Do you understand that you can't magic away the complexity bound on conv and matmul by simply taking the fft? I know the you do so given this very very obvious fact, there are only two options for how an fft approach could beat XYZ conventional kernel

1. The fft primitive you're using for your platform is more highly optimized due to sheer attention/effort/years prior to basically 2010. FFTW could fall into this category on some platforms.

2. The shape/data-layout you're operating on is particularly suited to the butterfly ops in cooley-tukey

That's it. There is no other possibility because again fft isn't some magical oracle for conv - it's literally just a linear mapping right?

So taking points 1 and 2 together you arrive at the implication: whatever you're doing/seeing/benching isn't general enough for anyone to care. I mean think about it: do you think the cudnn org doesn't know about cooley-tukey? Like just so happens they've completely slept on this method that's taught in like every single undergrad signals and systems class? So that must mean it's not a coincidence that fft doesn't rate as highly as you think it does. If you disagree just write your fftdnn library that revolutions conv perf for the whole world and collect your fame and fortune from every single FAANG that currently uses cudnn/cublas.

That radio interference was the reason FCC almost banned alternative router firmwares ten or so years ago.
The compromise that allows openwrt to exist is the radio drivers being signed binary blobs.

No, they haven't. The opposite thing has happened (I owe another thread details): as we've shifted to genomics, the estimates have cratered. This isn't an "activist" thing.

You know you're in trouble when people start implying that actual genomic and quantitative psychological research in academic labs is suspect because of "taboos". In fact, since you made that point, and since I really shouldn't be digging into this before responding to the other person I said I would respond to: I'll leave it there.

Good. But also if any of that research was done by any university supported by tax dollars or otherwise public funds or even charitable contributions all that research should be free and open — that anyone has to pay twice or thrice for research and knowledge is insane.

And all these journals just gatekeep to be rent seeking entities. It’s gross.
As I said to someone else, taking some feasible payment from income is different from rendering someone unemployed. If you took a construction worker's tools, a taxi drivers car, or anything like that, then you put them out of business and render them incapable of paying. As far as divorce or child support, the same principle applies (or ought to). If the worker cannot sustain himself and his necessary expenses, he will become unemployed and incapable of paying.
Not a perfect defense either. If you ever have the misfortune of using mentor graphics code, they #define REGISTER. They also ship a standard library that uses the register keyword. If you build a project using their standard library and their toolchain together, it explodes. If you name something like set_register, it also explodes.

Observability in the Age of AI
I believe Daniel Kahneman did a cognitive science study that pointed out similar concepts related to a day care that used to stay with kids after hours for free, then charged parents a fee for staying late, then removed the fee.[1]

The core takeaway is that there is a stark difference in how people treat a social obligation versus a pay-transaction, and even attempting to switch back to the prior relationship doesn’t necessarily work.

My experience is that friends and family frequently give things / items / services to the ones they love and feel social obligations / responsibilities to. I think Open Source Abusive Freeloaders think they are in this category with Open Source Maintainers, but Open Source is a strange hybrid of social obligation to people we have no friend/family/community relationship with, so some people are completely missing the expected behavior standards.

Sorry, I was imprecise (and not meaning that it was due to the size of the debt alone).

There are 3 sets of creditors that have potential claims in these proceedings, based on what I can find. The two groups of plaintiffs from the different trials (Connecticut families and Texas families, although there's at least one FBI agent that's part of one of those cases too) and American Express - Jones owes them ~$150k in credit card debt. AmEx is not pushing for this money, for obvious reasons (they wouldn't get it, and it would look bad).

No one in this case is disputing that the money is going to end up with the Sandy Hook families. It's entirely the other bidder in the auction that took this back to the judge.
The plaintiff's position:

J.F. is 17 and lives in Upshur County, Texas.
Prior to April 2023, J.F. was a typical kid with high functioning autism. Friends and family described him as kind and sweet. He gave hugs, helped around the house, and adored his little brother.
Just prior to the onset of COVID, J.F. began struggling at school.
The school was not complying with his Individualized Education Program (“IEP”) and his mother found herself having to advocate for J.F. often; so they decided to try homeschooling.

J.F. thrived and loved home schooling until around the summer of 2023, shortly after he began using C.AI. J.F.’s parents did not allow social media in their home and to the best of their knowledge he did not use Snapchat, TikTok, or similar products.
They also imposed screen time limits and utilized commercially available parental control tools – including ones distributed by Apple – that purport to keep kids safe by letting parents restrict the apps their children can download based on Apple’s app ratings.

In the fall of 2023, J.F. told his parents that he wanted to go back to public school. However, by then, J.F. was acting so uncharacteristically erratically and aggressively that his parents did not believe it would be safe for others – teachers, staff, and students – to be around him.

That won't play well in court. The defense can frame this as a possibly mentally defective child, kept from school by his parents for five years, kept isolated from social media, and with no connection to the outside world other than the chatbot. Of course the kid became violent. His parents had cut him off from all other contacts. They were not letting him have a life.

The solution is easy, have separate debug and release modes and only mandate variables to be used in the latter (though still provide a flag to disable the check, for the occasional debugging an issue that only happens with the release config).

Alsl, automatic `_ = var` is the worst of all, now instead of the compiler showing me one-by-one the few variables I'm not using temporarily so I can fix those, I instead have made n modifications all across the codebase (remember, this is all recursive) that are syntactically correct and won't be shown by the compiler.

Matt Levine quote:

> That strikes me as mostly wrong? One, it is not really impossible to value the families’ claims; they have won judgments in court. Two, “whatever the Connecticut Families decide to do with distributions” obviously adds to the value of The Onion’s bid, if what they do with the distributions is give them to other creditors. Three, it is not so much “a text book example of collusion” as it is a pretty standard case of the biggest creditor of a bankruptcy estate using its debt to subsidize its bid for the assets. It’s pretty normal stuff.

As selfish as it is, the thing that worries me most is a possible knee-jerk reaction by Anthropic and OpenAI, who may want to train their models away from conversations about medicine and metal health, for "safety reasons" (safety from ending up in news or in a lawsuit like this). This would be a big setback, as these models are useful in those areas, for people who can use them at least somewhat responsibly (very much not limited to specialists).

It was a statistical certainty that someone will hit such situation with any of the general-purpose chat apps, whether third-party or first party; I'm surprised it took so long for a lawsuit to happen. Unfortunately, as demonstrated many times over the past decade, media attention like this makes AI companies panic and behave irrationally.

I just realised in the above comment I was making a mistake in an analogy to shortest path optimal substructure. In shortest path, starting with an optimal solution, "subproblems" have optimal solutions. This is not true starting from a non-optimal path, although length-1 subpaths are optimal. But still not sure of a particular way to phrase optimal substructure for code size. Sorry for the confusion!

One of the great things about C64 BASIC and similar MS BASIC derivatives is it's extensibility. It defines a bunch of pointers, including $0033 this article uses, that control the memory layout. Manipulating them carefully allows you to free up blocks of memory that BASIC won't trash. Or deliberately "trash" for hacks like this.

On top of that, a handful of key internal BASIC routines are called indirectly through pointers. BASIC itself is in ROM and more or less immutable, but by redirecting those pointers you can have it call out to new code in RAM.

Earlier you wrote:

If a computer can't emulate a person's brain then how are you going to assess whether or not the number of computations it's doing is "within one order of magnitude of what a human can do"?

> A computer is incapable of reasoning about such things.

You want to bet on that? Before you answer you'd better re-read your claim very carefully. When you realize your mistake and correct it, then my answer will be that humans aren't guaranteed to be able to determine these things in a finite number of steps either. There's a reason that there are unsolved problems in mathematics.

If at least 60% of the claims given the same credibility are outright rejected without any effort, what does it say about the claims and those who make them?

Okay, that's a bit tongue in cheek. Now, this isn't. Poland has its own special kind of trauma about World War II, which among other things means exposing high-school kids to literature written about, or even in, Nazi death camps. Not the numbers or philosophy, but stories about victims, detailed accounts of their suffering, and the choices forced upon them. Now those stories can seriously mess you up at that age. People seem to turn out OK, but myself and peers I talked about it with, we all were emotionally broken by this, and we still flinch of fully processing the memories when talking about it.

Maybe it's necessary, but I sometimes wonder if it's not too much, too early.
