Electrons are fields, not points. You can compress it to arbitrarily small spaces, but that doesn't make it a point.
These are LoRAs being used normally, and the level of modification is controlled by varying LoRA strength.

The main difference is in the training procedure, where they try to only target specific attributes while leaving others unchanged.

You could probably use this to create LoRAs for a specific pose, but if you want to try out many different poses and freely adjust them, the more flexible controlnet approach is likely to be more comfortable.

I'm confused. Teslas (and most cars in the last decade) have a rear view mirror and reverse camera.

Tesla also have an indicator stalk ("turn signal"), and their gear shift is also on a stalk, as it was in most 50s and 60s cars.

Is there a specific Tesla type or concept vehicle you're referencing here? Because none of the ones I've been in reflect what you're saying.

OP did not state that getting an ML job was a goal.

I for one would be interested in learning more foundational stuff; I have no interest (though perhaps that process would change this!) in a particularly ML job, and certainly not in learning how to point and click and run other people's work from a YouTube video with a scream-face thumbnail.

Well, the abbreviation expands to Low Rank Adaptation, but the article is about diffusion models, not LLMs, and LoRA is an model-modifier approach that applies to many classes of models, not just Large Languag Models.
Until a couple centuries ago there were wars economically beneficial for an aggressor. In the modern world cooperation if more beneficial and this is what most democratic countries choose. A dictator can start a war even knowing that it would have a huge cost because he personally would not suffer from this.
I have a 10850k cpu, with a HUGE Be Quiet heatsink. Any heavy CPU workload will draw 300+watt, without any overclocking, the cpu will downclock, but not throttle around 100 Celsius. Overclocking has never been more dead than it is today. The days with old Celeron 300 or Core 2 Duo days with 50% + overclock speed are long gone. Today you will most like hit max temperature and cpu throttling.

Because saying the actual figure of 99% will make too many people dismiss the statement as hyperbole /s ...

In all seriousness, we're talking about psychology/psychotherapy here, not psychiatry.

The majority of trials in psychology is characterised by the phrase "non-repeatable", and all the practicing therapies boil down to "this makes a nice narrative".

Using people's self-reported feelings of mental health as an indicator of the efficacy of psychotherapy is no different from asking religious people if prayer helps them and using the answers as proof of the existence of god.

If therapy makes a difference regardless of whether or not the subject believes it does and we can measure that difference then, sure, that's evidence. Until then all we have is "evidence".

Yes, that's a good suggestion. I've just pushed a change to my utility to provide the paste buffer along with the question. This does mean you need to select the lines first but will work with your exact question now. It's actually useful to quickly provide more data when asking a question where I would have needed to think more about how to phrase the question previously. Btw it automatically puts the output into the paste buffer so there is no need to manually copy the result before pasting.

Of course, full integration with the terminal would be good!

Well, no. Fi is not unlimited. This is how it works.

My cell network (not Fi) has crazy fast internet (I'd throttle it if I could, t avoid overusing it).

If I go over some amount, it goes to 3G speeds (probably 200kbps or similar).

If I were to run at 3G speeds -- continuously, peak speed -- for a month, I couldn't e.g. hit a terabit of data. Ergo, there is a cap, and it's short of 100GB. You cannot get to 100GB be because of the throttle.

I think this is very good behavior, but it is capped.
That's fine. But it's not meant to be self driving, and it isn't a paid extra. You still need to be attentive, you just get to stop "operating" for a while.

The initial sentence "the feds punishing Musk for not participating in their well documented censorship operations" states that Musk isn't participating in censoring other people. The sentence you quoted states that Musk "voices his own political and ideological views without a filter", which doesn't have anything to do with Musk censoring other people.

While both talk about censorship, one talks about "the feds censoring people", and the other talks about "Musk censoring himself". These are completely different things.
WTF happened? NASDAQ maybe...
As it happens, I am indeed Christian. But I see the soul as the software that runs on the hardware of our brain (although those aren't as neatly separated in our brain as they are in computers), and I suspect that it should be possible to simulate it in theory. I just think we're nowhere near that. We still don't agree on what the many aspects of intelligence are and how they work together to form the human mind. And then there's consciousness; we have no clue what it is. Maybe it's emergent? Maybe it's illusion? Or is it something real? I don't think we'll be able to create a truly human-like intelligence until we figure that one out.

Although we're certainly making a lot of progress on other aspects of intelligence.

And then there's all the talk of a singularity in innovation or progress that to me betrays a lack of understanding of what the word singularity means, and a lack of understanding of the limits of knowledge and progress.
OKRs can in theory make sense but they create a new kind of tension. Because they compete with the BAU work, the niggly things that come up mid quarter that you need to get done. Individuals need to resolve the dilemma, do what has to be done, or do what makes me look good.

I think a new thing is needed at least for smaller teams. Something like adaptive goals. Roadmap a year, vaguely and plan the next 6 weeks. Measure stuff where it makes sense but not everything needs a measure (or things that don’t might be 0 or 1). Plan based on velocity that takes into account that you wont have planned everything.

Measures are useful but also bullshit. There is no correlation between the measure and business success without intelligence. Even revenue is not a measure of success (I could sell half price bitcoins and have a lot of revenue!)

It may be difficult to find settlements older than 16,000 years ago, because sea levels were lower then, so their coastal settlements would now be underwater. Perhaps completely obliterated... or perhaps there is a coming age of discovery of their remnants?

Kyivstar posted last night:

"Our technicians have begun restoring voice service for all of Ukraine as of 6 pm, 13/12/2023 after a cyberattack, unprecedented for global telecommunications.

Services are being restored gradually and disruptions in service are still possible today. We recommend restarting your phone and turning off VoLTE - you can do this in settings.

At the moment, we are restoring cellular data and SMS. We hope that these services will also start working over the course of the day.

After fully stabilizing our network, we will be sure to compensate all subscribers and corporate clients who were without service and were unable to use our services.

We thank you for your support and continue to work 24/7 to keep Ukraine connected." (1)

Ukraine is better connected than the US and from my observations relies more on cellular; credit card terminals are usually wireless (2). At most restaurants, the waiter brings a portable credit card terminal (usually on Kyivstar's network) if you pay with card.

There are no limits to what AI can achieve, other than the limits of math and physics. There are no computational problems that it cannot solve, because the only limiting factor is clever algorithms, and AI will soon surpass humans at devising those.

So, I agree. It (probably) won't make a perpetual motion machine. But I predict it will do everything that we ask it to, and more. That is why I was so desperate to include a message of peace in the draft; we must be wise in what we ask of the new race of genies that we must coexist with.
The point is, how can you tell if a being is conciousness. We can start with the idea that we think these models aren't (I think they aren't!) A lot of your arguments seem to be based in asking questions of the being, whether it can experience things. But seeing as we can't read minds, we can't tell whether it actually believes or experiences what it is saying. So we have (had) to trust that a creature capable of explaining such things is concious. Now we can't do that, hence the dividing line that we feel must exist now moves into some unobservable territory. I'm not commenting on whether such a line exists, just that it's kinda hard to test right now, so any argument about it has to go into hypotheticals and philosophy

That is the point. Cuda is widely used in particular for training as opposed to tuning and is just flat out not available. So you buy your nice $6000 machine and it just does not work for its intended purpose.

Let’s be fair, nobody here likely knows what slavery is first-hand. And even if 0.01% knows, so what? It’s an important debate. We’re talking about building robots with human-level intelligence. It’s worth discussing whether they’re going to be slaves.
Worshipping the Cult of Refresh Button in Azure
In Azure portal, the need to search and frequently click Refresh buttons can indeed be a bit cumbersome, especially when you're monitoring resources or waiting for changes to take effect. You just worship the cult of Refresh button. There is now a Safari and Chrome Extension to do that for you: to automatically refresh Azure portal data (not the page)! It is practical, fun and smart solution to avoid manual refreshes. Click them every 10 seconds when there are no mouse or keyboard activity on the page. Or until there will be a Refresh button on Azure portal ;)
That's a pretty nice interpretation!
I think it's the revelation that a shared culture and experience whose existence you took for granted really never existed. You feel untethered.

I live in Northern Ireland and I get this feeling when I come upon a street festooned in Union Flags and painted kerbstones. It's like stepping into a different country.
> the cpu will downclock, but not throttle around 100 Celsius.

Downclocking is literally throttling. But there's like another 10% performance that can be unlocked if you'd go full custom watercooling.

> Yet they managed to crank out code much faster, and with far fewer bugs, than today's programmers can seem to manage

The reality is that today's programmers, especially in the big corporations, spend a lot of time not doing programming. It isn't too uncommon that something that takes a half decent programmer a couple of days to bang out is preceded by several weeks of running around trying to get approvals and clarifications on different levels.

I guess earlier more trust (and responsibility) was given to the individual developers to decide what to do and how to do it, kind of like in smaller companies nowadays, and with the correct developers that enables a much more productive environment with little to no overhead.

That's such a privileged and insensitive thing to say imo. The careers of all these people are at risk, and no, this is no industrial revolution, there is no replacement for those people unless they decide to become LLM researchers/devs and join the LLM train.

I wonder if you said the same thing if your job got made redundant because it's not needed anymore and you need to spend +5 years retraining without having the funds or economical support to do so.
They will surely try that explanation too if the others fail. Currently their stance seems to be "there is no such code on the trains, and if there is, it's not from us".

The difference is that most projects are of reasonable scope so that an individual or small team can take over maintenance completely if needed.

Web browsers on the other hand have become so complex that is no longer possible without an enourmous amout of resources so you really are dependent on big G to keep feeding you updates. This complexity is at least part due to the ever increasing number of standards and expanding scope that Google themselves are pushing for.
