Managing state is always a hard problem. Versionable extensible persistence is harder still. Now add the requirement that this state has to be captured in a concise but human-readable way, and it's really hard to do in a way that doesn't introduce numerous footguns. I'm not saying that there isn't some good solution, but I don't know what it is, and I don't think anyone has figured this out yet.

Neither does giving China everything they want, though. I agree that America isn't poised to replace all the things we import from China, but denying them from strategic sectors like compute and chipmaking makes perfect sense. China has to aquiesce to the principles of globalist security if they want to reap the rewards from international partners like ASML and Nvidia. America has no reason to give China the slightest foothold for as long as they seek political isolation from global partners.

On the flip side - there is a path for America to re-affirm it's position as a high-tech manufacturing hub China couldn't hope to replicate. It will take a while to get it working, but with enough funding America can import everything China can't have and build their manufacturing sector off that. I don't have high hopes for it, but I don't have high hopes for China catching up on EULV in the short-term either. Sanctions against China make sense from every perspective except short-term profitability.
I believe Parquet predates Arrow. That's probably why.
It's certainly the case that China has been burning a lot of coal. But that doesn't mean China's PV depends on the existence of coal power to produce it. The objection here seems to be that a renewable economy is impossible because it hasn't sprung into existence fully formed.

And isn't coal responsible for all that concrete nuclear plants there are built with? The vision of a nuclear-powered world implicitly assumes concrete will produced in some other way; this is a harder task that replacing coal electricity with renewable electricity.
No it isn't, but it looks like it is. The same is also true with (abusive) monopolies. They make less money stagnating. The difference in both is that it's easier to be poorer. But you give up a lot of value for easy money, and let's be real, when you're that rich it's no longer about the (utility of) money but the power and high score/bragging rights.

(Markets can work with monopolies, even efficiently, but it's the problem of benevolent dictators. They're never benevolent and eventually abuse their power. Competition is good for everyone involved because a stagnating monopoly is just one overtaken by bureaucrats who don't know how to make money, i.e. it is already dying)
More broadly I think hallucination is inevitable in pure text models. We need model architectures incorporating a stream of real-world ground truth such as a live video feed or embodiment.

Those are all things that take a looong time and cost a hell lot of money, which could be turned into electricity in 2 years if you'd spend that taxpayer money into renewable technology. The war will be probably over before those countries dependent on Russia will become self-sufficient.

This is desperate, keeping alive an outdated technology. France slept on the change and now has to do everything to keep the show running.

> You'll basically have the same problems with renewables if china would ban export to eu/us

The solution would only include scaling up existing technology which is already there. Technology which doesn't require safety measures compared to nuclear. Technology which isn't that expensive. It would actually be fabulous if they'd do that because maybe countries like Germany could regrow their potential in this sector. They used to be on the front of it before the Merkel goverment killed a whole sector.

So yeah...it's not even close.

> We can decide to build wind/solar instead of nuclear reactors.

That's what Germany did, but such intermittent renewables can't power an industry-heavy country by themselves for obvious reasons (e.g. the sun tends to set at night)

No matter how much renewables capacity you want to install, you always need a controllable and reliable source for the baseload : that will be either coal, gas, hydro or nuclear. Only two of those are low carbon btw.

So let's see :

- Germany doesn't have the geography for hydro (unlike say, Norway).

- They don't want nuclear because politics.

- They became partly reliant on Russian gas, an extraordinary geopolitical own goal (and hilariously, sold by a Greenpeace-affiliated energy company as "green gas")

- The only other solution left is coal, lots of coal. That's what Germany has been doing despite political promises to phase it out.

The two main end results of this policy are :

- Germany has some of the worst CO2 emissions per kWh produced of large European countries. As I write this, it's emitting 23 times more than France (the poster child for nuclear) per kWh. Source : https://app.electricitymaps.com/map

- An estimated 22.900 premature deaths every year across the EU from coal-fired power plants. Germany's plants cause an estimated 2490 premature deaths per year in neighbouring countries alone. Source : https://caneurope.org/report-europe-s-dark-cloud-coal-burnin...

Imagine if France had a nuclear incident causing 2490 deaths in neighbouring countries, every year ?

Nuclear is like air travel : spectacular when it fails, but much safer than all other modes of transportation.
ive been fascinated by the tiktok melodrama in the states.

congress and senate insist its a sinister communist plot.

activist groups grown from whole cloth in the past year insist its causing immeasurable harm to children despite similar stateside competitors having existed for nearly two decades.

but i feel the reality is much simpler. Bytedance is a 120bn private foreign company thats squished all four of its major competitors in the US. Its not open for investment, it wont accept a buyout from FAANG, and most importantly its a massive media outlet that cant be influenced by the manufactured consent of the existing media in the US.

on tiktok you frequently see a very unbiased, very unflattering depiction of the nation that encourages viewers to critique and discuss controversial western topics.
The TikTok ban story deserves more coverage than it's gotten so far, though today might be a turning point. I strongly expect that they will disappear from the main US App stores on 19th January 2025; whether or not I think this is just.

I saw a lot of people dismiss the ban bill out of hand after it was signed. However, I see a lot lining up against them:

1) Flat out refusal by the parent company to sell both strengthens the USG's case and cuts off a major 'win-win' outcome that could otherwise save them

2) The fact that they're the only major foreign owned social media company in the whole pool. This means that USG has far more latitude, legally and politically, to go after them then any other major platform.

3) The zeitgeist shifting away from Social Media in general, as seen in these lawsuits and just in... the world lately.

I could be wrong but I'd definitely bet on it.

Hope is not confidence inspiring for the most difficult problem at the heart of the system. That doesn’t mean it has to be impossible, but it needs to be taken seriously and not an afterthought.

Another thing you have to think about is what happens when data of a new schema is sent to a client on an older schema. Does the “merging” work with unknown fields? Does it ignore and drop them? Or do you enforce clients are up to date in some way so that you don’t have new-data-old-software?

What's the best library for JS or TypeScript?
See, I would say that both of those things are important topics to cover in school. Children need to know about statutory rape, so they (a) don't ignorantly commit it / participate in it; (b) can be protected by those laws, in the event they need to seek such protection; (c) understand why those laws are there, so they don't stay in an abusive situation just because “I'll go to prison if you tell anyone!”.

The laws around drawn CSAM are strict. You don't get a free pass for drawing a 14-year-old having sex with another 14-year-old, merely because you're also a 14-year-old. (There's a good reason the law works that way, as ridiculous as it might seem.) Children need to be aware of such things, especially in jurisdictions where children can get tried as adults for taking naked photographs of themselves (which is just about the worst possible way to address that problem).

In many cases this information tends to minimise or normalise sexual image sharing.

The content of the curriculum is a separate issue to the content of school libraries, but similar attitudes motivate decision-making in both cases. Censorship of information about sex has concrete harms, and especially censorship of information about child abuse.

As of 2023, we were at the peak of the Gartner Hype Cycle for Generative AI.

https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2023-08-16-gartner-places-generative-ai-on-the-peak-of-inflated-expectations-on-the-2023-hype-cycle-for-emerging-technologies

This is old news. What it implies is that we should be deep into the trough of disillusionment. We see this borne out in the NVIDIA stock price which is flat for 3 months. Likewise for MSFT. There is a related question about whether or not we are in a bubble for AI in the broader stock market. The money that drove the bubble thus far, and the market in general, came from Microsoft and Google and Amazon. They have very deep pockets and should be able to keep it all going for a while. A simple Google search for "AI Bubble" comes up with report after report stating that the ROI will be smaller than is warranted in the investment so far and all the hype.

Deloitte came out with a report about generative this summer

https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/consulting/articles/state-of-generative-ai-in-enterprise.html

In it, they are saying that generative in the enterprise has to embed deeply into the org. It should lead to productivity and efficiency. Right from the opening statement, they are saying that a human-centric approach is necessary.

Given all this, I believe that the true use of generative in the enterprise is decision support. This is a term that comes from healthcare, which is an industry my startup has been focused on for years. It is, perhaps, the most conservative industry. That decision support is the right choice now makes sense, since it is the conservative industries that start to become intersted in the trough of disillusionment. However, they will have high requirements in terms of hallucination, accuracy, reasoning, data security, and cost. Startups doing generative right now should be trying to hit those requirements.
It is a neat approach, but one that comes with a tradeoff, IIUC: doubling the key heads.

I wonder if a different approach without that issue exists. For instance, using max(0, exp(x)-1) instead of exp(x) in the softmax attention formula. That way when the query is orthogonal to the key (or worse), it does not contribute.

Russians BTGs were a failure, an attempt to create a hyper-flexible swiss army knife for offensive + defensive + occupation activities, which then fell apart when they faced peer-level resistance from the Ukranians.

The BTGs were mostly Infantry and Artillery, supplemented with Tanks and specialty assets. Heavy losses in one of the main three segment made the rest of the BTG mostly or entirely combat-ineffective. And that's basically what happened -- the infantry and tanks died, and artillery was relatively untouched, which led to Russia sending convicts (Storm-Z) to find targets for the (still remaining, quite numerous) artillery.

They did not have real, integrated logistics and heavy engineering units on the BTG level (though they do have combat engineers / sappers). What supply units they do have are limited, and they are dependent on higher level replenishment organizations for operations lasting longer than 6 days. Those replenishment orgs inevitably got bombed by the AFU, so the BTGs rapidly ran out of gas and ammo, even when rocking a full TO&E.

They did have integrated EW and HUMINT capabilities, with the EW being particularly potent; Russian EW is still very good, even on the BTG level. The downside of these, though, is that they are a swiss army knife; small enough to be useful, but not big enough to be ideal (and withstand casualties), and it forces a busy commander to divide their attention in ways that a larger org may not.

Is that possible for families with three kids under the age of ~8? The requirements for how large a child must be before they can ride without a car seat have gone up significantly since I was a child, and it seems like strollers have gotten much bigger as well. I remember my two siblings and I being squeezed into the rear seats of the station wagon. Even when just one of us was in a car seat it was a tight fit. My siblings and I are roughly spaced 2.5 years apart. These days we would certainly have all been in car seats at the same time which would just not have worked.

I have two short friends who live in the city and have two kids. When their second arrived (and their first was a toddler) they replaced their sedan with a "mini"-SUV specifically because it became difficult to fit all the things required for taking both kids somewhere at once, especially if they were flying.

Agreed on designori[0], but as they stand the animals are slightly problematic, for, as proposed, the sly fox seeks truth, and the brave lion camouflages its actions instead of roaring magnificently.

How about:

Leopard:
embraces externalities
loyal to (direct) superiors
values camouflage
respects (brute) strength

Crow:
rationalises externalities
loyal to truth (an abstraction)
values legibility
respects (book) smarts

Unlike the popular conception[1] of lions, leopards are known to hide and ambush (they have the spots, after all!); unlike the fox, who's easiest to encounter at dusk and dawn, crows do their thing right out in the open, in the middle of the day, and they don't care who's watching.

>The court explicitly left open the question as to whether they are a monopoly.

Presumably because that's not a question that generally needs answered. A lot of people growing remembering microsoft getting sued have this flawed idea that monopoly always equals bad. There are plenty of legal monopolies, companies don't get in trouble until they start doing illegal stuff to keep their monopoly. A lot of areas naturally favor a monopoly, that's not illegal or necessarily bad.
I also had this view, but thinking a bit more about it, what we consider 'reasonable axioms' in math, all come more or less from our logical intuition. Which was built from our evolution, which respects the laws of physics.

This has changed my point of view to where math is kinda derived from physics, as the axioms (but even the derivation rules, like modus ponens) are chosen because they respect what feels intuitively 'logical'. But this intuition cannot be disentangled from physics, as it was a product of physics.
