Mixtral works very well with json output in my personal experience. Gpt family are excellent of course, and i would bet Claude and Gemini are pretty good. Mixtral however is the smallest of the models and the most efficient.

Especially running on Groq's infrastructure it's blazing fast. Some examples i ran on Groq's API, the query was completed in 70ms. Groq has released API libraries for Python and Javascript, i wrote a simple Rust example here, of how to use the API [1].

Groq's API documents how long it takes to generate the tokens for each request. 70ms for a page of document, are well over 100 times faster than GPT, and the fastest of every other capable model. Accounting for internet's latency and some queue that might exist, then the user receives the request in a second, but how fast would this model run locally? Fast enough to generate natural language tokens, generate a synthetic voice, listen again and decode the next request the user might talk to it, all in real time.

With a technology like that, why not talk to internet services with just APIs and no web interface at all? Just functions exposed on the internet, take json as an input, validate it, and send the json back to the user? Or every other interface and button around. Why pressing buttons for every electric appliance, and not just talk to the machine using a json schema? Why should users on an internet forum, every time a comment is added, have to press the add comment button, instead of just talking and saying "post it"? Pretty annoying actually.

Commenters didn't look at the chart to understand your question.

It's just a mistake in the chart.

"No" should point somewhere else to continue classifying. Also "someone" is ambiguous -- it could mean "someone nearby" (not meteorite) or "someone far away" (possibly meteorite).

> And third, I want to repeat what I said in my last article: Climate activism is not a waste of time.

I'm getting mixed signals here.

They seem to be tottering on the edge of the new climate denial themselves.

Yes nobody "serious" just flat out denies climate change anymore but one of the layers of defense is exactly this article. Governments are only pretending. It's all hopeless, etc.

You might think you're being cool and edgy but if you're aware that what you say needs a disclaimer about not giving up on climate activism, maybe deep down you know you're effectively a tool of the fossil fuel complex?

edit to add:

> First of all all, our civilization is completely dependent on fossil fuels. If we stopped using them all of a sudden, people would riot and civilization would collapse, anyway. We need fossil fuels for supply chains, for growing food, and for about 90% of industrially manufactured products

"Need" is doing a lot of work here. We use them because our society doesn't price in the externalities. It's like saying we "need" to dump paint and dye in a river.

Also, no one is talking about stopping cold turkey, but if you don't believe there is an alternative then I guess that's your only option.

This reinforces my view that this is just someone, probably well meaning, that has absorbed too much fossil fuel propaganda at face value, and so sees no future without fossil fuels.
This is fascinating, do you have any more details or things that I could look at to explore this further?

Even an actual example would be helpful!
I don't know, if you take a look at the Reddit discussion here you'll find a lot of people who look down on Reddit users. The very same people probably Google "search term reddit" to get anything useful, but think of redditors as peasants. They don't appreciate them. The founders seem like they are part of this self-perceived "landed gentry" and may very well do something stupid with AI.
The best UX at the moment is to do role play with chatGPT's voice interaction.
My son (5y) loves to play "holiday". So I tell GPT to pretend to be a hotel receptionist. And he will then have a conversation about rooms, events, costs, etc. with the bot.
Yes. I merely meant that I believe blowing those things out of proportion on purpose isn't helping anybody. The reality of vulns like this is that they don't affect the majority of normal people. Everybody wants to be the next cloudbleed.
I tried Vs code a ton of times. It is reasonably good, but I am SO used to Emacs that it is almost impossible to move from there for me.

Vs code is better at debugging and maybe slightly better at remote connections, that yes. But for the rest of things I am way more productive with Emacs than anything else.
The prompt does not matter as much as the workflow which is describe above. 1) Extract one attribute at a time. 2) Don't ask for json during extraction, but on binary small attributes it might not matter as much.. 3) Combine the data later.

There are differences that can be marked on how different models perform against the same raw prompt but generally the workflow is what matters more. The raw text prompt will be dependent on what model you are using as there are those differences but I don't think its a level of "prompt engineering" like we had a year ago.
I wonder it’s because of the no-responsibility effect, people try to not be responsible for some systems where there is risk but little reward/fame to be had. Don’t know if it has a name.
Some small airports made sense at the time they were built, but no more (either because planes are bigger now or because construction around the airport was not adequately restricted in ensuing decades. Congonhas in Sao Paulo is an example of this, where it can only handle smaller domestic flights now because of the way the city has grown around it.

AGI is already here, what you don't have enough of yet is ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence), and a confirmed self-conscious AI.

Almost every model is already an AGI engine somehow, some even can be tuned using its weight for different tasks than they were originally trained to perform.

Many models right now could provide most of the requirements for full autonomy, not that it would be a good idea to provide them autonomy. But if you feel like "hey, let's let this thing plan ahead, loop, plan again" (and you go an assemble these components ad-hoc to the prompt UI), you'll have something more or less capable of let's say, 40-60% of autonomic behavior.
Yep that is exactly what I was saying. People live in a illusion that the current internet is somehow decentralized and content cannot be blocked.

The one way signaling of the cell to alter tue production of chemicals kinda reminds me of thermostat adaptive weighted load balancing. Signals from nodes say that it can take more or should take less load, hot nodes shed automatically to cold nodes. And since it is weighted, if all nodes report hot, no load is shedded until full saturation of the cluster.

Kinda felt similar to the cell comms. I wonder what interesting distributed coordination ideas we could learn in distributed systems computing from cellular biology.
Maybe, but I doubt it, and who will prosecute them? I doubt EU will keep good track of their entire portfolio and their push for dominance, I could be wrong of course.

Isn’t chromium still bloated with tracking? Last time I read about it, it was far from a “clean Chrome” at least, now if it was truly open sourced and not mainly controlled by Google I would be much more hopeful.

As someone who’s heavily invested in web I don’t see it being a competition with apps at all, different sports altogether, but sure, supporting notifications are nice, allowing websites to scan networks and Bluetooth, not so much.

It’s nice that they’ve improved the noise issue, but there are a bunch of other environmental problems with airport construction and aviation generally which have not been solved and there doesn’t seem much interest in solving.

It’s probably for the best it’s hard to build airports whilst that remains the case.

Not only that many of the Carbon devs are former clang contributors, and one reason that clang is now on third place regarding ISO support, is that other devs had to step into what was previously contributed by Apple (now busy with Swift) and Google (busy with Carbon/Rust).

> As air travel greatly expanded in the 1960s and 70s, there were “no more virulent domestic conflicts… in the advanced industrial world than those over airport construction.”

I can't keep reading this article seriously. Civil rights movements are the obvious domestic conflict at the time, but even in transportation this is wrong. There were huge conflicts in "highway revolts" [1] or conflicts over suburbanization, urban renewal, and how much of the city to turn over to cars. The kind of thing Robert Moses started but governments around the developed world were doing in these decades. Governments siezed entire neighborhoods deemed to be "slums" to build a highway so suburban commuters could have an easier commute downtown.

What makes you think it’s a matter of antennas? Unless you mean directional antennas, which are quite inconvenient in a smartphone, existing ones do just fine as evidenced by existing and upcoming mobile satellite services.

If the first manufacturer to offer decent cars did that and captured the market, it's quite possible that many would put up with it, just as they put up with iphones today.

It is not that the borrow checker is zero value.

But the borrow checker enters the game also depending on your code style. And when it does it gets quite viral with annotations and the like.

That is why I like more a model like the one found in Hylo language. It sidesteps the rigidity of the borrow checker and it can do very well.

Also, the code style I try to keep in C++ is quite "value-oriented" to avoid the typical lifetime pitfalls.

Nowadays I try to use STL with debug mode but not escape iterators. I am actually considering using a library like Flux because I think that, as fast as the iterator model is, it is basically playing with fire. Flux seems to be very competent performance-wise and safer, besides compatible with ranges.

I am quite happy with C++ at the moment. That does not mean I won't use Rust in the future. Who knows.

I hope more work towards safety will be fone in C++. I would not want a borrow checker, but avoiding as many pitfalls as possible is a good thing. I always use compilers with the maximum warning level and warnings as errors. It is actually a good thing to do.

That is a HTML generator library.

And as I've said, for HTML5 compliance you need to also parse JavaScript, see second sentence here https://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-LC/parsing.html#overview-of-th...

A good first smoke-test for HTML5 supporting parsers is the following html fragment

<input disabled>

XML-like parsers (masquerading as having "HTML5 support") will fail if tags aren't closed or self-closing, and if there are attributes without an explicit value.
Yes there is an `—-override` option you can use to specify the language in which a file should be parsed.

Going from 120-110 down to 100-90 isnt really a significant decline, it went from unbearably torturous to really annoying. Airports nowadays still create significant noise pollution in their surroundings.

Sorry to report this is not true for my grandparents, father, mother, brother and sister and in fact my entire extended family. iOS is far easier to use by a thousand miles. Just some anecdata.
And why the hell you need it for? Plain ASCII is best. Different people use different fonts to read stuff because of reasons. Enforcing that is actually rude.
When building https://randomairport.onrender.com/ I noticed that US and Euro airports always look very different

Somehow US airports always seem to be surrounded by densely populated residential areas, even in the direction of the runways, while Euro airports don’t seem to have this problem. And secondly Us airports always seem to take huge plots of land compared to Euro airports.

My assumption is that Us cities are just bigger, both in population and in the amount of surface they claim (lower population density)

> Today, these companies expect me to buy a new device every 2-3 years

The Switch has been Nintendo's only game hardware since 2017

Say whatever else you will, the "every 2-3 years" argument does not hold water when complaining about Nintendo

Yes the Wii-U was very short lived, but it was partially because it was a massive flop no one was buying anyways

> The 1 or maybe 1.5 exclusive they have has zero worth these days.

Again, this holds no water for Nintendo. The Switch had more than that in exclusives on day one, games that are still exclusive now. I mean really the list is pretty long: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Nintendo_Switch-only_...

Whether or not those are all games you care about or want to play is a wholly separate issue

I'm not trying to fanboy for Nintendo here. I think their litigation tactics are massively awful, but it really seems like you're coming at Nintendo with complaints about Sony and Microsoft. At least make arguments about the stuff they actually are doing badly
To be honest, I never got why the message interop was such a big deal. Do people still use text messages in 2024 as opposed to a third party app like Signal, Discord, Whatsapp, Telegram, etc?

I just find it a bit questionable that Apple is being forced open this much. If you want a super app, why don't you just use the browser? Also, is cloud streaming apps such a big deal?

And re smartwatches, isn't it somehow expected that apps made by the same company will always have an edge? You can see this in the Windows+Microsoft Auth combo where Microsoft apps can do stuff that non-Microsoft apps can't just because it is a Microsoft app.

Maybe iPhones are much more popular in the US, but I feel Apple doesn't have such a strong hold of the mobile market in Europe.

My worry is that Apple is be forced open and will have to allow everyone to access the same APIs with all the security implications of it. Surely, if people don't like the way iPhones work they can move to Android or Tizen. I personally wish people moved away from iPhones AND Androids so we could have the thriving and healthy competition we had at the beginning of the smartphone revolution with Android, iOs, Symbian and similar. Support a market full of mobile OSes competitors and not a duopoly with open APIs.

While it's true that the feed forward is one word at a time, the self-attention is not, which is the key difference transformers brought to the table.

It's kind of kind saying "computers can add." Yes, they can. But they can multiply too.

Over the past 18 months transformers have proven to upend a number of longstanding assumptions, particularly around world modeling.

It's a very misleading statement to describe today's LLMs as "simply predicting the next word" even if it's in part true.

But almost everybody wants access to one. This is coming from someone who lived a a kilometer away from the main airport of Istanbul at the time[0], for a long time. I was really disappointed when it was closed as the benefit of access was 100x better than the noise cost.

Of course, everybody has different priorities and getting a huge noise source in your backyard after you decide to call a piece of land your home would be frustrating.

What you want to determine this is not an AST, you want a Program Dependence Graph (PDG), which does encode this information. Creating them is not close to as simple as creating a AST, and for many languages requires either assumptions that will be broken, or result in something very similar to an AST (every node has a dependency on the previous node).

Actually making changes requires further authorization. When I make a payment the screen asks me to confirm the amount I'm about to pay. The same applies to other security sensitive changes.

The term NIMBY is thrown around too much. Yes, there are far too many cases where NIMBYism is taken too far. On the other hand, there are legitimate cases.

I lived in a small, fly-in community for a while. I was very close to the airport, and some people had houses within a few hundred meters of the runway. There was noise, but it was managable because there were only a handful of flights per day (none at night) and there were no jets (the airport could handle them, but it was only intended for emergencies). But that is not the type of airport people are talking about here. They are talking about large airports with constant traffic during most hours of the day and night, with the planes typically being larger and much louder. These are the sort of airports that people can expect a significant loss in the quality of life from. I would expect people to be vocal about it.
