Garry's mod uses Lua on server and clients. It also has the ability to create an embedded web browser on the client. There have been many exploits throughout the years, including this particular exploit with bytecode, though in LuaJIT.

I wish this was more defined or documented somehow. You're kind of left on your own to figure out whether a language is reasonably guaranteed to be safe or not. Some example scenarios: - Code is static and is executed directly by a use

Something from previous discussions about the whole "Rather than paying $50k up front for 8 x A100's, you can just rent some GPU's for $1.2k to train the whole thing in 4 days" That feel off to me is that it completely i

loadstring lwas replaced with load, and dostring was removed, but it's basically just assert(loadstring(code))(...) load is the replacement. i assume the grandparent meant dostring and not eval?

> Kind of curious about this. I find packaging in Lua quite convenient. I make a file and return either a value or a table full of values and then I require that file in the dependent file that uses the package. While that aspect of it i

Although I'm skeptical of a watershed moment of agi going avry, I think a more realistic and dangerous scenario would be that AI impacts society similar to how smartphones did in its negative ways. Many AI models slowly eroding society

I feel it was worse than gpt4 at coding at a low level (getting syntax right, forgetting small details, etc) But I can write code so those can be fixed. At a higher level it's OK, but the most valuable thing is being able to have my co

I was really fascinated by Gemini 1.5 pro, though it was a bit slow and sort of 70% accurate in my use case. I have a huge 500k~ tokens and complex niche codebase that I've worked on for many years, largely alone. There are parts of it

If they are single files or directories they could be drag dropped on use. Not very convenient though. Maybe just some sort of api to give the website fine grained access to the filesystem might be enough. You'd specify a directory or

The practical main use case I can think of is entertainment. Games could use it, either dynamically or prerecorded. Amateur videos could also use it for fun. Outside of that, more versatile text to speech is generally useful for blind peopl

With my speaker setup I always had slight gpu coil whine from gpu usage. This has helped me a few times to figure out if the gpu is doing any work at all when trying to figure out why something in ie pytorch is slow.

Usually if you peek at the first few commits it all seemed nice and clean. The turning point is usually as soon as the original author/'s leave and new people come in.

You want to use rocm directly or with something like pytorch? If pytorch, keep in mind that most of the pytorch+rocm version is self contained, and you don't need to install every roc* package on your system for it to work. This confus

The end result of doing this is good, but I find it really difficult to cleanly do this before I have something that's 100% complete. I don't code linearly like "first I need feature A, then I code feature B which is needed f
