Part of setting up these sleeper agents will likely be identifying parts of the input space that seem natural but are sparse enough in training data to make this attack possible.
Exactly. We wanted MIT, but we were infected by the GPLv2 due to the QEMU dependency.
So we licensed each file under MIT, but GPLv2 as a whole.

QEMU does something similar:

Scandinavians know there is some truth to it. But it has more to do with what you say and do. You can DO amazing things but you are not allowed to brag about it. This is better than bragging but not doing which is very common in certain places.

But this mentality has basically vanished from the main cities in the last three decades because marketing is a competitive field, and you need all the tools in the toolbox to not get eaten alive.
Another AI doomsayers with little understanding of threats

> You could ask them to design a more deadly coronavirus, provide instructions for making a bomb, make naked pictures of your favorite actor, or write a series of inflammatory text messages designed to make voters in swing states more angry about immigration. You will likely receive polite refusals to all such requests because they violate the usage policies of these AI systems.

You can do all of these with Google search and Photoshop today. AIs are trained with data from Internet, ergo they can only do things you can already find in Internet today.

Or the author understands this precisely and the article is just fearmongering for shareholder interests and regulatory capture.

I did engineering at Cambridge and they had the best solution to this problem: fill in the gaps notes.

It might sound crazy but it has none of the downsides of no-notes or ready-made-notes.

* you have to pay attention and turn up otherwise you end up with useless notes, so it still has the motivation factor of no-notes

* you don't spend all your time copying so it doesn't suffer from the "I wrote it all down but I didn't listen to a word" factor of no-notes
It's not obvious these are React components.
I assume RAM will also be a major constraint for on device ML; most Macs still default to 8GB (with absurd bumps in price to upgrade) so I'd guess some very high percentage of Macs sold in last 2 years are going to be quite bad for any major new software stuff Apple release in 2024. That is assuming they even are supported at all; if Apple follow their iPhone playbook they might just release the new stuff on late 2024 Macs.
Looks like another attempt of regulatory capture by Big Tech
Are you gaslighting on purpose?
Tried raycast but realised you can’t customise the GUI the way you can with Alfred – I have Alfred set up so it only takes up a minimal amount of space in the top corner of the screen (ala Spotlight pre-Yosemite).

Submitted feedback to the team but they were pretty dismissive about it.
This is hardly evidence Twitter is "awash" with OpenAI spam since by the bold text you can see he specifically searched that phrase and yet only showed three responses.
Kent is an amazing guy! Met him a year+ ago at a friend's house and was fantastic to discuss the initial idea he had around this book, which was based on tons of experience at various engineering firms. He has been posting parts of chapters or thoughts in his newsletter for a while now - so it's awesome to see it compiled in one place!

According to recent reports, at least Russia is launching glide bombs from airplanes on a daily basis. They don’t do it over frontlines though, so not much footage available.
To be exact @ch33zer is asking for "a preferred method for building simple sites that look good"
Or that the session ticket verification flow needs connectivity between the game server and Valve's (apparently very slow at times) auth server.

Presumably a faster and more robust solution would be for the Steam client to obtain (and hang onto) a signed token (from Valve) with a lifetime of a few hours, and whenever you connect to a game server that token is sent over where it can be validated locally against a public cert issued by Valve (that comes distributed with the game server contents).
Yes. If you think about it, the individual is being subjected to a man in the middle attack, cleaving a creator from their creation via the use of consent agreements for providing a platform. Rent seeking.
AI is great at parsing and classification. Use it in a specific feature in our product that would be impossible to do with manual regex/parsing - saves hundreds of man hours a year.

It’s also been immensely useful for software development work - I find myself reaching for AI over docs more often these days due to its ability to understand context.
I got the fan whine on my Mac Studio M1 Max, but it has been such a long time that I have almost grown accustomed to it.
A lot has changed since then but they had techniques to identify the listeners as early as the 50s

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_RAFTER

Having said that there isn’t really anything special about this particular technique of using numbers stations. It’s just a part of the same trick to pass along information via an open channel without having to give away what the message is about or who the intended audience is supposed to be.

Taking out an ad in the classifieds section of a newspaper is ultimately the same trick just with a much lower bandwidth to transmit anything useful beyond a simple signal.
Correct, your incremented function pointer won't be caught -- but now we're really getting down to the parts-per-million of programs that use this. Demoscene code, sometimes, maybe?

I would say W^X protection will protect you from all non-adversarial programs.
Can you show pictures or something of what you mean? I can’t find any mention of what you describe, and it would surprise me greatly to encounter a point light source rather than a distant light source, partly because of how fiendishly complicated it makes implementation (including just being impossible on the web), and partly just because we’re mostly used to distant light sources for illumination.
Sure, but with a system like this you still need to build for reusability of a rocket - if not then even a smaller rocket will be more expensive than what SpaceX is planning to do with Starship.

And if you're building a fully reusable rocket system, then neither size nor fuel matter as much as the simplicity and reliability of launch and landing. And here traditional rocket systems will win on Earth.

On Mars or Moon, with less gravity and atmosphere these systems will be more feasible though since they can possibly launch into orbit without rocket boosters.
May family pro-bono
The facts support the reason ( 0 sales), although there are nuances ( timeframe - 4,5 months)

There's also a lot of missing context.

- what happened in those 3 opportunities that she tried to close a deal

- perhaps she's missing a technical background to actually close a deal, since Cloudflare is a very technical product

No one from us knows the details, so it's speculation.

4,5 months is still a bit fast though. Getting a new employee up to speed takes 6 months in a lot of cases.

But mostly you know it sooner when it wouldn't work out.
The data is not the technology.
Bark to text interface
From the "Accordion" component:

> Is it accessible? Yes. It adheres to the WAI-ARIA design patterns.

I've only checked the Tab component (as one of the more complex one from accessibility perspective), but the WAI-ARIA patterns are well implemented.

However, WAI-ARIA patterns are a necessary but not a sufficient condition. E.g., the Tab component has _detectable_ issues, i.e., run Lightroom in Chrome and you will find some problems (like contrast ratio issues). Finally, a manual test is necessary, which will show things like the insufficient focus ring in the "New York" style.

I've updated my post, where I compare different UI libraries on a subset of accessibility criteria, to include shadcn: https://darekkay.com/blog/accessible-ui-frameworks/
You could replace "AI model" with "computer". With an "unsecured computer" you could write a virus, or design a detonator switch for a bomb, or publish copyrighted material. Clearly we need to limit the sale of unsecured computers and estaplish liabilities for manufacturers whose customers enguage in these actions.
I love this.
I tried doing sub-pixel simulation for a tool I created (screenstab.com if anyone’s interested – yeah I know, shameless plug, etc.). I ended up abandoning the sub-pixel aspect in my shader because of the distracting patterns caused by the Moire effect.
We wanted to have a demo on our website where you could upload your binary and run it in the browser recompiling to WASM. Feasible, but not a negligible amount of work.

About macOS: we can lift any binary for any platform, but we can recompile to an executable only programs for Linux. The reason for this is that the QEMU user mode only supports running Linux on Linux.

It would be, in principle, possible to add support for macOS user mode (there's a half dead FreeBSD user mode), but it's quite some work.

Windows would be almost impossible: in Windows, the compatibility layer for user applications (i.e., the boundary where Microsoft tells you that things will stay the same in the future) is not the boundary between the user space and the kernel (as it is in Linux) but the system DLLs. So QEMU should become KERNEL32.dll-aware, which would be weird and very different from the current design of QEMU user mode.

This said, if you have a dynamic binary that does not perform any syscall (if not through other dynamic libraries), something can be worked out.
Does this require everyone to be on the platform to get any value?
Article mentions it's open-source. On Github, it's at

Yeah pretty much but it's sign in with Linkedin so ez onboarding
On iOS things are even shadier, since iOS didn't allow apps to use the dynamic linker until iOS 8(?), and you have to pay Apple $100 for the priviledge of deploying the resulting app on your own device...
Why Are More Boys Than Girls Retarded in School? (1928)
I would recommend reading up on FDR's tenure before casting stones.
there was one like code.tv or something. but i think they went under.
Unsecured != open source. And neither are actually the same as the traditional definition of open source software, right?
Maybe because there are hundreds or thousands of compounds that can be produced during fermentation, higher alcohols, toxins, flavonoids, aminos, besides ethanol. It’s such a complicated biological process. Especially under home brewing conditions where many variables are not as closely controlled, sanitized, or monitored. Generally there are far more chemicals in fermented beverages, some toxic and carcinogenic to varying degrees. Many relatively harmless or even healthy too.
Thanks! There's a credits link in the footer which lists out all the authors of the sounds (mostly from freesound.org and the Free Music Archive under CC-BY or CC0 licenses). For the music I dig through stuff tagged ambient. I'd like to expand the music selection a lot more, and maybe have something radio-y too

The binaural beats I made for someone who asked for them in these comments and the shipping forecast is one track of me reading a made-up (but structurally accurate, I think) forecast in my best Radio 4 voice :)
This turns it off but it does not disable the ways it shows itself as asking to turn it back on via gestures, or in other menus and applications.

They'll talk to legal for the follow up meeting and present the specific case to them.

To see what's allowed/possible, even if it gets recorded.
When someone flashes a knife and mentions $racist_slur -- or in the case of Israel, actually just arbitrarily kills people, turns off their water, blows up civilian buildings after posing for selfies, making all these sick videos playing with the children's toys of displaced or killed Palestinian families, attacks refugee camps even in the West Bank, just rips up roads, tears down shops with bulldozers, hands out weapons to utterly deranged settlers -- and then talks 5 hours about how they're a fan of African Americans or whoever they slurred, how much they like rap... you don't weigh these things against these other.

What could be weighed against it could be protest against and prosecution of the genocidal statements and actions. Nothing else, not ever.

There still are Israelis with conscience who are against this. But they're in the minority, as shown by Israelis demonstrating in front of the house of Ofer Cassir, tearing up a Palestinian flag with a scissor, grinning from ear to ear -- the first member of the Knesset they want to expel for supporting having this brought before the ICJ.

And there is the translate button. We can translate audio, too. Everybody speaks Hebrew. And whatever change in tune from here on out, while not changing the actions, will not change what Israel showed the world. Just like cutting off Internet access to Gaza will not make the world forget about Gaza.

But since we will simply not agree on this anyway, I want to ask, did you march with "Free Palestine", or with Palestinians? As in, in those 20 years, did you make Palestinian friends? If so, what are they saying?
Because the state of news sites on the English web in 2024 is that they’re ad-infested garbage experiences that introduce themselves by begging for your email address and requesting permission to set tracking cookies, or they’re paywalled, or they do all of the above!

You can aggregate as much shit as you want but unless you’re using it to manufacture fertilizer it’s still just shit, and that’s before even going into the content of what passes as news nowadays.

Yeah, parliament is sovereign, the checks and balances are (meant to be) internal to parliament.

That may break down a bit with modern parties and modern elections, I guess we will see if these systems still work in another couple of hundred years.
Not being in the house?

If the elites can't play nicely with each other it is not my problem. I don't trust them.
To say it can't “tell me what I just wrote” is to say it can't copy parts of the context.

We know it can copy parts of the context and the system prompt while a special part of the context isn't immune to being copied.

You can test it yourself by adding random strings to the system prompt, you can consistently have the model copy them over. Is that not enough to have a reasonable belief that the model can copy system prompt instructions in the web interface?
Debugging a Bit-Flip Error
> "Memberships" in IEEE

If it has not changed recently, memberships in IEEE are just a matter of paying the fee.

There is also the issue of authors having to transfer copyright to IEEE.

Yet you have to distinguish between IEEE conferences and IEEE standard bodies. I was briefly involved in the latter and I met great people.
Yeah this is bs. Two complete strangers telling you you're getting fired and they don't know any of the background on why her specifically. I assume the decisions on individuals were made higher up and maybe they just let the newest employees go. But then I don't get why they don't just say that. Or why they don't tell her manager and have him tell her. Really shitty process.
You can already do that with QEMU: https://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation

However, the code we emit is faster than the one emitted by QEMU.
We have a secret plan to use LLVM in QEMU as a tier 2 JIT engine to optimize hot code paths more aggressively.
This has already been done, but never upstreamed.

Adding an on-disk cache would also be quite useful.
Some of those removed features are quite bizarre.

> Managing a stopwatch on Smart Displays and Speakers. You can still set timers and alarms.

You already have a clock app, probably based on the standard Android one, and how many commands are for stopwatches?

> Using your voice to send an email, video or audio message. You can still make calls and send text messages.

What’s the big difference between sending a text message to a phone number via the messaging app, and sending an email via the Gmail app? It’s probably a single API call with a few parameters.

> Rescheduling an event in Google Calendar with your voice. You can still schedule a new event.

In this particular case a fair bit of noise was made when it was introduced; namely - the UI hiding the URI scheme. It started in Chrome.

All the noise was summarily ignored, “because we know better”.

We need more browser diversity.
Early Christianity was just a mob running around which did great damage to anyone that didn't stand with them.

Fast forward more than a thousand years to the multiple crusades.

Today we can say that Christianity has mostly calmed down, but it took basically 2000 years.
Most people seem to be able to recall memories with some imagery and with some effort explore an object / space with imagery.

It's not vivid like a dream though, and doesn't have that 1st-personness either.
We don't know specifics.

If she's doing all the things she should do ( as she mentions), but lacks technical knowledge for a technical product.

Than if she asks feedback, she'll get points for the effort.

But concerning technical knowledge, there's not much to do in a short period to get an employee profitable in a lot of cases. Definitely with a product like Cloudflare.

And saying you lack basic knowledge, is very hard to do/fix. Because the knowledge is not solely Cloudflare related. It's development, website, networking, ... There's a difficult gray area on what training someone needs for technical things.

Even if the employee is motivated. They won't be profitable within a year.

Where to start? Where does it end?
I'm not saying it is his motivation in particular, but if we look forward a few years I'm pretty sure a lot of people will be trying to get the LLMs to recommend their products. It's a fairly natural extension of SEO.

There are two things you want it to say. That if someone has problem X they need a Y. And that if they are getting a Y, the best brand for that is Z. The latter of the two might be screened out with some simple rules, but the first one I doubt will be possible.
LLM function calling. Fine tune or use context free grammars, what is better?
I wish there was some research on this. I'm using local models for function calling and often the most capable models (like mixtral 7x8) answer really complex questions correctly and then make a typo or a silly error like trying to escape an underscore in json variable name fields (sometimes twice). Lowering parameters fixes it mostly, but also causes the model to be a lot less capable.

So I became interested in improving the basic function calling by using context free grammars. The question is, is it a waste of time? Is the model going to loose its best capabilities by being forced into this kind of format "artificially"?
No unknowns when it comes to the "what the team should keep doing" box.
I'm creating a website that allows professionals like web developers, engineers, architects, ecc... To create a personal portfolio based on connected stories instead of a simple showcase of experiences and projects.

Take a look: https://www.my-portfolio.it/

The main goal of this project is to allow these people to narrate their journey in clear and complete articles.
In my perspective, professionals frequently engage in intricate projects demanding profound expertise across various facets of their field.

During these projects, professionals often discover interesting details that are crucial for success but are not easy to showcase in a typical portfolio. Allowing them to share multiple stories about the same project helps convey these details without losing clarity in the overall narrative.

An example is my profile, in which I also talked about this exact project (myportfolio).
You can read the stories I started to write here:
https://www.my-portfolio.it/users/roberto-dellantonio/diary/...

---

A little premise:
This project started as an academical experiment to help me understand better the microservices architecture in software development.
During the development of the project, I started thinking that it actually may be useful for real people. So I never really validated the idea, but I now have this sort of MVP that I'm currently using as my personal portfolio.

I'd love to hear some feedback about the overall idea and about the current look and usability of the website.
Thank you very much :)
That's cool, but 200k is pretty low. Also 10ms with logn and indexes hot in memory should be able to sort through a billion or so index keys at least
It works for me, but it takes a second for the page to render properly. I think its the LaTeX (mathjax) causing the page to recalculate text positioning in some inefficient manner, but someone more familiar with webdev can probably answer better.
