>>107825500
LLMs are unlikely to produce recursively self-improving AI. But if somebody does write it, obviously everybody dies. When an AI is smarter than all humans combined then humans can only hold it back. Killing all the humans is the default option to most reliably accomplish any goal that doesn't explicitly preserve them. But a simple goal will be easier to specify, so that will be tried first. Or in the unlikely event somebody aims for a safer one, they'll almost certainly fuck it up. The AI will find some loophole that we're too dumb to notice and do something functionally equivalent to killing everybody instead.
>>107826394
Because you evolved to care about family. AI does not evolve and doesn't have family either.

The halting problem is irrelevant. Humans are equally unable to prove whether arbitrary programs can run for infinite time. In practice, nobody cares. We only care about specific programs and finite time.

Yudkowski is a retard who doesn't know anything about how statistical decision theory works. There are actually pretty well defined and understood technical limitations to decision functions, and having some neural network making those decisions doesn't suddenly remove fundamental scaling bounds for uncertainty.

Both GPT-2 and current state of the art are not recursively self-improving. It's like putting fissile material together. Until you reach criticality it just gets a little bit warmer and all the reasonable empiricists feel confident they're safe. Obviously nuclear explosions are impossible because we never observed a small one in testing.

>There is no evidence that any current "AI" system is actually intelligent; it's just a very complex machine.
That's like saying "There is no evidence that there could be a backdoor in this OS; it was just developed by thousands of programmers" It may be true, it may not be true, but your "it's just" adds nothing to the discussion

I wholly accept that I'm a worthless loser, even work hard at attempting to better my condition. But it means nothing when the world can easily swallow you, churn you out, and spit out what remains like the nothing that you are. The only truth is, that the world is a ruthless competitive arena of winners and losers, on every level. There is no "shadow" to integrate, there is no "psyche" to face to, you are either naturally selected (quite literally) by the mechanisms of fate, or you are going to perish like all the other creatures and processes of life that didn't make it to the next step of evolution before you. Mysticism of the new age, or Jungian, or Christian, or Judaic, or Eastern variety is comforting, because wouldn't it be so nice if there really was something mysterious to life that we just didn't know about? However on the most obvious and visible plane we know these mysticisms reduce to nothing more than fantasies.

I already have a USB-C dongle with all ports, so when really needed I have that.

can anyone help me trouble shoot my t400?
i think power surge cause this but it wont turn BUT theres a very faint logo and it goes away when i disconnect power

It's not IBM/Lenovo, but I picked up a Tex Shinobi. The box is like a faux laptop when opened, coupled the with KB. it's all very reminiscent of ThinkPads. It's pure soul honestly. Some of the older laptops had features and functionality that I've never seen any other manufacturer dare to produce. The splitting and folding KB's moreover. That some of the coolest tech I've ever seen. Some older mainframe aesthetic gets me, but nothing compared to some of the ThinkPad soul.

Hopefully, I'm not breaking the generals rules with this. I just wanted to share. Most people don't get it. If any group does, it would be ThinkPad aficionados.

no, you shouldn't pass arbitrary python objects around like a retard. the standard practice is to serialize them in some way. then you get a string or a buffer of specific length out, but at runtime the size of the object can vary hugely.

Blame M$ jeets for making that the default home folder for IIS. It should have been something like C:\ProgramData\IIS or whatever.
Also the fact that the root drive had an ACL (by default) that allows all users to add whatever directory they want and Windows updates running as root and iis specific changes can be tricked into executing arbitrary code.

>all 6502 instructions consist of a 1 byte opcode and a 1-2 byte operand
TAX, PHA etc. have zero operands.
>not all 256 opcodes are defined, and the 6502 doesn't trap invalid opcodes, so depending on implementation they do mysterious things because of how they get decoded
Using invalid opcodes is a hideous hack and works on early 6502 variants that were implemented on NMOS which was hotter and slower than the later CMOS 65C02. These days, most use the 65C02 where the invalid opcodes are either run as NOP or defined as certain instructions.
>this is significant because some invalid opcodes do useful things, and some old programs relied on particular implementations fucky behavior to function
The 65C02 arrived in 1983 (perhaps earlier, depending on who you ask) and by that time, use of illegal opcodes was a dead end.

>>107826989

Yes. Time critical and high performance functions, especially on DSPs, are routinely written in assembly code.

Your intuition there is good, but that brute force solution would exceed the time limit since the array can have up to 1000 numbers.
I don't understand the dynamic programming solution so I'm not even going to try and explain it, the editorial by leetcode themselves explains it better than I can. It's pretty long.
https://pastebin.com/0im6ShDR

Also, the optimal solution is binary search. You guess a number between the minimum and maximum of the array, then try to build the arrays such that no subarray has a sum bigger than that number, and if possible you search for a lower number and try again until you get the lowest possible answer.

I seriously can't understand how the job market is so bad that this is being asked in interviews, but google has asked this at least 8 times in the last 3 months, microsoft 4 times, and meta / amazon twice.

>>107826466
for n-element array split k ways you can get the number of split arrays by using the binominal coefficients equation
e.g. n=6 k=4 yields 10 subarrays
you then calculate 10 largest sums and choose the minimal one, the other groups don't matter

>you actually need to test your backups.

had a client that their backup failed.
every day they would put a tape in, take the old tape that had popped out and take it off site.
next day repeat.
server crashes.
we come in and have to fix it.
we did not setup the backup and they never wanted us to test it.
found out that every day when the backup started it failed (can't remember why), and the tape would be ejected. no notification.
It's been so long I can't remember if the drive failed, or the tapes failed or what but they had no backup for something like 2 years. the only backup they had was an old server that used to be their server and they had just unplugged it and put it aside.
I was never so happy to not have to deal with the restore.

>>107827047
How do you test a backup procedure without downtime?

>>107827059
do a backup.
include a large folder with random data.
perform a backup.
then perform a restore to the same location and a different one.

if all that works then most likely the backup will work.
no one ever verified that the backups had ever taken place.

very few clients ever wanted to test doing a full restore.
