The problem with being in this space is that you need to have the financials to be around for long enough to be useful. For legal documents, that means a 3+ year horizon.

Right now, you might work for low-risk (meaning, essentially no risk of contract disputes) short-term gigs for freelancers and consultants, but you're a no-go for businesses of any size, or anyone else that needs a contract signed.

You need to demonstrate stability before you can expand from the short-term niche, or else that your signature/document validation service will survive the likely death of your company.
When I was working on this post I found the way that Turing defined “computable numbers” I bit unsatisfying as well.

If one doesn't know how to prompt the LLM, or if one uses an inferior LLM, then it's one's own fault. The prompt shown in the article failed to convey to the LLM the reason behind the ask. The LLM can behave better once it internalizes the reasoning. The low-importance comments could alternatively also have been easily filtered out using a second use of the LLM without needing any voting. The approach used in the article isn't something to celebrate.

As I said above, this issue is fraught with problematic framings.
ARC is designed to be hard for current models. It cannot be a proxy for how useful they are. It says something else. Most likely those models won't replace human at their tasks in their organization. Instead "we" will design pipeline so that the tasks aligns with the ability of the model and we will put the human at the periphery. Think of how a factory is organised for the robots.
I'm curious about the contents that these people moderated. What is it that seeing it fucks people up?
yes. your code is what i was intending to check, after all. i got confused that the '10' might represent some kind of sub-sub string. what happened was simple, i dont have access to a good haskell environment and 'claude 3.5 sonnet' hallucinated perfectly even counts, probably because i was leading a little. i apologize for not checking claudes clearly dubious output. i got excited that it seemed the 1,000 characters i copy pasted seemed to be 'super magic'. i still see some kind of pattern in the '7' digit sequence, though, and maybe there still might be a metric that estimates this property as a function of how far into the sequence you go that might have some applicability, maybe. sorry.

(also, i didnt sleep last night and smoke weed. im on a phone.)
Which code is shoddy? The Claude or o3-mini one? If you mean Claude, then have you checked the o3-mini one is better?

The word is conjugated in the case system, in other words, it's still the same word. So all of the different forms would count as one word. Learning the different forms is part of the grammar.

They aren’t exploited. They’re paid money in return for viewing and filtering content for others. They could not apply or decline the offer and look at other jobs. The availability of this job doesn’t change the rest of their employment options. But it’s pretty clear what this job is. If it was just looking at friendly content, it wouldn’t need to exist.
Hehe, so I made a (semi) serious project in a similar vein some time ago actually:

Theoretically yes, once the AirTag is deployed the keys should be static and you should be ready to go. Apple should also not be able to "ban" the tag at some later point in time.

I would suggest signing into a separate Apple account that's under your control to pair the AirTag, however. Not due to the risk of being banned, but because I have the suspicion that removing an AirTag from your (friend's) account may prompt the device to instruct the AirTag to reset. But if you sign into another account, pair it using an iDevice and then log out, that shouldn't be an issue.
Sure but the thing that matters is when you make a bond with someone who isn't a member of your family.
I think this has a TON of potential. Situations like these are very non-obvious and anxiety-inducing for lots of people, so if you can make this a way for people to gain proficiency and confidence at navigating tricky social interactions, it could be a very powerful value prop.
My only feedback would be that it took too long to get into the first challenge - lots of instructions / introduction / scene setting.

I know I'm at fault for emotively complaining about "uninformed takes" in my comment instead of being substantive, which I regret, and I deserve replies such as this. I'll try harder to avoid getting into these arguments next time.

I wouldn't be an AI researcher if I didn't have "faith" that AI as a goal is worthwhile and achievable and I can make progress. You think this is irrational?

I am actually working to improve the SoTA in mathematical reasoning. I have documents full of concrete ideas for how to do that. So does everyone else in AI, in their niche. We are in an era of low hanging fruit enabled by ML breakthroughs such as large-scale transformers. I'm not someone who thinks you can simply keep scaling up transformers to solve AI. But consider System 1 and System 2 thinking: System 1 sure looks solved right now.

You can have your I/O and Doom graphics on the Turing tape no problem.

What’s different is that accessing an arbitrary position on the tape isn’t O(1), like normally assumed for memory, On the other hand, memory (and address space) on real-world computers is finite, so you can always find a large-enough constant to make the Turing equivalent O(1) again.
Valuations don’t really matter in their playing field. It’s more about power and politics, rather than raw numbers.

"Define errors out of existence" might sound like "make illegal states unrepresentable," it's actually not. Instead it's a pastiche of ideas rather foreign to most FP readers, such as broadening the space of valid inputs of a function. One of his examples is changing the substr function to accept out of bounds ranges.

You might be interested in my review. I'm a Haskeller at heart, although the review draws more from my formal methods background. Spoiler: his main example of a deep module is actually shallow.

The SoA transformation makes sense to me and is quite general. The EoA transformation on the other hand feels like a rare special case though it seems perhaps less rare for the OP.

Either way, these types of optimizations are typically marginal in the context of end to end performance of most programs. It's good to have some knowledge of these kinds of techniques, but most of the time it makes sense to do the thing that is most straightforward to implement and optimize later once the program is already working. Of course if the problem maps neatly onto EoA then that should be preferred in the initial implementation. I though in my 30+ years of programming cannot think of a particular problem that I have solved that would have been enhanced by this.
I don't doubt that your i7-6700K still works fine. I work on an i7-4xxx. My laptop is from February 2014 and went through all Ubuntus since 12.04 to 20.04, then I switched to Debian 11. I should upgrade to 12 or wait for 13.

Replacing the HDD with a couple of SSD did a lot and maxing out the RAM to 32 GB helped too. Browsers got faster in these 11 years and uBO + uMatrix are great at speeding up web sites.

This is the architecture equivalent of blaming software usability problems on the user. If the average person can't use your product or appreciate your building's design, then the design is flawed - end of story.

I’ve been using earthly a lot lately and its general value prop is simple: it turns out that if Buildkit is your primary build tool that Make targets can almost always be represented as OCI image layers. The killer feature IMO is that its syntax is familiar enough to end users of both Make and Dockerfiles that engineers tend to be willing to onboard to it. A lot of these other solutions that use proprietary DSL’s struggle to cover every use case, and the implementations in turing complete typical language SDK approach often forces you into analysis paralysis if there is no existing pattern.

It's an everywhere problem. It's an amazing grift if you think about it.
Yes, indeed, I am in complete agreement, but what is being amplified depends on the culture's norms. That is why negative subcultures suffer the worst when they are sequestered from more sensible folks, not that wisefolk are thick on the ground. That said, those leading this technocracy are not the folks like Bezos' ex-wife who is doing so much good in the world with her wealth, in counterbalance to the horrors her ex-husband's companies are spraying everywhere.

As with all things human, we can choose to point our moral compass in any direction, for good or ill, for greater compassion or greater indifference. Taking an apathetic culture and then feeding them vapid, ungenerous, sensual, fakeass drivel is just what chimps would choose if they had the remote.

We must rise above our mammalian natures and embrace humanitarianism as our aspirational ethos, instead of techbros and popstars with their trappings of wealth and pleasure in their IG stories. We must develop a love of truth, and focus our energies upon the salve that is compassion, individually and collectively.

Darknet Diaries did a few podcast episodes on the NSO group from the perspective of people who have directly interacted with or have been the target and it really puts it into perspective how horrific they are. They operate under the protection of the US and are directly allowed to spy on US citizens without any recourse whatsoever.

One particularly grotesque case was the illegal wire tapping of Ben Suda after launching a criminal probe in to Israeli war crimes, which they used to threaten the prosecutor and used it to hide evidence that they knew was under scrutiny or take the cases to court just to drop it so they can tell the ICC that they did make an attempt to prosecute, which is a loophole that disallows the ICC to take up those cases.

I'm certain many countries do this stuff, as well as operate botnets and threaten journalists... but the uniqueness here is that these intel groups located in Israel operate under complete protection of the US without any scrutiny or oversight alongside the US government. We are living in this dystopian universe that people have warned about, for decades at this point.
Format strings are a technique that I think largely should be left behind anyway. String interpolation is in my experience usually shorter, easier to read and will always be checked by the compiler.

I’ve been learning German for about the same amount of time. The biggest boost for me now is using the voice mode with ChatGPT. This mode gives me positive reinforcement—using a newly learned word and hearing GPT understand it feels great. Plus, I can fit it into my walk to work.

Intrinsic value for an option's strike price is a special case, as the value is fixed to a historical moment by prior agreement.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems from the rest of your post that you see intrinsic value as "non-economic usefulness".

But gold's primary usefulness is as the best physical hard money due to it's fundamental properties:

scarce,
divisible,
indestructible,
recognisable,
fungible,
assayable (its weight, colour and softness)

However, your definition states:

> "if the other market participants disappeared, the value the last person holding the thing could still get from it"

and money has no use/value if there is no one to transact with (i.e. no other market participants)

So if we were to agree that intrinsic value is the usefulness of something but with the exception of any purely economic/market use, then to use "it has no intrinsic value" as an argument for why something would not be a good money (as the author does) makes no sense, as it ignores the exact usefulness that would make it a good money.

If you want a taste of the legal portion of theses just got to 4chan.org/gif/catalog and look for a "rekt", "war", "gore", or "women hate" thread. Watch every video there for 8-10 hours a day.

Now remember this is the legal portion of the content moderated as 4chan does a good job these days of removing illegal content mentioned in that list above. So all these examples will be a milder sample of what moderators deal with.

And do remember to browse for 8-10 hours a day.

edit: it should go without saying that the content there is deep in the NSFW territory, and if you haven't already stumbled upon that content, I do not recommend browsing "out of curiosity".
With video I think that it’s sometimes a licensing thing. As in, the streaming service licenses subtitles from a third party and the rights are limited to specific countries.
There's an almost Turing equivalent mechanism that has no program counter and runs everything in parallel. I call it a BitGrid (it's my hobby horse). Because you can operate on all of the bits at the same time, you can get deterministic real time performance.

It's a systolic array of Look Up Tables, 4 bits in, 4 bits out, with a latch on each latched.
There was a report by 60 minutes (I think) on this fairly recently. I’m not surprised the publicity attracted lawyers soon after.
How do you "not" allow them to operate? People write things like this that seem premised on the idea that Bahrain wouldn't have implant technology if you shuttered NSO, but the only thing that would actually change is who the invoice got sent to. These companies have an unbeatable value proposition, lots of competition, and the lowest capital investment requirements of any intelligence product.

I really feel like people aren't thinking this stuff through. Exploits and implants are not rocket science. There aren't a huge number of people in the world that are world-class at reliably exploiting modern targets, but it's not like there's just like 20 of them or something.

In case it's unclear from the comment: I don't think this is a good thing. I'm speaking positively, not normatively.
Not really. It’s human beings who choose who to focus on and with how much scrutiny, who decide on what to follow up on when given a list of hits, etc. All humans act based on the political climate and it’s naive to think otherwise.

I recognize that the particular demographic that this board attracts probably doesn't like that answer.

Steph Curry and analytics have ruined the NBA. Not Steph’s fault, he is just an insane shooter but today’s game is now based on 3’s. analytics have helped explain to teams that 3-pointer is not a little more that 2-pointer, it is 50% (FIFTY) more.

For NBA’s survival 3-pt line needs to be moved at least 6 feet back if not more. Can’t have fucking centers chucking 3’s at 45% clip. The best of the best need to shoot less than 30% from 3’s in order for NBA to change to a more interesting game again. And of course season needs to be cut to no more than 60 games

There is nothing particuarly low level about null terminated strings. It is just a convention that a bunch of standard library functions follow. Then there is a dozen variants of each of those standard library functions, most of which end up making you pass in some form of a length parameter anyway, because the convention is so terrible.

At this point, I think we might be in a better world if C simply did not offer any string API in the first place. If
