Wouldn't an efficient insurance market be worthless since the expected net payout for everyone insured would trend to zero?
As someone who lives in the area, there's a significant flavor difference. It's like asking whether there's a taste difference between farmed cow and game meat.
This is the kind of stuff that would've gotten me suspended or even expelled had it been implemented when I was a student because I would've purposely disobeyed it in a flamboyant and impossible to ignore way and gotten others to do so with me. I knew as a kid that even if my parents didn't care about school policies (which they often didn't), somebody else's would and would contest them.

With modern measures of "safety" students are subjected to more and more restrictions, and it seems they're becoming more passive as a consequence. That may actually be the intended result. But it seems to be harming students more and more as they seem less inclined to oppose obviously stupid policies and decisions. Later in life that passivity towards authority will harm them as others take advantage of or even abuse them in a professional setting.

Australia's other problem is houses are not homes to live in, they are tax efficient investments.

So you have a lack of properties pushing up rents/sale costs as people need a home to live in and will pay what they have to pay until they can't. Anyone buying has to pay more than the previous owner to ensure a capital gain after being negatively geared to avoid the economy collapsing as Australia's wealth is in property. Requiring someone else to pay more than the previous person is a definition of a pyramid scheme. Higher purchase price then requires higher rents to cover costs and homes become even more out of reach.

You will be extremely lucky to find a house within 45-60 minutes of Sydney selling for less than $1,000,000 / $650,000 usd. Those houses in the $1,000,000 range will be little more than wooden, asbestos ridden shacks, last renovated 30-40 years ago so needing big renovations. The average salary in Sydney is $80,000 according to https://www.forbes.com/advisor/au/personal-finance/average-s...

I've had some of the best days of my life salmon fishing on the banks of little Alaskan rivers - grizzly bears walk by within five feet, bald eagles swoop in to grab a salmon, a whale jumps in the bay, a seal pops its head up and there are glacier capped mountains all around. To top it off my arms are killing me from pulling in salmon all day.

On many occasions I honestly felt like Nat Geo was pranking me!

> Be the low cost competitor and cannabilize your own market. Otherwise you don’t build the iPhone because you don’t want to lose iPod sales.

The iPhone was a high-cost competitor to the iPod. And Apple knew that multi-function devices usually offered poorer user experiences than more focused, (mostly) single-function devices like the iPod. But they still did the iPhone.
Insurers don't on average provide value. If a risk can't be assessed, they will only offer a policy if they think it's value to them at the price they charge.
Your first point is true I think.

Your second is certainly not. The baseline expectation for Japanese homes is constantly improving and something built cheap today is many times better than something built cheap 20 years ago.

Yeah, you get a 30 year loan, but that’s standard. Where do people not do that to afford housing?
Yes, everyone hates bicyclists, including other bicyclists. Loud motorcycles are the the only thing hated more.
I've taken fluoride supplements as a child and I've never had a cavity in my entire life. So with n=2, the evidence is overwhelmingly in favour of fluoride.
Digging more into other internet discussions, a lot of people disagree about the usage. Many believe it's fine to use compute as a noun since it's a truncation of compute resources or compute nodes. Seems like an industry shibboleth like how data/stats people say "data" as a countable plural.
When I read your words, I got an image of a calendar month, scaled big enough for a person to be walking on it. "Forward two months" got me that person walking near an edge, where next month was, and on that edge, the month after that.

It took only a small amount of time and steps for the person to leave "the month."

All that just happened. Popped into my thoughts. I don't really control it very well.

Given the month is roughly square with some room for the month name, and then the days in a grid, week by week, the person was about 4 days tall.

Our internal representations are so damn weird. It would be amazing to somehow share them.

It's entirely reasonable to object to population level health interventions. We don't have to shoehorn everything into the binary crisis, even if the narrative overlords are pleased for us to do their work for them.

The phrase and sentiment that I keep coming back to, that seems to work on both sides of the aisle, is something along the lines of "while I completely disagree, I absolutely understand where X is coming from in re...".

It's very telling that you can't get a "pro guns pro abortions" bumper sticker in the states.
It would be like calling in one of your day-shift security guards to investigate an alarm at the bank.

Well, research on "Code Smells" is not new...
Doesn't your data prove the opposite point? There are so many vulnerabilities and so few people looking for them that even the thirty year old ones have barely been found.

A healthy feedback loop would have trended the average age of each vulnerability at the time of detection to be *short".
Is this like Mailinator?
Possibly, but it stills doesn’t explain why multiple runs will result in better answer. In the work, the authors also hasn’t compared the multiple runs results with the single run using zero temperature. So, maybe all the overhead is just to achieve the same result already encoded in the networks? I don’t know.

Also the result is somewhat counterintuitive. We know that by low level of understanding, if we ask a student a hard question and he tried many times, the most accurate answer is often not the most popular one but a single answer. And that by retaining memory, reasoning capacity and continuous learning , which is not the case with LLM.

Btw: HN is for discussion. If some just want to vote for the beauty contest, please leave.
Every tourist island is having this problem.
Excellent examples. Very similar projects in Barcelona as well.
Yeah, I saw the work from @Sree_Harsha_N, though that accuracy plot on the Adam/SGD side of things is very untuned, it was about what one could expect from an afternoon of working with it, but as far as baselines go most people in the weeds with optimizers would recognize that it's pretty not-good for comparison (not to dump on the reproduction efforts).

Hence why I think it might be hard to accurately compare them, likely SGD and Adam/AdamW are going to have better potential top ends but are going to get more thrashed in public comparisons vs an optimizer that seems to perform more flatly overall. Aaron works at FAIR so I am assuming that he knows this, I reached out with some concerns on my end a little bit before he published the optimizer but didn't hear back either unfortunately.
Would the proposed regulation prohibit explicit clauses requiring employees to read that email? If not, there's no issue from the laissez-faire perspective.

If it isn't in your contract then you don't need to perform the duty. Perhaps some might say, "Aha! But employees don't have an equal footing in this power dynamic, therefore exploitation!". Which would lead me to assume that contracts are worthless if they are unenforceable. So yes, whatever passes for a market in California should be able to handle it without further intervention from the state.

Interestingly, laissez-faire is or was once considered "liberal", but here we are.
This is outdated. Educators have already realized this. Things have pivoted to using AI to generate assignments, homework and tests. In the past these assignments came from specialized coursework books that were edited, and came with a teacher edition to explain rationale and learning goals. This has all been thrown out and replaced with AI. Now that AI is making coursework, and combined with overworked teachers, there is a lack of oversight in what AI is generating.

They are also well-established in certain markets like video and music production. And using their own silicon gives them some nice features like unified memory and power efficiency (and some not-so-nice features like lower system memory limits and non-expandability.) Apple also has some experience with AI, and hardware acceleration, so perhaps they will weather (or surf) the AI wave.

Apple abandoned both intel and Nvidia (not to mention AMD/ATI) which is interesting. Apple seems to be vertically integrated like IBM or SGI - but better at differentiation and at locking in new customers.

Apple seems particularly good at differentiated product design; their devices often just look better than the competition and seem to offer a better user experience.

(That being said, SGI's designs look pretty cool too.)

Insurance can provide value even when risk is assessed perfectly! If everyone has a 1 in 100,000 chance of a $100,000 damage incident, they will have to keep $100,000 of savings to make sure they can avoid becoming homeless from an accident. But by paying $1.25 in insurance, (25% profit to the insurer), they can use their $100,000 for other purposes and generate much more than $1.25 in income from it.

This is wild. I've spent the last three weeks working on this stuff for two separate clients.

Important note if you're taking advice: cache-from and cache-to both accept multiple values. Cache to just ouputs the cache data to all the ones specified. cache-from looks for cache hits in the sources in-order. You can do some clever stuff to maximize cache hits with the least amount of downloading using the right combination.

>>> I don't see uncertainty of intelligence as a property of an LLM as being equivalent to certainty of weather control as a effect of a forecast.

GTA 5 is a simulation. Do you expect to be arrested out side your front door for the car you stole in game?

Weather forecasting is a simulation, it tells you what the weather will look like in the next few days. It gets better as we get more sensors, collect more data and build more accurate models based on those two factors. It will never leap to weather.

Language forecasting (because this is what an LLM is) is a simulation. It tells you what the next token (word) will be based on what came before it. It gets better as we collect more data and hone and refine these models. It will never make the leap to intelligence.

>> To say LLMs are not intelligent is easier if we agree humans spend a good deal of time being unintelligent.

To say that LLMs are intelligent means that language is a requirement for intelligence. Thats some fairly magical thinking... buy any sufficently advanced technology...

Are they proposing to change that though? If you've already agreed with your employee that you're working a 40 hour week and they have the power to just change the deal mid way through, making the deal more explicit won't change the dynamics.

They may as well have a law saying "your employment contract (still) outlines the conditions that you work under". Ie, they're not changing anything. There is already a piece of paper saying what your work hours are, and calling it a "right" instead of a "contractual obligation" doesn't impact the power balance here, at all. If an employee can't hold them to contract they can't hold them to any other law either.

Having a contract that outlines a 40 hour work week is already about as strong as it gets that the deal here is a 40 hour work week. I don't see how to improve on that. Calling the contract something else doesn't seem like it has a lot of impact.

This is only for chinook salmon, which at least in BC has had relatively strict harvest restrictions historically.

The good/bad news: It's accepted that doing this sort of fisheries management is an effective strategy to replenish wild stocks, but does come with a serious set of tradeoffs in remote communities where the fishing industry is a large part of the economy.

This does tie back into farming being a more sustainable option -- unfortunately with the state of that industry it doesn't end up becoming a binary between the two;

Salmon farming practices tend to have adversely negative impacts on the wild fish population (disease spread, escape and genetic degradation of stock) due to how and where the farms are placed.
In terms of sheer game-theoretic value, sure, perfect knowledge will reduce value gaps. However, the thing with having your house insured is that you will have somewhere to live if you have a house fire. The +/- for the insurer might be close, but going from having a house to having no house is a bigger deal than going from one house to a twice-as-expensive house.

Yes, it is the punitive damages which are really astronomically insane. But even merely compensatory damages in the US can be extremely high by the standards of other countries.

For example, in the 2014 Florida case Cynthia Robinson v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, et al, the jury awarded US$23.6 billion in punitive damages as well as US$16.9 million in compensatory damages, for the death of the plaintiff's husband, a smoker who died from lung cancer at the age of 36. I'm sceptical any Australian judge would ever award US$16.9 million (at current exchange rates, AU$25.7 million) compensatory damages for a single person's death. The trial judge cut back the astronomical punitive damages award, but left the compensatory award intact. In the end, the plaintiff never got any of that money (the appeals court ordered a retrial, on grounds unrelated to the damages, and the defendant prevailed at the second trial). Still, I think it goes to show, it is not just high punitive damages, high compensatory damages is an issue too.

sqlite already had an active community fork started by Turso called libsql. They are fixing longstanding API gaps the upstream team isn’t interested in supporting. For example, they added a native write-ahead log API, so you can plug directly into the WAL for streaming replication. This is possible-ish with upstream sqlite + LiteFs but litefs has to implement a whole FUSE file system and can’t run on Mac for that reason.

It’s more risky to run libsql because new features mean new bugs, but it seems worth it to me.
