Page 9 & 10 of the paper [1] go into some detail:

> By constructing a search query that joins together 32 randomly generated identifiers using the OR operator, the efficiency of each search increases by a factor of 32. To further increase search efficiency, randomly generated identifiers can take advantage of case insensitivity in YouTube’s search engine. A search for either "DQW4W9WGXCQ” or “dqw4w9wgxcq” will return an extant video with the ID “dQw4w9WgXcQ”. In effect, YouTube will search for every upper- and lowercase permutation of the search query, returning all matches. Each alphabetical character in positions 1 to 10 increases search efficiency by a factor of 2. Video identifiers with only alphabetical characters in positions 1 to 10 (valid characters for position 11 do not benefit from case-insensitivity) will maximize search efficiency, increasing search efficiency by a factor of 1024. By constructing search queries with 32 randomly generated alphabetical identifiers, each search can effectively search 32,768 valid video identifiers.

They also mention some caveats to this method, namely, that it only includes publicly listed videos:

> As our method uses YouTube search, our random set only includes public videos. While an alternative brute force method, involving entering video IDs directly without the case sensitivity shortcut that requires the search engine, would include unlisted videos, too, it still would not include private videos. If our method did include unlisted videos, we would have omitted them for ethical reasons anyway to respect users’ privacy through obscurity (Selinger & Hartzog, 2018). In addition to this limitation, there are considerations inherent in our use of the case insensitivity shortcut, which trusts the YouTube search engine to provide all matching results, and which oversamples IDs with letters, rather than numbers or symbols, in their first ten characters. We do not believe these factors meaningfully affect the quality of our data, and as noted above a more direct “brute force” method - even for the purpose of generating a purely random sample to compare to our sample - would not be computationally realistic.

I like the idea but the README is lacking screenshots.

Also, I think it would make sense to base this on XMPP or ActivityPub, for federation and interop with other services.

Yup, graphics processors are still the best for training. Groq's language processors (LPUs) are the state of the art for inference, far faster than any competitors. We have an open challenge to our competitors: can you match our inference tokens per second?
Musk has stated that his goals for space colonization are for his children’s children and his friend’s grandchildren to be the ones doing all the colonizing, and that earth is just a resource (people included) to burn up in pursuit of that goal. Any scientific advancements in his eyes are for the sole purpose of getting the ultra wealthy into space, with zero concern for the impact that has on the rest of us.

The number of input tokens is important because the bigger the context length the better. (I think our demo here is 4096 tokens of context.) But in terms of compute the important factor is how quickly you can generate the output. You want both low latency and high throughput.
This was extremely cute! I like the fact that each small puzzle had its own reset point, so you were never overstressed and could just keep retrying.

For me, json and yaml formatting and analysis. ChatGPT is pretty decent at the following real work tasks I used to use less robust tooling for:

- pretty print and indent “json-like” string (ex. Python object str) from a log, or json with typos (extra commas, wrong quotes, imbalanced brackets…) with a summary of errors at the end.

- verbal description (numerically listed) of the changes between two commits of a yaml file, esp when order has changed making git diff hard to read.

Yeah but my point is that it's not a complete search tool while it makes you jump through hoops of indirectly asking "hypothetical" questions.

It needs to directly answer all the questions that are given to it. If it must finish out the post with a disclaimer like "I am not a doctor/lawyer, this is not medical/legal advice" or whatever, that's fine.
It's a completely custom ASIC. Haskell was used in the hardware design, in a Bluespec-like way. Some parts of the compiler tool chain and infrastructure are also written in Haskell. We have loads of C++ and Python too, as you would imagine.

Enonic? As a contractor in Norway I saw that multiple places before headless etc became popular.

One hack I remember that fit this thread, is someone using Enonic as a headless cms long before headless cms was a thing. Basically every string in their frontend apps had a key, and that key was a hierarchy of articles in Enonic. So a whole "enonic article" for every single piece of text, like, every button, heading, menu element was backed by its own article.

That meant that the editors could edit any piece of text in the SPA from Enonic. An article in /cms/myapp/something/myelement we then would export to the key myapp.something.myelement, and we did that for all ten thousands of small text string articles, and then built that into the SPA with a sync job running regularly.

We also had a way to turn off templating in the SPA. Appending ?showKeys or something to the url would print the keys instead of the content, helping the editors know which article to edit for that element on the page.

Hi. Great work! I'll be giving this a try, as I always type my notes on txt files.

Any plans on adding support for tabs/multiple files? I usually have different files for different types of notes (todos, project notes, tmp file for random things, etc).
I did, actually, before posting here. It couldn't tell me anything except a vague "it's a broader and more low-level API so it has a wider attack surface". Except in about 2000 words.

By the way, it was tiresome when people told me to go Google answers. It's just as tiresome when people tell me to go ask an AI. I'm here to talk with real people, not computers.

Besides, HN is a place where there's often an expert who will know far more than what's widely available on the web about even the most obscure of technical knowledge.
Well, let me tell you that you are my first favorited comment not containing technical info since... July 2022.

Also I'd love working with you (programmer with 22 years of experience, 43 y/o).

My question to you is: do you manage to implement the policy you are advocating for?

It has to be the auto-playing Tomb Raider agent, where LLMs were used to give Lara self-awareness. I've never seen anything like it.

It starts off with some classical computer vision shenanigans to understand the character movement, map layout, and to create the 'desire' to explore. Then the LLM is given input of images, sound descriptions and prior thoughts, lettting Lara remark on the situation, which feels very surreal and, at least for me - very unexpdcted. E.g. she hears the wolves howl and wonders how they survived in this environment. Or meta-remarks on game music changes.

Maggie Appleton shared some interesting ideas a few months ago[1]. I especially find the ”Branches” concept interesting, just the idea of exploring multiple paths from a starting point in parallel.

1: https://maggieappleton.com/lm-sketchbook
Can you talk a little more about the process? I’m guessing you’re not just prompting gpt to list most common words.

Are you asking the LLM to annotate text and then count number of annotations?

How do you make sure that each disambiguation has a stable label throughout?
Same goes for saving games on the old systems — that's using a RAM chip kept alive by a battery inside the cartridge.
This is a nice way to express it, imo. I also think it's possible to interpret what happens differently. A balloon or something in space doesn't have anything to move against, whereas the chair's wheels are on the floor. When you move the weight in an environment without anything to respond to, ie in suspension in a vacuum, there is no opposite to respond or work against. Both seem possible to me - that a chair+person-with-weight is capable of generating it's own momentum and that nothing happens in space, in a vacuum.
It's a subject which interest me very much as I'm the father of boys who were misdiagnosed as autist (turns out that twins do have a different development but doctors don't know about it).

On one hand if it's real that's huge, on the other hand I wouldn't take this test seriously until the AI has been tested with pictures of children 1) taken in exactly the same conditions 2) the picture should be taken before the children has been diagnosed (this way you truly have a double blind study).
Yeah "mention" wasn't the right phrase. I thought those were way too brief given his outsized impact at the moment.

I'm not a film expert, but I like to think I have taste? And yet, somehow the recent Beatles projects reduced me to tears on several occasions. Am I secretly a chud in denial, or are my tastes just offensive?

Look, everyone has the right to be an elitist on their own film blog. The author didn't ask us to read what he said. However, his entire thesis is dramatically undermined by the simple fact that he didn't attempt to grab even a single comparison frame from the original releases so that a reader can A/B them and make up their minds for themselves.

As to his distaste for those upscaled and colorized vintage shorts, I'm happy to go on record and say that I love them. In fact, watching these clips is the closest thing my family has to a Christmas tradition at this point. My personal favorite is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQs5VxNPhzk and frankly, I don't have the time of day for anyone who is upset that I think it's wonderful.
Sure I have my viewpoint. But I'm also genuinely interested in your viewpoint.

My viewpoint is that I don't buy the idea that there is a group (or groups) of people that have both the means (money) and the ideas they made up themselves and they use the money to push the ideas to the passive masses who are then brainwashed by these rich people.

I think the masses produce the ideas. Those ideas are then selected and amplified by all sorts of people leveraging all sorts of means driven by all sorts of motives.

In fact there are plenty of examples of populist leaders that are not rich. The fact that the US has the cult of the millionaire sometimes obfuscates that fact; for some reason for populist leaders in the US to raise they have to be millionaire (or pretend to be) to begin with.

My point is that, sure, the moneyed class does play a role, but reality is much more complex than that and I don't really buy the idea that the world is "controlled" by a bunch of "supermen" who are both incredibly wealthy and also incredibly intelligent and play 4d chess.

I'm not sure you believe that, that's why I wanted to ask a question instead of implying anything for your position. But since you asked.

I'm about to become a new parent in a few days and reading things like this upsets me.
By limiting web search results to "a few known sites", you'd be expediting the death of parts of it.

The beauty of search engines (in theory) is that you can find something NEW. Keeping the "open web" out would just entrench and ossify the current players.
and I can't even get it to analyze a 10000 line Jason file.
My library (in the UK) has this too, but you still have to do one book at a time.
Our startup needed to automate our invoicing process. Back in the day there were only a couple of reasonably priced, web based ERP systems in our country.

The one we picked had good API docs, but we didn't read the fine print - API access was a high yearly fee, costing almost as much as the regular subscription fee.

Their web interface functionality for importing orders/invoices from a CSV file, and looking at the browser requests I could see they were simply using the API in their frontend. A couple of hours later, and we had our invoice import job doing POST requests to their login page, getting the right cookies back and uploading invoice files.

Worked fine for years, only requiring a couple of updates when they changed their login page.
The mental gymnastics one has to do to even ask such a question is astonishing. We are reducing this planet's capacity to support any wildlife at rapid speed. Modern people can afford to be blind to this, because it's not their necks that are at stake (for now).

Actually the method works regardless of the distribution. It's an interesting and important feature of random sampling. Consider 1000 IDs assigned in the worst (most skewed) way: as a sequence from 0 to 999. If there are 20 videos they will have IDs 0 to 19. If you draw 500 independent random numbers between 0 and 999, each number will have 2% probability of being in the range 0 to 19. So on average you will find that 2% of your 500 attempts find an existing video. From that you conclude that 2% of the whole space of 1000 IDs are assigned. You find correctly that there are 0.02*1000 = 20 videos.
I recently had the displeasure of watching "Callas Paris 1958" in the cinema. Visually an unbelievable dystopia.

Here's the trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzTMIoRpmF8 and in the description it claims 16mm film as source, which should have given in a much better result in my opinion. I guess there's plenty of TV tape after all in this production.

During her performance of Tosca the AI messed up grande. Callas singing, a candelabra in the background and the camera caught her face right in front of the candles. The AI set her lips and nose on flames...
For Smartphone / CE grade recorded video. Not for professional ones. Remember that number is average.

Mateusz delivers high quality C++ code since a long time. Having implemented a similar library with C++ 03 in 2008 I highly appreciate the amount of attention to detail he invests here. We had numerous bugs in formulas found by that library over the years.
From a great author, no doubt, a good piece on creativity, although at times a bit too far-fetched. Given that much of the academic literature on creativity/innovation/etc. is pretty abstract and quantitative, these kind of takes are always interesting for practitioners.

That was just a misreported survey https://static1.squarespace.com/static/633f0603fdaa7311ba384... where headlines used the "sex" angle because it draws more clicks, but the survey includes "romance" in the same category as well.

Of course you can recycle the argument and just say that Gen Z wants less gratuitous romantic relationships in their TV shows and movies; one theory being that if they want romance they know where to find it, so they consider it even more jarring than we do when it's shoehorned into content merely because there's a demographic who's into that kind of thing.
The actual purpose of Strava is to compare your time with that of others. Or at least to show off your activities.

Especially the free version is (nowadays, 10 years ago when I really used it that wasn't a problém) lacking features to be a useful training (tracking/logging) tool on it's own.
Yes and not so long ago Britain was built upon pirating :)

Just remember that gunpowder is part of life too
More specifically I was talking about equating contrail reduction with removing carbon from the atmosphere, which the article does when it says

> Marc Shapiro, the head of contrails at Breakthrough Energy, calls reducing contrails [...] the equivalent of removing carbon from the atmosphere at a cost of 10 dollars per ton or less

Contrail reduction and carbon sequestration aren't the same thing and it's not fair to equate them on cost.
You make an interesting point.

If the subject matter is popular enough, we could be entering an era where upscaling and correction are redone and rereleased every 4-6 years as the technology continues to improve.

The cynical take is that IP holders will attempt to milk owners for more money every time there's a major leap. The optimistic take is that perhaps We will start to see popular movies and television as evergreen works that get better and better over time; another lens would be to compare it to software, which we all seem to agree is never Done (and that's usually a good thing).

I think you might mean schizotypal symptoms. Schizoid personality disorder is considered "on the spectrum" with schizophrenia but has very little similarity to it other than social withdrawal.
It should not have to be said, but (especially in in the West) we tend to forget about it:

Turkey has more inhabitants than the most populous country in western Europe (Germany). Turkey is also significantly larger than the largest country in western Europe (France).

When it comes to the number of Internet users it is on par with Germany and beats all other western European countries.
Reminds me of scenario where certain countries worked on enhancing various viruses to make them more dangerous.

We’re moving to Tailwind in a project rearchitecture initiative next year and I’m _thrilled_. We have SASS files, and a lot of them. They are mostly well-organized (ish) and, at one point, they were well-maintained.

But, this component needs a little more padding here and not there. We need flexbox - which parts? Some. Some here, some there, but not all of it…yet. What about grids? Sure, maybe, how? Media queries spread all over the place wrapping things arbitrarily. Oh! And scoped styles every which way for that component-specific flair!

Our component class declarations are about to get a lot more verbose, and I’m all for it. I’d much rather see that, and know what the visual structure should be, instead of tracing a class back through mountains of tacked-on SCSS to add a child class that gets applied in one place that makes a thing have zero margin.
Why can't the bullet points just be used as is? Either they contain enough signal, or they don't and llm won't help anyways.

I fear everything will be expanded by llms soon. "write an email, three paragraphs, about X", instead of just sending X directly. Then the receiver gets a wall of text, and uses an llm to distill it back to X' before reading. Just hope too much didn't get lost in the inverse compression through llm.
Mail order without nexus didn't charge tax either. The Internet didn't invent the the interstate commerce loophole.
Post-it notes left in apartment
And Titanic (1997) was 3 hours, 15 minutes, and Che (2008 film) had some road show screenings at 4 hours, 27 minutes.

But Andy Hardy Gets Spring Fever (1939) was only 80 minutes.

Road show movies, with an intermission between the two acts of the film, don't have good economics. Lord of the Rings as three movies sells more ticket than one long one, and you can offer both evening and late shows.
How does a random sample solve for a clustered, say, distribution? Don't the estimations rely on assumptions of continuity?

Suppose I have addresses /v=0x00 to 0xff, but I only use f0 to ff; if you assume the videos are distributed randomly then your estimates will always be skewed, no?

So I take the addressable space and apply an arbitrary filter before assigning addresses.

Equally random samples will be off by the same amount, but you don't know the sparsity that I've applied with my filter?
Prediction: Kim Kardashian will be kicked off Instagram
I'm using it to filter out the content that's displayed in my browser screen as I browse: https://karimjedda.com/llms-in-the-middle-content-aware-clie...

Essentially, I wrote a small browser extension, that takes the content of LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube posts/titles, and filters them out based on if they are clickbait, low effort, etc.

It's liberating :D
