your point is well taken, and we've already achieved sufficient subtlety. situatonists would've rejected the idea that they owe debt to an -ism, which is where we started, but debord would've freely acknowledge an influence of specific surrealists.

surrealist groups keep dragging a dead corpse around. there's nothing wrong with that, in same way as improv clubs are a perfectly acceptable leisure activities for the laptop class.

we can definitely agree that both surrealist and situationist tactics are at this point fully integrated. but then traditional protest tactics have been at this point fully integrated: you know si celebrating watts riots, but the covid riots might as well be a perfect case study on the nature of recuperation. i doubt op new york times writer thinks she's being anything but clever, but you know everything about it is a neat little mockery of our collective impotence.

there are lessons that we can derive from si writing AND surrealist works, but i don't think goofy "one simple hack the spectacle hates!" are it.
That still doesn't seem accurate. I have CUDA 11.6 on my machine from Dec 2021, just checked the EULA included there, and it did have the mentioned clause there too.
You know, we're probably capable of landing on a landing pad on the moon, now.

Apollo 11/Eagle landed something like 4 miles off from their target site, but SpaceX nowadays routinely lands on target.

Any browser can use massive amounts of RAM if you open a lot of tabs. Especially if they are running a lot of JS that doesn't release its memory properly. There are some sites I can go to that just continue to chew away at the RAM as long as the tab is open.

In any case, it's pretty easy for the OS to swap out browser data as it is chunkable by tab. Just because it had allocated 22GB doesn't mean that it was all active. Must was certainly swapped to SSD.
Whether the physics engine is deterministic or not doesn't matter here -- Revy (and more importantly, Rerun) doesn't replay anything: it just stores state, every single frame, and then visualizes that state at every timestamp available.

Check out e.g. the live demo of the breakout example for example [1]: if you click on the pallet and then go to its parent node, you'll see that we just store that node's final transform (i.e. post-physics) every frame.

Happy gamedev!

Just to be clear, I did not back down from this argument even after we both said we will not continue. You said several things I disagree with and misrepresented my points again. I think you are arguing in bad faith in this whole thread, just to troll me. I would have replied to your final wall of text but there is no reply button under the message. I guess we hit the reply limit. Just as well since we both kinda wanted to stop anyway.
It's a pilot program, and lots of folks don't receive a 1099. You have to walk before you can run and replace for profit providers. Better to test with hundreds of thousands before you're up to millions of users.

I had an interesting experience a few years back as a reviewer for proposals to NASA LuSTR program: https://www.nasa.gov/directorates/stmd/space-tech-research-g...

The topic was exactly that: landing pad preparation solutions. Here's a summary slide for one of the winning proposals: https://www.nasa.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/lustr2021_qu...

The Autonomous Site Preparation: Excavation, Compaction, and Testing (ASPECT) Project will develop tools and methods to clear, level, and compact the lunar surface. ASPECT is a fully autonomous rover with equipment for regolith excavation, boulder moving, and surface compaction.
YOU answered it incorrectly. The answer is 1. I guess Claude can comprehend the answer better than (some) humans
> It's been done, but what comes out is terrible Rust. Everything is unsafe types with C semantics.

The idea behind the current c2rust tool is that you'd do a one-shot conversion to Rust and then gradually do refactoring passes over the barely-Rust code to convert it to correct C code. The focus is on preserving semantics of C over writing anything close to idiomatic (cue a + b being translated to a.wrapping_add(b) all the time, e.g.). Which is an approach, but I'm not sure it ends up providing any value over "set your system to compile both C and Rust into a final image and then slowly move stuff from the C to the Rust side as appropriate" in practice.

> Usually, C code does have array length info; it's just not in a form that the language ties to the array itself.

This is actually why C23 made VLA support semi-mandatory: it enables you to describe a function signature as

int write_to_device(size_t len, char buf[len])

and C23 compilers are required to support that, even in absence of full VLA support! The intent of making this support mandatory was to be able to use that as a basis for adding better bounds-checking support to the language and compilers. (Although, as you noticed, there is an order-of-declarations issue compared to the typical idiomatic expression of such APIs in C, and the committee has yet to find a solution to that).

A proper interface to GIT. Beleive it or not, but before git we developed software just fine and spent close to zero time using or learning whatever tool was being used for source control. GIT requires the end user to know way too much about it's internal implementation and this has leaked out into the interface. It's half done.
LLMs are intuitive computing algorithms, which means they only mimic the subconscious faculties of our brain. You’re referencing the need for careful systematic logical self-aware thinking, which is a great point! You’re absolutely right that LLMs can only loosely approximate it on their own, and not that well.

Luckily, we figured out how to write programs to mimic that part of the brain in the 70s ;)

Yes. Basically cheats and anti-cheats became their own thing security-wise and huge amounts of effort are spent (by both sides) on this cat and mouse game.

Although both cracking (as in "software cracking") and cheats were very similar security fields back in the day (both boiled down to reverse engineering) cheating has diverged enough (due to modern anti-cheats and anti-piracy becoming very different countermeasures) that I'd consider them vastly different nowadays.

Some categories of exploits unique to games:

- Aim hacking (pointing the mouse cursor to enemy heads)

- Recoil/spread cheats (mouse compensating for weapon recoil or bullet spread)

- Botting/botfarming (playing resource-intensive games automatically)

- Wallhacking (showing players through walls, or making walls semi transparent)

- Miscellaneous passive assistance (like overlaying a predicted path for a ball in a game, drawing precise location for footsteps/other player sounds, etc.)

- Modification of game state (like sending your character's position at will, allowing you to fly or go through walls)

Some of these have analogues in app security:

- Botting detection is probably very similar in both MMOs and CloudFlare)

- Hidden information is not very different from what we do in web apps (only send the state that the client needs and has access to)

- Preventing game state modification is solved by having a strongly authoritative server (again pretty normal in app land)

But even in those, what makes games very unique compared to other apps is that they're hard real time: you have hard requirements for each frame time; it's expensive to calculate in-server all things that a player should be able to see every single frame; packets take time to travel over the internet so you have to give it some slack (or enemies could pop out of nowhere when crossing doors); client sometimes needs information that you'd like to remain private (you need player positions even behind walls to provide 3D sounds)...

Modern anticheats usually resort to just scanning the memory for running cheats, trying to detect a cheat reading/modifying the game memory, etc. but cheats have come to great lengths like having actual cheat hardware (DMA devices on PCIe[0]) that cannot be detected since it's running outside of the computer software.

OpenAI has not and will likely never develop AGI, so this is akin to saying “Microsoft doesn’t own OpenAI because they have a clause in their contract that’s says they stop owning it when leprechauns exist.” Musk is trying to argue leprechauns exist because he’s mad he got outmaneuvered by Altman, which I imagine will go as well as you’d expect that argument to go in a court of law.
I know the kibble balance is objectively superior but I was really rooting for the Avogadro project.
No* they are text continuations.

Given a string of text, what's the most likely text to come next.

You /could/ rewrite input text to be more logical, but what you'd actually want to do is rewrite input text to be the text most likely to come immediately before a right answer if the right answer were in print.

* Unless you mean inside the model itself. For that, we're still learning what they're doing.

To solve this problem, we need to understand the relationships between Sally and her siblings.

Given information:
- Sally (a girl) has 3 brothers.
- Each brother has 2 sisters.

Since Sally is a girl, and she has 3 brothers, it means that each of her brothers considers her as one of their sisters.

Therefore, if each brother has 2 sisters, and Sally is one of those sisters for each brother, then Sally has 1 other sister besides herself.

So, the number of sisters Sally has is 1.

In this case, no. The reason is, we setup separate network namespaces per VM and the flowtables are also created separately per namespace.
To be fair, Apple today is more about going thermonuclear on apps inside its own ecosystem, as compared to Android or Android apps. (I don't mean just the commission rate, but the blatant copying of successful app concepts).

There's no preprocessing being done. This is pure computation, from the tokens to the outputs.

I was quite amazed that during 2014-2016, what was being done with dependency parsers, part-of-speech taggers, named entity recognizers, with very sophisticated methods (graphical models, regret minimizing policy learners, etc.) became fully obsolete for natural language processing. There was this period of sprinkling some hidden-markov-model/conditional-random-field on top of neural networks but even that disappeared very quickly.

There's no language modeling. Pure gradient descent into language comprehension.

I’m the first to agree LLM are not AGI, but I make extensive use of them to solve real world problems. They have intrinsic value.

web3 on the other hand have zero use cases other than Ponzi schemes.

Are LLM living up to all the hype? No.

Are they a hugely significant technology? Yes.

Are they web3 style bullshit? Not at all.
I had never heard of this emulator before, but after all the news of this lawsuit, I looked at their compatibility list and am surprised at how many titles are supported and how well this seems to work! I'll definitely be giving this emulator a try soon.

I think Nintendo is probably shooting themselves in the foot a little bit by giving this project more publicity than it otherwise would have received.
the intro price point unit is far too limited. once you start adding ram and storage the price is no longer competitive.

e.g.
$1,899.00 for 15'' 16GB ram + 1TB SSD

i just bot a similar aluminum HP with Oled , Ryzen 7, 16GB , 1TB SSD for $700

the build quality is good, just a tick below apple. the fan is mild, not as good as apple.

but $1200 premium for apple ? I had to say no

I tried Sonnet also, to no avail:

To solve this problem, we need to find the number of sisters Sally has.

Given information:

Sally has 3 brothers.
Each brother has 2 sisters.
Since Sally is a girl, she is not counted as a sister to her brothers.

Step 1: Find the total number of sisters for all 3 brothers.
Number of sisters for each brother = 2
Total number of sisters for all 3 brothers = 3 × 2 = 6

Step 2: Since Sally is not counted as a sister to her brothers, the number of sisters Sally has is the total number of sisters for all 3 brothers minus Sally herself.
Number of sisters Sally has = Total number of sisters for all 3 brothers - 1
Number of sisters Sally has = 6 - 1 = 5

Therefore, Sally has 5 sisters.
> Those numbers just don't make sense. That's 130 miles short of the great circle distance from SIN-BAH of 3935 miles.

In an aviation context, those are most likely nautical miles (equivalent to 1 minute of a degree in north-south direction, which is why 10,000 km (initially defined as the distance from the equator to the pole) is basically 5,400 NM (90 degrees from the equator to the pole, times 60 minutes/degree)) rather than statute miles, which are some certain number of yards and feet in that quaint customary system used still used by some people in the USA, Liberia, and Myanmar.

Indeed, according to the interweb, the distance between Singapore (Singapore Changi Airport) and Manama (Bahrain International Airport) is 3935 miles / 6333 kilometers / 3420 nautical miles.
The problem (as per usual) is that the legal system is horribly biased in favour of whoever has the most money/resources. When one side has millions/billions to spend on lawyers and legal fees and the other doesn't, then the former is almost certainly going to drive the latter into settling (or bankruptcy), regardless of whether the latter did anything illegal.

There needs to be a way to fix the system so that both sides of any court battle are on (fairly) equal footing, and having significantly more resources than your opponent doesn't tilt the field in your favour in any practical way.
They just changed it so that, with the laptop lid closed, the M3 Airs and MBP support two external monitors.

> Any person or company affected by anti-competitive behaviour as described in this case may bring the matter before the courts of the Member States and seek damages. The case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and Regulation 1/2003 both confirm that in cases before national courts, a Commission decision constitutes binding proof that the behaviour took place and was illegal. Even though the Commission has fined the company concerned, damages may be awarded by national courts without being reduced on account of the Commission fine.

Uff. Spotify can ask for damage compensation on top of those 1.8 B€, huh?! Apart from music streaming services, I don't see why the situation isn't fundamentally the same with video streaming and Apple TV, and maybe even things like VPN, or cloud services, where Apple has its own competing products now.

So... this ultimately may get really, really nasty and expensive for Apple. I am so here for it :)
>I assume if this hibernate option was viable, then people would be slamming their Windows laptop shut and stuffing it in their bag at a moment’s notice.

it's viable for me. sleep has never been consistent on any of the 10 devices I had, no matter the cost or build of the laptop. But that's the default settings when you receive a new Windows device and changing this means going deep into the settings (Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Power Options\System Settings in case you're curious). So most people won't ever have that configured. It's probably at best what pops up if you google "how to fix windows sleep issue" or "my laptop not turning off when lid closed" kinds of stuff.

That's one mantra Apple usually lives up to: "it just works". i.e. most of their defauls align with what a consumer expects, and is consistent with behavior. Windows/Linux can do almost everything a mac does, but you may have to spend days figuring out the settings and how they interact with your specific machine.
Nvidia customers are paying $30K for GPUs that should be under $10K; that's how they're getting burned.
lol that’s actually awesome. I think this is a clear case where the fine tuning/prompt wrapping is getting in the way of the underlying model!

Each of Sally's brothers has 2 sisters. One of these sisters is Sally, but who is the other sister? Since Sally has only brothers and no other sisters are mentioned, we can conclude that the other sister for each brother is also Sally.

I disagree, and I always upgrade the RAM even though I don’t like paying more. Why? Because it puts pressure on developers to keep the bloat under control.

Think of an alternate universe where Apple does the opposite: every new model they push the envelope and double the baseline RAM compared to the previous year. In that world you’d have all the software growing in memory use without bound. Consumers would be forced into a treadmill of computer upgrades like we haven’t seen since the 90’s when CPUs were skyrocketing in performance every year.

For anyone who forgets what the 90’s was like, here’s an example with Mac models:

1990 saw the launch of the Mac LC which had a 16 MHz Motorola 68020

1999 brought the Power Mac G4 at up to 500 MHz

That’s a 31-fold increase in clock rate (and several times that in overall performance) in the same timespan we’re discussing. Software that was written for the G4 had no chance of running on the LC (ignoring CPU architecture differences).

MacBook Airs are the mainline consumer machine these days. Apple does not want users to feel like they need to upgrade them every year (despite what people say).
I've been trying out embassy-rs and what is really exciting that you might get RTOS abilities, without actually using an RTOS. Just native Rust, with some smart abstractions. Still prefer C, but the Rust embedded community seems to be cooking up something very interesting.
