This is a very difficult question

In pervious times there were more options because there was very little divorce and people, for the most part, paired for life, which meant one-to-one pairing was easier, and, for people who didn't pair up, there were options such as monasteries, convents, etc

I am not an expert, just an old man, so take this advice for what it's worth: perhaps try getting involved with a church in a volunteer capacity and really focus on volunteering/helping other people. This may lead to finding someone you are compatible with and, if it does not, will give you a family-like (with all the good & bad associated with that) environment in which to connect with other people.
There is evidence code training helps with reasoning so if you count code as another language then, this makes sense

Is symbolic language a fuzzy sort of code? Absolutely, because it conveys logic and information. TLDR: yes!
My understand was the side effects were mostly stomach related, and that in turn is related to a specific gene. In theory people without the gene were far more likely to tolerate ibuprofen. Excessive alcohol use is also an issue.

The Entscheidungsproblem tends to rear its ugly problem

Remember NP is equivalent to second order logic with existential quantified. E.g. for any X there exists a Y

And that only gets you to truthy Trues, co-NP is another problem.

ATP is hard, and while we get lucky with some constrained problems like type inference, which is pathological in its runtime, but decidable, Pressburger arithmetic is the highest form we know is decidable.

It is a large reason CS uses science and falsification vs proofs.

Take something that stays comfortably on your wrist and turn it in something else to keep in your pocket and that needs to be held with an hand to be used, genius!
Now this is the real internet. Real people writing about things they're interested in, and not with the intention of turning it into a content farm. Of course at 7 years old we cannot expect a deep, fleshed out site like in the Geocities golden age, but I wish older kids and adults would continue this practice of authoring their own pages, and manually linking them together. CMSes are incredibly limiting by design, every template forces you into the default of "blog post writing mode" when HTML offers so much more flexibility.
Submarines aren't exactly disposable plastic bags or straws; I don't expect they'll be mothballed that quickly, and there are doubtless secondary uses for them in research and undersea exploration. (Including industrial "exploration" for mineral and gas deposits.) The kind of fast material production you call a nightmare gives rise to all sorts of positive possibilities.

Besides, there aren't that many unused tanks and planes in the West right now.
We're in the midst -- and perhaps even just the beginning -- of a military purchasing frenzy, especially in Europe.
For the benchmarks, it depends on how you interpret it. The other models are quite popular so many can have a starting point. Now, if you regularly use them you can assess: "just 3% better on some benchmark, 80% to 83, and at the cost of almost twice the inference speed and base base RAM requirement, but 16x context window, and for commercial usage..." and at the end "for my use case, is it worth it?"
I’d call that statement either grossly uninformed or a disrespect to the victims of fascism, say, under Stalin or Hitler.

I can recommend a reading of “The Kindly Ones” to get a sense of what that word means.
>Trying to build a business on the side.

The comfort of the current job makes it difficult to put the work into building a business eh.

> I don't like working with people anymore. I hate the mental constraints of 9-5, hence I'm trying to build a business.

That's not going to work out for you. Businesses require you to interact with people.

>Most days feel like groundhog day. I'm not depressed. I train regularly (4-5 times a week), I don't abuse alcohol and never touched drugs.

Good ole midlife crisis. Not exactly depression but it might as well be.

>I did big change in my life recently: quit my soul crashing job, went to travel for extended period, moved to a different country, found a different job. It was fun while it lasted, but now I'm back to the same place I tried to escape back then, albeit in a different physical location and work place.

What you're discovering is that you're not going to be in the 5%ers, the financially independent category.

This statistic got worse since this video published. It's now more of a 1%er group and everyone blames the system, but that's completely wrong.

>I want to change something but I don't know what. Anyone been in similar situation and was able to escape?

You're thinking, wow i'm never going to be more of a success than i am right now. You have conformed to the 'middle class'. You chose this.

There is no competition in our society. you can be whatever you want to be, so long as your helping others and trying your hardest. The greater the # of people you can help, the better.

No, this is Patrick
The location and surroundings will still be there, just as they've been for centuries. They can be investigated and dug by archeologists. There is a much higher risk that interesting archaeological sites get disturbed by construction, farming, and nature herself, such as floods and tree roots.

A metal detectorists do not like unnecessary digging, so you can be sure that they will retrieve their objects of interest with the minimum upheaval necessary.

I liked your analogy very much!
"Use AI on your company’s private data, and make sure it's private by running it on-prem."
Yeah, interesting stuff. So, the whole debate between closed forms and numerical methods is kind of overplayed. Even if you had a closed form for arc length, you’d still need numerical methods to compute exp and log. What functions actually work best for arc length? That’s the real question.

Also, while some folks are hyped about Pythagorean-Hodograph curves, I think they’re kinda niche. Euler spirals seem more practical, even if you have to compute a special function for them. Numerical solutions tend to be more stable anyway, especially in cases where a closed form might break down, like near straight lines.
It sure is pernicious.

It amazes me how much the brain can lie to you like that. And really, when you consider the spectrum of mental illness, anhedonia is almost on the milder side. Of course, it doesn't feel that way at all when it really gets going
You're talking about checking boxes, but are they your boxes or the boxes of what seems to be the norm? Your own, deeply personal, true goals are the ones that can change how you work and feel about your work and life.

You could try coaching (look for ICF certified, or if you're in UK, AC certified coach). This would help you find goals that trully matter TO YOU, and develop fulfilling process for reaching these goals.

You could also try pschoterapy. This could help you be more self-aware and develop mental skills for dealing with feelings that you described.

I like to start with a fairly unambitious bit of procedural code and gradually introduce abstractions when it starts to get complicated or repetitious.

Straight code becomes functions, occasionally a group of functions cry out to become a class.

In C++ this is a huge effort to do - change hurts more there. In python it's much less painful and I end up with a program that is some imperfect composite of object oriented with functions. Next week when I want it to do more I move it further down the road to structure.

I also like keeping side effects in their own ghettos and extracting everything else out of those if possible but I'm not a big functional programming person - it's just about testing. Testing things with side effects is a pain.
Just an anecdote, but I'm more optimistic than ever despite news like this. I live in the middle of nowhere, northwest Iowa, and I see more EVs than ever. The town where I buy my groceries has two Tesla charging stations and one Electrify America station, in a town of 15k people.

This will have no context for anyone reading this, but seeing a Tesla on the drive to that town would be such an interesting sighting that I'd point it out to my wife each time. Now I spot so many of them (along with the occasional Rivian, Kia or Bolt like my own) that I stopped so I wouldn't bore her. :P

ICE vehicles (especially trucks like the F-150) will always have a place out here , but EVs have exploded from my pov compared to just a few years ago.
Public Health agencies (at least in the US) collecting data about residents is a thing. People just get a little touchy about government programs collecting all this data ...
Or have a self-cleaning, self-sanitized shower van with lifts and adaptive equipment make the rounds like an ice-cream truck.
For quite a while before I built my homelab, my git server was a flash drive plugged into my OpenWRT router.

Honestly I still kind of prefer that to gitlab et al. It's nice to not have to leave my terminal to setup a new repo. It takes so much more effort to log into a website and dismiss a bunch of notifications before I can click even more buttons to create a new repo.

I like having all my repos accessible through the website, but I really just want to create new projects through ssh like a civilized person.
I don't agree range anxiety is overblown. It's a real issue, having driven an EV for a year now. We may drive 50ish miles most days but not being able to go on long trips is a deal breaker; it forces us to keep a second car which is impractical for the vast majority of people.
Working on a product comparison platform that automates a lot of sorting through different self published content.

It's "Mega Backdoor Roth" -- no "IRA." It's in your 401k, not an IRA plan. This is wholly distinct from the "backdoor Roth IRA" contributions which also have backdoor and Roth in the name.
You will need enough VRAM, 1080ti is not going to work very well, maybe get a 3090 with 24GB VRAM.

Sadly, it's the advice of the typical parent - bring children into the world to suffer for entirely selfish reasons with no regard for the needs, feelings, or welfare of the HUMAN BEINGS they are creating.

"Create children in order to cure your existential dread" only takes into consideration the needs & feelings of one of of the potentially many humans affected by such a choice.

Nobody fucking cares about the severe pain of the victims this sort of advice creates.
To be fair you can do that with an ice manual transmission too via engine braking.
Apple's continued insistence on "privacy" in their marketing is just plain stupid. They somehow assume that if you've bought an iPhone, you automatically trust every single one of their online services as well, including their asinine app review. They literally don't allow you to take your own responsibility for your data, they treat you like a child who doesn't quite understand yet how the world works. It ain't privacy if the damn thing couldn't get past the out of the box experience unless some Apple server allows it.
Isn't that mostly a question of composability?
What about other communities outside of work and “business”?

My pops has been going to a local temple for almost 20 years now, he’s not a religious person it’s so he can integrate with people in the community.

Try a guided journey with psychedelics, in my experience it’s always a good hard-reset on the brain.
> probably doable in like 5 lines of pandas/numpy

Yeah, that's what bugs me about this type of question... he might be looking for that specifically, or something that can scale to exabytes of data (so some sort of map/reduce thing). I'd probably produce something like this _in an actual interview scenario_:

users = {}

count = 0

for line in open('input.txt'):
count += 1
if count == 1:
continue
(user,page,load_time) = line.split(',')
if user in users:
page_list = users[user]
else:
page_list = users[user] = []

page_list.append(page.strip())

count = {}
max_count = 0
max_seq = None

for page_list in users.values():
if len(page_list) > 2:
for i in range(len(page_list) - 2):
seq = ''.join(page_list[i:i+3])
if seq in count:
count[seq] += 1
else:
count[seq] = 1

if count[seq] > max_count:
max_count = count[seq]
max_seq = seq

print(max_seq)

... and it would really depend on whether the interviewer just liked me personally whether he'd say, "yeah, that's reasonable" or rip it apart for using too much memory, taking too much time, etc...
I don't know you, but I am also in my mid 30s, work a boring (but comfortable) tech 9-5 job, and have been trying to build something on the side for a while. I have a great girlfriend, earn a decent amount of money, own a house, am healthy and work out.
So we do seem similar, but I did abuse alcohol and more. Tried to find pleasure in hedonistic ways.

A few years ago I started asking myself: "Is this it? Is this all that life has to offer? What's the point?". I was raised secular, and never knew spirituality or religion, but decided to delve in.
I was, however, very much against Christianity and was willing to try anything except that. Long story short, after reading about religions, history, theology, I ended up becoming a proponent of the thing I hated the most.

Now I see beauty in life, and especially the future. My fiance and I are getting married, we now go to Church, we're both looking forward to starting a family.

I don't know if you're religious in any way, or interested at all. I was definitely not interested the first 30 years of my life.

If you'd like: I'd be willing to get into contact with you if you need to talk. Not to convert you to Christianity, but since we seem similar in this very narrow scope, maybe we can both learn from each other.

Regardless, I truly hope you find your salvation, as I have found mine. God bless!

As per GDPR it is the data collector who has to reason why he needs that data, not the user who has to defend his privacy. The collector has to clearly articulate what is collected, how it is used and who processes said data. And the user has to accept that s before the collector can do anything.

While I understand that the US is not the EU and there is no GDPR, I firmly believe the GDPR enforces good rules in favour of the consumer. Hence, any company that does differently - albeit legal - acts morally despicable. Americans should follow that thought more, than very often put that burden of defense unto the people.
I love that domain name.
OpenAI is releasing GPT-4o Mini, a cheaper, smarter model
> Where's the finance or legal models from Mistral or Meta or OpenAI?

Programming is "weird" in that it requires both specialized knowledge and specialized languages, and the languages are very different from any language that humans speak.

Legal requires specialized knowledge, but legal writing is still just English and it follows English grammar rules, although it's sometimes a very strange "dialect" of English.

Finance is weird in its own way, as that requires a lot more boring, highly-precise calculations, and LLMs are notoriously bad at those. I suspect that finance is always going to be some hybrid of an LLM driving an "old school" computer to do the hard math, via a programming language or some other, yet-unenvisioned protocol.

> programming really does seem to be the ideal usecase for LLMs in a way that other professions just haven't been able to crack.

This is true, mostly because of programmers' love of textual languages, textual protocols, CLI interfaces and generally all things text. If we were all coding in Scratch, this would be a lot harder.

> Is there an age where parenting wouldn’t humble you?

I don't think there's a specific age. It's different for everyone. There should be a point in life when you have it good and know how to keep it that way. You need to have been through enough ups and downs yourself that kids are no longer a "sacrifice".

> the joy as being able to appreciate the world from your children’s eyes, along with all their enthusiasm for it. The world anew.

Yeah don't take this the wrong way, but I think this sentimental thinking might be part of the problem. The parent can find all the joy they want in raising their kids, but that's not really the task at hand. The locus of control needs to be internal especially if you're a parent.
I highly recommend The Path Between the Seas, about the building of the Panama Canal - https://www.amazon.com/Path-Between-Seas-Creation-1870-1914/...

I didn't realize how important that project was to the strengthening of the federal government, government stimulus, public health, American industry exports, etc. It also showed how sophisticated things like investing and lobbying were 130 years ago - I thought those were newer concepts.
Agreed, I definitely don't think it's simply a vanity metric. What sucks is when you're somewhere between the typical market salary and the top FAANG pay scale. It's a very long/hard road to jump up when you're a little older (49), but on the flip side, seeing a 25-40% pay drop if you need to work and need something sooner than later is also a hard position to be in.

The point is that any random byte string can be decoded by Elligator to become a point matching the curve equation. This means that such a check is virtually useless and tells you nothing about whether there is a hidden key exchange happening or not.
Interested in the new base model for fine tuning. Despite Llama3 being a better instruct model overall, it’s been highly resistant to fine-tuning, either owing to some bugs or being trained on so much data (ongoing debate about this in the community). Mistral’s base model are still best in class for small model you can specialize.

Offensive Security Testing Alongside Incident Response
For real. The concept of “you have to love yourself before you can love others” is cliché but.. bringing kids into the world, that are a massive responsibility, I think should be a decision made with a full understanding of the work and love needed to do it right.

How tf are you gonna have the emotional capacity for kids if you don’t have it even for yourself??
I don't think people are recommending having children as a solution to solve any problems. It is simply a big life decision that changes perspective a lot. It also makes dealing with boring drudgery a lot more tolerable. It brings meaning to people who lost it. Parenting is an important stage in life after all.
I doubt they could. Their corpus almost certainly is mostly composed of copyrighted material they don't have a license for. It's an open question whether that's an issue for using it for model training, but it's obvious they wouldn't be allowed to distribute it as a corpus. That'd just be regular copyright infringement.

Maybe they could share a list of the content of their corpus. But that wouldn't be too helpful and makes it much easier for all affected parties to sue them for using their content in model training.
Looking for the Intuition Underlying Multi-Factor Stock Selection
Good point, I hadn't considered state laws. It will be interesting to see if other states go the other direction. Iowa, where I live, has such heavy investment in ethanol that I wouldn't be surprised to see the legislature try to enact some kind of misguided ban on EV sales.
Also a Buffalo native! I'm interested if this experience was universal, but in elementary school, it felt like we had a history unit about the Erie Canal every year. I must've had three field trips over the years to see the Lockport locks.
It's just short-term thinking of managerial class running companies like Ford or GM, not lack of infrastructure.

Thanks to Tesla U.S. has pretty good charging network. And it's very cheap to build (relatively speaking).

During the years that Tesla was investing in world-wide charging network despite loosing money, GM and Ford had plenty of profits they could have invested in that obvious un-blocker of EV adoption.

They didn't but that's on them and their management. The state (what you call "us") doesn't need to be involved. If Tesla alone was able to build and fund U.S.-wide network, if every other car company in U.S. chipped in, charging network could have been several times bigger today.

It'll be several times bigger, it'll just take few more years.

The real blocker is lack of good EV cars, priced competitively. Chinese have those which is why EU is now panicking and creating additional, punishing tariffs on Chinese cars, to protect their mis-managed car industry.

And it will work for a few years, until Chinese build factories in Europe and crush European car makers anyway.

I have relatives in West Tennessee, and they claim their area has "rolling hills"--gentle swells like the earth moved in waves before resettling (unlike the author's claim of "flat as Kansas"--though maybe hen only saw the farms and didn't realize the geoengineering).

Old folk there claim they use that metaphor because that's not metaphorical, but actual what happened in 1811/12.

The Arkansas side is flatter, but possibly because that's mostly in the Mississippi River's ambit (until you reach Crowley's Ridge. The article shows a picture of the mirror structure on the east side of the Mississippi called Chickasaw Bluffs which is very close to the current course of the river)
