Yeah, Phi-2 is weird on chat, StableLM beats it on some metrics, Phi-2 does on others but also doesn't really have system integration yet.

The base model of StableLM 3b zephyr is actually under an even more permissive license (we didn't change in retrospect) and is the best base to train on for MacBooks with 8gb RAM, edge devices etc.

With LLM Farm quantised you can run it faster than you can read on a iPhone or whatever.

I had an uncle by marriage receive multiple inheritances totalling over 600k.

Each and every time he lost that inheritance - every penny - to the same guy.

After all that, he had eaten 0 bites of humble pie and still acted like the smartest guy in the room. Living in a trailer because he was too dumb to know when people were scamming him.

The scary thing? I have met even dumber people than him (although rarely as annoying).
I'm in no way defending Apple's stance, but this is a misrepresentation.

They're only demanding a cut if the lead resulting in an external sales comes from the App.

If you market your app on a website and sell there, you don't have to pay Apple anything. If you market inside the appstore, attract leads there and sell, you have to pay Apple.

There are not enough cats on the internet. We are working to fix this.
You are missing the point. Israel physically withdrew from Gaza unilaterally, without any agreement, without any negotiation. It simply withdrew its forces and moved its people out of there at huge cost. Subsequently, the expectation was that the security situation would improve. Had that happened, then you could talk about airspace, waters, etc. But that did not happen, the opposite happened. Israel's security worsened as a result of the withdrawal. Hamas has been firing rockets at Israel for 17 years now. The blockade happened not because Israel woke up one day and for no reason other than its own amusement ( and apparently Egypt too ) and decided to blockade. The blockade happened because a terrorist organization which is dedicated to destruction of Israel took over and at that point, Israel and Egypt had very little choice other than blockade Hamas.
Alleging that blockade did not happen in response to Hamas is just flat out false. Did Egypt also blockade Gaza for no reason whatsoever? Come on, this is just absurd argumentation.
I oddly enough had the exact same thought!

Why do you like it better than having a cashier ring you up?

Me: I don't have to scan, check I've scanned everything, enter the number of bags, put groceries in those bags. Instead I put my stuff on the belt, I pay and walk out w the groceries--and the cashier is a pro at scanning and bagging, whereas I am not.

Plus, it's not like these stores are going to pass along the labor savings to us. They'll just pocket the difference.
Pedantic: A flipflop and a latch are different, but similar.

Latches are set high or low whenever the corresponding input is pressed.

Flipflops are edge-triggered, and in most setups only change at a clock cycle. One way to construct a flipflop is by wiring several latches together - see figure 11 of this pdf: https://www.cs.ucr.edu/~ehwang/courses/cs120b/flipflops.pdf

This move by Apple is likely to serve as a deterrent for other technology companies thinking of ways to minimize Apple's commission on in-app purchases. When some business analyst points out how many millions the company might save by shifting payments away from Apple's network, the legal analyst will nip it in the bud by citing this example of potential litigation costs.
I spent almost the entire first decade of my career being uncomfortable at how...unenthused? I was to solve business problems. I now have landed on this; technical aspects of a problem aren't enough for me to give a shit about what I do at work. It's a means to an end. My current role has interesting technical problems but the product means nothing to me, I think I'm going to take a hefty paycut for my next role if only to just have some sort of emotional investment in my work.

It seems you have more information about this situation than I do, as I recently took on the role of project maintainer and wasn't involved from the start.

I find the bug you mentioned interesting, and I'll promptly investigate to determine if it still exists. If I remember correctly, there's a --dpi option that may have already resolved this issue.

I share your concern about the code's state; it's problematic as it's currently leaking file descriptors and memory all over the place. We experimented with Puppeteer as an alternative, but its speed and memory usage were too high for our specific use case, so we're currently stuck with the current wkhtmltopdf.

I'm from the area, so I feel I might be qualified to give you an answer. The short story is that some people here do still speak dialects of French [1]. The number of native speakers is rapidly declining (and will soon diminish completely), but many residents of Louisiana have grandparents or other family members who did grow up speaking it exclusively (or more commonly now, grew up speaking it with their exclusively-French-speaking parents/grandparents).

There are probably several reasons that it has held on for so long here, but predominantly it's because of multiple waves of influx of French-speakers (from when Louisiana was owned by the French, then from people of the Acadia region of Canada who were forced out of their region and migrated here in the mid-18th century) combined with persistent poverty resulting in poor education and low travel into and out of Louisiana (so not a lot of mixing with the rest of the US).

I for one am looking forward to LLM-based super-decompilers that can recognize assembly patterns and understand what the high level intent was. Suddenly there would be a wealth of effectively open-source code (with the hope that it wouldn't change much about SaSS-ifying things since that's mostly already done where the market will bear it).

The US military just spent 20 years in Afghanistan, a landlocked country on the other side of the world with little economic value, and only left because our politicians chose to leave. We could have afforded another 20 years easily with hardly a blemish on our economy or military readiness for other conflicts. Finally accepting the fact that Afghanistan had very little strategic value to the US was hardly a military defeat.

Climate deniers are not a political body with any weight, capital interests are. We aren't taking as much precaution because the 71% of carbon emissions refuse to do anything about it. They aren't run by climate deniers because they withheld reports that explained it.
I think I’d prefer a response that didn’t take a side, but presented the various perspectives.
This plus not everyone wants to talk about it multiple times. Saying "no" can be tough without a fallback.
That's really thorough and unfortunate. I hadn't heard about all of that.

I had a committee interview there maybe 8 years ago and already that was such an impersonal feeling that I really disliked my experience and didn't continue, not that they'd have hired me in the end.

I had 2 referrals for the team I wanted to join and I thought I'd be interviewing with that teams members who knew me from various foss projects or at least knew of the projects. When I heard it was by committee my anxiety went through the roof.

I hope things improve for everyone.

That's fair. We get numerous reports from script kiddies reporting "vulnerabilities" that aren't, because they don't understand the tool that they're running, or the output that it produces, or why it isn't relevant. It's possible that they catch a known issue, but the reality is that the majority have no idea what they're doing.

> Beverly Center mall for example has oil wells hidden on site

That's fascinating to read about. It sounds like all the drilling for that oil field happens from that one location now? They use angled bores to draw from different parts of the field.
How the system was intended to function is only relevant to the mistakenness of the popular conception of its ethical obligations insofar as that conception does (or should) rely on beliefs about that founding intent. Generally, it does not: it's moral intuition—and when that intuition has lined up so well with the realpolitiks for most of our lifetimes, I strain to see the argument it should, either.
Representing something abstract like value with physical objects like shells, gold, paper, or bits is absolutely a technology. It has caught on to the point where it's completely assumed, like internet connectivity, but it's not a "social construct" like whatever's in fashion this year. It's part of our technological infrastructure; it's not something that's going to evaporate next year.

None of this means OP has grounds to argue for economic totalitarianism.
Especially at a time when everyone is caterwauling about "inflation" (and rightfully so) but very few are talking about the REAL cause: monopoly/oligopoly and straight-up price-gouging. We have what, four meat processors in the USA, and after whining about a "labor shortage" they reported 90% profit increases. NINETY PERCENT.

Meanwhile, the Fed fecklessly raises interest rates over and over, refusing to acknowledge that it didn't work because the conventional economics-textbook wisdom that money supply dictates inflation wasn't the biggest factor here.

Not to get into a wider political debate, but the Biden administration's (and the Democrats') failure to call out the fleecing of America by monopolies represents their limp or nonexistent messaging overall. And when it costs them the White House, it will cost us all a lot more than expensive meat.
Exactly this, along with a lot of the "smoothing-out" done by the webgpu spec which provides a clear and open abstraction target.
How did the Cray-style vectors work out?
Not parent, but: yes! All such restrictive practices are wrong.

Rust as a pure language perhaps not, but Rust as an ecosystem, has a standard UEFI alloc/dealloc system: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/library/std/sr...

One could, of course, write their own allocator and heap tracking system as part of the UEFI firmware, or reimplement the entire thing without any of the standard library and simply relying on the core library, but if you want to deal with fallibility, you'll have to reimplement every part of the language toolkit and use Option<> or Result<> for every API call, which would only complicate the rewrite more.
Not in its entirety, but these are some of the more helpful "global" non-default rules I employ on some of my "more restrictive" / "less advertising" / "less tracking" PiHoles DNS resolvers:

Hello!

Thanks for checking out the alpha. I am a little excited for my first query on this so bear with me.

In terms of positioning this is not meant to compete with any of the existing social platforms but it offers a set of unique features that set it apart from what exists, like distributed governance, constant verification of accounts and content, no ads means no noise and on top of that the way I have envisioned this and the way the roadmap is being worked on, relies on the platform establishing its own global independent network accessible to anyone on the planet. Think of it like a second internet but solely dedicated for (verified) human to human communication. The platform will run two versions, one that runs on regular old internet and a second that stays active if access to the primary network is hindered for any reason (you can hop on either). No other platform offers this nor do they want to because it is an extremely ambitious undertaking.

If I was to sum up the purpose of dygres: Provide access to unlimited communication to anyone on the planet with or without internet access and enable them to make a true living off the platform then hand every verified user voting rights.

Bonus: Add a use case scenario for cryptocurrency.

Per your second query, the MVP is a spartan build because of budget and dev constraints so for now it mimics the functionality of existing platforms for familiarities sake. My approach for this stemmed from my need to understand web development and test my initial thesis of building an MVP and then iterating from there. Future versions of dygres will not look or function the way the alpha does as there will be layers that will allow granular control of the way content is published whether its informative or general entertainment. This granular control will also allow you to create what I think will be the most valuable following on any platform that exists.
> The fact that schools fail to teach it is their defect.

Of course it is not a defect to teach the subject matter of the degree.

Teaching programming is also a perfectly nice skill to teach, but it's not computer science.

You wouldn't enroll in mechanical engineering and complain they don't teach how to change oil in your car.

However, equivalently, if you do study mechanical engineering and aerodynamics, you could then go into a career in car mechanics where you can get much farther (e.g. Formula 1 car development) than if you studied only fixing cars at a trade school.

The problem with this field is that software engineering and computer science and trade-school level programming all get conflated when they are distinct but related fields. Maybe it will take many more decades of maturing before the field sorts these out properly, such as has already happened in more mature fields that have been around for centuries.
Speaking both as one of the most vocal defenders of Apple on these threads and as someone who writes those defenses on a Linux machine and an Android phone, I'd respectfully ask that you not post baseless insinuation of astroturfing.
