> Yes, if typical operations license is valid for 20 years, the typical life span is obviously 20 years

You're moving the goal posts. I merely state the facts as published by manufacturers and those from experience in the field (which show the manufacturer data to be highly optimistic).

> You pointing to the maintenance interval is just bad faith argumenting

It is not me pointing out the maintenance interval but the EPA. Is the EPA acting in bad faith?

> And your claim about the expansion of the lignite usage is another lie. It is on a historical low

Germany is re-opening lignite power plants. Tell us how this rhymes with your claim. Also, please, stop using hyperbolic language like 'argumenting in bad faith' and 'another lie', here we deal in facts not feelings. You are clearly ideologically aligned with those who closed the nuclear power plants but do not let ideology cloud your reasoning. Had 'Die Grune' not insisted on closing those nuclear power plants the lignite plants could have remained closed, the wind farm would not need to make place for a lignite mine and power prices in my part of the world (Sweden) would be markedly lower instead of being pushed up due to the fact that the interconnected grid causes prices to be affected by those on the other side of the border.

Curious as to why some sort of model specifically trained for prompt engineering couldn't be placed before a LLM in a pipeline, or used in a transfer learning scenario.

I'm also curious as to why existing LLMs can't be fine tuned to handle this, if prompt engineering is really a major concern.

Usually, if I don't get the answer I'm looking for from ChatGPT, I tell it it's not the answer I'm looking for, what the original answer was missing, and I usually get a better answer the second time around.

If it goes beyond that I sometimes resort to just cussing at it, and that usually does the trick.
In my opinion, believing that adherence to processes is beneficial is a flawed thing, applicable mainly to highly repetitive and mundane tasks. For example now I am 100% focused on expediting the progress of projects that I start, including AssistOS (blog.assistos.net) initiated this year. Anticipating a period of considerable chaos ahead, my sole process involves a firm belief in the utility of the project. Additionally, I somewhat subscribe to a Kabbalistic approach to life, where the intention of contributing positively to the world invariably brings reciprocal rewards. I am committed to adapting to every emerging opportunity to advance the execution of my projects as effectively as possible. Act quickly on what you believe will benefit both you and others. Don't overthink or aim for perfection. You'll make many mistakes, but that's okay; it's the best way to learn quickly.
> Empathy is not the problem everyone has empathy for their own social groups. The problem is the division between these social groups.

From this I'd say limiting empathy to our social group leaves a hole where the empathy for everyone else should be - and that divisions grow in that hole.

Yeah, treat it like we would murder versus manslaughter based on proof of intent. If you knew the risks and did it anyway, we should treat that like we do someone shooting a gun in populated place.

You’re on the right track. Maybe we can get a bipartisan coalition to push through the death penalty for corporate execs and drug kingpins.
I honestly don't think there is any incentive for large corporation to care too much about things like this and, on the contrary, they are incentivized to do more! The fine they get is basically cost of doing business and since our attention is engineered to be short, the negative PR won't last long enough to have a huge impact. Unless we see a "too big to fail" company actually fail because something like this, we won't see any change in their behvaiour!

I think the exon-mobile report on global warming is one of the most accurate models for predicting global warming, and that was written before this was a big political issue. I think having companies produce the research to hang themself with in the future is unstable though.
Handling constructor failure is one of the least valuable use cases for exceptions. Idioms for exception-free construction are straightforward and some cases will require these idioms even with exceptions.

Resource exhaustion or hardware failures are the more straightforward use cases for exceptions, but doing anything clever in those cases requires writing similar handling code as you would without exceptions.

Yeah, there is. PG has its own warts that Mongo does not have. Also the JSONB query language sucks. See appending an array in PG [0] vs Mongo [1]. Also PG does not provide a way to atomically append to the array, you have to lock the row via SELECT ... FOR UPDATE. Mongo's $push, $set, etc, are atomic.

Sure, and that in itself is an interesting observation, but they’re obviously speaking to the entirety of the graph. I’m not the author and I think the correlation is relatively weak, I’m just trying to explain what they were going for.
The explanation describing each step from alphabetical ordering to QWERTY is the best I’ve seen, although I don’t know how true it is. The parts of the story I knew about do check out.
That's not strictly true, particularly with flakes. You can easily pin multiple versions of nixpkgs as a flake input. Also it is possible to override the version of a specific derivation
I’ve found drivers way way more rude now. Jumping red lights is epidemic. Drivers regularly wait on crossings.

On the other hand, once your embedded system is sufficiently large, people will want to use (and inevitably will use at some point) standard containers such as std::string or std::vector. And without exceptions, all of those might invoke UB at any time (I have yet to see a standard library that understands and honors -fno-exceptions; usually they just drop all try-catch blocks and all throws)

Looks like the split was around 2016? Which could make sense given the state of crypto at the time. One problem that hit nvidia more than AMD is consumer cards getting vacuumed up by crypto farms. AMD making a conscious split effectively isolated their compute cards from their gamer cards.

That being said, I can't imagine this is something that's been good for adoption of AMD cards for compute tasks. The wonderful thing about CUDA is you don't need a special accelerator card to develop cuda code.
I don't think anyone says it can't. Isn't that basically what ChatGPT does to interact with DALL-E?

You make some good points. What I was trying to say is that even though there is the RFC, it's quite common to modify the alphabet or use other variants like Crockford's (mainly to avoid random profanity, e.g. in the URL identifiers).

When you see a Base64 string, you can be pretty certain that it's the standard version. With Base32, it's not obvious which variant was used.

Many languages don't provide a stdlib Base32 implementation (Ruby doesn't), but Base64 is pretty much always included. Maybe this influenced my perception of the lack of a universal standard.

Anyway, I should work on that section to communicate my point better.

Temp jobs are necessary at times but also can be a trap that covers you like a warm blanket blinding you from what your value is in the marketplace. Taking the first offer because the interview process is horrible is the easy route many of us take. Passing up lower valued offers probably means you are misreading the market or applying in the wrong market.
Every political system clouds the reason and appeals to emotion. There are very few policies anywhere that are grounded in science. They may be, initially, until they get massacred by politicians to get them aligned with currently dominant ideology (which by definition is a belief system, grounded mostly in fairy tales about who's better than everyone else).

Just take a look at the current state of democracy... and let me know where the science is hiding.
I use CURIO but use YEAST instead of SALET to cover all vowels+y, and YEAST is much more likely (IMO) to pop up as a chance instawin, since I have no idea what SALET means.
The classic GSG prohibition on exceptions has more to do with a lack of exception safety in their legacy code base than anything else. Promptly-crash-on-failure can be achieved by adopting a "don't catch exceptions" style, with significant advantages of not throwing away much of the strengths of RAII or needing the evil hack that is two-phase initialization.
Not the way to do this.

For me, it's about ensuring some kind of deterrence. Life in prison without the possibility for parole can be too soft when the crime is the intentional negligence leading to the deaths of thousands, if the punishment is life in a low security prison with access to TV/internet. If you have the connections to ensure you end up in a nice little apartment in Club Fed, you might not think as hard about the consequences as if the punishment was potentially death.

I'm also somewhat skeptical on the idea that the death penalty _should_ cost more than life in prison (assuming that sentence carries at least 20 years for the remainder of that person's life.) It would seem to me that there is a fairly obvious problem there that needs to get worked out if it's actually true (has anyone looked closely at the studies that assert this claim? Obviously there's additional time in court, but it would seem preposterous that this would necessarily lead to an increase such that paying for someone's housing and supervision for 20+ years is cheaper than additional court time.) Obviously there are other factors like how the government allows itself to get overcharged by the company that manufactures the lethal injection for some strange reason (is it actually all that strange to anyone?) And then what is the actual reason for all the time prisoners spend on death row, this would seem to just be the state shooting itself in the foot on statistics for the costs for capital punishment?

Anyway, I'm generally for the death penalty in matters where there is a clear connection between one entity and an intentional large-scale loss of human life. Proving the intention and the connection are the hard parts, for sure. But the clear benefit to the death penalty is that it's a permanent act that would-be criminals would naturally try to avoid, potentially avoiding them becoming criminals at all. If you have a study that somehow refutes this theory, that would-be criminals, especially white collar criminals similar to officials at 3M here, don't consider punishments as a deterrence at all, I might revise my opinion.

It looks ok for AMD. Trust me a 30% speed advantage is not enough to move the market at all. It's way way easier to tweak your CUDA model to get a 30% speed up than to rewrite it.

There recently was a finding about power lines that also kill numerous birds. What I'd those are attributes to cats?
Unfortunately, no me neither. I think this issue extends beyond cats, it's the uncontrolled breeding of animals, which imo leads to all sorts of abuse.

I find it amazing that anyone can decide I'm going to buy a breeding pair of cats with the end goal of making money.

We need to phase out cats and dogs completely. This saddens me deeply because I love my dog but the damage these animals do to the environment is so large I don't think I can truly fathom.

We can do this slowly, first pets needs to be desexed. For cats there's no exception. For dogs the exception would be breeding working dogs, or therapy/guide dogs. With cats they must be kept in doors at all times. These laws should extend to larger animals like horses.

In Australia we have a huge problem with horses and camels. But the public do not support culls of horses, even if it's for their own benefit (eg to stop them from starving in winter). But the horse racing industry is huge here, they've got clout and political pressure.

Uncontrolled breeding of animals for human enjoyment is amoral. Animal companionship is of course the exception but this comes with issues.
Romanticism of 19th century can be thought of as rationality winning over less rational religion. The 'God is dead' sort of thinking. Yet in the midst of all of this rationality and scientific progress we end up with 2 world wars?
I don't know what the solution is but I doubt you will find the answer in articles and youtube videos. Everyone is different and it's very easy to fall into the "tutorial trap": thinking you're working towards a goal because you're consuming content about it. You won't learn to play the guitar by watching videos.

I'd say, focus on identifying your own problem and find specific solutions that work for you.

You've mentioned perfectionism which I also struggled with but I've learned to manage. What worked for me is:

1) Learning to deal with my inner critic. Google a technique called "morning pages". Basically you have to learn how to act while ignoring your inner critic and trusting your gut.

2) Learning to accept that perfection doesn't exist and try to learn a bit more in every experience. I simply do the best I can given the resources I have at the time and move on. Finishing something is better than not doing anything at all. A wrong decision is better than no decision.

This reeks a bit of misplaced entitlement. Proton, as any company, has limited resources, and they focus it where it counts for their business.

This means that for almost anything, be it gaming, office suites or video editors, we are a minority. And we have to live with less attention. It's just how it is.

Sure we can make requests and provide feedback, but we have no rights. If you ask me we don't even have the right to responds with slight annoyance.

We may just hope that even though we are a minority, perhaps companies may recognize the following things in us:

- they do earn enough directly of off us to justify support

- they trust that us techies take the tech we use at home to work

- We are superior bug finders and reporters and may earn our support that way

We are not entitled to anything though, and companies must also realize that in the end we too will vote with our wallets.

The point of the criminal justice system is to create strong social norms and taboos. Not deterrence—not to create the fear of getting caught—but rather that internal feeling that compels people to avoid wrongdoing because they don’t want to be seen as “bad people.”

Even low level criminals mentally distinguish themselves from the “really bad people.” In prison, the people who hurt children are reviled by the other criminals. When we impose the death penalty for certain conduct, we create a powerful social norm. The point is to help the majority of people who aren’t evil, but are flawed and fallible, stay on the right side of the line.
Seems like someone trying to be too clever to me, and perhaps a case of premature optimization. Non-owning references are a problem waiting to happen. Even if your language/api allows you to check if the reference is still valid before use, you can obviously forget to do so.

Rather than use a non-owning reference I'd rather use a design that didn't need it, or just use a std::shared_ptr owning reference instead. I realize there are potential cases (i.e. one can choose to design such cases) of circular references where a non-owning reference might be needed to break the circular chain, or where one wants a non-owning view of a data structure, but without very careful API design and code review these are easy to mess up.
I found this resource [0] handy for getting a grasp on all the different terms people use (zero/one-shot, tree of thoughts, RAG, etc). It's not super detailed, which is actually a good thing for an introduction—it just gives a high-level introduction to each technique before linking to papers and other resources for more in-depth research if the technique seems likely to help. It was enough for me (a professional developer) to get started on some side projects with Mistral.

I don't personally know.

I've been curious if DALL-E has been truly been mixed in w/ ChatGPT as a single model using a Mixture of Experts (MoE)- type learning gate to train them all together.
Personally I find that the strategy of “I’ll buy this expensive cool gadget first and then I’ll surely be motivated to learn how to use it”… just never works.

It seems to turn into the opposite: as the expensive gadget sits unused, its physical presence creates a guilt association that makes it increasingly unlikely that I’d pick it up again because I don’t want to face the unappealing remorse.

Learning works out much better for me when it’s a thing I can do in a corner of a hard drive or notebook or whatever, almost pretending it’s not there.
What would you suggest instead? How would you replace pull requests, or even sending patches via email to mailing lists?
> Ooooh, is that why the consumer cards don't do compute?

No, not really. Sure, the consumer cards are based on a less suitable architecture, so they won't be as good, but it's not like it's not a general purpose GPU architecture anymore.

The real problem is that ROCm has made the very weird technical decision of shipping GPU machine code, rather than bytecode. Nvidia has their own bytecode NVPTX, and Intel just uses SPIR-V for oneAPI.

This means that ROCm support for a GPU architecture requires shipping binaries of all the libraries (such as rocBLAS, rocDNN, rocsparse, rocFFT) for all architectures.

As the cherry on top, on paper one GPU family consists of different architectures!
The RX 6700 XT identifies as a different 'architecture' (gfx1031) than the RX 6800 XT (gfx1030). These are 'close enough' that you can tell ROCm to use gfx1030 binaries on gfx1031 and it'll usually just work, but still.

I feel like this is a large part of the reason AMD is so bad about supporting older GPUs in ROCm. It'd cost a bit of effort, sure, but I feel like the enormous packages you'd get are a bigger issue. (This is another factor that kills hobbyist ROCm, because anyone with a Pascal+ GPU can do CUDA, but ROCm support is usually limited to newer and higher end cards.)
