Good for people watching, that one is. We went there for breakfast every single day when I was in Atlanta to retrieve my OMSCS degree (we were staying in the GT hotel in the same building, so it was super convenient). I'm easy to please, and my waistline is better because we don't have Waffle House in the PNW. Maybe I'd grow tired of it, but no guarantees.

There's been a slow march to requiring hardware-backed security. I believe all new devices from the last couple of years need a TEE or a dedicated security chip.

At least with Android there are too many OEMs and they screw up too often. Bad actors will specifically seek out these devices, even if they're not very technically skilled. The skilled bad actors will 0-day the devices with the weakest security. For political reasons, even if a batch of a million devices are compromised it's hard to quickly ban them because that means those phones can no longer watch Netflix etc.
Great idea!

I'm testing it on a 3-layer perceptron, so memory is less of an issue, but __slots__ seems to speed up the training time by 5%! Pushed the implementation to a branch: https://github.com/noway/yagrad/blob/slots/train.py

Unfortunately it extends the line count past 100 lines, so I'll keep it separate from `main`.

I have my email address on my website (which is in my bio) - don't hesitate to reach out. Cheers!
> We're getting to the point where browsers are worthy of the decades old criticism Emacs has received. They have eventually become an OS with many fine features - simply lacking a good web browser.

lol i've been saying this for years to folks (i hate to say it but probably upwards of 10 years now sounds about right)
Sometimes this is to scope logins to single tabs for security reasons (I think that's why Userify does it that way). It's annoying but for infrequently used apps, no worse than getting logged out every three minutes.
I meant for developers or business owners who are developing a web application. If there is any way for them to enable extra security for their application.
We can actually do a very good job at detecting damage to very tiny structures in the brain. The only problem is the brain needs to be removed from the patient and then sliced very thinly before it can be imaged.
This is a cop out argument in my opinion because you can never prove a negative. This is just more FUD. You can just always make this argument even if all evidence points to the contrary. "Well you just haven't found the right evidence yet." Right....

Chinese and western scientists identify 'red lines' on AI risks
yes this is one of those things that is scaring people but if you pay $500 some other guy can magically do it for you. The fact is that it is not that hard of a job and the dangers can easily be mitigated if you have some basic common sense and knowledge. Unfortunetly common sense is not that common and many people have been hurt doing this job. I myself would not hesitate to do this job like you say lots of information now days on how to do it this site is 22 years old in this post so now days you can see exactly what to do in many videos way before even attempting the job and that alone can take away most of the risk since you get hand held the entire process. I have to say I am a little disappointed in the HN crowd at how shy they are to do this job. All the handy men that do this job now are just humans like you and me and they all had to learn from scratch at some point. Again this is not that hard or dangerous but like the article says it has by shrouded in stories of danger and the trades people would not share their knowledge but told everyone how dangerous it would be so pay them money.
It’s a compliance checkbox for the most part I think. They can stay on top of new legislation by claiming they are providing tools to deal with misinformation, whereas it’d be easier to say that they are encouraging the proliferation of misinformation by not doing anything about it. It certainly shifts the legal question in the way you described it would seem.

Deeplearning.ai short course: Efficiently Serving LLMs
Check out the book “Twilight in the Desert” by Matt Simmons, a now deceased energy trader. He makes the case that the oil is running out in SA as evidenced by their lead in patents for ever more challenging methods of extracting oil (presumably unnecessary if their oil was so readily available). Also, the nature of OPEC is that quotas are set on reported reserves which have no third party validation. And lastly, ever since the western countries handed back oil production to SA, they have reliably been finding more and more oil every year (pumping up those reported reserves) than the western countries were ever able to find (and presumably they were quite motivated).

Don't worry Google has become incompetent - it is in the "Fading AOL" portion of its life cycle. Do you remember how incontinent AOL became in the final minutes before it became completely irrelevant? Sure it's taking longer with Google. But it's not a process that they can reverse.

That means the system will be really really awful. So challengers can arise - maybe a challenger that YOU build, and open source!
Your faith in dealerships is unreasonably high. Based on my experiences maintaining a fleet of trucks for my company in addition to my personal vehicles, there are most certainly dealerships / mechanics that are incompetent and unable to fix certain problems within a reasonable amount of time. Their mechanics are not magicians, and they vary in skill level significantly. Sometimes a quick 5 minutes spent on the internet will find a solution for a problem that the dealer's mechanics are clueless about, as was the case with the anti-theft lockout on the Alero I had. The stand-pipe issue on one of the older diesel trucks took the mechanic $3k worth of time to diagnose and fix, but once we knew about it, we found out that the issue was quite common for engines of that vintage (and we later found out that the other stand pipe in the engine had already been replaced by another mechanic prior to our purchase of that truck).

Other times a mechanic shows a degree of cleverness that makes them well worth compensating them for the time, like using an infrared camera app on their phone to find a wiring harness short in a minute rather than spending hours crawling around the chassis.
How many tokens have you trained on?
Except that that's not what will happen.

The vast majority of people will just use a different AI tool to generate the lyrics, use Suno to make the music, and then use midjourney to generate the album art. And then they'll throw a tasteless post up on Instagram about how they "made a song".
I find it very telling where people stand on this issue by whether they call it "censorship" or "moderation". You may not think there's much of a difference but it's really an "us vs them" mentality in disguise - are they censoring our legitimate speech, or are they moderating their misinformation?

It’s amazing and honestly kind of sad how risk averse some people are. The reason I don’t change my oil anymore is it just isn’t worth the time and hassle. The “unsafety” of such a task doesn’t even register on my things to be worried about: at all. Jack it up, remember to put on gloves(!!!!) put the fucker on stands and go.

The actual scary thing is I’m pretty sure way back when I was a kid we’d just dump the oil down the storm drain. I hate to think what that was doing to the environment around us.
They must have a fast revolving door. I have know so many people who worked there in the last few years but seem to have moved in.

Probably depends on the team and the worst ones have a lot of churn.
Lack of community, the break up of the nuclear family (i.e. more single parents=less child supervision), loneliness, mental illness and drug induced mental illness, inadequate access to mental and/or health care, and lack of any unified/mass culture that would set standards for behavior. Go checkout other countries that have a few of those things and you really will not find the rates of gun violence we have. Also, most of the gun crime seems to be black on black crimes, but it's taboo to even bring up racial differences without someone accusing you of being some Charles Murray-esque racist (even if you're just citing publicly available data).
The reference video (https://youtu.be/Zqw4-1LcfWg) says they use a NeRF / structure from motion and then create a mesh with marching cubes from the generated radiance field. This is how most soa text-to-object generators work now as well
I'm not saying to take the result as-is, but you could ask the AI for suggestions. A lot of authors tend to get hung up on the same words over and over which becomes tedious as a reader.

It's really not so different from a synonym dictionary. Just a lot easier and with better context.

Also, many writers don't enjoy it as such. Sometimes it's just production. Think of journalists asked at the last moment to cut their page-long piece to 800 characters. Instead of spending 20 minutes cursing the editor and their mother and then settling into the work they can now whip it into the LLM and check it. Or marketeers having to rewrite a bunch of corporate drivel for a different target audience.

s people object to zoning laws for exactly the same reason. Have Jacobs won renown for pointing out exactly how zoning laws undermined the emergent nature of cities, and destroyed value for their residents. Whatever label you call it by, the critique is the same: central planning is far worse than organic emergence.
But you don't have to ban them for this use case? You just need something opportunistic, not ironclad. An entity like Google could publish those devices' certificates as "we can't verify the integrity of these devices' cameras", and let the public deal with that information (or not) as they wish. Customers who care about proving integrity (e.g., the media) will seek the verifiable devices. Those who don't, won't. I can't tell if I'm missing something here, but this seems much more straightforward than the software attestation problem Android has been dealing with so far.
I'm not currently aware of any integration, but since it is based on OpenCASCADE, there may be certain shapes that "just work" with IFC. This is similar to how FreeCAD uses IfcOpenShell to directly serialise some FreeCAD shapes into IFC geometry.
> That is not accurate. If I have a single-threaded program sitting around a ppoll(2) loop and a signal can arrive only inside my main loop ppoll(), then I know a priori that my signal handler can't be interrupting non-reentrant code and so I can call whatever I want inside it.

If you have a single-threaded program sitting in ppoll, you cannot ever receive a SIGSEGV during said ppoll unless you passed it bugus fds, timeout or sigmask pointers. A sleeping process cannot segfault.

If you register a SIGSEGV handler, you have zero guarantees that it will only fire at a particular time in your code as it is delivered on any pagefault from any code accidentally generating it. This is why the async-signal-safe rules apply.

If you try handling such fault, what needs to be reentrant is the full call stack that lead to the fault, and every call made from the handler. If, for example, the fault is generated from an event loop handler (in case of a single-threaded example, most things run off event loop handlers), the signal handler must in turn not touch the event loop (no adding/removing/adjusting events, no dispatch) unless the event loop is fully reentrant.
Yes and this explains everything. Not sure of the reason for your last sentence
I’m going off old memory here, but I happened to have his C++ book in late 90s. I read that before I learn C. In intro he claimed strongly no need to learn C. Just learn C++. I was young and just followed his wisdom. Obviously there’s zero replacement for learning C before C++. I can at best say I lost a lot of time confused about basic stuff. Until I gave up, ignored him and learnt C like I should have. I was in school, I did not expect to come across faith based software development. That’s a different course.
>At least, this is my experience in the large FAANG type companies. We already have so much code. Just figuring out what that code does and what else to do with it constitutes the majority of the work.

That sounds horrible. I've always sought out smaller companies that need stuff built. It certainly doesn't pay as much as SV companies but it's pretty stimulating. Sometimes being a big fish in a small pond is pretty nice.

IMO, maintaining someone else's code is probably the worst type of programming job there is, especially if it's bad /disjointed code. A lot of people can make a good living doing it though. It would be nice if AI could alleviate the pain of learning and figuring out a gnarly codebase.
The labels collected by google will certainly be used to train classifiers to detect AI created content so I think that’s a legit concern.

I'm not the OP, but I'm pretty sure there's a simple, uncontroversial answer here. They were an excellent idea at the time, allowing much more pipelining with the microarchitecture design techniques in use back then. In the time since, the complexity of the instruction set has stopped being such a big deal.
This would be very much appreciated. The best way to do this is to post on https://community.osarch.org/ with as much details as possible on a specification. You will also find other electrical engineers there who can provide feedback. It may also "not be the right time" (i.e. all the devs are busy tackling other issues) but sooner or later someone will look at it and find it a valuable resource to implement.
It's important to remember that SSE won't automatically reconnect for quite a few HTTP status codes (i.e., upstream proxy outages like 50x error codes)

My old band gigged internationally and occasionally played venues larger than 3'000 people, which an article on HN a while ago suggested would have put us in the top few percentile had we been in New York City.

Compared to having a Billboard 100 hit, that's only a "somewhere sort of" mediocrity, but as a software geek by vocation, I am very satisfied with having experienced that as an avocation.
Now your description of "good prompts" to reuse has created an abomination in my mind. I blame you.

The abomination: prompts being reused by way of yaml templating, a Helm chart of sorts but for LLM prompts. The delicious combination of yaml programming and prompt engineering. I hope it never exists.

First, decide whether you want to specialize, or to be more of a generalist.

Read "Refuse to Choose" by Barbara Sher.

I am/was a generalist, bouncing from one field of interest to another, so it was electronics, optics, systems, admin and IT, even part of a sales team. Not for everyone. This is called "serial master" in the book.

There are methodologies to help decide. Here is a classical one:

https://careerservices.fas.harvard.edu/blog/2022/08/28/your-...

But there's no methodology for knowing what field is going to be hot or (importantly) dead in a few years. Things change rapidly. This affects specialists more than generalists.

Depending on how focused your interests are, that focus can propel you through tough spells. I learned Unix systems and utilities when not so many did, and that made me really productive. And over time, opened more doors. Others scoffed but I felt the power, and liked it.

A business/management career will take a lot more leadership skills on top of the math and computing basics.

So will techies as they move "up" the ladder. Understanding some psychology, and especially, persuasion will increase effectiveness over efficiency, so to speak.

Good luck.

Also I remember, we in Kyiv have interest place - in zone around broadcast tower, signals once was so strong, people made simple spirals with light bulb and wire, around cup, and drink "tea with flame". To be honest, when lot of such devices used close enough to radio station, it could significantly drain power from radio station, so apparently this was prohibited, but I still don't think it is enough to prohibit listening in whole country.

I can't see human-like robots being the way forward. They will always be expensive, bulky, and creepy. No one will want one in their homes. You can't have them unattended in public (see what happened to all those kick scooters).

Maybe in factories? However, the main reason to have a humanoid robot is to have it fit in places designed for humans. Factories can be designed around robots, so the human-shaped advantage isn't there. The robots we currently see in factories are only arms with tools, I don't see that changing much.
Does anyone have a single shred of evidence that Google is doing any kind of fingerprinting?

It's the web. You can see what's happening, follow the code as it runs. Has anyone found a single shred of evidence that big bad hated evil Google is doing any of these casually cast about nasty vicious accusations?

Yes Google runs ads, and makes most of its money that way. But it needs to play a clean game & keep the web stable & trustable if that revenue stream is to survive. These conjectures that earning another 10% by setting fire to your house don't make sense. They never have. But it's what our underdog bias makes us want to believe.
