Oh my, a Dutch film that actually sounds good?! I get to watch a movie that's originally in my native language for perhaps the second time in my life, thanks for linking this :D

Edit: and it's on YouTube in full! Was wondering which streaming service I'd have to buy for this niche genre of Dutch sci-fi but that makes life easy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VrLQXR7mKU

Final update: well, that was certainly special. Favorite moment was 10:26–10:36 ^^. Don't think that comes fully across in the baked-in subtitles in English though. Overall it could have been an episode of Dark Mirror, just shorter. Thanks again for the tip :)
I've often wondered about how even with Legos it's very difficult to create perfectly aligned little passages running diagonally in such structures.

> Nowhere in the First Amendment, or anywhere in the Bill of Rights (or later amendments), does it state, or even imply, that the First Amendment is only applicable to US citizens and permanent residents.

The Second Amendment does ("... the right of the People ..."). And the Fourteenth Amendment specifically refers to people "subject to the jurisdiction" of the U.S.

The Fifth and Sixth Amendments are taken to apply to all persons in the U.S., citizens, residents, and otherwise, even though they say nothing of the sort.

If one wished to say that the 2A's mention of "the People" implies that the other amendments don't apply to foreigners, that would have perverse results such as denying all due process to foreigners. The contrary is true. Therefore the other protections do apply to foreigners except for the fact that foreigners can be expelled, and there is no protection against that (in principle not even due process protections against removal except as granted by statute).

The Constitution is not just what's written on it but what the courts have said in their interpretations. I'm quite sure that the 1A does not protect foreigners against removal for their speech is not controversial in legal circles as a statement of actual jurisprudence.

Until you define "actual intelligence" and how the (human) brain produces it, it is nonsense to state that a "prediction model" is not "actual intelligence".

It's just a form of the no true Scotsman fallacy.

This line of thinking is also very closely related to the similarly misguided Chinese Room thought experiment by Searle. "It just inputs and outputs symbols" (or "it just predicts the next word") misses the enormous wealth of complexity that goes into how to get from input to output and just handwaving it away is intellectual poverty.

With regard to the rate of progress and potential: Don't forget that the biological difference between humans and animals is tiny, yet the difference in ("actual") intelligence is enormous. This is not to say that LLMs (and its offspring) are guaranteed to only need small tweaks, but it very well might suffice to reach AGI as you would define it.

Sidenote: Stop using the word "techbro". It is sexist, polarizing, and childish. Just because they're the bad guys doesn't make it okay.
> It's the US that's isolating itself. Canada isn't 'cornered'. It has the entire rest of the world to talk to and make deals with.

Yes, but any of those deals will pale in comparison to the opporunities Canada has with the wealthiest next door neighbor in the world. The oceans aren't nothing, the culture differences aren't nothing (no matter how small you try to make them with other Commonwealth countries).

Losing the US as a friend is a massive loss, and nothing will match it.
>Games aren't manufacturing

Yes it is if you're EA, Ubisoft, Microsoft, Sony, etc. The executives there run the game making like factories.

>Studios can try, but no one is going to make Elder Scrolls VI feel like ES6 except Bethesda's team, design, and tech.

What Bethesda quality you mean? This? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0R_WcU-hsY

The original Bethesda staff that worked on your favorite franchises doesn't work there anymore, they all retired or moved on to greener pastures and the studio, just like EA, Ubisoft, etc is full of clueless underpaid and overworked juniors that don't have the skills or eye for detail the original staff had. Here the Chinese and Koreans will eat you alive.

>Games also aren't zero sum either.

No, but the hours in a days is a zero sum. People have the same free time after school/work to play games, this doesn't grow with the market. So they have to carefully pick what games they'll spend their time and money on. And if it's between some Western slop or an Asian game that's better and cheaper, they'll pick the latter. The more competitive the gaming market is by international players, the more western game studios will be squeezed out.
Is this some kind of fake AI written article? I'm skimming along and see a passage:

Recent theoretical and experimental studies have produced
several unusual and interesting results on the cold fusion
of matter experienced on dense lithium [24]. The existence
of this exciting propriety of matter relates to zero-point
energy estimates that suggest quantum effects play a
significant role in shaping the phase diagram of lithium.

From the beginning of the abstract it looked like this might be an interesting article, but the probability is basically zero that a genuine advance in stone-structure-tomography for giant structures would include such an aside on "cold fusion" and "zero-point energy".

I've been following this for years and am somewhat ambivalent to either outcome.

I feel the need to warn anyone reading that this is an overwrought reaction to an overwrought reaction to a, well, very opinionated take.

There's a reason why there's 5 papers as refutations, and no one will even go on the record, even just for a news article that'll play well to general public grousing, to even devil's advocate for the original paper

I'm glad institutions have and are taking their time with this, to the point we're being steadily brought along, publicly, as we investigate the possibilities and perhaps even discover new things along the way.
For folks outside of the United States - this is the level of stupid we're dealing with here. I'm just glad I'm old enough to remember when the United States was actually great, great because of strong democratic institutions, civic duty, and excellent engineering.
>Privacy rights advocacy group Noyb is supporting an individual in Norway who was horrified to find ChatGPT returning made-up information that claimed he’d been convicted for murdering two of his children and attempting to kill the third.

What does Noyb hope to achieve with such lawsuits? The result of victory here would just be yet another vector for regulators to increase control over and/or impose censorship on LLM creators, as well as creating sources of "liability" for open source AI developers, which would be terrible for actual privacy.

Interestingly, there is no mention whatsoever of either "Durov" or "Telegram" on the Noyb website, even though the arrest of Durov is the biggest ongoing threat to privacy in the EU, especially as three of the charges against him are explicitly for providing "cryptology" tools/services: https://www.tribunal-de-paris.justice.fr/sites/default/files...

They also got a €5.5M fine imposed on WhatsApp, which is pretty perverse given that WhatsApp is the only major mainstream platform that has implemented true E2E encryption: https://noyb.eu/en/just-eu-55-million-whatsapp-dpc-finally-g...

Specifically within a single file, I find LLMs can easily extend and maintain large sets of slightly varying concrete code, yet they struggle when that code is compressed into abstractions. The concrete examples form a dataset. Attention generalizes from that dataset.

I'll agree that rule of three continues to apply for patterns across files, where there is less guarantee that all patterns will be read or written together in any given AI action.

Completely untrue.

Things that were added in the last 10 years off the top of my head:

* 10 years of updates to the iOS/Android/GoogleTV/AppleTV/Mac/Windows/etc clients (that doesn't come for free)

* OpenSubtitle search built in

* Intro detection

* Credit detection

* Watch Together

* LiveTV/DVR support

* PlexAmp

* PlexDash

And more that I'm not thinking of.

You can say "I don't care about those features", which is a tired take IMHO, but there are plenty of features they have added to keep up with the online streaming platforms.
I've been watching this sort of thing for decades. Decisions like this by a CBP agent never get overturned by their management, and it never reaches the White House. If what the French researcher wrote was harmless then I would agree with you that this would be a case of policy from the WH causing overreactions below.
It's an open secret that the US blocked Sweden from sending Gripen to Ukraine (because Gripen depends on parts from the US).

Many countries are now reevaluating their US dependence and I'm sure it's a very high priority throughout the world to reduce or eliminate it.
That’s such an outmoded and naive statement that it’s almost like a coded warning.

Because power and legal liability are different. He can order a political opponent thrown in prison without cause. He does not have the power to do so, so that person would be freed by a court. Due to the immunity ruling, he is not liable for those actions now or after he leaves office unless he is impeached/convicted.

The extremely vague guidance was in part because SCOTUS only tries to rule on what is in front of them and also because they want any immunity decision to go through them.
To prove a number is on the list, you need to calculate all its digits. But to prove it's not on the list, you only need to calculate its digits up to the first odd one. It looks like the number of digits until the first odd grows very slowly; per the comments there up to n=50000 it has a maxiumum of 18.
> All we needed to do was email the S3 zip link to the customer and they learned a quick procedure to extract it on the server each time.

My concern with this kind of deployment solution, where the customer is instructed to install software from links received in e-mails, is that someone else could very easily send them a link to a malicious installer and they would be hosed. E-mail is not authenticated (usually) and the sender can be forged.

I suppose you could use a shared OneDrive folder or something, which would be safer, as long as the customer doesn't rely on receiving the link to OneDrive by e-mail.
It doesn't review all data, it triggers a Bing search to see who the person is and feeds the results to generate the output with. Even searching "Who is Donald Trump?" results in searching the web before generating results if I try it currently.
> Who is “us”?

Canadians, of course.

> Surely we need to acknowledge that Europeans invaded Canada in the first place?

No. Europeans (and others) "invaded" North America. The sovereign country called "Canada" didn't exist until the mid-1800s. Even the name didn't appear on maps until the mid-1500s and the indigenous peoples who lived in North America at the time certainly didn't consider themselves a part of a unified nation by that name.

> It has everything to lose by continuing to rely on the US, which is why you're seeing such a hard pivot toward Europe and Asia.

The problem is, this kind of pivot would take a long time and be extremely difficult. Out there in the real world, real Canadians have a lot to lose.

The US strong-arming its allies in this way puts them in a massive bind near term. Canada could eventually adapt to a different world order with reduced reliance on the US, but it would suffer a recession (or worse) in the process.

They have no good options here, because how can you really deal with a madman? (In a game theoretical sense [0], if not also a literal one) - but I think the ideal strategy is to acquiesce to the US and pursue these efforts as quickly as they can to remove any reliance going forward.

This is made more difficult by the fact that there seems no obvious way to actually appease the US, whose current goals and objectives are completely opaque.

>They are literally almost never used in crime.

It absolutely depends on the type of crime. Domestic murders most often happen with 'legal' guns north and south of the border.

Other crimes, specifically 'aggravated' crimes that involve a weapon however lean the other way where guns are mostly 'illegal' in some way (stolen, smuggled, person doesn't have the right to have due to criminal record or otherwise depending on state/country).

Both domestic and aggravated crimes happen enough that you can justify the use of 'routinely' in both cases. Its ALSO completely true that most legally acquired guns are only ever used legally.

>Democracy is not being dismantled.

- Legal visa holders being deported for criticizing the government
- Foreign nationals invited to conferences in the US denied at the border for criticizing the government
- Government officials stating they will go against legal/judicial orders
- Executive over-reach specifically to remove checks and balances and ensure what remains of government agencies and its staff are loyal to the person, not the president or the country.
- Violating multiple laws, overstepping the bounds of the executive office specifically designed to protect democracy and assuming powers of the legislative and judicial branches
- Attacking Judges for implementing the law/doing their jobs as part of the above
- Professionally and personally threatening members of the legislative branch, state governors and others if they oppose the acts of the President.

Democracy and what democratic protections you have is absolutely being dismantled right in front of you.

>If anything, the end of massive censorship in social media, like was seen in the last 10-15 years, is helping democracy.

I just logged back into facebook after a few years haitus. The majority of what was on there was provably false / fake. Its worse than it ever has been. This is SUCH a benefit to democracy (hint, its not).

While I will agree there has been overreach on censorship, the pendulum swing the other way on top of the enshittification of the internet and the introduction of AI means the average citizen is now less informed and more propagandized than ever. Add in the failings of the US education system and the abysmal literacy rate...

An educated and informed population is bedrock of democracy, checks and balances are its framework. The US foundation has crumbled and its buildings are on fire.
Just tried on Firefox on Windows and Firefox on Android. Both fine, as usual.
Let's hope Europe finally starts developing their own again. It will be good for jobs and technical knowledge. Globalization can be good but for critical things like weapons or also chips, it's better to have capability at home.

I think Trump may be miscalculating the situation. The Ukraine war already caused a shift of some countries away from the West towards Russia/China. With Trump being so openly hostile towards former allies, the US may lose influence world wide.
RememberTheMilk
Canada should really consider creating its own nuclear deterrent. Or becoming the 51st state to get one. I think those are the two options. Trump has told the truth about dismantling his own government, its best to believe him on Canada and assume he intends to do the same to yours.
Has anyone even attempted to study whether that's the situation we're in? Or are we further destroying the low end of the labor market to make the rich even richer? The latter seems vastly more likely. Expensive, local labor, folks, is how you "tax the rich" and "fix inequality".
Demanding that Europe have free speech for their citizens is not the same thing as demanding that Europe have free speech for non-citizens. Sophistry doesn't help in controversial times, IMO.
There's a meta-problem here: GitHub Actions is one of those things that when you first encounter it, is presented as: "we've got it all figured out and all goin on here, and anyone who is scratching their head must be dumb". This pattern, in my experience, shows up frequently in the software realm. Then, typically there follows some period where you try to do whatever you need to do by reading docs and copying what you see others do. Frustration and head scratching grows finally culminating in a process of "Ok WTF are the core concepts of this thing, what were they thinking when they designed it, what is it really going???".

The article is what you end up finding after that stage has been gone through.

The conclusion of course is that whoever invented this stuff really wasn't thinking clearly and certainly didn't have the time to write decent documentation to explain what they were thinking. And now the whole world has to try to deal with their mess.

My theory as to how this ends up happening is that the people creating the thing began with some precursor thing as their model. They made the new thing as "old thing, with a few issues fixed". Except they didn't fully understand the concepts in that thing, and we never got to see that thing. You'll see many projects that have this form: bun is "yarn fixed". Yarn is "npm fixed". And so on. None of these projects ever has to fully articulate their concepts.
For those who actually want a usable output, it's not quicker than just learning the right answer or how to do something.

On the other hand, if you just want to sound smart but don't care if you are right, for 75% of the time it's probably good enough.
The article agrees passkeys can't be phished. They acknowledge they just push users to go through an unnecessary account recovery and then phish those other credentials.
I've found that OpenAI's Deep Research seems to be much better at this, including finding an obscure StackOverflow post that solved a problem I had, or finding travel wiki sites that actually answered questions I had around traveling around Poland.
