Problem is when businesses people want statistics and insights. Unstructured data allows not filling in some data but then data might be required to make analysis.

Agent taking free form notes might skip parts that are required for other means than job at hand and agent will optimize for work he thinks is important, some general statistics don’t bother him.

Problem is that user on the ground sometimes has to be forced into a scheme of bigger picture of processes.

On the other hand too much data is also being marked as required by business - where ad hoc note would do.

I see this with our customers where they ask us to implement bunch of fields as “must be filled in” just to start complaining that it takes too long to fill all required in - I did not make all of it mandatory on my own it was their business analysis.

I've actually used Picat's planning mode at work!

I prototyped a system to orchestrate maintenance on fleets of devices. The idea was that, rather than telling the system how to do it (e.g. workflows to roll out an update), you'd tell the system what you wanted (e.g. up to date machines), what actions were available (e.g. pull a machine from rotation, apply an update), and what constraints to obey (e.g. X of Y machines must be online, don't work in more than two regions simultaneously.)

I modeled a few scenarios like that in Picat and had it generate optimal plans. It worked swimmingly for pet problems, but predictably fell over scaling to cattle sizes. Planning is EXPTIME after all (e.g. Towers of Hanoi).*

Picat does have an escape hatch - you can define heuristics - so I built a random forest of state predicates and trained a naive Bayes classifier to predict fruitful paths. But even with that, and symmetry breaking constraints, and even some hierarchical planning, I couldn't make it work without too much handholding.

It's still AI winter for the classic GOFAI problem domains, apparently. :/

* maybe not, actually, if you reformulate the planning problem as returning a polynomial-time generator of a potentially exponentially long plan

Because unlike Telegram they strive to do things in a privacy-respecting way, and that's hard to get right.
On top of that, the top comment from the Kagi CEO says this was developed by a single developer in a couple of weeks... Yes they will have to finish building up infrastructure behind it, but as a paying Kagi user I'm more than happy to support any side ventures that ultimately end up making search better in the long run.

Presumably for the same reason that mine operators assume that all minerals are evenly distributed throughout the earth's crust.

> Are we in the wrong here?

Unquestionably.

What I do with your software is quite frankly none of your business. You do not have the right to know what I do with my hardware. Your metrics are not my concern.

FOSS is a very personal thing. Try framing it as a conversation between you and your users:

"Hey, we work hard on this and would really appreciate it if you share telemetry so we can focus our efforts better"

Vs

"This application now collects telemetry. You cannot turn it off. You want privacy? Too bad."

The difference is asking your users to share data and demanding they give up their privacy on your whim.

> Give people the “more privacy” button and most are going to press it.

You should have a good long think about what this means and why removing privacy options is making your users upset.

When I implement telemetry in a FOSS project, I go well out of my way to do it in the most respectful way I can. This usually takes the form of a detailed list of what is and is not being collected, along with why I need it. During first run, there is either a very prominent notification or a full on blocking step where the user must choose whether to enable telemetry. This includes text explaining why I want telemetry and a link to the documents.

My philosophy is that users are not idiots and they are not children that need coddling. I make my request, give them the information, and let them make their choice. That's it, end of transaction. The user made a choice and the matter is totally out of my control.

Anything less is not respecting your users.

"The Windows context menu is... poorly made."

That website is poorly made. What's with the scrolling.

Anyway. Yes. It's a very very complicated software with hooks decades back. That's a feature not a bug. He's mad that it's complicated to customize, or really, understand and build UI customization for, including third-party applications implementations of them? What?

People still use mission critical software from 30 years ago that relies on their old implementations of context menus. So what?
It’s happening right now.
Well, now the JVM has lightweight processes. We may eventually see OTP reimagined on the JVM.
Human brains have a limit on the number of things they can deal with simultaneously called "the rule of seven plus or minus two."

I don't know if you've seen the demo of Gemini 1.5 parsing a video with a 1M context length, but it does things few humans could.

The ability to take all that information and put it into an engine which can identify relationships between data with greater breadth and depth than any individual human will be unfathomably valuable to progress and advancement.

As a trivial example - there's been a number of different diets that have shown success for autoimmune conditions across meta-analyses. But many of the details in the diets are contradictory, such as one being very protein heavy and another being vegetarian. How convenient would it be to ask a model what the common factors are across the half dozen diets that all seem to work?

One day soon it will be feasible for medical trials to do full genome sequencing for participants. Would it be convenient to have a model identify common genes for those where treatment was ineffective vs effective?

This is very much not what privacy.com is for, and it won't protect you from $14k in BigQuery bills. There is no clause in the GCP contract (or any other contract, for that matter) which says "if your payment method is invalid when we go to collect what you owe us, we forfeit all right to be paid."

For small charges they might just give up because it's not worth it, but when dealing with a $14k bill you should assume that they will at the very least hand the debt off to a collections agency if you try to just ignore it.
Or for some there is a national base price.

You can set the size limit for individual queries. Plus the custom quotas and everything.

Part of the problem is that the OP wrote a script with a loop. So say you set the limit to 50 GiB per query, but then write a script that runs a 49 GiB query 1000 times...

That type of batch process should be designed much more carefully to consider costs.

I think asking the question "Can OpenAI create superintelligence" telegraphs a lack of understanding of where the intelligence, in AI, comes from. Mimicking intelligence based on patterns identified in LLMs isn't a bedrock for creating "superintelligence." I expect something like self-learning neural networks to be the basis for that.
Candidates can find someone suitably qualified via Upwork or a similar platform. They don't need the absolute best expert in the field, just someone who's an expert relative to them.

Could have gotten stavr.05
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/25860#issuecomment-...

“Similarly, the reason why niko's approach is not yet implemented is simply that getting the type system to a point where we even can implement this is Hard. Fixing this bug is blocked on replacing the existing trait solver(s): #107374. A clean fix for this issue (and the ability to even consider using proof objects), will then also be blocked blocked on coinductive trait goals and explicit well formed bounds. We should then be able to add implications to the trait solver.

So I guess the status is that we're slowly getting there but it is very hard, especially as we have to be incredibly careful to not break backwards compatibility.”

https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/2023/07/17/trait-syst...

“The new trait solver implementation should also unblock many future changes, most notably around implied bounds and coinduction. For example, it will allow us to remove many of the current restrictions on GATs and to fix many long-standing unsound issues, like #25860. Some unsound issues will already be fixed at the point of stabilization while others will require additional work afterwards.”

Because until you're big enough to have local weather systems evolving inside your offices, that's called 'servers'.

what constitutes a bad bet is largely in the eye of the beholder unless there are clear parameters to help define an EV. Also different investors will have different tolerances for risk. I have extremely high tolerance for risk and have been rewarded for that tolerance with outsized gains in the market over the years that have dwarfed all of my jobs combined in income except for my most recent stint at NVIDIA.

a financial advisor would always tell you to unload all shares at each vest since you are holding more shares in the form of future vestings.they would then tell you to diversify it into ETFs in a mean variance optimized portfolio tailored to your risk appetite using standard deviation of historical returns and correlation of underlying basket of goods. this is a solid approach that produces predictable safe returns.

I would rather let it ride since I have insider information at most companies I work for and have a better understanding of future returns on that stock that the average person on the street.

I say, take average advice, receive average returns.

ChatGPT Are You Okay?
Last year, I launched a new game studio that's using gen-ai in the core game loop. Finally had a chance to write up one of my takes on what makes ai-in-games interesting: that it closes the designer-player feedback loop.

May seem a bit obvious to to the Hacker News crowd, but within the game industry I haven't seen it discussed as much. Curious for other takes and feedback.
Regular people don’t need to manage private keys for those, but there are a lot of weaknesses around the Trusted Platform Module managing said key for disk encryption.
The “end-to-end” encrypted messaging also hides the fact that the keys are accessible by the platform operator in most cases, whether through iCloud Backup or otherwise.
This is a decent middle ground if you can completely trust your provider, but obfuscating the real mechanics of the private key is how people are fooled into believing their communication is truly private.
My blog's images are not massive in file size, by design. I host them on a sub-domain to help segment the traffic. It's by no means CDN-tier but my traffic is light enough that I don't worry about it.
What I've always found weird in gamedev is that everyone under the sun builds their own graphics engine - I don't think there's even popular middleware for that.

But almost nobody builds their audio engine - to the point that basically there's no good open source audio engine in existence. I wonder why is that - while the requisite knowledge is not as readily available as it is for graphics, and this might be hubris speaking, but it can't be that much more difficult.
The context is that professors are increasingly vulnerable to being fired based on the political whims of students. There have been a few cases at Yale recently:

- the Halloween thing

- a teacher who wanted to let that right-wing hack Yiannopolos speak (free speech)

- and I feel like there was one more about gender politics

You can argue the actual politics or who started what, but what I'm seeing is a lack of respect. Challenging ideas is all well and good, but what puts it over the line is threatening people's careers over them.
Was your memorizing it infringement?

I'm all for policing the outputs of generative models and enforcing copyright on their usage.

I am very much against ruling that their training is infringement.

A model which uses old NYT articles to learn the relationship between words and concepts which turns around and is used to identify potentially falsified research papers for review should not be prevented from existing.

If the model is used to reproduce copyrighted material - by all means the person running it should be liable.

This would create a ML industry around copyright identification as a pre filter before outputting (ironically requiring training on copyrighted material to enforce).

The reason I speak of "neurotypical bullshit" is because people around me have several times suspected I'm on the spectrum, and I noticed I have a hard time dealing with subtle social cues. One manifestation of this is when someone asks me something with a straight face, I tend to assume they actually want what they asked for.

When someone asks them feedback so they can improve, I tend to concentrate on what could have actual impact, and this heavily biases towards negative feedback: the build system is bulky and not well documented, newcomers waste time on it, we should replace those global variables by messages if we actually meant to do an actor model, this piece of code is 10 times bigger than it needs to be and will drag us behind if we port it as is…

To be honest, phrasing the above in a nice way that avoids hurting people's feeling is exhausting. They want to know how to make their system better? Well, here are the parts that suck the most, addressing those should have the biggest positive impact. Short and to the point. Oh you didn't want me to tell you that? Why did you fucking asked then?
Neural Wristband for AR/VR Input Will Ship "In the Next Few Years"
No, this is usually (apologies if not in your case) a straw man, and representative of the usual HN blind spot for cryptocurrency.
Ledger and Trezor hardware wallets do protect against this class of attack.
We are rapidly approaching a world in which those with significant assets or job responsibilities should be carrying physical 2FA tokens, which can allow use of private keys while protecting them (a hardware wallet).

This is more of the same. The base rule in crypto has always been “not your keys, not your coins” and to keep your recovery seed offline and only enter it with the utmost of caution.

The history of scams is long, requiring periods of societal learning and transition as e.g. credit card, identity fraud, and wire fraud have taken center stage.

Private keys will be something that a certain amount of the population will eventually be required to understand in my estimation, even if simplified as much as can be. The alternative is more middle ground solutions putting ultimate trust in a separate party managing the keys.

There isn’t much use for most first world citizens in maintaining direct control over their digital wealth, so they are best served by staying away or dollar cost averaging a small percentage of their portfolio into an offline wallet. Those who want to experiment with smart contracts can do so with much smaller amounts.

The ability to memorize 12 words and have direct ownership of your wealth anywhere with an Internet connection, independent of any party save those facilitating the network and the one accepting your payment, and the ability to cross a border or transfer to the other side of the globe without seizure, is already tremendously powerful to hundreds of millions of people who lack trustworthy financial services.
