The thing about density advocates which I don't understand is why they wall themselves off to the irrefutable, unquestionable, fact that the second anyone, anywhere in the world, has enough money they move to a less dense area.

I was born in and lived and worked in Germany (mainly the Mainz-Frankfurt corridor) for many years. The second people get money they buy a station wagon and move out of their cramped apartment into a single-family home in an American-style neighborhood where they can park their caravan in the side yard and the only things they can smell or hear are their own farts.

I also lived in Japan for several years. The very first thing people do when they get enough money is move out into a single-family detached home in an American-style (SLIGHTLY DENSER BUT STILL DON'T COME AT ME I HAVE PROOF) suburb where they can't feel the vibrations of people's footsteps as they walk down the shared apartment building hallway. Also, they usually buy a station wagon.

It is as though the density freaks are completely incapable of comprehending that living packed in like sardines is unnatural and inhuman, and walkability means fuck-all when you get sick of smelling the nasty shit your neighbor is cooking while listening to them argue.

I used to be a hip young urban professional who pretended that spending too much for a watered-down cocktail at a late-night gallery show was hip and cool and oh-so-cultured.

Now I just want space for my ham radio antennas, nobody to complain about my ham radio antennas, dark (Bortle 4 where I live) skies for stargazing, and I want to be able to walk out on my deck with my dick out with no risk of being seen.

I have missed density for approximately 0.0001 yoctoseconds and if inequality results then you work to raise up the people stuck in the jenga towers of humanity, not the other way around.
hello, what's the problem with the iphone app ? you can go on the app store and see it exists

we are launching this new model but we make batteries since 2021

I wonder about OpenAI's moat. Thanks to advances in hardware and rapidly improving open-source ML frameworks, it's getting significantly easier and cheaper to replicate what they've built over time. That's not the case for most startups: it's not really any easier to build an Uber clone today than it was ten years ago.

OpenAI depends on spending vast amounts of money to stay a year or two ahead of the competition. I'm doubting whether that's a justified tradeoff.
I've used Passport SAML for Node - https://github.com/node-saml/passport-saml
Hi! We might open source it at some point, although the app itself is just a thin client, and most of the code is on the battery and the backend
My impression is the training data for foundation models isn't that large. It won't fit on your laptop drive, but it will fit comfortably in a few racks of high-density SSDs.
Under British law, however, courts presume that a computer system is working flawlessly unless proven otherwise, so if computer says guilty it'll be tough to convince a jury that you're not.

And that was made even harder by the massive and continuous perjury by the Post Office when it came to the robustness of the system
>Annual checkups are a weight check, blood pressure, a few questions, maybe a blood panel if you're lucky

This isn't my experience. Every time I've gone in for an annual check, the doctor has either suggested that I get or asked if I would like a blood panel. Maybe you should try another doctor.
So it's made up?
I mean yes, but so what? It wasn't anything, it was this.

>Doors at the end of the day are a control transfer primitive. In a very real sense the calling thread is simply transferred to the callee's address space and continues execution there until a door_return(2) syscall transfers it back into the caller address_space.

Your phrasing is misleading. A door is a scheduler operation. What would it even mean for a thread to go from a caller to a callee? They are different processes with completely different contexts on the system. Different owners, different address spaces, etc. What the door is doing is passing time on a CPU core from the calling thread to the receiving thread and back.

I skimmed the paper. It's pretty ambitious IMO.

They took a bunch of people (two sets of n=20) and did some tests on them, by the sounds of it, the task was to do something that sounds to me like a math or IQ test. People were tested individually and in groups.

They then made little groups of three where the manager tries to coordinate who does what in terms of the tasks, and then they give the group a score.

All these numbers are then correlated with some indicators, eg age, ethnicity, social skill score, and so on.

I guess the big issue here is whether the lab task is representative of a real-world project. The big one for me is that in the real world, you don't often have an objective measure of success, and whatever you do have is not going to be independent of the environment that you're operating in. Sometimes you get to grade your own effort, other times you get graded by some fool who gets it wrong. The team changes over time. Goals change over time.
And with the increasing parameter size, the main winner will be Nvidia.

Frankly I just don't understand the economics of training a foundation model. I'd rather own an airline. At least I can get a few years out of the capital investment of a plane.
> Everyone knows that big developments bring crime, traffic/more cars, environmental concerns, burdens on the school system, etc.

In fact, denser development, when done right, reduces traffic and makes public transit more viable.

Alternative: allow mixed zoning everywhere, so that small business have the chance to be close to residents instead of being forced to compete with big boxes.

Also, slash parking requirements. They are mostly made up with no basis on anything, most numbers are just vibes.
It's a dumb name and I've already wasted a considerable amount of time looking for an explanation but to no avail. Sounds like something a group of seven year old boys would come up with because it sounded cool.
Countably infinite doesn’t mean you can count to any particular element in finite time; such a definition would depend on an ordering which cardinality (and, in particular, countability) shouldn’t.

For example, uncountable sets can exhibit the property you mention: you count to x via the (very) finite sequence {x} for any element x of the set of real numbers.

Conversely, countable sets (even if you restrict such enumerations to a certain ordering) don’t in general have this property: ordering the integers by [x < y iff x < y (mod 2) or x < y if x = y (mod 2)] (that is, taking two isomorphic copies of the integers, identified with the even and odd integers respectively, juxtaposed side by side), the sequence {0,2,4,6, …} fails to arrive at 1 no matter how far you count along. So there’s an element we can’t count to in ‘finite time’.

The property you seem to be alluding to, that ‘the set admits a total order such that every element can be reached in finitely many steps starting at the first element’ actually corresponds to the order type of the natural numbers — often called ω. It’s countable, but there are many, many (in fact, uncountably many) more sets with this cardinality that don’t have that property.

The proper definition of ‘countably infinite’ is simply that the set can be placed in bijection with the natural numbers. This has nothing (directly) to do with ordering.
How does their API pricing compare to 4o and 3.5 Sonnet?
While I agree with your platform point, I think you still need to address OP's question of

> What is their route in profitability when Meta is giving away similar tech for free?
This is exactly the misconception the other person I replied to had.
Why is this a link to a tweet by a guy whose entire public persona is "AI bad! AI bad! AI bad!" rather than the actual article?
IANAL but as far as I understand the current legal status (in the US) a change in robots.txt or terms and conditions is not binding for web scrapers since the data is publicly accessible. Neither does displaying a banner "By using this site you accept our terms and conditions" change anything about that. The only thing that can make these kinds of terms binding is if the data is only accessible after proactively accepting terms. For instance by restricting the website until one has created an account. Linkedin lost a case against a startup scraping and indexing their data because of that a few years ago.

OIDC is way easier in my experience.
It’s these kind of praise that makes me wonder if they are all paid to give glowing reviews, this is not my experience with sonnet at all. It absolutely does not blow away gpt4o.
the app is just if you need to go deeper but you can definitely use the battery without the app

Bing provides far fewer verbatim results for pretty much all search queries that I've tested.

And Yandex isn't much better for non cyrillic search, Baidu is only for the Chinese web effectively.

And all other search engines either don't even attempt to do full web crawls anymore and/or buy from one of the four above.

So realistically there's just one search engine for the full web that actually does the work.

Zoos' New Dilemma: Gorillas and Screen Time
These threads always surprise me. I'm a director of software engineering in a medium sized company (~3k employees) not located in a big metro but with plenty of people working from competitive areas (I am in the Seattle area myself). My base is a bit over $200k with a 20% bonus and some stock options. I know I'm on the higher end compared to my peers, and I know what my direct and indirect reports make. My wife works for a huge aerospace company as a senior manager and makes about the same as I do. I have a bunch of other people I know what they make, including a very senior engineer at a FAANG company who with 600k this year (everything included) is the highest compensated person I know personally. It's amazing how people throw around 500K like it's nothing. I'm either doing things very wrong/ am clueless or there's some weird bias for crazily over-compensated people in threads here.
let me say in fewer words:

>There is nothing to suggest that 1..100 understands math.

That's like, your opinion man. I'd like it.
I was (more) of a Solaris/x86 kernel guy on that particular level and know the x86 kernel did not use task gates for doors (or any context switching other than the double fault handler). Linux did taskswitch via task gates on x86 till 2.0, IIRC. But then, hw assist or no, x86 task gates "aren't that fast".

The SPARC context switch code, to me, always was very complex. The hardware had so much "sharing" (the register window set could split to multiple owners, so would the TSB/TLB, and the "MMU" was elaborate software in sparcv9 amyway). SPARC's achilles heel always were the "spills" - needless register window (and other cpu state) to/from memory. I'm kinda still curious from a "historical" point of view - thanks!

Sorry for the testimonies they look bad but they are true! We’ve been mostly working with our B2B clients for the past two years but we have had B2C customers on our first prototype and requested their comments!

This is comparable to France, Germany, and Switzerland, which spend ~12%, and less than the USA at 16% of GDP.

Things get a little more interesting when you take the overall GDP of each country into account:

Switzerland: 106K, ~$12K per capita

USA: 85k, ~$13.5k per capita

Which e-mail server software are you using?
With coding it takes time for teams to sync. Let alone being brought up to speed on an already worked on codebase. Without what basically amounts to as handholding the process becomes more drawn out.

Managers who don't realize you have to basically baby new hires until they are up to speed probably won't be very effective.
It’s also becoming clear that the tech isn’t really ready for primetime. It hallucinates too much. Categories like image generation have also not been able to improve beyond slop

You essentially can’t use it anything mission critical or production ready
I've given hyprland two tries. The first time it was exceptionally laggy and crashed all the time. The second time (earlier this year) hyprland was performing better, but it still had enormous CPU power draw, lagged with disabled animations, for whatever reason had terrible font anti-aliasing (with the same font-config settings as sway). Maybe a full rewrite to this new stack will help, but I doubt it.
Join YC's Ruby Meetup on August 13th at Our New SF Headquarters
YC is co-hosting a Ruby Meetup on August 13th to bring together fellow rubyists! We’ll have tech talks from YC founders sharing their novel uses of Ruby in the wild — and how it’s not the Ruby you tried 10+ years ago.

Speakers so far:

- Jared Friedman (YC Group Partner & Scribd, S06) will give an opening talk about the history of software at YC: how we chose Rails, who wrote the first MR to our codebase, why Bookface is a YC founder’s secret weapon, and how Rails powers all of YC.

- Daniel Farina (Ubicloud, W24) has been building infrastructure control planes in Ruby for 13 years - first at Heroku and now at Ubicloud. Daniel will share some war stories, as well as his five favorite “features” that make Ruby particularly powerful for building infrastructure code.

- Kelsey Pedersen (Capsule, S22) built Capsule on a V1 vector database with Rails, Postgres and Active Record with the PGVector plugin. She’s happy to share learnings at pitfalls, as well as how she uses webhooks and rakes to automate workflows and help keep the team small.

- Keith Schacht (Mystery.org, S17) started coding Ruby in ‘05, and is still at it — building ChatGPT in Rails (vs Python) and keeping up with stimulus, new morphing, and Turbo Native. He’ll do some live coding of these new features, and wants to hear what you think!

We'll be providing dinner & refreshments for attendees, and there will be ample opportunity to meet with speakers, folks from YC and network as well.

Also note: many YC companies are hiring for ruby engineers — including Y Combinator’s Software Team. Ask us about open roles!

If you’re interested, please RSVP below to join us -- we have limited capacity, but we'll try to get as many Rubyistas in the room as possible.

https://events.ycombinator.com/yc-ruby-meetup

Let me know if you have questions, and hope to see you at our new SF office!
>You seem to not know anyone who was an unwanted child born because of some secondary motivation

Don't you think there's a difference between suggesting that someone start a family (and itemizing benefits of that life path), and FORCING someone to start a family? If OP does not want a family, they don't have to have a family. Geez.
Yes, there's a few things wrong:
1. If it assumes typescript, it should do `as const` in the first msg
2. If it is python, it should be something like https://x.com/WesleyYue/status/1816157147413278811 which is what I wanted but I didn't want to bother with the typing.
A side note about the ever increasing costs to advance the models.
I feel certain that some branch of what may be connected to the NSA
is running and advancing models that probably exceed what the open
market provides today.

Maybe they are running it on proprietary or semi proprietary hardware
but if they dont, how much does the market no where various shipments
of NVIDEA processors ends up?

I imagine most intelligence agencies are in need of vast quantities.

I presume is M$ announces new availability of AI compute it means they
have received and put into production X Nvidiam, which might make it
possible to guesstimate within some bounds how many.

Same with other open market compute facilities.

Is it likely that a significant share of NVIDEA processors are going
to government / intelligent / fronts?
I sure hope this is a graduate-level course.
Maybe a Happy Meal.
> I think the problem is that you were raised to think that a "good and just" world is one where there is no risk, no variability, and limited self-reliance.

I think that children are generally raised to not believe there is "risk" associated with listening to experts. This means specialists like Doctors but also politicians and military officials.

The idea that there could be a grift set up to take advantage of people in the medical space, for instance, which is highly regulated and supposed to be for the benefit of people first and for generating capital second, is not intuitive to children.

In fact a wide array of industries and services in the United States, and the world (to not be political, as some commenter said) are set up to take advantage of children or naive young adults.

Secondary education and student loans is a glaring example of this.

> The default state is for none of these services and protections to exist whatsoever

In all of human history this is mostly untrue. Humans have always formed societies, and those societies have always provided services for their people. In fact, before capitalism, most of these services were provided in-kind as a right of being a part of the tribe.

This idea that every person is born as an individual and nothing is granted to them belongs to a certain political ideology that is designed to make sure people feel entitled to nothing, and keep things in the private industry, and keep government small. But I digress.

Of course someone has to provide the service, and collect the materials for the service. And that person deserves to be compensated for that work. But the idea that the default state of a human is to be alone with nature and subject to pure individualism is simply not true, and never has been the norm, until that idea was used to justify not providing people with anything.

> Everything beyond nothing is an imperfect and unstable solution held together with duct-tape

This idea is also untrue. We've had a lot of time to perfect these things. If we can build skyscrapers and infrastructure to maintain them, we can provide these services. You are conflating political ideology and economic motivation with literal ability. The ability is absolutely there, and was in the past as well. There is something different going on that causes these systems to be "held together with duct-tape" and it's actually other humans actively trying to destroy these systems, not that they are impossible.
The app is not needed at all! The battery works perfectly fine without it don’t worry!

It’s just used if you want to have extra features like safety alerts
Tangential.

i have too much pride, introversion and embarrassment to 'suck up'. This has greatly hindered my career ( and my earnings). I know what the sucking up process is and how to execute it but have psychological block actually doing it.

Any advice from ppl who've dealt with this?
To be fair, you need 2x 4090 to match the VRAM capacity of an RTX 6000 Ada. There is also the rest of the system you need to factor into the cost. When running 10-16x 4090s, you may also need to upgrade your electrical wiring to support that load, you may need to spend more on air conditioning, etc.

I'm not necessarily saying that it's obviously better in terms of total cost, just that there are more factors to consider in a system of this size.

If inference is the only thing that is important to someone building this system, then used 3090s in x8 or even x4 bifurcation is probably the way to go. Things become more complicated if you want to add the ability to train/do other ML stuff, as you will really want to try to hit PCIE 4.0 x16 on every single card.
As someone who works in an office alongside Japanese illustrators and graphic designers, I would like to know where the manga-style training data came from, and what is being done to ensure that the artists are fairly compensated?
You'd think so, but 3.5-turbo was multilingual from the get go and benefitted massively from it. If you want to position yourself as a global leader, then excluding 95% of the world who aren't English native speakers seems like a bad idea.
Yes it’s authenticated, and no you cannot make random changes to a battery!
Give it problems most/all humans can't solve on their own, but that are easy to verify.

Math problems being one of them, if only LLMs were good at pure math.
Another possibility is graph problems. Haven't tested this much though.
