My use of “unburdened” includes financial in all variations, even sealing the ability of the subsequent child to find the parents.

It’s pretty clear that it will be the state who assumes receivership of the fetus and subsequent human with full constitutional rights.

It’s also a pretty easy legislative problem to say the state is transferring unwanted fetuses, despite the technology for its viability not currently existing. The outcome shifts the burden of guilt - or lack thereof - away from the parent(s), over to an immune state regardless of that state’s laws on abortion. And it shifts priorities and funding measures on creating the technology to ensure a fetus’ viability, whether that turns out to be a fool's errand or not.

This will easily bridge consensus between “camps” as the discomfort over citizens killing fetus turns into a market choice instead of a legislative debate. What will the market primarily choose to end a pregnancy
I'm building an open source developer platform to create multimodal AI agents
I've been working on this project for a while, it's an open source platform to help developers create and integrate AI agents into their web applications without hustling and wasting time on technical stuff.

AI agents are multimodal: can accept text, images, and audio as input, and return text, audio, or JSON as a response with real-time streaming.

You can also extends agents knowledge, connect them with APIs and custom functions, and easily manage their long-term memory and context.

The platform will give you full data validation, type safety, easy server-client integration for modern web applications, and works with the edge out of the box.

you can start by checking the website at scoopika.com.

contributions are open on Github:

just don't judge the code :)
Does anyone why it smell so bad?
You cannot compare aborting a fetus which we do not yet classify as a full fledged human being with helping an adult commit suicide. If we did consider it a human being we would ban abortion as well. And technically we do not allow abortion in the last month except in exceptional cases.

Note as well that assisted suicide opens a bigger can of worms than abortion. For example unborn babies do not have accumulated wealth that you can inherit. The mother has no monetary incentive to abort the child. Parents however do often have accumulated wealth and unscrupulous kids have the incentive of finishing them off sooner.
or you can do combinations.
I framed that as NIST responses to NSA concerns, but on re-reading, it seems that the table I'm quoting is entirely produced by the NSA. This doesn't really affect the substance of what I wrote with regard to technical details, but I may have misattributed statements to NIST that came from NSA.
I wonder what the chances are that some government has compromised one of the many "trusted" CA certs used by all browsers on earth?
Too bad, I guess that leaves out the "use disproportionately large amounts of the agent to hotbox the room" method. But that doesn't invalidate the point of the parent comment.

Yup. Intend to assume that any game with remote interaction is completely insecure. It is best to run Steam and all games in some sort of sandbox.

Flatpak is probably a helpful start. While containers aren't a strong security boundary at least simple exploits won't work.

Interesting. You could add counting and other jobs as well, eg ”how many times does value 8364 appear, and in which dictionaries?”

A lot of the needle trained models clearly can’t reason with stuff everywhere in a long context even if they can retrieve. I would like to see some extensions that require some reasoning.

I guess you could use words as dict vals and ask it what sentence a set of keys spells, and to answer the sentence with a set of keys. Lots of interesting possibilities.

For anyone who want get into James Joyce, but finds reading him intimidating, I highly recommend the RTE (Irish national radio) recording of Ulysses: https://www.rte.ie/radio/podcasts/series/32198-ulysses/

Not only do they have a fantastic full cast reading of the book, but for each chapter they have a companion episode where they talk to a Joyce scholar about the chapter. I went through it by alternating listening to a chapter then listing to the episode about the chapter, and I finally really got Joyce and understood why he is considered great.

Marketing yourself is more important now than ever. The advent of AI has created a noise problem at the hiring level on both sides: applicants are leveraging tools to generate necessary documents (targeted resumes, cover letters, social profiles), recruiters are using scanning tools to weed out anything that doesn't contain the magical keywords or phrases.
Deferring to agencies was not absolute. Courts could overrule if agencies were not being reasonable in their interpretation.
Still very much present, it powers "SecDB" (which is pretty much the nervous system of the entire markets business). While there's certainly been openness to Python/etc and tech to integrate Slang into the 21st century, it's the kind of thing that's hard to imagine ever being phased out.

I mean expecting to much by thinking tech is any different then the rest. Leaving the career won't really lead to anything different, if your goal is to work. Which we all need to do. If you're lucky enough to not have the play the game and can leave software and work in general, that's good, but not typical.

I think you missed my point. Tech is bigger then Google Facebook w/e. Is writing drivers for obscure hardware ruining the world? Or raspberry pi? Using computer vision to solve your problems at home. That's still tech imo and healthy to participate in.
'Our use of the term “open source” thus far has been not out of carelessness, but out of disdain for OSI approved licenses which nevertheless allow developers to be exploited by large corporate interests. The OSI, an organization with confidential charter members and large corporate sponsors, does not have any legal right to say what is and is not “open source”. It is arrogant of them to lay claim to the definition.'

Source: https://www.futo.org/about/futo-statement-on-opensource/

It is arrogant of FUTO to try to redefine 'open source' to their liking.

The minds behind OSI created the Open Source Definition more than 25 years ago. When some one says that software is 'open source' that is understood to mean that the software is licenced under a license that bestows specific rights to the users of the software.

FUTO is welcome to create licenses that advance their goals and name their licenses as they wish, but their licenses will not be 'open source' unless the terms of the Open Source Definition are met.

Words have meanings. If I sell you an automobile and then give you a bicycle, you would probably be upset that I did not deliver what was expected. I cannot change the definition of 'automobile' because I disagree with some parts of it. The word has a specific meaning that is well understood by people. The same argument applies to 'open source'.
This code commits so many sins. The contributing standards are so strange. And what is up with the licensing?

Looking at this code hurts my eyes.

I'd argue a much more core issue is simply the primitive voting system guarantees a two-party system. The US desperately needs ranked choice voting which would inject diversity into the system, diversity that's necessary for survival.

Any political structure is going to fail when you have a duopoly. One side decides to not play "fair" and bam, everything falls apart. You need to avoid any individual party having full control in the first place. Then the checks and balances can actually function.
> Yeah, I'm surrounded with medical professionals

In fact you are. You're speaking to one.

Your original statement completely ignores the massive amount of barriers put up during your training. From my own experience I can tell you that students are usually quite self aware that they are learning and on a short leash. The most egregious mistakes I've seen were almost always a result of understaffing and gaps stemming from leadership issues coming from the top down. The small mistakes and cut corners are from tired overworked people.

Nobody accepts "hurting people" as a component of training. It's an absurd statement.
If Google open sourced their BUILD files for public libraries, we wouldn’t be able to use workarounds… Migrating something complex like ffmpeg to Bazel is not something trivial.

More like a representative random sample of ingredients in products available locally and/or tailored to the local conditions of water hardness.

The soap itself is the bulk emulsifying agent, which in particular is the reaction product after treating rendered oils with an aggressive alkaline lye solution.

The strong lye seeks out weak points among the carbon chains of the mostly-saturated oil molecules, then reacts in those spots to end up with sodium salts of fatty acids, which imparts the property of water solubility to the former oil molecules. The resulting purified soap then can be conveniently used to remove plain oil & grease of many kinds by being mixed with the oil & grease to make the entire mixture soluble enough to wash away with water.

Therefore soap is not one particular chemical, but a particular class of chemicals. Traditionally made by treating rendered vegetable or animal fats. Caustic soda lye reacts with rendered oil to form sodium salts, caustic potash lye would yield the corresponding potassium salts.

Plus there are a number of other emulsifiers which can remove oil & grease and are chemically distinct from soaps. One of the major alternative classes is detergents. These are not soap at all even though they clean & foam.

Anyway on the list presented these are the items that stand out as actual soaps. Others I would put into the category of byproducts or additives:

Sodium Laurate

Sodium Stearate

Sodium Oleate

Sodium Palmate

Sodium Tallowate

Sodium Palm Kernalate

Sodium Cocoate

Notice these are all sodium salts of fatty acids derived from natural oils. If the pH is neutral enough no other additives or buffers may be necessary, that would be just plain soap.

But the raw oils as well as the acid forms of salts like this (a few can also be found on the list) can also be quite mild bulk commodities and certain amounts have often remained in, or found their way into, different formulations for different reasons.

A soap product itself may or may not be an irritant to different people at different times, but even if completely innocuous as a chemical, I would think it would be possible to overuse it habitually enough to compromise a protective layer of natural oils to a point which allows irritation to occur from exposure to completely unrelated agonists which otherwise do not act as triggers at all.

Generally, you're not entitled to potential losses as a bankruptcy creditor.

Those creditors were welcome to sue the entity in bankruptcy for their potential losses, but that would involve demonstrating they'd have had the wherewithal to hold to the point of the gains they're claiming.

I do think that FTX creditors should not have profited out of the bankruptcy proceedings, either.
Of all the hockey injuries, this one rates pretty low for adult beer league if you just wear a cage. Wearing a full face cage reduces the risk of losing teeth to almost 0% chance of happening.

Hockey does have risks of course, but playing in a non checking league takes the risk down to manageable levels in my opinion.

Now, I don't have any MI300X, so I can't make any definite claims here. I am hoping someone else can replicate the results shown here or at the least educate me on how this is possible. Good part is the docker container and associated steps are made public - which is pretty cool!

Going by the video, the first thing that gave me pause was that a single MI300X is pulling off groq like performance, i.e. 314 tokens/second for a batch size = 1 (bs=1) with a prompt of 256 tokens and generation of 256 tokens. [1]

The Llama-2 70B is 128.48GB with FP16 (you can see this in the video). The entire model fits well within the 192GB HBM memory of the MI300X - which is awesome! However, for an regressive transformer model, during generation, the entire model weights are processed to generate a single next token. These models are "next token predictors" so to say, and you need the previous token to generate the next token. Therefore, the 128.48GB of model weights need are consumed from the HBM at the compute cores of the MI300X, per generated token. Note, I am not talking about the prefill - which only needs a single forward pass to generate the first output token. Every subsequent output token is auto-regressive.

The video shows that a single prompt (bs=1) with 256 token prompt and 256 tokens generated within 1.63 second. There is no tensor parallelism involved, or batching or anything else. This is a bs=1 case with a single card, and hence you can reason about the math fairly easy.

This shouldn't fundamentally be possible within the specs of the MI300X card. The card has a peak HBM memory bandwidth of 5.3 TB/s. You'll notice that to cycle through the weights (assuming FP16) 256 times, you'd need a minimum of 6 seconds, even at perfect ideal conditions. Napkin math: (256 * 128.48e9) / (5.3e12)

Even if that's true, then wouldn't that mean that any impact is now distributed, and the severity of any individual impact is now mitigated?

If any kinetic energy can be divided and distributed amongst multiple projectiles (rather than a single point), then doesn't that lessen its severity?
The disconnect between benchmarks and practical use is interesting. I guess it's hard to build accurate benchmarks.

I find gpt-4 and gpt-3 a world apart. Perhaps it's just that it crossed a tipping point that made it useful for _me_ and the next 10x investment in training wouldn't achieve the same effect for me (but perhaps for somebody else?)

> When you are 65 then you already have done a lot for the economy of the country

My hunch is that in some cases boomers have been and will continue decreasing their net contribution to whichever economy they live in, which shouldn't be the most important thing in evaluating the value of someone's existence, except that in this case everyone servicing them is also being squeezed by the tax system, and the same people they're servicing. Could be living in a boomer's basement making less than them but paying 1/2 your check, or in a managed rental that's owned by a reit that's invested in by their pension fund.
I didn't say it was a bad thing, just pointing out that Haskell is not a terribly popular language and as such most of the apps that I've seen written in it are only used by Haskell enthusiasts (Darcs comes to mind).

I recommend it fully! I learned to play at 32 and I am having a blast. Still some risk, but my local league is very laid back and we run very safe games. Being kitted out in protective gear really does make a difference in preventing injuries.

If my interpretation of the paper is correct, they are using the high resolution event data in addition to the low resolution RGB data in order to do the reconstruction, so this technique won't enhance random videos on the internet. It's a new algorithm to take advantage of event-based cameras that usually record both high resolution event data and low resolution RGB.

The Wake didn't really click with me until I heard the recording of Joyce reading the episode with the two washerwomen. I realized the references, puns, and in-jokes are basically just bonus material for me.

I wish we had a recording of him reading it cover to cover.
While I agree he's being too simplistic I think you're not getting it, either. You're making the standard error of the medical world of focusing too much on stuffing pigeons into pigeonholes because once you have found the supposedly correct (look at the patients who go to doctor after doctor after doctor until someone finally finds the rare issue that's the correct diagnosis--and realize that there are those who never get answers) pigeonhole you see the pigeonhole rather than the patient.

You're looking into that pigeonhole and observing the result is anywhere from two weeks of horror to three years of not too bad. Just because you can't predict how any given case will turn out doesn't mean you can't look at the patients and see how things are turning out. And recognize that things are not static--your first patient doesn't exist. Things don't just sit there at three for three years and then kill you.
Show HN: How to build an OSS AI Business Analyst agent in less than 70 lines?
Hi HN Community,

I am Karan, the founder of https://composio.dev/. We craft high-quality tools for AI Agents.

I built an AI Business Analyst, which can analyze data in less than 70 lines of code using Crewai And Composio.

It can use your data on PSQL, run Python code in Sandbox and others using Composio, and create excellent visualization for you. Here's a quick demo video at https://x.com/GanatraSoham/status/1804929435889484068.

The code is fully open-sourced and would love to see people play around with it.

We can agree, though, that the ruling doesn't make being poor illegal though? Right?

I get that you are saying functionally its illegal to be poor, but that isn't actually what the ruling covered.

At least in my opinion, that extrapolation really muddies the water when it isn't necessary. The fact that we have so many homeless people and that courts ruled cities are allowed to ban people from camping outside regardless of situation is bad enough.
The hardware is not capable of conjuring up new characters, so this is limited to detecting things like bold and underline… and maybe mapping the overprinting to characters that already exist in the font.
Galaxy Brain thought:

I feel like the big bang is a white hole.

Come back I have more!

All world lines end in black holes. All world lines start at white holes.

Many Worlds theory is pretty popular. I buy into it. Every thing that can happen does happen, but also... There's this one that goes every black hole spawns a new universe, with slightly different laws of physics, based on the parent universe. So the multiverse starts favouring universes that can make new ones.

Does this mean the Spiderman universe is out there somewhere? Even hypothetically IDK. There's probably some constraint on consistent laws of physics.
The end of the universe is created by pre-life physics. I think it's unknown to humanity at this point whether a sufficiently advanced technology can deal with that.
