> Here there is no "world" in the data, you have to make strong causal assumptions about what properties of the target cause the measures. This is not in the data. There is no "world model" in measurement data.

That's wrong. Whatever your measuring device, it is fundamentally a projection of some underlying reality, eg. a function m in m(r(x)) mapping real values to real values, where r is the function governing reality.

As you've acknowledged that neural networks can learn functions, the neural network here is learning m(r(x)). Clearly the world is in the model here, and if m is invertible, then we can directly extract r.

Yes, the domain of x and range of m(r(x)) is limited, so the inference will be limited for any given dataset, but it's wrong to say the world is not there at all.

The article you're commenting on mentions that FedEx didn't deliver the pallets of handhelds to the warehouse, but instead left them at an unrelated construction site next door. This is clearly FedEx's fault, they didn't even deliver to the correct address.
Single parent households are more likely to be poor, and are likely to have less time available to care for children. Those are both things strongly associated with higher chances of the children becoming criminal. Why do you think that is not sufficient to explain things?
Well the problem from my POV is that that exact empire he defended was persecuting millions of people, banning their languages, sending their people to forced labour camps, exterminating native people in Siberia, and keeping about 90% of the whole Russian society in serfdom (which in Russia was basically slavery).

You keep being "open-minded" about that, I prefer modernism and liberalism, thank you.

Not anymore. DSLR makers are already using AI (in-camera neural network processing) for things like upscaling and noise removal. https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/reviews/canon-eos-r1-revi...

"The Neural network Image Processing features in this camera are arguably even more important here than they are in the R5 Mark II. A combination of deep learning and algorithmic AI is used to power In-Camera Upscaling, which transforms the pedestrian-resolution 24.2MP images into pixel-packed 96MP photos – immediately outclassing every full-frame camera on the market, and effectively hitting GFX and Hasselblad territory.

"On top of that is High ISO Noise Reduction, which uses AI to denoise images by 2 stops. It works wonders when you're pushing those higher ISOs, which are already way cleaner than you'd expect thanks to the flagship image sensor and modest pixel count."
This method is called "packing party" (without the moving) by the [Mm]inimalists.
I have known plenty of parents who, as you suggest, do not try. We ourselves have tried various tactics, but sometimes the children just absolutely refuse. And the thing about cleaning up is that the person with the highest tolerance for messiness usually "wins" (and this doesn't only apply to children). :-)

And yeah, there may be room for creative incentive structures / choice architecture. The effectiveness of these things is a function of the parents, the children, and the conditions, and sometimes there are just more important things to attend to so we let this one go.

As I said, errors.Is works with ErrValue and errors.As works with ErrType. I guess the word "Is" is doing too much work here, because I wouldn't expect ErrType{Code:1} and ErrType{Code:0} to match under errors.Is, though ErrType{Code:1} and ErrType{Code:1} would, but yes you could implement an Is method to override that default behavior.
Next test a image & text model! Chess is way easier when you can see the board.
I hope you know that there was a reason I wrote that challenge.

Your solution failed because you installed the rootkit that was aliased via the lsof command in the .bashrc.

Additionally, lsof like so many other tools rely on procfs, which allows processes to rewrite their own process names (comm) and arguments (cmdline).

Even if the malware of the article would run only in userspace (as non-root and "only a wheel user"), you certainly would have executed it.

My point being that you also forgot to check any processes against environment variables like LD_PRELOAD that the malware uses before executing any command (meaning even syntax programs like "if" as a program can be hijacked).

Again, this is a conceptual problem because there is a lot of programs in $PATH that can be executed by the same user, meaning only a kernel hook or ebpf module can audit/grant access to these kind of things to prevent that.

There is no trusted execution in Linux because of so many things down the line. Glibc, the $PATH mess, aliases, .local overrides etc.

You nailed it with all of those, from my experience. Nearly all of the toys we have were gifts. Two sets of grandparent, with not enough grandchildren to go around, and more options than ever. Even birthday parties have us struggling to fill the car with all the new crap. Plushies, barbies, Bluey merch, Gabby merch. I think my and my parent's generations can't seem to help themselves. I think there's also some compensating for being able to give the kids things you would never have been able to get. I know I'm susceptible to it as well. I bought a rock tumbler kit for them the other day, because I always wanted one as a kid.

Too many overcompensating adults, too few kids to be the recipients of that compensation, too many toys out there to buy. This doesn't even touch on the scarcity/scalping of certain toys as well, which also breaks the brain in its own way. What do you mean, no one has Muffin from Bluey in stock and it's $80 on ebay? Now my brain is on a mission to find it and buy it at MSRP, when I really shouldn't care to begin with.

> "internal database of statistical correlations" [would be] a world model of sorts

Not in the sense used in the article: «memorizing “surface statistics”, i.e., a long list of correlations that do not reflect a causal model of the process generating the sequence».

A very basic example: when asked "two plus two", would the interface reply "four" because it memorized a correlation of the two ideas, or because it counted at some point (many points in its development) and in that way assessed reality? That is a dramatic difference.
What this really does is remove the ICC's authority.

Came here to say the same thing. Looks like in 2024, there were 9 unintentional shootings by children in Texas.

The 36 number is inflated, as it likely includes teenagers with intent.

For those downvoting the parent comment, please do some critical reading of the article. It's conflating "children of all ages" with "toddlers". This is an absolutely trash article.
If there's a social expectation of coming with a present to your nephew or cousin or mother or whoever's birthday, or at Christmas, or whatever, and you know no-one wants to have a discussion about different ways to do things... what do you do, other than buy some silly thing that ticks the required social box? Genuine question.

I've tried a few little things myself, but with very little success. There just is an established set of patterns where you have to buy certain things, or else there'll be mumbling behind your back, and there doesn't seem to be a way around it in the short term (other than accepting the mumbling).
In lots of the country, parents should be asking the parents of their kids' friends if there are unsecured weapons in the house before letting them go over to play.

Don't worry, the Supreme Court has interpreted that to mean it only applies in criminal cases, and even then there are only 4 kinds of situations in which it applies [1].

1st. Every law that makes an action done before the passing of the law, and which was innocent when done, criminal; and punishes such action.

2nd. Every law that aggravates a crime, makes it greater than it was, when committed.

3rd. Every law that changes the punishment, and inflicts a greater punishment, than the law annexed to the crime, when committed.

4th. Every law that alters the legal rules of evidence, and receives less, or different, testimony, than the law required at the time of the commission of the offence, in order to convict the offender.

5/6ths of the universe's matter is missing, or thereabouts. That fact aligns with there being six vibrationally distinct dimensions in our 3-space (our physical dimension being just one of them, our soul inhabiting its counter-dimension, all things in our universe having been created in pairs). The matter/energy from each dimension are distinct, so we can't detect the others using instruments made with ours, yet -- somehow, I don't know how -- the mass combines to contribute to the gravitational inertia that keeps the galaxies from flying apart.

That said, when we slam particles together at high enough energies, we do see crossover (briefly) in the form of anti-particles. I couldn't begin to explain the mechanisms behind this, but the structure can be known to seekers of compassionate existence. This is also a hint to the solution to the question of why, after the Big Bang, we don't have an anti-matter left; the answer is that it's where it is, but that we can't detect it with our current tech (or maybe any tech, for all I know).

The universe was made to be known by we human beings, we being the information processors designed to work in harmony with this information-theoretic universe, which is fully queryable by a suitable trained mystic.

A Sufi Murshid (teacher) lived his entire life in a single town that consisted of a single pair of roads that met in the center of town. Late in his life, he stated that, he "knew the stars of the Milky Way better than he knew his town". (A love-consumed mystic remains conscious as our souls leave our bodies when we sleep. What is called astral travel is not limited by our physical body's speed laws; it is bounded only by the "speed of thought".)

Sufi stories are glimpses of corner cases meant to spur us to push past our "known" boundaries. We need to get this world at peace before we can explore our advanced abilities. As Louis Armstrong said, "If lots more of us loved each other, man, this world would be a gasser!"
The problem with Nordstream conspiracies was in fact that you could easily finger anyone as responsible, absolutely including Putin. The benefit to Putin (not "Russia" per se) is that it eliminated the revenue source from gas sales to Europe in the immediate term, and thus made "end the war now" less attractive to his domestic power base (because it wouldn't make them any more money for a few years).

A coup from disaffected underlings unhappy with the status of the Ukraine war is hardly a weird theory. He's fought off one already!
This was a really great read! I'm wrote the tree sitter grammar for the Unison programming language, and discovered I really like the work involved in pattern matching that writing tokenizers and parsers comes down to. It also gives you an in-depth understanding of how the language works that you've writing a parser for, and how tooling works.

Like if you have an AST with the ability to map onto code that is displayed in your IDE, the algorithm for an IDE to refactor a variable name is to traverse up the AST until you get to the variable's declaration and then traverse all sibling trees, changing each matching name, but stopping a traversal whenever you encounter a new binding with same name. Code folding is to identify the categories of node that are "foldable" and then you hide every child of that node. Etc. It's all tree traversal algorithms.

It gives you a deep appreciation for how powerful the tooling can be thanks to proper parsing.
I like it. I will share it with my friends.
It's been really heart-breaking to see everything that's happened with Diana over the last couple of years, with the long COVID and everything.

Piłsudski said in early 20th century that "in Russia even anarchists are imperialists" and he was basically right. And remains so to this day.

Russia managed to somehow do imperialism/colonialism and get away with it without reevaluating their past. Probably because they colonized white people.

> Rupert Sheldrake speaks of this when he says that the genetic code's protein construction genes do not and can not account for the resulting organism's shape. That coordinated construction requires a separate guiding force.

Of course there's a separate guiding force. It's the biochemical environment around the cell. Cells operate on chemical signals they receive from their environment and generate the same; these cause cells to differentiate themselves based on their genetic code, which where the resulting organism's shape comes from. This isn't some kind of mystery, we know how this works, and matter & energy are indeed sufficient to explain it.

I don't think the point is that Othello-GPT has somehow modellled the real world training on only games but that tasking it to predict the next move forces it to model its data in a deep way. There's nothing special about Othello games vs internet text except that the latter will force it to model much more things.

What makes a chess move invalid is the state of the board. I don’t think moves like “pick up the pawn and throw it across the room” were considered.
Curious if anyone knows the logistics of these cloud provider/AI company deals. In this case, it seems like the terms of the deal mean that Anthropic ends up spending most of the investment on AWS to pay for training.

Does anthropic basically get at cost pricing on AWS? If Amazon has any margin on their pricing, it seems like this $4B investment ends up costing them a lot less, and this is a nice way to turn a cap ex investment into AWS revenue.
Unless I'm misunderstanding something they are not comparing the reconstructed board state to the actual state which is the straightforward thing you would show. Instead they are manipulating the internal state to show that it yields a different next-action, which is a bizarre, indirect way to show what could be shown in the obvious direct way.

Keeping the dam isn’t a ‘scientific’ decision because science doesn’t make decisions—it just tells us what might happen: more fish, less renewable energy, changes to flood control, etc. The real decision is about trade-offs, like how much we value fish versus clean energy, upstream ecosystems versus downstream economies, or cultural traditions versus infrastructure costs.

Calling dam removal ‘activist’ implies the push to keep it isn’t. But keeping the dam is just as much about advocacy—it’s about prioritizing things like renewable energy or flood control. Neither side is more ‘scientific’ than the other; they’re both driven by values. Science helps us understand the stakes, but humans decide what matters most. That’s why this stuff gets so messy.
I wasn't aware of that. The Unity 6 Preview announcement from just this year had a lot of stuff around iOS and Android browser support:

As someone who finds chess problems interesting (I'm bad at them), they're really a third sort of thing. In that good chess problems are rarely taken from live play, they're a specific sort of thing which follows its own logic.

Good ones are never randomly generated, however. Also, the skill doesn't fully transfer in either direction between live play and solving chess problems. Definitely not reconstructing the prior state of the board, since there's nothing there to reconstruct.

So yes, everything Hikaru was saying there makes sense to me, but I don't think your last sentence follows from it. Good chess problems come from good chess problem authors (interestingly this included Vladimir Nabokov), they aren't random, but they rarely come from games, and tickle a different part of the brain from live play.
