My theory is that they're using a fine-tuned version of GPT-4-turbo in ChatGPT to fix the issue with everyone saying it was lazy. They fine-tuned it using responses from GPT-4.5-turbo, which they have internally. This synthetic data was probably based on a suite of questions which included self-identification, leading to it releasing its model name in the training data, and the new ChatGPT less lazy model is adopting the name via osmotic data leakage.
Well then what's their point of existence apart from taking (rather large) bunch of tax money? To point out how much they didn't do every year?
Seeing incremental gains like negative prompting, but then all of a sudden theres huge progress like latent consistency models, stable diffusion turbo/dalle etc.

Pretty exciting time, i think UX having a big moment too :)

I am a C (not C++ hobbyist), and I try to read up on standards and style guides to understand what I should be trying to do. Given that Misra has a C:2012, does anyone know how this compares to SEI Cert C Coding Standard (which im reading right now along with Secure Coding in C and C++)?
I wonder how many of these are made up stories to get some free marketing. All the world tour about "oh so dangerous AI" was purely marketing as anyone even remotely associated with AI would know.

Depends on how you define success. We can say "fascism didn't succeed" but it certainly didn't blow over as a trend. Not back then, and not now.
SPIR-V for OpenCL and for Vulkan are substantially different, with the translation between the two being quite non-trivial.

(note that rusticl + zink does deal with it _partially_ to some extent nowadays)

Okay, then I’m curious. What does that statement have to do with (something like) “the belief that the elites and the common people are in political opposition”?
It is not so much that it is cyclical than VLIW being good for numerical/DSP stuff with more predictable memory access and terrible for general computation. Itanium was ok at floating point code, but terrible at typical pointer chasing loads.
A bit off topic, but when did "compute" become a noun? It is extremely grating to my ears.
Dang, I really empathize with this. I’m sure you’ve exhausted through a bunch of journals, but one journal I’d check out to see if it works for you if you haven’t already is “BestSelf.” It helps outline your goals and break them down into smaller achievable chunks. I apologize in advance if this doesn’t help because I recognize you don’t seem to have much luck with journals, but if you haven’t heard of that one, I’d check it out. When it comes to coming up with goals, I found that difficult too. Even this journal challenges me at that, but it helped me brain storm. I think trying to start generic and vague, then dive deeper into my goals seems to help me. I also think the key to accomplishing our goals is small wins consistently every day. Also, something new I’ve been trying is to try and find activities that can double dip progress towards my goals. Two smaller goals I’ve had is to stay positive and improve my penmanship. I’ve decided to write one positive affirmation 15-25 times over and over again. For example, a sentence I might write is “I will get a job and become successful.” [kinda corny ~ I know] I’d write that sentence at least 15 times in my smaller hand journal. This helps me stay positive when I’m down, and hopefully improves my penmanship ever so slightly. If I wanted to improve my penmanship fast or positive mindset there are probably better ways to do that; however, I find that I end up falling off from the bigger activities that might be more effective. To be honest, I’m still trying to find what strategies work for me. I think we all kind of need to just experiment and find what works best for us. No clue if this is of any help to you, but I hope there’s something of use. Good luck. You got this and all your goals will be achieved and realized.
I appreciate your contribution to the conversation, but have to disagree : "Had fascism succeeded" is kinda of an impossibility. it's bad at doing things and internally eats itself as soon as it gets power.

Well, both Linus and RMS have attracted their share of controversy. In the case of Linus, while you may not always agree with him, there seems to be broader support for his engineering choices. He has multiple projects that have dominated their spaces on their own merits. Whatever you think of Stallman, there is no denying his historical contribution.

For myself, I am more bothered by RMS. Although I know Chimera has shunned GNU for technical reasons, I would personally prefer a world where all GNU software has been replaced by alternatives. In my view, we would be better off to be free of RMS and the politics he has created around around “GNU / Linux”. The GPL itself is an important option in Open Source and, while it is not my favourite, I wish it and the projects that adopt it much success. However, the GNU Project itself is becoming an impediment ( my views only of course ). Luckily, the GNU project represents quite a small list of software projects despite the way people talk about it. Replacing GCC, Glibc, and Coreutils would be enough. Of these, the most damaging and the hardest to replace is probably Glibc.

Anyway, my intent is not to trigger people with such opinions in this thread. I do not want them to reflect badly on Chimera. My only reason for chiming in is to illustrate that Poettering is not unique in collecting detractors.

Finally, systemd did solve real problems at the time. There are other solutions now though so let’s not render them inoperable.
Also, not everything systemd wants to be now is better than the alternatives or even what came before. Not liking systemd does not mean wanting to go back to init scripts.

Btw, the system I use most daily uses systemd. I also use it in a project at work although, there, we have a strange bug “rarely” at shutdown that systemd is implicated in and I wish it ( and is ecosystem ) were easier to understand. So again, I find the Chimera approach attractive.

> First of all, french is not some beautiful language once you grok the grammar, rather pretty weird and old layered 'spaghetti code' with tons of exceptions to tons of obscure rules (nothing, absolutely nothing elegant there). Its needlessly complex especially when you know other languages solved it much better,

Though I can’t disagree with the “ancient spaghetti code” characterisation, “needlessly complex” is linguistically meaningless. People continuously use language and infelicities are typically rapidly eliminated.

My wife and I would between us resort to French express things that couldn’t be conveniently expressed in our respective native languages. I think it’s pretty common — probably universal — to inject foreign loan words or phrases in multilingual families or other groups. In the case of resorting to French, it’s usually for a word that has a lot of implications, ambiguity or other ramifications, which can be expressed compactly in French. A consequence of the spaghetti code you decry.

Written Arabic is really great for this.
Oh actually there's a much more obvious case where prohibiting getters on rvalues would be a problem. It would prevent you from doing this in general:

myReader.getFoo().getBar()

Here, `myReader` is already a view type; ownership of the backing buffer lives elsewhere. `getFoo()` returns a reader for some sub-struct, and `getBar()` returns a member of that struct. If we say getters are not permitted to be called on rvalues, this expression is illegal, but there's no actual problem with it and in practice we write code like this all the time.

Non-stick pans are massively overrated. For starters most foods don't stick much - it's mostly eggs that are a problem - and only then if your pan isn't preheated.

For that small benefit, non-stick pans have become almost the default. They last a couple of years depending on care which means that your cookware is now a consumable as well was difficult to recycle. A decent stainless steel pan costs about twice what a decent non-stick does and lasts forever. It can also go in the dishwasher and works on every hob type. The best basic advice for the majority of people to make regarding cookware is: get stainless steel except for when frying eggs.

The advice in TFA is sort of similar but a lot longer. To be honest I think it could have omitted all the "$1000 budget" stuff - the people who want to buy copper/carbon steel aren't doing so based on a starter guide.
I don't think anyone is surprised half a continent speaking French has its own twist on the language. But it is interesting to read about, especially the impact that hip-hop and rap in these countries have had on the dialects, such as calling your boyfriend bread.
ah, sorry, i didn’t read that correctly.

perhaps for values like this you’re fine. i think my point still stands about the reader of a built-in list/sequence type, surely?

and, not to sound facetious, that’s exactly what optimisers do :)

the c++ type system is more than capable about reasoning about lifetimes, the issue is that, with c++, it’s an optional part of the language. also, the lack of non-destructive moves. but to require both of those things in the language would require, essentially, the borrow checker in rust.
There is no time. Time has no physical representation. Time is an anthropomorphic abstraction and a mathematical concept that helps us track and understand the flow of processes, but there is no time as a dimension, particle, or a constraint that limits the physics of our universe. There is only now. Time travel will never be possible, other than the side effects of time dilation from gravity or energy/motion. Gravity is not a particle or a wave either; it is merely a curvature of space (not space-time curvature, as time is a side effect of our observation and ability to remember and extrapolate. Time dilation is a slowdown of the process, though mathematically it is convenient to use the space-time concept) caused by mass or energy. There is no evidence to the contrary. Thus, any possible time-travel mechanics just show a hole in our understanding of the universe.

I will print this text and eat the printout as soon as someone provides physical evidence of the graviton or time as anything other than an abstract concept or tool

I agree with most all of that, and maybe a different way to frame it is, 'human induced changes in ecosystems can cause problems for humans'

I don't really agree its damaging to or causing problems for nature/ecosystems, or that its unnatural, because it implies that humans themselves are not part of nature or ecosystems, that we are something different in kind than the rest of nature (you can argue this in some dimensions sure). I don't think humans settling a new place and introducing bands of cats who are fed from petfood is _that_ different from a landbridge opening up for a couple of centuries. Things will stabilise it's just a matter of timeline.

I think maybe the part that annoys me is that it's humans trying to control the ecosystem under the guise of keeping it in some idealised 'natural state' when that's cleary not a thing in nature, and how we end up having people advocating mandatory neutering of cats and dogs and laws that people must keep cats inside, practises which kinda disturb me tbh.
Only 3-cycle swap is nice. I can see how you could write very specialized code for some critical sections completely omitting all barriers even on the acquire side. But 3-cycles is low even for plain loads. Is the address-to-use latency so low on firestorm?
My understanding is that the black hole curves space so much that there is no path out of it.

>cancer rates have been exploding the last decades

For reasons that are really quite well-understood. PFASs are not known to be significantly carcinogenic, particularly not at the miniscule levels most people are exposed to. We willingly fill ourselves with things that are definitely very carcinogenic - processed meat, alcohol, tobacco smoke, diesel fumes, etc etc ad nauseum.

Exposure to some of these carcinogens has been static or declining in some western countries, which has led to static or declining age-adjusted cancer incidence rates. They have vastly increased in the middle-income countries that are home to most of the world's population. The life of the average Chinese or Indian person has been transformed beyond all recognition in recent decades (for better and for worse) by urbanisation and industrialisation.

There isn't some unseen and unrecognised carcinogen that is sweeping the world and wreaking havoc; the global poor are just getting rich enough to develop the kind of lifestyle-related cancers that we're accustomed to in the west, while also getting rich enough to be diagnosed rather than just getting sick and dying.

Look at the source cited by that article - the growth in cancer rates is completely dominated by rapidly-growing economies in the global south.

another brain-dead 'feature' of all this is automatic URL parsing of search queries with a leading/trailing slash or colon.

it's a victim of "all the ways for all the people", and it can't do either very well.

The optimal middle ground for me was the separation between search query bar and URL bar.

And why did we combine the two? Well, it was to reduce screen clutter and combine features so that we could make room for....

making the URL bar longer, generally far longer than any sensibly human-readable URL. Brilliant!

(the REAL reason was because Chrome wanted to shovel people into Google Search as promptly as possible, and that started a Stupid Browser Trend that firefox got suckered into following.)

I’ve had extraordinary luck with broken French in France. If you start in French and do your best, a lot of people suddenly speak fluent English. Especially in metro areas.

But the experience does not compare to traveling with my partner who speaks fluent zero-accent French. Paris turns into a different much nicer city when you pair with a native speaker.

That said, you’ll never get the level of service you see in USA. The French (Europe in general) just don’t care that much about customer UX. You either do it their way or you can leave.
By putting the search into the URL, Chrome is able to track every page you go to (since the URL is perhaps a search term) and how long you stay there, and what page you go to from each page you visit.

With search suggestions on (the default), they get that even for FF users.

Not only that, but every GET argument on every page is sent to Google as well, since they are perhaps search terms - so as you type your content is being sent; You can imagine the value even BEFORE getting to the fact that it generates more searches.

Which is a shame, since I used to use the URL bar to search my browsing history and the Search bar to search the net, and the whole UI was so much improved, even ignoring all the times I accidentally am sent to a search results page I didn't want.

> It’s hard to be a Product Manager without owning a product

I'll say it depends on the size of the product. If you're dealing with say ERPs (Oracle Fusion Apps, WorkDay, SAP, etc), a PM can't own an entire product. Instead, they'll own multiple features where each of those features are complex in themselves and being ERP typically involve integration with multiple other products.

But I agree with the general thrust of your point which seems to be that the PM should own something 'significant'

I'm not a fan of Stallman either. I think he focuses too much on the legalese around licences. Personally I don't care about licensing very much at all. I ignore all licenses and terms & conditions anyway (and to be perfectly honest; who actually reads them?)

Nor commercial involvement (e.g. RedHat/IBM or Ubuntu) for that matter. This is why I'm better off with BSD anyway because there's so much less commercial involvement.

And Linus yes he can be abrasive but usually I would agree with him more.

> I call your proficiency with Linux into question (don’t take this in spite, please, it’s in no way meant personally).

Well I'm certainly not very good with Linux anymore since I've used it less and less recently, gravitating more towards the BSDs. So that's not a bad point, I know how to start and stop systemd services and a bit on how to get logging back etc. But the point is, I never really wanted to learn something new. I've used FreeBSD since version 6 and it's hardly changed at all. And it works totally fine for me. But "being good with Linux" is not a goal for me anyway. I don't currently need it for my career anyway.

In the mean time I've been on Macs, but I really really abhor the way that Apple is constantly changing things around on me too (they are far worse at this than Linux) and they are consumerising the OS rapidly. So when I went back to FOSS I decided to go for BSD for this reason.
