There's another way around it. People that see themselves as "freethinkers" are also ultimately contrarians. Taking contrarianism as part of your identity makes people value unconventional ideas, but turn that around: It also means devaluing mainstream ideas. Since humanity is basically an optimization algorithm, being very contrarian means that, along with throwing away some bad assumptions, one also throws away a whole lot of very good defaults. So one might be right in a topic or two, but overall, a lot of bad takes are going to seep in and poison the intellectual well.
> Only at the cost of runtime checks

And those checks are well worth paying for, enough that Rust also has them! I'm sure Rust would have even worse ergonomics if it insisted on no runtime bounds/unwrap checks. The performance cost is low enough that every systems programming language should have spatial safety. To illustrate, Google found that hardening libc++ by adding bounds checks only led to a 0.30% performance impact on their services [1]. It's not hard to imagine that a similar run-time cost affects Zig and Rust. Both languages make attempts to optimize the checks away if the operation is known-safe. Although, maybe Rust is more successful due to the borrow checker.

> and/or misusable allocator passing.

Could you clarify how allocator misuse might lead to a spatial safety violation?

Fact checking is things like Republicans claiming that people in a certain town are eating cats and dogs or their are pedophiles in the basement of a certain pizza place. There isn't any need to model and scrutinize data to fact check the majority of nonsense Republicans spout.

Although true, it isn't a very useful observation. "How do I find someone impartial to this matter?" is one of the great unsolved questions that the lawyers have to deal with. Up there with "what is true?".

If anything that is one of the big promises of AI systems. Maybe we can have adjudication that is both extremely intelligent and provably biased towards consistency, facts and evidence. SHA256sum-ed and torrented around for inspection. It'd be a game changer for fact checking instead of the highly falliable groups that we have right now.
Maybe they are. The solution to this is to provide evidence in favor of your argument. That's how we used to resolve conflicting opinions: debates supported by evidence.

Now, instead, we're simply getting rid of any attempt to decide what is factual, and instead let demagogues decide for us what is fact and what is not, without any evidence at all. Since evidence is now superfluous, why waste government money by providing it?
Going out on a bit of a limb here, but I’m guessing the data will find their way to xAI.

My hypothesis is Musk is following a South African playbook. That involves, in part, privatising the commons.

For a 131GB model, the biggest difference would be to fit it all in RAM, eg get 192GB of RAM. Sorry if this is too obvious, but it's pointless to run an llm if it doesn't fit in ram, even if it's an MOE model. And also obviously, it may take a server motherboard and cpu to fit that much RAM.

When I was in the workplace, I enjoyed the actual practice of analyzing problems and writing code to address those problems. There was a certain satisfaction in knowing that I wasn't engaged in some behavior I enjoyed that was less than efficient for my employer -- there didn't exist an AI that I could unleash on the problem or that I could consult to help me write the code. Now (I imagine) a programmer who enjoys the act of programming cannot in good conscience write code "by hand" -- he is wasting time getting the product out unless he utilizes the AI. But from subjective standpoint of the programmer, using an AI is like using an AI to do the New York Times crossword for you -- where's the fun in that?

What laptops are you on?

I can guarantee you that there are at least two people in this world for whom Linux supported their hardware out of the box

There are lots of people for whom it’s true, cause there’s a lot of hardware either old and stable enough to be supported, or Thinkpad. “Old” doesn’t mean bad hardware, but it’s not everyone’s or “DO IT” hardware either.

Either way, people who say “do it” often forget to mention either the issues (both hw and sw) or which hardware they are using. Props to ggp for specifying their laptop model, but I still would like to know if sleep works for them cause that’s the first point I’m skeptical at. We can’t just logical-or all the good experiences from different people, it doesn’t work like that.

Of course working sleep doesn’t erase all the sw issues an average linux desktop user will have. But let’s be honest and not fanboy-ish.

I like linux much much more for servers and as a set of system idioms. But its Desktop side is plagued by all sorts of long-standing problems, including low quality software that breaks itself regularly or has unfixable “nuances” reasoned from buggy to delusional. The base GNU/Linux system is absolutely fine and stable and reliable (software-wise). But you can think of Modern Linux Desktop as a sort a slap-over patch that isn’t Linux spirited at all.

And when you point these out, the happy welcoming tone often changes from “it just works” to “you get what you paid for, feel free to patch” then to “it’s their project, they are free to reject patches”, then to just crickets.
It matters whether you are still on an unpaid tenancy or have upgraded to a paid tenancy, even if you're only using "Always Free" resources for a total of $0.00 per month. Resources occupied by an unpaid tenancy may be deallocated without warning in order to satisfy a request from a paid tenancy. However, there's really no way we can know if the OP did or did not breach the TOS, which seems likelier given that they underline they were a paying customer.

Trump did this last time too. Is there a difference in the level of preparedness in archiving data compared to last time? If so, in what way is it different? Is there institutional or independent preparedness?
It doesn't matter why. All that matters is that "current" is not a valid word. Old things exist in "current" systems. And current systems may also be old systems.
No, but you could only expect this.

Nobody wants castles anymore because they’re impractical and difficult to maintain. It’s not some sort of taboo or psychological block, it’s entirely practical.

Actually, the fact that people think castles are cool suggests that the going price for them is higher than their concrete utility would make it, since demand would be boosted by people who want a castle because it’s cool.

Did these guys have some special use case where it made sense, or did they think they were the only ones smart enough to see that it’s actually worth buying?
The core is the President is kept from becoming a dictator by nothing more than norms. If Trump staffs the military with loyalists, there isn’t much anyone can do to make him do anything. Most other countries have power over the military, particularly in domestic contexts, much more shattered.

I also think this is a good summary for those who had never heard of Weimar before: https://archive.is/xh2Ci

But like most summaries, it suffers a bit from focusing on the key events, and not capturing this sort of ... change in the ambient noise floor, and what relationship the average citizen had to what was going on, and what perception of events. I think it's the "Would you have been able to tell that it'd get this bad?" is kind of the more interesting part. A political weather forecasting model, if you will.

What is wrong with being reappointed to the same job for 22 years? What if she's just...competent? Your argument seems to be that anyone having the same job for that long must be corrupt in some way, but you don't provide anything to support that premise.

It directly addresses "How much does that matter? All currently supported releases at least."
"Spoke clearly that they wanted $X" != "Didn't take the opportunity to express any opinion."

Those are fundamentally different.
I'd argue that's actually the lowlight of the README since that is a very poor choice of benchmark. Combining a multitude of versions of the same software massively favors an algorithm good at dealing with this kind of repetitiveness in a way that will not be seen in typical applications.

The "Corpus benchmarks" further down in the README are IMHO much more practically relevant. The compression ratio of bzip3 is not significantly better, but the runtime seems quite a bit lower than lzma at least.
Your about tells me you could make this comment way more specifically and with evidence.
That group has already retired. The retirement age for ATC is 56, so a 55 year old still working today would have been 11 in 1981. Certainly they were not hired at that time.
Many rationalists do consider themselves leftist. Many others do not. It's a big tent and anyone can wander in.
I keep seeing comments that no relative position was given but ATC does provide detail in their initial communications, though not subsequent.

This is wrong in so many ways and the author doesn't understand difference between various options of removing packages. Or the concept of virtual package names.

Think Apple are well aware they got a bit of a raw deal with OpenAI but it was the only option on the table. Their weekness and pure stupidity with Siri became a massive elephant in the room the second chatgpt was released, and then once people saw the advanced voice mode it just made it all that more obvious how crap Apple were at AI assistants.

I dare say in 5 years time they'll be up there but for now they're heavily reliant on OpenAI to provide any guise of them having anything to offer.

Show HN: Diffusion Studio (YC F24) – Webcodecs powered video rendering engine
Hey HN,
For nearly two years, I’ve been building an AI-native solution for programmatic video editing after running into the many limitations of FFmpeg when automating content creation.

The result is @diffusionstudio/core – a browser-based video editing engine powered by WebCodecs. The library is almost entirely written from scratch, with just a single dependency (49KB gzip).

Since rendering and encoding happen mostly on the GPU, client-side, it’s blazingly fast. And with no need for backend rendering infrastructure, integration into any website is simple and lightweight.

One ed-tech startup used it to turn study materials into engaging videos and scaled to $200K MRR in just 9 months using the engine.

Some of its key features are:

- Video/Audio Clipping
- Engaging Captions
- Waveform Visualization
- Shapes & Overlays
- Keyframe Animations

Would love for you to check it out and hack away with it!

What about the meta-metaphors of a literal "american airline" full of civilians minding its own business and following the rules and then literally t-boned by an american war machine. Also, they were leaving Dwight D. Eisenhower airport in Kansas. Eisenhower, the supreme commander of allied forces in WW2 who warned against the "military industrial complex". Wichita has so many air-related industries there that it was once known as the "Air capital of the world" and it's still its primary industry.

There's probably also something there about the fact that the plane was a Canadian one (Bombardier) whose name means "the guy releasing the bombs in a bomber". And also, the Bombardier company was started by a guy just trying to get people around (mass transit) in the winter time (via the first good snowmobiles B7, B12 - powered by american-made engines from Ford/Chrysler). And the helicopter was from a US company started by a Russian immigrant (Sikorsky) who immigrated to the US to escape the Russian Revolution after making bombers (that hold bombardiers) in WW1. And the helicopter crashed into a river, Potomac, named after the Algonquian word for a native american city and was itself named after a native american war chief (Black Hawk) that fought alongside the Canadians/British in the war of 1812 (where the white house and capitol were set on fire) to "push away white settlers". The helicopter left a fort (Fort Belvoir) named after a former slave plantation. The airfield it departed was named after a WW2 aviation engineer (Davison) and where Army One, the helicopter that carried Eisenhower, used to be based. In addition to the Black Hawks, the airfield is also home to 4 cessnas used in civilian air patrol - made in Wichita.

> If you halt disease research, there's a greater chance of a pandemic

To clarify, there is greater chance of natural pandemic. The chance of man made pandemic goes down or disappears entirely though. I don't know how to properly weigh the pros and cons there, especially without know likely top secret details of what biological weapons research is ongoing.

> but we have eliminated smallpox

We have a definitional disagreement here. My understanding is that diseases are classified and diagnosed by symptom, not by severity of the symptoms. That would be especially tricky as everyone will have a different reaction to the pathogen or condition and the same underlying cause could present with more or less severity.

If you consider smallpox eliminated because disease with a similar severity is no longer present then we likely have to consider Covid eliminated as well, I don't think many would agree that it is though. People still test positive for CoV-2 and are diagnosed with Covid based on symptoms, it just isn't nearly as deadly or severe for most of the population now.

> Mpox is not just a strain of smallpox that became less virulent over time

Maybe I'm being pedantic here, apologies if that it. My understanding, though, is that monkeypox and smallpox are/were diagnosed by symptom and rarely or never diagnosed by isolating and identifying the virus in patients. Monkeypox and smallpox have very similar symptoms, meaning they could very well be considered the same disease even if they are believed to be caused by two different viruses.

Xcode gives me such a hard time that I started considering writing in Kotlin for macOS, just to have a normal IDE. We used to have AppCode (from JetBrains) and it was great. I wonder why Apple didn't support JetBrains, after all, it would have been to Apple's benefit.
Where did Trump promise to remove Phyllis Fong? Or something less specific that would translate to this? He promised to lower egg prices, and "the majority of the few people voted for Trump, so any random thing he now does is what THE AMERICAN PEOPLE wanted" is just not true.

And even if it was, to me the question isn't "did someone else want this at some point in the past, probably based on false or even no information" anyway, but how to judge it now. Sometimes people want wrong things for shitty reasons and a minority has to stand up to them standing on their principles.
