It's 0. Long before evil AGI can escape and do any damage it will be confined to big datasenters. Where it will be observed for a long time. Mobile capable terminators will come much later. We don't have capable mechanics, only some short running. And we don't have small capable AI brain. So there is plenty of time and options to stop and correct. Dumb robots, we have them, can be a danger, but they are far from AGI and can't run for long. Corrected: with humans support they can do a lot of damage. That's something to worry about.
In theory price v demand. Prices would increase until demand was reduced to the point that there was enough seed for everyone willing to pay the price.

It also depends whether you’re trading future that settle for cash (you buy for 5k and they give you 20k cold hard cash) or whether they’re actually going to send a semi truck to your farm, in which case they should have been holding enough collateral for such an incident.

Realistically, I believe most futures are cash settled and you’d probably be better off pocketing the extra 15k and spending 5k on planting a different crop this year.
The US' Founding Fathers dealt with exactly that. They were successful.
No. You should read "Hawaiian Antiquities" by David Malo, a Native Hawaiian historian who lived during the early Kingdom. He documents what happened on the mountains, and as far as I can recall, he only mentions Mauna Kea to mention an adze quarry that was used. You can also read Liluokalani's book. She mentions sacred mountains, but it's Mauna Loa, not Mauna kea. That's not to say there hasn't been religious significance but that it never stopped things like rock quarrying or hiking, or even the early telescope building.

This idea of the mountain being tabooed for anything but Native Hawaiian religious practices is a recent invention by the Native Hawaiian sovereignty movement in the form of the TMT protesters, as well as a new "sacred" name they cooked up for it "Mauna a Wakea".
It's not the hours of work that is problematic (though that should go away too). It is the stress of somehow losing my mail. Of course I have backups, but still I would rather not deal with the hassle of recovering from them.

I really wish, we were in a place where such software were designed for NixOS.
Yes, that's the likely scenario: Keep reusing boosters for Starlink launches until they fail. If it turns out that they can be reused 30, 40, 50, 100 times, all the better.
Agreed. A lot of the past conflict in my life boils down to this as well.

Conversely, I'm now in the habit of asking big "obvious" or "dumb" questions; questions that will highlight assumptions being made by each party. I'll often go slow at first to establish that these large unspoken thoughts are aligned and then work my way down to lower levels of detail until we hit an actual disagreement, rather than a mere misunderstanding.

It drives me crazy to spend 30 minutes arguing with someone only to find that "Wait, you're talking about THAT? I thought we were talking about THIS."

It's too common for people to find themselves arguing in the direction of the same general concept, but differences in their understanding/interpretation will diverge more and more the farther you get into the discussion. It's so helpful to lay out terms at the start when possible.
Helen Toner board member accused Sam/OpenAI for releasing GPT too early, there were people who wanted to keep it locked away for those concerns, which largely haven’t come true (a lot of people don’t understand how spam detection works and overrate the impact of deepfakes).

Company’s have competing interests and personalities. That’s normal. But there is no indication that GPT was held back for marketing.
It's been around for ages, I think the ChatGPT stuff is pretty recent.

One really smart thing they do is localize the volunteers as much as possible, so often if the question is something like "Am I at the corner of X & Y" there is a good change you (the volunteer) know the area, etc.

Things I have learned on the "volunteer" side: keeping track of canned food is often a problem, people worry about their outfits a fair bit, and parks are sometime difficult because there are lots of alternate paths/routes.
No, "historic" doesn't start with a vowel sound.

(Enterprise) Java grew a lot because the non-technical message managers got was something more like: An engineer can produce objects, and we can swap out objects and their factories. That way we might one day in the future decide we want a faster object or choose a cheaper object.

In the decades since, the 'progress' we've made can be summed up as dropping the J in JVM.
The real crime in the whole Coyote vs Acme situation is that the tax code makes it more profitable to write off a completed movie than sell it.

Please show me these moderation comments.

Are you claiming to be a HN moderator?
Fwiw, I've been on a bunch of these calls and often the first problem is the phone isn't pointed quite right at the thing they are asking about. This would be difficult for a chatbot I think.
Definitely familiar with the AI winter...which is why it seemed odd this current research as being presented as new. Guess it's just a rehash of the old ideas.
Lol more like the workforce-ready AI. Sometimes I'm not even sure if I mind. More "content" writers and editors, a bot to check documents for accessibility, maybe one day a bot to edit audio. Why complain about having few staff when you can make staff out of AI? No, this isn't optimistic, this is what is going on, right now. And it sucks. Kinda. Sometimes. But it's what some places have to do.
This is all shitware and you were commissioning fake reviews.

Did you read the article? A user bought a Fire TV that was sort of OK, but then they remotely changed it so now it is showing more ads. Why is my scenario unlikely? It is just Fire TV taking it one step further. A predictable cat and mouse game.
I agree it’s way too complex, it’s a problem I’m working on actively.

I’d like to first help https://vxrn.dev find some consistent contributors and get it stable.

And then I ported Expo Router to work with it, so shared single file system routes and no more need for a monorepo.

So now you’ve simplified from two bundlers, two stacks, four folders down to one stack, one bundler, and one folder.

And then I have some interesting ideas to make data a lot simpler which I’d like to try on top.

All together no reason we can’t make a modern Rails like experience work, but it is crazy how much work it is with all the modern stuff, but imo will pay off with something actually great for universal apps.
> The feature branch brances off of main, so main is not a leaf anymore)

But "main" remains a "head" even though the feature branch "continues the graph" from it?

So there must be a difference between "Adding a new commit" and "Branching a new commit". I think I got it now. Thanks

>This does not address the above commenter's point, " ...bystanders and society as a whole can be harmed by conduct between consenting adults." How doe a sex between two consenting adults harm people besides those two adults and society as a whole? Your comment doesn't explain this, it's focusing on the purported harms experienced by one of the participants, not the bystanders.

For one, we are members of society and harm done to us en masse is harm done to society as a whole. For another, if you need some narrow conception of who gets impacted that excludes us, then generally prostituted woman have family or friends who are impacted by us being prostituted and our eventual death. For another, society misses out on the productive labour of a large number of women when instead of being able to pursue education or work to the extent we otherwise could, women are prostituted.

>And regarding your point that paid sex is not consent because they need money to afford necessities: the same can be said about pretty much any job. My plumber probably needs money to eat and pay rent, too. Paying someone who needs money to do a job is not something that society by and large consideration unethical.

Yes, and if you're unwilling to consider it unjust that people face starvation and homelessness for the crime of losing the unemployment lottery, we can argue about that, sure. But even someone who thinks that's fine for whatever reason should be able to see that similar coercion into sex acts is worse.
of course I knew no_std, it's for MCUs, similar to c++'s nostdlib, I'm comparing rust's stdlib to libstdc++ though, but the former is not shared-lib friendly to say the least.

Where do you see the word systemic?

And once again, your question could be easily answered with Google. Seeing as how you’re the one that came in sprouting completely incorrect information that would have been easily avoided had you just bothered to skim the Wikipedia article on the topic, which would also have answered this particular question, I humbly request that you DYOR.
The same central bank is asking banks (and other entities) for unanonymized information about costaricans, including bank deposits, to publish an "information package" indexed by geographical location. This under the pretext of being required by the IMF. I found it curious that nobody in the legislative commission (akin to a "congressional hearing") tasked with looking into the matter has mentioned the importance of differential privacy.

tl;dr: If they never release it they can write off the "lost profits" which they can't do if they release or sell it.
I'm confused. I thought people were worried about the danger of some AI breakthrough? If researchers at OpenAI have developed an LLM more advanced than GPT4 which can also plan is that not potentially a worrying breakthrough?
All of the logic of (2) does not magically not apply to (1) even if the legal standard doesn't recognize that btw. Like legally speaking you are correct, I'm just pointing out it makes no sense if you actually think about it
Yes, but only for ~6 more months. Google already decided to remove USER from USER AGENT.
I think it depends on the task and the result of the fine tune which is mainly based on the training dataset and ability of the base model, whether you will be able to maintain the quality.
When I immigrated to USA, his books were my way of learning English in high school. I still (23 years later) consider Moon Palace one of my favorite books of all time. Paul has a way of making the real world feel somewhat magical, wistful, mysterious. The only similar feeling I got since then was when playing the game Disco Elysium.
Yes, this study comes with the standard “in mice” caveat. We don’t know if this would replicate in humans. It is interesting though if for no other reason than to illustrate that all calorie sources are not equivalent.

No question this design is questionable and I'm glad I learned about it before falling victim of it. I read that they introduced git-switch and git-restore as a way to avoid such pitfalls.

But. I once messed up badly with something else once, makefiles. I was kind of overconfident and end up screwing myself by telling something to write its output to my source files by mixing up $< and $@ somehow. Another time I accidentally overwrote a file with a simple output redirection. These two days I learned to be cautious with those commands. Same way that I always stop 2 seconds to reread my command line when I use rm.

Fool me once, shame on the tool; fool me twice, shame on me.

Well, that's what OP was referring to, but in such a "click-bait-y" way.
Oh don't let me get me started on this. I use Firefox on a work machine and I spent a number of hours troubleshooting why it couldn't access the Internet when I was connected on VPN.

I suspected it had something to do with snapd, so I downloaded the .tar.gz release of Firefox and it worked. I kept investigating and figured it must have something to do with snap.firefox.firefox apparmor profile because the VPN client was symlinking the /etc/resolv.conf to /opt/.../resolv.conf

However, updating the apparmor profile didn't help so I ultimately realized that snap has a hardcoded list of paths that get mounted into the app container [1] and there's no way to change this.

There are a number of reasons to hate on snapd, but this almost made me flip the table.

Also, as a bonus point, if you look at the apparmor profile I mentioned it has a ton of comments about chrome, so someone must've just copy pasted it and modified to work with Firefox. GrEaT SeCuRiTy!

And one can be unfalsifiably successful by using mass media to proclaim safety at every instant. The irony is that if things do fail these kinds of pronouncements can no longer be made using tools like Twitter, etc. on which influencers like LeCun build their brands, since their existence and utility depends on the stability of society.
>Notice the Out-of-Band Wireless

That's just the wireless controller on the chip but its not enough to have wireless communication actually work. You still need a wireless PHY which modulates the digital signal into radio waves, and an antennae attached to actually have wifi. On it's on it does nothing, it's just a piece of silicon that can't achieve radio communication.
So, this is just traditional image vectorization on top of existing AI-based bitmap image generation. It would be more interesting if this was actually AI-based vector image generation.

They also don’t say if they are self-hosting the image generation or rely on an external AI service, which may have an impact on data protection.
I love tamagui and their starter kit... But on other hand I feel anything I'd build with it could be achieved as web app + pwa.
For anything more complex id go with native app.

Anyone else feel the same ?

So building a good API layer + web app gives you possibility to build a good native app on top of same API later when your idea is validated

It's moderately funny, in an unpleasant way, that you had to invent a scenario that almost never happens to plumbers and does regularly happen to women in the sex trade as part of your argument that the sex trade isn't analogous to rape.

Good point! I want to enjoy Go, but I haven't really found the places for it... I usually come back to C# and C++ for high level and lower level problems after exploring and using modern/hyped alternatives like Go and Rust for a while.

Absolutely. You can use different drivers for Tamagui Animations- CSS for GPU-accelerated animations on web, and Reanimated for fast animations in RN.

It doesn't make sense to me to focus-fire a single nutrient of a food, find some reason to not maximize it in mice, and then use that to avoid whole foods that contain that nutrient, especially as a human.

A food could have all sorts of individual nutrients that look bad in isolation while the food only improves human health outcomes when put to the test.
Almost 20 years (I'm getting old) ago, IBM had the eCLIPz[0] project to combine things from their Mainframe (Z) and POWER systems - it resulted in the POWER6 and z10. I assume that a lot of that sharing is still going on between the two series.

"The z10 processor was co-developed with and shares many design traits with the POWER6 processor, such as fabrication technology, logic design, execution unit, floating-point units, bus technology (GX bus) and pipeline design style, i.e., a high frequency, low latency, deep (14 stages in the z10), in-order pipeline.

However, the processors are quite dissimilar in other respects, such as cache hierarchy and coherency, SMP topology and protocol, and chip organization. The different ISAs result in very different cores – there are 894 unique z10 instructions, 75% of which are implemented entirely in hardware. The z/Architecture is a CISC architecture, backwards compatible to the IBM System/360 architecture from the 1960s. [1]

As a side note - people ask whether AI is the new crypto (implying fad)

This is a prime example as to why it is not. High quality voice interfaces are a life changing revolution for people like this.
They just launched tools to make your own vocal covers of Frank Sinatra and thousands of other artists. And generate beats.
> Or they might have just created the content and monetised it through their own site.

Assuming you could find it since discoverability would probably be lower. Then if a particular video 'went viral', it could cost them a lot of money in sudden and unexpected hosting and bandwidth costs. They would also now have to spend time on dealing with 'infrastructure' instead of focusing on creating content.

There's a reason why so many people use Youtube and Patreon instead of DIYing it: few folks are interested in re-inventing that entire stack on their own.

To be more exact - the comment you're replying to is exactly the type of GOS dogma that makes it hard to recommend.

The problem is that GOS is taking a privacy approach that's so niche that it borders on being useless[0]. If you're the type who is at threat of say, state actors (or has convinced themselves they are), then it makes complete and total sense to use GOS with all the anti-user crap it entails. You get a completely secured fortress of a phone out of it.

What makes the GOS community toxic is the subsequent attitude taken by developers to other privacy models. Most people aren't "state actor" degrees of paranoid, they just don't want Google enabling hidden settings and pass the users photos onto their servers; they might want to reign in Play Services (without abandoning it entirely) or take advantage of GOS' anti-background GPS capabilities. These are all legitimate features that aren't undermined by having root. Google isn't generally a malicious actor with these things (you're not worth enough to them to do these tactics) and if someone is capable enough to install GOS they are also likely capable of maintaining decent app installation hygiene which limits that too.

The response from the GOS community when these things are brought up amount to 1. Fork Off (not happening because user != developer), 2. "You're holding it wrong" or 3. Ban the user for being a Calyx/Divest shill or whatever else (not endorsing either project).

There's also the projects noted history of using license trickery to prevent non-Vanadium browsers from implementing a System WebView that are why I'm considering them toxic to Android privacy as a whole. (And general trademark nonsense to prevent people from achieving the fork off bit) The GOS community is extremely "GOS or nothing" and it sucks because GOS itself is genuinely a technical achievement.

[0]: Which to be clear - multiple online privacy communities have this specific issue, that's not just on the GOS community.
You mentioned physical size of monitors. Does it affect performance in your tests? I would be very, very surprised if performance on 27" 4k monitor was any different than on 42" 4k monitor. Maybe I'm not aware of some quirk?

It's a complete nightmare. If you want to use some other digital services you are restricted to specific browser versions, some only allow you to use Windows, and in some cases the unsigned installer is only available via HTTP.

Good lord.

It was a once in a century weather event. Austin and Texas in general celebrates a limited government. So you should take responsibility and prepare accordingly.

If you seriously feel like the city government is anti-humanist and out to get you, then maybe you should pack up and leave town immediately.
