>What is bad about trying to make it happen yourself,

"So committed I can't be honest"??

If you can't be honest and inform people of possible conflicts of interest, it is bad and you know yourself it's bad.
It's really decent without any GPU. Image analysis is somewhat long, but text prompts are fine. My Ryzen laptop does 2.5 to 4 tokens per second, my Mac pro more like 8.
This sounds somewhat similar to a problem I had with the same generation of equipment, but in an install with about half a dozen APs.

After I completely wiped the site configuration and migrated to the "new way" of doing it (I wish I had taken notes, I don't play with it often) and ensuring each AP got a fresh configuration, things stopped being "Weird".

I especially had issues with various IoT style sensors (e.g. ESP32) falling off, my largest annoyance was water leak sensors.

I wish I had some more technical notes to hand you, but it was definitely worth the evening of my time to basically "turn it off and back on again" from scratch.
There’s a book called Life’s Edge by Carl Zimmer[0] that’s similar to this article but gets deeply into the history of various explorations of the concept of “life” as well as issues that come up around it (eg organ donation) and what it means. It’s worth checking out if you liked this article.

Ironically you're making an assumption, speculating, and maybe they do know that for a fact - but we just don't simply know why they'd know, or if it's true. The best you can say is we don't know for sure.

But considering the board initially fired him for being dishonest/lying in an ongoing fashion, and the board wouldn't do the firing without evidence they could back it up with, it's not so hard to extrapolate that a return would be conditional on a deeper investigation and "full" cooperation.
You don't think that's at least a bit of an apples to oranges comparison?

I've struggled with it and still do, though I deal with it better now than even a couple of years ago.

There are no doubt many ways to address this feeling, but it helps to understand what is the underlying fear driving it, and addressing that. Even without knowing what is the root fear, though, maybe it'll help to remind yourself of a few things:

- You're entitled to recreation/recuperation/relaxation.

- You don't need permission to take a break, socialise, etc.

- You don't need to cram "productivity" into every nook and cranny of your life.

- The world will probably get by without your contributions.

- Sometimes something significant comes out of seemingly insignificant or mundane.

It's worth paying attention to that last one. The fact is, we often don't truly know the value of the time we spend until we have the luxury of hindsight. You might blow-off being "productive" one evening to go socialise and end up having a conversation that completely changes your life–or perspective—in some positive meaningful way.

Or, to provide a more common and grounded example: you get stuck on some problem and feel like you want to keep hammering away at it, but for whatever reason end up stepping away a while. When you reluctantly return to it, you figure out a solution in no time at all (at least compared to your earlier efforts).

Give yourself a break. Don't be too hard on yourself. It's okay to be ambitious or to want to keep growing—that's healthy. But life needs balance. Try to temper any self-talk that makes you feel bad about yourself or how choose to spend your time.

EDIT: formatting.
If they were working I wouldn't be bothered.
Real time processes are indeed critical in some contexts. And, arguably, we should be putting more effort into some of those contexts.

For the APL family, that's often a call for code which works with external interfaces. In many potential APL environments a handful of well designed custom primitives would get you where you need to go.

But no programming language is adequate for all roles, and that includes APL. (It can still be useful for modeling / prototyping for real time work, but that's not always necessary.)

Experience on: FastAPI, Flask, Nestjs, ExpressJs | SQL, NoSQL, Caching (Redis/memchached/tempfs | Years of *unix user. Confy with terminal. Bash | Docker but no Clustering yet | Kinda know about Lambda and Cloud VMs but no professional experience maintaining or hosting. Planning to host a porftolio on one of the free tiers just for sake of learning.

Learning: Currently trying to learn spring boot and microservice architecture with some other techs like kafka/rabbitmq/elasticsearch but I am open to working on other stuff including go, rails, js, php, rust, c and maybe some frontend stuff to create a "polished product feel".

Hello,
I am looking for an unpaid internship/junior position. (Fine by me if you insist on paying but I don't have a work permit for neither USA nor EU.) Got bored searching for jobs in limited Turkish market where all positions require +2 experience at least. Want to join a team and practice working on real products.
Except on an evolutionary timescale.
Immigration won't make future generations of Americans larger than the generation before them. We're just losing ground slower than Japan. Much studied and commented on. Tl;dr immigrants have lower birth rate than 100 or 50 years ago.

Japan has started to encourage immigration, but probably too little, too late.

Almost every country in Asia has a declining birth rate.

I tried to find estimates of Sam's net worth and found estimates from 250-700 million usd. However, it seems that most of his net worth is bound up in equity in private companies and startups[1]. 1 million usd could be a very substantial part of his liquid net worth.

This seems more like a configuration UI for new developer-targeted features, more like PowerToys-for-devs than the traditional Control Panel settings. “For power users” is a bit misleading.

Also, maybe they should just go back to the old concept of an extensible Control Panel, instead of accumulating a growing set of independent “settings” apps?
I too write and distrubute globally a press releases for all nonbinding agreements that I enter into.
This is a kind of self-dealing, and at least a conflict of interest.
That's a fair assessment. I'm in the process of moving to Linux because I find windows 11 to be so incredibly awful. I'm using Ubuntu and it's been mostly a good transition, but learning a new operating system does have a learning curve for me.
The firing was about "Altman not being honest with the board."

Since then, journalists have talked to both sides on and off the record and confirmed that the only reason for firing was distrust for Altman's honesty.

Altman's history seems to match. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/11/22/sam-alt...

>Four years ago, one of Altman’s mentors, Y Combinator founder Paul Graham, flew from the United Kingdom to San Francisco to give his protégé the boot, according to three people familiar with the incident, which has not been previously reported. .... he flew across the Atlantic with concerns that the company’s president put his own interests ahead of the organization — worries that would be echoed by OpenAI’s board.

>A separate concern, unrelated to his initial firing, was that Altman personally invested in start-ups he discovered through the incubator using a fund he created with his brother Jack — a kind of double-dipping for personal enrichment that was practiced by other founders and later limited by the organization.

“It was the school of loose management that is all about prioritizing what’s in it for me,”
Who can forget "the orb", altman seems like a complete clown who lucked into the holy grail that is openai:

Automation has increased but they still require workers.
I also struggled to find an interesting new thought in the article. It was a bit nihilistic to just say that there is no dividing line and leave it at that. Great... there is no clear-cut line, so what?

Categorization is a tool for scientists to use for comparison. It's kind of like k-nearest neighbors learning. We have to draw the line for categories somewhere initially, then we adjust where that line is over time and add more categories if needed.
I tried, but didn't succeed. It also said it couldn't do it without additional information when I said it was an Enigma encoded system and suggested I use an online Enigma decrypter.
But morality only concerns itself a certain complex class of organisms, right? We don't weep for loss of innocent life we inflict when we take antibiotics.
Hindi imo from entry level study with duo lingo is a language that is more about how you say it vs what you say. English is mostly about what you say. I am an English native speaker and love my language but it is very analytical which could potentially lead to overthinking which may lead to overstimulation that may lead to epilepsy. I am no doctor just an abstract thinker.

what a strange definition of the word "community" (or even "home") you must have to think this term does not apply perfectly to an area where people are living?

Bill Gates has been pledging to give away all his money for the last 20 years.. :-)

In 2008: "Bill Gates pledges to leave his £30billion fortune to charity... rather than his children" - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1027878/Bill-Gates-...

In 2022: "Bill Gates pledges to donate ‘virtually all’ of $113bn fortune to his foundation" - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jul/15/bill-gates-b...

In the meanwhile in 2023 is still the 6th richest. Giving money away is such a hard job :-))
Yeah, I'm talking about land in the Henry George sense. Maybe a better word would be "natural resources". In this framework you don't just have Labor and Capital, but you have Labor, Capital and Land. Labor uses Land to create wealth, and Capital gives Labor the tools to be more effective in wealth creation.
> Instead, I think the use case for reproducibility is allowing multiple trusted parties to independently build and generate signatures for the same binary. In GP's example, open source contributors could run their own builds independently (maybe on air-gapped machines) to produce multiple trustworthy signatures for the resulting binaries. F-Droid does this kind of thing today; you can get apps verified by both the original author and the F-Droid infrastructure.

You can do this, but I don’t think it has much of a value (or security) proposition on its own. The ideal world here would be “reproducible signed builds + occasional independent rebuilds with gossiping,” but that is significantly harder to operationalize than just build signing or reproducibility.
I don’t think it’s wrong to say that something is wrong even if you yourself are guilty of that thing.

A smoker who tells other people to not smoke is not necessarily being disingenuous. They might not be able to quit smoking, but they can also sincerely believe that smoking is a bad habit at the same time.
Yeah sometimes it's worth preserving the feel even when making improvements.

For example I really lament never having been able to visit the walled city in Kowloon. For a simple 1 square city block it's pretty legendary, and a huge influence on fiction and culture (Cyberpunk genre for example, ghost in the shell, games like stray, call of duty, etc). I'm sure it was going to collapse sooner or later but I'm sad they completely destroyed it instead of improving it and keeping something unique.
Pcbway.com has incredibly cheap assembly for low-volume runs. They will also source the parts and find replacements if they can't find the ones you requested.

Was it or is this just projection?

There could be conflict of interest or it could also be that OpenAI has no desire to get into the chip business.
The expensive brands sell accessories and shoes for that reason. You have to have a model figure to wear a Chanel dress or a Hugo Boss suit, but everyone can do a handbag or shoes.
Reminds me of the late 90s when I was trying windows NT4 and the message "please contact your administrator" that kept popping when something failed.

I was alone on my personal computer and kept wondering "who is my administrator?"

Took me a while to figure out that it was me.
I can’t tell if this is sarcasm or serious.

Posing the same challenge to deepseek-llm:67b-chat succeeds as well (ollama run deepseek-llm:67b-chat "$(cat prompt-segment.txt)"). This is something even smaller models are pretty good at.
> Does GTK give me KDE's window decorations when running on a KDE desktop or does it look "alien"?

No. Just like Win32 or Cocoa doesn't draw foreign chrome, neither does Gtk. Apps are free to draw whatever they want, and many do, like Firefox, Chrome or MS Office.

> Does every Linux desktop setup that runs Wayland have GTK libs installed?

I have yet to see any relevant linux distribution, that comes with display server (not just wayland) and doesn't ship with Gtk.

> Last I checked these were the main show stoppers when linking against a specific widget framework on Linux.

These are not show stoppers; they are subjective preferences. They are also demanding something from Linux that they do not demand from other systems.

> There's no least common system standard like on Windows or macOS (X11 was that standard, but oh well...)

It is, you just chose to ignore it (going full circle; it is called Gtk). You are free to ignore it, but it comes with a price. Complaining about the price without putting in an effort to change it according to these subjective preferences won't get anybody too far.
One of the problems with sentences provided to LLMs is that they may refer to specific subjects, and could potentially be part of the training set. For example the following is considered extremely difficult :

> oJn amRh wno het 2023 Meatsrs ermtnoTuna no duySan ta atgsuAu ntaaNloi Gflo bClu, gnclcinhi ish ifsrt nereg ecatkj nad ncedos raecer jroam

When you perform a google search for just 2023 Meatsrs, you can find a very similar sentence, and you could decipher the sentence very quickly …
For anyone who’s been in the high level SF tech scene for >15 years, $1M is not a substantial part of their liquid net worth. Certainly not for anyone who was in PGs inner circle 15 years ago.

Or check Jira and Git, it's not rocket science. If the person has a task assigned that would take a junior max 3 days of chill work to knock out but it's been 7 days and still no results and the person hasn't reported any blockers on the dailys, it's pretty obvious there's a performance issue.
You should be okay. I've found a couple of studies that have looked at groups of patients in the hundreds, with no worsening of hearing loss (and presumably, no worsening of tinnitus) [1][2]. Caveat is that both studies were done in kids, since they get more ear infections in general. Also, "topical ear drop medications containing gentamycin or neomycin do not appear to be ototoxic in humans unless the tympanic membrane (ear drum) is perforated" [3].

Well, that's why it's phrased as a joke. So they can shrink from and deny any possible conflict.
Over as a risk to society I mean.

I'm fully expecting to get it many times. It's just unavoidable. Wearing a mask just reduces the chances of getting what is now a light inconvenience.

For what it's worth I've never even been bedridden by covid. Once I sniffled a bit for a day or two, the one weird thing was that it wasn't in my usual hayfever season. The other time I had a bit of a headache and things tasted funny for a day.

But anyway I do a lot of things in my life that are way way riskier (including from a disease point of view) than getting covid so at this point there's just no more need to worry about it. It's just not in the top 30 things that are most likely to kill me anymore.

I don't worry so much about being overweight, about who I kiss, about exposure to pollution, about climbing steep slopes, about crossing the road even. These things are now way way more likely to kill me or make me sick than covid.
Interesting piece. I’m left more interested in this:

Also: which desktop? At least you can install multiple desktops and switch at login.

FWIW, I like Cinnamon best, but I also like KDE and XFCE (plus, XFCE works especially well over remote desktops and inside virtual machines). I've never cared for later versions of GNOME and ran away screaming.
its referring to the search space of valid segmentations, which if set up as a classical problem, it would be some type of DP with backtracking from deadend paths. The full input is known in both cases, its just that gpts arch doesn't need to search any segmentation space, its billions of parameters aproximate the function needed to arrive at the correct answser
Even more: that is currently the case in liberal democracies AFAIK. Any legislator can propose any law. It's then up to the legislative process to decide whether it should be accepted or not. (Possibly, a constitutional court could roll back laws that violate the constitution.)
How do you prove an AI didnt't make your art?
A language model being able to do something that rarely has to be done in the first place within milliseconds or less that would take a human a minute to do just does not seem that impressive. (I tried it without reading any of these comments below, and I got everything except "clinching" in about 20 seconds.)

I don't know. I am having a hard time overcoming the likelihood that scrambled and cipher-encoded words/solutions are part of the training corpus, thus fully explaining the phenomenon.

If someone can get it to decipher something like the zodiac killer's cipher, then I might be more impressed.
8 hours labor

A lot is relative. It's not a lot to be sitting in a bank or index fund. That's different from having it tied up in a risky private investment.

Also, depending how early he was, he could own significantly more than 5%.
But there's so many things killing people. And the people it kills now are so weak they will die rather soon from something else if not covid. They'll get a cold, a food poisoning or whatever else comes our way in normal life.

Here in Holland there aren't even any patients in ICU with covid anymore.
Nix (and by extension Guix) has had remote builds and signed build provenance for nearly 2 decades. It has also had a story to deal with both content-addrrssed and input-addressed (this is our term for the "stable identifier" for a workflow mentioned above).

I can understand not using Nix, but please take a look at how we've solved some of these problems, and our mistakes. There is no need to reinvent the wheel blindly. Feel free to reach out if interested.
There has also been at least one former OpenAI employee stating that Altman lied to him multiple times [1]. By itself this wouldn't be worth much, but it adds to the claims of Altman not being an honest guy.

Ah the old Wework gambit.
"His most famous work, Progress and Poverty (1879), sold millions of copies worldwide.[1] The treatise investigates the paradox of increasing inequality and poverty amid economic and technological progress, the business cycle with its cyclic nature of industrialized economies, and the use of rent capture such as land value taxation and other anti-monopoly reforms as a remedy for these and other social problems."
It's generally a fairly safe assumption that if something can happen once, it can likely happen twice. It's not guaranteed, but with fifteen billion years and 200 sextillion stars to work with, even the most unlikely things are pretty likely.
J influenced the creation of Pandas by Wes McKinney.

Ah, I sometimes have the wild thought that if he had just stuck with J or APL, Python may not be where it is today in ML. Python has become the Borg.
Why is it necessarily an all or nothing question? Can't we simply say we concern ourselves more with complex organisms than less complex? That reveals the emptiness of this question of where you put the dividing line.

Can you express value semantics in Python, or is everything still passed by mutable reference still and duck-typed at runtime? I’m being flip, and I like Python for some things, but for large robust performant software I find C++ way easier to work with as it works with me not against me to wrangle complexity.
> Nobody votes for the person who wants to fix difficult problems when you can just vote for the guy who points out flaws in the other guy's plan

This is the major flaw with democracy and the reason it’s a moral imperative for the US to spread democracy. It’s easy for a small group (in reality, many disparate small groups) to manipulate a large population.

While technically it’s true the people of the US could fix this with voting, in reality it’s an insane way to operate. Our democracy was originally founded with restrictions on who could vote as well at a time when we had much stronger cultural bonds. Limiting who could vote mixed in with a healthy culture is necessary for democracy to work - otherwise it is exploited.

We need and deserve leaders who want to do the best for their people. Representative democracy allows for parasites to prevent this while placing the onus on the voter for their woes, knowing full well the voter will never be able to organize in a meaningful capacity because the population is too large and diverse. If the answer to our problems is always “get out and vote better”, nothing is ever going to get done and anyone pushing that idea is either ignorant or malicious.
