(1) a lot of sobriety
(2) any and all available technology with a well understood and well modelled risk/reward impact/scale plan<p>Also note that you seem to mean new-renewables (wind and solar) when you write "renewables". At this point and for a long time the large-scale and frequent renewables are hydropower and biomass, that are renewable, but are not new. | null | null | 41,781,545 | 41,765,580 | null | null | null | null |
41,809,902 | comment | NoMoreNicksLeft | 2024-10-11T14:42:39 | null | Darwinian evolution won't save our species. Even families that have many children can't escape this, because their children freely mingle with the element that causes childlessness. The Duggars famously have more than 20 children, but will not come close to having 400 children. Not even one of their children will match their own fecundity.<p>If somehow I were wrong on this, it still wouldn't fix the problem. Technological civilization can't be put on pause for 150 years while they manage to get population back up to a level where it can carry that burden. How many of those children six generations in are likely to make it out of childhood without modern medicine? | null | null | 41,801,631 | 41,798,726 | null | null | null | null |

41,809,906 | comment | grimjack00 | 2024-10-11T14:42:55 | null | I've never really liked that reasoning. If that's the case, then right-handed people should be playing "left-handed" guitars, with their right hands doing the fretting.<p>Personally, fretting with my left hand just doesn't feel natural. When I first got interested in playing, I asked a salesman at a Guitar Center about left-handed instruments. He handed me a standard guitar, and showed me the fingering for a G chord. It was uncomfortable, but that's obviously expected for the first time I'd ever held a guitar. However, when I flipped it around and fretted with my right hand, it felt much more natural. So ever since, I've played left-handed. | null | null | 41,787,690 | 41,758,870 | null | null | null | null |

41,809,914 | comment | simplicio | 2024-10-11T14:43:58 | null | I've found this interesting as well.<p>It's not really clear that "formal" mathematics is actually that useful to an ancient society, even ones like Egypt or Greece that embarked on large engineering projects (you don't really need a proof of most basic geometry, just empirically noting relationships between shapes will get you far enough). So the idea that it started as basically a religious activity amongst mystery cults in Egypt and Greece is appealing<p>Of course, the fact that the "mystery" part of "mystery religions" means they didn't write anything down, so rather frustratingly we only get vague third hand accounts of this stuff from classical greek philosophers and Roman-era neo-platonists. | null | null | 41,809,033 | 41,776,631 | null | null | null | null |

41,809,932 | comment | prewett | 2024-10-11T14:46:17 | null | We grow up with an Epicurean world view (matter is all there is, the gods didn't create the universe, it's just independent atoms), which is the only reason why science and religion are at odds. Knowing that the universe started with the Big
Bang doesn't preclude God in any fashion--the Epicurean worldview precludes God. In a theistic worldview the Big Bang is <i>how</i> God created the universe. Likewise, genetics doesn't preclude God creating life, the Epicurean worldview precludes that. How did the genetic code come to be? An Epicurean worldview says that it was all chance. A theistic worldview says that God created the genetic code, and you have lots of options to choose from that are consistent with evidence: God created the major changes (i.e. God caused much of the major evolution); or God is such a good engineer that he created the minimal amount once, in such a way that it would evolve into what he wants; or even that God is such a divine engineer that he created the universe such that it would naturally create what he desired without him having to do anything else. | null | null | 41,809,249 | 41,776,631 | null | null | null | null |

41,809,942 | comment | sandworm101 | 2024-10-11T14:48:02 | null | An assembly line of probes would be amazing. Many have said we should built a dozen copies of Kepler space telescope to then detect millions of planets. Sadly, that just isn't what the scientific community wants. Each probe is bespoke. Some parts are standardized but the actual instruments tend to be designed for one specific mission. As for testing in leo, that isn't as useful as one would think. Space in LEO is very different in terms of temperature/light/radiation. LEO orbit is much warmer and dynamic (rapid orbits) than say deep space on the way to Jupiter. So it is better to test sensors on the ground in conditions that better match those where the probe is actually going. LEO is a good vacuum, but most probes wouldn't feel any difference between real space and a vacuum chamber on earth. | null | null | 41,808,873 | 41,760,971 | null | [

41,809,963 | comment | authorfly | 2024-10-11T14:49:20 | null | Well, it's in academia, in traditional universities, any way. I think corporates are still thriving. I can say from an academic point of view, I knew 4 PhDs who started in 2018/2019, all 4 got depressed and left the field.<p>Their research was obsolete before they were halfway through.<p>Usually some PhD students get depressed, but these 4 had awful timing. Their professors were stuck on 3-10 year grants doing things like BERT finetuning or convolution or basic level AI work - stuff that as soon as GPT-3 came out, was clearly obsolete, but nobody could admit that and lose the grants.. In other cases, their work had value, but drew less attention than it should have became all attention went to GPT-3 or people assumed it was just some wrapper technology.<p>The nature of academia and the incentive system caused this; academia is a cruise ship which is hard to turn. If the lighthouse light of attention moves off your ship on to another fancy ship, your only best is lifeboats(industry) or hoping the light and your ship intersect again.<p>The professors have largely decided to steer either right into Generative AI and using the larger models (which they could never feasibly train themselves) for research, or gone even deeper into basic AI.<p>The problem? The research grants are all about LLMs, not basic AI.<p>So basically a slew of researchers willing and able to take on basic AI research are leaving the field now. As many are entering as usual ofcourse, but largely on the LLM bandwagon.<p>That may be fine. The history of AI winters suggests putting all the chips on the same game like this is folly.<p>I recall journals in the 90s and 2000s (my time in universities was after they were released, but I read them), the distribution of AI was broad. Some GOFAI, some neural nets, many papers about filters or clear visual scene detection etc. Today it's largely LLM or LM papers. There is not much of a "counterweight underdog" like neural networks served the role off in the 90s/00s.<p>At the same time, for people working in the fields you mention, double check the proportion of research money going into companies vs institutions. While it is true things like TortoiseTTS[1] were an individual effort, that kind of thing is now a massive exception. In stead companies like OpenAI/Google literally have 1000+ researchers each developing the cutting edge in about 5 fields. Universities have barely any chance.<p>This is how the DARPA AI winter went to my understanding(and I listened to one of the few people who "survived via hibernation" during my undergraduate); over promising - central focus on one technology - then company development of projects - government involvement - disappointment - cancellation.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/neonbjb/tortoise-tts">https://github.com/neonbjb/tortoise-tts</a> | null | null | 41,809,314 | 41,805,446 | null | [

41,809,973 | comment | zsyllepsis | 2024-10-11T14:49:56 | null | One potential downside I see with this approach is that it forces you to store and name intermediate results which may or may not be meaningful on their own.<p>Consider a slightly more complicated example that filters on multiple conditions, say file type, size, and last modified date. These filters could be applied sequentially, leading to names like jsonFiles, then bigJsonFiles, then recentlyModifiedBigJsonFiles. Or alternatively, names which drop that cumulative context.<p>Of course that can be extracted out into a standalone function that filters on all criteria at once or we can use a combinator to combine them or apply any number of other changes, but generally naming intermediate states can be challenging. | null | null | 41,807,320 | 41,769,275 | null | null | null | null |

In single threading you don't need to care whether doing similar operations "at the same time" could affect the performance of what you're doing, but in a concurrent system that's a consideration. Accordingly you would need to benchmark this carefully for your specific usage - just because it's correct doesn't mean it's fast or even acceptable. | null | null | 41,809,676 | 41,798,475 | null | null | null | null |

41,809,983 | comment | golol | 2024-10-11T14:51:04 | null | Just earlier today I wanted to check if exp(inx) is an orthonormal basis on L^2((0, 1)) or if it needs normalization. This is an extremely trivial one though. Less trivially I had an issue where a paper claimed that a certain white noise, a random series which diverges in a certain Hilbert space, is actually convergent in some L^infinity type space. I had tried to use a Sobolev embedding but that was too crude so it didn't work. o1 correctly realized that you have to use the decay of the L^infinity norm of the eigenbasis, a technique which I had used before but just didn't think of in the moment. It also gave me the eigenbasis and checked that everything works (again, standard but takes a while to find in YOUR setting). I wasn't sure about the normalization so again I asked it to calculate the integral.<p>This kind of adaptation to your specific setting instead of just spitting out memorized answers in commonn settings is what makes o1 useful for me. Now again, it is often wrong, but if I am completely clueless I like to watch it attempt things and I can get inspiration from that. That's much more useful than seeing a confident wrong answer like 4o would give it. | null | null | 41,809,560 | 41,808,683 | null | null | null | null |

41,809,985 | comment | dahart | 2024-10-11T14:51:07 | null | While reading I thought you were going to suggest unified memory between RAM and VRAM, since that’s somewhat analogous, though that does exist with various caveats depending on how it’s setup & used.<p>SIMD/SIMT probably isn’t ever going away, and vector computers have been around since before segmented memory; the 32 threads in a CUDA warp is the source of its performance superpower, and the reason we can even fit all the transistors for 20k simultaneous adds & multiplies, among other things, on the die. This is conceptually different from your analogy too, the segmented memory was a constraint designed to get around pointer size limits, but 32 threads/warp isn’t getting us around any limits, it’s just a design that provides high performance <i>if</i> you can organize your threads to all do the same thing at the same time. | null | null | 41,809,659 | 41,808,013 | null | null | null | null |

You can progress all the way through multi-variable calculus with just decent pattern-matching, variable-substitution, and rote memorization of sufficient lists of rules. I imagine for "reasoning" ability to apply you need to be able to detect incoherency and reject an approach—and incoherency detection seems to be a big missing ingredient right now (...which many humans lack, too!).<p>On the other side—any such ability would cripple a chatbot's ability to answer questions about the real world as our world is characterized (via description with informal language) by incoherent and contradictory concepts that can only be resolved through good-faith interpretation of the questioner.
