I've managed to get llms fail on simple questions, that require thinking graphically - 2D or 3D.

An example would be: you have a NxM grid. How many shapes of XYZ shape can you fit on it?

However, thinking of the transformer video games, AI can be trained to have a good representation of 2D/3D worlds. I wonder how it can be combined so that this graphical representation is used to compute text output.
Ah yes. I'm sure someone who has been convicted of fraud and someone who gleefully breaks laws running his companies will definitely track down all that corruption and help the country's finances for the good of the people.

How can you seriously believe the words you write?
Ted Chiang is a master of analogies. It’s absolutely delightful to read his work and wrestle with the philosophical questions he explores. I devour almost everything he puts out, and they give me a much-needed escape from my world of bits and registers.

“LLMs are a blurry JPEG of the web” has stuck with me since the piece was published in the early days of ChatGPT. Another good one is his piece on why AI can’t make art.

While I heavily use AI both for work and in my day-to-day life, I still see it as a tool for massive wealth accumulation for a certain group, and it seems like Ted Chiang thinks along the same lines:

> But why, for example, do large corporations behave so much worse than most of the people who work for them? I think most of the people who work for large corporations are, to varying degrees, unhappy with the effect those corporations have on the world. Why is that? And could that be fixed by solving a math problem? I don’t think so.

> But any attempt to encourage people to treat AI systems with respect should be understood as an attempt to make people defer to corporate interests. It might have value to corporations, but there is no value for you.

> My stance on this has probably shifted in a negative direction over time, primarily because of my growing awareness of how often technology is used for wealth accumulation. I don’t think capitalism will solve the problems that capitalism creates, so I’d be much more optimistic about technological development if we could prevent it from making a few people extremely rich.

The specific detail of digital resurrection, I'd agree. I don't think that's plausible.

I'm conflating the original with a much lighter form of it, a dumb-smart AI that's role-playing as one with all the power of a government: sure, compared to the original this is vastly less bad, but still so bad as to be incomprehensibly awful.

I agree with your sentiments. It's not always possible or worth it to go again the dominant culture of Java and most Java shops is against it. I have lost more of these kinds of battles than I have won.

I see Boot as a major risk for long term maintainability unless you are willing to keep Boot experts on staff. This is relevant: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33185010

I wouldn't say the same for Tika, which I have used many times. It has a relatively small and readable codebase, excluding the parsers it depends on, and does not impose much upon its host code. While complex, it is significantly more feasible to fork or adopt it, if necessary.

To your point, the typical golang library, from what I have seen, is closer to being something manageable.

The Java community is too accepting of hacks (or hack-like things) such as bytecode manipulation, annotation processing, classpath scanning, classloader tricks, reflection, excessive reliance on not-quite-code configuration, etc. There are legitimate use cases for these techniques, but they should be used sparingly, and with great care.

The logging situation is emblematic of Java's tendency to on third-party solutions even for basic, primary concerns. The development and build tooling is another major example. Whereas golang provides tools that are standard, powerful and beloved, the JDK only provides low-level tools that are fairly half-baked and require significant orchestration for typical tasks. Same situation with JUnit instead of having a sensible, built-in approach like go test. The list goes on...

You mean ... supposed pressure for Canada over the fentanyl? What exactly is to be gained there? It is political pressure for the sake of political pressure and looking like a macho man.

In that setup, Canada has no choice but retaliating. Trump is a bully and so is Musk. If you do what they want, they will bully you further. So, you have to retaliate if you can.
The point is that they are guest languages on Apple ecosystem and need Apple tooling and languages as means being available.

I may also add that I dislike Microsoft doesn't give to the .NET ecosystem the same care for games developers as Apple does for Swift and existing OS SDKs.

As far as DirectX team is concerned, only C++ exists, and .NET team lets third party folks do the needful.

Had it not been for MonoGame, Unity would never picked C# in first place, gone were the days of Managed DirectX and XNA, when the decision came to be as Unity did their cross-platform rewrite out of OS X.

I have the opposite opinion. Init scripts (upstart!) were reliable, transparent, consistent and manageable.

Systemd is none of those things.

Having said that, I have to additionally admit that init scripts had to go at a certain point. It's hard to imagine a modern scripts-based PID1. Times have changed.
Can anyone making this comparison cite sources where the collectivist, totalitarian National Socialists reduced the size of the state? It seems like a contradiction in terms. Since when did 19th century liberalism and the founding principles of individual liberty become equated with collectivist totalitarianism?
> (...) but in C++ moved-from objects are not destroyed and must be valid in their moved-from state (e.g. a sentinel value to indicate they’ve been moved) so that they can be destroyed in the indefinite future.

I don't think there is any requirement for a moved-from state other than the moved-from instance to remain in a valid state. There is zero relationship between moved-from state and the end of the object's life cycle. You can continue to use the instance of the moved-from object without any concern other than being in a valid state, but that applies to all instances of all conceivable object types.

Focus on the problem that move semantics solves: avoiding copies in general, specifically when resources are transfered to other instances. Does instance lifetimes change? No.
They do cost the target, the claim is not they cost nothing. But, if they costed the target nothing, you would safely retaliate, because that is rational response to someone trying to target you.
CTEs really tripped me up when I started using them professionally. My mental model was that they result in reusable objects in memory and thus could be used to improve performance as well as composition.

After discovering the truth, it was interesting to find out that almost everyone I knew who wasn't a snr db engineer shared the same incorrect assumption.
I think you're semi-right here, but the term precedence is ambiguous.

Left recursion causes rules to be ambiguous. In `<S> | a`, it's always ambiguous if the input has ended. Thus the data structure that would be traversed can be a circular graph. In `<S> := a | <S>, S := ε', the rules are unambiguous and the data structure that is traversed has the shape of a tree.

You get precedence rules by defining the shape of this tree, thus which rules will be visited before which.

However it doesn't have to be strict precedence. Some rules can have an ambiguous order as long as the execution still follows the shape of a tree.

For example, in my simple rule above, it doesn't matter if you visit the ε rule or the other rule first in your implementation (although it's less efficient to visit ε first).

So, I think precedence is a side-effect of doing this transformation.
I think it could even solve, these kinds of riddles are heavily trained
What is needed is an index for all the instances that are willing to be published. All server instances would have access to the public index via some gossip protocol.

Also are there any other server instances other than the php server? Seems like they ought have used the matrix protcal instead of active pub. More server implementations in different langs, and it has e2e build I. Don't think actpub has that.
> Are your utterances here helping the cause of trans liberation, or hurting it?

I get that it's been a rough couple of weeks for trans people, and immigrants, and people who due import and export, and grant-writers--but perhaps you should take a moment to reflect on how comments like this reflect on you and trans people to the general populace (which is adjacent to the point made by the comment you were replying to).

All you had to write was "Do you think this state of affairs works for or against trans people?", or even "I'm not sure I understand which direction you're going with this, could you elaborate?"

Instead, you picked an us-vs-them phrasing and were shitty.

Let me give some blunt feedback:

Trans people (the ones that are clockable) are a relative novelty outside of urban areas, and most of the voting public (much as the gays faced before) don't have any familiarity with them outside of either: scaremongering from the conservatives and tabloids, excessively fawning presentation in movies and shows and liberal/progressive media, or spicy tweets and posts on Twitter and Facebook.

Normies don't really know about the boring, relatable parts of being trans--finding clothes that fit correctly, struggling to feel that your body is right, dealing with stupid bureaucracy that doesn't match your needs, being unable to get competent or affordable healthcare, looking for a partner that loves you for being you and not because of how you look or what they think you are. (You'll note: these are, modulo some biological issues, exactly the same things that they face too.)

The trans people aren't doing themselves any favors (especially the ones in tech, who are incredibly privileged and until recently inhabited a rarified atmosphere of good pay and performative catering) when interacting with normies, though. When people like you act like assholes it confirms every negative stereotype.

Honestly? It's exhausting. It's tiring. It's enough to drive away the allies and friendlies that aren't already getting driven away by those of you with personality disorders.

The trans friends and partners I've had that are decent and capable of relating on a normal level are vastly outnumbered by the catty, annoying, neurotic transgendered men and women I've encountered in my career and schooling.

Go on Mastodon, go onto the Fediverse, and tell me with a straight face that your average trans poster isn't at least as likely to be as toxic as somebody on Twitter. Go look at the self-congratulatory bullshit to own the MAGA folks...all the way up until the election that has so many of you freaking out. Go look at the immediate closing of ranks and decrying "transphobe! transphobe!" when one of your group does something shitty and gets called out for it--even when they deserve it.

If you want to know why the popular support for trans people isn't great, look in the mirror and consider if you want to double down on a losing strategy for behavior.

The current swing of the pendulum is not good, it is not kind, it is not entirely fair--but it sure as hell isn't inexplicable. Good luck to you in the coming years.
Does it compile to wasm or otherwise sandbox the Rust binary?

If not, how can it be "trusted" if Rust has unsafe escapes that can read and write arbitrary memory? (And also, the Rust compiler has known soundness issues that makes it possible to run unsafe code in safe Rust,
More specifically Aria's Experiment (the provenance APIs) was stabilized in 1.84 which actually shipped as a release only last month, January.

Socializing these APIs is important = if you write or review unsafe Rust, especially unsafe Rust which does stuff with pointers, knowing these APIs exist makes it less likely you will write or wave through unsound software that treats integers as having provenance, sometimes you would get away with that, other times you would not, good Rust programmers shouldn't let other Rust programmers use a usize where a pointer was the correct type, just as you wouldn't use u32 where IPv4Addr is the correct type.
Use an Earley parser. A properly implemented Earley parser will do unambiguous grammars with left/right/mutual recursion in linear time. The worst case ambiguous I've worked with is UBDA (Earley, 1970). UBDA produces the equivalent of all the permutations of a binary tree - which is Catalan(n). If you generate all the combinations as you parse it won't complete before the heat death of the universe for fairly short strings.
If you sent all the headlines from the last week back in time to the editor of The Onion they would be summarily ignored as too dumb.
If people have notches in their hearing sensitivity at low or mid frequencies, sounds at those frequencies might fail to mask other sounds as expected. You could simulate this by applying notch filters to otherwise transparent lossy audio and seeing if it exposes compression artifacts. But I think this kind of hearing loss is uncommon. Normal age-related hearing loss does not cause any problems with lossy audio compression.
That's a matter of context, and raises the question of whether they're in a civil society or a war (or both at once). In principle in a civil society nobody should be punching anybody in the face and mitigating circumstances like the other person being a nazi are only details. But see Sartre's feelings about living alongside nazis in occupied France: the were very polite and pleasant, and the whole situation was tense and awkward because you're unsure of your duty in that situation - is it war or not?
This is why the market needs some regulation. Here in The Netherlands, ISPs are required to offer free (as in freedom) modem/router choice. Not only can you replace the router, you can even use your own XGS-PON/AON/etc. SFP(+) module.

For a while I had fiber running through an XGS-PON SFP module in my own Fritz!Box. Now I use the provider's ONT (which is just a fiber <-> ethernet media converter) hooked up to a Unifi Cloud Gateway Max.

Plenty of folks here that have their UDM or OpnSense box hooked up directly to fiber with a Zaram XGS-PON module.

Also, I am sorry you have to deal with caps. Data has been unlimited here ever since we switched from 56k6 to ADSL. (I also have unlimited 5G for 25 Euro per month.)

I mean, this isn't the first time leadership has ignored the constitutuon, and the country has rarely gone up in flames.

The Chinese Exclusion Act and the Internment of Japanese Americans into concentration camps strike me as particularly infamous, and the Second Red Scare (or McCarthyism) involved a lot of unconstitutional conduct as well. But I'm sure there's lots of other things, too.

Hopefully, past experience will repeat and after a brief period, there will be a return to the traditions of rule of law and respect for the constitution.
Eat your greens – A philosophy for language design [video]
I think you're not using the word precedence properly. It seems as if you're trying to explicitly instruct a top-down parser.

E.g., the precedence in these two grammars (for simple arithmetic expressions) is identical

S -> F | S + F
F -> T | F * T
T -> 0 | 1 | 2 | ...

S -> F | F + S
F -> T | T * F
T -> 0 | 1 | 2 | ...

but one recurses on the left side, and the other on the right.
And how does this make the economy boom, exactly?
I do also, but I've heard it said a few times from different people who have interviewed him or been around him in small group situations. And it's been said to caution people who continue to underestimate his appeal.
This affects all digital stores. Many labels appear to have lost their uncompressed masters, especially for stuff that was released on the internet in the early 2000s. I regularly catch them pants down when trying to buy something through digital music stores as lossless and I receive a FLAC file that shows clear signs of MP3 compression. It usually results in a refund from the store in question. For this reason I'm buying less and less through those stores, and try to hunt down cheap used CD copies instead, if at all possible.
> That humans regard the expected value of (arbitrarily large impact) * (arbitrarily small probability) as zero?

There are many arguments that go something like this: We don't know the probability of <extinction-level event>, but because it is considered a maximally bad outcome, any means to prevent it are justified. You will see these types of arguments made to justify radical measures against climate change or AI research, but also in favor space colonization.

These types of arguments are "not even wrong", they can't be mathematically rigorous, because all terms in that equation are undefined, even if you move away from infinities. The nod to mathematics is purely for aesthetics.
Yes I would. I’m running my single product building agency https://cubitoo.com and it often blows my clients’ minds how easily we can incorporate advanced features with high level work Rails enables. I’m with Rails since v2 and never looked back.
It just seemed like an outright lie and I guess it is.

It's a generic rhetorical flourish, those often come with a bit of hyperbole, aren't universally applicable, etc. That's a normal thing that happens when people have normal conversations, especially if they're a little worked up. It's this cliché, without the iambic pentameter

If you find something someone's said unclear, you're better off just asking instead of smacking them with a wikipedia link and then calling them a liar, though.
Yes, exactly, “Crime and punishment” or ”Demons” or others. Some of the dialogues are exactly about the ideologies and how different characters think and apply them, how reason manifests in violence.

In general, fully automated systems do not require persistent human labor, and thus only the cost of the machine/consumables/space/power constrain fabrication capacity.

Generally these systems are likely slower than mature subtractive CNC Mills.

"Is the resulting material close to isotropic"

Some processes hit above 98% density, but for hobby level machines it is rarely above 90% (3 cubic inches of 316L a day on a 120v 1kW max outlet.) The oxide inclusions may be an issue in some materials, but it depends on your use-case and process.

> Inneficient market spreads

Well lowering market spreads is all about increasing the returns for capital, and incenctivising overfinancialisation. It's hardly curing cancer is it?

At worst it's actively harmful if you believe that the current state of turbo-financialised capitalism has its drawbacks.

> Network latency

Not really sure what you're talking about but surely spending billions of dollars to bring rtt latencies to 50 micros or whatever is not really a great use of money and top engineering talent. Again, it's playing an arbitrage game but not really delivering any value.
Ah, right. There is a part about it there. Worth mentioning indeed. Not as detailed "meditation" about topic of networking stack and interconnections with kernel and possibilities of designing kernels around it, but still worth mentioning. Thank you!

If you had spent any time reading up on that topic you would know that there never was a coherent argument made about the alleged bribery. There even was a republican lead inquiry at that time which cleared Biden of any wrongdoing.

Biden was sent to Ukraine with the clear instruction to get the corrupt AG Shokin removed. That decision was made by the WH and bipartisan senate foreign affairs committee after coordinating with the EU and other parties.

And that is what Biden did.

It is bizarre to blatantly mischaracterize something that is so well documented.

Germany? We lived in Germany for five years and internet-wise it felt like going back to the stone age. We paid extra to get 20MBit upstream, but on Saturdays, you'd often only get 1MBit (more downstream of course). Cellular reception was crappy in much of the country (even inside larger cities).

We left Germany in 2018. We have unlimited 4Gbit synchronous fiber and unlimited 5G.
