> VCG auctions tend not to work well because the bidders often don't have a strong enough grasp over game theory nor a deep enough understanding of how valuable an asset is to them, and therefore the VCG usually generates suboptimal outcomes

May I hazard a guess that you worked on low-value recurring auctions? You're describing unsophisticated bidders unwilling to expend search costs. For them, yes, "the seller has an interest in providing participants with as much information as possible about the object’s value" both before bidding starts and during it, the latter due to the impact to bids being less than the overcoming of search costs.

> the auction that seems to work the best is the Ebay auction, where you get immediate feedback if you underbid, but you aren't allowed to see how high the other person is willing to go

Another comment highlights why this doesn't work for high-value items [2]. (They also assume bona fide bids, which isn't a problem if you can filter out shill bids.)

Maybe a naive question but I don't really understand the why of this? Why do I need ChatGPT in Apple Intelligence? Shouldn't Apple Intelligence just do what it's asked? Is that Apple saying it's Apple Intelligence isn't that good? Is this some business dealings I don't understand?

It sort of parallels setting a default browser on your phone. Do you want to use Safari or Chrome? Do you want to use Apple Intelligence or OpenAI? But that's really not what it is, because everything is still funneled through Apple, then to OpenAI.

The script will probably be human written, I'm not talking about an AI producing a film from scratch, rather a film being produced using AI to create all the visuals and audio.
Hey, same boat.

On interviews:

I've had the same problems. "tell me about the problem you've solved" was a huge a challenge for me. 'cause I couldn't remember frankly. Find a mentor (a buddy, coworker, someone) and ask for help. Practice. Go back in your employment history and try to come up with a story about things that you've done.

On getting organized:

Pick a strategy like GTD and go with it. Medication helps, but you need a structure. If GTD doesn't work, continue trying. Something as simple as a list of tasks that you review every single day is super helpful.

Good luck.

> The Nash equilibrium for second price auctions is to only bid the maximum you're willing to pay.

Of course... why would you ever bid more than you're willing to pay? Huge doesn't mean more than your maximum.

Also those shill bids are also betting on being able to perfectly find the point where they are juuuust below your max bid without knowing the actual max bids on the item at any given moment. If they fail they can not pay out but the seller is out their time and any listing fees (depending on the eBay era we're talking about). Conceivably you're still willing to pay your maximum bid the second time an item is available in most circumstances.

Even shill bidding aligns with the goal of auctions to find the maximum price for an item. The goal of the auction is to benefit the seller not the buyer's ability to get a deal. It would probably be fixable by making the bid more binding but that's a separate issue you're still paying at max your nominal maximum price if you win.

This is like getting accused of murder, and the judge finding you guilty because you didn't produce knife during discovery, the prosecution said you had.

A bit off topic, but whenever Rails and templating get brought up, I have to plug my absolute favorite project out there: Phlex https://beta.phlex.fun/. It's like ViewComponents, but swap out the ERB for pure Ruby. It has been a joy to develop with.

Too specialized. You can't use GPUs as general purpose computers. The basic unit of operation is the warp, which is 32 threads operating in lockstep (simplified). If you're not using all 32 threads, then you may as well not be using a GPU.
Thanks! It's a really destructive job for workers' lower backs and elbow tendons. This actually puts into perspective the blended throughput rate - you can imagine loading a few bags really quickly, but moving 20kg bags for 10 minutes straight will slow you down. That said - we still have a lot of runway on speed for these mechanisms and are still running fairly conservatively as we shake out our software.

There are a few ways we plan to deploy (some fixed rails, some mobile). Since the carts we're loading aren't placed with much precision, even the fixed deployments need to do serious environmental perception / localization.
The DSL is basically just Rust structs with optional fields. We essentially use the same struct parser rust uses but with some small tweaks.

It was a default judgement. No trial took place and there was no ability for the jury to see evidence from both sides. The monetary amount was absolutely based on feelings.
Sure, but once you've justified moving data onto the GPU you don't want to incur the cost of moving the operation output back to the CPU unless you have to. So, for example, you might justify moving data to the GPU for a neural net convolution, but then also execute the following activation function (& subsequent operators) there because that's now where the data is.

The beauty of LLMs isn’t just these coding objects speak human vernacular but they can be concatenated with human vernacular prompts and that itself can be used as an input, command or output sensibly without necessarily causing error even if a series of inputs combinations weren't preprogrammed.

I have an A.I. textbook that has agent terminology that was written preLLm days. agents are just autonomous ish code that loops on itself with some extra functionality. LLMs in their elegance can more easily out the box selfloop just on the basis concatenating language prompts, sensibly. They are almost agent ready out the box by this very elegant quality(the textbook agentic diagram is just a conceptual self perpetuation loop), except…

Except they fail at a lot or get stuck at hiccups. But, here is a novel thought. What if an LLM becomes more agentic (ie more able to sustain autonomous chain prompts that do actions without a terminal failure) and less copilotee not by more complex controlling wrapper self perpetuation code, but by means of training the core llm itself to more fluidly function in agentic scenarios.

a better agentically performing llm that isnt mislabeled with a bad buzzword might not reveal itself in its wrapper control code but through it just performing better in an typical agentic loop or environment conditions with whatever initiating prompt, control wrapper code, or pipeline that initiates its self perpetuation cycle.

AWS never offered a service based on the AGPLv3 version of the MongoDB server. Therefore the change of license terms to SSPLv1 was not directly caused by Amazon’s use of the software as part of an offered service, and had no impact to Amazon DocumentDB as an independently developed interoperable protocol implementation.

There were cloud providers headquartered in Asia that did offer AGPLv3 based MongoDB server as a service.

Long story short, the author lives peacefully and comfortably in a country defended by others and has ethical issues helping those who protect him. I don't see eye-to-eye with such people. I joined the military (the infantry) straight out of high school out of a sense of duty due to my upbringing. I knew what the job entailed but never thought about it much. It was peacetime, too, so that made not thinking about it easy. Then, the war on terror (9/11) happened, and the reality of the job blew up in my face (almost literally).

The original RV32I and RV64I required some control registers for high frequency counters and instruction counters. You also needed the instructions to access these registers. This proved to be too complex for the simplest implementations, so recently (five years ago?) this functionality has been moved to their own extensions.

Including these extensions in G makes the current G have the same functionality as the original G.

Let's put it like this: the probability of an individual to be at a BMI of 30+ AND being very lean, while not using PEDs, is extremely low.
So low, in fact, that it doesn't make sense to even look into these outliers from the societal health point of view.

Imagine a 180cm 98kg male. That would be a BMI of 30. How often do you see people of that size with visible abs? And of those, how many are the ones who've never touched steroids, sarms, peptides and hgh?

If a person's BMI is less than 30, they are going to be okay no matter what their body composition, and with a BMI of 30+ they aren't going to be okay, whether they are fat or jacked.
Both obese and insanely built people put massive strain on their knees and back, both typically have high blood pressure.

Then the adipose tissue itself has various negative inflammatory effects on health, which sceletal muscle doesn't, and fat people encounter psychological side-effects of being unattractive, which jacked people don't, but PED use has its own list of well-known issues, and being THAT MUCH into bodybuilding is highly correlated with body dysmorphia alongside other physch issues.

So both are bad, and when speaking about general population health, we shouldn't really focus on body composition- BMI is good enough marker on its own
