Your first two paragraphs seem to rail against a philosophical conclusion made by the authors by virtue of carrying out the Turing test. Something like “this is evidence of machine consciousness” for example. I don’t really get the impression that any such claim was made, or that more education in epistemology would have changed anything.
In a world where GPT4 exists, the question of whether one person can be fooled by one chatbot in one conversation is long since uninteresting. The question of whether specific models can achieve statistically significant success is maybe a bit more compelling, not because it’s some kind of breakthrough but because it makes a generalized claim.
Re: your edit, Turing explicitly puts forth the imitation game scenario as a practicable proxy for the question of machine intelligence, “can machines think?”. He directly argues that this scenario is indeed a reasonable proxy for that question. His argument, as he admits, is not a strongly held conviction or rigorous argument, but “recitations tending to produce belief,” insofar as they are hard to rebut, or their rebuttals tend to be flawed. The whole paper was to poke at the apparent differences between (a futuristic) machine intelligence and human intelligence. In this way, the Turing test is indeed a measure of intelligence. It’s not to say that a machine passing the test is somehow in possession of a human-like mind or has reached a significant milestone of intelligence.
I don’t think the methodology is the issue with this one. 500 people can absolutely be a legitimate sample size. Under basic assumptions about the sample being representative and the effect size being sufficiently large you do not need more than a couple hundred participants to make statistically significant observations. 54% being close to 50% doesn’t mean the result is inconclusive. With an ideal sample it means people couldn’t reliably differentiate the human from the bot, which is presumably what the researchers believed is of interest.
Hom functors exist for locally small categories, which is just to say that the hom classes are sets. The distinction can be ignored often because local smallness is a trivial consequence of how the category is defined, but it’s not generally true
I don’t really query, but it’s good enough at code generation to be occasionally useful. If it can spit out 100 lines of code that is generally reasonable, it’s faster to adjust the generated code than to write it all from scratch. More generally, it’s good for generating responses whose content and structure are easy to verify (like a question you already know the answer to), with the value being in the time saved rather than the content itself.
Before I blocked the instance I had nothing but miserable interactions with Hexbear users, and it had nothing to do with political opinions.
There’s a search field on the front page. The rest is blank because I used the (default) “exact match” option, so the rest of the page is (by random chance) filled with spaces. The search function presumably uses knowledge about the algorithm used to generate the pages to locate a given string in a reasonable amount of time, rather than naively looking through each page.

I don’t see the duality
Is the duality statement meant to be true in a technical sense?
Haven’t heard of 0x10c since 2012. Shame it was canceled, I love Elite and would love more games in its niche
All cloud providers will support budget notifications. That doesn’t do much good when you shoot past the budget in a short timespan. I set a Google cloud budget of $20/month and enabled a Tensorboard instance, which had no observable indication that it cost anything except the base cost of the VM, and got notified that I was $280 over budget the next day. Apparently there was an upfront $300/month/user fee for Tensorboard. (Several months later they changed the pricing model to $10 GiB/month with no user fee.)
Obfuscation is meaningless. It’s public info or it’s not. In this case it’s necessarily public
Not really a substantial opinion, but I have little hope that replacing a fairly well established Rust codebase with a brand new Java one will do much in terms of increasing contribution.
It could still be rust. Code is always the easy part. Design and organization and funding are hard
Not sure I understand. How could there possibly be a solution? Isn’t this an inherent problem with federation? You can’t un-share information
If you have a lot of semantic breakpoints (like the end of a concept) that don’t line up with syntactic breakpoints (like the end of a method or expression body) your code probably needs to be refactored. If you don’t, then automatic code formatting is probably all you need.
I understand… In a programming environment 99.999% of tabs aren’t after any other text.
Err, why would there ever be something besides a tab before a tab? Are we doing ASCII art?
Yes, with Iosevka font
