The history is right, my predictions are probably garbage.

Kind of similar to Marx himself, I guess.

So are CNNs, but I guess their popularity heavily increased at that time, to the point where it made sense to optimize the hardware for them.
I truly wondered last Tuesday if he was only getting more "serious" because the market had stopped responding to his announce-a-planned-tariff-one-day-then-reverse-it-the-next strategy, so it was no longer useful, and he'd need to string them along far longer to make it work at least one more time.
> they told me their largest customers are for training, not inference

That is curious. Things are moving so quickly right now. I typed out a few speculative sentences then went ahead and asked an LLM.

Looks like Cerebras is responding to the market and pivoting towards a perceived strength of their product combined with the growth in inference, especially with the advent of reasoning models.
> Wonder if this hints at possibly reducing or relaxing KYC rules also?

Good call, I would assume so. KYC helps prevent money laundering, bribes and a ton of other illegal transactions. Eliminating it would line up with other actions performed by this admin.
I’ll add a few more freedoms.

1. Can’t walk about drinking a beer.

2. Can’t carry too much cash or it’s at risk of being confiscated.

3. Criminalization of walking. https://illinoislawreview.org/print/vol-2017-no-3/the-crimin...

4. Pretty much have to own a car in most places.

5. Thousands of polling stations closed since the Voting Rights Act was gutted.

6. Federal politics held hostage by low population states. It’s insane that North Dakota has slightly less federal power than Texas.

7. Not even the House of Representatives has proportional representation.
Is there a solid 'trust this paper' site out there? I would think that something could be built that rated papers on how much they have been reproduced, supported or refuted by other papers.

Good thing this wasn't happening with crypto fraud. Wire fraud is pretty much the same even with blockchain.
I took a year of Mandarin as an undergrad, speaking is doable, reading and writing is hard, but Google Translate & Co. would make that less daunting now.
I don't have insight on what goes on inside Google - they may well be doing this at some level, but their business isn't finding stuff, it's selling ads, so getting the search right is a very low priority.

The LLM people are heavily invested in ever bigger models to keep the research money flowing in, it wouldn't make sense to release a service that undercuts that.

that leaves independent actors - presumably building and maintaining an up to date database is difficult, so only the big search engines do.
> He can "do" essentially anything, per the supreme court.

This is often said, but it's not true and it has nothing to do with anything that Trump is doing. What they ruled is that he can't be _prosecuted_ for most actions he takes as president. It obviously doesn't mean that the Supreme Court can't overrule executive actions, because they continued to do that after that ruling was made. And as much as Democrats complained about it at the time, it's probably the only thing keeping Biden from facing some kind of phony indictment right now.

The _only_ thing that is allowing Trump to get away with this is Congress's inability to act, or passive acquiescence to what he's doing.

For completeness sake that could potentially also cut both ways. If it turns out that fluoride does lower academia potential then it would be occurring in the brain's most important development period. Once they are adults they would have to live with that artificial limitation. Though they do say ignorance is bliss.

My personal preference would be to let the scientists, researchers and skeptics put on boxing gloves and in the mean time give the child a healthy diet, teach them to use a water-pick daily to avoid not only cavities but other potential issues related to diet and gum hygiene.
> LLMs tend to overuse [em dashes] and compose absurdly long sentences.

So do I.
This article is amazing. I think any engineer outside of programming language builders would get something incredibly useful for it.

Not enough engineers engage with the concept of code and programming and as an industry we suffer for it. The beginning of this post does a phenomenal job of simplifying very basic but high level concepts as “what is a function” “what is a tag”.

99% or programmers don’t think about these things like this, and so get confused when these building blocks are manipulated and presented in seemingly strange ways like React components or server components or whatever. By breaking down these concepts (functions, blueprints) and having rebuilding them with simple definitions it allows the reader to start their mental model fresh and go from there.

This is a masterclass in technical communication.

Who gives a shit if it’s long. In fact I’m glad it’s long because every sentence is gold. These are deep subjects and foundational to programming and so ya, talking about them like this can take a few words.

99% of people who take the time to really read and process this post will come away as noticeably improved developers. That kind of bang for the buck is rare!
Leader of the free world almost always refers to the U.S. President or the U.S. itself depending on context.
I dunno, the "tool" that LLMs "replace" is thinking itself. That seems qualitatively different than anything that has come before. It's the "tool" that underlies all the others.
Ethical doesn't have to mean non-functional. Like I previously highlighted the "mad cow" disease pandemic of the 90s shows that these "soft" ideas of not feeding cows beef scraps actually have functional outcomes, despite seeming ethnical at first. This is also evidenced by free-range chickens having less potential exposure to bird flu than hatchery chickens who are packed so close together that the virus can sweep through the entire facility.

> You can't expect people to obey the law if you won't tell them what it is.

That's an excuse the crypto community dreamed up. The SEC's position, pre-Trump, was quite clear: crypto assets are securities. File an S-1, as you would for an IPO, with all the usual disclosures, under penalty of perjury. A very few crypto issues did that.

This new statement is mostly about crypto "exchanges". Pure exchanges aren't so bad. At no point in a trade does the NYSE own the asset. It's that crypto exchanges are usually not just exchanges, but brokers, dealers, custodians, and lenders. All of which can lose assets.

Actual memo: [1] It doesn't really change much. Frauds against investors can still be prosecuted.

It's so painfully obvious to anyone paying attention that his whole character reeks of fraud. How this news could ever come as a surprise to anyone is a testament to how poorly our mainstream and social media outlets have informed the citizenry.
Stuff We Depleted
The nutso thing is this idea that there is no freedom of speech for non-citizens. Now that we're eliminating birthright citizenship and allowing people to be deported to El Salvador with no due process it's pretty easy to just declare someone a non-citizen because they can't provide their great-great-great-great-grandmother's birth certificate from 1783 that proves that they have citizenship going back to the founding of the country, then just put you on a flight to wherever they want so that you can't hire a lawyer in the US to fight for you. The only reason that hairdresser has anyone speaking for him at the moment is because he has family in the US and they have been able to find a lawyer.
The main concern I have is that there's not a well defined security context in any agentic system. They are assumed to be "good" but that's not good enough.
Tbf the fishing ports were some of the most rational Brexit voters. They were aware that EU fisheries policy quotas seriously impaired their ability to catch fish and believed that leaving the EU meant leaving the quotas behind.

Unfortunately for them, they happened to be completely wrong about this (arguably not unpredictably: the UK MMO was more zealous than most European countries about enforcing catch restrictions) so they didn't lose the quota system but did lose an export market.
Was it really preparing?

Because the preparation ended up not being sufficient.

Assuming people doing the hiring can be outsmarted in all cases like this is part of the problem.

Maybe 'preparation' can evolve to the candidates asking AI for a crash course and way to start using it instead of talking the talk.

It never ceases to amaze me that it's surprised it's hard to BS your way through tech jobs at tech companies. Maybe it works with tech positions at non-tech companies.
You can buy Croc knockoffs at the "Dollar Store" yet Crocs still exists. Why? Is it purely first-mover advantage/brand or is there an engineering edge?
Haha thanks, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I appreciate kind words, and GEB is too obvious of an inspiration. I would highly recommend Terence Tao's Analysis textbook. It's maybe a bit too rigorous/formal (and maybe doesn't quite describe discovery because it develops very standard theory) but it builds in a very pleasant way. If you're interested in Lean, some of Kevin Buzzard's writing at https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/ is similarly pleasant (e.g. https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/2021/04/18/induction-on-eq...).

Having your $1000 device stolen by the government as an acceptable outcome is something only a fatcat on HN with their cushy salary would be able to tolerate. I'm not a FAANG employee, and don't make that kind of salary. Loosing a $1k anything would not be something I could just shrug my shoulders and just turn around and immediately replace it.

Even if you do sue the gov't, it'll be at least a year before any kind of resolution that results in the return of that device. Them keeping my phone would be one thing, but if they also kept my laptop, I'd be screwed. My laptop is much more than $1k, and there's no free laptop with contract cell service I could use to replace it. Now I'd be without a means of working.

These kinds of situations make me really yearn for the days of replacing the internal hard drive of a laptop. I could swap out my daily use drive for a travel drive, which would be much less of a hassle than the options on offer for modern laptops.

That businesses are allowed to surprise you with unexpected fees is a negative thing. How can you interpret it otherwise?
They have always been assholes. I was detained by CBP back in 1997 returning from Europe (through O'Hare airport), even though all my papers were in order (I am a natural-born citizen and I had my passport) because I was overheard speaking Spanish (I was returning from a study-abroad trip to Spain). Someone actually demanded to know where in Mexico I was born, even though, as I said, I had my passport, state ID, and birth cert all right there with me. They just dumped me in a waiting room for 90m (long enough to miss my flight), then told me to go with no explanation or apology. On the way out someone laughed and told me they didn't know why I was detained but I "looked like a terrorist" (I had a full beard at the time). Mind you, this was before 9/11 so I'm sure it's worse now.

Funds selling bonds to cover their losses on equity side.
On the other side KYC rules and enforcement can be anything from annoying to downright asinine (and not just for banks).

I'd prefer if governments would take a step back and invest into enforcing actual crimes themselves and not just stick with money laundering charges because these are easier to prove. It was already bad under Al Capone (who got nabbed for taxes instead of murder), and it's way worse today.

> Their parents are able to set their kids up for a life of pain and dental bills

This is true of a lot of parenting, and the case is more critical for vaccines than dental hygiene because cavities aren’t transmissible. (Within reason.)

So yes, ideally the kids of the uninformed wouldn’t be born into dental debt. But that’s better than them having gone blind from measles or lame from polio. (Coldly, because those costs will be socialised.)
Sort of! My impression is that LISP is a little more powerful than what we're building up in the article. I wanted to focus on a few specific aspects (like first-class cross-environment imports and serializing continuations) but I'd ofc expect all of that to be expressible in LISP.
Only use LLMs for half of your work, at most. This will ensure you continue to solidify your fundamentals. It will also provide an ongoing reality check.

I’d also have sessions / days where I don’t use AI at all.

Use it or lose it. Your brain, your ability to persevere through hard problems, and so on.
In realistic practice there is no escaping it, though. Even if you maintain relations throughout the majority of your application, you are almost certainly still going to need to call some kind of third-party API or networked service that requires mapping between relations and objects. Especially if networked services are involved as they nearly always eschew relations in favour of objects to avoid the typical n+1 problems.

Should your application map objects and relations at all isn't usually a question you get to ask unless it is doesn't do much or lives on its own private island. Should you do it yourself or lean on a toolkit to help is the question that you have to contend with.
I live in a town where most people grew up on well water, but we grew up in cities in another state with fluoridated water.

The Scale of Ownership: Why Fundamental Innovation Can't Be Rented
The idea is to pick a topic you're so jazzed about that your enthusiasm overrides The Fear.

One of the things I like to do on the hiring side is hold interviews in the smallest room people won't complain about. The way we think about public speaking has a lot to do with how close we are to each other.
Service charge is a weird thing. Normally, I'd expect a volume discount if I create bigger business for someone. Restaurants decided that's not how it works.

If someone with experience could explain why 1x6 people should be charged a higher price than 6x1 people, I am curious.
Even if you believed that to be the case, you could choose an area that had high natural fluoride in the water, provide gravity filters and then double-blind supplement fluoride at a moderate level for one group.

It is certainly more ethical than saying "we are definitely going to let your children's teeth rot because some people think, on the basis of circumstantial evidence, it might have approximately the same effects as not having children's books in the home."

That's all fine and good until enough people are jobless and homeless and they come to take all our heads. And I wouldn't even blame 'em for it.

I find it weird that most of my younger colleagues totally do not understand job control, and generally use just a subset of shell features in their day to day development work. I would wager they also don’t value man pages. I remember the blank stares I was met with when I suggested we create a man page for an extremely complex CLI tool we maintain.

There was already an often out of date wiki page that people hated maintaining, nobody could understand why you wouldn’t just use that.
Maybe it's suspicious in Silicon Valley, but I know plenty of people who make minimal use of their phone. In Japan, flip phones are supposed to still be fairly popular.
I think that one reason that humans are so good at understanding images is that our eyes see video rather than still images. Video lets us see "cause and effect" by seeing what happens after something. It also allows us to grasp the 3D structure of things since we will almost always see everything from multiple angles. So long as we just feed a big bunch of stills into training these models, it will struggle to understand how things affect one another.

If you got an email about your purchase, there's a lot of opportunity to establish you bought something from Amazon.

If you used a credit card, there's a lot of opportunity to establish you bought something from Amazon.

If you bought something fulfilled by Amazon, there is more than a lot of opportunity to establish you bought something on Amazon...there is certain knowledge and any nefarious activity is likely to be assumed to be blamed on Amazon.

If an adversarial actor was trying to exfiltrate purchase data, TiMOVO would be an easier target than Amazon. Good luck.

The difference between selling every shoe at $150 and selling less than every shoe at $300 (or whatever the secondary market is charging) probably gets tossed around in pricing meetings.

Plus, higher secondary market prices drive demand for the less desirable shoes as everyone can't afford to spend a week's wages on a pair of shoes but can stretch their budget for the still-kind-of-cool models. I'd go so far as to say the secondary market prices drive more demand for the lesser models as the cool kids want to be seen wearing what the rich cool kids are wearing.

I'm sure they spend a lot of time discussing what price they can charge without people openly revolting against their 'predatory pricing' strategies.
Does searching with /-ss not do this well enough?

Be careful extrapolating based on China's current population and demographics. Too much of our armchair assessments of China's velocity is based on their meteoric rise on the backs of a historically large working-age population—a population that is now rapidly aging out of the workforce with nothing to replace it thanks to the one child policy. The US's demographics aren't stellar, but they're a lot better off than most of the developed world.

It remains to be seen how different 2010's China—with 90% of the population being under 60—is from 2050's China—with only 69% of the population being under 60.
