Arithmetic is treated as a proxy for general reasoning abilities.

Which is stupid, because it's not. A pocket calculator can perform arithmetic, as can a Python program, or for that matter a Japanese cormorant, who counts the fish it helps you catch. None of those are considered capable of "reasoning" on their own.

Meanwhile, GPT4 will cheerfully write a program to carry out the required arithmetic operations (and then some.) A study that doesn't acknowledge that is worthless at best.
I'm so behind in this area. I had finetuned a model that was SOTA and worth publishing about in October, but procrastinated. I'm scared to check if somebody else already published on this topic.
The issue with the GPL/AGPL is that it would be incompatible with a “commons” clause.

"The GPL explicitly states that "no further restrictions" can be added to the license terms. The Commons Clause, by restricting commercial redistribution, would be considered an additional restriction, violating the terms of the GPL."
The 2011 Tohoku earthquake moved Japan's main island (Honshu) by 2.4m (8ft) in 6 minutes.
OSS (Open Source Software) is defined by the Open Source Definition. You can find that at https://opensource.org/osd

Your wish for a clause that ensures someone distributing a derivative has to give part of their revenue to you immediately means you're not actually looking for an Open Source license.

Additionally, being able to charge users once they cross a usage threshold is not a part of any existing Open Source license, and the only way I can think of to get that would be an additional contract. And that's prohibited by clause 7 of the OSD.

So ... in summary, you're not looking for an Open Source license: your requirements will need something else, possibly something written specifically for your needs, and you could choose to make the source code available under the terms you've outlined, but it won't be Open Source (or Free Software).

You might start looking at the Business Source License or the Server Side Public License to see if they'd meet your needs (neither of them are Open Source).
What if I am dead?
Agreed, to your last sentence. The problem is when a company goes remote during covid, advertises permissions as "remote," then rug pulls everyone randomly demanding "just 1 day a week," and then 2. I don't give an inch on this issue because it's taken a mile.

But I do agree that if you are hired somewhere that says it's remote or hybrid, you should be able to expect the job to match what it was described as. And in your case, you could find a hybrid job where people actually go in a couple times a week.

That's really all either of us want. If companies would stop playing games, we probably wouldn't have even had this discussion!
Azimutt is an online-only, non free tool. If you don’t want to publish your design or need to analyze someone else’s design, this is a no-go for me. (Skimming it it promises to be able to work only in the browser if you want to, personally I wouldn’t risk it)

Check out https://schemaspy.org/, which creates a documentation locally, if the original project here doesn’t work for you.
Not yet, but I'm sure they will release some benchmarks soon. As for it not being an MoE model, there's still a ton of value in having a small non-MoE model for many usecases, and improvements that get discovered to train the small model can potentially improve the next version of the MoE model down the line.
Clearly refactored for memory safety.
I've not talked about adding additional restrictions to the license, they can commercially redistribute but they would have to also share their changes.

Or don't get the GPL'ed version and then you are not bound by the GPL but it will cost you.

Unless you don't want them being able to redistribute the free version, in which case neither GPL or MIT is what you want as you don't want to OpenSource it.
does it archive / save web pages? I am using Omnivore too and I did not find this option.
I used the Fluent Forever app to acquire about 1,000 Italian words in one year. Agree that it wouldn't win awards for polish (maybe Polish), but it fairly faithfully implements the method described in the book, which is roughly: make your own flash cards, using memorable imagery, from curated word lists designed for forming a wide range of sentences, and then study these using spaced repetition. You also get the ear training audio cues.

You can do it all yourself with Anki, indeed the author of the method started that way, but I am happy to not have had to pay the Anki usability tax.

Even if you don't use the app/method, the book (of the same title) is a quick and useful read about tricks used to optimize language acquisition.
Yes, and this is exactly the reason why root access should be possible for every device, without jailbreak.
There's got to be a private jet tracking joke in here somewhere but I'm too tired to come up with it.
Japan needs to systematically make it affordable and attractive for women to have kids because "you are the one" isn't the only problem. Japanese women I know here in Australia say childbirth is not well handled back in Japan, with a lot of crap post birth mother and child experience, and it destroys your career path in a nation famously bound to "one company for life" -They all say they prefer to be in Australia than back home, lack of extended family aside. It's a pretty sexist culture.

Plus, in the end, who wants to be a battery chicken for the nation? France had medals it handed out for mothers of 5 or more kids, I don't think that would incent Japanese women.

Korea is even further down the path. China is staring the problem in the face pretending it's not the central governments fault. Russia .. don't even start.

TL;DR motivated immigration from emerging economies is going to keep developed nations alive, or robots, or all three (including the other thing) but you aren't raising the childbirth rate by AI matchmaking: thats not the problem. Life is.
I think a better question is "why choose async/await over fibers?". Yes, I know that Rust had green threads in the pre-1.0 days and it was intentionally removed, but there are different approaches for implementing fiber-based concurrency, including those which do not require a fat runtime built-in into the language.

If I understand the article correctly, it mostly lauds the ability to drop futures at any moment. Yes, you can not do a similar thing with threads for obvious reasons (well, technically, you can, but it's extremely unsafe). But this ability comes at a HUGE cost. Not only you can not use stack-based arrays with completion-based executors like io-uring and execute sub-tasks on different executor threads, but it also introduces certain subtle footguns and reliability issues (e.g. see [0]), which become very unpleasant surprises after writing sync Rust.

My opinion is that cancellation of tasks fundamentally should be cooperative and uncooperative cancellation is more of a misfeature, which is convenient at the surface level, but has deep issues underneath.

Also, praising composability of async/await sounds... strange. Its viral nature makes it anything but composable (with the current version of Rust without a proper effect system). For example, try to use async closure with map methods from std. What about using the standard io::Read/Write traits?

What is the language agnostic answer to the same question?

I imagine something to do with memory usage or avoiding thread or thread pool starvation issues. Maybe performance too?
Thank you, that is a fair point! I will look into both alternatives, you suggested!
The apartheid and oppression instituted might just be one of the most sophisticated system mankind has ever done to anybody. Not just the level control and brutal justification, but audacity to claim that apartheid does not exist. Not to mention the cognitive dissonance to claim that if it exists, it is deserved to them.
Let me turn the question around on you. Imagine the Apollo program somehow provided no value whatsoever beyond what it achieved - putting a man on the Moon. Would it have been worth it to do it? To me, the answer there is undoubtedly yes. The whole point of all the 'value' in existence is to achieve these great things.

Without these great achievements, I'm not even entirely sure the direction our species has taken could be argued to be good. Declining fertility, urban cityscapes that feel increasingly dystopic, working vastly more than even hunter-gathers did (or do), and more. But to what end? There needs to be some payoff to go down this road. For one who is not into consumerism, the only payoff I can see is in these great milestones that probably could not be achieved without going down this path we've chosen.
Or it could simply be a very enthusiastic fan.
I did some reading into rongorongo a few years ago and I came away with two conclusions:

1. It is very likely the scripts developed after contact with Europeans. That is, the islanders saw Europeans writing things down and then over the years (ships stopping on rapa nui were quite infrequent) began to do likewise.

2. The script found on rongorongo articacts …doesn't really seem to be much of a script at all. No one has ever been able to decipher anything, none of the natives of the 19th century could ever shed any light on their meaning, and the glyphs don't seem to be present in the ratios one would expect from language / writing. They are script similar to the way Aztec (not Mayan) codices are script. Perhaps they had meaning to one person, or a handful of people, but they probably weren't standardized in any significant way.

The paper doesn't directly contradict either, but it has quite the title and the authors do sort of equivocate on both points and present this and that as equally likely even though I don't think that's the consensus.

In any case, it seems the thread running through a lot of writing on the topic is the implication that it would be more interesting or culturally important if the islanders had developed writing on their own. Perhaps that's true, but I find the more likely sequence of events fascinating enough -- because of the implications. If Rapa Nui had been left alone, it's entirely possible that rongorongo would have developed into a fully fledged writing system. That is, only the seed of seeing some infrequent visitors writing on parchment is required for a very small and isolated community to begin to develop writing. (The Rapa Nui died off / were genocided.)

Consider: Egyptian heiroglyphs appear in the archeaological record on the order of 100 years after writing in mesopotamia. That these heiroglyphs share no DNA with cuneiform is generally used as strong evidence that the two civilizations developed writing independently. I've seen that version of history taught and written as fact in the past, although I don't know what the consensus is now. Learning about rongo rongo has colored my view of that. Perhaps some itenerant Egyptian genius made his way back from the East and began to experiment with making symbols which have meaning and seem to give those who wield them power.
Unpopular opinion: Seems like it matches the book trilogy then.
Boston/Mass has let every tech "lead" for the last 60 years "slip away," so why would AI be any different?

Boston has never actually had a lead, but it has had the opportunity to be competitive, especially when MIT was significantly better than Stanford, but every time things have played out the same way.

And yes, there have been task forces and various govt programs and all that before. They all say and do the same things and get the same results, namely re-elected and annoyed when someone points out that they've moved on to ranting about other things, having done nothing to stop yet another tech from playing out elsewhere.
noodly its appendage, sphagetti its code, in its image we are made, amen.
There are a lot of moments not covered. For example:

- async/await runs in context of one thread, so there is no need for locks or synchronization. Unless one runs async/await in multiple threads to actually utilize CPU cores, then locks and synchronization are necessary again. This complexity may be hidden in some external code. For example instead of synchronizing access to a single database connection it is much easier to open one database connection per async task. However such approach may affect performance, especially with sqlite and postgres.

- error propagation in async/await is not obvious. Especially when one tries to group up async tasks. Happy eyeballs are a classic example.

- since network I/O was mentioned, backpressure should also be mentioned. CPython implementation of async/await notoriously lacks network backpressure causing some problems.
This is a study of "emergent" properties of LLMs — whether something unexpected shows up (i.e. imagine that talking dog suddenly becoming great at pointer arithmetic and never using-after-free).

It was noticed that LLMs can do some arithmetic, but we are yet uncertain how much and how it happens exactly.
I just realized I have a 9995-based Tomy Tutor in my closet. Now that I know about this project, I'll have to dig it out. FWIW, for the two years I lived in Richardson, TX, I drove by TI mainside every day to get to work. I eventually remembered how much fun 9900 assembly was and got the vanity plate BLWP [Branch and Load Workspace Pointer], one of the most unique 9900 instructions.

ADHD is the latest in a very long line of "vaguely applies to everyone" diagnoses. The history of psychology is full of them. Asperger's was in vogue a few years ago, chronic fatigue syndrome is for people who like scary diagnoses, irritable bowel is one with a reputational devil may care, codependency is a bit antique, long COVID is topical. Any sufficiently motivated person can diagnose themselves with these. And boy are there motivations: have one of them and you instantly become special. (And yes before anyone says it, there are many genuine cases.)
Interesting. What library is that? Does it use propagation off from TLE data?

Safe and Secure Coding in Rust: A Comparative Analysis of Rust and C/C++
The book "Safe and Secure Coding in Rust: A Comparative Analysis of Rust and C/C++" is a deep dive into the world of system programming languages, with a spotlight on Rust's capabilities to ensure both safety and security in coding practices. This book primarily explores the potential issues inherent in C++ programming and outlines how Rust's innovative features can prevent these challenges from arising.
>> A common refrain is that threads can do everything that async/await can, but simpler.

Who says that? Threads and async/await are different things, and it doesn’t make sense to say one can do what the other does. And threads definitely are not simpler than AA
I use KeePass. It's a little bit cryptic to set up the OTP - you have to create an advanced field called TimeOtp-Secret-Base32 with the seed in it - but after that you just Ctrl-T to get the latest code.
All these toy lisps aren't really advancing the state of the art. It's dog bites man at this point, there really isn't much new to talk about.

There's nothing wrong with that, but , oh, look, a new scheme, yea. None of the previous 70 changed my life in any meaningful way.

minimum viable product, it’s right there in the name. If you customers hate it, then it’s not really viable, is it? And if they do, but they use it anyway, then mission accomplished… I’m really not down with this article.
It's amazing how defeated we are as citizens and consumers. Ideally we wouldn't hear that GM is just walking this back, but that GM executives who cooked up this scheme were already indicted and facing serious federal prison time. Selling personally identifiable tracking information like this is akin to AT&T selling recordings of all your voice calls to the highest bidder.
In Islamic economy interest is forbidden, there are no taxes and every Muslim is required to give 1/40 of their wealth to the poor every year (zakah). It is collected mandatorily and distributed by the government. Non-Muslims pay an annual protection tax aka jizya, in exchange for not paying zakah and not serving in the army. Modern scholars argue that collecting tax is permissible because of modern needs and responsibilities of the government (e.g infrastructure building), but only the strictly needed amount.

Why would it do that? Rules and axioms scale (slowly) with the number of layers. The model can heuristically approximate more easily and more incrementally.

> "just use Unicode, all you need is Unicode" dogma is really harmful; a lot of "international" software has become significantly worse for Japanese users since it took hold.

The alternative would be that the software used Shift_JIS with a Japanese font. If the software used a Japanese font for Japanese it wouldn't need metadata anyway.

There really isn't a problem with Han unification as long as you always switch to a font appropriate for your language; you don't need to configure metadata. If you don't you are always going to run into missing codepoint problems.

In cases where the system or user configures the font, properly using Unicode is still easier than configuring alternate encodings for multiple languages.
It's implimented as a magic filename? Not a virtual or real file that actually appears in a filesystem? You don't have to do something like mount a virtual fs that maps to your host windows fs like a bind mount or nfs mount, and also add that fs to PATH?

If so, that sounds terrible, and very Microsoft.
Users are not your guniea pigs, either.

To convince people to use something, what you're proposing needs to be less-broken than what they already have. The whole "let's burn down their house because they don't want to move to the new one we built" attitude is a disgrace.

>So I don’t buy Apple’s argument that developers must pay them for the core technology that the iPhone user has already paid them for.

The argument is pretty straightforward actually: the iPhone SDK is Apple's intellectual property and they can charge whatever they want. The fact that developers have to pay for Macs and iPhones to make apps and users have to buy iPhones (all of which Apple makes a margin on) is irrelevant. Copyright doesn't have a "but if you're already making money off of it you can't charge people other ways" clause. Disney makes money off of you when you watch their movie in theaters, stream them at home, buy their branded merch, and go to their theme parks. Nobody calls the royalties/licensing fees that Disney makes off of the above items a "Fleece", even though you arguably need to buy one of them to enjoy the other (would you really buy their merch if you don't watch their shows?), or that their IPs would be less valuable if one of the revenue streams didn't exist.

All of this is orthogonal to the question of what apple is doing is "fair" or whether is good for consumers/developers/apple, and I wish discussions on whatever Apple is doing wouldn't conflate what they're entitled to do vs what they should do. In other words, rather than arguing "The technology fee is a fleece, they shouldn't be charging the fee when they're already making money off developer machines and iPhones", argue "Apple is entitled to make money off their SDKs, but it'll be better for consumers/developers/apple/everyone if their SDKs were freely available". But I suspect that's less persuasive. The DMA throws a further wrench into this, because it limits what Apple can do with their IP, but given that the article doesn't try to reference any DMA provisions to support his argument, I don't think the author is interested in this line of argument.
Yeah, loved the Chinese series! It was very true to the book and exceeded my expectations!
