> When I'm looking for a dining establishment, what I care about are simple facts: where is it, what are the hours, what's the menu, is there a dress code, are there fees in addition to the listed prices.

You don’t care about the intangibles, or things that may be unsavory that a business owner would want to hide? If the waitstaff are consistently rude or horrible in some way, that wouldn’t be put in a website (besides those places where that is the schtick).

> The kinds of subjective assessments you'd typically see in a review such as "I liked (or didn't like) the service" or "the establishment was gross" are ultimately meaningless. They're written by randos with values and expectations that may not necessarily align with mine, so it's a waste of time trying to parse that out. And that's assuming an environment of honest reviews written in good faith, which isn't a realistic assumption.

Just because your values and expectations don’t align with every rando, doesn’t mean you can’t get signaling cues from reviews. It’s just like product reviews: if most people consistently complain about a specific thing, it probably has some flaw or problem. Praise and general 5 star flattery is less useful, especially in review gamification though.

Doctor's office won't make money from prescriptions for a drug, and the pharmaceutical company will sell their drug to whoever will buy it.

Our intention with InfluxDB Core is that it's useful to large audience. Just not the group of people seeking a historical TSDB. It's a collector, processor, and recent data TSDB. If you're familiar with the TICK stack from our 1.x line, it's like Telegraf (the data collector), Kapacitor (the processor and monitoring agent), and an InfluxDB that is better on the most recent data.

The InfluxDB part of it is more narrowly scoped than previous versions, but the Telegraf and Kapacitor parts are much more feature rich than those previous products.

We can't just ban everything though. It'd be better to just allow everything.

Honestly X is pretty crazy on the propaganda these days, it's a little scary. The issue with TikTok would be way more subtle or speculative. Anyway if it is "unacceptable", I don't want that to be for the govt to decide. Even if it was being overtly politically manipulative (which is less scary than being subtle I guess) - I'd still support it. I like consuming foreign media, recognizing bias, being exposed to different view points, and thinking critically to make my own decisions. If you don't think the average american can do that, well too bad, we can't just spoon-feed people "approved" content.

Yeah, I’d say “not a gearbox”. A gearbox to me is something where there are actual gears engaging and disengaging leading to wear and tear. Doesn’t matter what kind of fancy electronics are then used to hide the mechanical operation from me.

A mechanical CVT with belts and pulleys with changing diameters is even worse.

What the hybrids (e-CVT ones) have though is basically a planetary gear set, where the gears are put together at the factory, and stay there for the life of the car.

To me that’s not a gearbox. At least not in the traditional sense. Transmission sure.

Cool, so is all US companies in all other countries around the world then, no protections. All countries in the world, USA just showed it is perfectly fine to steal a foreign companies' asset. Let's do that to all USA companies, Apple, Amazon, Nvidia, Tesla, Boeing, Qualcomn, Intel, all of them. U know how rich you will be if you just got a piece of them? U know you could end homelessness, poverty, balance trade, stabilize your currency, elevate tax revenues, get free education and health care for your citizens, provide great jobs if you just got a piece of USA companies? Now you can! All of them can be Indian, Germany, France, UK, Poland, Brazilian, Mexican, Canadian, Kenyan, Egyptian companies. Everyone gets a piece, everyone gets them equally, everyone will benefit and be happy!

Same feeling here. It's like they wanted a way to "play datacenter in the browser", but then asked 30 different teams to do it on their own, and only have them come together after they are all done to put the pieces together.

Then find out it's not good at all and go "oh well, I guess we'll polish it over in the UI" (not knowing that no serious scale works with a UI).

If I can't have AWS I'll make do with GCP. But if someone wants to go full Azure, I'll find work elsewhere. Screw that. Life is too short to work with bad technology.
I know I am comparing Bluesky's reality vs ActivityPub potential, but there are extensions that give identity and data portability to ActivityPub, all they need is to be adopted by the likes of Mastodon and PixelFed.

Also, there is a whole spec for client-to-server ActivityPub which has been largely unexplored by developers and would allow end-users to be in full control of their whole experience (i.e, no "instance" between you and the rest of the social web.
Well.. since llms are the new search engines here's something to ask yourself. Would google reorder the results to show you more personalized results? Would they inject unrelated news into the results? Hell, would they even go so far as do "sponsored" results/ads and put those on top?

They wouldn't do such outrageous things would they. So, sure, you can trust these llms to do critical things for you just fine. Don't worry.
For the next 2-4 years, sure, but this seems like a longer-term trend towards something that's going to happen eventually.

Yeah, the labour involved in running non Nvidia equipment is the elephant in the room.

Nvidia GPU: spin up OS, run your sims or load your LLM, gather results.

AMD GPU: spin up OS, grok driver fixes, try and run your sims, grok more driver fixes, can't even gather results until you can verify software correctness of your fixes. Yeah, sometimes you need someone with specialized knowledge of numerical methods to help tune your fixes.

... What kind of maddening workflows are these? It's literally negative work: you are busy, you barely get anywhere, and you end up having to do more.

In light of that, the Nvidia tax doesn't look so bad.
The difference between Deepak Chopra's abuse of Quantum Physics terminology and WFC's is that WFC actually works and is useful for something, and its coiner publishes his results for free as open source software and papers, so he deserves more poetic license than a pretentious new-age shill hawking books and promises of immortality for cash like Deepak.

DIGITS looks like a serious attempt, but they don’t have too much of an incentive to have people developing for older hardware. I wouldn’t expect them to supor it for more than five years. At least the underlying Ubuntu will last more than that and provide a viable work environment far beyond the time it gets really boring.

>Because you could encounter absolutely any organism and make the same argument.

That's a function of the explanation being an extremely good explanation. It rises to the top precisely because it has explanatory power all across nature without evident counter-example.

>There is no configuration of organism that would cause you to say "huh, I guess Survival doesn't depend on Fitness after all!"

This is where the argument falls apart. For starters, species go extinct all the time for reasons tied to their evolutionary trajectory. And there are species still living that unfortunately seem very imperfectly adapted to their constraints and likely to go extinct without a run of good luck or human intervention (e.g. pandas). We seem perfectly capable of recognizing when such species are "on the ropes". Additionally there are relative advantages we can clearly observe from animals in overlapping niches, and we can marvel at the effectiveness of adaptations in ways that don't involve circular assumptions (e.g. algae's capability for efficient growth is astonishing and without equal on the planet).

And, we could surely conceive of preposterous examples that defy expectations (e.g. the other commenter's example of mice with 100ft teeth).

It probably feels like it proves too much, because it's confirmed over and over again in nature everywhere, at all times. But in an alternate world where that wasn't the case, counter-examples would abound (such as the mouse with 100ft teeth). So re-iterating the core lesson about the role of natural selection is not just a circular assumption, it's the culmination of hard earned, accumulated evidence, ready at any moment to be falsified.

The honeybee is a perfect example, because the stinger does pose a real question about how we understand it's relation to fitness, and it requires delving into all kinds of complicated dynamics about genetically related drones are to the queen, the role of the sacrifice in supporting the hive and so-on. If we didn't have explanations like those, it would indeed pose a problem with explanations that presume fitness.

That's a real payoff from being alert to the need to have robust explanations; I don't think anyone is just saying "well it's fitness" and calling it a day so much as they're honoring the explanatory power of a well confirmed theory.

So first and foremost, nearly every enterprise organization is still shifting a few files every 11 months thanks to the CAB. This isn't the past, it's the present.

Second, I think the statistic is that 81% of businesses have had an outage due to certificate expiry. So you need to understand that making certs expire more is inherently damaging. Automation breaks so even automated shorter-lifetime certificates will still accelerate and increase this damage.

And finally, nobody who's ever tried justifying the CAB's behavior has actually been able to demonstrate the CAB is solving real world problems. I want someone from the CAB to show me a real world exploit that happened that was because someone got a hold of a certificate between 7 and 90 days old and was able to use that maliciously.

If someone from the CAB can't do that, the entire CAB should be disbanded.

Regarding your "skill issue" comment, it really only demonstrates you have some growing up to do. There's a lot of real world complexity in operating business-critical and life-critical services, and it's obvious you lack experience with both.

Plus, you could always write a quick shell script to swap the arguments if it detects this specific failure. Inability to remember or learn which commands expect which arguments is, at some point, not the responsibility of the software to fix. Unfortunately, this field does necessitate some amount of memorization and ability to problem-solve.

Technically, the models can already learn on the fly. Just that the knowledge it can learn is limited to the context length. It cannot, to use the trendy word, "grok" it and internally adjust the weights in its neural network yet.

To change this you would either need to let the model retrain itself every time it receives new information, or to have such a great context length that there is no effective difference. I suspect even meat models like our brains is still struggling to do this effectively and need a long rest cycle (i.e. sleep) to handle it. So the problem is inherently more difficult to solve than just "thinking". We may even need an entire new architecture different from the neural network to achieve this.
