Not necessarily. A lot of contractors are on call at a moments notice, work crazy hours, and take home all sorts of health related problems.

Masseuse or physical trainer are the only jobs that I can think would qualify. No screen time, no one needs a midnight massage (although your work hours would probably not be 9-5.), not reliant on technology, and going to take a while for A

The promise of Instruction per Second scaling forever did stop being super-exponential. Instead of CPU based Instructions per Second we have continued scaling compute with GPU based Floating-point Operations Per Second which don't exac

When I'm messing around, I normally have everything in a Pandas DataFrame already so I just add embeddings as a column and calculate cosine similarity on the fly. Even with a hundred thousand rows, it's fast enough to calculate be

The weights are downloadable so there isn't much of a risk if Google stops hosting Gemma apart from the fact that it won't get new versions that you swap out in the future.

I don't know whether Sam should be fired because no one has published the reason that he was in the first place. All I know is that the first time that the authority of the board was used to make an unpopular decision in what presumabl

The botched firing of Sam Altman proves that fancy governance structures are little more than paper shields against the market. Whatever has been written can be unwritten and if that fails, just start a new company with the same employees.

You can't be an innocent bystander on a board of 6 when you vote to oust 2 of them... The math doesn't work. That's ignoring the fact that every outlet has unanimously pointed at Ilya being the driving force behind the coup.

I'm interested in the last bit. That sentiment towards anything on HN has become steadily more negative over time. Would be interested to see if this trend exists on other websites and the internet as a whole. It could be a way to meas

You could also argue the exact opposite. Crypto skyrocketed around 2011-2012 which is also the advent of the compute heavy deep learning boom. If anything, the cost escalation and scarcity of GPUs due to the demand by the crypto-space slowe

And world war two was started by some failed artist from Germany. Deliberately reducing things is easy and does not prove anything.

Here is not a very good answer to your question, but think about how you know how to walk. It's something that is not entirely conscious. You legs just move between places that you desire to go without any thought to the angle of your

Yeah, but now we are in rather hilarious territory. Act Utilitarians can be taken advantage of by deontologist pediatric surgeons, but only once per surgeon per utilitarian. Much less of a gotcha than the original formulation of Bentham&#x2

The underlying assumption is that Bentham is a true act utilitarian yet simultaneously has 10 pounds in his pocket that he can stand to lose without much harm. If he truly were an act utilitarian, the utility of the 10 pounds remaining in B

Your argument is textbook anti-EV propaganda that has been debunked for over a decade now. Ask anyone that owns an EV how many times a month they go to a super charger. The answer is probably zero because unless they went on a road trip, th
