In the first lecture, Abelson says Computer Science is neither a science nor is it really about computers. Considering the current ML paradigm, maybe CS has finally earned its name as a science.
I wonder how much they can innovate on the chip design frontier by using internal models. They’re certainly incentivized to work on this but what’s funny is Nvidia’s investment will probably be paying for a part of this.
Its a proclamation, not an executive order. This is important to keep in mind because Congress granted explicit statutory authorization to the President in the Immigration and Nationality Act 212(f) and is unlikely to be cut down by the courts for this reason:
"Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."
Also interestingly, it seems to only explicitly impose restrictions on entry into the US. But most visa holders are already in the country, and atleast according to this proclamation, they'd be unaffected.
I don't see your point, the section describes a restriction on "entry into the United States". Most H1b visa holders are already in the US so this doesn't apply to them.
Except lots of people travel outside of the US for tourism, business, to see family, due to family emergencies, or - critically for H1Bs - to renew their visa.
Doesn't matter since the EB1A requires a separate assessment that is not tied to the underlying status. But between the two, because of the inability to travel on an O-1 visa while in the last stage of the green card process, the H-1B is slightly better.
I asked this question in the first place because I heard/read that an EB1A application is a little more likely to be accepted if you already possess an O-1 visa. The reasoning behind this being the similarity in the eligibility requirements for the O-1 and EB1A applications make them more “compatible”.
It’s not true. There are two steps to EB-1A: the statutory criteria, functionally identical to the O-1, and a final merits determination where the examiner evaluates the totality of evidence to determine if you belong to the small percentage at the top of your field. This is a far higher bar than O-1. Additionally, each petition before USCIS is evaluated independently, except for subsequent O-1 petitions with substantially similar facts. In such cases, USCIS policy and the APA’s prohibition on arbitrary and capricious action generally require approval absent extraordinary circumstances.
Yea that’s not gonna work, you have to export it for it to become part of your shell’s environment and be passed down to subprocesses.
You could however wrap the export variable and codex command in a script and just call that. This way the variable would only be part of that script’s environment.
I know popular sentiment is writing compilers is hard but not simple ones like this one without optimizations. Basic stages like lexing, parsing, building AST, and code gen aren’t conceptually difficult, just a lot code to churn out.
Though I’ll admit LLMs have been weirdly good at regex.
Well you’re saying this because you’re probably already familiar with the subject. I remember learning about writing your own compiler for the first time and it took me many hours to write the most simple lexer and fully understand it. And now an LLM can write that to my exact specific in minutes instead of hours. To me that’s quite a breakthrough.
