You're right, but at the same time I've read enough NTSB reports to know tyres (admittedly not entire wheels) fail rather frequently. (Normally during landing.) And getting the fuel ignited is not that easy on modern planes.

A tab is roughly a standard dosage. One problem is that LSD is such an extremely potent chemical (the effective dose is measured in micrograms) that it is difficult to be confident in your dosage when it hasn't been produced in a rigorously controlled pharma environment. So even one tab might be actually several times stronger than you're expecting.

I've seen bad trips, I've even seen one case of psychosis. My personal opinion is that the positives still outweigh the negatives. The negatives are also easily mitigated by providing a safe and positive setting (and would be even more so with standardized production); clinical administration would be quite safe. Benzodiazepines are effective in stopping the anxiety spiral of bad trips.

The caveat to this is noise. People who have never seen a rack server in person don't understand how loud they really are. PSUs, case fans, cpu fans (if applicable) all gotta go.

The "face-eating bath salt man of Florida" was a schizophrenic that had smoked too much cannabis, triggering a manic episode.

He never even ingested alpha-PVP, the "bath salt" / amphetamine synthetic in question.

>You hear stories with psilocybin mushrooms too but I remember reading that LSD was a different beast that it can actually cause lasting symptoms whereas you don't hear that with psilocybin (but not without cases involving psychosis).

LSD is, among the most experienced of psychonauts, associated with a slightly relatively increased risk of HPPD, especially compared to mushrooms.

The dosage, setting, and personal predisposition to manic and schizophrenic episodes is a magnitude more affecting of a factor.

Antedate urban legends such as the above, and "orange juice man", just further dilute the truth, and increase the actual risk to people harming themselves.

> But ML is different and I think they should care.

It’s totally this time I promise, just like, one more ~~lane~~ model.

I’m sure they do care. I wouldn’t be surprised if they land significant support for on-app processing of models, they’ve already got the chip, dropping in local models is a sensible next step, and if close to zero effort for them.

> LLMs are going to have some general applications that users are going to want, and will become the norm

I have yet to see anyone, in my personal or professional circles, use any LLM:

- for anything more than cutesy trivial things.

I’m sure there’s people around stapling models into their toaster, but this is so far from the normal.

I think we do agree given your last sentence. I'll sign on to that.

On the details of the history this wasn't "my country come to your land and forced you to leave" it was more like "Jewish people immigrated to this region, their historic homeland, many expelled from their homes in Europe and the middle east and had no options" (compare e.g. to Chinese people from Hong Kong immigrating to Canada) and "war started by the Arab countries against the UN recognized state of Israel led to 700,000 Palestinians refugees" (I'd compare to millions of German refugees in Europe post their loss in WW-II). Jewish immigration to the region was legal and should be viewed as moral on many levels. If the Arab population were to look at it as the positive that it could have been then we'd all be living happily ever after in a prosperous middle east. If anything millions of Jews could have been saved in WW-II if Britain were to allow more of them to immigrate- that was immoral. The Arabs had, and still do, see this as a (racist) zero sum game, not a win-win (vs. how Canada looks at immigration again e.g.). Read Israel's declaration of independence to see how Israel's leadership looked at it (and keep in mind this was 1948!).

The settlements are a tricky topic. I'm opposed to them and the settlers. But this is not what most people talk about when they say Israel is a colonist. What most people mean is the existence of the state of Israel is the "settlement". That's their political perspective and IMO both racist and a distortion of history.
Agreed, go has good build tooling. And pretty good tooling in general.

It sounds like the problem isn't Google being able to refuse service, but instead that Google doing that has the power to kill your smaller company. No one company should be allowed to have the power to decide which companies live or die.

Yes, "High Entropy" or even "HighE" is a more accurate than "Fully Encrypted Traffic".

Where I live there are few wheelchair taxis and they need to be booked in advance, sometimes months in advance if it’s a holiday. If a driver is sick most likely all their customers are staying at home. Costs are significantly subsidised and yet still there are not enough drivers.

It is hard to scale because it requires drivers with well above average patience, empathy and a caring personality. It’s not a job for profit focused individuals.

To scale it would require drivers paid a salary not paid per trip/mile. It would also require generous allowances for time (wheelchair taxi drivers are often delayed through no fault of their own).
Apple's statement:

“Following conversations with Epic, they have committed to follow the rules, including our DMA policies. As a result, Epic Sweden AB has been permitted to re-sign the developer agreement and accepted into the Apple Developer Program.”

If you think the EU got their shit together in 2 days, you're day dreaming.

Phil Schiller invited Epic to make assurances that they'd follow the terms of the agreement. Epic did. The EU didn't even have their shoes on.

You can safely ignore Tim Sweeney's twitter chest beating - it's marketing.
Some of these old optimizations are now deprecated. For example, there’s a famous trick for inverse square root: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_inverse_square_root Modern processors have a special instruction for that. The hardware instruction is several times faster, and couple orders of magnitude more precise: https://www.felixcloutier.com/x86/rsqrtps

Other optimizations are now applied automatically by compilers. For example, all modern compilers optimize integer division by compile-time constants, here’s an example: https://godbolt.org/z/1b8r5c5MG

Squeezing performance out of modern hardware requires doing very different things.

Here’s an example about numerical computations. On paper, each core of my CPU can do 64 single-precision FLOPs each cycle. In reality, to achieve that performance a program needs to spam _mm256_fmadd_ps instructions while only loading at most 1 AVX vector per FMA, and only storing at most 1 AVX vector per two FMAs.
Power draw also comes with terrible noise. They were designed to be in a server room, not a living/bed room.
Interesting. Let's review the comment.

> The issue here isn't specifically about the classification of memory, be it "unified memory," RAM, or VRAM. The primary concern is ensuring there's enough memory capacity for the models required for inference.

The comment chain is about training, not inference.

> The real question at hand is the Mac's value proposition in terms of inference speed, particularly for models as large as 70 billion parameters.

Again, wrong topic.

> Utilizing a 4090 GPU can facilitate real-time inference, which is the desired outcome for most users.

Generic statement. Semantically empty. Typical LLM style.

> In contrast, a Mac Studio offers close to real-time inference speeds, which might be disappointing for users expecting a real-time experience.

Tautological generic statement. Semantically empty. Typical LLM style.

> Then, there's the option of CPU + RAM-based inference, which suits scenarios where immediate responses aren't crucial, allowing for batch processing of prompts and subsequent retrieval of responses.

Contradicts first sentence that "classification of memory" isn't important. Fails to recognize this the same category as previous statement. Subtle shift from first sentence that declared "primary concern is ... membory capacity", to focusing purely on performance. This kind of incoherent shift is common in LLM output.

> Considering the price points of both the Mac Studio and high-end GPUs are relatively comparable, it begs the question of the practicality and value of near real-time inference in specific use cases.

Completes shift from memory capacity to performance. Compares not really comparable things. "Specific use cases" is a tell-tale LLM marker. Semantically empty.
How would having a builtin build system (I'm not even asking for a package manager) limit where C can ship to?
This is a very cool feature, but I'm starting to see why people say that Swift has crammed every other language's feature into one place. Not that that's necessarily bad, but this is a pretty specific feature to have that probably won't benefit the majority of users (not that that's wrong either).
Huh you’re right. Thanks for the correction.

The phones were released in October, while Gemini Nano's announcement happened in December. I, like other developers and consumers reaching for the smaller version, might've bought the device for the ability to run the ML features advertised in their keynote/based on the research they released the week prior to that (in the case of the former.)

During Gemini's initial release the language surrounding nano was that it was only the Pro initially, and I was happy to wait. The complete inability to run it, when the new Samsung phones can (including the model with 8GB as reported above) feels not only like a bait-and-switch/false-advertising, but a constraint based solely on driving sales. It does demand a clear explanation.

I care less about another potential Pixel class action, and more that I have to get another phone to test and deploy my apps to a smaller audience to.

You're talking about ammonia. This is currently irreplaceable in terms of scaling, certainly it would be impossible to feed 8 billion people without. Just look at how much more land-use "organic" plots require.

There are innovations in the works to synthesize ammonia without fossil fuels, but I don't see a future without fertilizer.

And Meta for all the fraud and scam ads on Instagram and Facebook.

We’re talking about LLMs. In that context it makes no sense to “exclude the ram difference.”
The opposite is actually true. Insects only eat dead, dying plants and low quality plants. Its an indicator of crops that are lacking in nutrition. For example, once a plant reaches a certain level of photosynthesis, it produces so much sugars that aphids can't digest it. I've seen it myself, its fun they just fall of the plant and die. You can measure this with a 20 dollar device.

There's research being done, for example by the bionutrient institute, that tells us nutritional values vary a lot. The exact same crop can have a 5 to 300 times difference in some nutrients (like vitamines) between lowest and highest performing crop.

The chemicals plants use specifically to repel insects, (secondary metabolites), are especially important and healthy for us to consume.
> It's fast enough to do realtime (7 tok/s) chat with 120b models.

Please list quantization for benchmarks. I'm assuming that's not the full model because that would need 256GB and I don't see a Studio model with that much memory, but q8 doubles performance and q4 quadruples it (with corresponding loss of quality).

> But in practice, I'm not aware of any actual offerings in this space for comparable money that do not involve having to mess around with building things yourself.

You can just buy a complete server from a vendor or eBay, but this costs more because they'll try to constrain you to a particular configuration that includes things you don't need, or overcharge for RAM etc. Which is basically the same thing Apple does.

Whereas you can buy the barebones machine and then put components in it, which takes like fifteen minutes but can save you a thousand bucks.
Breton posted on X that his team would look into this case with high priority yesterday. Apple noticed they are about to get a beating and decided to handle this case proactively before they get fined and regulated even stronger
doesn't really matter. You said "nothing to do with" and I said "is not free".

1/3 of a second for a build that has already cached all dependencies means I was correct that it's not free and you were being dismissive when you said it had nothing to do with build times.

If you want to argue that it's a minimal amount of time then argue that instead of what you've been arguing.

> 10% of their total GDP from agriculture, which is quite a bit higher than New Zealand

Meat was 11% of NZ export income: a huge amount more than the 1.5% for Mongolia[1]. GDP is weird, and comparing sectors or countries is hard. Comparing meat since that's closer to the topic.

> long winters, and low precipitation provides limited potential for agricultural development. it is unsuited to most cultivation

A better comparison is between the South Island of New Zealand and Mongolia. South Island latitude 41S to 47S. Mongolia latitude 41N to 50N. The South Island has "high-country farms" but yes New Zealand farming is far different from Mongolia where the country's altitude is mostly between say 800m and 1600m (along with continental weather). Our agriculture is very different from Mongolia's (and ours is variable: floods in some areas and bad droughts in other areas).

[1] Data: Mongolia Exports of meat and edible meat offal was US$19.73 Million during 2021, Mongolia of total Exports 1324.80. New Zealand had NZD77.2 billion exports, with NZD8.6 billion exports for meat and offal.

"Qualified" based on their personal experience with what is apparently common practice for Congress and its staffers, yes. But that just means that the common practice for Congress and its staffers involves an appalling level of ignorance about the rules and procedures of the very institution they are working for.

To run with the construction analogy, it's as if a bunch of structural engineers were calling a college student on Twitter who isn't even majoring in engineering a "savant" for having and sharing detailed knowledge of how to do load calculations to determine what size I-beams are required for a bridge or a building, based on reading the reference works that describe the details of those calculations. Yes, it would be impressive that a college student not majoring in engineering could gain such a detailed knowledge of structural engineering calculations in their spare time. But it would emphatically not be impressive for the people who are supposed to already have all that knowledge to be calling the college student a "savant".

I have been such a huge fan of Ecto in general, because they have conceptually broken down the idea of Schemas, Changesets, and Repos in a way that you can use it in so many additional use cases.

For example, you can use Ecto Schemas and Changesets to validate the shapes of your API requests (down to the valid values, etc) and provide good quality error messages. And changesets are easy to extend too.

Ecto is probably my favorite part of the overall Elixir ecosystem. Phoenix and LiveView have been nice to work with (But still don't quite feel right, especially event handling and bubbling up of events up components, I wish was smoother).

Overall we still really like working with this stack and the community is great too, in the general quality of libraries available.
