About your last paragraph: The key to me about Facebook, and eventually, Instagram, the visual is simply more powerful to humans than written words. This is why people started chasing fame with good looks as soon as the Internet "went visual".

I had a thought last week: When I was in high school (very early Internet years), older people told me the "popular" people will fade away when you go to university. For most part, in my experience, this was true. I realised last week that visual social media allows "high school popular people" (conventionally attractive, for the most part) to stay that way forever. When you look at most social media influencers, there isn't very much special about them, except them seem like the type of person who was popular in high school. For most normies, that is enough to give them more attention than someone else.

It's not a fallacy. You're saying that masks work and if they don't you're just doing it wrong. Under what conditions, exactly, would you accept that masks don't work or are so unwieldy and ineffective as to be impractical? People wore masks over many years, and studied it, and found no conclusive evidence that they're worth it. Your argument is basically a No True Scotsman. If it didn't work for those mask wearers, they weren't True Mask Wearers and their masks were No True Masks. Nevermind that the masks were available, people did in fact wear them, and wearing a mask is simple (and it's supposed to be very simple). If a study was performed, it was No True Study, especially if it concluded that masks aren't worth it.
Try out openpipe. I am working with it at my current company and have seen some good results.
And yet those countries led the way in the record shattering 2023. Even if you look within the EU there are big differences between the countries, where some like Poland got serious about it less than 10 years ago. They will continue to grow rapidly.

Take a look at outside of developed countries and you will see the rest of the world is still far behind, so there's still a huge untapped market. People follow what other people do. There are other factors too (battery prices going down, electrification etc).
Yes.

I have non-English human data annotated in a format that was designed for a very specific health-related study. LLMs haver never seen these annotations, non-English LLMs are not a top priority for companies, and we can only use offline-first ones for data privacy reasons.

In this scenario fine-tuning a general purpose LM works wonders.
Also you can do it at scale with SparkNLP: https://sparknlp.org

Many of the use cases I've seen for LLMs would actually be better with NLP.

Actually corporations are naturally balanced by the free market: the competition and their customers (whose needs they must serve in order to even exist) keep them very well in check.

Regulations pretend to "improve" this but inevitably skew the balance to the side of safety, leading to ossification, stagnation, loss of competition and lack of innovation.

It's a complicated solution. On top of deployment of renewable energy production, it requires building efuel manufacturing and distribution network. Even if that's doable, it's not something that can be built immediately. And even if built, I don't see how it can compete in impoverished areas with just cutting down whatever is around.

And in the end, it only solves cooking. Electrification solves many more problems at once, and notably refrigeration.

You don't. You can trust it or not. The findings are for them, not you. They're doing us a favour saying this happened in the first place.
Sorry your society has poor controls on public service. Sounds like a problem with the constitution; too bad it makes you sound like a crank.
Unfortunately we all agree to live under this rule of law though. "Innocent" legally only means you weren't convicted, and whether standards like beyond a shadow of a doubt was met is up to the jury and later the appeals court.

I agree the system is terrible, if even one innocent person can be found guilty and punished or even killed then the system is broken in my opinion. We can't fix that one-off though, and targeting one state's use of the death penalty is only going after a more obvious symptom while ignoring the root cause.

While I will always support seeing a person wrongfully convicted go free, I'd much prefer a fundamental revisit of our legal system so we don't have to catch mistakes like that after the fact.

ICQ was the best IM to ever exist. It was - at least here - pitifully killed by MSN, a much worse tool that had the advantage to be included in Windows.

I still have to find a tool as good as ICQ was. Of course, there were bugs and I would expect more from it today (I'm thinking of the app back in 2004), like video support, but still, no one bested it UX and features.

So much of our global computing infrastructure is outside the US that when people complain about lack of tech industry outside US, I find it laughable. I hate that tech has been reduced to only the software side, mostly because it makes a lot of money.

Arranging a fixed set of lyrics to a fixed tune and doing it brilliantly is pretty genius. Or do you want to argue that Lehrer isn’t a genius? I mean, okay, but do you really want to play intelligence match ‘em with Tom Lehrer? I’m no genius, but I know who I’m betting on.

It’s a dual core MCU that runs at around 240MHz.

One of the main limitation tends to be to be around pushing pixels to the screen - most displays are serial (SPI) based which tops out at 80Mhz.

The other limitation is a lack of hardware video decoding. Some of the latest ESP32 chips are RISCV based and have SIMD instructions which can improve decode performance.

But if you pick an easy to decode codec (MJPEG) is popular. The you can get decent performance with the size of displays available.

The crucial parts of that are "closed-form" and "standard". The analytic solution is "non-standard" because it involves the kind of power series that nobody knows or cares about (because they are only about 100 years old and have no real useful applications in engineering).

A similar claim is that roots of polynomials of degree 5 (and over) have no "general closed form solution" (with, as usual, the implicit qualification: "in terms of functions I'm currently comfortable with because I've seen them a lot"). That doesn't mean it's a difficult problem.

The two problems have in common that they are significantly harder than their smaller versions (two bodies, or degree 4). Historically, people spent a lot of time trying to find solutions for the larger problems in terms of the same functions that can be used to solve the smaller problems (conic sections, radicals). That turned out to not be possible. This is the historical origin of the meme "three body problem is unsolvable".

Why is stress contributing to diseases materialism-inconsistent? In all cases it has a physical mechanism through which the disease is caused.

> Idealism, materialism, dualism, etc. concern theory of mind

Idealism/dualism used to be about other things too. Stepping away from them allowed us to find physics. Now it is concerned with theory of mind only because the other things are explained by physics.

> believed in Aristotle’s takes, too—by being Christian.

I was talking about the actually measurable things he was saying about physics, his takes on soul being successful is irrelevant, since we still do not have any experiment proving that soul exists.

> “does consciousness arise from atoms?”

Science is concerned with the question "whether there exists a Turing machine, output of which is indistinguishable from behavior of a human". This is what most scientists and materialists mean when talking about conciousness.

The other questions are specifically crafted in a way to not have answers, so that idealism/dualism etc. can pretend that they do something useful, while not doing anything.

How many generations is "a few?" Contraceptives have been used for thousands of years, and people still want to do the boogie without the baby.

The Romans literally picked a plant to extinction that was, reportedly, a very effective contraceptive that would allow reproduction once it was stopped.

Ancient Egyptians had a mix that utilized crocodile dung because croc dung has spermicide qualities. I don't want to know how they figured that out.
It's great you bring up cmp, helps to understand why 4x128 is not necessarily as good as 1x512. Quicksort, hardly a 'weird kernel', does comparisons followed by compaction. Because comparisons return a predicate, which have only a single write port, we can only do 128 bits of comparisons per cycle. Ouch.

However, masking can still help our VQSort [1], for example when writing the rightmost partition right to left without stomping on subsequent elements, or in a sorting network, only updating every second element.

"unlink" has a specific meaning, and it doesn't refer to the way a file is assembled out of scattered blocks. Sorry if this is already familiar to you, but from what you say it may not be. On Unix/Linux filesystems, a link is a directory entry pointing at a file, and there may be more than one such link. Unlinking a file looks like deleting the file from the user's perspective, but if another directory has a link to it, the file is not affected - not deleted, not split in to scattered blocks. Hence a normal copy of the filesystem will copy it over - a block copy is not required.
Honestly, bravo at BBC for whoever green-lighted this story. It puts the finger right on where it hurts for small publishers and illustrates Googles new way of thinking.

I am sad but also frightened for small creators and those who simply share interesting information once in a while. Google is bulldozing these people away from anywhere near the AI answers or the ten blue links below it.

The article didn’t mention it but people who got hit in September with the helpful update have still not recovered. Not a single site. This is the update that HouseFresh was hit with.

It’s insane.
Wouldn't that argument extend to every government? Every state has to decide what level of force or violence is allowed and in what situations, and the power given to individuals will never match the power of the state.

It sounds more like an anarchist argument than an anti-Texas argument.
Great artists steal, as in, make things their own. The computer programs can't extrapolate without producing artefact-dominated visual noise: they can only interpolate ("copy"). (Besides, you're affirming the consequent.)
TekUI integration with a builder might be an interesting feature. It's a bit dated but the latest release compiles just fine and examples work. Years ago I tried it also on a small Allwinner ARM board with output to the framebuffer (no Xorg) and it worked fine.

An alternative is to plainly agree with them: "I know, that was dumb, wasn't it?" or "You're right, I probably shouldn't"or just "I'll think about it"

This means they can't shame / guilt you for doing something suboptimal and I believe this is often their goal - establish superiority by inducing guilt or shame.

It's like opting to not play the game with them. And usually, that's the winning move.
I would contend that is not the only reason. Plenty of times the bigger companies are just buying up their competitors. The most famous example being Instagram. Instagram could have been it's own big company, but now it's part of a monopoly. And that's just a big example which happened semi amicably. There are plenty of documented cases of VC funded companies throwing their weight around.
Over the past several months I find Google search has become completely useless to find anything other than online retailers. I thought it may have been just something about my profile, but this article suggests it may have been an update on their end.

Fair point about movprfx, I understand they were short on encoding space. This can be mitigated by using *_x versions of intrinsics where masks are not used.

The sizeless headache is anyway there if you want to support RISC-V V, which we do.

One other data point in favor of SVE: its backend in Highway is only 6KLOC vs NEON's 10K, with a similar ratio of #if (indicating less fragmentation, more orthogonal).
The ESP32 is 802.11n over 2.4ghz with no MIMO, so the bandwidth will always be bad.
Most people in this thread probably have the money and technical skills to buy a domain and set everything up, but it misses the point: this is supposed to be "infrastructure" that everyone can use without any hassle (and likely for free), rather than private to an individual.

Of course, like others have pointed out, shared "temp email" services are more likely to be blocked.

About their GPT-4 api:

> No need to sign up for an API key, no need to worry about rate limits, and no need to worry about security.

Who is paying for the compute? I'm pretty sure that cannot run locally on my device. What is the security model that makes it so you can say I don't need to worry about it? The same goes for the filesystem and key-value storage they mentioned. If they are just local to the device then how is it an alternative to the cloud?

> That's it! No servers, no DevOps, no API keys, no security issues.

Saying "no security issues" is ridiculously overconfident and I would like to see the security model that makes them so confident.

I tried to run their chat example and just got server errors from the puter app.

ORM doesn't really excuse you from understanding what's going on. In a way using ORM is more difficult because you have to understand both what sql you want and how to get the framework to generate it for you.

Of course there's a lot of incompetent people who have no idea what they're doing, if it seems to work they ship it. That leads to a lot of nonsensical bullshit and unnecessarily slow systems.

It baffles me that a company like espressif wouldn’t publish complete API specs of their radio hardware . I could see why they may not want their proprietary source out there, as it might make it easier for competitors to make similar chips, but what is the downside to enabling someone to write software particular to your hardware?

It seems like they would have everything to gain and nothing to lose from this?

Anyone shed any light on the motivations here?

Yeah, contrary to the full open source Eclipse and Netbeans, JetBrains wants people to pay for InteliJ and Clion, when doing JNI development.

This is good. Because it now will make way more sense to compete with Google on searching the internet, since they screwed it up. They’re are panicking and defending their bottom-line instead of innovating and leading. I think internet search is now ripe for disruption. Still need deep pockets but it’s now increasingly easier to be much better at search than Google.
Yeah, I remember how it felt when I first used Google. You could search something like "xck-956-fg" and some obscure part would show up. Obviously they have amazing technology as some of that "magic" is still there when you can search items by just taking a picture, so this is a choice on their part to have horrible search.

I use Kagi now as I can tune my searches with rankings and the results are quite good. I am sure Google could create the best and most amazing search experience with little effort. I would happily pay $20 a month for that service.

For now, Kagi and LLMs have brought some of the utility back for search and I am optimistic as the technology of AI improves that information retrieval will significantly improve as search providers will be forced to compete and the technology will evolve
