Another phrase I truly despise is "all but". First, it seems to mean exactly the opposite to what it actually means. Second, why even?
> I avoid the data leakage for sensitive things like health care by never using websites related to those things. I know that people often forget this, but at least in the US, using a website to interact with health care providers is not actually mandatory.

It is not mandatory but is made extremely onerous. I can get on the web site, authenticate while tracked, enter my request, or I can call an automated maze, get repeatedly dropped, talked to a ChatGPT knock-off, get dropped again, and maybe I get a human to answer my request. Then, I get an email asking if I am satisified with the service.

Show HN: KuralGPT. Search ancient Tamil scripture with ChatGPT
Hello HN, Senthil here. I run a venture studio called Sprint1<https://sprint1.vc>Last weekend we launched KuralGPT <https://kuralgpt.app/>. It is an effort to improve the search experience of Thirukural.

Thirukural aka Kural <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kural> is an ancient Tamil text passed down from generation to generation for at least two millennia. This text has been continually in print since the 1800s. This is really astonishing for a largely secular text to survive for centuries before printing presses were invented. It is a collection of 1330 couplets divided into 3 parts, Virtue, Wealth and Love. Each part has a collection of chapters, each chapter has 10 couplets under a specific theme.

I try to read one to two couplets a day and I read most of them. As a kid, I used to be fascinated by a few folks who memorized all the text and could give one or two examples for any given scenario. Couple of times I tried to create a search engine that could find relevant Kurals for a given query. Most of my past efforts relied around keyword matching.

During last Christmas break, I started this project to tackle this problem again. I think it largely works. Please take it for a spin and provide your feedback. For those who grew up in west, this phrase might be interesting starting point.

- Can you find kurals that are similar to the bible phrase "turn the other cheek"?

How is it done?
Each couplet had a few Tamil explanations and one English translation with one line English explanation. My first attempt was to create an embedding with Tamil and English explanations. Search was not that great. Then I took each couplet and wrote a prompt with original text, explanations and asked ChatGPT to create a page long summary. With this summary, I created embeddings and stored it along with some meta data.

When you search something, it creates an embedding for the query and compares the querie's embedding with each couplet's embedding and returns the top 10 matching couplets.

Tech Stack:

- ChatGPT
- NextJs
- Supabase with pgvector.

What is next?(Would love your feedback)

- Improve the search. Currently all results are purely based on couplet level. I would like to expand this. If you ask about a prticular chapter or part, it doesn't do really well. It just simply returns the top 10 matching couplets. I would like to make it more like Perplexity.ai and provide links to chapters.
- I have an idea for a game that lets you pick 7 words for a given couplet and see how close your selection to others.
- Tamil has a large body of ancient texts<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sangam_literature> that are very intresting to me. I would like to implement search on these.

DECT still has its uses. I've encouraged more than a few people to buy multi-handset base units that have Bluetooth built in for elderly parents (mine is Panasonic; they call it Link2Cell). Leave cell phone in kitchen (or wherever base is) to charge, carry a DECT handset on you at all times. If you fall and break a hip, you're never without a phone. It can make and receive calls from two different cellphones.
I think the expectation that the entire consumer market (or even just a majority) is going to collectively become universally informed about all their purchases and shift the market for the better is far less likely then a government intervention being successful.

If you go to countries where there was never any government intervention relating to cigarettes do you know what you'll find? A lot more people smoking cigarettes.
Let's look at a really dumb comparison.

You are the owner of a house and you have a tenant person X, that's living in that house. You let person X to live in your house. They in turn, paid you the rent regularly, took care of your house, and never gave you any reason to complain. Personally, person X built a garden in the backyard, got a dog, got married while living in that house and now live with their partner and 3 other kids that go to school, have friends and consider your house to be their house.

You were fair though. You were very clear to person X at the very beginning that at the end of every year, you will put them in a lottery system where the winning odds are 1 in six, and the other 5 people you are pitting them against can potentially replace them from your house. And if they don't win for three consecutive years, you will throw them out and get a new person, person Y that won the lottery to live in your house for 6 years. But you don't know anything about person Y, i.e. if they will pay you the rent, if they will take care of your house. But you are completely fine with it.

You were clear to them so it's not your fault. They should have been more careful about getting that dog or getting married because they knew there is a rather high chance that they would be kicked out. But they are dumb and they did it either ways. So its them not you.

However, if you put yourself in person X's perspective, you were doing everything right. You were a great tenant, you were paying rent, taking care of the house, and even got attached to the house, knowing fully that there was a high chance of you being kicked out.

I guess people are just dumb that way.

All airlines I took within Schengen zone in the last 5 years or so required IDs matching the boarding pass at the gates. On some you aren't 100% positive they read them correctly, on some the attendant is reading out loud names on both the pass/computer and the passeport, I guess to force themselves to really check.

Various companies but mostly cheap ones: Easyjet, Vueling, Transavia, Ryanair...

I have been using this for a while, great project!

Though something that annoyed me with the recent v1 release is that it changed the default repository where it pulls the package definitions from Nix's official to a fork made by the author.

That is dangerous and also lags behind an incredibly active and large upstream.

If you want to patch things, use proper Nix overrides or apply the patches using devenv code, don't fork a +80,000-big rolling release package repository.

I'll add that, as someone who likes seeing the brush strokes in a painting up close, I'd enjoy being able to touch the texture of the painting (if it was allowed and this didn't damage the painting, which sadly it does).
from the documentation, it is not clear to me what shape the posix subsystem has. It might be a library.

thor seems to be an actual "bottleneck".
2 GPUs works fine too, as long as your model fits. Using different GPUs with same VRAM however, is highly highly sketchy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. In any case, it would be limited by the performance of the slower GPU.
It was interesting to see GPT4 fail at it: https://chat.openai.com/share/02c12bbe-43cd-40da-b5df-33681d...

Honestly I always preferred to be doing something than sitting in a room listening to lectures.

"In literally every domain neural networks have been utilized in you reach asymptotic level diminishing returns."

Is that true, though? I think of "grokking", where long training runs result in huge shifts in generalization, only with orders of magnitude more training after training error seemed to be asymptotically low.

This'd suggest both that there's not that asymptotic limit you refer to - something very important is happening much later - and that there are potentially some important paths to generalization on lower amounts of training data that we haven't yet figured out.
Apple can create them. They have the resources and can hire or acquire the expertise. And 512 GB should be more than enough for GPT-4 performance. We have invented a whole lot of techniques to reduce RAM requirements since GPT-4 was trained. Of course, GPT-5 and GPT-6 will come out and be better, but even just GPT-4 level performance will be enough for useful applications. And we will undoubtedly continue to discover ways to get better performance with less RAM. We've barely started optimizing these things.
True. The ratio still seems reasonable though.
> perfect balance doesn’t always equal fun

The Fireball spell in D&D is a third-level spell, which means a spellcaster can get access to it at level 5. Compared to other third-level spells, and the power curve as a whole, fireball is overpowered since it does a large amount of damage over a large area, but it exists in the space it does because it's such an iconic and evocative spell/ability that feels so fun to use when it really hits that the designers want people to take it and use it.

That is to say, the spell is so fun to use (which I can confirm) that it's worth being unbalanced if it means more players get to experience it.
This seems really common to be honest. I wouldn't be surprised if there are shops specifically aimed at doing this. I have followed a few indie games where this has happened. Its seems really risky to do a PC only release now, because its only a matter of time before it gets stolen and put on mobile if you are even only moderately successful.

What shocks me is it seems like small creators can have their work destroyed by a single DMCA complaint, but blatant copies like this are ignored.
Thank you for improving it and taking feedback well. Now it’s a product I’d consider using.

There may be further value in providing ATS capability to recruiters — a tool that maybe sorts hundreds of resumes by various criteria a recruiter inputs. Such a tool could also highlight blind spots — “many candidates mention X, Y, and Z”, “This candidate stands out because A and B”. Such work would need to be done very responsibly, however.
It makes money for YC, by publicising YC, and allowing YC-funded startups to post job ads that don’t follow the same rules as other posts.

The H1B guys may undercut US talent, but not by nearly as much as they undercut us when they're still living overseas!

Countries like India are developing a lot of talent and most companies are building strategies to hire there. If we can bring the best talent over consistently, than they can help us to keep the standards highest in the US, and justify our salaries.
One can certainly hope that!

Most companies tell you the name of the tickets you purchase must absolutely match the name on your ID, so no you can't just not carry it if you are flying.

So it really depends on airlines AND departure/destination laws. Like if you are flying in or out of Spain, I am 100% positive you need your ID.
The law, hopefully.

Onshoring is mostly happening because the disruption due to factory/port COVID lockdowns in China, and then all the issues with ports and canals domestically, made it quite clear that the long distance transpacific supply chain cannot be the only option. At least with Mexico and Canada there are dozens of land crossings that can be diverted to. And if you cannot sell for six months due to supply issues but your competitor can you may as well be a sitting duck.

...plundering land that wasn't theirs. The native americans were wealthy and we took their wealth. That's textbook plunder.

I don't think P2P is very relevant for inference. It's important for training. Inference can just be sharded across GPUs without sharing memory between them directly.
My dream language/environment would be something that is ubiquitous, has a straight-forward learning curve, has a REPL, and empowers dev productivity - like python - but then, if i should choose, there would be an additional straight-forward path for me to push my code thhough some compilation process in order to supercharge the performance/speed of my code - like Go or Rust, etc...Basically let me choose to employ my code as a (dynamic) script, or compiled code...sort of like some hybrid of python and Go, or python and rust, etc. but combined into a single lang./env. :-)
> But it's interesting that there's no widely recognized fine art medium where physically feeling is the core communicated experience

Because “fine art” is mostly a distinction drawn based on how distant a thing is from practical, tactile experience fornthe audience (its also why culinary arts aren't, contrary to your list, usually included), anchored in elitism that equates physical engagement as pedestrian and lower class.

If you can't put a “do not touch” sign on it, its viewed as practical art and not fine art.
It’s fairly trivial to treat Google’s crawler differently if you want. https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/...

The point here is to poison the well for freeloaders like OpenAI not to actually prevent web crawlers. OpenAI will actually pay for access to good training data, don’t hand it over for free.

People don’t mindlessly click on things like terms of service crawlers are quite dumb. Little need for an arms race, as the people running these crawlers rarely put much effort into any one source.
RockChip's ARM SoC's are quite fast actually. I run a couple of OrangePi 5Bs which work quite nicely.

Mind you these are 4+4 bigLITTLE systems with 35 degrees C idle without any tuning and passive cooling. Huawei is also quite improved on hardware reliability and design department in the last years, so there's no need for concern for them.

They still need a Infiniband equivalent network layer for HPC, though.

It can make a difference when using tensor parallelism to run small batch sizes. Not a huge difference like training because we don't need to update all weights, but still a noticeable one. In the current inference engines there are some allreduce steps that are implemented using nccl.
