The big problem in academia very often is that you cannot simply take your research and finish your PhD elsewhere. With jobs you mostly can switch without losing much. Obviously depends on the situation.
If you're concerned that you've made/found something dangerous, the most appropriate solution is to disclose it to people who can evaluate how dangerous it is, and work with them on next steps.

In your hypothetical, I would observe that Paul Christiano is close to being the person in the US government in charge of evaluating AI danger, and that he is currently involved with https://www.alignment.org/ who specifically consider issues of AI risk. I would humbly contact them and ask for guidance on how to proceed.

Be prepared to be dismissed as a crank. Remember that avoiding harm to others is more important than proving that you're right.
Yeah VASAviation posted a video with ATC audio and the runway/taxiway layout [0], which definitely suggests that they were just taxiing and turned wide. Seems most likely to be pilot error, maybe with poor visibility or braking performance or something contributing (weather seems to have been fine but I don't want to pass judgement without all the details).

> A lot of money depends on things staying as they are.

Not just for the farmers, but also for the agrochemical industry, which has a lot of cash flow and invested capital to lose from the success of regenerative farming techniques.

Permaculture may require more in certain forms of labor costs, but it's offset by a reduction in costs spent on crop treatment. Money that would go to labor instead of capital, that reduces negative externalities (and in fact exudes positive externalities, because it has the potential to make farms a carbon sink) should be seen as a win, societally. Unfortunately, those varieties of reversal are often presented as a technological step "backwards" – be wary.
I've been pretty happy with the EliteDesk G3 I got off eBay a couple months ago. I actually use it for light work (mostly spreadsheets and emails) too.

I think I paid less than $130 including shipping and sometimes it (anecdotally) has better performance than my home PC which is a full tower I bought new 4-5 years back.
Speculation is what we do, doesn't harm anyone, and is good to prime the brain for more detailed technical information. I'm fine with it. In fact, I think I learn more about how these systems interoperate by the speculation.

A family member got tricked by a similar scam. They asked for a refund and ultimately got one after lightly threatening a credit card chargeback. High chargebacks cause card issuers to close merchant accounts, so they are a genuine threat.

non-sequitur.

getting phished results in the decision to enter the credentials. The mechanism for doing so is irrelevant to that decision.
That's a poor comparison because Apple isn't a local business. They're everywhere.

And to the extent that they act as if they were localized, they continue to treat EU customers as if they were in the EU until the customer chooses to change region. Selling to them through the EU app store, charging EU prices, with EU policies.

Economic growth isn't great but could be a lot worse if I look at the rest of the world.

Energy transition for sure has some huge challenges but again, we're doing pretty great compared to other places in the world.

Housing is an issue, but where isn't housing an issue?
I think the core problem you have is a lack of consistency. I'd try to trim down the number of different types of device/deployment methods/etc you have. It's too hard to scale wide as a single person or two, but you can go very deep in one stack and both know it very well and also get into a spot where it's kind of like either everything works or nothing works if it's all exactly the same, which means ultimately everything will have to work well.
> Since, ultimately, his duty as a CEO is to prioritize the financial wealth of shareholders.

I feel like the whole fiduciary responsibility bit is always the foundation of terrible arguments. As if every individual choice that earns a dollar is therefore forced.

Earning multiple billion dollar fines is not serving shareholders. Sabotaging the future is not serving shareholders. Destroying goodwill is not serving shareholders.

Apple's various tantrums and desperate clutching onto their market hasn't remotely been beneficial for the company, and I'd argue it is a big reason the company has started plateauing. Like how Valve went from being a game maker to being a purveyor of gambling crates and keys, Apple is desperately pimping for every bit of rent-seeking and service fees.
It actually gives me great joy to imagine this.

And, bro, “status quo” is literally a form of bias, not reasoning
If I wanted to use this software to finetune a 70b model on two 3090s to write fiction, what is the maximum sequence length that would be practical? I'm at the dataset collection stage, but I'm not sure whether to aim for bigger or smaller sequence lengths at the moment.
My expectation is that a government would do an investigation first, but I believe that a split would look like this:

- The computing hardware company
- The accessory hardware company
- The operating system company
- The software company
- The cloud services company
- The app store company
- The music & video company
- The messaging company

So yeah, a split looks scary.
That's me to a tee.

I have been told I have imposter syndrome by many people. I get all the "You are better than you think you are" and "Trust me, I've seen worse than you."

Regardless, I think I have a pretty accurate assessment of my abilities. I have been professionally programming for 7 years (10 years total) and have a degree in CS.

That being said, I have no fucking idea what I am doing 99% of the time. I just follow guides and documents, and just glue libraries together like a cyber plumber. I probably couldn't even reverse a string by hand if my life depended on it. My job has a pretty low bar for what is considered acceptable, so I have been able to fly under the radar with ease all these years. I'm not being modest, I am being serious. The jaws of many users here would hit the floor if they saw some of our practices.

However, the good news for me is that I do not have to remain like this. Over the past few months or so, I have really tried to increase my knowledge by diving face first in books, lectures, and other resources. I feel like I have improved significantly in this short amount of time. I mean, I am basically starting all over again, but hey, I can maintain the status quo or I can do something about it.

I guess my whole point is that, one may be an "imposter" and/or incompetent, but it's also one's choice to remain as one.
Dune is pretty good, deserves talking about.

It's good that the movies are bringing it back into the public eye.
Good news -- axolotl has just merged support for FSDP/QLoRA training, thanks to a rapid collaboration between the axolotl and Answr.AI teams!
Not building enough housing and red tape around building housing is also a problem, but perhaps by design to achieve the same goals.

It's fast enough to do realtime (7 tok/s) chat with 120b models.

And yes, of course it's not magic, and in principle there's no reason why a dedicated LLM-box with heaps of fast DDR5 couldn't cost less. 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. The beauty of Mac Studio is that you just plug it in, and it works.
This game has aged very well. You can pick it up for next to nothing on GOG. Highly recommended. The game is not very hard but you will likely have to start over a few times before you get the hang of it. This is normal. Dune is best without spoilers, so maybe skip the video.

> For my home lab, I won’t be needing CAT8 or CAT7 anytime soon

Has anyone ever needed CAT7 (or better)? CAT6 works for 10 GBit at a short distance, but in my experience (in corporate IT) I've literally never seen a 10 GBit Ethernet port! SFPs are the shit, direct attach SFPs are cheap as chips and fiber ones aren't even that expensive anymore. And of course fiber will handily beat twisted pair in signal integrity at any distance.
Possibly all of the above.

An MRI shouldn't cost $26k, even with contrast, and at a hospital.

If this was non-emergency, it should have been pre-cleared with insurance per their policy.
Having self-control can give a false sense of self-righteousness, and if you're not careful, this will lead to you eventually caring about how you look and you will do whatever it takes to maintain the image of self-control/responsibility. If you carefully analyze this, you are now basing your self-worth on external appearances, therefore you are giving your control away to anyone who can see this projection. Anyone experienced with controlling others can sniff out this projection and then use it against you in this way: "We need to think about the importance of handling this (X) responsibly. What do you think we should do?". Now they are telling you they think you can make responsible decisions on an important decision, stroking your projected ego, and they've activated your want to act responsibly to do something for them.

Now, it doesn't always mean that this is a way someone is manipulating you. Self-control is realizing that this ego-stroke feeling of making you feel important does not mean to need to involve yourself or act. You need to separate the emotion from the decision-making process and realize that others can use your emotions to manipulate you. It's up to you to decide whether you can trust this person or not, you just need to be aware that the emotion could have been intentional or unintentional.

Damn. Thank you for sharing, and I'm sorry you went through that. I'm glad you were there to help though.

It's definitely worth knowing that "LSD is safe" is only half the story. Our bodies can process insane amounts, but our minds can break with less than a dose.
I don't disagree with this - but work at a co-op if you prefer that system of management?

I actually like working at a corporation because I don't have to play politics or worry about parts of the business I'm not involved in. It would be hell if I had to spend my evenings in meetings about foreign policy issues or disciplinary hearings for employees in other departments.
The fact that you so innately equate autistic with “different” that you put it in quotes falsely implying it is in the comment you replied to is far more offensive than anything the person you’re replying to said

"should" is doing a lot of work there. Im so many ways we're in

to be.
Yes? Housing is infinitely better than the US, job security can be better, work life balance is better, cities are nicer to look at, architecture is better, people are more active, fitter, have lives beyond work. The bread is better, so is the cheese. There is real food available. Public transport is plentiful. Society feels a bit less polarised.

The EU is infinitely better than living in the states. At least for this third world immigrant.

That you can contemplate how you contemplate is different from what current AI can contemplate. The photo is probably real, but isn't the point, the metapicture is the photographer.
You don't need to just "get past Earth's orbit", you need to deorbit out of Earth's orbit around the sun if you want to reach the sun. This requires a much higher (at least double) delta-v than leaving Earth's gravity well alone.
I probably agree, but it would look better coming from a medical journal
How can you have lead and chromium in cinnamon ? Is it due to how it's harvested or processed ?
Yes, Google either don't care about scams, or they actively encourage them because they get a cut. Google are not the good guys here.

I regularly see scams on YouTube, e.g. an advert showing a video of Elon Musk explaining how he's going to give money away. Unambiguously a scam. I report the adverts, they are fine, according to Google. https://twitter.com/adrianmsmith/status/1727623865952514493

Indeed I did. It now says "second hospital" in the last paragraph. I can't know whether I mis-read or if it was edited to clarify, but I definitely did misunderstand the story.
You say this is for generative AI. How do you distribute inference across workers? Can one use just any protocol and how does this work together with the queue and fault tolerance?

Could not find any specifics on generative AI in your docs. Thanks
What weight do you assign Mozilla's data point? It isn't rational to say zero, is it? Also consider that Chromium still doesn't have a parallel CSS engine -- my understanding is that they tried and failed as well.

I've also written systems in Rust, some embarrassingly parallel and some that are more complex than that. The embarrassingly parallel ones never took more than 10 minutes of effort to do. The more complex ones are harder but still possible.

I agree that your data point should also be assigned non-zero weight.
and these are just the chemicals you hear about. what about all the nonsense that never even makes the front pages?

I don't trust industrialized agriculture, especially not here in the US.

personally, I grow as much of my food as I can (lots of fruits trees and very large garden), especially from the dirty 15. and those that I can't grow, I buy organic though that doesn't always save you completely.
Ok friends, I have an update.
They emailed (and SMSed!) me back asking for more details. The questions were legit (regarding my previous citizenship etc.) But I used the opportunity to ask them to cancel my order. Within 10 minutes got a replied back that the order was canceled (no questions asked) and indeed the reservation on my credit card is gone.

I can see similar stories here (i.e. when asked to cancel they cancel and give money back): https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.usimmigrationsupport.c...

Just for me to sleep better tonight, I shall interpret this as a confirmation of the theory that this not a scam-scam, but just a business set up to trick idiots like me. And once they see that you realize - they just cancel in order to avoid confrontation. Cheaper and easier.
My experience is that the main reason why Rust is faster than JS in some applications is that the latter tends to do a lot of copying and other memory-intensive tasks - especially those related to running the JS virtual machine.

If you can reduce the problem to a series of operations on pre-allocated typed arrays, JS is fast enough.

Unfortunately in the case of Rollup that would be hard to do.
Ridiculous that Google isn't being held partially responsible for cases such as this. Allowing these ads is negligent behaviour.
IME LLMs are decent at summarizing text, I can see how it can help summarize various processes that must be done. I am unsure how it summarizes truly novel things tho, I would assume it might hallucinate more but haven't experimented much.

If my actual doctor responded to my messages within some SLA (2 days?) then I'm more than happy to pay much more.

Now a days what happens is I send a message with photos or many details, and some poor nurse who is assigned message triage is going through many and responds with generic pointless text for my issue.

Then I get charged $15.
The threading stuff was being worked on at the same time across Linux and BSD and System V derived systems, and this was during the early Unix wars. Cgroups came long after jails, and I think the need would have been less, although there are reasons they look the way they do.
I admit I think there are reasons beyond that. I realize it's anecdotal, but I rarely hear about this type of event at Amazon or Microsoft or even Apple. Google attracts a lot of disputes like this.

I would speculate it has something to do with what age range they like to hire or their branding. But I'm not sure.
Yep, the thing you wrote about IAB made me think Zaraz did something it doesnt. My bad. My comment was intended for people writing (and using) those horrible consent dialogs.
Edit: why you need to care about demands from IAB I dont know, but you probably have a reason
No, there's definitely the potential for harm.

Considering United has had 3 accidents in the past week, dogpiling Boeing for something that might not be their fault has the side effect of potentially letting United off the hook - if they're at fault. Which maybe both are, or maybe neither are, but the dogpile won't help sort that out.
As someone who has worked in both PCI and PHI environments (and by extension PII), often times these aren't actually about compliance but about someone's interpretation of compliance.

What tends to happen is that auditors aren't going to tell you not to do something you don't have to, they're going to tell you to do to the things you must. Then the ones going "above and beyond" become convinced they're great at this compliance thing and others who don't do it are mistaken.

A perfect example is that PCI compliances requires firewalls but I know of a CISO that insisted on hardware level separation between networks with no way to bridge between them. The amount of pain and harm he did to that company cannot be overstated but he was convinced it was a requirement of PCI-DSS.
Great! Thank you for dissolving my doubts.

About Zon, I was just curious if you had any issues with it. I also need to finally start using it in my small projects.

Good luck with Zig!
Alternative extension to do something similar, but using VSCode's native notebooks: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jaaxxx.l.... It's more tailored to crafting long-form few-shot prompts, rather than a single text box. Think ChatGPT playground but with a text editor interface that isn't absolutely terrible.

Nice part about that one is no separate server, no telemetry, and the backing file format is simple JSON you can directly import from your production application. However the range of supported models is smaller (basically only LLaMa-style and OpenAI-style interfaces are supported).
The affordable housing that politicians in K-W have focused on is neither sustainable nor sufficient. They are looking at inclusionary zoning which leads to 6-8 “affordable” units in a 300-400 unit development (I.e. drop in the bucket when thousands of units are needed), or they fund non-profits to do very small scale affordable retrofits and somehow manage to spend around $800k-1m per affordable unit brought to market (I.e. not sustainable and also not at a scale to make a dent). The Ontario government needs to create a housing group that does purely affordable developments at large scale, similar to BC.

Side note: K-W represent! :-)
The "exponential growth forever" microsecond of human history will be looked on as a fever dream in the future, and hopefully the masses who support that ideology will be remembered with the same contempt as slavers.

Beyond the most literal temperature definition: if "lukewarm" denotes a lack of sensation or excitement, shouldn't its antonym be "exhilarating"?

And as for temperature, where it means "no discernable temperature", it has two "antonyms": freezing and scalding.
> Not all beef is equal. Almost all the beef I eat is from the UK, and most of it grass fed.

I mean, all beef is equal in the sense that it's not an efficient use of resources, including space, to feed cattle vs growing crops that feed humans. That's basically true no matter where the land is.

Anyway, if we are talking about the Amazon, there is absolutely no conversation to be had that doesn't center on beef. Talking about Amazon deforestation specifically being driven by anything other than cattle ranching is so wrong it's evil, and plenty of UK beef also comes from the Amazon.
How is this compatible with being a non-profit?
yeah - I don't have a need for a lot of drives, but its hard to come by...but the odroids have a PCIE expansion slot, so you might be able to add a add-on controller...

Edit: Oh shit...just checked, it does NOT have a PCIE slot..I was sure it did :-(
