Synthetic and generated data might not be garbage. Consider random chess positions. Those are generated,yet there's an engine out there that has objectively a higher chance of winning from that position.

There was also a paper on persistent computer programs after running random data iteratively over millions of cycles. This doesn't even have a 'goal'. which by itself is very interesting because of how similar it feels to how organisms develop by the act of persisting after a few billion years.

That is to say I largely agree with the premise that you can train and improve alot by absense of data. But if your original dataset is garbage, then training over and over might get limited by a hidden nash equilibrium that the algoritm can't escape due to lack of new information.

_No_ difference oversells it, IMO -- the fact that the entire OS crashed is what made fixing the bug so arduous, since it required in-person intervention. To be sure, running the code in userspace would still cause unacceptable service interruptions, but the fix could be applied remotely.
You might have some custom styling applied somehow, I'm also in Firefox on Windows and the text is quite close to black. It's defined as #403d39 in the CSS.

Instead of "house", you could also imagine a similar analogy around "amount of apples one person needs to eat to live".

The sociopathic villager who went to the village's communal trees, and took way more apples than they can ever eat, while others don't have enough apples to eat, should be tossed into the lake.

But the sociopathic villager tells stories in the village square, of how those villagers who are starving are lazy, and trying to eat apples without working to gather them.

A village elder starts to say they saw the sociopath going and taking the apples under the cover of darkness, and that's why some people are starving.

But the sociopath quietly welcomes the elder into the fold of those who have cellars full of more apples than they can eat. Then apple hoarding is suddenly the noble way of the ancestors, according to the elder. And, hey, look over there, at those lazy people over there trying to eat apples while working only a half day! Hate those greedy freeloaders, over there!

The housing crisis is one example, but I'm not talking about which parties have literally 100 houses in real society (nor want to get diverted with "just let developers make more money, by building more, and stop looking at any other factors of the problem"). I'm talking about essentials, greed, and corruption more generally.

A math Olympiad with many teams is going to seem slow at time even if you know a lot of math.

My take is that people respond to emotions and could relate to the ups and downs of people solving math problems even if they can't follow some or any of the math.

There are very few tricks I rely on:
1. Skin is to smooth and shiny
2. Some kind of blur or glow
3. clear logical mistake in the picture
4. I know the picture/artwork already
5. AI could not have come up with something this deep.
6. Hands

However there are several factors working against you:
1. Real photographers tend to like the moody/glowy/shiny look of pictures.
2. Your knowledge about the topic comes from the internet and above mentioned photographers. You trained on the same dataset the AI did.
3. In these tests you know one is real and one is AI
4. In real settings the person publishing the picture can avoid do the quality control to make sure it isn't obvious, or collect data from tests like these to improve first. (Next level of captcha: is this image real or fake?)

7/10, would have been 8/10 if I'd done them all the same way, which is just a gut reaction to whichever I immediately think is AI.

I briefly let some detail convince me to switch my vote on the first one (frog) and got it wrong, and from there decided I either needed to spend time with each image or go with my immediate gut belief. Gut is pretty good on these; spending the time to analyze probably even better, but spending just enough time to notice a detail or two will probably push accuracy to 50%.

I don't really care that I got the aurora borealis wrong, those typically look unreal anyway, are usually long exposures, I have so little experience with the subject material.

I also got the pangolin wrong, which was the only one aside from borealis where I had no strong gut feeling. I don't have an understanding why this
one was harder for me.

There's no way to run the experiment twice but if someone made a larger set I'd be curious to find out if I do better or worse on a desktop than on my phone (how I did these), I find my experience of images is extremely different between the two.

Except that's not happening for major purchases. Housing is more expensive than ever. Education is more expensive than ever. Healthcare is more expensive than ever. Cars and Trucks are more expensive than ever.

Drug war bad, but I'm not sure these drugs can be equated so simply. Caffeine has a mild euphoric effect but not nearly as much as meth. Both caffeine users and meth users are prone to hyper-focused behavior loops - e.g. super meticulous house cleaning. But meth is so much more euphoric that the behaviors don't have to be intrinsically rewarding at all. For many people, when you feel that high, doing pretty much anything is rewarding. That's why you get weird behaviors on meth like people pulling out their hairs one by one, or completely disassembling a working TV.

Those behaviors are not conducive to holding down most jobs. If our society did more work educating and supporting people in productively integrating their use of drugs into a functional lifestyle, maybe it would be less of a problem. Certainly there are some ways people could use meth that are positive. But I still think there's something about meth that makes it more likely to ruin lives than caffeine.

My longtime business partner was this sort of personality and was the one who got investment money, distribution deals, and the like.

He referred to himself as a "glad-hander" or "marketing engineer". Between the two of us, he called himself the "outside man" (most of his work was outside the office talking to people and shaking their hands) and me the "inside man".

I didn't want to go inside the vaccine injection site.

It was 2021 and I had made the appointment for my second COVID shot, but that was the easy part. I didn't mind the needles or the medical procedure. My first shot was inside a quiet pharmacy. But the idea of standing in line surrounded by other people to get my second dose made my skin crawl and I wanted to curl back into my bed.

I was on the verge of a panic attack, so I picked up my phone to talk to someone who I knew could calm me down and understand my fears.

"Come on, we got this," Saia said, with a smile.

My hands were shaking and I felt myself sweating, but I practised the breathing exercises she recommended. She described how she would hold my hand and kiss my cheek, making me smile despite my social anxiety. She reminded me I could count on her.

Fair answer, thanks for sharing.

This aligns with my own experience. I do deep backend systems stuff in my day job (just bringing this up to refute the whole "people just don't want to learn Linux" thing, I've even done kernel and eBPF work in the past and can still see value in Vercel), but still support some mostly front end Next.js apps for some small clients from back when I was freelancing.

The vercel ecosystem is perfect for that kind of work. I don't want to (and probably don't have the time) to be managing a bunch of cloud infrastructure for several varied small businesses outside of my day job. I need something where I get a call, go in and make a change, send them a nice preview link to preview the change, then deploy. Vercel makes that kind of business very easy to manage for me, and realistically none of these clients have the kind of traffic where a 100% price difference over managing it yourself would be saving them a lot of money or have a material impact on their finances or my pricing.

My clients get more value from retaining my services this way because I have more free time to help them make actual changes, and less time taken up managing their infra, which they wouldn't see and wouldn't understand and shouldn't have to care about. They pay me a pretty average to below average web guy amount to be their "web guy", not their "server/cloud guy".

If I switched from Vercel and started managing it all myself in AWS or Hetzner or something and trying to pinch pennies, I probably wouldn't be able to substantially lower my prices (time opportunity cost), but I WOULD probably have to drop some clients that have been with me a long time and that I feel some responsibility for.
> In Physics, we graduate an order of magnitude more Phds than there are posts for Phds. There are few remunerative fields which hire Phd physicists.

IIRC, that's even worse in the humanities in both regards.

I'd kind of think doing a career change would be easier for a Phd physicist, because they could benefit from stereotypes especially if they switch into some kind of quantitative or math-y field.

Unfortunately crossing the user space barrier would cost something regardless of how lightweight "threads" would be. Also, making the OS the scheduler for all async tasks would preclude different scheduler designs since every runtime would have to use the OS's scheduler.

That makes even less sense, what "extra bit of code" are you talking about? monostate is not designed to be used with optional: although there's the odd case where that's useful an optional<monostate> is bijective to a boolean, and because C++ does not have zero-sized types it's less efficient (as it takes two bytes).
I’m in a thriving affluent family community, and I haven’t seen anything like what my lived experience is portrayed in media after the 1980s.

AFAIK, an ebpf function can only access memory it got handed as an argument or as result from a very limited number of kernel functions. Your function will not load if you don't have boundary checks. Fighting the ebpf validator is a bit like fighting Rust's borrow checker; annoying, at times it's too conservative and rejects perfectly correct code, but it will protect you from panics. Loops will only be accepted if the validator can prove they'll end in time; this means it can be a pain to make the validator to accept a loop. Also, ebpf is a processor-independent byte code, so vectorizing code is not possible (unless the byte code interpreter itself does it).

Given all its restrictions, I doubt something complex like a graphics driver would be possible. But then, I know nothing about graphics driver programming.

I heard an interview from a state rep in Florida complaining about term limits, something like "your first term is like your Freshman year, you don't know anything, your second is like your Sophomore year, etc" and her point was that you can't get anything done without being able to serve at least 6 years or so.

I think that's kind of bogus. If you can't figure out how to be an effective politician in your first term then you don't deserve to be elected for a second!

Yes, copyright is a convention. It’s subject to change. However, IP protections are written into the US Constitution and the bar to change it is relatively high.

Murder is also a crime by convention, there’s no natural law against it. But we generally recognize that to live in a stable society, we must live by certain conventions.

You can play a song on your computer because that is considered appropriate use. You selling tickets to play it, or to copy it and sell it is not because they conceivably limit the authors ability to make money from their creation.

You may not realize it but software is also covered by copyright. For most intents and purposes, it’s considered the worlds worst book; you cannot legally copy and sell it if the license doesn’t allow it.

Edit: added the word "legally" to be more precise

I can read all these technical extrapolations of physics but I don’t think humans can run much faster than Usain or they would currently do so. Without more performance enhancing drugs and I’m assuming we don’t want that. We are going to live in a weird world in the future when we realize things can’t just continue forever up and to the right on all charts. We may just live at the plateau for eons. I believe we are all very lucky to have lived at a very special time in human history.

And I think it is smart to prepare yourself for when the world realizes that stuffing money into stocks can’t give 10% every year forever.
