Why did you need a source for this?
I don't know why they went with patch files instead of forking chromium and rebasing the changes via git.

They document how developers should "rebase" chromium:

https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/wiki/Chromium-rebases...

And it looks like way more work than doing it with git via

git rebase chromium/master

I think Tenstorrent is based in Canada. At least Jim and his team are all from Canada, and their headquarters seems to be there. Probably more complicated than that but it isn't so clear if this would apply.

I had some battery issues with my previous BackUPS 750 but once I got a new battery, things were fine with apcupsd. Have been on a BackUPS-Pro 1500 S for a couple of years now also using apcupsd and zero problems. it legitimately records a low power event when my Brother printer first starts up, switches to battery then comes right back. Similar happens when it's stormy here and power lines are going down and being re-routed.

Carelessness is the default behavior of humans when it comes to the environment.

When "native Americans" came here via the land bridge in several passes one of the first things they did was wipe out the megafauna.

Europeans transferred many of the most valuable plants (wheat, corn, potatoes, ...) between continents they also transferred all of the worst weeds and plant diseases.

Maybe someday people will wise up about it but they haven't yet.
heh, I'll throw my formial (https://github.com/nathanstitt/formial) project onto this thread. I probably need to update it a bit but it's been working well in production for 2+ years now.

I like the Orbital Index's weekly newsletter. https://orbitalindex.com/
Hi, one of the authors austin here. Happy to answer any questions the best I can.

To get a few common questions out of the way:

- This is separate / independent of llama.cpp / ggml. I'm a big fan of that project and it was an inspiration (we say as much in the README). I've been a big advocate of gguf + llama.cpp support for gemma and am happy for people to use that.

- how is it different than inference runtime X? gemma.cpp is a direct implementation of gemma, in its current form it's aimed at experimentation + research and portability + easy modifiable rather than a general purpose deployment framework.

- this initial implementation is cpu simd centric. we're exploring options for portable gpu support but the cool thing is it will build and run on a lot of environments you might not expect an llm to run, so long as you have the memory to load the model.

- I'll let other colleagues answer questions about the Gemma model itself, this is a C++ implementation of the model, but relatively independent of the model training process.

- 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.

- I wrote a twitter thread on this project here: https://twitter.com/austinvhuang/status/1760375890448429459
AWDL on Macs can interfere with your WiFi connections
This is a PSA for Mac users on wireless, as it surely quietly affects many others. Please don't upvote this but let it roll off new, hopefully having helped someone along the way.

For years I've endured the fact that my Macs see periodic latency spikes when connected to WiFi. My Windows box on the same band / router would see solid 1ms pings to the router all day long, but my Macs would jump to 100ms+ for several seconds every 11 seconds or so. It compromised any streaming type activity, such as video conferencing or cloud gaming.

Today it irritated me enough that I actually dug into it, learning that there is a feature on Apple devices called Apple Wireless Direct Link (AWDL) which forcefully changes the channel of your wifi chipset periodically if necessary to (speculatively?) connect with other Apple devices. In the case given I'm seeing these spikes while simply using my Mac and not actively or intentionally using AWDL functionality -- I'm not pasting files across devices, screen casting, etc -- but still the jumps to 100ms or worse (sometimes 300ms+).

AWDL has a fixed set of channels that it uses, and by setting my home wifi router to the same channel AWDL uses (149 for 5Ghz in NA), it no longer performs the channel hopping and my ping is a constant sub-4ms, averaging about 2ms. Huge improvement.

Logically this means that there would be interference, and indeed some vendors recommend avoiding the AWDL channels preemptively, but using the AWDL functions like pasting across devices and I see no negative impact on my other wifi consumers.

The video is from 2021. It's long but the honesty and humility of this guy is amazing. Despite being dealt a really bad hand in childhood he was able to pull himself up. Some of the hacking stuff he describes from his youth (e.g. phracking) may bring back some cool memories to the HN crowd.
Back in 2009, I ran a project to convert a bunch of paper forms into InfoPath for online forms. After a few months we gave up on InfoPath:

- We still had to have paper forms for legally required forms in case someone didn’t have a computer, etc. so then we needed a regular printable PDF. InfoPath native forms had issues with printing.

- The InfoPath-PDF integration was not very good and not usable for my production.

- The data on the other end went into bizarre formats and thus needed a job to convert it to the format we needed (and take action).

In the end this solution was deployed, and shockingly is still online and in production in 15 years later:

- A graphic designer (often an intern) took the original paper forms or fillable PDFs and made basic HTML forms with them.

- jQuery used for user friendly form validation.

- These forms were integrated with an SSO to allow e-signing.

- “Print” and “Submit” buttons on the form invoked a Perl script which (1) transformed the HTML form to having the content filled in, (2) ran headless Firefox and print-to-PDF to archive the form for legal purposes, (3) stored the form values in the native database, and (4) fired off a stored procedure based on the form name.

In effect, the same things InfoPath was supposed to do, but it didn’t need a dedicated administrator or complex integrations.
If 10% of customers have passwords that now can't log in and submit orders, that would be an emergency.

We're taking OP's word for it that FedEx doesn't allow certain characters as passwords (actually, from the description, it seems more like FedEx only allows specific characters which is even worse). If either of those are true, it is most certainly a defect. Whether FedEx treats that defect as an emergency is up to them I guess. I'm saying many modern companies would.

You originally said "Weird password issues don't count as broke." I think this might just be a case where we have to "agree to disagree".

Lol, wtf.

Humans do not exist as entities to serve businesses for the grand goal of entrepreneurship. I tend to believe people that think this way have their own work addictions that are just as harmful as addictions to substances.

Furthermore your 'decrease in entrepreneurship' should be suffixed with 'where I am'. And when you put 'where I am' suddenly you'll run into a bunch of much more likely culprits such as 'administrative burden and bureaucracy', 'IP and copyright laws/legal complications', 'successful large businesses paying knowledge workers and keeping them out of the self market', 'tax burdens for self employed workers'

Drugs is going to be so far down that list in most places that it's not a serious consideration.
Fixed!! Thanks for finding that
Yeah, especially with how much Google is hyping it.

It could have been long context? Or a little bigger, to fill the relative gap in the 13B-30B area? Even if the model itself was mediocre (which you can't know until after training), it would have been more interesting.
>> The reports all mention that the crack became visible suddenly and for no apparent reason, after the headsets had been connected to the external battery pack and stored overnight (some in Apple's Travel Case) with the soft front cover attached.

The battery is external, but mobile. The users may well have stored it inside the thing. Plus, it is understood that this device continues to draw power while not in use, which also suggests a possible thermal gradiant.
If transformers can plan, then AGI only requires better education...
What about discouraging wealth inequality and the lack of social support for the population in general? This would be a horrifying interference of the state in the dynamic of society, right?

It would be a huge surprise for Apple if a lithium battery inside the visor caused the cracks, as they did not design the head unit to include any internal battery.
I wouldn’t expect anything meaningful at what is essentially a year and a half into the practical build cycle. Top to bottom nothing is optimized, use cases not fully established.

There’s an awful lot of FUD on HN about this being like crypto. In a decade of trying I never found a meaningful and practical use case for crypto beyond “HODL.” For generative AI we are finding immediately useful applications under nearly every rock we turn over, with increasingly powerful results. These aren’t speculative, they’re allowing us to do things at scales we couldn’t imagine a few years ago. I’m seeing this with most my professional network involved in high end tech. The tool chains suck, and we are limited by GPU capacity as well as inference costs, but these are short term constraints. As patterns solidify the tool chains will too, GPU capacity is ramping up rapidly, and there are plenty of optimizations on the horizon.

I for one see this much more akin to the gold rush of the internet over the 1994-2020 time frame in super fast motion. Will we overshoot? Absolutely. But the effect is real.
"Works for" is one way to put it - he's CEO and (I think?) co-founder..
I'm not saying everybody should be an entrepreneur, far from it, but a decrease in entrepreneurship at a societal level hurts everyone. You can see that too, right?
Data _can_ tell you what to do, but that doesn't mean your data selection and gathering was precise, right, and aligned to your actual best interests.

This depends on the bank. If you have a checking account with the same bank, the funds can be available right away. The standard withdrawal frequency limits still apply.
At one of my addresses FedEx will happily sell anyone overnight shipping and then just keep the parcel at the depot for a week until they have a driver who can actually make the trip. I have had like 6 very urgent packages delayed like this. Once my wife ordered something perishable and they pulled this then told her she had to drive into town and pick it up at the airport.

I've also been nearly run off the road by FedEx drivers on the highway before. One guy was so angry that I was only going 10 over that he tailgated me within a foot and then punish passed me.

They're also the only service that still corrects my other address to the wrong address. I tried for a whole month to get ahold of anyone there who even knows what address correction is and then just stopped using them for anything important.

They doubled down on "digital" during the pandemic and fired a bunch of CSRs and stuff. It doesn't look like it's working out very well for them.
>Hearn, the collector whose initiative helped investigators get to the bottom of the scam, believes that Morrisseau’s identity as a part of a marginalized group was helpful to the crooks. The success of the fraud ring, he says, “illustrates the perpetuation of the problem with the relationship between Indigenous people and colonizers.” The fraudsters were betting on a lack of outrage when Morrisseau’s reputation was tarnished.

Because this aspect is important in Canadian history. Especially when…

>Hearn’s investigative team found that, for years, Lamont and his wife had helped oversee a group home for Indigenous youth. Dallas Thompson, the Anishinaabe man who knew a Morrisseau relative, said Lamont operated the home as a virtual factory for producing fake Morrisseau paintings. Under Lamont’s direction, youths and other Indigenous people in Thunder Bay were paid—or forced at threat of violence—to create Morrisseau look-alikes by the hundreds.

Arms exports to Israel must stop immediately: UN experts
I don't partake in cannabis, or much alcohol (ie one social drink once a week).

The reasons I haven't tried entrepreneurship are much more about financial risks.

Rent is expensive. Homeownership is barely attainable anywhere near an economically active metro area even with a decent tech income.

Healthcare is expensive and unpredictable. Insurance is expensive without an employer subsidy and insurance pool.

I think a great argument for better social safety nets and decreased housing costs is a lower barrier to entrepreneurship. If the policy answer for every question on paying for living is "Just get a good job with a good salary and benefits from MegaCorp" that isn't really conducive to striking out on your own.
How do you know? Can we actually see that increased productivity in any objective economic metrics?

> Not so, because the first two will reduce the rate at which new pandemics emerge

I agree that those items are worth doing for other reasons. But I also question whether pandemics even operate in the way that we've been conditioned to believe.

> Those risks still exist, the wet markets just need to end completely, while for the bio labs it's always good to have people imagining various ways things could go wrong in order to make them not actually go wrong outside of our imagination.

The fact that biolabs haven't been regulated at all (in fact, even the notion of investigating biolab safety has become some sort of partisan issue) should be a huge clue that the COVID response has been a political operation.
Ha, very good point. If only adults ran the world.
There's nothing wrong with that. Just within limits. As you say, moderation is key.
> "die kontrollierte Weitergabe von Cannabis durch Anbauvereinigungen"

This does not sound like you have to "join a club", you just have to buy directly from a club.

(… reading actual text now to check …)

Nope, nevermind… §1 Abs. 13:

"Anbauvereinigungen: […] deren Zweck der gemeinschaftliche nichtgewerbliche Eigenanbau und die Weitergabe von Cannabis zum Eigenkonsum durch und an Mitglieder sowie die Weitergabe von Vermehrungsmaterial ist."

⇒ you either have to grow it yourself or be a member of an association that grows it; can't buy directly from a club if you're not a member.

It depends on what your emergency fund is for.

Most people posting here have enough unused credit card "headroom" to get them through a month; so the main thing for an emergency fund is that you can get the cash out of it with low or no cost within that month.

Some use bond funds to do it, some use bond or CD "ladders" - buy a bond expiring in 12 months that is 1/12 your emergency fund each month, and in a year you'll have a rolling "self built fund" that you can get 1/12 of every month with no penalties.

They didn't say anything like that.

Anyone who's worked in tech for a few decades knows that what the OP describes happens regularly.

There's nothing patronizing about sensing the pattern forming again here, and recognizing that the only sure thing is that the doe-eyed forty-niners racing to California all need pick axes and camp supplies and that the axemaker is going to get rich on their dreams no matter how things turn out.

It doesn't suggest that there's no gold out that or that the game theory calculus that sends everybody chasing that gold is unsound. No individual is being called stupid.

It just emphasises that a lot of people are going to make the wrong bets on AI, using more money than they really could afford to lose, and that NVidia is the only guaranteed (absurd) winner so far. There's nothing patronizing or even contentious to that.

In what way are Tyler Perry’s movies culture war movies?

They’re not “woke” at all. They’re all incredibly conservative and Christian. They’re just made for a black audience, which has clearly made Tyler Perry very, very rich.
