I have a feeling that if people made one of those pros and cons sheets and did the crossing off equal things, these conversations would go easier

I can't imagine equating things like the smell of weed and having to share a train with a homeless person, with death, death, accident clean up, new barriers added, and then more death anyways

There are plenty of LoRAs on Hugging Face.

e.g., https://huggingface.co/tloen/alpaca-lora-7b

But HF is a great place to download stuff, but doesn't really offer much for discoverability. How you find LoRAs you want to use ks a better question, and I don't have an answer (for LLM LoRAs, at least.)
They're diagnostic criteria intended for use by physicians, not for random internet people to diagnose others without even performing any kind of assessment.

I had been following C-18 closely. Wanted it to fail. Facebook/Meta bailed out of the market, deciding to not paying anything. The other one was Google which finally settled for paying $100m per year to a single institution which will divide the money among others.

That's still far less than what Canada was asking. 2% of their yearly revenue which was bumped up to 4% after Meta left. But Google's $100m is more like 0.5% of their yearly gross revenue in Canada.

Growing up in a country with internet censorship, I can tell it is a huge slippery slope not to mention the dangers of having to upload government ID to access adult websites. I hope politicians come to their senses on this.

I hooked my home up with 3 Unifi AC Pros + ERPOE5 in 2015/2016. They've been running for 8 straight years without ever restarting. Never had a problem.

Granted, I never updated the firmware in the 8 years. Heck, I'm not even sure how I can get back to the web UI to control them.
I think the discussion is caused by different implicit understanding of what "documentation" means. Different types of documentation have different, conflicting needs; an amazing reference document is a horrible tutorial and an amazing tutorial is horrible for reference purposes. So you shouldn't try to make your reference material be useful as a tutorial, that way lies madness, make a separate document if you need one.

This is an interesting overview of these concepts - https://www.writethedocs.org/videos/eu/2017/the-four-kinds-o...

I disagree. The cuts are focused on commercial operations roles, not engineering. I see this as a sign that the adults have entered the room, and realized more work is needed to get the technology ready for commercial use rather than trying to prematurely skip to the end to keep up appearances with Waymo.
Not wanting your children to be influenced by pornography at a formative age is a very reasonable fear in this era.
I guess so! I mean hey, if you never drink and you weigh 150lbs and have an empty stomach and you chug two Bud Lights... you're gonna get drunk! But this is not the situation most people are in when we think of someone "having a few beers".

And maybe people have different ideas of "drunk"? I don't think simply feeling some effect from alcohol constitutes being drunk.

Nice share! And glad to hear your good spirits about our debate, seems not every thread is subject to Godwin's law

I agree with you -- a complete rethinking -- I've actually spent the past couple years thinking a lot a lot a lot about this. And it seems that it's not just a matter of a better design tool, but also a way of how design works in relation to code, and perhaps how the code itself changes!

Sometimes I think that Design Systems, which feel like they came from the design side of the divide, actually was a motion that started with engineering. All the componentization of React etc under the hood really powered the process where designers make components. Before that it was more typical for designers to provide these 1-page sheets with the colors, margins, etc that were more like a style guide than a system. And perhaps the strict component-based approach is part of what's throwing us into the pit of despair from time to time.
Re: 'Also "common chemical sunscreen ingredients cause cancer" is a common FUD trope. Sunscreen reduces cancer mortality, full stop. Each person's circumstances vary based on their daily habits, geography, and personal/familial history.'

You didn't actually prove anything with your counter point here, as confident as you are - which is as confident to whom you're responding to.

At this level of ideological-indoctrination, it seems each person would have to actually participate [run and observe them] in the trials to see if certain ingredients cause an increase in rates of cancer.

How else do people indoctrinated into a belief, believing they simply know better - and must be right, than have people repeat clinical trials on animal models [or better]? Genuine question.

Micheal Geist is a very well known figure in Canada, and has built a solid reputation raising awareness of important privacy issues. He's testified in parliamentary advisory committees and CRTC hearings. The way you keep referring to him as "this blogger", unfairly makes it sound like some rando on the web wrote it.
Sort of related but I've really enjoyed setting up a urlwatch - https://urlwatch.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ - setup. Especially once you get past the boilerplate of pupetteer and can boot up a chrome instance to scrape websites with javascript.

I'm not so worried about the corporation's ROI calculations at the top as much as paperclip maximizing middle management with warped incentives and little in the way of corporate controls or morals. We're one badly designed KPI and generic internal data collection API away from such spying falling through the cracks. Once it's there, the incentives are heavily against looking too hard at where the data came from until a public scandal draws an executive's attention.

It's played out over and over again, especially with Facebook. They don't deserve the benefit of the doubt, even when "logically" the ROI for the company doesn't make sense. Facebook specifically can't be trusted at the executive level either; that culture trickles down.
> But the object passing the event horizon passes through just fine.

Yes, but due to the extreme time dilation, will they observe/experience the heat death of the universe prior to entering the black hole?

If so, does it make sense to say they actually enter it in any meaning full sense from the perspective of our existence?

As in 'yes', they will enter the black hole, but they will enter it an infinite number of years from now when our universe "functionally" no longer exists.

Isn't this just another form of a particle with constant acceleration, accelerating to the speed of light? Yes, from their perspective, they reach it, but from our perspective, it will take an infinite amount of time and so we say they never can reach it from either our perspective or theirs? I don't see how this can be any different. Gravity is a constant accelerator.

(And note I'm calling out the constant acceleration case above for approaching 'C', not the increasing acceleration requiring 'exponentially increasing energy each second' case).
This is a silly argument. Public sharing on the internet has nothing in common with storing on a private storage service. Posting something online you are literally inviting people to look at it, and there is copyright law that governs how it can be copied. You can argue training AI models on internet data violates copyright (though it almost certainly doesn't) or that the law needs to be changed. But none of that has anything to do with training on private data. It's the same kind of "you wouldn't steal a car" false comparison.
While awful by today's standards, they recorded their feats because those awful actions allowed their civilization to thrive, even at the cost of others' perishing. Plus, by boasting of your awful deeds, you're more likely to dissuade would-be challengers.

It would be lovely if we had knowledge from the common man from throughtout history, but the common man wasn't typically the reason for domminance.

>Do we know why Ford stopped making what seemed to be a universally loved vehicle that was in high demand?

The Crown Victoria was not in high demand except by state and local law enforcement agencies and taxi companies. That is not a large enough market to support an assembly line.

The Crown Victoria sold less in a year (20,000-30,000) than the Explorer sold in a quarter (50,000-60,000). Most of the Crown Victorias sales were low-margin fleet models.

The Caprice Classic was killed off by GM for the same reason, and the Dodge Charger (~80,000/yr) is not long for this world.
Hi,

Georg - one of the authors is here.

In fact, this is exactly what we argue: Keep data the consumer experience high a Paas platform (Fabric, BigLake, Databricks, SF, ...) can make a lot of sense, whereas for the best data development/creator experience a high-code solution based on solid software engineering best practices should be the preferred solution - at least in my/our(authors) opinion.

Right, said another way, is driving a completely deterministic activity or does it sometimes require general intelligence. If it's not completely deterministic, then you might need a human in the loop.

People are going to believe the worst about AI for the rest of the decade, for reasons entirely unrelated to what actually happens.

Concluding "if we respect people's feelings and do one weird trick, people will suddenly trust AI" is naive beyond number.

Considering many cities were actually retrofitted to become car/sprawl centric, I'm going to say that's a political will/lobbying problem rather than a real one.

Although it may have become a problem with all this sunken cost.

I actually admire other work that EAs do, but disagree with them and the broader safetyist coalition on this issue.

There are critiques and negative evaluations that have nothing to do with offense. You've simply chosen the wrong word to describe a negative evaluation. And indeed, the contemporary habit of framing critique in terms of offense is a symptom of much larger problems in society. "Offense" is an unfalsifiable subjective state that is being used to widespread and pernicious effect. Nobody should really care what offends me (and by the same token, others).
You have to search the streets yourself and be your own advocate if you want to recover your stolen car.

In the last 8 years SPD has become completely unmotivated to do their job despite never having their budget cut. Adjacent police departments like Kirkland and Lake Forest Park are much more willing to do their job, but they fire officers who don't do their job, while SPD retains these caustic, non-performing officers.

So long as we let our officers in Seattle getaway with billing fraudulent hours that weren't worked, ignoring core job duties, and slow rolling the duties that they do do, we will be stuck with an ineffective police force.
> I think of it like a format war. The winner isn’t usually the one that is the most technologically advanced.

The stakes are a tad different. I can accept the slightly lower visual quality of VHS compared to Beta. For self driving, if the lower technological level results in a slightly higher chance of "you're dead", I'm not going to be cavalier about what I choose.
I know that to be the case. I've checked the numbers from reputable sources numerous times.

But my mind still fails to comprehend this. It's a $80k cad luxury idiosyncratic vehicle. How's this out-selling civic and corolla, kia and hyundai base models? Have millionaires outnumbered regular folks by that much worldwide? I just don't understand that number if it's talking by units sold (and not revenue or profit). My entire world-view fails to make sense of that factoid.
There already is. There always has been! It's called fraud.

If you trick someone into signing a contract, then that contract is fraudulent.

If you tell someone that you will ask their permission before doing something; then silently claim you already obtained that permission in a prior contract, you are committing fraud.

I don't know when our judicial system lost all of its teeth, but you sure as hell can't blame that on the citizens they are failing to defend.

People become susceptible to scams and get-rich-quick schemes because of desperation or sometimes greed. But really it's desperation. The economic circumstances of many people is that they're living paycheck-to-paycheck and/or are drowning under a mountain of debt. They're often also beholden to the whims of landlords. People see no way out.

This is really just the latest iteration of paycheck cashing, 1-800 personal loan lenders and the like.

Sure, Coinbase shouldn't target such people. This requires government intervention (for all the libertarians out there).

Ultimately though we're treating symptoms. The problem is capitalism. The unquenchable desire for ever-great profits leads to extracting every ounce of value from people so Jeff Bezos can have $200 billion instead of $100 billion.

I think that the future of self driving is shuttles.

Small vehicles that use the road to take you on the short journeys, where mass transit is not an option.

The biggest issue with busses, for me is the timetable. Imagine having a truly 24/7 on time transit network? You'd only need a vehicle to haul something, which is not a daily operation.
regardless of the easily quantified economics it's just another sad little papercut on quality of life in general when e.g. my kid can't go out and trivially assemble boxes out of random dumpstered parts, which was how I got into computing in the first place
My dad started using it occasionally years ago when we drove on long car trips. He's never liked coffee, so I think something quick and easy to get a similar type of boost is probably a pretty reasonable offering for a lot of people.

(I also don't like coffee, but I also haven't driven since high school and like likely never will again. It does sometimes feel like a lot of "infrastructure" is set up for the majority of people who do like coffee, though; just the other day, I visited someone in a co-working space that had complementary drinks, but only coffee-related things like lattes and cappuccinos and such that I've never learned the difference between because I don't like any of them. I ended up buying a drink from a nearby vending machine instead)
A lot of the article is about how the New York Times was too negatively obsessed with Trump. The author definitely doesn't like Trump, but a big focus is on the anti-Trump bias.

> If Dropbox wants to house models and offer RAG search themselves, to consenting users, that's one thing.

Well, I'm a paying Dropbox customer, and I would not pay for this feature. I would like it if they encrypted my data in a way that made offering this sort of feature impossible. I do want my data recoverable, but the fact that they can offer this AI "feature" at all, it seems like they've made zero effort to prevent malicious internal employees or third parties from accessing my data.
Yeah and let's also take a moment to consider that the current government here in Canada is not conservative.

I say this in the most non-partisan way possible, just as a freedom loving Canadian: "Fuck Trudeau"
GPT-1 was 5 years ago, GPT-2 was 4 years ago and by that time it was quite clear to some that this will scale soon.

But I'm not talking about the GPT-4 either. Many decades and billions poured into research still didn't give us autonomous driving and there is no clear path how that should happen. So I'm not really holding my breath for anything even more capable.
It’s (still) extremely cumbersome to work out complicated math/physics problems on a computer, be it Maple, Mathematica, Matlab, or something else, so this doesn’t sound so crazy.

Relatedly, you can’t easily comment code willy nilly even with 120 char lines, so paper still has a lot of freedom anyway

Well, not really, what (mass) mRNA trials have shown is that they don't deliver long term immunity, and each time you give someone an mRNA booster the immune reaction gets more severe, until the point at which it might give them serious long term side effects or even, in severe cases, kill them. It doesn't actually make sense in most cases to use mRNA over traditional vaccines--but they have been producing fascinating non-prophylactic immunotherapy treatments with mRNA, where triggering a severe, and specific, immune response would lead to positive results (like with specifically targeted cancer treatments).
Sounds similar to registering a domain name.
There's also the brain drain aspect. All the process engineers and techs that understood all the various "recipes", quirks, etc, of the various machines moved on to other work.

A new crew will eventually work it out, but there's a lot of trial and error getting to the right bake time/temps, spin rpm, etc, etc. Yield and rework suffers while they do that.
Oh wow you should be a copywriter for Coinbase
As an outsider to this space, it seems suspect that all of the people he has a beef with (like LaCun) will gladly cite others and predecessors, but not Schmidhuber.

Has he explained his reasons for thinking there is some conspiracy? Otherwise it reflects badly on his assessment of himself, or possibly his mental state.
Is the piece about how it's financially predatory, or is it about how they're racist? Sticking that in randomly makes it seem like they're just trying to smear the organization however they can.
Neat! Thanks for sharing! Space is crazy :)
As a backend developer, I was finding it difficult to use svelte kit to develop a SPA. Specifically it is hard to know from the docs how to handle authentication. The router is not much exposed. I hoped that 2.0 would add something in this area. nextjs docs have a section on server and client based authentication which is useful.
Well on their way to having a self-driving company!
Screen shots shouldn't replace good text documentation. The Doc should work find without it. But screenshots can help with comprehension. As for letting screenshots become outdated, if you are updating the rest of the doc, why wouldn't you update the screenshots at the same time?
I came here to note the Times' unacknowledged lies about the Bush admin and Iraq War and was pleasantly surprised to see you beat me to it. This piece is nothing less than an interminable but polite screed from someone with an axe to grind and doesn't touch on any of the real problems at the heart of mainstream media.

I'm not sure I've ever encountered a more egregious example of the professional self-flattery you hear all the time from journalists. James Bennet is utterly blind to his real function within these institutions. The piece is at least useful as an unwitting illustration of journalists' ideological belief in their own nobility and importance.
Is this supposed to be a joke? That is among a short list of very bad things you dont want to happen. Yea, the government can help steal your money, they are the pros afterall, maybe they can even provision their own cryptocurrency, its called slavery coin.

The "crypto industry" has plenty of quality products to pick from, they just need to accept that none of them save for bitcoin has security. People will have to learn the hard way.
