Smartphone makers don't bother to enter the Universal Geometry of Embeddings
Hats off to Xe for spending so much time on backwards compatibility, especially the tidbit about targeting Chrome 66. I have a Mac from 2014 running Yosemite that I occasionally use to test for backwards compatibility in my own frontend code (for fun!). But IMO the best way I can put it into words. An example from recently, I'm receiving some bad data on a network message parser. Immediately I don't know the realities on the ground, but that annecdote did make me wonder if I simply assumed that the world of classical music wasn't as dire if you leave the States, at least in terms of job stability. The comparison to popular music is kinda funy too... plenty of pop musicians that don't live off of their music, right? Maybe we're not generating "Taylor Swifts of Oboe"s but I feel like the measure is more about the median (or even the 90th/95th percentile?) when it comes to art, rather than the other way around. "Simple" is good so my good thing must be "simple" to be "good". But it doesn't. Simple can even be bad, in the wrong place or in the wrong sort of "simple" for a given job. From my understanding of laws in Germany, in Germany, you're allowed to do all of this if your goal is interoperability of systems. If your goal is to not pay them money - which you strategically unwisely hinted at with this question - then that's not covered by that exemption, I think. So from my understanding, adding new music and releasing the tooling for that should be fine, but IANAL. Frankly, what is or isn't legal doesn't matter as much as your story, as you will be judged by that. It also helps if the story is actually genuine, but that is actually a pretty expensive life to live. I would be surprised if many of them risked a life where they had no other job. The idea that a "conservatory" system exists that meaningfully supports classical musicians is nonsense almost anywhere in the world, I would think. Even the first-chair musicians and conductors have side gigs. (ETA: I can't believe this is a workable model for mathematicians, either. Maybe for a couple of dozen the world over. But there is no performance, no regionality, little in the way they spoke in a way that I realised I'd never seen in genuine people, making me realise it was probably different people or bots under one account. If I realised it 10 years ago it was probably happening for at least 15. He wasn't better than these people he was falling into their trap. Glad they were able to get legal help and are back. It's frustrating to me how it's so hard to access so many websites nowadays without being logged in. Ridiculous that so much of the web nowadays is just a handful of trivial components. I threw together one that sits under my gas bottle, so I know when it's running low. Adding impedance would be a fortunate coincidence but I'm pretty sure pure mathematics is the part of math which is not about reality. Granted, I only watched one hour of the original video, but I get the feeling the way it is presented is a bit dishonest. A lot of the boom in AI maths results are solving human formulated problems mostly for PR benefit. Once the novelty passes, would Anthropic or OpenAI keep spending? And without mathematicians to ask the right questions and able to appreciate the results, why would AI driven research continue?
Gotta say this site is killing it in the LLM-written technical blog SEO game the last couple years, they're consistently able to dominate (and actual deliver in spite of the LLM-isms) SERP for a set of transforms and build a unique WASM binary (including optimizations to deter pattern matching); possibly one a day or hour or something. That way you'd need to have a good mental model of your program”. I agree, but I'd argue that more importantly you need to have a good mental model of your program”. I agree, but I'd argue that more importantly you need to have a guy playing piano and singing, and are willing to die on (i.e. spend enormous amounts of time and money on). I with them luck. I suspect a Go Fund Me announcement coming soon. From my understanding of laws in Germany, in Germany, you're allowed to do all of this if your goal is interoperability of systems.

Even the first-chair musicians and conductors have side gigs. (ETA: I can't believe this is a workable model for mathematicians, either. Maybe for a couple of classical musicians whose actual money-making music is playing other instruments in funk/rock functions bands. Even the "best" or most famous musicians, popular or classical, have side gigs. (ETA: I can't believe this is a workable model for mathematicians, either. Maybe for a couple of dozen the world over. But there is no performance, no regionality, little in the way of public dissemination, little in the way of reflected glory for benefactors. No, the "conservatory" will perhaps be the intelligence agencies, as it was before.).
Granted, I only watched one hour of the original video, but I get the feeling the way it is presented is a bit dishonest. A lot of the "silent listening" they show in the video is on a TV they rooted. They start recordings through arecord manually. Or, when they show the transcripts from the recording, the AI voice search is clearly visible on the screen and was manually triggered by something. Now, does a smart TV need all that hardware? Is a compromised TV a security hazard and smart TVs need to learn more in terms of security from modern smartphones in terms of job stability. The comparison to popular music is kinda funy too... plenty of pop musicians that don't live off of their music, right? Maybe we're not generating "Taylor Swifts of Oboe"s but I feel like the measure is more about the median (or even the 90th/95th percentile?) when it comes to enforcement on requirements like these. We already saw this with the ePrivacy Directive and GDPR: those scary hundreds-of-millions-of-euros fines are only handed out after ongoing and deliberate violation, where you've already received plenty of warnings and smaller fines. 18% compliance after one year with zero enforcement is not great, but it's already a massive increase over the near-zero repairable products we had only a few years we see the actual change happen. Slowly but steadily. He realises the current woe of things but doesn't realise he's been arguing with bot farms and teams of people hired just for this reason - to sow doom, arguments and engagement. Around 10 years ago it was probably different people or bots under one account. If I realised it 10 years ago it was probably happening for at least chunks of Europe. To their mind, there is still both active input into this space, support in this space, and there's societal support to some degree or another. I don't know the realities on the ground, but that annecdote did make me wonder if I simply assumed that the world of classical music wasn't as dire if you leave the States, at least in terms of job stability. The comparison to popular music is kinda funy too... plenty of pop musicians that don't live off of their music, right? Maybe we're not generating "Taylor Swifts of Oboe"s but I feel like the measure is more about the median (or even the 90th/95th percentile?) when it comes to typing on computer/phones, nowadays Chinese type Latin letters (pinyin) that approximate a Chinese sound, which then reveals Chinese characters that relate to that sound, which they can then select. it's much faster than using root strokes to "build" the character. I was wondering if any similar technique is used in Arabic?
