Today's Republican party has completely jumped the shark. As a libertarian, I'm sympathetic that they are talking about some very real issues. But I've yet to see them come up with any policy proposals aimed at addressing those issues with general principles, rather than substance-less gestures that are charitably described as a continual campaign performance.

Perhaps it's been this way for quite some time. Today's demonized unaccountable "Big Tech" is just the previous decades' lauded captains of "private" industry - the party has a history of fostering the very problems it then later campaigns on. But having gotten to this point where attorneys general are spending time filing SLAPPs against investigative organizations for engaging in political speech, it feels like the wheels have completely fallen off the cart.

If you've ever tried building an additive synth, this probably seems obvious. If you play two tones with exact ratios together, the brain has a tendency to interpret them as a single tone with a different timbre. By making the ratios slightly off (don't have to be by much at all), or by making the ratios vary a little over time (eg. Subtle vibrato), the brain is able to pick out the "consonance" as a chord, and it sounds far more interesting.
Why specifically Elixir? Have you tried other languages that run on BEAM?
"may stall AGI progress"

The only possible meaning of "stall" there would be: The exponent on the exponential gets smaller. And I wouldn't call that a stall.
I can't concur. VMware was the leader in virtualization technology for a long time, and honestly nothing is quite as simple to start with as ESXi if you've never used a type 1 hypervisor before. I'm not so familiar with the APIs, so perhaps you're correct in that sense.
If you are living in a place that forces you into car ownership as a means of transportation, then you are receiving a subsidy in the form of the infrastructure that enables car dependent city planning. You're also compelled to own a car, which is enormously expensive, getting even more expensive, and is probably the thing you do on a regular basis which is most likely to kill you. Sprawl is expensive, and so is car ownership.
What makes a song sound “good” is another question - there seem to be countless factors. Most people can easily tell you if they subjectively like or dislike a song, but typically have a hard time explaining exactly why.
If you provide a low cost for poorer people to drive in, then more poorer people might start driving in since traffic will be better, which negates the purpose of the congestion zone.
We did it as a result of my suggestion, and I'll freely admit that it does seem pretty goofy!

The motivation, though, was that we wanted to write tests for the function that would run on a developer's machine using `cargo test`, and the Hubris kernel currently only compiles for the targets that we actually run Hubris on (various Cortex-M targets). So, if we want to write tests for that function, we would either need to move it to a crate that doesn't contain Cortex-M-only code, or litter the whole kernel with `#[cfg(not(test))]` attributes so that most of it doesn't compile when building tests. This felt much less unpleasant than conditional compilation. We're hoping that, eventually, other complex-but-not-architecture-specific kernel code will end up in the `kerncore` crate as well so that we can write tests for it, too, so eventually it won't be a crate with only one function...

I do think that there's room for tooling improvement to make writing host-platform tests for `#![no_std]` Rust that gets cross-compiled to another platform, but I don't have any particularly concrete ideas for what that would look like. For now, at least, putting it in a separate crate lets us have our tests --- and those tests let us ensure that some of the function's edge cases are handled correctly, so I do think it was worth it.

I'm in game development, and I run ESXi for two reasons:

* Unmodified macOS guest VMs can run under ESXi (if you're reading this on macOS, you have an Apple-made VMXNet3 network adapter driver on your system--see /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleVmxnet3Ethernet.kext )

* Accelerated 3D has reasonable guest support, even as pure software. You wouldn't want to work in one of those guest VMs, but for any sort of build agent it should be fine, including opening i.e. Unity editor itself in-VM to diagnose something

Does anyone know where either of these things stand with Proxmox today?

I imagine macOS VM under Proxmox is basically a hackintosh with i.e. OpenCore as bootloader?

This is true however that is changing very soon now that SHA-256 is no longer marked experimental.

I don't think they necessarily conflict, and good programmers will pick what's appropriate for the context. The problems start when either path 1 or 2 gets followed dogmatically.

I do have to say I'm closer to 2 than 1. Most code really isn't that hard to write, and just solving just your own problems instead of the general case can simplify things a lot. And the code is 100% under your control, which can also have its advantages.

Some programmers seem afraid to write code. The amount of contortions I've seen folks pull just to re-use some package that wasn't really a good fit (or just wasn't a good package to start with) has at times been bewildering. In the most extreme case I replaced a badly working solution someone spent half a year on with something that worked well in just a week, just writing it from scratch (add another week or two for bugfixes, so that's 3 weeks).

On the other hand I've also seen people NIH the silliest of things. In the most extreme case here they had done their own templating, i18n, database layer – the works. That would have been okay if it worked well, but all of it was ad-hoc junk.

For example they did their own flag parsing for $reasons, and only "--flag=value" worked and not "--flag value". I spent quite some time being confused by this because it also didn't error on the wrong usage (it just did the wrong thing...) They gave me shit for nOt REadINg tHe dOCumENtAtiOn. Like, mate, I've never seen any tool where "--a=b" works but not "--a b" before or since, and I just used the space-variant out of habit without thinking. They didn't fix the flag parser, and I wasn't allowed to either. Didn't work long with these spanners.

Nothing wrong with doing your own flag parsing necessarily; I did my own flag parsing for Go because I don't like the stdlib package and others I could find. Waste of time? Maybe. But it's my time to waste and at least it works well.

The problem with NIH usually isn't the NIH part, but shitty programmers writing shitty code part.

Confirming what panzi is saying here, ssddanbrown you do not need to relicense your work. GPL and MIT are compatible. GPL only requires that you distribute the _combined_ work as GPL. So, your github project remains MIT and others can use your code under that license, but when _they_ link to TinyMCE and distribute, that distribution must include source code and also be licensed GPL as a whole.
I generally agree, but a key issue here is fairness. Telling someone in India they can't have three kids because Johnny techbro wants to feel ok about flying 100,000 miles a year isn't great.

> The aforementioned three reasons lead us to believe that open source LLMs will continue gaining momentum. In particular, we think they provide an exciting opportunity for organizations to customize open source LLMs that can become their IP, which they use to be competitive in their industry.

Just search "open source".
It's been a while since my Haskell days, but I think the key difference is whether you are abstracting over the IO or if the IO sits outside the pure code entirely When you abstract over IO you have blue(pure code) that contains generic red, green, purple, or orange code. With sans-IO you inverted this so the non-blue code is driving things forward by calling into blue code.

Rust, in particular, does not support abstracting over syncness at the moment, although there's work happening there. Even if you add support for that you also then need to abstract over the executor in use. My fear is that this will be too leaky to be useful, but we'll see. For now sans-IO is the best option in Rust.
Containers are a bad take on a solved problem. The problem was encountered, studied[0] and solved, decades ago.

During the Viet Nam conflict, the Air Force needed to plan missions with multiple levels of classified data. This couldn't be done with the systems of that era. This resulted in research and development of multi-level security, the Bell-LaPadula model[2], and capability based security[1].

Conceptually, it's elegant, and requires almost no changes in user behavior while solving entire classes of problems with minimal code changes. It's a matter of changing the default from all access to no access, all the way down to the kernel.

I should rephrase that. Beef is bad in terms of efficiency - about %2. But cows are magic devices that can turn grass into milk and beef.
Not even comparable. The amount the water companies have been draining into rivers and the sea around the UK is embarrassing, especially when they still pay out dividends to share holders while claiming they need more money for investment in the infrastructure to deal with the sewage spills, while barely being able to service their loan obligations.
The hardened DisplayPort IP is connected to the ARM cores, and requires a significant amount of configuration and setup. FuryGpu's firmware primarily handles interfacing with that block: setting up descriptor sets to DMA video frame and audio data from memory (where the GPU has written it for video, or where the host has DMA'd it for audio), responding to requests to reconfigure things for different resolutions, etc. There's also a small command processor there that lets me do various things that building out hardware for doesn't make sense - moving memory around with the hardened DMA peripheral, setting up memory buffers used internally by the GPU, etc. If I ever need to expose a VGA interface in order to have motherboards treat this as a primary graphics output device during boot, I'd also be handling all of that in the firmware.
> Majority of people in the US don't pay thousands a month in healthcare/insurance either. Really premium, high-end health insurance plans can exceed $1K monthly for families, yes, but regular plans don't. In addition, for employer-based health insurance, the individual often pays only a small portion of the total monthly premium (1/3 is common, but varies).

yeah but I really really don't want to be dependent on my employer for health insurance. This means I'm pretty much blackmailed into staying there until I have something else lined up. And when I get fired it compounds the problems hugely.

> You mean you cover this through your taxes. The state does not just literally or figuratively print money to pay for health care. In the US, over 40% of the population pays $0 income taxes, yet still has access to government provided healthcare via Medicaid.

I know, it's my taxes. But that's fine. It's worth paying taxes for cheap healthcare for everyone. I want poor people to be healthy too. The good thing about it is that nobody has to worry about crazy bills. We spread the cost over everyone and that's great. There's no deductibles either. And we don't pay a fortune in taxes.

Also, the way the health system operates keeps it cheaper. The hospitals work together and they purchase together in bulk. General Practitioners have central offices in every neighbourhood with all standard treatment rooms so they are assigned one every day. They don't need to buy their own practice. They don't need to worry about running a business, doing accounting, finding suppliers.

It was especially ideal during covid when some of these centers were specifically assigned for covid patients and others for other things, reducing cross-contamination.

> In fact, when you combine Medicaid and Medicare, the US has the largest national healthcare system in the world - in terms of dollars spent and people covered.

But yet people can still be bankrupted if they get sick. This is the one thing that's avoided here.
I'm a huge fan of bollards that retract for motorist with access, but that's be impractical in such a case. Bollards are simply more visible for the average motorist who doesn't bother to read signs. The Netherlands are far more advanced when it comes to designing roads so the road user visually understands "you enter a village and 80 km/h is not acceptable any more".

I live in Linz in Austria, three years ago they turned a small passage into pedestrian only street and I still stop motorist and explain then that things have changed. Most just didn't see or understand the sign (which comes with an extra sign with a lot of exception obviously, for a 100m passage with no parking spaces or private garages). The city won't draw the "pedestrian zone" sign on the ground, I'm sure that would help a lot.
I don't think so unless you specifically look for it (some govt and def contractor orgs procure no-wireless laptops still for security reasons).

I don't have any interest in defending Pelosi's stock trades, and I agree that sitting members of Congress should not be trading stocks.

That said, this report seems inaccurate to me. Pelosi put between 1 and 5 million dollars of Forge Investments, which is a method for investing in per-IPO companies, as I understand it. Databricks is one of those, but so is OpenAI, Hugging Face, Anthropic, and Humane. If I wanted to invest in pre-IPO AI companies it seems like a very natural choice and I don't think we need insider trading to explain it.

It's also the case that the report she filed calls out Databricks stock, which is perhaps an indication that she was particularly interested in that. Stronger reporting would tell us how often she's invested in Forge, if this is the first time, and so on. One other possible explanation is that she was investing ahead of the Humane Pin shipping and wanted to pull attention away from it, for example.
The situation can be far more nuanced than this. It's not the people, it's the cars, cows, planes, land, and fuel they consume.
When I use apps on my phone I communicate with a specific app at any given time. If I'm making a phone-call my inputs go to the phone-app, not to a specific AI-app. So if there was an AI-app I would have to separately activate it and talk to it, else it would not be hearing and seeing what I am doing with my gadget. As pointed out by others it is unclear if Apple would like a 3rd party app which sees and hears and can control everything. Whereas a separate gadget can do that.

Apple could do that and maybe they will try something like that, but they are not there yet. And Apple's interest is Apple's interest, not your interest. A separate gadget they cannot control.

I was fortunate enough to take a cognitive psych grad seminar from him in the 90s, co-taught by his wife, Anne Treisman. He always seemed given to thinking a little more deeply in the moment than most people do.

One half-joking comment he made about science in the real world vs some idealized notion of it has always stuck with me. In a discussion about whether the results of some paper conflicted with some model or theory of cognition, he mused that scientific progress in psychology (and other non-hard sciences) was really about embarrassing rivals with competing models. No high-level model was ever stated precisely enough to rule out some particular finding; you could always tweak your theory a little to accommodate it. It's just that at some point, you might be too embarrassed to do so.
I believe it actually has a lot more to do with the tools than some "mindset" in the community. You don't see this sort of thing in C++ really, because deep trees of transitive dependencies are painful. While Rust... has pretty much the exact same package management style as Node, so it doesn't surprise me that it has similar results.

Even more so because many Western countries are at high risk of being in Japan's position within the next 20–30 years.

Japan reached peak population growth roughly five years ago. Japan was informally understood to be an ageing population before that but now they are statistically formally so.

Hence the West would do well to watch and learn from how Japan prepared and how Japan continues to manage an ageing population.

There are people who make the case for custom fine tuned embedding models built to match your specific types of data and associations. Whatever you use internally it gets converted to the foundation model of choice's formats by their tools on the edge. Still Embeddings and the chunking strategies feeding into them are both way too underappreciated parts of the whole pipeline.
