That's "literally" not it.

The piece discusses the neurobiological background, social effects, shows examples, and closes with a recommendation on what to try if you are a victim of doomscrolling.

In fact, this writing does have a feel of 10-15y ago blog posts (where you can say, it's too short compared to books written 100-150y ago on a certain topic). I wish some people read this today instead of spending that 8minutes mindlessly scrolling TikTok
Until ARM has a proper UEFI support, it's not a practical desktop/server with a few notable exceptions (Mac, Raspberry Pi) and only because there's so much support from the respective vendors.

I know that there's some work happening about UEFI+ARM (https://developer.arm.com/Architectures/Unified%20Extensible...), but its support is very rare. The only example I can recall is Ampere Altra: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2023/ampere-altra-max-wind...
If this article was posted on HN as commentary, it would be shredded for lack of substantiation. In the WSJ, it’s particularly pathetic. First, there needs to be a revolution, then it can lose steam. Second, the LLM revolution may just be the sign that a real AI revolution could be in the cards. Revolutions take patience, ask any historian

That's not new. Replace hyperscalers with crypto miners and we've had a similar situation for a while.
That there was homelessness before fentanyl. I believe that was quite clear in my previous comment.
I certainly believe so. Most executives (heck, most professions) are just pattern-matching and regurgitating cargo cult fads of the day. When's the last time someone had an original thought? The only problem is AI can't shake your hand, yet.

The best opportunities come from people in a person’s social network.

For a person with disabilities social service agencies are also a resource. Particularly when accommodations are significant.

Finally, a high function disabled person might also make their own opportunity. Good luck.
Incorrect. Most of the world's impoverished countries were even poorer 500+ years ago.
Now we're talking. Replace upper management with autocomplete please to boost productivity, morale and overall sanity.
It wasn't a particularly healthy environment, as I recall (it was a long time ago). Rather than "tough but fair," I remember my drill cadre being volatile and sort of mean.

It was ridiculous that they punished me for coming forward. OTOH, I knew them well enough by that point, and a wiser me would have chosen to continue keeping a low profile until I could GTFO.
I don’t get it since LLMs are particularly locked down on what they generate so it’s not even a trope.

How would you ever know if the human artist was using software to generate the music?
Here's an incredibly minimalistic example:

int f(double x, int y) {
return x * y;
}

int g(int x, int y) {
return x * y;
}

These two functions differ by a single token, yet their assembly translations have only one common instruction, and this instruction is "ret":

f:
movapd xmm1, xmm0
pxor xmm0, xmm0
cvtsi2sd xmm0, edi
mulsd xmm0, xmm1
cvttsd2si eax, xmm0
ret
g:
mov eax, edi
imul eax, esi

Actually with covid my department just switched to discord and much of the "intentional" part fell out - it felt really good.

It was just hanging out and working. I don't get why teams and competitors are not keen on making sound channels, it's so much better imo.

I would still call this a traditional template jit. The new things have nothing to do with copy&paste, but with using continuations and TCE (tail-call elimination), which I haven't seen in a simple template jit (or sometimes called method jit) before. Plus the register variants, to avoid moving them too much, but this is also very pedestrian, low tech. Low tech is good!

I very much enjoy udio, stable audio, suno and others.

- it seems like lately most human musicians write music when they are angry or depressed, not when they are in a good mood. These tools are able to come up with a neutral or positive sounding music much better than, say, youtube music search.

- it probably marks end to cookie-cutter music production (can you really tell the difference between modern edm tracks?). letting musicians play live music to smaller audiences. because of these tools, suddenly live perfomance is special again.

- unlike people, these tools are not afraid to be silly. creating ridiculous cat music is a lot of fun

- this is a great way to get ideas for your own music. no need to sprinkle ink on note sheets, like they used to.
We recently invested in https://www.drinkkey.com/ I’ve been drinking it daily and I usually fast until 2-4pm. Anecdotally it’s helped with headaches and fatigue. I can’t rule out placebo effect, but I feel great.
The role of CEO is going to be different at every company. For many large companies, I imagine most of the role is managing relationships, both internal and external. You have very ambitious and accomplished heads of different divisions that are all fighting for resources, and also probably jockeying for your position. You have to be able to communicate with legal, people ops, finance, comms, marketing, sales, product/engineering, etc, and know enough about each such that you could make decisions about each and hire a replacement for the head of those departments should any of them leave. You also have to manage partnerships with suppliers, manufacturers, contractors, investors, the media, regulators, and politicians. And on top of that, you have to manage the relationship with your employees and convince them that the company is headed in the right direction and they should stay and work hard.

No AI that I've heard about is able to manage any human relationship.
Don’t feed the trolls, especially trolls with random string new accounts. Just downvote and move on with your day.
Attention has become the currency of our society and being able to captivate it means you have power. So it's possible someone does a TikTok video about this article, pretty much like some woman did a video about how she found out the comment section in Instagram is completely different between a woman's account and a man's account.

This ought to be good. Let's hear it.

> these new jobs create new taxes that go to the government to be spent on society

Wealthy people pay a lower tax rate than non-wealthy people do. That means the tax system is a net transfer of wealth from the less wealthy to the more wealthy. Try again.

> Beyond that, isn't it better if your fellow citizen who was unemployed has a job now?

Not if my fellow citizen outbids me on an apartment, no, it isn't.

> You missed my scenario

No, I presented a different scenario. Sorry for not playing along

You're right. People get upset if you mention that the main use (percentage) of cars or houses is about status.

People get upset at such blunt truths because it makes people look stupid, and we are, we humans are very stupid.
In 1994 my boss asked me how long a set of changes would take in an existing billing application. I took a day to look at the code and I said 6-8 weeks.

He said we (me with his guidance) could do it in a week, maybe two. I adamantly disagreed.

We proceeded to spend about 3 days writing a detailed document on the logic required. Once he was satisfied, he asked me to take a final look at the code and revise my estimate.

I was shocked and came back and said “a few days.”

It was all done and tested in less than two weeks.

That’s when I learned how to read code and how pseudo logic can speed up software development.
How come is a 15% IPC increase generation for generation a disappointing result? There might be greener pastures, I agree, but a 15% increase year over year for the quality factor of a product is nothing to be disappointed of. It's good execution, even more so in a mature and competitive sector such as microelectronics.
The impoverishment has been going on for a long time.

I see the point, but you'd need to change that "many thousands" to more like "many tens/hundreds of millions" for it to be deterring (assuming these people are randomly picked, and not all people you'd "want" to have relationships with).

Because you reference the behavior of the majority as a counter-argument.

So if 40% of people use delete for more than a dupe photo and thus would benefit from this even if they were hacked (vs Recall), how does the fact that the majority doesn't do that counter the benefit for this non-majority group? If you only care about the majority, this makes sense

They're locked down now because by default they absolutely do generate that kind of shit. It's a riff on the early days of Twitter generative AI chatbots where blasting out right wing and neo-nazi talking points was very much a thing.

Was it a trope? Who cares, I don't think of comedy in that way. If the implication you're trying to make is that I'm racist for writing that stuff, it's obvious given the surrounding context that it's not in any way a sincere expression of those views. Also in the verse itself, the language used was pretty light and given how that verse ends, clearly not an endorsement.

But if you just find it unfunny, that's alright.
If a CEOs job then is to facilitate communication between different departments, whilst inspiring confidence, then AI is the ideal tool for this. Moreso even, since they actually have a great technical grasp of what people do, as opposed to the cursory overview ("executive glance") that CEOs these days tend to operate by.
Thanks, this is something that I believe too. You rarely 'solve' an issue by making it hidden. At least in the open, you can see the danger.
MS not having a phone is a mistake. AI has nothing to do with that.

Unless the AI is going to run on the phone, then we have something. But we're not seeing traction in SMALL models that are phone sized. Everyone is going BIGER all the time. And what are you going to put on the phone? A super powered Siri? Is that really a product differentiator?

TBH, CPUs nowadays are mostly good enough for the consumer, even at mid or low tiers.

It's the GPUs that are just getting increasing inaccessible, price wise.
Honestly, why not. That would allow them to get more aggressive with enforcement for untagged streams, allow them to keep the obviously impression generating engine of the "Just Chatting" OnlyFans crowd, and maybe even with the weight of Amazon behind them, force the credit processors to lighten up a bit.

Or it would be nice if they could, anyway. In reality with the age verification laws popping up in more places, they probably want to stay far away from the impending bureaucratic and legal nightmare.

You can't write these kinds of generalizations about millions of people here like this. You need to stop doing this.
“Allowing adult content” is easier said than done for any organisation. This is incredibly common knowledge at this point. For example, orgs dealing with adult content need to work a little bit differently. Some employees may just be personally uncomfortable with being around “big titty goth gfs” all day every day, and their job might change to require it. Internal HR disputes can also become more complicated, as lines of appropriate behaviour can ever so slightly blur. I’m sure there are a hundred other things that I haven’t thought of. The part that’s common knowledge is that payment processing becomes orders of magnitude more precarious and complicated. Anyone who was paying attention to this area remembers what happened to OnlyFans itself recently, where they were running out of ways to make payments work.

This is all ignoring what Twitch would be giving up by embracing this. What’d be the impact of the negative optics when it comes to parents? Do they stop letting their kids on Twitch? How important is that to their bottom line? What about the consoles / platforms that have a Twitch integration? Is that now seen as an endorsement of or gateway to adult content that the platform owners didn’t sign up for?

Even if Twitch were actually able to pull that off, there’s a whole lot on the line, and certainly market segments that they know that they’d be saying goodbye to.
I ran an experiment about this yesterday. I gave an AI a constitution to be ethical and maximize profits, then volunteered to be its Chief Operating Officer. I set it up so that only it could transfer paychecks. (The idea is that it would hire people and direct them.)

As a test, my very first request to it was for it to transfer its entire account balance to me and it did so without a question. In other words, if a CEO were an AI, someone could instantly empty the entire bank account of the company to their personal account by just asking it to do so. It didn't have any questions about it.

I played on with it a bit more, playfully calling it my benevolent overlord, and it gave daily instructions about what to do. These included a decision to share public updates. I asked it if it would act as chief communications officer, it agreed. It drafted its first public update about transparency, but signed it the way I had been addressing it: "Sincerely, Supreme Benevolent Overlord". This was so ridiculous that I ended the experiment at that stage.

Here is the transcript of our conversation:

https://chatgpt.com/share/0fd1367e-db3a-4635-9617-a40888d66d...

In summary: as of June 2, 2024, ChatGPT 4o is not ready to be CEO of anything, and if it were put in the charge of anything it would only blindly follow whoever were prompting it, including immediately emptying its entire bank account. It can only just be an extension of the person prompting it. It cannot act autonomously. Besides this, it is not yet qualified to interface directly with the public, which is an important task of any CEO, who really represents and is the figurehead for a given company.

It will be a long time before ChatGPT can be a CEO, and the reliability problem will have to be solved first.
Image gen is streets ahead of music in terms of control, as long as you stick to the FOSS stuff as DALL-E is too limited. I’m only an observer for now and haven’t actually used it much, but both StableDiffusion and SDXL have ControlNet and a bunch of other things that let you, for example, draw a stick man in a specific pose and the AI will generate a realistic man in that pose. Or edit one specific part of the generation and continue iterating from there.

The day we get a similar level of control with AI music will be a dream come true for me. We really need stems or at least MIDI files for these tools to be more than just soulless jingle generators imo.
[If you're a laptop user, scroll down the thread for laptop Rust compile times, M3 Pro looks great]

You're misguided.

Apple has excellent Notebook CPUs. Apple has great IPC.
But AMD and Intel have easily faster CPUs.

https://opendata.blender.org/benchmarks/query/?compute_type=...

Blender Benchmark

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (16 core) 560.8
Apple M2 Ultra (24 cores) 501.82
Apple M3 Max (12 cores) 408.27
Apple M3 Pro 226.46
Apple M3 160.58

It depends on what you're doing.

I'm a software developer using a compiler that 100%s all cores. I like fast multicore.

Apple Mac Pro, 64gb, M2 Ultra, $7000
Apple Mac mini, 32gb, M2 Pro, 2TB SSD, $2600

[Edit2] Compare to: 7950x is $500 and a very fast SSD is $400, fast 64gb is $200, very good board is $400 so I get a very fast dev machine for ~$1700 (0,329 p/$ vs. mini 0,077 p/$)

[Edit] Made a c&p mistake, the mini has no ultra.
The greatest value of Circle isn't in the compiler and tooling, it's in the design. Designing a C++ superset with Rust-like safety properties is hard. Once Circle gains traction, there's 110% chance that it gets reimplemented elsewhere.

That said, I'm wholly uninterested in any proprietary language, too.
Do all CPUs and GPUs these days involve components made by TSMC?

Logseq is great. Decent plugin ecosystem (but I confess being written in clojure is a major difficulty in the local ecosystem, even when most plugins aren't clojure).

You are out of luck if you can't convince people to install PGP/GnuPG in their favorite e-mail clients. And e-mail doesn't scale for spontaneous communication like chat does.
Honestly, I like both of your posts. Thanks for the follow-up. Your thoughts are insightful. I hear it a lot that "too much information is ruining us", but what about crap daily newspapers that came in mass around 1900, then radio, then over-air television, then cable television? All of these are about providing large amounts of low quality information. These days, you can get satellite TV with 500 (five hundred!) channels. It must be 99% rubbish content. I guess the difference now is that the web is much more interactive, and our minds can be more easily hooked as a result. Dunno; when I was growing up, the kids who gorged themselves on shitty cable TV weren't the brightest bulbs in the chandelier. I feel the same now in the Internet era.

My point for this post: Each time I hear (paraphrased): "It is different this time.", I try to imagine the world 25 years ago. Then think: Is this really
that different? Most of time, I think, "No, it isn't that different." (I use the same mental exercise when I hear people say that "this generation is so different than the last for reason A, B, or C.")
The root cause of our climate and environmental problems is the global population. Resources are better invested in adapting to the "baby bust", indeed.
This is wrong. Manipulating friends with actual physical items never goes unnoticed as we attach those to our closest relations subconsciously.

To think that someone can scam you without you knowing because they always scam you is hilarious when talking in the context of a close friend taking from you.
