Not much, really. The UK enacted "buffer zone" statutes, and so anyone violating those buffer zones was liable for criminal charges. It happens all the time in these United States as well.

Anyone caught blessing themselves with the sign of the cross, reciting Scripture, or sprinkling holy water behind these red lines can be fined £100 (about $113) or risk a court conviction.

I believe it's a combination of a lack of customers and lack of infrastructure. It's a big continent to cover with the necessary fibre capacity, and the market is much smaller for nearby services.

Also what you don't see in things like this, or even a list of datacenter locations, is the relative sizes of the datacenters. After US east/west coasts and Europe, datacenter capacity rapidly tails off. Parts of Asia have plenty but not on the same scale I believe (although I don't know about the Chinese market). The difference in size can be quite a few orders of magnitude between different regions.
Drive out to a park. Set up a radio. Announce you are in a park. You are known as 'activating' the park. People in other places answer, they are known as 'chasers'.

Why? People like making radio contacts with people in novel places. People like setting up their radio in cool places.

There is some gameification, and points gained for activating and chasing. The points get you nothing, not everyone even records them.

Does that work?
> Making art is hard. But art is mostly about surfacing the inner world, and only in part about skill. It’s unfortunate that art selects so strongly for skill.

Not to sound like a luddite, but I do question the idea that the skill gap is merely an inconvenience. I suspect learning how to paint or make music changes something in yourself which teaches you some deeper life lessons.

I've heard the phrase (paraphrased): No great work of art was made by a genius, genius comes to you unexpectedly like a gust of wind. It seems that cultivating these opportunities is the most an artist can do, and removing the skill gap seems to be removing the cultivation, the thing that changes you, the essence.

There seems to be a few of these inherent deep workings that we as a people keep coming back to, without knowing what they are or how to discuss them (personally at least!). Not to rain on your parade OP, the project looks fun and super useful to a lot people! Just something I ponder on at times.
We had a stolen Porsche here in Seattle about a half a year ago, the SPD broke off its chase because of restrictive state liability rules, the kids who stole the car later went to Costco to grab purses and killed a woman (the kids were refugees, one was caught, one fled back to their home country, the woman was also a foreign national). I wonder how many murders would be prevented by more aggressive policing of stolen cars, or even just goin after people with outstanding warrants. The bar for progress is incredibly low right now.

"Yeah. I think it would be extremely naive of us, Mr. President, to imagine that these new developments are going to cause any change in Chinese expansionist policy. I mean, we must be... increasingly on the alert to prevent them from taking over other AI space, in order to train more prodigiously than we do, thus, knocking out our models in superior exaFlOps when we emerge!

Social Media is a risk to all of us, not just kids. I think it's very reductive to frame this as a "think of the children" moment.

We have very little understanding of the impact of an always on skinner box/rage box, and I think it's fair to want to understand more about how that could impact developing minds and to be more cautious about how we deploy systems that could be significant harms.

Frankly, I'd support more restrictions for adults as well as kids (though I'd frame it more around regulating what interactions social media can offer.)

The person you responded to was making the point that by underfunding government agencies, then they couldn't do their jobs properly and then that would be evidence that government was ineffective at doing that job, which would be used to rationalize privatizing that job.

Then you said that it was the government which was responsible for doing that in the first place so that is evidence that the government is bad at its job.

I then pointed out that there are policy makers in government, and employees of government, and that the two have separate responsibilities.

Are you saying that employee corruption and private contracts are directly responsible for government agencies being given inadequate funding and staff so that they cannot be effective?

I seems to me that policy makers cutting the budget or not allocating enough of a budget for staffing would be responsible for this, and that private contracting is more of an effect of not being able to hire adequate staff.
The other 500 values in the skew/askew vectors will be similar though. The 12 character values don’t need to be aligned, their function is to provide spelling. Adding such info will probably help LLM answer questions requiring character level knowledge (e.g. counting ‘r’s in ‘strawberry’).

Honestly, that's fair.
In my experience, issues scale exponentially with scale. So handling 10x the traffic might mean 100x the potentially issues. Redundancy helps with that so when something inevitably fails, the architecture is able to automatically recover and the end user doesn't see any degradation. So what works for lichess wouldn't work for Meta.
Of course it doesn’t. It’s just a text predictor. It doesn’t “know” anything in the sentient sense.

That's a weird wording, huh. I would interpret it not as yeah this is invalid code but we fix it for you, but rather this code would be invalid if not for this weird exception we carve out for it.

I would love to say “let's abolish ASI too”, but (1) some folks genuinely use it assuming that it's a syntax feature and not a compat thing, and (2) it's a compat thing, meaning it's not getting removed without a very valid reason. A shame, though.

$$$$$$$$$$$$

that's why. not safety. MONEY.

while there may be some very shady sources of fake grey/black market semiglutide that should be avoided, there are also the legal "compounders" who produce white-ish/grey market semiglutide. in the later case, it's the same active ingredient. the FDA, in it's infinite infallible wisdom (and $$$$$$$ pressure from pharma) refuses to acknowledge that while there is a tiny risk that the different buffers, processing methods, delivery and non-active ingredients, etc. have "not been studied" and might not be "less effective", that these are really small risks. tiny.

i feel like the FDA deliberately conflates the dangers of questionable overseas knock-offs with the legitimately pure, regulated, legal products of compounders.

are these guys violating a patent or two? meh? (note: this is a tort, but is not illegal) so sue them. but is it safe? it's as safe as anything else the FDA allows.

meanwhile we keep supporting a system of patents in medicine (and software) that are actively doing exactly the opposite of what the system was put in place for: stifling innovation instead of encouraging it. padding the rich cats pockets instead of giving the small guys a chance.

I'm guessing probably a bit of both.

> One could estimate exactly how much higher with some differential equations, but certainly in some cases it is possible to push things over the limit where there are now problems, everything else remaining the same.

It's obviously in the direction of higher indoor CO2 levels, but the effect just isn't that big if you're talking about your indoor levels being 2000ppm. It's not the cause of that.

I'll see if I can math up some numbers later to quantify.

> Moreover, those buildings likely now have much less air exchange than when designed now that they use AC instead of open windows, forced air heat instead of unsealed fireplaces (which turn over a lot of air), and possibly have been updated to more airtight doors and windows.

Yes, these are the causes. Well insulated homes are legitimately great, but now we're finding out that ventilation is also quite important and wasn't well enough planned for in many cases.

It's also that CO2 wasn't easy to measure decades ago. I'm sure many homes had high levels even with no door seals and leaky windows, just nobody had a great way to know or care. I'm sure ways existed, to be clear, but it wasn't like today where you can grab a monitor on amazon on a whim.

- Has subtle bugs.
- Is inefficient.

All of which it will generally fix when asked. But how useful is it if I need to know all the problems with its code beforehand? Then it responds with the same-ish wrong answer the next time.

Still a long way to go IMO.

I'm not sure what you're wondering here. Of course physical distance is going to be a dominating factor, but this is measuring packet transit times. The speed of light over half a great-circle is only 67ms or so, ot maybe 100ms considering velocity factor in fiber, so clearly there's more to it than just distance. We can talk about what those other things are, but we both know they exist, right?
I think your model is absolutely right. But there's a catch: Zero Trust (TM) is about not giving any machine any particular kind of access. So it's an infinite amount of machines with zero access.

The point of Zero Trust (TM) is to authenticate and authorize the human being behind the machine, not the machine itself.

(Clearly, that doesn't work for all kinds of automated access and it comes with a lot of question in terms of implementation details (E.g., do we trust the 2FA device?) but that's the gist.)
