Well, I work on this stuff, but I’m mostly sharing this to spread awareness that you don’t need a multimillion dollar rack of nvidia gpu machines to do inference with surprisingly powerful models these days. Not that long ago, you’d need a much more expensive multi-kilowatt workstation to run this sort of thing at a useful speed.

Packaging. A phone is absolutely stuffed with components, most of the market highly values thinness, so every mm^3 is jealously fought over. Putting the camera in the middle might mean making the phone bigger, having to shrink the battery, or putting antennas in less-than-ideal places. It's design trade-offs all the way down.
We already have extremely high-bandwidth storage. Jens Axboe posts benchmarks on twitters using his io_uring test server, like this one[0] claiming 180 GB/s of write throughput, which is fast enough to start blurring the lines with memory bandwidth. You can't use mmap() for large persistent data because CPU silicon doesn't support enough virtual memory, ignoring the other performance issues with current implementations.

The elephant in the room is that using high-bandwidth storage well with minimal RAM requires different and much better scheduler design than currently exists in the vast majority of systems, including every OS I am familiar with. The higher the bandwidth and the larger the storage, the better your scheduling needs to be at latency hiding using techniques that don't involve a large cache. A lot of hardware tech, like Optane or HPC fabrics, was invented to avoid having to address schedulers being poor at latency hiding, which is essentially a (non-trivial) software problem.

Most users of modern fast asynchronous I/O still tend to delegate scheduling, treating the I/O schedule and execution schedule as separate concerns, even when done entirely in user space. It is a missed opportunity.

You do raise a valid issue: this requires a much more sophisticated design and implementation than most developers are comfortable with, which creates a lot of inertia behind doing things the classic way. This could all be abstracted away from the average developer in principle, something similar to a database kernel, but no one has built one yet.

The thread is about ads in language model results. Do you think OpenAI is going to resist putting ads into their results for the next few years? I hope they do, but I wouldn’t say it’s a given. You definitely won’t get (intentionally injected) ads on a model you run locally.
My personal view is that science is our human “interpretation” of what’s “out there”
Using a language (math) and a method (scientific method) which leave no room for doubt.

It is purely a human endeavor much like other arts we pursue - except in this art, we settle opinion/belief with a specific method. For a belief to be inducted into science, it has to endure rigorous tests.

Cs peirce attempted a proof here: https://www.peirce.org/writings/p107.html

At an individual level, I suspect, we fear the uncertainty that comes with the “irritation of doubt” and we also fear being a social outcaste. Therefore to optimize happiness we would rather stick with the beliefs of our tribe - however unscientific they may be - because they serve as a mental anchor. Hence the prevalence of religions and beliefs that are tribal.
People should try to socialize in real life. The web is 90% rage baits, trolls, people completely brain washed by fringe conspiracy theories and politics

IRL these 90% turn into 10%, if you really care about socializing you'll have more meaningful interactions with the grandma living next door than with the queer black queen zuckerbot ™

It's like if people asked supermarkets to hide plastic apples amongst the real ones because they look better and never went bad, as if they somehow forgot why we even eat food in the first place
I’ve written kernel code to do various anti-ddos stuff, however its the exception for sure.

Debugging complex systems is more in the wheelhouse of sysadmins. When I came up it was a requirement for sysadmins to be proficient in C, a commandline debugger (usually gdb), the unix/linux syscall interface (understanding everything that comes out of strace for example) and perl.

Usually those perl scripts ended up becoming an orchestration/automation platform of some kind- ruby replaced perl at some point. I guess it’s python and Go now?

The modern “kernel module” requirement is more likely to be a kubernetes operator or terraform module, and the modern day sysadmin definitely writes those (the rest of the role is essentially identical, just tools got better)

The price (that consumers are willing to pay) is the only decent proxy for quality we have. Quality, of course, includes consumers’ preferences.

If the one car sells at a market price of 1/5 of another, then the only reasonable conclusion is that, as judged by consumers, one car is worth 5x as much as the other, and therefore is 5x better.

That’s what market prices are: the collective valuation of goods/services and their alternatives. Of course, the market clears at a price that is a combination (you can think of “average”, but that arithmetic is not the process by which prices are discovered) of the preferences of all consumers in the market.

If you have a preference that goes counter to the market, e.g., if you do not think those two cars are 5x different in quality, then there is a great deal for you!

If you think the worse car is only 2/5 the quality (rather than 1/5), then you can get something for half the price you’d be willing to pay if the rest of the market agreed with your preference.

If, on the other hand, you think the better car is 10x the quality of the worse car, then the same “deal” is true for you. You’d be willing to pay 10x the cost, but you only have to pay 5x the cost.

There are plenty of good macro and micro econ courses available for free if you’d like to dig into this sort of thing more.
It’s a bona fide occupational qualification, it’s completely legal under the Civil Rights Act and works the same way if for example Hollywood wants to hire a black actor or a Las Vegas club wants to hire female dancers.

Packaging and commodifying Black and queer cultures for sale to people, while not actually engaging or giving back to those cultures is a pretty time worn tradition, tbh.

Wasn’t that a comment about an article regarding the use of AI by Meta?
Car regulation is relevant to the topic, and so is car regulation of modified cars in Sweden which they are planning to drive through and a statement was made on. I have thought about this. It is something that is discussed a lot in Sweden. But not available outside it as those discussions are in Swedish, and also not held by everyone.

I'm interested in quality of life because I spend a lot of time working, organizing thing and doing projects. This is also on topic. But as such I don't have that much time. Or at least not enough to end up getting stuck here instead of doing something more important. I've found that the best to manage that is not to hold a regular account. My first account is however many years older than yours.

Sometimes I do have some time or find the motivation to post, because sharing information about something you know about to others who might not know about it but have thought about something I haven't is something that is harder to do anywhere else than on the Internet. In this case how the freedom to tinker with a car can affect the long time viability of creating bigger things.

Unfortunately your comment doesn't seems out of place. It's very much part of why I'm not around a lot. It simply isn't worth posting anything when I have something better to do. (Which isn't really now since I'm on a train to Stockholm with little else to do considering the holidays).
LLMs just predict the next word, based upon the texts they were trained on. They are, by definition, a hallucination. It's just that, sometimes, they put words together that fool people.

LLMs as Pattern-Matching Enhancers for Metaheuristics?
By the stupid, for the stupid.
Candida species cause thrush and yeast infections. Afaik they are fairly ubiquitous in the human biome but become problematic when Candida gets out of control.

So if you can test for it chemically there could be positives even if it's not a problem. So it would be a matter of looking under a microscope at the gut microbiome and checking if theres an overgrowth. And then treatment is tricky in the gut - how do you target a single problematic species but keep the rest of the microbiome intact? And if you do knock it out, you still need to create the conditions where it doesnt just bloom again since its ubiquitous.

In the end it might be a thing where you have to follow general gut health advice and try to cultivate a healthy gut microbiome.

> This starts with advances and investments in world-leading American AI technology and infrastructure.

We are lighting money on fire and need more. Give us more money. Don't ask questions.

> Second, the country needs to champion skilling programs that will enable widespread AI adoption and enhanced career opportunities across the economy.

We need more of you to buy this half baked shit we keep throwing at you. Give us more money. Don't ask questions.

> Finally, the United States must focus on exporting American AI to our allies and friends, bolstering our domestic economy and ensuring that other countries benefit from AI advancements.

Politicians in this country are so fucking stupid that we can talk about AI like it's lumber or steel and how we need to export it like it's a tangible thing. Give us more money. Don't ask questions.
Consider that someone talented enough to write a library probably has a much higher salary potential than a front-end hacker. Shouldn't the latter be allowed to eat, as undignified as you may find it?
The details I'm not sure about; what I'm sure about is the pettiness on the part of Railsconf organizers. Just a few samples on HN:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40835261 shows a moderator of /r/rails rewriting history, implying Dave not going to RailsConf 2022 was Dave's fault, along with airing bizarre grievances like "We inserted snark at DHH in a Rails release candidate."
I imagine most courts in the US would, in fact, find “3N” as blatantly infringing the 3M trademark.

Except for these types of services scale is in your favour. A bakery has a high cost of goods sold, whereas services like this tend to have high fixed costs but relatively light costs per customer. So scale is very much to your advantage (within reason).
We all do know that doctors do have to go through a whole residency phase in their training where they spend a lot of time with sick people and work under the supervision of more experienced doctors, gaining personal experience with the field.

What I've found is that while local coffee shops are sit-down friendly, they all close at 1, 2, or 3pm, at least where I am. 5-6pm if they're a chain. If I want a small bite to eat, a hot drink, and a place to work after 5 I basically have the option of a bar or a sit-down restaurant. It sucks, and I have no idea where this 3pm closing time thing is coming from. Maybe being too short staffed to have more than just a morning shift?
> There's real scum out there.

Yup, and that's a particularly important lesson in context of group dynamics, where a large enough group (of say 10+ people) almost certainly contains some bad eggs, and if you present yourself as either isolated or psychologically vulnerable, these people WILL single you out.

Though the corollary is true as well - if you meet enough people, sometimes you will get to find folks who surpass your expectaions.

> returns of Chinese equities vs GDP growth

The equity market is just one place where companies can go to receive investment. In China this is a small part of total investment pool. So, no surprise that these equities don't go as fast as the rest of the economy, there is a lot of competition. In the US this is the reverse because traded companies are allowed to swallow more and more of the real economy.

Sailboat Metaphor
>Presuming peaceful coexistence, then it is not in anyone's interest to limit anything beyond the basic idea of 'my freedom ends where your begins'.

Let me put it another way. Your comment suggests some kind of state of maximum efficiency in which the best producer can be charged with production in a monopolistic fashion, and that would limit the amount of resource usage and toil for everyone. In an ideal world with zero possibility of conflict or other externalities like tsunamis, volcanoes, extreme weather, disease, etc., along with perfect foresight of each monopolist, that makes sense. However, we do have possibilities of disruption that make redundancy beneficial. A monopolistic structure can also grow stagnant. With more competitors you have more chances for good ideas to break through. There is a cost but it is essential to maintain some competition and redundancy across geographic and cultural bounds even if it is not the absolute mathematical minimum resource solution. This redundant effort also helps the labor market by giving people something meaningful to do that might otherwise be unmarketable.

My idea of instituting duplicate effort requires support from a lot of people, because it's not free of cost. But I think it's the right way to manage society.
it's the opposite. People buy iPhones and Apple products for the quality of their hardware and the cost of the devices themselves reflects this. Apple is one of the least software focused tech companies in the world. Everyone except for American teens obsessed with the colors of their chat bubbles uses WhatsApp, Telegram or FB Messenger and other completely platform independent apps. Nobody's ever bought an iphone for Apple Maps, everyone runs around with Google software on their phone.
would the distinction not be on wether the vehicle is turbocharged? or did they use map/maf regardless?
But this is something that is completely missing with these Reddit posts. Most are spam.
Most Americans are incapable of seeing the double standards of their own culture. Unfortunately for them, the rest of the world is well aware of this.
The EU isn't exactly famous for its love of deregulation, you know. Quite the opposite, especially when it comes to tech.

But I'm referring to the withdrawal of cohesion funds from countries like Poland and Hungary under newly invented rules like needing to share "EU values". These values aren't defined or written down anywhere, but the only countries that seem to violate them are those with conservative parties in power. The moment the conservatives are no longer in power, suddenly the country is in compliance with "EU values" again.

> We're getting a few glimpses from the Ukraine conflict - drones, social media - but who knows what else

Actually, from the assessments that I have read, while new technology and drones have made a meaningful splash, it seems like manpower and the ability to produce large quantities of artillery shells have been the true determiner of the tides. The lesson learned thus far is that considerations from the past still matter.
I had not thought about it that way. It's not such a great deal if you feel you belong wherever you are living now in Europe, and view yourself a quasi-citizen and European (even in case if there's no realistic path to citizenship due to your personal circumstances).

How far in the future are we talking about?

Russia doesn’t have the capacity to transport that much oil by land. It’d take years to build that infrastructure and it’s not even clear that China is at all interested in supporting huge investments that make them that dependent on Russia. Keep in mind that China and Russia are not fundamentally friends.. Russia is still holding territory that belonged to China, and that China wouldn’t hesitate to take back if they saw an opportunity.

Unless they can transport by sea by the arctic route year round (could eventually be enabled by climate change), the only way is to go south. Which is a far more vulnerable route than oil from the Middle East.
Regarding the last point, I’ve seen companies doing exactly this, making the purchase through an admin account and relating the license info to each employee that needs it.
