Is it only me or the titles of top books from History, Nature, and Politics sound very click-baiting? I'm really taken off by these titles.

Not really. The gpt-oss models were notoriously hard to remove the built in safety. It totally depends how it was trained.

DeepSeek series are open weights models. Assuming you have enough compute at hands you can always download their weights from https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai

Most (probably all) open model providers implement OpenAI-style API. If your app's already using OpenAI models, it's as simple as swapping the endpoint and the key to switch to these models.

2-3 years ago MAIR was on a roll with Llama 1 2 3, Zuck was on his rehab tour to be a cool guy, and Meta as a whole was pumping record numbers after record numbers. I can't believe how that falters so quickly after the addition of Alexdandr Wang.

Biden kept a lot of Trump's policies inact, he just wasn't loud about it.

No chance the world powers (US, China, France, UK, etc.) will allow something like that unless they are the one who create and enforce it. It's basically the first line of defense for homeland security: don't let terrorists into your country.

Not for airlines and international cruise ships with US as destination. The attendants won't let you board unless you have a valid US visas. Carriers get fined if they transport individuals with no proper documents to a US port of entry.

Tbf Israel has more concern than travelers' comfort, given everything happening around them AND maybe within them too.

Your profile probably flagged some checks so they needed to get your fingerprints to actually confirm you are the one on the visa. I've never had to give fingerprints except for my first US visa.

It depends. In my country the online land register data is just a copy of the physical land owning certificate. The physical certificates (1 for the owner, 1 for the local government, and at least 1 more for some document keeping agency) are the source of truth.

Happens far more often than you would think in developing countries.

Multiple rockets exploded and space missions failed because of the imperial vs. metric BS, and those mistakes were made by people all with PhDs or equivalences. This is still pretty mild in comparison haha.

Units and datetime will always be the bane of any professions ...

That was just a massive operational failure, not the fault of any single engineer. No change, except hotfixes, should be able to land on prod unless it has at least go through test, staging, and at the scale of Amazon, shadow testing.

Engineers will do what engineers will always want to do, they want to see how things break, and sometimes they manage to fix it.

wtf is this nonsense? Compared to the OP I personally think you are the one who needs help, or at least stop consuming media from whatever sources you are consuming right now,

ew Theo's words mean absolute jack** though, he's just a grade A a*hole attention grabbers.

Yep, the truth is nobody cares when people start submitting dozens of PRs a day with a bunch of AI-generated code reviews attached to it, all saying everything looks good. I'm witnessing this happening at my workplace right now: Sr/Staff uses Claude to generate 10 pages of design document, Jr uses Claude/Cursor to generate a humongous commit based on this document and create a PR, then bunch of automated AI-based code reviews kick in and say this looks good, another Sr/Staff takes a glance and rubber stamp it, while looking at the company's stock value and/or OpenAI/Anthropic job description.

It's a shit show.

That 20 guests on a PJ are probably worth more than a fully booked 747. Price has always been set based how much customers are willing pay, not based on the value it creates.

Holy cow how can they raise over $70B every year for 8 years straight? Who is investing this much?

Essentially yes? The stock market operates entirely on the assumption that the lines will keep going up. As soon as they flatten the whole thing collapses onto itself.

What kind of logic is this? It's standard in the Linux world to give important services a separate user domain.

He started Youtube with this cool retired dad vibes. It went down hill pretty fast after just a couple videos.

If this were on LinkedIn it would go straight to r/linkedinlunatics

This is stupid if true. I doubt it though, given France does have appeal courts, implying the opposite of the OP's comment.

What does that even mean? There must be a software stack somewhere feeding the inputs to the model. Do you mean the weights are baked in sillicon?

The experiment to observe this behavior is pretty simple though (Young's double slit), and it was conducted more than 200 years ago. The explanation came much later but it's not like the phenomenon was hiding somewhere.

10,000 square meters sound suspiciously small for a datacenter, even more so if you have to account for supporting facility? Maybe a small one? it's just 100m by 100m, which is smaller than most Walmart Supercenter.

JSD is just symmetrized KL, it's the forward KL + reverse KL.

In reinforcement learning, usually what we want is to find the optimal action, i.e. action that maximizes the reward, this translates to the so-called "mode-seeking" optimization, which is the reverse KL.

On the battery size, 122kWh is actually pretty large for this size. Most Teslas have <100kWh batteries and they all have better or similar range.

Yeah that's actually rather inefficient. Tesla Model Y has 84kWh battery and a range of 300 miles.
