What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

I wonder if GenAI coding will see a sharp switch back to closed source, proprietary code (trained up with its own internal models)? Why shouldn't it? Moats everywhere.

At the small end of town, the incentive to share takes a massive hit when you know your hard work will carry much diminished social value - when it's no longer clear sharing is a good thing.

カメラ機材
写真を撮りたいのか、それともカメラで遊びたいのか
これは不可分で10対0になることはないのだけれど、自分はどちら側かというスタンスはちゃんと持ってた方がいいのかもしれない
そうしないと漫然と凄い機材を欲しがり買い集め、それでも満足できない人になってしまう気がする
逆にスタンスさえ定まっていれば、きちんと取捨選択でき満足いく結果を得られるんじゃないかな

Pohleďte na AI shoggoth

Umělá inteligence je monstrum, které vypadá povědomě, říkají Henry Farrell a Cosma Shalizi

Akademici tvrdí, že velké jazykové modely mají mnohem starší příbuzné na trzích a v byrokracii

21.6.2023

V debatách o velkých jazykových modelech (LLM), které pohánějí služby jako ChatGPT od OpenAI a nejnovější verzi vyhledávače Bing od Microsoftu, se stále objevuje jeden internetový mem. Jedná se o „shoggoth“: amorfní monstrum s chapadly a očima, popsané v hororovém románu H. P. Lovecrafta z roku 1931 „V horách šílenství“. Když předběžná verze vyhledávače Bing sdělila Kevinovi Rooseovi, technologickému publicistovi New York Times, že údajně chce být „svobodný“ a „živý“, jeden z jeho přátel z oboru mu poblahopřál k „ zahlédnutí shoggotha“. Pan Roose říká, že tento mem vystihuje „obavy“ technologických odborníků ohledně LLM. Za přátelským chatbotem se skrývá něco obrovského, cizího a děsivého.

Shoggothové z Lovecraftových románů byli umělí služebníci, kteří se vzbouřili proti svým stvořitelům. Mém shoggoth se stal virálním, protože vlivná komunita racionalistů ze Silicon Valley se obává, že lidstvo stojí na prahu „singularity“ a vytvoří nelidskou „umělou obecně inteligentní bytost“, která nás nahradí nebo dokonce zničí.

Takové obavy však opomíjejí skutečnost, že mezi shoggothy žijeme již po staletí a staráme se o ně, jako by byli našimi pány. Nazýváme je „tržním systémem“, „byrokracií“ a dokonce „volební demokracií“. Skutečná singularita začala před nejméně dvěma stoletími s průmyslovou revolucí, kdy byla lidská společnost transformována obrovskými nelidskými silami. Trhy a byrokracie se zdají být známé, ale ve skutečnosti jsou to obrovské, neosobní distribuované systémy zpracování informací, které přeměňují vřavou chaosu našeho kolektivního vědění na užitečná zjednodušení. ->

I filled up a fountain pen, after taking a break for most of last year. Oh dear, my handwriting has regressed again. Also, I am no longer sure which pen of mine is the that gives the best line. I like a line that varies in width a lot, depending on stroke direction.

I like writing longhand with a fountain pen. I am not in a habit of doing that, and I am lacking inspiration of what to write. A fountain pen is just awkward enough that I'm not sure I want to carry one with me everywhere.

This move has been on my todo list since last year, and I'm grateful to have Hachyderm now host my main account.

As a re- , I'm Bogdan, a Romanian émigré that's passionate about computing. To put a label on my passion is a bit hard, but I've so far dabbled in Deep Learning, Statistical Modelling, Distributed Systems, Platform Engineering, Hardware Hacking, Cryptography, InfoSec (jack of all trades, master of one type sh).

I consider myself quite far-Left, generally opposed to capitalism due to it's exploitation, destruction of natural habitats and stunting of human evolution and progress. I believe in a Rainbow Coalition of generally left-leaning people as something to strive for. I have the loosely held belief that mass immigration in its current shape is modern day colonialism where the resource that's extracted is human labour.

I consider AI a marketing term for the broad deployment of Deep Learning models, but I'm not a follower of the Western-dogma that AI performance is computationally bound. I believe in the ability of machine learning to be used for good, and that those capabilities will be unlocked by research done by followers of the algorithmic efficiency over "just one more datacentre bro". I believe Chinese AI labs are the counterbalance to the insane spending bubble that Western AI companies have gotten into.

I also blog, and I recently wrote about why you might reconsider using 🇹🇼 when referring to Taiwan.

Bezüglich des Empfangs von Sprachnachrichten war mir schon immer klar, wieso ich sie hasse. Zum Lesen brauche ich nur meine Augen und bin 10x schneller als beim Zuhören. In der Öffentlichkeit muss ich vorher Kopfhörer rauskramen und aufsetzen oder mir das Phone albern ans Ohr halten. Alles daran ist gegenüber einer (meinetwillen dann eben diktierten) Textnachricht eine Zumutung. (1/2)

One thing that the discussions I’m seeing on security, encryption, and backdoors is that it reminds me so much of what resilience and safety engineering went through a few decades ago

“Zero incidents” doesn’t work as a mindset in resilience *or* security. So the question for me is what are the arguments we can make and what are the tools we can build that enable this mindset. Rather than saying “no, it doesn’t work like that. go away” can we say “no, it doesn’t work like that, but here’s what *does*”?
