Why? Some of those ideas would require I write books to fill in the information needed to know before they could be understood.

I've debated doing a blog or having like resource website - I haven't done those things or anything like that bc what's the point?

I could know how to cure cancer but I will never be taken seriously by the society that exists now bc I haven't played along with it and I never will.

This post was clearly a moment of weakness - I am human after all, this is literally about me and people like me, all being discussed by people that are not, all arriving at conclusions that support their world view.

That's the rant of a crazy person, right?
I've seen heroin addicts aimlessly wandering around Berlin, I've seen drug addicts begging in Budapest, do you need more examples?

To say that these problems don't exist in many EU cities is a lie. What are you smoking? Because please pass it over.
TBH I don't think a server should be responsible to know all these things.

They should be able to answer specific questions or find out from the Chef. Ultimately it's up to the customer to understand the risks of eating out.
This is the reason I roll my eyes when millennials talk about setting up “their plex” or “their discord”. It’s not your sandcastle if someone else owns the sandbox.
They also have brand recognition, for what it’s worth. Every non-engineer in the world practically thinks AI == ChatGPT.
Think of it this way, on the one hand the building changes in value a bit every month. Sometimes it's up, sometimes it's down. And sure, there might be a bank-loan against the building.

But buildings are not revalued all the time. They typically revalue when they change hands. You might have it revalued (up) if you want to get a bigger loan, but it's not like the bank is running around revaluing buildings in case they went down. (It's not good for them to acknowledge it's underwater either.)

Both parties are optimizing for the _long game_. If the market is in a short-term slump (think < 5 years) then it pays the bank to wait for a recovery, and it pays the company to hang on.

Yes, if done at scale, across an industry, then the wheels can come off in a big way (as happened in 2008) but for short term fluctuations there's a polite understanding that it's in everyone's interest to carry on through the downswing into the next upswing.
Unlike DOOM, A browser would need to be able to make network requests, that could be a difficult aspect to handle.

What in the world am i talking about? I'm talking about the fact that i were there for 3 weeks the last time - lived in Brooklyn, and almost 100% of the times i took the metro downtown there were extremely unstable and mentally unwell people in each train, and often even in multiple wagons just walking around talking to people / the air / pissing themselves etc.

Absolutely nowhere in Europe will you experience that with that frequency yet, even though it's getting worse. Rough areas? Many. The weird guy here and there in the Subway, off course - but almost each and every time you drive in the subway - hard no! I lived in london for a few years and never really encountered any totally strung out people with their pants down, i did multiple times in NY in those 3 weeks.

Also off course i'm not talking about Williamsburg, a good example was going just north of the richest areas in Upper East side into Harlem, and wow what a contrast.
It's obviously not exclusive (it's available hosted from both Mistral themselves and Azure). I guess it could possibly be exclusive within some smaller scope, but nothing in the article suggests that. Azure is described as the "first distribution partner", not an exclusive one.
Mac OS used to boot from an HFS filesystem on a CD. I wouldn't be surprised if it could boot from Goddamn anything that could hold it today.
Agreed BUT… they are still useful for talking about roles, responsibilities, and the kind of staff you need for a team.

You just can’t trust that somebody who was Staff Engineer at Yoyodyne has the skills you’d expect from a staff engineer. Sometimes because of title inflation, but also for other reasons—some people really do weasel and connive their way into promotions. We had an L6 (here, the level of a staff engineer) who was an absolute menace, and was great at telling lies to management. Every company has people like that, so you always have to vet new hires.
There's a form and you put in all the VAT information of the foreign countries. You need their VAT numbers though.

That's how it works in Germany.

What happened to Font Review Journal? For a while it was my go-to place for flowery language about minuscule details in letter shapes. Looks like it hasn’t seen an update since before the pandemic. I know at some point Bethany Heck was working on a book version of it, but I can’t find any information about it actually being published.
How much would it cost to polish Jellyfin? $100k-$500k? Polish public goods, defends against corporate mechanics.
1. and 2. are closely related. High cost at least partially can be attributed to the requirement for nuclear to be in not the safest then at least safer than coal/hydro and many other currently used sources. Pretty much like people demand air travel to be the safest form of transportation. But given that without nuclear we would continue to burn coal/gas which is not risk free either may be the balance should be struck on the other point of the cost-safety spectrum.

Cute, but "le chat" literally means "the cat".

I presume most young Francophones who are likely to actually use Mistral will pronounce it in Franglais as "le tchatte".
IMO, the author should question their strong desire to juxtapose themselves with more junior developers rather being rankled by their different take on the same subjective labeling system on a self-marketing platform.

It was a beautiful, sunny day when my tiBook, the first generation arrived. It was exciting, Apple were building decent hardware again, MacOS X was on its way.

I unpacked it, plugged it in, and set up my Ricochet Modem.

A few hours later, the battery was charged and I left my office on Kingswell Avenue and walked down to the Ellis House, which was the closest bit of open, public lawn I could find.. I wanted to do 'that thing', surf the Internet in a random location outside in the realworld.

The Ellis House provided the perfect location. I sat there on the lawn, ssh'ed into my server back in the office, kind of astounded. "This is the future, and I'm experiencing it at the Bladerunner House, lol", I thought to myself.

I sent my girlfriend an ICQ message to join me, and bring a DVD for us to watch, maybe a small picnic too. She arrived a few minutes later and we watched the Final Fantasy movie on DVD, on my laptop, sitting on the Ellis House lawn, as the sun went down.

It was a classic moment I'll never forget.

Not a story about Taylor Swift
A hard question to ask because we don't know your use case, what kind of models you are using, if privacy is a consideration, all of that. I mean it is one thing to do super low power inference for wake words or something like that on the edge, another to do it on a customer's phone or PC, and another to have a huge model that runs on a cluster.
Yes, because you can sell them at a much higher profit margin in SF compared to “the other side of the earth”, even if you account for all the associated transportation costs.

I don’t think that existence of the massive purchasing power disparity between SF and countries where those drugs are manufactured is a giant revelation to most people.
It's not a problem from a moral perspective or anything - we all know these models are very expensive to create.

However, from a marketing perspective - think of who the users of an open model are. They're people who, for one reason or another, don't want to use OpenAI's APIs.

When selling a hosted API to a group predominantly comprised of people who reject hosted APIs - you've got to expect some push back.
Rejecting near hires by phone or video is much better than an email. At that point you’ve likely developed something of a real connection with the recruiter, hiring manager, and/or the team overall. I’ve had final interviews or fit calls feel more like onboarding or pitching me on the role and then get rejected. A chance to hear it in person and have a bit of closure with the other side makes it much easier to process in my experience.

It would be nice, however, to give at least a hint that there could be bad news coming to help with mental prep. If you’re thinking this could be a rejection or maybe discussing further interviews or something negative, you’re more prepared for the turn in fortune.
This reminds me of the Dink Smallwood source code release. In addition to the author saying he was somewhat embarrassed with the quality of his code I remember the changelog included something like "Removed over 1500 instances of the word 'shit' from the code comments".
Ted Xiao: long context window implications
Most SMRs are built kind of like giant AA batteries. You use them for 60 or so years and then swap them out, sending the old ones back to be re-processed in an off site location specialized for it.

What makes this utter fiction, would be getting approval from the various government agencies to transport the reactor to his home. Also getting a rail spur into his back yard. Then getting approval to turn it on.

In addition, it would be the equivalent of transporting a fully fueled Falcon 9 to your house... Small is relative! Then the transport out would be even worse because nuclear waste is even more regulated.
I’m basing it on my being a data scientist who does this.

> Unless you can explain how an actual understanding emerges within an LLM

Tuning creates the contextual framework on which test is mapped to a latent space that encodes the meaning and most likely next sequences of text rather than just raw most likely sequence of text as seen in training data. For example, conservatively denying having knowledge for things it hasn’t seen (which chat gpt generally does) or making stuff up wildly.

> you can't explain how it would answer the question definitely

Of course not. It’s a random behavior. It has plenty of flaws.

LOL - Your condescending tone tells me everything I need to know about the type of person that you are and your inability to control your own emotions when talking to someone you disagree with.

And, no -- I did not make a semantics argument. The point of defining capitalism was to emphasize the the fact that the US economy is not a truly capitalistic economy -- Uncle Sam is heavily involved; the article insinuates Capitalism is to blame. But you didn't read the article, did you? No, you didn't.

Also, I know the difference between public and private ownership -- I've worked in corporate law for a number of years. I've literally created the initial shares for newly incorporated public and private corporations. I currently work at a multi-national and we are about to go public, as well. While you Google these things, I do it for a living.

I'd also like to point out that I have no idea what you're talking about when you talk about Shareholders "counting" as private owners". Whether it's a private or public company, both fall under the umbrella of private ownership.

You're lost, bud; hope you have a better day and learn to have a conversation.
The cash required to develop and train the models makes the open-source approach challenging, if not impossible, for companies who don't have another business to support it. You need to be Meta - with a huge cash cow - to have the option to give away your work for free. After all OpenAI tried and came to the conclusion that it couldn't succeed as a pure open-source non-profit company no?

Pentium J5005, only quad core and no hyper threading, but it is Gemini Lake refresh so can do QuickSync without actually using the CPU. I believe it is something like 10 realtime 1080p re-encoding streams simultaneously. 2-4 4k re-encodes but I've not tested it that much.

Multiple USB 3.1 for hooking D4-400s to for ZFS, and two ram slots that claim a max of 8 GB but mines doing fine with 32GB.
There are some other titles that generally aren't BS: Lead, Architect, and Manager. They all convey generally accepted roles, and if your work doesn't align with your title, there's a problem.

Titles also matter when working in distributed teams, where a lot of the subtle signaling that happens in face-to-face situations is muted. I once pushed for a title change when I was going to lead people overseas, because it was very important that, if my team looked me up in the company directory, "on paper" I outranked them.

> I've worked with engineers who've been hired at a higher level than I believe they are due to negotiating their compensating package higher, which is frustrating too, as you can then expect more of them, when they don't necessarily have all the skills.

That's a real important factor, especially when playing "large company politics." In some cases, hiring quotas need to be met, and market conditions need to be met too.

But, when it comes to experienced employees who a company wants to hold on to, meeting their salary expectations needs to come in line with the title.

Well it helps that in those cases, it's a capital offense to even possess drugs in those cities so I'll take some drug addicts in my city over living in an authoritarian police state.

Also, let's talk abject poverty and economic disparity. Take a stroll around Mumbai and you'll see human suffering on a scale that will humble you. Try being a migrant construction worker in Dubai - many will call that modern-day slavery.

I started on plex too. Started switching around '21 and now I'm only on Jellyfin.

It stinks when a good piece of software goes bad, but if it does I start moving away. The thing that started me moving away was the first time my internet went out and I couldn't access my media stored in my living room because I couldn't reach Plex's login server.
I can breath weed smell in many, many Dutch cities, and even though they do have drug problems (and related gang issues) I have never encountered a bathroom full of syringes, nor found 2 people lying on the floor with needles stuck in their arms on the exit of a central station like I've seen in Market St. Muni/BART.

Perhaps there is more to it in America's society that create problems of despair than just the drugs...

Open source means "the preferred version for modification" and this fits with model weights since you can fine tune them with your own data. Modifying raw training data would be quite unwieldly and pointless.
Jellyfin is fine if you direct stream only, but any form of transcoding will kill your server. It is a bit hard to get other people to download the desktop Jellyfin Media Player or Infuse on iOS, and I don't think Android has a version of the app with massive codec support.

I think there’s an EU vs US hedge here too, Mistral is likely to be more compliant or at least more favored by EU regulators (see how Spotify’s GDPR violation is playing out https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/13/spotify-gdpr-data-access-f...).

That would be me.

I can change country with $60, it doesn’t mean I’m willing to pay $10/MB. I usually can get internet service for $10 or $20/month locally.

If I haven’t sorted out an eSIM before landing, it means I’ll be without internet until I go through customs. Airport WiFi isn’t at all a guarantee. What happens if I really need internet? e.g. some overzealous immigration officer really wants to see my hotel reservation or my return flight ticket.

I’d love to have a service that guarantees I have at least messaging in 60 (ad) seconds.

> trigger the patient to develop an immune response after a long prescription period

My doctor put me on low-dose MTX for this exact reason—here's hoping I never start to develop infliximab antibodies...

Regarding the price, I would also have to assume they're comparing generic v generic (even though generic adalimumab wasn't available in the US until this year!), so I wonder if the reason they're saying infliximab is more expensive is because of the associated nursing labor/infusion clinic/IV supply costs. I only paid five bucks for my meds at the last infusion, but had to pay $160 for them to infuse it in me!

Also, side note, the fact that a name-brand Humira pen "only" cost the NHS £400 in the UK (and likely cost even less for patients) is blowing my mind. They retail for about $3500 a pop here :(
