If you believe in morals you'd believe so. They're filtering a person's thoughts when dating. Dating itself can be seen as immoral, especially in hookup culture.

If someone feels like they're speaking to grammarly, or a generic response from google they heard before, they revert to judging you by your looks as usual. If you are ugly none of the AI crap will work.
Yeah, in my experience FedEx drivers absolutely LOVE saying they “attempted delivery of my package, but nobody was home,” so I have to go get it from the depot. But I 100% was home, working from home all day, and they 100% never came.
Great job! How did accomplish it?
> They get a significant markup for providing this "service" to the receiver, so it is not in their interest to help the sender.

I understand. It is a service, and I am willing to pay for it. The alternative is that I don't send presents with them. "Happy birthday! Quick pay 20 bucks before you can get your present!" is not really a good experience.

> More charitably the actual duties to be paid might not be known until the package reaches the border at destination.

I understand that too. That is why they are sending the request for the duties only once the package is at the border. But why can they send the request towards the recipient and not towards the sender?
Wouldn't that cost a fortune? If I feed the maximum into gpt-4 it will already cost $1.28 per interaction! Or is Gemini that much cheaper too?
Two black box AIs duking it out to see if their users would be compatible for mating... What a time to be alive.

How about this: people need to fucking go outside, get hobbies, meet real people in the real world.
In my experience, there are some security products out there that protect against browser redirects and software that can do shady things to the computer even though it appears legit. I think these products are good for basic users who don't know how to protect themselves online. IMHO Defender is only good for on disk problems.
I expect there are many careers that are similar. In some ways, your experience doesn't matter. A civil engineer with 40 years of experience building houses, malls, or parking garages is still a rookie if they're building their first bridge, right? Many concepts still apply, maybe even most, but it's still going to be new and difficult. I have over 30 years experience as a software developer but I wouldn't want to program for medical equipment or dive into complex low-level architecture that I haven't thought about since college.
I believe with the API you can get 128k, but using the app or web client it is 32k. This might have changed though.

It needs, but unfortunately it doesn’t have. That category is won by Java multiple times.
(at least for heterosexual pairings)

If you're a man, you're probably going to want AI to "assist" you with replies to maximize your chances of success with your (relatively few) matches. If you're a woman, you're going to want AI to manage the dozens of conversations in-flight at any given time. We're probably moving toward a world where AIs are flirting with AIs totally open loop.
If your bank account is also at your broker (ex. Schwab, Fidelity) then money market funds are actually more convenient than a HYSA. My money market fund money is available the day after I sell and there is no waiting period to transfer between my accounts at Schwab. Also I can use the money market fund to underwrite cash secured puts or for other investment activities.

Transferring between institutions I have had take 3-5 days before funds clear. Wires can be faster but come with fees and a whole bunch of questions to make sure you aren’t a scammer trying to empty an account.

So, it is good to know about all your options. I keep my 6month emergency fund in SNOXX money market fund. With Fidelity you can set a sweep to go into their short term treasury fund and not even have to sell anything to transfer the money out.
Permanent Prototypes
The short answer is that if you could answer that question in advance to a high accuracy, you could make billions as bond trader. In theory, you get paid similarly to regularly going out into the bond market and buying US government bonds that expire in the next few months, but with a potential tax savings twist. (I am a random Internet dude, not a tax lawyer.)

The returns supposedly track the short end of the yield curve on US Treasuries. That would make sense, as theoretically, the net premium of a box spread is equal to the net present value of the payout (under the no arbitrage assumption). That net present value should be very close to the yield on a zero-risk asset over the same time period. They're using 1 to 3 month options, so in theory, they get yield close to short-term US Treasuries (the market prices a near-zero probability of the US defaulting on its bonds in the next few months).

I haven't looked into the tracking error between SPY box spreads and the short end of the US yield curve. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_spread#cite_note-2 says the yield averages about 0.35% above holding equivalent maturity US Treasuries.

Though, it sounds like they're using box spreads composed of American options, so I wonder how they deal with early exercise risk. You only get bond-like performance from a box spread if you don't have early-exercise risk. The further out of the money they place their strikes in the box spread to avoid early exercise risk, the lower the liquidity they get, and higher trading costs.

The tax trick is that they also enter into a delta-neutral trade on a high-value single stock. (They don't use and index for this part because they want the difference between the winning and losing parts of this trade to be as large as possible, so they want volatility in the underlying asset.) At certain points, they realize the losses on the losing half of that trade (reducing tax liability), and perform a tax-free in-kind exchange of units (shares) in their ETF for the winning half of that trade. Of course, they don't know in advance which half will win and which will lose, but it doesn't matter. The brokerage buying their ETF in order to make the tax-free exchange bumps up the price of the ETF, very close to the value of the winning leg of the tax-saving trade.

Note the several caveats above (and probably some I missed) in comparing with US Treasuries yield.

This is not investment or tax advice.
The working world is still incredibly unfair to women. Source: I witness my wife's struggles. Fortunately for us we were able to have our children during the covid wfh boom and it was so good for our family. She was able to progress in both her career and we were able to raise our children. Now our children are still young and she only needs to go in 2x/week but we see the tide turning. Most of her peers that are women are unmarried or don't have children.
gguf files are out there, so anyone should be able to do this! are people looking for an "official" version?

> Although this is from Google, we're a very small team that wanted such a codebase to exist. We have lots of plans to use it ourselves and we hope other people like it and find it useful.

This is really cool, Austin. Kudos to your team!
Sorry to hear this! At the risk of repeating what others in your life may have told you, have you considered working for a new team/company? I find it of utmost importance to find a job/career that is intrinsically fulfilling and rewarding to you. Extrinsic rewards like money are great, but you can only slog for so long for only money before you burn out.

I've personally been fortunate to have been able to form a network of a bunch of different well-connected folks so I can always choose who I get to work with in the event that companies shut down or get acquired or such and such. I feel the value of such a network does not get touted often enough.

That exists, but isn't super widespread. Some places will have you choose something (image, phrase, etc.) that they will display to you when logging in. If you don't recognize the thing shown when you go to login, don't trust it.
Thank you for that. I needed the laugh :-)
They're pretty small for a commercial reactor. But on the other hand nobody stops us from building them in parallel. The point is that they break existing rules: we'll stop counting reactors, for one thing, because numbers will mean a different thing. And also, more importantly, we need a lot less qualified operators to run them safely.
hypothetical nonsense -- whole cities in California cannot attract new Doctors or uniform police because the person working cannot afford RENT. public school teachers have been priced out of RENT for more than a decade. The ability to purchase a home comes only after personal capital is accumulated for most people. A recent study showed in California that in many areas, household income must be FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND per YEAR documented income to purchase an ordinary home. This housing system is top-loaded with capital for twenty years now.

nonsense like "oh maybe another five million would want to come here" is not only distracting, but bordering on cruel denial.
In addition, Every centralized storage, and every cloud provider lets you take a snapshot of a database's disks.

We can restore a 10TB disk in about 12 minutes. its much faster to snapshot, do migration, then if necessary, drop disk and remake from snapshot. (and then replay the replay any other WAL changes up to the exact second you want with a tool like barman, wall-e, pg_backreset, etc.

Postgresql backups are critical for disaster recovery, but the restores are so very, very slow, they should be a last resort.
PBS Space Time can’t be upvoted enough. It’s been delivering fantastic videos for years.
How many images with black background or black clothes are there if you use word "black" in the same query?
Sure.

But getting ground down by dealing with people around you that generate the same problems over and over, can get tiring.

I mean 2 basic areas:

1. Management turnover. New Managers, let's re-invent the wheel again.

2. New hires. Newer programmers that wont believe anything you say until they implement something incorrectly themselves. And you have to deal with fallout.

3. Should add 3rd -- New Framework/library/paradigm. Guess re-invent the wheel. Managers re-invent wheel because they don't know better, programmers want to re-invent the wheel just for hell of doing something new. Think these are 2 different cases.
It seems like problems occur from different firmware from the various motherboard manufacturers. I have a motherboard with a Ryzen 7950x and it would randomly not boot. I'd have to remove the battery from the system, let it fully reset, and then it would work again. Finally an update to the firmware fixed that bug.

Not in the dating game, but all I've heard is that it's the company themselves creating a giant fraudulent community of "hot young singles in your area". AI will only make this worse.
If your first sentence is true, pretty sure we will not be having a Gemini this woke.

If we care about the results, and the model showed an Asian and Black Nazi, then we know it is not really about the results.
Just like anything these days, profit comes when they bring the inference and hosting costs down. VCs are playing the scale game with AI companies
That's clearly not what they meant. Don't be needlessly pedantic.
Those numbers are inflated. I modded a smaller sub than WSB (still in the millions), went private during the API protests, and it consistently showed hundreds of CCUs when I was tooling with the sub.
Why though? It's much easier to do a simple API (or use a pre-made one like this one) from the web and the app. And no need to change the backend code on design updates.

I just don't get what you're chasing after. All this seems more complex (to develop, to maintain, to operate, to manage) than what I'm doing with (P)React (Native) and APIs.

And where are the thousands of pre-made components like React has?
Ah, yeah, the typical "you should had checked for the compatibility, it's you who are the problem, not Linux".

And yes, I never check for Windows compatibility before buying the actual hardware/software. Not even /s.
In stable diffusion we build x/y plots to evaluate the results due to seed variance. I find it interesting that LLM guys (seemingly) never do that, since their answers shouldn't be deterministic too.
I don't understand why base R silently converting integers into characters is seen as a positive? Especially coupled with the comment "In R there's rarely any uncertainty when loading genomic data", surely this just increases uncertainty?
On top of that, many seem to forget that Objective-C's ARC is the outcome of a project failure.

Apple did not add ARC to Objective-C because it was a great design, rather they failed to add a tracing GC in Objective-C 2.0 that wouldn't crash left and right due to the underlying C semantics, thus they settled with the 2nd best option, having the compiler automate Cocoa's retain/release calls (similar to VC++ extensios to deal with COM AddRef/Release).

Then sold the failure as a success, and improvement, in typical Apple's fashion.

Likwise, Swift had to adopt a similar approach if it was to stay compatible with Objective-C's runtime, otherwise it would need a complicated interop layer like .NET has with COM (RCW/CCW).
That's the point where hallucinations are pretty dangerous.
As someone who has never even tried to monetize youtube, I am shocked that having that sized audience still can't make a go at it as a FT job. Guess I will stick to programming.
Why is it glass with a plastic coating instead of solid plastic? Apple's use of glass has to be part of a scheme to make money replacing glass parts.
As a not-yet-homeless person, I continue to spend hours every week in libraries, a habit my parents enabled during my childhood. Outside of wild spaces, my house and those of some friends and family, libraries are the most peaceful, safe places I know of, and I would take refuge there as I struggled toward better.

I have been in numerous libraries occupied by patrons who seem like they haven't washed their clothes in weeks. It is only slightly bothersome, because I empathize with them- they are each a fellow human making a life and I try not to assume more than that. I am grateful that public libraries exist, AND we clearly need to make some changes at all levels of government so that libraries are not so overwhelmed.

What are some changes we might make?
Absolutely. That's very often how customs works. As a general rule, the sender is responsible for postage, while the recipient is responsible for customs, and the package only gets released to them once they pay it.

But many times there are no customs fees, so there's no issue -- it depends entirely on the pair of sending and receiving country and the category and amount of merchandise. That may have been your experience.

Generally speaking, customs can't be charged upfront with your order. Perhaps there are exceptions with certain delivery services in certain countries which have managed to modernize some of it, but I haven't come across that yet.
What is the complexity you are concerned about? All of those make sense to me even not having touched python in over a decade.

A new distributed version of Bitcoin is now processing 1 million transactions per second. It's doing this on a test network setup between the USA, Europe, and Asia. People said it could not be done. They were wrong. Proof of Work.

EDIT: I can see by the comments so far that nobody gets it. Well, you will get it in time. It's really happening, and yes, this is Bitcoin adherent to the original whitepaper, and in line with the original code base before it was hamstrung with unwise revisions and changes.

Mamba: The Easy Way
I used to enjoy reading John’s columns back in the day. I guess I always wondered in the back of my mind whether he was related to the keyboard layout Dvorak. Turns out he’s his nephew according to the article. Now I’m wondering if they are both related to the famous Czech composer.

Anyway, it’s pretty wild for me to think of a fairly plausible alternate history that could have developed if, say, Andy Grove had an unshakable belief in the power of neural nets in the late 80s and 90s and was willing to continually reinvest Intel’s huge x86 profits in that direction, developing TPU-like ASICs until they started working well for real world applications. We might have ended up with something like Llama2 7B 15-20 years ago (although inference would probably be painfully slow, like 5 tokens a second), or at least Whisper.
Thanks for the info and model! But if the thin glass is bonded to the aluminum frame by glue, would that not change the calculus? If we imagine hot air on one side of the thin glass and cold aluminum on the other?

I’m very skeptical of the “charging thermals cause cracks” theory, seems more likely that minor manufacturing defects might do so when the headset cools from a session. But I suppose we’ll hear more than we want to in the next few weeks.

There isn't a Java style GC, there are multiple implementations, including with reference counting GC algorithms.

I think you are confusing efficiency and effectiveness. Markets, when regulated, can be an effective way to distribute goods and services.
The average PS5 game seems to be around 45GB. Cyberpunk was 250GB.

Then Google it, there is plenty of research, otherwise you're JAQing off users that are pre-biased against drugs. Not a single serious study I see in the list (and these are across multiple countries) has hedonism anywhere on list of the most pertinent problems.

The Congressional Budget Office writes plenty about this and throws out statements like the following

>Some economists are becoming concerned about diminished competition among firms—especially those firms involved in Internet-based commerce—and its harm to entrepreneurship, and about the impact of noncompete clauses

Information technology has drastically changed the business landscape in such a way that it no longer looks or acts like the pre-internet world. Furthermore global marketplaces like Amazon allow entrepreneurs to exist outside of the countries doing the counting.
Maybe, but the business judgment rule is usually going to win if you want it to. Unsurprisingly, though, it’s rarely invoked to support doing something other than giving capital to shareholders.

I had a product idea for an AR app that would do this for everyone who's opted into it. So for real-world networking events, you might choose to disclose some things about yourself but only for that venue and only for some window of time for example.

I never built it, but it's perfectly possible to do.

The genius idea IMHO was the business model- If you were into certain things you wanted to keep private from most but only wanted to disclose to other people who were into those same things, you could pay a fee, and it would then show you others who were in that "market" (of ideas, drugs, sex, whatever). (It might only ask you to pay it if it found someone nearby who matched. And then it would automatically notify the other person unless you paid an ADDITIONAL fee... Not sure about the latter idea, but it was an idea.)

The only issue is everyone holding their phone up in front of their faces.
Right, but if you're a developer you might as well use something more developery. Like the selling point of Access was supposed to be that non-coders could use it to knock together a database.

In the late 90s I built some quite big things in Access and promptly regretted it. I guess Access got used for those projects because the organisation already 'owned' it as part of the Office bundle whereas Visual Studio 6 was seen as 'expensive' (I think it was about £500 per developer or something).

But these days that problem would not occur. The days of development tools needing comparatively expensive licences are over.
The first block are formatstrings, i don't recognize the third example.

Even if 'regular' companies stopped demanding GPU's from NVIDIA, that demand would just transfer to cloud providers, which would keep buying those sweet H100. It's not a misguided AI strategy that is pumping the price. It's just a regular gold rush.
IDK, I think it could be disastrous for users attempting to actually meet real humans to establish compatibility and have a relationship with. But there's apparently a bunch of demand for imaginary relationships with bots, and there's seemingly people who enjoy chatting on the dating apps but drag their feet about meeting up IRL. What if the platform "succeeds" by getting subscription fees from people who aren't comfortable saying they don't want a relationship with a real human to endlessly chat with someone who _might_ be real, or could be a bot, or could be a real person sometimes but employing a bot, ...?
There are many tax-advantaged accounts and methods that would likely come in before "perm life insurance" unless you're an insurance salesman ;)

If AI were just one thing, maybe not. But right now "AI" is LLMs, ML, the umbrella of "generative" (image, code, voice, video), and probably others I can't think of off the top of my head. I sure wouldn't bet on all of those fizzling out, and there are a lot of shovels to sell for each one of them.
Not often. I have nit rub into that problem, ever.
There's no hidden magic in the playground and in the demo app, we use the same API available for all customers and also the same JS client and best practices available in our docs.

To all your questions, I recommend playing with it in the API playground, you'll be able to test different image sizes, parameters, and have an idea of the cost per inference.

If you have any other questions, say hello on our Discord and I'm happy to help you.
