You're assuming a relatively high degree of competency and available time on the part of maintainers and it sounds like a reasonably short backlog. That's great. For overworked, understaffed teams like a large backlog of reviews it generally doesn't work like that. And for those teams the work done on fixing the formatting issues across their project pays off in velocity because submitters and reviewers stop needing to care about the issue entirely.

This is why when people think about submitting a change and they see their editor auto-formatting changed half the lines in the file with whitespace fixes, they get a bad feeling about how submitting anything to the project is going to go.
Fair enough. But then the question is: How did this happen in the first place? If the Pentagon is playing out scenerio after scenerio after scenerio, how did we allow ourselves to be so embarrassingly venerable?

And now the taxpayer is on the hook for $8.5B and growing?

There's a certain smell to all this.

Polio occurs naturally only in humans. It is highly infectious, and is spread from person to person either through fecal–oral transmission[1][6] (e.g. poor hygiene, or by ingestion of food or water contaminated by human feces), or via the oral–oral route.

> congested cities with such intense light and noise pollution

I'm not sure how you mean that. Obviously you know that many people love cities with lots of tall buildings, NYC being the obvious US example. Clearly you don't like them, but are you saying the busy-ness is inherently bad? If you don't like it, can you leave? Usually, that's an expensive place to live.

> I'm not sure if this was your intent, but it sounds like you're describing the world as it actually works.

This was in fact my intent.

I would just like to highlight there are alternative ways besides grants to encourage Intel to open US based manufacturing. Ultimately it's the tax payer that is funding this grant, so it's important they feel like they are getting a good deal. I think it's also telling that Intel didn't invest the $8.5B themselves when they clearly had the cash just a few years ago.
> The article takes a surprised tone that doctors haven’t updated their practices in line with the latest studies

This isn't "new research" or the "latest study", this is now established scientific consensus.

> Doctors don’t get their orders direct from science, they follow the practices of their peers and network. New knowledge percolates slowly and conservatively through that network.

This is indeed part of the problem.

Doctors should get knowledge of new practices from medical school or CME, not haphazardly through gossip. As noted in the article, medical scools don't teach very much about concussions and clearly our new understanding of concussion treatments are not being dispersed with sufficient speed by CME.

We need to hold our medical system to higher standards, not give them a pass because the broken parts have been broken for a while.

> Communities don’t just happen, they are intentionally constructed.

I, personally, agree with your informative pseudo-rebuttal (it's polite and impartial so not really anti-them).

However, the philosophical difference is that

> they are intentionally constructed

is precisely the point, they might say.

I've come to realize, after spending time with them and reading "righteous mind", that the difference is so fundamental it requires a lot more power to cross divides than I have. I simply have to recognize the right and good intent in what they do, rather than denigrate it as "not enough" or "in the slightly wrong direction even if enough".

I imagine a world in which they decline to pay, and therefore to receive, benefits from wealth redistribution, and urbanites who are highly paid like ourselves subsidize other urbanites who are not. I also realize this world would have "rural" covens of uber rich, and so it will not be more just.

While I agree with you I would say that supply chain is upstream of chip-production.

>Flakiness is from personal experience automating UI tests specifically and having them break when a new nondeterministic popup modal is added or another engineer breaks an identifier/locator strategy

A modal popping up isn't a flake though, it's often when a button is on screen but the test runner can't seem to find it due to run-loop issues or emulator/simulator issues. If a modal pops up on the screen in a test, how does CamelQA resolve this and how would it know if it's an actual regression or not? If a modal pops up on a screen at the wrong time that _could_ be a real regression, versus a developer forgetting to configure some local state.

They have an outsized impact on what you even believe to be possible, never mind what you think is normal.

Yep, that's my point. Neither btrfs nor bcachefs have a write-hole-less parity raid profile implementation yet, and both are working towards one. We don't know if one will be finished and battle tested significantly before the other, or if one will prove to be more performant or reliable. Just have to wait and see.

Well, personally, SDXL just blows 1.5 out of the water for me. I haven't had a reason to even touch 1.5 in months.

But note that SDXL is really awful in automatic1111 or vanilla HF diffusers for me. You have to use something with proper augmentations (like ComfyUI or Fooocus(which runs on ComfyUI)).

The results did not surprise me. The fact that everyone is in agreement that "cat$" matches "cat" and not "cat\n" if multiline is off did not surprise me. \n is implicitly a multiline-contextual character to me. In other words, if you didn't have any \n, you'd just have an array of lines (without linefeeds), same as if you were reading lines from a file one at a time or splitting a binary on \n.

The other results that differ across engines seem to be because people either don't understand regex or because the POSIX description of how to deal with such an input and config was ill-defined.

Two issues to consider:

- GPS positioning is more accurate if the satellites it sees come from a variety of angles (GDOP), so the satellites near the horizon are valuable.

- Aircraft pitch and roll, so a fixed antenna like this would lose precision as it turns to make an approach - just about the worst possible time.

It's difficult to make an antenna with a sharp cutoff to limit the ground vs. above-ground. So, most anti-jammers will use beamforming to cancel out interference in one or more specific directions. So, the null in the antenna moves to follow the interference.

GDOP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_of_precision_(navigat...

That depends on supply and demand, not simply demand. More people attract, open and staff more shops, etc. It's easier to find a restaurant in a major city than a quiet rural town.

i don't see why a company has to choose between "10-100x returns" and writing 50 page product specs. Why not neither of the 2? I don't see some innate correlation there

Also, I don't care if the company wants 2x returns or 100x. I enjoy product teams, engineers with ownership and skin in the game, customer collaboration, modern tech. Why couldn't I get all of that in an agtech company?

The more i've worked on things in the "real world" (like agriculture), the less i've seen those things, but i don't see why it has to be that way. I'd like to find companies working more like tech companies, but on "real-world" stuff (ag, health, energy), as opposed to ecommerce, dev tools, social media, digital entertainment, etc, ie faang and co.

Implementing LLM in Operations
I am a technical (web/mobile) and operational founder exploring implementing AI in specific work areas and tasks in a in home health agency.

I am dipping my toes into the ecosystem and would love to hear the experience of other people or teams that have implemented something in testing or production.

We are looking for two primary use cases: 1. An internal knowledge assistant for clinical and operational teams (not doctors or diagnostic in nature, mostly our own policies and internal data) where accurate and trustworthy info is necessary, 2. A customer facing chat bot capable of taking pressure off our existing team (burnout and churn of that team is a common occurrence).

I am looking for info on best practices, possible foot guns, maybe even resources that would be essential.

Illegal is a status more than it is a concept. Immigrating illegally is not the central definition of immigration, any more than shoplifting is the central definition of customer.

America is much more welcoming of immigration, by which I mean legal immigration, than Japan or China. This is not in dispute.

It is also, in practice, quite a bit more slack about illegal immigration than either of those countries. Although I hope that changes.

I think the general perception is that they're playing catch-up rather than meaningfully pushing the limits themselves. Yeah, they moved into the GPU market, but the cutting-edge in GPUs is by NVIDIA. As is the cutting-edge in AI chips. The cutting edge in fabrication is by TSMC. The cutting edge in mobile by Apple.

Intel's bread and butter has always been x86, but not only is it an ISA that's proving non-ideal for a couple new applications (mobile is ARM, AI is in the GPU or NPUs, etc), AMD is really putting up a good fight in that market too, and the crown has been traded a copule times in the past few years.

I mean, this is how it is for any domain that is sufficiently deep. It's not like we don't have similar examples in computer science - when talking with laypeople, we provide generalizations and abstractions. There are still unsolved questions, like P=NP - but the layperson out there is unlikely to think that programming is "unsolved."

This isn't an indictment of physics and physicists, it's just an example of how advanced domain knowledge is simplified for easier consumption of non-experts across basically every field deep enough to have these sorts of complex topics.
They fixed this. It's now a warning.
A few people/companies I've worked with avoid using the last few days of the month for "monthly" things.

For example, "every month on the 15th", "every month on the 1st", etc. It makes it easier to figure out compared to "every 30 days" or "every month on the 30th, unless there are less than 30 days in the month"
Congrats to the launch!

Managing tech debt is and will be an important issue in the world of AI software. I'm glad there's a company solving this. Additionally, this is something the current generation of LLMs are already helpful at solving. GritQL is very unique way of approaching this problem.

In all seriousness, without strong data privacy regulations (ie: GDPR), we will continue to see this sort of stuff, as the potential monetary rewards for using this sort of data far outweigh the potential liability. Cost of doing business type stuff, rather than an existential risk for abusing public trust.

My opinion is that data should be treated like a fissile element - very dangerous to hold and store, but extremely powerful when properly employed. However, it's only dangerous if the liability of storing it is significant and real, as of today, it's not (in the US).
I think it's only marginally useful for programming to be part of a broad education. You need fairly sophisticated programming (and non-programming, like git, tooling, etc) skills to do most things worth doing and the barrier is only getting higher.

Our society runs on code sure, but it also runs on alloys and we don't expect a well-educated person to know industrial metallurgy either you know? It certainly makes sense to teach some models of computation, computers aren't magic and shouldn't be thought of that way. But it's fine to treat programming as a highly specialized technical domain like actuary or crop science or eye surgery or welding or whatever. Plenty of important useful concrete skills are not taught except to people expecting to use them professionally.

Anecdotally though I know a lot more creative and humanities people who can code than I do programmers who can dance or write a poem. The self-identity of "computer people" has long been as an aggrieved, besieged outgroup. To whatever extent we are alien I think we chose that for ourselves. We can change it but we shouldn't start by blaming anyone else for it.

Interesting - as I'm in the middle of one of the red blobs on the map and just used my phone with google maps to drive around. It worked fine. All the local services that rely on positioning via phones seemed to work fine as well.

I wonder how the jamming works - is it just for higher altitudes or maybe it only affects GPS and my phone also uses GLONASS or something?
One area that's getting close to hitting the mainstream is AI agents that control web browsers or desktop apps. Basically, you tell your AI what you want to do, and it does the computer work for you, showing the results the way you like. You won't have to dig through tons of useless apps anymore. It'll search, sort, and create feeds for you. This is what scares advertisers the most - when we start saying, "Just talk to my AI." God knows I'd love an AI that can fill tax forms for me.

Operating on top of UI it is compatible with all devices, kind of like an android robot would fit well with all human spaces and tools. There is plenty of screen capture with narration to learn from. You can generate more training data by essentially giving free reign over a VM to an AI agent. Ask it to do office work. We can also collect this kind of data very easily.
Bitcoin behaved like bitcoin. Film at 11.
Yeah. Every time Emad has talked about their business model changes I've always thought "...that's it?"

I personally think they're missing some low hanging fruit, though I suppose it might be in the name of "safety." I believe Stability (maybe Clipdrop?) at least did have some sort of paid Lora or other training, but I tried it and it was awful. Considering they made the models surely they would have the absolute best insight into full fine tuning it and could roll out a service to do so.

I think they talked about doing it B2B at a presumably much higher cost, but a consumer facing, easy to use way of doing it would at least pull in some money. Of course, the second someone uses that to train child porn or whatever they'll be in hot water.

This resulted in more crime but less reported crime for burglary.

I have another personal solution [0]. It's a DNS server that also gets a wildcard certificate and make it available with a secret. This is definitely in the convenience over security relm, but it resolve any pattern prefix-123-123-123-123-suffix.example.com to the enclosed ip (e.g. 123.123.123.123). It will resolve to 127.0.0.1 or any other ip happily. Now you just need to use the associated cert and enjoy https. Works great from with k8s ingress, caddy, node.. You don't have to fiddle with your trusted store and it works for everybody. I took inspiration from https://nip.io/ for the dns part.
