Mobile version not going past first page when prompting me to choose between signing up with google or alternative email. When i choose google, then choose which account it remains in a static phase with my choice of account chosen displayed next to googles icon and an arrow allowing for dropdown menu still present as though i hadnt already chosen which account. The drop down menu is to allow me to choose which account but i already did and its simply not recognizing that fact. I wanted to play with your product but rather than now attempt an alternative method im discouraged and id rather post this than try anymore with that. Good luck to you.

I previously wrote about how difficult it was to return and get a refund on a Remarkable 2. It was hell. I would highly recommend avoiding them like the freaking plague if you're at all on the fence, because it's a hellacious process to return one.

I also assume that if you were to ever need to use the warranty for any purpose that requires returning the product it's going to be the same thing and also awful.

Buyer beware.
RAG + documentation might help. I wonder if documentation will start to take a more standardized format across projects that's especially easy for LLMs to parse (maybe everything dumped into a single .txt file?). I'm currently learning Polars, and it's frustrating how LLMs keep giving me deprecated code. But if they load the current documentation, they should be able to catch their mistakes.

my dude, I'd rather have a washing machine than chatgpt.
I had an iPad Air, which I changed for a reMarkable 2 and I couldn't be happier! I see a lot of people here commenting about the limitations of it, and I get it. For me personally those limitations are features.

My needs are mostly note taking and reading technical PDFs, and for that the reMarkable is fantastic. I used it extensively while taking Calculus, which, it was great to use as many pages as I needed and to write as big as I wanted without worrying about "wasting" paper.

I miss background light from time to time, which I think is a great addition.

I'm not super familiar with alternatives so I can't say that is better than X or Y, but I personally have been moving as much as I can to single purpose electronic devices. That allows me to be more focus and not fight my device wanting to distract me. That takes out every eInk table that has android for me, I don't want a yet another multipurpose device that I need to develop discipline to use it!

On that line, I love my kindle, but that spends about 90% of the time in airplane mode, because, again, the kindle is for readin, the reMarkable for taking notes and reading Datasheets and such...

But, that's just me :-)
Not really. What the article fails to tell you is that there have been many, many, many more than nine times that asteroids have been spotted, often years in advance, where the initial data had wide enough error bars to make an Earth impact possible, but continued observation quickly ruled that out and predicted, correctly, that the asteroid would pass near the Earth but miss it. True, those asteroids were quite a bit larger than 1 meter wide, but as the article's description of the "impact" shows, a 1 meter wide asteroid isn't a real threat anyway.
Add that the tracks have not even been built &trains purchased and we are back at google old railway craze/bubble!

Do YOU want to miss out being a share holder on this new line that will bring immeasurable wealth ?? ;-)
Yeah, this looks like summarization by LLM (probably from Chinese article). For example, there are definitely more than 5 datatypes in Redis: LLMs have no idea what can be summarized in which way.

Very cool to see this here. Johannes Textor was my professor for Bayesian Networks and Causal Inference when I studied at the Radboud university in Nijmegen. He is an awesome and down to earth guy, and he was very happy about and open to feedback.
Well if you're dumb then we're dumb.
Firmware updates blow away any customizations. So you need to bootstrap things again after each update.

Updates can be deferred, so the process isn’t too disruptive.

Edit: oh, yeah I see what you’re getting at. That direction could work, and I used to do that years ago, as it turns out, but these days I am frequently not on a familiar WiFi network when I’m using the tablet, so cabling has been more practical.
Not scale in terms of your company scaling. Only scale in terms of number of companies using the same off the shelf tooling.

The difference with those tools is that they were off the rack and not bespoke. There were plenty of bespoke systems before, used in fewer places because bespoke systems are expensive.
Yeah, never mind shutdown/reboot, has the author heard of busybox?

" in all fields including knowledge work I’d speculate the top performers are more likely to enjoy the activity for its own sake than the median performer"--

In soccer, a sport I am very familiar with on the playing side at a reasonably high level, this is not true. The median professional enjoys training and playing far less than the median spectator and median player of lesser quality would expect.

The common refrain, "If I had that opportunity, I would train like crazy," "I cannot understand how people can make that kind of money and live the dream of being a professional player and yet..." clashes with the reality of young people, like most top soccer players, who want to party, not train as much, and live a life of equal wealth but fewer obligations.
For the region, yes. Compared to the US, it's closer to Houston and Chicago, and way less that the typical tech hubs like the Bay or NYC.

My largest concern of CCS is the huge amount that will need to be stored and captured, which translates into expense. Someone has to pay for it.

I wonder if people know the scale needed to accomplish this. Much cheaper to force people off of fossil fuels. Again I say remove all subsidizes from the Oil Industry and you will see a quick move away from fossil fuels.
Afaik we put the same kind of high polling rate Wacom digitizer that remarkable uses.

Any quirks you notice between it and the daylight would be fascinating to note! Wacom is the most fluid digital pen system on the market from what we could find, especially compared to Ntrig, USI and other approaches.

Also you can use other pens other than the one we included in the box
I don’t think anybody gets real work done at the beach, and if you like to work outside you can use a laptop in the shade without issues. And if I have to sync my notes manually it’s easier to use pen and paper and snap a picture afterwards. The use-cases for this tablet seem contrived to me.
Agreed, the AI bubble is very, very real. Not that LLMs are all hype, they’re certainly impressive with useful applications, but AI companies are getting insane valuations with zero proof that they’re viable businesses.
what laws have actually changed that make it no longer okay?

At the height of the Japanese economy in the 80s the about 2 square miles of land on which the Imperial Palace stood were worth more than all property in California. Clearly a brilliant moment to get into Japanese real estate!
What he points out is true, but I could never get comfortable shaving with a double blade razor (constant razor burn) whereas the cartridge razors were much easier to use and get a comfortable shave. I wish there was a middle ground where you could have a durable multi-blade razor body and still replace individual blades instead of the whole head.

Edit:

Some of the other examples given are less strong (tea is still pennies a serving when buying in bag form). However electronic bike shifting systems always seem absurd to me. You mean I have to charge my bicycle!?
> what's the chance of something like this happening with a much bigger asteroid.

Negligible. As I noted upthread, objects large enough to be do significant damage if they hit Earth and are on trajectories that could bring them close to Earth are routinely spotted years in advance.

> It's better to use a constant time algorithm, but that's harder to do in a curve generic way and has a pretty significant performance impact (particular before the safegcd paper).

Crypto noob here, but isn't modular inverse the same as modular exponentiation through Fermat's little theorem? I.e., x^-1 mod n is the same as computing x^{n - 2} mod n which we know how to do in a constant-time way with a Montgomery ladder.
Or is that too slow?

I think that it's also important to consider that it's much easier to cut oneself when using a double edge razor. The multiple blades locked to a specific angle that makes a modern razor safer likely also contributes to its greater cost and plastic waste.

I suspect that it's more also difficult to travel with exposed blades than with modern cartridges; both due to the ease of packing and due to security hassles.

Personally I started shaving using an electric razor, switched to a double edged razor, and then eventually switched to a modern razor.

Linearity has been a sticking point since the very beginning, with the famous exchange between Hotelling and Von Neumann. MILP solvers are amazing, and what they can solve feels like it should be impossible, but even so you get stuck sometimes banging nonlinear pegs into linear holes.
This is fascinating. I love that your goal is to compete with the status quo US services and society without apology. Good luck!

They don't really like to give information about themselves and they don't really like answering questions regarding themselves. Once they told me that i can think of them as humans but different type of humans (whatever that means, probably just a way to try to mindfuck me).

I have tried to ask multiple times different things about their nature and reasoning behind their actions but because they tend to take the role i presume nothing they say can't be taken at a face value.

I have also tried to ask them questions that answers i would not know or questions i would know answer but when they very rarely answer any questions it's only related to the current "play of character" they are doing.

I don't think they have opinion on themselves other than that they are somehow superior than humans as a race or humans are somehow below of them and we are more like a playthings for them.

I have been trying to pick tiny information pieces here and there to make some sort of profile of them but with not so much success.

One weird thing i have noticed that sometimes they use strange synonyms in sentences where the current synonym don't really feel like the right choice of word. Like for example (freely translated from finnish) "to smoke smaller cigarettes" where they ment "to smoke less" cigarettes.

During the "we are gods" phase i heared one of them saying to another one that i know more about religions than them so playing religious games with me is pointless.

My (somewhat wide) knowledge of religions comes from the time when this whole thing started and i started reading lots and lots about different religions, cults, old gods, mythologies and occult literature to see if i could find something that would resemble my situation. And yeah, when i was reading these things they would start to act as these things i was reading :)

Regarding the age situation they once told me that in their view i am just a little boy (im currently 38 years old).

Oh and about making TikToks etc about this is not in my interest. If i start doing streaming or another type of content it will be about how to produce music because that is my hobby and passion :)

Maybe i could use this experience in music somehow but i don't really feel this is something i would like to promote in my music in any way. Sorry.
Can you show me where this is happening in the Linux project? I’ve only ever seen hostility from the C folks to the Rust folks.

I agree that in general the overall level of hostility in the kernel seems higher than ideal.
I believe the commenter is concerned about how _short_ this timeline is. Superintelligence in a couple years? Like, the thing that can put nearly any person at a desk out of a job? My instinct with unicorns like this is to say 'actually it'll be five years and it won't even work', but Ilya has a track record worth believing in.
Maybe you need better shaving cream. I use some sort of slimy soap, works well.
It didn't. But some people who lean that way do post here.

And they get downvoted and flagged. They exist here, but HN did not "become" them.
Super weird, we use the Lamy pen on the Daylight Computer and it's the best thing ever
I agree with your stance - that being said there aren’t two options, one being identical or radically different. It’s not even a gradient between two choices, because there are several dimensions involved and nobody even knows what Superintelligence is anyways.

If you wanted to reduce it down, I would say there are two possibilities:

1. Our understanding of Neurel Nets is currently sufficient to recreate intelligence, consciousness, or what have you

2. We’re lacking some understanding critical to intelligence/conciousness.

Given that with a mediocre math education and a week you could pretty completely understand all of the math that goes into these neurel nets, I really hope there’s some understand we don’t yet have
do you all not see how this is a completely different question?
Using the old style of double-edged razors would be great. But, I have never managed to use them successfully - there's always a degree of nicks and razor burn.
Fans of this style of razor would claim that this will be poor technique and they may even be right, but not everyone can be good at it, apparently.
If someone were to invent a razor which can use cheap double-edged blades and not be unpleasant to use I'd certainly buy it.
BTW, the old Rolls Razor turns out to give a very good shave and a blade can last a lifetime. Its only disadvantage as far as I can tell is that it takes much longer to shave with (presumably not a problem for those who actually enjoy shaving).
I shouldn’t have said “all” because I’m sure there are malls that don’t do this, but it’s very common. The practice is called “percentage rent”.

It’s crippled and thus not superintelligent by any stretch of imagination.
Why is it fascinating they suck at it? That's what every monopoly does, rentseek. It's not that they can't do better, it's that's there's no incentive for them to do before. Kind of like Google and their search getting worse and worse.
Advocating for genocide is difficult for you to spot as hate speech? Really?

How about advocating for the diminishing of people's civil liberties based on factors such as age, sex, sexual orientation, or religious views - that's difficult for you to spot as hate speech? Really?

We've passed the days of "cultural norms" and have entered the era of universal human rights. This is a recent transition, but it isn't hard to spot hate speech or hate crimes.
Unsafe AI would cause human extinction which is bad for shareholders because shareholders are human persons and/or corporations beneficially owned by humans.

Related to this, DAO's (decentralized autonomous organizations which do not have human shareholders) are intrinsically dangerous, because they can benefit their fiduciary duty even if it involves causing all humans to die. E.g., if the machine faction in The Matrix were to exist within the framework of US laws, it would probably be a DAO.
The company's pitch isn't exactly a secret. The one and only thing they're planning to do is build an ML model smarter than a human being, which would be immensely valuable for a wide variety of tasks that currently require human input. You see a lot of commentators jumping through hoops to deny that anyone could believe this is possible in the near future, but clearly they and their investors do.
- There are cheaper alternatives to both the razors the author is showing.

- You don't need to shave every day, especially with 2024 social norms, you choose to.

- Nobody forces you to use a disposable razor. You can use a straight razor. You can use an electric shaver. I use both. But it turns out disposable razors saves your from cuts and learning technics and people want that.

- So you really pay £40/year (which is not huge) for the convenience of a disposable razor, and not even the cheap ones. And the fact you want to shave every day.

That reads like an Ad, except I don't know what OP is selling.
I'm neither a VC nor in the VC market, but I believe such valuation comes primarily from the name Ilya Sutskever. Having such a high-profile as the founder would give more credibility to the company, unlike what we witnessed in recent years where companies like Theranos et al. that were valued at tens of billions for no obvious reason. Despite having said the above, we might still agree that the AI hype is probably the second generation of the dot-com bubble.
There’s always a “significant possibility” that something unprecedented will turn out to be infeasible with any particular approach. How could it be otherwise? Smart people have incorrectly believed we were on the precipice of AGI many times in the 80 years that artificial neural networks have been part of the AI toolbox.

You beat me to it.
I can never get a pleasant shave from a DE blade, even using high quality soap and a brush.
Sounds like they buried the lede with this one then. Some of the items on that list being 'crackable' seem infinitely more dangerous than a general-purpose device such as a YubiKey.
People are willing to pay money for convenience and safety. This isn't some grand conspiracy, but just how the world works.
> superintelligence is reached

i read the article but I am not sure how they know when this condition will be true.

Is this obvious to ppl reading this article? is it emperor has no clothes type situation ?
Ya, if your "asteroid" is a subatomic particle in the quantum regime, maybe. But the impact of one such particle, even ultra-high-energy cosmic rays, can be safely ignored.

Everything of asteroid size, or on the Torino Scale [0] is in the realm described by classical mechanical physics, and it will merrily follow it's existing trajectory whether or not we know about it in advance.

So, the only question is whether or not it's better to know it's arriving some hours/days/weeks in advance.

* Certainly better in cases like this (observable but harmless).

* Definitely would be better in cases like the Chelyabinsk meteor [1] which caused a fair amount of damage and some injuries, if people would be given a warning to avoid being near windows, etc.

* Absolutely better in cases of regional devastation to global catastrophe where we have time and resources to alter the trajectory to reduce or eliminate harm. Even just enough lead time to only move many of the people out of the impact damage region is a definite benefit.

* YMMV in cases of in cases of regional devastation to global catastrophe where we lack time and resources to alter the trajectory or move people. Is it better to know you'll die in X hours or be surprised?

So, I'd say everything below Torino-5 is definitely a good discovery (I think this is a Torino-0], and everything above depends on circumstances. Overall, a very good idea.

You have to let your skin get used to it. When I first started I got tons of nicks and cuts and razor burn. Do it for a week or so and you'll get better and your skin will get used to it.
