I don't think this is true.

The main thing I see Reddit being useful for are discussions about entertainment.

There's probably a subreddit for your favorite sports team, twitch steamer, TV show, book series video game, politics (which is entertainment for some people).

Reddit has seriously degraded the experience of a lot of these communities with things like restricting custom CSS.

It seems to me that the way you'd disrupt Reddit as a startup is to pick a vertical and laser focus on becoming the best discussion board for that community. If it's sports than have integrations for live stats, scores, etc.

In general you could attract users by offering profit sharing on ads the same way Youtube does for creators.

Have the best moderation tools in the world, a constant painpoint with Reddit. Give admins more flexibility over the appearance of the board, all things Reddit took away.

The other path for disruption would be if an established company with those communities tackled the problem. Lots of communities already us Discord, but they tend to also have a subreddit because chat and forums are different communication methods. Discord could easily offer a forum product as an extension of their chat services. If they do it well they'd drive a lot of users away from the subreddits.
kids learn, walking talking reading arithmetic and physics, by doing things in the physical world. Adults may speak differently to kids than adults, but it's a stretch to say it's synthetic. Equivalent to synthetic would be a group of kids that just grew up together and made up a novel language.
Aside from a few early VAX models, I am pretty sure the Sun 3 machines are the oldest computers that can still run a full contemporary software stack (if you're patient).
Does it sit behind a clean IP? Had any problems sending to gmail or other big providers?
That rule of thumb tends to break down at high salaries. Most of those costs don't scale with salary (like desk space, insurance costs, 401k match which is usually capped, etc).
the equivalent here would be a child learning from a textbook he has written himself.

not sure how effective that would be, if it was his only source of learning.

Are you sure the chat history is being passed when the second message is sent? That looks like the kind of response you'd expect if it only received the prompt "in python" with no chat history at all.

I'm not responsible for what anyone else's goals. And I have never seen anyone advocate for making suburban houses illegal. I just want it to stop being literally illegal for people to use the land they own in safe and reasonable ways.
You already get salary though. They can't just keep adding contracts and terms and say it's covered by previous payments.
Just me coding 30% faster is worth it
This is our launch page in preparation for a Kickstarter in September

The difference with most Kickstarters is that we have ALREADY built the product, so it’s totally de-risked

We are using a kickstarter because we are a small startup and we don’t have the funds to buy the materials to build the batteries in advance, so the economics of the kickstarter (people pay us upfront) makes it possible for us to build a large batch at a lower cost!

Feel free to ask us any additional questions you might have at contact@gouach.com
For me `dash` compiles in just a few seconds. If you link to a 1-line problem (here, #define VTABSIZE 39), then why not boost that to 79 or 113, say, re-compile the shell and re-run your benchmark? Might lead to a change in upstream that could benefit everyone.

Author here, NixOS is not for the faint of heart, not even on a server. With that said, if you understand it well, it is much easier in my opinion. It's a lot like typed languages, harder to get stuff done, but much more solid after the fact.

What are the arguments for embedded vector DBs being suboptimal in RAG, out of curiosity?
This is quite good, so as a fellow frontend person I'll give some deeper notes, including accessibility.

1. There is perceptible lag when sorting.

2. Sortable headers are interactive yet are `div` elements: they can't be focused or used by screen readers. Instead, change them to `<button type="button>` elements and ensure `:focus` styles look OK.

3. When the table's sorted, consider applying an `aria-sort` attribute to the `th`. This informs a screen reader what order things are in.

4. As a sibling mentioned, consider text-aligning numbers to the right. It makes visual comparison of numbers with differing digit counts easier (with a similar aim, some pair this with, `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums`)

5. On my small phone, the two stickied columns take up 50% of the screen. May not be worth the squeeze (perhaps just sticky the rank at tiny viewports?).

6. Also on my small phone, the horizontal shadows occlude all the content, making it hard to read.

7. I don't personally love the "click to select a row" feature. I double click to select text as I read it, or to copy, and that distractingly toggles the color on and off. Perhaps this makes more sense when there are actions that can be performed on a selected row?

8. Speaking of, clicking the rank cells do not select the row.

For an example on the a11y work, I'd recommend checking out WAI-ARIA's Sortable Table: https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/table/examples/sort...

These are pretty small asides; kudos overall.
It would probably be much cheaper to buy a Framework without RAM and then install 96GB yourself anyway, even if they did offer a 96GB option. It looks like they charge roughly the same amount for 2x32GB as it costs to buy 2x48GB DDR5 SODIMMs at retail.
From cases against OpenAI, where ChatGPT was banned in Italy, and then a data audit was opened in Greece. What I have learned is that, OpenAI is a big liability for Microsoft, which is their major funder, after my case Microsoft now claims only a 'Minority Economic Interest.' However, if the data audit reveals deeper involvement, fines could escalate into the billions for any company investing in OpenAI. This risk along with a large fine may deter future investments in OpenAI, potentially leading to financial troubles.
Is what you're saying relevant in the Crowdstrike case? If you don't want Crowdstrike and you're an admin, I assume there are instructions that allow you to uninstall it. I assume the tamper-resistant features of Crowdstrike won't prevent you from uninstalling it.
If you want to do that you can already knock yourself out with a custom DNS. Browsers must be neutral.

From the article:

> .top was the most common suffix in phishing websites over the past year, second only to domains ending in “.com.”

Does that mean you want to block .com domains?
The best way to “bake in” a set of biases into widely available AIs, is to make it prohibitively expensive for alternatives (without those biases) to be trained.

Unbiased AI is, I believe, an existential threat to the “powers that be” retaining control of the narrative, and must be avoided at all costs.
Distributing $10 gift cards is so obviously wrong I can't even comprehend how it was approved.

I wonder how much money in total they represent, and if CrowdStrike would have come out better saying "We've immediately allocated $X amount of funds to making sure this issue won't happen again" instead of dividing in x * $10 uber eats insults.
I don't know what the hell you're talking about. Your argument is incoherent. If you wanted to allocate the money according to the individual's utility of money, then a rule of thumb of $1 is going to be wrong. You should, given no information, assume that both have the same utility of money and that the utility of money is diminishing, favouring an even split.
Large 2 is significantly smaller at 123B so it being comparable to llama 3 405B would be crazy.

> that my car has lost 6 gallons of fuel already and may run out in a matter of hours?

Are you driving in a large desert where it is known that there are fewer gas stations on the average?

Current economic conditions do not look good for anyone raising capital today. Maybe things are fine a year from now but this ain't the 2010s anymore.

OpenAI has enough name brand recognition that they're probably fine (maybe they get a loan at a % higher than healthy, but that's survivable). But there's clearly risks in running out of cash this year.

John Mayall brought to the world the Eric Clapton we know today. Their 1966 album "Blues Breakers With Eric Clapton" changed everything in rock music. That is when the highly cranked Marshall guitar amplifier and the Gibson Les Paul (brought out of retirement) came to life and became the icons they're known for today.

RIP John Mayall. You, your protégés, their protégés, and those they've all influenced, have brought us a lot of great music!
This is a good idea, but it needs more use-cases. Besides helping to write or summarise emails, which is more convenient to do via an email client plugin, the only novel feature it offers is sending reminders.

I want more! For example:

1. Managing my calendar and acting as a human PA, helping to negotiate meeting dates and possibly locations with several participants.
2. Taking over email threads (e.g. with customer support), answering on my behalf as much as it can, but escalating to me (a human) if needed.
3. FAQ mode – if I often receive emails with common queries and have to answer them repeatedly (e.g. invitations to give talks), it could handle those responses for me.

etc.

That's definitely a reasonable point of view.

There's another point of view though that says that the aviation system is particularly fragile, and of course it has a history of being used for acts of extreme violence.

So there's a compelling state interest question here. Like I think people definitely DO and SHOULD have the right to be secure in their own homes, in their personal papers, and to be free from surveillance of their personal life.

I'm extremely amenable to the idea that you should be able to "exercise your rights, for any reason you please and without having to explain yourself" in that regard.

I think it's also clear that the rights one has are going to be circumscribed when participating in the aviation system.

So it's more a matter of degree than principle.
There also can and should be mechanical checks on libraries, to reduce the number of things that need heavy ongoing human review.

E.g. if a library provides a pure function, does it matter if the owner changes? It's still pure. If it becomes not-pure, yes that's immediately concerning, but in the meantime its ability to do anything nefarious is infinitely smaller than most current module systems allow, and your review-budgets should probably be spent elsewhere.

Oh and regarding probabilistic stuff, I have been playing with PyMC, it seems eminently usable. There is some slightly more specialized software like Stan, and it is certainly worth looking at some Stan tutorials if you don't know anything about probabilistic programming, but PyMC is hackable and modular in a way that Stan is not. There is also tensorflow-probability but I couldn't get it to work, it seems not as active as PyMC. Haven't read it but I found https://github.com/CamDavidsonPilon/Probabilistic-Programmin... and that's probably going to be my coffee table reading for the next few days.
My uneducated guess is that with many layers you can implement something akin to graph in brain by nulling lots of previous later outputs. I actually suspect that current models aren’t optimal with layers all of the same size but i know shit
The issue is that the Britain is stagnating, so that percentage of GDP is growing slower than costs.
Yeah and that’s why we call it “standing on the shoulders of giants.” Humans went through tons of trial and error in every facet of life to get where we are today. We kept the stuff that worked and taught it.

But before humans can understand enough language to ingest that synthetic data, they do a lot of their own discovery based training where they learn about the world physically and absorb the language people around them use, kind of like throwing random internet data at an LLM.

It’s been 20 years since LA “won” the Tour. Do I think the sport has advanced much since these guys raced…
https://cycling-passion.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/marco...

Absolutely, I do. The bikes are more aero. The position on the bikes is different - Pog rarely gets out of the saddle on climbs, where LA and Pantani were often slogging out of the saddle. The training plans and nutrition are absolutely superior.

Does any of this mean Pog or Jonas are clean? No. We don’t know either way. All I do know is the anti-doping program is one of the strictest in sports. If people still dope, there’s not much we can do about it. Regardless, I‘ll continue to enjoy cycling as entertainment - there’s no higher meaning to sports - it’s all for fun.

I wouldn't trust a cybersecurity company that sends out a multi-use code, even if it's for a 3rd party.

While I do understand that this might have been sent by a department far removed from IT, it's still scary that they didn't think of possible abuse.
I've seen it go both ways.

I once worked at a large (> $100B market cap) tech company and had the opposite experience. I had several interactions with C-Suite and the level below and my main takeaway was that "holy cow, they get it!". Now, the layers between me and them were another story. It was amazing to have the experience of my manager talking about our tech/product strategy, and then to hear it from someone several levels higher in the org chart. The explanations from the former typically made little sense, but from the latter it made much, much, more sense.

Honestly if a contract only offers 1$ as compensation for many hours worth of work then that's pretty much admitting the consideration is inadequate.
This goes both ways.

Some people publish fantastic papers without data nor code. Sometimes annoying, other times a complete waste of everyone's time.
Maybe it depends on where you live/how strong their brand presence was. But they completely pulled out of the West Coast at least. I watched them tear down BP signs and put up Arco signs a month after the spill.
People have tested the 96GB DRR5 SODIMM kit and reported it to work with framework AMD laptop (framework lets you pick none for RAM, so you won't be paying RAM you won't use). Also as far as I know no one makes DDR5 SODIMM's with >48GB per stick.

I am, in fact, not an engineer; I trained to be an actuary. (Though, I guess if one squints enough, the operations research electives look like industrial and systems engineering.)

I consider UBI less an engineering exercise with requirements that feed into the engineering method and more one of ratemaking and claim severity against an entire trade system. My only goal is to put a dollar amount on a loss event (and get some quantification of how many loss events occur over time while we're not looking). What anyone does with that is up to them.

Use of the second person was certainly a choice.
ugh, I hate to be this guy, but could you possibly use off-device resources?

There’s a tonne of benefits to that approach, cooling, battery life and performance among them- and the ability to run tasks while your laptop is asleep.

I understand not wanting to own multiple devices, or cope with the power draw of an always on machine- but if you truly need such resources you will end up better off (even in the short term) with a dual system setup.

Module Federation with Next.js in a React Shell: Handling Full Page Reloads
We are tackling an interesting problem involving module federation. Our setup involves embedding a Next.js application within a React shell. However, we’re encountering a significant issue: when using next/link inside the Next.js app, it triggers a full page reload of the entire application rather than a seamless client-side navigation.

Here’s what we’ve tried so far:

• Customizing the <Link> component to prevent reloads
• Leveraging next/router for navigation within the Next.js app

Despite these efforts, we haven’t managed to resolve the issue. We’re considering developing a custom solution to address this, but we’d greatly appreciate any suggestions or insights from the community.

We are specifically interested in:

1. Approaches to prevent full page reloads while using next/link in a module federation setup.
2. Workarounds or alternative strategies to integrate Next.js within a React shell without reloading the entire application.
3. Best practices and known issues related to module federation with Next.js and React.

Any guidance or experiences you can share would be extremely valuable. Thanks for your help!
This doesn't look good for Intel's IDM 2.0
Lots of money and a promotion
So use SAML for that part; education is still a big market and they have a case for delegating the responsibility of establishing and managing trust relationships to a federation provider that most b2b and b2c applications will not have. Fortunately most of these identity systems are happy to proxy for downstream OIDC/OAuth IdCs anyway, so the argument that you may not want to implement SAML IdC in your own application is still valid even in this context.
If the rules are Turing-complete, then sure. I don't see enough in the report to tell one way or another; the way rules are made to sound as if filling templates about equally suggests either (if templates may reference other templates) and there is not a lot more detail. Halting seems relatively easy to manage with something like a watchdog timer, though, compared to a sound, crash- and memory-safe* parser for a whole programming language, especially if that language exists more or less by accident. (Again, no claim; there's not enough available detail.)

I would not want to do any of this directly on metal, where the only safety is what you make for yourself. But that's the line Crowdstrike are in.

* By EDR standards, at least, where "only" one reboot a week forced entirely by memory lost to an unkillable process counts as exceptionally good.
Books, especially textbooks, would be amazing. These things can get pretty huge (1000+ pages) and usually do not fit into GPT-4o or Claude Sonnet 3.5 in my experience. I envision the models being able to help a user (student) create their study guides and quizzes, based on ingesting the entire book. Given the ability to ingest an entire book, I imagine a model could plan how and when to introduce each concept in the textbook better than a model only a part of the textbook.
Quality is relative. A far larger percentage of .com domains are legitimate.
Strange coincidence, moments ago I just received a phishing SMS about some bogus package that couldn't be delivered attempting to get me to visit a link on a ".top" address!
> it's madness to accept a job without having had a discussion with your prospective manager

In a big company, you may change manager frequently. They may not even know who your manager is at the time they hire you. And it may take more than a discussion to know if they're a jerk.
