Yes, I think that is the general trend. Have one model tuned for reasoning that decides a plan, based on which you invoke other models as tools (see e.g. the ReWOO paper[0]). If I had to guess, an approach like this is what powers the recent Custom GPT/Assistant API products (based on the lag between tool invocations I would guess that they also re-prompt for plan adjustments between every set of tool calls).

Do that with a small model and hot-swap LORAs, and it should be possible to build a quite powerful local assistant on consumer hardware.

> I use some features at very specific times, and it suggests me "do you want to do X?" around the time I do that.

You're conceding that you have a predictable schedule. Folks on the other side of this (who believe it can't work nearly as well as manual control) don't have a predictable schedule. Think of it like {hybrid workers who use a desk all day the same 3 days a week, and are nomads the other 2 days a week, and the ML system can figure this out} vs {on-site workers who use a desk all day 5 days a week, but are nomads a few random days a year, which always catches the ML system off guard}.

Both are valid. A setting that caps it at 80% unless you hit a button for "I'm about to spend a lot more time unplugged than usual, so prepare the battery for that" is the only way to handle unpredictable circumstances. Just like preparing an EV for a road trip.
The problem is not that Google wants to put Ads on YouTube. The problem is that they are putting too many ads there, a disproportional amount of them. Based on the money they are pulling in, they could easily put fewer, less intrusive ads on the platform and still make a healthy profit.

The fact that they are going above and beyond is what makes people angry. YouTube may be the property of Google but they got so successful due to all of society and most people have the intuitive sense that Google is taking more than their fair share from society now.

The problem is not technical, and as long as Google continues to make their profits soar beyond what they deserve, people will continue to use adblockers.
This is not in any way conclusive, as Musk's thinning of Twitter has clearly demonstrated. The most important thing is who are the 5% that would remain.

It's still relevant when MS decide to drop it and focus on yet another new shiny web-framework, like the 10 - or whatever number previous they've built - in the past 20 years. And, let's face it, they're not very good at it. If they were they wouldn't need to shelve so many previous attempts. Or, they decide to completely upend the entire ecosystem (Framework → Core) which then makes all previous web-frameworks (built by them) defunct.

Enterprises with sense would either roll their own, that they can then have complete control of forever, or try and find a framework that has staying power (although I realise even that is difficult).

I think running C# in the browser has benefits, for sure, but they should just stick to making that. And get out of the web-framework game for good to allow the community to create something exceptional - and, you know, play nice with others (other frameworks).

And yet, that's precisely where I would go if I were law enforcement or a secret service.

And unlike Apple, Whatsapp or Telegram whoever hosts such a service can't even refuse such an order on grounds of technical impossibility because the messages are in plaintext in memory.
what metrics could you use for "progress"? Maybe a crowd-sourced thing where users can update the highest achieved density for each? Still there's other measures that are probably even more important and harder to measure. Like adoption

Yeah, it would be conversions of ad-blockers to Premium subscriptions. And they will get some of those, maybe even a lot. I believe it will be a challenge for YouTube to convince enough of those people using ad-blockers to convert. I've considered getting Premium, and perhaps I will eventually because the experience in the YouTube app on the TV (not "YouTube TV") has become so unpleasant because of ads. But I really don't want to. I don't trust YouTube to not roll out "reasonable ads" for Premium in the near future. If Amazon decides to retroactively place ads on their TVs, YouTube more easily can do the same for Premium. It'd be one thing if YouTube was a different company, in which case I wouldn't hesitate to pay. But we know the kind of people they are.
> I'm pretty sure most (all?) manufacturers already do (the first part of) this. 100% can't be the point at which the battery literally stops taking new charge - if you did that they'd catch fire all the time.

It's a really tiny amount, like 101% or 102% is the maximum. It becomes obvious on phones if you have an app that shows battery percentage over time - above 90% on a slower charger (like using USB instead of AC) it tapers off in a curve, even on a brand-new battery.
Social media is a really poor spec, to be fair.
From what I can tell from Facebook and Twitter threads, most people still do not use any kind of adblock. FAANG would love it for everyone to abandon desktop OSes and use locked down mobile devices forever.
This is one of the arguments I've used in the past. It's easy to kill ASI if it's a data center. But if it's running on a cellphone?

Here's another anecdote, posted in 2011 but about something even earlier:

> "We were trying to get a big client for weeks, and they said no and went with a competitor. The competitor already had a terms sheet from the company were we trying to sign up. It was real serious.

> We were devastated, but we decided to fly down and sit in their lobby until they would meet with us. So they finally let us talk to them after most of the day.

> We then had a few more meetings, and the company wanted to come visit our offices so they could make sure we were a 'real' company. At that time, we were only 5 guys. So we hired a bunch of our college friends to 'work' for us for the day so we could look larger than we actually were. It worked, and we got the contract."

Not if Adobe was developing it. Flash was terrible for performance and battery life, and it was wedded to the classic fixed-size window with a keyboard and mouse. Even Android users who had access hated it.

Now, it’s possible that some of that could’ve improved (battery life would’ve been hard due to the scene timing model) but Adobe just isn’t a platform company. They didn’t even want to fix the security problems, much less all of their half-assed APIs - they were even worse than Sun for announcing ambitious frameworks duplicating built-in OS features, shipping the easiest 40%, and then letting it stagnate because there was no way fixing the hard stuff would get them a second keynote.

The current Chinese dictator does many unethical things, but ascribing the actions of a ruler to an entire race of people is fallacious. Akin to saying that Trump’s philandery applies to all Americans globally. As the other commenter said, China has a long history of studying ethics, morality, and philosophy.

I’m not really a “PC” person but broadly saying that ”Europeans […] are more ethical than Chinese” is a white supremacist statement. I’m not saying you’re a white supremacist, but your comment is.

Well, managers are happy to take responsibility for their project/product when everything goes well. It’s actually the argument for their salaries and bonuses compared to lowly engineers. So why should they not take responsibility when it goes sideways? Particularly when failure affects the whole product like the Sunbird app.

You cannot say that the project works because of you, and then turn around and pretend you have nothing to do with its failures.
This is about 0.5 MJ/kg compared to fuel which is closer to 50 MJ/kg ( or closer to 10 when normalizing to efficiency). ie this is why ev batteries need 20x the weight of gasoline at least to store similar amounts of on board energy.

> YouTube is not losing money, it's a significant contributor to Alphabet's overall revenue.

There's no contradiction between those two ideas. Something that loses a lot of money is more likely to be a significant contributor to revenue, because you can't lose a lot of money without seeing a lot of use.

But why would anyone care about revenue? Is it a significant contributor to profit? Last I heard, Alphabet doesn't even provide a breakdown of how much of its money comes from YouTube.
Except New York State law allows for that with no exceptions.

From the article:

> But there’s something far more local and specific that says the NYPD can’t do this: state law.
>> The Right to Record Acts allow for the recording of “law enforcement activity” and “police activities.” Defendant does not dispute that officers interacting with civilians in a police precinct are performing law enforcement or police activities. The Right to Record Acts do not carve out police precinct lobbies as places where individuals are not allowed to record and the Court declines to read that limitation into the Right to Record Acts. Citing to both Right toRecord Acts, the NYPD Legal Bureau Bulletin acknowledges that the right to record police activity “is codified in New York State and local law and extends to those individuals in both public places, such as streets, sidewalks, and parks, as well as private property such as a building, lobby, workplace, or an individual’s own property.” NYPD Legal Bureau Bulletin at 3 (emphasis in original).

I used to have a Turtle Beach AudioTron [1] (hardware device to store and play audio files to HIFI amp). Device was terrific (for its time) but the shuffle/random play was slightly off - occasionally you'd get deja vu whilst listening to an artist on shuffle - that completely spoilt the device for me, rather than listening to the music I was listening for the next repeat/pattern.

Basically that means you have an issue with https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9476.html, not GNS.

GNS, in theory, could replace DNS (the technology) and reuse its current root governance model as default.

From the point of view of GNS namespace governance is separate from name resolution protocols.
Of course, from the point of view of a lot of DNS folks, DNS is both: The governance (ICANN) and the technology (RFC 1035 et al) and indivisible.
When it comes to web, MS has been focused on ASP.NET since forever. With evolution of the web, ASP.NET too has evolved quite a bit.

Building a simple web app with Razor pages is incredibly easy and the output is fast and scalable.

Their WebAPI in ASP.NET is very good.

Blazor is an additional way to do web apps, but very much in line with the structure and core of ASP.NET.

In the desktop world, MS has jumped a lot of hoops, mostly because there is no one to chide them on their own platform. But the web is different.
Another important rule: Never leave a lithium-ion battery at 100% charge (or <10% charge), or in an unventilated/hot area, for a long time. It makes battery swelling more likely.

I read in a previous post of yours that you did 50!! PRP injections. I was also advised to get PRP injections by a doc, he said a lot of top athletes suffer from cartilage damage, and they do these injections to prolong their careers. But then I was held back because it seemed they had a business from doing these PRP shots, I didn't trust them. They were also pretty expensive, around 500 euros/shot, and you needed to do several. But 50? that seems a lot, and a lot of times you had your blood drawn. In the Netherlands where I live, the doc didn't even mention PRPs, he jumped straight to a microfracture surgery. It felt like the guy was looking for someone to practice surgery on, hate these doctors.
Do their salaries matter? Presumably they make all their money from bribes.

A better approach is to give everyone a giant raise, but make it clear they will be first against the wall if they or any of their relatives accepts any additional payments or gifts.
Headroom is not an issue - there is plenty of room underneath the trains between the wheels. They then pump the cooled air up through the walls to where they want vents. Sometimes trains use the space between the wheels for passengers, but that has significant disadvantages and so should be avoided for subways (it is worth it for street running trams!),

Misleading way of looking at it. Lithium and sodium are not the major cost (or weight, or volume) inputs to making batteries, and crustal occurrence is very distantly related to cost. We mine things from places with 100x-1mx higher concentrations than natural. Water concentrates lithium into brines and clays for us. Sodium's low density causes it to create massive domes underground that are extremely recoverable. In contrast many metals aren't naturally concentrated.

Lithium batteries aren't made of lithium. They're made of nickel- or iron, or manganese, or cobalt. In iron and manganese batteries the #1 price factor is the manufacturing- the energy, solvents, and machinery used to deposit materials onto film.

Likewise sodium batteries are not made of sodium. There's 13x more iron in them than sodium. There may also be large amounts of manganese or vanadium. The cost of manufacturing is also higher per kWh.
This is a big part of why I've shifted to medium to not-quite-high end natural wines, in particular old world.

I always found the mass market wines to be way too oaked and/or sweet for my tastes, and it'd give me headaches. The really nice stuff was too much $$ for me to consume at any regular interval. Stumbled across this niche and it was an epiphany. Obviously not a universal truth but in general I find the stuff I buy now to both taste much better to my palate and not give me headaches. Unless I consume *way* too much, and that's on me.
For stationary batteries, density (Wh/kg) and volume (Wh/liter) are not a concern, only Wh/$. These sodium-ion batteries can be deployed for grid connected storage (or home batteries like powerwall), freeing up Lithium for EVs.
Having tried to wrangle all of this both professionally and for a side project, the link is an over-simplification. No, it won't "just work".

Part of the problem is the fact that web browsers, Node.js, and other JS runtimes have slightly different needs and expectations. Part of the problem arises when you're trying to mix and match web code, Node.js code, and other JS runtime code in the same monorepo. There's no single magic-bullet configuration.

I think it would be an interesting statistic to know the number of Firefox users versus the number of Firefox users that do NOT have an ad blocker installed.

The late comer executives to Google seem content with burning it all to the ground and pursuing "be evil" at all cost. I think Google is too big at this point to ever disappear, but it seems like it's ripe for a reset for their business model. They do have products that are actually good, but there's a disease in the company that if it doesn't help ads it's a problem. It would be nice if all this anti ad blocker bull shit ends up with another IE moment with people switching back to Firefox to bring Chrome in line.

I'm not super hopeful because there are so many shitty boot camp JS devs now that would rather advocate for blocking non Chromium browsers over adhering to standards and figuring out why their bad code isn't working, but one can hope.

Based on the first figure in the paper, it seems that this scheme effectively turns 8 input values into a 4-bit number, thus giving an effective 0.5-bit quantization.

Considering that current aggressive quantization for LLM transformers uses 4 bits, does such a 0.5-bit quantization produce an effective neural network?

Does the scheme stay competitive if it is changed to use 4-bit quantization instead of 0.5-bit?

> All the dis-advantages are not relevant for enterprise LOB apps, which Blazor is best suited for.

The disadvantages: the _actual user_ is going to have a horrible time with the application. It will load slowly, work slowly, probably break the moment you inevitably will have to touch JS, and if the browser the user hates anyway is out of sync with the forced updates, the entire thing will blow up.

But enterprise LOB don't care.
