I watched the video version of this article. I think this is only the 2nd or 3rd video in his "practical construction" series on the channel.

I assume there's many more currently in the works, based on how long this one was in production during the replacement of the flood gates. I'm glad that the city, engineers, and contractors let him document the construction process and make a video about it.

I also thought it was pretty cool in a strange sort of way to see each of their logos in the video's credits. Not something I'm used to seeing from independent (if you ignore nebula studios) youtubers.
> We initially trained a 32B model using 3–4K math problems from the Numina dataset (provided by STILL-2), achieving a significant improvement in AIME24 accuracy from 16.7% to 43.3%. However, when we incorporated coding data generated from the APPs dataset into the training process, AIME24 accuracy dropped to 36.7%. We hypothesize that this decline is due to the distinct reasoning approaches required for math and coding tasks.

This is interesting. For large models that were trained on much more data. I wonder if o1 is trained in a different way that GPT-4o. Do they only rely on synthetic data (plus some hand crafted datasets). But then how would O1 knows a lot of facts like GPT-4o indicating that these were in the training.

Can someone with more understanding and knowledge weight on this?

> Calling something dark energy is giving impression of claiming existence of something

There is an existence of something. Unknown variables aren’t improperly named. The solution to dark energy may be matter, it may be modified gravity (almost certainly not), it might be time bubbles à la timescape (which requires re-figuring the Big Bang, possibly less parsimonious than lambda CDM).

There are terribly-named conventions in science. Dark matter is only one to the degree of explaining confident popular ignorance.
I would not pay my kids for grades, my parents kinda did this and in retrospective I came to conclusion it was not good incentive.

I personally don't like grades system, in my simplistic opinion it tought me to adjust to school system- I was memorising just enough to get a grade, then I was forgetting this because the only thing I cared for was grade and not actual skill or knowledge. I had to occasionally memorise/relearn stuff again. I also paid attention to what triggers my teachers so they notice me as good student, so I could occasionally get good grades just because they recognised me. This worked even at university. Now that I'm older I am 100% convinced how wrong this was. Instead of picking up skills and knowledge I was learning to game the system. I don't want my kids to be like me.

I send my kids to school where there are no literate grades until they are 13 (first 6 years). First three years they do 'work with help materials' and that's how they learn to read, write, count and some math basics. They learn this to acquire skill, not to get grades. Next 3 years they are continuing that pattern + they do projects in teams (where projects are very open-ended). This is the time where there is work they have to do, those tasks are marked as yellow. There are optional tasks marked orange and red but only kids who want them pick them up. During first 6 years teachers pay very close attention to what kids pick up and what do they avoid, so it's not possible to simply not do math just because you don't like it, or not write essays, teachers try to understand what are the blockers that make students to avoid picking these up and work with students to unblock them. Last 2 years they are introduced to grades because that's what highschool system here is based on (though, if I have good health and will be able to work I will send them to purely project-based highschool).

I totally get this point. My impression was that the complete instrumental understanding was predicated on the metaphysical understanding, making the instrumental understanding almost incidental.

So like, the resolution to the cargo cult wouldn't be to teach them how to actually build airplanes, but rather to first dismantle their religious hierarchies, "correct" their religious beliefs, forbid or prevent their institutions of knowledge transfer replacing them with modern schooling, forcefully replace their epistemology with a "modern" epistemology, possibly using violence, promote certain ideals and social norms, etc. It seems to me that then and only then, with the epistemological groundwork, can the actual planes and runways be built correctly.
> competing platforms being just better for things like blogging/writing.

The "just" is your explanation there. Most businesses want a blog, but also a half dozen other things. An event calendar, a mailing list, contact forms, an online store, etc, etc.

WordPress is kind of a mess technically, but you'd probably be surprised at some of the name-brand sites that use it. I want to say the NYT was using it at some point. It's the epitome of "don't let perfect be the enemy of good enough". You could build a better site by duct taping together a dozen services or open source products, but WordPress is generally good enough.
No it's not. Well, if designing the system in bad ways, it can be, but that can be said about anything.

Nothing I've tested specifically with Android--my use has been mostly Steam Deck or iPad Pro.

I've had good luck with the Anker stuff. Not sure if any of it's on Aliexpress, but they are on Amazon. I have a couple of the Anker 555 which is about $50. The Anker 332 looks fairly similar for more like $20. Both have the "PD-IN".

I'm, again, not sure how it would interact with Android, but basically all of these have a HDMI port as well. It might be worth a try to see how Android handles the portrait/landscape stuff with an external display--connecting it to a cheap monitor might resolve some of that for you. I have some fuzzy recollection of doing this back in the day with a MHL adapter and the phone displaying portrait the right way up just with black space on the left and right on the screen.

Anker 332 with a charger connected, mouse and keyboard plugged in, and HDMI running to an external monitor might get you essentially a "desktop" experience with a single cable. If her laptop has a USB-C port as well, when that's working she may be able to just plug that in to make use of all the peripherals on that instead. Something like the 555 also has a SD card reader which could work as some shared storage for moving files between the devices just by plugging them in and saving them there.

Dogmatic doesn't mean the same thing. The most general term might be something like "magical thinking"—we use cargo cult not to refer to people holding a belief unquestioningly, but to refer to people going through the motions of a ritual without having a strong rational basis for believing it will have the desired effect, and even more specifically it implies that the ritual was borrowed from someone who actually did understand the science behind it and knew how to apply it correctly.

Even "magical thinking" doesn't capture all that nuance.

> I feel relying on WINE and Proton instead of building a proper GNU/Linux ecosystem will eventually backfire, it didn't happen already because thus far Microsoft chosen to ignore it.

Microsoft can't do shit against WINE/Proton legally, as long as either project steers clear of misappropriated source code and some forms of reverse engineering (Europe's regulations are much more relaxed than in the US).

The problem at the core is that Linux (or to be more accurately, the ecosystem around it) lacks a stable set of APIs, or even commonly agreed-upon standards in the first place, as every distribution has "their" way of doing things and only the kernel has an explicit "we don't break userspace" commitment. I distinctly remember a glibc upgrade that went wrong about a decade and a half ago where I had to spend a whole night getting my server even back to usable (thank God I had eventually managed to coerce the system into downloading a statically compiled busybox...).

Well, yes, this is what makes HN and sites like it work for the target audience: they both passively - by endlessly discussing a group of topics which is of interest to a relatively narrow group of people - as well as actively - by vociferous use of the down-vote button on those who venture too far outside of the desired discourse - shun those who do not fit in. If you do fit in you'll see this as a positive, if the topics discussed here are of no interest to you you won't care at all since you prefer to be somewhere else. It is only for those who straddle the edges of the evolved site profile who will think negatively of this since they want the site to accommodate them as well. Some (myself included) are fine with the subject matter discussed here since they can simply ignore those things which they're not interested in but would like the down-vote to disagree rule to disappear so that legitimate comments which don't fit the desired narrative do not get greyed out into oblivion. Others (like you?) would prefer a less hype-oriented subject matter discussion.

For the most part once you start going deep down one rabbit hole, it’s almost impossible to change jobs and go back to software development. I see it happen all of the time with people who leave software development and go into “DevOps” [sic].

Companies aren’t going to take your side projects seriously. With the current job market, why wouldn’t they hire someone with recent relevant experience? If you can get an interview with a company that relies heavily on coding tests you might stand a chance.

The best way to pivot back is to get a job where you do have recent experience - in your case data - and then after awhile do a formal or informal transfer to more of a software engineering focus

My university had a proof based, let's construct the natural numbers from axioms and prove that a+b == b+a type course as the first class for aspiring math majors. It was a "weed out" course, not in the sense that it was particularly hard, but more in the sense of introducing students to this is what 'real' math is actually about, and not so much the stuff you were doing in high school. Some students decided each year that they didn't want to do 'real' math and went on to focus on other things.
Consistency is not Google's strong suit,
but I will put this out there:
games that involve real gambling with real money can be aimed at adults and presumably age-gated to discourage minors from playing.
Games that simulate gambling but don't involve real money aimed at minors and not age-gated are the problem.
Much like the FTC in the US bans tobacco and alcohol advertising that could be interpreted as encourage underage use.
For example, Joe Camel. https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/1997/05/...

There's a reason you don't see toys and merchandise for kids,
even completely free of actual tobacco or alcohol content,
carrying branding for those products.

Is it completely consistent or good that Google gives an award to a game intended for adults while banning a similar game pitched to kids? No.
Is it at least consistent the legal and social conditions in the US? Yes.

If you want to make an argument that it's fine to target minors with products that simulate or appeal to similar interests as gambling, smoking, or alcohol,
by all means make it.
But don't conflate entertainment provided for adults with games for kids.

I think an aspect where " classical" literate programming excels is in the form of printed educational books.

A great example of this is LCC "A Retargetable Compiler for ANSI C" by David R. Hanson.

Reading about how to write compilers in theory is fine, but it's very nice to learn from a full working example implementation.
Literate programming fails because it I'm a programmer and so it is telling things I already know. I understand how to read code.

Literate programming makes sense if you are writing raw machine code, or assembly where you cannot always name something important. DoSomething() better do what the names says it does so you don't need a comment to say anything more about it. Look at all the examples - why are they saying anything about "#include <stdio.h>" - if you don't know what that line does then you have no business reading C code - go learn C and then come back. Sure you could read the literate programming comments without knowing C - but I cannot think of any reason anyone would ever do that.

Comments that tell me what the code cannot are very helpful. Telling me that this complex sequence of weird code is just the standard AES algorithm is helpful (I haven't seen AES code, but I've seen other encryption algorithms that are weird bit manipulations and I assume AES is the same), but even then if I need to touch that code I better refer to the AES documentation so don't write how AES works. (If it is a custom algorithm for your company maybe document how it works, but the code is not the place for that). The important part is the code can tell me why is happening but not why it is that way so comments should tell me why you are doing something.

I don't know if any example of this, though I know this is something Noah Smith always claims (and I have a dim view on his knowledge of China). The closest thing to this is what happened to Google and Facebook, but they were really just blocked because the government wanted them to censor information, and they apparently weren't playing ball. But in terms of the Chinese government chasing a foreign company out just because there's a Chinese equivalent, I've never actually heard of a specific example.
