If every smartphone and desktop OS right now summoned a pop up screen telling everyone on earth what they want their search engine to be, the loss in market share would be a rounding error for Google. If that’s not fair and square win for a company, I don’t know what is.

The only way for Google to lose market share is if Apple changed the default search engine in iOS and redirected people to Bing with an UI that has the same UI as Google search. At that point, people who aren’t tech savvy will think it’s just Google and business is usual for them.

That's an interesting perspective on performance for me as it parallels one of the aspects I enjoyed about performing stand-up comedy regularly for a time (primarily at open mics): getting to observe/analyse/theorize what contributed to whether a particular "bit" "worked" or not--both for myself and others.

For my own performances, I could choose a different word, phrasing, tempo etc and see how/if that affected audience response.

Equally, learning from observing the impact of when other performers did the same, refining their set over multiple weeks.

And, then, also seeing how other factors we had less control over (you know, such as the audience :) ) had an impact: sometimes same line, same delivery, might kill one week but got crickets the next.

Granted, my approach to comedy might lean a little more... analytical than some. :D
The optimizations he was talking about were things like writing in assembly or hand-unrolling loops. It was assumed that you’ve already picked an performant algorithm / architecture and are writing in a performant low level language like C.

Also, your digression about modern compilers is irrelevant to the context of the quote, since Knuth talked about premature optimization at a time when compilers were much simpler than today.
That's a good analogy. I like to think of it as birds and planes both fly, but planes don't flap and birds don't have jet engines.

First of all, you blame peoples' behavior without searching for incentives and shaping forces. This is very "kids these days" argumentation, and specifically blaming greed or an increase in greed is downright utopian. Past ages and societies were no less full of greed, nor can future ages and societies be cleansed of greed. However, unless artificially warped by an outside influence, most social interactions and relationships tend towards cooperation as the best solution (see the Prisoner's Dilemma). Competition is a great example of an emergent interaction which incentivizes "altruism": Forcing prices down, encouraging resource efficiency, punishing waste and fraud.

Second, your idea that our societies are suffering from deregulation is downright delusional. Artificially set interest rates and liquidity injections are the ultimate form of regulation, wherein governments actively decrease the entire population's time preference by inflating away their savings, impoverish everybody but the wealthy by boosting assets, and reduce competition by shoring up the biggest businesses to bloat up even bigger. Remove this ultimate regulation, and with the current conditions, markets would choose staggeringly high interest rates, forcing deflation and thus absolutely demolishing fast money, investment scamming, and real estate speculation overnight.

So no, my line of argumentation does not slide into yours. You actually don't know what you're talking about and rely on appeals to fantastical sentiment.

Inherent in this statement is the assumption that in such types of events, a human would necessarily do better than the machine. Each of these are extremes and I doubt that most human drivers would be able to react to avoid an accident or damage most of the time.

Pu-239 and U-235, the most common elements in nukes, are not very radioactive. Both alpha decay, meaning they're only really dangerous if inhaled as dust (or if they fission, obviously). Pu-239 has a half-life of around 24k years iirc, while U-235 is over 700 million years.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions!

I've hidden the post that I posted few days ago, because still had things to fix and wanted to post at different time, so it was not exactly shown to the people :)

And about getting early adopters ... I've tried many options. Have IG, Threads, FB accounts that I develop in order to have an audience, who could fill this gap.

Tried also to post on lots of different mediums, have also Google Ads running, FB ads running, etc. ... just the only real feedback that I got was here :D

I will take a look into some "UX review" services.

Thanks, once again!

But don’t stop telling new developers to be DRY, it’s really just a way to remind them they’re allowed to make functions.

Just step in when they go too far
That was my point, though. Don't worry about minor possible changes to the code where the performance doesn't matter. For example, if the ++i/i++ is only ever executed at most 10 times in a loop, is on an integer (where the compiler can elide the semantic difference) and the body of the loop is 100x slower than that.

If you measure the code's performance and see the ++i/i++ is consuming a lot of the CPU time then by all means change it, but 99% of the time don't worry about it. Even better, create a benchmark to test the code performance and choose the best variant.

"The humans behind the API possess real intelligence, and by extension, so does the API."

LOL, no.

My calculator can add numbers to get the same answers I do. I use my intelligence to get those answers, so my calculator must also be intelligent? That's quite an extension you've got there. LLMs mimic intelligence by grinding up everything we feed them and spitting back the patterns they have formulated from that data. They have no ability to extrapolate, as we see demonstrated every day when people report the answers to prompts where the LLM spouts self-evident nonsense.

I download a lot of iOS apps using AppRaven and I can tell you that 95% of them are extremely poorly designed from a UI perspective - I'd even call them ugly. A lot of them don't even follow Apple's UI guidelines.
I agree and would add that one of the goals for technical design or architecture work is to choose the architecture that minimizes the friction between best practices. For example if you architecture makes cohesion decrease readability too much then perhaps there is a better architecture. I see this tradeoff pop up from time to time at my work for example when we deal with features that support multiple "flavors" of the same data model, then we have either a bunch of functions for each providing extensibility or a messy root function that provides cohesion. At the end both best practices can be supported by using an interface (or similar construct depending on the language) in which cohesion is provided by logic that only cares about the interface and extensibility is provided by having the right interface (offload details to the specific implementations)

It's not even level 3, and couldn't be certified as such. It's not reliable enough for the person in the driver's seat to focus their full attention elsewhere.

How to Make Semantic Caching Work for Conversational AI
We’ve talked to many developers who try semantic caching with a simple cosine similarity search, see the unsurprisingly poor accuracy from this context-agnostic approach, and kick the can on semantic caching’s cost and latency improvements.

An accurate and effective LLM cache needs to understand the context of the conversation with the user. A context-aware semantic cache requires multi-turn cache keys, named entity recognition, query elaboration, metatags, templatization, function call caching, custom cache scoping, dynamic cache invalidation, and so on – all at lightning fast speeds.
I don't rigorously define reason in the article and I state that it is hard to draw clear boundaries. I'm more relying on the readers intuitive understanding of the idea, which is perhaps not a good thing to do.

I wouldn't say that the question is completely pointless. There are a bunch of datapoints in the post that you can use to inform a conclusion about whether you think LLMs can reason or not.
IcedTech: Id tech fork with virtual texturing, recast navmesh, CaS
> Here's the full transcript of that speech [...] Nowhere does he mention MS-13 by name or even hint at them.

He doesn't mention "animals" in that one either. The "animals" thing resulted from queries to Trump over his policy to deport violent criminals. This video contains 3 clips:

https://www.bitchute.com/video/K7N9aNfp8e2z/

0-0:17 , a clip from a deceptively edited video presentation at the 2020 Democratic Convention where a young girl alleges she is "an orphan because of you" and Trump's only response is to scream "They're animals!"

0:17-0:37 , from a press conference. Animals refers to MS-13 who have committed violent crimes.

0:37-1:04 , from a rally: "So Bob Casey, doesn't mind MS-13 coming in. These are the 'slicers' [slicing gesture], they slice people up and they're... and you remember I told them 'animal' and Nancy Pelosi scolded me. 'How DARE he call another human being an animal.' They're animals!"

So that is the clip the DNC used. I wonder if they told the little girl that Trump was referring to people who stab and cut others. Or just her parents.

Pu-239 is not particularly dangerous, however. It can cause cancer if inhaled in sufficient quantities — which doesn't need much, but is unlikely if it's scattered in the atmosphere.

U-235 is basically harmless.
I think the point is that if we're standardizing a lunar time, it should be done with as much precision as possible. Kind of like how we have very precise benchmarks for what our units of length are in terms of fundamental properties.

Personal computers don't care much about timing down to the nanosecond, but scientific pursuits often need that level of precision, standardizing timing with high precision would make it easier to perform experiments that depend on time correlated comparisons across the lunar surface.

It's still a weak case in my opinion, things can always be refined later.

It seems pretty clear that PG thought Sam was distracted from his YC job and forced him to choose.

That would imply that Sam was adding negative value to YC, and PG replaced him as a result.
It might also be a sparse signal. Like when it has a good authoritative result, it counts positively, but it rarely has a good authoritative match?
They don't stop the incentive though. e.g. TVs that cost several thousand dollars have ads (and almost certainly tracking) built in now. Cars that cost 10s of thousands of dollars track your location and sell it. The advertising industry is a cancer and should be blocked without a second thought. Especially if you have kids; it is a moral imperative to keep ads away from them.

The reality is flipped: block all ads and tracking from your life and help others to do the same. Then companies like Google/Facebook that dump free services onto the market and make it impossible for ethical companies to exist in the space will have to start charging money.
Towards Optimal LLM Quantization
"I wasn’t able to run the benchmarks myself, but the results should serve as an important data point as we get closer to the launch of these Copilot Plus PCs on June 18th. It’s also important to note that, unlike Apple’s MacBook Air, Microsoft’s new Surface Laptop isn’t fan-less, allowing it to squeeze more performance out. Microsoft only compared its Surface Laptop to the MacBook Air M3 — not a MacBook Pro that comes equipped with fans."
It looks like there are not quite there yet.

You don't need any framework or specific web-server to use RoadRunner. RoadRunner can be used with any modern framework, or let's say naked, using only the PSR-7 (which is framework-agnostic) worker for HTTP, but:
RR is not only HTTP, it is waaaay above that: Temporal.io support, various queue drivers, gRPC, TCP, KV, Native WebSockets/Broadcast support, distribute locks (without PHP extensions), etc.
RR doesn't need to be somehow specifically set-up. Nothing special, download -> use :)
It's most likely due to visa and immigration laws.

When a vessel is docked in a port, they are able to disembark and operate under a special visa that lasts the duration of their vessel's stay, and they are required to leave with the vessel when it disembarks from the port. Since the vessel has left the port, their visas are no longer applicable and they would be arrested if they left the vessel.
