First generation Tomahawk did this (TERCOM) but later blocks acquired image matching guidance which is presumably today very advanced (I heard about it first around 1988).
You’ll have all kinds of different bosses in your career. Most of them will not be looking to provide emotional support. It would serve you well to find someone outside of work for that, be it a significant other, family member, friend, or therapist. If it’s work specific stuff, a trusted co-worker.

The boss is likely in the same position as you, being told to enforce rules that don’t make sense, but that’s the job, and they have to pay the rent.

I don’t think I’ve ever worked for a CEO who even knew who I was, let alone asked how I felt. While the “all about the cash” comment is strange, I think the idea that the CEO is going to ask about your happiness is wildly unrealistic.

Without knowing the time off rules, and the type of work, it’s hard to comment on that. All I can say is make sure you know the rules and follow them. If you think they are unjust, then it may be worth finding a new job, but it’s hard to be upset at a company for enforcing rules the employees were made aware of. I’ve had bosses who let me take time off at the drop of a hat, and other bosses that wanted me to plan out the whole year at the start of the year. Your ability to adapt to these situations will dictate a significant amount of your success in your career.
I went to basic training and looking back on it, it's almost funny how easy it was compared to other training and situations I was in, but RELATIVE to my life up to that point it was way harder than anything I had experienced as a high schooler. and relatively speaking it was harder than any other training that came later that was actually more challenging. I'm not sure if that makes sense but i'm agreeing with you.

Yeah, in Social Sciences, Liberal Arts, your "reputation" matters more, which is really about connections.
Have you always worked in small to medium sized companies? Sounds like you might like a more employee-oriented company, which is often the larger companies.

For example, it sounds like your current CEO is very happy with the money he's making and has a very command-and-control approach to management. That works for a while but sometimes there comes a time when enough people get sick of the company culture and quit en masse. Tends to coincide with a period where it's hard for companies to find staff and it's easier to move jobs.

Time to start looking for another job. Be picky - ask about company culture, etc. Interview them!
They also shared a tampermonkey script to remove the ugly styling. They are intentionally not blocking workarounds.
As an aside, it is amusing that the younger generation engineers phrase it as "calculating GPS coordinates" rather than "latitude/longitude"

> The issue is when that 20 year mark hits and no one was ready but the automated systems were allowed to charge uncapped, 180x normal rate[0].

That is actually relatively normal behaviour for an electricity market. In my area the price usually jumps 2 orders of magnitude at the height of summer. It isn't a concern (the grid is cooked, but not because of peak prices). The market is signalling that it is worth having capacity available just for the peak - the cost of that type of redundancy is high, so the prices need to be high to make it happen.

Also, if the price is capped then the grid blacks out at that point. Uncapped is the way to go.
For example: pre-load satellite images and restrict navigation to radius covered by said images. In case of GPS failure, fail-safe to using image navigation for getting back "home".
Good luck finding a 'plain and simple' implementation that is as feature complete as either of those. International text layout is complex.

Pass by value is safer because you're less likely to accidentally modify data outside the scope of your function.
You are assuming GPS can only fail by being jammed; also consider the possibility of the hardware module itself failing.
> It's actually fairly easy to prove GPT doesn't understand. My current goto is the fox/goose/grain problem but condition that all items can fit in the boat.

Doesn't understand what exactly? That seems like a fairly open ended statement and almost certainly wrong as a result. GPT doesn't understand certain things because it hasn't seen those things or anything like it in its training data. How much do you understand about something you've never experienced before?

Would you be able to answer the fox/goose/grain problem if you were born in a box and could only perceive the world through a pinhole? It seems fairly obvious that LLMs have been exposed to a very limited slice of the world as projected through natural language, so their understanding will necessarily be limited, but not zero.

Multimodal LLMs noticeably improve reasoning here, and no doubt there are some model improvements yet to come, but people running around making unqualified claims like "LLMs don't understand anything" are just wrong.
That might be the reference they were intending.
The YouTube channel TheOperationRoom has a very well animated play by play (almost to the minute) of the air and ground war in gulf war 1 in Iraq/kuwait. In one of the videos he mentions tomahawks having to take a long route into Baghdad because it was the only one with enough terrain for the missile to follow to the target. This was 1991 so maybe older inventory.

I used a similar technique in a university class. We were doing a Connect 4 bot tournament, and I wanted mine to be as optimized as possible.

But in the end I spent all my time playing around with bitwise operations, so had no time left to add in multiple threads (so couldn't was slowed down by a factor of 4 or so) timing (so had to cut off the search early to not accidentally go over the limit), or to tweak the score heuristic.

Which meant my program only got second place. Still, I think the teacher enjoyed it, and there were some oohs and aahs when my program output moves basically instantly during the tournament.

I don't feel any abnormal weather at all. Neither in Singapore, nor in Germany (both places where I have family and regularly stay). In my 40 years on this planet, we have always had winters with meters of snow and we have always had summers so hot that they closed schools.

Both of these events were rare and they were AMAZING and everyone was either taking out their sleds or spending the day at the beach.

We have also always had floods at the Rhine river.

Physics prefers studying simple systems in isolation. Economics studies certain aspects of human societies. Because human societies are complex and pretty much anything can affect the behavior you are studying, you can't be good at economics without understanding every aspect of the society. Actual economists usually don't, because human lives are short.

>You can say that pretty much about any personal items -- laptop, phone, clothes, shoes, even your house. Manufacturing them cause harm to the environment and they're idle most of the time. Some of your clothes may stay unused for years, or forever. Yet nobody advocates for sharing them. That's because they are personal, reflect the owner's personality, and they're there when you need them.

This is just false. T shirts and shoes do not cause the same level of harm to the environment as manufacturing a car. It seems to me you don't understand what goes into mining, refining, processing all of the parts that go into making a car. You also don't seem to understand how progress happens - incrementally - by tackling the big-ticket items first. Good luck with your anti-public transport argument, you haven't convinced me.

>They discovered that appending dummy tokens (ignored during both training and inference) improves performance somehow. Don’t confuse their guess as to why this might be happening with actual understanding.

More tokens is more compute time for the model to utilize, that is completely true.

What they guess is that the model can utilize the extra compute for better predictions even if there's no extra information to accompany this extra "thinking time".

As someone who's worked at several NVIDIA competitors, including Groq, I can guarantee you that, based on my knowledge, of existing products, they would be able to make much more money should they have lower memory footprint models. Given the amount of VC capital deployed for this (on the order of 100s of millions), I don't believe this is a reasonable take.

Sure, NVIDIA et al may not want that (although, again I don't see why... they too can't produce chips fast enough so being able to provide models for customers now ought to be good), but there's so much money out there that does...

Assuming loss of GPS, no, not fail-safe. Weather conditions (or anything that obscures a view of terrain) can cause this type of navigation to fail.
That's a lot better than some frontend library adding an "Easter egg" so that every website using it, including some very serious ones, had Santa beards on their buttons on Christmas a few years back (can't find the story now). Of course you may argue it was users' fault who should have vetted every single line of their dependency, but let's be real.

Unfortunately there are a lot of unprofessional people in open source, and while I hate to stereotype, they are especially prevalent in the JavaScript community where it's typical to have hundreds to thousands of unknown dependencies in every project. What can be done? I don't know. (Before I'm labeled as entitled -- I spend a lot of time on open source, without the unprofessional behavior.)
This essay by Huxley said exactly what I have always felt but never articulated. The problem is far worse today than it was in his time. So much of recreation today consists of binge-watching Netflix. In addition, because Netflix has global reach, the world often watches the same content, devoid of local meaning.

I have realized that active recreation, although requiring overcoming a certain threshold of activation energy, is far more compelling and fulfilling than passive recreation.

AIQuire: Empower yourself with the intelligence of your data
War against car usage is war against middle class. Upper and upper-middle class will not suffer - they can afford what ever it costs and will keep their fancy parking places and if it leads to less traffic, they win even more. If you make all the fancy CEOs to use public transport then I'm in. Otherwise it is another form of disguised oppression.

Do you know what else is idle during most of the day? All the vehicles used for public transport or worse, they drive around empty. I'm a big fan of good public transport and were I live it is fairly good and I use it a lot, but it is not even near as good as would be using my own car - I have to normally double or even triple my commute time when I use public transport. I can afford it (for common good) as I'm working normally from home but if I had to do it daily then it would become unbearable.

I assume 'absolute wealth' means some amount (or not) of property, assets, that one's content with? Not like I'll be happy with 100k in the bank no matter how much anyone else has - because that just doesn't make sense, it's inherently relative; to care about the absolute value we have to mean real goods.

So then I think it's just plainly not true? I think most people even want particular things, not to have the same or more things as others. To the extent that it's clichéd parenting, or associated with derogatory remarks like 'social climber', 'keeping up with the Jones', etc.

Certainly Instagram and 'influencer' culture in general acts against that, but it's not hard to find people eschewing it either.
> All definitions seem to ultimately boil to "what I feel", which is vacuous. It is entirely possible that qualia aren't physically real in any sense, and are nothing more than a state of the system that the system itself sets and queries according to some internal logic based on input and output. If so, then an LLM having an internal self-model that includes a state "I feel heat" is qualia as well.

Is it "possible"? Absolutely. However, I have no means by which to measure, as you say, where at least with humans and animals I posit that their shared behaviors do indicate the same feeling, so I have some proof.

With an LLM, the output is a probability distribution.

Moreover, if it is as you say it is, then computers have qualia as well, which is scary because we would be committing a pretty ethically dubious 'crime' (at least in some circumstances).

Again, I just don't see it. Anything is possible, as I said, but not everything is as likely, by my estimation. And yes, that is entirely how I feel, which is as real as anything else.
It's an absolute mess. C-suite is 80% happy with their jobs, managers are 60% happy, and individuals are at 40% from the one study I read.

But the dysfunction in Python packaging is nothing new. Everything with adoption appeals to the lowest common denominator.

Another POV is that “code conductors” have always vastly outnumbered actual programmers, but now that Python is ChatGPT’s expertise, does packaging matter? People will use whatever packages the LLM’s really cool notebook interface ships with, and nothing more. The environment doesn’t even have access to the Internet, and yet: here we are. The next 20 million Python developers - almost outnumbering all professional programmer combined - are going to get away with literally never installing a package.
