Oh shit I read that as n^{24^n} I was like what are these kids smoking nowadays.

Yes dynamic programming is indeed faster than brute force and I think I can convince myself this is the same approach with a little thought.

I think everything we said here was correct (yes both of us) but I was responding to an incorrect understanding of your strategy (you aren't doing one step ahead you are indeed calculating total expectations).

The brute force was just to show that the overall problem size was small when n is 6, in spirit of the original comment, and that brute force was just fine.

> 2TiB is only the limit if you stick to 512 byte blocks, the filesystem supports up to 4096 byte blocks giving 16TiB.

Aye, I'm aware, but a 16TiB FAT32 file system in that configuration is only usable on Linux, at which point... why? Use exFAT in that range!

Windows NT 5.x's storage drivers don't support hard disks larger than 2TiB, and there's nothing to do about that. It puts the upper limit of FAT32 on those systems at 2TiB.

My guess is it either got some boilerplate response from L2 instead of actually going to a network engineer or it did go to a network engineer but they're connecting from a different network with different traffic management and don't see the issue.

At my old uni, L1 were paid students, L2 were paid staff, and L3 were the actual netops/sysadmins so sometimes L2 would try to close something out that needed escalated.

In addition, they had resnet (residential network) and pronet (professional network) where the former was for student housing and the latter everything else. Resnet had more restrictions and traffic shaping such that pronet traffic was prioritized. In addition, resnet wireless had a different NAT setup whereas resnet wired used public IPs with inbound traffic blocked. This lead to all kinds of caveats like online gaming using uPnP only working on wireless despite wired having public IPs.
This is a big problem, especially for people new to a field who can't easily tell AI-gen books from human-authored ones.

It also saturates the recommendation system, massively lowering the quality of recommendations that you get for a quality book. This used to be great, because it helped discover other high quality titles. Now, I'm conditioned to automatically skip the list of recs on the basis of it being mostly useless.

Your points are valid, however in this instance the submissions came from different accounts.
My thoughts/takeaways from the conference in DC, for the future of the industry etc.
Big discussion in the Netherlands now, and going on to some extent for decades already, about: does it make sense for such a small country to have this much intensive agriculture?

As the article mentions, the nitrogen deposited in the little patches of what should pass for nature are killing it.

Nice to be self-sufficient in food, but we're more than that in some areas.
But say something negative about farmers and you'll have protesters in big tractors blocking highways and city centers.

The parties currently trying to form a government will only let these problems fester and not make hard choices to put an end to them one way or another.
That’s kinda my point though, by having such generic and wide ranging laws, it opens up room for loopholes and confusion. They should just say specifically what the desired impact of the law is.
Yes, today the deployment model for production is to connect to a cloud service for the scheduling. You still run the code yourself, but the SDK needs to connect to the backend.
You’d think that. But having spent time higher for operations/support in higher ed, it’s really hard to attract people that have a quality foundation of knowledge.

We don’t pay enough
We were just taking Javascript and now you're back to Rust? That same function with that same keyword acts differently in the two languages.

My best guess is you're defining it (mostly?) by the syntax while I'm defining it by how the function acts. By what I'm talking about, that's a non-blocking function in Rust, but written the exact same way in Javascript it's a blocking function.
Nothing changed since first Ryzen launch:

- Desktop Ryzen CPUs support ECC, but implementation by motherboard vendors is not mandatory

- Laptop and G-series Ryzen CPUs only support ECC in pro variant

- Threadripper has ECC support

edit: not confirmed but supposedly laptop and APUs starting with 6000 series all support ECC.
Not disagreeing here, but how I understand it, the year-round availability of fresh produce is a quality trade-off.
This discussion is about the claim it causes civilization to collapse, not whether I'm okay with it. But hey, thanks for steering this in an ad hominem direction.
It appears to be software designed to use an SDR or (and?) a DTV capture card to capture the output of a VCR playing a VHS at the RF level, and then transcode and store it. Pretty cool, if I'm understanding it correctly!
The US will never come to the defense of Taiwan. The US and China will never go to war with each other. Nuclear powers do not fight each other directly, they do it through proxies, like we are doing with Ukraine vs. Russia.

The U.S. might send money and materiel, they might get the U.N. to issue statements, but an actual shooting war between China and America? Forget it. It will never happen, because if it did happen, life would not be worth living anywhere on earth for the next 50,000 years.

And even sanctions are highly doubtful. Personally, I really like being able to design a circuit board and get it fabricated and shipped to my front door from China for $25. And massively interrupting the trade flow between China and the U.S. would lead to a world-wide depression which would make 2008 and the great depression look like boom times.

Surely Taiwan knows this, and I suspect that is why TSMC wants to build fabs outside of Taiwan.
The article focuses on dyadic relationships, but groups could use these techniques too. Decision-making is hard, and reaching consensus often takes more time than anyone wants to spend. With simulations like these, however, members of a group could put their digital delegates into a chat room together, with instructions to work the question out; then run the simulation at accelerated speed until the job is done.

Returning from the chat room, each simulation would then persuade its principal to accept the resulting decision, using whatever arguments and forms of language that person would find persuasive.
"This engagement taught me that a lot of so-called technical problems are in fact rooted in human issues, and those usually come from management."

Oh hey, I didn't see you there. Welcome to earth.
GP's claim is that corporate development is holding product development back. That's what I'm responding to. I have no doubt that FOSS can produce clones of existing products, occasionally even clones as good or better than the original. But FOSS is not driving any form of product development at all. The anti-corporate pro-FOSS thing is just disconnected online idealism.

FWIW I own a PineTime and enjoy hacking on it quite a bit but a commercial smartwatch it is not. For me that's fine as I don't use a smartwatch as a daily driver, but if I did a PineWatch would be a nonstarter. I do hope that the PineTime can drive an ecosystem of open smart watches that occupy different points in the cost, functionality, customizability, and reusability space than commercial smartwatches do, especially those that may not be profitable to tape out large runs for, but I'm also thankful for commercial product development to drive new innovative products into our hands.
Is it disabled or is it simply not certified?

Last I checked ECC was not certified to work on most "consumer" oriented hardware, but AMD didn't make any attempt to actually disable it.
Absolutely, and yes YAML is trash.
Sounds to me as if they have a Palo Alto NGFW at the edge, filtering the traffic. UC Berkeley appears to be running a Palo Alto for at least part of their infrastructure.

My friend, it makes up a fine entropy source, I can tell you. :)
Arguably worse. This arises from the physics of DRAM. This occurs at a much lower level than an edge case of a feature that lets you leak info over a side channel.
Instead this is just: the data is stored as a small charge in a grid by flipping nearby points on the grid alot you can leak some charge into your target charge.

The smaller the charge, and the closer together the charges, the easier rowhammer attacks are. Also, the smaller and closer together the charges, the faster, cheaper, denser, and efficient your RAM gets.

There are mitigations, but they are pushed to the limit.
There are devices made more recently than 20 years ago that only do fat32. It's not sufficient to point out some standard or that the Linux kernel has a driver and that somehow covers every embedded device.
You can't quantify the improvement in these terms because you yourself don't have a way to measure it.

Makes me think of Steve Gibsons Security Now episode on the 4 factors of security:

1: Something you know (Password)

2: Something you have (OTP)

3: Something you are (Bio)

4: Someone you know (3rd Party)

In 2024, the last 2 seem a bit more challenging. With AI voice and biometric data being able to be lifted from internet media, there's some more to think about when designing these systems. These are fun challenges to think about. I'm glad Steve decided to break the 1000 podcast limit, I highly recommend checking it currently along with the archive.

I don't even understand what understanding exactly means, perhaps anyone who understands it, can enlighten me?

Do I, myself understand? Stand under what exactly? What is that supposed to mean?
OpenAI should make something so that people can enter their prompt and maybe even drop in a knowledge base and then share with anyone else who wants that functionality.
My Desktop machine runs 24/7.

It also acts as a server, so it does a lot of work overnight while I'm asleep. (Daily backups, other routine tasks like cleaning all the crap that accumulates during the day, etc.)

My Laptop runs when required. It takes a whole 15 seconds to boot up from scratch. Then it gets turned off. The laptop is a Desktop alternative, rather a main machine in its own right.

Oh. And the Raspberry Pi? It also runs 24/7 solely as my website server.
Even the latest commercial LLMs are happy to confidently bullshit about what they think is in published research even if they provide citations. Often the citations themselves are slightly corrupted. I actually verify each LLM claim so I know this is happening a lot. Occasionally they are complete fabrications. It really varies by research topic. Its really bad in esoteric research areas. They even acknowledge the paper was actually about something else if you call them out on it. What a disaster. LLMs are still useful for information retrieval and exploration as long as you understand you are having a conversation with a habitual liar / expert beginner and adjust your prompts and expectations accordingly.
I wrote a tool for work that does the same thing based on request logs. It would parse each line into a structure then merge the same call point structures down to one spec. It was helpful to see the api but in the end was not that helpful in back filling the openapi spec.

things to consider:
- junk data from users will show up. unless your downstream service rejects extra params users will mess with you.
- it documents each endpoint but its harder to say if this "user" data is the same as another's endpoints "user"
- it is hard to tell if users are hitting all endpoint inputs/outputs without manual review.

There will be problems on Linux after some updates if you don't reboot, so I reboot when updating like on Windows.

So you're supposed to at least reboot.
While of course large networks of heterogeneous nodes is where CFEngine really shines, do not dismiss its use in smaller scale.

Especially since the Enterprise edition is free for up to 25 nodes.

One can use CFEngine for managing a dozen of Linux boxes very efficiently!
You'd be surprised by the number of people who does that. Not everyone has a fancy browser and not everyone can see.
If you're taking 500ug and it just seems longer, I would question if you're actually taking acid or the dosage. That's like 5ish+ hits my dude. Yes, it should be much more intense (and longer). However, you do need to take it all at once. If you wait a couple hours and re-dose, it does just make it last longer.
How lossy is transcoding at the RF level of an already lossy medium?

At Meta they probably don't get built unless they're impactful, and they're not impactful if they're not used in production to solve a real pain point.
Well, to me it is. I've been working on a relatively large projects based on Node (Typescript), various Lambdas, some doing server stuff only, other serving Client ... It's a pretty complex and large application overall and the whole architecture was really well designed from the ground up, except one thing: typeorm. It was fine at the beginning when doing simple things, but it got really tricky after. Then, I've had always very complex "migrations" to add sometimes just a field. And eventually I've had an issue I logged in 2019, and it's not been resolved yet. Well there is no solution due to the abstraction layers of typeorm, and I've solved (i.e. workarounded) my problem by executing a proper SQL query instead ..

I mean there are 2k+ issues open https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/issues/ - yes, not all of them are bugs and limitations, but if you filter the bugs, that's still more than 1000 ...
The convention of passing ctx does almost the same thing though. Make a new context.WitCancel and pass it to the goroutine.

It just requires programmer cooperation, but as long as you pass ctx all through the stack down and handle err on the way back, it is not often you deal with it explicitly.
Especially when all the leaks were republished by all the American news agencies, with no consequences.
> I believe being able to run whatever software you want on the hardware you buy is a basic right. If you want to forgo that, fine, but you should have the choice.

Ok, so then why do you support the EU denying me that choice?
Didn’t you get the memo? If you’re holding the hammer by the head and wondering why it isn’t driving the nail in that it is clearly the fault of the manufacturer.

There’s even a handy aphorism to remind you that the user is never to blame: “You’re holding it wrong.”

Jokes aside, I wonder what the general writing abilities and communication skills are for people that cannot for the life of them get usable results from an LLM.
Brilliant show. I grew up watching Science Court by the same creators. It's got a very sly sense of humour.
Yep, upvote for this. As even if there is a refund within a week, I don’t really want to do that unless I can test it.

I don't think the IP shared is anycast. All of my personal test nodes are Seattle based, and they all see the same basic path to the IP that was shared; transit to San Jose, then two hops in BunnyCDN's network. Additionally, I get a different IP when I lookup the test hostname, that traces to Seattle.

It does feel like maybe a different server/network path getting the SYN+ACK vs the ACK, but probably in BunnyCDN's equipment --- but maybe something weird in Berkeley's (wired) network causes weird behavior for BunnyCDN? Hard to really know without pcaps from both ends, which are hard to get. Something funky in the load balancer seems like a good guess to me.
Dogs are little more than farm animals, in the sense that we're farming them for companionship. They might be our friends now that we have killed all the ones that would defy our commands.

Look at any wild animal, do they want to be owned, do they want to be put on a leash? Of course not. Animals want to be free like any other living being, but just like cows, dogs would not survive on their own because we have artificially selected them. Imagine aliens capturing humans, breeding them in captivity until they are docile little creatures that cannot survive on their own. It's easy to feel sorry for farm animals because we eat them, but in a way people who love pets are not any better than the farmer, despite the culture thinking otherwise.
You can't depend on it at all. I mean, you can use it for a tremendous amount of work, but until there is a way to constrain the bullshit LLM's can't be used for anything that requires a correct answer.

The terms "depend" and "require" there are the hard versions. You can't send people to the moon on the outputs of LLM's.
This is only one strategy to get adoption. The other is to have better apis/more features so that new projects gradually move to your runtime.

In this hypothetical, eventually being on node would become like still being on java 8 is today.
> The attacker will need to cause dozens of machine halts in order to achieve even a single exploitable bitflip. Dozens of machine halts is not something that goes undetected.

Is there a process for the operations team managing the system to figure out that it was an attack and not just flaky hardware?
The Go way is to pass the long running goroutines a different ctx from the short running.

Or even one ctx per goroutine and cancel them dynamically according to whatever logic.
Transformers are just pattern matching. So if you write "give me a list of dog names" it knows that "Spot" should be in that result set. Even though it doesn't really know what a dog is, a list is, or what a spot is.

This is being actively used at Meta in Production across several engines ; the paper makes explicit references to this.

Radix Themes has a bunch of interesting ideas that are worth checking out even if you don't end up using it:

- Color palettes invert on dark mode

- Colors are independent from widget variants, gray can also be an accent color

- Inset - an element that breaks out of its parents padding

- The same variants (variant, color, size, radius, contrast) can be found on nearly all components

- There's a preference for composite components, providing better control over styling

Some of these things have kinda somewhat been done before in other Frameworks, but Radix feels the most consistent so far. Like you can take what you know about one component and apply it to all others.

However, they need to fix their blurred borders on Safari. The global scaling causes floating pixel values which browsers supposedly handle, but still feels weird to me.
> Long before YouTube and Netflix gave the world instant access to a deep repository of media, Scorsese began the project of amassing his own private on-demand video library. In each week’s TV Guide, he would note the movies and shows that caught his interest. A full-time video archivist in Scorsese’s New York office would then record the telecasts from a kind of audiovisual hub made up of multiple VCRs and monitors, which could often be active at all hours. The tapes were meticulously labeled, cataloged initially using a library-like card system and later a computer, and filed away for Scorsese’s personal viewing and research.

Wait so let me get this straight. Scorsese, an incredibly busy and prolific director, paid a full-time team to record TV content, around-the-clock, all based on him whimsically highlighting programs of interest from a weekly TV guide?

And then he'd periodically book a flight to NY to randomly pluck these VHS tapes from storage and watch them?

Was this just an ultimate wealth flex? Could someone like Scorsese really not simply gain access to virtually any content he wants directly from studio sources for research work?
I tried it just now on my spare Win10 desktop, and it went like this:

1. Download and install Docker desktop for Windows

2. Restart Windows (guess you don't have to do this with just Python)

3. Run Docker Desktop

4. Say "no" to signing into a Docker account

5. Wait for engine to start, which took a few minutes the first time, a bit annoying

6. Pull and run an image (I tried nginx)

It was weird being asked to log in, but the "no" button was pretty clear. I didn't feel like I was forced to use WSL to avoid paying; maybe they've backtracked from something. Unity was far more convincing that I had to pay.
I had one of these when I was around 6-8 years old. I did a few of the projects, but never spent much time with it until I realized I could hook up each part to an extension cord and when I plugged in the extension cord the part would explode.

I spent a lot of time as a kid just making sparks. I loved taking batteries, wire, and a steel file and running the wire up and down the file while it sparked.

Totally brainless, yet somehow I still managed to become a EE and an extra-class HAM.
Perhaps the problem is that we us the same money for both necessities and luxuries.

It allows assholes to decide to see everything as a luxury that someone they don't like doesn't deserve.

There is nothing about a traffic infraction that requires money as the penalty, instead of say, an annoying class or community service, or limiting their use of a vehicle to work or school, which is a thing that is done sometimes.

Money is just easy for the administrator at the (no pun) expense of the subjects. That's a shit reason to do something that way. But the majority of the rule-makers and system-designers are people that this setup doesn't harm. What a strange coincidense! That right there blows all these crybaby excuses how it would just be so hard to even try to think of anything else right out of the water.

Like I said in the original comment you replied to and are now ignoring:

> That’s not a practical solution. Sometimes you don’t have a choice, as demonstrated above. By that logic one could say “don’t change anything about your system and you don’t even need virtual environments”. Which is somewhat true, but also profoundly unhelpful.
Apple performs poorly at giving you choice by... making something different to everyone else? Do you understand what choice means?
No. Like OKRs, Kube is something Google released on the world to kneecap potential competitors.
"We haven't died yet" is the most selection biased evidence you could possibly invent. 10 on a scale of 10.

It also has no predictive value given the nature of catastrophic threats continues to evolve rapidly in quantity and quality, and the elements of past threats (the cold war -> nuclear war), continue to be threats (autocratic regimes -> fighting or planning wars that could become existential to their leaders -> nuclear war).
