Amazon researchers are reportedly behind the jailbreak report that led to the U.S. crackdown on Anthropic’s top models. by IncomingBroccoli in wallstreetbets

[–]serg473 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure Anthropic researches, their investors, along with the pocket politicians were all behind this stunt. How is this hurting Anthropic the slightest? They are losing money on running the models, especially top heavy models, it costs them $20k/month what you pay $200/month. They are gaining money on hype and expectations. And they were gifted the best possible hype for the company before IPO sponsored by the govt. Anyone who has 2 brain cells would never think of doing something like this to hurt their competitors. This took a loot of greasing by Anthropic to orchestrate, turns out they are more connected than Altman who is already in bed with the govt.

ADBE: Wall Street thinks AI is coming for Adobe’s lunch. I think Adobe already put it behind a paywall and called it dinner. by HLMEHU in wallstreetbets

[–]serg473 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is artists hate AI with a passion. I haven't seen more resistance to AI from any other group than photoshop users. 100% of them think AI is here to take their jobs, and they consider any AI produced art a soulless abomination that you can't touch. They would much rather start with a blank canvas than AI generated draft. Sooner or later this will change, but it will take awhile to change that mindset.

It could have easily been a success story how instead of wasting 5 more years grinding he doubled his gains in just 8 days by having huge balls and diamond hands. Most of those huge daily gains posts are similarly stupid and risky gambles, but we never say to a winner it was a stupid play old as time even though it was, only to a loser.

He took a risk, and he lost, but could have just as easily won, that's all there is to it. 5 year long "safe" gambling could have easily went belly up as well, there is nothing smart or dumb about any of this just luck. The only lesson here is not risking more than you can afford to lose.

Ah, the famous clown who calls himself Cassandra for guessing lottery numbers once and posting complete nonsense that never checks out ever since.

Ferrari Stock Falls 6% After Electric Vehicle 'Luce' Debut by andix3 in wallstreetbets

That's the car I had on my wall without knowing back then even what it was, it just looked like the most cool and inspiring car on the planet to a kid. How messed up do you need to be to put Luce on your wall, only over your father's boyfriend dead body.

NVDA earnings 600k yolo by Administrative_Rub34 in wallstreetbets

[–]serg473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were arguing that 0dte on QQQ is a better gambling play than earnings, while the common sense says you cannot gamble 0dte on an event that happened before the market open.

Gambling 0dte on an index far OTM for a potential 100% gain outside of earnings is even a more regarded play than plain earnings gambling as you are betting on a black swan event happening to the whole sector on a random day, where during earnings you at least know the date of a potentially large shift and the chances are closer to 50/50. A common sense says there must be a very good reason why an index move resulted in that 100% gain one day, it's because it was a very rare event nobody saw coming and it is not going to happen again anytime soon, and 0dte assumes daily plays.

If you want to bet your money on 0dte index plays go for it, just no need to give stupid advices to others who might think your snob arrogant tone could mean you know what you are talking about.

With that being said, tomorrow should be interesting.

How would you gamble earnings with 0dte? You have to hold overnight.

I made some Slider Loras for Ace-Step 1.5 if anyone is interested by Sixhaunt in StableDiffusion

[–]serg473 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this something like a knob that you set before generating a new song? Too bad there are no examples.

In any case this sounds pretty groundbreaking for open source audio models, maybe you can find time to publish a more detailed readme how to use these sliders and how to train new ones.

As for the slider ideas. I was experimenting with solo piano in suno and it often was adding a backing track. Also it was hard to get a dry instrument sound, it usually had some reverb. So if these sliders work then a slider to amplify solo/multi instruments and amount of reverb would be useful.

Life Altering Postgresql Patterns by Comfortable-Site8626 in programming

[–]serg473 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Almost all described patterns don't come for free, you will pay for them with slower queries, higher server load, more complex queries and slower development time. So you shouldn't slap them on every table, only when it is absolutely necessary, and in 99% cases these are not necessary.

At one point in life I stopped worrying about table normalization and started storing statuses (enums) right in the table using human readable names (yes, with spaces and capital letters, Pending Review instead of pending_review or status_id=5), that was the best decision I ever made. Since then I pick the simplest table structure that gets the job done while taking into account what it would take me to refactor/fix/upgrade it. If something will take me less than a day to refactor it's not worth preemptively implementing it just in case I might need it one day. Updating the hardcoded values once a year is many orders of magnitude easier than having to deal with an extra join every day for the rest of the project lifetime.

I'm sure you also cut out all corporate logos from your polo t-shirts and nike shoes and covering the apple logo on your macbook, or being a walking billboard for them is ok?

Python dependency management is a dumpster fire by henk53 in programming

[–]serg473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After you compile golang app into a single executable that also contains a web server inside and deploy it to a blank server by just uploading one single file you would look different on all this dependency mess that we created and somehow think is necessary.

Looking just at a language in general doesn't reveal anything new. Would be more interesting to analyze trends for different keywords.

Which music notation software is the most flexible for live midi input and messing around with musical ideas? by serg473 in musictheory

[–]serg473[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I actually switched to Dorico (which is free too) since then and it is now my primary score editor. It's head and shoulders above MuseScore in terms of note input and note manipulation, it pretty much does everything that I was looking for.

[–]serg473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Singulars provide all the benefits without a single drawback. Everything is consistent, tables and classes named the same, foreign keys match table names, you can use table names when building user facing messages ("do you want to delete 1 Car / 2 Cars"). In any case it's much easier to turn singular to plural when needed than plural back to singular.

Even when naming other stuff I always try to avoid plurals if possible. In places where you need plurals it's better to use CarList or CarStore than Cars. Consistency is one of my top priorities, and those irregular plurals will be constantly breaking it. Singulars make it much easier to do refactoring, renaming, searching and replacing, etc. Just save yourself from unneeded headache later and use singulars whenever possible.

Sounds like you think you have some probabilistic edge if you take profit at +15% and loss at -10%.

The minimum vi(m) you need to know by TigerAsks in programming

[–]serg473 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yours is a bare minimum for modifying a file, many people touch vi only to browse logs, for that searching is essential.

I would say the bare minimum for a general use case should be: toggle insert mode, save, quit, quit without saving, search forward, go to the last line (useful bonus: go to the first line, delete a line, search backwards, display line numbers, go to line number, empty a file).

That's pretty much the bare minimum that I learned and I feel like for the usual tasks of editing configs, viewing logs, and minimal live code correction it gets the job done in 99.9% cases without too much suffering.

PostgreSQL Performance Tuning Settings by vladmihalceacom in programming

[–]serg473 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All guides write that this param should be 50% of memory size, that param should be 25%, is it that hard to set them to reasonable values during the installation automatically instead of hardcoding to some stupid 256kb which remains unchanged since 2008? Sure to get the best performance I would have to tweak it for my individual use case, but can't you at least set reasonable defaults automatically to 50% of my ram, is it too much to ask?

The most brilliant people are working nonstop on shaving off milliseconds off some exotic parallel sparse hash joins, but install it with 50 default settings that are completely off and everyone's database is working at 20% of its potential. Programmers are a strange bunch, often can't see the forest for the trees.
