Yep, and the only acknowledgement to llama.cpp is that llama.cpp is a "supported backend" (see last page of their GitHub repo readme)

And the acknowledgement was only added after community outcry. If not for that they would have kept on as if llama.cpp didn't exist.

Accepting risk and believing it doesn’t apply to you are two vastly different things. I take it you don’t fly? How about driving? There is assumedly some line you draw for acceptable vs unacceptable risk

I don’t really understand what you’re trying to say here or what you’re suggesting we should do
Justifying doing something wrong by stating that someone else did equally bad or worse is not a valid argument.

By this reasoning, some random EU country could raise co2 emissions, stating that China is even worse. Problem is: the Planet does not care about artificial, man made boundaries.

To your last question: Yes, you should feel responsible. Who else could be? The point is to be conscious about what you do. Not everybody can be the best version of oneself, all the time, me included. However, denial is probably the worst of all reactions to this problem.
Between so many options to vote on Israel could get the max points from each country with less than 5% of votes. Its disingenuous to portray this as if a majority of Europeans support Israel.
Your blame is misplaced on these (imaginary) "modern UX experts". Yes, there are a lot of posts on medium about "UX" (by people with job titles like "UX guru, copy writer") that amount to "draw the rest of the \S+ app". I have never seen one that says "screwing users over at every opportunity is good UX", though.

The thing about the "maybe later" option is that it at least indicates what is going to happen when you click it.
By the time that dialog was being designed, the 'aggressively recommend the new, worse Edge browser' "feature" was already set in stone.

I don't think it's believable that any number of these UX experts at Microsoft would have the power to change something as big as how the new, worse Edge browser is to be "recommended" to users.

I could believe an employee with a UX-related job title strongly recommended that all such choices are worded to explain what they do.
Things like airplanes require a steady supply of spare parts, so they effectively already do. (It just takes a while to kick in.)

But, yeah, I’ve wondered that too, especially for advanced armaments.
I didn’t claim anything other than a correlation, and no, I don’t see why causation is important but correlation is not. What decision hinges on this?

You can parse the whole expression / statement and decide what it is.

You have to be careful with infix operators, but there is always Haskell's solution of adding backticks for infix names.

So
add(a, b)
is the same as
a `add` b

But without joking, a _real_ solution to infix operator names would be a backslash as prefix, as pseudo-Latex-style, so
a \add b

Having done a couple indie games myself over the years, I think you're addressing many of the pain points of building such a game. However the REAL problem as an indie gamer is getting a marketing/get-the-word-out campaign such that said game produces enough income to cover the cost of making it.

Will you be adding a "marketing" add-on to this to help developers actually get their games noticed and played?
> They are selling to everyone that pays. They also never have claimed to have anything like a "responsible selling of weapons" policy.

This is incorrect [0]:

> no arms transfer will be authorized where the United States assesses that it is more likely than not that the arms to be transferred will be used by the recipient to commit, facilitate the recipients’ commission of, or to aggravate risks that the recipient will commit: genocide; crimes against humanity; grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions of 1949, including attacks intentionally directed against civilian objects or civilians protected as such; or other serious violations of international humanitarian or human rights law, including serious acts of gender‑based violence or serious acts of violence against children.

> ... a somewhat more reasonable comparison would be to compare it to the death and disaster caused by the US industrialisation, which I again suspect will outnumber the rest given the much longer timeframe

I was giving a counter-argument to your point that no other countries actions compares to the US giving amnesty to perpetrators of genocide. The fact is that both China and Russia did worse: they actively supported genocides against Uyghurs and Ukrainians.

There's pretty wide variety in the performance of regular expressions between different languages, and efficient implementations will often recognize when your regular expression has a literal suffix/prefix, and optimize accordingly.

That doesn't help you if you're stuck using a library that doesn't perform those optimizations, but it means you need to be careful about importing your assumptions about regex performance from one language to another.

Do you compare the risk of sitting still during a long-haul flight and possibly developing a DVT to the risk of being killed by turbulence? I would argue that moving around on the plane actually reduces your chance of dying, as it lowers the very real risk of a DVT-related stroke or pulmonary embolism while keeping the risk of dying in strong turbulence still extremely low.
Given that you mentioned the 3rd party software, you probably know this, but I think even the 2019 MacBook Pro supported working with the laptop closed--but it requires the laptop to be charging, otherwise it will just go to sleep.

I, too, downloaded the 3rd party app ("Amphetamine"?) to allow it to stay on when closed and unplugged. As far as I can tell, it doesn't work at all.
Not everything is a UI issue though. Some software just is complex. There's nothing wrong with asking for help, be it with an AI or with a colleague.

That seems odd since I also don't see how this differs from other approaches being published. Except what everyone else calls an Image Encoder (ie: some type of pre-trained VAE architecture) they call a tokenizer. The Apple MM1 paper used ViT-L for example for it's image encoder and then C-Abstractor for it's image tokenizer.
Where have they passed this off as her?
Do you not see the irony in your post? Just like the people you lambaste, you also do not have a level-headed opinion, based on a 3rd party account and not personal experience.

I would put "getting my values from editorialized stories and school teachers" as one step below "getting my values from Reddit and Twitter" on the "how divorced from reality are my sensibilities" scale. Better, but not great.
Singapore B773 near Bangkok turbulence kills one and injures 30
I travelled a lot by plane back when I was working in Luxembourg going back and forth from Italy.

I'll always remember Luxair's tiny Bombardier DHC-8-400 [0], lot of turbulence on those every single time, I guess because they are so small compared to other planes. I had the impression that they could be easily thrown around in the sky, and don't get me started on the noise of those propellers! The combination of the two made it quite the experience.

Yup... I still don't understand why people decide to not put on their seatbelt while being seated. It's not like you have a lot more freedom of movement without the seatbelt? And it might just save your life in events like this one.
You know, I've been traveling a lot by place for the past 12 years, and its always been my personal terror, to have no seatbelt and the place hitting a turbulence throwing me on the ceiling... now I know it can happen.
Well, I suspect a lot of the UK's startup stats are still connected to its universities. The page you linked shows London with a massive index lead over the EU. When you scroll down to the lists of notable companies, only ~10% of them are UK-based. The contrast of London to the rest of Britain is also much starker than for some other EU hubs.

It's questionable whether the "startup hub seed" would have germinated had the UK not been in the EU back when. It's also questionable whether the plant will wither now that it's out. All else held equal, the exits of UK startups are probably more acquisitional and trans-oceanic. This adds to risks and costs.

Either way, my argument was not startup-centric. It's pretty clear that an island company faces more market hurdles than a continental one. The difference will widen as the EU integrates further.

I use Firebase extensively for my side projects and worked at one YC startup that initially built on top of Firebase.

To answer your question, what Firebase does particularly well is provide a really well-integrated full-stack development experience; one of the best ones, IMO. It's similar to Amplify on AWS which really just binds together multiple AWS backend services, but I find Firebase more pleasant to work with compared to Amplify. I would also make the case that it has some similarity to Azure Functions which skews more PaaS in its depth of integration than GCP Cloud Functions or AWS Lambda.

There's no reason any team couldn't just integrate with OpenAI or Llama3 on Together.ai or Fireworks.ai or run their own instance, but the DX on the Firebase platform is designed for teams to move fast and looking at the docs, I can appreciate the work the team put into making the experience feel seamless and reduce a lot of the repetitive code structures teams would otherwise have to build themselves to leverage the AI APIs.

Aside: I think Firebase is probably one of the best products out there for indie and weekend hackers building projects. The full-stack integration and local emulator are so well done and promote building with speed while still being scalable. The free credits are really generous and I run a ton of workloads in GCP for pennies. For some work, I'll drop into containers in Cloud Run and it still feels really easy to tie it all together. This is in contrast to working with Amplify, for example, which feels very "heavy" to begin with and then clunky as soon as you need to drop out into the underlying AWS infrastructure (ostensibly because CloudFormation is itself quite clunky).

I do a lot of solo building and Firebase lets me focus on just shipping stuff. In the last year alone, I've built at least 4 fully functioning products on Firebase (https://turas.app, https://coderev.app, https://usemeld.com, https://zeeq.ai); some with hundreds of users. It's a really productive platform.

Is Firebase at danger of being retired to the Google graveyard? I don't think so because fundamentally, Firebase is a set of wrappers around fundamental Google infrastructure (the same way Amplify wraps Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, etc.) so it wouldn't make sense to axe Firebase since it's just wrapping Cloud Functions, Firestore, Cloud Storage, etc.); it makes those services more accessible for application development. I could see them axing specific features of Firebase (which they have), but the core features that wrap infrastructure aren't at risk, IMO.
Eh, it's not just Tech, most company has a consent issue, and you could easily argue that capitalism as a consent issue (not saying that alternative also don't have one).
Rarely do businesses have any incentive to care about consent. In many case they actually have a vested interest in not caring about your consent, as it can remove one big barrier to profit. It is easier to illustrate these days with all the IA company harvesting data with 0 consent, it is true, but you find the same behavior in most industry. Consent is seen as a customer service issue, something extra, not something that is due.

> we did it to ourselves

Most people don't know that we did it. They still happily click on "accept all" and blame it on EU to need to do that. They don't know what the heck is that, and why they should understand what's written there.

When they are asked cleanly, and simply whether they want to share their data to thousands of shady companies, about only a quarter choose yes. That's why Facebook had to force everybody in the EU to choose between paying and accepting it.
I am sure that I am being very naive, but prior to evacuating the island, why not try some "crazy" stuff to prevent the war?

Why not officially rename the Republic of China (the current official name of Taiwan) to Taiwan, and make a big deal out of giving up any claims on China, so that the CCP saves face when making the practical decision of not invading?

Of all the people that have been suggested to be satoshi - csw is the one that comes closest to what I would expect them to be. As sort of tragic character - lots of random academic degrees but no career - probably hard to work with, arrogant, rambling and terrible at public speaking.

The start of Bitcoin with a pseudo academic whitepaper and the grandiosity of the first message encoded rather than just going straight to code like a normal open source project hints at this.
I wonder whether on average it's less risky on transatlantic flights to spend as much time out of your seat going to the bathroom, standing around, and stretching as possible vs. as much time buckled in as possible.

My guess is lethal turbulence is so rare, and things like deep-vein thrombosis are so common compare to that rarity, that it's not even close.

So let's say the media started a campaign promoting wearing a helmet all the time. The anti-helmet people would be painted as reckless, feckless, and generally deplorable. All the celebrities would endorse wearing a helmet at all times. There would be New York Times editorials about "those people".

Questions:

Is this still about risk mitigation? If yes, are you at risk now? Why don't you wear your bike helmet at work all day? (never know when a ceiling tile could fall down)

Would your opinion change following this hypothetical media blitz? Would you hop on the bandwagon and decry the irresponsibility of the anti-helmet folks?

If you think about this for a second before hitting that downwards pointing triangle, does this dumb example mean that it's actually more about what's socially acceptable than actual safety? Why would you feel dumb wearing a helmet all day now, and dumb for not wearing it in that world?

> Isn't it entirely possible Alexander simply went with the flow of wiser, more experienced men telling him what to do?

During battle he led his own element and consistently made the right calls when doing so. The wiser men where hundreds to thousands of meters away leading the rest of his army, with effectively no way to communicate with him.

> Surely that, if nothing else, is far better attributed to his officer corps then him? They'd been doing this successfully for 20 years before he took over, they had lots of practice at it and all Alexander had to do was not upset the apple cart.

The scale of the operations during these 20 years were nothing like the campaign he led. They operated entirely in Greece, the furthest they operated from their homes was in the hundreds of kilometers, in pretty much known terrain. Alexander led them all the way to India.

> Or another example - one man cannot organize a cavalry detachment mid-battle and send it to aid a failing flank.

One man cannot organize and send it but can definitely lead it to do that. He made the decision to aid the failing flank, not his officers. His officers just followed him. If he chose to chase down the fleeing enemy they would just do that.

There are countless examples through out history of leaders chasing down fleeing
enemies only to find their flank collapsed and the battle lost. Similarly there are countless examples of leaders overextending in their campaign running out of supplies.

The gist is that you can't really argue with his track record. He won all the battles he fought and took down an empire several times larger than his kingdom with an army of about 50000 men. He was handed with a very effective military system, but he wielded it perfectly, that takes great skill.

The preference for Ollama over llama.cpp is almost certainly due to having a better user experience.

We believe that in the future, Platform Engineering and Prompt Engineering, among other AI application development processes, can spark even more innovations.
Well, other than it being from the Daily Wire, it's at least readable. Why post something that can't be read without a subscription?

With the Daily Wire I can at least read something and filter for the known conservative bias, and use ad-block to remove the copious inline ads. With Bloomberg, I get one paragraph. It's a practically useless link to share, unless you're promoting Bloomberg subscriptions.
Reminds me of the last six months before I switched from JPEG to WebP on my web sites. I still had a 2013 Mac Mini that didn’t support WebP in Safari because Apple hadn’t built WebP into the system libraries and they chose not to support my machine. That was enough reason for me to not make the switch (any economic benefit is diminished if you have to keep two copies of each image.)

I felt so infantilized because something that is just a userspace thing is locked to the OS.

To their credit, Apple did eventually enable WebP for those mac’s but I hate being dependent like that and having to develop software for people who are likewise dependent.

Yeah I thought that way too at first, it's an interesting take. These days maybe ML could help auto-coach promising content producers. For the other take: maybe pre-caching content that's more cost saving to cache than it is to not cache it can be aided by ML too. But replicating smaller libraries of content at all regional replica nodes is probably more straight forward at first.
I'm simply stating the facts of history, which your primary criticism of seems to be that they're too realistic. Describing a viewpoint as contested doesn't really mean anything, you are here contesting it, so it's self-evidently contested. That doesn't lend any credibility to what you're saying. Laws without enforcers are just somebody's ideas, and having some esoteric philosophical objection this doesn't change the reality of the situation.

I could issue an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, and hold a trial for him myself. Perhaps I could also contrive some philosophical justification for why this would be a deeply meaningful act, but the reality of daily life would continue without any regard for such a gesture.
