Dropping messages occasionally can be fine, but the problem with UDP is that the packet loss is silent.

I believe UDP can be lossy even on localhost when there's technically no network, so you'd have to track the message count on both the sender and recipient sides. It's also more sensitive to minor glitches, whereas TCP + a very small buffer would allow you to smooth over those cases.

I use NATS (which is UDP-based) for a similar kind of firehose system, and the amount of loss can sometimes reach 6-7%.

But where does it say that it has to be done like that? There are a lot of functions that map [0, 2³² - 1] to [0, 84]⁵ or to [0, 85⁵ - 1] which they at least imply by mentioning the base-85 representation. There is of course the canonical mapping, the identity function, but it never says that we are supposed to use it.

Internet Explorer being absolute trash means you cannot trust them to write a browser. I remember when Edge was coming out they did some AMAs on social media that didn't inspire confidence so I doubled down on my resolve to never use a Microsoft browser.

This news has me tripling down on never using a Microsoft OS. The double-down for that was stories of forced or unexpected OS updates.
Not really an everyday object, but as the linking output scrolled by as I was compiling the Linux Kernel the other day... It really drove it home how many man hours were invested into making this modern marvel of human collaboration into what has become the by far most used software on the planet.
There are good and bad tests.... ;) Good = actually tests something, precisely, properly, doesn't take an age to run. Enough of these in CI, and a deploy is far less likely to break prod. Bad = author didn't really know what they were trying to test, mocks fall out of date with reality (if they ever reflected it in the first place), other problems such as repetitive code and anything which tempts people to short circuit rather than keeping tests up to date, e:g tests that take far longer to write than the code they test. Shout out for pytest-cases as a library that can reduce repetition and save time. I've been in this game long enough to remember the days before massive automated test suites. Quality software did indeed get shipped in those days too. It took longer, with less regular releases. It took an army of skilled QA people with thorough test plans. You can do good or bad testing whether its today's TDD or yesterday's manual QA.

Thanks! Training a language model from scratch is data-intensive; Llama2 was developed using 2 trillion tokens, while our dataset is around 4 billion.

The appropriate size of the model is not straightforward to determine. In our experiments, a 7 billion parameter model achieved 21% executability compared to just 10% for a 1 billion parameter model. However, their re-compilability rates are quite similar.

To run a 1 billion parameter model, a minimum of 2GB GPU memory is necessary, which is feasible on most GPUs. A 7 billion parameter model needs 14GB, suitable for GPUs like the 3090/4090 series. For running a 33 billion parameter model, an A100 GPU (80G) would be the single card option, although technically a MacBook could work, but you won't really want to use it.

For my entire life I slept in one of those postures ("the lookout"). I had a bunch of problems (pain in the chest, pain in the back, some problems with my knees not loaded symmetrically, my feet getting "extended" for quite a long time causing problems with Achilles). I also had a problem with restlessness -- these positions cannot be maintained for long without moving, I would be changing my position very frequently.

Couple of years ago I have injured my ACL and had to learn to sleep on my back. Now I am much happier sleeper. Now I generally do not move at all during night (I wake up exactly as I have fallen asleep and my sleep tracker tracks way less movement). All of the pains gone.
It's kind of strange that there isn't more of a pushback from the US government against this sort of self-cannibalization of a company that is arguably a strategic national asset.

If it was e.g. a Chinese or Russian company that had merged with Boeing, kicked out the engineering management and started dismantling the company from within, I think it would have been viewed as an act of hostility, but when domestic MBAs do the same, well that's just another day in capitalism?

Ultimately, if Boeing is bled dry, then the entire civilian airliner market has been ceded to (European) Airbus.
I have also been doing this. Usually paying a premium for it to be honest. Mostly because of the delays or cancellations that are happening (or could) on Boeing airlines due to lack of new planes, and 'recalls'.

It's also nice to support European manufacturing but I wouldn't actually pay for that.

I am on a strict diet right now. The problem is people don't track calories enough.

If I just go by how I feel I will end up eating so much more than I think I am eating.

Then it is frustrating thinking your on a diet when you really haven't cut any calories so the scale isn't going down.

Bodybuilders have had this figured out for a long time. There is no bodybuilder ever that doesn't track their calories when getting ready for a bodybuilding show because otherwise your going to over eat.

Not tracking calories is just a stupid strategy. No one goes running without knowing how far or long they are running for. No one lifts weights without having any idea how much the weights weigh. For some reason people expect to be able to do this with food of all things when we have evolved to eat as much as we can.
I'm not arguing against higher abstraction, I'm not saying write assembly.

You can't just assert that it makes sense when answering why it makes sense. If you are right, then the owner is losing out on money by operating a car wash, which by the way is their moral and legal right. If you think you can provide more value with the same space – offer to buy it.
How is this pattern any different from "keep interrupts disabled all the time except when the program is ready to yield()"? I'm not really seeing the inherent difference w/ the well-known pitfalls of multi-threaded programming. The defining characteristics of signals is that, like interrupts and multi-threaded execution, they can pre-empt your program at any time. (Synchronous signals as you describe them are indeed different, they look more like a "recoverable exceptions" system.)

Looks neat, kind of those "awesome X" list. Maybe adding a wiki would be interesting (so uninitiated can learn what is what and where to start if they want to build/train their own AI).

Tangential question I am not sure where else to ask: Would it be possible to train AI at home on a book? I was thinking about how sometimes I start reading a book and then get distracted for a month or two. Summarizing chapters and characters up to a point in the book sounds like a good fit for GPT AI. I could possibly find and extract PDF or epub of the current book I am reading and I have RTX 4080 at home I am barely using.
I experience this a lot (even up to complete freezes, even of the touchpad feedback, leading to crashes) and am confident that it is at least related to swapping due to memory pressure / RAM usage.

Why they'd let the system become unstable rather than killing some apps that are too much goes beyond my understanding.

This is neither obvious nor accurate.

Apple's advertising business is estimated to be closing in on $10Bn yearly, while their browser pre-load deal with Google brings them in even more than that, and data-sharing agreements are assumed to be part of the deal.

The fallacy that Apple can be trusted with your data because it makes more money elsewhere is incredibly naive and unilateral.

Linux desktops definitely are usable but there are still rough edges.

e.g. in Gnome when I open a media file with VLC the focus remains on Files app even if the video opened fullscreen over the top. So when I press space to pause I instead open a second preview of the same file in the background.

Or I use the Gnome media player and it turns sub-tittles back on every time I use it, despite me previously turning them off.

Or the sleep system doesn't suspend to disk after an hour of RAM usage so that my battery is flat when I return latter.

Little stuff like that is an unnecessary pain, just for a lack of polish. I persevere with Linux because of all the little things it does better but it's a hard sell to friends and family.

As soon as you mentioned Comax which has no safety record at all as an alternate you undermined your credibility.
> keep interrupts disabled all the time except

It's not. So what?

> The defining characteristics of signals is that, like interrupts and multi-threaded execution

No, they can't. You control when they are masked and unmasked. Certain signals are delivered in response only to certain actions (e.g. floating point errors when enabled, or memory access failures). It's not the chaos you think.

This person loves maths and art, and, we are told, is amazingly good at maths.

> Voisin sometimes relaxes by painting both original works (shown behind her) and copies of famous portraits, like the Amedeo Modigliani at bottom left.

She has colour co-ordinated pictures, with a material backdrop. This is then - badly - co-ordinated with the couch and its colours and patterns.

I'm genuinely surprised that this person's art choices and arrangements are so bad. She is meant to be a top tier mathematician + into art - so when these combine in her own life, can this really be the result?

I'm not critiquing her interior decor for the sake of being mean - I just find the example of art + reasoning that we see in the pic to be so inconsistent with the person that is being portrayed. Can this be how a top mathematician arranges things they love?
Mainly because I installed it and ran it on a sample base infra - vpc and subnets - and I noted that it was still picking up Hashicorp providers, fine, but doesn’t this mean I have to run through a large codebase and start switching every provider out? Essentially I wasn’t sure what to do next. Should I stick with my standard terraform setup or figure out shifting to OpenTF and risk getting hit with something not available? Wasn’t something I could figure out in advance, if that makes sense? So was safest to stick with TF.
This is because IDF soldiers have been posting extremely disturbing content and it has spread very quickly. A lot of the evidence from the ICJ ruling came from soldiers’ own posts.

Israeli leadership has recently met with TikTok and ads have been put up looking for Hebrew-speaking moderators. A guess would be that it’s _not_ to censor pro-Palestinian activists as much as it is to regulate Israeli content that might “give a bad look”.
This is not the first time people here confused me with AI. People really give AI far too much credit. The common pattern, as gleamed by the responses, people are faster to assume AI authorship the more they find a passage difficult to either read or understand. Since AI is prone to hallucinations but otherwise lacks formal originality it would be most safe to always assume the opposite.

Id say intelligence is a measure of how well you can make use of what you have. An intelligent person can take some pretty basic principles a really long way, for example. Similarly, they can take a basic comprehension of a system and build on it rapidly to get predictions for that system that defy the level of experience they have. Anyone can gather experience, but not everyone can push that experience's capacity to predict beyond what it should enable.
No safety record is better than a negative one. Especially if they have passed all check by external state backed regulators.
Put the conversation history in a vector database and then allow the LLM to query it using function calling. Suddenly the LLM has access to its entire conversation history (either just with this user-or even cross-user, if you ignore the potential privacy issues in that). Now it has a long-term memory which exceeds the length of its context window.

It would be interesting to experiment with continual fine-tuning: given PROMPT+FUNCTION_CALL=>RESPONSE, fine-tune the LLM to produce RESPONSE directly given PROMPT without the FUNCTION_CALL. In theory, the knowledge provided by the function calls would gradually be absorbed into the LLM weights. Maybe problems like catastrophic forgetting would put a spanner in this idea, but maybe also there are solutions to those problems (whether already known or waiting to be discovered).
I don't quite understand what you're saying, but it should be possible to infer the length from the number of bytes received.

Assuming n is an integer:

* 5n bytes received = 4n bytes data
* 5n+1 bytes received is [invalid]
* 5n+2 bytes received = 4n+1 bytes data
* 5n+3 bytes received = 4n+2 bytes data
* 5n+4 bytes received = 4n+3 bytes data

This is like modified Base64, which doesn't need any padding.

Usually corporations tend to act in their own good. Usually, corporations are better and faster at reacting than a government.

And absolute shit at understanding that yes, you can extract some additional value in short term by reducing standards, but it will eventually catch up with you and the party will be gone.

Given uber developed software to block the regulator from regulating (see https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-03-19/the-uber-story/109129... and links therein), I'm not sure they can have said to have any moral ground in this.

It's worth noting that the regulator also blocked a majority of Taxi providers from providing a single app (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-12/accc-blocks-launch-of...), I think uber should also be able to be regulated.

The thing being disputed isn’t timing etc. it’s the concept of being “pushed into” a tax bracket. In the US at the federal tax level your income is taxed in buckets.

If the brackets are 10,000 @5%; 100,000 @10%, if you make 100,000 your first 10,000 is taxed at 5% and the next 90,000 is taxed at 10%.

Outside of long/short term gains, all things being equal, the timing is not especially important
