Just so I'm understanding it correctly, it should say "finite number of OUTPUTS" there, right?
Thanks for posting and well
done. Small suggestion for your writing style: use less ALL CAPS / BOOM! / WOW! styles and embrace less dramatic wording: it would make your site read more professionally and be easier to digest. Good luck.
The notion of 'culture' does this. It's a meaningless term. No-one ever says 'we fixed the business culture but the company still isn't delivering', because the culture is always inferred from the results. So as a concept it has no explanatory power whatsoever; it only obfuscates, providing a convenient cover for incompetent managers who can say dumb things like 'culture is hard to change'.

I work in the public service where accountability has been transformed from a concrete thing (who is responsible for this?) to a 'value'. So the org chart is set-up so no-one is accountable for anything, the processes are set-up so no-one is accountable for anything, but if you point this out managers will retort that it doesn't matter, because what's really important is that everyone personally commits to the value of accountability which in turn will create a culture of accountability. They've replaced performance reviews with workers writing about how much they embrace accountability (of course the absence of genuine reviews helps ensure no-one can be held accountable for poor performance).

I'm increasingly of the opinion that any manager who talks at length about culture is a moron. It's a fuzzy catch-all that can be invoked to explain anything without understanding anything, of great value to the modern manager who typically understands nothing.

It's worse than a "complicated broken mess". It doesn't work at all on iOS 14.3 (iPhone). It's just stuck displaying some glowing squares.

There is an increasing number of websites which are becoming broken on iOS 14.3. https://thesaurus.com is another example; it used to work fine, until a few months ago, when they pushed a frontend update that now results in an "Unexpected application error"; not even partial functionality, only the error message is displayed.

I find revolting this culture of mandatory technology upgrades that add no real value.
2x sounds like it includes non-billable employees like assistants, HR, accounting etc. A 100% overhead is probably quite common.

Pure employee costs are more in the 1.2 - 1.3x range (Europe). That is 30% on top of the gross salary for employer taxes, health insurances etc.

Well, working in HPC, in my view the reason is the users (researchers/scientists) just want to use the machine as they have used it in the past, and this has been going on for many years now. That makes sense, as it allows them to focus on the scientific questions, not on IT stuff.
They keep on using the tooling with which the software package they use came, and in some cases that is already 30 years old.

I would contest the remark on Infiniband, since there is Slingshot which will be faster for real-world applications, and also Omnipath.
I don't have a definition, and i am the last person qualified to give a correct answer to that, but if we rephrase the question as: "Are ML algorithms more than tools", i would answer as no. ML algorithms did go a lot further than i was expecting, especially in language generation, but they are just tools. Great tools, but still tools.
Not sure the internet and publicly available data really reflect the "is" properly - I suspect the data to be biased in complex way.
I think they mean "finite number of rows", which would be "finite number of distinct inputs" or "finite number of outputs". The context is the challenge of writing down an infinite table.

There's probably a recursive/inductive equivalent notation but maybe it's hard to render clearly as a table.

We uh as a group project did markov chains with some custom algorithmic adjustments, scraped reddit via api, and academic torrent (this data required a lot of cleaning and was orders of magnitude bigger, ran separately), to simulate posts and comments. In same group project we also implemented Variable Length Markov Chain, tree-based custom context-length, although a team member did the matrix based implementation custom context-length as well through some matrix magic.
this is old tech - but it had me thinking. Markov chains are picking the next token from a random set and they are giving approximately all possible tokens (from the training set) an equal probability. What if it weighted the probability - say using the inverse vector distance or cosine similarity of the neighbors as a proxy for probability, where the vector embedding came from word2vec...how close would the performance be to a transformer model or even something like lstm rnns ? (I suppose I'm cheating a bit using word2vec here. I might as well just say I'm using the attention mechanism...)
Don't try to change history, learn from it.

That's why it's important to stop the censorship of old media that doesn't fit modern standards.
Its mostly tribal knowledge at this point built on the echo of “studies show 80 is the best for comprehension and understanding”

80 should be fine for most single lines of good code in most languages.

Comments can usually be longer so I have my linter ignore comment length.

Some discussion here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/578059/studies-on-optima...

For me it’s one of those things without a “scientific” answer, but the status quo is good enough that it’s easier to just go with it and never think about it again. Like linting and autoformatting, tabs vs spaces, all trivial stuff that detracts energy from building a product for customers.
For a hack day project someone took our IRC logs to do something similar for employees who had left (one bot per engineer, small company so a handful of bots). This made for a great afternoon until the bots started talking to each other and then started triggering the simple command the ops bot would accept. It quickly got shut down.
They'll probably go away once IA's Mastodon mods wake up. I only see good comments from my instance, but it's been around long enough to have encountered all those commenters and/or their instances to know to block them.

Why I *will* pay for a coding AI
While there are many possible AIs out there, people are saying, including me, why should I pay $10 or more per month to use one? I'm trying the AIs out right now -- here's why, if I find one I like, I'll pay for it.

Anyone remember the old days when you were writing code? You'd run across a roadblock and need guidance. Back in the old days, first, you'd ask Usenet- and sometimes you'd get a useful answer. But if that didn't work, you'd actually buy a book. This was before Amazon so you'd have to go to a bookstore, pray they had more than six real CompSci books, and buy one. They weren't cheap.

Today, it's much the same -- first, you go to YouTube, wait through the ads, hope the content you want is there, and not AI generated, and if that doesn't work, you go to Stackoverflow, get yelled at, get told you have dishonored your parents, then, you are forced to see if Udemy or Pluralsight has a course, if Safaribooks has what you want, and, if all else fails, go to Amazon and buy a book. Again, none of this is $10 a month.

If AIs can do this, without my being yelled at, or ad'ed to death, it's worth it!

The subtitle "Lambda: The Ultimate Document" is much more informative about the content of this paper than its actual title (for those familiar with the series of papers that have generated the programming language Scheme).
At that point, you aren't using anything on the host browser except the WASM interpreter and the canvas element, so why bother with any of its other components?
I'm using icecast2 for that. The only downsides are that it does only mp3s and sometimes it goes mute after a track ends. A short silent transition track should work around the latter problem but I never managed to make it work. I configured a hotkey to restart VLC on my laptop instead.

The system requirements are really minimal.

"Look to where just cowardly moving out of Afghanistan has taken us.

Another humiliating retreat would be a colossal blow to US."

It's not about humiliation at this point. The US actually cannot beat these countries straight up in a shooting war anymore. The combination of post-Cold War deindustrialization, the lack of morale after 2 decades of fruitless wars, and the politicization of the military reducing its appeal to its traditional recruits, especially in the rank-and-file, have shown their fruits in the collapse of American deterrence ability in the 2020s. Russia wouldn't have dared to attack Ukraine in the first place if the US was stronger, and NATO's performance has only been good enough to avoid Russia steamrolling Ukraine, not to significantly retake Russia's gains. Russia can make more artillery shells than NATO combined. Ukraine is even more at risk now that the West's attention has wandered to the Middle East, endangering the aid that's kept them in the war so far.

Some would blame this on the current president, but I think the rot is much broader and deeper. If there is a future of the American military, it will probably consist of Anduril taking it over.
20 years ago I was using SunRays which were neat because you could tie a desktop session to a physical smart card and have it instantly pop up on any terminal you stuck the card into.

As someone who has been using Mastodon for over a year, this is the first time I’ve seen comments like these. And I am sure that it gets worse. All the instances we federate with must either have stellar moderation or not federate with these instances.

In fact from my server (and not this link) I don’t see these comments at all.
The quote could equally have been about Pixar, another wildly successful company of which he was the CEO.
The fact that it comes with Quake 3, playable and everything is amazing.
Hah, this reminds me of my C++ professor requiring a max line width of 80 characters. My first question was “why not more!?” aswell.

He would have the homework submissions compiled to LaTeX and printed out - then he would write comments by hand. 80 characters was what would fit on a line. If you had more characters, lines wrapped wrongly and you’d get incorrect looking code - so he refused to grade.

I’ve since warmed up to the max line width idea. It’s nice to be able to read code on a small width window (I’ll rarely have a single full screen window with just code) and ensure each line is a valid syntax (and not unreadable due to softwrap in the editor). But I still think 80 chars is a bit extreme. 120 is nicer in my opinion.
I'm only a begginer, of course, but it seems to be long lines are better than broken ones.

I use both Firefox and Chrome, and Firefox has better usability and is not lagging in performance in any practical way. And I'm a very heavy user.

Not sure what you mean by Firefox missing reality. It exists.
Can anyone report how well this would work on a pure touch device (tablet)? I have a Thinkpad X1 Tablet (gen3) and am still looking for the best Linux distribution to work with it as a plain tablet, without the keyboard attached. Plain Fedora has some very annoying bugs with the on-screen keyboard. Installing the Phosh extension fixed most of these, but this introduces other annoying things that make it tedious to use. Also, the disk encryption still requires to attach a keyboard at boot, since Grub does not feature an on-screen keyboard, so I'm wondering how this was solved here.

This things take time. If Churchill would have been rushed to "have a victory in two years in WWII or we'll quit", everybody in Europe would be a nazi today.
The commercially available solvers may be using CFR, but they are not anywhere near as strong as Pluribus because Pluribus pre-computed solutions for a reduced state space, then mapped the hand and actions into that reduced space and solved from there. That meant Pluribus could come up with a much better solution in much less time than the commercial solvers. This is also why most of the solvers only solve heads up.

In the 80s it was an astounding success with the Apple ][ then it all went to shit funded by that machine. He didn’t invent the LaserWriter.

Jobs was great at seeing the potential of tech but he was a terrible CEO until NeXT fell to pieces and he learned some humility to go with that famous reality distortion field.

Canion is so underrated. Unlike Jobs he simply kicked IBM in the nuts and redefined the entire computer business.
Amazing. Pitched the same idea for a startup with my students back in 2020 (never got very far though as every member of the budding team got busy with other things). Was convinced we could turn the language models of the time into this back then and now a few years later it is done through API calls to a third party. We truly live in interesting times.
Of course, as is a custom, there's a person jumping onto an opportunity to involve politics into a non-political post mentioning Yugoslavia, and claims how it was all the Serbia / Croatia / Bosnia's fault...Thanks for keeping the tradition alive. /s

The reason why Balkans is such a shit-show for centuries is in the similar mentality of the people living here, embodied in the saying "God, please make my neighbor's cow die"; mentality, language and culture of Croatians, Bosnians, Serbs, Montenegrins, Macedonians, and Slovenians is 90% the same.

There is a reason why Yugo-nostalgia is such a thing in this region, and a great great majority of regular folks did not have anything against any of their neighbors, were mixing like crazy, and in a lot of cases living their best lives then - until politics and power struggles of very few, pushed by the West as well, destroyed most of what was good. Of course SFRJ had a lot of traits of communist regimes, in forced culture and "unity" aspects that were bothering people to some extent (not unsimilar to how those exist even in modern Germany, for example), but that was definitely not the main reason for the failure of the federation.

In the manufactured scenario that lead to the breakup, Milosevic gained a disproportionate number of votes in the federation, through basically taking over the political top of other members - but a lot of people also note how it was Croatia that was disproportionately favored by Tito for decades before and it created the "unequal" sentiment - just to advance the point that finger-pointing is always a thing and not useful for the discussion. If we were any smarter and had less self-absorbed and everyone-else-is-to-blame mentality , we would have formed at least economic alliances between the former Yugoslav countries not long after the breakup - in the end, we're all pretty much the same idiots, and got played. (Also, to clarify, I'm Croatian).
Yeah but if that tax write-off ends up all in the pocket of the CEO, it starts to look more like a tax dodge scheme for the CEO.
Thank you for sharing this here! Looking for it.
> 80 should be fine for most single lines of good code in most languages.

It feels like what's doable in one language, might be a bit more restrictive and annoying to follow in another one. For example, Java, when written in an idiomatic way, with verbose variable names etc.
You can pick instances you federate with, but why do you need to defederate with instances that federate with other instances you dislike?

If I want to follow Madonna, and Madonna follows Trump, but the admin of my instance doesn't like Trump's instance, I cannot follow Madonna any more? Or does it only affect pulling all the content and I can interact normally even if the instances don't federate?
Worth reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jasenovac_concentration_camp

> Operated by the governing Ustaše regime, Europe's only Nazi collaborationist regime that operated its own extermination camps

> It quickly grew into the third largest concentration camp in Europe

> Unlike German Nazi-run camps, Jasenovac lacked the infrastructure for mass murder on an industrial scale, such as gas chambers. Instead, it "specialized in one-on-one violence of a particularly brutal kind", and prisoners were
primarily murdered with the use of knives, hammers, and axes, or shot

> Ustaše regime having murdered somewhere near 100,000 people in Jasenovac between 1941 and 1945
