Sauf que les gens qui ne font pas d'études ont une espérance de vie plus faible. C'est normal qu'il puissent prendre leur retraite plus tôt.

C'est ce qui me gênait le plus dans la réforme de Macron. L'augmentation de l'âge minimum pour la retraite touche plus les précaires qu'une augmentation des années de cotisations.

En tant qu'ingénieur, j'ai un travail bien moins pénible qu'un ouvrier, c'est normal que je prenne une retraite plus tardive.

including the Slogan: 'From the river to the sea – Palestine shall be free'

As it should, this phrase and it's Israeli counterpart "between the sea and the Jordan there will be only Israeli sovereignty" are often accompanied by calls for mass deportation at best and genocide at worst.

These sentences are not bad on their own, but the parties from which they originate (Hamas and Likud) have transparent desires for war crimes and genocide.

“They had Polish refugee status certificates for the adults and Polish ID cards for the children. These people were taken to the police station for further investigation,” said von Vegesack. He added that, after their legal situation was confirmed, the family had to be sent back to Poland.

According to the spokesman, German officials informed the Polish border guard about the situation through the Polish-German Centre for Cooperation of Border, Police and Customs Services in Świecko.

“Since there was no reaction from the Polish side for several hours, the officers decided to take the family to the Polish-German border…in order to release them to Poland,” said von Vegesack.

The article above should be more "polish refugees left alone in Poland by German police" rather than the current one which suggests that Germany is getting rid of its migrants illegally.

Depuis janvier 2021, il est conseiller politique auprès de la délégation générale de La République en marche. Jérôme Peyrat est condamné en 2020 pour violences conjugales sur son ancienne compagne, ce qui le conduit à renoncer à sa candidature aux élections législatives de 2022.

Il finit par se représenter aux élections législatives anticipées de 2024 malgré les polémiques que sa candidature lève

Le petit filou, il a attendu qu'on l'oublie. Je ne comprends pas pourquoi les partis politiques tiennent autant à garder ces éléments.

Huh, your comment made look if there were personalized recommendation algorithms running on lemmy. From what I found, it appears that Lemmy does not use personalized recommendation algorithms : https://join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html

The specific function used for ranking is here : https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/4ba6221e04ab3e186669aeaa890d23b1e3f3d1a9/crates/db_schema/replaceable_schema/utils.sql#L18

I'm wondering how hard it would be to adapt the code to customize the score for every user, instead of it being global.

I makes it look like the advancement here is finding methods to efficiently use sets of graphs which are an order of magnitude larger than prior methods could use for training? They also seem to have used more sets of graphs than prior models across a wider set of domains. Am I reading this correctly?

I find it challenging to gauge the paper's impact fully, as this isn't my area of expertise. However, the ability to use diverse graphs in a single model surprised me and seemed worth sharing.

Separately, Jong has also alleged that Apple subjected her to a hostile work environment after a senior member of her team, Blaine Weilert, sexually harassed her. After she complained, Apple investigated and Weilert reportedly admitted to touching her "in a sexually suggestive manner without her consent," the complaint said. Apple then disciplined Weilert but ultimately would not allow Jong to escape the hostile work environment, requiring that she work with Weilert on different projects. Apple later promoted Weilert.

As a result of Weilert's promotion, the complaint said that Apple placed Weilert in a desk "sitting adjacent" to Jong's in Apple’s offices. Following a request to move her desk, a manager allegedly "questioned" Jong's "willingness to perform her job and collaborate" with Weilert, advising that she be “professional, respectful, and collaborative,” rather than honoring her request for a non-hostile workplace.

French here we use both the middle and the left. It depends on the group of friends.

Now instead of just querying the goddamn database, a one line fucking SQL statement, I have to deal with the user team

Exactly, you understand very well the purpose of microservices. You can submit a patch if you need that feature now.

Funnily enough I'm the technical lead of the team that handles the user service in an insurance company.

Due to direct access to our data without consulting us, we're getting legal issues as people were using addresses to guess where people lived instead of using our endpoints.

I guess some people really hate the validation that service layers have.

En même temps, pas très malin d'utiliser le dog whistle <<du fleuve jusqu'à la mer>>.

Ce qui sous entend au pire un génocide et au mieux la situation des juifs de l'Algérie après la libération.

Assez surpris que LFI l'ait accepté. Après les républicains ont bien Meyer Habib.

La Russie a fait tout ce qu'elle a pu pour éviter la guerre en essayant de menacer ses voisins pour éviter qu'ils rejoignent l'OTAN ?

Surtout que ces menaces n'ont pas arrêté après l'invasion de la Crimée. l'Ukraine a le droit de former les alliances qu'elle veut, surtout pour se défendre d'un envahisseur qui ne veut pas arrêter.

Paie ta propagande Russe.

Le gouvernement avait mis en place une interdiction de ventes d'armes plus stricte en nouvelle Calédonie.

Cette interdiction a été supprimé par le gouvernement local en 2011.

Évidemment que le gouvernement ne désire pas cette situation, ça provoque de l'instabilité. C'est comme dire que l'OAS a aidé la France en Algérie.

Abstract:

Work on scaling laws has found that large language models (LMs) show predictable improvements to overall loss with increased scale (model size, training data, and compute). Here, we present evidence for the claim that LMs may show inverse scaling, or worse task performance with increased scale, e.g., due to flaws in the training objective and data. We present empirical evidence of inverse scaling on 11 datasets collected by running a public contest, the Inverse Scaling Prize, with a substantial prize pool. Through analysis of the datasets, along with other examples found in the literature, we identify four potential causes of inverse scaling: (i) preference to repeat memorized sequences over following in-context instructions, (ii) imitation of undesirable patterns in the training data, (iii) tasks containing an easy distractor task which LMs could focus on, rather than the harder real task, and (iv) correct but misleading few-shot demonstrations of the task. We release the winning datasets at https://inversescaling.com/data to allow for further investigation of inverse scaling. Our tasks have helped drive the discovery of U-shaped and inverted-U scaling trends, where an initial trend reverses, suggesting that scaling trends are less reliable at predicting the behavior of larger-scale models than previously understood. Overall, our results suggest that there are tasks for which increased model scale alone may not lead to progress, and that more careful thought needs to go into the data and objectives for training language models.

Hyena Hierarchy seems to aim to be a drop-in replacement for attention : https://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.10866.pdf

It looks good on paper, but I haven't been able to find anybody using it in a model. Does anyone have an example of a code or implementation ? Is there really a big improvement on long context lengths ?
