This looks really cool, can't wait to check it out. The problem I've seen with other tools I've tinkered with is that they do well with simple stuff like:

"what are my latest orders" -> select * from orders where user_id=x order by created_date

But really struggle when you have a complex schema that requires joins, and basically has no support when you are describing something that needs outer joins or the like. Would be great to hear if DataHerald has cracked that nut or if it's still a challenge for you as well (no judgement if it is, it seems like a hard problem).
This is often the move when the team's spent the money developing something and now the end's in sight, so they want the chance to leave and take the code with them.

Don't know if this is that at all, but it's always worth considering.

Yes, it's a model to infer normal maps from textures. Then you can use a modern PBR renderer on old content and have a better illusion of depth. It doesn't introduce the blockiness of voxels.
How is that going to work with civil VFR aircraft, including helicopters? ADS-B Out still isn't even required in some classes of airspace. The notion of retrofitting every old R-22 with TCAS is ludicrous.
GCVE (managed VMware) is a pretty obscure service, it's only used by the kind of multi billion dollar companies that want to lift and shift their legacy VMware fleets into the cloud as is.

Our two-party system is nothing like "far right vs far left".

A "far left" position would be something along the lines of "we should murder all billionaires, confiscate all money from anyone making more than 1 standard deviation above mean income, nationalize all businesses, and redistribute the profits evenly among all."

A "far right" position would be something along the lines of "we should institute a white-supremacist theocratic government with an autocratic leader unaccountable to anyone else."

One of these is almost precisely the party platform of one of the two major parties in the US. The other is laughed at by nearly anyone with any political acumen, and certainly looks nothing like the party platform of the other major party.

If you don't have a pressing deadline, stop thinking in terms of cards due and completing all of them.

Timebox instead.

Let's say you can afford an hour (for example) of time per day for Anki. Start the hour reviewing what you can before entering new cards. If you don't finish your reviews by the end of the hour, that's okay. They'll be waiting for you tomorrow.

Some days will be spent only reviewing, some days will have very little reviewing and you can spend more time creating new cards for new things you've learned.

It's natural autoregulation. By focusing on just being as consistent as you can, you can make progress without the anxiety.

The backends (FLTK/Gocoa) are using CGo, which currently does not support cross-compiling as far as I know.

So you still need to have a build pipeline with multiple operating systems, signing/notarization tools, etc. :(
I believe the 2014 message wasn't cryptographically proven (e.g. Satoshi's P2P Foundation account could have been hacked.)
"Slop" is a good way to put it. AI seems really useful for creating a huge sludge of "filler" art and words on a particular topic. The quality may or may not be good, but it can produce endless quantity of this slop.

So, if you need to fake a blog by generating 10,000 posts on a topic that are each, say, 1,000 words long, AI is great. If you need to make a web forum that, at a surface level, looks active, AI can generate all the fake posts you need. If you have something you can say in one sentence, but need to make your text 10,000 words in order to appease an algorithm or "look credible" then AI slop is the way to pad it out.
I agree that is a more reasonable use-case. The readme for this tool seems geared toward the business of answering business questions.
I think you'll find that this imagined generality does not go as far as you would like. Mines tend to be on hard ground while farms tend to be on dirt, make a tractor too heavy and it'll get bogged. When the tractor is an hours drive away from the nearest power outlet it just does not seem realistic. Diesel-electric can make a lot of sense, the fuel is the same and it does the same thing but more efficiently and with lower maintenance costs. I don't hate the idea of fully electric, if anyone can make the math work then great, but for the use case I mentioned I highly doubt it.

It's the other way around. Professors usually pace the work out so the students are always spending some time studying their subject.

how do you distinguish enterprise-level question-answering from other kinds of question-answering?

Yes, certainly, and any gaps could be filled in with what the NAGI project provides: https://github.com/sonneveld/nagi. NAGI is a fan-made AGI interpreter created by Nick Sonneveld. He disassembled the Sierra's original AGI interpreter and then used that to create equivalent C source code. It is interesting to compare what he came up with to the actual original AGI interpreter source code from the SQ2 disk. Nick had to make up appropriate names for things, as he obviously didn't have the memory map, but it is easy to see the equivalent functions etc when you compare equivalent modules.

While it would be absurd for me to say that an advertising behemoth like Google has no influence on the decisions of users, it would also be absurd for me to say that Google is somehow empowered to force users to do...anything, at all.

Free will still exists. Nobody from Menlo Park has put a gun to anyone's head to make them use Google to search the web instead of Bing or DDG or Yandex or whatever.

> All it would have taken was some restraint: some combination of being less dominant in the market (i.e., optimizing for a 90%-market-share search engine is different vs. 60%-market-share)

So, let me get this straight: The idea is that Google Search sucks, and the suggested cause for this level of suck is that it is so popular that it causes many publishers to deliberately poison the well using Google-optimized SEO. (Or, more simply: That Google has reached critical mass, and that this is problematic for Google users.)

And, well: I don't disagree. That does appear to be the state of things.

But the apparent proposed corrective action is for it to somehow make itself less popular? By doing what, exactly? Sucking harder? Does it not already suck hard enough?

What a confounding paradox.

Wouldn't a simpler and less paradoxical plan of attack -- that anyone can accomplish completely and absolutely, starting right now -- be to just not use Google search at all for one's own dealings in life?

Apple clarifies iOS 17.5 bug that exposed deleted photos
Cost isn't important. the real question is labor. There are very few qualified crop duster pilots, and so farmers often have trouble getting a pilot when they need it. Few pilots go into this area because it doesn't pay well compared to other commercial flying and it is a lot more dangerous.
I’m not sure what definition of “criminal” you’re using to make that assessment. All the ones I know are based on laws, which are enacted by states. You have to accept the very framing you’re decrying to call anything criminal.

For the civilians like me in the room:

- LRIP: low-rate of initial production, the early phase of weapons development where kinks are being ironed out before mass-production begins

- C-130, C-17: large, US-made cargo aircraft that we have a lot of

- 1IC: first island chain -- Kuril islands, Japan, Taiwan, Phillippines, and Borneo

- 2IC: second island chain -- Guam, Marianas, Bonin islands. 1IC and 2IC are also references to US defense policy in the pacific, namely to contain the USSR (and later, China) by projecting force westward in the pacific, using islands as stopovers for logistics, etc.

- MIC: military industrial complex

- J-20 fighters: a fighter jet, Chengdu J-20, China's counterpart to the F-22

- PL-17 missiles: China-developed long range air-to-air missiles that are capable of hitting/taking down large cargo aircraft like C-130s

- AWACS: airborne warning and control system, a type of radar system capable of detecting (and defend against) incoming missiles. these systems are large and mounted on purpose built aircraft, so I think the "system" part refers to having enough of such aircraft mixed in with your fleet to reliably detect incoming missiles over a large area

- AGM-158B: US-made, a type of long-range air-launched cruise missile that is being adapted for the rapid dragon

- zerg rush to 100 B21 fleet: refers to the US push to develop a long range strategic bomber, the B-21
> They told me the payload on the drones would never make them serious competition.

Why can't drones be as big as a crop duster airplane and run on gas instead of batteries?
Again, you're saying this as if it is a monolith, which it isn't. The information you're asking for isn't something that "the government" as a whole even has, only a very few specific people ever had the information and they're probably dead now. And certainly the CDC/FDA/NIH doesn't have a clue. So distrusting them for something they don't even know about is hand-waving away a whole hell of a lot of nuance here.

You might as well say that you're not going to trust anything Tom Brady says until the NFL tells the truth about Nicole Brown's death. Just because someone is a member of a group doesn't mean they're all acting in lock step.
"Firefox is already a leader in foundational qualities like speed and privacy"

Incorrect? Firefox's default settings run obscure and opaque studies, collect data, save browser passwords and data by default. This is both a privacy and security issue out of the box. Malware can simply copy and upload all of it. Recently there was the courtroom software fake 'fffmpeg.exe' hack that accomplished that.

Firefox should be looked at like software components. Modules that can be used by other projects. Chromium did this which spawned Node.js, Electron. I would very much like to use firefox's tech in my software, but I can't! It's actually easier to compile WebKit to all platforms than to even try.

I hope the best for Mozilla, and perhaps going forward they can figure out how to focus on engineering and next gen.
Yeah, I agree with you.

The argument is that they’re ‘misleading’ because the _dressings_ that are provided with them are surprisingly high in calories. Like, a standard size salad with all the provided dressing is not lower calorie than one of the more traditional menu options - and people may not realize that.

I’d say the salads are pretty good BTW - better than you might think a fast food place would do.

I found their reviews to be a bit too rosy and not highlighting the weak points of the products properly. But I do not find them to be biased.

The most honest source is Voja's My Deep Guide Channel on YouTube. Very detailed and informative reviews.

That's one of the neat things about heat pumps. In my province in Canada about 25% of our energy is used as electricity and 75% is used as heat. This is ignoring cars, looking at residential, commercial, and industrial. The majority of our electricity generation comes from coal and natural gas, with some hydro and some wind/solar. People are very keen to close down the polluting power plants but are generally quite quiet on the topic of converting our residential and commercial heating to electric even though that covers 75% of our energy use.

But with heat pumps (backed up by resistive heating since we get cold enough to need it), we can still get a win there. Natural gas and coal generation can be ~30% efficient, but heat pumps can readily have a 4:1 COP or better. Even factoring in the inefficient generation of electricity we can still heat our homes with net less energy and then focus on replacing our electricity generation with less polluting sources (eg a mix of nuclear baseload, wind+solar+battery, and natural gas as a fallback)
You are taking a very narrow view of what a drone is. The MQ-9A Reaper drone has an almost 2 ton payload capacity and flight endurance of 27 hours. I can totally envision a purpose built drone that could mount a crop dusters spray rig. It just most likely wouldn't be an electric quadcopter.
> And don't get me started on the price for publication and for readers that supposedly fund this "detailed peer review process" that misses so many obvious flaws.

Readers don't fund the peer review process. People on the editorial board and peer reviewers do their job as a community service and have nothing to do with the inflated subscription prices.
You're welcome to believe whatever you want, but no, eyewitness testimony is not very credible.

Go look up Aaron Scheerhorn; 6 eyewitnesses testified that he stabbed someone to death in public and he was convicted... right up until they did DNA tests.

Or look at the Satanic Panic [1]. ~12,000 people made allegations that they were involved in some kind of satanic abuse or ritual, and police haven't found any evidence for any of them. Several claimed that they watched someone die, and then it turns out that person is still alive.

Eyewitnesses are wrong in far more significant ways than misordering events. Psychology studies have repeatedly shown that it is trivial to implant memories in eyewitnesses, and that eyewitness recall accuracy floats around 85% even for events they did actually see. Seriously, Google it. There are hundreds of cases made on eyewitness testimony that were later overturned by direct evidence like DNA, it's not hard to find one.

She may not even be lying, just wrong.

Even presuming "default credibility of an eyewitness", that's a very, very low standard of evidence. ChatGPT will answer you correctly more often than eyewitnesses recall things correctly.

Sorry just seeing this! There are various aspects of how it handles ingestion spikes -
1. The ingestion api writes to blob stores, which are horizontally scalable. Only when an ingestion finishes, we write the metadata to the replicated state machine.
2. The replicated state machine takes 100k IOPs on most commodity machines, and they can vertically scale.
3. The extractors can autoscale based on the number of tasks in the system.
4. The ingestion server cluster can autoscale also based on the amount of IOPs they are doing.

Hope this answers the question :)

> These decisions seems more about federalism?

They are in part about federalism and in part about the absence of a right to have a verdict reviewed if it was arrived at properly, irrespective of new evidence discovered later.

Were such a right to exist under the Constitutiom, federalism would no longer require the federal courts to stay out of state cases involving such claims, since there would br a justiciable question of federal law.

Genre has always been a mess. For a while Primus was a ID3Tag genre in unto themselves. In general, that type of inherently fuzzy categorical will always be a mess. I’m old enough to remember the great alt.music.industrial wars over whether Nine Inch Nails was industrial or not.[0]

The problem with ID3 back when I was ripping and encoding stuff back at the turn of the century was that they were fixed length fields. Using CDDB better as a source of truth, but even it had serious inconsistency issues. Not from a data quality perspective, but from a data format perspective. It quickly became a pile of inconsistencies, particularly around artists and multiple artist albums. In the end, I ended up extending it with a better format I called eCDDB. Of course there was no one interested in fixing the format, because CDDB got sold some megacorp, and FreeDB simply ignored the obvious problems.

> lightweight ag robots

Lightweight isn't an advantage. Big is an advantage. Soil compaction is sub-linear with weight, but linear with tire width. As such the more you can do from the one set of tire tracks the better. Bonus if you can use the exact same tire tracks as everything else that crossed the field, since those tracks are already damaged and you can't really do much more. This every place the tire touched the ground is a big negative of tracks - sure you get less compaction in the track, but when you turn at the end of the field you touch a lot more ground and so overall are worse.

See a soil expert for more. There are lots of different soil types and many different considerations. I gave some generally rules that are typically true, but there are often other considerations and compromises. There is no one size fits all.
How would you phrase it better. Sorry if it sounds confrontational to ask this question, but I can’t think of spot anything out of sorts with this phrasing.
> In this section, we aim to understand the sources of GPT’s predictive ability.

Oh boy... I wonder how a neural net trained with unsupervised learning has a predictive ability. I wonder where that comes from... Unfortunately, the article doesn't seem to reach a conclusion.

> We implement the CoT prompt as follows. We instruct the model to take on the role of a financial analyst whose task is to perform financial statement analysis. The model is then instructed to (i) identify notable changes in certain financial statement items, and (ii) compute key financial ratios without explicitly limiting the set of ratios that need to be computed. When calculating the ratios, we prompt the model to state the formulae first, and then perform simple computations. The model is also instructed to (iii) provide economic interpretations of the computed ratios.

Who will tell them how an LLM works and that the neural net does not calculate anything? It only predicts the next token in a sentence of a calculation if it's been loss-minimized for that specific calculation.

It looks like these authors are discovering large language models as if they are some alien animal. When they are mathematically describable and really not so mysterious prediction machines.

At least the article is fairly benign. It's about the type of article that would pass as research in my MBA school as well... It doesn't reach any groundbreaking conclusions except to demonstrate that the guys have "probed" the model. Which I think is good. It's uninformed but not very misleading.
> It makes sense to have interventions prioritized by ROI

The thing about masks is that the investment is minimal. Those 5% are still an incredibly large number that makes it a non-brainier.

If it decreases another order of magnitude, it may need some analysis. The OP has a point, but it's way beyond the plausibility window.
