Exactly. Thinking "I use, works for me, so whatever" is very shortsighted, if it falls even more on usage, we can expect more and more websites to not even bother to test.

People will use whatever comes by default on Android (which is Chrome or Samsung Internet [which is Chrome]), Safari on iOS and Chrome/Edge on Windows. Plus Windows has been very pushy about Edge.
Validating and updating memory is an interesting problem with an LLM.

Is it true that the next iteration of GPT is being trained with artificial data and that data is being validated by GPT-3.5?

That LLMs may hallucinate but when prompted are actually pretty good at knowing when a conclusion is wrong?
This was Ubuntu 20.04 so maybe things have changed, but slow startup (calculators should open instantly), forced auto-update (yay Firefox forcing me to restart in the middle of doing something) were the egregious ones.
Youre being disingenuous if thats how you interpreted my comment. Of course there are changes, and as someone who does significant research on plane variants, I know that more than most.

But it doesn’t take a genius to see that in this particular case, there is no evidence (at least none provided in the article, nor none that I’m aware of) that the 7 is different from the 8 or 9 in regards to how the engine icing system works (or doesn’t, in this case).
During the last MAX fiasco, I said to someone that if there is a button you have to push every five minutes for the plane not to explode, then failing to do so would be “pilot error”, instead of a gross design failure. It turns out this is not a joke…
I've tried this before - it works for games that don't go out of their way to add more than the baseline level of protection offered by Steam (which, I think, is most of them).

It's easy to test, just exit Steam and try to launch the game (.exe) with Goldberg installed. If Steam doesn't open, it's working.
Bluey is entertaining, and my kids like watching it. However, we've noticed that the behavior of the kids (pups) on the show is a bit contagious...and our little one has started mimicking some of the kids' bad behavior/sayings. This is a very big change from her normal personality, so we're yanking Bluey from the rotation in favor of Daniel Tiger and other similar shows. YMMV, of course, but for us the entertainment value is outweighed by the negative impact on behavior.
Not sure why you're putting the word country in quotes - it is a country.

As for dual citizenship, it might be large, but it's still estimated at only 10% if the population. And that includes lots of people with citizenship in countries that they have no connection to at all.

It's not just cultural. We've evolved to recognize eye-contact. Newborn babies immediately know when you look at them. Eye contact with a dog communicates dominance.

You've just acclimated to losing that signal during video chats. Bring it back, and you'll have a richer experience.

More generally, we have evolved special neural hardware to recognize gaze, with a special case for when gaze is directed at our eyes. Gaze is important because it's a sign of where people are attending. And as Herb Simon said: "in the information age, attention is the scarce resource."
The controversy in the Catholic Church is that the Second Vatican Council ushered in many, many pervasive changes to the liturgy. First and foremost is the move to the vernacular from uniform use of Latin. The vernacular liturgy means that there are hundreds of different texts requiring musical settings and they all require their own linguistic expert composers to handle that. Vernacular hymns also lend themselves to regional and profane instrumentation, so the use of guitars, tambourines, flutes, autoharps, rockstar drums and bass really took off with these reforms.

In principle, the Catholic Church doesn't object to a particular type of instrument being used for sacred music, as long as the text is sacred and the instrument is not overtly profane. BUT she still exhorts us to give "pride of place" to certain classical styles of sacred music, the Latin language, and the pipe organ itself. That's still non-negotiable, but really falls by the wayside when you consider restrictions on budget and talent. There are not that many professional-volunteer organists or Gregorian-chant schola directors to go around.

So the reality is that any church that did have a bona fide pipe organ, or even a good electronic one, these gathered dust while people slung their acoustic guitars and tambourines around while playing music that's indistinguishable from Simon & Garfunkel. I mean it didn't necessarily get that bad, but we did practically abandon those classical styles in favor of new vernacular experimentation.

In practice, Catholic parishes exhibit a wide disparity of musical style, and this will be tuned by the liturgists and pastors according to the needs and tastes of their faithful. Many pastors find it advantageous to mix Latin, classical, a cappella, and modern CCM all in the same liturgy, or some will segregate it out so that Traditionalists can enjoy a liturgy dedicated to traditional music, singing, and instrumentation.

What are the implications of constructing brand-new traditional pipe organs in our two "flagship" churches? What does it mean that our previous bishop wrote down a series of four documents on the form and function of sacred music? Regionally, they have set the tone and established a legacy for decades to come. Pastors may do what they like, but Cathedral worship is often the "Gold Standard" for a diocese to imitate and promote.

At the very least, constructing a permanent pipe organ in a church is a capital investment that can't be easily shoved aside. The pastors and parish councils will indeed be very reluctant to sideline something that cost 5-6 figures in favor of "easier" music.

This attitude is the problem. Drugs are an easy trigger for those experiences and feelings that avoid all the self work humans are meant to do that would give them BETTER and more intense versions of the same feelings without any of the downsides. You don't need drugs to have highs and psychedelic experiences.
It's true though.

The FDA almost certainly has at least a dozen folks much smarter than the user calling them 'clueless'.

And all regulated organizations, in total, certainly have many hundreds much smarter responding to the FDA.

While I agree with PG that this outcome should be jarring and force Americans to consider why our country has taken the positions it has, I think we also have to interrogate the resolution. What does a right to self-determination mean? Who gets to be a 'people'? If such a group is not unanimous in what they want, what does self-determination at the group level mean? When multiple such groups attempt to 'self-determine' in ways which are clearly in conflict, what does it mean for the international community to recognize such a general right?
"Minimum equipment list" - notably, that's used to allow a certified plane to fly with some temporary reductions in operable equipment, rather than to allow a design to proceed through certification with known defects.

the novelty is how to handle such scale.

Sure, if we build a million rockets it'll be cheaper, but how do we USE those rockets and get funding at "relative peace time". SpaceX's real innovation was starlink in allowing it to "Soak up" excess production. Besides the obvious of reusability, which wasn't that "Obvious" considering the temperatures of reentry.
That's because its never heavy handed.. How about the episode with grandpa struggling with the new app centric lifestyle: Phones "Are you sure we're playing this right?". Subtly provocative and brilliantly done.
Yes, it sounds to me like that’s the issue too, but I disagree with it.

Either the mitigation is acceptable to make the plane safe to fly, or it’s not. “Well this one already existed before we knew about the issue, whereas this one is new” doesn’t actually change the risk calculus nor the effectiveness of the mitigation.
Not only does Google let you root Pixels, but they don't appear to be interested in interfering with GrapheneOS, which is specifically for Pixels and lets you run all of the google stuff in userspace so that it has to ask your permission before doing things.

Google is plenty evil in their own ways, but they're at least not anti-tinkering.

It is, but how much time do you want to commit to setting it up "just right"? I don't like it because the defaults are so authoritarian -- if it can be proscribed it is -- one of the few times that Python beats Ruby hands-down, pycodestyle/pep8 is a linting Amsterdam to RuboCop's North Korea.
I assume if you’re on HN you work in tech.

As a side hustle, why don’t you start building and selling desktop PC’s to local businesses, competing with HP, Dell, etc on margin? That’s also tech, right?

While building cheap PCs at razor thin margins is adjacent to whatever your tech job is, and probably something you’re able to do, it probably wouldn’t be the most profitable use of your time
Yeah, I've read in the past some busts of big drug submarines, but I think having some small drone subs would make much more sense:

1. Unlike air drones, relatively small sub drones would be much more difficult to spot and intercept. The ocean is already filled with a lot of stuff like fish, so it seems like it would be relatively easy to camouflage.

2. One lost drone is a relatively small loss vs. having a big sub get intercepted and lose millions worth of product.

3. Now sure how big of a battery you'd need. Curious how long, say, a 2 mile long swim by a small sub would require in kWh.
This is exactly what I started postulating on about 5 years ago… that eventually, transformers working through a REPL with access to a vector-store could likely lead to AGI. Of course, I didn’t predict the LLM/multimodal explosion, but I’ve been thinking along these same lines for a while now. My current direction is a multiagent MOE working into a single REPL with a supervisory transformer that manifests intent through the management of agent delegation and response filtering /regeneration to stay on context.

Nope, it stands out among kids shows, which are typically a wasteland of formulaic stories that amount to nothing and require no introspective thinking.

Just because 7 is similar to 8 and 9 doesn't mean it has to get the same treatment. This isn't algebra or logic. By induction, having allowed it for 8 means that the FAA has to allow it for all plans from here on out? 1, 2, infinity.

Oof. This should be more like a media key than a required key. I view it like a "Volume up/down" key, it's nice but not essential. Although it's probably much less useful than a volume key.
Many such thinking architectures are probably possible. The hard part is learning a good representation of the world and all its constituents, without which none of these thinking architectures are possible. What's exciting about LLMs is that they are approaching this learned representation. There are already people attempting to build AGI (or less ambitiously, task automation) on top of LLMs with projects like BabyAGI and AutoGPT.

I think it will be hard to say apriori which thinking architecture will work better, because this will also depend on the properties of the learned embedding or representation of the world. We don't need to model how the human mind works.
Humans have very tiny working memories, but a computer could have a much larger working memory. Human recall is very quick and the concept map is very robust, whereas I would image the learned representations won't be as good and the recall to be a bottleneck. But all of this is running ahead of ourselves. What we need are even better world models or representations of reality than what the current LLMs can produce, either by modifying transformers or by moving to better architectures.
Thanks for this valuable information! Didn’t know about that suit.

Hmm. I can see a sort of a connection there. I wish there was some way for the Little Man (collectively) to object to Content ID’s undue process. DMCA takedowns say that in the case of a counternotice, platform must reinstate the content “within 10–14 business days” unless the copyright owner files suit. Content ID, on the other hand, gives no recourse—all you can do is file a dispute which is adjudicated exclusively by the claimer, who by your action initiating a dispute is granted power to Strike you with fire and brimstone (where the third strike will probably cause the termination of your Google account).

It does happen though - Qt tries very hard to do that. I don't know about literally everything, but the majority of platform-specific features/optimizations can be exposed through Qt with enough work.

And what is the result? Everyone complains that Qt is too hard to use, and so it has utterly lost the cross-platform war to Electron, and meanwhile the devs who want the platform-native functionality (like the OP of the article) use the OS-native toolchains instead.

There's no silver bullet here.
Boeing really wants to cut corners, and it's gonna take a really long time to fully bite them in the ass, because of their effective monopoly on US produced jets.
