> Good founders that know they’re not the right ones to lead the next phase of the business know when to step aside.

Part of making that happen is to make sure the founder has little economic handcuffs. Ie. if the company is wildly successful they should get a decent payout whoever is at the helm.
Thanks for the link, I hadn't read that paper yet.

One of the reasons not to just use the adversarial attack umbrella is that the defenses are likely to be dependent on specific scenarios. Normalization, sanitization, and putting up guardrails are all necessary but not sufficient depending on the attack.

It is also possible to layer attacks, so it would be good to be able to describe the different layers.
> you have to deep-dive into different frameworks, different tools that all do the same thing

You can also just choose one language/tool/framework and do _everything_ in it. I know this might get snubbed, but you can do almost anything these days with TypeScript. It can be as typed or dynamic as you want it (well sort of), plays well with UI/web/react, server with node, has pretty good performance these days, and you can even easily run CLI scripts with tsx. `#!/usr/bin/env tsx` (https://github.com/privatenumber/tsx)
For people who don't know them yet: use DDG bangs. For example "!m restaurant [citynmae]" will immediately bring you to Google maps, "!w chemistry" will open Wikipedia etc. Super easy and powerful :)

I don't understand why the market cap of a certain group of companies is correlated to the "AI bubble".

AI is just a tailwind for these fantastic companies (regardless of your opinion on how they make the money, they ARE fantastic companies, at least in the brutal capitalistic sense - they make a boat load of money!)

I mean these companies have been going up since the 90s. Obviously the author doesn't understand the geometric nature of markets - especially in the case of market leaders.
Mostly because that is where the high paying jobs are concentrated, after that I would guess family/familiarity. Politics would be lower on the list.

It's probably worth stressing that Open AI has a very unusual ownership and government structure that left Sam very vulnerable to this sort of board action - not just from a legal point of view, but from a fundamental conflict of interest one. After all, being the CEO of the SaaS offering with the fastest growing revenue ever (AFAIK) is inherently in conflict with a board that still believes its running a non-profit organisation.

Having said that, there are any number of examples, from Uber's Travis Kalanick to Andrew Mason (Groupon), Jerry Yang (Yahoo) to - probably most famously - Steve Jobs from Apple.

For founders, there's only really two ways to absolutely ensure to stay in control:

- Retain 50%+1 of the business

- Decouple monetary ownership from voting rights by having multiple share classes, then ensure you own 50% of the voting rights class

It might also be helpful to:

- Be indispensable. This should be a given if you're the founder/CEO, but if you feel there's a potential revolt brewing, there's some Machiavellian stuff you can do, e.g. by ensuring only you personally have some key relationships or- as Adam Newman at WeWork showed - by e.g. personally owning a lot of the real estate. (Not that that helped in the long run)

- Play board politics. Ensure that you control (on a social and relationship level) a fraction of the board that adds up to 50%+

But ultimately, there's a different question: Yes, it's your baby and of course you should be the first one to run it. But why does your board think you shouldn't? Removing a Founder-CEO comes with very high risk, makes the VC fund look bad (if your board is composed of VCs) and will bring a lot of chaos to the company. So - what's so problematic about you that people feel compelled to consider it? Or maybe there's nothing problematic per se, but you're a great product-market-fit finder and growth CEO, but now it's a large company and it requires another set of talents? Would it really be so bad to do the Google/Eric Schmidt playbook and let someone else run things while you do what you enjoy the most, e.g. heading product? Or become an executive chair person that spends most of their days travelling between Tuscan vineyards?

Well, for starters why do you need to carry water upstairs? What's wrong with tap water? I drink tap water all the time and only get carbonated mineral water in bottles.

I recall reading some story about a German traveler some century and more ago who was visiting London and was amazed by how people were tricked into buying bottled water when there was perfectly good tap water available at the turn of a knob.
I could do that, but the question is specifically how to find a company which will take me.

Viewing copyrighted materials is basically never the problem. When we read The Verge we aren’t redistributing any of their content. We are doing exactly what they are granting a limited license to do: read the articles and use them for non-commercial purposes.

See section 14 of The Verge’s terms of use as an example: https://www.voxmedia.com/legal/terms-of-use

Free use can only override some of this: for example, I can use content from The Verge if I’m using a limited percentage of it for the purpose of critique and discussion. This application of fair use is basically the for-profit business model of YouTube channels like WatchMojo, which use small clips of movies and TV along with commentary and critique. Without that commentary or without limiting their redistribution to small portions of the work, they would be breaking copyright law.

The problem is redistribution of a substantial portion of the work. The NYT has allegedly found some very damning instances where ChatGPT provided answers containing substantial almost unchanged portions of text directly copied from NYT articles. NYT never granted ChatGPT any license to redistribute their content for commercial purposes, and it doesn’t seem like ChatGPT is doing anything covered by fair use (such as providing discussion or commentary).

I’m not aware of any part of copyright law that gives an infringing party a pass just because someone pressured them into infringement.
>I drink 3-4L a day

I dont want to doubt you but from my own experience that seems insane. Is there a medical/enviromental reason for? Do you take salt tablets as well?

I drink a single glass of water in the morning, 200ml and I have a .7L glass bottle because I dislike the way plastic tastes. But thats a hard maximum that I could tolerate drinking.

I've also had blood tests done that do not show any dehydration in the slightest so I'm just curious why/how anyone could drink that much water without poisoning themselves.

That's a good analogy, actually. If it actually worked, it'd be fine to call it a "full self-driving car" even if it had a manual steering wheel option. Just like this prototype aircraft!

The problem with FSD isn't the fact that it also has a steering wheel, it's that it can't actually meaningfully function without the steering wheel.

This implies that there are good leaders at scale. I doubt this. So far all I have seen is that a good company gets built, and professional milkers come in. That is, they professionally milk the structure that is built, bring in their similar friends, bloat the company to pad their resume, and then leave before things start going downhill from the pretend-growth. I say this in full seriousness.

That was 20 years ago. In another video, John says ~8 billion LOC, which seems more a accurate.

ASML is a system integrator. I presume that those numbers include 3rd party SW, and offline tooling and modeling SW.

There was higher margins on cell phones in the 90s. Then the cell phone companies decided to bring that in house, and all the third party cell phone sellers died. Radio Shack had a good solid but low growth business in all those components. They pivoted to cell phones on the strength of "you don't understand these complex cell phones, but we are the nerds that do", and did great until that business died and they had no backup. If they had continued to sell those components they would probably still be around, but they wouldn't have been nearly as profitable in the 1990s.

There are enough people who would like to have a local store for things like resisters (at 10x the street price if you mail order), 3d printer filament and other "nerd hobby" toys to support a new radio shack type store in most every city. However getting such a store started would be difficult.

>Apple stands to benefit significantly as soon as they put base models for transcription, text generation, image generation, etc behind apis so their developers can leverage the latest improvements

ok but most companies stand to benefit significantly as soon as they do things that are beneficial to their bottom line that they have not yet managed to do. Sure AI is probably totally a thing that they will do and benefit from but it seems like they have wanted to do and benefit without success for a long time now.
"unlabeled icons (often without even tooltips)"

The worst software I worked with in this regard was CATIA V5. It had not only hundreds of little icons in the UI, but they were also used in the documentation. The manual regularly said things like "Todo X first click [], then [] and finally go to [] to do []."

This is from the very first versions of V5, so many years ago, and hopefully has improved.

The good jobs are there. And if you have a good job you can live in a nice neighbourhood that doesn't have to worry about this stuff while benefiting from all the cheap labour that comes from having lots of poor people around – cheap restaurants, affordable delivery services, cheap taxis, etc.

It's win win if you avoid the bad areas and the bad areas don't grow too large. SF failed because its underclass grew too large and they stopped arresting the criminals among them. Now the people with the nice jobs in the nice houses don't want to live there because they increasingly need to live among the poor.
I think the exact opposite is true.

The more you play with these tools, the more you realize that they are not nearly as robust as they need to be to have a significant impact on society. We need much more reliability.

We will undoubtedly continue to see new generative AI tools rolling out, but I think the end result is going to be a lot less disruptive than many claimed when ChatGPT was initially released.

Of course if there is exponential improvement all bets are off, but we have had nearly a year of stagnation where GPT-4 hasn’t been beaten. This year we’ll see if this is an actual ceiling.

>The advent of commenting did mitigate the lonesomeness of independent blogging. Then social media sapped away much of that social energy, returning blogging to its natural state of solitude. Bloggers can try to nurture community, but it's a hard task. Maybe the advent of reader-funded blogging will re-energise the practice. I hope it will.

Web blogging was fragmented across independent web sites, Blogger and walled gardens like Tumblr, Medium and Twitter and it couldn't thrive on all of them and at the end it didn't thrive on any of them. The best solution is open web and that is independent web sites. Open web provides you freedom to customize whatever you want and you can play with Atom, RSS, comments section etc. Some people are not tech savvy enough to blog but Blogger seems like a good solution because it is easy to use and it is open but unfortunately Google didn't invest in it for years and will probably shut it down sooner or later.
You can apply that logic to literally anything Google thinks up. Google writes something in a spec and no matter how stupid, insecure, or privacy violating it is, by this logic Apple is now falling behind and holding the web back because all it would take to make it a standard is for Apple to do what Google wants. Why are you so keen to hand the web platform entirely over to Google?
Well, there is certainly PR and a push for heat pumps .. as a means of addressing climate change. You can even read that in these articles you keep dismissing.

Whatever you think about about AI it is often important to understand the sentiments driving broad stock movements and when they turn..

The state of SF is sad to see. I remember as a child when it was so much nicer. Today it’s just depressing to see how bad it’s gotten. We’re not used to seeing nice cities become not nice cities. In my lifetime in other parts of the country the norm has been seeing not nice areas becoming nice areas.

On iOS you can thankfully override it (the alert dialog lets you do it) in case of an emergency - which is pretty handy if you’ve had the phone in the pool/shower and really need to charge it and don’t have a blow dryer to hand.

> > The thing many founders struggle to comprehend when taking on outside capital is that there comes a point fairly early on when it’s not really your company anymore

That's why Venture Capital has an history of about 25 years, whereas debt has a history of 10,000 years.

Business is a very abstract thing, not very limbic at all, and thus it's only fun when you can call the shots, otherwise it becomes a boat where you steer left and nothing happens, you steer right and nothing happens, basically every sailor's nightmare.

With debt you get to steer the boat whatever and however you like, but if you don't make it in time to the next port of call the bank repossesses it, that's a much better proposition, concentrating the politics solely in the moments where you close the loan and then after it you are free to do whatever the fuck you want and in the worst case scenario you declare bankruptcy.
Oh, yes, I was aware that R (and its predecessor S) have a native dataframe object in the language.

> Like yes, if its Friday afternoon, and you need parts urgently for your weekend project, then you can go there. But otherwise you get better choice for less money online.

Yep, agreed. But online has its own problems... Amazon is full of shit with zero supply chain control, including safety-relevant stuff like fuses [1], or stuff secretly dropshipped from China or grey-imported from the UK or shipped from Poland with way more than a day of lead time. eBay is even worse.

Bürklin is good but they do take their while to ship because they don't have an insane volume deal with DHL.

And all of online is useless if you have stuff like weird connectors you need to find a matching mate or want to make sure <component> physically fits, or want to find a component that fits. No problem at Conrad, a huge and annoying hassle with online.

In the BQN compiler I'd write (⊂¯1++⍀m)⌷(m←c=LF)⌿ as the equivalent of (⊂⌈⍀m×⍳≢m←c=LF)⌷ using the function IT (indices-times but it also includes the ⌈⍀). Although I'm not sure it's inherently faster. Most of the cost is in selection, and there's an algorithm taking a shuffle of a sliding window from the right argument that would work better with the denser indices. And those indices have a smaller type which may be useful. The annoying thing is that this whole set-and-hold operation could be implemented in SIMD directly and none of those complications would apply. But it's pretty hard to expose in a nice way without just providing a builtin.

Exactly, same thought. Actually I would expect, that they trained each expert separately and later together, since you need to train the router network as well. I'm far from an expert in LLMs. But this would be interesting to know, especially how different training setups influence the performance.
This is a really interesting idea, thanks.
That's where I feel like it's actually pretty nice to not have CI tied to your source code. It's probably more expensive to use Travis/Circle but at least you don't have a single point of failure for deploys.
