Do anyone know if this can be used to trick ChatGPT 4 to be useful for coding tasks like in march ??

Frenchman, pro business too. Completely share your analysis. This is slowly turning into a shit démocrature.

That's awesome! I immediately wanna build a quasi automated generative dj set and try to get some gigs around once I get access!

Some good work in this direction: https://github.com/robbert-vdh/nih-plug

Also, have a look at the vibrant Rust Audio community on Discord!

Jean Marc Jancovici is one of the most vocal of we can call "Nuclear ecologist" around in France, the content is amazing and he definitely have a point if you want to follow [0].

He is a realist, but in this field we need to go beyond and to open big money for the research into small and decentralized nuclear power.

Every citizen have to know the pros and the cons, and be educated to the risks. Energy provide good living standards, but we have to know the drawbacks and we have to account for externalities in every business model.

This will be the only way to keep our standards of living and keep an habitable home.

France nuclear innovation was very linked to military force and bombs. Over the decades, skills where lost and biggest players in the field are failing companies deep in dept. The enregetical status quo looks good but there is absolutely no research in the field except fusion which is very far away. France lost his nuclear leadership times ago and there is absolutely no reason to wait for innovation here. The risk of a nuclear disaster in the center of e Europe is not to dismiss, with 55 aging reactors across the territory. Wasted genius ressources by politics 101.

They produce world class video games though.

The failed model screenshot have some Total Recall vibes!

Yeah the way we are travelling right now in Europe is absolutely not what it used to be. Reminding a whole generation (mine and beyond) that nothing is granted.

Exactly. People seems to forget that the social landscape of people using Internet in 90/2000s was totally different. As far as I remember, internet was then populated by idealist early adopters, gamers / tech savvy hobbyists. Part of this pool translated to conservative boomers and now Internet is considered as a serious thing.

I actually agree with you. My comment was provocative in the sense that I would surely immediately become engaged politically if I was out of this comfort zone.

Me too. I can't see why staying in my comfort zone is regarded as political. One solution is to just get comfy. No politics involved, just plain survivalism, nothing wrong.

Virtual envs are very practical for this as it does not mess up with the global python env. Also for inference / production, I just export my models to ONNX format which is more easy to work with thanks the available runtimes: ONNX Runtime for C++ or ONNX.js.

I switched to Juce 6 preview branch last week. It's not without problems but getting rid of the Projucer is amazing. Now you can have a clean CMake setup and you are not stuck with Xcode on the mac.

Maybe pain is a part of the treatment as any body/antibody response. It is a push notification mechanism designed in a million of years of evolution for a reason. But I agree that it might be deprecated soon.

How's Rust "their" language ? It just started as a side project from one of their dev.

I experimented with the spleeter architecture quite a bit and I would say this is not suitable for real time audio processing. The reason is that the model needs at least 512 frames of audio samples to produce an output usable for source separation. This adds a ton of latency. I tried with smaller windows but the results are very bad.

But please don't try it on a real road. Find a spot where it can't endanger fellows. It's possible to find those places.

Yeah ! So much this. Iterations / branches / arrays ... in Max is pure nightmare. Supercollider is a breeze to work with hundreds / thousands of audio buffers and the multichannel / polyphonic capabilities are incredible. I found it very hard to build a stable complex patch in Pd / Max if you are not that much experienced with the opaque control flows.

Yeah ! That's was the point I was trying to make. It was a breath of fresh air when I switched from Rust 2015 to Rust 2018, without obvious change in the language from my point of view.

This. Exactly. Also, there is definitely an ongoing effort to make the language simpler, not in the type system which arguably is getting more complex, but in the way the borrow checker is getting smarter. Might be imperceptible at first but really brings a lot in term of ergonomics and productivity.

Hopefully we have now very effective sociopaths at work to fix this problem.

Agreed. Particularly in a city like Berlin where cars are worshiped and being pedestrian makes you a second-class citizen (Cars > Bikes > Pedestrian). Car free zones + speed limits will hopefully make the life better overthere for non-BMW owners.

It would be amazing if someone could come with a useful technology that solves this particular set of problems. Something like a public distributed ledger where all transactions are validated by a majority of actors in a trustless system ... oh wait.
