That's pretty much all generative AI does. It makes things up by design
I guess it might depend on language, but as a Spanish speaker who sometimes uses LLMs in Spanish, I'd say the gap between GPT-4 and most of the competition (Mistral included) is actually larger in Spanish than in English.
Linux also doesn't have the use case of grandma/grandpa. Gunshy small brick and mortar owners, kiosks, banks, employee who doesn't have privileges (both on the system and in writing) to update...the list goes on.

Forcefully rolling out the update is the only way it may ever get updated, in a lot of cases.
Yeah it's completely obvious what the context is.
The iOS version running on Apple Silicon is faster than the "desktop" app either way.
It feels conspiratorial but I'm having a hard time coming up with virtually any other reason that makes any sense whatsoever.
I didn’t say it supports all extensions from all browsers. Thanks to manifest v3 uBlock Origin will also not be viable on what is by far the most popular browser. Will you also say Google Chrome doesn’t support extensions then?

It’s not like Safari can’t do ad blocking. It can, and solutions like 1Blocker are quite capable. It can even block at the system level, which is more than uBlock Origin in the browser does.

Either way, none of this is relevant to your first comment. Extensions aren’t even necessary for the original complaint. Please don’t move the goalposts.
> Funny how environmental activists were powerful enough to kill the nuclear energy but not the fossil one.

It's a lot harder to affect something that's so firmly embedded in how we do things as a society. Blocking new nuclear developments was a lot easier than undoing generations worth of infrastructure around fossil power.

A comparison can be drawn to the USA's short-lived attempt at prohibition of alcohol versus the long-lasting prohibition of marijuana which is only now finally calling apart.

The one our society has been at least partially built around for generations has its problems normalized and mostly disregarded until something unignorable happens, which still often gets swept under the rug, where the alternative gets constant scrutiny and has to meet standards the established norm has never been held to.

The intuitive way for me to understand the Monte Hall problem is to pretended there are 1000 doors. You pick 1. There’s a 1 in 1000 chance you get it right. The host then opens 998 doors that don’t have the prize. Do you keep your original or do you switch? Are the odds 50:50?
I've never held a real dev job and too dumb for leetcode, and I call myself a "product designer" and still, I sometimes find myself helping senior engineering friends fix their React or CSS
> I, like many, stated “50-50” because the odds of getting one of two doors right is in fact 50-50.

Only if (in fact) it's an independent choice. It's not.

If the prizes had been juggled behind the curtain after one door had been opened, then you'd be right. But the "weird setup", which is the point of the puzzle, makes it clear.

Let's be real here: the point here for most of us is to think "oh it's 50:50", be proved wrong, enjoy being humbled, learn something new about how to interrogate a problem, and enjoy setting this puzzle to younger thinkers in the future.

Not to attack the (very closely-worded) description of the problem because you're upset to be wrong.

It's a probability puzzle and a character test for thinkers.
And it doesn't even solve the trust problem for anything off chain.

And even if it would than the question of which chain is the right one comes up.

Did you know there are fake nfts and you hardly can see which ones are real?

You literally need an initial trust anchor like a project website with https to learn about it. What a wonderful irony.
I suppose they didn't but Microsoft has a $3T market cap and OpenAI is theoretically valued at $80B.

OpenAI has 700 people, Microsoft has 220,000 people.

OpenAI is strong but they're still dependent on MSFT.
I guess it's the logic behind the vaccine mandate fearmongering. If one would want to reduce the population maybe the easiest method would be a stochastic approach by injecting at random a malicious agent affecting health or reproduction globally. Of course it would mean we do have such an agent and we know how to control it, which I doubt, but it's sound (and kinda painless).

Oil is a hell of a drug for civilization, and I'm not sure how we will willingly tune off of it, unless we chose a radically different economical organization.

But as many I am kind of hopeless as it seems competition, which fuel this need, is at the core of mankind (or at least the leading West)'s mentality.
Companies can reward employees one of three ways (1) Compensation (2) Fulfilling and self actualizing projects (3) Vanity Titles. Guess which one costs $0 and minimal effort? :-)
I'm quite annoyed that netflix let their DVD service just rot. For quite awhile I was using it as a nice value add to the couple of streaming services I had, to watch new movies or catch a single show from some service I wasn't interested in subscribing too. But then they stopped even replacing broken discs so there were holes in series so it lost a lot its usefulness.
The thing is that there is almost no lock in in the models. So brand recognition doesn't help much as people look into the benchmarks and price sometime in the future, if not when just starting out.

IDK, it's a can of worms. COMs, Services, HKEYs, Group Policies (local and forest), AD. I wouldn't fault someone for eschewing all that.
As a current Fi customer, I believe that's correct. But I think this is also aggregated across all devices. So if you use 1KB on 5 devices, I think you only pay $1. There's also a limit of 4 data-only SIMs.
I think the argument of induced demand is not so much we should never build or expand road infrastructure, that’s obviously asinine, but rather we should consider alternative transportation investments. Rail, dedicated bus lanes etc all increase rider density dramatically over cars. Induced demand will happen regardless of the mode of transport, but cars allow for an extremely low ridership density per lane. That’s really the point being made.

And if you look at the economics of road infrastructure it’s far inferior to other modes when you look at raw cost per person who can and will use it.

Lastly from an environmental, and safety perspective there are several other modes of transport that are far superior
> If you're ready for the next level

how does one know this ?
The author sort of alludes to it, but I will cast some doubt on the "every generation" theory that seems to prevail amongst most educated people. As the theory goes, every generation is just as tasteless, naive, foolhardy, ignorant, and as impatient as the last, and the perception that each generation actually _is_ getting worse in measurable ways is born from lack of experience or lack of wisdom.

There's no reason that this should be taken for granted. Institutions, governments, political parties, and entire cultures rise and fall due to local and global economic circumstances, wars, religious extremism, or even complacency. How odd would it be if young people were entirely immune to these effects?
Most companies are attempting to fine-tune their models to output truth, or putting in place external systems that pick answers that are true.

> Genie is capable of converting a variety of different prompts into interactive, playable environments that can be easily created, stepped into, and explored

If these are generating a fully interactive environments, why are all the clips ~1 second long?

Based on the first sentence in your paper, I would have expected a playable example as a demo. Or 20.

But reading a bit further into the paper, it sounds like the model needs to be actively running inference and will generate the next frame on the fly as actions are taken- is that correct?
Probably. I have to say, my 15 pros battery is so bad, on vacations I run around with a big powerbank all day long anyways...

You can also select automatic swapping between data providers between your two active sims. Now at least that must take more power.

But how much power does a standby connection not doing anything does?

Only two sims at once cam be active btw. Voice and data can be configured seperatedly and everything works perfectly.
Don't worry, every jurisdiction and bank will do the rounding of pennies differently, so you know, that's always a fun time.
I don’t understand how you can devote so many words to the staying power of “capitalism” and not once give any concrete sense of what the economics of an alternative would look like and how you would make it work. The degree to which people microanalyze culture seems bonkers to me. If you don’t like our current economic system, then it’s kind of on you to come up with a viable alternative using empirical evidence. Nirvana was a great band, but they have absolutely nothing to do with this.
AI Creativity Cycle
You can build wind to compensate some of this.

And of course a ton of short term storage.

And then you build a bunch of cheap, inefficient gas peaker plants for the two weeks a year where neither are enough.

At the moment it looks like that will be a lot cheaper than nuclear. But if nuclear gets cheaper, that’s also a great option!
> Of the cited hate mail Savant received, I have to wonder how many were setup with poor writing on the topic.

Have you spent at least equal time considering, given the tenor of much of it, how many were instead willingly exposing their simple misogyny?

You might be a bit younger than me, but I remember this well, and I remember this being one of my first introductions into the idea that men who are wrong will lash out with misogyny if it is a woman who proves their ignorance. Even academics.
Not my downvote bacause I'm with you all the way that groceries have not had the margin to attract the greed bros very significantly.

The cash-flow sharks will circle ominously, but seldom bite groceries when there are fat things like real estate and pure financial operations with a much sweeter underbelly.
"You've run out of flags! Click here to go to the Minesweeper Store, or wait an additional 2:29 minutes"

I can't even believe I'm saying this: but all joking aside, I MIGHT be inclined to buy a cosmetic skin for smiley if they offered it.
It is often cheaper in the US to fly than to take the train. If it is the same in Spain, it might have been price conscious consumers.
> Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?

Without additional assumptions this original wording is not clear, it could be that the host always shows a goat, then one should switch, or the host shows something at random and we just look at the cases where he shows a goat, then it doesn't matter.
Did that guy just categorize EBM as pop/soft? That is .. quite a stretch.
Direct Sales means there is personnel (inbound or outbound) selling directly to the customer on behalf of the Vendor.

If you sign up to AWS on your own credit card, there was no inbound or outbound sales motion at all.

AWS's self service motion is extremely efficient for lower tier customers (as the upside is basically infinite as you basically spend $0 to generate N dollars). <- This is also why YC's Request for Startups is mentioning Open Core startups, as the open source offering acts as a loss leader (eg. Kong, Hashicorp, Pulumi eventually)

Traditionally, companies like VMWare didn't support such a model and your only way to purchase was to jump on a call with their account team, but companies are transitioning to that to target low tier sales.
yeah, the overhead of another system for people to understand is non-trivial.

So your accounts can have N plans. Do each of those plans map directly to a sku that they are paying for?
> VMwares biggest customers will be getting deals apropriate to their offerings.

Maybe I'm completely out-of-touch, but an 8M$ contract should be sufficient to get "appropriate deals"?
Seems like punk as it would be today wouldn't be particularly visible. If alternative or countercultural ethos is based on an antithesis to something else then it's always subject to whatever that something else is. But if it's based on some deeper desire, truth or idea of which the "counter" part is only a symptom then it might just seem like it no longer exist because mainstream culture has moved beyond the original target of the counterculture.

As a pithy illustration: If I'm trying to hit a tree with a ball and that tree just happens to be in between some goalposts and someone comes along and moves the goalpost, I can still hit my target even if I don't "make a goal". To a casual observer it might look like I'm playing the game and I am. But the game in my head is not the game in yours.

edit: I didn't have this in mind when starting this comment but maybe that's the deeper desire behind punk and other countercultural movements; the desire to play your own game. And maybe capitalism is the end of history in the sense that it has adapted to make it easy for people to play their own game and keeps pushing the edges of what would have been counter previously. Want to drop off the grid and make everything you use and consume with your own hands? There's a hundred youtube channels about that. If you want to conquer Rome, you're still gonna travel there on roads the Romans built.
Not what I've seen in strength training or among people doing physical labor (including my wife who used to be a carpenter).
Barcelona to Madrid flights are around 10-20 euros and 1.5 hours (in the air).

The train is 20-100ish euros and takes about 2.5 hours. Though many trains are a hair over 2.5 hours so maybe that's exempt from this plan.

Wonder what leads to trains costing more than flights like that.
(3) is tell me you've never worked in HR without telling me you've never worked in HR. I've been involved in projects to change titles for engineering in a large org and just getting started involves millions in consulting money.
Yes, but when you use the app, it shows you the "LPA:1$..." code you need to activate the esim on any device. If you don't want to type it, you can turn it into a QR for scanning.
Spent the past week slowly moving my TOTP from Authy to 1Pass, since the desktop/browser plugin continues to work.
> There doesn't seem to be moats right now in this industry except for pure model performance.

Hard disagree. OpenAI's function calling is something no other commercial model provides, not even Gemini and Mistral Large.
Yes, although I wasn't very good at statistics in university (I found it too vague and non-math-y...), this one I never had much problems with; the fact that Monty is guaranteed to open a door with a goat and you already selected a door moved 1/3 to the door we both didn't select. You have the 1/3rd that you DID select the car, so the other he DIDN't select must have 2/3rd.
iOS version refuses to run on my Apple Silicon Mac because I have the security thingy disabled for debugging :\
It's also a good play to try to take resources away from local, self-hosted "Feasible AI" solutions. With compute resources, I think Microsoft hopes Mistral skews their focus and resources towards large models that can run only run in the cloud, trying to lure them away with the bait:
"Don't you want to build the best AI possible, independent of compute?"

I'd be surprised if they didn't consider the notion that they are hitting to birds with one stone: OpenAI and Indie AI.
Gemini and Google's Culture
I remember using Superset in 2017 or so, was forced to by a manager that would not pay for off the shelf software. I also did a few open source contributions to fix some bugs, it was a disaster. A huge rats nest of python. Might have changed in the last few years, am surprised its still active
You don't even need to drop down to a terminal -- there's https://github.com/dansomething/vim-hackernews (although it hasn't been updated since 2018) that interfaces with the API directly.
I do not disagree. Like many problems, the simple cases are okay, but it is what you don't know that can lead you down the wrong path. But this is true of almost everything I can think of in software products. Databases? OMG don't get me started. After some short amount of experience everyone will flinch if someone says "how hard can it be".

The issue I have is that while an article that gives people a heads up of what lies ahead would be very useful and helpful this was not that. Instead it was framed as "don't do it". Just not my cup of tea.
>In the long run the customer is king.

Traded companies don't exist in the long run, they exist to the quarter and if they 'screw up' (whatever that means) they are punished by the short sellers.

Companies can work just fine for some period of time providing nothing of value and long as they can keep investors hooked to the slot machine. I mean, this is typically how every boom/bust cycle works. The problem with boom/bust cycles is they can have society destabilizing effects if they are large enough. They key is moderating behaviors to avoid the worst outcomes.

Let's play with a silly analogy to example this. Farmers find out they can make a lot of money very quickly growing a cash crop of drugs. It only takes a few months to grow so they can harvest a few times a season. Huge numbers of farmers jump on this and achieve record profits... Then fall comes around and everybody starts asking "Where's the food at".
agreed, the "desktop" version has always sucked, but if you install the iPad version on macOS it works pretty well. Still buggy, but not nearly as bad as the regular app
We did achieve this with OIT for peanut allergy. Once we reached bite-safe levels, our lives literally changed for the better. We didn't have to worry about interrogating anyone serving us food (restaurants, friends, family), and we could go to some places that were just never an option before where cross contamination is likely or even expected, like ice-cream parlors. There's still a protocol we have to follow every day though, so an actual cure is still a dream for us.
Yeah. I think my program code was ten doors or something.

It was years before I understood the actual lesson here -- both the probability lesson and also the way it hints at the fundamental truth that in life, binary choices may have been weighted in ways you don't understand, perhaps by the people asking you to make the choice.

> and something like a Stripe integration very easy

What I did (and would recommend others do), was a deep dive into Stripes API when designing my schema. It doesn't even cost anything to create an account and run some test charges, refunds, disputes, balance changes, etc. Of course I was modelling a more complicated setup (charges on behalf of customers), but still, useful stuff IMO.

If you have access to an accountant / bookkeeper (relative?) that can help too.
Without knowing any specifics I would say the most universally useful tool to have in your nonlinear controls belt is Lyapunov control design and its extensions (if you're familiar with Lyapunov equations in linear systems that's where the connection starts). It leads to useful methods that are applicable to many systems, and allows you to handle some particularly tricky situations. Wikipedia's articles on these topics are surprisingly decent:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-Lyapunov_function
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backstepping
as well as Stanford's lecture notes:
https://web.stanford.edu/class/ee363/lectures/lyap.pdf
Check out Robust Nonlinear Control Design by Freeman and Kokotovic for more on this.

Compared to linear control theory, nonlinear controls is much more fractured and domain-specific. No concept is as widely applicable as ones from linear controls. Khalil's Nonlinear Systems book is generally considered a top reference, but it does start to get into the PhD-level stuff and I don't recommend it to a non-specialist unless you are really into this stuff. I can give more specific recommendations if you have a particular industry or application in mind.
ARED: Argentina Real Estate Dataset
Argentina is on the eye of many, due to the rarity of its anarchist-capital president combined with the characteristic chaotic economic scenario. The real estate market has been dropping massively for the past 5 years. ARED attempts to capture multimodal data, features and images for my dear country.
Most replications of the puzzle are incredibly bad such that one is led to the independent branch with little indication that there was an intent to examine the totality of circumstance.

I find the problem interesting for its historically poor examples floating on the internet and their application socially beyond a math puzzle.

That’s my view and point in commenting.
