I was this close to picking up the PhD route in applied mathematics for science and engineering. I took up a job in a map company, "just for the time being" and not commit to the "Finite Element Method" or something around "Port Hamiltonian Systems" for 4-5 years straight, without knowing if it will find any applications in the real world.

8 years on, I'm still in the same map company along with 3-4 others who have joined after or mid-way their PhDs (and some more who didn't bother) and we do routing for hundreds of customers and basically have everything a PhD group has, including Seasonal Seminars on Routing Algorithms.

Finite element Method is not as exciting as AI (I used to think at some point that it would) and Port Hamiltonian Systems is something not a lot of people talk about, except maybe Dr. Volker Mehrmann and his group :)

Academia is not for the faint hearted and a PhD isn't just about research anymore. It's just a low paying job now, sadly. I still say things like "if I ever happen to go back to academia", as if I did a lot there. But I am an academic at heart, just that pursuing a PhD didn't certify it any better or seem to provide more freedom for exploring my passion for studies or a particular topic.

Sadly unsurprising, given the witch-hunt nature of recent cuts – Emily Riehl's been a big source of mentorship and inspiration for women in mathematics, and she's been pretty vocal about it. The point is to make a show of stamping out "DEI" for a headline, and to hope that no one looks too closely at the details.

I have lots of customer files and I've looked around with all these AI tools for something, paid or self hosted or whatever, where I point it to a folder with xlsx and pdf and then I can query "Whats the end date or M Smith contract" or "How much does M Smith still owe" and I've been very disappointed by that, it's either very complicated, or they break down with non text based pdf, or...

It feels to me that if you need to provide schema and preprocess the data and this and that at the end all AI provide is a way to do some SQL in natural language, meaning yes it's better but it doesn't remove the actual pain point if you're a tech user.

Then again maybe I'm wrong, didn't find the right tool or didn't understand it.

Is what I'm looking for something that actually exists (and works, not just on simple cases)?
either that or the browser is the new OS, as people keep saying.

It took years after I learned the Kalman Filter as a student, until I actually intuitively understood the update of the covariances. Most learning sources (including the OP) just mechanically go through the computations of the a-posterior covariance, but don't bother with an intuition other than "this is the result of multiplying two gaussians", if anything at all.

I wrote down a note for myself where I work this out, if anyone is interested: https://postbits.de/kalman-measurement-update.html
> Finds metal shavings in new engine. Touts it as sabotage without explaining further.

You sound very disingenuous. If you one day find a dump of metal shavings in a freshly assembled and validated engine, and the only possible and conceivable way those could be found in there is if someone goes way out of their way to purposely dump them in there, how would you have describe that?
It seem that someone already published different quanta versions of the model [1] . This can be used to define Modelfile to use with ollama locally. But I am not sure that zed allows changing the endpoint of this feature yet (ever). Of course it is opeb source and you can change it but then you will need to build it.

I'd agree that on a personal level, vigilance and discipline are important to minimize bloat.

On a collective level - you need courage and love and vigilance and discipline.

You need the courage to go hey, Bill Gates - you are ruining our industry and since I love humanity - I will oppose your kind. I will use my courage to speak up and fight against evil.

Our industry isn't lacking in people who can sit down and write good code. It is severely lacking in people who have courage and love to benefit more than just themselves.

What really bugs me as an onlooker is that I thought the constitution specified gun ownership precisely to prevent tyrannical governments (e.g. the English) and yet now there appears to be developing exactly that.
> have any idea what to do about it

They could start with:

1) Peaceful protest, and

2) Boycotting anything related to Musk, Trump and anyone that bends a knee. (When that's literally impossible, as in "I have to buy food somewhere", pick the least bad)

Simple, but inconvenient. Better to make excuses and hope someone else fixes the problem at no cost to me.
I think they recognize the "not sure" by various users giving different answers.
The firehose of money won't go away, but you can bet dollars to donuts that it will be redirected right towards a spoils system, where the administration's friends and supporters will be reaping the rewards of victory.

Why are you manually indenting code?

I don't remember ever doing that in IDEA or VS Code for ~~python,~~ java or ts.

Edit: I borked about python, my bad.
Agree, not much insight. Since it was Pike, I started curiously, just to realise that there was not much about what to do about the issue, other than a superficial “choose dependencies wisely”. The doc had already ended :(
AI Kissing Video Generator enables users to create animated kiss videos by uploading one or two photos. The AI processes the images to generate lifelike facial movements, creating a seamless and romantic kiss animation.

In no uncertain terms, the only guideline I've violated as far as I'm aware is the one stipulating no political battles. As far as that, I defer to your judgment with one contention: Everyone else who were and are also engaging in that behaviour should be similarly reprimanded.

As I've written in my email, I've noticed a significant uptick in political threads and subthreads over the past month for fairly obvious reasons. If you are that adamant about the guideline, and that is your right, I hope you police all such (sub)threads much more vigorously in the future.

In closing, I'm just sad at the true colors of this community. I take supporting racism personally as a Japanese-American, and all the other positions like supporting fraud, wanton waste, and selective enforcement of laws (aka social justice) are downright absurd. We will inevitably have differences in our beliefs, but I expected better from a community of hackers and entrepreneurs/investors who would presumably support liberal (libre) values and fiscal responsibility.
Most people consider anything they don't like to be a waste of public funds. After all, they pay for the government through taxes, so it should serve only their needs. People in America do not view the government as a source for public good, but merely a piggy bank from which they should be able to extract funds. Just look at the student loan forgiveness crowd. I'm perfectly happy paying my dues, but a lot of people have decided that they want the government to give them a load of free money instead of using it for something productive.
By pure coincidence they released this 2 days ago:

This is just "reds under the bed" bullshit again. Reconsider.
Writing good software requires principles, and having them means standing behind them when they're tested. I've seen legacy code cleaned to wonderful standard and operation and greenfield projects immediately fold into spaghetti. It starts and ends with us.
I am just supposing, but have not checked, that if they change the text they must also change the DOM by at least changing the lang attribute on nodes affected, meaning probably the lang attribute on the html element, but could also be a lang attribute on each element wrapping a textNode.

on edit: I figured the article must have said something about this and I missed it, and yes, it shows that the DOM is changed to be lang="nl" on the html element, which means obviously if React rerenders but does not rerender the HTML element (which many React applications do not control) then the language would be out of sync, of course.

Hector seems to both have the right intentions but also an inflammatory tone in discussions that makes it challenging to support his points.
Based on your description, you're using NAT as a means to bypass network restrictions. It's a great hack that will do the trick wonderfully, but if that's the officially proposed solution then the network is not set up for what it's actually used for.

Contrary to popular belief, IPv6 does have NAT, it's just stupid and unnecessary in most use cases. There are even different kinds of NAT; there's the "swap the public prefix with a private one" NAT (useful for shit ISPs that rotate your IPv6 prefix to make you pay extra for a static one, so your addresses don't keep changing), or the IPv4-like "masquerade all traffic when forwarding" one that'll work in your weird enterprise network.

With the latter option, you can set up an IPv6 with DHCPv6 on the upstream and whatever combination of SLAAC or DHCP you want on the VM side, and set up NAT using guides like this (possibly outdated iptables-based) one: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=298878
<< It's delusional to think either of them are agents of anyone but themselves.

It is hard to understate this. I had odd conversations with both sides ( I am in a weird spot, because since I come from the old country, two party US system is edit: not internalized as a good way to describe leanings ) of US political spectrum and somehow both sides tend to miss it or rationalize it away ( edited ).

If we agree that Trump/Musk represent some sort of threat to the system, then it is not because of conviction or some deep held belief they hold. What they believe is just what happens to benefit them at a time. That is almost the entirety of their positions. That, honestly, is the part that should be a concern.

Everything else is just posturing.
There is a podcast and blackhat? video about Nvidia choosing SPARK over Rust. Not because of formal verification at all but because it is a more developed prospect and offers better security even without any formal verification. This isn't mentioned but Ada is also far better at modelling registers or even network packets.

I might consider AI if it utilised SPARKs gnat prove but I wouldn't usw AI otherwise.
Sure, but in some cases it's also a great way to become very very wealthy.

It entirely depends on your personality and circumstances, it's certainly not for everyone.
They use backend configurable at environment variable ZED_PREDICT_EDITS_URL https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/2f734cbd5e2452647... , but I don't know if the /predict_edits/v2 endpoint is something some projects provide or not.

At least the model is available and interacting with it seems simple, so it's probably quite realistic to have an open/locally runnable version of it. The model isn't very big.
No. I think a lot of people would notice. Especially string players.

A lot of orchestra musicians don't like listening to recordings that deviate too much from their preferred concert pitch. I don't like listening to British or American recording where a equals 440 or some old German ones at 445-446. That is less than 20 cents.
There’s an unbelievable opportunity for other countries to pick up world class U.S researchers.

The next four years all countries need to do is offer the research funding and citizenship and university positions and entirely new industries and centers of knowledge could be created.
I'm going to assume good faith here. Yesterday they just asked congress for $4.3 trillion in deficit spending (debt increase) to fund tax cuts for the people who pay the lowest taxes already. The majority of government spending is on defense, which hasn't been auditable in decades. You're either wildly misinformed, or trolling.
Not really. The idea of the constitution is that the US government is elected and therefore can't be tyrannical. The purpose of the 2nd amendment is almost certainly to maintain a force for the defence of the country against invasion. It's entirely obsolete now that America has a standing army.
If they're not routed directly through the network card but use a virtual switch instead, the network upstream only sees the server MAC. If they're directly hooked into the network card they can have their own MACs, but that approach can make it hard to communicate between host and VM.
I worked on this a bit 1-2 years ago. Back then, LLMs weren't really up to the task, but I found them OK for suggestions that a human double checks. Brings us to the Ironies of Automation though (human oversight of automation with a review process doesn't really work, it's a paper worth reading).

We tried several dedicated services for extracting structured data and factoids like that from documents: First Google Document AI, then a dedicated provider focusing solely on our niche. Back then, that gave the best results.

There wasn't enough budget to go deeper into this and we just reverted to doing it manually. But I think a really cool way to do this would be to make a user friendly UI where they can see suggestions and the text snippets they were extracted from as they skim through the document, with a simple way to modify and accept these. I think that'd work to scale the process quite a bit. Focusing the attention of the human at the relevant parts of the document basically.

Haven't worked on this space since then, but I'm pretty bearish on fully automated fact extraction. Getting stuff in contracts and invoices wrong is typically not acceptable. I think a solid human in the loop approach is probably still the way to go.

So being inclusive and introducing new people who have not been exposed to e.g. advanced mathematics is a bad thing?

What are you even talking about? I guess we are now in the phase where people just make sh*t up, but don't pretend you care about children, we have seen how you all defended Gaetz an actual pedophile.

I found https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/2f734cbd5e2452647... which leads me to believe the environment variable ZED_PREDICT_EDITS_URL does control the endpoint.

I don't see how the captured settlements indicate any better progress.

Avdiivka, the "greatest success" of 2024, was a small town with pre-invasion population of 32 000, less than 5 miles of the frontline on day 1 of the invasion in 2022. Avdiivka was literally visible from the windows of high-rise apartment buildings in Russian-occupied Donetsk. It took three years to get there.

All other listed are even smaller: Vuhledar 14 000, Kurakhove 5000. By now they are heaps of rubble where no-one lives. Compared to the capture of Crimea, which did not cost any lives and left Crimea intact, how is losing 400 000+ a year for such places not a total disaster?

They're going to outlaw Lisp because it's homoiconic, is associated with the greek letter lambda, and talks with a queer accent.
There's no scientific evidence that adults can learn absolute pitch with anywhere near the accuracy of people who've had it from a young age, despite a lot of testing. The article we're talking about is a negative result with that respect

I'd love to see any controlled experiment indicating its possible, but every study has turned up a negative here. People can learn pseudo absolute pitch, but its not the same thing
Therefore, I prefer svelte (besides superior ergonomics & web-standards compliance): It's not a framework, but a compiler that outputs only pure JS. Svelte simply has no virtual DOM that can be messed up. Just Simplicity & efficiency.
I thought that WASI and the component model were separate specs. Am I wrong?
> If you hire a driver, or use a taxi, offer to pay the driver to take you to visit their mother. They will ordinarily jump at the chance. They fulfill their filial duty and you will get easy entry into a local’s home, and a very high chance to taste some home cooking. Mother, driver, and you leave happy. This trick rarely fails.

Never tried this so I may be biased but in Japan I can hardly imagine this work out more than one out of ten times.

Other than that many great advices. Looking forward to try the laser out and no reservation ones someday.
> I'm aware of the article's context but that just raises further questions. Why invest much effort, as a developer, or as a vendor, in a version of WASM that doesn't even let you run client side? It's carving an ever smaller niche.

Because of the value it can deliver server-side, and that's where most of the value tends to be.

Server-side compute is the core of most companies' revenue streams, yet it really is bloating out of control. Think about how much money is wasted on build pipelines, artifact storage, giant image distribution, multi-tenant workload isolation, supply chain risk mitigation; how expensive cloud infrastructure is, and what a substantial share of it is spent on all of those. With the way WASM was designed, it has the potential to completely upend all of it: tiny binaries, sandboxed runtimes, tightly knit mt, instant scaling, clearly defined contracts, language agnostic microservices. It's a completely different world.

The potential for WASM in enterprise compute is immense - especially with the recent developments in the component model and WASI. We're talking about orders of magnitude improvements here.
That's interesting.

How do you enforce a contract on these WASI artefacts? How do you stop the user doing bad things (like infinite loops or crashing the surrounding program)?
I’ve heard Miguel Hernán’s “What If” is also excellent, but not got round to reading it.
I agree with his issues with dependencies.

But I'm not sure about his other stuff.

"Avoid features that add disproportionate cost"

I expect part of the problem here is that it's often not clear what the value of features until it's available to customers.

Even the costs of bloat are unclear. Take his bank website example. Do we really think many bank customers are choosing banks based on their website's latency? Banks compete on things users actually care about, like interest rates or fees.

Lots of software inevitably won't meet our ideal standards, because given the cost of developers it's not worth doing things The Right Way.
And to seek convoluted ways to describe actual work around words the trolls understand.

Why didn’t she put something about working at a soup kitchen into her grant proposal? I guess because working at a soup kitchen doesn’t in any way qualify her for a grant. But she did put information about “services” at a DEI board, probably because that information can help get her a grant.

What would you think if most approved grants started with “I am a rich white man”? Surely that wouldn’t be the exact reason why the grant was given. But why would that even be in a grant proposal? What if many approved grants contained “I preside over a board of Aryan math”? Would that be totally fine and not slippery?
