The "advertising on windows" thing must be localized. I'm not in the US, I run windows 11, and I've never seen an ad.

Then again I've also turned off telemetry, and I run it fine despite not having a Microsoft account. Both of which are often listed as "requirements" by folks here.

So I'm guessing some windows behaviour is localized.
> Capitalism actually works if you let it.

This argument is always that if the government would just step out of the way the private market would provide for everyone and there would be full employment. As though somehow things like minimum wages and OSHA are what keep capitalism from reaching its full potential. As though things were better in the 19th century.

I've read Friedman and Hayek. The world they wanted is a terrifying world indeed.
Would this be suitable for a VPN-like setup with some remote servers and distributed home dev machines? In other words, does the 'homelab' in the title imply LAN-specific functionality?

Most existing big tech datacenters use mostly carbon free or renewable energy.

The vast majority of datacenters currently in production will be entirely powered by carbon free energy. From best to worst:

1. Meta: 100% renewable

2. AWS: 90% renewable

3. Google: 64% renewable with 100% renewable energy credit matching

4. Azure: 100% carbon neutral

The 7 year expiry time exists so IRS lets you give RSUs different tax treatment than regular stock. The idea is because they can expire, they could be worth nothing. And so the IRS cannot expect you to pay taxes on RSUs until the double-trigger event occurs.

But none of this means the company can just cancel your RSUs unless you agreed to them being cancelled for specific reason in your equity agreement. I have worked at several big pre-IPO companies that had big exits. I made sure there were no clawback clauses in the equity contract before accepting the offers.

Do any notable researchers in the field share this sentiment?
One thing I recently realized is how many protocols are basically the same but ended up in different fields of application by accident.

SMTP can transfer arbitrary blocks of text data from a@b to x@y. Usenet can broadcast arbitrary blocks of text data with just a few mandatory headers, so why don't we use NNTP for blogging? You can put mails in your own outbox via IMAP, where the mail server can pick them up and send them. Why don't browsers load HTML via FTP? ActivityPub is basically SMTP if it was JSON (it's so much SMTP that it has a field for 'envelope sender' which was previously thought to be a specific quirk of SMTP), so why don't we use it for email? Or why don't we use SMTP for chatting? Actually, wait, Delta Chat literally does that. Or why don't we use XMPP for email? Or, I don't know, Apache Kafka or Redis. A Kafka server allows you to publish arbitrary messages and stores them until they're retrieved, which is also what a mail server or a chat server does. The only real difference is how authorization works. If you run IRC over Kafka, or IRC over NNTP, you won't lose messages when you disconnect - sounds pretty sensible. Actually what is the difference between NNTP and Apache Kafka, anyway? You get the idea...
Totally legal. You can have your doctor prescribe 50mg Naltrexone and 300mg Bupropion and you can take them at the same time every day. It's the same drugs in the same ratios. Contrave is not novel in any way. There's substantial prior art. And yet a patent was granted to cover this combination and prevent anyone else from taking two generic drugs and combining them into one pill.
As much as science is a religion.
Ultimately what matters most is what incentives the police have. If they have bad incentives, fancy new tech won't actually be used for public benefits
Wow, I remember messing with cdecl at least a solid decade ago (if I’m not mistaken). I’m surprised the project is still active!

We need to cut emissions, but AGI research/development is going to increase energy usage dramatically amongst all the players involved. For now, this mostly means more natural gas power. Thus accelerating our emissions instead of reducing them. For something that will not reduce the emissions long term.

IMO, we should pause this for now and put these resources (human and capital) towards reducing the impact of global warming.

How do you know there isn't a very clear term in the employment agreement stating that upon termination you'll be asked to sign an NDA on these terms?
What happened is American puritanism. Some places are a lot more "chill" about this stuff. I remember visiting Hungary in the late 90s and seeing a huge billboard ad for toothpaste featuring a fully topless woman. Unfortunately the US is the center of power for the internet, so much of the internet reflects American puritanical norms. Just take a look at Apple's restrictive policies on the subject.

Architects spend a lot of time doing "detailing", it's inevitable part of design and construction. Most of is simply not very good, or at least average human effort has hard time competing against nature. There's many aesthetically pleasing "tectonics", designs lacking in detail (ornamentation), but delightful in perception. Not that nature is always great, but on average it does feel more pleasing.
Anime is much better at action animation than anyone else, simply because noone else remembers how to do it because they've stopped trying.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to find this, but there's an episode of Steven Universe with an extended reference to a scene from Kill la Kill of a transformation sequence.

It looks maybe 1% as good; not only that, but the character turns into a pure white silhouette for the entire transformation because it doesn't have a character design suitable for being transformed. (Instead it has one designed to make the animators' lives easier.)
Have you looked at how yr.no plots their forecasts on the phone. I find the graph view to be very helpful in the winter when planning ski days or days to skip. They must have updated the charts recently since they are different from what I remember this winter but it looks similar.

Technically, no words are being distributed here. (At least according to OpenAI lawyers.)
Following the legal defense of these companies, the employees wouldn’t be distributing any words. They’re distributing a model.
The C abstract machine is slightly funkier than unsafe Rust (things like C lacking a way to do signed integer overflow without UB or needing to adhere to strict aliasing in C), so I would expect that lowering to unsafe Rust would be slightly more likely to be correct.

I've used it and in some cases it's taking days and weeks of development away to get to testing the market.

In some cases the lock in is what it is for now because a particular model in reality is so far ahead, or staying ahead.

It doesn't mean other options won't become available, but it does matter to relate your need to your actions.

Getting something working consistently for example might be the first goal, and then learning to implement it with multiple models might be secondary. The chances of that increase the later other models are explored in some cases.

It should be possible to tell pretty quickly if something works in a particular model that's the leader, how others compare to it and how to track the rate of change between them.
> because those instruction sets are somewhat secret, I think

The GPU ISAs are known (e.g. the PTX compiler for NVidia is open source and has a backend in LLVM). The main problem is that the GPU ISA changes with every GPU hardware generation and manufacturer, so if you want to support Nvidia 3xxx + 4xxx + AMD VLIW + AMD GCN + ... you have to use the common demoninator GLSL/HLSL/SPIR-V/whatever.

> why they didn’t emulate Flipper at a low enough level to use the precompiled shaders directly.

They did. Originally the GPU emulator was done in the CPU, and in 2017, the GPU emulator itself was moved into a shader ("ubershader").

The console game itself does not include shaders in text format like many PC games do.
Not to bring the all pervasive AI topic into this discussion, but I think the best hope we have for finding that unification depends on an AI superintelligence. I wonder if we've reached the limit of what a singular human mind can push.
Keyframes in digital video means a different thing from keyframes in animation; they could be related but usually wouldn't be. You can hide animation keyframes with a number of techniques, for instance by having different "keyframes" for different parts of a scene so the video doesn't show them all at the same instant.

(Rough generalization, but anime is more likely to do this with foreground vs background elements, while Western animation would do this with different characters. In anime the keyframe artists tend to draw every character in the frame, and put more of a personal touch on them, so it's easier to see their individual styles.)

Since this is a "sakuga" dataset, Mitsuo Iso is one of the most famous examples of really natural looking movement here.

When they're bad at it you get this effect where characters constantly seem to "settle" into a keyframe pose that looks realistic but too static, and then immediately go back into inbetweening that moves a lot but isn't physically possible. I feel like B-grade Disney stuff is the worst here but don't have an example on hand.

> I think the benefits of a capitalist healthcare system are underappreciated

What benefits? The benefit of mortgaging your home to pay for cancer treatment? The benefit of having your access to healthcare directly tied to your employment (especially considering that many wage workers are kept from working more than 35 hours a week lest they become eligible for employee sponsored health plans)? The benefit of having folks like Martin Shkreli corner the market on generic drugs and raise the prices, not because manufacturing costs have risen but because they are seeking windfall profits?

Seriously, what benefits? We have this silly notion that capitalism provides us with choice, and that this choice is a desirable good in itself. Choice is overrated. Health care is a commodity. You walk into any doctor with a broken arm, diabetes, COVID, pneumonia, depression, or any one of hundreds of other maladies, and the treatment for those will be the same regardless of the physician or the hospital or the clinic.

I don't see why this comment needed a flag or so many uncharitable replies (though you could have expressed yourself more charitably too).

I understand your sentiment, but I think a lot of idealistic people will disagree - it's nice to think that a person should stand up for justice, no matter what.

In reality, I wonder how many people attempt to do this and end up regretting, because of what you mentioned.
If the constitution protected you from this sort of thing then there'd be no such thing as "trade secret" laws.

The argument about LLMs not being copyright laundromats making sense hinges the scale and non-specificity of training. There's a difference between "LLM reproduced this piece of copyrighted work because it memorized it from being fed literally half the internet", vs. "LLM was intentionally trained to specifically reproduce variants of this particular work". Whatever one's stances on the former case, the latter case would be plain infringing copyrights and admitting to it.

In other words: GPT-4 gets to get away with occasionally spitting out something real verbatim. Llama2-7b-finetune-NYTArticles does not.

A good start to fixing the shortage of healthcare providers would be to permit more medical schools, allow more students in per year, and reduce the cost of an MD. Because medical school costs so much, more and more graduates are going into specialties because they won't make enough to cover their loans and live comfortably as a family doctor or general practitioner.

because the amount of data you can train any model on is limited. After training your AI model on the 1st quadrillion images, trillion videos, where do you find the next quadrillion? This is going to be the limitation on top of law of diminishing returns
does that mean you could also split the set in half multiple times then run it on each half of a half (etc) and combine it with its other half?

that would seem simpler to me.

edit: oh but then you would need to keep the results which defeats the purpose

Here’s my opinion:

1. In the US, we tried to make alcohol illegal, and failed so abjectly that nobody wants to try that again.

2. There’s a decent argument to be made, that in a counterfactual world where alcohol hadn’t been discovered yet, that if we invented it today we would immediately label it so obviously harmful that it should be banned. But we don’t live in that world.

3. While it’s hard to discuss whether this or that individual psychoactive drug should be legal, it’s relatively easier to evaluate whether they’re more or less harmful than alcohol. For example, coffee: clearly less; heroin: clearly more.

4. Besides the fact that prohibition failed, everyone sort of likes freedom? Like, yes, there must be limits, but those limits should be so much on the far side of what ordinary people consider acceptable that they never even have to think, “will the government let me do this?” That seems like a good guiding principle.

5. So here is the Schelling point: everything less harmful than, up to and including alcohol, should be legal, and everything more harmful should be illegal.

6. Like most Schelling points, the results favored by this rule are arbitrary, but the reason we ought to stick to it is not that it’s a good rule per se, but rather that it’s a rule which is easier to find agreement on.

So everything less harmful than alcohol should be legal, and everything more harmful should be banned. Thanks for reading. Have fun, everyone!
AGI led utopia will be pretty easy if we're all under contractual obligation to not criticize any aspect of it, lest we be banished back to "work"
this is incorrect. Private company RSUs often have double trigger with second trigger being IPO/exit. The "semi" vested RSUs can expire if the company does not IPO in 7 years.
Will definitely test it, it's definitely in the early stages and more basic stuff oriented but after using the majority of the fancy and more feature complete tools available today like Caddy and Traefik, a GUI is more than welcome.
Cool, just feed the ChatGPT+ the same half the Internet plus OpenAI founders' anecdotes about the company.

I'm not sure if I agree, but I much prefer this comment to your previous one. Cheers!
If the courts enforce the agreement then that is state action.

So I think an argument can be made that NDAs and similar agreements should not be enforceable by courts.

Seems absurd that somehow the scale being massive makes it better somehow

You would think having a massive scale just means it has infringed even more copyrights, and therefore should be in even more hot water
No, it's a reverse proxy.

See, they aren't distributing the words, and good luck proving that any specific words went into training the model.

We depended so much on you and Tom's in those halcyon days. The knowledge that we could always turn to your website to find out what was going on, in the motherboard market; then ram, hard drives, gpu's and so on - was a relief.
Those early hard hitting reviews, where you held nothing back, were likely as much a boost to the increasing quality and speed of computer construction and distribution, as any research department at Intel, Microsoft, apple, and other manufactures.

You may or may not agree with it, but that's the only thing that makes it different - scale and non-specificity. Same thing that worked for search engines, for example.
