It's amazingly bad timing that Silicon Valley ended before NFTs, OpenAI, WFH, and Musk's purchase of Twitter.
Hmmm.. I would guess decoupling would allow variable ratio steering based on speed or preferences.
Have you seen the massive flat surface on the front of pretty much every pickup? It seems like if anything the hood angle would make it better than those.
I think it depends on how much you expect your model to be used, and how quickly the model needs to react. The higher either of those becomes the more likely you'll want to specialize.

If you expect your model to be used a lot, and you don't have a way to distribute that pain (for instance, having a mobile app run the model locally on people's phones instead of remotely on your data centers) then it ends up being a cost balancing method. A single DGX machine with 8 GPUs is going to cost you about the same as a single engineer would. If cutting the model size down means you can reduce your number of machines that makes increasing headcount easier. The nice thing about data cleaning is that it's also an investment- you can keep using most data for a long time afterwords, and if you're smart then you're building automated techniques for cleaning that can be applied to new data coming in.
Really? How could this model not have had front page articles on HN? Is the self-hosted one as good as the one or their website?
I don't know about your org but in many companies changing from tech lead (a role) to IC (another role) isn't considered as demotion. I personally love being IC.

But I understand you might not want to be IC again, so I think you know what to do ;)
I mean clearly you can read it since it's the same text color and background color as the price you are complaining about, as well as all the specs.
So you have a Sandybridge processor with AVX support (but not AVX2). Could you open llamafile in a debugger and find out which instructing is faulting and what its address in memory is? I haven't personally tested Sandybridge but I'm reasonably certain we designed the build to not insert any incompatible instructions in there. Our intent is to support you. I also might be able to fish my old ThinkPad out of the closet if you don't have time. In any case it'll happen soon.
It looks like they’re using OpenPose [0] images fed to a special “pose guider” model. You can make them from just regular video.

People decry (and I am one of them) that the copyright system in the United States hasn't done a good job of preserving our cultural heritage, but it seems the issue is larger than that. The BBC hasn't done a fantastic job, either. They lose things, or erase them, or simply never broadcast them again.
Here in Switzerland, you sometimes see e.g. a Piaggio Ape: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piaggio_Ape

And a number of construction jobs in our house were performed by a gentleman who arrived with a Vespa unless he specifically had to transport something sizeable.
You know that's a good point. I know everyone in my circles will feel that way. You can get away driving a normal Tesla but this one is really going to say something in particular. That you also have this sort of immature brash attitude that has led to Musk's negative public opinion. So you are right that might tank the product.

As the article explains, the chip was manufactured by SMIC.
We call it a sprint in software engineering and that is how we run marathons :)
A great point! A smaller AI with a rather limited parameter count could be trained for individual needs so some things (chat moderation) might be easier to do than other things (fact check peer reviewed papers in a verifiable way). For some use cases it would be overkill to have a conscience but an AI spokesperson for a company will probably have a company-aligned conscience for obvious reasons.
The guardian and Le Monde covered it.

Also there was a lot of press around the Niles dam, and a conspiracy theory about Tigray rebels founded by Egypt and Cia.
I need a van or truck for work.
Negative, I am a p-zombie.
> just sales

This sounds like a typical engineer's summary. It is a dismissal - just like the video talks about tech being dismissed.

Recruiting a co-founder is not "just sales". The video is taking about an archetypical salesperson who still can't buy a tech guy (maybe their sales skills are not so good).
Your being a jerk, demanding technical answers from someone making a off the cuff comment? "I assumed you did the math" is rude and inflammatory.
One way of seeing a subset of reflex behavior is speculative execution - as in, you'll start executing on stimulus before the brain has a chance to evaluate it, but when it eventually does, it may cancel the reflexive action. This is absurdly efficient if your reflexes are well-calibrated.

> Developers should additionally use -Werror

I've yet to be convinced that this makes sense for every warning. It really depends on the warning IMO.

Edit to elaborate:

I was mostly referring to non-committed/non-release code not deserving -Werror [1]. However, even for release builds, the story kind of depends on whether your builds are hermetic or not. If your commit also includes a snapshot of all your dependencies including your compiler toolchain executables, then off the top of my head, I can't think of any cases where you want warnings without errors (though perhaps there might be some). But if you're ever going to compile the same commit with a different toolchain (like say your system toolchain that you updated), then I don't think you want -Werror, otherwise every time the warning catches a new case, you'll fail to build something that previously compiled fine.

Games are a medium for artistic expression but saying that 3D hardware was designed to improve art production, or that NVIDIA was first in market, is incorrect. The hardware was designed to improve the consumption experience of something that is a mix of programming, game mechanics (which are both math and psychology), and potentially various art forms including visual, music, and narrative. It all needs to add up to fun or it won’t find much of an audience.

Gamers aren’t primarily spending time or money for the art and neither was NVIDIA. I will grant that the hardware improvements did make the visual aspects more lifelike and detailed and that allowed for increased artistic range, but production costs generally increased accordingly.
Will your compensation be the same? If so, enjoy the lesser responsibilities and leave the lead role vague on your resume.
> Lots of things! Israel is generally the largest recipient of foreign aid[1]. This is partially, but not exclusively, because Israel is considered important to various domestic groups for reasons that are outside of normal policy concerns[2]. For lots of reasons Israel (and the groups it abuses) are an important domestic political issue.

I didn't grow up in a particularly Jewish part of the US so I keep forgetting what a big deal Israel is to American Jews. You're right. There's lots of domestic groups in the US with ties to Israel and they're a huge political entity. I just didn't put two-and-two together.

> For instance - the Saudi involvement in the Yemeni civil war has been going on for a long time, is pretty objectionable, and is pretty hard to defend. Yet it's not covered very much because the fact of the Saudi-Yemeni conflict is awkward for the US. The US security apparatus thinks its important to be on good terms with Saudi Arabia for various reasons and so our information delivery apparatus warps the information it shows us to avoid making us think about it too much.

It is awkward, but the Khashoggi incident got plenty of airtime in the US despite it also being awkward for the US and despite the US only dealing with Turkey in terms of NATO. I'm still not convinced this is how the news apparatus works because I can think of many counterexamples like this. But I'm not going to deny that Israel is a huge issue in the US because of how deeply involved Israel is with American Jews.
Not totally. They have two redundant computers in the control loop. But they worked out this was a shitty idea if there was a failure so there are mechanical and electrical backup systems. Whilst "fly by wire" technically speaking they don't involve a computer in the loop.

I'd still rather have a totally mechanical backup.
On Ireland, our biggest business partner in Europe is still the UK.

I don’t think we’ll be clambering to add friction to business with Northern Ireland and Britain so we can hang out with Portugal and Iceland.
Lots of internet searching and even a few calls to HP support. To be honest, we dismissed some of the earlier suggestions to upgrade the other drivers from other vendors... so maybe most of the time was us getting past ourselves and our disbelief.
You could probably make money just taking other peoples' money and doing this for them.
Yeah, to be fair.. the people I know from Wall St tech that left for Amazon were not the best tech people I knew. The best tech people would have found more well compensated roles within Wall St tech.

Generally a mix of people who exhausted other paths to higher compensation by their mid 30s - mid 40s (senior management track / trader track) and this was the next big thing.
> given enough money on the table and the opportunity.

In my personal experience it was never even that much money. Some people just really want to feel like they've pulled a fast one, even if all they really end up doing is wasting everyone's time. As a nerd who is generally not motivated by Machiavellian shenanigans, I have a hard time seeing these kinds of predators coming.
All full-size American pickups are pedestrian killers, particularly of toddlers.[1] There’s nothing unique about the Cybertruck in this respect.

They also are more than twice as likely to kill the occupants of other vehicles in crashes.[2]

The public policy choices that led to full-size pickups as currently designed becoming the family transport of choice were incredibly dumb.

So be mad about the Cybertruck, by all means. But all these vehicles are killers.

I'm not sure what you mean by "outright stealing." The chip was designed by Huawei, and it was produced by SMIC on the N+2 process that SMIC developed using DUV devices it had access to.
Well, yeah, a language feature to improve program correctness won't work if you use it wrong. But in both examples, just from the interfaces, this should be caught in code review without even having to read the libraries being called. Anytime you take a raw pointer to a smart pointer owned object, you should question yourself, what happens to the lifetime of my object. Because you just took the safety off C++s classic footgun of memory management, and if you are not extremely careful, you are going to lose a foot.
I think there are lots of people that want an EV, but drive terrible roads.
This. Full sheets of almost everything are 4x8.
You can't get a Toyota Tacoma with an 8 ft bed, which IMO is the most practical truck model. An 8ft bed truck that can only carry 3 passengers is not very practical.

I regularly purchase 8'x4' sheet goods in my Tacoma with no issue.
Every point you made here either reiterates something I've already said or misinterprets the nature of the discussion altogether.
I ran X on 4MB. It was heavily dependent on swap but it was just about usable for basic things especially if the application was a remote client.
Yep, that is the point of the first phase. The next phase is going to be attaching liability for incomplete SBOMs.

The way it will likely play out is that if you were breached due to a undisclosed component in a purchased product the product will either be deemed defective or the vendor will be liable. If CISA succeeds at pushing that you will see the SBOMs becoming correct and exhaustive real fast, though likely excessive due to ass-covering.

But at this point the goal is clearly just establishing a paper trail so that it can eventually be audited for consequences. Maybe they will fail at the next step due to industry pushback against actual consequences for shoddy work, but that is clearly where it is trying to go.
As an employee I would be really upset if you forced me to use a specific browser to do my work.
right, so people who are looking for a cofounder to fill those roles aren't looking for a nontechnical cofounder; they're looking for a cofounder. they may have to accept a nontechnical cofounder, but that's not what they're looking for. that's why there's no advice to be found on finding a nontechnical cofounder

20+ years ago I was in tech support and had to help someone figure out an issue where her document wouldn't print on a Brother printer. Turns out a section divider line would block the entire doc from printing (by crashing the app) if the line's end-cap style was set to square rather than rounded.
Yeah I watched that kurzgesagt video yesterday too. You're still a ghoul if you defend a man who was personally involved in bombing 150,000 civilians.
This brings back great memories. I wrote a text based adventure game in turbo pascal for a high school project (97/98) and had a blast. It was a really easy language for my needs and skill level. Started a life long love of code.
Yeah but it’s hard to find the hardware this OS is designed for. There’s little need for it. Compared to the oodles or low powered arm boards out there that would love this. So the missed opportunity is just that a lot of effort has gone into a very narrow platform that would probably be more appreciated on a diff platform

Super cool project though of course
> From what I’ve heard, trucks are huge now due to various fuel efficiency regulations. A big truck is easier to make with fewer regulations.

That's only a part the reason. The more important half is that bigger vehicles, whether trucks or SUVs, have much higher profit margins.
Are you saying the best statement you can use to describe SpaceX is "incredible marketing"?
After owning a Thinkpad Carbon (and running PopOS on it), I would absolutely get another one of their products (probably a p16). For me it's been rock solid investment.

I wouldn't consider anyone else, well maybe System76. Their top of the line Threadripper desktops have that "Lure of the Sirens" feel about them. :)
us sighted people are imaginatively impaired. we need screenshots because we don't have developed the capacity to imagine an interface from a textual description like blind people probably do.
Falcon Heavy was supposed to, in early designs, but they abandoned this idea due to the complexity involved - fuel would need to be pumped, which means complex flow dynamics + extra hardware that could fail (and catastrophically so).

Outside of KSP and some rocketry books, I haven't seen it.
I'd take that bet. The Ranger isn't manufactured anymore (edit: yes it is; can't recall having seen one though) and I've never seen a Maverick used commercially. I don't think I've even seen one that didn't look freshly washed.

I mean, this isn't even hard to figure out: the F-150 is the best selling vehicle (not truck, but vehicle) in the U.S. for what, a decade or more?

Like nothing changed since then? HTML support is more common and widely accepted than ever and well standard now for marketing emails. Not to mention the massive dominance of mobile mail reading etc. It's all the use-case.... Transactional emails maybe a case for plaintext, but marketing and newsletters etc...? HTML is fine. Not much relevancy now.

Put some effort into your designs so your message and UX comes across well. That's the advice.
>The lack of "continuing education" in the era of the internet is baffling to me.

It's all about incentives. That is companies are incentivised to give continuing entertainment for ad clicks, rather than building a world of the educated that may have a better all outcome for society (but probably not the ad companies at all).
That's a regional/local choice. In my area, we have a number of signaled crosswalks which never activate unless someone pushes the button. They are absolutely instant.

They're not traffic signals, though, they are a dozen or so strobing yellow lights. It's effectively a red light based on local law, but it's way more noticeable for approaching traffic.
But why I need to come up with system similar to timezones? You translate all hours once and that's it, no? It might be weird at first have business hours from 9pm to 3am, but those are just numbers. I don't find it any more weird than starting a day at 6am.
As an engineer, yes Firefox is a good solution

One of the ways to print things (especially on windows) is Via GDI. [0]

Basically using the OS's rendering to make a raster that is then sent to the printer. The main thing the printer's driver does in this case is know how to take the bitmap and tell the printer to print the bitmap (i.e. chunking data and/or sliding the right commands into the bitmap stream)

Contrast to, say, PostScript which allow for more compact and better scaling definition of what to print. This obviously works better for quality, however for a long time the issue was you then had to have sufficient processing power on the printer itself to handle it.

If you switch the site to Australia[0] you'll notice they don't do this - it's because by consumer law they're not allowed to, and you have to quote the "drive away price"

You can't even deduct the various gov rebates or tax exemptions; only mention that you _may_ qualify.

They have a smaller and lower contrast "after cost savings" at the bottom of the page - but the price on the site is the price, as it damn well should be.

Oh certainly. Trucks inside the USA are their own kind of culture (which I do not feel great about).
I have substantially less exposure to this space than you seem to, but even when trying to start projects with friends, this holds true. So often, I get pitched by pals who think the idea is what they've done, and at that point, it's up to me to "code up." What I would love to hear is, "I've been talking with these three businesses already, and they seem interested." or even, "I'm really worried about the sales and marketing side of things, so that's the problem I'm going to focus on."

Nobody's ever come even close to that. It takes zero coding to have those things already started, and yet nobody even goes down that path before looking for a "code monkey."
I've started to look at scaling like you're killing a golden-egg-laying goose but there's a 1 in n chance that it'll pay off for you. n starts higher than you'd hope and rises as you make tradeoffs.

I've been thinking about scaling a bit because I've been digging into a large SaaS product for a client and find I am able to replicate their locally relevant output at a fraction of the cost. Scaling up has allowed this SaaS to serve an entire country but a majority of their user base think in terms of one or two local counties. Consuming their output means subsidizing work they do that's irrelevant to (or might actually compete with) your own interests.
Ah, the good old BBS days. I wrote a door library for Turbo Pascal back in '89 when I was 17 after I learned how to write an interrupt based serial driver, and then released it as shareware. It saw quite a bit of use until the mid-90's when the BBS scene fell off a cliff.
Most bugs are software issues, though.

My avocado tree usually drops a dozen or two avocados a week for most of the year, so I've had a lot of time and examples to experiment on for storage.

Once they're off the tree, ripen at room temperature for about a week. Then transfer into the fridge in an airtight container, they usually last in the fridge for another 2 weeks.

Doing fridge first means they never ripen and just dry out before softening.
None of that is correct. Ripe avocado's typically don't have any darks spots or "veins". Ones that are overripe or poorly stored can, but even then it's typically not mold, it oxidization. The "veins" are part of the structure, and thicker/woodier with late season, but not usually colored at all.

There is a fungal (again, not mold) infection that can happen from the stem end down, but that's rare and also not a harmful fungus for humans.

If there is actual mold on your avocado, you are storing them incorrectly or something.
The Rivian is probably their real competition based on price, specs, and trim.
yeah, I wonder where it would be if they'd continue to put development money on the drivetrain and battery tech. It just seemed they left the concept behind despite growing sales numbers, and moved towards 6000 lb SUV EVs...
