Nvidia's entire DGX and Maxwell product line was subsidized by Aurora's precursor, and Nvidia worked very closely with Argonne to solve a number of problems in GPU concurrency.

A lot of the foundational models used today were trained on Aurora and its predecessors, as well as tangential research such as containerizarion (eg. In the early 2010s, a joint research project between ANL's Computing team, one of the world's largest Pharma companies, and Nvidia became one of the largest customers of Docker and sponsored a lot of it's development)

Show HN: I made an iOS App to dumbify the smart phone
Hey HN,

The app is called Limpio and it uses ios widgets to create a simplified app launcher, mimicking the look and feel of the lite phone. The app has cool launcher pals that pop up before going into the launched apps. In more technical terms, apple doesn't allow direct opens of custom url schemes in widgets, but I can get around this by using ios deep links to pass the url schemes from the widget to the main app and then direct the user to the external app and show the loading screen. I have plans to make the loading screen more customizable by adding words of encouragement and other cool digital characters. I also plan to have custom widget background colors, font sizes, font styles, change app name (finished), change app url scheme (finished), and drag to organize apps in the home page (finished). I have finished a few but my laptop is having a hard time keeping x code running.

Previously, I found a couple of apps that are minimal app launchers, however; they were all paid options and didn't have the flexibility and customization that I was looking for so I created the app myself.

Let me know if you have any suggestions for where to take this, and if the app is something you'd be interested in.

Nim is not memory safe and doesn't technically claim to be. What they claim is to provide memory safe features, but then so does C++ and a lot of other languages.
The cross compatibility is only for anti-stalking features, and is probably implemented in such a way that you couldn't use it to implement a tracker that works in both systems.

While this is focused with researching topics, chatbots are used for more beyond that as we see with the growing popularity of platforms like character.ai. What's the alternative for people who have no one else to talk to? A lot of the people using chatbots in the first place is because they have no friends, this is their last resort but as we see, this might be making the problem worse.
How do you make sure they don't get their hands on the actual phone? Do you hide it?
You should try ollama and see what happens. On the same hardware, with the same q8_0 quantization on both models, I'm seeing 77 tokens/s with Llama3-8B and 72 tokens/s with CodeGemma-7B, which is a very surprising result to me, but they are still very similar in performance.
I still regularly test before going to gatherings and events.
> I noticed that the AI in the demo seems to be very rambly

That's been a major issue for me with LLMs this whole time. They can't just give me an answer, they have to spout a whole preamble that usually includes spitting my query back at me and trying to impress me with how many words it's saying, like it's a requirement. You can tell it e.g. "don't give me anything other than the list" but it's annoying to have to ask it every time.

Every AI chat needs a "no yap mode"

That's idiotic. They are wasting time harassing people, and searching physical devices for material that can be easily transmitted between any two internet-connected points on the planet. The "bad guys" they are trying to bust will do exactly that.

It's like still doing body searches for drugs when remote matter replicators have become ubiquitous.
which is why I prefer platforms like c.ai that are not just bland bots designed for customer service. actually entertaining.

It's helpful to know, even when people are not particularly at risk for severe illness. Even mild illness isn't fun to spread around.
That’s because Asian societies spent the last several generations harnessing that collectivist impulse to socialize people into not having kids. The idea that limiting reproduction was essential to lifting society out of poverty was drummed into generations of Asians: https://www.prb.org/resources/did-south-koreas-population-po...

Family planning was one of my dad’s specialities in public health, and most of our family friends are in that field. At a party a few years ago, someone jokingly asked if my wife and I planned to have a fourth kid, and someone reflexively interjected “nobody needs four kids.”

Arguably it was a necessary policy at the time, but has probably doomed countries like Korea and Japan to extinction.

I have another question. So far on the clickbench leaderboard it's 15x slower than baseline. The number 1 place is 1.67 slower the baseline.

I assume that's DataFusion speed. What's the plan to improve upon it?
Not sure I agree. The way you interact with LLMs in context of programming has to be tuned to the LLM. Information has to be cut down to show just what is important and context windows are a bit of a red herring right now, as LLMs tend to derail its solution from the target completely, the more information is at play. For some this is more trouble than it's worth.

In certain languages it's almost magical in terms of showing you possible solutions and being a rubber ducky to bounce your own logic off of. (Python, JavaScript, TypeScript)
In certain languages it is hopelessly useless beyond commenting on basic syntax. (GLSL)
hosting an mp4 online is trivial these days, but you post videos to YouTube because that's where they'll get seen.
No, the correct way is to have it reason from first principles:

1. "Think about what are the underlying principles for evaluating the truthiness of statements like 'X' - list them out, explain why you chose each one, what tradeoffs you made, why you believe it's the right tradeoff in this case"

2. Start a new conversation and make the system prompt be that set of principles

3. In the user prompt, ask it to decompose X into a weighted formula for those principles and give a sub-score for each principle.

4. Finally, based on the weighted sum, ask it to determine if X is true or not true, and ask it to provide a confidence score between 0 and 1 for its response
"So that I have the maximum amount of space available for downloading tons of beheading videos over the hotel Wi-Fi when I get to my room in New York."

More seriously, I would say that the wiped phone has a minimal amount of data in it, which has the advantage that if it is has to be searched, the search time will be minimized.

What stage company do you think would get the most value out of a tool like this? Is there a specific round you’re targeting?
The move order matters, for detecting threefold or fivefold repetition, or the 50 move draw limit.

To adhere to that properly, you need to somehow represent all previous positions that could be reached again, and the number of times it has occurred. Of course you can get that by including all the move history, but it's also possible to prune it a lot, like any capture or pawn move can flush the history since no previous position is reachable. But it's still a bit more complicated than just representing the current position.

FEN doesn't account for this, deliberately leaving the history out of scope. It's a matter of preference whether you'd want a tool like this to handle those cases.
CEO of Tile / Life360 here.

We decided to opt out of the Google and Apple finding networks and the new proposed standards because it completely ruins the ability to use Bluetooth devices to deter theft. If you put an AirTag on say your bike, and thief steals it, they will get a notification and immediately just find and disable it.

We actually built a (controversial) feature that lets you opt out of anti-stalking features if you scan a government ID. As of today, we have zero known instances of abuse—the friction of scanning an ID is enough to make a bad guy think twice, and a committed stalker can just go get an LTE-enabled stealth GPS device on Amazon. It is crazy that the press and regulators focus on Bluetooth devices when actual stalking devices are readily available.

Some people are commenting on how small our network is. People don't realize that Life360 is on 1 in 8 phones in the US. We are huge outside of tech bubbles. If you are at an airport, mall, or anywhere with any meaningful density of people, our network is on par with the big guys. There is a J curve to the benefits of increasing density, and outside of rural areas we essentially have complete coverage.

Beyond this, we just announced a new satellite-to-Bluetooth network this morning, and we plan to open it up to developers in 2025. It won't matter where you lose your stuff, we will be able to find it. And thieves won't.

Well yea, but many big players do that: Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Duo, Okta, etc.

You use 1Password as your authenticator as well? Doesn't that make it not multi-factor if it contains both your password and authentication?
Hey,
I'm Kenny and I realized I was spending a lot of time on my phone. So I built my first IOS Application to dumbify the smart phone (Limpio). I have been increasingly spending more time on my phone and was looking for ways to be more productive by making my phone less appealing. I wasn't prepared to completely give up my phone and switch to the lite phone, but I also wanted to do something about it. So, I coded this app to be create a less appealing environment in order decrease screen time.

So far it has been working for me, having my average week screen time go down from 5 hours to 3. I forgot to put the link on the post, but here it is: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/limpio/id6502041177?ref=today....

Thank you
Indeed. Having worked in change management for a time and having to use change management software at larger companies... fuck. It's all so bad. Slow and buggy because each time you fill out a field, it has to validate it before you can even move onto the next step (don't hit tab before the validation!). And made worse with single-page-webapp-tabs that wipe your changes from the previous tab if you don't speak the correct incantation. It's all like that!

DBA changes were always the worst because it requires basically every team to fill out one of those forms. So DBAs basically turn into de facto change managers. Not sure I blame them for trying to find ways to get around all that nonsense.
I have 4 repos.

All the backend work is in one repo. The monolith has everything including the core API services, background/batch processing, etc.

I have a mobile repo but we aren't ready at all yet to work on mobile. It is a flutter app, but mostly proof of concept type stuff.

Then there's 2 repos for web UI. One is a next js app for generating applications for customers, and the other is a standard react SPA which is what customers use to build their applications.

I've returned to SQL after years of "lazily" enjoying NoSQL and I gotta say, SQL would do well to stop relying on a thesaurus. It feels like I'm writing COBOL. I don't understand why I need to feed English to a Zork parser when I know exactly what operation to perform. An opcode with some arguments would be preferable to writing a poem and hoping it gets interpreted how I meant.

You know how online dating services are never incentivized to actually find you a long-term partner, because then you stop being a customer?

Imagine a company providing a chatbot for lonely people where the company is literally financially incentivized to keep you as lonely as possible so that you never stop paying. Behold, the future! (Or should I say, "Behold, the present!", because this is all that outrage-baiting algorithms like Facebook and Twitter amount to in the end anyway.)
>I never understood why Covid 19 tests are easily available, but other corona/influenza/rhino/roto/nora/adeno/entero/etc are not.

Simplest answer: because due to the contagious nature of the virus there was a large economic incentive to being able to rapidly and accurately assess whether someone was sick, and because many businesses/governments had explicit rules around attending while infected with COVID. Similar resources and rules were not in place for other viruses.

Full answer: because it's a novel, actively evolving virus that poses significant health risks and is significantly more contagious than the other viruses you mentioned.

Hello from the Wirral!
i mean honestly STEM is pretty over saturated too, at least at the junior level, which is what fresh college grads would be at. it’s tough to get any non lab job with a chem/bio undergrad. shit, a close friend of mine had a 3.9+ gpa, honors, did good research for 3 years in undergrad, did a bunch of other crazy shit and he still got denied from every grad school he applied to in bio, including the school we got the undergrad from. i did a degree in math and i was able to get a job but i also did two minors to be employable.
> I say the quiet part out loud: psychology as a field and the papers they produce is 90% charlatans and people who didn’t have the intellect for math or science. There’s some good ones, but it’s tough to stand in field with shaky ground.

While I share some of your sentiment here (truly), I think 90% is way too high a number for the field as a whole, and also believe you're likely discounting "emotional intelligence" and the boots-on-ground work that non-academic psychology specialists are doing for public health and mental health in general. IOW, I am *equally* skeptical of armchair psychology people who are so dismissive about "real" psychology people.

Everybody has an opinion, and peer reviews etc. are how we root out "intuition" from clinically proven phenomena. EMDR is a great example of a recent-ish innovation that is still being tested clinically on its efficacy, but shows some promising signs thus far AFAICT. I'm certainly glad somebody is testing it etc. so that we can incorporate it into folks' care, and would not consider the people doing so "90% charlatans" nor would I find them exclusively in some alleged 10% of "non-charlatans"
I was demonstrating how bad that LLMs are at simple math.

If I just asked a list of ages in order, there was probably some training data for it to recite. By asking for it to reverse it, it was forcing the LLM to do math.

I also knew the answer was simple with Python.

On another note, with ChatGPT 4, you can ask it to verify its answers on the internet and to provide sources

You can in free version as well.
We don't (often) convey our actual experience as meat sacks running wetware. If an LLM did communicate its actual experience as a machine running code, it would be a rare human who could empathize.

If an LLM talks like a human being despite not being one, that might not be enough to grant it legal status or citizenship, but it's probably enough that some set of people would find it to be enough to relate to it.
CEO of Tile/Life360 here - I made a meta comment but I'll call out that because all Life360 users now scan for Tiles, and we are on 1 in 8 phones in the US, our network is actually huge. The small network thing is a misperception. We bought Tile knowing we could supercharge their previously small network.
Disagree. Even going by your example, AlphaGo uses many iterations of a "dumb" model in order to achieve incredible performance. If it had to single shot the solution with a model 100x bigger, it would perform worse. All that matters is the frontier of intelligence vs cost, and larger foundation models aren't necessarily going to push that frontier forward. AlphaCode hints at that.
Yea, it's all alarming. It's so ridiculous. None of these companies provide any real value, but people salivate over performing corruption for them and throwing money at them. I haven't ever understood.
Which is obviously not true, since most people who get pulled aside are let in after a few questions anyway.
Never thought I'd go for a Tile, but you make a compelling case.
I agree with you but what’s your intuition behind why stronger sense of self equates better reasoning abilities across all tasks including those that are abstract ?
"Specification-compatible" is doing a LOT of heavy lifting here. Sure, there are plenty of well-behaved companies making standards-compliant beacons, but there's nothing preventing proprietary approaches. Even with RPA it should be possible to implement "unwanted tracking" alerts for BT devices showing any given profile in their advertising data.
How is having the knowledge of presence (or absence) of Covid-19 measurably different than having influenza, rhinovirus, or any of another dozen respiratory viruses? Are you testing for all of them?

This is my opinion, but that sounds totally unnecessary and so singularly focused to render itself ineffective (I understand the altruistic part). There are people in my office that continue to wear N95 respirators, alone, in their cubicle on a daily basis. I feel sorry for their personal burden because at this point it's clear they are never going to stop. At some point you have to let go for life to have the ability to return to normal.

This theater made sense when Covid was mostly lethal, which set it apart from other common illnesses. This is no longer the case.
Seems like that thread has some potentially malicious links.
And I think diagnostic tests are generally regarded as requiring the interpretation of a professional.
So you’re saying stay home when you have a cold and especially when you have a fever?
>Visibility means nothing if target doesn’t care.

Sounds like it's just that the deal has changed, so they don't like the new deal and have decided to opt out.
There's an excellent term for this: sycophancy, "where a model answers subjective questions in a way that flatters their user’s stated beliefs".

Fair. But note that while not a "compiler kit", VBCC has front/backend separation. This is why I mentioned it.

Of course, as it isn't open source, third party backends/frontends are unlikely to occur.

Fortunately, despite not open source, the code and documentation can still be studied.
> I feel like a lot of the big GPU clusters that companies like Meta are using would score highly

Some might, but most of the work done on GPU compute was subsidized by DoE Exascale projects like Aurora, like my anecdote about the DGX product line above.
Good thing you can tell the AI to speak to you in a robotic monotone and even drop IQ if you feel the need to speak with a dumb bot. Or abstain from using the service completely. You have choices. Use them.
The freedom to just up and move jobs isn't equally available for everyone.

Anyone who doesn't have a permanent right to work (eg on some kind of visa) can find it hard to switch jobs.

If you live in a place where Healthcare is tied to your employer, then that can cause problems, too, if you/a family member have some kind of chronic/ongoing medical issues.

If your salary package has some kind of deferred portion, then that can also make switching difficult.
How can I get my Android to stop notifying me about a specific AirTag? I searched quite a bit and couldn't figure it out.

I get these unwanted alerts every time my wife and I travel with luggage that she's placed AirTags into. I guess my phone thinks the owner isn't present because she doesn't have an iPhone. We both have Android phones, and she also has an iPad which she used to configure the AirTags but it's normally turned off.
Programmers are sometimes accused of wanting to play god and bring the computer to life, usually out of some motive like loneliness. Its kind of ironic I see engineers do better treating computers as the mechanical devices they are, and its regular people who want to anthropomorphize everything.

Free will and freedom are two separate things. The ability to make choices and decisions is separate from your ability to execute them.

That’s why it’s called free “will”. Will is an internal concept, it’s your desire determination, etc for something to happen.

Randomness is not really central to this discussion. What matters is the source, not whether the source is random or deterministic.
