for 1 you're thinking like western states which infiltrate Pacific protests with plains cloth offices and start breaking stuff to justify a response. china don't do that. they show up in full force from the get go. branding Pacific forces as terrorists is western view point. so not a goal you should measure their campaign.

What's wrong with Qt? There's also Lazarus (https://www.lazarus-ide.org/) with almost transparent interoperability with C.

They may not be perfect, but in light of their existence, it's hard to argue that there is no real open and cross-platform GUI.

I'll refer you back to this 1990 paper by Geoffrey Hinton. Up to you if you want to investigate this further.

If you can prove this is wrong then you should publish your result.

https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~hinton/absps/AIJmapping.pdf

"This 1990 paper demonstrated how neural networks could learn to represent and reason about part-whole hierarchical relationships, using family trees as the example domain.

By training on examples of family relations like parent-child and grandparent-grandchild, the neural network was able to capture the underlying logical patterns and reason about new family tree instances not seen during training.

This seminal work highlighted that neural networks can go beyond just memorizing training examples, and instead learn abstract representations that enable reasoning and generalization"

> too many ideas that work well, even optimally, at small scale fail horribly at large scale.

Not that I disagree, but I don't think that's a reason to not publish. There's another way to rephrase what you've said

many ideas that work well at small scales do not trivially work at large scales

But this is true for many works, even transformers. You don't just scale by turning up model parameters and data. You can, but generally more things are going on. So why hold these works back because of that? There may be nuggets in there that may be of value and people may learn how to scale them. Just because they don't scale (now or ever) doesn't mean they aren't of value (and let's be honest, if they don't scale, this is a real killer for the "scale is all you need" people)

> Other ideas that work at super specialized settings don’t transfer or don’t generalize.

It is also hard to tell if these are hyper-parameter settings. Not that I disagree with you, but it is hard to tell.

> Correlations in huge multimodal datasets are way more complicated than most humans can grasp and we will not get to AGI before we can have a large enough group of people dealing with such data routinely.

I'm not sure I understand your argument here. The people I know that work at scale often have the worst understanding of large data. Not understanding the differences between density in a normal distribution and a uniform. Thinking that LERPing in a normal yields representative data. Or cosine simularity and orthogonality. IME people that work at scale benefit from being able to throw compute at problems.

> we don’t do anybody a favor by increasing the entropy of the publications in the huge ML conferences

You and I have very different ideas as to what constitutes information gain. I would say a majority of people studying two models (LLMs and diffusion) results in lower gain, not more.

And as I've said above, I don't care about novelty. It's a meaningless term. (and I wish to god people would read the fucking conference reviewer guidelines as they constantly violate them when discussing novelty)
I don't get the reasoning here either, but I would be down with banning endless scrolling because it has so much more disadvantages.

I don't mind it for entertainment, but for any technical data it just is a stupid idea. The usability is worse too aside maybe the most trivial mobile valium scrolling.

- Where can i promote such app? I like doing some buildInPublic on X

It would be great to receive some feedback!
> It makes posting something incredibly low friction.

Yes, that is what makes places like TwiXXer and the like such cesspools, the fact that they invite anyone to post whatever lies on the tip of their fingers at any moment without thinking it over for more than a few seconds. This may be fine if you're just 'talking shit' but it has the side effect of turning every conversation into 'talking shit'. If RSS does 'force' people to put more effort in to post their thoughts I say more power to RSS, the 'net is not just for 'talking shit' after all.

EDIT 3: God damn it - forget it. The rate is per 100,000 - the site I got it from was terrible [1].

So the numbers don't work at all - the death rate should be about ~0.8% in any given year for the full population going by [2] (798.8 deaths per 100,000 in 2022).

Just to elaborate: my thesis before I edited this post was that if you have a large number of whistleblowers, the chance of someone in the population dying of normal causes over a given time frame might become quite large.

I mean, both of Musk's endeavours after Paypal, that is, Tesla and SpaceX- were incredibly high-risk bets with the goal of opening entirely new markets where there was none (ev cars and private space launches). At the time Musk was justifying his choice of investments with the idea of doing something new and important for humanity (transitioning out of fossil fuels and colonise other planets)- but in any case it's clear that he wanted to work on something cool and that his choices were not driven primarily by a rational money-making strategy.

Fast-forward to 2024, while SpaceX is still delivering science fiction, Tesla is now an EV automaker among many- you can buy EV cars from any automaker and there is a deluge of cheap brands coming from China. Is Musk interested in owning and running a regular car company? I don't think so. I think he's desperate to find something else that is cool enough and incredibly high risk and high returns. Maybe using the capital and infrastructure from Tesla itself- and humanoid robotics seems a good candidate.

Bayesian networks learn probability functions, but looks like only their tabulated versions:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_network#Graphical_mod...

> Each node is associated with a probability function that takes, as input, a particular set of values for the node's parent variables, and gives (as output) the probability (or probability distribution, if applicable) of the variable represented by the node. For example, if m parent nodes represent m Boolean variables, then the probability function could be represented by a table of 2^m entries, one entry for each of the 2^m possible parent combinations.
This is lovely.

I'm having trouble working out how this differs from Factor, in which left bracket and quote are also not primitive.
> Scratch is far better and deeper than most people think.

Scratch has no local variables, no recursion, no pointers or references, and no data structures, correct?
It is wishful thinking by those who were used to having it 'all to themselves' and were dismayed when Musk took off the ideological blinders. It was a cesspit before and remains a cesspit after but now at least there is some diversity in opinion to be found there.

It's possible to run it on CUDA. One of their examples shows how. But I found it's slower than on CPU. I'm actually not really surprised since running something on GPU is not a guarantee that it's gonna be fast, especially when lots of branching is involved.

Unfortunately, I had to modify KAN.py and KANLayer.py to make it work as not all relevant tensor are put on the correct device. In some places the formatting even suggests that there was previously a device argument.

There's been a few examples where model guessed the city right because they see [insert street name] but the streetname is nowhere in the picture. But pictures had very definite tells like license plate style. I haven't gotten anything within 100km yet, mostly picking random cities in the correct country. Unless I include landmark, but feels like it's dropping random pins around the landmark because pinned location rarely gets the orientation / view correct. And it really should if the model references aerial maps, i.e. there's only 1 green space where the photo could feasibly be taken, but here's a random side walk.

Edit:

From the rainbolt interview, they claim trained on 200k images, 92% country accuracy with median error of 44 km... median error is... not remotely what I'm experiencing, but the AI seems to be doing great job in geoguesser match vs rainbolt. Also supposed trained to be aware of cardinal directions.

It's only mentioned at the end of the video but the AI is using features of the camera like locations of smudges.

When you value a business, part of it is brand and people's habits. The new owners are betting that they can trade in that value for cash, by selling a crap lesser product under the old name, and that this will return faster than a sustainable business.

It's not obviously bad from a finance point, it's just significantly shorter term thinking than the original owner.
> Let me revisit my statement once I've read those chapters then.

You can find them here:

Note that they are quite drafty. That was the result of a previous effort to tackle this project of writing about the scientific method for a general audience that I ultimately abandoned in favor of this current approach. The history part starts in chapter 5.

These were based on a series of lectures I gave a few years ago. I can dig up those links too if you're interested.

> I wonder how you would characterize the 1989 series of experiments done by Fleischmann and Pons.

I'm not sure what you expect me to say. The results have not been reproduced, so whatever happened in 1989 it was almost certainly not cold fusion.

For reference for non-UK people: anyone can apply to be a Member of Parliament for your local area, assuming you can pay the initial fee (you get it back if you get enough votes).
