Thinking about this a little, it's not clear to me that AI would have a problem with death. We seem unnecessarily asymmetric, caring a lot about our ego not existing in the future when we hardly consider that it already didn't exist for a very long time in the past, but that's probably evolutionary due to the embodiment?

There's a lot of debate around remote work vs In-office work. Many companies have started opening offices and forcing employees to come back in the name of productivity but I feel people are more productive at home with some discipline and better practices.

Remote work has many challenges. We're a startup (16 employees) so the challenges differ from the challenges faced by big tech companies.

I think there’s no right or wrong answer here. Either option has pros and cons. With In-person office work, it is hard to go into a focussed more, there are many distractions, commute takes away a lot of time & energy, etc.

While remote working requires a lot of self-discipline, it is very easy to get dragged into many work chores, hard to communicate with fellow teammates, and some folks also do moonlighting which is against many company policies.

We follow certain practices to make our remote setup work and it has worked beautifully so far So I think remote work is here to stay and many startups can adopt remote work to be more efficient, and move fast.
I replied with this already to another sibling comment raising the same issue:

> I think he simply meant that Java was marketed and therefore prospered as a counter to Microsoft's dominance more generally.

i.e. ".NET" being used casually (and incorrectly) as a catch-all for anything Microsoft was doing in this space roughly around that period ...possibly suggests there's been an anti-M$ bias!
Therefore, everything you already know is intuitive. Oh wait, does that mean that intuitive is not a property of this proposal but of the reader and the proposal? Ergo, it is almost useless to ask whether some programming language feature is intuitive or not.
Frontpage was notoriously horrible. It'd make pages that usually looked the way people wanted them to, but the source was a total mess. It was full of redundant and unnecessary tags. You could spend ages cleaning up HTML written in frontpage but if you put in the work you could decrease pageload times and file sizes significantly. Personally, I avoided it at all costs and stuck to text editors. Frontpage was so terrible that it made me resist using Dreamweaver at first out of fear that it'd be just as bad.
My experience working on rustc_codegen_clr – half a year retrospective
I would argue that the weights are as much source code as source code. Them being generated doesn't demote them.

I don't even think the distinction is important. The "system" should be open, and that includes data central to the system's operation within certain bounds.

You can open source parts of a system at whichever fine slice you wish, you just have the part which is open A and the part which isn't B.

It's the value of A and B being open that matters, not what A and B are composed of.
What is the benefit?

Ollama already exposes REST API that you can query with whatever language (or you know, just using curl) - why do I want to use Python or JS?
I remember 2 brief glorious moments of time when everything just worked, and internet and computer speeds was ahead of web designers.

1. When I switched from modem to ADSL I was amazed how fast the web could be. I think I spent most of the first day just clicking around and watching how everything loaded instantly

Then the web designers and product managers caught up and started slowing down the web with larger ads and autoplaying (Flash) videos.

2. When I switched from ADSL to fiber, both my computer and internet was fast enough to counter the crappy parts of a web site and I experienced joy again.

Then SPA became the default web site and things started loading slowly again with placeholders and loading indicators.

Now that we are moving back to SSR I see a slow return to a more snappy web, all though web designers and product managers will surely find ways to counter this too.

Are you sure? There's some pretty stiff competition even in IE4: VRML was incredible, as were Tclets.

Seriously web technology has mostly gone backwards since then. CSS has needed multiple revisions to reach the point where on a good day it can barely match what you could do in HTML3. <video> is a worse <embed>.

> Sounds like you still see ChatGPT as a bad thing in some way.

Not really, it can be a useful tool, I'm not ready to just delegate all my code writing to it and no professional developer should either.

You're talking about using raw SQL because it's "closer to the metal" (it isn't really), but then really you're just using ChatGPT to write your code so in a way, you're much further removed from the metal than framework developers.

If I had to choose between an OS written in C++ by skilled humans vs an OS written in ASM (because it's 'closer to the metal') by someone who had ChatGPT write most of the code and "checked" it, I know which I'd choose.

That is completely correct. What I had seen, however, was that the translator left out whole details for no apparent reason. That the protagonist feeds the cat before saying good night to his kid. Stuff like that. My guess is that the translator simply overlooked that sentence. And I’m surprised that nobody noticed during editing.

If they have separate infra for IPv6 (but why?) and it's undersized compared to IPv4, it would totally make sense to observe that.
> You're talking about discouraging people from having children, which is (relatively) easy. There's yet to be a government that's figured out how to make any parent want to waste 18 years of their life raising a child that they don't otherwise want. You can't punish someone into raising a kid.

Almost everyone wants to have children if the conditions are right; the handful of misanthropes who don't are irrelevant. The reasons people choose not to are things that are eminently addressable by a government; risk that it will damage their career, fear they won't be able to support their children materially, or that they'll make damaging mistakes when raising them.
On my 32G M2 Pro Mac, I can run up to about 30B models using 4 bit quantization. It is fast unless I am generating a lot of text. If I ask a 30B model to generate 5 pages of text it can take over 1 minute. Running smaller models like Mistral 7B is very fast.

Install Ollama from https://ollama.ai and experiment with it using the command line interface. I mostly use Ollama’s local API from Common Lisp or Racket - so simple to do.

EDIT: if you only have 8G RAM, try some of the 3B models. I suggest using at least 4 bit quantization.

> All emotions are by definition impulsive and irrational and thus hasty and stupid

That isn't true. Emotions are usually rational, and may or may not be swift. Consider greed - it can be harnessed to power long-term plans, as can be seen when looking at the economy. And that is hardly cherry picking, we're surrounded by examples and it is foundational to the theory of why it all works. Consider someone saving up money to buy a fancy car. That might be a decision powered by love; is probably powered by greed and it seems a stretch to say people would do that because they were really angry with the world.

Anger doesn't have the same staying power as positive emotions, or more neutral emotions like greed.

> You are cherry picking.

You may note I'm explicitly asking Mr. matthewmacleod to cherry pick.
> tiny six-point font

I remember it more as a "eight-point" font and its multiple (next ideal being 16-point).

Not in the 90s, but in the early 2000s, I reaped Pixel Fonts' benefit to its fullest. Besides using it as part of the graphics and later sliced for HTML, I used it to render many elements of Apps/programs for Pocket PC devices -- iPAQ[1]. Even though the devices were small, they were handheld and usually used closer to the eyes than desktops, and the pixel fonts were ideal size to give enough spacing and clarity to buttons and even for the smaller text that goes in the mandatory legal writings that need to go with the programs used by Healthcare professionals.

I was lucky to be involved in creating a few such programs for physicians and clinics, making them really happy users. I remember that positioning other fonts (I think, system fonts, etc) was hard to maintain and turned out blurry when deployed to these devices. The Pixel Fonts were crisp and clear when re-aligned after calculating either an even or an odd pixel placement.

It was my second job and first Internet/Web-related Job. My boss was super happy that he spent money on my suggested items, which were repaid repeatedly.

Actually, I wish we allocated more money to biology and understanding the living rather than bullshit technology that literally is destroying the world (which is an observable fact).

Sure, but in terms of priority about "made up" results, I would first look at all those damn startups that literally make up results in order to get VC money.
It's probably worth saying that ~10% differences in BLAS performance are probably lost in the noise of run time variance on an HPC system, especially as things don't typically spend most of their time in BLAS. Also, you don't have licence issues with BLIS and OpenBLAS. For instance when I last looked at cp2k, a major materials science copyleft application, it didn't have a licence exception for linking with MKL.

> DHTML, which stands for “distributed HTML”

"Dynamic", I think; not "distributed".
Speaking in the context of thinkers like Harris this is the reason why awareness is differentiated from consciousness. Consciousness is the ability to grasp the world "out there". Awareness is the blank canvas where consciousness is experienced. The analogy here is a movie projected onto a movie screen. Consciousness is the movie being played. The screen is the blank space of experience where the movie is projected. I think the confusion is there is no logically consistent differentiation of concepts like intelligence, consciousness, awareness in the sciences and they end up being used interchangeably.

The OP may have – unwillingly and unwittingly – become a part of the SaaS product's testing team. This happens more often that people realize.

Behind the scenes, SaaS can be a shit show: Customer files a ticket => SaaS devs cannot reproduce (or don't bother to reproduce) but fix the presumed bug maybe => a new SaaS release => notify customer to upgrade, close their ticket => wait for response from the customer to see if the fix helped. Rinse & repeat, act aloof. Pretend it's the customer's fault all along.

Yes, although The Egg ultimately presumes separation of consciousness at some "higher level" given that there is a dialogue between such consciousnesses. My greater sense of loneliness comes from a sense that the very premise of a separation of consciousness exists as a deliberate goal of our universe, which was made by a "God" who is actually all of us, as a means to keep myself/ourself company and to introduce love. Sort of like we are all branches of the same tree. But people talk about having epiphanies about this as if it is a good thing that we are all the same, leading to a connectedness. But it also leads to loneliness.

Sorry for the dump.
Well China still sees itself as a developing country, and would make up about 30% of CO2, so it all depends on definitions and international agreement.
I vote for M61s on automatic turrets with movement detection, on every carriage, alternating left-right. Pedestrians shot at railroad crossings is but a small, yet acceptable, price to pay for the safe transport of packages.

As the system will be expensive, it will have to be state-subsidized, of course. At the end of the day, the parcels services are providing an essential service of first necessity, and it would only make sense that everything is done at a national level to ensure they are functioning correctly.

And why stop there? We could also ask defense contractors to design specialized trains. On top of absolute safety, it will have the added benefit of creating good job opportunities!
On the subject of installing Ollama, I found it to be a frustrating and user-hostile experience. I instead recommend the much more user-friendly LLM[0] by Simon Willison.

Among the problems with Ollama include:

* Ollama silently adds a login item with no way to opt out: <https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama/issues/162>

* Ollama spawns at least four processes, some persistently in the background: 1 x Ollama application, 1 x `ollama` server component, 2 x Ollama Helper

* Ollama provides no information at install time about what directories will be created or where models will be downloaded.

* Ollama prompts users to install the `ollama` CLI tool, with admin access required, with no way to cancel, and with no way to even quit the application at that point. Ollama provides no clarity that about what is actually happening during this step: all it is doing is symlinking `/Applications/Ollama.app/Contents/Resources/ollama` to `/usr/local/bin/`

The worst part is that not only is none of this explained at install time, but the project README doesn’t tell you any of this information either. Potential users deserve to know what will happen on first launch, but when a PR arrived to at least provide that clarification in the README, Ollama maintainers summarily closed that PR and still have not rectified the aforementioned UX problems.

As an open source maintainer myself, I understand and appreciate that Ollama developers volunteer their time and energy into the project, and they can run it as they see fit. So I intend no disrespect. But these problems, and a seeming unwillingness to prioritize their resolution, caused me to delete Ollama from my system entirely.

As I said above, I think LLM[0] by Simon Willison is an excellent and user-friendly alternative.

>From the vendor side, if they make their money from one-off licenses, the economics just don’t pan out over the long term. The incentives become for them to spend all their energy on endlessly expanding market share so they can sell to new users, and/or churning out paid upgrades and add-ons to sell to their existing buyers. There is no financial incentive to work on code quality, bug fixes, or other sustainability considerations.

This is pretty telling that the author can only imagine a business model where one makes a single product and collects rent on it for eternity. The "long term economics" of selling products is that you then go on to make other products and make money on them.
I meant to say that they have the same root - you can think of consciousness as (collective) intelligence put to use in a particular domain: the self, or the "what it is like to be". If certain basic units of the collective intelligence contribute to that sense of self, you can get consciousness. consciousness.social aims to provide a living example of that.

That's my memory, too. I saw "distributed" and did a double-take.
Kind of. Here's the basic problem:

1) The BIG tools have SOME port to AMD. I am confident that one can run Mistral or SD in some framework there.

2) It's a port. If you want to do anything bleeding edge, development, niche, or similar, it's a dumpster fire.

I do dome amount of development which uses LLMs. I want to be able to use a model directly from Hugging Face and have it just work.

I think if Tesla accepted they are a car company rather than a tech/AI/robot/storage one and concentrated on building better cars at the increasing scale needed to make them more attractive to buyers the company would do a lot better.

One idea - put the AI tech in a new company (with a contract to provide Tesla with FSD if they ever develop it), so Musk can play with AGI and androids on his day off and give him half the shares if Tesla sales increase.
