> nobody ever sad that dd deletes sentences.

This can't be more obviously wrong:

> If a sentence of length 'n' resides on a single line, wrapping on-screen, deleting the sentence is just 'dd'.

No wonder with fails like this you resort to style arguments

> Wrong. You can extend selections. Read the manual.

Wrong. Moving within a selection can't extend it.

Amongst the other examples, IoT. 10 years ago it was still in its infancy. As an example, Amazon didn't acquire Ring until 2018. beyond just smart home stuff, payments like Apple and Android Pay impact daily life. The EV boom is also a massive part of IoT. Every TV is now a smart TV (which is miserable, but that's a whole other discussion)

And an IoT world has nearly as many drawbacks as it does benefits, but I think it's hard to argue it hasn't changed the way we interact with the internet in our day to day lives.
There's "Browser GPT" in the GPT Store which uses sider.ai to search the net and tends to do it liberally.
I don't disagree, but its a good thing that we can buy Ferraris and Kias and let everyone decide what's best for them.

I think foreign doctors could fill a niche there too. I don't know why we have people going bankrupt due to medical bills when we have foreign doctors that could drive prices down significantly so that the poorest or underinsured could benefit.

That's based on the assumption that every employee contributed to improving the game engine. They went from 2700 to 7700 employees during the pandemic. They could fire the bottom half of those people and still be way ahead where they were a few years ago.

It absolutely is not "independent of how the show operated." The host knowing in advance where the car is, (thereby ensuring the revealed door is always a zonk) is essential. If the host just picked a random door every day, and sometimes did reveal the car prematurely, then it would in fact be a 50-50 decision to switch.
Biden is not really the U.S. President at the moment. He is a wooden puppet that signs and says anything that his handlers put in front of him - and that too with extreme difficulty. The U.S. presidency is currently held by a small, powerful governing cabal that consists of folks like Jacob Jeremiah Sullivan along with warmongers like Victoria Nuland. (and her husband - Robert Kagan acting behind the scenes)
They don’t do that as far as I am aware? On two counts. Firstly, they don’t say nobody should be able to link identities, and secondly Apple doesn’t link identities in their ad business.

Just to clarify, ATT is where Apple says that apps can’t collect data on you and share it with other companies without your permission.

When somebody buys and uses an iPhone, they are clearly making an active choice to be an Apple user. Apple can use their data.

When somebody installs a third-party app Foo, they are clearly making an active choice to be a Foo user. Foo can use their data.

But then Foo adds the Facebook SDK to their app. This is invisible to the user. They haven’t made a choice to be a Facebook user. They don’t even know it’s happening. When Facebook gets their data because they use the Foo application, it’s happening without the user’s knowledge or consent.

ATT doesn’t ban Facebook from tracking them, it just says that the user needs to be asked first. It’s putting Facebook’s access to data on the same level of consent as Apple and the apps people choose to use.

Apple using your tracking data in their own ad business doesn’t violate that norm. The data isn’t being sent to an unknown third-party. Apple says:

> The Apple advertising platform does not track you, nor does it buy or share your personal information with other companies.

— https://www.apple.com/sg/privacy/control/

Do you have reason to believe this is a lie? Because if it’s the truth, then Apple are playing by the same rules as everybody else.
> Basic technical compliance is not the hard part! It's everything else.

We totally agree. And to clarify, we don't just provide the technical compliance checklist (AWS Audit Manager already has all that), we provide the comprehensive list of tasks and policies that you need to put in place to be prepared for a complete audit. This spans terraform for technical infra setup all the way to 20+ legal policies (BC/DR Policies, Asset Management Policies, Access Control Policies, etc.)

> In my experience no customers will ever ask if you're HIPAA compliant.

For startups and earlier companies, being HIPAA compliant (whether it's a compliance badge on the footer of your website or a compliance report that you send to customers) is immensely helpful in the sales process. It signals credibility and trust. Sometimes this can be the difference between getting a sales call vs. not.

> A more detailed website would change that a lot.

We completely agree. We're rolling out a new version of the website taking to heart all the feedback you've given and will reply here in the coming days once we've pushed the updates.

> It's also not clear to me how this whole setup works with legal.

We're not replacing your legal counsel nor are we guaranteeing compliance. We're giving you the tools to be compliant that we've revised and refined with the help of auditors. At the end of the day, if you intentionally deploy an application that posts people's medical data to Twitter or you leave your computer unlocked on a subway, we can't take liability for that :)
I suggest reading up on this, it is an important element that significantly shaped the computer world.

But yeah, not sure it is at play here.
Agreed, every company, from non-profits to startups to corporations of every size seems desperate to capitalize on AI. It doesn't matter whether or not it makes sense to incorporate in their product, say AI and the stonk goes up, so we need to pump AI into everything. Which usually means tacking on some stupid text summarization or ChatGPT interface everywhere. There is no way there is any demand for this shit, and it's already causing problems due to hallucinations. I don't know how much valuations are inflated due to the more AI == more money insanity, but it's definitely worse than crypto, not every company in existence jumped on that train and there was always some healthy amount of skepticism around that tech.
How was dotcom era a bubble? Sure Webvan went out of business, but Instacart is huge. The very first company trying something out not succeeding is not a bust, it's normal risk of early movers. 3D TV seems to be a true bubble so far, I don't know if AI is. I have to think that applications like self driving cars and further automation of manufacturing are here to stay, while chatbots might be a fad, we will see.

Huh! That's a pleasant surprise.
India - and probably many other countries outside of the Americentric West zone - achieved complete adoption of digital (mobile) payments, shot up internet connectivity to the moon (to the point that it now has the largest population of netizens in the world), made huge strides in FinTech and Digital Learning, achieved complete adoption of digital commerce including app-based ride-hailing and food delivery, and saw the blossoming of a gigantic app/digital services-based economy.

Life has changed radically here as compared to 2014.

This opinion is so crazy to me. How can it be a bubble if it's already providing me with 10x productivity gains? Things I've used GPT-4 to automate: replaying to all emails, writing entire books, doing all the legal paperwork for my new business, completing daily code challenges, generating shopping lists, writing birthday messages, and replying to my family group chat. And that's when the tech is still relatively new! Once the technology advances and I'm able to automate basically all of my daily tasks, who knows where I'll be.

We should still treat corporations as moral actor (without being naive of course) because they need to be accountable for what they do. This is why you can sue a company. You can't sue an earthquake.

Some companies try to do the right things too. Bad corporate behavior should not be normalized this much.
Zoom? Try having a video conference call 10 years ago. I remember going to an HP corporate office (in Taiwan, if I remember correctly) in 2012 where they proudly demonstrated a video conference room that worked well.

I think the “dot com” bubble refers more specifically to stock market valuations being too high and thus later crashing.

Likewise, I don’t think this report refers to “AI” being a fad as much as just AI companies being overvalued.

It seems possible to believe that AI will swallow the world and also many AI companies being overvalued.

How about confidential computing, e.g. AWS Nitro enclaves, Intel TDX etc?

HSMs make most sense when they’re performing high-level operations (“Is this credit card CVC valid?”); when used as signature or decryption oracles (“Hi, I’m a trusted application server, now sign this email!”) their security gain rapidly diminishes.

Sometimes they get used for key storage alone (“Hi, I’m an application server booting up, give me the RSA signing key for account x!” or even worse “Hi, I’m an application server booting up, give me the key wrapping all the user keys in our database!”), with obvious implications.

Getting an HSM vendor to implement your use case can get very expensive; confidential computing lets you do it yourself, i.e. draw a much larger “trusted” box in your architectural diagram than otherwise feasible.

I think the llm utility[0] (the one from Simon, not Google) is probably the best quickstart experience you can find. Gives the option to connect to services via API or install/run local models.

As simple as

llm install llm-gpt4all
# Download and run a prompt against the Orca Mini 7B model
llm -m orca-mini-3b-gguf2-q4_0 'What is the capital of France?'

Alternatively, you could use the llamafile[1] which is a tiny binary runner which gets packaged ontop of the multigigabyte models. Download the llamafile and you can launch it through your terminal or a web browser.

From the llamafile page, after you download the file, you can just launch it as

So the information chain, starting with the telescope that detects the flare, and then has to work it's way up the food chain, so that sufficient people agree, and take presumably synchronised action, well, good luck with that.

You'd also ideally need a multi-hour warning, planes gotta land etc.

Make no mistake, shutting it down will result in some deaths [1]. And those deaths will be on the news tomorrow (if indeed news still exists.) On the other hand not shutting down will cause more deaths and massive destruction.

We support both in our app and enterprise product. The APIs (OpenAI) vs libraries (i.e. llama.cpp for on-device) are so similar that the switch is basically transparent to the user. We're adding support for other platforms APIs soon, and everything we've looked so far is as easy to integrate as OpenAI - except Google that for some reason complicates everything on Google Cloud.

This is often what happens, and this is often what’s fragile. In the blog these are referred to as “lifetime extension”. The code is written as carefully as it ever is and I can confirm the observation that it’s just begging for a segfault or a leak :) Note that finalizers are asynchronous, and there’s an inversion of control/scoping issue with the way you’ve described it.

Darcs has rebase & Pijul doesn’t which can really help ergonomics for fixups or if you do a lot of WIPs that need amending. Darcs also has a send command for easily mailing patches to others. Darcs also lets you override the diff output which is compatible with decades-old tooling rather than something bespoke. Pijul despite better performance, an awesome user identity system, & channels is still not a Darcs replacement IMO. That isn’t to say folks shouldn’t use or follow the Pijul project (they should) more than it is to say one should still feel okay using Darcs today too as it’s still getting updates & has features Pijul doesn’t; what’s wrong is folks calling Pijul a ‘successor’ as if the Darcs project had died. You could still use Darcs in 2024.

I like the part where we're expected to just believe these agencies/departments aren't sharing and circulating address data internally, simply because they say they aren't. As if they've never misled and outright lied to the public thousands of documented times in the past.

Also, regional ice cream sales in coastal areas correlate directly with shark attacks. Japan has the best because they see it as a first-class transportation system. America thinks public transit is a D-list expenditure, at best. Now we have D-list service quality, at best. Post-privatized UK bus systems, London aside, are a joke. Being public might not have changed that, but it sure didn't stop it. Boston's public transit is a joke, but improving. Same with their privatized regional rail service. The company took years to get enough snow removal equipment to not cancel dozens of trains in heavy snow. In Boston.

I’m still not totally convinced that the HSMs are tamper evident. I’ve read (ok perused) the compliance reports, and they just say ‘yeah we have HSMs and they’re secure’, but what assurances can consumers have with the integrity of the hardware, short of being able to walk into a datacentre (never going to happen), install their own product, and lock the rack with their own key?

It’s unreasonable, expensive, and probably unnecessary and irrational for the vast majority of customers, but it still niggles at me from time to time.
Discounted Cashflows calculation for Nvidia would require 10x growth and a 55% profit margin for 10 years to justify the current valuation.

If the company achieves a 4-5X growth (15% per year) and 30% margins (instead of 55%) that would place the share price at $176 - 1/4th of what it is today.
> being sober around drunk people is uncomfortable

I don't drink either. I do go to bars all the time and am sober around drunk people all the time. A few tips, in-case you (or someone else) decides to embrace the discomfort:

- Order something non-alcoholic at the bar. Depending on where you live, the bartender will either give it to you for free or very cheap. They'll assume that you are the party's designated driver, and everyone loves the designated driver ;). As a side effect, you'll fit in much more with a drink in your hand, even if it is a non-alcoholic one.

- Get out of your head, and just start talking to people. Say hi if you make eye contact. Compliment someone if you like their dress. This takes some practice, but doing this as soon as you get to a bar, or even outside the bar if you're in line, will transform your experience to a much, much better one.

- Warm up a bit at home (like a gym warmup) to some music. Your body will move much better and you won't feel like you're so off beat if you do decide to dance when you go to the bar.

It really isn't bad. Just imagine all those drunk people need the drink to loosen up, and you, with a bit of practice can do it without a lick of alcohol!

As a bonus, if you're male, you'll be better in bed sober than drunk.
