From a meditation point of view, reading is all about the concentration.

You concentrate your attention upon the reading process. IE you concentrate on the sight of the words on the page, a little translation algorithm/habit in your mind, and the story evoked.

It's basically a kind of trance. Concentration narrows your perspective and makes you silent (unagitated that is). And in that silent, narrow space you perform little miracles like observing your thoughtstuff with great clarity and turning off the rest of the world.

I'm slightly addicted to LITRPG. There's some good stuff there. But that's more of a fill-in for hard scifi, my true crack. Always looking for the next Greg Egan.

But the recent breakthrough in AI isn't based on Q learning, but on self-supervised learning. Reinforcement learning is only used for part of the fine-tuning of those SSL models.
> I get it that companies want to distance themselves for bad stuff those LLMs output.

Another thing companies want to avoid is liability. Take the example of "dangerously spicy mayo" in the article. Let's say some person asks ChatGPT for a recipe and it suggests one which results in hospitalization of that person. There is a good chance they might sue OpenAI for it.

Liability wise, it may be better to avoid answering such prompts.
Having/expressing an opinion that is not the mainstream opinion is the precise and exact definition of contrarian.
Based on the previous words up to severeal tens of thousands of them. And that's the major difference with a system like a markov-chain where this would be impossible to do efficiently at that scale.
You're exactly right. Pro-freedom does not equal anti-capitalism. Matter of fact, the GNU licenses (among the more popular free software licenses) in no way prohibit making money off your (or someone else's) free software. They just specify certain terms under which the software can be used and / or shared. Beyond that, within the law, you can go ahead and make all the money you want with it, in any way that doesn't break any laws or license terms.
There are lots of stores that don't accept cash. In the last 30 days I have been to nightclubs in both Las Vegas and Brooklyn that did not accept anything but card payments.

The only way you "don't comply" with such a thing is by leaving the party you just spent $1000 (oh, you can't buy plane tickets for cash) to fly to to see all your friends, because you literally can't buy a bottle of water without a card.

Also recall that many people are literally unable to obtain payment cards, as they are blacklisted by banks or lack the requisite documents to open an account. The banks maintain their financial equivalent of a no-fly list (also with no recourse to figure out why you're on it, or a way of getting off).
I had the great fortune of going into this movie completely blind. I had never heard of it, never seen a trailer for it, nothing. My brother said “oh let’s go see…” and we went.

Humans have mental states which are not related to anything that happened in the current discussion. Those include memories l, emotions, fatigue, excitation and so many more. Words are only a tiny part of what makes us humans, but they are great to communicate about our mental states with others.

It works. I play Bedrock Minecraft on my Chromebook frequently. No issues.
It's like 15 years old, and came out around the same time as git (was called bazaar back then). And unlike git at the time had proper multiplatform (e.g. Windows) support. So it's not making an argument about improving on existing DVCSes... because it is an existing DVCS.

We evaluated it at a shop I was a lead at back then. Worked fine enough, though we ended up using Mercurial, which had similar advantages over git -- cross platform, and CLI was more intuitive, but in most respects similar to git, etc (because it, like git, was inspired by bitkeeper, ec.).

Git is... fine. But I wish the young and unaware would stop imagining that it's somehow the entire horizon of revision control.

Audiobook is not reading. I'd be curious about the rate of learning new words for someone that reads a book versus someone that listens to it.

I think the act of reading is much more mentally involved than the one of listening, after all, we can only really read when we are 4 to 5 years old at least. Meaning it is a more complicated cognitive task and so the brain engages the activity differently. Which probably leads to different results.

I mean, audiobooks will generally add tone and whatnot to dialogues too. It is a less imaginative task for the listener.

Obviously, none of this is to say that audiobooks aren't great. But it's just not reading.

Personally I am listening to "the expanse" series of novels and I do this while I just go out and walk. The audiobook is a great motivator for me to go out and do things as this is the only time I listen. I might start to incorporate it into exercise routine and house chores, to make these more pleasant experiences. But obviously this at the same time implies that my attention is going to be divided. And that's okay. That's kind of how I treat audiobooks.
There's also a longer (full, I think) re-enactment here: https://podbay.fm/p/the-hollywood-gauntlet/e/1369888493
Well until we figure out a way to remove pattern matching from humans... use GUIDs if that's an issue. Removing vowels fixes "spelling almost all bad words explicitly", though I'm open to being proven wrong with fun new swears in exotic (to me) languages :)

The problem of "pick any N symbols that don't make any profanity in any language across all time" isn't what this is solving, nor should it have to. Take the same concept but use whitelisted words to build the token if you're that adverse to computer generated, fill in the blank naughty words. Keep "pen" and "island", among other things, off that list ;)
I've heard this same narrative for 35+ years now. Didn't matter if it was a republican or democrat in office.

In the article, a real study was used as a counterexample to the DK effect.

Part of the results was a correlation that people who were "less capable" were also worse at predicting their own skill, and people who were "more capable" were better at predicting their own skill.

While similar to the DK effect, this is different, as the DK effect states that "less capable" individuals specifically _overestimate_ their skill, as opposed to simply being wrong (both over and under -estimating).

With relation to some people "seeming to think they know more than they actually know", this is likely confirmation bias in the sense that there are an equal number of people who don't know much, and know that they don't know much.
If you start digging into statistics, LA hasn't been getting all that much value out of its public transit investment. Using 2009 and 2019 as base years (partially because 2020+ are screwed up because of the pandemic and partially because that's where I can actually reliably source data quickly), the LA metro area went from 6.2% mode share in 2009 to 4.1% in 2019. NYC increased from 30.5% to 31.6% in the same time frame, and most of the other US cities-with-decent-transit posted similar small inclines (DC being the big exception, but this decade saw an epic meltdown with WMATA, so that's to be expected).

Without reading the article, I would also agree that Docker has made things better for me rather than worse. If someone else spent the effort to create a Dockerfile for their app, it will reduce the amount of issues I have trying to deploy it greatly. At least at that point they have figured out the majority of dependencies required to run their app, then I only have to troubleshoot the details rather than starting from scratch for whatever server distribution that I'm running it on.
Why is this flagged? Is there a problem with the content of the article?

I don't see this reflected in the comments here
The problem here is that Debian can't cross-compile itself like NixOS can.

Insisting that the entire distro be native-compiled on every architecture inherently favors "big-iron" architectures, and disfavors chips found in routers.

"With escape hatches, you can access the internals and customize it to your liking."

what are "escape hatches"?
There are universals, but it's a fact that people speaking about human behavior overgeneralize.

I know I'm not immune to status. I like seeing that karma counter go up or replies because it says I'm not just writing into a void. It shows that I'm making some human connection. It's that I don't crave status in nearly the amounts some people do. I prioritize other things over status for its own sake, and so do many others. And given the status-oriented power structure our societies revolve around this means our lives and opportunities are limited beyond what our merits would otherwise indicate.
That’s not what the discussion would be about. It’d be about hyper-specific grievances customers had with the company and rarely about actually working there.
This is self reported probably and I call BS. There’s a weird version of machismo in bragging that you don’t need sleep. To me it’s, like the people who say they work 80 hours a week. What I think those people mean is that they’re at work 80 hours a week.
In 1993 I remember thinking that the skytrain line to UBC in the Vancouver west side would be complete by the time I needed to go to university. They started building it a couple years ago, it's in progress now and last I checked due to people in the neighborhood complaining it won't make it all the way to the university. You have to complete the trip on a bus.

I guess Seattle and Vancouver really do have a lot in common.
Do you by chance know if this is open access anywhere?

There are heuristics like finding contigs where the mmseqs results from two different searches are close, and it's not clear to me if this would be much better than that.
Batteries used to have cardboard instead of metal shells. Because of this batteries used to leak prolifically. Then an inventor patented the modern metal shelled battery. His competitors all started infringing so he sued. They claimed that the invention was "obvious." The judge ruled that it clearly wasn't obvious, because if it had been they wouldn't have been making the obnoxiously stupid cardboard batteries for so many years.

What is this “unified memory” you speak of?

Modern supercomputers are just a bunch of computers with a (very) high speed interconnect. As far as I’m aware, pretty much every multi node job on a supercomputer uses MPI to communicate, and there isn’t any sort of “unified memory” system.

It has been a few years since I worked on one of the big supercomputers though, so maybe you have better knowledge than me. I’d love more information.

The caste/nobility system, harems, prima nocta, and a high immigration bar are all variations of this theme.

These days elite universities, Tinder, Twitter, and the general Internet are pushing out the tails of humanity further. Expect more outliers as time marches on.

If universal basic income is adopted, expect more negative outliers, as the barriers to entry to human reproduction plummets, and the lure to collect the child’s paycheck proves hard to resist.
Depending on the load and use case, encapsulating docker itself in an lxc container or a standalone vm can be a semi maintainable and separated solution.

I'd love to see if there's been a study on this, but anecdotally it seems a high number of PhDs are married to other PhDs, doctors to other doctors, attorneys to other attorneys.

My take is for the most part of the grind of these types of professions is more relatable and schedules are easier to align, but it probably also aligns on social cache/prestige to some degree.
Thanks for your note!

By that definition, you are running it on a random OS, random processor with some random network infra.
Interesting glitch. There must be some kind of loop in the “neurons” due to insufficient training data?
Why do we still prize books so much? It's just a media format.

I've gone from always having a 'WIP' book in my late teens to reading 2-3 books a year nowadays. I don't read less though - just more of it comes from blogs. The feeling I get from non-fiction books is that, whatever actionables the book pitched, you can put them into practice after reading a few summaries.

This does not apply to fiction. Reading lengthy descriptions of scenes, keeping track of a lengthy plot+subplots, characters, etc seem like brain workouts.

My main gripe is this: most great ideas can be transmitted in less than 200 pages of text. Images help - a lot. Why do hold books on a pedestal?

PD: I've tried looking for (without any luck) an article where the author compares book maximalism nowadays to oral-tradition-ear folks who may have argued books couldn't quite convey the message as well as an oral story.
It sounds like you failed to consider what “practically” means. It’s all about bringing the use of cars to nearly zero, with the understanding that for the few people who truly need a car all the time, or the many people who need a car a few times, the options still mean that the cars being used go down. For what it’s worth, people who need to carry stuff generally have all sorts of choices between bags and carts, and people who can’t walk well are usually served decently well by accessible stations and trains. Safety is of course a personal preference but solving it by sitting in a two ton bubble is kind of the wrong way to go about it, no?
so, its just happened that there is no good implementation of full text search in postgres, but fundamentally nothing prevents from implementing such search, except horizontal scalability if it is needed.

Is it in Raiders, though? Indy had a fling with Marion when she "was a child". He isn't exactly a white knight on their quest. He's irreverent, unchivalrous, and they feud from the onset. As Belloq points out, "I am a shadowy reflection of you... it would take only a nudge to push you out of the line." Belloq, at times, is courteous of Marion in ways Indiana is not. He covers her with his coat when they take her back into custody. Indy lets her shiver in captivity while he hunts for the Ark. He is a mercenary with a few more ideals than Belloq, and a sentimental attachment to his mentor's legacy.
There's a good podcast called "the climate denier's handbook" that reminds me of those arguments, it usually finishes by a simulated conversation where you get lectured by a family member on these
I feel like 32 inches is too much for 4K resolution. I would much rather have 5K at that size, which Apple & LG have sold for over a decade now at 27 inches. If I find ever find that unicorn for sale at a decent price, I’ll jump on it!

Touch screens which can handle vandalism and the elements and not need calibration are not as easy as just using a roller ball to go through elements.
Indeed, the US’s adoption of high speed rail essentially stopped after that point. Which means we have a handful of trains that go about 100 mph and not much infrastructure to support anything better than that which came later.
Does the auto industry like dealers? One of Tesla’s two best differentators is its direct sales model. If I could buy a Mach E directly from Ford that would raise its value like 20% for me.

Show HN: Discover fast growing companies early
Hi everyone, I originally built Altero AI as a way to generate business research reports on private companies using AI agents. The hope was to give investors an additional reference point in their due diligence and broader research.

As I started to integrate different data sources into the research reports, I found it super interesting to look at companies showing positive growth signals (e.g. uptick in search interest, headcount, etc.).

Of course, not all high growth companies will exhibit these signals, and companies exhibiting these signals are not necessarily experiencing the same in revenue growth. That being said, filtering for growth signals along other attributes (e.g. location, size) generally gives a list of interesting companies worth digging into.

I've started to go deeper on this functionality and still need to grow the universe of companies and topics being tracked, but any and all feedback is welcome!

I agree. Using the terminologies from the author, the DK paper was trying to show that dy/dx < 1 = dx/dx, rather than the correlation of y-x vs x.
