I'm really interested to watch this play out. Since I was a teen Japan went from taking over the USA. The watermark might have been when Japanese banks bought Rockefeller Plaza. They just spent a whole generation at zero interest.

This is really exciting to see the effects of the cost of borrowing. I see this as very different than what the US just went through. I want to see what happens to growth.

I have been thinking that the US managed to turn the COVID disruption into a soft landing.

That depends also on opportunity cost though. Buffett by his own admission just really enjoys the "game" (to him) of reading earnings reports and finding good companies to invest in. He sees no problem spending 40 hours per week of doing that, it's more like a hobby at this point.

For people with $10k or less total invested, unless they also just really enjoy reading financial reports, spending their 40 hours per week on some sort of work or education is likely to have a much higher expected value than $1k.

Microsoft is just a broken company. Their people really think they are making great stuff when in reality they're just coasting on their installed base. Nobody picks Microsoft because they're the best. They pick it because they're not bad enough to consider something else.

Implementing ms solutions is always a drag. They're always evangelizing so much and they have to because their stuff is not naturally appealing to users. But personally I really hate that fakeness.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frans_de_Waal

"His research into the innate capacity for empathy among primates has led De Waal to the conclusion that non-human great apes and humans are simply different types of apes, and that empathic and cooperative tendencies are continuous between these species. His belief is illustrated in the following quote from The Age of Empathy: "We start out postulating sharp boundaries, such as between humans and apes, or between apes and monkeys, but are in fact dealing with sand castles that lose much of their structure when the sea of knowledge washes over them. They turn into hills, leveled ever more, until we are back to where evolutionary theory always leads us: a gently sloping beach.""
That is such a great analogy. Thanks for sharing.

I'm not commenting to dispute your numbers, which I trust are correct.

I'm considering the possibility that the measures you've chosen don't reflect the impact of the economy on people's lives. As GP said "entire generation now has no prospects of buying a house, even renting is hard, etc.".

You've convinced me that the phrase "wealth inequality" is a ghost of the past, a lingering rally cry from 2011, when wealth inequality truly was historically high.

We need a new term for the current situation. The data shows that the wealth of the bottom 50% has recovered - but their lifestyles and happiness have not.

It seems they are trying to answer "WHAT do NN's learn?", and "How do NN's WORK?", as much as their title question of "How do NN's learn?".

Here's an excerpt from the article:

"The researchers found that a formula used in statistical analysis provides a streamlined mathematical description of how neural networks, such as GPT-2, a precursor to ChatGPT, learn relevant patterns in data, known as features. This formula also explains how neural networks use these relevant patterns to make predictions."

The trite answer to "HOW do NN's learn?" is obviously gradient descent - error minimization, with the features being learnt being those that best support error minimization by the higher layers, effectively learning some basis set of features that can be composed into more complex higher level patterns.

The more interesting question perhaps is WHAT (not HOW) do NN's learn, and there doesn't seem to be any single answer to that - it depends on the network architecture. What a CNN learns is not the same as what an LLM such GPT-2 (which they claim to address) learns.

What an LLM learns is tied to the question of how does a trained LLM actually work, and this is very much a research question - the field of mechanistic interpretability (induction head circuits, and so forth). I guess you could combine this with the question of HOW does an LLM learn if you are looking for a higher level transformer-specific answer, and not just the generic error minimization answer: how does a transformer learn those circuits?

Other types of NN may be better understood, but anyone claiming to fully know how an LLM works is deluding themselves. Companies like Anthropic don't themselves fully know, and in fact have mechanistic interpretability as a potential roadblock to further scaling since they have committed to scaling safely, and want to understand the inner workings of the model in order both to control it and provide guarantees that a larger model has not learnt to do anything dangerous.
Currently AI folks create bigger models and feed larger training data sets, because we still don't know the efficiency limits. IOW, currently we can't accelerate the learning beyond a certain point with less training data. This is esp. true on LLM/GenAI space.

On the other areas where NNs are used, what I can see is training models with less data is not only plausible, but very possible, esp. in image processing, probably an image carries more information than a single sentence.

I think AI falls on the spectrum with a slight bias to the latter group. Because if you can shrink a model 10% and lose a month, you'd rather have a 10% bigger model now, and reap the money^H^H^H^H^H fame.

isolated experiments and a rank-choice ordering of languages is not a realistic picture of the industry.

In robotics, everything is C++. There's plenty of python being used to train networks, but that's not because of performance, safety, or anything, it's mostly born out of the existence of key libraries being in Py. But those libs are just wrappers on C (cuda, essentially).

Essentially the whole of every robot is C and C++. Essentially the whole of every airplane is C, C++, and a scattering of memory safe languages in isolated corners. The ATC system, the rail system, most industrial processes are C or PLC, or maybe C / PLC generated by matlab/labview. Automobiles, basically everything with a microcontroller. It's all C.

Our scientific computing? fortran. Nodejs? A bunch of C++.

What's my point? It's that for any new project or extension of above projects, the existing language is a superior choice (as viewed by managers, business leaders, CTOs, or rushed grad students trying to get quick results, etc), simply because the legacy provides a quicker startup. This is the "reality" - we have had better options essentially forever, and I feel we are effectively stuck with C/C++ forever. It's just that we'll see less and less of it if the new communities are diligent about extending the existing ones. Otherwise, it will never make sense to start clean, not on a mass production level, or at least not this decade or likely next.

C++ is a bad choice, and it is the choice. it can be both a prevalent "obvious" choice, and also a bad one. The existence of a better language does not shift reality on its own. You need targeted investment for development of a replacement ecosystem built around that better option. Whether that is Rust, or safe C++, or C+borrow checking, or Dada, or the language of the minute. We as a community cannot keep screaming about how nice a new idea is without building out the ecosystem to make it the obvious idea.

Here’s me with a sample of CDs:
https://twitter.com/AndrewKemendo/status/1770053620144234763

Actually you skip within the song…to do this well you listen to about 20-30 seconds of each song focused on intro, bridge, outro. Most songs aren’t air worthy so you’ll know in 5 seconds it’s a skip

It was a few hours a day

This is the best advice. Interviewing is not like riding a bike. It’s not something you master and then pass all subsequent interviews.

We don't really have evidence that vitamin D supplementation has any effect on psoriasis. This large review and meta-analysis from 2023 by Formisano et al [1] is a very good paper on the subject.

It's true that studies regularly show that vitamin D deficiency correlates with psoriasis disease severity, at least when it comes to plaque psoriasis. But when patients are given vitamin D to normalize levels, their psoriasis tends not does not improve. (We have a tiny handful of studies that do show improvement in symptoms, but they are small and of poor quality.)

It may be that severe psoriasis simply causes vitamin D deficiency, e.g. by disrupting the skin's ability to synthesize vitamin D (which normally builds up and is released upon exposure to sunlight), rather than vitamin D deficiency causing psoriasis. There's at least one study that shows that people with psoriasis tend to avoid the sun more than other people.

Well, if you're coming from python/Javascript I'd reach for Go as a first reasonable step in your transformation into a wizard.

I think the complexities are inescapable and it is just a question of how we smear them around. Javascript is much easier to get started and you drown in frameworks, trivialities, nyan cats, fads.

If you are very pragmatic you'll learn to quickly make imperfect decisions and just get a bunch of stuff done, the resulting spaghetti is for some other bastard to deal with at a later date. Unfortunately that just might be future you.

With Go you'll spend a few weeks studying first and then the blessed happy well trodden paths will usually become clear and take you very far.

With Rust you'll spend months learning deep lore and getting used to the syntax only to end up sitting in somber Gandalf like contemplation paralyzed at the state of async and the lack of hand holding and courses and cults. Possibly forget what you originally set out to do, start writing compilers. It is a minefield of nerd snipes and requires a certain amount of maturity and independent thinking. Rustaceans don't wear fedoras.

This is fascinating. It underscores how information-dense displays can be. For example: think of tiny screens like watches, test strips, or sensor read outs. All of them have tiny screen real estate. Mobile computing, in a practical sense, is also limited by screen size. It's why text-processing heavy work like programming and writing isn't often done on smaller devices. But maybe there would be more room for such use-cases where fonts like this were used. As they would be able to show more text in the same way that people were used to with regular monitors.

Font-rendering limitations also play out in UIs, too. VS Code has a feature where the side-bar can become something like a map of the code document. It doesn't actually show the code though because there isn't the room. But could a font like this show more of the code? Letting you quickly navigate a large module. I'm sure there are more use-cases for this because displaying text is so fundamental to computing.
> From my perspective, it is just as likely that overinvesting in cybersecurity is problematic. Nobody is more secure for buying more products

Yes, but isn’t this because security cannot generally be packaged into a product? Just like how anti-virus programs was a bad solution for consumers, a lot of the same snake oil is packaged up with B2B stickers and bolted-on a disastrous core of insecure dev and ops practices?

I mean the companies with a good security track record that I know of develops it all in-house, and it permeates the culture of those companies, from the first design ideas through development, maintenance and ops.

>Buffet could lose 99% of his net worth, and still be one of the top 5,000 or so wealthiest people in history. He could then lose 99% of that wealth, and still be comfortably inside of the top 1% of wealth holders. He could invest that 1% of 1% of his money in a broad index, and comfortably live off the hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual returns.

This didn't seem true, but I think you're right.

Warren Buffet is worth about $90B. If he loses 99% of that, he has $900M, which is probably still top 5,000 overall. And then if he lost 99% of that, he'd be down to $9M, which he could invest conservatively for a 4% return and live off $360k/yr.
