A human mind is perfectly capable of following the same instructions as the computer did. Computers are stupidly simple and completely deterministic.

The concern is about "holding it all in your head", and depending on your preferred level of abstraction, "all" can perfectly reasonably be held in your head. For example: "This program generates the most likely outputs" makes perfect sense to me, even if I don't understand some of the code. I understand the system. Programmers went through this decades ago. Physicists had to do it too. Now, chemists I suppose.
>It's awfully difficult to say that there is equivalent perceived SPL for different frequency domains, even as a trained listener.

The snippet you quote doesn't claim comparing intensities at different frequencies.

He is comparing only perceived 1kHz intensities, (in the presence or absence of maskers at other frequencies, whose intensity is not subjectively being scored)
Is it? I'm not so familiar with the specifics of bug bounty programs, but it seems like this issue could cause much more than 3k in damages if it were to be exploited.

Similarly, I'm kind of shocked that Google is only offering 30k for discoveries of remote code execution vulnerabilities on their own servers. I don't mean to trivialize that amount of money, but compared to the scope of what that kind of vulnerability could be used for it seems insignificant. There's the potential for access to internal Google secrets and private data belonging to users. Would a government not pay 10-20x for something like that?
Yeah, I'm annoyed that OpenAI has deprecated its text completion models and API. I think there's a ton of value to be had from constrained generation like what's available with the Guidance library.
> I've often pondered the optimal book organisation

Let me introduce you to an option I recently found. I went to get a book from our (large) bookcase and found they’d all been reorganised based on cover colour.
I think it likely that instead of replacing existing methods, we will see a fusion. Or rather, many different kinds of fusions - depending on the exact needs of the problems at hand (or in science, the current boundary of knowledge). If nothing else then to provide appropriate/desirable level of explainability, correctness etc. Hypothetically the combination will also have better predictive performance and be more data efficient - but it remains to be seen how well this plays out in practice. The field of "physics informed machine learning" is all about this.
GPT4: in a string context, "1 + 1" might concatenate into "11" rather than numerically adding to "2".

GPT4: The holographic principle suggests that all of the information contained in a volume of space can be represented as encoded information on the boundary of that space. If one were to apply this principle radically, one could argue that our three-dimensional perception of the Earth's shape is just a holographic projection from a two-dimensional surface. In this speculative scenario, one might argue that the "true" nature of Earth could be flat if viewed as a two-dimensional boundary encoding information in a higher-dimensional space.
Sure, but a person paddling isn't hydrofoiling, right? They're using their arms instead of legs and contending with tons of additional friction/drag. I see this as being akin to bicycling, since it uses the same muscles.
Show HN: YC S24 Prediction Site
A table blew up the last YC cycle with "Yes/No" fields for 10 objective criteria. I thought of making it in an interactive format on a fun website. If you applied to YC, this might be a nice quick distraction. Would also love some feedback on the selection criteria logic that I have used.
I assume you'd start archiving right now when it's available. In 20 years it'll be public domain and freely accessible.
Climbing route setting (when done at a high level) is constantly in conversation with itself. Many climbers don't realize that there are trends or fads in movement styles that sweep across the industry. This has only picked up steam in an era of social media.

Just like movie dorks will happily spend hours explaining how an individual shot in a movie is actually an insider reference to another movie, and as a result a statement of intent for the movie as a whole, professional route setters will talk your ear off about the way one of their problems embraces or rejects specific kinds of movement trends of the last 6 months.

That intentional rejection is interesting. Many route setters, especially for competitions, are in constant search of novelty. One kind of perfect problem is something that looks confusing and impossible, up until you see it done, at which point it seems almost obvious. It's the feeling of solving a sudoku. But critically, they want climbers to be initially confused.

I wonder if AI might actually be better than humans at sequencing these kinds of problems. Humans bring so much context and experience and expectation to the process that we are easily tricked. AI just looks through a few terabytes of video and says "What about this?".
> How is a police officer like a CEO, and not like a factory line worker?

Both the police and CEOs are incentivized to protect the interest of capitalists. That is a primary duty of their job. Labor, on the other hand, challenges the interests of capitalists.

> It seems very clear that they are more the latter (labor) than the former (admin).

Clear in what way? Where there are people there are people problems. Indeed, police often have associations to help with people problems, hell even the capitalists sometimes have unions (e.g. farmers), but these are not labor unions. If this is what you are talking about, there is nothing clear about it – it is all quite arbitrary who gets to associate and who doesn't, but is also beyond the topic at hand.
You can retire on that - if you move to a small town in someplace like New Mexico - someplace where you can buy a house within walking distance of the local grocery store, do not need much heat or AC. (this implies the town is large enough to have a grocery store!). You won't get a car to drive though so select your town to live in well as you won't leave it often - once in a while someone might offer you a free ride elsewhere but you can't ask that often enough that they feel abused. You won't be eating out, just cooking your own meals.

There are lots of cheap things you can do in those towns - and you will do only those things for entertainment. You will probably be known as the guy who makes desert art because that is all you can do.

I wouldn't want to live that life, and I don't think most others reading this would either. However you could do it. Most of us would enjoy that life for a week or two every year but then want to get back to modern life. To each their own - if you want it go for it.

OP (and library author) here. This is a fair point, and one I freely admit to in the accompanying blog post. It’s probably not crucial to sync more than once per major Postgres version, but we’re still figuring out how we’ll deal with this.
You are assuming these kids have parents (or other trustworthy, responsible adults) to go home to. Which, in large areas of the USA, they do not.
The way I think about this (specifically, deepmind not publishing their code or sharing their exact experimental results): advanced science is a game played by the most sophisticated actors in the world. Demis is one of those actors, and he plays the games those actors play better than anybody else I've ever seen. Those actors don't care much about the details of any specific system's accuracy: they care to know that it's possible to do this, and some general numbers about how well it works, and some hints what approaches they should take. And Nature, like other top journals, is more than willing to publish articles like this because they know it stimulates the most competitive players to bring their best games.

(I'm not defending this approach, just making an observation)

No, a lot of the time the machine was stationary because the needed to manually reinforce what they were about to drill through, so the machine wouldn't get trapped and buried in gravel. Wouldn't Prufrock-3 be similarly slowed down!

In addition to that I assume that the 7 miles a day claim assumes 24/7 drilling, whereas I wouldn't be surprised if the swiss were doing 8/5 drilling.

Those are thorny issues, but I don't think the upshot of this is supposed to be an invitation to helpless relativism and giving up on factual questions or questions where actual values are at stake. Maybe you had a different upshot in mind with your observation but insofar as it's that, I would say that's not the only or even best takeaway.

https://github.com/TabbyML/tabby can run self-hosted AI coding assistants. I tried it a while ago and it worked with Nvim pretty easily. There is a VS code extension too. The extension will just sort of "read" with you and provide suggestions from time to time. Anytime the suggestion is good you can press some key (<TAB> by default) to accept it. It's basically autocomplete on steroids.
Looks like pretty hard work compared to land bikes. You never get to coast downhill. I wonder if you can get it to surf on waves.
The model isn't reality. A theory that disagrees with the model but agrees with reality shouldn't be filtered, but in this process it will be.
> The publisher site makes a request to the issuer to redeem the trust tokens.

They don't explain it very good because that makes it sound like they're asking the issuer to validate a token which implies the potential to correlate it to the user.

That whole scheme seems pretty bad IMO. It looks like it boils down to sites sharing trust data which means huge platforms are going to become the arbiters of who's good vs bad. Even if the system works well and sharing trust info reduces bots and bad actors, it's going to have a negative effect on new market entrants because it's likely they'll have to buy trust data rather than having some kind of peering arrangement.

It seems like big tech companies are hellbent on controlling every minute of our lives. It's disappointing.
This is a really interesting way to look at it. This weekend we were driving through the Sunset in San Francisco, and my daughter asked if it was a suburb of San Francisco. We told her technically no, because it is within the city limits. But on the other hand, most of the area was built between 1920 and 1945, which was at least 75 years after most of the downtown core (before the earthquake). So in that regard, it's definitely an early "growth-ring" of San Francisco.

I like this way of thing about it. Thank you.
It would be funny, if it wasn't also sad to see the decline.
It's not a lie to provide the best argument for something; it'd only be a lie if you looked at the best argument for something and declared it true by fiat.

Imagine I've realized someone I'm talking to is a flat Earther, and for some reason I want to convince them otherwise. To do so effectively, I need to know why they believe what they do. Knowing they're wrong is useless for the purpose of convincing them otherwise.
"Make an argument for a fact you know to be wrong" isn't an exercise in lying, though. If anything, the ability to explore hypotheticals and thought experiments - even when they are plainly wrong - is closer to a mark of intelligence than the ability to regurgitate orthodoxy.
It’s used in Neon’s web-based console to support \d and friends alongside regular SQL queries.

Asking for a machine with "insane battery life, amazing performance, great screen and one of the lightest chassis" and oh, it must be completely silent is a loaded set of demands. Apple in the current market is essentially the only player that can actually make a laptop that can meet your demands, at least without doing a bunch of research into something that's equivalent and hoping the goal posts don't move again.

Perhaps for understanding the structure itself, but having the structure available allows us to focus on a coarser level. We also don't want to use quantum mechanics to understand the everyday world, and that's why we have classic mechanics etc.

>That’s exactly how discord servers are made

But Discord "servers" are completely different things compared to either IRC servers or IRC channels.

"Apples and oranges have similarities" is a cool story and all, but they're still apples and they're still oranges.

>While not official, discord has several third party clients. The discord client is an electron app, so it’s just using discords api.

IRC never really had this "official" or "first-party" problem to contend with at all. After it escaped the University of Oulu, people all over were creating their own incarnations of both clients and servers -- and running them independently, without centralized control. (This happened over the span of only a few months.)

>Not to say discord is perfect or the be all end all, but it shows a strong trend back towards [...]

...something that is useful and fun, and that is not like IRC.

> How do you defend against that? I'm not sure you do... A tool is a tool. I wouldn't want my CAD software saying, "I think you're trying to CAD a pipe bomb so I'm going to shut down now."

The core of the issue is that there are many people, including regulators, who wish that software did exactly that.
That is exactly correct. So a money example;

Winter's coming and you need a coat, you don't have much money and so you buy the cheap coat that costs $40 instead of the expensive coat that costs $60, 2/3rds through winter your coat fails and you buy another cheap coat for $40. You're out $80 for the winter vs being out $60.

A time example works similarly, when time is scarce you choose not to invest enough time into something (cleaning, fixing something, reading, whatever) and by making that choice, over a wider period you end up spending more time on this task because you're making up for not doing enough when you could have.

For me the trigger is anytime I think "I should do <x> but I don't have enough <y> to do it, correctly but I can get by using only a small amount of <y> if I do it this other way." That is a scarcity based decision not a reasoned one.

The deal for me is to look at the situation with a wider lens to see what the longer term resource requirement is and working from that. It does result in what can feel like a "riskier" choice, but when I track those choices I find making the non-scarcity driven decision is usually the better choice.
One of the most fascinating men that worked in music production/recording. If you aren't familiar with him and his various idiosyncrasies, I highly recommend giving this a watch/listen:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKEzHie9tAI&ab_channel=SAEAu...

In my personal list of top 10 albums of all time, Albini recorded six of them. I say "recorded" instead of "produced" because this is more akin to his style: set up microphones and record the band as they sound.
He had strong opinions regarding politics, art, and business and you may strongly disagree with him (or not, or maybe on some things) but he was never a hypocrite. He took his convictions to the grave.
EDIT: Disregard. I am wrong. Original below.

You can just load as a resource. We do this internally since much of network stack is C. But we use JNI because code is older than Java 22.

Right. "By Apple".

Apple says it made these changes for other reasons, honestly, truly. And if it happened to have the same effect, then that was unfortunate, and unintended.

Only Apple really knows. But there was a slew of changes and reversals following the drama. "Oh, we'll implement notifications now", "Oh, we'll change the peak performance behavior", and "we will change and add additional diagnostics to make sure issues are battery related" certainly has a feel for a bunch of ex post facto rationalization of several things that seem, to me, that if it was truly a battery thing all along, would have been functional requirements.
This would only be sampling bias if someone made the claim that working 58 hours/week is what you need to become a rich CEO. That claim is false, but a survey of CEOs only would make it seem true. (there are lots of people working 60+ hours/week in low end jobs that will never make CEO - as any sample would tell you)

The claims here though are CEOs generally work more than average despite their high income where they seem to have plenty of money. That claim checks out.
Great. Many of those investments should never have been able to be made in the first place, because they came through fraudulent actions.

Sure, those gains can be used to make investors whole. No, SBF shouldn't get any credit for his "foresight" because they can.

There was a point within a couple of months of the Madoff collapse where it was shown that if he'd sent out an email to his investors saying, "Here's the deal, we're freezing. No more deposits. No withdrawals for now", and he'd left everything untouched for four years, he would have been in the black. His efforts wouldn't have been right or net-zero if he'd done that, though.

Whole idea of nation or ethnicity did not even exist few hundred years ago. And Europe was everything but peaceful up until 1945.

Feynman already articulated the one practical application for quantum computing: using it to simulate complex systems (https://www.optica-opn.org/home/articles/on/volume_11/issue_... and https://calteches.library.caltech.edu/1976/ and https://s2.smu.edu/~mitch/class/5395/papers/feynman-quantum-...

These approaches are now being explored but I haven't seen any smoking guns showing a QC-based simulation exceeding the accuracy of a classical computer for a reasonable investment.

Folks have suggested other areas, such as logistics, where finding small improvements to the best approximations might give a company a small edge, and crypto-breaking, but there has been not that much progress in this area, and the approximate methods have been improving rapidly.

We can't ask teachers to work 5 days when the rest of the world doesn't.

If this came to pass I'm sure some scheduling could be done so that kids still get a 5 day school week and each teacher still only work 4 out of those 5 days. Everybody doesn't necessarily have to have the same extra day off.
