Did you work there many decades ago? Because here in India passbooks have had printer entry for at least 20-30 years give or take or more. And if there was an old passbook (that was designed for handwritten entries) it had to be replaced by a new passbook immediately (you could keep the old passbook but it would crossed/marked or something).
Hmm maybe not, this is still happening for me.
It's not crazy that people are wrong about facts, but then they should keep their opinions to themselves.
I agree.

However, I also don't think it's success can be attributed to Brooks either. He's not very good for much of anything, except making himself be known as a famous roboticist. The company was successful due to other folks there. It is failing for the same reason.

Brooks was a fine figurehead, but that doesn't make a successful company.
Do you thumbs down the bad responses?
> Unless the company is compensating folks for living closer to offices, they are likely just transferring those costs to the employees’ cost of living when forcing folks to live in higher cost of living areas.

Cost of living has historically been factored when determining salary, right?

I don't live in a high cost of living environment (I live in Malmo, Sweden; pretty cheap by Swedish standards overall) and I won't earn as much here as I would if I was working in Zurich or Stockholm.

What you say here comes across as hugely entitled since presumably you are already paid a really high salary and want to make even more relative to others in your area? By virtue of you being able to work remotely even if it comes at a cost to your productivity?

As a counter: Large companies (such as IBM) typically have their campuses located outside of major metropolitan hubs where office space is cheap: is your predilection, then, that they should pay you now less? If they force a move to a lower cost of living area because they decide that?

You are paid for a job in a place, and getting to that job is part of the salary for that job in some circumstances.

You wouldn't expect Police officer to be paid the same in NYC vs Bryan, Ohio. If that police officer were to move to Bryan from NYC though: their travel costs and cost of living are on them, They would be paid to work in NYC.

That's a really good point, although I think the smallness matters more in absolute terms, than relative terms. Both examples show that you can maintain a large foreign presence in your military though. The French Foreign Legion is highly, highly, selective though.

I don't know much about the Ukraine foreign legion, but being in an immediately existentially threatening conflict is a special case. I doubt the Ukrainians would wish for such a large foreign legion if they had the choice, although again, I don't know the history of its numbers prior to the war with Russia.
if you want to read the same book AA just read: “Patmos” by C. Baxter Kruger.
Religiously.
Because it's weird enough to be off-putting, and it doesn't solve a real-world problem.

If you look at the arguments in favor of Lisp, they'll often boil down to it being "beautiful", "elegant", "flexible", or even "magical". It's a very minimal language which allows you to do absolutely anything - a lot of which would be an absolute nightmare in most other languages. You could implement just about any programming paradigm in Lisp if you want to. I believe this makes it very appealing to computer scientists, or other people with a more mathematical background. However, this flexibility is also a massive footgun: if you're not careful your junior developer might end up reinventing the wheel a dozen times, and writing completely unmaintainable code in the process.

On the other hand, most other programming languages look kind-of the same. They are all quite opinionated about how stuff is supposed to work, with a lot of hardware details leaking into the language. However, they are very easy to learn: most of it is just "do a bunch of operations in succession" taken to the extreme. Anyone who knows C# will be able to pick up a basic understanding of C, Python, or JavaScript well within a day, and a lot of people new to programming will be able to write not-completely-terrible code within a month or two when given the right guidance. They don't need to know about all the abstractions and technical details to be a functioning member of your team.

When you're running a business, you don't care about any of that beauty or flexibility. You want code which is quick and easy to write, trivial to read, and understandable by even the worst programmer in your company. In practice that means in your comparison you'll be choosing Python over Lisp. Heck, Go was developed entirely around this principle, cutting out as many language features as possible. And because all the other companies are making the same choice there will also be way more libraries for Python, making the gap even larger.

So yeah, in a stroke of irony Lisp isn't more popular because it is better.
This is such a stupid mess. Embracer spent billions on acquisitions just to then destroy all the studios a few years after. I was also a part of one of their acquisitions that they shut down after a few years (this was before the bubble burst)

I have a basically unsubstantiated intuition that there is some analog of the recursion theorem for LLMs, if it’s not itself applicable. If so it should be mathematically impossible to prevent prompt “hacking.”

I've thought that adding the type information is to help less bugs, so I'd be curious to see evidence of the contrary.

> I don't even know what harm would mean, then.

Suffering some sort of detectable injury, for example. I'm hedging a bit because there could easily be something obvious I'm not seeing, but I don't really see how Taylor Swift of 2024 is worse off than the one of 2023 here. She hasn't suffered any physical harm. I don't think this harms her reputation. It isn't going to cause her financial prospects to drop. There is emotional harm, but that has always been a bit of a cop out taht people use when they just don't like something and I don't see why it has to cause emotional harm. There doesn't have to be any stigma around this, it looks like it is just going to be one of those things that happens.

Automated fake porn is obviously different and I can see why she might be upset. But it isn't so clear she - or anyone else - has actually been harmed in any serious way. I get upset by a bunch of things that are frankly more materially impactful on me than this is on her and it isn't appropriate to say they harm me. Tax springs to mind as a light example.

And speaking of WWII, we'll note that although war became much more horrific, it became so much more horrific that we seem to have stopped doing so much of it. So although objectively the machine gun makes fighting much worse, it actually led to less killing overall.
> most organisations do not _hire_ using DEI over merit

Scientific study needed.

There's a reason we use double blind studies; there are many biases that can influence results. I'd bet a pretty penny that most organizations ARE hiring DEI over merit, they may simply not be doing so explicitly.

If you're "collecting candidate pools based on diversity", you're not going to convince me that you aren't biasing your hiring in some way. https://xkcd.com/463/

Apparently the margin on them is ~45%, so if they do okay I can see that hole being dug out within a few years.

Others have mentioned as well that it seems like this platform might not strictly be a bet on VR. It might also be a proving ground for vision systems and realtime processing capabilities. If that's the case, the information and development advances they can make with this experience might allow them to execute on bigger plans. That could be a car for example. I'm not sure what I think of that, but I don't doubt the product may have been partially justified because it allows shared progress with bigger picture plans. That would make going in the hole okay in a sense, because you'd have to go in the hole either way. At least this way you get a bit back and prove out technologies in the wild.

> How is it that European tech workers can't bargain for higher wages?

The leverage a company has and the leverage a union has both come from the same place: A lack of alternatives. But then that's the problem.

If you have a competitive industry, the union can't demand much because the company's margins will be slim and they won't be able to give the union much without raising prices, losing customers to competitors and going out of business. This is actually fine because in that case workers still get the money in the form of lower consumer prices, but then it's not the union which is getting you the benefit.

Conversely, if the industry isn't competitive then the company will be a huge conglomerate with a lot of leverage against workers/consumers. They'll be big enough to exert political influence in the government and also big enough for the company's union to become infested with politics. In particular, the union knows where its leverage comes from, and it's workers with skills in high demand, so any union that doesn't keep them happy and keep them from moving to another company/industry is going to have to contend with a pissed off conglomerate with a lot of political influence. So the money goes to the people with high demand skills (or political connections) and the rank and file still get the scraps, but now it's even worse because lack of competition and high levels of organizational inefficiency means high prices when they go to buy things.

> Using modern cryptography, it is easy to send a machine-generated proof to your social media provider that your government-provided ID says your age is ≥ 16, without revealing anything else about you to the service provider (not even your age), and without having to communicate with the government either.

There's just one problem. How does the machine proving your age know that you are who you say you are? Modern cryptography doesn't have any tools whatsoever that can prove anything about the real body currently operating the machine--it can never have such a tool. And the closest thing that people can think of to a solution is "biometrics," which immediately raises lots of privacy concerns.

Belief is something nearly everybody does, religious or not: when I go downstairs to make some tea, I act thus believing that there is tea downstairs; when I reason by modus ponens, I do so believing therein; and when a scientist uses a theorem in a derivation, they will often believe that the result is going to be at least approximately correct in some sense to be specified thereof.

Beliefs of course vary in the level of justification (a) that can be supplied (b) that actually is present.

Hey it’s Eric (the author). I talk quite a bit in the article about how to make the lessons of places like Bell and GE work even if you’re not attached to a large lab.

Repurposing Bell-style systems engineers to isolate white hot problems is one example. Another is the general BBN-style approach which worked for them as a stand-alone R&D firm. I have stand alone pieces where I explore both of those quite a bit.

In general, I don’t think the concept of the playbooks of the great industrial R&D labs not working in firms un-attached to large firms holds much water.

Yes, I agree on that one, 2077 focused more on the individual's perspective. The world seems to be overflowing with conspiracy theories in the past 5+ years though, I feel like Deus Ex has so much to work with.
While I agree that many people would do well to have the kind of civic background knowledge they demand people acquire to gain citizenship, and it's an important part of integrating people into a society, there is also a lot that is acquired by living in a society for a time, experiencing and observing its contradictions and how it manages them personally, understanding how you navigate it and your place between two or more national identities and experiences, etc.

That said, I think there's a place for inviting people in. In America's case though, it seems like there's a huge reserve of people already in American society, both legally and illegally, that can be drawn on first. That to me seems like it should be the priority.

I'd like to point you to the wikipedia article of Werner Forssmann, who performed the first cardiac catheterization. Using himself as the test subject. And more.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Forssmann

> He ignored his department chief and persuaded the operating-room nurse in charge of the sterile supplies, Gerda Ditzen, to assist him. She agreed, but only on the promise that he would do it on her rather than on himself. However, Forssmann tricked her by restraining her to the operating table and pretending to locally anaesthetise and cut her arm whilst actually doing it on himself. He anesthetized his own lower arm in the cubital region and inserted a urinary catheter into his antecubital vein, threading it partly along before releasing Ditzen (who at this point realised the catheter was not in her arm) and telling her to call the X-ray department. They walked some distance to the X-ray department on the floor below where under the guidance of a fluoroscope he advanced the catheter the full 60 cm into his right ventricular cavity. This was then recorded on X-Ray film showing the catheter lying in his right atrium.
Radiation tolerance goes down with node size. Companies aren't pushing much smaller because they there's nothing they can do about the increased upset rates at those sizes.

Rather, they're turning to other options to achieve rad tolerance in critical systems, stuff like soft cores specifically designed for redundancy running on radiation hardened FPGAs.

Also, the rad tolerant parts aren't there to do the crazy high speed work. When people talk about voting architectures with redundant COTS parts, what do you think is counting the votes and resetting the effected systems?

P40 is essentially a faster 1080 with 24GB ram. For many tasks (including LLMs) it's easy to be memory bandwidth bottlenecked and if you are they are more evenly matched. (newer hardware has more bandwidth, sure but not in a cost proportional manner).

I find that my hosts using 9x P40 do inference on 70b models MUCH MUCH faster than a e.g. a dual 7763 and cost a lot less. ... and can also support 200B parameter models!

For the price of a single 4090, which doesn't have enough ram to run anything I'm interested in, I can have slower cards which have cumulatively 15 times the memory and cumulatively 3.5 times the memory bandwidth.

- Why MPL? GPL compatibility?
