I'd like C, but where I could use some syntax like:

typedef _Load("libvector.so")(int) vector_int;

to add arbitrary "builtin" types to the language. The idea being that "libvector.so" would use some spec-defined API to extend the core C language with the new features. This would replace a slew of features in the core C++ language (templates, classes, any sort of reflection, etc.), with some sort of 3rd party dylib you load. The idea is to keep the core language simple in the sense that it doesn't contain its own extension mechanism as syntax.

I think my only worries would be how to handle life-time analysis, i.e., the moral equivalent of destructors, copy constructors, move-semantics, etc; maybe the dylib ('libvector.so', in this case) has to register stack-clean-up, copying, and move-semantics code-generation for the compiler?

Great point! Theres's some room for the prompt to improve~
Interesting. As I was reading, I was thinking, someone could make up stories like these about the past and rewrite history, especially with "AI" image generators, and "AI" authors. AI, write me a morbidly-curious, PG-rated alternate history story about the Michelin Man. Assuming we can trust the publisher, then at least the time stamp dates it before "AI", but that doesn't prevent someone from making stuff up, it was just not as easy as today.

Isn't the Guinness Book of World Records like this? in the sense that it gives people the opportunity to find something nobody else has done and gain some kind of status that didn't really exist before.

I absolutely loved watching the show "Record Breakers" as a kid, we should try to expand opportunities in this way it seems very positive for society.

ADHD is a spectrum, so it can have different severities. Some people simply find it more difficult to function well whereas some people find it absolutely and utterly impossible.
Hopefully not totally gimped like Gemini. Are they releasing an uncensored version?
I love the absurdity of it all. It makes it a unique website/blog in the ocean of sameness.
They gave you everything you asked for. I don't see a reason for you to be miffed, unless it is at yourself. If someone else managed to negotiate a better deal, that's not a transaction that you were involved in or should concern yourself with.
Perhaps the the founder is complaining about the guy because he isn't receiving the value from the sales guy that he feels he should based on what it cost him. If so, that will sort itself out, eventually.
I'd ask myself this question, "Would I be happy with the deal I have if I didn't know about the deal the sales guy has"? If the answer is yes, then just stay where you are and work to make good things happen.
Finally! I was impressed by the together.ai approach to trying the chat models without having to deploy your own and was curious why Hugging Face didn’t have that type of interface more consistently available. Now to see HuggingFace make as many models available as together.ai does, they still have a good lead in that regard.
Not naive - it is only disappointing level of insanity that still gets through and some business people like PMs or BAs are there to shield devs yes - but there are also vast amounts that don't do their job properly and all turns into basically game of "Chinese whispers" or "human telephone". I don't need someone to copy over what customer wrote from e-mail to Jira that is not what the job is about.
just use firefox.
The irony is that graduating from the status game is one of the most rational things a person can do to fully realize their humanity, but the tyranny of the status game is argued to be inevitable by "rationalists" who'd then turn around and complain that people don't act rationally often enough in other situations. Your need for status is just another way that you're vulnerable to being manipulated by others, albeit highly indirectly. It is true: you need a certain amount of status to do things, but the amount is different for everyone.

Staying trapped in the "everything is status" mindset is just projection, ultimately.
I am quite certain this is coming from CrowdStrike, I have never observed this behavior prior to its installation.

I agree. Communes were only privatised in the early 1980s, and I think that is a better marker for the end of communism in China.

I think it is quite possible, but you have to be committed to it and you have to have a bit of contempt for other people's opinions about things that don't matter.

Probably the easiest way to do it is to try and live on as little money as possible, spending money on only things that can be logically justified. Of course you have to be honest with yourself, since self delusion in strong in humans.

I buy very simple clothes, no jewelry, the cheapest food, try not to own more than I need to and try to be rational about housing and a car.

It has the great benefit of not needing much money to live and the freedom that it brings. The rat race is a very real thing.

It doesn't really work if you have a family, or a certain kind of social life, but otherwise it's actually quite fun.

It's easier to monitor people in an office than it is to give them company owned computers with spyware on them? It's easier to monitor people at the watercooler than to read their slack DMs?

The same holds true for remote work. Your unwillingness to join too many remote happy hours is noted.
They're really trying hard to avoid saying what kind of "models" these are. I think they're language models, but it's hard to say for sure.
I use an app called Seek by iNaturalist. Although I do not participate in the online community, I enjoy getting the tiny dopamine hits when I reach one of its "achievements" or complete a "challenge". Takes me outside and helps me pay attention to my surrounding more than usual.

(It is far from perfect app, but way better than sitting front of screens all day and night.)
In fact my first reaction would tend to be the same as yours but then again,

- If you read the whole article you see that it is in fact a pretext to a subscription.

- There is in fact burried advice. The fact that reading articles like this is exciting and gives hope, but might turn out to be false hope in the end, especially if you have a severe form of ADHD. The advice is YMMV.
Toyota might be the exception.

Not at all. When you're the underdog, it makes perfect sense to be open because you can profit from the work of the community and gain market share. Only after establishing some kind of dominance or monopoly it makes sense (profit wise) to switch to closed technology.

OpenAI was open, but is now the leader and closed up. Meta and Google need to play catch up, so they are open.
I'm not making excuses I am trying to give my theory on their error which was simply to not spend the money to do a real test before doing a demo.

So do these major manufacturers sell different models in Norway and Quebec?
I don't dislike this idea as much as many do in principle.
But it would indeed allow companies to abuse me. Would only be good when there is enough competition to keep prices down.

Problem is then you'll have to pay a premium for people who are careless with their appliances, or just use them 10x as much as you etc.

And of course this allows the lender to make profit margin as well. So as a consumer, I end up paying more.

But still, for many appliances and devices which I am not an expert in repairing, I'd be OK with this deal.

Many tenants here do this already with the lender being their landlord.

I knowingly pay a premium to use a simple bike with this model:

https://swapfiets.com/

(they're pretty successful here in Europe / NL and germany at least)

I know that the price for this exceeds a good used bike after a year or two at most.

But it often took me months to getting around to fixing my bike, I'm not very good at it, and professional bike repair is also expensive and takes me time.

Renting the bike is still more expensive, but it allows me to have a working bike without hassle; and if something breaks it takes a maximum of a workday or two to have it fixed or get a replacement.
Only 8K context as well, like Mistral.

Also, as always, take these benchmarks with a huge grain of salt. Even base model releases are frequently (seemingly) contaminated these days.
Insurance companies should reflect unlock vulnerability of a car model in its premiums. That still leaves the problem that few people look at insurance premium when choosing what car to buy. What would help is a widely used certification system kept up-to-date by certification authorities in cooperation with insurance companies, similarly to what we have in place for a car model's fuel consumption.
Fibonacci's Real Mathematical Legacy
I have been programming in Rust since late 2012. I don’t think I have ever run into a soundness bug like this in the wild.

That doesn’t mean that it never happens, but it is a very rare occurrence, not something that Rust programmers deal with regularly.
Well aye, if there was one everyone agreed on I'd have just cited it instead of going on a mad ramble that doesn't answer the question :P

My favorite prompt to throw at LLMs:

Two cars have a 100 mile race.
Car A drives 10mph. Car B drives
5mph but gets a 50 mile headstart.
Who wins?

So far, no LLM gets it consistently right. Most of the time, they confidently declare one of the cars as the clear winner.

Sometimes the explanations are so convincing, that I begin to wonder if my own conclusion - that the race will be a tie - is wrong :)
Google released the T5 paper about 5 years ago:

https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.10683

This included full model weights along with a detailed description of the dataset, training process, and ablations that led them to that architecture. T5 was state-of-the-art on many benchmarks when it was released, but it was of course quickly eclipsed by GPT-3.

It was common practice from Google (BERT, T5), Meta (BART), OpenAI (GPT1, GPT2) and others to release full training details and model weights. Following GPT-3, it became much more common for labs to not release full details or model weights.
We wouldn't have had heartbleed if the SSL/TLS designers hadn't thought it necessary to include a heartbeat protocol - precisely because they couldn't trust TCP on its own to do this. (Why one would ever want to send a 4KB heartbeat packed beats me though.)
If you're going to make the assertion that this disproportionately affects women, and don't cite any evidence other than "this might affect spouses of military members who move a lot" I have to question the basis for claiming this affects women more than men. Especially because there's strong federal legislation that would effectively bar Dell from government work/contracts if they did anything that even remotely smells like they are attacking the spouses of military members.
LLaMA 3 with >=70B params will be launching this year, so I don't think this is something that will hold for long. And Mixtral 8x7B is a 56GB model, sparsely. For now I agree, for many companies it doesn't make sense to open source something you intend to sell for commercial use, so the biggest models will likely be withheld. However, the important more thing is that there is some open source model, whether it be from Meta or someone else, that can rival the best open source models. And it's not like the param count can literally go to infinity, there's going to be an upper bound that today's hardware can achieve.
This is part of my issue, too. Not having no things to do in a short amount of time, but knowing that I don't have time, preventing me from starting. A lot of people have the ability to just dive in regardless of how much time they foresee having. I don't. I need to have time in order to feel safe starting anything.

In the hours preceding something like a doctor's appointment, I can't do anything. Anything I start will be interrupted by the appointment, so I can't even try.

This has to be one of the dumbest things I've read in a while.

All vehicles are insecure. I can hook a tow truck to almost any vehicle, including an 80,000 lbs tractor trailer and drive off with it. That'd actually attract less attention that outright hotwiring a vehicle.

The solution is to identify, arrest, and prosecute criminals. Which the government is not obligated to do in the US.

I didn't read it as embrace the chaos, rather to not fixate on the perfect non-chaotic day that's coming (it isn't). Instead adopt a "continuous improvement" stance where any little deviation from total chaos is a win. Iterate that process. Basically the same thing as continuous delivery: start delivering a crappy thing and progressively fix issues / add features until it's done.

>It is my belief that China will steal what it can, corrupt who it can, threaten who it can and most importantly, re-invent what it is missing

So, from 10,000ft I see what you're saying, and might even agree.

But what possesses someone to describe a people or country like this? We do the same with Russia; "other" them, like they have inherently "evil" traits. As if the US isn't above or involved in espionage.

I guess I'm confused how otherwise seemingly intelligent people can look at another country and think their people are fundamentally different. But god forbid you point that lens at the wrong group.
Sam Altman is one of the founders, so for your impression to be right he'd have to be sidelining his own hopes.
Extreme forms of procrastination do not mean that someone has ADHD by definition. It can be rooted in anxiety, stress, depression, other mental health conditions. It can be lack of motivation, or simply the habits and behaviors one has developed over time.

I’d really like to know in addition to personal anecdotes of successfully overcoming it, what on average turns out to be most effective?

Probably "Jemma" (the superior spelling of the name). It's a play on their "Gemini" product.

That’s an insane expense for monitoring alone.

The average cost is $37.64 per square foot and ~250 sq per employee (you don’t just pay for cubicles) it adds to ~9.5k / employee per year which is far from insignificant.

Worse it’s dangerous as layoffs don’t instantly end leases and downturns are terrible times to try and sublease office space.
Is having a chronic rhinitis, or diabetes, or deafness, a block to function in a modern society? No, thousands are living with them mostly normal daily lives. Are they illnesses? Yes definitely, and we treat them with meds issued by doctors.

Same with ADHD - it an illness and should be treated as such. I likely have undiagnosed ADHD. I'm ill. I need and want treatment (just afraid because of that same ADHD). What's the big deal with calling illness an illness or mental health disorder? Me being ill doesn't make me a lesser human like some apologists of "new normal" try to describe. Just like my rhinitis doesn't make me a lesser human. Both are illnesses, no big deal.
I recommend spending some of your $1.12 million on some psychiatric help.

This is just how the brain works. People who claim they can do a hard focused task in 20 min chunks are faking it.

Yesterday there was this post [0] on Ivy League's wanting to separate
ideology from teaching. As if that were possible.

We can read plenty regarding the decline of academia under leftist
ideology. The long march of postmodernism is supposed to have corroded
everything, decolonising curricula, celebrating diversity etc, etc.

Sure. That may well be true.

But equally true, through ferociously ignored is the parallel march
of the ideological right in universities.

Just as there are some liberal arts degrees that teach Marxist
feminism, Foucault and Derrida we have MBA's, which are equally
ideological. They're steeped in the values of the Thatcher-Reagan era
and right-wing economic theories. Their totems - Hayek, Strauss,
Schmitt, Mises, Friedman are less well known than those on the left.

Nonetheless these often discredited ideologies are presented with the
rigour of Maxwell's equations.

Off they confidently stride into the world, to run amok doing harm
every bit as egregious as their left-leaning counterparts.

I've taught some of these kids in a business school, and honestly by
year 3 they are utterly lost - all the hallmarks of cult-like
brainwashing are fully in effect. Where the sceptics win over the
strident zealots, is at least with the lefties there remains chink of
openness to new ideas. An MBA is an MBA for life.

I run every day but totally struggle with work consistency. I have always wanted to transfer that discipline I have for running to work life but never managed it.

I think the thing about running is I can’t just start watching YouTube and procrastinating along the way. And it’s much more straightforward - same every day with predictable and consistent reward. Plus there’s the adrenaline release.
We'll end up banning windows at this rate, they're an egregious vulnerability in cars and buildings alike. American cities, soft on crime, can't stop thieves from breaking windows so maybe they'll go after car manufacturers and construction firms instead. Going after companies instead of criminals is more aligned with their left-wing sensibilities, I think that's what this is really about.
