If you compare against the new hobby plotters -> sure those are somewhat crappy. I am a bit surprised about how much they cost. Those plotters are essentially using the same parts as low end 3d printers, but have half the axis, no heaters, and simpler controller controller boards. Considering that Ender3 goes for $150-$300 why do something like Axidraw or iDraw are closer to $500-$1000? I guess pen plotters now are much smaller niche compared to 3d printers and the effect from efficiency of scale is much bigger than I expected even if most parts are widely available.

But if you look at the commercial pen plotters that were made for doing actual work like HP 7475A - those things fly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe9VWvtvNtg It's mostly vintage models, but you can still occasionally pick them up on ebay and other marketplaces for a price that's comparable or better to the new hobby ones. There are also new vinyl cutters that you can attach a pen, but since the main requirements are different they aren't as fast.
> A cramped bus or train ride gets pretty miserable too.

It's unpleasant but the bus/train will get there at about the same time it would with fewer riders, which is not the case for car congestion.

> There's nothing fundamentally preventing bike congestion either, aside from bikes being miserable enough that they have a fraction of the usage.

Because bikes are smaller and more nimble, it takes substantially more of them to have congestion in the same amount of space as it does with cars. A single stopped car in an 11-foot-wide lane will back up that lane; given the same amount of space cyclists will just go around.

I've been traveling in the Netherlands/Belgium the last few weeks and it's made the space taken up by cars extremely clear. On the streets where cars are restricted, there's a ton of space for pedestrians and cyclists - until a single car shows up, at which point it dominates the available space.

Your phone is the one doing the pinging. I guess Apple could stop it doing that, but then it would be slower to get your location and the Airtag system would be less effective.
> they need meds to function

Once you start taking meds you develop dependence and so your definitely need them.

But if there was a simpler environmental cause/solution, now that is out of reach entirely. It would take years for their mind to re-balance.

If you tried everything and nothing worked, then go for the meds, and take on the risks and side-effects.

But no one does this. They get diagnosed and then straight on meds for the rest of their life.
Where i work the only way to get a noticeable jump in salary is promotion. I call this "horizontal scaling" of salaries.
I believe the "vertical scaling" of salaries would be a better fit. Some already have it in tariffs, most of the time there are tough limits to what you can earn as "simple developer/project manager/sales clerk".

So yes, probably promotions are not the right action often, but the other options need to be improved.

edit: i lacked the explanation of vertical scaling:
rising salary in the job you are currently doing and building expertise and experience. Opposed to being horizontally moved to a whole different job where your expertise is probably worse.
It was I think the last major implementation to enter the market, with first one based on EMV standards being original Google Wallet (which was blocked by Google's typical inability to launch something globally).

USA is just, for various reasons, very very behind on things like card payment technology, to the point that visiting from Poland with card I used worldwide for years I had to first learn special workarounds so cashiers would know how to charge it.

I thought you were going to say it for a minute there - the cultural component that you speak of that I feel is missing in our US culture during the younger years is 'duty'

I was also a mess in my 20s and i had a lot of growing up to do to prepare for kids. Yet. Even after kids, I didnt really grow up quickly enough until kids forced the issue.

Having kids and being responsible for someone else who is solely deoendent on you to have a shot at decent life is a monumental duty. I did not have this imprinted on me and I can see why. Our values today are very different from those of my parents and grandparents, and I think that's the big difference.

Im not sure how we lost that as a culture. Maybe its bad leaders (bill Clinton affair etc), loss of religion, loss of community time due to diminished economic opportunity locally (flyover states, most former industrial towns and even cities), economic migration to large metros breaking family ties, all certainly played a role.

it seems correct to say that duty was the slowly boiled frog in the pan, and it looks increasingly hard for the frog to jump out

My immediate though of the Swift Example Code was "but where does the business logic go".

This trivial example lacks it, and places it simple logic inside the UI code. But what if we want to protect against negative numbers? Or want to increase the number with larger increments if we hold the button pressed? Etc.

Your Delphi setup isolates business logic from UI. Which may seem "overly complex" in trivial demoes, but will help you the very moment you write the first test or add some business logic.

It's also why I see so many React apps spiral into an unmaintainable mess within days after their "git init".

So, what we do is, create cloud-agnonstic YAML files that can be plugged into any cloud. So an AWS RDS effortlessly transforms into a CloudSQL in GCP and a flexible server in Azure.

And this is possible because we follow an architecture-first approach. We have blueprints where you define your architecture, and plug that template to any cloud provider.
Reducing the entire world to your standards - including what means "eating well" - is common around here to come from that country. But I was wrong in that assumption. And to your other question: yes I am fine eating insects, as a matter of fact I do and don't feel at all dystopian.

No.

There are more people alive now than there ever has been. Ever.

This will continue until at least 2100 when numbers may finally peak and then fall.

When human populations numbers fall there is no sane reason to think that they will plummet to zero.

It is far more likely numbers will decrease to the mid 10 billions and more or less stabilise.

We're not socially trained for this. People don't think it's true because people say it. They think it's true because he owns a large stake in a lot of extremely valuable companies.

I work at a law firm. Great idea. My initial gut reaction is that to gain traction you’ll need to do ALOT to convince them of the data privacy.

A few suggestions:
can they install it on prem? (The LLM “server”)
Can they install it in their Azure or AWS tenant?
Can it gather data from popular DMS and PMS? On prem and cloud?
What about geolocation? Data likely needs to reside in the country of the entity if that country has sophisticated data laws
What about things like information barriers - if anything sensitive is going where your teams eyeballs are / permissions allow, how do you deal with that?

Finally as I’m not overly familiar with LLMs I wonder how reliable it is - lawyers will expect perfection and all I hear about LLMs is hallucinations

You can block it and measure consumption. This is easy.

> 2. antidepressant

Originally stims weren't suppose to be used if someone is depressed. But now heaps of people are on both. If you are spiking dopamine you are bound to have a crash and the symptoms of it. There is a lot of reports of this. This crash can feel like depression. So its like a cycle of one drug covering for another.

A lot of enterprise orgs are convinced of two things:

1. They need to train their own LLMs

2. They must fine-tune an LLM to make use of this tech

Now number (1) is almost entirely false, but there are willing buyers, and DB offers some minimal tools to let them live their lies. DBRX proves that it's possible to train an LLM on the DB stack.

Number (2) is often true, although I would say that most orgs skip the absolutely essential first step of prompting a powerful foundation model to get a first version of a product done first (and using evals from that prompting to seed evals for fine-tuning). It's here where DBRX is much more relevant, because it is by all accounts an extremely capable model for fine-tuning. And since it's entirely built by DB, they can offer better support for their customers than they can with Llama or Mistral variants.

More broadly, the strategic play is the be the "enterprise AI company". OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta are all competing at the consumer level, but nobody's really stuck out as the dominant player for the enterprise space. Arguably OpenAI is the most successful, but that's less about an enterprise focus and just about being wildly successful generally, and they're also still trying to figure out if they want to focus on consumer tech, AGI woo woo stuff, research work, or enterprise stuff. DB also knows that to be an AI company, you also have to be a data company, and they are a data company. So it's a natural strategic move for them.
UK is weirdly crap at it compared to other European countries. Dads only get 2 weeks at statutory pay(like £150 a week), mums can take a full year but they get progressively less with time, where if I remember correctly after the first 3 months they only get statutory pay(about £600 a month) then in the last 3 months they get absolutely nothing. So yeah, no surprise women are getting back to work sooner - the financial penalty for staying on maternity leave is huge.
> This will continue until at least 2100 when numbers may finally peak and then fall.

That's due to the higher fertility rate of countries like Niger, Angola etc which far outpace the declining rates of most of the rest of the world like China, Russia, Europe, Japan, South Corea, USA, etc.
I flew it couple of times. For me it's nicer because of 2-3 seating - smaller % of middle seats and if you're flying with someone you can take 2 seats next to each other. Also economy seats are slightly wider (0.5-1 inch) which is not much but still appreciated.

They are definitely felt much nicer and quieter than smaller planes like Embraer E175 or E195.

While I found the MonoProject interesting, I was skeptical using it. Sure, it is an Open Source .NET framework but .NET is Microsoft at the end of the day. I do not (and still do not) want their fingerprints inside my GNU/Linux machine.

What I mean by this is the legalities behind it.

Remember, my comment above is based on views 20 years ago. My perspective is that Microsoft cannot "beat" Linux purely as competition. It isn't going anywhere. While it may not be a concern in the Desktop market, it certainly dominates on servers! Microsfot are not stupid and see CONTROL through other means.

Imagine if most programs that come default in Linux distributions being C#? If more and more programs are written in C# (whether Mono or not) gives them power over the Linux user.

Today, Microsoft has .NET core (recent release .NET 8) and also replaces Mono. We still have Xamarin of course but that is getting replaced with MAUI. A lot of Microsofts software is now cross platform, like Powershell, SQL Server, etc. This "concern" I was having 20 years ago is still just as big of an issue today.

Imagine Microsoft getting the marketing right and SQL Server starts gaining momentum on Linux boxes. This means less using MySQL or Postgres.

Imagine is Powershell starts gaining more traction in Linux land rather than Bash.

Now -- I think this is EXTREMELY UNLIKELY to happen but you can garantuee this is a strategy. They have the money and manipulation skills to help make it happen. Big companies can easily eat this up and it starts with "but we can support you!"

Think about it -- WSL is easy to setup on Windows machines! More and more C# applications can easily be tested for Linux. Microsoft just gave you the tools, and letting developers/companies do the rest for them. Soon it is sheep follow sheep.

Bit of a long winded comment/reply - and while I do not share targeting hate towards anyone (I do not know Miguel personally but he seems like a cool guy) -- I just think efforts should have been elsewhere. Dlang could have been a really, really good replacement. My guess as to why Dlang didn't take off back them was the compiler was not open source. Who knows?
In the original Llama paper, the process of preparing the corpus was described. For the sourcecode aspect, it was fed into their model's corpus after being cleaned of boilerplate code. I think it'd be a fair assumption that most of the other vendors followed this practice when creating their datasets.

I'm not a python user, but in most languages, libraries are referenced in (what most devs would consider) boilerplate code. Purely conjecture, but perhaps without boilerplate code, the LLMs are left guessing the names of popular libraries and just merges together two common naming conventions "huggingface" and "-cli".
Powerlifting and Brexit (2016)
I was once training an intern on the concept of “negative testing”, and as an example someone shouldn’t be able to withdraw a negative amount of money from an account.

Upon a demonstration, at a multi-billion dollar financial company, it caused an error message but the account balance was actually incremented.

The quality of enterprise code is quite poor.
That depends on the language pair(s) and sometimes the domain of texts you're translating.

Assuming you want to stick with the big cloud providers just sign up and test them on your content, they all have straightforward libraries.
What an absolute rubbish idea. That's not how it works, at all.

There are so few lives lost thanks to the stringent requirements put in place, like the mandatory 90 second evacuation rule. Remove these requirements, and it's a guarantee that the numbers will go up, sooner rather than later.

Like most of those rules, the evacuation rules were established after a very thorough analysis of previous accidents, painstakingly determining who died where, and from which cause. It is not some number pulled out of thin air that is suddenly irrelevant thanks to "technology".

The MAX saga is a very good reminder of what happens when you start playing loose with those rules. People die. Quickly, and in mass.

And, as "luck" would have it, we are not even 3 months into 2024, and we have already been served the perfect, actual, counter example to this proposal: the JAL flight, where 379 lives where saved thanks to rapid evacuation.

The length of a RISC-V instruction is in the first byte though, not the tenth.

Note that RISC-V's code density with the C extension is in bytes, not in number of instructions. The core integer ISA was designed to be extensible from small embedded MCUs, so every other chip has to use it. High-performance RISC-V cores depend a lot on macro-op fusion to run as fast as 64-bit ARM.

Yeah, recently my Apple Watch stopped being usable with the tap terminals at a certain gas station chain here. I have to use the physical card. I use the Apple Watch tap at basically all vendors that accept tap, except this one gas station brand. Weird, right? Especially strange is that I paid with the same Apple Watch and Apple Pay setup for a long time (like years) and one day they just stopped accepting it.

I'm much more compelled by the "Gervais Principle" from 2009: https://www.ribbonfarm.com/2009/10/07/the-gervais-principle-...

Basically, instead of people being promoted to incompetence; the IC level is thought of as "economic losers"; IE: the exploited. People who are exploited and throw a lot of effort in are considered "the clueless" and occupy most middle management, and the high leadership of every company is considered sociopathic.

It's a much more compelling ideology to me as it maps unfortunately well into real life; at least as described (maybe the particular chosen words for the classifications evoke the wrong assumptions though).

My perspective is that the "hallucination" problem with LLMs is either the same as or analogous to the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect with newspapers.

Outside our own field, they look amazing and insightful; within our field, we focus on the "wet pavements cause rain" level of mistakes that they make.
We need thoughts like this, even though it doesn't bring any new information. The question the author puts forth is basically; will it work this time?". This is a q. that many seems to believe the answer to is, "yes".

I am one of those. However, distinguishing between truly autonomous AI systems and those that are simply high-performing can become challenging. The line between the two might become blurred when performance reaches a level that seems autonomous. In this context I believe that another "AI winter" will be hard to identify in the future.

Moderate to heavy use. Not 100% heavy use. The official specs claim 15-18 hours battery life. Practically, I'd say I do about 8 hours a day and the Mac lasts a couple of days before the battery goes to single-digit percentages. With lighter use, I see nearly a week of battery life.
