I agree this is what trips people up. Large language models do have a "goal" but it (predicting the next word) is very alien and intelligence is power to achieve goal so it can be only evaluated respective to goal. Let's say

The article is about we have no fucking idea how things like 1/10 loss translate to capability and that's why we can't make statements like "even at 1/10 loss ML solutions are likely not competitive for many tasks&q

We are fine with approving medicine with no known mechanism of action but with safety and efficacy shown in clinical trials. We will be fine with models.

I am doubtful static content can be served secure. NGINX is written in C after all. Cloudbleed in fact happened.

Bitcoin Piñata hosted 10 BTC for three years, so I think substantial security is possible. It had one known vulnerability (in network device driver) patched before exploited in its life, and zero exploited vulnerability (BTC is still there)

I live in South Korea. One thing people miss about nuclear power in South Korea is that natural gas is expensive in South Korea, because there is no pipeline connection and it is imported liquified. The article quotes $25/MWh for natur

If you aren't using Linux kernel TLS support already, try it. Obviously it won't help with AES-NI instructions, but it is not rare to see 5% saving by enabling it. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest&#

VGG works better for style transfer than ResNet (this is a surprising result, but empirically true), but that's the only case I am aware of. https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.05623

Yes, they are talking their book. That's why you should decide for yourself.

Have a look at "Battery Showcase" PDF at https://www.quantumscape.com/resources/ page 20. It clearly says 1C.

They do say 800 cycles were each 1 hour, not 15 minutes.

Can you share some criticisms? Because I found IonQ report pretty convincing too.

Effectively slow charging. Extremely sketchy in my opinion. They may not be technically lying, but they certainly intend to lead you to wrong conclusion.

It's not about moving parts. All current lithium ion batteries use liquid electrolyte.

Note that it is extremely carefully worded. It retains 80% capacity after 800 cycles, but those cycles are not 15 minutes cycles! I am not making this up, QuantumScape themselves say this. If you check their presentation, 80% capacity after

Yes it is. It is on the front page of Scorpion Capital, "activist short selling focused on publicly traded frauds and promotes". You can download 188 pages report here. Decide for yourself. https://scorpioncapital.com&#

I think one idea is that when charging EV at station becomes problematic, you stop charging EV at home. EV home charging is almost ideally suited to demand response. If that doesn't work out, you would need to build lots of pumped stor

Rust was created to improve the situation where web browsers are written in C++. (I hope we can agree this is bad.) It was not created to impress you.

Most strings in examples are statically allocated and don't need freeing. There is an example with freeing of strings in the introduction. Search for strings::freeall.

No, it isn't. On the other hand, you are living in a world where web browsers are written in C++. I hope we can agree this is as tragic as wooden bridges.

Postgres certainly can. It's less than two million lines of code. Just Firefox has more Rust code than entire Postgres.

Rust just crossed 10% in Firefox. Rust is steadily replacing C and C++ in Firefox, as it was designed to do. https://4e6.github.io/firefox-lang-stats/

I don't know whether Shakti didn't support C extension in the past, but it certainly supports it now. I just checked the decoder source code right now.

175B * 16 bits = 350GB, but it does compress a bit. GPT-J-6B, which you can download at https://github.com/kingoflolz/mesh-transformer-jax , is 6B parameters but weighs 9GB. It does decompress to 12GB as expected. Assum
