I tried this with a friend last year (using 3-majority and a variety of other gates). We couldn't get backprop to work past one layer, probably because there isn't enough bit precision. The "train without backprop" issue is actually pretty difficult to accomplish, so we gave up.

Does anyone have a decent method to train neural networks without backprop? I think the information bottleneck sort-of works, but it's hard to evaluate the mutual information without a neural network.

The most important thing to me about the original diagram is that it is underspecified-- you can't determine its meaning just by reading it and also having a basic knowledge of Slack. To understand it you need a close and detailed knowledge of Slack UI and behavior that I don't believe has been officially documented. In fact, I'm left with questions about this diagram I can't answer even after experimenting with Slack.

In other words, there is important tacit knowledge required to interpret the logic.

I wonder if there is an updated version of this available anywhere?
> TL: If we did that, we’d just be YOLO’ing our changes, not doing validation. Which means we’d increase the probability of incidents significantly, which end up taking a lot of time to deal with.

This is a really critical property that doesn't get highlighted nearly often enough, and I'm glad to see it reinforced here. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. And predictable.

More like 400MB, and the problem isn't that I can't spare it. The problem is that I can only spare 400 MB a few times at most before it starts becoming an issue.

I have stuff to do on my computer, stuff that often involves multiple programs (one of them almost always being a browser!). Then there's bunch of support stuff that I want, or have to, keep around. A music player, an IM, a mail client, etc. When everything gets packaged as Electron apps, even those tiny utilities add up quickly, and everything slows. down. Or worse, gets starved for RAM and starts stuttering (Windows) or just gets OOM-killed (Linux).

And I say that as a dev/techie, who has plenty of RAM. Non-tech people tend to have computers that are memory-starved by default. Building trivial stuff as Electron apps, where native would be 100x less resource-intensive, is just peak developer laziness/selfishness.
Yes even the original Transformers model had only millions of parameters and nonetheless showed "impressive capabilities" because it also had Self-Attention.

AFAIU modern diesels have lower combustion temperatures in order to limit NOx formation. I imagine this comes at a cost in thermodynamic efficiency.

Similarly particle filters, catalytic converters and whatnot reduce efficiency via exhaust backpressure.

So all in all, reducing non-CO2 emissions do come at a cost in CO2 emissions (or fuel consumed, if you like). Is it as much as 15%? No idea.. And is it all worth it? I'd argue yes, old-school diesel exhaust is nasty stuff.

My strategy is based around a single premise: zero tolerance on advertising other than self-promotion or mentions of products directly related to subject of the page I am on. With that last bit I mean the products actually have to be part of the thing I'm reading, e.g. when I'm reading something about how to solder some specific type of component I'm fine with the solder being mentioned together with a link where the stuff can be bought. I'm not fine with 'electronics-related advertising' in a story on electronics, that falls under the zero tolerance part.

I use a defence-in-depth strategy to block unwanted content:

1: on the router (OpenWRT running in a container on Proxmox), network blocking using nftables sets. This includes both advertising-related networks as well as emerging threats.

2: on the router, DNS blocking using several block lists as well as my own custom lists.

3: on the router, DNS masquerading to enforce the use of my own DNS server. This only works for applications which use normal DNS so I tend to disable DoH (DNS over HTTP) and other such things when possible. If applications insist on trying to force me to use their own idea of what a DNS service looks like I will stop using those applications if there are useable alternatives. This is my network, these are my computers, this is my domain, this is my internet connection and I am the one who controls which traffic goes where.

3: on client devices, network blocking using nftables sets or (on some devices) ipset lists.

4: on client devices, DNS blocking using the host file

5: on some Android client devices, content blocking through a device-local VPN

6: on client applications like browsers, content blocking through either extensions like uBlock Origin and/or by using native content blocking capabilities (e.g. the Cromite browser on Android which I use when I have to test something with a non-Firefox browser)

7: as a last resort, my hands and eyes. If somehow advertising makes it way past all the hurdles I throw in its path I just close the page/application/window/. Thou Shall Not Pass and that's it.

While all this may sound like a lot of work it actually is not. I set up the blocking on the router once and keep the lists up to date automatically using a cron job. The same is true for client devices. Once installed the stuff mostly does its job without bothering me apart from some pages not working - so what, there's enough alternatives out there. I don't like ads, get it? No ads, zip, nada, zilch. Don't Advertise On Me.

I think the problem is it's not a defensible business because there's little barrier to entry to create an Android watch with less features. Every carrier has their own dumb, minimal smart watches, but I'm sure most of them suck because the product management is probably outsourced.

Essential features and nonfunctional requirements:

- Calendar, time and date, alarms and reminders

- IP67

- Ruby or gorilla glass screen (scratches OK)

- Locked-down phone, texting, messaging, and location sharing

- Ability to call 911

- Minimal apps

- Minimal animation

- Band that's somewhat difficult to undo and hypoallergenic material... silicone seems pretty neutral

- Not disassemblable without tools because the kids I know would have them in pieces in minutes.

- Neither a fashion statement nor a kid group social faux pas

If any existing models fulfill these close enough, then great. If not, then it might be worth entertaining but would need a go-to-market strategy to compete with every other smartwatch mfgr on the market with unlimited funding.

I think slack notifications are complicated, but getting them shows you things you should see, while eliminating garbage distractions.

That said, I still get silly @here and @channel stuff sometime even turned off per-channel, and miss some thread notifications.

So I wish you could color-code channels/messages/threads to know whether you will be notified and let you tweak things if not.

I think a lot of complexity can be visualized and that helps us fragile fallible humans.
You don't need to, but it's very easy to feel the need to do so. It's like social media - yes, you don't need to check it, but you still do.

> I colo and when it does go down I get a notification. (it's been 3 months since the last downtime and it only lasted for 3min)

That's how I started to be so stressed out. Few downtimes in a row during 6 months in the most inconvenient moments. Short, most of them resolved themselves, but I really hated when I had to choose between helping my ill grandmother and scrambling 100km home to my work computer - even if I actually didn't have to choose because 10 minutes later it resolved itself. It was still extremely uncomfortable. Eventually, every vibration of my phone considerably increased my heart rate. Maybe I checked it so often because if I saw the notification as it came, I avoided the moment of uncertainty whether it's something bad.

That's interesting - I would have thought targeting aot at the outset and then switching away only when the design became incompatible would be more effective, only because by going for aot at the end I'd probably have introduced some code or dependency that isn't aot compatible and yet too much work to replace

> Since this was going to be the first Linux Rust GPU kernel driver, I had a lot of work ahead! Not only did I have to write the driver itself, but I also had to write the Rust abstractions for the Linux DRM graphics subsystem. While Rust can directly call into C functions, doing that doesn’t have any of Rust’s safety guarantees. So in order to use C code safely from Rust, first you have to write wrappers that give you a safe Rust-like API. I ended up writing almost 1500 lines of code just for the abstractions, and coming up with a good and safe design took a lot of thinking and rewriting!

Thanks for asking! While both projects aim to provide secure environments for AI development, Monadic Chat differs in two key aspects:

> Reality is that the kid will be a loser / outsider due to no phone

I grew up in the 90's and my parents were strict, particularly compared to a lot of my peers. Things like watching television was heavily restricted. I remember making similar arguments to my parent's deaf ears "I won't fit in, all the kids at school will be talking about what they watched on TV last night, I'll be a loser" etc.

My experience was that most of the kids didn't care that I couldn't understand their Simpson's references or whatever. If anything they were sympathetic, I would get a lot of "man your parents really suck" and then kids would shrug and move on.

I did resent my parents growing up. Looking back I think they were pretty clear examples of "tiger parent" stereotype. I felt immense pressure and stress to achieve good grades and it honestly felt like nothing I did was enough to make my parents happy. I get along with my parents now as an adult but as a teen my home life felt very unhappy at times. I can remember the relief I felt when I left home to live on my own.

So I think it is more likely your child will resent you, then them being ostracized by their peers.

He has to. At least for the self-driving taxis, if the competition (Waymo) gets to the superhuman level of driving safety before Tesla, then all the gamble will be for nothing. If Waymo succeeds, then it's very likely car ownership would plummet. Why would you own your own car, when a robotaxi can reliably show up in a matter of minutes and could cost, let's say, $1/mile?
I'm personally affected and thus had 2 clients requesting my help to build their "helping" product (please help me with flutter). And a lot of shengians jump on the boat with their app to "help". Often driven by "adhd coaching"-influencers, that want to pump their revenue with an app for a market to solve a problem.

My point is: anything technically applied, that needs another tab / app isn't helping in any way. The journey will only cost money and make you dependend on their product in the meantime.

I get it, that a individual cure hast to be found, but the idea to be helpful in that case with exposure to an app is nonsense.

These things are not the field for experiments, but serious enough to be a medical neurological problem that has to be treated by experts, not victims that can create an app to make money while at it.

In practice, starting with Stalin the party mostly let the church continue unmolested.

"The Great Patriotic War changed Joseph Stalin’s position on the Orthodox Church. In 1943, after Stalin met with loyal Metropolitans, the government let them choose a new Patriarch, with government support and funding, and permitted believers to celebrate Easter, Christmas and other holidays. Stalin legalized Orthodoxy once again."
