Yes, I've learned some techniques after reproducing a lot of Islamic patterns, which can be done entirely with straightedge and compass (although frankly I often 'cheat' by using measures, grid paper and tracing paper, lol).

Indeed the movement of the pencil can matter a lot, as can how good your compasses are. I've found that a bevelled ruler can be better if turned over so that the pencil rests against the bevel. Otherwise you have to take account of the width of the pencil lead and adjust the ruler position to take account of it.

Certainly small errors in line position, length and (especially) angle can have a huge effect over a large diagram that has a lot of symmetries. It's surprising how noticeable even a small error of 0.5 mm between two lines is that should be colinear.

>first, being 25+ year old code, it's single threaded. It doesn't matter how many CPU cores you have, it only uses one.

Ah, yes, the reverse of the "Javascript changes too quickly and has too many libraries" problem; companies refusing to rewrite old code because "it still works".

I feel like we should all be striving for the perfectly balanced as all things should be moments in development, code should never be left to languish for years without updates, but nor should it be updated when the wind changes.
Thanks for checking it, appreciated

- Well, 2x is nothing to write home about.

- DSP-compatibility probably considered but never surfaced as a reason, so hard to guess investigation results. + Pricing and availability of said DSP modules

- Robustness - well, that's one of the primary features of opus, battle tested by WebRTC, WhatsApp etc. (including packet loss concealment (PLC), Bit-Rate Redundancy (LBRR) frames)

- Algorithmic delay for opus is low, much lower than older BT codecs, so that definitely wasn't a deal breaker

- Ability to make money out of standard is definitely important thing to have

That was not the point of the statement. The argument (possibly poorly phrased) was the there are people people out there that are comfortable with manipulating arrays of numbers than there are programmers who are capable of writing a Java program.

So, if the goal is to make it easier for someone to take the leap from a spreadsheet to a programming language, array languages are likely an easier hill to climb (people already familiar with, say, Python, might struggle, but they are not likely to be interested in learning a new programming paradigm anyway).
AFAIK small states are treated as exceptions because the conscription leaves you with the same amount of men as professional armies of bigger countries. But there has been a lot of talk in the past few years of changing this, but politically it would be immensely unpopular.
> when will array enthusiasts understand that having first letter A does not mean the language should be aimed at Aliens? […] get over your "code golf" tendencies

I've always assumed that people working on these languages come from a heavy maths background, so to them the sequence of symbols is more “naturally” readable. So saying “if array language people used words I'd understand better” is not unlike saying “if the Chinese would only speak English there would be less language barriers”. Not wrong, of course, but perhaps not a reasonable expectation.

> DON'T... produce adult or "NSFW" content in connection with the event. Your PG-13 review of a classic Mac FPS game where you use language you'd hear on broadcast TV is likely fine. To be clear: We absolutely want to encourage everyone from all communities to participate in the event, but we just ask that folks do not produce NSFW content for the event. We're no prudes, but we do want to keep the event open to as wide an audience as possible (with the exception of potentially disenfranchising boudoir photography). Remember: it's about consent. Having some saucy content drop into someone's feed while they're looking for old Macs might be offputting or inappropriate to someone not looking for or unable to consent to viewing that content.

Yes, but you are arguing against something I never stated. My point stands: The communist countries had aspects which worked better. And I haven't seen anyone (besides tankies) seriously stating "let's go back to the UDSSR and it's satellite states", but many people noting the same thing: Some things worked better. Let's learn from that. And those then get shouted down with "all communist countries were shit! you never lived in one, or you wouldn't say things like this!"
Gartner et al. need to be seen as trendy and at the forefront of each industry they are in, so as you say there is never a trend they won't jump on. I suspect there is some value in actually talking to their analysts to work out which products actually work well, and which failed implementations are really due to client problems, but their written reports aren't much more than a list of the biggest players in each sector.

Fine, then let's pick other industries not related to the defense industry.

Like industrial automation robots, those came way after WW2, by the desire of capitalists to speed up production and reduce costs of products to the point capitalist economies had much more successful exports, like steel, due to superior technology and automation despite the ultra low costs and wages in communist economies but which were behind on tech and mostly just produced low quality stuff for the local markets as they were uncompetitive abroad.

Or farming technology. Communist countries often struggled to feed their people, but that wasn't really an issue in the capitalist economies where the west had an abundant amount of calories thanks to the free market supply and demand pushing production and innovation in farming automation.

So despite the communist system being focused on the working class (on paper) and the capitalist system on greed and enriching the shareholders, ultimately the workers under capitalism had it better.
Is there an initiative going on to make hibernation work on Linux?

I think this is a much higher priority... Honestly, this is the only thing that bothers me about Linux. I need to keep my machine suspended between use sessions, which is a waste of the planet's resources. Imagine that multiplied by the dozens (maybe 100's?) of thousands of engineers doing the same?
From personal experience and having been burned by odd SVG bugs too many times over the years, a dumb image is simple, it works and you know that it works. I only reach for SVG when I need to do something that other formats cannot.

This Stanford-Binet IQ test was created to tell less intelligent kids from average, to let them grow in special school programs. They don't measure all intelligence, just a part of it. I mean one can go there and get 140 and boast oneself, but there are some IQ 90 guys there in the world earning six figures, so the good grade on this test does not mean one is great in every field of living

Yeah I played around with it a bit and I really like it, but I've never really had a reason to use it professionally since I'm mostly targetting Linux and as you say it's definitely seen as being a bit exclusive to Apple land.

Can't complain though my current daily driver is Scala and that's also a fantastic language to work with.
> Because you are late on paying your entire balance

No, it is normal to carry a balance on a credit card.

The normal ("normal") way to use a credit card, before ubiquitous financing that seems to be everywhere today, is to allow you to buy something that costs a couple of pay periods, but instead of saving up and buying it later, you buy it now and pay it off gradually. It's the same way all debt is supposed to work (mortgages, business loans, etc).

You are still supposed to pay on time though, hence the late fee when you miss a payment.
I am ambivalent on how accurate the test is for an LLM, but it's interesting nonetheless and can be used as a complementary metric for LLM capabilities.

Unlike Chatbot Arena leaderboard and standard benchmark datasets, visuospatial IQ tests are largely knowledge-free and focused on measuring pattern matching and reasoning capabilities.

Doesn't matter. If it is pitched as an alternative to spreadsheets being that much less straightforward is a big downside. And downsides will be used by actual people to weigh their decisions.

Why not make it straightforward first and then when people understand it, introduce the shortcuts? Not nerdy enough?

Sometimes I have the feeling that a certain type of peogrammer doesn't even want others to understand what's going on, what they want is bending them to their own will and conventions.

It seems like you put a lot of thought and effort into this. Were you happy with the results?

If you could put the entire book into the context window of Gemini (1M tokens), how do you think it would compare with your approach? It would cost like $15 to do this, so not cheap but also cost effective considering the time you’ve spent chunking it.
I thought this is going to be about floating point inaccuracies. For example, here's a Blender Geometry Nodes setup that instead of constructing a circle using a provided node "Circle", or by positioning and connecting points, which coordinates are calculated independently using an incremented angle, sine and cosine, instead draws a circle by walking in a circle: on each step ("extrusion"), the direction of the step is rotated by 360°/total_steps (for 360 steps it's rotated by 1°). The more steps there are, the bigger the accumulated floating point error (the error is guaranteed when positioning a new vertex, which position is stored as a xyz triplet of float32 values, but I imagine in Blender code floats are used as well).

"promoting" is just a short-hand, what happens is a bit more complicated.

First of all remember that the corresponding membar on the collector would only synchronize with the last membar executed on the mutator thread. So if the collector executes significantly less often the mutator, all the executed mutator membars except the last one is wasted overhead. So ideally we want to elide all mutator membars except those that are actually needed.

What actually happens is that the collector thread remotely executes some code (either directly via a signal or indirectly via mprotect or sys_membar) on the mutator thread that executes the #StoreLoad on its behalf. Sending the required interprocess interrupt is very expensive, but this is ideally offsetted by only doing it when truly required.

You can model[1] this as a signal handler executing on the mutator thread that issues an actual atomic_thread_fence to synchronize with the collector, while the mutator itself only need a atomic_signal_fence (i.e. a compiler barrier) to synchronize with the signal handler.

[1] even if this is not necessarily what happens when using mprotect or sys_membar.
It’s indeed fascinating. My gut feeling is they aren’t much more flawed in measure intelligence as they are for humans.
I am curious about the legality of this. I guess I assumed that doing this type of thing would technically a DCMA type breech? So this makes me wonder if my assumption wrong? How does this work legally?

It wasn't a full specturm IQ test, but some random mensa test that looks like the online 'test your IQ' nonsense. And the software was given precise written descriptions of the visual questions after performing too poorly otherwise. This completely removes the element of visual-spatial understanding that the questions are testing to begin with!

But I think there's also a more salient point. Correlated abilities mean different things for different groups. The ability to do simple math rapidly is generally going to correlate with intelligence for a human. That doesn't mean a calculator, which can do simple math millions of times faster than the fastest human, is thus millions of times more intelligent.
Reminds me of this talk where they measured an LLMs performance and in how well it can draw a unicorn and modify it using svg.

All measures are wrong but some are useful.

Turing-completeness has nothing to do with safety. XML parsing isn't Turing complete, AFAIK, yet external entity resolution is a problem. Postscript is Turing complete, but I think it can be properly sandboxed, it's a VM with no IO other than "pages" that it can draw on.
Only if they already speak English. When I first learned C, I didn’t know English well enough to understand what “if” or “else” meant. I learned these words in the context of programming first, and natural language second. This experience is probably the same for most of the world’s programmers.

When I was learning programming back then, those keywords could just as well have been single letters. It wouldn’t have made a difference.

Also, I went up to my printer and there is no “WTF” there. Surely, this program doesn’t work! More seriously, this just illustrates that convention and idioms are much more powerful carriers of meaning than dictionary words. Array languages rely heavily on conventions/idioms.
I assume you need to split the data to suitable sized database rows matching your model max length? Or does it do some chunking magic automatically?

Holy crap, ChatGPT 3.5 fared terribly on that one. I'm usually negative to these kinds of tests and rather rely on the blind test at the leaderboard on Hugging Face, but this one was special in the unique results that still makes "sense".

It looks kind of like a particularly punishing test but one that still adheres to the trend and LLM advances, so it's not completely BS either.

I actually agree on the test regarding the free Bing Copilot in Creative Mode vs Gemini Pro 1.0 (or called "Gemini (normal)" here). Copilot has been my favorite free way of getting near-GPT4 quality. It's clearly been better at coding for me than Gemini. I think these tables will turn soon though, with the coming public launch of Gemini Pro 1.5.

OpenAI at this point must be literally #1 target for every single big spying agency in whole world.

As we saw previously it doesn't matter much if you are top notch ai researcher, if 1-2 millions of your potential personal wealth are in stake this affect decision making (and probably would mine too).

How much of a bribe would it take for anybody inside with good enough access to switch sides and take all the golden eggs out? 100 million? A billion? Trivial amounts compared to what we discuss. And they will race each other to your open arms for such amounts.

We see sometimes recently ie government officials betraying their own countries to russian spies in Europe for few hundred - few thousands of euros. A lot of people are in some way selfish by nature, or can be manipulated easily via emotions. Secret services across the board are experts in that, it just works(tm).

To sum it up - I don't think it can be protected long term.
It's only strange if you think the lawsuit has merit, and I'm yet to find anyone credible who thinks it does. If you believe the lawsuit is just a vexatious move to attack OpenAI then it makes perfect sense to just fight it as a PR battle.
