You can get a feel for how it works in this [section][1] of the wikipedia article. Have to know what things like "mass term" mean, though, so there's quite a lot of background required.

Why do I want a general purpose robot?

Why do you want a smart phone, instead of the telephone, contact book, camera, clock, alarm clock, radio, mail, credit card and so on?
I never understood the idea of having Perseverance collect rocks. Collecting rocks wasn't the hard part. Anything capable of getting to Mars and then returning to Earth would be able to do some rock collecting in the process.

I'd always assumed I was wrong about that, and it was somehow a significant benefit to having them pre-collected. But I wonder what else we could have added to Perseverance if they'd omitted the rock collector.
Isn't equating active parameters with cost a little unfair since you still need full memory for all the inactive parameters?
I think this is an absolutely horrible thing for the environment. My point was to make a testament to the human will, and also to counter arguments that try to wield the cost of accessibility against people with disabilities. We could make a global network of ships, planes, and cars, so why is making a tiny ramp such a big deal afterwards?
Thats fair. I guess I am biased with one of the initial story that described the genesis of the product during a cliff top retreat on Benioff's property. All the hype, the demonstrations, but the actual product falls flat of any real functionality. There is a disconnect between the hype they sold and what they released. That is scam territory.
Today. Might change tomorrow at the pace this sector is at.
Yikes, that’s some bad code. What’s the point of using tailwind if half the elements have their own custom CSS classes attached?
"64K tokens context window" I do wish they had managed to extend it to at least 128K to match the capabilities of GPT-4 Turbo

Maybe this limit will become a joke when looking back? Can you imagine reaching a trillion tokens context window in the future, as Sam speculated on Lex's podcast?
Putting the lives of your family and yourself at risk by involving police would be incredibly irresponsible.
Sure, though I can't cite the source off hand, I remember the statistic being something like a bachelor's degree of any kind increases earnings by roughly 17k. It's very hard to consider this anything other than a bargain for the average bachelor's student, interest included. AFAIR the stats show that the people who are truly destroyed are the ones who get loans but don't get the piece of paper.
> I really did not want offend you tbh. but i talked to a lot of people regarding EVs.

You accused me of trolling when I said that I believe people are good in general and that you shouldn't force them to do anything. I think you shouldn't be surprised if that comes across as an offense.

> Most people care somehow but not enough at all to risk anything. They are even afraid of 'new technology'.

You need to make it attractive for people. Think about the risk/reward here. People are not dumb. They know that investing into new technology comes with a risk per se from experience. They also know that their investment has a slim chance of doing anything to reduce global CO2 emissions because many other factors are at play here. Then, it's not even clear how much of that makes for the current warming. So you need to give them something which is an obvious benefit with regard to their current life situation. If you have access to charging at home, solar panels, and an EV, that's a financial benefit that doesn't need much more explaining. Now you need to find a way to make that accessible to everyone. Better charging infrastructure, increasing range, and bringing down the cost of the technology is key and it takes time.
It weighs 40 kilos.

I owned one, but I didn't want to. My 21" Trinitron blew up in the final month of its 5-year warranty and they didn't have a way to replace it so they sent me the 24". Crazy, must have cost a fortune for them just to ship it.
My perspective is that emphasizing that the US is a "republic" and not a "democracy" is not just to be pedantic (certainly they enjoy being pedantic) but to underline that the US system is not set up to be a majority rule. All the wolves can't vote to eat the sheep for dinner type of thing.

Personally, I get suspicious when elected leaders start talking about the powers they need to fight the "threats to our democracy".

Worth revisiting is the CGP Grey video "Rules for Rulers": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rStL7niR7gs

I don't always know what "politically incorrect" is being used as a euphemism for but banning mosques seems straightforwardly bad to me idk I guess I'm just a woke dumbass hey.
There's this trope that most bosses are this curious mix of idiot, sadist, and fat cat blueblood completely incapable of reason, who produces nothing of value, and just sits around thinking of ways to make things harder on the engineers.

Most people are reasonable, including people who happen to be managers. Most people will listen to you if you make informed, persuasive arguments. And even when they don't, most people will be able to articulate to you a perfectly valid reason why the thing you want to do can't happen, or can't happen yet.
Aggressive Pokémon Gameplay Highlights Prompting Hurdles and Promise for LLMs
Virtually every announcement of a new model release has some sort of table or graph matching it up against a bunch of other models on various benchmarks, and they're always selected in such a way that the newly-released model dominates along several axes.

It turns interpreting the results into an exercise in detecting which models and benchmarks were omitted.
I used LXQT for a week or so as a daily driver while I was picking envs (eventually landing on i3), and I found LXQT to be buggy and lacking. That was, oh maybe 3 years ago though. So assuming steady development, I hope it’s gotten better.

It’s also maybe not fair that this was on a dell laptop that didn’t play particularly nicely with Linux.
not that massive, we're talking six figures. There was a blogpost about this a while back on the startpage of HN.
That uncanny valley effect tho..
Absolutely wild the number of people in the comments on the original Reddit thread who earnestly think OP should call the police to report human remains.
But all of those things directly affect their every day lives. Your experience and the assumptions you've drawn are not representative for large swaths of america.
It needs NTVDM/VM86 (the 16-bit wrapper in WoW) to run DOS code. Since Microsoft didn't want to code up an emulator (you can't run 16-bit code natively in long mode) to support 80s/early 90s code, it was just dropped with the 64-bit transition.
How much vram is need to run this?
gotta cherry pick your benchmarks as much as possible
Depends on how good the Framework is.
Radix-Themes has generalised components that compose well and exposes design tokens that I would consider best-best practices in any app.

On the other end of that spectrum is Ant.Design. It feels like a constant fight against the framework, with a scattershot approach of poorly thought out and overly specific components that are hard to configure to your needs.
I'm really excited about this model. Just need someone to quantize it to ~3 bits so it'll run on a 64GB MacBook Pro. I've gotten a lot of use from the 8x7b model. Paired with llamafile and it's just so good.
Yup, though as a counter, police academies really focus on the ability to generate PC (probable cause). It’s a highly prized skill.

Something hanging from a mirror, a broken tail light, out of spec window tint, child seat improperly secured, load improperly secured, weaving in the lane, driving too slow for conditions, too fast for conditions, driving inconsistent speeds, not properly signaling, failure to maintain your vehicle in a safe condition (bald tires), illegally modified emissions controls (exhausts), using a cell phone while driving, etc.

Also, speedometers are notoriously out of calibration, and no one is going to believe the driver when they say they were going x speed without some evidence.

The vehicle code is huge, and it’s a rare driver that can’t be pulled over for something. ‘Fishing’ is a common activity that catches a lot of drug smuggling, people on warrants, DUI, etc.

Speed traps also generate a lot of revenue for many departments, depending on state laws.

If you look like you keep your nose clean, you’ll usually get left alone though, unless they’re bored.

I’ve personally had at least 2 instances where I was driving on rural highways at night, and was followed for 15+ minutes by police trying to find a reason to pull me over so they could search me though. They both let me go after it was obvious I wasn’t a drug smuggler or DUI.
That hardly seems like an ideal. Many people, perhaps the majority, are simply not suited to college.

While I am aware of the research on neurological development I think some people are too ready to use that as an excuse for immature behavior. When Horatio Nelson was 19 he was already the commanding officer of a warship, leading men in combat and doing a pretty good job of it. And I don't believe he was really unique; many young people are capable of taking on adult responsibilities when necessity thrusts it upon them.
Good point, cancelling concurrent actions that started another concurrent actions is extremely complicated. I don't think humans can solve it efficiently in real life. There is usually a mess left behind if plans are reverted or changed significantly.
For dimly-lit environments, the human eye's peak sensitivity for scoptopic vision is around 498nm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotopic_vision) which is blueish-green.
I don't have any hard evidence but anecdotally I can say that when Snowden, Cambridge Analytica, and really anything else in this space happens nobody I talk to outside of tech workers really cares. Most responses I get are jokes along the line of "of you mean they'll see the $15 in my bank account and offer to pay my electric?".
> If nothing else, NPR makes decisions about which externally produced shows to license. In the end, NPR deserves all the credit / responsibility for what it broadcasts.

But NPR doesn't broadcast anything - your local affiliate does. And they have complete discretion on whether to broadcast anything NPR gives them.
Perhaps some kind of insurance that pays for “fake” transactions. Industry members chip in to fund an insurance company. The insurance company would do business with a variety of companies from a variety of different “shell” companies, and appear normal to any observers, but its main purpose would be to provide reviews.
Check out the STALKER modding scene, it appears to be going through a renaissance right now, with lots of standalones being made. And then there is STALKER GAMMA, which gives even modern AAA games a run for their money with its gameplay, features and even visuals.
That’s an interesting idea. What evidence do you have for it other than your personal belief?
Minarets. Another referendum - in fact the first one ever to be accepted since the reconstitution of Switzerland as a federal state post-Napoleon - banned kosher/halal slaughtering of animals (at the time it was directed against Jews, not Muslims). The ban stands to this day.
Yes, so this is where the brains and effort (and time, forgot time) come in.

The anecdotes in your links (that I read - can't get through all of them right now) have a common theme, which is that people died because they either needed very expensive and/or experimental treatment that probably would not be affordably provided to them under any plausible healthcare system, or else they got a bill, decided they couldn't pay it, and did without or tried to self-ration their healthcare.

The correct course of action in that case is to call the healthcare provider and negotiate A) a 90+% discount and B) a payment plan, both of which are pretty readily available in the American system. You have to know that's possible, and you shouldn't have to, but it is possible. Then you reach out to the charities, government programs, and/or nonprofits from my original link to cover what you still can't afford. Same deal if you get screwed by an insurance company as in the Guardian article.

This is, again, not something I'm trying to defend. It's not the way a sane healthcare system would run. But it is a system that works, more or less, for those who know how to work within it.
Voting behavior can be easily hacked as one can see in world elections. Its not for nothing you have analyst, advisors or other sort of experts in the field of electioneering.
Sorry for the non technical, but the comments in that YouTube video have significant LOL value.

That said ... resumes are 65-70% "reality" and 30-35% "dark magic"

Every country is different (I can really only speak well to US, Singapore, and maybe Canada & Great Britain) in their expectations

And even inside a given country, some industries are different from others - ran into this a few months ago personally where I was asked for a highly-customized resume (which, in general, I think (and have observed) is incredibly bad advice) for a very specific role

I maintain a single resume for 'everyone' - https://warrenmyers.com/resume.pdf (which ... happens to be slightly out of date)

I focus on my experience that I want to be asked about (and deprecate/hide experience I do not wish to be asked about)

I keep my last few years' experience on the first page, along with [relevant] things I have written, core competencies, certifications, and education (though ... that should probably move to page 2 (or later) for me (since I finished my most-recent degree 17+y ago))
That’s a false dichotomy. Once a vulnerability is found (or manufactured), the attacker can patch their own systems while continuing to exploit other vulnerable systems.
Yes it's pretty cool. There was a neat comparison of deep learning development that I think resonates quite well here.

Around 5 years ago, it took a lambda user some pretty significant hardware, software and time (around a full night), to try to create a short deepfake. Now, you don't need any fancy hardware and you can have some decent results within 5 min on your average computer.

After that report a few weeks ago saying they literally can't afford to pay their AWS bills I would guess it's the latter.

> By October 2023, Stability would have less than $4 million left in the bank [...] Stability was "underpaying AWS bills for July (by $1M)" and "not planning to pay AWS at the end of October for August usage ($7M)." Then there were the September and October bills, plus $1 million owed to Google Cloud and $600,000 to GPU cloud data center CoreWeave [...] Stability was on track to lose more money per month than it made in an entire year.
With any game that offers crafting and deconstruction, I max out my deconstruction options. It lets me think less about resources themselves, and more about what to do.

For Cyberpunk, this meant that I had 'infinite money' by buying out every 10e priced beverage from vending machines, shredding them, and profiting on the resale value of the components. Not sure if that's been changed, but it was a FANTASTIC source of money and materials.

I think the other comment is more accurate: this isn’t about polarization, it’s a potential threat to your safety.
That's fair enough, and while I think we do have free speech I respect you saying that it's not obvious, and it's very possible I'd think the same on digging into the things you reference.

However, the main point I was making is that a refutation without evidence is a valid response to a statement made without evidence (which is what the comment you replied to was).

Having a higher burden of proof doesn't make sense to me.

[EDIT I just reread your comment, and noticed you said "you". I just wanted to point out it was someone else you were replying to before]
Oh no, my old enemies, the stairs!
People, especially the younger generations, are already too cynical. A lot of them don't seem to believe anyone does anything on the Internet except to make money. I find that profundly depressing.
I've seen in history classes that people wondered why didn't anyone protest IBMs involvement with Nazi Germany at the time.

Well, since it affects inference speed it means you can handle more in less time, needing less concurrency.

This Reddit thread from someone with early access has some sample images: https://old.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1c2je28/i_...

Maybe the early access beta was limiting the available resources, or they used bad settings, bud juding by that thread it looks like the model got worse during training or the earlier examples were quite cherry-picked.
Does anyone have a good layman's explanation of the "Mixture-of-Experts" concept? I think I understand the idea of having "sub-experts", but how do you decide what each specialization is during training? Or is that not how it works at all?
There is something weirdly naive and arrogant about the way this works.
Yes; or well:

void step_bar(state *state)
{
state.x = state.s + 1
return step_foo(state)
}

This is where the single dispatch OOP with implicit class-scoped "self" reduces noise:

void state::step_bar()
{
x = s + 1;
return step_foo();
}

You have the tail calls, all variables in one place: x is always the same x.
You know which variables are being set in each state transition; no need to look through parameter positions in function definitions.
These LLMs are making RAM great again.

Remember: pretty much everything you see is in service of someone's business model.
It would make sense, wouldn't it? Just as we've seen rising fuel efficiency, safety, dependability, etc. over the lifecycle of a particular car model.

The different teams are learning from each other and pushing boundaries; there's virtually no reason for any of the teams to release a model or product that is somehow inferior to a prior one (unless it had some secondary attribute such as requiring lower end hardware).

We're simply not seeing the ones that came up short; we don't even see the ones where it fell short of current benchmarks because they're not worth releasing to the public.
There are loads of those already. For chucking together something decent quickly we need more 'block' level components than elements.

I tried not to buy flowbite but it just speeds things up so much, it's a no-brainer. This is in a similar vein and will be ok for some less discerning use cases.

(Clarification: pasting text results in a picture as an attachment. Didn't mean to imply that pasting would actually take a snapshot of the screen.)

The fact that the models ignored the "less switching" instructions (and rationalized doing it) is fascinating. And "panic switching" in general.
Well yes. There's always a robot that can be specifically made to handle a specific task in the most efficient way possible.

But the fact is, the world has mostly been built by humans for humans. Pretty much any task you can think of can be accomplished by a human with their arms, legs and some tools.

A generalised robot would look like a human.
