Nope, i’m describing prompt 1. The output of the model is a distribution over tokens, which is then sampled by the system to get the next word/token. This is what people mean when they talk about the logits in these models. So if you ask it for one single sample, you hope it might give you a logit vector that corresponds to 80% ‘left’ token and 20% ‘right’ token (assuming those words are single tokens, but it all still works otherwise, but is less concise to explain). When it then autocompletes, it samples from that distribution (a weighted coin flip, in your terms).

So it’s just neat that the weights in the coin flip don’t match what is asked for.
Fractional AI | Founding Engineer | San Francisco | Onsite | Full-time

Who: We're Fractional AI -- the dev shop for difficult enterprise applications of genAI.

Looking for: You! Full-stack founding engineers (5+ years of experience, 150k-210k cash, meaningful equity, 99% healthcare premium coverage )

How: apply https://jobs.lever.co/fractional or reach out to me (annie@ fractional.ai)

Why we may be a great fit:

-High impact AI projects - we work on companies' hardest problems to get genAI into production (in the same quarter you might build an AI phone agent for one customer and automate a complex workflow for another customer)

-Culture of a startup but substantive problems to solve that impact millions of users

- Curious, humble, banter-y in-person team comprised of multi-time founders

Why we may not be the best fit:

-Excellence isn't really really important to you (this is less of a 'move fast and break things' role, though we respect that ethos!)

-Predictability is important to you - we work across customers, tech stacks, industries etc

-Interacting with customers isn't your thing
Assuming that framework is true - which I’m not challenging at all -, why would you need to _fire_ the builders, instead of pivoting them to new greenfields projects - as I assume Tesla has many.

I believe in most of the arrangements the police are getting free access. Walmart decides to pay for a couple cameras at a few thousand per year and Walmart gets access to the data with the option to share it. So it’s even stickier since the police are not paying for it.

Ruby has that... But you're then just implementing your own transpiler or interpreter in full, instead of "just" redefining parts of the grammar. I'm not sold in this approach, but it's an interesting read at least.

I found this book, which traces the surprisingly long and fascinating history of using immunotherapy to treat cancer up to the present day, well, fascinating:

The Breakthrough: Immunotherapy and the Race to Cure Cancer - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Breakthrough:_Immunotherap...

My uncle died of a glioblastoma, and shortly after I read this book, I was myself diagnosed with cancer (treated conventionally, hopefully cured). Immunotherapies like mRNA vaccines seem to be our best hope for finding reliable, permanent cures for a lot of different cancers. I am sorry that for many of our loved ones, a cure will have come too late.
The Communications Decency Act could pretty easily be removed or revised to exclude protections once companies modify or decide how user provided content is shared.

In my opinion, the 25 year old law was never reasonably meant to protect algorithmic content curation but was meant for things like blogs and forums. It seems much more reasonable to clarify that rather than assume social media is a public utility.
Yes, private in the sense of "block public access" (your second point) (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/access...)

All cross-platform frameworks are somewhat underdelivering on their promises. Even if you get an app going quickly, you end up in some kind of maintenance hell a few months down the road.

This is a 3rd party framework on top of .NET (which itself is a 3rd party on mobile) which is 2 layers of abstraction on top of the actual thing that will run on the user's device. Microsoft takes a full year to update their GitHub runners with the latest macOS and Xcode versions, can you imagine the risk of having to wait for so many parties to update/fix their things?

Flutter and RN are not immune to this effect, every year when there is a new iOS or Android release, existing apps just break and tooling takes quite some time to catchup. It's so many side quests suddenly appearing without added value for the developer or the user.
So you have Trirepo, not monorepo.
That thread just makes me believe srid even more. Salient point here:

"Evidently, Srid's concerns and values, as well as the recommendations and compromises he proposed in response to the charges, were casually dismissed, while other members' concerns and values, as well as their calls for his punishment and sanction, were disproportionately elevated.

And that's unfortunate."
> Json columns are really useful. When prototyping applications in sqlite or postgres you can just dump everything into a json column, and as things begin to cool down and stabilise, you can migrate them into their own column.

I agree. That's precisely how I've been managing my proof of concept projects, and it's a treat. Previously I used ORMs for the same reason, but they ended up requiring too much extra work to setup and manage.

With JSON columns, it's a matter of getting the JSON payload and store it directly, and fetch the payload and massage it in any way.

If we're already getting JSON inputs and sending JSON outputs, spending time adding and managing a whole new component to map to/from an intermediate format is something that's very hard to justify.

Here is what you typically do if you use vanilla React in Web context from scratch:

1. You define a function (or in your example a class) which calls React.createElement(...) one or more times and returns the result.

2. You set up the initial DOM as needed.

3. You call ReactDOM (another library, separate from React) and give it your function as callback.

4. ReactDOM sets up the main loop that handles updates to DOM when things change.

You can claim that ReactDOM’s reconciler “owns” the flow, but you have to keep in mind that reconciler is not part of React proper, that you are the one who calls it in the first place, and that React does not provide a reconciler of its own or impose any constraints whatsoever on the structure of your project or what you use to render things in the end or where (it could be not even DOM at all).

I imagine most people who think of vanilla React as a framework go with CRA or another template that brings in the boilerplate code, bundler configurations that make JSX magically work, etc., and acts as a sort-of-almost-framework (not a particularly good one, perhaps), which obscures the fact that React itself is merely a very generic library.
As mentioned elsewhere I think they do themselves a disservice by starting there, instead of starting with a reasonable set of delimiters etc., and then referring to an aside that explains how to bootstrap to that point. The lowest levels get too esoteric for most.

It's a bit like being taught functional programming by starting with composing everything from combinators, including church numerals for numbers. Sure, knowing those bits is worthwhile theory, but not until you're convinced about the higher level utility.

Honestly, this feels very Forth-y just with a finer grained control over tokenization. It would be cool if you could compare and contrast the two. Because in Forth I can redefine dictionary words and have control over parsing much like Cognition. Your bootstrapping looks very similar to the scaffold building you do in Forths in using primitives to define higher level words. Cognition even has implicit stacks. Are you sure you didn't just invent a new flavor of Forth?

MRNA's for aggressive cancers are going to do some amazing things. This is one example of "death sentence" cancer being stopped cold. To that end, the trade offs for MRNA's make complete sense. It's a great place to do long terms studies and see what happens down stream.

What covid did prove out is that there IS risk. https://www.health.gov.au/our-work/covid-19-vaccines/advice-...

Biologics (what vaccines are) are weird. The FDA should be stepping back from restricting the use of these on INFORMED patients who have limited other choices and mandating the long term study that we need for this class of treatments. IF were extending peoples lives and finding those secondary a tertiary risks in patents who would have otherwise died we will all benefit in the long run.

> Or Linux / glibc / musl, sure, why not. Some people (no, not me) want to run Linux w/o systemd. The point is that a sudo replacement service should be fairly portable to the universe of UNIX/Unix/BSD/Linux.

This fetish of "everything should just stick with libc and POSIX" needs to go. These standards have not evolved at all, they are decades behind and don't even remotely cover the necessary requirements for implementing a "sudo replacement service". Just stick with sudo then.
How fast do you set speech playback speed/rate?

I tried a bunch of speech synthesis, with speed and intelligibility in mind.

ESpeakng-ng barely intelligible past ~500 words per minute, and just generally unpleasant to listen to. Maybe my brain just can't acclimatize to it.

Microsoft Zira Mobile (unlock on win11 desktop via regex) sounds much more natural and intelligible at max windows SAPI speech rate, which I estimate is around ~600 and equivalent to most conversation/casual spoken word at 2x speed. I wish windows could increase playback even further, my brain can process 900-1200 words per minute or 3x-4x normal playback speed.

On Android, Google's "United States - 1" sounds a little awkward but also intelligible at 3x-4x speed.
Why specifically do you consider it to be bad? Espeak-ng is primarily an accessibility tool, used as the voice synthesizer for screen readers. Clarity at high speed is more important than realism.

This made me scratch my head:

> Even in a language like Rust, which has not yet implemented mutable aliasing (an oft-requested feature stuck at the RFC stage)

Disallowing mutable aliasing is in fact the whole point of Rust. Perhaps it’s “requested” by people still learning the language? Is the “not yet implemented” part meant as irony? Does the author mean something else?
This is a fantastic proof of concept project that answers a question I've been asking: what if there was another language that was designed to fit between Go and Rust? Ideas?
SEEKING WORK | Remote (based in Germany)

I'm an exprienced full-stack web developer and entrepreneur. I'm currently bootstrapping my start-up and looking for freelance work to pay the bills. My home turf is Ruby on Rails (> 10 years of experience), but I also feel comfortable in the JavaScript universe (JS, TS, React, React Native, etc.).

Previously, I have co-founded a startup as CTO with 40 employees and $10M in yearly revenue. I love working with small teams and getting my hands dirty, but could also take over as interim CTO. Additionally, I bring to the table a very user and product-focused way of working.

What horror show exactly are you imagining that you think this isn't easily, on its own, bad enough that Boeing should be immediately shut down, its shareholders zeroed and possibly sued, and its managers - if not arrested pending trial¹ - then at least universally barred from ever running a company again?

I mean, I think Microsoft is a deeply damaging company and should have been split up at the least, but heck, at least Bill Gates has never had an employee murdered. I didn't know this was even in the cards for modern-day multinationals that are not, say, the Mafia. One assumes that, as a company gets big, it distances itself from the criminal actions of individual leaders and develops protocols to handle problems. Apparently at Boeing, these protocols include felonies and also murder. How is this not, blatantly, a criminal enterprise that you've for some reason left in charge of a massive part of public transportation, instead of in jail?

It seems to me like Boeing is American Wirecard. And that led, eventually, to arrests and a government inquiry into its own failure to do anything sooner. I expect no less from America, and I think its citizens should demand it.

This is disappointing. I think we need more clinic options, and Walmarts are everywhere.

Perhaps Walmart could restart health care on a smaller scale, with nurse practitioner consultations in a pay-as-you go model, similar their (successful) optometrist services.

Hopefully CVS/Aetna will continue and expand its clinic options.
Option types as error handling works but it requires proper syntax. Haskell can do it with do-notation and Rust has its special ? operator. Go has boiler-plate.

I find it funny that a blogpost claiming to be about the “scientific method” spends 4000 words to try to convince its readers of a wordplay, using analogies and metaphors.

(Yes “consciousness is an illusion” is a wordplay. If you claim it’s a scientific theory, then what does it predict?)
I'm sure the commenter loves their cat - enough to endure the claw pokes and keep snuggling, at least!
What I find concerning about these discussions on what qualifies as science and what doesn't is the excessive arrogance displayed by some writers, as if they stand on the same esteemed ground as the countless individuals throughout history who have propelled scientific progress and shaped the technological world we live in today. Science is a remarkable collective effort of humanity, and it is crucial that we continue to allocate resources to this endeavor.

If anything, studying the history of science would open one's eyes to the fact that the methodologies and approaches that have resulted in a vast reservoir of knowledge have not followed a linear or consistent path throughout time.

There's a quote from his first blog post titled "A Clean-Sheet Introduction to the Scientific Method" that is unironically portraying science as a human endeavour somehow relieved of everything that made "religion" bad.

> Let me start with the easy part: By "religious beliefs" I do not mean to imply that science is a religion in the usual sense. It isn't. Religions generally involve things like the worship of deities, respect for the authority of revealed wisdom, and the carrying out of prayer and rituals. Science has none of that, not because science rejects these things a priori, but because when you pursue science you are invariably (but not inevitably!) led to the conclusion that there are no deities active in our universe, and therefore no good reason to accept the authority of revealed wisdom, and hence not much point spending valuable time on prayer and ritual

Science as an insistution has all those hallmarks: worship, authority and rituals. I'm not trying to make a case for religion here, but wanted to point out the shallowness of the whole write-up. I wish these science preaching guys would actually engage in more science worthy attitudes and be a bit more humble in their holistic assessment of what does and what doesn't constitute science.

Anything goes! would Paul Feyerabend say.

The frame data is still stored on the stack with the parameters being passed residing in the first part of the locals section of the frame, that way as the values already residing on the stack can overlap into the next stack frame. The spec doesn't specify that is has to be this way, so technically stack frames can be in non contiguous memory but afaik this is not common.
Your schema doesn’t account for companies that only have a management tack or an ic track with no opportunity for someone to sometimes lead teams and sometimes make technical decisions. I think you’ll find it’s better if you simply encompass the natural numbers.
