Author here. It's kinda the point. People conflate OAuth and federated authentication all the time.

But the bigger point I was trying to make in the piece is by separating the concerns of into the authentication event and a token that is the result, you get the ability to add new tech to authentication without affecting apps that consume the token.
> marimo makes it seamless to go from prototype to production.

No, it doesn’t.

In fact, no tool; not retool, not any of no-code solutions, free or paid, lets you take a hacked up prototype and seamlessly put in into production.

In fact, even claiming that it does makes me question the other (superficially quite laudable) things it claims to do; eg. plain python files.

Why do people go down these rabbit holes?

You can’t run prototype notebooks for your production workloads.

It’s not because it’s fundamentally impossible to use a notebook as a platform for robust production code.

…it’s because prototyping means quick hacks, quick dirty unmaintainable hacks.

> Run your notebook as a web app, with Python code hidden and uneditable

Why? Stop. No. Don’t make your prototype hacked up notebook that has probably got direct system access public.

You at least are password protecting this right? No? (https://github.com/marimo-team/marimo/issues/395)

Seeing how few things can be done/automated on a locked iPhone even when using Shortcuts, I don’t expect this to go beyond a better autosuggest for text. Which is fine, killing the AI hype might just work out for eveyone.
Are you calling just allocating memory you’ll never use leaking? It is not. It is recoverable because for it not to be GC’d it has to be someone accessible. A memory leak means you lost the pointer to the memory, so now you can’t free it.
Generally notebooks are used specifically when statefulness gets in the way, and an interactive feedback loop is the entire end goal, not the means. Being able to iterate on operations at a cell level with reactivity is totally game changing for such use cases. If you don't get where that would be valuable, you probably just haven't encountered such a use case yet.

Fresh Insights on US Income Mobility from 2005 to 2019
How is this different from just a keyfile?
Well, AT&T was so insignificant that the government broke it into 8, 7 regional phone companies and a core continental provider. The core (AT&T) then sold its tech capability (Lucent). One of the bits (South Western) then ate the core and decided to call itself AT&T once more, now it's one of the biggest (13th) companies in the USA again.

However, the internet meant dumb core, smart edge. This, and regulation meant that telecoms companies have struggled to make themselves relevant to consumers. Any attempt to do so (undermining net neutrality) generally inspires rage in everyone. Technical change has lead to the situation now of the core just being what happens in data centres and between data centres - everything else is just noise. Telcos weren't able to raise the funds to invest in cloud at the rate that Amazon, Google and MS were because they had other investment pulls (3,4,5G, FTTH) and much less free cash - and so they got shut out.

Fedora does have a Server flavor that has all the nice default settings you hope for in a server/headless environment.

But on long-running machines (i.e. not containers or temporary boxes) I concur.
I use either RHEL or AlmaLinux for those. But given that RHEL and AlmaLinux are based on Fedora, I don't really consider them to be different. Everything you know and love from Fedora (for the most part) will be the same there. For example most of my setup scripts I write for Fedora work without change on AlmaLinux, and package names, config files, etc are very (though not entirely) consistent.

Software like CAD/CAM is indeed a lot more painful on Fedora, although IMHO that has basically been solved by distrobox. For softare like that that wants a specific Ubuntu version or whatever, I just install it in a distrobox and export it back to the host. My biggest complaint is that it usually works so well that I sometimes forget it's inside a distrobox :-)

Building a terrarium out of plexiglass and silicon sealant is a fun project for multi age groups. The older kids can do interesting math projects like "calculate the volume of the aquarium" or "calculate the total cost of parts cut at the hardware store". Then both groups can go out into a park or wilderness area and collect insects, moss, plants, soil, rocks and amphibians to put in the terrarium after it's built. You can collect these in mason jars or recycled bottles with holes poked in the lids (when necessary). If you have a microscope or handheld lens you can look at pond water or found objects to observe what is hidden to the naked eye. Teaching kids how to do field reports and write their observations, make drawing, etc. The older kids can give lessons and teach the younger ones.
I find it so weird to see Jupyter being the "traditional" option in this discussion.

Kudos for the shout out to excel being the main "notebook" most people have experience with.

I question the choice of Python as the format. Agreed that Json is terrible. But Python will have similar problems. And a notebook is a marked up document. Using a markup language is a natural choice. Delimit areas of particular syntax and you are off to the races. (Yes, I am fond of org mode.)

People are bullshitting just the same about topics they know nothing about. They often also won't shut about when others tell them and even when they themselves know that they know nothing. To some extent this is necessary for humans to function at all, and the scientific process starts out from uneducated guesses and rigorously refines them and casts away what doesn't hold up to empiric data.

Optical illusions are evidence of the pile of hacks that our senses and our consciousness use to make sense of the world. I think it is really difficult to fully disengage from the biases this induces, and we are sadly best at perceiving such flaws in others. This might be one of the reasons why humans have to socialize with other humans to maintain mental health.

> The researchers discovered that a small number of biochemical pathways are responsible for the majority of these changes, which could help inform new early detection and prevention strategies for autism.

It won’t. Autism is a socioculturally bound diagnosis, not a single disease that exists in biology. It’s a label for those perceived by others in a certain light, defined in such a way that two with the same label can have remarkably little overlap in terms of observed behaviour. You diagnose autism based on how people act, not who they are. Any biological markers for autism are politically suspect as it would imply those without those markers are invalid, while also raising the spectre of eugenics for those with the markers.

More likely and productivity it might eventually REPLACE autism as a diagnosis with something scientifically valid and treatable, as if somebody displays no autistic behaviours as a result of treatment of a metabolic disorder, why diagnose them with autism?

Taste is absolutely linked with temperature. Cold vs hot coffee for example. Don’t know exactly why. Most things tend to taste “more” when hot. Could be the intensity of molecular activity, which is what temperature is, that varies and so registers more or less strongly with our taste preceptors

> thinking exercise and choice has no impact on life outcomes

My argument takes as a starting point the fact that exercise increases life and healthspan.

Twin studies demonstrate that exercise provides benefits for longevity, but the longevity effect is significantly smaller than previously thought. Most of the longevity benefit was explained by other lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol use, and body mass index.

> Starting point is not the sole determinant

Using logical language to discuss statistic is not good idea. Everything is multicausal. Ordering causes by their significance is what matters.

Curious to see the specifics and terms of any such deal before speculating if it's a good or a bad thing, for users, and for Apple.
My iBook G4 was absolutely crushed by my friends Wintel laptops that they bought for half as much.
Granted it was more carriable and had somewhat better battery life (needed it cause how much longer was needed to do stuff) but really performance was not a good reason to go with Apple hardware, and that still holds true as far as I'm concerned.

Their privacy angle is 100% the reason they haven't managed to make a decent LLM.

To make a decent LLM you need to ignore data protection and throw all available text into a huge model. If your morals don't let you do that, then you can't make your own LLM.
You are ignoring "practice", which in this context means any kind of operational use, including things like research (they also specify "implementation" separately, to explicitly cover development of products).

Practice here is as in "practice medicine", not "practice for tryouts".

Mac OS originally didn’t have the concept of full screen (expect for games, pro software) or tiling. Its floating, overlapping and spatially oriented windows blew people's minds. It was coherent and wonderfully executed, both powerful and simple, I miss it dearly.

Apple is probably big enough that they would be trusted to take the weights and run them on apple hardware under license.
recent as in 3rd century. :D

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but this is how I've felt my whole life. people trapping themselves in this sea of words, so many arguments could be solved if we could just connect our brains and see the concepts instead of hearing the words

words are at best shortcuts -- and I say 'at best' because they still don't fix the issue of 'for me love means X, but for you love means Y'

this is another reason I'd advocate for innovating towards this Meaning Space, it's also an easier segue to web4 (brainnet)
> its massive market share and RnD budget apparently wasn‘t able to get a team and traction

Frankly I don't want Apple to try to be the best at everything, because they generally aren't. I've been bitten by iMovie getting worse, Time Machine doing a terrible job, Apple Maps being less than useful for a long time, iCloud being generally lackluster, and more. I'd much rather they outsource the service to a company that is solely focused on the task. There's no reason they couldn't ensure those services remain private or secure.
What I want in 2 years on the iPhone 17 is “Listen up, Siri”

At which point it just starts recording a voice memo until we tell it we’re done. Then it summarizes what it’s heard into todo items, grocery lists, list of potential appointments or stops to make. It manages to deal with the pauses, the umms, the stammering, the “let’s get some orange soda. No, wait, make that grape.”

Basically, listen in to my wife and I talk about our day and summarize it into action items.
sound advice, thanks!
Things don't actually blow up in development, for whatever it's worth. It's really very unusual to have a defect whereby an invalid message is sent to a task -- which was part of why REPLY_FAULT was an entirely reasonable extension of the system: it doesn't come up often, but when it does, you really want to debug it.

as a daily jupyter user, i like this .py DAG approach a lot - more so for visualizing complex workflows than addressing a potentially corrupt hidden state.

there isn't much *data science functionality* integrated into jupyter core apart from displaying static dataframes (nor is their internal desire to add it), and jupyter *extensions/widgets* should really be built with dash/streamlit, so i'd encourage you to make an ecosystem.

having spent a lot of time with airflow recently, it's designed for scheduling recurring jobs, not *batch processing.* meanwhile dagster is not meant for computationally intensive/ long-running jobs and the dataset-centric approach is offputting

Every memory-safe language has a runtime written in a memory-managed language. Yes, even Rust: Rust is implemented using many (well-vetted) unsafe blocks.

So projects to improve the quality, and lower the defect rate, in memory-managed programming, are far from wasted. Even if they only get used to write fast garbage collectors so that line coders can get on with the work of delivering value to customers.

Minor quibble: you can linearize small amounts of memory using atomic access. You just need to ensure that your memory fits within the size of a single atomic access. For example, storing two uint32 as a uint64 when there is atomic access to uint64 available.

The licences for open-source models are generally designed to restrict this kind of usage by big tech. See the "Additional commercial terms" of the Llama 2 licence, for example:

> If, on the Llama 2 version release date, the monthly active users of the products or services made available by or for Licensee, or Licensee’s affiliates, is greater than 700 million monthly active users in the preceding calendar month, you must request a license from Meta, which Meta may grant to you in its sole discretion, and you are not authorized to exercise any of the rights under this Agreement unless or until Meta otherwise expressly grants you such rights.

There is probably a need for an alternative term to describe these kinds of models, because they're not exactly open-source in the traditional sense
LOVE peaZip! What I especially like about it is in my experience it’s been very portable on linux, and the gui has always been portable as well. (it works on Tails - so it’s great for putting onto a USB stick that contains encrypted zip / veracrypt archives for when you need to access those on an air gap d machine.)
The Linux community is huge and diverse. One person's opinion shouldn't keep you away from the community, anymore than having a comic-con attendant be rude in the grocery store should keep you from comic-con. Also I don't know how you get that GP is "gatekeeping" with their comment. I don't see anywhere they said you shouldn't be able to run Slack as an app, merely that they personally don't do it and they are very surprised that other people do. I also don't see where they have any power to limit you, should they even want to (which most Linux people don't want to limit anybody).
Can you elaborate more on why you feel this is gatekeeping?

I also use the Slack app (on Fedora). I much prefer it to a web browser because of the reasons you mentioned. Keyboard shortcuts, multiple workspaces, etc. It's also nice to just have it in it's own process so when it gets memory hungry I can kill it, and I don't have to deal with Slack tabs.

The beauty of Linux is the diversity IMHO. GP isn't wrong, you're not wrong, I'm not wrong. Linux is about flexibility and power, and empowerment of the individual (especially the user). Here the user is always right, and I love that. It's where all hackers should live IMHO (but I'm not trying to force anybody to Linux, you do you :-D)
Is Dual Pricing for Tourists Fair?
Maybe a very cut down version - any of the more recent and capable OpenAI models are surely far too large to put on an iPhone, and far too large to run (in terms of both memory available, and processing power).

This would maybe align with the 'limited abilities are free' approach.

Even if they don’t (or if it’s partially networked as some recent rumors suggest), it’ll be rolled into one or both of two predictable costs (to the consumer):

1. The device sale itself, either raising the ASP or offsetting some other cost (to Apple) savings

2. Recurring payments for iCloud (or any rebranding it might undergo along with the feature)

Apple’s pricing model, if not totally predictable, is exceedingly formulaic. If they deviate from these into some sort of nickel and diming on “AI” features alone, that would almost certainly be a clear sign that they’re betting against it as a long term selling point.
> For 1. Apple is certainly trying to fit models onto an iPhone with OpenELM and I think the M4 debuting on an iPad is also posturing for local compute as well.

You misunderstand point 1. Three-digit billion parameter models like GPT-4 (or even 3.5) aren't going to fit on modern iPhones, not even close. Even Llama 70b requires 35GB of RAM at q4 quantization, and that's just for the model.

Compare that to the iPhone 15's 6GB and you'll see the problem. Apple isn't about to announce an iPhone with 6x as much RAM as any previous model. I'd be shocked if they even doubled it. Their local inference models are going to be tiny and limited, which is fine, but that means they have to go to the cloud to provide all the features people are expecting.
