People disagreeing with the article aren't "dismissing AI". Did you read what it said?
182.
by kreetx 10mo ago
Yup. LLMs are a big statistical model, where also any sub-part doesn't know the whole. If it's really similar to a brain, I guess we might say we discovered it. But if it isn't, we invented it. The fact that it is so useful d

"Intelligence" is too vague. Do you mean neural nets in our heads developed in millions of years? Do we know that it is a neural net?
184.
by kreetx 10mo ago
I think we do know how they work, no? We give a model some input, this travels through the big neural net of probabilities (gotten with training) and then arrives at a result. Sure, you don't know what the exact constellation of a tr

Having an organization install custom root certificates onto your work or personal computer and hosting a public blog on Cloudflare are two entirely different topics. That your healthcare, government, bank, etc. are using Cloudflare, is a t

The title should say "Stop inspecting TLS", the current title reads like the TLS standard or technology is modified in a way to not work properly.

I've used git-annex and I'll tell you, it's overcomplicated. Git LFS is probably better.

Yup: emacs for editing org-mode files but git for sync.

Maybe you're tongue in cheek, but if not, then it matters by discrediting this person, for accepting code from him etc. Anyone can write a blog post now on pretty much whatever topic without actually understand what is being said, so t

Nothing! Another question though when reading his blog: is he himself full AI? as in, not even a human writing those blog posts. Reads a bit like that.

People should just go and read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix) , nothing wrong with reading the above, though it's somewhat click-bait-ish title.

/usr/bin/env and /bin/sh are part of the POSIX standard, this is why NixOS has those available.

/usr/bin/env (and /bin/sh) are part of POSIX, that is why the above shebang is the recommended way to start a shell.

It is, I received none of that (had to look it up later in life).

This part is interesting with regarding to LLMs: https://youtu.be/8pTEmbeENF4?t=817 . He presents as if it were the year 1973, pokes fun at APIs (think HTTP), then says that computers in the future will figure out by themsel

Sure, but what I meant is when there is some other thing that needs to happen atomically together with the balance handled by that one thread (i.e, both balance and other thing change or neither do). You'll need another thread for that
198.
by kreetx 11mo ago
What if you want to compose an action on a balance with something else? (That is what the OP is about) Also, with a queue, you've moved the shared state elsewhere, namely, into the queue.

Which CS course did you go to?

Account balance is necessarily a shared mutable state.

Right, but whatever the languages used by Apple to implement their cloud is not really related to the Swift language. I guess you should have said what you said just now first.

by kreetx 11mo ago
I read this and your reply to the sibling, you seem to have reputation to be sensible - what are you trying to say? If someone re-implements or reverses a service then it doesn't need to be in the same language.

MCP isn't jQuery in the sense that it's supposed to be a standard or description of some sort, while currently isn't quite there yet: wrote about it from a brief reading here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?

Right, but EU doesn't fund only research but something that (IMO) should be entirely commercial. To be clear, I don't oppose publicly funded education (nor immigrant academics, though I don't see how this relates?). What I do

I regret being that loose with the designation :), Romanian and Hungarian are valid counter arguments. In my mind, I was thinking of the belt of countries between Russia and Central Europe, starting from the Baltics down to the Balkan (excl

I wouldn't mind actually/visibly productive companies taking these grants. But I've also seen mostly research-focused (nominally) private companies who mostly live off of science grants, who don't produce nor sell much -

The above is not a discovery though. My experience with government funding is that they apply something and won't even try to sell it because selling is hard: you don't want to know that the thing you built is lacking nor that the

I'm continuing the satire. Did you read the article?

Ah, yes, how could I forget! As a side note, though also Finno-Ugric then similarity in sound and appearance from Finnish or Estonian at least appears very far.

What is there to apologize for, what do you think LLMs use for cheating?
