This is incorrect. If they are an investment then they should go up and down in relation to the value of being able to live wherever the property is. The big issue now is all places (but some more than others) are artificially constraining supply with excessive regulation and restriction on what one can do with their property. We need to largely get rid of that excessive regulation (i.e. much less strict zoning allowing much higher density, with drastically restricted ability of neighbours to interfere with what is built and much quicker turn around time on permits to get building rolling as fast as possible). Doing that will destroy a lot of "value" of houses that are only constrained because of these rules. Other places will go up in value as much higher density is allowed more easily on land in higher demand areas.

What your house would cost to replace is only very tangentially relevant to what its resale value is.

> In college, I (and I'm sure many others here) learned that OOP was about "abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism".

This is what I was referring to. A problem that follows is that many of the Go4 patterns solve problems that OOP causes in the first place (obviously many others are universal).

I have a friend who uses ChatGPT for writing quick policy statement for her clients (mostly schools). I have a friend who uses it to create images and descriptions for DnD adventures. LLMs have uses.

The problem I see is, who can an "application" be anything but a little window onto the base abilities of ChatGPT and so effectively offers nothing more to an end-user. The final result still have to be checked and regular end-users have to do their own prompt.

Edit: Also, I should also say that anyone who's designing LLM apps that, rather than being end-user tools, are effectively gate keepers to getting action or "a human" from a company deserves a big "f* you" 'cause that approach is evil.
Depends whether you're optimizing for program size or runtime speed.
Standardised doesn't mean popular. It means you know what --help, --enable-foo, DESTDIR, etc. will do and that you can rely on that format. It means packaging can rely on the same flow and common options for each package using autoconf. It then means that unless you've got very specific needs, your packaging can be abstracted to "here's the source, the name and the version - go!" and that's the abstraction many distros provide.

(Purposely terrible writing, but par for the course in popular science.)

More specifically: although it’s certainly plausible there’s a threshold in nebular dynamics for solid object formation because clouds of less total mass fail to congeal, I see no reason a prior why this mass threshold would coincide with the mass necessary to start fusion (i.e., the lightest brown dwarfs). And since we have seen brown dwarfs just above the threshold, but those below it would have been invisible to use before the past ~decade, it seems completely natural to find free-floating planets just below the threshold now that we have acquired the technology to see them.

There’s another huge way to put a dent it and let people live where they want: work from home works. The pandemic proved it. It’s not a 100% solution but there is seldom a 100% solution that doesn’t involve totalitarian government since not everyone wants to live in the city in concrete towers.

Like the best Apple designs, the iPod redefined its product category. And it put Apple back on track for ARM-based mobile devices.

> There’s no way people were stocking those things with music they paid for

Indeed. But you could also rip physical CDs, and the iTunes store managed to sell a lot of 99 cent song downloads, as it was legal, easier than messing with file sharing, and cheaper than buying a whole CD just for a single song.

Arguably the music industry messed up greatly by not making CD singles cheap and ubiquitous (and solving issues with 3" CDs in slot-loading car players, etc.)
If by slider you mean range slider, they only really work out-of-the-box for integer values.

If by slider you mean carousel, HTML/CSS-only carousels lack a full range of interactivity without...scripting

And both those things don't really have anything to do with application frameworks.
Google and Bing (so DuckDuckGo as well) seem to like searching for synonyms of search terms and returning the most popular results, thinking popular means relevant.

I'd also drive more if roads weren't full of "dickheads" and impaired drivers. You have exactly the same kind of issues while driving.

I don't understand your double standard, you should apply the same rules for driving and public transits.

It's still funny that the text of a message can exist without being a message itself. That must make sense in the specific context of Outlook, but it shows that the conceptual design of the software does not match how we want to think about the domain abstractly.

Every config file becomes something close to a scripting language at some point. Build files, video game maps, etc.

Eg. You have a game with enemies spawning in some circumstance. The file that defines the level of the game now needs a bit of logic to specify that the enemy spawns given conditions. If you don't use a scripting language you'll have a field in that file that takes parameters for the conditions. Now do this 1000 times over for all the other little things you may want in the level. Pretty soon your file that defines the level is slowly becoming a shitty adhoc scripting language.
That one was so good. I was completely ignorant of the topic before that episode aired.
I think the counterpart question to that is, given how space-inefficient cars are, how many actual people do you enable by adding that car capacity, and how does that number compare to even basic public transit options?
Coding (Therapy)
You are dismissing the weight factor a bit too quickly. Many EVs regardless of their size weight as much as some ICE heavy pickups, especially as the trend of driving SUVs hasn't disappeared with EVs.
What you are missing is that every time we widen roads to allow more car throughput we are making every other type of transit and mobility less attractive. Busy streets with big parking lots are unpleasant to walk or bike along, so people just drive to their destinations instead, which makes the street even busier, louder, and smellier starts this cycle all over again. Every time a road is widened or a new parking lot is added the city also becomes less dense, making getting anywhere useful more time consuming. Drivers have to spend longer on the road to get where they want to go, public transit gets more expensive as routes get longer, and walking and biking quickly become too time consuming. There is just a maximum density that cars can support which works totally fine for suburbs but breaks down in denser cities. Personally I think Park and Ride programs are the most reasonable compromise.
That’s a decision of employers, not policy makers
I should have explained this in the post, but didnt—"hexadecimal sucks" was the title of the slide from Dan Kaminsky's presentation way back in 2006.

Since then, by default ssh shows the SHA256 fingerprint in base64 (minus trailing `=` padding), rather than an MD5 fingerprint in hex. I probably shouldn't have elided this detail since it's confusing.

Titles are hard.
I do not think you need a philosophical degree to handle this. A law degree is enough. Just add “legally” before “exist” and everything makes its perfect legal sense again.

Indeed, since this person… I mean message - is not in the list of ones legally allowed to exist, you can’t hire it, can’t fire it, the only thing you can do with it legally - is to kill it. But that does not prevent you from searching its pockets first and making use of its valuables.

If the market believed there was growth potential, their annual returns would not be trailing SP500 by 3%+ per year.

Amazon’s market cap grew by much more than the SP500, because the market (correctly) anticipated Amazon being able to earn profits.

Spotify’s ability to earn decent profits is not a given, and in my opinion, their whole business is currently being a negotiating chip between the 3 businesses that own music copyrights (Warner/Universal/Sony) and Apple/Amazon/Alphabet.

actually, I realise now that the implementation I shared in my previous comment is a generic one. At some point, I decided to make a variation of it, specialised for this board. The reason wasn't the number of colors, though, it was to have better control of the colors of the bottom and top rows.

And I also realise that, contrary to what I said above, I do not set the colors on the left and right sides. So that will be an easy modification.

After that, I do go breadth first. But I do so by looking at all neighbours of the current tile, simply by taking them in the order given by my internal graph. Instead I should just take those that are connected to another tile that has been already visited.

So thank you for those advice, that's super helpful, I really appreciate. I had to look up "non-surveyable" as well, I'm learning a lot here. That said, I'm having a hard time understanding "as are forced (up to isomorphism)", is that something you could clarify?
> I need 3 or 4 colors, and in some cases I need 5

4 should be enough https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_color_theorem, but the alternating color in the border may be a problem. It's an interesting variant for nerdsniping. I guess it's possible to find a 4 color version but it may need too much backtraking.

A well-trained 8B model will already be over-saturated with information from the start. It will therefore easily forget much old information when fine-tuning it with new materials. It just doesn't have the capacity to take in too much information.

Don't get me wrong. I think an 70B or larger model would be worth fine-tuning, especially if it can be grown further with more layers.

Car dependency is a symptom. People aren't car dependent because they're addicted to cars, they're car dependent because where they live is super spread out.

Cars are a problem but forcefully excising them is both a political nonstarter and just makes life harder for everyone. People will choose to not own cars once it's feasible to do so.

It's not their core business model and so far LLMs aren't very profitable. Investing a ton of money into a whole new business area with heavy competition that may be profitable eventually while not swimming in cash is often how companies die.
I’ve repeated myself because you don’t seem to be reading the words: masquerades, faux-pointers. I never claimed they were low level. I said they were pretending to be because pointers are completely unnecessary in a garbage collected language.
The problem with roads and highways is that they are inherently low-capacity, so it's very easy to fill them with traffic.

Isn't all of this just equivalent to a pointer? "This variable doesn't exist" is a reasonable error message when you're, for example, dereferencing a pointer with a wrong data type: it could be the equivalent of "there's no integer at this address" or "this integer doesn't exist".

The problematic "this" is just an indexical in that case, and it works fine in terms of ontology, just like we might say "this house doesn't exist", while pointing at a burned up lot. Any fluent speaker of English will understand that, just like how they'd understand a description of the Parthenon as "this is a great temple", while looking at a ruin.

"This email doesn't exist" is not really problematic; the metadata persists but the body and subject have been deleted, plus whatever else constitutes "a message" in this schema. We can refer to it, because the pointers still exist, but the value at the address is gone.

The house might not exist anymore, but the address still does.
Wow. They quoted me in the article.

Their stance on developer access made it DOA on day 1.

All apps are flying blind when you're multitasking: apps can't even use iOS style marker tracking unless you run them in "immersive mode", which makes them the only app running.
That combined with no camera access at all, extremely laggy hand tracking, and an inability to do room scale without a constant passthrough make it somehow less capable than a Quest 3.

I bought a Quest 3 after my Vision Pro and it's a legitimately better piece of hardware except for the displays, and passthrough (which is gimped in usage on AVP). Even the lenses are better on the Q3. Meta has a commanding lead in VR after all

More on topic: Considering how inefficient Chinese characters are in general (but especially evident in computing) as one of the few languages where characters have no direct relation to phonetics, I wonder why there hasn’t been an effort to modernize it similar to Hiragana in Japan. Well, considering how Chinese is basically Kanji, why not just adopt Japanese?

Just because that's the example given (by someone who's trying to understand the concept, no less) doesn't mean that that's the only thing that the language feature is usable for.

Trait objects (read: runtime polymorphism) have their pros and cons just as generics (read: parametric polymorphism) have theirs. Not everything can be known at compile time, and that's perfectly okay.
Perhaps a library vs a commercial book store might have worked as a better analogy. The queue theory part of it I think breaks down a lot. Induced demand is not only about queue theory, but also choosing between options.

In short though, induced demand is somewhat simple. If it takes 10 minutes to drive and 30 minutes to take a bus, then I drive. If it takes 30 minutes to drive and 10 minutes to take a bus, then I take the bus. Eventually enough people choose to drive, or take a bus, that that mode becomes congested/inconvenient enough that people start making other choices. In other words, there are some people who avoid highways during rush hour because the traffic jams are bad. If the highway is widened, then they would join the rush hour once again and be part of the traffic jams. Induced demand is about taking away the reason why people avoid something, and thereby doing so they change their behavior to start doing that thing.
And in a lot of cases it does, but the important point is that the argument needs to be framed as you've put it: how do we get everyone what the most of what they want [transportation/books]? Most cost efficiently being implied of course. Being dogmatically "anti" or "pro" anything is looking at the problem wrong.

To the specific example, removing self checkout lanes makes sense if the removal adds more value than the lanes were providing, but not if they are providing more value than their opportunity cost -- perhaps because of woefully understaffed registers and a buggy mobile checkout app the self-checkout machines are responsible for a large portion of checkouts. Which would make them counter productive to remove.

It might be worth considering just changing the rules for the pawn to deal with this. It's hard to tell what it means to move "forward" on a board like this, even after understanding the indicators.

Maybe pawns could just move horizontally/vertically and attack diagonally, regardless of color?
We work in some pretty serious domains and try to stay away from fine tuning:

- Most of our accuracy ROI is from agentic loops over top models, and dynamic RAG example injection goes far here that the relative lift of adding fine-tuning isn't worth the many costs

- A lot of fine-tuning is for OSS models that do worse than agentic loops over the proprietary GPT4/Opus3

- For distribution, it's a lot easier to deploy for pluggable top APIs without requiring fine-tuning, e.g., "connect to your gpt4/opus3 + for dumber-but-bigger tasks, groq"

- The resources we could put into fine-tuning are better spent on RAG, agentic loops, prompts/evals, etc

We do use tuned smaller dumber models, such as part of a coarse relevancy filter in a firehose pipeline... but these are outliers. Likewise, we expect to be using them more... but again, for rarer cases and only after we've exhausted other stuff. I'm guessing as we do more fine-tuning, it'll be more on embeddings than LLMs, at least until OSS models get a lot better.
Relatively. The amount of diacritics on Vietnamese surpasses European languages so text rendering becomes a challenge if a naive developer doesn't test with Vietnamese.

These transport options—more notably for cars, but everything else too—are still heavily subsidized in the sense that we’re allowing them to ignore the cost of cleaning up after them, or the cost of climate change (if they aren’t cleaned up after). If we stop that theft from everybody’s grandkids, the economics might get some people to switch over to public transit at least.

But it is really easy to steal from these people, they are tiny babies or not even born yet, they can’t vote. Like stealing candy from a baby, except the candy is their planet’s ecosystem. Sucks to be them, I guess.
