I don't see it as a different thing. Both companies use their platforms to talk about legislation they feel is negative in one way or another. Wikipedia managing to get thousands of people to call congress over a bill that would ban encryption would be hailed as a miracle of democracy here.

> 2 and 3 are not copyright violations, even if the data is copyrighted, because they fall under fair use (at least in the US).

This cannot be known until it is litigated. Fair Use is not something you can unilaterally declare and have it be so, just like you can't be like Michael Scott in the Office shouting "I declare bankruptcy!" OpenAI is currently defending itself against the New York Times for this very reason.

There's a multi-factor test that courts weigh the facts against in making a determination as to whether a prima facie copyright violation would be protected under a Fair Use defense:

Factor 1: The Purpose and Character of the Use

Factor 2: The Nature of the Copyrighted Work

Factor 3: The Amount or Substantiality of the Portion Used

Factor 4: The Effect of the Use on the Potential Market for or Value of the Work

See https://copyright.columbia.edu/basics/fair-use.html for a pretty good overview of what the analysis entails.
Tom was my manager for a while when I was a programmer at UCSF (~20 years after this event). He ran the Computer Graphics Lab which had a bunch of SGIs and DEC Alpha servers to do molecular modelling and I was 'the first linux guy in the group' (they asked me why I used linux when bsd existed). I remember him saying that whenever he licensed a commercial UNIX he insisted the contract include a section giving him access to the source code for the kernel ("because you never know when you will have to recompile the kernel or debug a kernel-space problem").

He's also known for presenting at USENIX on how to enable a hardware-disabled (but physically present) instruction on a cheaper version of the PDP/11. You'd cut a trace in the microcode and add a jumper wire, and presto! you had a fast floating point instruction that was previously disabled.

The F-16 training and delivery is already public, but it has been hinted at for a while that Ukrainians were being trained on Gripen also and that once Sweden was in NATO they'd be able to send some jets.
It's gonna be way worse than this:

- OpenAI and others will just settle with MPAA, RIAA and the likes for a revenue stream (a single digit billion a year, likely) + some kind of control over what people can and cannot do with the AI + the access to the technology to produce their own content.

- artists will see peanuts from the deal, and the big names are going to be able to stop doing any kind of business with artists which are just expenses in their eyes. They will have been replaced by machines that where trained using their art with no compensation whatsoever.

IP is already predatory capitalism, AI will definitely be weaponized against the workers by the owners of the means of “production”.
When to Bet Against the Crowd (2010)
id sold a few Doom and a bunch of Quake 1/2/3 licenses back in the day. Off the top of my head: Heretic and Hexen used the Doom engine, their sequels used the Quake and Quake 2 engines respectively. Strife was an FPS RPG that was Doom based. Half-Life started out as a HEAVILY modified Quake engine and rumor has it that there is still a bit of Quake code in Source. Duke Nukem Forever started out on Quake before moving to Unreal.

I’ve literally never had that compatibility setting make a difference in the cases I tried. I am sure it does something in certain cases where the blurryness has a certain root cause but not universally
Careful there.

Could be another masterpiece... or it could be one of the 3480 new "Dune" novels allegedly written from Frank Herbert's notes. Quality stuff, that.
in my limited testing, greptile, posted here recently, was really good for understanding an existing codebase, Reich is a large part of real-world programming.
> My native language is Irish and I disagree. If you think English pronunciation rules are odd or inconsistent, then Irish will make you cry out in pain, as dialects from less than a hundred miles away can sound wildly different.

Irish pronunciation may be local, but the orthography is very consistent. I actually felt there was a lot in common between Kunreisiki and Irish - at first blush it's very confusing for a native English speaker, but once you get over that initial reflex and read it according to its own rules it all makes sense.

> I don't use Romaji much but I learned the Japanese syllabary ~35 years ago so translating Hepburn to correct pronunciation doesn't involve any conscious thought on my part.

Right, but doing that will paper over the issues with any romanisation system. What do you find worse about Kunreisiki?

You can do that. But I've never bothered. It would add an extra layer or two of cruft where it's not necessary. As well as use disk space unnecessarily when you could better allocate 90% or more of your disk space to your main OS.

Just pick one (Linux or Windows) and use that one as your base system. Make your guest disk as small as practical. My guest Win 7's C: drive is only about 40 gigs, which in a 12 TB system is pretty much just loose change.
Free is even better ;), will take a look thanks..

My pet theory is that outside of the recent tech salary bubble decade, anyone with a "normal" salary in the US can't really get ahead without at least investing in market index funds/ETFs. Otherwise, all an employee gets is time-for-money pay (which is constantly under pressure as a business cost) with little if any upside from high industry profits. Either that or play the startup equity lottery.
Breaking "/" or Ctrl+F makes me furious.
The creator of tabnine also just released supermaven. I’ve liked it so far because it’s fast and holds a lot more of my project in context (300k tokens) so it’s better at using data structures or functions I’ve defined elsewhere.

The same way you build mastery in anything: practice.

Write lots of Python (or whatever language you want to be proficient in) code. Every so often, go back to what you wrote before and review it.

Read lots of Python code. Tinker with it, add features, change things, see how what you do affects the program.

And study -- read lots about coding in Python. Interact with Python devs. That sort of thing.
I was asking myself the same question not so long ago because Github Copilot's bugs kept bothering me and this is what got us to go into YC and build https://double.bot

If what you are looking for a high quality UX + access to the most capable models (today that'd be the GPT-4 killer, Claude 3 Opus), then I think you'll like what we've built.

Double ha similar features to all the other Copilots, code autocomplete, chat, etc but we've put particularly care around getting the small details right (even the smallest thing like making sure our autocomplete closes the brackets appropriately). If you're coming from Github Copilot you should check out this side-by-side comparison: https://docs.double.bot/copilot
I think that was the right call. Pratchett's works after the Alzheimer onset weren't bad by any means, but they became very formulaic and didn't have the creativity of his best books. They're not helped by Moist van Lipwig being imo his most boring protagonist.
Maybe correct, but the GP's point that Epic instigated this knowing full well it will likely end up in their users being "hurt" is valid. If we're trying to find the point of who decided to do something to hurt users, we look for the first to make that concious decision.

My ears perked at this. Great advice!
I'm typing this on my Microsoft Surface Duo 2. It's the best phone I've ever had for actual work. It's not all your describing, but the fact you don't know about it goes to show how far behind Microsoft is at marketing their tech.
I'm using supermaven these days. Big enough context to understand my full codebase well (I am often working on relatively small projects though), and it's super fast. They trained a custom model, I believe on edit sequences.

These copilots are way more useful when their knowledge context is cross-file; anything restricted to current active file or making me do work to select some file subset I'm gonna pass on.
I like that they have them, but I really dislike automatically animated anything when I'm trying to read. I installed an extension that can pause gifs. because Google adds them to so many of their blog posts now.

This is an amazing experiment summary! I wonder if your APU conclusion still stands (CPU for bigger models otherwise APU), given all the advancements so far.
Plausible, sure, but such a vast improbability itself requires what would have to be quite a complex explanation.
Power users that want to program on their phone? That sounds like Ballmer-level thinking on mobile.

For it's time the way X did things was incredibly elegant and it worked really well and did things that seemed very sophisticated long before other systems could handle remote desktops.

There's a lot of stuff that seems hackish about modern stuff, but the needs are different. (Perhaps it seems worse to me when the modern stuff is grafted on top of X)

The thing that I remember being horrific about X was the abuse of pointers in some of the toolkits like Motif.

When GTK came along it seemed a lot easier to write to. As did Tk.
There is really nothing to talk about in this piece so I'm just going to echo the sentiment here about Cal Newport. Read Deep Work, it's a great book, one of my favorite actually. But, once you've done that, you've read everything he has to offer because every book, blog post, and video is an idea from Deep Work recycled and stretched 16 different ways.
> Scientists who work in labs, and have to run experiments or crunch numbers, can famously work long hours.

Since the author is a CS theory person, I guess "experiments" includes CS systems people, who tend to have very time-intensive building of systems for experiments.

In that same Stata Center as the author, my young CS systems principal investigator (PI) was working at least as hard as any grad student or postdoc. One time, probably in the wee hours of a morning, when a few of us were still working in the lab, I bumped into her, and joked something like, she won't have to work so hard once she gets tenure. Without missing a beat, her deadpan response: "I already have tenure."

Work ethic and endurance aren't the only requirements for success like hers, but they really help in systems-building work.

The UX was superior to Android and iOS. All the main apps were available. But people couldn’t live without their fart apps and all the junk in Android store.

Main issue was MS couldn’t release flagship phones world wide. Their flagship phone showed up in Asia 13 months after release. No one is going to wait year to get a flagship outdated phone.

Yes, they are. China specifically gives massive discounts and the PRC even directly interferes with pricing strategy for entry level vehicles - after all, they own the company. This is pretty well documented.

In the west, we also subsidize, but we generally subsidize new developments that hit our goals. Our goals in the west are not "EVs at any costs", unlike china, who is dependent on other nations for oil and gas.

And, part of how they "subsidize everything" is that they own everything, they have the ability to extract more value from companies and give it to other companies to achieve their goals. This can backfire, and has downsides, as seen with their real estate crisis.

Also, talking about budget surplus really understates the important role that debt plays in most governments.

So I'd say it's a few things

- China has a massive incentive to switch to EV, one that we in the west can't even imagine. They are willing to forgo profit in their car industry if it means they can reduce reliance on Russia and US-involved oil sources. This is EXTREMELY well documented.

- Solar and batteries are part of their desperate struggle to not rely on Russia. They are building massive storage tanks to store cheap Russian oil - the war in Ukraine has been a blessing for China and has put them in the uncomfortable seat of wanting to prolong the war for as long as possible. I'm not saying that they are doing anything to, just that there are incentives. To be honest, China is very reticent to get involved in matters like this, and I don't blame them.

- China's subsidized steel came from their massive need to build housing for their population, which ties into the next point.

- You misunderstand the economics involved (as judging by the way you talk about budget surpluses). The simple reality is that China operates unlike anything in the west. I don't think this is a bad thing, necessarily, and it's certainly helped raise (at least) half a billion people out of poverty.

So, everything you said "can't be true" or is "propaganda" is actually pretty reasonably explained by their explicit domestic policy and actions. I don't think they're particularly acting maliciously or trying to "start shit", they're just playing hard on the field. And they have every right to, tbh.
I get where you're coming from in a way. But speaking personally, the idea of people peeking at my creations before I'm ready for them to is anathema. Like, some fundamental violation of the self.
Seems meme-worthy. “Just one good idea, sparked over a dish of caviar eaten off a naked Slavic woman, or hugging a golden toilet at the sheik’s 4th house in Dubai, was worth days of tiring travel.”

> Read Flow by Mihály Csíkszentmihályi

This is the book every productivity self-help book published in the last 20+ years reference. Including the one I self-published many moons ago.

Mihaly is the only person who has done actual research and experiments on the subject. He basically worked on this his entire career from the mid 1960's onwards. Everything else is derivative.

While you're there, do yourself another favor and read up on Fogg's Behavior Model. That's the other academic research that all the famous productivity books base their suggestions upon.

The derivative pre-chewed content is fine, but get the underlying steak. It's worth it. The returns will compound your whole life/career.
Duet AI from Google. I have initially tried Copilot and it was sometimes slow in responding. Duet I feel is hyper fast and it sometimes suggest elegant solutions, I don't know if it has to do with any data trained on Google's own code base, I felt this particulary with Go code.
The NTSB redacts the names of individuals. None of the names Boeing hands over will ever be known to the public. No one will know they were interviewed by the NTSB nor who said what (even Boeing won't know that). At worst the final report will say "Engineer 1", "Engineer 2", etc.

It is deliberately done this way to avoid the issue you describe. If people knew talking to the NTSB could get them doxxed and fired it would make cooperation impossible.
Isn’t O notation asymptotic and a truncation? Adding an additional O(n) time to a O(n^2) algorithm would result in an O(n^2) algorithm? As far as I understand anyway. But you could make a more descriptive expression for the time based on what you know about the operations for sure
Agreed that Github Copilot is not worth anyone's valuable time. You should check out the new Claude 3 Opus model, it's noticeably better. Right off the bat, it's less 'lazy' with its generations, and for me, it has been able to solve bugs that GPT-4 could not solve.

Just this week we made it available on https://double.bot (VS COde Copilot extension). Have been getting similar feedback from multiple users
The classic example here is Strassen's algorithm. You divide your two input matrices into quarters, and then you need to do 7 matrix multiplies of the smaller (n/2) matrices. When you add up the total work done, this ends up needing to do n^(log base 2 of 7) work, or about n^2.8.
I don't get this at all. What kind of code are you writing that you have to literally go and research what it spat out?

In my experience 90% of code is 90% the same as another piece of code in the same repo, with small differences, and copilot will make you fly writing that code.

If you can't read the output code, does it mean the rest of your codebase is similarly unreadable?

The complexity in a codebase or a system is usually from different parts integrating or an overall architecture, but that's totally different to an individual function
In some cases they might also observe the "fixed" stars. (Depends on their habitat zone, atmospheric composition and weather, what kind of eyes they evolve, etc.)

If so, they could easily measure "one year", and possibly subdivide it further, based on either consistent angle-measurements or roughly-similar chunks based on designating constellations and when they vanish or reappear.

On top of that, there's inflation and the value-added tax, which mean that, once all the extra costs have been covered, only about €50 to €70 billion will be left over to spend on actual hardware.

There has been some criticism from European allies, and within Germany, that so many big orders have been placed in the United States.

Depriving local industry. And of what use is this anyway. Why on earth would Germany need ballistic missile defense etc.

>quickly

Two years in, the entire West still cannot outproduce Russia. Let alone Russia plus friends. For the most part, dependable large orders—necessary for expansion—aren’t coming. Overall, deindustrialization is only accelerating.

Italy just ordered 132 L2s for 2027–2037. Pathetic timeframe. These tanks will be obsolete by then.

>NATO wants America in

There is no NATO without the US. Something could conceivably carry the same name but it would not be the same thing. NATO is and has always been an instrument of American control over Europe.

>angry orange political candidate

Remember when Trump ordered a reduction of the occupation force in Germany (35k then)? Well, Serious People got Very Nervous and the military stalled the order. In fact, the generals were in a state of barely concealed mutiny then. And now there’s 50k.

So, rest assured: Germany will be Kept Down for the foreseeable future.
