illumos on RISC-V with CHERI would be the ultimate. There is another variant of RISC-V that is spectre immune. I have also recently heard of approaches at compile-time, such as RESPECTRE, that remove the spectre problem.
So much low-hanging fruit is glossed over because the feature is not deemed glorious enough to invest in. It takes invested teams to care about polish; almost impossible with the engineered churn at FAANG.
Good point, didn't consider that. Makes sense there are some people choosing postdocs for immigration assistance or following a partner.
This may stumble on a solution to the problem. London combines government and financial centers. Axe parliament and 10 Downing Street and rebuild government infrastructure from scratch in some inland port where it can drag influence north.

Sacramento may not be exciting, but it is self-sustaining with fairly high property costs and a huge commuter population. I think one of the things that makes California successful is the government is in a boring city with few distractions.

They can be more open and yet still not open source enough that claims of theirs being unverifiable are still possible. Which is the case for their optimized HAI-LLM framework.
I will never stop being a regular at the local bar. I may switch to NA beers as I get older, but it is entirely important to me to engage in the rituals that predate history. Having a local bar/pub, generally walking distance away from a residence, where people gather and know each other (even if they are not friends) seems important to me.

This line of thinking has also nearly convinced my to go to some kind of church, but growing up with zealots as parents has pretty much nullified that. I only wish that universities took on the roll of a third place community center, offering/advertising free lectures to locals.
Some of the zpool configurations I have set up seem "odd" to others, but they do have a purpose and are well thought out.

What motivated you to combine ZFS and bcache? What did that configuration look like? What was the thinking behind it? I would prefer to inquire further rather than make and present wrong assumptions as to why the configuration is wrong.

The native-born qualification for the presidency is in the Constitution. The US Consitution is a spare document that doesn't even mention agencies, much less agency directors. It doesn't even name major government departments or secretaries, such as Defense, Justice, etc.

Congress could pass a law about it, but I'm not sure why they would. I'm not sure what the authors of the Constitution were thinking, but that was a very different situation. For example, the US had just separated from the UK; perhaps, having just rid themselves of a British king, the authors didn't want someone born in the UK as president.
I’m not seeing it? They don’t appear to be shadowbanned from my account.
Yes there was no memory protection or anything. All ring 0!
If what's written on the blog is true, the interviewee knows their stuff technically and the interviewers were just bad: they wanted to check some boxes, feel good about themselves and be done. Nonetheless, by self admission the interviewee also didn't speak English very well ("This was my first interview for a foreign company and the first time in life I spoke english") and that could also be part of the problem or something we didn't know is how the overall communication went, this might have played a part in the rejection. A candidate, but also an employee, might be very strong technically, but they should be able to clearly communicate their solutions and play well within a team, having a genius Anarchist might not always be the best. Anyway, from the post, I'd have moved forward with the candidate and if they were rejected they probably dodged a bullet. Best of luck with the next interviews!

Emotional support doesn’t intrinsically mean spilling your soul to someone, if that’s uncomfortable for you (but you should work on that either way). IME, a shared activity / hobby like board games, woodworking, brewing beer, hiking, etc. can fulfill your socialization needs well, and has the benefit of allowing for occasional deeper conversations without feeling awkward.
There is a large volume of information about Trump, but nobody is doing much.
> The US Economy is pretty vulnerable here. If it turns out that you, in fact, don't need a gazillion GPUs to build SOTA models it destroys a lot of perceived value.

I do not quite follow. GPU compute is mostly spent in inference, as training is a one time cost. And these chain of thought style models work by scaling up inference time compute, no?

So proliferation of these types of models would portend in increase in demand for GPUs?
Nvidia shield can do that, they call it "nighttime listening mode" or something, I leave it on permanently, much better experience.

The whole point of RLHF is to make up for the fact that there is no loss function for a good answer in terms of token ids or their order. A good answer can come in many different forms and shapes.

That’s why all those models fine tuned on (instruction, input, answer) tuples are essentially lobotomized. They’ve been told that, for the given input, only the output given in the training data is correct, and any deviation should be “punished”.

In truth, for each given input, there are many examples of output that should be reinforced, many examples of output that should be punished, and a lot in between.

When BF Skinner used to train his pigeons, he’d initially reinforce any tiny movement that at least went in the right direction. For example, instead of waiting for the pigeon to peck the lever directly (which it might not do for many hours), he’d give reinforcement if the pigeon so much as turned its head towards the lever. Over time, he’d raise the bar. Until, eventually, only clear lever pecks would receive reinforcement.

We should be doing the same when taming LLMs from their pretraining as document completers into assistants.
As a trans women, I have a unique perspective on how gender impacts social relations having lived life in each of the two worlds.

Like commenters above mention, emotional support is table stakes in friendship among women. It is a kinder, gentler world - the kind of world you perhaps remember growing up in. That world still exists, but it's typically not accessible to men once they reach adulthood.

How could men access the world of emotional support? By disassociating the idea of gender and emotional support. Growing up in the 90s and 2000s, I remember emotional vulnerability being associated with homosexuality - it was "gay" for men to be emotionally vulnerable with eachother, typically leaving men with women[spouses] or family members as their only source of emotional support. The way out is decouple these two things, to un-"gay" emotional vulnerability between men.

What does it look like? Checking in on friends, learning to open up yourself, increasing emotional intelligence, learning how to hold space and reflectively listen. Not trying to solve people's problems when what they want is to be heard. All of these skills and norms exist within feminine spaces as a matter of course and when folks say "putting in the work" it means learning to employ these things.

It means that being emotionally vulnerable doesn't imply a sexual advancement. It means enforcing that as a reality.
"Vorrath, who has spent 36 years at Apple, is known for managing the development of tough software projects. She’s also put procedures in place that can catch and fix bugs."

"In the mid-2000s, she was chosen to lead project management for the original iPhone software group and get the iconic device ready for consumers. Until 2019, she oversaw project management for the iPhone, iPad and Mac operating systems, before taking on the Vision Pro software."

Is Apple having a project management/delivery execution problem? Maybe.

But, it seems like they are actually having a deeper product envisioning problem for how Apple should be leverage AI to enhance their "bicycles for the mind". They need to figure out what the right things to build are, before they optimized how to build and deliver it.
They often do.

The problem is when the email explicitly includes a plain text part which is an empty string (or a generic one-sentence placeholder), and a separate html part. In these cases, the email client is right in defaulting to the plain text version.

The U.S. firms let everyone skeptical go the second they had a marketable proof of concept, and replaced them with smart, optimistic, uncritical marketing people who no longer know how to push the cutting edge.

Maybe we don't need momentum right now and we can cut the engines.

Oh, you know how to develop novel systems for training and inference? Well, maybe you can find 4 people who also can do that by breathing through the H.R. drinking straw, and that's what you do now.
I can do that on my own perfectly fine.

You have to pass a "public trust" clearance for alot of Gov departments. They vary in intensity. For example, GSA and USDA are both pretty quick and easy. Dept of Ed, treasury, and IRS are way more in-depth.

I largely agree with your points, especially about 4-up reconstruction.

> variation in CRTs was very high back in the day

I wanted to add some more info around this point. In cases of home consoles this is true (because they hooked up to whatever TV you had) but there's one very large case where it's not true - and it's a case that matters quite a bit, especially from a historical preservation perspective.

Most arcade cabinets were made on factory assembly lines and used bare industrial CRTs. These CRTs were made by a handful of companies and arcade manufacturers selected the CRT model for a game by its specifications, which often differed from CRTs designed for use in consumer TVs. We know exactly which CRT (or CRTs) were used in most arcade cabinets and the detailed manufacturer specifications and schematics for those CRTs are preserved and online. When researching the proper modeline frequencies to set my quad-sync monitor to (because it's a chameleon), I look up the specifications of the original CRT in the original cabinet. The game developers usually had one of these industrial CRTs on their desk, so that they were developing for the exact CRT that would be in their game's arcade cabinet.

But it's even more precise than that. Many game ROMs have a set of hidden factory calibration screens with alignment grids and color bars. On the manufacturer's assembly line, after installing and connecting the CRT, workers fired up the game, went into these screens and adjusted the internal controls of the CRT so the horizontal & vertical positions and sizes of the grids were correct as well as the color bars via the tint control. I use these calibration screens to this day to properly set up my CRT to match the adjustments of the CRTs in the original cabinets (which the game ROM was written and tested against). Because my monitor handles so many ranges of frequencies, it stores and recalls these horiz/vert/tint adjustments for each unique scanning frequency (along with other adjustments like pincushion, skew, bow, etc). Historians have even managed to preserve some of the instruction sheets written for the factory floor workers to use when adjusting the CRTs to the intended spec.

Not "open" IMHO.
Developing a new train platform takes a lot of time but Siemen’s Velaro Novo platform (in development since 2013 and presented 2018) uses PMM motors[1].

I love how faithful this is to the original games but at the same time they've modernised the gameplay so that it doesn't feel it's age.

When you go back and play the originals (even Red Alert remastered) the modernised gameplay added by Open RA becomes very apparent. I can't go back to the originals now.

He raided an entire factory and he had no way of knowing whether they were criminal.

Some innocent Puerto Ricans - who are United States citizens - were detained. He wasn’t going after criminals with red notices.

In Arizona, native Americans are also being detained by ICE and they are having to prove their citizenship

Probably not. But it did raise Musk's prominence in the political realm, and might have been a crucial step towards the significant role that he played himself.

> It's easy to laugh at quotes like this, but they really had a different understanding of the word computer than we do. These machines were in fact huge and required specialists to use and didn't really do much except calculate. It's fairer to say that they were misjudging what computers would become.

Or were they predicting what is yet to come.

"These machines were in fact huge and required specialists to use"

Sounds like Azure to me.
How is the problem of "you signed a CLA without authorization by your employer to do so" solved? I'm mostly asking because I saw the following:

"I will not expose people taping out Hazard3 to the possibility of your employer chasing you for your contribution by harassing them legally. A contribution agreement does not solve this, because you may sign it without the legal capability to do so (...)"

Yeah, you're right, Redox using a micro-kernel architecture taking inspiration from Plan9 and seL4 is not new ideas. What Redox is doing differently than the others that is new is successfully delivering these ideas.

Redox has delivered these existing ideas in a manner that will soon enough be (if not already) suitable for production use and available to package for casual non-hacker users. If there is another project that has also done this in a non-academic way, I'd like to see it.

If China is undermining the West by lifting up humanity, for free, while ProprietaryAI continues to use closed source AI for censorship and control, then go team China.

There's something wrong with the West's ethos if we think contributing significantly to the progress of humanity is malicious. The West's sickness is our own fault; we should take responsibility for our own disease, look critically to understand its root, and take appropriate cures, even if radical, to resolve our ailments.
>I might have invented a hotel chain for work stays.

That's basically what wework is. I know you can't officially sleep there. I don't know what they would do if you slept in one of the 24/7 access plans though.

Also you are vastly overestimating the amount of "work" people do in hotel rooms that are not in tech.
Good question.

When BF Skinner used to train his pigeons, he’d initially reinforce any tiny movement that at least went in the right direction. For the exact reasons you mentioned.

For example, instead of waiting for the pigeon to peck the lever directly (which it might not do for many hours), he’d give reinforcement if the pigeon so much as turned its head towards the lever. Over time, he’d raise the bar. Until, eventually, only clear lever pecks would receive reinforcement.

I don’t know if they’re doing something like that here. But it would be smart.
Not great when you have to pay $1B in interest per year.
Is it public who buys these loans? Can we track them?
It's hard to tell if they're telling the truth about the number of GPUs they have. They open sourced the model and the inference is much more efficient than the best American models so it's not implausible that the training was also much more efficient.
Does it play the single player mode cutscenes though? My PC was underpowered when I was playing Red Alert. Full screen, full motion video still seemed pretty amazing back then. "Hitler is.. out of ze way"
Each factor alone is within the realm of possible but unlikely. The combination multiplies my skepticism exponentially.

It could be genuine, but I would bet against it.

What do you expect when the ideal Silicon Valley corporation is structured as a dictatorship? People have been conditioned by the industry to accept authoritarianism in their lives and work, and this is the end result.
How can openai justify their $200/mo subscriptions if a model like this exists at an incredibly low price point? Operator?

I've been impressed in my brief personal testing and the model ranks very highly across most benchmarks (when controlled for style it's tied number one on lmarena).

It's also hilarious that openai explicitly prevented users from seeing the CoT tokens on the o1 model (which you still pay for btw) to avoid a situation where someone trained on that output. Turns out it made no difference lmao.
It's not like someone had a bad day and the other side isn't over it. The schism of 1054 was centuries in the making, and even at the time it was largely not in any way impacting lives of average Christians. In the centuries that followed, there were brief periods of reconciliation and further rises in tension.

The sacking of Constantinople in 1204 and its later fall a few decades later made reconciliation far harder, and the ultimate shift of power to Moscow made it practically impossible. The final separation of the churches was formalized in the 1700s.

In all the intervening years, the Roman Catholic Church has doubled down on Papal supremacy and infallibility, something that is anathema to Orthodoxy. Beyond that, centuries of diverging traditions have further entrenched theological differences.

There really isn't any separating the ecclesiastical and theological differences at this point. Even the Protestants, who at first largely opposed the Pope rather than the Roman Catholic Church itself, sought to unify with the Orthodox Church in Moscow and found it to be too different to their liking.

There seems to be a print out of "reasoning". Is that some new breaktheough thing? Really impressive.

E.g. I tried to make it guess my daughter's name and I could only answer yes or no and the first 5 questions where very convincing but then it lost track and started to randomly guess names one by one.

edit: Nagging it to narrow it down and give a language group hint made it solve it. Ye, well, it can do Akinator.
I'm also noticing there's a dead economy theory or at least dead job market theory. AI sending resumes, AI reading/rejecting resumes. Humans wanting to talk to real humans, but all we get is slop. If we ever develop AGI I guess we'll have to go back to completely offline just to talk to real humans.
Much efficiency. Such government. Wow.
We did use actual data from existing lines to measure the gap between our models and reality. We were +/- 5% accurate.
