You may be under this impression because ADHD and Autism are so frequently comorbid:

According to the scientific literature, 50 to 70% of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) also present with comorbid attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). From a clinical perspective, this high rate of comorbidity is intriguing. What is the real significance of this dual diagnosis? Is ADHD in fact always present in such cases? Might the attentional impairment reported among our ASD patients actually be a distinct trait of their ASD—namely, impaired joint attention—rather than an ADHD attention deficit? Could their agitation be the consequence of this joint attention impairment or related to a physical restlessness etiologically very different from the agitation typical of ADHD? The neurobiological reality of ASD-ADHD comorbidity is a subject of debate, and amphetamine-based treatment can have paradoxical or undesirable effects in the ASD population. Consequently, does a dual diagnosis, notwithstanding its currency in the literature, prevent us from shedding sufficient light on major physiopathologic questions raised by the clinical picture of ASD?

> We have had literally zero complaints of anyone being stalked with a device where anti-theft was enabled.

First, it's highly likely that someone being stalked wouldn't realize a tile device was the cause. Secondly, you said Tile and Life360 are on only 12% of devices. So maybe 1 out of 10 stalkers will be successful in using your device to stalk. That's not enough data to state so conclusively that this doesn't happen. I'm sure if Tile was more popular (and thus more functional) and more stalkers knew they were the best devices for stalking, they would use them.
I am being condescending about the effort put into the distributed systems field- very specifically, about classical supercomputers.

How close was I to faculty in AMPLab? Pretty close; I attended a retreat one year, helped steer funding their way, tried to hire Matei into Google Research, and have chatted with Patterson extensively around the time he wrote this (https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/06/science/david-patterson-e...) then later when he worked on TPUs at Google.

(I'm not a stellar researcher or anything, really more of a functionary, but the one thing I do have is an absolutely realistic understanding of how academic and industrial HPC works)

Hi Tile Ceo,

I was able to track down my stolen vehicle with the help of Tile and now put them hidden in all my vehicles since they don't alert like an Air Tag does.
Very nice addition! Do you plan to support Snowflake as an object store in the near future? It's not currently in pg_lakehouse's README.
Int8 training has very few applications, and int8 ops generally are very easy to implement. Int8 is a decent inference format, but supposedly doesn't work well for LLMs that need a wide dynamic range.
We use a third party and they do a liveness scan with a live camera feed so it is not nearly that simple.

I'm sure we can come up with edge cases or potential ways people could cheat the system, but we are adding so much risk and friction to stalkers that they would likely just buy a real stealth GPS tracker with an LTE connection.

As a genuine question, why is there no outrage for these devices that are literally marketed as stealth trackers?

As a personal bias, I believe companies like yours are pathologically unable to do the right thing. Take my reply with that in mind.

I carefully examined life360.com, trying to put myself in the shoes of somebody who was stalked, magically divined that life360 was involved, and wanted to report the issue. The extent of my options on life360.com are:

And that's it. There does not exist a "contact us" or other general mechanism, and there certainly does not exist an abuse reporting mechanism. If that happens to exist behind other filters or paywalls then it's not relevant when discussing how the average customer would interact with your website.

With that in mind, I would expect an exactly 0% abuse rate regardless of how abusive your product actually is. You confirm that number. I'm not surprised.

The ball is in your court. How do you prove to the world that you _actually_ care about abuse? How _should_ a real abusee interact with your website? Why isn't it obvious? What are the exact numbers? And so on...

i think it's fine (in concept) to have a central(-ish) numbering scheme for security bugs. so far, so good.

but this is made worse in no small part by security researchers, students, companies etc. are all using a CVE as an achievement or some kind of feather in their cap.

now, you get thousands of "CVE-2024-10340494: water is wet" and the related "CVE-2024-10340495: if users look up in the rain, they could conceivably drown". of course it would always also have a blog, a custom domain-name, a catchy title/nickname, etc.

it's Goodhart's Law in action: "when a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure."

and what else could the Linux devs reasonably do? it was either this or ignore CVE's entirely.

Covid is significantly worse than other widespread respiratory viruses, in that it clearly leaves a significant chunk of people disabled for months at a time if not permanently. (I personally had terrible fatigue for around 3 months afterwards. I've had a lot of respiratory illnesses, but this was the only time I had symptoms lasting months.)
> Bad example. Autofocus makes changes to the light that goes into the camera, not just the data that comes out.

Arguably so do the AI things (i.e. they take multiple shots at different exposure and composit them).

The point is, we have ceeded manual control of photography to automated systems a long time ago. Most people are happy with that choice, as phone cameras serve a cultural function and are not scientific instruments.
Hey; Tile user here. I can’t figure out your iPhone app any more.

It switches between modes at random (map, we’ll notify you, and the signal meter) when the signal is weak, and it says we have to replace batteries constantly. (Even though we just replaced them — is the tile shorted out internally, or do we have to reset a timer somewhere, or what?). Also, it spams upsell attempts while doing this. You may as well be displaying ads for competitors at this high-stress point in the UI flow!

Other than the above stuff, which feel kind of like bugs, I’ve noticed it’s hard to figure out which building (in a 1 acre space) our keys were last seen in. We own all the phones and tiles around here, so giving better precision probably wouldn’t be a privacy issue.

I’d rather go with a smaller, cross platform provider, but we’re seriously considering switching to AirTag.

Thanks for standing up for functionality vs. questionable privacy protection.

Anyway, we’re rooting for you; good luck!
That's what has been promised for 2024 Aug/Sep shipping devices, including mainline Linux support and Arm SystemReady UEFI booting of any compliant Arm distro, on laptops and/or tablets from Microsoft, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo and more.

Pricing is an open question, but even if the initial devices are "premium" due to post-IPO Arm licensing tax on Qualcomm, competition between multiple PC vendors and Apple will be good for everyone

In a year or two, hopefully that means Framework Arm devices with power and performance >= early Apple Silicon devices.

Did you have anywhere in mind that had developers underbuild relative to the zoning? Seems like most urban areas in California at least are already near the limits of their zoned capacity. A lot of the times when you see a highrise standing out on a block its not because the rest of the block is zoned for that same height and is underbuilt, but often because of some special variances permitting that project to exceed what its zoned for on that lot.
SQLite does make this a lot clearer using flow charts, I wish Postgres' docs had that.

https://www.sqlite.org/lang_createtable.html

You will find all the same information in the Postgres docs, but in a more obtuse, grammatical form.

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-createtable.html

They will tell you what each component does further down the page though.

Mongo's documentation has a slicker and more ergonomic design though, no question. Mongo uses a "cheat sheet"/"tabular" approach, and Postgres uses a "printed reference book" approach, which is rather dated. Mongo is very good at surfacing the complexity and nitty gritty details immediately. It's all there in the Postgres docs, but you have to sit with them for longer and have more of an intuition about how they've organized it.

I've also found the Postgres.FM podcast to be a great resource. I've been working with Mongo recently and something that's bothered me is that I haven't found a comparable resource, where practitioners give you the straight dope about what stupid mistake you're going to make to bring down production and how to fix it. Substantially all of the learning material for Mongo is from Mongo the company, and is just not as candid.
Yeah even most of the early stuff was pretty awful. You’d get the odd cool idea, but practically none of the material is better than mediocre (no, not even that trilogy).

Many of the authors didn’t seem to understand Star Wars at all, and got the feel all wrong—in fact, in a lot of cases I wonder whether they’d just touched up a failed manuscript or partially-finished-but-not-promising draft with Star Wars colored markers, and sent that to the publisher. Stackpole was a rare exception, and Zahn kinda.

But even those relatively bright points suffered terribly from Star Wars being almost intrinsically a visual beast. It’s so tied into pastiche of other visual media that it’s remarkably difficult to get it right in print, while the formula for making a decent Star Wars film or show is easier than damn near any other franchise ever: pick one or two things, at least one of “genre” fiction, rip them off completely, and put Star Wars lipstick on it. That’s the whole deal for making a pretty good Star Wars thing. It’s all The Mandalorian did and it worked better than nearly any other efforts at Star Wars since the original trilogy. Frankly, it’s incredible that so many screenwriters and directors seem to to struggle with this (hell, even Lucas).

Star Wars books, though? That’s hard mode.
The camera motions do not need to be the same. Gaussian splatting reconstructs the scene in 3d, and you can then render the scene from arbitrary angles, so they just gave it a random camera motion to show you the 3dness of it.

You were downvoted last time because it's still a shit idea.
I’ve found using logic trees with LLMs isn’t necessarily a problem or a deficit. I suppose if they were truly magical and could intuit the right response every time, cool, but I’d always worry about the potential for error and hallucinations.

I’ve found that you can create declarative logic trees from JSON and use that as a prompt for the LLM, which it can then use to traverse the tree accordingly. The only issue I’ve encountered is when it wants to jump to part of the tree which is invalid in the current state. For example, you want to move a user into a flow where certain input is required, but the input hasn’t been provided yet. A transition is suggested to the program by the LLM, but it’s impossible so the LLM has to be prompted that the transition is invalid and to correct itself. If it fails to transition again, a default fallback can be given but it’s not ideal at all.

However, another nice aspect of having the tree declared in advance is that it shows human beings what the system is capable and how it’s intended to be used as well. This has proven to be pretty useful, as letting the LLM call functions it sees fit based on broad intentions and system capabilities leaves humans in the dark a bit.

So, I like the structure and dependability. Maybe one day we can depend on LLM magic and not worry about a team understanding the ins and outs of what should or shouldn’t be possible, but we don’t seem to be there yet at all. That could be in part because my prompts were bad, though.
A) i think that is not true if focus stacking is in use.

B) the light has been modified based on an algorithm, causing the camera to capture different things. Its not just the light as it would be by itself.

In terms of the output of the camera the effect of this is much more significant than the AI stuff being complained about.
That's a fair question to ask. The cheeky answer is that it's not my problem to solve, it's theirs. But I am a product manager, so I'll take a shot. None of these replace what we have. Some of them conflict.

1. Bring back deep presses, which isn't very discoverable, but it's memorable once you get used to it, and make it immediately position the cursor.
2. Allow touching with two fingers. If they're next to each other, immediately position the cursor. Spread them and the selection widens.
3. Allow double-tap to select a word.
4. Double-tap and drag to select word by word.
5. Pinch on a selection to cut.
6. Deep press on a selection and drag-swipe in different directions to copy, cut, and formatting options.
7. Deep press on an unselected spot and drag-swipe in different directions to paste and other options.
If they're getting filtered, who cares?

That case was more about separating industrial and residential land. Zoning is a good thing but putting a cap on development within a zone is what has caused these issues with prices and a lack of housing supply. Everywhere that you'd consider first world has some zoning. Tokyo too of course; you can't just open a landfill next to your neighbors house for example, but at the same time there's a lot of by right development that adds housing capacity if the area can handle height with respect to the available infrastructure.
TL;DR: It's bad it's not GPT-5. If AI could get substantially better, we'd have GPT-5 right now. If they had GPT-5 right now, they would have released GPT-5. They didn't. Therefore it's bad.

I'm a little surprised that's the Gary Marcus hot take on it, guess there's not much room for complaint.

n.b. this continues to follow every public roadmap statement OpenAI has made since GPT-4: they'd be focused primarily on making GPT-4 faster and more efficient for a while, while setting up GPT-5 training, intending release for late 2024/early 2025.

About a year ago, my family was really keen on getting an Alexa. I don't want Bezos spy devices in our home, so I convinced them to let me try making our own. I went with Mycroft on a Pi 4 and it did not go well. The wake word detection was inconsistent, the integrations were lacking and I think it'd been effectively abandoned by that point. I'd intended to contribute to the project and some of the integrations I was struggling with but life intervened and I never got back to it. Also, thankfully, my family forgot about the Alexa.

So to summarize, you're doubting the politics of the IPCC and consequently also its scientific evidence because you don't happen to agree with either and it doesn't fit what you want to believe. You also justify this by saying that the climate system is just too complex to trust models as currently presented by this body and those who agree with it or support it.

You do realize that you've taken exact pages out of the so-called denier playbook (I truly hate that phrase and all of its debate-censorious religious undertones, even though I don't doubt climate change myself) albeit in the other direction, while also criticizing those who practice that very same thing as doubters of climate change worries.

Again, that highlights the stupidity of what's being proposed in TFA. I agree, it would only be if they "got caught". But this isn't like some super secret government program found a way to listen in on your conversations. This is a shitty marketing company saying that they have this access and are making it fully available to any advertiser who wanted to use it. Given that, wouldn't it be trivially easy to verify their claims?
Why can’t it also inspire you? If I can forgo advertising and have ChatGPT tutor my child on geometry and they actually learn it at a fraction of the cost of a human tutor why is that bothersome? Honest question. Why do some many people default to something sinister going on. If this technology shows real efficacy in education at scale take my money.

> As of today, we have zero known instances of abuse

Emphasis on known. The whole point of stalking is to hide the device and not get caught. How would a typical victim even discover it? Or even if they figured out they were stalked, that it was with a Tile device and thus report it?

ID scanning is easy to defeat. This is just ripe for abuse and it's good that Apple/Google took measures to block stalking, even at the expense of anti theft use cases.
Not just all in the same place, but it can cross reference multiple modalities simultaneously and in real-time. How are people not blown away by this?

My mental model for how we do it is the analogy of git/github: git is an open source project that is useful in its own right; github is the opinionated SaaS “glue” between git and an organization.

Our “git” is Plane[1], which is by design fairly unopinionated and general. Our “github” is Jamsocket[2], which is more opinionated about deployment, observability, etc.

We use the open source version of Plane in Jamsocket, and build on top of it in a separate (proprietary) codebase.

EVs aren't all that novel... I mean the first ones were made over 100 years ago. It was just battery tech which was keeping them from being a practical possibility until lithium ion batteries came along, and existing auto manufacturers being lazy to innovate once they did, due to having an oligopoly and large capital investments in other tech.
Indeed they have.

I never noticed that they had that..

Thanks for the tip.
