why not just create a wrapper type for the payload that is returned by func1 and func2 takes it as a parameter?

Yes and no. The big advantage of a GUI is having interactive 2D coordinate input support (aka a pointer, or gestures.) While I think a keyboard can be a great control surface, that’s one thing it really lacks and only GUIs really offer. So to enforce that the whole GUI must be keyboard-drivable requires limiting the major advantage of the GUI. I’m a fan of the Emacs or Plan9 styles where the keyboard and pointer are able to be used together synergistically. You also see some of this in tools like video, DAW, and 2D/3D graphical scene editors.

There is no moral imperative to help the world reach an optimum. Rather, the world is full of competing interests.

“I am actually the CEO of my basement office business” was not the corporate topology I was addressing with my comment.

You’re presuming here that CEOs cause companies to make profit instead of serving as a scapegoat for their often unavoidable market dynamics (at best).

Welcome to the future of the internet. Donate some social credits to a starving open-source maintainer and we might let you off with a warning

The prevailing mentality seems to be that if we don’t win in the next three quarters it will be such a catastrophe that there won’t be a future at all.

In my experience xhigh very often produces better results on the first try to the extent that the less cogitation-enthused settings actually waste more in the long run.

Ehh, it’s at least given as the excuse for gain-of-function bioweapon research

It’s hard for me to understand why this was downvoted since it’s plainly a simple fact.

This must be the most utterly trivializing summary of the 20th century I have ever seen in my life

Big line go up!

Their use in writing has exploded because they can produce a ton of content quickly and people don’t want to put in the effort themselves, not because they are better than humans.

If there will be any Butlerian Anything, it will be a reaction to the excruciatingly pathetic attempts at legislating the problem into a slightly smaller problem.

I’m imagining a dystopian panopticon future of paid subs to “hot or not” Flock scrapes and the bozos who would defend it as a good exercise of free speech and the rights of capital

Please, if you are a bozo and this sounds like a good idea to you, consider getting your head checked instead of picking up the ball and running with it

sounds like a repeatable method of optimizing quantization to me, friend

QAT is an optimizing quantization algorithm, not naive quant.

My ragebait good. Your ragebait bad.

Sometimes it’s just that a particular backend is poorly optimized or has a regression on a particular platform as compared to the “mainstream” backends. For example, whisper.cpp’s Vulkan backend performs 2-3x worse than CPU on my Snapdragon X2 laptop when using the ggerganov v3 turbo model. It’s probably a simple fix, but it does need to be fixed.

I think there will definitely still be people interested in understanding these sorts of things (that is: solving CTF’s without automatic assistance), even if at the end of the day they solve them using automation when it comes to a professional context. What I am more afraid of is people giving up and losing hope that there is any reason for humans to develop and understand systems. We need to keep in mind that even very powerful automation is still a tool for a human to make use of, and that is something I’m not confident many people are able to be conscious of. It’s a little like believing that an advanced CNC machine makes carpentry pointless to practice or understand, since now a computer can just do it.

I think GP was just making a point about the fact that “tired” is a subjective experience, like pain. Arguably, if you’re on pain medication, you’re not in pain, even if your body is sending pain signals that your brain just isn’t receiving or paying attention to.

I think it’s less like a robot conspiracy to build more datacenters and more like a “big line go up or I lose my job / make slightly fewer billions of dollars” motive that kind of ends up at paperclips either way.

Having a slop factory prioritize and summarize my abandoned tabs into an ever growing prioritizable list of detritus when I close my browser is something I might actually glean some utility from

Ah yes, unlike Gemini which explains exactly what it does and has no other matches.

what’s wrong with the name Bard?

It’s horrible to think that this kind of creative handiwork could be replaced entirely by automatic processes within my lifetime. It’s reminiscent of how blacksmithing and weaving have almost entirely been replaced by machine process, except that those industries were mostly drudgery, at best. Maybe to the artisan coloring animated films, their work becomes drudgery too. But even if it is objectively more efficient to mechanize, something of the humanity of the craft has left even those simple things, that touched daily life of people in their local community, and has now been replaced by efficient, cost-optimized plain commodity. Probably looking back at such things romantically now would have seemed very silly at the time — it’s just a tool, a garment, or an implement — but hindsight makes it seem so much more alive than the dead plastic and stamped sheet metal things of today, and even now people will still sometimes pay a premium for handmade simple objects.

I hope at least that even if many creative artisan industries are devoured by the efficiency demon, many people will still have a fondness for true artwork and handicraft, and be willing to pay those talented souls the true value of their offerings.

Still, when a huge factory can make millions of garments far more cheaply than an army of weavers and sewers can be paid to, it’s hardly a surprise if the craftwork shop closes its doors. Food for thought.

Perhaps they should be left as a warning to others.

what if it was paid for as part of your internet subscription and you had more than enough credits for all your current internet usage?

wouldn’t it actually feel good to patronize websites you were interested in with actual direct value instead of everyone relying on spyware and obnoxious spam covering content directed at you?

you trust the service provider but not the router?

weird, but ok

The article explains why, indirect and unique_ptr are templated and require the complete definition of the type, and the default impls of those methods use methods of the templated types.
