Within mere days of Trump coming into office, we've seen:

1. ICE round up and deport violent illegal aliens. [1]

2. The US military deploy to assist with securing the southern border. [2]

These both appear to be fairly easily to implement and with tangible impacts and yet.... the previous administration did neither. So was their inaction due to incompetence, or malevolence? Either way many Americans are looking at the lying, cheating, corrupt NYC real estate demagogue and thinking "Maybe he can fix some of the stuff we actually care about...". Which is an absolutely scathing indictment of The Establishment (tm) politicians IMO.

Do you live in a third world country? If so I might agree, but otherwise trains are perfectly safe.
Re: liability: definitely an issue. Might be the kind of thing that can only really be done in cooperation with eg ICMEC.

That being said, it might be possible to get to "better than nothing" with transfer learning, by training a model to detect both "there are children here" as well as "this is pornography". I have no idea what the success rate would be, but there have been some pretty impressive generalization results in recent years with classification models.
Yes, via FAANG jobs lol. That's one of the few realistic ways young people nowadays can afford to spend a considerable amount of time learning the ins and outs of very complex OSS
Humans can also exhibit behaviors closer to those of Bonobos.

I meant 10 million paying subscribers not 10 million dollars. I put the dollar sign there by mistake. That’s $2.4 billion in revenue and growing not counting API customers.

The question is whether ChatGPT (the product) and running thr API is profitable or at at least whether the trend is that cost are coming down.
Life expectancy at birth is irrelevant, people who die in infancy don't consume many resources at all. What matters is the percentage of the population that's of working age, and here Germany is fairly typical for a developed country.

I'm VERY interested in your project. Not playing it, I mean more the techniques and tech stack. That sounds entirely out of my reach with an AI, and ive written game engines in c++ before. Networking, synchronisation problems, etc are really really hard.

What process did you use with the AIs, any prompting insights - context, agentic prompts etc?

What tech stack did you use that you found AIs were familliar enough with, ive found them woefully misinformed about most libraries and technologies ive tried them with in game development, often confidently mixing out of date and new information
It depends on how the problem is defined.

Do private pensions solve the “I hope I have money in old-age” problem better in a fundamental way? No.

Do they solve the “I want to pay more now to have more later” problem better? Probably in most systems.

Do they solve the “what is the fair value of grandpa’s pension this month” problem? Definitely yes.

If you want guarantees, the state can pull tricks to make you believe that the world is static… for a while. Eventually, reality will force the state to price pensions in line with demographics or suffer increasingly severe budget crises.

In the past, your children were your pension. This is a private system. When responsibility for old-age is distributed without accounting for monetary or demographic contribution, politicians can promise the moon. Stop eating the young.
Well, my confidence in the owner of this company is as high as... so I am not surprised that if he is paid (I have no idea this os the case in this very situation), he will no wonder do what the money dictates without any consideration whatsoever. Did anyone see the ridiculous change he made after years of selling (at least in Europe) fact checking, following censorship and teaming up, the scandal selling data to influence an election before. I do not expect anything nice from this leadership. That is why I stopped using Facebook years ago as much as I could.

Pay isn't about "deserve". It's about the intersection of supply and demand curves and the amount of friction.

Companies have low friction firing you to get someone cheaper. Will you have low friction firing your company to get more expensive?

> You likely mean sampler, not decoder.

Indeed, that's posting before being fully awake.

> And no, the stronger the quantization, the more the output token probabilities diverge from the non-quantized model. With a sampler you can't recover any meaningful accuracy.

OF course you can't recover any accuracy, but LLM are in fact prone to this kind of repetition no matter what, this is a known failure mode that's why samplers aimed at avoiding this have been designed over the past few years.

> If you force the sampler to select tokens that won't repeat, you're just trading repetitive gibberish for non-repetitive gibberish.

But it won't necessary be gibberish! even a highly quantized R1 has still much more embedded information than a 14 or even 32B model, so I don't see why it should output more gibberish than smaller models.

I guess we’re at the mod coverage problem - take volunteer mods; it’s very common for mods to be asleep, when a goat related link is shared. When you get online 8 hours later, theres a page of reports.

When I consider my colleagues who work in the same department: they really have very different preferred schedules concerning what their preferred work hours are (one colleague would even love to work from 11 pm to 7 am - and then getting to sleep - if he was allowed to). If you ensure that you have both larks and "nightowls" among your (voluntary) moderation team, this problem should become mitigated.
It depends on what your goal is and how you define "improving your blog". So if by improving you mean you want the quality of the content in it to go up or the value that your readers get out of it to increase, then, that's one metric. Or if you want more readers, more clicks on contextual CTAs to a product or service you're selling, and more money coming in through your blog immediately, then that's a different metric.

Usually in the tech marketing circles, we follow content marketing as part of our overall demand generation strategy. IE We just educate our target audiences about things we know, that happen to also be things they would like to know. We only deliver value and do not pitch or try to sell anything (which is why I asked you what your definition of "improve" was). It is only after we have successfully generated demand and established ourselves as a credible source of information on this subject that we move on to phase 2 IE Lead Generation wherein we try to sell them stuff, show them ads, get direct contact information and pitch the products, etc.,

If you want, I can help you with a content marketing strategy and how to leverage blogging as a channel for you to achieve your goals. On the house!

Let me know if you'd like that.
I ran whatever version Ollama downloaded on a 3070ti (laptop version). It's reasonably fast. Generative stuff can get weird if you do prompts like "in the style of" or "a new episode of" because it doesn't seem to have much pop culture in its training data. It knows the Stargate movie, for example, and seems to have the IMDB info for the series, but goes absolutely ham trying to summarize the series.

This line in the stuff inside the <think> section suggests it's also been trained on YouTube clips:

>> "I'm not entirely sure if I got all the details right, but this is what I remember from watching clips and summaries
online."

An excerpt from the generated summary:

>> "Set in the 23rd century during a Z-Corp invasion, the series features action sequences, strategic thinking, and humor. It explores themes of international espionage, space warfare, and humanity's role in the cosmos. The show incorporates musical numbers and catchy theme songs for an engaging viewing experience. The plot involves investigating alien warships and their secret base on Kessari planet while addressing personal conflicts and philosophical questions about
space."

"It explores themes of international espionage, space warfare, and humanity's role in the cosmos" is the closest to correct line in the whole output.
You are not understanding the extent of violence and abuse I am talking about, and how it was systematically led and encouraged by the teachers and staff. I’m not talking about just bullies being at the school- or normal boys dominance and fighting - of course that can happen anywhere.

Despite going to a poor school, my family was well off, and I had personal experience with other environments including Boy Scouts, summer camps, etc. that still included normal social dynamics between boys with plenty of fighting, etc. but that is absolutely nothing like what I am describing above.

> The job of a head of state is to unite a people, not divide them

"Head of state" is very much a job where you get to define your own mission and duties, including "sell cryptocurrency to suckers" and "sow division to exploit". Defining internal and external enemies is a very effective technique for retaining power.
Thanks for this.

There has been some research that shows primates are more likely to cooperate in scarcity and compete during abundance.

Not universal and other factors are at play, but chimps generally prefer to cooperate vs compete.

I argue that the 2 greatest factors for human survival have been our creativity and cooperation.

We run an AI Research Lab every week where this is a central theme, helping folks navigate uncertainty through a focus on creativity and cooperation.
How can we help. Can crowd sourcing help? Is there any list of tasks that we want a crowd to do? The reason I am asking is because we have done a couple of crowdsourcing efforts and collected story data in Telugu(Chandamama Kathalu) and ASR speech data using college going students. Since we have access to the students, we can mobilize them and get this going. We will also be doing an internship program for 100,000 students in Telangana as part of Viswam[1] in April. Can include some work as part of this effort.

I'm all for reigning in government spending and our unprecedented deficit, but not sure throwing a stick of dynamite into the grant office is the best approach.
> For their department and for the population that the state serves, they bring stability and continuity to the projects their department executes.

The less polite term for what you are describing is "The Deep State": unelected government bureaucrats who keep stuff rolling despite political turnover. Brian Berletic has some good videos on YT where he's described the continuing escalatory actions of the US with regards to Russia across every Presidency of the 21st century, both Democrat and Republican.

Bureaucrats keeping the Department of Commerce consistent is probably fine. Bureaucrats keeping the Executive Branch's own National Security Council (which is what the article is about) from changing course on major issues including foreign policy? Probably NOT fine.
The hf team tweeted they'd be doing this over the weekend. I guess now it's an official project with headcount
There is no such thing as unbiased information. So FWIW, I think fact checking is really just a fight for censorship. Official lies and half truths instead of lies from everywhere intermixed with truths.

There are so many ways to do it wrong even if you tag info as true or fake and in principle you do it with good intention. For example it was the case that certain information was tagged as fake and when claimed for a correction the administrators "could not do anything" (Spain cases researched by Joan Planas by doing requests himself personally for the biggest official agency in Spain, called Newtral, which is intimately tied to the Socialist Party in Spain... really, the name makes me laugh, let us call war peace etc. like in 1984). But they were way faster in doing it in the other direction or often found excuses to clearly favor certain interests.

Now put this in the context of an election... uh... complicated topic, but we all minimally awake people know what this is about...

Shakeup in the App Store Top Downloads List
Googled around and yep...there are EVE Online gamers using LP as well. What I find interesting is from skimming the content, I don't see anyone doing statistical sampling of opposing force specs, then using that to LP-build that has special applicability towards those specs. I am fascinated by whether it was tried and rejected as not a good strategy by gamers.
Im not OP, but this sounds like the garmin instinct.
No "Slack apps" or Slack used as a notifications dump in your org?
You are lucky.

But I would warn you: Slack doesn't solve the "stealing your attention issue" that you are currently experiencing only with email.
Well now, users would notice if the screen has to constantly flicker like their Kindle instead of looking like a colour Casio screen. Meaningful user-facing distinction there.
I wear a Garmin and I still miss my Pebble Time that died to swelling battery.

- Always on. Garmin has option to do that as well but it reduce the battery life to like 3 days. In outdoor my Pebble Time is very bright with zero backlight.

- 5 days battery. I went on a trip to Japan without its proprietary charger, by the time I board my flight back it was on power save mode and it died the moment the plane landed. Garmin could do this if you set it to power saving mode, but the Pebble is in standard mode. One could argue that the Garmin do have more stuff like health monitoring that Pebble didn't.

- Cheap and no frills. I want a second screen for my phone, not a health tracker. Originally my Pebble Time shipped with zero fitness features, and it later added a step counter once it's clear that the market direction go that way.

- Garmin is quite thick, Pebble Time is thinner

- The UI is simple - press up for past event, down for future event (calendar). Press the middle button for menu. Hold are configurable. Garmin has 4 main menus which are very confusing (fitness menu, shortcut menu, apps menu, system menu).

- Lots of free apps and watch faces which I actually used (like a music app that show album art). I don't see any apps I would want to use on the Garmin, and they're mostly paid. The "hide in a hole while ceiling crush the map" game on Pebble was really well done. Now my Garmin use the simple time in Verdana watch face because I cba to find a decent one.

- Even with low framerates, Pebble managed to deliver cute little animations. Replying to message show a flying paper plane, screen transitions have suitable animations (not generic ones like Android), and the best one is muting an apps show a Ostrich putting its head under the ground. The animation also hides how slow the hardware actually is, with later OS versions stalling over a second or two after a second long animation.

- I think the phone app UI is not as good as say, Apple Watch, but it focus on apps and the store without the fitness features. Garmin's app is entirely about fitness and they hide smartwatch stuff in a menu plus another separate Connect IQ app.

Overall the PebbleOS feel like a really solid and polished product than any smartwatch today. It do fewer things than most smartwatches, but that's all I care about and everything it does is very polished.
How will those businesses continue to turn a profit without people doing productive work for them?

> I think the moment that clicked for me was when I heard young people in my family circle (25 and below), _in_Europe_ claiming that Trump "will likely be good for the economy".

Same. I am on a plane from visiting family in Europe right now. They are all convinced Trump is good for America. When pressed, they agree he may not be good for America’s people, but definitely good for America.

The young ones get their news from Rogan (and do their own research), the old ones get it from TV and think the left-wing neoliberal elites have gone too far and must be stopped.

Nobody in my family is actually right-wing and they agree with all left-wing policies when presented individually. But not when they’re asked about “the left”.
As with most early tech of a particular category, it's not the current capabilities that are the point but the direction of travel.

DeepSeek has upended the conventional wisdom about model performance with respect to training, and it's a shock to the system. It demonstrates something that has become obvious: you don't need massive scale or funding to innovate and have impact, you just need good ideas.
X was hard to configure ... back when Wayland didn't even exist.

After reading the article, this comment and the comment thread further down on pnpm[1], it feels to me like the NPM team are doing everyone a disservice by ignoring the inefficiencies in the packaging system. It may not be deliberate or malicious but they could easily have provided better solutions than the one proposed in the article which, in my opinion is a band-aid solution at best. The real fix would be to implement what you mention here: local registry and caching, and/or symlinking a la pnpm.

I agree with you. The island simplification came later. If the economy is broken, gold is not a good investment. This doesn’t change the fact that it is also non-extractive of future labor, though, which was the purpose of the thought experiment.

The problem with productive assets or non-inert commodities in this thought experiment is that they are much more dynamic — inert commodity prices are much easier to reason about.

You are fundamentally correct about capital accumulation, though. If you want future value, you should accumulate something (dynamic or static) that is valuable in the future — extracting rents or expropriating labor via force in the future are not pro-social behaviors.
It's not about fault. It's about business. Corporations have no moral obligation to you and you have no moral obligation to corporations.
It's hard to isolate the external knowledge. If R+B v R came up once every 50 games, every GM and probably every 2000 would know it inside out.

The US SBA (Small Business Administration) has a table of industries with their definition of small using either dollar amount of receipts or number of employees:

https://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/2023-06/Table%20of%2...

Here are some software related codes/sizes where $ amounts are in millions:

541511 Custom Computer Programming Services $34 n/a
541519 Other Computer Related Services $34 n/a

So, according to the SBA you are small until you do $34 million in business annually with no specific number of employees.
The website for your editor (https://telosnex.com/) has some... character. However I do believe its worth a second look at making it look nicer, I know you aren't a designer and probably think you're going for a more "raw" and "friendly" look by not putting that much effort in and using conflicting fonts, colour schemes etc, and I agree there is a lot of value in avoiding corpo-internet styles, but I still think it could stand to look less like a mixture of ai sludge and poor photoshop jobs on the homepage.

Maybe consider something like https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/

or https://nemo.foo/

Nonetheless I will try it out

From the article: they didn’t release everything—although the model weights are open, the datasets and code used to train the model are not.

Is that true about Meta Llama as well? Specifically, the code used to train the model is not open? (I know no one releases datasets). If so the label "open source" is inappropriate. "Open weights" would be more appropriate.
