I love how the author of this article makes no intent to give even a start on why he thinks the author of the paper is naive or even describe what the paper is about and give an abstract.

5 years ago we felt like we had to write programs that always get the right answer. We never realized that all it had to do was apologize and people wouldn’t mind.

Eliezer Yudkowsky is up in arms about it because it can bullshit better than he can and never has to take a break. It can replace the authors of The New York Times opinion page if not the actual reporters. Can it replace the CEO?
AMT rules requiring you to report exercised options as income are damn-near criminal, IMO. If you can early-exercise at grant time, file your 83b election, and avoid taxes, great. But if you can't afford it, and want to see anything from that equity, you are stuck staying at that company at least as long as the first liquidity event.

I think the takeaway here is that you should probably not work at a startup if you don't have the cash to early-exercise your option grants (or work there, but value the equity portion of your comp at $0 and be ok with that). Obviously you didn't know or consider that at the time, which is a pretty common level of understanding, I think, one that I shared when I was first dipping my toes into the startup pool myself.

On the plus side, I think financial education and knowledge around startups has gotten leaps and bounds more prevalent over the past dozen years or so. Fewer people will experience the same situation you do, because they'll know not to get into it in the first place. And once enough people understand the implications of these unfair practices, they will have to change if startup founders and investors want to continue to attract talent.
I notice that some of those questions are pretty vague.

I can see why that's okay for the purposes of this study, but I hope it's not indicative of the field's typical rigor.
It is a conundrum. What makes a country, it's parts, but it's parts all the way down to the individual. At what point does it 'break apart'. Or re-form.

Didn't Monico try to secede from France?
Wasn't there a couple provinces in Spain that were trying to leave.
And Ontario has had some movement to leave Canada for awhile.

It seems like every group, no matter the size, will eventually have some sub group that wants to leave. It almost seems like human nature, as soon as you feel like the 'group' is infringing on you as 'individual' and enough people that feel that same way will 're-group' and form a new entity.

The US holds itself on a pedestal. But I really think it is more geography that lead to the little cohesiveness it has. Lots of ocean boarders, weak countries on the others.

Throw the US into the middle of Europe, with same pressures from all around, and internal conflict, and then does it become the Austria-Hungary Empire? What about the US is making it special, except luck.

I don't have any answer.

But I do think that the US is 'stronger together' no matter what the internal disagreements. Just as a Nation, with the need to organize, defend. Given the geography, The US States are stronger together. Any break apart would reduce the remaining factions to less than they are now.
Well, are you going to sue? Are you going to sue Google and Bing and whoever else? Have you even bothered to contact the people at Airtrain to ask them to remove your content? Have you contacted HN to have them delete your account and comments?

Or are you complaining here (ironically) to make a point, but you don't actually care that much?
I think today 512 tokens is a minimum.

It's not just the query (if you're running a chatbot, which many of us are not). It's the entire context window. It's not uncommon to have a system prompt that is > 512 tokens alone.

I would like to see benchmarks for 512, 1024, 4096 and 8192 token inputs.
I don't think we will agree on a definition of AGI, nor should we. To me this is settled by freedom of religion being a universal human right.

This is why the AGI in X years is such an interesting perspective.

"Snapdragon X Elite" is based on the IP Qualcomm gained from the Acquisition of Nuvia, who developed this IP based on a very narrow license they got from ARM to develop for the server market.

Qualcomm is trying to transfer everything Nuvia has developed under that specific narrow ARM-license to the broad license of Qualcomm and use it for "powering flagship smartphones, next-generation laptops, and digital cockpits, as well as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, extended reality and infrastructure networking solutions"

ARM has filed a lawsuit that this was never in scope of the license of Nuvia, the court-ruling is still pending on that one...

The related court-filing is worth a read: https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/22273195/arm-v-qualco...
I sometimes do the same thing. Same with emails. I’m just not sure there’s enough training data to pick up my tone or to reply making a similar assessment to that which I would make.

Would be a wonderfully fun app to try though.

Would it be a good thing? Do you think there are relies you should have posted that you did not?
1. Only to the extend that this also benefits the the genes of a coerced female.

2. Maybe it is, but not sure if that needs to be a problem.

3. No, at least admittance rate of blacks vs asians would make one believe the opposite is true

4. Yes for the vast majority.

5. Probably, but most conservative philosophy is boring and backwards anyway.

6. Are we counting a history of oppression as part of racial biases here?

7. Euh yeah, how is this even controversial?

8. I don't/can't know, but it would surprise me if it was higher then 10%.

9. I would not classify epigenetic as a social influence, so no. (maybe use the word environmental here)

10. No, but unit cohesion can help performance a lot.

I hope this helps

This is what happens when you shut down nuclear (which is carbon-neutral by the way), and start importing more. Total energy usage in Germany is down which is terrible news for your economy. The narrative that German energy policy under the current government has been anything but a failure is ridiculous, but some people just love to believe any garbage that comes out of Habeck's mouth.
Given your answer it does not seem like you opened the linked article. Storage in California is supplying the equivalent to 4-6 nuclear reactors during the evening peaks. They are supplying nuclear scale level energy. We are having this discussion because a nuclear energy startup sees their window of opportunity vanish.

Baseload on the demand side still exists. Baseload powerplants not so much.

Look at the rate California is installing storage. Given the current rate, in 20 years time when what we install today reaches EOL, California will have 10 hours of storage during the summer peak.

When simulating the Australian grid with 5 hours of storage at mean power levels that leads to 99% reliability. [1]

A nuclear plant to solve the last 1% is a non-starter.

Of course we also do not only rely on storage, there is also:

- Large grid to decouple weather patterns

- Demand response

People already get on hourly contracts and schedule car charging for when it is cheap. The next step is automating it and making it more streamlined.

Some companies already support chargers which integrate with the pricing, they can even give you money back through demand response.

Possibly, but an F22 can launch an air to air missile from 65,000ft flying at Mach 2.2, which makes the missile a lot more lethal. A drone with comparable performance might not be that much cheaper.
In reality these are priorities to an increasingly vocal tiny minority in both categories, it is as they say "terminally online"

In reality people care more about the prosperity of their local area, access to hospitals, etc

At the end of the day its about price and launch rate. An individual sat isn't 5t.

I think this is more marketing speak to pretend they had technical reasons not to pick Falcon 9.

> Corporations were people in English before many folks of darker skin colour.

Etymonline[0] cites phrases like "person corporate" as linguistic precedent this use of the term, but the meaning "individual, human being" goes back to 1200. Legal rights notwithstanding, I don't think you're at all correct if you are suggesting that there was ever a stage of daily English usage where the word would be used to refer equally to free citizens and corporations, but not to slaves. And I'd certainly argue that today, the idea that a corporation can be referred to as a 'person' is very much a specialists' usage that does not at all align with its everyday use.

>I would like the option of a party that wants to focus on things like preventing fraud and ensuring freedom

Where's the profit in that?
Don't forget to take both of those stats with a grain of salt though. The US has a lot of gig workers which are not always counted correctly or the same and Germany has a large low-wage sector, where people are employed but earn less per month that they would get in unemployment benefits, and so the state pays the difference.
That's a pretty big claim, that Microsoft and Meta have their own proprietary cuda-replacement stack. Do you have any evidence for that claim?
Here is a summary of Aschenbrenner's paper:

No company I've worked at has showed me their cap table, so I don't think that's a red flag (though I also didn't ask, so maybe they would have). But it's definitely a red flag if they don't answer questions about the cap table that are material to your decision to accept or reject the offer, such as asking them to tell you the number of shares outstanding.
> Very few modern process so far has lead to more efficient / scarcer use of earths resources

I think that's not true. The amount of material needed to make a computer, and the power to drive it, has gone down incredibly since valve-based, room-sized computers, alongside the simultaneous massive increase in power.
That's not what I'm worried about at least. I don't care if they go to a strip club, I care that their salaries are like $20m...for WHAT? WHAT? And we're just sitting here, voting stupidly, focussing on pointless race, gender, sexuality, immigration wars when they're taking everything from us.

Sure CEOs have a role to play, but the job they do isn't worth anywhere near as much as they get paid and they have ZERO responsibility to run a company correctly.

This is one of the reasons. Lots of fake job posts out there, 43% according to that article.
Agreed.

Other external actors (in particular the Soviets) and internal actors played mayor roles as well.

Castigating only the US paints an inaccurate picture of the realities, leading the public and future policy makers to learn partial lessons which when applied will perform less than optimally for preventing the next incident of large scale sufferings
From the article, it sounds like Apple aims to create an "AI App Store", where the users can choose the AI Supplier thmeselves instead of only beeing locked in to "Apple Intelligence". I think its a smart move to build an AI platform instead of beeing an AI supplier by themselves.
The point is to highlight topics that people would be inclined not to research, or not to publish if their conclusions did not support their perception of the majority view.

It would have been more interesting if in addition to capturing the professor’s position they captured the professor’s perception of the majority position, to see if the professor believed they were part of a silent majority or in the minority, but if they did I skimmed past that part.

And they are sabotaging the power production in Sweden too:

"Germany begs for electricity from Sweden – while simultaneously blocking nuclear power"

https://www.tn.se/naringsliv/37243/tyskland-tigger-el-fran-s...
It is surprising to me, though, seeing as Germany was the country responsible for undercutting the ban [1] on sales of new combustion engine cars in the EU after 2035. It is wild to me that they would block such an important deal knowing that they are already ahead of everyone else.

Moreover, Nuvia's ARM-licenses and everything produced from it became invalid with Qualcomm's acquisition, so the tech produced from it is simply not licensed anymore.

In detail, the dispute goes like this:

1. ARM gave a broad range of licenses to Nuvia to develop an ARM-based architecture for use in servers, with a license-fee to match this objective (probably a favorable one for ARM, because it's a field ARM aims to expand):

"Nuvia’s licensing fees and royalty rates reflected the anticipated scope and nature of Nuvia’s use of the Arm architecture. The licenses safeguarded Arm’s rights and expectations by prohibiting assignment without Arm’s consent, regardless of whether a contemplated assignee had its own Arm licenses."

2. Qualcomm acquires Nuvia with the intention to use the developed IP for (quote):

"powering flagship smartphones, next-generation laptops, and digital cockpits, as well as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, extended reality and infrastructure networking solutions"

Sounds quite reasonable if the claim is validated: ARM gave favorable conditions to a startup which aimed to compete in a field where ARM is weak (servers). Now the biggest customer of the strongest revenue-market of ARM (mobile devices) has acquired that startup to repurpose their development and license to use in mobile devices, PCs, automotive, VR,...

Most of those companies you mentioned aren't anywhere near as wealthy or as high market caps as US big-tech.

Most of them are just payment middlemen not some innovative product nobody else can do, and Spotify survives on monopolizing and squeezing artists, not some innovative product. Kind of like Netflix except Netflix has some cutting edge streaming tech as a product not just IP licenses.

ASML is the only product innovator there except their innovative EUV lightsources are licensed from Sandia labs in the US and made by Cymer in the US which ASML bought and licensed to not seel to China. So an US invention at the end of the day.

From the evidence I’ve seen this is the explicit goal of anti-liberal forces in the world, particularly PRC, Russia, and Iran.

I am a developer with nearly 20 years of experience trying to find a new job to try new things and naturally to get a higher salary, but even though I haven't been seriously involved in selection processes before, I used to feel that recruiters would respond right away, like you had to fend them off, and now they don't.

Show HN: Pro Office Calculator – How deep does the rabbit hole go?
I developed this game back in 2017/18 while bored out of my mind working as a junior web developer. It was partly to entertain my friends and colleagues, but I decided at some point to put it on Steam for free. You can find it if you search "Pro office calculator". It also has an official website at proofficecalculator.com.

The game is written in C++ and remains my largest project to date at around 25000 LOC.

It starts off as a normal calculator, but gradually transforms into much more. The storyline touches on themes of alternate universes, time travel, the singularity, etc. In terms of gameplay, I would take common elements of software design, such as trouble-shooters, installers, dialog boxes, etc. and distort them in as perverse a way as possible. It at times involved making creative use of the GUI toolkit (Qt) to do unconventional things.

The game includes a Doom-style 3D engine, which I found extremely challenging to develop. I never looked up how to do it as I wanted the satisfaction of deriving my own rendering and collision algorithms. Consequently, it's horrendously slow, which is why the resolution is so low. It has most of the features of the original Doom engine, plus a few more, like portals and the ability to look up and down. I used Inkscape as my level editor, because from Inkscape you can export SVG images, which are just XML, which is easy to parse - I just had to figure out how to represent all the level geometry and game objects in an SVG image.

It got a bit of attention when it first came out, but not much as I never really bothered to promote it. I've decided on a whim to post it here today :)

I'm a fourth-year Data Science student at the University of São Paulo seeking an Internship role (August - December). My course has provided me with a good background on Statistics and CS, with classes such as Deep Learning, Non-Structured Data Mining and Bayesian Statitics. I have had the oppotunity to do a Research Internship in France earilier this year, receiving one of the most prestigious scholarships available in my country, it was about Time Series extrinsic regression for Mobile Health.

My current experience has been as a Machine Learning Intern, creating a MLP, FCN, ResNet and InceptionTime in PyTorch comparing it to a new implementation for a paper yet to be published. Not to mention a few kaggle competitions and a bunch of projects, I have also had some data engineering experience working with ECG data.
Did VCs end up holding the bag at the end of the mobile revolution hype cycle?
Why even list Chinese vendors? Those would never happen in a western market.
Mostly based on the huge payouts for forest fires and bankruptcy of PG&E.

Until they had the highest rates in Europe when their nuclear energy did not deliver. [1] Currently they are completely unable to construct any new nuclear power given the outcome of Flamanville 3 [2] and cost escalations of their upcoming reactors [3], before they have even started building. The future for the French nuclear industry is looking incredibly bleak.

Relying on data from the 50-80s to "show" that nuclear is viable today, and also only looking at the reactor and not the entire plant, is essentially lying with statistics.

Have a look at all projects in the west in the past 20 years. They've either been cancelled or taken 20+ years from announcement to commercial operation.

Given the extreme costs of and lengthy construction timelines of modern nuclear power investing in it today prolongs climate change.

For the interested, Tetlock wrote a book called 'Superforecasting', and also set up a company using his research to utilize the prowess of those forecasters (https://goodjudgment.com/about/). I don't know how good the company is at what it does, but the book was very good.
