I am not sure why some are open and some are closed - if I had to speculate, it’s perhaps that the commercial models help fund the team. They come with safety features built-in as well as API-based access (instead of needing to self-host). They word their mission (https://mistral.ai/company/#missions) as follows:

> Our mission is to make frontier AI ubiquitous, and to provide tailor-made AI to all the builders. This requires fierce independence, strong commitment to open, portable and customisable solutions, and an extreme focus on shipping the most advanced technology in limited time.
And most good controllers try to spread that usage out over the entire disk when possible (eg not writing the same cells 3000 times while other cells go unused).
What could a malicious model do, though? Curse at you?

I think this is unlikely to replace all flights either- the flights that do exist are probably for people arriving in Narita to get to Nagoya more quickly than getting out of the airport, taking a 1 hour local train to central Tokyo, then take a Shinkansen to Nagoya vs just walking to another gate. For pretty much every other use case the train is probably cheaper and faster.
>I know that a deceased person doesn't care about pretty much anything. Yet, that doesn't preclude me from caring about them, does it?

As I said:

>Funerals, like life, are for the living. The dead don't care -- they're dead.

As such, what you're doing isn't to benefit the dead. Nothing can benefit them.

It's to benefit the living as I said. And there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, it's a lovely thing to do.

But it doesn't benefit the dead in any way and pretending it does seems disingenuous IMHO.

That said, knock yourself out. I have no issue with what you're doing.
I am against seatbelt laws, so you got me there.

I grew up as a proud resident of New Hampshire which has no such law on the books despite being one of the safest states to drive in the USA.

Motorcycles are legal so why shouldn’t driving alone without a seatbelt? Perfect example of government overreach as cars get loaded with nanny state technology. I subscribe to the philosophy of personal responsibility, something that seems to have been lost in the modern litigious, it’s everyone-else’s-fault culture of the 21st century.

Yes, and also the human owners are increasingly crazy. As in, they want the same kind of unlimited care a human would get, but don’t want to pay for it and take it out on the vet when presented with the bill.

Well written. I don't know why responsibility is so scary.

I've never used a table saw but I rock climb regularly which has plenty of risk. Are table saw accidents purely due to your own actions? Or is it like a motorbike where there are factors out of your control and someone could crash into you.

If losing your fingers on a table saw is 100% due to your own actions and there are no externalities, I would call that negligence not accident.
I wonder if this occurs more with small animal vets--"pet vets"?

I know of a number of large animal vets that retired and enjoyed many years of retirement. Perhaps being in the large animal practice where decisions are made on economics and not emotions helps them survive. Those vets also did small animals but it was probably more of a sideline for them.
I used to think along similar lines, until three weeks ago when I tried KDE for the first time.

I think both sides play a role - aiui cmd.exe (and other programs) interpret the arguments in an inconsistent way, but this is only relevant because there is no standard way to pass multiple arguments. I had something like this in mind:

- Create `CreateProcessArgv`, a version of `CreateProcess` that takes `argv` rather than `lpCommandLine` (like `execv*`)

- Create `GetCommandLineArgv`, an alternative to `GetCommandLine` that returns an `argv`

- Create `ProcessCreatedWithArgv` so a program can prefer either `GetCommandLine` or `GetCommandLineArgv` (for compatibility with those that have their own quoting, such as cmd)

Then child processes can use `GetCommandLineArgv` with no overhead if the parent invoked with `CreateProcessArgv`, otherwise `CreateProcess` and `GetCommandLine` will continue to work with no overhead. There would be a compatibility layer in the kernel to either split `lpCommandLine` or quote `argv` for `CreateProcess`+`GetCommandLineArgv` or `CreateProcessArgv`+`GetCommandLine` combinations. Probably need a way to opt out of taking `lpCmdLine` in `WinMain`.

Seems not-impossible, but also a bit of a pipe dream...
That's just the reality of developing for Windows. You don't need their compiler but you do need the headers. Same goes for macOS which requires installing XCode.

This is a moral panic emanating from the same people who brought you "climate change isn't real because snow still happens". If you look at graphs of the number of preventable bird deaths due to human causes, the graph is dominated by outdoor cats (which kill billions per year), then a sliver of that is from window collisions, then the part attributable to wind turbines is too small to be visible.

Reminds me of machowski's article on order books.

By making these things public, I think it'll decrease the variance in costs in the space. If it was public knowledge how similar SaaS are priced, people would always go for the cheaper option (this assumes identical features, which is not the case).

I guess in the end, pricing is determined by costs (materials, labor, rents) for a floor and then profits (which might as well be a random number).

I don't get it. Why being so overly critical? Why should they update the ODBC.exe or dxdiag.exe, or even regedit.exe? They serve their purpose and work just fine.
I survived a childhood regularly using a radial arm saw. My dad was very clear I was not old enough to use it until I was 12, and then we did a full afternoon of what the proper way to use it and how to get hurt using it.

These are literal power tools with spinning blades of death. You shouldn't use these without training and you should understand how you get hurt on one of these. I see this as government overreach yet again. I'd only be ok with this if the requirement has an expiration date so that way it doesn't block future innovation.

In the near term, China will build all its nuclear power plants in the east anyways since they have a surplus of renewable energy in the west with the trick being transmission (UHV infra not withstanding, it still seems to be an issue).
I mean there are plenty of things wrong with it. It’s a workaround, so:

* if you use this, you can’t use any other sidebar at the same time

* you need to put in custom userchrome.css to hide top tabs. Once you’ve done this you can’t easily swap between vertical and horizontal tabs.

* it’s ugly and, while not exactly buggy, there is a lot of UI weirdness that comes with it being a workaround

I still use it and have done for years but native support would be a big improvement.

The cybertruck can be run offline and without any connectivity indefinitely, which is a good thing. But as for this post insinuating it to be a good vehicle for post-apocalyptic use, what nonsense.

The last thing you'd want is an all electric vehicle made up of extremely complex parts that you almost certainly couldn't fix or replace yourself from jury-rigged improvisations. For a scenario in which society collapses, this vehicle would soon be close to useless.

What you would want is a biodiesel or even diesel-powered 4x4 vehicle that's as unobtrusive and dirt simple as possible to use and run, also to fix. Think old jeep willys or old, pre-90's F150 pickup and you get the idea (except with an engine that can plausibly be converted to use biodiesel, which unlike gasoline, you can literally make yourself.)

It's definitely semantics and I'm not sure it is worth arguing if we understand what one another means. Unless we're clarifying.

But I do think it is good to discuss the role that others have played in the discovery. After receiving the 2017 Kip Thorne said (Weiss and Barish were the other two)

It is unfortunate that, due to the statutes of the Nobel Foundation, the prize has to go to no more than three people, when our marvelous discovery is the work of more than a thousand.

Even discoveries of the past were due to the efforts of many. Einstein's shoulder's of giants, which I jokingly refer to as "3 scientists in a trench coat, all the way down". But with modern science, the problems are more difficult and the effort to make these breakthroughs more clearly depends upon the work of hundreds or thousands. It is good to promote these ideas and this recognition. I think it can also help motivate us to better work together, and not letting us think we are a lowly unimportant cog in a giant machine. Because while we may be small cogs, our work is still important (even if not as important as others).
What's the easiest way to run this assuming that you have the weights and the hardware? Even if it's offloading half of the model to RAM, what tool do you use to load this? Ollama? Llama.cpp? Or just import it with some Python library?

Also, what's the best way to benchmark a model to compare it with others? Are there any tools to use off-the-shelf to do that?
...And we won't be able to find them anywhere.
Personal responsibility is a hard sell in a world where human beings are not absolutely sovereign agents. Regardless, the law isn't stopping you from driving without a seatbelt. I find it odd that you have such a visceral response to a class of laws that is violated quite regularly.

I moved nothing. You didn't read my original comment that clearly specified "real world attack". Your second link doesn't qualify either. Besides, if you can connect a malicious USB device to the user's computer you've already won. There are a million ways to exploit that which have nothing to do with Chrome.

The xz thing was a big deal precisely because it was a real world attack. It wasn't something created by researchers as a proof of concept and disclosed to vendors. It was discovered in the wild, luckily before it caused any damage, but it was absolutely a real world attack.
I went the other way - because I so much disliked working with DTOs to work with JSON, I wrote a library that allows you to get rid of DTOs in the first place. No more POJO / DTO in order to work with JSON data and much more. You could take a look at https://github.com/americanexpress/unify-jdocs. I think you will find it interesting!

I trust what I can verify. Whenever I read an article, I trace down the source of any claims. Whether it be another article or press release, a study, the original statement that someone made on a show or something similar, if it’s verifiable then that’s that. In terms of claims, you really just need to know what to research, and find the original source of information.

Unfortunately, that does take time and effort.

Curious how collection in the first place doesn't seem to be at issue, but merely access. I recall the days when it was more like a shell game between the words collect and access, where for a while denial of the former just meant red tape around the latter. That was probably before signals intelligence powers were widely expanded to a myriad of federal law enforcement agencies, though.

It's also funny to me that the aftermath of January 6th seems to be a large driver of this so-called reform recently. Bringing the full power of the US signals intelligence apparatus to bear upon people who decided to storm the US capitol doesn't seem particularly unreasonable nor unfair to me.
In the jargon of philosophy this a friction point between Deontology (rules-based ethics) and Consequentialism (outcome-based ethics).

Deontologically there is a strong case against seatbelt laws, but the consequentialist perspective is rather compelling.

I’m generally a deontologist but find myself supporting the seatbelt law. It’s just such a small price to pay when stacked up against the consequences. I guess that means I’m not really a deontologist.

There's some crazy in equine vet work - the racing side can be a bit brutal with some exposure to criminal elements (not extensive but in places it can be hard to avoid) and the crazy horse lady types can drive vets to drink; these are people that love horses, collect horses, but can't afford to feed them or bear to see them put down, etc.

In general though large animal rural vet work is smoother sailing than the small stuff (from conversations I've had thanks to a farm background and to having developed a bit of animal history recording software for agistment | stud records some decades back).

I think the llamafile[0] system works the best. Binary works on the command line or launches a mini webserver. Llamafile offers builds of Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct, so presumably they may package this one up as well (potentially a quantized format).

You would have to confirm with someone deeper in the ecosystem, but I think you should be able to run this new model as is against a llamafile?

Even the previous model version is unavailable in my entire region.
The ABI on GOES-16 is not exactly like a camera. Instead it collects light across different spectral bands and stores them independently. So when you see a color image from GOES, it's actually a composite of specific bands. I don't know how NESDIS (source of the imagery here) does it, but a common way to produce "true color" imagery for this class of satellites is to superimpose their red band, their blue band, and an interpolated "green" band.

The ABI also collects shortwave infrared light, which is still possible to observe at night. Since the satellite's normal use is for atmospheric weather observations, it's common to show the SWIR bands at night so that that clouds are still visible.
Fivefold Slower Compared to Go? Optimizing Rust's Protobuf Decoding Performance

My main desktop had the same installation of Windows for 15 years, from Vista in 2007 right the way through to 10 in 2023, having upgraded through every intermediate version. I only finally did a fresh reinstall for 11.

I would copy the hard drive contents from one drive to the next each time I bought a new drive, and ultimately that installation survived three complete hardware refreshes and countless interim component upgrades.

Needless to say, there was a LOT of cruft hanging about by the end. From ancient components from old versions of Visual Studio to drivers for early 2000s era scanners. Most of it still ran too, testament to Microsoft’s backwards compatibility.
