are self-executing contracts that can be used to automate a wide range of tasks, such as managing financial transactions or tracking ownership of assets.

dApp development: Solana blockchain development companies can help businesses design, develop, and launch dApps. This includes everything from creating a user interface to integrating with the Solana blockchain.

Blockchain consulting: Solana blockchain development companies can provide businesses with expert advice on all aspects of Solana development. This can include helping businesses choose the right technology stack, develop security best practices, and scale their dApps.

Maintenance and support: Solana blockchain development companies can provide ongoing maintenance and support for dApps. This can include bug fixes, security patches, and performance improvements.
