Polars is faster? Data.table was a pioneering speed improvement at one point for sure.

With R on Windows, you get some binary dependencies, but on Linux you need the system libraries for any package that uses an external library. R uses the HTTP headers to determine which binary package to send you and no roll-your-own packag

I wonder if they will relax scrutiny of use of CinemaDNG, or honestly if Nikon produced CDNG that would be cool.

It matters for forensics of videos to verify when they were created by aligning them with the known power grid frequency changes.

That's probably the foreseeable future, ingesting ever larger amounts of data hoping it prevents hallucinations.

"Carefully tested prompts" sounds a lot like "these are the lotto numbers we know are right" kind of thing? How in the world are these things used for anything programmatically deterministic?

I mean, doesn't that sweep the problem I'm describing into the loss function definition?

It is my understanding there is no way to objectively or programmatically tell if any of this stuff is correct or doesn't obfuscate some dire error. These tricks don't give me confidence that we're headed in that direction ei

First time I ever stayed up all night playing a game it was Lemmings. Second time was Angry Birds lol. I don't game much.

How is laziness programmatically defined or used as a benchmark

Since there's no way to truly objectively tell if LLM output is correct, this seems like it would have its limits, even if it seems subjectively good, but I have that problem with all of the LLM stuff I guess.

My original post, and comment, was that the view of the government at the time was everyday boring security principles that we still use today that mirror a lot of physical security principles. The video goes in detail. I'm sorry I tho

The position of the US government as far as I can tell was that this was such little fish at the time that was the reason they didn't pay much attention compared to the ongoing direct network attacks against more valuable assets.

Are those tiers good or bad? What is the order?

The mechanisms in improving LLM code output do not correlate to better understanding of systems or even LLMs for that matter. For language I think you're more correct in your view for sure.

This here is a wonderful perspective. We are most definitely lacking a serious set of epistemology discussions for some time even before the bullshit faucets.

If your items are stolen from your car, the police officer can't care, but will take the report. If you say you left your doors unlocked, you also get a lecture. No one will welcome or be impressed by any sleuthing on your part. Maybe

I mean, you got a guy going on Geraldo and such fear mongering and accusing the government of doing nothing while the most senior level of the US government as public as possible describes modern sounding risk management ideals... And peopl

He spent a long time on Slashdot and other places speaking out against hackers of all types and it wasn't until maybe 1999 or 2000 until he seemed to concede that some aspects of hacking, such as the bug bounties of today, were valuabl

Mr. Stoll I believe eventually spent some time listening to the community, but for a while he had some contradictory views along the lines of the white, black, grey hat or perhaps what we would now call red team. For comparison here is a vi

Yes, this is so true. There is a lot of wild attacking of the questioners of Julia.

I sincerely agree with your comments so much. People that don't live with code don't see this and have weird romantic ideas of what it is and what it does. Mixing levels of abstraction has never made much sense (ultimately) to me.

What? If the research doesn't show it, it can't do it, is my point, or else they would've put it in their research.

This is a very underrated comment... As with any tech demo, I'd they don't show it, it can't do it. It is very very easy to imagine a generalization of these things to other purposes, which, if it could do it, would be a diff

Honestly I don't know why you're replying, it is not really addressing what I'm talking about and using a lot of the argument styles I'm complaining about.
