Ghandi did not say half the people do the work and half the people take the credit, which is what it sounds like your disagreement is with.

And of course, many binary segmentations work well for most cases and fail in unusual cases that can generally ignored.
I think the kind of weapons used to kill other robots would be different from the ones the robots would use for sex =)

Or in the worst case scenario, the killer robots will not fire their guns at the poor unsuspecting robot hookers. What a dealbreaker.
Go on, name a few.
I am with you, for what it’s worth. I would be tending the bar and frowning at anyone who asked for “gin and tonics” until they corrected themselves.
Diverse living conditions help equalize access to opportunity. The suburban schools being richer and having better teachers doesn't matter as much if those benefits aren't going almost exclusively to certain demographics, for instance.

The same applies to access to voting booths[1][2], access to healthy grocery stores[3], and so much more.

You ever buy a sandwich with meat in it? How about coffee? Chocolate? Driving a car? Use pesticides to clear your home of termites? Poisons to get rid of rats and other "pests"? Do you use smart phones and other gadgets with rare earth metals? Have you recently walked by a homeless person and what did you do about the situation? Do you have an opinion on Israel's actions in Gaza? Ever been in a car accident? Run over some animals/people because you were going too fast? Do you use makeup tested on animals? The list is endless.

The soul of humanity can be saved for a mere $80B with the help of the "panoptic computronium cathedral"™ so tell all your friends about it. A better humanity is possible for a very cheap investment, all that's needed is some hardware and software that will enable governing the world with mathematics.
That is pretty much my point. People freak out like this will somehow irreparably damage their children, which is complete nonsense. The reality is these people just don't want to have an uncomfortable conversation with their child, so they choose to make it everyone else's problem.
Are there any open-source cap table management alternatives?
I want to say it was at Sun in the mid 80s, most code lacked comments but there was one idiosyncratic data structure with field names having specific prefixes - with the comment “She’s Hungarian!” (Hungarian notation, presumably - and who was “she”?)

Doesn’t require an in-kernel driver which is increasingly difficult in the world of Secure Boot etc. Also more secure since if there’s a bug it doesn’t have kernel level access.

What's the strength of play for the GPT architecture? It's impressive that it figures out the rules, but does it play strong chess?

>> As they say, attention may indeed be all you need.

I don't think drawing general conclusions about intelligence from a board game is warranted. We didn't evolve to play chess or Go.
> even with Intel's underpowered GPU, won't the AI folks all be loving it?

No, they need to support at least pascal architecture.
> Whatever the solution to it might be, vague and fuzzy questions—while magnets for chatter since they can stand in for whatever someone wants to read out of them—are not the way to get there.

This is a great line. If HN had a quote of the month or something, this should be nominated for that.
>> I would like to live in a world where every child has an equal opportunity to make their own way in life.

Your wording is very specific, so I'm quoting it here. I see some of the replies missed the subtlety though, so I'd like to emphasise that.

You are specifically pointing out the opportunity to "make their own way". You are not implying that every child has the same opportunities.

Every child is born different. To different parents. In different communities. In different countries. Those differences are material, and will shape both opportunities and abilities.

Genetics means I'll never be a pro athlete. I play sports but no one has (or ever will) give me spotting 'opportunities'. My sporty friend can't draw, and no one us offering her the opportunity of a gallery show.

This is probably a good thing as I have no desire to he an athlete and she has no desire to be an artist.

That does not negate the opportunity we both have to live in a country, and time, when we can both pursue the life we (realistically) want. 100 years ago, her, not so much.

Life is not fair. I was blessed with a good education, a brain to get value from it, and some luck to turn it into a living. In turn we give opportunities to others.

Of course all children everywhere do not have the right to choose their own path. Indeed that's a -very- recent development, and is still not universal. External factors still collide all too often.

No child wants to be born into poverty, or famine, or war. Or be told their sexuality is offensive. Or be economically excluded because they're not white enough, or too white.

Life is not fair. It never will be. And I can't fix most of that. I'm ahead of fair, only because of accidents in genetics, heritage and timing. All I can strive to do is create opportunities for others, and try and play fair, overcoming some of the prejudices that got me here.

I am encouraged by the progress of the last 100 years. I hope that progress continues for the next 100.
All the religious systems that incoporates reincarnation, that I am aware of, does include the concept of evil in some way.

It seems your post contradicts itself? First quote "... that you are reincarnated and move up or down the ladder of greatness ... depending on how you lived, then there is no such thing as "evil"." Second quote: "... balance - each act you do (consider good/evil on a scale from 1-10 with 1 being evil)".

So the system with no evil uses a scale based on good/evil? Also, what are the bad things you can do in a life-action-value system, where there is no evil? Seems to be cruel if your karma gets subtracted because one does a 'less good' but still good thing? And would such a system or the karma subtraction not constitute evil in itself?
We do not disagree.
It's not necessarily faulty hardware but can be faulty software to reprise the initial expression.

But the reasons for faulty software are not necessarily understood.

(difference between a fault in structure vs. a fault in function)
I dont know.

A famous person with a drug problem. This is famously "good" news. Look at any other celebrity and the in depth coverage of their personal problems. Why should he be any different?
What they're trying to say is nature is a fractal of evil. The Wasps are just one very clear example.
A lot of them -- the whole "phishing" thing happens to crypto users with regularity, and often for surprisingly large amounts. Usually not the single-victim/cause $100mm+ hacks, but lots of $1-5mm losses. The "new" fun thing is creating spoofed addresses where first 4 and last 4 characters match a target, but are controlled by attacker, but variations on getting users to initiate transfers to the wrong address are pretty common.

Crypto gets a few things really right, and can do some things which can't be done by tradfi, but has a huge number of problems which need to be solved (some are "open problems" which don't really have solutions yet; some are taking what the top 0.1% of people or what people do some amount less than 100% of the time and making it universal, which is mostly what I am doing now as CSO at a crypto insurance company.)
I don't think so. She's making a meta comment about those papers. Also, it feels like you're trying to get me to say something, but I don't know what. I already said that I don't think this position is particularly controversial. She thinks QG is less mysterious than other physicists believe, big deal.
Season 2: It doesn't look like anything to me.
I am managing (among other things) a very large C++ library solving a very hard problem used by large scale enterprise software. The library has 9000+ tests. I haven’t had a bug in production for 5+ years. Despite making massive changes to the implementation details. I make changes and dump into production with zero worries. The productivity benefits of tests done well are amazing.

I would not trust the open source community with this private data. the potential for abuse is too distributed without practical access controls.
Why is everyone so nihilistic, but only in the short-term? To think success requires winning a zero-sum game, but forgetting that the winner is still a puny human in a meaningless universe.

Of course there are still achievements to strive towards. There are personal goals. There is the appreciation of your peers. There is social capital to convince others.

I think the countless grassroots movements stand as tribute to this. And not just open-source software, but countless online forums and communities dedicated to making the world a better place.

If your children have the best (as discussed above) opportunities thrust upon them, why must you spit in the face of good fortune, claiming your children would be better off if other children had fewer opportunities?

In such a theoretical and hopefully future society, I think power itself becomes much less consequential. What's the point of power if you have everything you want.

Or do you think if everyone's happy, they'll gladly follow some mad power-hungry lunatic into genocide just for shits and giggles?
"why is the largest single state transfer from the largest state by population to the second largest state by population" is perhaps not that surprising a result.
> Though, I still think it's a notable feat for a sixth grader to read and even somewhat comprehend Kant.

It is if nobody in his family is putting him up to it.

If a sixth grader plays Bach, but his parents don't know who that was, that's impressive. If he had lessons since age three, not so much.

> if they read some Kant and come up with that criticism.

I agree, but if they read something about Kant and cribbed the observation from that other author, or got it from talking about Kant with someone in their family who is into philosophy, then it's not the same.
Odd that suffering should be equated with evil. It seems an almost universal aspect of so many secular philosophies to elevate reduction of suffering over achievement or joy. Then again, maybe this is just a left leaning political view, which just happens to be associated with atheism in our day.
> It's not like anyone can actually do something about it and that's all that really matters.

In the long term they can, by using the US dollar less and less. Which is already happening. One day the US government will wake up unable to print money to pay for things from other countries, and the economy will collapse.
Don't people still have lunch?
Afaik libcurl is for clients only, but I also need to implement a server. Otherwise it sounds like exactly what I wish for from the governance perspective
Hmm...can/does an ecosystem exist without parasites?

Parasite meaning something taking more out of a system than giving back to it. Fear might not even be experienced or required or involved as with our gut parasites.
The rules of chess are small and well known. For example, rooks can't go diagonal no matter the situation. There's no need for epistemic humility.

Iowaska, lsd and even ketamine are one thing. These can be used in legitimate therapy and are not necessarily the signs of any problem if occasionally used responsibility.

Cocaine is not, and usually the hallmark of someone with a problem.
Unfortunately I feel like this style of thinking is all too common. When company leadership ^w^w job creators do something bad to the employees, the needs of the business are the shield for their accountability. When they use the company to do something bad to an outside party, suddenly the needs of those employees are the shield.
> But either he choose not to, or he did, the number not reflected in the government numbers

The data scientist doing Dash is underemployed and counted in the U6 numbers. Despite this, U6 numbers are well below historical averages.
But is this really true? In my experience, it's been less of a "come to Jesus" moment and more a slow process of hiring experienced folks who understand the appropriate privacy/security posture for a growing company.

Edit: I'm yet to experience (or see) it as a public breach of trust, especially when the company already has thousands of employees.
Pray tell: Xi issues? Which warlords?

Also if you have macOS you can check out my tool on the Mac App store (not free tho) as you asked about transcribing audio: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/wisprnote/id1671480366?mt=12

It uses whisper.cpp under the hood so I think you could definitely find a free one out there...somewhere :)

For summaries you could feed the output through ChatGPT! :)
>“They could be doing large-scale hypothesis generation with all this data, and then they could be feeding that data into Chinese pharmaceutical companies or Chinese weapons manufacturers.” -Eric Perakslis, former chief scientist for informatics at the FDA

Meanwhile, tech giants have the same kind of employees. Does Eric Perakslis say the same about Google possibly feeding data to US military to make weapons?
I agree with almost everything here, but this isn't what I'm referring to. What I hear ad nauseam is not that SEA/PDX/SFO are used Corollas but that they're Pintos with fire coming out the tail end. If what you're hearing from Republicans is "Seattle is an ok city but should have much lower taxes for the services they get" then I want to know what media you consume, so I can recommend it to my right-wing acquaintances.
nature says eat or be eaten(or die). now that we are on top of the food chain, it's useful, for mental health and societal reasons, not not want to rip every one's throat out, even thou every other species (including us) continues to do so. You tend to steer and veer towards what you look at. The good news is we get to choose what we look at... the bad news is we (statistically) choose wrong. Race car drivers don't look at the wall when they drive, because when they do, they tend to hit it. stop looking at the wall guys ...
The standard deviation is 15 IIRC. Mine was measured at 159 when I was young (according to my father) which amusingly is the same as Lisa Simpson's.
Don't forget how poorly he handled the harassment claims last year.

This is now a pattern.
That's fine, you do you, as long as you have no power to prevent others from sharing.
Also, in a business setting, RGB looks like it is not professional enough for serious processing.

Personally, I don't like the LEDs in my GPU. It's the only hardware I have with pointless colouring, but there was no option without it =)

'Bland' is also: not noisy and not distracting. I don't want the extra illumination, all I want to watch and focus on is in the computer display.
Firehose describes it well, some people are wordy and type a lot (I'm guilty) so maybe a comment character limit might improve readability?
When I was a child, there did not exist legally age restricted products in Germany. I do not know a single child who was harmed by the lack of regulation.

The world has become a crazy and disgusting shit.
Islam solves this very simply: evil (as in people doing bad things) is an unavoidable consequence of free will; you couldn't have both a world with no evil and a world with free will. Animals doing nasty stuff to each other is just nature, there's no good or evil about it, because animals don't have free will, they just follow their instincts. Calling the actions of a parasite evil just because it makes one feel icky has no basis in theology.
What the hell did I just read and how does this make it to the first page? It literally had no content other than "wasteful is good".
Nice call on the s3 alternative. Can it do signed URLs so that a customer can’t access another customer image or file?
https://archive.is/0vzGP
And it wasn't enough to stop them from hemorrhaging customers. People wanted bigger screens with more rich UX. Dedicating so much real estate to a physical keyboard still harmed a ton of apps considerably compared to the 3.5" screens on iPhones of the time.
I love it for doing small experiments in C++ (the kind where everything is a few hundred lines in a single file) with images too.
They used confidential information to figure out who to email and set the price. The breached the trust their customers put in them to keep their data private.

> Much of what Bezmenov said checks out and many of his predictions have come to pass

Just rationalisation. Society and culture is messy anyway so you could prove a bunch of predictions without them having any meaning. But I would say he was just predicting future trends that were already in motion and then imagining their efforts were moving the needle where in fact they achieved nothing of note.
> On the other hand, if you are selling these computers for about $6000 each

Though with inflation that would be more like $25K today, enough for two maxed-out Mac Pro machines.

> The third generation personal computers will be self-contained, complete, and essentially un-expandable. As we shall see, this strategy not only makes it possible to write complete software, but makes the hardware much cheaper and produceable. The kinds of options that do not give programmers nightmares are things like case color, kind of screen (so long as size, aspect ratio and resolution are unaffected), power supply and the model name.

> But will the average person's circle of acquaintances grow? Will we be better informed? Will a use of these computers as an entertainment medium become their primary value? Will they foster self-education? Is the designer of a personal computer system doing good or evil?

Yes, no, yes, no, both.
Not the OP but maybe they just leave it on all the time?
>Modern Catholicism also has no issues with evolution so generally the "life is infested with parasites and therefore can't be declared good like the Bible says" is a fundamentalist problem to try to explain. Evolution appears to be how life got to its present stage on Earth and we have the history encoded in our DNA. Arguing against that is embracing blind, stubborn faith and ignorance.

If only most Christians thought like that... I've grown around Christians of all kinds of denominations and I've never met anyone with that mindset, even the Catholic ones. They all took the Bible to the absolute literal and whenever reality didn't agree with their beliefs they always engaged in the most ridiculous and insane mental gymnastics instead of reevaluting their point of views.
This is about the worst written "beginner's companion". Not sure what the purpose is here.
DNS Toys (2022)
This is simply false. It has nothing at all to do with money or finite resources. It is purely a race and equity issue.

Our school district is wealthy. The average income of the parents is extremely high. They spend twice the state average on students because parents willingly donate extra money to the school direct. There is no shortage of money at all.

If they had asked for money hundreds of parents in our district could each have personally endowed the entire cost of those classes forever without even noticing the cost. Never mind the district as a whole. But it's not a money issue. They didn't want the money.

What there is, is a totally different idea of what equity is. That the final result of schooling must at all costs be equal by demographic standards. And if it's not, the problem is the immediate source of inequality.

This is happening in many states. Just look at the math reform in CA. It is insane. Water down the entire math curriculum in school because the outcomes are bad for some groups. This is not related to costs at all.

The solution is of course to spend more and offer far more support so that everyone does well. But that isn't even allowed to be an answer anymore.
It depends on the country. Some have unions for the military.
CU-SeeMe, hadn't thought about that in some time. I still have a T-Shirt they sent out as a prize for innovative applications (mine was an observer for autonomous robotics experiments)
Why the fuck not?
I watched your awesome presentation. I don’t recall the topic of sandboxing code execution. AutoGPT has the option to execute code in a Docker Container. Curious what you think of the scenario where an LLM is “tricked” to execute malicious code in a trusted env.
No, this is actually a dead serious observation. I do wonder though what was the satirical element you perceived, if you don't mind me asking.
That's about one person out of every 30,000. Not too incredibly unusual. 160 is 4-sigma. There are ten thousand people in the US like that. Probably several dozen here on HN.
I imagine such an ecosystem could exist for a short time, but the prevalence of parasitism also points out how viable it is as a kind of shortcut for life. Perhaps the more terrifying thing to consider is how many species were driven to extinction by parasites that were just a bit too aggressive in how they affected their host, which also would likely result in the parasite's extinction as well.

Life isn't a happy numbers game by any means.

Gated was hated for ages, received pies in his face and lost over 1 trillion by diversifying his portfolio.
There was an in-between time when both were available, and the market spoke.

There are a lot of very vocal niches. I got real excited when Apple put out the iPhone 12 mini, I even bought one. But the rest of the market said no, and now there is no more Mini-sized iPhone. We may be noisy, but our niche is not large enough to sustain the devices we want.

As a side note, there are still good Android phones with expandable storage, they just aren't made by Google or Samsung. Sony still makes them.
