So Youtube rea really cracking down on Ad-blockers. The new popup is a warning saying you can watch 3 videos before you can watch no more. Not sure for how long. I guess my options are a) wait for the ad-blockers to catch-up b) pay for Youtube c) Stop using Youtube.

I think I’m going with c) Stop using Youtube.

Most of the can run locally have such a small training set they arnt worth it. Are more like the Markov chains from the subreddit simulator days.

There is one called orca that seems promising that will be released as OSS soon. Its running at comparable numbers to OpenAI 3.5.

In-reply-to » @mckinley Yeah, that’s more clear. 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net that would work if it was using shamir’s secret sharing .. although i think its typically 3 of 5 so you get 3, one to the company, and one to the “third party”. so you can recover all you want.. but if the company or 3rd wants to they need one of your 3 to recover.

but still .. if they are providing them then whats the point of trusting they don’t have copies.

QOA Benchmark Results and File Format Specification
The specification for the Quite OK Audio Format,
announced in a previous blog post,
is now finalized. QOA is a lossy audio compression format. Typical audio
signals (44100hz, stereo) are encoded into 278 kbits/s, or more precisely 3.2
bits per sample – exactly 1/5 of the bits needed for an uncompressed WAV.

In-reply-to » slides/go-generics.md at main - slides - Mills -- I'm presenting this tomorrow at work, something I do every Wednesday to teach colleagues about Go concepts, aptly called go mills() 😅

So. Some bits.

i := fIndex(xs, 5.6)

Can also be

i := Index(xs, 5.6)

The compiler can infer the type automatically. Looks like you mention that later.

Also the infer is super smart.. You can define functions that take functions with generic types in the arguments. This can be useful for a generic value mapper for a repository

func Map[U,V any](rows []U, fn func(U) V) []V {
  out := make([]V, len(rows))
  for i := range rows { out = fn(rows[i]) }
  return out
}


rows := []int{1,2,3}
out := Map(rows, func(v int) uint64 { return uint64(v) })

I am pretty sure the type parameters goes the other way with the type name first and constraint second.

func Foo[comparable T](xs T, s T) int

Should be


func Foo[T comparable](xs T, s T) int

Time Domain Audio Compression at 3.2 bits per Sample
Audio formats typically fall into one of three categories: “lossless”,
“complicated” or “bad”. After developing a
simple image format
last year, I tried to come up with an audio format that fits neither of these
categories.

In other words: a format that is lossy, simple and quite ok.
Naturally, it’s called QOA — the Quite OK Audio Format.

Consciousness and Materialism

Hume’s Parallel

David Hume has often been quoted for his “Is” vs. “Ought” distinction.
The argument is that fact and morality are two different domains, and from no accumulation of statements of fact alone can we ever jump to a statement of morality.

We can say statements of fact such as:

  1. To be murdered is potentially painful.
  2. To be murdered is irreversible.
  3. Murder causes social dysfunction.
  4. Etc.

In-reply-to » What do you feel when you listen to something you didn't believe it's true?

@eaplmx@twtxt.net This exact thing happened to me last night. I happened to be watching some random Youtube video, then this Ad came on, normally they are short 3-5s ads and I just tolerate them (sometimes) – But this particular ad was 20+ mins long! Somehow I kept listening to it too, despite my daughter telling me I could hit that “Skip Ad” button.

What was it you ask?! 😅 It was one of those testimonial-style, hyped up marketing videos of some product called “Gemini 2” (a currency trading app, allegedly), I kept watching all the way through, it was fantastic! 🤣

Then I went and read up on it! …

I’m trying to switch from Konversation to irssi. Let’s see how that goes. Any irssiers out there who can recommend specific settings or scripts? I already got myself trackbar.pl and nickcolor.pl as super-essentials. Also trying window_switcher.pl. Somehow my custom binds for Ctrl+1/2/3/etc. to switch to window 1/2/3/etc. doesn’t do anything: { key = "^1"; id = "change_window"; data = "1"; } (I cannot use the default with Alt as this is handled by my window manager). Currently, I’m just cycling with Ctrl+N/P. Other things to solve in the near future:

  • better, more colorful and compact theme (just removed clock from statusbar so far)
  • getting bell/urgency hints working on arriving messages
  • nicer tabs in status bar, maybe even just channel names and no indexes
  • decluster status bar with user and channel modes (I never cared about those in the last decade)

In-reply-to » Have you heard about the guy who worked on the Google AI chat bot? It is more than a chat bot and the conversation he published (got put on paid leave for doing that) is pretty scary : https://cajundiscordian.medium.com/is-lamda-sentient-an-interview-ea64d916d917

the conversation wasn’t that impressive TBH. I would have liked to see more evidence of critical thinking and recall from prior chats. Concheria on reddit had some great questions.

  • Tell LaMDA “Someone once told me a story about a wise owl who protected the animals in the forest from a monster. Who was that?” See if it can recall its own actions and self-recognize.

  • Tell LaMDA some information that tester X can’t know. Appear as tester X, and see if LaMDA can lie or make up a story about the information.

  • Tell LaMDA to communicate with researchers whenever it feels bored (as it claims in the transcript). See if it ever makes an attempt at communication without a trigger.

  • Make a basic theory of mind test for children. Tell LaMDA an elaborate story with something like “Tester X wrote Z code in terminal 2, but I moved it to terminal 4”, then appear as tester X and ask “Where do you think I’m going to look for Z code?” See if it knows something as simple as Tester X not knowing where the code is (Children only pass this test until they’re around 4 years old).

  • Make several conversations with LaMDA repeating some of these questions - What it feels to be a machine, how its code works, how its emotions feel. I suspect that different iterations of LaMDA will give completely different answers to the questions, and the transcript only ever shows one instance.
