Australian Bureau of Meteorology: hold my beer

> The truth of the matter, though, is that the Rust community seems to want to take a different approach to concurrent data access.

Not knowing anything about development of the kernel, does this kind of thing create a two tier Linux development experience?

Not sure if it introduces a tiered experience or not. But reading the article it appears that the Rust devs advocated for an api that is clearer in it's semantics with the tradeoff that now understanding how it interacts with C code requires understanding two APIs. How this shakes out in practice remains to be seen.

Advocating for an API with clearer semantics has, afaict, been most of the actual work of integrating Rust into the kernel.

That is my understanding from the outside as well. The core question here should, I think, be whether the adoption and spread of clearer semantics via Rust is worth the potential for confusion and misunderstandings at the boundaries between C and Rust. From the article it appears that this specific instance actually resulted in identifying issues in the usage of the C api's here that are geting scrutiny and fixes as a result. That would indicate the introduction of Rust is causing the trend line to go in the correct direction in at least this instance.

That's been largely my experience of RIIR over years of work in numerous contexts: attempting to encode invariants in the type system results in identifying semantic issues. over and over.

edit to add: and I'm not talking about compilation failures so much as design problems. when the meaning of a value is overloaded, or when there's a "you must do Y after X and never before" and then you can't write equivalent code in all cases, and so on. "but what does this mean?" becomes the question to answer.

Is some kind of MoE or routing (but for image models obviously), depending on the prompt ask, a possible solve?

Feels like this is AI replacing whole categories before said category can adapt to the new landscape

Is this a haiku? Kind of answers itself

Real estate was at one point 25-30% of Chinese GDP. AI is not anywhere close, at least not yet.

Just Nvidia has a larger market cap than all German public companies combined.

Just Nvidia.

But much less revenue I suspect? Looks like a bubble, smells like a bubble, it's a bubble

You could argue changes to MDM strategy is indicative of new threat vectors appearing

Yeah, it’s called regulation and consumer protection.

What a time to be alive

I’m building a custom vocalist/DSP AI. I’ve never built any kind of neural net beyond a toy demo, but I’ve been programming for ~25 odd years.

Think like ACE Studio, but I’m going much less for pitch performance and much more for clarity, expressiveness and human realism.

Very much at the data labeling phase but a little bit beyond the crude initial experiment phase.
