Good advice.

One thing I'd add is that having a kid is very different than I imagined. I assumed it would be a slog like doing chores, but you'd feel accomplished at the end (like having a clean house).

Instead, it's way more fun than I imagined, more similar to playing a funs port. It's very enjoyable, but breaks and rest time are welcome.

I'm not sure I agree on the "reach out 3 times and then stop reaching out".

I have some friends who are terrible at social situations. They don't reach out to anyone. They're homebodies, and lonely, and often find excuses. Gently asking once every few weeks if they want to get together seems to be what they need. Sometimes it takes 3 tries on average, on occasion more, sometimes less.
The cited source there is some old Spotify PR. Which, if you dive into, eventually states:

> Our current payment agreements lead us to distribute (~)approximately 70% of our gross revenues to master recording and publishing rights (both mechanical reproduction and performance) holders. The precise division between these types of rights holders varies by territory in accordance with local laws and negotiated agreements.

So, 70% / 30% is actually just a self-reported figure, and also just a ballpark based on current agreements at the time. Also, I couldn't find a current version of this page, only the archived one cited. All current versions of this page seem to have nothing but deflection, which might indicate that their self-reported figure has become less flattering.
Trained on the same number of tokens as the 14b, which was only a little more than the 7b.

Seems like they just ran out of good tokens?
I regret that the discussion about message encryption is so black and white. Encryption is being used to evade prosecution for crimes such revenge porn, CSAM and criminal conspiracy. For one, I would not mind if encryption was forbidden for group chats bigger than 10 people, or that large groups are forbidden to share encrypted images.
Yeah, this history is just wrong. What really happened is as so:

Early 90s: SGI invented OpenGL to make realtime 3D graphics practical, initially for CAD/CAM and other scientific/engineering pursuits, and started shipping expensive workstations with 3d accelerated graphics. Some game artists used these workstations to prerender 3d graphics for game consoles. Note that 2D CAD/CAM accelerators had already been in market for nearly a decade, as had game consoles with varying degrees of 2D acceleration.

Mid-90s: Arcades and consoles starting using SGI chips and/or chip designs to render 3d games in real time. 3DFx, founded by ex-SGI engineers, created the Voodoo accelerator to bring the technology down market to the PC for PC games, which was a rapidly growing market.

Late 90s: NVIDIA entered the already existing and growing market for OpenGL accelerators for 3D PC gaming. This was a fast-follow technical play. They competed with 3DFx on performance and won after 3DFx fell behind and made serious strategy mistakes.

Later 90s: NVIDIA created the “GPU” branding to draw attention to their addition of hardware texture and lighting support, which 3DFX didn’t have. Really this was more of an incremental improvement in gaming capability.

Early 00s: NVIDIA nearly lost their lead to ATI with the switch to the shader model and DirectX 9, and had to redesign their architecture. ATI is now part of AMD and continues to compete with NVIDIA.

Mid 00s: NVIDIA releases CUDA, which adapts shaders to general purpose computation, completing the circle in a sense and making NVIDIA GPUs more useful for scientific work like the original SGI workstations. This later enabled the crypto boom and now generative AI.

Of course, along the way, OpenGL and GPUs have been used a lot for art, including art in games, but at no point did anybody say "hey, a lot of artists are trying to make 3D art, we should make graphics hardware for artists". Graphics hardware was made to render games faster with higher fidelity.
With the exception of two companies I started myself, my whole career has been B2B companies, and there are many good ones (almost exclusively companies which use software, but aren't software companies).

But pure software companies? Even B2B ones are increasingly abusive -- they just tend to abuse their employees rather than customers.

Note that I'm certainly not saying that all companies are like this. But the trendline for it is clear to me: it's getting more common as time goes on. That's why I would avoid this industry if I were at the start of my career. I think things are going to get much worse before they get better.
Thankfully, because Telegram seems unable to stop adding bloatware. Their service was complete years ago.
Do you have any info or links on more details about this? I’ve wondered the same thing.
+1. I like the anti-discoverability in Telegram, but I can see why they would need such a feature to grow their business.
Perhaps a typescript, rather?

It is also amazing at forming a diet plan when you give it macros and micros. It doesn't get it perfect but it's close.

I have a gym at home and it will spit out workouts for me based on a past script. It's great for that.
And this is why I began my comment with "I can't speak for everyone!" Art is so subjective that it would be rather silly of me to try to make a bold, authoritative statement about its nature. I definitely understand your perspective to some degree, and wish you the best :)
Also clustering, VM/LXC migration between nodes, backups, access control, software-defined firewall...
No. The moment you put it upon yourself to decide what is too important to let fragile little minds handle, you have chosen yourself as their thought master. Once anyone chooses that role, they deem themselves more enlightened and therefore more capable than the poor, deluded masses trudging in dirt below from whence they came.

I am ok with 'uncensored' LLM, but I am also ok with uncensored internet. The real harm is from people trying to protect me from me, apparently. Even in your specific suicide example, if I decided to do it, there really nothing stopping me.

I see no value in that censorship. I only see harm.
I want to echo this as well. I use a 2nd tool to help me add additional i3-like keyboard shortcuts as well (I have the ability to "stack" windows with Alt-S and rotate through them with Alt-J and Alt-K).

It's called skhd https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd

I forgot where the script for the stacking is. I can look that up separately, but I'm on mobile atm.
don't both of them breathe fire, though?
Experienced welders, plumbers, and electricians make as much as senior software devs do, at least in my part of the US.
A certain Y Combinator startup (two-sided labor marketplace in healthcare and nursing homes) requires that its frontline managers PIP or fire at least half of their team each year and sometimes more frequently. "If you're average, why are you here."

And the managers do because they are terrified about losing their jobs. It has one of the worst cultures, and code bases, in the world, because nobody knows how things work or why decisions got made, and no one trusts their team mates enough to ask questions.

Its all done in the name of excellence.
The new GPT-4 model has a context length of 120k. For consumers this equates to slightly more than $1/message input-only.

If ChatGPT is using this model then it's more reasonable to assume that they are bleeding money and need to cut costs.

People really need to stop asking ChatGPT to write out complete programs in a single prompt.
It has. I went through this exact same PIP process with subjective improvement goals at Twilio. It was extremely stressful and I met all the goals but got fired anyway. In hindsight it was just a layoff.
Very true, up till about age 12 or so.

At that point, kids start yearning to build their own identities. At least some of the time. They want to make their own friends; find their own obsessions and solve (or create) their own problems. They still check in with parents a lot. The rubber band of independence stretches and snaps, again and again.

You realize that no one is a perfect parent, because the concept of perfection collapses on itself. Part of the way that kids master independence is to be annoyed at their parents -- enough so that they walk home instead of waiting for the ride. If we're too good at parenting, the chaos and casual cruelty of the outside world becomes unbearable and they never get the hang of running their own lives.
The root cause is human nature, which has been warped by various environmental factors: cell phones, traffic density, lack of experience being the pedestrian, etc.

The human nature isn’t going away, and although the environmental factors are technically under our control, they’re just getting worse.

The fact that technology only made a pre-existing issue worse does not mean that technology is not the problem.
No because the overhead and uncertainty involved with smaller customers means they cost more and are less loyal / locked in and thus represent more risk. The smaller customers represent very little revenue in the short term and if one grows to any real size negotiations with sales begins.
Saint-John Perse famously wrote little poetry as a diplomat. Except for his stint in China, his diplomatic career involved an intentional turning away from poetry. What allowed him to return to poetry, in exile in the USA, was a Library of Congress consultant position created for him that was mostly a sinecure. Indeed, few make a living from poetry, but a sinecure has historically been the most that a poet could hope for.

Also, Perse had rich and powerful friends and lovers in the USA, which allowed him to enjoy countryside retreats and fine dining beyond what that LoC position could have allowed him. Easier to be a poet when one's needs are amply met and one can work in peace.
We humans, being what we are, having evolved the way we did, are predisposed to believe certain things about life that are not necessarily true. My poster child for this is the belief that minds are strongly bound to bodies. They are in us, of course, but it is not necessarily so. Douglas Hofstadter explored this in GEB in the character of Aunt Hillary, who is an intelligent ant colony.

Taking this one step further, we are predisposed to believe that minds exist only at one level of the abstraction hierarchy, but this too is not necessarily so. Our digestive tract, for example, has a pretty substantial number of neurons [1]. There is no inherent reason why, for example, an organ in an organism could not possess a mind of its own.

Once you entertain both of those possibilities, there is a third idea that naturally comes up: your mind might not be at the top of the abstraction hierarchy. It's possible that you are just an organ in a distributed organism that actually possesses a fully fledged mind of its own. The idea that, say, corporations are people, could be more than just a metaphor. It could be literally true.

> I don't think it's valid to count the effort in developing and training AI as part of the effort to produce the art.

But that is what webmaven was proposing. "your argument is mitigated by considering the cumulative effort of learning to produce art"

So do you count the training and practice a human and the AI took in order to be able to produce the art, or do you not count either of them?
Not only that, they also have less to lose so are able to take more chances, and work more hours to achieve their goals. Which gives the possibility of producing a unicorn. Older people will be more conservative, taking fewer risks, so probably less likely to hit that hyper-mega valuation.
More like a sequel to Core War... Which actually does sound pretty amusing now that I think about it. Call it Cloud War.

At least in Washington state, that's not the case. When I was PIPed out of Red Hat and claimed unemployment, benefits were approved.

"You or your employer said you were fired.

We decided:

You were fired, but there was no misconduct. You gave your best effort, but you were unable to do your job as expected.

When you are fired but there is no misconduct, you are eligible for benefits."
Moom is one of my main tools and I have used it for years. It is one of the first things I put on my Mac. I use it constantly to move windows around, lay things out for work, and move things between desktops. I can't recommend it enough.
Idk what you get paid but there are a lot of avenues for the trades to make well over 100k or 200k.
That plan does sound like the worst of both worlds.

Since "Sorting" means removal of pieces of stem and such and milling removes the hulls, the price per pound is sure to increase more that a tiny fraction unless the pieces of stem or the hulls are valuable, which I doubt.

Also, "drying" sounds like it could easily halve the weight of a grain of rice. Unlike wheat, rice spends its life in a very wet environment.

> Is this relevant to the Fermi paradox? If 1% of observed systems are estimated to still be in resonance, that means that 99% are not and have had some kind of significant event to knock them out of resonance.

The planets in our Solar System don't exhibit this type of resonance (some of their moons do), and we are here, so 'no'
Thanks for the great information!
Unfortunately, we can't change the past, and seemingly in the past it wasn't worth it to have a fast One True memcpy (and perhaps to a decent extent still isn't). I'm still typing this on a Haswell CPU, which don't have FSRM (rep movsb of 16 bytes in a loop takes ~10ns=36 cycles per iteration avg).

But, yeah it does seem that my 128 bytes of a quick search was wrong. (though, gcc & clang for '-march=alderlake' both never generate 'rep movsb' on '-O3'; on `-Os` gcc starts giving a rep movsb for ≥65B, clang still never does)
You know, honestly I don't recall. From what I do remember, I had checked the repo and I believe it was something you were working on but it was going to require a really big lift. I wanted to be very charitable with you in my above comment. I used Rectangle for a decent amount of time and overall it was pretty great. I only switched because of a time/money consideration, not because of a vote of no confidence, which is not something I can always say. Keep up the great work!
Nobody is cross shopping a Model X and a small economy car. You need to compare 'worse for the environment' of a Model X vs. a medium-big SUV.
As someone from outside the AI space, how useful are chips like this from Amazon? Meaning am I going to have to rewrite my entire stack to make use of this and then be locked into Amazon forever? Or are workloads at least portable in some capacity?
They are both the same.

Edit: to people who downvote, can you tell me why it is different? Aren't companies in USA censoring fearing governmental reaction, and the same for chinese companies?

Rectangle makes much more sense to me on Mac than a tiling window manager like yabai. I tried to use it but it just felt kludgy and I went back to Rectangle. Suits my needs just fine.

AMD is coming out with the MI300x on Dec 6th, it has 192 GB of HBM3 and you put 8 of them in a chassis all connected to each other with super fast connections (5.2 TB/s of memory bandwidth) and each chassis is networked with 800-900G connections.

We don't know what the tflops will be for the 300x yet, but it seems like the limitations here are more about memory than it is about tflops.
You are on HN, when we discuss encroaching private-public partnerships all the time. Not that long ago, WH got in trouble for encouraging suppression of some news items over others[1]. We are already at a point, where the difference between corps and government is more of a legal abstraction than a reality ( legal abstraction circumvented by that partnership, but that is a different rant ).

There is no difference.

Feature and UX-wise telegram is the goat.

The only unfortunate thing is that one of its biggest investors is russian's government wealth fund.

Which makes you wonder why would they invest in it.
Counting the development of AI software as part of the effort to produce art would be like counting the the process of growing up as part of the human effort to produce art. I don't think either of those count because they're not art-specific. They're both the baseline "effort" needed in order to just function.
OK, now I’m scared. I’m reaching an age where life lessons can be given. Didn’t expect that for today.
"The winners will have to prove by 2030 that their intervention can turn back the clock in older adults by at least a decade in three key areas: cognition, immunity, and muscle function."

"To win the competition, teams have to develop a “proactive, accessible therapeutic” that improves muscle, cognition, and immune function by an amount equivalent to a 10- to 20-year reduction in age in healthy people aged 65 to 80."

It's nice to have optimism, but the fact that the therapeutic has to be "proven" in healthy humans (not animal models) by 2030, makes this impossible.
Because car producers make them. And we gladly buy them.

On the other hand, most of the original gods were parts of polytheistic pantheons. Maybe a bunch of models that represent identities and biases could be more useful, they could argue amongst themselves, presenting a more full point of view, users could become familiar with the particular perspectives.
Typically we start as Tier 1 support people. We answer calls, we solve issues. Tier 1 is where you "cut your teeth", learn the basics of general systems troubleshooting, and demonstrate customer service. CS is much more important than most think.

Once you have a year or 2 under your belt in environments that provide training wheels (not insulting, we all started somewhere and noobs need training wheels), you can move on to a higher support tier, or leave and go work for a non-IT company, in the IT role.

The next step is commonly small companies that only have the FTE budget for 1 technical emp, but need someone in-house. This person will spend their time addressing any and all issues for an entire small company, and farm out the things that require specialties.

This is a great learning experience, imo. You get to touch damn near everything, from firewalls, to PCs, to printers, etc.

After that, assuming you picked up the info, apply it well, deliver good customer service, etc. you have many more options.

As far as where to look?

I'd start with small computer companies (break/fix shops), MSPs or similar also often need more Tier 1s.
Also, how reliable this project? Looks like they have one active contributor only now.

More or less, that's what Game of Life was intended to illustrate. Extremely complex systems can, and often do, evolve from a few seemingly simple rules. This sorta takes the "spontaneity" out of the more fanciful versions of the origins of life, instead rendering life the inevitable outcome of given circumstances. This is why we think we can detect^1 life in the universe, if it exists without actually travelling to other planets.

That period is a matter of hours. Unless you already own a plant, the companies that produce goods produce generic clones with the same tooling after hours.

New fashion trends have clones in online stores in days. Unofficial accessories and cases are available before product launches. Crowdfunded campaigns for hardware have clones on Alibaba before the funding campaign is over.
