What happens if you’re sure that four decimal places is the smallest, then suddenly a partner system starts sending you 6 decimal places?

Cool, but does it actually return the correct results for these SQL statements, especially when ORDER BY is concerned?

I.e. does it somehow have a way to get a recall of 100% from its indexes?

There have been a few around, but the limiting factor (as you can see from the BOM in the link) is the cost of the actuators. They get expensive fast.
Skimming through this threads and the various answers to the multiple "has anyone found a use for a robotic arm?" questions will explain why there's no such company. There simply is no consumer-grade market.
That font >.<
That’s because one of the first stages of the backdoor, that’s actually running at build time, checks if the distro is DEB or RPM based and aborts otherwise
although not the target audience of tfa (no build caching, because we have a compact c codebase), we always use relative paths in compiler invocation, and that naturally results in relative paths in debug info.

so we've never had the problem the author set to resolve -- despite each of us (and the ci) having different source tree locations, gdb picks up the source code just fine.

i guess build systems people use love canonicalising source paths?
"SIP is special".

Yes, I know, just like ftp 8) I do hope that whomever invented putting the control channel in a separate stream from the data is mildly discomforted. Mind you, all that stuff was invented a very long time ago, when trousers were a major trip hazard.

Anyone who's paying attention sees what's going on. But no one has the will and skill to stop them.
As long as everyone admits that number 3 “please regulate us” is really just asking for regulatory capture and is in no way a good faith move, but rather protectionism. Then I’m good to proceed with these conversations.

These people have not just suddenly developed consciouses. This is a game move.
There's been some polls on social media: Overall picture was 80-90% using Node. Then Bun, then Deno. I'd bet in the real world it's 99% Node for production. If in 3 years 5% were using Bun, it would be a great success (Node usage is huge). I think they're on track, but would not recommend Bun for production backends as of now.
You don't really need a robot arm for this though... Also on my list of projects for cats :)
Are you happy with the C code generated there?

I'm not sure there isn't a buffer overflow in the vector_decode code he showed there, likewise I don't see any error checks on the code and I am not familiar with the sqlite api to even know whether errors can be propagated upwards and what error conditions would mean in that code.

This code is probably fine for a quick side project but doesn't pass my smell test for anything close to production ready code.

I definitely would want to see a lot of unit tests around the decode and encode functions with fuzzing and to be honestly that would be the bulk of the work here. That and documentation on this code. Even though he encode function looks correct at first glance.

I also don't see an easy way to actually unit test this code as it is without actually running it through sqlite which outs a lot of dependencies on the unit test.

I would either need to spend a lot more time massaging gpt to get this to a point where I would be fine shipping the code or you know just write it myself.

Not just "ClosedAI" but "CloseAllAI". He's been actively lobbying congress and others to ensure OpenAI are the only ones, with a few other big actors, that can make AI.
It would look similar to the Soviet Union - a bunch of very powerful people pretending they don't own the stuff they control. Wealth is just one of the multiple leverages that can be used by powerful people, if it's not accessible then any other leverage will do. The issue is with power concentration, not wealth.
https://github.com/dariost/soks works better for what I needed to do with wireguard. It does more or less the same thing but it reuses an existing wireguard interface. I detailed my use in this blog post https://www.nicoco.fr/blog/2023/09/10/wireguard/ (yes, shameless plug).
>towards meats vs carbs vs veg?

That doesn’t make sense. First in that list you have meat and vegetables which are produce and carbohydrates which are source of calories - i.e. vegetables are constructed partly from carbohydrates.

Sugar is easily the most addictive thing majority of population consumes regularly and it has huge health implications. Banning sugar would disproportionately improve health of human race compared to negative effects of allowing free range over all drugs

I agree that the gaming industry is a place where starting a C++ project still makes sense.
I don't think we've figured out how to make good cheap mechanical actuators. I think that engineers make do with inaccurate actuators by changing the mechanism around it.
Robot arms need a level of reliability that isn't cheap yet.
my understanding is for speed reasons most distro's dont build from the source they build from tarballs.

If they built from the source there wouldn't be this issue.

Its a war, and unfortunately you can’t be always 100% accurate. The war in Iraq and Afghanistan were much worse, Afghanistan right now is much worse than it was a few years ago with Taliban the terrorist group literally ruling over them, but that’s not hot and news worthy. All the attention has to be on Israel and its supposed “Genocide” while literally Hamas’s rulebook calls for the genocide of Jews. It’s crazy to me how one sided the news is. Also have you seen any army detailing and showing what they are doing like Israel is? If they had stuff to hide, would they release all these footage?
For money, that's a sane setup.

But do note, that in currency, there are multiple, actively used currencies that have zero, three, five (rare) or even eight (BTC) decimals. That some decimals cannot be divided by all numbers (e.g. only 0.5)

Point being: floats are dangerously naive for currency. But integers are naive too. You'll most probably want a "currency" or "money" type. Some Value Object, or even Domain Model.

XML offered all this, but in JSON there's little to convey this, other than some nested "object" with at least the decimal amt (as int), and the ISO4217 currency. And maybe -depending on how HATEOAS you wanna be- a formatting string to be used in locales, a rule on divisibility and/or how many decimal places your int or decimal might be.

(FWIW, I built backbends for financial systems and apps. It gets worse than this if you do math on the currencies. Some legislatioins or bookkeeping rules state that calculation uses more or less decimals. E.g. that ($10/3)*3 == $10 vs == $9.99. or that $0.03/2 == 0.1 + 0.2, e.g. when splitting a bill. This stuff is complex, but real domain logic)
Good point about use of full names. Since you are a native, you might not have noticed this, but I find that as a foreigner operating in professional settings, I only hear people referred to in English as $title+$family_name. Aside from my office mate, I can't think of the given name of anyone on campus.

Speaking of having identical names, the one that cracks me up is 김정은.

I see. That's an enchanting vision indeed! And with other human players in the same space it sounds unendingly wonderful.
as i understand it, the tooling would "see" some of the questionable configs that were in the tarballs.

Because they're packaged into tarballs they cant be checked. or or to the point they use the tarballs because its much faster...
I would think in some cases it would be a better indicator of workplace culture than an influence on the culture itself.

I also think that extra good etiquette in the break room can have a positive effect, especially if the users around-the-clock make a serious effort to always leave it better than they found it. And not least when the employees end up respecting each other somewhat the same way, better than their jobs require. Or sometimes even better than the company itself treats them.

I’m personally of the view that most AI safety people are delusional and irrationally terrified of progress.

I remain open to having my mind changed on this matter, but thus far, I’ve not seen a single good argument for restricting development of AI.
Also I have understood that robot arms are in real life rather complicated to program to operate correctly. So any process would take substantial effort. Magnitude harder than controlling some relays or reading some sensor data.

Traceability. There's a difference in how easily someone can insert nefarious code without it going through processes that might reveal or stop it.

Precision should be part of the spec for integrations. With the integer multiple of minimal unit, that makes it clear in the API what it is.

e.g. it doesn't make sense to support billing in sub-currency unit amounts just by allowing it in your API definition, as you're going to need to batch that until you get a billable amount which is larger than the fee for issuing a bill. Even for something like $100,000.1234, the bank doesn't let you do a transfer for 0.34c.

For cases where sub-currency unit billing is a thing, it should be agreed what the minimal unit is (e.g. advertising has largely standardised on millicents)

This has really been bugging me about npm.

Anyone can publish a open source repo and add it to npmjs. Users going to the page on npmjs will see that the repo with the code is github.com/myrepo.

But when I do `npm i myrepo` there is no guarantee that what is being pulled is in any way similar to what is in the linked repo. Creating a false feeling that the code could be reviewed.

At the very least, Github should not allow this for code on their platform (ie, if npmjs has it listed as the repo of a project they should scan that the project actually builds to the content or notify npm who should have it flagged). Or npmjs should regularly scan the same - checking that the code you would get by compiling matches the code being offered

Bear in mind that if a bad actor can get in at the level of the NPM user, even if the user is not running with elevated privileges (which it often is since you need to be a superuser to listen on port 80 or to read SSL certificates, and PM2 with handling for SSL is way above the ability of many devs, sigh), they can scan for vulnerabilities, and perhaps open themselves a very big hole.
This page has a fairly helpful breakdown of the various types of indexes available, but from what I can tell it doesn’t explicitly mention the correctness trade offs made when using an index vs a pure table scan. I know in pgvector HNSW for instance is inexact. But it doesn’t really matter in a RAG context - even the embeddings themselves are stochastic.

Depends where you live... In some places those models are entirely affordable. But likely will also there get less and less affordable.

On the other hand, nation states are also famous for having penny-pinchers write procurement rules.

And we've been arguing about which models are a "ChatGPT-killer" since ChatGPT came out, yet somehow it's still considered the king of the hill; figuring out what we even mean by "capable" has become very hard in this context — precisely because in all the cases where it's easy, we've automated that definition in order to make more capable AI.

Government is necessary, in order to organize a complex society, but government is like any other organization: made up of people, many of who are out for their own interests. The most prominent of those interests are power and money.

Whenever government proposes banning a technology, one must ask: who benefits? The LLMs, even in their current state of infancy, are powerful tools. Restricting access to those tools keeps power in the hands of wealthy corporations and the government itself. That's the power aspect.

The money aspect is even simpler: Don't doubt that some of those wealthy corporations are making donations to certain officials, in order to gain support for actions like this. Almost no one leaves the Congress (or almost any parliamentary body in any country) as less than a multi-millionaire. Funny, how that works...

I've enabled "trusted publishing" as it is called for python packages (publishing to cheeseshop/PyPI).

However, what they call trusted publishing is just a configuration where PyPI tells github that publishing from a particular workflow name on a particular repository is ok, without further tokens. So PyPI "trusts" github actions and the maintainer is out of the loop.

All good? Well, if you trust Github!

It would be a lot better to me if both the maintainer and github were involved, something like - the maintainer signs off on some artifacts, and the github action verifies they are reproducible exactly by a workflow, and /then/ it's published.

Sure, but there are also single-player games on the list. You asked for a source that such a thing happens. The link proves that it does.
> Seems trivial

Said like someone who's never tried it :)

For a start you're going to need a camera. Maybe more than one. You want depth sensing? Even an cheap choice like a RealSense is going to add another $250 to your costs. And you'll need a sturdy mount for it, the robot's going to vibrate the table and you don't want to suffer motion blur.

Got the camera in a fixed location, over the area you're picking from? Then the robot's going to block the camera's view when it reaches in. No real-time hand eye coordination for you. Putting the camera on the robot's wrist? Now you've got motion blur problems - and reliability problems, because normal USB cables aren't designed for continuous flexing. You've also got a gripper in view all the time - and now the camera moves, things are always out of focus.

The reach of the arm isn't long enough to give you many bins to drop items off into, considering the number of lego parts there are. The longer you make the arm, the greater the torque at the shoulder joint. Making the motors bigger? Now the elbow motor is heavier. Gearing them down? Now you've got gear backlash.

Your Dynamixels will break, for some reason. Maybe eventually you'll figure out why. In the meantime, $50 each please.

Parts like the small satellite dish https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4740... will prove very hard to grasp. And there's like 50 different colours, you're going to need to know your way around lighting and camera settings if you want to reliably tell transparent light blue, transparent medium blue and transparent dark blue apart.

And that's before you get into questions like how to tell a 2x4 stud brick apart from two 1x4 stud bricks next to each other - or how to grasp a brick when an adjacent brick is blocking you from getting in with the gripper.

Every single one of these issues is solvable - but by the time you've solved them all? You could have hand-sorted that lego 20 times over :)
Just off the top of my head, Ross Scott on youtube (AccursedFarms) has plenty of videos on the subject. A few of them are tucked away in reviews but he now has a dedicated "dead game news" series.

These may not be games you'd want to play but the important message is that it's concerning that the biggest publishers (Ubisoft, EA etc.) can release stuff that will randomly die at some point in the future for no good reason and that they won't even release a patch or server software so you can play the product you paid them for.
Sorry, I put that badly. What I meant was that I don't understand why PBT is something you apply before MT.
Writing purely self-referential comments seems like it is a bit of an odd hobby, don't you think?

I witnessed more than five such privatizations in two different countries and they all ended up with the "investors" not even investing the minimum of what would have been necessary to keep the infrastructure operational. A decade later service quality is abysmal, infrastructure so bad that the state has to come in and help.

And these are only examples from postal services and public transport from the european regions I lived in, but I heard/read similar stories from nearly every of the 27 EU countries. The nations that still have exceptional services are the ones that didn't privatize them.

So if what I said is complete nonsense you surely have no problem pointing me to the wonderland where privatization lead to better services, lower prices and better service coverage — but we both know that never was the true interest behind privatizing anyways, don't we ; )
