Regarding b) there's a term "advocating for one's health" and yes, doctors are fully aware of it.

>> you can probably exceed the knowledge of your doctor about your specific condition.

It depends on the doctor. That's why in the US patients first see a general practitioner, then are referred to a specialist. I've met some less knowledgeable doctors for my condition, but I don't discredit them for it. It's a difficult profession.

Plus "doing research on your own" is not a bad idea, but if one deep dives and starts believing ivermectin cures everything, well, I'd say they did poor research, and poor research can be worse than listening to a doctor.

Did we read the same article?
The questions you posit have an easy answer: you’re wrong and you’re creating a false narrative.

No one is saying that being overweight is healthy. Most of those social campaigns were saying that we shouldn’t shame people for their body.

Also, plenty of studies have shown that weight control isn’t as simple as self control. Different people have different bodies that react differently, and plenty of people have other conditions that limit their ability to control weight.

Gaining weight is easy, and losing it is hard. The body evolved to treat a caloric deficit as literally painful. And losing significant weight requires months or years of deficit, which is months or years of pain. That’s tough to overcome with “a little bit of hard work and self control”.

Anecdotally, I’m a perfect example of this. I used to be a runner, and thin. Then I got sick, and my BMI doubled in months. It’s taken at least a year to undo months of illness. I can’t imagine what someone with chronic illness, or even more weight must go through. I live in a city and walk instead of drive, but not everyone has that lifestyle and it’s not a easy thing to change (“why don’t you just move a long way away to an expensive place and sell your car”). Of course, you should not require someone to do everything just right on paper for their views to be valid. Plenty of people struggle with the motivation, time, or finances to make healthy decisions, and those people are real and should be supported too.

It’s been studied and proven ad nauseam that food can be addictive and that addictions aren’t a matter of “self control” the way people want it to be.

> I think this post underestimates how the degree to which “what data is correct” is deeply contextual.

I can't get anyone to listen to this point. I'm seeing plans going full steam ahead deploying AI when they don't even have a good definition of the PROBLEM much less how to train the AI to do things well and correctly. I was in a 90 minute meeting with some execs who were all high on ChatGPT Operators. He was saying we could replace 80 people at this company RIGHT NOW with this tool. I asked the presenter to type in one simple request to the AI, the entire demo went wildly off the rails from then on and the presenter wasn't even remotely bothered by that. People are either completely taken in by the marketing and believe like it's a religion, or they have solid, sensible concerns about reliability. But the number of people in category 2 is a smaller number than the true believers.
The data are public! Why don't you show it?
It's like the ship of Theseus for me. If all of the parts are swapped out, is it the same ship? I don't know, that's interesting to think about. But if all of the parts are essentially the same but worse for wear, with a shittier captain, is it the same ship? Yes, it's still Twitter.

You have removed a constraint from the original problem. What could have happened does not matter since we are being asked about what did happen.

Imagine two people playing a game of chess. Various moves are played. Then you are asked a question about the state of the board. The answer depends on the state of the board. It does not depend on the set of all states the board could have taken had one player made different choices.
My layman’s understanding, based solely on the quote you cited, is that it criticizes books for not providing proper instruction — being just pupils, readers need a tutor. The only way this could relate to programming libraries being reused is if people didn’t even read the books back then, much like they don’t read the libraries' source code right now.

I’m by no means agreeing with the quote, nor am I against reusing programming libraries carelessly; I just don’t see how the two are related.
Works well because almost all interaction is low-bandwidth low-latency duplex text streams. You can make a lot of assumptions based on that.
One of the benefits of using thinking tokens compared to “thinking in a latent” space is that you can directly observe the quality of the CoT. In R1 they saw it was mixing languages and fixed it with cold start data.

It would be hard to SFT this because you can only SFT the final result not the latent space.

I also notice the authors only had compute for a single full training run. It’s impressive they saw such good results from that, but I wonder if they could get better results by incorporating recent efficiency improvements.

I would personally not use this architecture because 1) it adds a lot of hyperparameters which don’t have a strong theoretical grounding and 2) it’s not clearly better than simpler methods.
I'm a big fan of Attia and familiar with his work. That's fair that excess calories is among the major contributors to Healthcare and addressing that would probably be among the largest impact items we ought to tackle.

I wonder though if with the advent of GLP1 drugs, if obesity may already be a solved problem, but merely a matter of time?

I imagine, as with anything, perfect doesn't need to be the enemy of good enough. A huge multifaceted issue like obesity could be addressed from many angles.

If it’s not installed by default on server-oriented flavours of Linux then it’s dead to me, unfortunately. Most orgs aren’t going to agree to roll it out across tens of thousands of machines on a whim.

>Wouldn’t the desired sample size depend on the size of the population itself?

No, The most important thing is the distribution of the sample size. You have to make sure it isn't obviously biased in some way (i.e You're only surveying students in a university for extrapolation on the entire population of the country). Beyond that, the desired sample size levels off quickly.

5000 (assuming the same distribution) won't be any more or less accurate for 10M than it is for 1M.

Of course, if you just ask everyone or almost everyone then you no longer need to worry about distribution but yeah
How much of it is tied up to a criminally overvalued Tesla stock though?

Sure, Tesla could go to zero and he'd still be a fabulously wealthy man, but with how things are moving - It wouldn't surprise me that he's about the fall down the ranks. Let's see how much power he has once the "richest man in the world" aura fades away.

I’ve read a few of those “math is racist” takes and I feel a lot of them make decent points about why math education is lacking in the US.

But the ties to racism do seem inane and more to do with outrage culture becoming the norm after the social media explosion. It’s unfortunate.

> Even when something isn't a galactic algorithm "how well it maps to being done efficiently in real hardware with hardware sized data sizes" is more and more often the important bit over "slightly better bounds at infinity"

You're just repeating the same claim. Why is that more and more often then important bit? Why is it more important now? Why are these factors not captured in complexity analysis?

For instance, some complexity analysis assumes random access memory of arbitrary size, but memory above a certain size is better modelled with logarithmic access time. But this too can be captured in complexity analysis, so it's not really evidence of any divergence.

And then you have cache-oblivious data structures that scale uniformly across all cache sizes, which is a product of complexity analysis.

So I'm asking for what exactly is being meant with a justification of why you think this matters now more than it did before.
It's a private entity. The duty is to investors, and they're welcome to file a lawsuit if they disagree - all depends on the agreement(s) they made.

Not accepting external offers to purchase startups is fairly normal. And "we don't like the new overlords" is also a fairly normal reason for refusing said offers.

I'm building a simple version with horizontally scalable app servers that each use LISTEN/NOTIFY on the database. The article says this will lead to problems and you'll need PubSub services, but I was hoping LISTEN/NOTIFY would easily scale to hundreds of concurrent users. Please let me know if that won't work ;)

Some context: The use case is a digital whiteboard like Miro and the heaviest realtime functionality will be tracking all of the pointers of all the users updating 5x per second. I'm not expecting thousands/millions of users as I'm planning on running each instance of the software on-prem.
I get what you are saying but what if the amount of breakthroughs by people that did know about what came before was orders of magnitude higher than this number, would that change your mind?
I think the most common diminutive in English preceding the word with the word "little". This is not a suffix but is used in much the same ways as diminutive suffixes are used in other latin languages.

"little bear" and "little johnny" would both be quite natural phrases.

The iMac turned so many gizmos into various fruity colors that there was just no hope for color coordinating them. Our HP DeskJet with translucent blue accents didn't match the Compaq Presario next to it one bit, nor did it match the graphite gray iMac that did eventually make it into our house. So many minitowers of that period had a half-assed splash of color on an otherwise beige box, too.

Apple did a good job at it, I still like looking at their fruity period all these years later, but man, the imitators were ugly af.

My previous company consultant would google a lot, almost being paid to learn. Because the state of art is constantly moving. And a lot of contributions were mostly a conversation with senior team members to tie in with what they also thought was better moving forward. So you could definitely do it
The rates are believable, but this seems somewhat different from what the thread is about - compensation in tokens rather than equity. I suspect many an engineer who's OK with crypto work in general will balk at this arrangement.

EDIT: I reread the original comment. It technically makes sense, but still I think answers a different question than the one posed about the compensation model.

reCAPTCHA (and others based outside of EU) is illegal on privacy ground (in any site, not just owned by EU entities). Homebrew CAPTCHAs are illegal due to their general lack of accessibility (in any site owned by an EU entity), and in Bulgaria their gratuitous use is banned in government sites on account of them being poor UX (not enforced unless caught during the acceptance phase of a project).

An example of an inaccessible homebrew CAPTCHA that causes very poor UX can be found on the portal that provides access to the legal acts of the Bulgarian judicial system: https://legalacts.justice.bg/ . Try taking the legal system to court. I tried for this one, you can see for yourself how it went.
No one said they were "tricked" by the article, only that the found the headline to be misleading which is entirely fair because it is a clear example of clickbait.

So this is a play to mess with the restructuring?

Why aren't the news stories exploring this angle? It's very annoying that this comes below the regurgitated press releases and asinine Twitter quotes. Reuters didn't even mention it. The Guardian just barely touches on it.
Oh thank God, I was about to post something very similar. I have to reactions here, the first is the most charitable (but honestly feels like a huge stretch) and the other is what I believe.

Charitable: Perhaps the concern here is the use of private-sector tools rather than abuse of a government agency. I don't think that really makes sense, but it's at least possible. It would be a bizarrely naive take, even for The Guardian.

Realistic: The Guardian is a left-wing tabloid, and like much of the left-of-center media in the UK is obsessed with Israel for... reasons. Well I should say that their readership is at least, and the media provides. The Guardian is very much in it for the money, so if they can get "Trump" and "Israel" in the same headline as much as possible, they will make more money.
He swerves in and out of liberal ideology saying "it could happen, but it's not currently; it could happen, but it's not some global conspiracy"

He lost me in the digressions to the facts. I agree he presented facts but he really seems like he's trying to scratch the debanking itch while just saying it hasn't happened yet and if it does happen it's because you're electing liberals (again).

I appreciate people who respond deeply to facts, but can find fault in the examples he finds to justify the paranoid he's apparently trying to quell.
Considering the threat of his wealth and the ability to fund primary challengers against sitting senators is being used to whip their votes, I wouldn't restrict the it to just "financial" terrorist.
People really struggle with things that have measurable, probabilistic effects. You see it with healthcare ("Steve smoked his whole life and never got cancer, so cigarettes aren't bad for you!"), environmental effects ("Alice was poor and she didn't rob anyone, so poverty is no excuse!"), hiring ("Charlie is a great employee and he had no experience, so you should never look at backgrounds!"), etc.

It should be a general standard of proof for any sort of sociological claim that you look at rates, not just examples, but it usually isn't.
So you have a chronic health issue
That would require the death of social media.
You can’t. But if population A and population B share a ancestor X years ago, and they also speak languages that appear to have drifted apart by X many years, the inference that their ancestor spoke a common proto-language is the simplest explanation.
> seems a step in the right direction

I can’t see why. I can’t think of any problems where recurrent loops with latent streams would be preferable to tokens. And the downsides are obvious.

> externally specifying the number of recurrent iterations

Yeah this seems wrong to me. At least with RL training you saw that the length of the CoT decreased dramatically before climbing again, as the model became more proficient.
Sucks to hear about the internships. I figured they'd still be relevant as I was mentoring people in an internship pipeline just 5 years ago, but a lot has changed since then. I do wonder how the effects graduation rates, as one of the reason we had so many interns at my previous job was because the local engineering school required an internship to graduate.

You're right though, shit is fucked. I didn't want to say that and have the person in our conversation thread get even more disheartened - that isn't helpful to them. But I agree with you and my experience job hunting just last year mirrors what you are saying. I've been thinking of what I'd do if I got laid off and well, sounds like it won't be a good time.
I agree with you - also because most of the activities described in the post can be turned around where the SaaS wraps a LLM around specific tasks to augment data (e.g. call transcription, summarisation and preparation for the next meeting).

As an industry, we have been through a textual user interface already: terminals, and we moved away from that.

And voice UIs are not new either: we have had voice assistant for quite some time now, and they didn't see the success Apple, Google or Amazon were expecting (recently it came out that most of echo use cases were about setting timers).
