Bayesian Neural Networks for Predicting Unseen Classes
Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) provide a unique approach to neural network modeling by incorporating uncertainty into predictions. This tutorial explores the application of BNNs in predicting novel unseen classes to address one major limitation to most of ML/DL models.
Wouldn't the same problem happen with most other (if not all?) FOSS licenses?
That's a fair answer. Although I still don't agree with rust being particularly fitting for that problem.
Very good questions. Even though I haven't studied the topic rigorously, I would like to offer my impression.

People are very bad at reasoning about motives of others. Faulty syllogism goes: Nobel invented dynamite. He became wealthy. Therefore, he must have been driven by desire for wealth. Same goes for Pasteur, of course. Maybe he was driven by desire for wealth, but couldn't succeed. My Bayesian senses tell me that Pasteur not being driven by greed is more likely, but I digress.

Leaving individuals aside, I believe that a system that doesn't reward greed is a better system. When a system rewards greed, anti-social behavior becomes prevalent, because it's easier to eat others' pie rather than making a bigger cake. In a system that doesn't reward greed, I believe that curious people will make the cake bigger for the sake of it.
I think it's useful to distinguish between self-awareness as mutable or immutable. In which sense I agree that both your server and this LLM have an immutable self-awareness which is indeed not very interesting.

I'll only start taking any talk of self-awareness seriously once online learning is happening.
Daniel can be wrong. He can even be wrong about curl.

He's probably correct here, as far as I can determine in 2 minutes, but "he's correct because it's Daniel" is the worst possible argument.

One of the advantages is that this can be defined and handled on the prototype level and not just in the instance. Personally, I'd see the interrupt-like catch-all behavior rather as an advantage (all messages are received in a single slot), but this may be up to personal taste. And, while it's true that similar binding can be achieved using closures, this has also been true for arrow functions. It's just a convenient solution in the mindset of the original ECMA Script (ECMA 262-2).

Regarding prototypes, mind how this shares methods between instances, rather than consuming (and locking) resources by individual closures created in each of the instances (which, when GC was still based on reference count, would also have meant memory leaks):

function Counter(buttonElement) {
this.clicked = 0;
buttonElement.addEventlistener("click", this, false);
}
Counter.prototype = {
reset: function() { this.clicked = 0; },
log: function() { concole.log("I was clicked " + this.clicked + " times."); },
handleEvent: function(event) { this.clicked++; this.log(); }
};
a proposition does not need to be proved nor falsified. It can exist as a hypothesis.

I think that is what the parent commenter points to.

I the current environment it is dangerous to be fixed in your opinion, at least until there are proper proofs of anything.

That behaviour is also a curl configuration option i.e. with-ca-fallback.

If I may, what is 'AGI' you are talking about? And how can we set up a test which will show that 'thing' isn't GI while humans are. I'm asking because there are different opinions, some believe AGI should reproduce itself, have self-preservation instincts, have a body. To me even long term memory isn't obviously required. This is 'creature' feature. Which is irrelevant to GI. (actually it's more complicated)

Authoritarian states are a very ineffective model. A leader can lead their small band of merry man to rob the highway alright. But it doesn't scale up to larger groups of people.

If you talk to the CEOs of large companies or miltary leaders, you find that they are unable to exert effective control of their organisations. The organisation will do whatever it wants to do. The leader can make their command but at every level through the organisation that command will be slightly subverted. The more layers, the less of that command will get through.

Since it's in the news, take for example Putin and Russia, Putin thought he had tank battalions that his lower downs had sold for parts decades ago. Based on the information in front of him, he should have taken Ukraine in several days regardless of resistance by the locals.

And whilst you might think it's impressive that he cut the budget in US congress to Ukraine, back-handed deals to send old Soviet equipment from 3rd party countries to Ukraine were made and now they are exhausted London is loaning Ukraine, Russia's money.

Putin's authoritarian Russia might be able to cut off the head of democracy but he's up against a five headed hydra. Democracy is a lot more scary than Authoritarism from a military perspective.

"You do not want your food supply being run according to democratic principles, you want it to work."

This is something that people don't really get, what's important is that the people delivering the food get the sack if they failed to do it. As long as that happens it's okay.

That's the reason why socialist and overly authoritarian countries have supply problems, they don't have an effective mechanism to replace failing organisations. Venezuela isn't able to extract Oil because the Oil dereks are run by the local dictator's family members.
This is the kind of behaviour (corporate and software) that I would anticipate if some government has ordered them to secretly install it as a back door — a government-controlled item in the CA store (which isn't necessarily obvious, I think it just means at least one private key got copied), a requirement that all first-party software must use that store, and a requirement not to admit that this is a problem.
Presumably apple are setting this[0]? Emphasis mine.

CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA

Tell libcurl to use the operating system's native CA store for certificate verification. If you set this option and *also set a CA certificate file* or directory then during verification those certificates are searched in addition to the native CA store.

It seems as though if the --cacert and this option are combined, libcurl tries to honor both of them. Perhaps they should be mutually exclusive?
Any more factual descriptions of the story? What were the "bad changes"? Done by whom? Why wouldn't the CTO check the source code themselves?
No. We're thinking about a government that doesn't rush into potentially irreversible actions without working out a solution for a problem with the parties involved.

You've misread. I didn't mention existing models. I agree that it is an extraordinary claim that existing models demonstrate anything like AGI or sentience.

I said it was delusional that AI can never be sentient or self-aware. That is also an extraordinary claim that requires extraordinary evidence, and nobody has any.

People usually mention stochastic parrots and the Chinese room, but their arguments are very obviously flawed:

1. Current gen AI may only seem like a stochastic parrot, but there's no reason to believe that human intelligence isn't just a really fancy stochastic parrot.

2. The Chinese room experiment just confuses things by anthropomorphizing a single part of the whole intelligent system (i.e. saying there's a man in the room). If you look at the room as a whole, then yes it does understand Chinese. Similarly if you go the other way and imagine each of the neurons in a Chinese person was a tiny man following simple instructions, does that mean the Chinese person no longer understands Chinese? No of course not.
A professional reviewer is paid by the publication they write for, or, these days, increasingly, by a monetised YouTube channel. A ‘reviewer’ who accepts pay from the manufacturer of the thing they’re ‘reviewing’ is actually doing advertisement, not reviewing. And if they don’t disclose they’ve been paid, they’re doing _fraud_.

My day job is solely Debian, so even acknowledging that I like OpenBSD and find NetBSD really interesting, I always find myself reverting back to: I'll just use Debian for this, it will be quicker.

Maybe there's something to be said for using an operating systems that is somewhat different for your home use and side project. Maybe it gives you a clearer separation of work and personal life?

If all you do everyday is code Python, Java, Go or whatever it might be, it's helpful to expose yourself to new and different languages like LISP, Haskell or Rust. It helps you see problems and solutions from different angles. Maybe the same is true for operating systems, I should try it out.

> You're right that plenty of people do ascribe Apple credit for inventions that they didn't invent

The number of people who do this is far, far outweighed by the people who claim they see it all the time.
Because, firstly, EU is not a country, I'm a EU citizen and I certainly do not approve of this policy but there's no way for me (or for other people who think the same as me) to vote out the people that make those decisions (I'm also not a French citizen, maybe that way I could have had an effect on Macron holding power or not).

It's a double-edged sword for the EU leaders in the middle to long-term, because once a great part of the European population will start realising that they have been in effect disenfranchised then said population will have no qualms in following new political leaders that will leave "democracy" at the side, and thus leaving the concept of the EU for dead.
You mean Apple, who modified the code to work in this broken way.
I've seen plenty of badly argued Chinese room debates- there is certainly a lot of bad arguments in those styles. You seem to interpret them as saying all of those arguments are bad, which is a fair interpretation, but I think their point stands if it refers to the nonsense versions of those arguments, which are everywhere on social media (hn, reddit, X, etc).

By the way, I think referring to the burden of proof in discussions like this is likely never to improve the debate. All sides will simply claim the burden is on others for one reason or another, most of those reasons will be flawed- requiring discussions on those flaws and now we're even further from the actual points we want to discuss. I've just never seen it produce a fruitful discussion.

I mean, I get where you're coming from and as someone who has spent a long time pondering and still wants kids, I can maybe offer you some solace in my conclusions.

A lot of "thinking-about-meaning" for me has transformed into fatalism. I firmly believe that our cognitive faculties demand a higher purpose, though I can't define what that purpose is. I disassemble my thought process, and prod deeper into my logical functions as to why I'm drawn to certain conclusions. At some point, I realize that I need to combat shortcomings and psychological "self-tricks" my mind instinctively employs. I'm prone to wanting shortcuts. In fact, I think this is the default state of non-abberant human thought. Visually, your eyes can hallucinate in the form of optical illusions where it employs predictive generated information based on patterns. Intuitively, you come to a conclusion because you've experienced proximity to similarity. But similarities are not, by definition, identical. In this delta lies all of humanity's greatest accomplishments, exploits, and suffering.

And in this I come to address the fundamental problem of "thinking-about-meaning". We draw experience from similarities, but we don't have a definitive state of 'singularity'. This is the barrier of human thought. You face the insurmountable variance of uncertainty. Cursed to cobble together primitive inference. Barely navigating this incomprehensible reality. You will never have a satisfying answer. You will always be isolated. You will always be alone. You will never be able to 'truly' share this experience with anyone else. And in here we long for comfort the most. We share wisdom and aphorisms. Our little 'shortcuts' in life.

This behaviour is part of curl (proper) and is set via compile time flags.

It's cool that it could notice that, but the phrasing is likely idiomatic. It does not necessarily imply consciousness.

In any case, "self-awareness" and "sentience" are such poorly-defined concepts: it's the same we humans have, but we don't even understand what it is that we have. How could we evaluate if something else has it?

Unfortunately for your argument, the brute fact is that courts often say otherwise if the company puts on sufficient evidence of how agreement is indicated and of its records indicating that the individual did in fact agree. See, e.g., Ruiz v. Moss Bros. Auto Group, Inc., 232 Cal. App. 4th 836, 844-45 (2014) (explaining how this works in practice) [0]; Aerotek, Inc. v. Boyd, 624 S.W.3d 199 (Tex. 2021) (same) [1].

Borrowing from what the late Charlie Munger famously said, you have to understand the incentives at work here:

• In the 1925 Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), Congress explicitly approved arbitration.

• Over time, judges have come to realize that arbitration agreements reduce their workloads: For a judge, it's much easier to review and (usually) "confirm," that is, enforce, an award by a neutral arbitrator, who conducted a fair hearing and allowed the parties a reasonable opportunity to put on evidence, than it is to conduct a full-blown court case, including overseeing the pre-trial proceedings and managing the complexities of a jury trial.

• Cutting the courts' workload even further: Under the FAA, a party that loses an arbitration has very limited grounds for appeal — the Supreme Court has said, in effect, you bargained for an arbitrator's decision in lieu of being able to go to court, so that's what you get. See Oxford Health Plans LLC v. Sutter, 569 U.S. 564, 133 S. Ct. 2064, 2068 (2013) [2]

(California and Texas allow expanded grounds of appeal if the parties so agree, but consumer arbitration provisions seldom include such agreements.)

• Another incentive: Because of the limited grounds of appeal of an arbitration award, a trial judge who merely confirms an arbitration award is less likely to be reversed by an appellate court than if the trial judge conducted a full-blown court case. That's significant because as a general proposition, trial judges are not fond of being reversed by appellate courts.

There are also GNU/Linux phones. Sent from my Librem 5.
Raising the price in a visible way comes with a higher cost (risk that consumers will stop buying your product/pick a competitor). Doing it in a hidden way through shrinkflation means many consumers don't notice, making it easier for companies to raise prices.

As the act explains, it actually is Coca-Cola's and Heinz' fault that some of the inflation exists, because some of it is just them raising prices to make more profit.

Requiring price increases to be done "openly" will likely reduce inflation, by discouraging price increases.
