Maybe you can't say, but is it safe to assume it's fairly easy to "fingerprint" apart? Or, do the counterfeits "get it right" enough where deep functional testing is required?
Not the same. Not in how it's achieved (merely adding grain isn't dithering), and not in the final effect.

Atari is before my time, but regarding SNES and gameboy, here the popular games went very much through word of mouth (and seeing) on the school playground.

I'd imagine this also be the case for Atari if multiple kids had Atari 2600's. Of course if it was rare, then that wouldn't work.

Are you suggesting that failure cases are lower when interacting with humans? I don't think that's my experience at all.

Maybe I've only ever seen terrible doctors but I always cross reference what doctors say with reputable sources like WebMD (which I understand likely contain errors). Sometimes I'll go straight to WebMD.

This isn't a knock on doctors - they're humans and prone to errors. Lawyers, engineers, product managers, teachers too.

It is. Postnord even sent a press release stating the same:

A wonderful aspect of using math to describe physics is the things admitted as possibly by the math might describe things possible in the physical reality but are very hard to observe given our frame of reference. The fact we’ve really found absolutely nothing observable that contradicts going backwards in time hints that it might in fact be possible under the right conditions. Our sense from our frame of reference that it isn’t doesn’t prove anything, just that we have only observed an asymmetry so far.

Sabine made a great episode on this recently, fwiw, and it’s worth watching if the subject interests you.

I feel like implicit in this framing is the idea that one's sense of value is linked to where one measures up in some arbitrary task. Should I feel worse about myself if I'm only in the 95th percentile for some activity I enjoy rather than the 99th? Most things worth doing are more enjoyable the more skilled you are at them, but of course our lives are finite and we have to make choices that might limit our development of any skill. But the more I am worried about where I measure up, the less I am enjoying the thing for what it is. As the saying goes, comparison is the thief of joy.
> A scheduled tender offer, which was about to let employees sell their existing vested equity to outside investors, would have been canceled. All that equity would have been worth "nothing," this employee said.

> The former OpenAI employee estimated that, of the hundreds of people who signed the letter saying they would leave, "probably 70% of the folks on that list were like, 'Hey, can we, you know, have this tender go through?'"

If that one person's speculation is true, does the non-profit have an alignment problem, with employees who are doing the technical work -- that the employees are motivated more by individual financial situations, than by the non-profit's mission?

(Is it possible to structure things such that the people doing the work don't have to think about their individual financial situations, and can focus 100% on the actual mission? Can they hire enough of the best people for their mission that way? And maybe also keep key technical talent away from competitors that way?)
Plan 9 is built as a text first graphical system without any text terminal protocols. Like Unix it has a command line but it's just a typewriter, you cant control the cursor. Instead you have draw(3) which serves the graphical facilities of a system which you load assets into and issue draw commands to manipulate and display them. Of course to maintain backwards compatibility there is vt(1) which is a graphical program that transparently gives you a vt-100 or 220 display.

Yes and no. The Czech law is very vague saying that contracts must be written in good will and be understandable by the signatories. It is the Czech supreme court which wrote up a legal test for understandability which you can find here https://www.epravo.cz/top/clanky/absolutni-zakaz-smluvnich-p...

I've translated the test using deepl:

Translation results

"In practice, the principle of fairness is manifested, inter alia, by the fact that the text of a consumer contract, especially if it is a form contract, should be sufficiently legible, clear and logically organised for the average consumer. For example, contractual terms must be of sufficient font size, not be significantly smaller than the surrounding text, and not be set out in sections which give the impression of being irrelevant. This principle of fairness also applies to the application of general terms and conditions. As stated in paragraph 9, general terms and conditions may also be applied in consumer contracts, but such application is subject not only to the formal limitations mentioned but also to restrictions as to content."

I think you're using the word "psychopath" when you're talking about something different, though I can't guess what.

Psychopathy is a personality disorder indicated by a pattern of lying, cunning, manipulating, glibness, exploiting, heedlessness, arrogance, delusions of grandeur, sexual promiscuity, low self-control, disregard for morality, lack of acceptance of responsibility, callousness, and lack of empathy and remorse.

(Which, now I read it, is disappointingly pattern matching the billionaire who invested in both OpenAI and also a BCI startup currently looking for human test subjects).

I can see arguments for either saying Altman has delusions of grandeur or lack of acceptance of responsibility depending on if you believe OpenAI is going too fast or if it's slowing things down unnecessarily, but they can't both be true at the same time.

Yes, the original video recording of the moon landing has been lost. It was broadcast live, but all we have is the grainy, shitty, washed out recording of the national news you see shown everywhere. The actual signal from the moon, which people at Mission Control would have seen, had a FAR better resolution and contrast.

It was recorded with basically the best camera they could send, and digitized and returned to earth with a proprietary signal format invented just for this purpose, to ensure the highest possible resolution and accuracy as 1969 tech could provide. But because it was proprietary, for the media event they piped the high resolution imagery into a crummy TV somewhere in Houston, and pointed a run of the mill TV production camera at this little TV screen, as a low tech conversion just for that night. Like a bootleg movie video.

Unfortunately the primary recording was accidentally destroyed, and the backups are missing. All we have now is that shitty TV camera recording of a TV screen with terrible contrast where you can barely see anything.

It is accurate in that for the billion people watching live, this grainy low contrast video is what they correctly remember seeing. That was the moon landing experience for nearly everyone on earth. But those in Mission Control DID have a nice crisp view, and the rest of us may never get to experience that :(
The difference is when writing satire its not strictly necessary to possess the work to do so. You can merely hear of something and make a joke or a fake story. Training data on the other hand uses the actual material not some derivative you gleamed from a thousand overheard conversations.
The title:
> Space Force’s secretive space plane is making its highest flight yet

The reality:
> a Space Force statement that says that this mission will see the space plane “operating in new orbital regimes”, indicates that this may be the highest and longest flight of X-37B so far.

They basically made up (at best it's a reasonable supposition) the highest flight ever comment and used it as a fact in the headline of the article. How is that acceptable journalism.
In this case I think I just mean more effective at seeming good to others.

It does OIDC integration out-of-the-box and for their free and cheap tiers. OIDC is like the "login with Google" stuff that doesn't require any setup. So I was able to have SSO setup immediately with our Office 365 domain without bothering to setup SAML or anything.

The VPN clients for Mac and iOS are on the App Store, which may not mean much, but having developed VPN apps for both, what it means is: it is far less likely break or muck with your OS's networking in practice because it's sandboxed and can only use Apple's SDK for interfacing with the OS. This is compared to every OpenVPN client I've used on various platforms, which must run as root and often is setting up and tearing things down with shell scripts that can get hairy as you add more complexity / moving parts.

(Note that this is also true for Wireguard's client, just not OpenVPN)

The first three users are always free, so we're able to demo it easily. It's also listed on AWS marketplace, so as we move to start buying some licenses, it's billed through our AWS bill (i.e. I don't need an act of Congress to get a credit card number entered and a new monthly invoice reconciled within my company).

You can configure how often it forces reauthentication, which is probably the biggest benefit over vanilla Wireguard. Wireguard doesn't have mechanisms for expiring and replacing keys, so it solves that.

There's also an open source implementation of the master service (called headscale) that you can run on your own, and I was able to fairly easily set it up and get the existing Tailscale apps from the App Store to be reconfigured to utilize.

Honestly it's the cleanest VPN experience I've had if you need to deal with any kind of SSO and/or dynamic user/client provisioning. If you're just setting up point-to-point between a few of your own servers and clients that won't change, maybe just stick to Wireguard. But once you start needing anything more than that--I'd give Tailscale a shot first.
In sotuations where it is about space you wouldn't choose aluminum. Also afaik most automotive wiring that is certified is copper. Going from copper to aluminum means you will have to put bigger crossections in. This is more weight and more space.

A blog shows posts in descending order of date. That's the only visible bit of information architecture so it influences how you use the site.

A personal website or fan page might not be set up that way. Unlike a blog, it may not feature periodic posts. It could just be one big page that's incrementally updated with no visible date. Every page may be designed differently, as the backend may be pure HTML/CSS without any templating rules.

> it rarely happens that it just finds stuff that's flat out wrong

"Flat out wrong" implies determinism. For answers which are deterministic such as "syntax checking" and "correctness of code" - this already happens.

ChatGPT, for example, will write and execute code. If the code has an error or returns the wrong result it will try a different approach. This is in production today (I use the paid version).

I could have a 16 bit wide bitmask in it, lets flip them ~myMaskFast16, that leaves the higher order bits set to 0xFF... whether I care about them or not.

> The point is, use a conversion, cast to a simple type, make your code compatible.

Casting to a type that depending on platform may or may not hold enough space to represent the value is not "making it compatible" it makes it non portable.

95%-ile isn't that good.*

* The caveat of course being that you dedicate all your available waking hours (not occupied with life-sustaining activities) to training and deliberately practicing a single particular skill/game and also trying to do your best every single time, which is incredibly mentally taxing. It's even more mentally taxing as you get older, since your fluid intelligence diminishes.

Also, another author's mistake is diminishing the role of talent. While we know that with deliberate practice most people can achieve a 95%-ile, the real advantage of talent is how fast you can get there. Because if it takes you half as long to get there, you are able to start reaping the rewards earlier, and getting first-mover advantage.
The framing is a lot narrower, and pretty clear if you’ve ever played overwatch. In that context a lot of people claim they want to get better, but don’t even grab for the lowest hanging fruit.
It probably depends on your objective. 352 lb is about the cutoff before you become a competitive weight lifter. Most people probably don't want to do that. Same thing happens in gaming, 95th percentile is probably about where you get to the point of "learned how to play the game up to the competitive level".

The majority of my hobbies are non-competitive. If I get to one day be a 95th percentile hiker, I will be ecstatically happy. However I'd be willing to bet that for my (narrow) niche of software - I am well into the three 9s by virtue that while most backend engineers will have touched what I work on, they haven't done it for 10 years in a demanding environment.

It's a computer. That's why. Change the concept slightly: would you use a calculator if you had to wonder if the answer was correct or maybe it just made it up? Most people feel the same way about any computer based anything. I personally feel these inaccuracies/hallucinations/whatevs are only allowing them to be one rung up from practical jokes. Like I honestly feel the devs are fucking with us.
I am still so confused by this whole saga. No one has explained how or why the entire board decided to do a coup, and then simply changed their minds a few days later.

Again, this is horrible, horrible cherry picking!

1. 2022 was right in the middle of the disruption, which is now over.

2. You're showing a derivative chart and not the value, which amplifies noise into signal. What if it showed a giant leap in the following quarter (which it does!), would you change your mind from "it's terrible" to "it's amazing"?

3. Disposable income tends to be a noisy statistic anyway as it's a delta statistic conflates motion of two different measurables (income and expenses) that are perfectly measurable by themselves.

4. You're just wrong anyway. Here's the FRED chart (always go to FRED, always, everyone else is peddling something) of exactly the statistic you posted. Tell me if this chart is consistent with the story you interpreted:

Edit, sorry: that was the nominal chart, here's the inflation-correct one. Needless to say, it tells the same story:

Honestly I agree. Humans make errors all the time. Perfection is not necessary and requiring perfection blocks deployment of systems that represent a substantial improvement over the status quo despite their imperfections.

The problem is a matter of degree. These models are substantially less reliable than humans and far below the threshold of acceptability in most tasks.

Also, it seems to me that AI can and will surpass the reliability of humans by a lot. Probably not by simply scaling up further or by clever prompting, although those will help, but by new architectures and training techniques. Gemini represents no progress in that direction as far as I can see.

I don’t know what I think, it’s not a normal situation in my country. Businesses sign the union agreement, because it is a collaborative process between the union and the employer. The whole system is predicated on good faith. Tesla is openly being adversarial and the union has now after years said enough, and declared a legal strike. Strikes are usually resolved long before this stage. Unions in Denmark and Norway don’t often go on sympathy strikes for Swedish unions.

In my opinion, screw the Musk boy. There are other EV manufacturers.
normal times was well within the free tier, and this was even with a pre-warm job turned on for our endpoints. Even the spikes were not very expensive. Back then 80% of our bill was RDS and I think we were paying under $50/mo for beyond-free-tier usage of lambda. It was a tiny fraction of what the cost was when we had EC2 clusters.

If you're ok with cold-starts on less-used routes you could probably make any medium to low traffic app run totally free on jets (other than db)
Well put. I’m not touching anything Google does any more. They’re far too dishonest.

I know exactly where the expectation comes from. The whole world has demanded absolute precision from computers for decades.

Of course, I agree that if we want computers to “think on their own“ or otherwise “be more human“ (whatever that means) we should expect a downgrade in correctness, because humans are wrong all the time.
