No more new year's resolutions What did you accomplish this year, but unplanned?
I went through some rough couple of months and had talks with friends about the past, the present and the future.

I used to try and plan my future ahead up to the day I'm laying in bed and saying goodbye to my children. Every day made me nervous.

Well, nothing really went as I planned, but every turn in my life was worth it. That's just how life works, I guess. And that's good.

I had the best moments with my daughter in a holiday I never planned, I "accidentally" run my second marathon while doing a long run, I got the fittest in my life, and so on...

So, no matter if it's IT, gardening, or whatever... what were your unplanned accomplishments?
This should absolutely be possible! The hard part is making it look natural: NeRF models (including SMERF) have no explicit materials or lighting. That means that any character inserted into the game will look out of place.
>but in the end, it still wouldn't have mattered if I couldn't figure out how to acquire users

In EU there are many price comparison engines with millions or billions of products. I don't know how popular they are. Some monetize trough ads, some have partnership with stores and you can buy directly from the search results.

I generally search first on the local Amazon equivalent, if I don't like what I see, I search on a smaller store. If I still can't find or dislike the products or prices I search Google. If I am still not contended with the results, I will go search on comparison engines.

And I also have a browser extension called Pricy who polls the comparison engines, so once I land in a product page I know which store has the better price and what was the price history through last year.

Probably many people have similar patterns. I expect people in US to search Amazon first, if it's not a very niche product they are after.

I think you can have a better monetization proposal, if instead of just search you build a sales platform, so people can directly buy after searching, without hoping to various websites.
I'm skeptical of the story. Husband wears asbestos ridden clothes all day, maybe wears PPE and what not, but we've tied it the cancer the wife has because of her exposure to the clothes while handling them in the wash?

Even if the husband took off his clothes, separately bagged them and then handed them to his wife to clean, it's hard to see how his exposure is less to the point where only she was diagnosed.
If you consider how a mature search product works, that's probably going to give you an improvement over a single embedding method. You'll find that these systems are really an amalgamation of indexes, queries, and rankings. Often an item will have more data and linkage attached to it than just the embedding of the content. They will also perform multiple different queries at the same time and then combine and rank results. If you want Google search response times, you'll go a step further and perform multiple instances of each query so you get your result faster from the first to return.

That being said, people are finding the basic steps you showed above sufficient. There are parameters you can change in these 3 steps. Have you tried changing any of those?

- how you chunk, chunk size and rules
- how you embed, which model and size
- how you query, the metric(s) used

2 is probably only important to quality of results in that it determines what is available for you to use in the other steps, notably the embedding comparison metric that really defines relevance
Nvidia drivers work just fine on Linux... unless you are clueless at following instructions
I've learned that for now GPT spits out a lot of junk and downright doesn't know much about very technical problems(i.e. semiconductor patterning)

However, for people like me that learn programming by bruteforce, it's fantastic to get a bunch of rust code and then having to figure out how to turn it into functioning code. It's not that it's teaching by itself, but it helps getting a lot of pointers that would have taken a lot of time to wait for mailing list and github issue responses.
powershell doesn't expose everything by default, there are insane numbers of modules that are community created though.
> What makes you think that logged out users aren't adding any value?

I'm curious because I'm not sure of the answer myself: what value do you think anonymous users provide to them?

I suspect gating it behind a login is a simple way to rate limit, and prevent abuse with a cheap and effective way to mitigate false positives. As someone who's had to make similar decisions in the past (albeit smaller scale), I can sympathise with them turning off a computationally expensive feature that's not at the core of their product, but just an add-on.
Sure. I've used home computers since 1979. The graphics were instantaneous back then even on a few MHz and 16 kBytes of RAM.

We don't want slow and laggy UIs because the software is bloated.

But I responded to this part:

> The real issue is that the infotainment systems are underpowered

And my point was that it is far harder than it seems to put more powerful CPUs in cars.
Gotcha. Yeah, you get a notification from which you can swap mode. Default being charging only, for security reasons.

Also, android encrypts the filesystem by default these days I believe. So unpowered fs access is a no go without a lot of work for a very niche use case.

Security doesn't really matter on a somewhat dumb e-reader though, so seems like sensible defaults for the respective devices tbh.
>otherwise you risk your site being littered with kitchy t-shirts or drop-shipping garbage.

You mean like Amazon?
In that case why not use JWTs which do this for you? In your case you end up building a subset of JWTs yourself.
I think you can load microcode after boot, it's just more likely to have weird effects, especially with older processors.

For VMs running in GCP, they do migrate VMs across machines from time to time, and you could handwave a process where they take a machkne, update the hypervisor image with new microcode, migrate all VMs off the machine, then make it available to receive VM migrations. Migrating a VM is disruptive, although the disruption is brief.
Yes, I hope so! But it'll take at least a few months of work. We have some tight dependencies to not-yet-open-sourced code, and until that's released, any code we put out will be dead on arrival.

In the meantime, feel free to explore the live viewer code!

This comparison is not fair, since the VRAM in the RTX4090 is not enough to hold the whole model in VRAM.

I have tested llama.cpp both on an M2 and in a 4090:

- The prompt ingestion time in M2 is pretty slow.
- The extra memory of the M2 allows one to try more interesting models (Mixtral) and run multiple models at the same time.
What do you mean by "critical"? Do you mean stuff that everyone will have to do, like changing mouse speed? Installing programs? The more obscure stuff, like Event Viewer? The really obscure changes that currently need registry hacks (the "I know my setup is weird but it works for me" stuff)?

Different demographics will probably need different solutions. The important thing isn't what solutions they come up with, it's that they choose a system and stick with it. To me it's understandable that Event Viewer isn't part of the main Settings app (plenty of IT folks would be upset if anything about Event Viewer changed). But Mouse Acceleration options really should be.
I'd be happy to see Edit come back, but honestly I think MS wants people doing as little commandline as possible.

In fact, there newest tactic is to hide configuration changes they don't want users to mess with in commandline only powershell options that are typically poorly documented, and have odd syntax.

maybe isn't malicious, but it feels like it.

Use sourcegraph to search instead. It doesn't even require you to be logged in.

My kitchen has engineered stone, and the people who came to fit it took precautions - all cutting was done outside (it was raining, but they had a marquee that went up), heavy duty vacuums to suck up any dust, wet cutting and wearing the proper PPE.

There are already laws and regulations about employers having to provide the proper PPE - why not enforce that strongly instead of just outright banning a particular item?
Nice how 1 hour turned into 70 minutes.

From personal experience:
Learning and understanding the fundamentals via courses and personal projects/implementation is different from keeping up to date with blogs, newsletters etc.
I suggest dedicating the full hour to 1 thing, but alternating between courses (i.e coursera), reading (i.e the batch) and building/coding.
If you were emperor of Google Security what would you have them do differently?
Maybe start with FastAI course? Then from there go deeper into what interests you?
MI250 (which is two GPUs) has 128 GB and H100 NVL (also two GPUs) has 188 GB at 7.8 TB/s. Both are probably an order of magnitude more expensive than a 4090 so they're not really in the same class.
Then the problem seem to be the lack of users.

Have you tried having an YouTube channel, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, blog and explain daily how you built the website, how your platform is going to help users?
I've seen subsidy numbers of $200k. I'm pretty sure a million is possible.
After all the times I saw office politics make the product much worse for our users, I see that as a good thing.

That's the weird thing. They seem to have the best hardware for the price, for individuals to develop and use local LLMs, but so far they have been pretty quiet on all this.
Was going to ask if the current implementation could be used together with libmill, but maybe they overlap a lot in functionality?
ROCM support for windows is also just a few months old.

>It's difficult to argue that he couldn't have seen this coming.

around the same time the FBI raided him. I imagine he was quite busy as is.

And there's a difference between "he should have seen this coming" and "he should have seen his data being deleted coming a week after the grace period with no wrning until the week before."
And then comes the rails/whathaveyou tutorial for authentication permitting a reasonable min 5 char password and max 256 char username limit example.
Is this really within the TOS of Shopify?
Most people are lazy. But also an hour a day is only so much for learning a skill.
I don't understand how an increase in the tip percentage is justified. The base price is already experiencing inflation, why should the tip percentage on top of that also inflate?
They'd just cease producing the pills in 18 months.
It’s been great for k8s
sounds like they need to tell people the limits or stop false advertising.
The moat is you'll be at a level higher than the person who doesn't put in an hour a day.

Also, if it puts you at a few levels higher, and you keep learning more, combined with an already strong knowledge base... eventually combined experiences lead to something quite valuable and useful.
> Have you ever been to Germany? one of the safest countries in the world, never had any issue with safety there.

Have you ever been around German 20 story apartment complexes? I have and I can tell you it's not pretty.

> Usually you find variety of size, between 1 and 4 bedrooms the most common.

3 bedroom apartments in German high-rise complexes are a rarity. I never heard of 4 bedroom apartments except for the very rare penthouse or designer building. The standard here is definitely 2 bedrooms with 3 being a luxury.
You're speedrunning repeating every mistake Sun made with JVM sandboxing, congratulations.
Requires tons of sanding, similar issue as cutting the stone.
Engineered stone (what is being banned) doesn't stain either.
I like the Inspector Chen Cao novels, too; they're crime novels that usually involve corruption in the Chinese Communist Party https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/126606.Death_of_a_Red_He...

The author Qiu Xiaolong lives in exile in the US.
That’s not how recalls usually work anyways. The cars aren’t pulled off the road. You usually get a letter or email then schedule a service. Happened with my Outback a few years ago… some battery drain thing. I took it in a few months after getting the email.
I watched it without audio and paying attention mostly to the scene changes - but in general yes.
They do multiple corporate embezzlement cases per year. Maybe multiple per month.
Because with big enough project you have 2 ways:

You update dependencies as a full time job and it bites you because something breaks big way. But most likely you have some help to fix it and as you are on top you might need to put work to fix it but yeah still full time job.

You neglect updating dependencies and it bites you and you don’t even expect it just because you have to update something you did not expect will need it and you are now scrambling to do anything because you are messed up.

Besides I like writing my own code more than dealing with some lib shenanigans.
It is cheaper to look up at the handful of recovered tokens than however many active sessions you have, assuming you have a substantial number of them, otherwise, it is a moot point, similar to microservices for websites with 3-4 digits traffic per hour.
Escape Velocity - one of my all-time favorites.
It's amazing what programmers were able to do back in those days without all the modern programming tools and languages and frameworks we have now. They didn't even have version control!

Yet they managed to crank out code much faster, and with far fewer bugs, than today's programmers can seem to manage, and higher performing too for anything that didn't require heavy computation (these days, there's noticeable lag, sometimes up to 1s, between typing characters and seeing them on the screen; this never happened in the 80s).
this is awesome. i think it'd be super cool if it can read/summarize the comments too
You have no idea how this works. Denied money isn't redistributed.

Where do people get this from?

Maybe there will be a future award. But there's no rollover here.
So it's like the new react
>Mongo will run me about $1,500 / month at the current CPU level. AWS all in will be about $700. I'm currently not storing the image files, so that reduces the cost as well.

It will probably cost you just $100 to rent a server from Hetzner and do the same thing. I would also use Redis or another kind of cache to hit the DB less.
What confuses me about black holes is that they appear to break time symmetry. Most equations in physics can be run forwards or backwards and the equations work the same. But if you imagine taking an object just after crossing the event horizon of a black hole, and then you were to flip the sign of its velocity vector so it was going backwards the way it came, you might expect the math to predict it to fly back out of the black hole. But, this can’t be right if nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole. Running the simulation backwards must not retrace the path it took when it went in. Doesn’t that break time symmetry?
The denial mentions national speed levels from a third party not the particular coverage areas or services delivered under RDOF
It's not just contested, but contradicted by reality. Many games on steam can be purchased from retailers who receive keys directly from the publishwr (e.g. Green Man Gaming), at a substantial discount. Sometimes that discount price is much closer to the after steam cut amount the publisher would otherwise receive.

The rumor, for many years, was that you could sell a game separately and if it didn't use steam keys and steam services Valve did not care. If you wanted to sell steam copies, there seemed to be two conditions.
1. Keys sold off of steam must make up less than some percentage of on-steam sales.
2. If you have a sale on another storefront, there must be a matching sale on Steam in some time window.

It is entirely possible that valves notoriously bad communication abilities resulted in a company believing a total ban on discounts was policy, but the fact that other publishers seemingly are not and were not held to that standard for many years is certainly odd.
the studies cited in other parts of this thread found granite dust to be more damaging to lungs, not less so
Why not manticore as backend? Much better perf than ES, less memory intense, sql syntax. Just fantastic all round!!
Interesting to see

"Portable - Biscuit is implemented in Rust, Haskell, Go, Java, WebAssembly, C..."

but nothing about Javascript, NodeJS and Python, which seem very common these days.
thanks for digging up these links

interestingly it does say bk used md5 in some way; i'm not sure how i overlooked that when i was looking at the code earlier, but indeed md5 is used in lots of places (though apparently not for naming objects the way git and monotone do)

the crucial way bittorrent uses hashes actually is for identifying chunks of files (a .torrent file is mostly chunk hashes by volume); that's why it was immune to the poisoning attacks used against other p2p systems in the early 02000s where malicious entities would send you bogus data. once you had the correct .torrent file, you could tell good data from bad data. using the infohash talking to the tracker is convenient but, as i understand it, there isn't really a security reason for it; the tracker doesn't verify you're really participating productively in the swarm, it just sends your IP to other peers in case you might. so there isn't a strong reason to keep torrent infohashes from colliding
Gwen Shotsell, Tom Mueller, Hans Koenigsmann to name a few. But someone still had to hire this crew.
I think you need context. Google stopped offering unlimted storage, the journalists was raided by the FBI some 7 months ago, and during that legal dispute he was occupied until Google gave a 7 day ultimatim.

He already did have data backed up, and it was seized by the government because Fox News or Kayne West really didn't want that news page (live on a URL already) "leaked" or whatever.
The Quest app lets you record mixed reality and there are a decent number of videos of people ordering coffee or baking or whatever in that mode. It turns out that the quality is generally much higher from those recordings than it looks live through the lens.

DEI in itself is a corrupt scheme to begin with. The related fields in academia work only towards justifying their own existence, their salaries and positions, by finding proof for their beliefs. Their activism and claims like the one that „diverse teams perform better“ then allow them to move their peers holding useless degrees into made up positions of power in business.
Perhaps I misinterpreted your original post, but I do think there's a difference between not intellectually 'getting' that a computer isn't thinking in the same way a human is thinking, and this anthropomorphizing that we do to all sorts of things. I'll try to be clearer:

Obviously making an object mimick human traits makes it a lot easier to anthropomorphize. Like if you put a little cowboy hat on a pear. But you wouldn't say that somebody doesn't "understand that fruits aren't human" if they assign human traits to them. Making a machine that talks back at us in a seemingly intelligent way is a much more intensely human trait for it to have. It's not down to our intellectual understanding of the thing, but how our brains decode our (social) world.

So the anthropomorphizing happens regardless of the level of technical understanding. We both know it's just a pear, but it's also a cowboy now.

Of course there's a level of playfulness involved with all of this too. It's kinda fun to backsass your GPS instructions, or tell Alexa she's being nosy, or ask your dog what he thinks of the presidential debate. But that's not the same as foolishly overestimating the political acumen of the dog, or the nature of Alexa's intelligence.
Why are you so sure I'll lose?
Great work. Can you tell us about how you built it? Is it open source?

I think the point is Google could have communicated more clearly, and we shouldn't understate that. You don't give a business (since this was an enterprise account) a week to take action. That's unacceptable. A large business may need a week just to get the paperwork ready for the employee to start the migration.

This is a common problem and it has screwed over many other people. we can't just leave livlihoods to the whimsy of automated bots without some human to contact.
I think of Threads as a red team the Fediverse doesn't have to pay for.
Can you animate it to scroll up and down on loop? It’s a nice visual experience.
Here’s another wacky thing about black holes. It must be possible for one black hole to contain another. Imagine for example a tremendous supermassive black with a small stellar mass one falling into it. If the small one is free falling into the big one, then a few moments after crossing the event horizon it must still be in an inertial reference frame. So, one black hole can contain another. Perhaps, black holes contain a fractal where each black hole actually has many other smaller ones inside, and those have smaller ones in turn.
You nailed it. People don't necessarily hate capitalism, companies or business owners. However, this late stage capitalism with huge faceless companies that are unable to care for people, seem to be above the law and are just profit-extraction machines is quite a trip.
Well as long as you’re large industry player you’re on the same starting line.
At least we can all safely agree that naming things is hard.
I doubt Cyberpunk uses more than a special shader for the BD sequences, but what’s a lot more remarkable to me is how similar the idea is at heart. Maybe we’re actually going to see this (maybe sans the brain-implant to record them, but hey) after all. Amazing technology, that’s for sure.
>I have always used standard python tools like selenium, bs4 and the like

There's nothing to scrap. You just download a JSON, the site owners kindly put on your disposal.

Scraping is a more complex process, where you have to work around rate limiting and captchas. For the tool I built I wrote tens of thousands of lines of code and I still find daily issues I have to deal with if I want to scrap a particular web page, issues I don't always have the time to solve.
Does it matter? Or you can't do anything not explicitly allowed by law?

Shopify is the company spotted in so many shenanigans, so anything that undermines it's business I would personally welcome very well.
