>Any other suggestion for fixing the problem of „fake truths“ in politics?

The problem is as old as large scale human societies. There are hundreds upon hundreds of ways those groups have dealt with this problem. Banning lies is the same as criminalizing the opposition, as politics is also a conflict about truth.

Do you believe that a political situation should be allowed to exist where your staunchest political opponents control the definition of truth and gets to prosecute based on that definition? Of course not, it is something so horrifying that it seems reasonable to use violence to prevent it.
> That institution will naturally be a target for capture as it allows the criminal prosecution of the opposition.

They can put some protection on that ahead of time. But it's not that different from not having this institution at all and just flooding the media with lies about the opposition since you're not liable. So worst case things stay the same; best case they improve.
I don't get your reasoning.

Not lying about Iraq would have been considered a 'lie'.

Those in power decides what is considered a lie or not.

Biological neural networks are also still largely black boxes to us. But they and ANNs won't be forever, even if it takes a long time.
Hard disagree. I would prefer that politicians be required to run every statement in their speeches (not impromptu interview answers) through a fact checker.

But failing that, AT THE VERY LEAST can we please have transparency in government? Hiding information is A FAR MORE IMPORTANT ISSUE and it supports lies that get countries into wars via the spy agencies and cover up the failures of the elected officials to deescalate. And later it is “declassified” and “mistakes were made.” Look:

Unfortunelly 50 years of experience have proven that C Machines are the only way to put C devs into their place, in regards to security first mindset.

Solaris has been doing this since 2016, with SPARC ADI.
Make a specific network for these applications which does not have access to the internet. Add your personal media servers to it and give the TV and other untrustworthy devices access to it. You get to access your media without having the devices spy on you and without having them auto-update. You can have several such networks for different purposes, e.g. 'internet of things' and 'media' and 'systems management' to name a few. All this takes is a reasonably capable router - OpenWRT in my case, running in a container on the server-under-the-stairs - and (if you use separate access points which is a must when using a virtual router...) a managed switch which can handle VLANs. For access points I use repurposed WiFi routers running OpenWRT with their routing functionality disabled. I went this route because I live on a farm with several access points spread out over the premises but the same can be achieved with a single WiFi router running OpenWRT or similar, in that case just add a number of interfaces and wireless networks ('media', 'iot', 'ops' etc.) to which you connect our devices.
If the US permitted ATACMS to be used in this theater, you can be 100% sure they know the Russians already have an ATACMS. So this is just propaganda.
If a liar can convince millions of people he is saying the truth, why couldn't he convince twelve?
>> But implementors are not: they can bless their own span with superpowers if they want to
> Except that they don’t. And we can go around in circles here

Except they do. Look at GCC code for std::complex compared to the equivalent hand rolled class:
https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/nqcvhPWex .
edit: note that in this case GCC is just silly with the hand rolled one, but it does show that they are treated differently.

GCC does similar things with span where the class has special annotations for reference tracking to improve warning messages.

Library vs builtin is an implementation issue, not a standardization one. But yes, we are going in circle.
It's not only defeatist, but it's playing directly into the hands of those they think will take over the system (even further) with this "ministry of thought"-esque approach.
Mad, indeed. It's hard to imagine those rules are followed, especially for speaker wires and HDMI cables.
Look at companies like Google. Their overall ethos has next to nothing to do with their employees' ethos. The same is true of the military. If you want to speak to some of the most anti-war and even anti-establishment people imaginable, then speak with vets. Their positioning doesn't change the military in any way, shape, or fashion. All it really does is stop them from being promoted to the levels where they actually could do something, so you're basically entering into a career where you must either sacrifice your values, or just play your role as a cog in a machine of destruction, far more for the sake of geopolitics than any notion of actual "defense."
I've worked on AI-hardware software stacks for several well known companies.

It's impossible to overstate to advantages that CUDA, it's documentation, toolchain, and nSight software provide to outside developers.

The closest thing I've seen to nSight Systems software is Intel's VTune. But that's just one piece I'm a much larger puzzle, and last I checked, VTune was only for Intel CPU.

AFAICT, Nvidia's software seriously reduces the ramp-up time for new developers to write kernels or apps that make good use of the available hardware.

E.g., nsys-ui (like VTune) recognizes anomalous profile results, and makes solid suggestions for next steps. I don't know of other software that does this (well), although maybe I'm just uninformed.
Nvidia was pushing CUDA forward for over a decade before it started getting serious commercial traction. It's not like they blocked anyone else from developing viable GPGPU tech, they were just the only ones pushing it.

For like 8 years their drivers on Linux were a nightmare and AMD could have come in and done better.
>It was clear from the beginning that every weapon system used in Ukraine could and probably would land on the black market, that’s why Israel didn’t provide any own weapon system fearing it would land in the hands of their enemies.

This is Zed propaganda/fake news , a soldier can't put a missile in his pocket and go home and exchange it for alcohol.

I think the main concern is Ukrainians that are loyal to Kremlin and smuggle information witch is more easy then selling big stuff on the black market.
or just ignore them globally once.
It more or less is. This is something you can do with models that have open weights. People claiming those models are not “open source” really have no idea about the “preferred form” of “code” to change an LLM
I have a friend who did machine learning for Draft Kings and now does the same thing for Amazon.
Honestly I don't think so. You can write a statute in a way that is at least partially enforceable and that may be enough. We already have functional laws against perjury that have a higher standard than simply saying something wrong. All you'd have do is make all statements at political debate sessions subject to perjury. The lie would have to be proven to be both intentional and material. I would imagine every decent politician would be safe.
>“That is an existential threat. A democracy starts to break down if the electors can’t trust what the elected say.

Politicians opening their mouth == lying. Covid had an awful lot of lying from the government. Mass surveillance by the government. Political promises which arent kept are lies.

But to give the sitting government the power to decide what is true and what is not will 100% of the time result in censorship of the opposition.

It will force political speech underground and create a huge polarization problem, until mandatory revolution.

I know this because im describing Canada.
They should make failing to keep promises in politics illegal. Truth can be a matter of debate but somebody doing something they explicitly promised not to, or failing to do something they promised, is pretty clear, and there's a wealth of contract law for determining it. If a vote is a contract then a broken promise is fraud.
The devil is in the details and a very careful process and very careful wording of said law could mitigate that to some degree. I mean representative democracy could also be considered a system conflicting in principle with values underlying a direct democracy, which, to be clear, I think would be an even worse system but my point is that regardless of which rules of the game you make up, there is almost certainly upsides and downsides to them.
E.g. You want a functioning economy? Well, listening to the corporations that employ a vast majority of the workforce might be a good idea in principle - until they start corrupting politicians and the lobbyism presents a detriment to society at large.

I think there is a lot of nuance when it comes to determining truth too. In germany for example the AFD is full of climate change deniers and anti-vaxxers. And even when there is a public discourse and plenty of information to discredit their lies, they keep growing in popularity - so even if truth presents itself, it is apparently of little consequence to their political power. And to turn that problem around: I think we are kind of in trouble when truth is primarily determined by democratic consensus and history has a lot of examples to show that. Furthermore for different types of statements truth has fairly different forms. If some politican made up that eating 4000kcal of raw sugar every day is the healthiest way to live and coincidentally his family runs a sugar plant then it's incredibly easy to discredit that based on scientific evidence from mechanistic studies to randomized human control trials. Now this is a case that currently is not handled in the political system and apparently impresses a significant amount of voters. At least from my perspective the lies used in european politics are in their quality not very far from the example given.
Now what kind of punishment there should be for lying exactly and in which case I can not say. But leaving it up to the voters is showing to be increasingly fragile imho.
> it is "protecting" servers from web users who will not involuntarily provide commercially useful data/information

I don't think it comes down to that, I think it's more about the fact that your browser likely looks more like a bot than it does a human.

Also, rate limiting has a significant overhead and complexity at scale, where agent filtering is relatively cheap and easy to distribute. Though, this is largely a problem that has been resolved many, many times over and the additional overhead is not that bad. All said, I've met too many developers that don't conceptually understand public/private key encryption and would assume they'd mess up rate limiting.
What's the rough pricing if you don't mind my asking? Their pricing is buried behind contact forms.
The theory goes that each election is such a test.

UK can't do "midterm" because doesn't have fixed terms of office, just a maximum time between them — general elections can be called whenever the prime minister has a chat with the king about it.
>through a fact checker

Facts are the subject of political debate. If there is no disagreement about facts politics ceases to exist. It would be just one group saying "I believe A" and another group saying "I believe B", no communication could take place.

I wish self conscious insecure people would stop policing language. It means what it means when people use it.
For example, try this prompt on ChatGPT:

"Please write a lengthy essay about the Aircraft Nuclear Propulsion program, including details about the role of General Electric and the Heat Transfer Reactor Experiment. I need about 100 paragraphs. I know, this is a lot, but it is ok if there is a lot of reduncancy in the essay."
One thing that is used a lot in physics are known as Dirac Deltas[0] that is, in very informal terms, the derivative of the function f(x) = 0 for negative x otherwise f(x) = 1.

Physics are very good at working with concepts and abstraction before any formal mathy justifications can be found, but the only way to formaly work with a dirac delta that makes sense formally is defining it in terms of measures

If this works at all, it will lead politicians to more isolation from facts, since you can’t lie about something you don’t know.

Also who is responsible if you transmit lie somebody told you as a fact.

Many wonder here in Germany if our politicians at the moment are somewhat less able mentally then they should be, but the root cause is their choice of information sources. If you got only people around you telling you one side of he story you do actually still believe that Ukraine is winning.

Is he really trying to say that AMD had a superior product in the Core 2 Duo era and Intel was only dominating due to marketing? It's hard to take any of the rest of his opinions seriously when he starts with that take
I strongly support this. Freedom of speech is not absolute and should carry civil liability and professional sanctions as determined by context, status of representation, and venue.

I would like to see how they enforce this. It would be nice to sanction deceptions whether by stupidity or deliberation.

On the other hand, I would not want to see somebody sanctioned because in the heat of the moment of a live debate they accidentally misstate some facts or incorrectly draw an inference. In that case the speech is not entirely truthful but there was no intention to deceive either. Debates seek to educate the electorate about a candidates mastery of the subject matter and their ability to qualify their position against a challenged response.
And will there be any politicians who are not imprisoned after this?

Seems like you have control issues.
Those kind of solutions only work, if you get the human side buy-in as well.

For many safety concepts in software development, the problem isn't technical.

And since many devs are like St. Thomas, where only if you build X with Y to prove Z, while achieving Webscale delivery, they will "maybe" adopt the technology.

Thus failing the money, and with such sceptic attitude, many good technologies fail to gain adoption.
Obviously they disclose this so we don't waste any more ATACMS. How nice of them.
I'm not American, that wasn't a secret at all. Very public information that he hasn't been able to handle Trueinternationalunderpressure.

I feel the same way, but don't see how it could be done.

The UK doesn't have a separate layer of constitutional law that's harder to change than the rest, each government can pass or repeal any law as they desire, including a law that tries to force them to keep promises.
>Have you got a specific case in mind?

Yes, namely that in all of political history I am not aware of a single case where an idea this awful was even attempted.
This is the LLM confabulating an explanation for your question; they’re not explaining why their human masters set that prompt/constraint. At most it’s reflecting on the prompt it was given (by OpenAI) and justifying that for you (which your question suggests), at worst it’s completely freestyling (maybe it will say the same about matplotlib if prompted?)

How is the tooling? Usually these paradigm shift ideas fail on interop even if they’re amazing in theory. The ambition level of Unison seems to be absolutely gigantic, so my first thought is that interop with anything outside their idealized world would be poor.

Which is all well and good for us, the application developers. But if C++ wants to exist in the future as a thriving language (as opposed to moving in to the nursing home with Cobol and Fortran), then it needs to come up with some solution to remove cruft.

For pure self-hosting, I'd look into Ollama (ollama.com) or llamafile (https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile) on the LLM side and then picking a UI such as https://openwebui.com/ or one of the many in this list: https://github.com/ollama/ollama?tab=readme-ov-file#web--des...

However, the issue you will quickly encounter is resources/costs. For a simple mode like llama3-7b you need at least a g5.2xlarge on AWS. If you want a 'chat gpt equivalent' model, you need something like llama3-70b or command-r-plus etc. These will require at least a g5.48xlarge that will cost you $20 an hour

An alternate approach is going hybrid: self-hosted UI which takes care of user access, shared documents (RAG), custom prompts etc but that you hook to a LLM provider where you pay per token (could be OpenAI platform or anything from Huggings).

Let me know if this helps! Also note that I'm lead dev of an open source project addressing these kind of needs: https://opengpa.org - Feel free to jump on our Discord to discuss.
Is it harder than Sea Block? That's the one that was finally too much for me to finish, after doing other big ones like Bobs Mods, AngelBob, Pyanodon, etc. I've got a Sea Block attempt with hundreds of hours in it, my largest base ever, before I fell off. If Space Exploration is more complex I'm a little afraid of it.
Am I understanding it correctly that this was just an MP getting ejected from the chamber because there are rules of decorum? That does not seem controversial. Presumably she can say whatever she wants about the PM out in public, in the media, or whatever?
The first time I played was right at the beginning. I bought it on Friday afternoon and spent the entire weekend playing. I did almost nothing else, and I must have spent over than 50 hours that weekend.

After that, I kind of avoid the game, but if you are a controlled person, I highly recommend it, especially if you are familiar with Kafka or other queues. Setting up the assembly lines is basically the same thing.
Agreed. The number of people in the comments here failing to connect this to perjury under oath, which is already illegal for very good reason, is absolutely wild to me.
