getting inspired by visual art is more ok than its audio counterpart. mostly because audio is lower-dimensional somehow (melodies, riffs, sampling, beats, things are either recognizable or not at all.. well, not entirely, but in practice there are seemingly not that many things in this grey area, even when bands cite inspiration, the influence is sometimes not noticeable), of course maybe it's just a yet to be explored niche.

whereas visually copying style somehow is more possible and ok

I haven’t looked at TikTok streaming but it would make sense if this has risen strongly. Twitch’s biggest category became “just chatting”. This was always a category ripe for being stolen by someone else on its own. If TikTok streaming is rising, I’m wondering if they have eaten into the just charting category growth.

This is cool. And interesting, in that MoE+Transformers gets you a little bit of something for free on the training side, and a medium amount of something for free on the inference side -- seeing that MoE still gives those benefits with State space architectures is useful information; it looks like it's about twice as efficient in training time over non-MoE Mamba, according to the paper.

I don't understand Mamba's architecture well enough to predict much about it, but I do think we'll see significant exploration of MoE architectural ideas this year, and that will be cool!
The author commits a common fallacy that even finance professionals fall prey to: nominal rate fallacy.

Nominal rates do not matter. Real rates matter.

Price of risk is not a function of nominal interest rate. It is something that is in excess of interest rate.

Increase or decrease in interest rate just translates coordinates by a constant amount. Laws of motion do not change.
It had way more upvotes before and it was a link to magazine article. They merged a bunch of threads togethers and in the process nerfed it. I think the article had well over 100 upvotes maybe 200 upvotes.

Ah my mistake, I read that but thought that "not just written by myself" meant it was written by him with the LLM. I see now that this was not LLM augmented, it was the other post that was.

I do see some grammar errors still in the opening paragraphs of the LLM translated post on first look though...

For example: "Countless hours spent searching for documentation on peculiar, intellectually uninteresting aspects; the efforts to learn an overly complicated API, often without good reason; writing immediately usable programs that I would discard after a few hours."
The measure really is how many joules of energy is required to heat something a certain amount of joules.

By burning oil or converting electricity to heat, 1 joule of stored chemical or electrical energy converted to heat energy will raise the heat of that something by a maximum of 1 joule. A maximum of 100% efficiency.

By using 1 joule of energy to compress cold gas into warm gas, we can raise the heat of that something by 3-4 joules. Moving heat energy around is more efficient that generating heat energy. Commercially available technology 300%-400% efficient.

Its not the 'cultural value', but the learning value.

Natively understanding another language gives you access to a whole different information sphere. With different taboos and focuses. So topics completely undiscussable or unpolite in one language, is perfectly analyzed in another language. I've noticed the level of censorship significantly increasing on dominant English platforms (Say youtube), which is harder to see, if you can only speak English.

This makes it very easy to identify cultural shibboleths, disinfo or even just low-relevance/importance information.

However, this only works if you truly have native language levels in two languages. If you find it 'painful'/'difficult' to read the second language in any way, you'll avoid it outside of work, and therefore forfeit the advantage. This is also why even the inconvenience of translation will destroy this advantage.

Also, this requires the second language to be sufficiently distant from the first, while still being a large-population language.

So knowing Danish/Irish perfectly doesn't give you access to a whole different worldview.

This criteria is harsh, and for more entertainment/cultural value, LLM translation is basically good enough even for novels, there's no point in learning a foreign language at a low level anymore.
I work in copyright law.

Style is not subject to copyright, only expression. If there are unique lyrics and unique melodies under two bars then there is no copyright infringement.

A song that sounds like other pop songs is basically the very nature of pop music.

Pick a genre, for example reggae, and you’ll find a lot of perfectly legal songs that are almost indistinguishable aside from the musicians who are playing the music.

Running on VC money? AWS sounds like a terrible place to host your live streaming infrastructure unless cost is irrelevant
I thin calling it a subdevvision is already an overstatement I think it's not even that.

Amazone provides something like a "live streaming infrastructure service" which they sell to Twitch and others (including the competition like Kick).

For them buying Twitch was good as it allowed them to thoroughly test that service somewhat "in-house", have an initial customer for it to show what it can do etc.

But now that this is done for Amazone there is little value in Twitch, mainly:

- can it make profit (currently no)

- does it improve our image (surprisingly yes, a bit)

- does it allow us to sell more prime memberships (in the past for a short time yes, I don't think anymore)

- does it send bad signals if we shrink/close it now which could affect Amazone stock (somewhat, but if you slowly try to fix it show that you do and then if it doesn't work sell it probably no)

(parts in brackets are speculative)
Real rates are still probably near zero but they were negative before

For what it's worth, I prefer your non-LLM writing style.

The main problem is that either you compile a WASM binary or you serve a big language runtime (itself compiled to WASM) all the time: this is what you'd have to do if using C# or Java for example (maybe you can use TeaVM, but maybe you can't).

For some reason browsers didn't want to "balkanize the web" for the really good reason of supporting multiple languages, they wanted to do it for very petty reasons like WebMIDI or wildly differing implementations of LocalStorage (e.g. how much you can put in there), or non-overlapping support for video codecs, etc etc etc.
Can language models predict the next twist in a story?
Same, although, I'd really prefer it if I could just buy a game like this direct from the publisher since I don't use Steam, Gog, Itch, etc.

To be fair, I get why game devs want their product on those platforms, I just wish it was exclusive to said platforms.
twitch should focus on sports and esports, and not on fan-based communities which are so cringe with personalized emotes and whatnot. turbo should be cheaper for international audience. high-quality live video should be paid. everybody else should get pseudo-live video. it should make partnerships and deals both with gaming and sports companies (and platforms like Steam) and sports/e-sports event companies. they should also stop promoting amazon, it was very boring when every streamer was selling that amazon prime bullshit instead of giving me content. I would pay to watch twitch, but not monthly as I only care about a few events a year for the game I like to watch (counter-strike).

How to Find Clients as a Freelancer?

The case of duct work not being sufficient for a oil/gas -> heat pump conversion is pretty common. A heat pump, especially one of the conventional split types (non-minisplit) generally wants 300-400 CFM of airflow per ton. So, a 3 ton unit is happiest moving around 1200 CFM of air. Lower can cause issues with ice-up in AC mode or high pressure shutdown in heat mode.

There are rules of thumb for duct work that are pretty easy to use to estimate. A 6" round duct, for example, is designed for about 80 CFM (not counting any restrictions on the register/grille.) That 3 ton system is going to need 15 'takeoffs' of 6" duct to handle that air. Adding more duct work can be expensive if the majority of it isn't in unfinished locations like a basement or attic.
Wouldn't that be great? $20 would be a steal.
The one problem with this approach is that it gives one guy with a big GPU (or even an ASIC) a huge advantage over "casual" users (e.g. mobile web). You could perhaps make the gap smaller by using one of the "ASIC-resistant" mining algorithms?

By the way, for making more efficient mining algorithms, it would be nicer if the nonce is on the end of the message, aligned to a sha256 block. As is, it encourages someone to set the real nonce to a fixed value, and append their own garbage (for the text message version at least, I suppose for the other formats it doesn't matter).

Edit: it would appear that your current mining algorithm is pretty inefficient. I seemingly managed to out-hash everyone with just 32 leading zeroes, taking a few Python-CPU-minutes to find. To cement my place further, I spent a few GPU-minutes to find 40 leading zeroes.

The current "best hash in grid" has 28 leading zeroes. If we pessimistically take that as the average, and there are 2^10 pixels, it would take 2^38 work to flood the whole grid right now. If I spent my GPU-minutes on grid pixels rather than the text, I could have flooded the grid 4 times over.
Also as was seen in France this summer for instance, one of the interesting edge cases of water cooled reactors (really any generation that needs a lot of water) is that they can get basically thermally throttled e.g. the inlet water is too warm, you might be limited on how much water you can discharge to curtail affecting local ecology.

I guess it makes sense to me that the conditions that spike electric demand also stress generation and transmission, but I do find it astonishing how universal it is, solar/wind/hydro/nuclear included.

Send it in encrypted Morse code.

Probably illegal but Morse code is itself legal and who out there would even know if some doo-dah-dahs were in fact encrypted anyway?

But LoRa is the more legitimate long-range module for home made digital comms (encrypted) in any case. And should be easier to do.

Discoverability, content creators and community.

Live streaming is a second class citizen on youtube, and as such it is hidden under dropdowns, the live streams aren't always on the top of your followers, live recommendations are worse than useless and the big creators that move to youtube do like Ninja with Mixer, with a big fat paycheck to justify the loss of viewership and community.

Agree.

I think every camera manufacturer should implement auto blur on photos (legislate it).
Then an opt-in system unblurs the faces of the people that approve.

(Or just replace the faces with AI random faces instead of blur)

Point being, society has fallen into an opt-out system naturally - But I don't think there is good reason for it to be a necessary thing for the common good. I want privacy, and the tech is there to do it.

Manufacturers are meddling with raw images for proof of non-tampering, and if the horse has bolted there then I want my proposal above folded in at the same level.

Most streams with less then 100 viewers I have seen have maybe 1-2 gift subs when streaming 5 hours or so...

Through even on larger streams most gifts come from a relatively small number of people so there definitely are some outliers like you described but as far as I can tell they are the exception not the norm.

Nice straw man there. I wasn’t talking about the Mac App Store which is not even the target of anti-trust investigations. Macs allow you to install apps from anywhere.

It hasn't "been known", as there have never been any RCTs (and this is just a very small open-label trial). So we still have no idea whether or not this drug is actually of any use for PTSD or depression. We certainly can't that it "banishes PTSD" like the overhyped headline here says.

I remember all the studies on Ketamine that were posted to the front page of HN, and then we finally had a proper RCT which showed that, while ketamine was very effective in treating depression, the placebo was equally effective. Essentially it was hope that was resulting in the remission [1].
