The new model does play very well but when it draws the board it frequently places the moves in incorrect locations (but seemingly still keeps track of the correct ones). But I can't fault it too much, I don't think what is essentially ASCII art is intended to be a strength of the model.

Edit: Actually third game with it led to it making an illegal move, and claiming a draw (which would've been inevitable given optimal play for the rest of the game but there were several valid moves left to make).

Our diets have gotten worse and we've become even more sedentary.

Why don't we attack that? Because 30+ years of evening news clips showing obese people walking or sitting and handwringing about the obesity crisis have done nothing, and that seems to be the extent of our ability to act.

It's good to have a tool like GLP-1 in the quiver. But we really need to start focusing on childhood weight stats/obesity. School lunches are often disgusting, if offered at all. "Lunch food" served at grocery stores is often more like candy. Whole cohorts of kids enter and leave the public school system with poor diet and nutrition habits that will persist for life, with the high likelihood of corresponding lifelong health problems as well. I feel it is a social and moral imperative for everyone to take a hard look at the future many of these kids will have.

This is not even mentioning the growing sedentariness of many young people's lives. This stat explodes as people enter the workforce. Simply going for a 30min to 1hr walk once a day can give you more exercise than enormous swathes of the population.
Fifty years ago there were like 3-5 TV channels in rural America, no smartphones, and a good bit less automation in rural work. That may have made it more physically involved, and there was a higher proportion of people living rurally vs cities than now too.

In case you weren't aware, pretty much everything in advertising in a render as well. If the car is not moving in a commercial shot from a camera car/drone, it's more than likely 3D rendered. Those close up interior shots or the camera zooming from outside to the interior, yup, those are 3D rendered. A large portion of product shots (like furniture) online are 3D rendered as well. This has been happening for a long time too

The neural engine by design cannot handle all possible kernels, and the GPU is significantly slower for integer math, and cannot do fp64. Then for the iPhone SoCs with 4 or 5 core GPUs, the GPU is a bit slower for fp16 and fp32 too.
Thanks! I started with cljfx and then moved to pure javafx, first because it wasn't straight forward for me to understand the performance overhead of cljfx under different scenarios (when using subscriptions and contexts), and second because I want to drag as few dependencies as possible so they don't conflict with debuggee one's.

Seemed to handle it just fine.

Kinda a waste of a perfectly good LLM if you ask me. I've mostly been using it as a coding assistant today and it's been absolutely great. Nothing too advanced yet, mostly mundane changes that I got bored of having to make myself. Been giving it very detailed and clear instructions, like I would to a Junior developer, and not giving it too many steps at once. Only issue I've run into is that it's fairly slow and that breaks my coding flow.

Ask HN: Does a perfect plan increase the chances of success or a partial plan?
I have a few dozen things saved in drafts with perfect plans, and partially planned things are out there looking for success.

In my honest opinion, a partially planned thing helps you course-correct for survival or growth faster rather than a perfect planned thing where you spent so much time on so many things, and in the end you find out that this whole thing didn't work as planned.

In my experience, start up with a partial plan and make it perfect along the process.

> But out in the greater society, people get all worked up about those other topics

I understand that. Believe me, I can definitely get worked up about Next.js, if you really want to go there...! It is in no way surprising that people interested in people can end up in the same place around topics related to people.

> In my experience, at least...

But the underscore here is that your experience is based on where your interests (perhaps not the perfect word to describe this, but it's what I got) lie. If you have a greater interest in people, you're going to feel more strongly about it. I'm not bothered by it at all.

But, by the same token, what is to say that I don't feel more strongly towards technical controversy than you do?
We know exactly why; the average American dietary caloric intake has increased to three thousand and something, which is more than the average person burns, especially if the person is as sedentary as the average American. More calories eaten + less exercise = more weight gained.

As someone who’s been 150kg and 75kg, fat, fit and everything in between I can guarantee you fat and muscle/bone do not build or atrophy at the same rate, both volumetrically and temporally

Bones and joints are especially slow to adapt (in both directions). Even losing ~0.25kg/w for a year is sufficient to cause my shoulders to frequently sublux if I attempt to raise my arm above shoulder height

And trivially, gaining weight without proper training or too quickly can result in insufficient time for your bones and joints to adapt, placing them under potentially dangerous stress

The time scale the article is talking about does not follow the same trends as recovery from sudden and complete mobility cessation (injury/paralysis)

Resistance training does work at all ages, but the degree to which it is effective varies greatly, and its recommendation is potentially dangerous if applied bluntly to all people
> and all you have to do is call in a credible threat

Doesn't even have to be credible. Working as a paramedic, I saw first hand several SWATings that were the furthest thing from credible:

"I'm standing in front of the house and they have a family lined up and kneeling with their hands on their heads and men in balaclavas standing behind them with guns, upstairs" (the house in question is one story). "What color is the house?" "Brown" (it's actually blue). How do you see people kneeling in the middle of a room upstairs from the street - what, do they have the lights on, and all the curtains and blinds open? And that sounds more like "something I saw on a movie once".
> Because we don't know why.

Really?

It’s Calories In - Calories Out.
Personally, I'm disappointed that there is too much superstitions and assumptions about GC designs going around, which lead to the discussion like this one that treats specialized designs with explicit tradeoffs, which both Go and BEAM are, as universally superior options. Or discussions that don't recognize that GC is in many scenarios an optimization over malloc/free and a significant complexity reduction over explicit management of arenas.

When it comes to Java - it has multiple GC implementations with different tradeoffs and degree of sophistication. I'm not very well versed in their details besides the fact that pretty much all of them are quite liberal with the use of host memory. So the way I approach it is by assuming that at least some of them resemble the GC implementation in .NET, given extensive evidence that under allocation-heavy scenarios they have similar (throughput) performance characteristics.

As for .NET itself, in server scenarios, it uses SRV GC which has per-core heaps (the count is sizing is now dynamically scalable per workload profile, leading to much smaller RAM footprint) and multi-threaded collection, which lends itself to very high throughput and linear scaling with cores even on very large hosts thanks to minimal contention (think 128C 1TiB RAM, stometimes you need to massage it with flags for this, but it's nowhere near the amount of ceremony required by Java).

Both SRV and WKS GC implementations use background collection for Gen2, large and pinned object heaps. Collection of Gen0 and Gen1 is pausing by design as it lends itself for much better throughput and pause times are short enough anyway.

They are short enough that modern .NET versions end up having better p99 latency than Go on multi-core throughput saturated nodes. Given decent enough codebase, you only ever need to worry about GC pause impact once you go into the territory of systems with hard realtime requirements. One of the better practical examples of this that exists in open source is Osu! which must run its game loop 1000hz - only 1ms of budget! This does pose challenges and requires much more hands-on interaction with GC like dynamically switching GC behaviopr depending on scenario: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/96213#issuecomment-... This, however, would be true with any language with automatic memory management, if it's possible to implement such a system in it in the first place.
Maybe I've misunderstood what OP was getting at--can you elaborate on the distinction between these two meanings of statelessness?
That’s assuming that LLMs act like brains at all.

They don’t.

Especially not with transformers.
I completely agree.

To me the discussion here reads a little like: “Hah. See? It cant do everything!”. It makes me wonder if the goal is to convince each other that: yes, indeed, humans are not yet replaced.

It’s next token regression, of course it can’t truely introspect. That being said LLMs are amazing tools and o1 is yet another incremental improvement and I welcome it!
I think a lot of this is confusion between online versus batch compilation? Most of us have only ever seen/used batch compilation. To that end, many people assume that JIT in an interpreter is how online compilation is done.

I probably am more guilty of that than I should be.
If someone takes a picture of me while I'm in public that picture is their copyrighted work and they have every right to post that on the internet. There is no expectation of privacy in public, and Americans have very few rights against other people using photos/video of them (there are some exceptions for things like making someone into your company's spokesperson against their will)

If someone took a photo of my copyrighted work, their photo becomes their copyrighted work. They also have a right to post that picture on the internet without my consent. Every single person who takes a picture of a painting in a museum and posts it to social media is not a criminal. There are legal limitations there too however and that's fine because we have an entire legal system created to deal with that which didn't go away when AI was created.

If a company uses AI to create something that under the law violates your copyright you can still sue them.

This is experimental, frontier stuff, obviously it comes with risks. Building on GPT-4 in March of 2023 was like that as well, but now you can easily switch between a few models of comparable quality made by different companies (yay capitalism and free markets!). You can risk and use just released stuff right now, or, most likely, come back in 6-12 months (probably earlier) and get several different providers with very similar APIs.
Or the much more sensible, and MSFT way of handling it (in outlook)

Not always. The copy must be easily identifiable as copy. An exact reproduction can't have the same dimensions as the original for example.

Drawing just a person or a detail of the picture, or redoing the picture in a different context or style, is encouraged.

Selling a full scale photo of the picture is forbidden. The copyright of famous art belongs to the museum.

Flooding on roads is not super common in Austin. Some areas have flooding, sure, but it’s extremely localized. I think you hear it a lot as outreach related to other Texas cities.

Houston, by comparison, might as well be a river for how often it floods and how widespread flooding tends to be there.
Well movies, tabloids and radio/music were the original mediums used to study parasocial relationships in the 50s.

You're right in aspect that I need to know how humans work to ask them a question = if I were to ask my dad how many Rs are in strawberry, he would say "I don't have a clue" because he doesn't speak english. But he wouldn't hallucinate an answer - he would admit that he doesn't know what I'm asking him about. I gather that here LLM is convinced that the answer is 2, but that means that LLM are being trained to be alien, or at least, when I'm asking questions I need to be precise on what I'm asking about (which isn't any better). Or maybe humans also hallucinate 2, dependent on human

"That's just how the internet works" is nonsensical when AI is changing how the internet works.

Just because the tradeoffs of sharing on the internet used to work before AI, doesn't mean those tradeoffs continue to be workable after AI.

It's like having drones follow everyone around and publish realtime telephoto video of them because they have "no expectation of privacy" in public places.

Maybe before surveillance tech existed, there was no expectation of privacy in public places, but now that surveillance tech exists, people naturally expect that high-res video of their every move won't be collected, archived and published even if they are in public.
No. I'm just using for simple things like "Help me with the Elixir code" or "I need to list Bonjour services using Swift".

It's shit across the whole "AI" spectrum from ChatGPT to Copilot to Cursor aka Claude.

I'm not even talking about code I work with at work, it's just side projects.

I tried conversing with somebody recently, and they were completely ignoring me. Then I saw the Airpods. Of course. They have music or something else going on.

For now, Airpods = "I am listening to something other than you right now." So yes, if somebody were wearing Airpods as a hearing device, I'd probably not talk to them because of that expectation.

Show HN: Modern Terminal for Financial Investment and Economic Data Analysis
FinceptTerminal is a command-line interface tool for analyzing and visualizing financial and economic data. It provides users with real-time stock data, market news, and the ability to generate charts and graphs directly in the terminal and export the files in Excel. The tool is lightweight and designed to make financial data analysis more efficient for users who prefer working in a terminal environment.

Target Audience
This project is ideal for developers, traders, and finance enthusiasts who prefer working in the command line for quick and efficient data access. If you're familiar with tools like Bloomberg but want a simpler, open-source alternative, FinceptTerminal could be a good fit.

Comparison
While there are several financial analysis tools out there, FinceptTerminal stands out due to its lightweight, command-line-based design. Unlike GUI-heavy software, it offers a more streamlined workflow. Though OpenBB is a robust alternative, FinceptTerminal is evolving to include data beyond financial markets, such as business, trade, logistics, and environmental data. This broad data scope will enable more powerful comparisons, simulations, and predictions.

The project is still evolving, but users can try it out today. Any feedback is appreciated!
A great point, and a real problem, but I think in the grand scheme of things, the models inherit those problems while also simultaneously inheriting all kinds of useful knowledge about information and how to communicate effectively and dynamically with that information. It coexists with the benefit rather than serving as a defeater of the idea that there's any benefit.
