Those 3,028 people, or 0.000036% of the global population, hold more than 99% of all wealth.

The actual number is closer to 9% than 99%. This is probably some kind of mutation from “the combined wealth of billionaires is larger than the GDP of 99% of countries” where notably yearly income and wealth are not directly comparable.

Better (and true) things to say are “The global top 1% have more wealth than the bottom 95% combined” or “The richest 0.01% in the US have tripled their wealth in the last 30 years, while 90% of people have been treading water”

it’s

while (true) {
    let t = Date.now();
    if (timeoutMap.has(t)) timeoutMap[t]();
}

of course. Clearly O(n).

Probably

So I wondered a bit how much it actually affects the economy.

“S&P 500” companies’ market cap is about 57 trillion dollars with a P/E ratio of about 30. So openai by itself is dragging down the total s&p 500 earnings by only about 0.5%. The bigger problem is that there are multiple companies like openAI, and a large chunk of the entire economy’s valuation is tied to the promise that all the AI companies will somehow become profitable sometime soon.

Nah, it was found sometime before november 24 2021, publicly disclosed in december 9 2021, and only used by 2b2t players on december 10 2021.

The small amount of sales of doom 2 today is not at all comparable to the massive amount of minecraft sales and minecraft-related microtransactions that microsoft is raking in. Doom has many modern sequels that are far more popular today than doom 2, while minecraft does not have any official sequel.

“You want to use teams a bit? We have a session here” “I’d be happy to, actually. Not really, but it wouldn’t be bad” “Not really? If you say so, I have a teams session ready right here” “No. No. I’m not stupid” “People use it every day.” “Tell the truth” “It’s a good user experience.” “So are you ready to use it? For 5 minutes?” “No, I’m not an idiot.”

They already have almost all of the discrete gpu market, they’d have to expand to new markets (although they are kind of exploring that already)

Originally planned to post it in this format but thought too much reaction within reaction would be bad (and including mr. theo ai glazer felt questionable)

I wish I knew

club penguin (it’s ok, the twitter reply formatting is impossible to understand)

You were the one that brough up the comparison in the first place.

I was going to say there was no actual evidence, but huh, I actually fell for some of the tankie lies after enough time. China’s deputy health minister Huang Jiefu repeatedly publicly acknowledged that most organ transplants came from death row inmates, and separately China was exporting organs to south korea on a massive scale prior to 2007.

(though it’s notable that this has not been connected to the Uyghur situation specifically)

(Also noting that it’s Israel claimed to end the practice in 2000, while China claimed to end the practice in 2015)

and with a good enough leak, the amount of unused memory will become negative!

The oxford that says this?

Acronym

1. A group of initial letters used as an abbreviation for a name or expression, each letter or part being pronounced separately; an initialism

or the merriam webster that says this?

Some people feel strongly that acronym should only be used for terms like NATO, which is pronounced as a single word, and that initialism should be used if the individual letters are all pronounced distinctly, as with FBI. Our research shows that acronym is commonly used to refer to both types of abbreviations.

I remember tab groups showing up one day by themselves maybe a week ago, and then I quickly clicked about two buttons and now they’re totally gone and I almost forgot they were a thing. But likely if I had summarily clicked 2 different buttons it might have been turned on without me realizing it, and that would cause the model to be downloaded and the CPU cycles to be spent (at least if I kept the tab groups on)

wrestle a gorilla and win, obviously

Well eh, the binary seems to be about 130MB while the ffmpeg source repository is only 80MB (and the version with separate .so files (all part of the project as far as I can see) is even larger)

buffer overflows are critical for memory safety since they can cause silent data corruption (bad) and remote code execution (very bad). Compared to those a “clean” unhandled runtime error is far preferable in most cases.

We can avoid expensive branches (gasp) by using some bitwise arithmetic to achieve the so-called “absolute value”, an advanced hacker technique I learnt at Blizzard. Also unlike c, c# is not enlightened enough to understand that my code is perfect so it complains about “not all code paths returning a value”.

private bool IsEven(int number)
{
    number *= 1 - 2*(int)(((uint)number & 2147483648) >> 31);
    if (number > 1) return IsEven(number - 2);
    if (number == 0) return true;
    if (number == 1) return false;
    throw new Exception();
}
