FRED lets you control for population actually! It does flatten the change a bit but it's still a bump: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=1Q8J6

It's more like pointing out that a machine that runs at 1000c occasionally catches fire.

That seems like a thought terminating concept? Every business has risks.

The employees should know what they are getting into and hopefully the business is providing resources to help keep them reasonably safe.

The framers noted that the system was vulnerable to a single "faction" [1]. The solution was to have many competing factions. I think first-past-the-post, corporate election influence, and mass media consolidated power into a single faction that ended up causing the system to break down (in that the branches don't seem to be checking each other's power right now).

It appears this will be an opt in feature.

Honestly it will probably help some people "hey where did I put that file?" but yes at a tremendous cost to privacy and security for those who use it.

I am also weary that it is opt in "for now".

No singular person, it's more the value of having a large database. You visit a coffee shop, a stalker collects your dna from a fingerprint and uses the a leaked or sold database from 23andme to tie it to your identity or home address, etc.

Interestingly this also works if a direct relative has used it as well.

5 U.S.C. §7311

Federal employees are not allowed to strike

One advantage of uuids is they can be generated on several distributed systems without having to check with each other that they are unique. Only long ids make this reliable. Youtube ids are random and short, but youtube has to check they are unique when generating them.

Maybe one way is to split up a random assignment space and assign to each distributed node, but that would be more complex.

Having tons of people employ human ingenuity to manipulate existing LLMs into passing this one benchmark kind of defeats the purpose of testing for "AGI". The author points this out as it's more of a pattern matching test.

Though on the other hand figuring out which manipulations are effective does teach us something. And I think most problems boil down to pattern matching, creating a true, easily testable AGI test may be tough.

> estimated 2.4 million items

That's 5 years if one person worked on it nonstop without sleeping and each item took 60 seconds.

I would assume they probably sit in a secure location and items on display or items leaving/transferred are catalogued first so there's bit of a triage and backlog.

Museums probably don't want to turn down valuable item donations even if they don't have the resources to catalogue if right away.

Not a lawyer but those contracts aren't legal. You need something called "consideration" ie something new of value to be legal. They can't just take away something of value that was already agreed upon.

However they could add this to new employee contracts.

The training jurisdiction one is interesting. Are future companies going to exclusively train their models in a copyright lack country?

Seems like jurisdiction would be based on the copyright of the allegedly infringed images, and UK-based users creating copyright infringing copies in the UK.

But that's apparently not the law or case law in the UK yet.

I looked it up and there is a whole industry of "low voltage" or cable networking installers.

I think it's more a matter of cost and that people wouldn't think to do it if their internet mostly works.

If you haven't used aws a lot then you might not know this but the old instance types stick around and you can still use them, especially as "spot" which lets you bid for server time.

I had a science project which was cpu bound and it turns out because people bid based on the performance, the old chips end up costing the same in terms of cpu work done/$ (older chips cost less per hr but do less).

aws though was by far the most expensive so switching to like oracle with their ampere arm was a lot cheaper for me.

I don't think that's quite right, Microsoft's main game was keeping the money train going by any means necessary, they have staked so much on copilots and Enterprise/Azure Open AI. So much has been invested into that strategic direction and seeing Google swoop in and out-innovate Microsoft would be a huge loss.

Either by keeping OpenAI as-is, or the alternative being moving everyone to Microsoft in an attempt to keep things going would work for Satya.

Just to add another perspective, isn't sales like this at any large company? Sales is pushed hard on quotas/targets and so look for any way possible to hit those. In other words were these requests taken seriously by the product managers and leadership?

USPS I think from a branding perspectives wants to be compared to retail shipping and not come across and some stuffy/slow bureaucratic agency, even though they totally are.

Seems like it would be a waste of money as many students can afford it, Stanford's model of generous, guaranteed scholarships makes more sense to me.

You can only settle past claims.

A lot of these chemicals have been banned or restricted

The article links a source and says "In real life, people similarly believe that survival after CPR is over 75%"

While I do believe LLMs can perform some reasoning, I'm not sure this is the best example as all the reasoning you would ever need for Minecraft is well contained in the data set used to train it. A lot has been written about minecraft.

To me, it would be more convincing if they developed an enterly new game with somewhat novel and arbitrary rules and saw if the embodied agent could learn this game.

I don't think the score necessarily reflects the strength of the case. Particularly weak cases are dismissed or handled in lower courts with appeals dismissed.

Second, the court's makeup is politically decided

Third, the court has in the past ( roe v wade ) chosen to be unanimous when reports say internally there was some dissenters.

There's a bit of irony with this thread I think but this was Minix's creator's viewpoint as well:

https://www.cs.vu.nl/~ast/Publications/Papers/computer-2006a...

I always saw Minix3 was as a companion to the "Operating Systems: Design and Implementation 3/e by Andrew S" book which was in 2006. Probably you were only ever going to run it in a virtual machine. More of an "educational" kernel.

I have done this before, which is pretty simple because ssh is basically always available:

    ssh -R \*:8080:localhost:80 -N [email protected]

Why not ask Github?

This is another case of one side thinking the agency is doing too little while another side thinks they approve and do too much.

Courts regulate the regulators to make sure they are following the law, both for action and inaction.

Other agencies (OIG and OMB), and democratically elected executive and legislative branch oversee agencies.
