> "But, due to California law, Apple cannot prevent developers from informing consumers that lower prices are available outside of the app."

Is this CA law enforceable because Apple is HQ in CA, or simply because they do business there?

- if simply due to operating business there, couldn't Apple geofence the entire state and only allow developers the option to steer consumers who are using their app within CA state lines?

- if it's simply because Apple is HQ in CA, couldn't Apple simply move it's HQ (on paper) to another US state (like Texas, where a lot of other tech companies have moved HQs)
The conclusion is that we don’t know and therefore it might be coincidental. Hardly satisfying.

Has anyone tried starting with a smaller modeling, then RLing until it improves to the bigger model?
Of the three links you posted:

1. States things like "Finding goals that are extinction-level bad and relatively useful appears to be easy: for example, advanced AI with the sole objective ‘increase company.com revenue’ might be highly valuable to company.com for a time, but risks longer term harms to society, if powerfully accruing resources and power toward this end with no regard for ethics beyond laws that are still too expensive to break." But even current-gen LLMs sidestep this pretty easily, and if you ask them to increase e.g. revenue, they do not propose extinction-level events or propose eschewing basic ethics. This argument falls apart upon contact with reality.

2. Is a 57-page PDF of subjectively-defined risks where it gives up on generalized paperclip-maximizing as a threat, but instead proposes narrower "power-seeking" as an unaligned threat that will lead to doom. It presents little evidence that language models will likely attempt to become power-seeking in the real world other than a (non-language-model) reinforcement learning experiment conducted by OpenAI in which an AI was trained to be good at a game that required controlling blocks, and the AI then attempted to control the blocks. It is possible I missed something in the 57 pages, but once it defines power-seeking as a supposed likely existential risk, it seemed to jump straight into proposals on attempted mitigations.

3. Requires accepting that we will by default build a misaligned superhuman AI that will cause humanity to go extinct as the basic premises of the argument (P1-P3), which makes the conclusions not particularly convincing if you don't already believe that.
i think you might want to check your claim about this being a worldwide phenomenon but then it might hurt your personal beliefs and you might be seen as intolerant for pushing your ideas into the people you claim to protect and you will end up being like a colonizer. right?

Artistic Credit Assignment: Using Cameras vs. Using GenAI Models
Very curious about the credit assignment practices in our society. Usually photograph credits are assigned to the photographer who took the picture instead of Canon or Nikon. In contrast, when a picture produced by a human prompting the GenAI models, credit is usually assigned to the model making company such as Midjourney, DallE or Stability. What is governing this behavior? Or did photography also go through a moment where camera companies got the credit for the pictures produced?

Why engage with nearly 200 years of copyright jurisprudence when you can just insist you are right because anime?
Well, yes and no. PID is very simple to integrate in a state loop, so it is simple to implement, and gives the illusion of imperfect tracking very quickly. So I imagine this implementation worked rather well. Because the imperfectness isn't random noise, but it is a model of someone trying to aim something, and they do it imperfectly.

Generally though, It would be pretty trivial to add noise for this stuff. You would probably want some noise on the orientation if you wanted to model more of a camera shake. Perlin noise is my go to if I want to introduce randomness to positions really quickly.
> That’s nothing new to memorize, because you already have to know what elements are allowed in that context. E.g., even in XHTML served with an XML MIME type and parsed with an XML parser, <p><p></p></p> is invalid XHTML, because <p> can’t contain <p>. I already have to know that rule when writing a webpage! Knowing that <p><p> is equivalent to <p></p><p> doesn’t require higher mental overhead.

"It's no extra effort to memorize this piece of random trivia, because it's already implied by this other piece of random trivial that you already have to memorize" doesn't actually make it any better. I don't want to remember any of this stuff! And with Markdown I don't have to.

(1) means that taxes, the legal and justice systems, much of the public education system, criticism, begging on the street, and protest are all unethical, among I'm sure many others. Not to suggest you believe they are- I'm sure that you can present very strong arguments for some or all of these- but that makes it much less simple and leaves room for debate about whether this situation is also an exception.
The social pressure to "be interesting" is one of the factors that I think leads to a lot of our collective misery. I think the problem is one of scale - if you're not engaging with other people because they don't share your interests, you may be hanging out with the wrong people, but you may not have a choice. You may be required to hang out with them because they are co-workers, neighbors, etc. - members of communities to which you may belong but may not have willingly chosen (i.e. if you're lucky enough to have been able to choose your job and your position and the team you work with, you are in a very fortunate minority).

So much of our self worth is wrapped up in "being important" or "being interesting". We don't ask the question enough, "To whom"? As someone else mentioned here, you should be important to the communities you have explicitly chosen and built - your wife and kids, the friends you choose to keep in your life, etc. If they find you interesting and important, that really ought to be enough for just about all of us. I do feel like an awful lot of this pressure to be interesting stems from people who have not cultivated such communities of choice and are left with a dire need to feel important to anyone who will pay attention to them. It's a sickness that I think a lot of people have been able to muster into the wrong kind of attention building, which makes it seems better than it is (e.g. parasocial relationships through social media, etc.)

All of this is to say: Are you happy? Do the people who matter to you find you interesting and fun to be around? Focus on them and be happy. Our lives are enriched by the people we let into them. So long as everyone in our circles are well fed, well loved, and well rested - ourselves included - we can find peace and happiness. Excitement means different things to different people - you'll never catch me bungee jumping, but I get a rush when a delicious meal I had planned turns out exactly as I intended. Find what excites you, surround yourself with people who love and appreciate you - and whom you love and appreciate in return - and work toward your own sense of happiness without the judgement of the chattering classes.
That's the future of AI art - but is AI art the future of art? if AI artists can't maintain any profit from their work, how are they going to afford the compute time?
Generally I’ve found that the biggest causes of performance issues are network latency and missing database indexes.

Slow laptops for developers test neither of those scenarios!

The solution is to use network emulators that can buffer packets and simulate latency. (Or just put servers in a remote cloud region instead of the local LAN.)

For databases, the trick is to give developers a slow database server with full-sized data. Don’t use empty databases (schema only) during development!

I’m curious to see what devs do.

On the one hand Apple payments are really frictionless. There is no way 3rd parties can match it. Plus easy to track/cancel.

On the other hand a lower price is a lower price. But is it low enough to get enough users to enter a credit card?

Combine this with the alternate App Store thing (looks like EU only) and we’re in for some shaking out of what is and is not a good strategy as an app maker with never before seen on iPhone options in the mix.

I only do numeric computation, I don’t work in machine learning. Sorry your assumptions are incorrect, maybe it’s best not to assume or attack. I didn’t exactly advise using fast math either, I asked for reasoning and pointed out that most casual uses of float aren’t highly sensitive to precision.

It’s easy to have wrong sums and catastrophic cancellation without fast math, and it’s relatively rare for fast math to cause those issues when an underlying issue didn’t already exist.

I’ve been working in some code that does a couple of quadratic solves and has high order intermediate terms, and I’ve tried using Kahan’s algorithm repeatedly to improve the precision of the discriminants, but it has never helped at all. On the other hand I’ve used a few other tricks that improve the precision enough that the fast math version is higher precision than the naive one without fast math. I get to have my cake and eat it too.

Fast math is a tradeoff. Of course it’s a good idea to know what it does and what the risks of using it are, but at least in terms of the accuracy of fast math in CUDA, it’s not an opinion whether the accuracy is relatively close to slow math, it’s reasonably well documented. You can see for yourself that most fast math ops are in the single digit ulps of rounding error. https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-c-programming-guide/index....
But at those higher orbits, the size of the antenna necessary to get sufficient directionality gets waaaaaay bigger right?
I've been writing software for a long time in many different types of languages. I've led many software teams for a long time that use different languages and tech stacks. I have not seen any measurable difference in productivity or defect rate across different languages. I have also looked at all of the research on this and it is inconclusive at best.

Ultimately, I think that choice of language is one of the least significant predictors of outcomes, yet it's one of the most debated and obsessed over.

Edit: I thought it would be helpful to give examples of what I think is more important. Good CI/CD practives, good observability, robust test and staging environments, etc have been far more important in my experience than static vs dynamic language choice.
Abstract:

SARS-CoV-2-related pangolin coronavirus GX_P2V(short_3UTR) can cause 100% mortality in human ACE2-transgenic mice, potentially attributable to late-stage brain infection. This underscores a spillover risk of GX_P2V into humans and provides a unique model for understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2-related viruses.
> Apple’s cert petition at the Supreme Court was basically the argument that’s it’s unfair that a lawsuit from one developer would prevent its anti-steerage language from adhering to any developer.

Regardless of the legality around this, I just don't get that kind of thinking. So anyone who wants to be able to exercise their legal right would have to, individually (or as a class, I guess) take Apple to court over this?

That would actually be kinda fun, now that I think about it. Apple getting hit with thousands of lawsuits over the same thing, all of them settled case law, having to spend all that money on lawyers and court fees.

This reminds me of a dumb quirk of Italian law. Italy offers citizenship to non-citizen foreigners who can prove an unbroken line of citizenship back to their most recent Italian ancestor who was an Italian citizen. (It's more complicated than that and there are some rules and caveats, but that's the basic idea.) There's a super-misogynistic part of that law that says citizenship cannot be passed through female ancestors prior to 1948. The Italian Supreme Court has ruled that part of the law unconstitutional. But the law is still on the books, and Italy's legislature has not updated it to remove the unconstitutional language, so anyone who wants to use that route to get citizenship has to go to court to do so. It's such a waste of everyone's time and money (well, the lawyers, as usual, make out quite well: a slam-dunk case for them that takes very little effort).

There is no single correct answer. The answers posted can all be correct and they'll certainly help the people who ask these perennial questions since the question will show up on search results.

> these usually acted like clickbait, farming for reputation to gain access to moderation tools.

The reputation problem is solved by turning it into a community wiki so that votes won't be counted towards reputation. At least it used to be solved that way. Do those still exist? I wrote the posts on mobile and didn't see the usual "turn this into a community wiki" checkbox. I assumed they got rid of it. They've gotten rid of a lot of things over the years, I didn't really keep track.

Nothing you said explains why the post was deleted. They could've closed and locked it to prevent additional answers and voting if it's so problematic. They went the extra mile and completely trashed the answer I wrote. They trashed the efforts of other people who wrote helpful comments with references to additional papers on optimizations. Those comments taught me new stuff. They just deleted all of it. I discovered they had deleted the question because I tried to find those references and couldn't.

I can handle closures, downvotes, rude comments, even insults. Wikipedia style deletionism though? Yeah, that makes me think twice before posting anything there.
