It's the classic situation of someone without ADHD telling us "just focus!" or "you just need to write things down!" or "you're just lazy".

I have ADHD, and I also do not have a sense of smell (lost it in a TBI when I was a teenager). I tell people, "you take for granted what it's like to have a sense of smell. It affects every moment of your day, catching your interest and directing your attention all the time. Imagine not having a sense of smell. Imagine not smelling dinner or smelling your wife or smelling your baby. Imagine not smelling flowers or not smelling a gas leak. So much of what you take for granted comes from your sense of smell. Having ADHD is like that. You take executive function for granted, and can't imagine what it's like to not have that. When you say 'just write things down!' it's like saying 'just smell harder!'"

How are these performing so well compared to Llama 2, are there any documents on the architecture and differences, is it MoE?

You will add readyset between your backend and database in order to cache the data you fetch from db.
I imagine a good use case for this at its current stage would be for powering up a monitoring dashboard that runs ad-hoc queries against your operational DB. I've seen this situation in a previous Fintech company I worked at, where we had some people staring at dashboards all day long looking for issues in any of the subsystems.
Right now the strongest selection pressure on humans is for ppl who have “irresponsible” unprotected sex. Sensible people who use birth control are failing to reproduce.

> they refer to his career in the private sector which as far as I'm aware includes two jobs. One was as an economist and the other as a "sex guru" of some kind.

He was an economics professor for more than 20 years.

And he has also been a semi pro football player, played in a rock band, and been a tantric sex instructor.

There will never be a long-term colony on Mars. Mars is not a habitable planet.

Compared to Earth, Mars has no atmosphere. (100k pascals vs 600 pascals.)

Mars has no magnetic field.

Mars has 1/3rd the gravity of Earth. We know low gravity has deleterious health effects.

Anybody who lived on Mars would have to live inside a pressurized building at all times. Stepping outside would be lethal. If we're able to to build sustainable colonies in these conditions then we might as well focus on colonizing the Moon first. There would be nothing special about Mars, we might as well just live in space habitats. If there is a future of Martian colonization it involves extensive genetic engineering and massive terraforming projects we can only dream of now.
Ok I am triggered.

I am rather ignorant on the matter but indeed I don't like that some things/people are too big too fail in the system.

On the other hand, isn't that established that banks being allowed to issue more money than what is backed by their assets is universally recognized as "good" as in allowing for previously unseen economic development that benefits everyone (but not equally...) ?

This is very much in the realm of something ChatGPT can write for you, just so long as you tell it how the OpenAI APIs work because those were published after the training cut-off.
This isn't at all what they claim. Can you point out where they say that "if you just buy their thing you'll have a distraction free life in 14 days" ?

What it actually claims is to get you to "bearable levels of procrastination", which I find refreshing, since it seems like a very achievable and realistic goal for those of us that procrastinate. In fact, this claim is nearly the opposite of what you're railing against.

You also said you have personally started making a meaningful difference, but gave zero hint about what you have done, and what impact it has made. And you leave us with "maybe there's some advice buried in it". I'd like to say, no, there's none I can see, unless you'd like to offer something specific and helpful. I'm curious to see what you have done.
It seems you have exposed the internal debugging tool link in the blog post. You may want to do something about it.
No thanks. In that case I prefer to build my own, so I know how to fix it myself. Some people and laws might take issue with that though.

The human factor is one of the reasons Taiwan is as good in chip manufacturing as it is.

Working in a chip factory is plain terrible for humans: Having to do anything in a clean room is exhausting. Even young people in Taiwan are sceptical about the working conditions:

Japanese work culture is famous for glorifying the ability to suffer for your job, and Shintoism even puts a spiritual component to „cleanness“.

It's almost the same as photoshop, what's there to learn?
This speech has no legs to stand on. His key premise conflates the industrial revolution with a special definition of capitalism. Which for his ideology has perfect price discovery and a world where no large corporations collude with other. His main course is your usual slab of blaming socialism, sprinkled with side blame at feminists and environmentalists.

I don't see anything worth reading here. It is deceptive with intent and fundamentally unhinged.
Available on Ollama?
Exactly!

We are driving our future off a cliff by allowing collectivism to return over libertarianism.

For example his perspective would be very consistent with the perspectives of the founding fathers of the United States. The Founding Fathers would have widely agreed with the speech’s support for free-market capitalism and its critique of collectivism, socialism, and excessive state intervention. Advocating principles that promote economic freedom and prosperity would resonate with them as a reflection of their own efforts to create a government that promotes individual liberty and economic opportunity. celebration of the entrepreneur as a hero of prosperity and its warning against state overreach would likely find broad support among the Founding Fathers. They were, after all, establishing a new nation built on principles of liberty, property rights, and opposition to tyranny. The speech’s call for economic freedom and limited government intervention mirrors the Founding Fathers’ debates on the proper role and size of government. Many of the Founding Fathers, like Alexander Hamilton, would likely support the speech’s endorsement of free-market capitalism. The emphasis on economic freedom and the role of free enterprise in lifting people out of poverty would resonate with his and similar Founders’ views on economic development.

Yet somehow this is generally considered the majority opinion today of his speech:

You can use the ox-pandoc library to export from Org Mode in Emacs to 65 different formats (at time of writing) including all the ones you mention.

For some formats that pandoc does not output, there are also specialised ox-format libraries.

There are even several exporters to Github-flavoured markdown. I personally find both ox-pandoc and ox-gfm very useful for that purpose.

My only use of ChatGPT is to explain things to me in a certain context that a dictionary can't.

It's been semi-useful at augmenting search for me.

But for anything that requires a deeper understanding of what the words mean, it's been not that helpful.

Same with co-pilot. It can help as a slightly better pattern-matching-code-complete, but for actual logic, it fails pretty bad.

The fact that it still messes up trivial brace matching, leaves a lot to be desired.
70-80%+ of the population was already living in urban areas in the 60s though.
Great ideas. I believe that dealing with a messy ambient or situations is a nice skill to develop, some people can't handle it at all.

With time, you'll start to appreciate the imperfections, the fact that you can't absolutely focus for a task because people are sending you messages, will have a smaller impact on your emotions and your overall focus will improve.

Having the goal of having absolute uninterrupted time and the stars aligning so you can just do what you need is the root of all procrastination, doing something 10% is better than 0%.

I'm a perfectionist and as soon as I've started thinking, reflecting and accepting real and even half-assed solutions to problems, my life started to improve, and it became lighter as well.

You also don't need to worry, you can't unlearn being a perfectionist, but indeed, you need a few things or moments of your day to unleash that "perfection' energy, it just doesn't need to be everytime.

It moved to Taiwan (and SK) from Japan because Japanese graduated from that kind of work culture.

The work culture in Taiwan (and SK) is miles worse than Japan today - which makes sense as both are around 10-20 years behind Japan

Median household income in Japan is around $48k [0], around $33k in SK [1], and Taiwan's I can't find but is around $28-34k based on median wage ($16k) [2]

SK+TW have entered a similar doldrums to JP around 15-20 years ago, and just like how JP began outsourcing manufacturing to China, ASEAN (mostly Thailand), and India in the 2000s, SK+TW have started doing the same (Vietnam for SK, Taiwan hasn't found a major ASEAN partner yet)

There is more to the British monarchy than tourism, but even so, it is worth noting (emphasis mine):

'This is the doctrine of "the divine right of kings". According to it, in its rigour, in a State once monarchical, monarchy is forever the only lawful government, and all authority is vested in the monarch, to be communicated by him, to such as he may select for the time being to share his power. This "divine right of kings" (very different from the doctrine that all authority, whether of king or of republic, is from God), has never been sanctioned by the Catholic Church. At the Reformation it assumed a form exceedingly hostile to Catholicism, monarchs like Henry VIII, and James I, of England, claiming the fullness of spiritual as well as of civil authority, and this in such inalienable possession that no jot or tittle of prerogative could ever pass away from the Crown. [...] Suárez argued against James I that spiritual authority is not vested in the Crown, and that even civil authority is not the immediate gift of God to the king, but is given by God to the people collectively, and by them bestowed on the monarch, according to the theory of the Roman lawyers above mentioned, and according to Aristotle and St. Thomas.'

Ask HN: Risk Management in High Frequency Trading Business
What are the most comprehensive resources available to delve into risk management specifically tailored for a High-Frequency Trading (HFT) business? More practical

While introductory chapters in books like "High-Frequency Trading: A Practical Guide to Algorithmic Strategies and Trading Systems" offer very foundational and sort of outdated knowledge, they often lack the depth and practicality required for sophisticated risk management strategies in HFT.

To truly understand and effectively manage risk in this complex environment, one must explore more advanced materials, including case studies, research papers, or documentation provided by exchanges.
The currency was named "real" as in "royal", not as in "actual". And it was what the Portuguese and later Brazilian currency was called from the 1400s until the 20th century. (or at least that's the actual etymology of the currency, even though "real" does also mean "actual" in portuguese now.)
The fact Gemma team is in the comments section answering questions is praiseworthy to me :)
I have the same experience. Where I worked the offices were 2-person offices, and this worked very good for mentor-student environment, or when 2 ppl had to crack a really tough nut.
The doors were also mostly open, and the corridors were quiet and peaceful.
If you wanted to chitchat etc you would walk to the social area with a coffee machine, the lunch setup etc.

It was really nice, and if I ever have to go back to an office, this is how I would like it to be again. Otherwise I continue my working from home.
What you're referring to is leverage. It's a multiplier.

The issue is malinvestment and misallocation of resources.

Leverage up on malinvestment (which is what most of the central banks and governments are doing) and it's the fast path to hell.

A fixed supply neutral third party money adds a sort of safety barrier against this leveraged malinvestment.

When I was a kid, there was an orange coloured drink called Tango, whose advertising used the tagline "You know when you've been Tangoed", often paired with slapstick (which led to some ads getting banned for fear of real-life imitations). HN is, memetically, "the orange site".

So, I propose the HN hug of death is known as "getting Tangoed".
I always thought Dune’s Butlerian Jihad was one of the more fantastical elements of the story, but now it’s probably one of the more realistic.
It was closely related to SPARC.

"The 29k evolved from the same Berkeley RISC design that also led to the Sun SPARC..."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Am29000

EDIT: As far as I know, it was also underneath the K5.

"The K5 was based upon an internal highly parallel RISC processor architecture with an x86 decoding front-end."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_K5

This was before the NexGen acquisition, so the 29k would have been the obvious RISC.

"AMD purchased NexGen when AMD's K5 chip failed to meet performance and sales expectations."

Hey everyone! We made a tool that shows you how someone with anxiety feels when they get messages. It's all about getting each other and being kind.

You are not wrong. But it also reminds me that the early web was full of things like this. Where everyone was just kind of playing around. Doing fun things. Not all of them worked. In fact most of them were terrible. But now many web pages are fairly sterile full of ads and looking for a buyout of some VC benefactor. That GeoCities/Myspace style of internet can be fun.

NK nukes SK, USA nukes NK, CCP needs to show that they are not weak and nukes something America-adjacent (ex: Guam). I think all bets are off at that point.

There is a contingent of generals in every nuclear capable country which is itching to use them. Historically, it has only been a rational civilian leader who has kept them in check.

There was recently a US President who was talking about nuking a hurricane.[0] Once nuclear weapons are in play, we just need one irrational reactionary leader, in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and Fin.
