Ouf. Not really surprising IMO. I watched Mark Manson's video on Korean society and it's pretty rough.

It seems Korea did the worst of both worlds by combining Confucianism and strong Asian work ethic with American cutthroat Winner Takes All capitalism.

Resulting in a society who spends their youth grinding themselves into a pulp to "make it to the top", but many don't and just burn out, so it's not surprising so many men are unhappy with the status quo and choosing right wing as an overflow valve.

I don't think we celebrate incompetence. For me it's more about a reduction in expectations and standards driven by external factors.

If you want to place blame at someone's feet, I would point toward the managerial class that have encouraged the downskilling of talent in favor of having more control - if you only know how to do front end or back end, you need a team to build anything. Full stack developers don't necessarily have this problem, and are harder to slap around as they could leave and build
on their own.

I've caught myself towing the party line regarding how only the most dedicated unicorn 10xers can achieve competence with both parts. I don't actually think this is true though. With a good mentor and proper environment you can make anyone full stack even if they have a normal home life.
I also know this feeling! I think if more people knew did, they would be more supportive of urban green spaces. It's always remarkable to ride my bike through a paved residential area and then cut through this green alleyway-- the temperature and air is so fresh and feels 5 degrees cooler than the street.

I followed whatever the guidance was for a specific model. Some of the LLM finetuning providers did indeed set the temperature to 0 and I followed that, but others suggested 1. I could probably iterate a bit to see what is best for each model, and I might well do that for the one that I choose as the one I’ll be doubling down on in subsequent iterations / finetunes. Thanks for the suggestion!

Some container formats, such as ISO Base Media File Format aka "mpeg4", have features such as edit lists. With edit lists you can have original video in the bitstream, organized in GoPs as you say, but then the final video rendered in the player gets to choose which frames to play from that material.

This allows cutting at completely arbitrary places (I'm 99% sure that this can also be at a higher time resolution than the original data), with the cost that the original (unplayed) data remains in the file.

However, some players may have incomplete support for them. For example I believe FFmpeg only supports edit lists used at the beginning of the video, which is commonly used to align video and audio properly.
Funnily enough, I program in real life and have also been anxious lately.

"You cannot see the wood for trees"

I'd argue there is so much good that the tradeoff of trees killing a few humans is worth it.

The biological diversity that returns - birds, carbon soil. The air quality. Less chance that the heat will kill our senior citizens. Trees prevent floods.

From NotJustBikes channel, trees and bushes can be used to obscure road visibility, which naturally forces drivers to slow down at a curve, which makes streets safer for pedestrians (43k deaths a year in USA from cars)
It should trigger fail2ban, that's for sure.

Alerting is useless, with the volume of automated exploits attempted.
The thing I never found satisfying was this notion that the air over the top moves faster because it has further to go - in what way does the length of a path that lies in the air's future have any effect on its speed now? As if the air over the top somehow has to match up with the air it was next to before the wing split it away below? What mysterious force would account for that?

The best I could arrive at was that the forward motion of the wing causes the back side of the curved wing top simply to pull away from the air in that region, reducing the pressure there, and incidentally (because Bernoulli) that air then moves faster as a result.

OpenpPipe - https://openpipe.ai/ - is probably the service that most closely resembles what you’re asking for, but I found the evals weren’t really what I wanted — i.e. following my custom evaluation criteria — so you probably will end up having to do that yourself anyway. But for the finetuning, they’re all somewhat the same. Predibase and OpenPipe are two good options for that. Predibase has more base models for you to finetune, but it’s a bit more unwieldy to work with. I wrote about that in a previous post here -- https://mlops.systems/posts/2024-06-17-one-click-finetuning.....
I have little sympathy for that kind of argument, imagine a carpenter complaining that they have to buy wood and nails.

From the FAQ:

> Why no Firefox support
Firefox is my daily web browser. As a web developper, I always make sure my work is comptatible with all major browsers. But you can guess a web based video editor is a complex task to achieve, and Pikimov uses several key features that only exist in Chrome, Edge, and maybe Opera, and maybe, maybe, Brave. That's why Pikimov cannot currently work on Firefox (as of today: v127), there's nothing I can do to fix this, it is just not possible. For the curious ones, here are some of the web API Pikimov requires, but are missing from Firefox: - audio data - window showsavefilepicker - videoencoder Note: There is no Safari support due to similar obstacles.

It'd be nice to see Dassault try to bring back the Mercure. It was a pretty solid plane designed to compete with the 737 but it just never managed to break out of France due to the economy in the 80s and Boeing & Airbus' comparative success.

Dassault is still a major producer of business jets and military fighter jets so it's certainly not like they don't have the skills or capability.

I didn't think columns were well supported yet. Awesome.
This is an old comment, but I thought it was worth addressing since it brings up the point of rhetoric.

The current crop of judges is absurdly partisan. This is no ordinary position, these judges are not regular Joes. Their opinions, their intellect, their fairness and open mindedness to address a case on its merits, is what their entire life time appointment is about. Being a Judge.

Read Alito's dissenting opinion on Murthy. He depicts (not interpret) the whole case as government censorship.

Mind you, this is the case where the government would have had to invent time travel to be culpable.

The big issue with the 6502 is being unable to pass lots of parameters on the hardware stack, but that's all there is to it - one approach was to create a parameter stack independent - you'd just push the size of the called memory space to the hardware stack, using 3 bytes per call for up to 256 worth of parameters and local variables.

I think you are correct. My understanding is that the brain uses sense data just to confirm predictions it has already made. The model in which the brain is just reacting to incoming sense data is outdated from what I understand.
I remember this recent story about a train maintenance engineer in the US.

He said that regularly his superiors would come to him and tell him that some part X didn't need a maintenance now.

He would then ask them to put their initials on the maintenance sheet. Suddenly maintenance was required!

I am rebuilding the website for a personal project of mine; the site is for a mod in a game that offers twitch integration, and in the mod, there is a "twitch chest" that only chat can open.

I added an easter egg on the website, that when you click on the chest in the footer, it follows the mouse in a similar way it would within the game -- it keeps a safe distance from the mouse to prevent interfering with it, and will repel away to that distance when moving the mouse towards it.

Qt for Application Development Professional (ADP) is 3460 €/Year.

>>we developed statistical models to predict bird behaviour. These models were based on long-term observations of bird interactions led by Philip Gibbons at the Australian National University. By simulating how birds might use artificial branches, we could refine our designs to better meet their needs.

It sounded like a great use of an ML classifier interpreting raw data (possibly video footage?) of bird observations... Until the line where they reveal their data source for the model was already classified data from a previous study. And the previous study also had similar conclusions about horizontal branches on tall old trees being the most preferred.

This would be understandable when the person sharing the link doesn't run the web server and can't simply look in access logs to find click rates, but then what they end up doing is giving everyone a unique link using marketing software and it can be tracked exactly who opened which link at what time on an individual level, as if that's necessary

Data2vec, an ML algorithm that works across text,images and speech
Have you tried clicking on the link and finding out?
even if you look at something like DLSS where “all” it’s doing is giving you a tractable approximation of a difficult optimization problem (weighting temporal samples inside a TAA algorithm), that’s such a broadly-applicable approach that it alone would probably change society. The value of increasing shipping or rail efficiency by 5-10% alone is worth billions, and there’s probably thousands of smaller optimization tasks it can be adapted to.

The LLM stuff is an even bigger pot of gold potentially, a workable semantic embedding for semantic queries or other things is another thing that a million improvements can be shaken out of.

it’s actually bizarre to me how much people stand on the “no commercial value!!!” thing, and I have to view some of it as just being the next round of histrionics from the same people who are mad their deviantart got scraped etc.

Tests that don't test anything come in at least two categories for me:

- test that were useless, are still useless and will always be useless

- tests that are currently useless but were used in the "wtf should i write" phase of coding (templating/TDD/ whatever you want to call it).

I'm partial towards the seconds, and i like when they're not removed, because often you understand how the API/algorithm was coded thanks to them (and its often unit tests). But ideally, both should be out of a codebase.

Interesting. I can maybe try finetuning one or two of the so-called 'uncensored' open models and see if that makes a difference. A bit harder to switch out the dataset completely, as that's really what I'm interested in :) I think the general point that finetuning a model for some custom task works is fairly uncontroversial, but if OpenAI's poor performance was on account of these kinds of guardrails it'd be yet another reason someone might want to finetune their own models I guess.
