Dear HN Readers,
For many years we are customers of GCP and AWS. We've tried to enhance the quota from 0 to 1 GPU on GCP in different regions. There seems to be no availability at google for 80 GB GPU's, they want to wire me into a sales process every time and refuse to upgrade the quota. Even better, we don't have a sales rep because that person has left google. They are asking me who my sales rep is and want me to fill out forms to get a new sales rep? I would partially understand the process if there would be multiple companies involved but at which company do you have to contact the quota department and they let you call another department, i find this very unprofessional and it is their internal business to allocate sales people to follow up if that is really required.

Reading all this, has anyone else issues with GCP and enhancing the Quota? It would be great to know if there are providers which assign you the resources which are required.

How to Become a Registrar (2012)
I do try and avoid my biases influencing my opinions on things, but almost by definition “bias” implies that I might not be fully aware of the thoughts that might be influencing.

Again, and I do not mean to repeat myself, the fact that I did concede he won the debate despite my distaste for him indicates that I am able to put them aside, at least a bit.

I find this recent kind of artificial “nuance” by simply pretending that having an opinion is somehow “tribalism” to be supremely annoying. It’s not clever, it just comes off people pleasing with the opposite effect.
Leak enough valuable information and you will be caught in a sting operation. https://9to5mac.com/2023/05/10/apple-leaker-sting-operation-...
It isn't any different, that is the point. They are all manipulating super-smart you far more than the NY Times was ever capable of doing. The fact that you think you organically found who to follow is really something.
Very thin on details (though there are some specs on the bottom), but how are you supposed to focus on something projected right in front of your eyeballs? I'm a bit unclear on how they solve this ..
> having Windows roll back to the last known version of a driver/extension after a failed boot (or several)

One of the problems with CrowdStrike was the update was a definition/config file that was pushed out by CrowdStrike. There was no driver update and the BSOD was caused by the existing driver failing to parse/load the new file pushed out. This means there was no last known good state to rollback to in terms of driver updates.

Granted I still agree that MS can hopefully improve things to avoid this problem in the future but this isn't a simple problem that the OS can guard from short of stopping 3rd party kernel drivers.
Yea people do. Some of the more recent interviews with Jimmy Carter is a good example. Recent as in pre his wife passing away. I havn't seen any interviews of him since then, so I am not sure if he is declining. It is often that in a long marriage, when one partner dies, the others start slipping. But the ones before, he was in his upper 90s and outside of the fact that me may not move particularly fast, he was (still is?) still sharp as a whip.
gdb's built-in replay implementation imposes a slowdown of about 10000× on your program, so if you can binary-search to the desired program state in less than 10000 restarts of the program, that will take less machine time than using reverse execution. in fact, the slowdown is large enough that even interactively navigating the debugger close to the right state repeatedly and then restarting the program is often enough

i have been able to use gdb's replay functionality usefully because i had an input file which crashed the program within a fraction of a second after startup. this meant that i could navigate backward from "this variable is wrong" to "how did this variable get set to that wrong value?" in only several minutes of waiting on the computer

I don't know if it actually helps, but for a while I was drinking so much coffee I gave myself ulcers.

I eventually got diagnosed ADHD in my 30s, and my doctor suggested that my coffee problem was a subconscious effort to self-medicate. I've been on stimulants for a few years and quit coffee easily (with some nasty headaches and such, but no real cravings)

I do still have coffee now and then, but only occasionally and only because I like the taste. I often stick to decaf when I do have it, too
Yeah, to put it in perspective, in 1988 I was still dreaming about an Amiga 500 or 2000 with less than 1% of that RAM.
They want to transfer responsibility. They want the things done, and they also don’t want to cop the flak for driving employees into burnout, but they don’t want to recruit more staff. So they say “work more, but don’t burn out, okay?” And now it’s not their fault if you don’t follow instructions…
I reject the analogy to Street View, due to the fact that a sign in a window isn’t Street View’s primary use, it’s an accident (plus the store owner is responsible for ensuring permitted use of publicly visible signs and is culpable for copyright violations, and that photography of anything in public view is permitted by law - see the famous “photographer’s rights”), whereas with AI, statistically reproducing the training examples is the primary intent of it’s design. Reproducing derivative remix works is its function and nature through and through. Whether the output is actually recognizable as one of the individual inputs is a different question from whether the output is a derivative work.

> Just because something sounds like a derivative work doesn’t mean it will infringe copyright or fail the fair use tests

That’s true! Remixes where the source comes from multiple songs have a history of escaping copyright claims more often than derivative works of a single song.

But that doesn’t change the fact that using copyrighted data without permission and without Fair Use exemption to train AI is currently illegal. And it doesn’t change the fact that when AI reproduces substantial portions of any given work, regardless of what the probability was, it is illegal. Claims that the probability of it are “exceedingly small” don’t stand up to the (now many!) actual cases filed in court demonstrating AI reproducing copyrighted works, and not because the chances were small, but because it simply breaks the law.
I disagree. His legacy is strong and he will be viewed very favorably.
gdb record and replay will absolutely eat up your piddly 64 gigs of ram in a few minutes if you just let it loose. it will eat your 12-terabyte hard disk too, it just takes a little longer. the gdb manual has many helpful tips for how to allocate your ram carefully to record and replay, as well as using a disk buffer instead of recording to ram, so the gdb dev team is already well aware of the problem
I had similar issues with Zen of a few different generations, and with various boards. As a result, I built a new machine around an Intel 12400 as well. I did have to buy a thermaltake socket reinforcement bracket to mitigate the bending issue.

Oddly, this Intel build somewhat restored my faith in humans to build hardware and software as the thing seems to work quite well.
Great language, would highly recommend at least trying it out.

>Its about as useful as trying to understand quantum physics from the perspective of a flat-earther

Wouldn't it make more sense to say trying to understand general relativity from the perspective of a flat-earther? At the quantum level, the world is flat--I mean, ontologically. "Dimension" is not used to describe space and time in the same way as in Einsteinian physics which retains a very Kantian model of the cosmos. But then you could certainly re-interpret Kant to make it cohere with quantum physics, I'm thinking of people like Deleuze and Latour here, which is why I alluded to a "flat" ontology.

But in truth, it sort of negates your point, since when it comes to gathering things from the totality of the productive process (which is what an LLM does), indexing them and creating a surrealist wet-dream of output, there is not going to be a "right" answer, in just the same way that a quantum physicist and a cosmologist are not going to be able to agree on the correct definition of time. Truth is at the level of feeling, not sense. No scientific instrument can detect the feeling that one thing caused another, even though we are absolutely sure of its continuity, and it is such continuity that stands as the basis of all scientific investigation. In the end, empirical laws, just like moral laws, simply "feel right," and that's it. The LLM tells us things that feel right. It is a good-feeling machine, yet it is precisely when we notice something wrong, when it seems totally off, in those sublime gaps, that it becomes the most enigmatic and, in fact, the most useful. The real beauty of the AI is in those gaps, in its imagination, because it is actually our own, projected outward and reflected back like a society-wide mirror. There is something wonderful in the dreams of a machine.
tbh, while I think flagging is manual, I definitely don't mind if political posts were just auto-flagged and then only one of them is "let through".

Although niche, and not aiming to be a google killer, kagi is profitable (according to a post blog post from May this year https://blog.kagi.com/what-is-next-for-kagi#1 ). So, who knows. Other search engines may actually live in a market owned by google...

Only (relative) nerds would be able to figure this out in practice. Using a voting system that “the common man” doesn’t fully understand is unfortunately kind of elitist/classist in its effects even though i understand that’s not the intention of the many who wish for it.
> The term “value identity” is not defined anywhere in this post, nor can I find it elsewhere in Mojo’s documentation, so I’m not clear on how Modular claims that Mojo solves the problem that Pin is meant to solve

I don't claim to know the answer either, but it reminds me of a great talk from Dave Abrahams, who worked on the value semantics for Swift together with Chris Lattner (who started Mojo). The talk is "Value Semantics: Safety, Independence, Projection, & Future of Programming" [0]

Nobody cared about virtualization when those systems were designed, other than IBM (and compatible) mainframe designers. None of that generation of workstation/server architecture - MIPS, SPARC, HP-PA, Alpha or for that matter 68k - had that as a consideration.
> usian

Indian, and the term is "American." We're speaking English - in English we have two separate continents, North and South America, or just "Americas."

Further, no other nation state uses the term "America" in its name. So when people say "American," they mean the USA, not Peru.

So, unless you want to speak Spanish (more than happy to), or Peru changes its name to American Republic of Peru, it's American, not "usian"

>kinda telling

why would I know every single oppressed group. Kinda telling that this is your reaction and kinda telling on your political leanings too when you can't give any other reasonable objections. (See, I can do this too lol - it's a dumb argument).
Its cool, but it also means the development of the language is very very slow. Async is still half backed and super complex, and I say that as a guy who has written rust code 40h/week for the past 3 years.
Not even a little bit. The Democratic Party has clearly stated policies and goals, the vast majority of which I agree with (possibly besides some of the trans policies). Who the final candidate is this time matters very little compared to making sure Trump doesn’t win and destroy American hegemony.
We had at least a few Apollo DN10k pedestals as servers at HQ, for purposes like SCM and what today would be called CI.

Even though by the time I arrived we were mostly buying Sun, HP-PA, and Windows NT, the company started as an Apollo shop. And so SCM at HQ was based on Apollo DSEE ("dizzy"), which they liked, hence, DN10k servers scattered around.

It is a pretty uncontroversial and commonly understood fact that the US Democratic party is center-right in the context of world politics.
I don't think VLIW is incompatible with virtualisation. The amount of CPU state you need to load and save on context switches is a little higher than other architectures so it has a minor effect on the efficiency of virtualisation. But other than that there's no reason VLIW can't be virtualised.

Not that the Apollos actually had hardware support for virtualisation features such as nested page tables. These machines were from the days before virtualisation was popular. Only IBM mainframes had it back then AFAIK.
>options in between

Except in this case, there are not. Context is important. We're discussing this particular planet, and I gave you examples that would be equivalent.

Like a lot of things never codified into law or the constitution — 250 years ago it seemed obvious that the voters wouldn’t do things that seem utterly insane, and that surely nobody who’s very openly, shamelessly corrupt would be elected and still maintain that support even when exposed. So here we are.

So the Framers figured nobody on the cusp of senility would run, and if he did, he wouldn’t get the votes. Because both would be ridiculous.

Especially considering that the only democracy they envisioned was the House, since everybody else was to be picked by nondemocratic means (essentially then, by an aristocracy, who would surely be wise enough to make a good decision).
Sorry, it's 'Differential Equations'. Tried quite a few times and nothing happens except the download link returned to 'ready to download' (highlighted) again without error or message.

It' s strange because 'Trigonometry' downloaded but the file I got was mfg.pdf — Modeling Functions and Graphs. So I don't know what's going on. I can only assume that there's some mixup in their files upload.

If you get it to work then signal as such and I'll try again. Good luck.
This just doesn't scale and it would have been a non starter because it would break so much exiting code. Mem swap is just one of the ways to move via mutable references, there are many many others. Option::take is one that I use quite often and it would be super weird if that was unsafe.

Eh, smartwatches are actually useful though - while I don't use them a lot for "phone replacement," I do use them for a lot of things they do really well, namely checking the time(lol), as well as health tracking. My watch constantly tracks my heart rate, any variations in it, as well as a bunch of other data, including sleep.

I don't need to manually adjust workouts, runs, or walks either. When I work out, it is decently accurate in tracking those too.

the other day it actually woke me up because my heart rate had dropped dangerously low. So, useful there.

Other than these, a lot of "doing stuff on watch" has been replaced by the RayBan Meta smartglasses for me tbf.
All the people saying "don't use fine-tuning" don't realize that most of traditional fine-tuning's issues are due to modifying all of the weights in your model, which causes catastrophic forgetting

There's tons of parameter efficient fine-tuning methods, i.e. lora, "soft prompts", ReFt, etc which are actually good to use alongside RAG and will likely supercharge your solution compared to "simply using RAG". The fewer parameters you modify, the more knowledge is "preserved".

Also, look into the Graph-RAG/Semantic Graph stuff in txtai. As usual, David (author of txtai) was implementing code for things that the market only just now cares about years ago.

I don’t think all (or even most) republicans are stupid, but I think that Trumpism (and demagoguery in general) is a natural consequence of the Republican party’s unwillingness to outright condemn the conspiracy nuts like Alex Jones.

They’ve flirted with that kind of thinking my entire life (with the Satanic Panic and acting like Harry Potter was out to brainwash children), but it feels like the conspiratorial stuff really picked up in around 2013; that’s at least when my grandmother stopped sending me unsolicited Fox News articles and started sending me unsolicited InfoWars articles, and when she started really going off the deep end.
The primary and convention system have always existed in parallel. In fact, the USA doesn’t really have a primary system for presidents, just rules each state establishes on delegates should vote given the outcome of whatever happened in their state (and not all states have primaries of course, there are still caucus only state I think?). Even under a strict interpretation of the current system, the VP would take over the ticket if something happened to the president, so we aren’t even far off from that.

Conservatives are just going to have to deal with there already being a mechanism in here for nominating a candidate in a convention.
Many excellent hinges have been shipped that don't wear out in years of regular use. I have no idea if this design will live up to those examples, but on brief reflection the hinges I've admired in products I've owned don't have screws. In short, my priors agree that lack of a screw is a positive.

maybe but Let these "different groups of 7 college kids" come to Bhutan and work where they can't even create Stripe or Azure accounts, where you can't pay on AWS or Google Cloud and need to run on free plans, where internet costs are among the highest in the world. I hope they can survive.
They are extracting slivers of pennies on a per-work basis. Not $$$.
That's an interesting solution. Would also not be unreasonable for like indexed loads/stores, though there fully getting rid of the built-into-instruction element type would have its problems.

While vrgatherei32 is certainly definable, it not existing does have the benefit of not burdening small impls with yet more connections for indices. Also, vrgatherei64, spooky.
Big exercise at it again.
An AI that doesn't know the little mermaid would have trouble interfacing contextually with a society where it’s common knowledge.
