> While I'm not always thrilled that about the amount of monitoring United States Government does, as a United States Citizen, my government is at least marginally accountable to me - if enough of us are bothered by this policy, we can choose to elect representatives who will change it.

On the other hand it's our own ostensibly accountable government that we have to worry about violating our freedoms, abusing and misinterpreting this data, targeting innocent people, etc. If China has this kind of data they still have no power to throw me in prison (provided that I stay out of China) and very little impact on my day to day life. I'm still not happy about them collecting my data, but I have much less to fear from it.

Technically you could, but it would take much longer to do all that swapping.
There's an additional problem: the US has little appetite for risking its own lives right now. For good or ill, the US spent two decades in military projects that are widely considered failures. Or at the very least, they failed to establish objectives at the beginning, and never clarified it.

Going into Ukraine purely as a "defensive" effort would create another indefinite war. And maybe that's the right thing, but right now a lot of Americans aren't prepared to commit to that. They'll send money, and weapons, but not put people in harm's way without a clear indicator of what they have to do to get out.
I'd rather the article was more precisely titled "manslaughter" rather than "homicide." As much as in legal jargon, homicide encompasses manslaughter, murder, and a few other things, to many people, homicide is synonymous with murder.
I think that it really depends on your relationship with music. I’m no longer in my 30s and still find new music all the time.

I wonder why parents consistently listening to older music than their childless peers
Now Medias like Videos and Image from Tweets can be downloaded easily
I see what you're saying in terms of additional motivation to find new music.

But, is your average person's relationship with music "one of consumption" in such a way that causes stagnation? This comes off as gatekeepy. People may not make their own music, but I imagine many people listen to music as a form of inspiration.
I have been using Twitter (Now X) since 2019.

One of my latest gigs was on Third-Party Security. For years and years companies (especially banks) were giving little to no attention to third-party security/privacy. I've happily seen that over the past 5 years most (mega-big) banks have taken it "all the way up to 11".

Hackers are smart people, why hack company X with 50 people on their SOC and not hack a vendor that is lazy and clumsy? (and in some cases it's 5 guys with laptops behind a cheap never-hardened router in some random country)
It's also a great load to support with renewables because you can always do training as "bulk operations" on the margins.

Just do them when renewable supply is high and demand is low; that energy can't be stored and would have been wasted anyway.

Age has affected my taste in music, but I continue to discover new music as I reach my mid 40s. As a teenager, I wanted to listen to grunge, punk, and metal. In my 20s, I had a strong preference for indie music. In my 30s, I got into blues and American folk music. Now, I’m in a jazz phase and appreciating classic guitarists from the 1950s and 1960s. I have always loved classical music, and I still appreciate a lot of the music from my past decades of development, but I hear a lot of it filtered through nostalgia and historical experiences more than from an angle of objective enjoyment.
There are plenty of situations where total blame adds up to less than 100%, where multiple people make honest mistakes.

This situation is the opposite of that, because multiple people were knowingly reckless.

I was fortunate to be able to watch Stainless evolve while at Mux when we were evaluating it to replace open source & homegrown generators. Alex & team were incredibly responsive to feedback throughout, and the product improved quickly.

Generated code has a bad rap for results that are not idiomatic or user-friendly, but I think it's clear that it doesn't have to be that way—getting it right just takes a lot of care and effort that is typically overlooked.

Stainless is definitely best-in-class here as far as I've seen.

Wrong. MoE models like this one usually chose a different and unpredictable mix of experts for each token, and as such you need all parameters at memory at once.

It lessens the number of parameters that need to be moved from memory to compute chip for each token, not from disk to memory.
I've had some issues with compiling extension that didn't have a wheel(I was using an older python version needed to support older library versions) and being required to install clang and then some hard to debug header missing issues. But after reinstalling clang versions several times and removing rye caches manually it worked. Changing CC=gcc did try to use gcc which has other issues when compiling. I think a lot of this has to do with fundamental issues with compiled extensions in Python that happens on any package manager when you don't have wheels.

Well, some kind of scallions anyway.
We've recently evaluated all four platforms—Stainless, Fern, Speakeasy, and Liblab—and here are our key takeaways:

Stainless: The standout for maturity and idiomatic code generation. While method signatures across products may look the same, Stainless shines during developing & debugging - making their codebase easier to navigate. They have a practical separation of SDK configuration from OpenAPI specification, setting it apart from others reliant on OpenAPI overlays. The Stainless Studio also proved invaluable for refining our OpenAPI specs during our exploration phase.

Fern: Notable for being open-source, though not free. It provides a robust end-to-end Developer Experience, covering everything from SDKs and documentation to Postman collections. Fern uses an internal "Fern Definition" language (~ think Smithy), it's optional and enables capabilities like merging multiple specs, but is adding another layer to navigate in our view.

Speakeasy: Moves at a fast pace, which could be a double-edged sword. Rapid iterations may lead to frequent, potentially disruptive updates for customers. A minor gripe was the inclusion of "Speakeasy" in class names, which felt overly branded.

Liblab: Initially limited in language support, they've expanded but still lag behind in establishing a strong customer base, which might be a red flag for some adopters.

BTW all folks are very approachable and collaborative!
Especially if one were to only run the servers during the daytime, when they can be powered directly from photovoltaics.
It would have been nice to see if the correct answer showed up in the distribution field once in under 1000 runs. For specific information recall like this it isn’t useful if you want immediate answers… but to be given a distribution of outputs can be useful for ideation, broadening perspective, and discovery.

Imagine if when we are given a compressed list of 100 options after 1000 runs, we could suppose there is a high probability 1 of them is the answer we are looking for despite rarely output.

Does anyone know if there has been experiments testing these LLMs for a stable and high probability to surface the right answer after N number of tries across prompts?
I'm closing in on 50s, and what I miss the most out of the music I grew up with are actual cohesive albums that work as a single artistic unit. I think the 70s were the golden age of albums, and then slowly we moved towards the world of albums being just random collections of tracks, with one or two good ones and the rest "filler." Now, do many modern musicians even bother to release albums anymore? Seems like it's just track after track now.
It makes a lot of sense if you're trying to churn out more profit per unit - less costs - they're at the mercy of a sour market atm on the other side of it.
> I criticized a general practice of which this is an example

But it’s an example that clearly disproves the point. The accountability you describe is a communication, not vote structuring, problem.
The artists have made it harder. They've pushed for aggressive one sided fan behavior policies (phone less), they've increased aggressively with the prices, the quality has gone down with many established bands, pushed large shows without building a performance with the space, and they've done a ton of things that don't help their product.

It feels more like greed in the business than an experience.

That being said I'm still sitting on the idea of paying 123$ for cage the elephant show on an album I haven't heard yet.
I vote for letting numbers be literal.
That's the primary thing a contractor does: get breached. They also cost the same as an employee, but are usually less talented or at least less integrated within the organization. Somehow, the moment you become an executive, contractors become an appealing option due to some unknowable black magic.
The two dimensional case is my favorite: let I be the identity matrix and J the "imaginary unit matrix"

0 -1
1 0,

then JJ = -I = exp(Jπ) and exp(Jθ) =

cos(θ) -sin(θ)
sin(θ) cos(θ).
> Quite arguably, Congress deemed the precipitating questions were not "major questions" and expressed as much by delegating to agencies.

That's a tremendous stretch because Congress can be very vague in its delegation of authority and decades later the agencies it delegated power to can interpret anything they want into that language and -because of the oft-repeated point about Congress' disfunction- the agencies can't be stopped.

> Since "major questions" has no concrete definition,

It's like obscenity: you know it when you see it. But it's simpler: if there's a controversy, there's a chance that the issue is a major powers issue, and then you have to look at whether the liberty/economic impact of the regulation is extreme enough that Congress must decide it.
Email without tags or folders works fine on a phone. I barely use it on desktop. You can always make multiple mail addresses.
Static typing information isn't retained at runtime. e.g.

ListInterface list = new ConcreteList();
let runtimeType = GetTypeOf(list); // will be `ConcreteList`, not `ListInterface`

This is an imaginary java-like language, but I'm not aware of a statically typed language that gives you the static type resolutions at run-time, outside of cases like implicit generic resolutions and things like that.

How I did it in 2 steps:

1. Summarization - Though short, microblogs still have lots of non essential info (This paragraph could be a sentence). Summarization gets rid of this.

2. Semantic Similarity Grouping - So many headlines and microblogs are essentially saying the same thing. I only need to see it once.

Would love any feedback.

>I’m not convinced that we stop finding new music, we just become less zealous or outward about it as we get older. When I was young, I was all about talking music, having the right DJ list for roadtrips, etc, etc and now? I just hit play and don’t think too much about it. Probably because it’s harder to attend shows, less relevant to my social life, etc.

Well, older people (40, 50, even 60+) more passionate about music, they still do all of those (going to concerts, discussing music, crafting the right playlist for roadtrips), not unlike like they did in their 20s.

So, yes: most people do care less about music and stop finding new music.
I guess it's because American culture is more focused on property and ownership.

The co-op movement arose as a reaction to industrialization and capitalism, which threatened many workers. You could understand it as capitalism based on membership rather than ownership, or as a third way that's neither capitalism nor socialism. But just like socialism never really took root in the US, other alternatives to capitalism didn't fare that well either.

Honestly a FREE and simple web service for managing subscriptions sounds like a great idea. It could sent out emails every month saying how much you're paying for all your subscriptions, for how long you've been subbed to them, etc.

That's the best thing they could do for fans.
When I lived in South Korea, one of the things that struck me was how much "flatter" the generations there were in terms of pop culture and music taste and awareness, compared to the US. I worked in an office with a bunch of suit-and-tie businessmen who were mostly in their 40s to 60s, and if you were to ask them about any current K-pop group, they all knew their hit songs.
> their generators are not all top notch, and the template-based approach is very hard to contribute to.

I agree, I love them in theory, but wrangling mustache templates is a hassle. They end up super coupled to the code that populates them which makes them a bear to modify.
Any Online Communities on Local/Home AI?
University researcher, and hobbyist AI peddler here.

AI seems to be growing without bounds, and with it, the wealth of opportunities available to us. Although AI isn't locally (being able to effectively run multiple models locally & performantly in a non-commercial setting, say on the average PC) viable just yet, it's pretty clear that its becoming more accessible, through the "trickle-down advancement" effect from corporate AI companies.

I'm seeing a growing surge in the concept of "local-home AI", and here's how I'm picturing it eventually happening:

1. A AI mainframe computer hosting inference for slew of local models from sites like HF, Civit, and other providers, that can be access through other computers to do more daily / privacy-demanding tasks (something you wouldn't drop your info into an API for)
2. Houses can pool together their compute to train distributed models, that are more community scoped. Literally, if you plan to train with your neighbors, figuratively if you'd like to band together to based on a common cause / challenge.

The early stages of this appear to already be commercially viable; Ran the idea by a director at AMD, and he pointed out we can already build 48 GB VRAM machines for ~$5000 (2 RTXx3090) .

Talked with Ion Stoica (founder of Databricks) on the idea, and he pointed out the following things:

- Quantization Techniques: How do we compress / larger scale models down into smaller formats that can be used with house-AI's smaller compute requirments?
- Model Evaluation: There are thousands of models on HuggingFace, how can we figure out which ones are more practically effective for some specific thing, beyond just "this model has 50K monthly downloads and 40K likes on HF" (which mostly seem to be general purpose LLMs at the moment)

What do you think on the general concept? Are there any online communities out there specifically for this niche?
What's the debt though? AT&T has more debt than share value.

That profit is 10% What's the spread between that and the loan repayment rate? What's the Fed rate?

Last I checked, "free market competition" isn't one of the major principles of the american political left.

Speaking as someone who is probably to the left of, say, you in specific, I'm a fan of competition where it makes sense: businesses that are easily replaceable and political candidates, and not where it doesn't make sense: utilities and public schools.
BTW, I wouldn't rate that very high in that it's trying to put out syntactic FORTH, but not defining verbs or other things which themselves tell the story.

Gemini is significantly better last I checked.
Possible confounding factor: they only studied Spotify and Deezer users. This is like studying Kindle users for insights on readers at large. I would not be surprised if there were a correlation between using streaming services (or not) and openness to new music. Study, say, Bandcamp users, and I bet you get a different picture.
> due to some unknowable black magic

That "black magic" is just different budget pools.

Taxpayers and shareholders hate seeing lots of highly paid people on the payroll, so instead, you have very few full time employees (usually managers) that fit within your limited hiring budget dictated from the top to show you're a lean and responsible organization that doesn't waste money, and then you have a lot of even more expensive external contractors to balance your needs that are part of a different budget that's less scrutinized because those are not YOUR employees, they're just soulless bills in an Excel sheet, like the one for catering, cleaning, maintenance, etc. which are rubber stamped and nobody looks at.

Blame our capitalist society for hating to see people on the payroll, assuming it automatically means inefficiency.
You could ask the same questions about Google or Apple or any of the countries that have jurisdiction over them.

The best answer is to make the sensitive parts open source. Then anyone can review it themselves if they're so inclined, including you. And since some software developers and large organizations actually do this, it's difficult to get backdoors into popular projects without anybody noticing.

Notice that the xz attack was detected before it made it into e.g. Debian Stable or the distributions based on it.

The best answer to "who watches the watchers" is everybody. The prerequisite for which is for everybody to be able to see what's going on in the places where there could be something fishy happening.
