haha, that was questionable for me as well. It's ok for Grammarly to read your stuff, but crash metadata is a no no.
Also, at least in my area, there isn't nearly enough shelter space to accommodate them. The number of beds available is less than 10% of the number of homeless people.
As someone who's rarely been "just a programmer" or "just a designer," that hasn't stopped me from being viewed as such by managers if it's convenient for them to mentally classify me as such.
Nonsense. Ireland will never leave the EU. They more likely to accept a time zone difference than leave the EU. They wanted membership desperately in the early 60s but had to wait a decade partly because de Galle hated the Brits. They couldn’t join quick enough.
Summary etymology can provide interesting reference points when looking a the history of ideas, but isn't sufficient because adjacent concepts change their meaning over time as well. It's good for showing when a word was attested and where to start looking for an understanding of how it was used and considered.

Where you say "roughly the same meaning as now" you seem to mean that "the highest faculty of the mind, capacity for comprehending general truths;" is how we think of intelligence now, but the meanings of "mind", "truth" "comprehending" and "faculties of mind" have all had their own radical shifts over the last 600 years. That quoted phrase conveys an entirely different perspective and set of assumptions/implications in the context of its time, and is not at all analogous to how we read it today.

Raymond Williams' "Keywords" collects a very interesting and accessible collection of examples of this phenomenon, although it focuses more on the language of politics and society more than the language of psychology.

The modern use of intelligence, and the conceptual constellation it represents, is essentially isolated from what's described in that article, but it's re-introduction in modern psychology does borrow from its prior existence in the lexicon.
Sad for google to fold like this. Though very true to form.
I think the proximity is what caused the orbit resonances.

So your intuition that they should affect each other is correct, but the end result less catastrophic.

Of course, we don't know how many sibling planets crashed into their sun earlier...
Well Python lives in the backend and JS in the frontend. You can't really build rich front-end apps yet in Python.

There's 20 tools to build neat little data / ML dashboards in Python that spit out front-end code but those don't have the features that JS / React have
Kind of, i'm not to familiar with the enterprise gpu sharing, but I believe that requires hardware support for it on the GPU to split up contexts for the OS. Whereas the GPU-P solution works on any GPU and is vendor agnostic as it's done on the OS/Processor level. It's really cool and I have no idea how they can ship this since it does trample on the enterprise tech pretty substantially. But I belive it's a byproduct of Microsoft wanting to compete on the datacenter level and it gives them a killer feature for Azure, and as a byproduct it entered as a semi undocumented feature into consumer hyper-v.
While you right about LLMs, you're not really making the case for humans well at all.

Human insight is really easy to break, confidence men wouldn't really be a thing if it were hard to break. Simply putting a statement like "I love you" in front of a statement commonly overrides our intellect. Or offering a chocolate bar in trade of our passwords. If you want a human to tell you how to end the world, you'd just convince them to be your friend first.
How did the Pink Pigeon bounce back from just nine birds? (2019)
> But at no point does the LLM learn any language other than token math.

Then can we make the argument that in the next 3 years, we aren't really due for any major AI breakthroughs and the current LLMs are about as good as they're going to get / they are kind of already at the limits of what they can do?

What would more GPU power, more time to training models, more tokens, more resources for high context size do if at the end of the day it's a random-nonsense generator with a really good scoring mechanism? How much more robust/advanced can you make it?

Take the context of replacing people with AI, if you can't trust the AI to be reliable + find a way to make it as accurate as humans, is there really an upcoming "AI revolution" to come?
I turned 43 today. Maybe I'm wrong and actually wiser than I think, but realistically, just about any advice I would give a person today is heavily colored by whatever I happen to be doing right now that seems to be working. The biggest thing I've learned is that I keep changing my mind about everything and the best way I can think of to live a life right now does not agree with what I would have said 20 years ago and most likely that means it doesn't agree with what I'll say 20 years in the future. I guess this is why I don't have a blog. I do write, quite a bit, items that could be blog posts, even items that could be books. But I write for myself. I don't publish any of it, in part because I don't have any strong evidence I'm actually correct about very much and in part because much of what I would have written 20 years ago would embarrass me today if I had published it.

Maybe this woman has it figured it out better than I do, but I doubt it. Do your best. Behave in a confident enough manner that people will take you seriously as an employee, spouse, friend, whatever it is. But never become too confident on the inside. No matter how certain you seem on the outside, stay humble and remain open to the possibility that you are actually wrong. I think there's an enormous need on the part of a typical human to take a position on everything they're aware of. Don't give in to that. Admit to yourself what you don't know, either because the facts don't exist, aren't accessible to you, or you simply don't have the time and intellectual energy to do the research necessary to truly understand everything that might matter. Become comfortable with your own limits.
The true bug in the photo is a "candy-striped leafhopper", Graphocephala coccinea, which is tiny but has very striking coloration.

The Larvae of leafhoppers are commonly known as spittlebugs, which create protective bubble nests while feeding on plant stems
I wondered what the authors would say about Fortran. They authors write,

'The Julia community’s interests are well aligned with HEP, and many Julia users are in the sciences. We see this in some design choices inherited from existing technical languages (Fortran, R, MATLAB, Wolfram), like 1-based indexing, column-major arrays, and builtin N-dimensional arrays, and also in the effort placed on interoperability with other languages'

Later they say that a "key feature" of Julia is

'A single implementation, rather than an abstract language specification with multiple slightly incompatible implementations. The Julia computing platform is primarily implemented in Julia (most parts), C, and C++ (LLVM), and it
has a built-in REPL.'

OTOH, the existence of an ISO standard with multiple implementations can benefit the portability and longevity of code.

The LFortran Fortran compiler is not as mature as gfortran or Intel's ifort/ifx, compilers, but it does have a built-in REPL.
Interesting - why do you say it would be nice if the posted stated that it was an affiliate link? Do you feel it takes away an option from you or reduces the link's value?
Intersections should prioritize in order:

0: trains which cannot stop
1: emergency vehicles working a current emergency (when an emergency is not in progress they are 5)
2: pedestrians on foot (including manual wheelchairs)
3: buses in a bus-only lane
4: bicycles and other human powered wheeled transport (ebike count only if most power comes from humans). This includes electric wheelchairs.
5: everything else. Including buses in mixed traffic (which should only be done when traffic is so light that it doesn't matter)

This encourages the type of transport you want people to use in your city.
Looking at the first result (https://www.celebritynetworth.com/about-us/), they claim to:

> take into account known salaries, real estate holdings, divorce records, royalties, lawsuits, and endorsements. Our estimates incorporate a proprietary formula that removes estimated taxes, manager's fees, agent fees, and lifestyle expenses. The results are fact checked and confirmed by a team of editors and industry insiders.

No idea how truthful or accurate this is, but $20M does not seem unreasonable. Are there any better sources you know of?
I can’t point you to it, but I have seen a survey that was done of homeless in one city. One third had untreated mental health problems. One third were substance addicted. I assume there was some overlap in those two groups but it wasn’t addressed in the numbers I saw.

Well... now that Google is starting to pay, and I expect Meta to follow suit, I don't think he will have much to argue for repealing the law.
Ask HN: What are some SMB AI integrations that impressed you?
I was listening to an episode of Latent Space with Bryan Bischof and this question came up.

Another way to ask it is: "What are some products you started paying for after they integrated with LLMs?"

For me, the biggest changes to my personal life have been:

1. ChatGPT (daily user across a variety of tasks).

2. GitHub Copilot (user since day #1 of beta).

3. FireFlies.Ai (the notes & takeaways from recorded meetings are amazing)

4. Midjourney (until ChatGPT is now multi-modal)

I play around and explore various tools as they pop up, but nothing that I pay for.

Really interested in hearing what others have experienced!

Tts almost the opposite.
Olympics has a bunch of objective measures of performance.
For individual sports its winning, for team sports theres various scoring/assist/defense/etc metrics that can be used.. plus if your team wins.

In tech, good luck. It's all vibes.
> It irritates me when people press the crosswalk button on quiet roads (where most of the time there is nothing coming, so you can just cross) before they have even looked to see if anything is coming.

Since you're comfortable asking pedestrians to jaywalk across the street if it looks clear, maybe you should also get comfortable with simply running the red lights on these quiet roads, since nothing is coming. At least in your case, you have a giant machine with airbags to protect you if you make a mistake.

"but based on the thousands of companies YC has funded over the years, companies lacking a technical co-founder underperform"

which could mean soon-to-be-underperforming companies fail to attract technical co-founders
Many of the seemingly small problems do require a good model of the world for context and edge case solving, so they still get very close to general intelegence.
I’m not diminishing the effort and skill necessary to be a good salesperson. I am, however, commenting on how often that turns into engineers being kept “in the back” when the paperwork starts.
Having started a small business I respect greatly the skills of great sales people and fund raisers and people who are great with people. But I don't respect them when they think they can start a business where they don't take what they actually make seriously and think the product will just work its self out if they sell hard enough.
The original title on this (which was there when I started this post) was infuriating - but it is still bad.
Is it speaking to the 'true' co-founder who is above the technical one? Maybe the other co-founder who is an 'idea innovator' could up-skill a little and stop pretending that you can build a business by putting on a power suit and making presentations with upturned hands and studied pauses?

May I ask what is it called?
The reason I'm so confident that you must have missed something is because I'm so confident that I'm right about bitcoin. Why are you confident the earth is round? It's because you've been able to debunk every bit of evidence that suggests it's not.

Since learning about bitcoin in-depth a few years ago, I haven't found a single criticism that I can't debunk. Perhaps you'll be able to offer the first, but the odds are heavily stacked against you. Especially if your main arguments against bitcoin are:

- it wastes energy (I disagree in the strongest way - I'd prefer it to use more energy)

- it doesn't work as a currency (I agree, not yet at least, maybe never)

- it's used differently to how early proponents thought it might be (I don't care)

If you've listened to and understood Michael Saylor's "pitch" for bitcoin, but still see the energy it uses as wasted, then I don't think there's much more I can add - it takes so long to explain bitcoin, and it seems that you've likely already heard everything I'll say.

One of us is the flat-earther and all I can say is that it's not me.
The first and last time I'll ever pay "gas fees". I can wire arbitrary amounts around the world for a fraction of that gas fee with the full backing of the global banking system.
> no news media can post to Meta platforms

The local CTV outlet still does (not sure about their wider brand, I only look for local news). They just can't link back to CTV's website anymore.
But then, that effort is rarely sustained by the "Ai artist" himself. It is usually someone else that builds and trains the model.
If that's happening then you're not really a cofounder - you're acting like an employee.

If you're a cofounder you do not have a manager...

Starting a company requires a diverse set of skills, almost none of which are technical. A technical person can excel at those tasks, but they have to have the desire to figure out what needs to be done before asking what needs to be done.
Btw, sea freight between US ports is not a thing due to legacy laws.

Thousands ships you can see in the US ports are all for import/export of goods.
The thing is, if your customer does not have legal presence in your country, tax office will likely not care as long as you pay your share of income tax and social security. I live in the EU and work as contractor to overseas companies since 2015, never had issues. I live in big city, I know from colleagues who live in smaller towns they are sometimes tested for tax correctness, but never for the form of their relationship to their customer.

In the same time if your customer does have legal presence in your country of residence then that's entirely different situation amd tax office might see it as tax avoidance, though this will depend on country of your residence as laws are implemented differently in different EU member states, and also the legal form of your own company.

If in doubt, hire accountant who specializes in your area.
To me the implausible claim is not that some homeless people are not of sound mind to the extent they refuse any and all help, but that there’s a significant number of them. It’s especially implausible given that homelessness varies so much by area and is linked to housing costs.

not very useful, but it's getting better with XLA. It does not just "work" by default for any given model, and if you're missing an HLO that has an optimized kernel written you lose benefits of accelerated computing thus people won't use it. I would not put any effort into it until they truly have it where you just cast `to_device(..)`.

A Possible Evolutionary Reason for Why We Seem to Have Continuity of Consciousness
and Personality.

Thesis : The very thing (a brain module) which allows for outside object continuity, that same brain module maintains inside self / personality / identity continuity.

Reasoning :

Evolution found out modelling the outside world is helpful for survival.
Some eons later, it figured out modelling yourself (self / agent) modelling the outside world is also helpful.
In the outside world, we keep track of continuity of objects through a brain module which hones in on the essence of objects
(e.g. tracking a prey or predator.)
so that EXACT matching algorithms aren't applied but ONLY approximate ones.
As soon as a high enough approximate match (>95%) is found,
we "register" it to be an exact match. i.e. the Brain bumps up the confidence level to 100%.
This is also the reason why we consider our friend Bob to be the same childhood Bob even though he has different hairstyle, clothes,
and other such properties. We don't call Bob who looks different than yesterday as an Imposter.
The damage to this brain module could lead us to call Bob today an imposter.
This same module also tracks continuity of self in a similar manner. Even though our "self" changes from childhood to adult
we "register" "changing self" to be the same thing.
i.e. internally we bump up the confidence to 100% when memories, etc. match and provide a coherent picture of the self.
A multiple personality disorder is just different stable states of neural attractor states.
Continuity is local to a personality but not global and hence transient.
This local continuity of information could link up globally, giving rise to coherent single personality.

I accepted your correction and reaffirmed he's still a piece of shit because jacking the price of any drugs for no reason apart from your ability to do so makes you a piece of shit. The specific drug in question may make you a smaller or larger piece of shit, but a piece of shit you remain.

For that matter, not even isolated to drugs. Charging a higher price for the same product when you are already a ludicrously profitable entity for no reason is a shitty way to treat customers.
I'm sorry, should have been clearer. The Spot robot with a manipulator arm (which has been used in some home projects before, see [0]) I believe totals up to about $200K. The base robot is $75K, which is what you linked to. I mentioned that figure because that seemed more relevant.

It's interesting, how all this stuff is written for the biz-bros, too -- try doing a google search on how to find a non-technical cofounder. Like, say you're an eng, with a technical idea you think would make the foundation of a good startup, and you're looking for someone to "found" the PM/marketing/bizdev side of things. From what I can see, the content/advice doesn't exist, even via YCombinator.

I love these tiny home blocks, they feel like a great first step; however, every article about a solution to homelessness seems to brush a bigger problem under the rug: zoning laws.

One route to fixing homelessness on a bigger scale is to repeal zoning laws. Until local politicians and their constituents start to edit their zoning laws (and therefore lower the cost of housing and other civic projects), most 'solutions' to the homelessness crisis will remain bandaids and not cures.

If anyone here knows of any recents attempts/successes in this area, I would love to read them. I hate zoning laws and enjoy seeing them ripped down

Very timely for a conversation I'm having this week. Thanks for bringing this up.

You can get a quick and dirty answer by assuming all of each country's population is at its center of population.

Centers of population of each country: https://cs.baylor.edu/~hamerly/software/europe_population_we...

Country populations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Member_state_of_the_European_U...

If I've done the math correctly (and this was very quick and dirty) you get something like +0:40 / 10 degrees E, roughly the longitude of Hamburg or Milan. Ultimately there's gridded population data that could be used to get a better answer but I suspect it's in this neighborhood.
A disappointing ending to the tale. I really want to know how Grammarly desktop works now. It must have interfered with the Chrome process in some bad way.
You can supply the model with a list of facts already, that’s not the problem. Within the context window the model is able to learn and generalize new information.

Fine tuning is very unintelligent in the sense that it doesn’t take the context of the training samples into account. It’s a dumb optimizer that’s trying to minimize next token loss. Gradient descent is not beholden to the behaviors you taught in the instruct fine tune step.
I wonder what version of Chromium they used. If it was a nightly, it could be weeks before the fix makes it into Chrome. They might've tested at a time when latest Chrome had the bug and Chromium didn't.

I like Michael's take that the real value in a founder is their ability to recruit the right team. What I don't think was said explicitly here is that typically technical people are progressively marginalized as the business grows. We get some harrowing stories where that doesn't happen, but I don't think that's the standard story. Like they allude to, it's a story of what the people who handle the money and investments value.

Context: Michael is a non-technical founder from Justin.tv and Twitch.
The problem here is this breaks the much more complicated issue of alignment.

The paperclip optimizer is a great parable here. If you build your intelligence to build as many paperclips as cheaply as possible don't be surprised when said intelligence disassembles you and the rest of the universe to do so.

So yea, HOW starts mattering a whole lot when you want to ensure it understands that it shouldn't do some particular things.
